Lord Yan, The Little Ancestor Has Fallen Off The Horse Again!-Chapter 517: Here to Kill Her

If she hadn’t misseen just now, then the gun was aimed at her. Perhaps it wasn’t just a reflection in the mirror; she would have been dead already.

Who wanted to kill her?!

She looked around at the actors and crew members; they hadn’t noticed any danger and continued to be engrossed in filming.

The director frowned, "What’s happening, why has Yingtao stopped moving?"

It was clear to the other actors as well. Since Ruan Yingtong was the main character in this gunfight scene, if she didn’t make her move, they couldn’t continue, given that all the routes were visually planned.

"Cut!" the director yelled, giving Ruan Yingtong some relief.

Sun Li looked at Ruan Yingtong through the camera lens, frowning slightly. They called cut; why was she still hiding?

"Yingtao, come here," the director called.

Ruan Yingtong hid behind a mound, waving her hands vigorously.

Noticing something unusual about her, the director and Sun Li thought she might be injured and instantly ran up the hill to check.

"Don’t come over!"

Ruan Yingtong shouted loudly, just as a gunshot rang out, and Sun Li was hit by a bullet.

Blood splattered everywhere, particularly on the director walking beside Sun Li, who could distinctly feel the warm blood splashing onto his face as Sun Li fell directly in front of him.

The assistant director bellowed, "Who fired that shot?! Didn’t we call a halt?"

What was happening?!

"It’s a real gun, there’s an assassin! Everyone, hide behind that hill over there, quick!"

Ruan Yingtong shouted loudly and swiftly dragged Sun Li behind the mound, with the director quickly following her, breathing heavily.

"How terrifying! Why is there a real gun!"

The director still hadn’t processed everything, his heart feeling like it was about to leap out of his chest.

The director, seeing blood continuously seeping from Sun Li’s chest and feeling a chill down his spine, realized the crew also seemed to sense this wasn’t just acting. Those close enough could clearly see the blood spraying out of Sun Li’s chest.

In a moment, everyone scrambled in different directions.

Ruan Yingtong watched them and bellowed, "Take cover, don’t run south, hide behind the hill on the opposite side! It’s a sniper! Don’t let him see you! Hurry!"

The director, seeing her calm and composed face, was momentarily lost in thought—this role was like it was tailor-made for her!

Another round of gunfire rang out, and another crew member fell, plunging the scene into chaos.

"Yingtao, how is she doing, will she die?"

The director, not knowing why, felt much calmer seeing her.

Ruan Yingtong couldn’t attend to others; she could only focus on saving Sun Li in front of her first.

"Not the left side, if we can get medical help in time, there might still be a chance." Ruan Yingtong looked at Sun Li, spitting blood, her eyes reddening.

"Sister Sun, hang in there, I’ll stop the bleeding for you."

Ruan Yingtong had been with Yun Yue since she was young and was a member of the Golden Net; she knew some firearm wound treatments and emergency measures.

But she was afraid Sun Li wouldn’t last that long.

"Director, do you have a phone?"

"Yes, yes, I’m calling the police right now," the director just remembered, but as soon as he pulled out his phone and dialed the emergency number, he grew frantic: "I don’t even know if there’s a signal."

Usually, it was hard to get through on the phone; if they couldn’t make the call, they were indeed at the mercy of being shot.

"Give me the phone." Ruan Yingtong snatched his phone, instructing him to press on Sun Li’s wound, her hands covered in fresh red blood, and dialed Yun Yue’s number.

"Hey, Yueyue, North Wilderness belongs to Xiao Chen, right? Can you ask him to send someone from North Wilderness to rescue us? I’m being targeted by a sniper on the film set, and Sister Sun and several crew members have been shot..."

After giving the address, Ruan Yingtong immediately hung up the phone and handed it to him.

"She’s got blood filling her chest and lungs; we need to drain it."

Looking at Sun Li, Ruan Yingtong felt a sinking feeling inside. Without any medical equipment, she’d soon suffocate.

"We really need a tube right now."

"A tube? There’s one over there..." The director pointed towards the film site, "But it’s impossible to get there..."

That was where the sniper was. To show oneself was undoubtedly a death sentence.

"I can do it." Hidden behind another hill, Tian Lei called out. He was the closest, and he was confident he could dodge the sniper’s bullets.

"Tian Lei?" Ruan Yingtong looked at him.

The director quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, he can do it. He was a special forces soldier before he was injured and discharged. Trust him!"

Tian Lei nodded at Ruan Yingtong, "Alright, I’ll cover you."

She knew the sniper was targeting her. As long as she drew his attention, it would be enough.

Tian Lei nodded slightly, choosing to trust her.

From her actions just now, she seemed to be trained, though he wondered how she had spotted the sniper earlier.

He watched Ruan Yingtong take off her hat and then lift her gun. He quickly ran toward the field.

Bang!

Ruan Yingtong’s hat was shot through and fell to the ground with a hole in it.

"It’s terrifying, so terrifying! How could this happen?" The director, watching the bullet whiz past overhead, was dripping in cold sweat.

Who knew filming a gunfight scene could attract a real assassin?

"This sniper must be targeting me," Ruan Yingtong said with a cold expression, apologizing as she looked at him, "I’m sorry, Director, for getting you involved."

"Targeting you?" The director was dumbfounded, "You’re just a second-tier actress; who would hire an assassin to kill you!"

The director couldn’t comprehend it.

Ruan Yingtong gave a wry smile, "Maybe they’re after me, not as an entertainer."

But as Sakura, ranked tenth by Golden Net.

"Is there a difference?" The director collapsed weakly onto the ground, "Either way, it’s you they’re trying to kill."

"Did you offend some powerful person?"

The director thought he was seasoned, but he had never experienced anything like this!

Not even TV dramas dared to shoot such scenes!

"Maybe," Ruan Yingtong looked at Tian Lei who had found the tube. She had to cover him once more to give him a chance to get across.

From the direction the bullets were coming, she could determine they were coming from a 20-degree angle southeast. She grabbed a handful of sand and signaled to Tian Lei.

Tian Lei nodded.

Immediately, Ruan Yingtao threw the handful of sand into the air, blocking the sniper’s view, and bought Tian Lei a moment to run over.

"Here, the tube you wanted," he said, his serious eyes fixed on Ruan Yingtong.

Ruan Yingtong looked at a pen holder and without hesitation, thrust it into Sun Li’s wound. Instantly, fresh blood sprayed onto her face and onto the two people beside her.

She breathed a sigh of relief, "That should keep her out of immediate danger, but she’s lost a lot of blood. We need to transfuse blood quickly."

No clue when the rescue would arrive, and facing off with this sniper wasn’t a solution; they had to find a way to deal with him.
