Chapter 143: The Birth of the Alpine Fort Drama
While waiting for the order to be promoted, Richard's literary heart suddenly began to stir.
At the moment, the conditions are relatively simple, and it is not realistic to make something too complicated, but it is still very feasible to make a drama for fun. After all, the set and actors can be adapted to local conditions, as long as the story is fresh and interesting.
The lord has always been a man of action, and the script was written by himself himself, and it only took one night to get a fresh bake.
At the beginning, it was all a bitter drama of "serfs working until dark, and the old man learning to crow in the early morning". After Richard finished writing it, he felt that he was very profound and philosophical, and it must be thought-provoking, and it will become a classic after thousands of years, and it must be as easy as looking at the lines.
The Alpine Fort Grass Stage Troupe was formed on the same day, and the actors were all cameos by the Ripper's big teammates, the barbarian played the serf and the master, the centaur played the donkey, and as for Nehru, he played the watchdog.
As a result, after the rehearsals began, I realized that it was too taken for granted, and the masses didn't buy it at all.
The Ripper's big head soldier obviously has nothing to do with the word sentimentality, and he can't empathize with the tragedy at all. A reckless man who was originally full of interest played a sad face all day long, except for the two generals who played the big tree with wooden branches, the others either had stomach aches or leg cramps when they heard about the rehearsal.
You must know that the soldiers of Gaoshan Fort can top ten of them in battle, and even in the face of blood knights, no one has retreated, and it is a miracle in the world to be rehearsed and worried about deserters.
The lord reacted in time, "It seems that I am the master......", and suddenly a white hair and cold sweat broke out on his back.
Change it immediately! Change it overnight!
Today, the dragon will recognize the lord, tomorrow he will be promoted to become rich, and the day after tomorrow he will already marry the princess. How to be refreshing, the simpler and rougher, the better, what you want is that hearty and joyful, and everything else is simple because of ugliness.
The results were immediate.
This kind of content, which is very different from traditional drama, is like a sharp knife to the heart, and from the very beginning, it shows amazing attraction and vitality.
Although the princess is a rabbit auxiliary with red clay on his face, although the set is sloppy to the point of being a mess, although the dragon mount has never appeared head-on from beginning to end, although there are so many of them...... If you let those discerning professional drama critics score it, nine times out of ten it will break the lowest record in history. But it didn't prevent a group of Alpine Fort soldiers from playing into it at all, and they were fascinated by it.
Richard simply put together a ten-episode sitcom with a stroke of the pen, and the fiery response it triggered was far beyond his imagination.
It's a boring place in Chakesh, after all, it used to be just a small agricultural town that wasn't very prosperous. The vast majority of the residents are engaged in hard manual labor, and have no spare money or leisure at all, so they do any activities that they like to see.
DragonclawTens of thousands of young soldiers are also human, and there will also be entertainment needs. However, their own officials are not as open-minded and playful as the lord of Alpine Castle, and they are almost sick after training all day, and they are eager to immediately go to fight the Stuarts.
So Richard accidentally discovered that when their own people were performing in the courtyard, some people began to pick up the wall to watch the play. At first, it was sporadic three or five, but it quickly became a group. It didn't take a few days to develop, and a bunch of people popped up on the wall at the point, and even half of the empty space could not be vacated.
These soldiers, who are as energetic as martial arts, can occasionally fight on the spot in order to grab positions. Gunther started out with his fists every day, but then gave up - the audience was so large that with his fists alone, it was a drop in the bucket.
The lord had always been generous with things that didn't cost money, and he simply ordered the courtyard walls to be demolished so that more Dragonclaw soldiers could have a chance to watch.
Not to mention the ordinary soldiers who are inactive, even Béderick looks at it with relish, as a serious member of the royal family, it seems that it is difficult to find the elegant taste in him for some reason.
Even once Richard saw Higuain, a little boy - although he wore an iron mask to cover his face, his size was too eye-catching, and the entire legion should be unique except for the dwarf soldiers of Alpine Fort. And compared to the dwarves, the body is obviously not the right size.
After discovering that his identity was exposed, Higuain did not squirm. not only generously admitted, but also took the opportunity to satirize the drama of Gaoshan Castle.
His criticism was so correct that even Richard couldn't say anything - "The dragon will not be so flattering, the king will not be so sloppy, and the princess will not be a rabbit." "It's just that his literary accomplishment is still outstanding, all kinds of roundabouts and satires from the past and the present, and he doesn't have a dirty word but does his best to be mean, and he is useless.
Richard is not as knowledgeable as a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child, thinking that he usually stays in the royal capital all day long, it is estimated that he is tired of watching any prosperous market, and it is normal to look down on such a rough drama.
As a result, Higuain said that he was more disdainful than anyone else, but he came more diligently than anyone else. Because he was too short, he carried a small wooden bench every day. Richard looked amused, and originally planned to take the opportunity to say a few words, but then thought about it and let him go.
Despite his aura of eminence and dragon knighthood, Higuain is just a childish kid in the eyes of the lord, albeit a particularly annoying kind.
While stationed in Chakesh, Richard also used the communication magic stone to communicate with the remaining personnel.
The number of pairs of magic stones owned by Takayama Fort was very small, and most of them were taken by the lord with his army. The total number of people who stayed in the nest was just that, and Richard was a little worried about being away from home for too long before deciding to use it.
There is a long distance of more than ten days between Gaoshan Fort and Chakesh, and it is close to the limit of the utility of the communication magic stone. For the sake of quality, the call had to be made on the troll's shoulder. Even so, there was a rustling noise throughout.
It was Buckland who spoke at first, and the old man was very old and chattering, and he went back and forth for a long time when he had nothing to do, and then reluctantly handed it over to Anne.
The one-time alchemy prop of the Communication Magic Stone has a very limited duration, and when Buckland finishes speaking, only the last few words are left.
As a result, the half-elf merchant's speech suddenly became as swift as a mechanical crossbow, mixed with a rustling background sound, as chaotic as a pot of overcooked gruel.
Richard barely understood that she had some kind of relative who wanted to settle in Alpine Fort to escape the war, and asked Richard if he agreed. Before he could figure out what was going on, after a few brief "sizzles", Anne's voice from the magic stone stopped abruptly, and then turned gray with a click.
"Hey, hey,!" the lord yelled at the stone twice, but there was no response, and he slapped the magic stone to pieces.
Such a trivial matter as accepting a new resident is of course no problem for Alpine Fort, but it will take at least ten days to send a letter from Chakesh back to Alpine Fort. In order to prevent Anne from thinking nonsense, Richard simply hung a magic stone to Sauron in the Noble Garden of the Northeast Province, and asked him to convey it on his behalf.
In this way, it will only take three or four days at most for the news to be transmitted back to Alpine Fort.
Of course, Sauron's side was fine, and promised to inform him with the magic stone as soon as there was news.
Before receiving a reply, the official order to march to Winterfell was finally belatedly along with a snowstorm!
