Lu Cheng ignored her, she was already fully focused on the performance itself.

The very delicate puppet characters appeared, and unlike the puppet shows she had seen before, this kind of puppet show did not have any lyrics, it was all confession.

Daobai was spoken in "new words", and after several weeks of intensive Mandarin practice, Lu Cheng could roughly understand it.

In the beginning, it was a beautiful village, and the people in it lived a stable and peaceful life.

Farmers farm, blacksmiths make iron.

Goods are sold in the shops.

A peaceful atmosphere.

Below is a casual conversation of several puppet characters about farming and life, which makes the students below feel very familiar.

Then came the role of a young teacher.

This teacher is obviously a little interesting with the shopkeeper's daughter.

The two puppeteers each sang a long song of concubinage.

Then, somewhat abruptly, the scholar began to talk to the peasants about the affairs of the government: the defeat of the imperial court in Liaodong, the rebellion of Xiaoshaan, and the entry of his son into the customs.

In the north of Zhili to attack the city ** captivity, all evil, the front of the army reached the city wall of the Beijing division, the imperial court was afraid of the enemy like a tiger, did not dare to fight...... It's all new to the tasters.

Because these things are only vaguely heard at home on weekdays, only those who are literate and willing to subscribe to the "Lingao Times" know.

Now that there is such a detailed explanation, everyone listens very carefully, and many people are overwhelmed by the horrors of the people who have been affected by the war and natural disasters.

Wu Mu carefully observed the expressions of the audience, thinking that if there was a play in another time and space that retold the news report in the newspaper at length and at length, I am afraid that the audience would have shouted "refund the ticket" a long time ago.

It's a blank sheet of paper that is easy to draw.

Zhao Manxiongsky frowned: The propaganda effect is good, but this bit of current affairs news can arouse such great interest from the audience, which fully shows that the propaganda department is not in place.

After more than a year-long news broadcast on current affairs, the first act ended.

A few minutes later, it was the second act.

Accompanied by a sneaky and eerie soundtrack, the curtain is the setting of the county office.

The county officials, masters, and officials were discussing how to collect the additional salaries this year, and how to reap more benefits for themselves from the additional salaries.

Not only are the faces of several characters portrayed as puppets either vicious or ugly, but the lines are also written with great viciousness.

For example, "The poor ghost is a stone, and he squeezes out three taels of oil and does not kill the poor ghost, how do we eat meat, the people are cheap, and they have to be beaten hard to be obedient", and so on, the students' expressions were silent and indignant.

Wumu knew that everyone was starting to get into the play.

Even someone like Wumu, who doesn't care about the details of history, knows it.

There is a discrepancy between this scene and the real scene.

But it doesn't matter.

In order to arouse the hatred of the masses, a little exaggeration and concentration are necessary.

Then there is a discussion of various poisonous schemes to record the people, and the traverser has all kinds of elements in his hands, no matter which time and space, all of them are condensed and gathered.

I could see that the students below gritted their teeth one by one.

The third act begins to enter the ** part, and the officials enter the village and begin to collect grain and taxes.

Fight and rob all the way.

Bullying men and women, even the widow's zuihou snatched a chicken, and did not let go, when the widow cried that she had nothing, she began to pick up the house and sell the straw on the roof.

"Even rotten straw! Pickpocketed the house.

Where do people live.

It's a shame. ”

Someone was muttering.

Someone was sobbing quietly.

Obviously, the screenwriters don't want the people to focus their hatred only on grassroots cadres such as county officials and government officials.

So as not to encourage their thinking mode of "the emperor is a saint, and the crooked-mouthed monks below have recited the scriptures", so a eunuch on a horse appeared, and the eunuch announced the holy decree as soon as he came.

Said to be a beauty pageant for the emperor.

Then there was a plot of robbing women everywhere, and after grabbing them, there was a plot of the eunuch and the local official Hao Shen privately dividing the women together, and even added a plot of the eunuch taking a concubine.

It is well known that eunuchs do not have that kind of function, and I heard that eunuchs do not have to take concubines if they marry wives.

The students present looked very angry.

Especially the male trainees.

The scene of the village changed from beautiful to boring, with houses ruined everywhere, and a hanging puppet even hung on the backdrop of a big tree.

The music became miserable.

The puppets in Act I are now dressed in tattered clothes to show their destituteness.

When the owner of the only shop was in a panic, another official came to ask him to "be a comprador in the bank", so another tragedy was staged.

Just as the plot played out, the shopkeeper committed suicide because he went bankrupt.

When her son was arrested and her whereabouts were unknown, and her daughter was robbed and sold to a brothel, Yao Yulan suddenly heard Lu Cheng next to her sobbing quietly, and when she looked back, Lu Cheng stuffed the handkerchief in her mouth and forced her crying, and her face was already full of tears.

Yao Yulan knew that this love apple aroused her sadness, and comforted her and said, "Don't cry, this is a play"! Lu Cheng shook her head and pressed the cry in her throat Yao Yulan couldn't understand it, she didn't know what it was like for her family to wander on the avenue and starve; I don't know how it feels like a loved one is sick to death but can't even drink porridge; I don't know the panic and despair of losing everything and embarking on an unknown journey.

She has gradually forgotten these feelings in the past, and sometimes she deliberately does not think about them.

But it's all going to be hooked up.

"Oh, you are really" Yao Yulan wanted to say that she was too sentimental, and there were still a few people who were sobbing around "Although some people didn't cry, there were tears in their eyes. ”

Don't cry, let's watch the show. ”

Yao Yulan comforted.

She is very sympathetic to the plight of the characters in the play, and also sympathizes with the plight of her classmates, but this sympathy is general, which is different from the feeling that most people feel as if they are there.

Then the scholar went to Fucheng to complain, was kicked out, and then was framed again, and the scholar Zuihou took the blacksmith in the village to uncover the rod, beat away the officials, and killed the secretary.

Rescued the lover from the brothel.

At the end of the first half, the village was in tatters, but it was beginning to come back to life, and the displaced people returned to rebuild their homes, and the scholars and lovers were finally married", symbolizing the illumination of the sun.

Wu Mu was so surprised that his mouth couldn't close, and the level of this puppet show was really high! The plot is a bit of a patchwork, but the puppet's movements, confession and the stunts used are all beyond his expectations.

I didn't expect to be able to deduce such a complex plot! Take advantage of the room to restore the light.

He observed the students.

I found that many people had just cried, "The effect is really good."

Most of the girls' team cried a lot, and the only one who didn't cry was only two, one was Yao Yulan, who looked quite embarrassed, because she couldn't show a sense of sadness and was out of place with the people around her.

The other is poplar, completely expressionless.

Such a powerful tear gas canister is ineffective, is there really something wrong with this poplar? Wu Mu's heart couldn't help but draw a big question mark.

The second half started with the second half, and the village that had returned to peace and harmony seemed rich and peaceful.

The village had its own armament, and the five puppets, led by the blacksmith, were proudly asking for knives and guns on the curtain.

Just then, a warning came.

Officers and soldiers are coming! Everyone raised the alarm bell to defend against the enemy together, and soon defeated the officers and soldiers.

A triumphant jubilation.

The following thing is the scene of the government conspiring to recruit security when they see that the war is not working.

Then there was a heated debate in the village about whether or not to accept Zhao'an.

The blacksmith and the scholar insisted on "fighting to the end", but the villagers who had regained their vitality thought that "you must not violate the king's law and live in fear for the rest of your life", and the argument was fierce, and even Wumu was a little fascinated.

At this critical juncture, the government spies who infiltrated the existence of the government lobbied the villagers everywhere, promising to "not blame the past" and promising that "they would not be levied for three years".

zuihou。

Instigated by the spies, the villagers arrested the scholars and blacksmiths who presided over the rebellion and tied them up to the government.

The scene of several leading figures being caught by the villagers and sent to the government caused a commotion among the audience below: "What is this called! Ungrateful! This will surrender, not afraid of the official government to settle accounts after the autumn? "The students showed their bitterness at the betrayal of the revolution by the masses.

followed by another court scene with fierce rhetoric from both sides, Wu Mu felt that this scene from the lines to the bridge was similar to the reactionary interrogation ** in the revolutionary film he watched when he was a child, and even the words "We can't finish killing" are also available.

In the next scene, scholars and blacksmiths were pushed to the execution ground to be beheaded, and some scholars inevitably said with righteousness and awe-inspiring like the ** members in the movie: "Your end is coming!" The fire of retribution is at the ends of the earth! After the execution of the chief, the officers and soldiers returned to the village, and the villagers who betrayed the leader of the rebellion did not end well, and were retaliated against.

The village was once again depressed and gloomy, with more deserted graves, corpses, and more hanged people hanging from trees.

In the scene of Zuihou, the blacksmith's son and the scholar's wife flee to the south under the farewell of several people, and he is going there to find the "hero who saved the country and the people", so the curtain ends in the song "Send the king to the side of the road," and the curtain ends.

When the light is back on, the audience is still stunned, such a miserable ending is different from the plays they have seen, traditional dramas always have a bright ending, either "the champion in suffering" or "the husband and wife both return home", although the current ending gives a little expectation, but it is too miserable, and many people are dissatisfied.

Some even said loudly: "Good people shouldn't end up so miserable!" (Visit H)
