No.167 A feast
At 7:30 p.m., the sky was gradually enveloped in night. As the last rays of the sun set in the sky, night fell as scheduled, and the sky lit up with stars and an arc of crescent moon.
There are not many stars to be seen in the brightly lit city, but the brightest stars next to the moon can be faintly seen twinkling yellow.
Today is Sunday, and the musical Alice in Wonderland at the Shimmer Theatre is about to start. You can see a lot of posters of the leading actors posted at the door of the theater, as well as detailed explanations of the plot of the musical, which is very pleasing to the eye.
As the show approached, the entrance was crowded with people who came to see the musical. Most of them are not interested in the children's musical "Alice in Wonderland", and the real purpose of coming is to cheer on their favorite idols. You can see a lot of people holding cheering sticks and cheering cards, and it's hard to figure out if it's a concert or a musical.
Ye Yifan knew that the troupe was very popular, but he didn't expect it to be so popular, and even those fans didn't even follow the rules of the theater, so he knew that it wouldn't come.
But as soon as it thought of Mu Yanxue's "kind" vision, it held back that thought. Anyway, we have made an appointment, and it's not good to leave now, so let's wait quietly for everyone to come.
And Ye Yan, who was beside Ye Yifan, glanced at the people in line dejectedly. To be honest, he has no interest in this kind of performance at all, on the one hand, he feels naïve, and on the other hand, he can't cope with the "sister-in-law" in the future.
It's better to do research if you have this time, but now my brother's situation is getting more and more serious......
Ye Yifan also saw his thoughts, and then rubbed his head comfortingly and said, "Anyway, I don't have any eyebrows in this situation, so it's better to relax and relax first." You're so tired these days, and a stage play doesn't take much time. ”
Since his brother said so, Ye Yan could only sigh and say, "Okay...... But when will everyone come? We've been waiting for a long time. ”
"Wait a little longer." Ye Yifan can only say this. Because of the holiday, everyone else went to travel abroad, and when Ye Yifan said that Mu Yanxue invited them to come over to watch the musical, they all readily agreed, but they still couldn't see anyone when the show was about to start......
"Ah, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
A taxi pulled up in front of the two men, and the door opened, and a large brown split came out of it. That righteous face was none other than Du Fei.
At this moment, Du Fei was not wearing a Neo-GUTS uniform, but changed into a blue jacket, which looked quite handsome, Ye Yifan also joked: "Brother Fei, you thought it was a big star when you went to walk around the street!" ”
"What do you say...... You Brother Fei and I are much more handsome than big stars! Hearing Ye Yifan's praise, Du Fei boasted even more, and then he glanced around and found that only Ye Yifan and Ye Yan asked. What about Gao Gao and Ah Xuan? Haven't they arrived yet? ”
"This little couple should still be tired, right? It is estimated that it will arrive in a while. ”
As soon as the words fell, a brisk female voice came into the ears of several people. They looked to the side and found that Fengyun was running towards her with a ball of flowers, and Han Qixuan was following behind her.
Seeing that these two people were dressed as couples, several people felt that the progress was a little fast, and it was clear that it had not been a month since the end of the last incident......
"I'm sorry we were late, it took some time to buy a gift for Sister Yanxue." After the high-altitude wind and clouds finished speaking, Han Qixuan also walked to the side of a few people, and he had a big bag on him, and it seemed that he was going to be a tool man again.
Then the high-altitude wind cloud stuffed a large ball of flowers in his hand into Ye Yifan's hand, and Ye Yifan couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "What does this mean?" ”
"Sister Yanxue is participating in the performance for the first time, aren't you allowed to send flowers to people to congratulate?"
"Then why did you let me send it? You don't know where I'm now....."
Ye Yifan didn't say anything more halfway through, and everyone saw the changes in his body. It felt that it would be a bit cruel to cultivate a relationship with Mu Yanxue now, and if it became a dark and indescribable thing in the future.
Who knew that the high-altitude wind and clouds said nonchalantly: "It's to prevent regrets in the future, so we should cherish the present better!" Don't grind, let's get inside! ”
Ye Yifan was helpless, he handed the tickets in his hand to a few people and entered the theater. There is a lot of space inside, and the seats are full of people, so it looks very lively.
It's just that Ye Yifan's heart swelled up strangely after entering the theater, and he could clearly feel an inexplicable void power eroding its spirit, which seemed to be ...... An indescribable source of power.
Its synaesthesia suddenly became chaotic, the first time it felt so chaotic since becoming an Primeval.
The air became a little cold, Ye Yifan looked around, and he found that there were no suspicious people or things. Except for the stage that was covered by a curtain......
The others didn't seem to sense anything out of the ordinary, and sat down according to the ticket. They were located at the front, with only two rows of seats in front, but they were full of children.
After all, it's a children's musical, and it's a performance funded by the Shimmer Welfare Institute, so it's normal for the front to be full of children.
"I didn't expect Sister Yanxue's rights to be so big, and she actually gave us such a seat in front, Yifan, don't you say?" The sky looked at Ye Yifan and found that the expression on its face was very gloomy, as if there was a shadow hanging over its whole body.
Ye Yan beside it also saw that something was wrong and asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you?" Are you feeling unwell? ”
"No..... It's nothing. Ye Yifan shook his head, it felt that tonight's performance was a little abnormal, but in order not to worry others, it decided that it was better to observe it first.
"Ahem.... Cough!! ”
Suddenly, a cough rang in my ears. Not only Ye Yifan heard it, but even all the people in the theater heard it, not only did they wonder why such a noisy theater had such a loud coughing sound? This made them look behind them with some curiosity.
At the back of the seat is a white figure, completely white from head to toe, sitting quietly in the seat, motionless.
This surprised everyone a little, was it there from the beginning?
It seems impossible to determine, but now it looks like a wrapped corpse, and when noticed, everyone's nostrils are filled with a greasy aroma.
The people in the seats whispered about it. Ye Yifan turned his head to observe the terrifying thing, feeling a little restless. As an Primeval Being, it didn't feel fear, but it was a little nervous.
The humanoid coughed, it was alive. The thing sat in the crumbling red velvet seat at the back, coughing or choking, or swallowing a small piece of a particularly tasty child......
Ye Yifan had such an idea, and then the thing stood up and gradually walked towards the stage, only then did everyone understand that it might be an eye-catching episode of the musical, but when it passed by Ye Yifan, Ye Yifan clearly felt that it did not belong to human beings, and there was an indescribable aura......
Ye Yifan wanted to chase after it, but the figure walked straight into the curtain of the stage. As the curtain opened, it realized that the performance had begun, and with a commotion, Ye Yifan also gave up the idea of chasing after him.
It wanted to see what the hell the alien was up to.
When the curtain was pushed to the sides, the white figure was not visible, which made the people in the seats a little confused, but then there was a solemn opening music, and some dim lighting.
On the stage is a room, which lacks decoration and is shabby and stale.
There is a terrace on the left side of the room overlooking a lake. The sky is pink, and two suns hang over the lake. On the right-hand side is an arcade. On the wall hangs an ancient sword and a tapestry depicting a girl jumping over the horns of a bull.
After the curtain was raised, a girl was standing in front of the window. She wore a simple and elegant long dress and a silver crown on her head. But it doesn't seem to be a character from "Alice in Wonderland", and even the girl doesn't belong to the troupe, she's a raw face.
This is the second, and most suspicious, is the set of the stage. It's very real, the lake is moving, there are clouds drifting in the sky, and the sun can even emit hot light.
Although the room is shabby, it makes people feel like they are there. The audience thought that this was some kind of fairyland's stage technology, but Ye Yifan felt that something was wrong...... The primeval knowledge in its mind is triggered, and information about something unspeakable is appearing in its mind.
The performance continued, and although some didn't quite understand it, the audience continued to watch. They saw a man in a black robe standing on the right hand side of the stage. The robe was embroidered with a strange yellow mark, and the face seemed to be blank, as if it had no facial features, and was as pale as paper.
Then, in the confusion of everyone, the black-robed man still spoke:
Queen Cassiluda meditates in her room;
Mourn her blank past.
Her dreams disturbed the waters of Lake Harry
Ancient prophets sleep in the lake.
The depths of Hyades
The double sun slowly falls into the Ping Lake
Darkness grows in people's hearts
Just as the shadow of the sun stretches on the surface of a lake.
Queen Cassiluda meditated in her room,
The approaching fog swirled around her
The lost Karksa stands in the fog
Cast the form of a towering tower through the abyss.
Then, on that stage, the character who seemed to be called "Queen Cassiluda" began to speak: "The sun is swallowed up by the waters of Lake Harry, just as the truth is buried in the wisdom of the ages." The prophecy shown to me by the high priest Nautauba indicates that my successor will be the last of kings. Now my brother Adonis is pestering me to appoint an heir. ”
"Hyades and Adi Baran were reflected on the surface of the lake, and in the reflection I saw the dark city of legends, Kalksa, and the horror of the reality that suffocated me. The end has come, and so is my end. The scavengers are already hovering over my head. ”
Listening to this line, the audience felt a little confused in their hearts. The line of sight seemed to become hazy, and there was a strangeness in everyone's eyes, or rather falling into weirdness.
The cold breath of the stage seemed to permeate the entire theater, and the audience felt a little cold. When they looked up, they were surprised to see that the sky on the stage had turned into night, and there were no stars in it, not even the moon.
But there was only one yellow Aldebaran left, and it seemed to get bigger and closer. The yellowish glow spreads, encroaching on the night sky and taking over the entire theater.
"I'm in a dilemma between Nautauba and Adonis. If I survive, I'll still be able to scare both of them. But there, on the other side of the lake...... Am I crazy, or am I an illusion from death? ”
Queen Cassiluda on stage was still performing, and she seemed to be unaware of the vision that was happening in the theater, and was reciting her lines with great emotion. It seems that she is not the person who performs, but the character in the play!
But this drama is definitely not "Alice in Wonderland", it is something that everyone can see.
And Ye Yifan, who is an ancient, knows this drama, and the "Xu Ades and Adi Balan" that Queen Cassiluda said are the Aldebarian Star Cluster and Aldebaran.
And on Aldebaran in Taurus, there is the mysterious Lake Harry and the city of Alquesa. There, inhabited is the old ruler of Hasta......
