Chapter 661 - Yes, we are Internet friends (2/2)

“I feel that this role is really suited to me. Therefore, you can leave this task to me,” Gao Moumou said as he patted his chest.

“…” Song Shuhang.

Venerable White took the headphones off his head and came over, asking out of curiosity, “Are you guys talking about the movie? How is the writing of the script going?”

Great Master Swallow Cloud replied, “We lived up to Senior Bai’s expectations. Yesterday, little friend Gao Moumou and I stayed up all night. We finished writing down the story and even adapted it into a script.”

After hearing this much, Venerable White’s eyes immediately lit up. “You finished the script? Where is it? Can I take a look at it?”

Song Shuhang lifted the laptop in his hands and said, “The script and the original story of the movie are all stored in here. Since we are all here, we can take a look at the story together and choose the actors for the various roles.”

❄️❄️❄️

Song Shuhang opened the original story of the movie, and the group started reading the plot while discussing the matter about the actors.

The following characters were the ones making their appearance in the first act of the story.

The first one to appear was the main character, Ling Ye, a disciple of the Immaterial Cloud Sect. It was already decided that Venerable White would play this role.

Then was the first male supporting role, Senior Brother Gao Sheng. Song Shuhang was the temporary main candidate to play this role.

Next was the first female lead, Big Senior Sister Murong Hua.

Afterward was the elder of the Immaterial Cloud Sect in charge of supervising the martial arts compet.i.tion in which the various disciples were partic.i.p.ating, the Eight-Armed Sword Sage. He would appear quite a few times in the later stages of the story as well.

Then, there was a certain number of ordinary disciples that would act as spectators, as well as three of Senior Brother Gao Sheng’s lackeys.

Venerable White asked, “Who do you think should play the role of the big senior sister?”

“Me, me!” A voice suddenly echoed. Song Shuhang turned his head around and discovered that True Monarch White Crane was currently standing behind them. Su Clan’s Sixteen, Daoist Priest Horizon, and Yu Jiaojiao also came over alongside it.

True Monarch White Crane had an expectant look on its face. It had read the script as well and knew that this senior sister was going to be the first love of the main character, Venerable White in this case. It felt that only itself could play this role!

“White Crane, you are not suited for this role,” Venerable White said. If White Crane wanted to perform the role of the senior sister, it had to change its gender to that of a female first—only then it would have an opportunity.

True Monarch White Crane’s spirit was immediately crushed.

Song Shuhang held his chin and pondered for a moment. He felt that Immortal Fairy Bie Xue would have been very suitable for this role. Unfortunately, she had already left the Jiangnan area to get her ‘Immortal Feast’ ready. She wanted to borrow this grand feast of the world of cultivators to have a showdown with Venerable White.

Thereupon, the people present looked at the sole normal female cultivator, Su Clan’s Sixteen.

Su Clan’s Sixteen faintly sighed and said, “I feel that I’m not too suited for this role, either. I think that someone with a more mature appearance should play the role of the senior sister.”

Although she was reluctant to admit it, her appearance couldn’t be really regarded ‘mature’. But it didn’t matter; she would grow up one day!

“In that case, let’s note down this role and send it in the group to see who is willing to play it,” Venerable White said.

Song Shuhang said, “Now, the last role of the first act… who is going to be the Eight-Armed Sword Sage?”

Venerable White replied, “Eight-armed? In that case, he alone is worthy.”

Song Shuhang asked in puzzlement, “Who?”

Su Clan’s Sixteen replied, “Senior True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple. He practices a magical technique that allows him to grow eight arms, and he is a powerful swordsman as well.”

“In that case, let’s ask Senior Ancient Lake Temple and see if he’s interested in playing this role,” Song Shuhang said while taking notes on the notebook.

Just as he finished speaking, he noticed that his friend Gao Moumou was looking at him strangely.

Gao Moumou had started to wonder if his friend Shuhang had caught some disease.

Earlier, when Song Shuhang called Venerable White ‘Senior Bai’, he could somewhat accept it. Although it was a bit strange to call someone ‘senior’ in this era, Senior White’s charm was simply too great, and Gao Moumou subconsciously neglected this appellation.

But later, he discovered that the guy that wanted to play the role of the senior sister was called ‘White Crane’.

The pet.i.te girl was apparently called ‘Su Clan’s Sixteen’.

While they were drinking yesterday, he felt that there was something wrong with the way Song Shuhang was addressing his friends. But since he was drunk, he didn’t think too much about this matter.

But now that he recalled their names, he felt that they were all rather weird!

Then, there was this ‘True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple’ that Song Shuhang himself mentioned.

This name was cringey enough to make him blush with shame.

Song Shuhang needed but a glance to guess what his friend was thinking. He was so absorbed in the discussion earlier that he forgot that Gao Moumou was still here.

“Gao Moumou, don’t misunderstand. These are the nicknames we use in the group,” Song Shuhang said. “Earlier, they all called me ‘Stressed by a Mountain of Books’.”

Gao Moumou immediately understood what was going on. “Are you guys… Internet friends?”

“Yes, sort of,” Song Shuhang said.

“So that’s how it was.” Gao Moumou was convinced. No wonder they used such shameful forms of address. They were Internet friends!

If they were Internet friends, it all made sense.

Song Shuhang continued, “Let’s continue. Who will play the role of Feng Chuanzi, the man that will end up marrying the senior sister?”

“If he will marry Senior Sister Murong Hua, isn’t it better to find a husband and wife to perform these two roles?” Su Clan’s Sixteen said.
