A short comedy in an ancient Chinese courtyard: a stern swordswoman chops scallions with a flying sword — video

Prompt

【Style】Pure classical xianxia deadpan reversal comedy, photorealistic cinematic texture, refined commercial film visuals, fast short-video-style narrative pacing, but restrained, understated performances with no exaggeration. The first half creates a solemn xianxia atmosphere of “profound swordsmanship”; the second half reveals the outcome to deliver a deadpan comic reversal. Take inspiration from the staging of classic physical comedy: the humor should rely on clear spatial relationships, advance setup, character reactions, and a final calm line that lands the punchline. Maintain a strictly ancient Chinese setting throughout; no modern objects, modern clothing, modern buildings, modern language, or modern sound effects. Keep to one clear primary action per shot; do not pile on complex behavior.

【Duration】10 seconds, three-shot structure, 2 people on screen, 16:9 landscape.

【Scene】A quiet courtyard behind the mountain gate kitchen in the early morning. Bamboo shadows fall across the gray stone paving. Keep only a mud stove, a wooden worktable, an iron wok with steam rising from it, a bunch of fresh scallions, hanging dried herbs, and neatly stacked firewood in the scene. Every shot must maintain the same courtyard, the same mud stove, the same worktable, the same iron wok, and the same bunch of scallions, with stable and clearly defined spatial positions.

【Characters】
Character A: sword immortal elder sister @图片1. East Asian woman, 25–30 years old, oval face, naturally fair skin, dark almond-shaped eyes, long black hair half-up, secured with a jade hairpin; tall and slender. Her face, hairstyle, makeup, body proportions, complete outfit, shoes, accessories, and clothing colors must strictly match the reference image. Always wears white embroidered silk hanfu with layered wide sleeves, a light-colored sash, silver waist ornaments, and white cloth boots. Cool, confident, and restrained, with a hint of affected, profound composure.
Character B: junior sister @图片2. East Asian woman, 20–25 years old, lively, round face, braided black hair, petite build. Her face, hairstyle, body proportions, clothing, shoes, and accessories must strictly match the reference image. Always wears teal-green linen hanfu, a dark cloth belt, a plain hair ribbon, and black cloth shoes. She sincerely admires her senior sister, but speaks calmly and naturally; her final punchline should have a deadpan comedic quality.

【Shot 1】0–3s, wide establishing shot, steady slow dolly in.
A quiet courtyard behind the mountain gate kitchen in the early morning, with bamboo shadows falling across the gray stone paving. Keep only the mud stove, wooden worktable, steaming iron wok, scallions, dried herbs, and firewood in the frame.
The same sword immortal elder sister @图片1 stands fully in frame from shoes to head on a slightly raised stone platform, hands behind her back, chin slightly lifted, with a composed posture.
The same silver flying sword gracefully traces one complete arc around her, leaving only a restrained pale-blue light trail.
The same junior sister @图片2 stands beside the worktable, looking up at her with sincere admiration.
Solemn guqin music, distant birdsong, and a faint sword-energy hum.
Show only one primary action in this shot: the flying sword traces one complete arc around her.

【Shot 2】3–6s, 50mm medium dialogue shot.
The same junior sister @图片2 looks up and asks, with accurate Mandarin lip sync and natural, clear delivery:
“What sword technique is that, Senior Sister?”
The same sword immortal elder sister @图片1 raises two fingers and calmly replies:
“Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin.”
As soon as she finishes speaking, the same silver flying sword suddenly accelerates toward the same wooden worktable.
Show the burst of sword energy only with layered light trails; absolutely do not create multiple physical flying swords—the same single sword must remain the only one throughout.
The background must remain the same courtyard, the same worktable, the same iron wok, and the same bunch of scallions throughout.
Show only one primary action in this shot: the flying sword suddenly accelerates toward the worktable.
【Shot 3】6–10s, close-up reveal followed by an extreme close-up, clean hard cut.
The same flying sword quickly and precisely slices the same bunch of scallions into evenly sized rings, and all the scallion rings fall neatly into the same steaming iron wok. The physical effects of the sword, scallion rings, steam, and light trails must look realistic and natural.
The grand xianxia music stops instantly.
The same junior sister @图片2 lowers her gaze to the wok and, expressionless, calmly delivers the punchline:
“That’s enough scallions. The noodles aren’t in yet.”
Then hard cut to an extreme close-up of the same sword immortal elder sister @图片1. She still tries to maintain her expert composure, but one eyebrow twitches slightly and her smug smile slowly fades, leaving a brief, awkward silence.
End with one crisp strike on a wooden fish drum.
【Performance Requirements】The first half must genuinely convey “a master demonstrating superior swordsmanship”; the sword immortal elder sister must not look comical too early. The comic reversal comes from “Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin” ultimately being nothing more than chopping scallions. The junior sister’s punchline must be natural, calm, and restrained, creating a deadpan comedic effect. Convey the sword immortal elder sister’s embarrassment through micro-expressions: focus on a slight eyebrow twitch and her smile disappearing; do not use exaggerated, broad expressions.
【Technical Requirements】In Seedance 2.0, prioritize reference consistency, stability of both characters, spatial continuity, Mandarin lip sync, and clear execution of actions. Entire video in 16:9 landscape, strictly 10 seconds total, photorealistic live-action, natural cinematic early-morning lighting, no on-screen subtitles, clean hard cuts. Stable character faces, consistent clothing throughout, clear movement relationships; no character teleportation, background drift, or disappearing props.
【Sound Effects】Solemn guqin music, distant birdsong, faint sword-energy hum, a crisp sound as the flying sword slices the scallions, the soft patter of scallion rings falling into the wok, a faint sound of steam from the iron wok, an awkward silent pause for the final half-second, then end with one clear strike on a wooden fish drum.
【Negative Prompt】blurry, bad quality, low quality, low resolution, noisy, JPEG artifacts, watermark, text, subtitles, caption, error; deformed, mutated, bad anatomy, poorly drawn hands, bad composition, out of frame, disfigured; inconsistent character, changing clothes, changing hairstyle, face morphing, unstable face, background shift, glitching cuts, disappearing props; duplicated sword, extra swords, multiple physical flying swords, broken spatial continuity, wrong lip sync, modern objects, modern clothes, modern architecture, modern sound effects

【风格】纯古风仙侠冷面反转喜剧，电影级写实质感，精致商业电影画面，短视频式快速叙事节奏，但整体表演克制，不浮夸。前半段营造“高深剑法”的庄重仙侠氛围，后半段通过结果揭晓形成冷面反转笑点。借鉴经典肢体喜剧的场面调度方式，让笑点依靠清楚的空间关系、前置铺垫、人物反应、以及最后一句平静补刀完成。全片严格保持中国古代语境，不要任何现代物品、现代服装、现代建筑、现代语言、现代音效。每个镜头只保留一个清晰主要动作，不堆叠复杂行为。

【时长】10 秒，三镜头结构，2 人出镜，16:9 横屏。

【场景】清晨安静的山门后厨庭院。灰色石板地面上落着竹影，场景中只保留一座泥灶、一张木质案台、一口冒着热气的铁锅、一捆新鲜青葱、悬挂的干药草和码放整齐的木柴。所有镜头始终保持同一个庭院、同一座泥灶、同一张案台、同一口铁锅、同一捆青葱，空间方位稳定明确。

【角色】
角色 A：剑仙姐 @图片1。25–30 岁东亚女性，椭圆脸，白皙自然肤色，深色杏眼，黑色长发半挽，以玉簪固定；身材高挑纤细。面部、发型、妆容、身材比例、全套服装、鞋子、饰品和服装颜色严格保持参考图一致。固定穿白色刺绣真丝汉服、分层宽袖、浅色腰封、银色腰饰、白色布靴。气质清冷、自信、克制，带一点故作高深的从容感。
角色 B：师妹 @图片2。20–25 岁东亚女性，圆润灵动的脸，黑发编辫，身材娇小。面部、发型、身材比例、服装、鞋子、饰品严格保持参考图一致。固定穿青绿色亚麻汉服、深色布腰带、素色发带、黑色布鞋。她真诚、崇拜师姐，但表达平静自然，最后补刀要有冷面喜剧感。

【镜头 1】0–3s，全景建立镜头，稳定缓慢推轨。
清晨安静的山门后厨庭院，竹影落在灰色石板地面上。画面中只保留泥灶、木案台、热气铁锅、青葱、干药草和木柴。
同一个剑仙姐 @图片1 从鞋到头完整站在略高的石台上，双手负后，下巴微抬，姿态沉稳。
同一柄银色飞剑围绕她优雅地划过一次完整弧线，只留下克制的淡蓝色剑光拖影。
同一个师妹 @图片2 站在案台旁，真诚而崇拜地抬头观看。
配庄重古琴、远处鸟鸣和轻微剑气嗡鸣。
本镜头只表现一个主要动作：飞剑绕身划过一次完整弧线。

【镜头 2】3–6s，50mm 中景对话镜头。
同一个师妹 @图片2 抬头问，普通话口型准确，自然清晰地说道：
“师姐，这是什么剑法？”
同一个剑仙姐 @图片1 抬起两指，平静回答：
“万剑归宗。”
话音刚落，同一柄银色飞剑突然加速飞向同一张木质案台。
只允许用层叠剑光拖影来表现剑意爆发，绝不复制出多柄实体飞剑，始终只有同一柄飞剑。
背景始终保持同一个庭院、同一张案台、同一口铁锅和同一捆青葱。
本镜头只表现一个主要动作：飞剑突然加速飞向案台。
【镜头 3】6–10s，近景揭晓接极近特写，干净硬切。
同一柄飞剑快速而精准地把同一捆青葱切成大小均匀的葱花圆圈，所有葱花整齐落入同一口冒着热气的铁锅。飞剑、葱花、蒸汽、剑光拖影的物理效果必须真实自然。
恢宏仙侠音乐瞬间停止。
同一个师妹 @图片2 低头看向锅中，面无表情地平静补刀：
“葱花够了，面还没下。”
然后硬切到同一个剑仙姐 @图片1 的极近特写。她仍努力维持高人姿态，但一侧眉毛轻轻抽动，嘴角原本得意的笑容缓慢消失，进入短暂而尴尬的安静停顿。
最后用一声干脆的木鱼敲击收尾。
【表演要求】前半段必须真有“高人施展上乘剑法”的庄重感，剑仙姐不能过早露出滑稽感。反转笑点来自“万剑归宗”最终只是切葱花. 师妹的补刀必须自然、平静、克制，形成冷面喜剧效果。剑仙姐的尴尬靠微表情完成，重点是眉毛轻抽、嘴角笑意消失，不要夸张大幅度表情。
【技术要求】Seedance 2.0 优先优化参考图一致性、双角色稳定、空间连续、普通话口型同步、动作执行清楚。全片 16:9 横屏，严格总时长 10 秒，写实真人，电影感自然清晨光线，不生成画面字幕，使用干净硬切。人物面部稳定，服装全程一致，运动关系明确，禁止人物瞬移，禁止背景漂移，禁止道具消失。
【音效】庄重古琴、远处鸟鸣、轻微剑气嗡鸣、青葱被飞剑切开的利落声、葱花落锅的细碎声、铁锅轻微热气声、最后半秒尴尬安静停顿，再以一声清脆木鱼敲击收尾。
【负面词】blurry, bad quality, low quality, low resolution, noisy, jpeg artifacts, watermark, text, subtitles, caption, error; deformed, mutated, bad anatomy, poorly drawn hands, bad composition, out of frame, disfigured; inconsistent character, changing clothes, changing hairstyle, face morphing, unstable face, background shift, glitching cuts, disappearing props; duplicated sword, extra swords, multiple实体飞剑, broken spatial continuity, wrong lip sync, modern objects, modern clothes, modern architecture, modern sound effects
