22 Troupe

During the New Year's holidays, the village will always invite the troupe to come over and sing a few operas.

In the winter of that year, a troupe from Chang'an passed through Xingyuan Village and happened to meet the 60th birthday of Zhen Youqian, a wealthy businessman in the village.

The pillar in the troupe is called Jiang Mulan, and she sings Hua Dan.

With a melon seed face, autumn-like eyes, and a graceful figure, he sang and babbled, telling the love and hatred.

One step at a time, one laugh turns all beings upside down.

The scene sung in Zhen Youqian's house became famous in the village.

I was fortunate enough to hear it all around, how lingering and charming Hua Dan's singing was that hooked the hearts of the villagers.

Jiang Mulan is beautiful, virtuous, and has one of the best personalities, and she was taken by Zhen Youqian, who was over the age of six, and wanted to ask her to be his wife.

Mulan is in her youth, at a flower-like age, and she is so angry that she is unwilling to marry Zhen Youqian, who is half cut into the ground, and swears to resist.

The class owner's surname is Jiao, known as Jiao Triangle, the original troupe wanted to gain a firm foothold in Chang'an, but it didn't come to pass, the original leader in the team Hua Dan was a man, called Jiao Mao'er, an orphan, and he gave him this name to be cheap and easy to support, he was bought by Jiao Triangle since he was a child, and he was taught by his side, that charming figure is really more feminine than a woman, and the drama he sang is also well-known in Chang'an, full of seats, and Jiao Triangle makes a lot of money.

Jiao Mao'er, as a pillar, has fame, money, and people are also tough when they speak, and often have some quarrels with Jiao Triangle, but the relationship between the two is always good.

Chang'an is a rich and noble place, what officials and rich businessmen are grabbing a handful, the cat with his lingering singing voice and charming appearance in Chang'an's elite circle mixed with the smooth sailing, in the end, he hooked up with the lady of Shangshu Mansion, and eloped with the lady overnight with gold ingots.

Liu Shangshu was furious, sent many family members to look for it, and also reported it to the government, but there was no news from him.

He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, his own young lady couldn't find it, and the culprit Jiao Mao'er was even more nowhere to be found, so he sprinkled all his anger on the Jiao family opera team, stumbling everywhere openly and secretly.

Jiao Triangle dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the powerful covered the sky with one hand, what ability could he, an ordinary little opera troupe, have to compete with the powerful, he could only watch the Jiao family opera troupe get worse day by day, and secretly scolded this filthy behavior in his heart, and he didn't dare to put any fart on his face.

lost the stage pillar Jiao Mao'er's troupe, and in Chang'an, where Liu Shangshu covered the sky with one hand, he was no longer hot, in order to feed this large team, he immediately made a decision and went east!

Beat gongs and drums along the way, and when there is a happy event at home, you can also be invited to sing a play and earn some pocket money, and Jiang Mulan was also brought up by Jiao Triangle at this time and became a Hua Dan.

Jiao Triangle spent a lot of thought on Mulan, and before he could earn back the capital from Mulan, he was about to be begged by an old man to be his aunt's wife, how could he not be willing, he thought to himself, I can't afford to provoke the powerful people in Chang'an, you are just a rich businessman in a small village, how can you bear me?

However, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, Jiao Triangle is under the pressure of Zhen Youqian, and he can't use his fists and feet in Xing'an Village, after thinking about it, he finally decided, continue to go east, I Jiao Triangle can't be provoked, can't I hide?

just went all the way, then Zhen Youqian really didn't send anyone to chase after him, and Jiang Mulan finally let go of a stone in her heart, and she was even more grateful to Jiao Triangle.

In this way, there were stops and stops along the way, and some people in the troupe felt that the future was bleak, and they bid farewell to Jiao Triangle to find their own way out.

Although Jiao Triangle is a good person, he is still righteous, after all, they are brothers who have been making a living together for many years, and others have other ways to go, so it is not good for him to be a stumbling block on that road.

Walking all the way to the east, the troupe came to a vacant land, the cars and horses were tired, everyone was a little tired, at this time it was almost dusk, no matter how much they hurried, it was difficult to walk at night, and the Jiao Triangle let everyone rest in place.

Since Jiang Mulan has been the Hua Dan of the drama team, she can be regarded as pampered, and the team is poor, but she will not treat the corners who can make money badly, and if there is something delicious, she will be the first to give them food.

Kang Hongguang went to the forest to pick up dry branches, worked in the clearing for a while, and finally lit the fire.

He is a miscellaneous servant bought by Jiao Triangle, and he doesn't have much work, so he helps pack up his baggage, props, and set up a stage, and sometimes he can take the place of a corner and go on stage for a walk.

Jiang Mulan is an approachable person, seeing that everyone is busy, she took the big spoon and cooked for everyone, the food was fragrant, everyone present was hungry, and even Jiao Triangle, who had always been picky, showed a rare smile recently.

The group sat around the fire, discussing where to leave tomorrow.

"All the way to the east, passing through many villages, but there are few people in the village who can invite a troupe, so it is better for us to change direction and go south, there is a small town there." Kang Hongguang took out a sheepskin map from his clothes, placed it flat on the ground, and pointed to a small icon on the map and said.

When Jiao Triangle saw the landmark, he remembered where he had spent some time when he was young, and nodded: "You are right, Yongwu Town is a prosperous place, it is a place where various villages in the vicinity often come to catch the market, and it is close to the sea, the transportation is convenient, the trade is developed, we can also cross the sea to other continents, there are many Westerners there, and our Kunqu Opera will definitely be able to gain a firm foothold there." ”

Jiang Mulan was a little panicked when she heard that she was going to cross the sea, she was born and raised on this continent, although she was sold to Jiao Triangle by traffickers since she was a child, but after all, she grew up here, the old man often said that the fallen leaves return to the roots, no matter what the people are, their hometown will always be the last harbor.

And across the sea, I don't know what risks will be encountered in the future.

The fire crackled, the grass in the distance was gently removed, and two handsome and beautiful men appeared in front of them, followed by a somewhat grinning girl.

As soon as Chanchan walked in, she smelled the aroma of the food, and her stomach barked out of place.

She hadn't eaten for a day, in order to hurry, Jiang Cheng quickly whipped up, and refused to let Tengyunma stop, just a few hours ago, Tengyunma was so tired that he lost his temper and refused to hurry again.

It's not far from the ghost village, just a day's hike.

Jiang Cheng could have shown his true identity and taken them with him, but he was afraid that this Si Wenchu was here, so he also let go of his thoughts.

The people had no choice but to dismount and walk on foot, and when they saw smoke rising in front of them, they looked closer and found this group of people.

Facing the three people who appeared for no reason, Jiao Triangle took the lead in getting up, clasped his fists and asked, "Dare to ask who is coming?" ”

Chanchan returned the salute first, her fleshy face was smiling, and her apricot eyes were bent into a small moon, which was very amazing.

"Replying to your words, the three juniors were in a hurry to join their relatives, but they met robbers on the way, and they had been hungry for a day, and they smelled the fragrance coming from here, and they were really hungry, so they dared to come out and ask if you could give you some food."

Jiao Triangle has seen three religions and nine streams, what powerful and rich businessmen, what market hooligans, they have all been in contact, the three people in front of them are wearing gorgeous clothes, no matter how they look at the poor and vicious people, they beckoned them to come over and eat together.

As the old saying goes: rely on your parents at home and your friends when you go out.

Making more friends is also accumulating your own contacts, and the three of them dress like rich and noble people, and it is even better to get to know rich and noble people.

Chanchan picked a bunch of kindest women to sit beside her, took the vegetarian soup that the woman brought, drank it all, and soothed the Five Organs Temple.

Jiang Mulan patted Chanchan's back and said with a smile: "Eat slowly, don't choke." ”

Chanchan replied with a smile: "Another bowl!" ”

Kang Hongguang was surprised: "What a girl with a big appetite, I don't even eat so many miles." ”

The group laughed, and the atmosphere was much more harmonious, and Jiao Triangle pulled Kang Hongguang to the other side to discuss the direction of the journey.

Si Wenchu raised his eyes and looked at the stopped carriage and the large bags of luggage, and pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Are you a troupe?" ”

Jiang Mulan's eyes were autumnal, and she paid great attention to this dignified son, and when she saw him asking, she hurriedly replied: "Yes, we are singing Kunqu Opera." ”

Seeing that a beautiful woman answered, Si Wenchu became enthusiastic and put on a pretty appearance: "I don't know what to call this girl?" ”

Jiang Mulan lowered her head a little shyly, and replied delicately: "The little woman's surname is Jiang, and her name is Mulan." I don't know what to call Childe? ”

Chanchan looked at Si Wenchu with some anger, knowing that she was flirting with someone!

only to find that his eyebrows were inadvertently raised, revealing an unfathomable smile: "Call me Si Wen Chu." Who is Ms. Kong? ”

Jiang Mulan shook her head, picked up the firewood from the fire higher, and replied a little sadly: "I am an orphan, I have been sold by traffickers since I was a child, and I don't know where my hometown is. ”

As if recalling that sad memory, Jiang Mulan's autumn eyes were even more watery, and pitifully, Kang Hongguang, who was discussing with Jiao Triangle on the side, found it and comforted her: "Mulan was so good-looking when she was a child, and when the class master brought her back, she was fascinated by the young men in our area!" ”

"Yes, yes, I remember that you liked to bully her the most at that time, and you always loved to pull Mulan's braids." Jiao Triangle also interjected, "I remember that the cat liked Mulan the most at that time, and when she saw you bullying her, she rushed up and turned her head to fight, and at that time, you two monkey children fought the most fiercely." ”

After Jiao Triangle finished speaking, he remembered the cat who eloped with Miss Liu and ran away, and he was a little reluctant in his heart, although most of the reason why the Jiao family opera troupe couldn't stay in Chang'an was because of the cat, but after all, he was an orphan who brought it up, and the love was there.

I don't know where he and Miss Liu fled to, and what he looks like now.

After the meal, Jiang Mulan went back to the carriage to rest, and the rest of the people found some straw in the field to pave it and slept like this.

In September, the temperature is neither high nor low, but the temperature in the wild varies greatly, and in the middle of the night, Chanchan still woke up from freezing.

She got up only to find that Jiang Cheng, Si Wen and the others, who had been sleeping not far away, were not there. The fire was still burning, and the people who were asleep on the spot were next to each other, but they could not be found.

She shouted softly: "Si Wenchu? Jiang Cheng? ”

There was only the whirring evening breeze in response.

There was a hard object in her arms against Chanchan's nipple belly, and she looked down to see that it was the Book of Demon Hunting.

A flash of inspiration came to mind.

At this time, neither of them was there, no one was looking at her, so she could have fled now to find a beauty.

The time and place are favorable, and if you don't run away at this time, you will wait for when!

If you go back to the ghost village, then Beizi still hasn't woken up after eating Pan Longzhi, and the next step is not to take her three souls!

Chanchan broke out in a cold sweat......

She took a general look at her surroundings and climbed into the dense woods, whether it was east or north, as far away from them as possible!

The cold wind whistled through her face, and there was some stinging, Chanchan had no time to care about these, and ran tirelessly. I don't know how long I ran, Dongfang showed the white of the fish's belly, and the vision became clear, Chanchan dared to stop the pace of progress, found an old tree with thick roots protruding from the ground, and sat down.

Look around, the endless deep forest. She didn't notice where she was running when she first ran, and it was even more unclear where she ran now, she drew a simple pattern in mid-air, and a green light flashed in front of her, and a small doll carved in pink appeared in front of her.

Chachamu hadn't seen Chanchan for a long time, and a front pounced in Chanchan's arms, "I haven't seen you for a long time, master." ”

Chanchan has always liked children, and a sensible and cute child like Chachamu likes it even more, but now that she is on the run, she has no heart to keep warm with Chachamu, so she hurriedly asked: "Do you know how to get out of this forest?" ”

Cha Cha Mu only found out that Chanchan was alone at this time, and seeing her anxious appearance, she also had a general understanding of the current situation.

The master has run away.

He closed his eyes, his small body floated, his whole body exuded a green aura, and the green leaves not far away were summoned, and there was no wind and automatically, and they rattled. After a while, the answer was given: "If you go east, you will reach a small town, which is near the sea, where cars and horses converge, and the traffic is very convenient." ”

Chanchan nodded: "Go!" ”

One person and one tea tree spirit walked east side by side, with the leadership of tea and tea wood, it didn't take long for Chanchan to go out of the forest, and a bustling and lively town was not far away.
