Xie Manyu took part in a movie set against the backdrop of O continent mythology, titled "Elf Queen."
The female lead she portrayed was of mixed heritage, half elf and half Eastern person.
They had reached the scene in the filming where the female lead enters the Elf Clan and meets the Elf Princess.
One of the scenes involved the female lead and the Elf Princess working together to fight against the invaders of the Elf Clan.
But during the shoot, the actress playing the Elf Princess accidentally shot the arrow in the wrong direction.
The arrow struck Xie Manyu, heading straight for her heart.
Normally, the arrows were props and couldn't really hurt anyone.
But the problem was that the arrow that had been shot had been switched for a real one.
Struck by the arrow, Xie Manyu collapsed on the spot and has just been taken to the hospital, putting the whole shoot on hold.
