Chapter 132: The Great Singer of the Future
Although my voice was not high, it caused the displeasure of the female singer, who stopped singing and looked at me.
"I don't understand music, I just speak my own opinion. I didn't expect someone next to me to agree, "That's it, what are you singing? Go on!" One person applauded, and a group of people followed suit.
The female singer was angry, got up and ran backstage. As soon as she left, four coolly dressed young ladies came up to the stage and started dancing. I lost interest and dragged Xiaoyu back to the bar, where the bearded boss was gone, and now a bartender was making cocktails for customers.
I patted the back of Xiaoyu's hand holding my arm, "You wait for me for a while, I'll go to the bathroom." β
I got up and went to the bathroom, and as I passed through a dimly lit hallway, I heard the female singer yelling at a person, "Why don't you give me money?
"You still want money? You actually talked back to the guests in public, how much impact did it have on me, it's good that I didn't let you lose money, and you still want money, you won't use it from tomorrow onwards. β
"If you don't come, you won't come, who rarely sings in your place. β
"Smack"
With a crisp slap, the female singer turned around and ran out, just in time to meet me.
"Wait. β
I shouted, and she stopped and looked up at me, "What are you going to do?"
"I'm from Galaxy Entertainment, you're very talented in singing, would you like to join us?"
The red handprints on the female singer's face were still very clear, and her eyes were also red, she looked at me in disbelief, "Galaxy Entertainment? β
"Has Lu Miaomiao heard of it?"
The female singer nodded, "But she's not from Galaxy Entertainment?"
"Don't you usually watch the news? Lu Miaomiao is now the president of Galaxy Entertainment. If you go to her, she will say that a person named Zhang Tianyu called you, and she will give you a good treatment. β
Speaking of which, I remembered the song she had just sang, "Did you write that song you just sang?"
She shook her head, "It was my boyfriend who wrote it." β
"He's also a talent and I hope he'll be able to join us at Galaxy Entertainment as well. β
"Thank you for your kindness, he passed away last winter. With that, a tear slipped down the corner of her eye.
"I'm sorry. β
"It doesn't matter, his biggest wish before his death was to hope that his song would be popular all over the world, but I sent his song to many record companies, but there was no response, so I could only sing it myself, hoping that one day it would resonate with others and make this song popular. β
"That's why I just criticized you for singing this song and made you angry, didn't I?"
She nodded slightly, and didn't speak again.
I pulled a pack of tissues out of my pocket and handed it to her, "What's your name?"
"Summer night. She took the tissue, pulled out one, and said thank you.
"It's a nice name, because Galaxy Entertainment is a company that has just been established for a short time, so if you go now, you will be a veteran, and many excellent resources will give priority to you, so I hope you can adjust your mentality and go to Longdu as soon as possible. If you're strapped for cash, I can give you some first. β
"No, no, I still have the money to go to Longdu. β
"I said, why did you go to the toilet for so long?
"Didn't I tell you to wait for me outside?"
Xiaoyu put her displeasure on her face, "What's the matter, it's good to disturb you? You want to go to the toilet, and I have to go to the bathroom too, can't I?"
I smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry to make you laugh, this is my fiancΓ©e, Yubing." Then I said to Xiaoyu, "This is the rising star of Galaxy Entertainment, Summer Night." β
The two shook each other's hands, "Summer Night, you go back and prepare well, I will contact Lu Miaomiao tonight, you can go and find her directly." β
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Zhang. β
Just sent the summer night away, Xiao Yu looked at the weather outside, "The rain has stopped, we have been delayed here for so long, let's go out for a walk!"
The two of us went out of the bar, because it had just rained outside, the gas in our breath was extremely damp, and the whole castle was washed by the heavy rain, and it was spotless, as if we were in a painting, which made people linger. Those who have SLRs use SLRs, and those who don't use mobile phones to take pictures of the beautiful scenery they see in their eyes.
I glanced at my phone, there were still more than two hours before seven o'clock, Xiaoyu and I bought some souvenirs and ate some special snacks, planning to go up to the city wall to take a look and go back, the city wall is not all developed, only the section near the gate, and the rest of the places are guarded by security personnel.
The castle is actually a village built on the island surrounded by huge walls, why is it only open to the public for a short time from eight o'clock in the afternoon to eight o'clock in the evening, and not all the places? Wouldn't that be a huge loss of tourist income? The owner of the castle didn't care, but the inhabitants of the castle didn't seem to have any opinions.
Although I had some doubts in my heart, we came out to have fun, and there was no need to disturb the lives of the locals, so we came according to their requirements.
After shopping for a while, I felt that there was nothing left, so I prepared to go down to gather.
Xiaoyu suddenly felt nauseous again, I took her to the nearest bathroom, and after she entered, I waited for her outside. It started to rain again in the sky, I had to go back to the bathroom, look at myself in the mirror at the sink, the more I looked, the more strange I felt, I simply took out my mobile phone to play for a while, I didn't expect it to turn off automatically, I didn't take the power bank and the charger, I shouted inside, "Xiaoyu, did you bring the charger?"
"No, it should be in the hotel, wait for me for a while, and it will be fine immediately. β
I don't know how long it took, it should have been nearly an hour before Xiaoyu walked out of the bathroom.
"Are you feeling better?"
Xiaoyu nodded, she was a little unsteady when she walked, and her face was a little pale. I hurried over to help her, and it seemed that I would have to find a doctor to give her a good examination when I got back.
When we came out of the bathroom, the street was eerily quiet, except for the sound of raindrops hitting the roof and windows.
"It can't be eight o'clock, right?"
"It's okay, it's also a tourist attraction here, even if it's over, let's fine a little money at most, and let him say a few words at most." β
The two of us walked towards the gate in the rain, and we were met by a group of people in black robes, walking very slowly. Xiaoyu and I hid behind a large wooden box at the same time. The black-robed men walked quietly, without the slightest sound, and they all carried a lit lantern in their hands, and the flames in it swayed as they went, as if they were about to be extinguished at any time.
I whispered to Xiao Yu: "It seems that this Banana Castle is not as simple as it seems, and I am afraid that there will be trouble if I venture out." β
"Why don't we follow and see, what are they going to do?"
"Forget it, let's find a place to shelter from the rain, you're not well, I don't want to have an accident, and when it opens again tomorrow afternoon, we'll go out again." β
Xiaoyu took my arm, "Okay, listen to you." β
The two of us waited for a while, felt that there was no one, and were just about to leave, when two people came over next to us, and we quickly hid again.
A man's voice sounded, "The guard at the gate said just now that there should be two people in the city who haven't gone out, where do you think they will hide?"
A rather hoarse voice replied to him, "No matter where you are, tonight is a big day for our Anning Island, and no one can stop it." β
I looked at Xiaoyu, and Xiaoyu also looked at me, what a big day? Their conversation successfully aroused our curiosity.
In this way, the two of us followed the two black-robed men, and when they entered the bathroom, I asked Xiaoyu to wait for me on the side. I followed in and listened to what they were saying.
They just went to the toilet briefly, and I thought about it and suddenly appeared. Both of them were stunned at the same time, and they both peed on their pants.
"Who are you?"
"What do you mean by big days?"
"You've been following us?"
Two people rushed over at the same time to make a move with me, and one of me was given a knife in the neck, and the two fell to the ground between them.
I took off the black robes of the two of them, walked out of the bathroom, and gave Xiaoyu one, and we both put it on at the same time.
"Were there any accidents just now?"
"No, I wanted to eavesdrop, and they didn't talk when they went in. I had to come out directly and ask them, but I didn't expect the two of them to do something with me, I was afraid that they would call someone, so I reversed each other first. β
"Then the two of us, what should we do?"
At this time, a group of black-robed people came from not far away, and we quickly lowered our heads and pulled our hats forward.
"Those two people over there, the sacrifice is about to start, what are you still inking there?"
The two of us had to walk at the end of the line with the group of black-robed men who came with us, and it seemed that something was destined to happen tonight.
The team moved slowly, and the rain in the sky slowly lightened, but the dark clouds in the sky had not yet dispersed, and the wind had not stopped.
When the two of us followed the team to a place that resembled a small square, there were already several groups of black-robed people here, all of them carrying lanterns, standing there silently, not knowing what they were waiting for.
Suddenly, two strong men carried a huge wooden cross to the center of the square, and after inserting the cross into the hole reserved in the middle of the square, the two stood next to the cross, one left and one right.
An old man with a white beard squeezed out of the crowd, "Have you all arrived?"
Everyone on the field shouted, "It's all together, it's all together, it's all ......"
The old man pressed his hand down, and when there was no sound on the field, the old man said slowly and loudly, "Bring the sacrifice!"
Four men in white robes carried a coffin in the direction of the cross, and everyone took three steps back in unison.
After the coffin was put down, the two white-robed people opened the lid of the coffin, and there was a whining sound from inside, one person writhed wildly in the coffin, and the four people carried the person in the coffin out unmoved, and fixed each other on the cross, and then also divided into left and right, two on one side.
The person in the coffin was wearing a red hood, and his mouth should have been blocked by something, and he could only make a whining sound. Could it be that this is the sacrifice in the mouth of the old man, using a living person as a sacrifice, could it be that this place still lived two thousand years ago?
The old man walked to the cross, came to the person who was carried out of the coffin, reached out and took off the other's hood, although I was far away, but I could see clearly, the moment the hood was taken off, I felt that the person in front of me was familiar, I thought about it carefully, and pointed to the square in surprise, "Isn't this Selis?"
Didn't she come here as a guest? How did she get caught here as a sacrifice?
