Chapter 35: The Lost Ancient Dance
Gradually, as the music reached its climax, the woman began to spin rapidly on the drum at some point, the waist-length hair scattered behind her, with the dress and ribbons, red and black interlaced, accompanied by the looming colorful brilliance, the whole person was like a spinning top, no face could be seen, people seemed to only see the colorful light, such as a meteor crossing, also like a feather ascending immortal. And under her feet, the rapid drum beat came out, and the sound was not loud, but it was like a thunderbolt rolling in the sky, like the wheel of the gods passing by, and it hit the hearts of the people.
Several judges in the front row, who were already a little tired, all left the backrest at this time, straightened their waists and looked at the stage without blinking.
Suddenly, when the spinning was almost flying, the woman's waist suddenly bent at an incredible angle, and the audience screamed. The woman's sudden silence also produced a kind of music, as if she suddenly broke through many obstacles, jumped into an immortal, and floated in the sea of clouds. Immediately afterwards, the tune is transposed, which is completely different from the previous rapidity, soothing and quiet, such as the sound of the heavenly sound, the streamers are fluttering, stretching out the arms to return to the home, the whole person is light and fluttering, and there is a kind of sunrise in the east, looking at the clouds and dancing.
The woman on the stage danced by herself, completely unaware that everyone in the audience had gone crazy for it, and people never thought that a simple dance could have such a realm.
As the tune turns again, the song reverberates ethereally, and the beams of golden light fall, like a sea of clouds, bright or dark figures, turn around with the music, and finally refreeze on the quiet figure like a lotus flower at the beginning. Holding lotus flowers, crony flying.
The gaffer seems to have forgotten, it took a long time before the lights gradually went out, the stage returned to calm, and the audience was still quiet, for a long time, I don't know who it was, and it seemed to be the same, suddenly burst into applause, people stood up one by one, shouting, as if they didn't know how to express their inner excitement, as if they had become mute for so many years, and suddenly found an outlet for catharsis.
"How is that possible? How can it be? Several juries in the front row also stood up, and the shocked expressions on their faces were not hidden at all, "How can such a rotation speed be achieved?" ”
"How can you ...... the lower back movement at that speed?"
The four judges on the judging panel seemed to have a little embarrassment on their faces, looking at the soaring numbers on the big screen of the audience on the side, and before the contestants could return to the stage, they had already surpassed everyone before.
Chen Pengwei grabbed the jade plate on his chest, his heart beat faster than the first time he participated in the mission, listening to the crazy applause around him, ten years later, he can still see his Qingqing dancing, if the dance ten years ago was still a little green, now Qingqing has already transformed into a dancer of the soul, he has always known that she is a pearl, no one can stop her light, just waiting for the accumulation of time, and then break out of the cocoon into a butterfly, this competition, will it be the first step of her nirvana?
The applause from the audience lasted for a long time, as if waiting for the contestants to re-enter the stage, Chen Pengwei looked at Yuan Fei clapping his hands and shaking his head, crooked his mouth and smacking his teeth, "This ...... Tsk, what a stunner, why didn't I find it before. Hey, trouble, Shui Lanqing, tsk, amazing, I didn't jump so well in the rematch, this is too far behind others, it's not easy to do. "Originally, it was said that the first and second were No. 9 and No. 14. Although the No. 14 player has not yet played, this Shui Lanqing can pull them too far, even if they are sitting on the rocket launcher, they are afraid that they will not be able to catch up. Looking at the reaction of the audience on the field and the support of the audience outside the stadium on the big screen, if she is allowed to take the third, I am afraid that the next competition will not have to be held, and the audience is not a fool The saliva of public opinion can drown them. Thinking about it, he narrowed his eyes......
"You Yuan San won't smash your own signboard for others, I advise you, don't provoke the anger of the public, it's best to do things according to the rules, and now in this situation, no one can find fault with you. Skills are not as good as others, and they are willing to gamble and lose. Looking at Yuan Fei's expression, it was not difficult for Chen Pengwei to think that he was only afraid that he wanted to force it, how could his Qingqing be buried by others by such means. Seeing the lights on the stage come back on, and the audience was looking forward to Lan Qing's reappearance, Chen Pengwei glanced sideways at Yuan Fei, who was a little stunned because of what he had just said, and the coldness in his eyes flashed, "...... Also, don't beat her mind. ”
Yuan Fei was taken aback by the murderous intent in Chen Pengwei's tone, and after everyone sat down, he slowly reacted, and was stunned for a while, everyone said that he Chen Shao changed women like changing clothes, but he had never seen him protect a person so strongly, thinking of the conversation between the two before, he obviously came for someone, and at this time, he couldn't see that he didn't have to mix in this circle, it was rare for Chen Da to open his mouth, and he would do this for others to offend this young fool in the capital.
The lights on the stage came back on, and Yuan Snitch laughed twice, "No problem, as long as your eldest young master says a word, buddy must do things according to the rules." After speaking, he looked at Chen Pengwei like a fox.
Chen Pengwei listened to Yuan Fei's words, and couldn't be clearer in his heart about his careful thoughts, but for Qingqing, it was the deepest and most secret taboo in his heart, and he couldn't tolerate the slightest joke or ridicule from others, even if he didn't want to cover it up properly. Listening to Yuan Fei's tone that he usually talked about other women, Chen Da was a little annoyed in his heart, and glanced at him coldly, but did not speak.
Just this glance made Yuan Fei's heart startled, and put away the look on his face that was watching the show, it was really too smooth all these years, and he forgot that some people's jokes were not just made when they were opened, not to mention, Master Chen's gossip had to be heard and passed on. wanted to say "I know", but I felt faceless, so I also turned my head, looked at Lan Qing who re-appeared on the stage, drew a question mark in my heart, and looked at it carefully.
When I put on my dancing shoes again and walked on the stage, I thought it would be cold, but I didn't want the high lights of the stage to come down, it was warm, and even a little scorching. The dance is over, full of tiredness, the hospitalization when I just returned to China and the preliminary rematch a while ago, my body is a little overloaded. After the dance, I also got rid of one of the master's thoughts, and my heart relaxed a lot. I didn't think much about it when I danced just now, but now when I walked on the stage, my eyes swept over the big screen next to me, looking at the numbers on it, I couldn't help but be startled, and my steps paused slightly.
The audience remembered the applause again, and was not nervous when she danced just now, but now standing in the center of the stage, looking at the black heads below, Lan Qing couldn't help but feel a little abrupt in her heart. I've never participated in a competition, and even the school's graduation performance doesn't feel like this. The little pale face, which was originally tired, was slightly reddened.
"Ahem...... A bald man on the judges' bench took the lead in speaking, "Shui Lanqing, right?" Lan Qing nodded slightly, but didn't speak, not to save strength, and those bright eyes looked at each other, which only made people feel that she was right no matter what. How many years have you been dancing? "Routine questions.
"Twenty-three years." Compared with the answers of several previous players for more than ten years, this number undoubtedly surprised people.
"How old are you? Jumped for twenty-three years. Looking at the fact that it was only in his early 20s, the judges were a little incredulous.
"Twenty-six." A simple answer, neither humble nor arrogant, no pride but also no modesty. The contestants in front of her were cheerful, cute, quiet, or arrogant, but none of them answered the question as calmly as her, and there seemed to be no emotion in it. But the tone of Wu Nong's soft language in Mandarin with Jiangnan grace makes people feel that such a woman should speak like this. Very strange player.
"Ah, then you've just started to learn to dance. Is that a family of dancers? I see that you wrote on your resume that you studied abroad? ”
Shaking his head, "I learned dance from my teacher since I was a child, and then because of ...... Some reasons to go abroad. ”
The bald man nodded, and was about to speak, but a very young judge next to him asked, "But, this dance doesn't look like a certain ethnic group, does it?" ”
Lan Qing was slightly stunned when she heard her question, and slightly lowered her head to think about whether to explain. Because I had already told the organizing committee of the competition during the preliminary round, I could only participate in it, but I was not one of these judges at that time.
Lan Qing didn't answer yet, she sat in the center of the judging bench, and didn't speak all night, but it was the oldest old lady in the judges who took the microphone, "I'll say a few words." The old lady sat there, graceful and magnificent, with a head full of silver threads and wrinkles on her face that only made people feel the accumulation of time. Listening to the judge's question just now, he frowned slightly, he was really a young man. It's been a long time since I've been a judge for such a competition, and if I didn't owe someone a favor, I wouldn't have come this time. I am old but it does not mean that I am out of society, the average jump on the 9th just now, but I gave such a high score, the blind can see that there is a problem. I don't participate in those pickled things, but if they bury such a player because of their ignorance, they are not allowed.
Lan Qing looked at the name on the name plate in front of the old man's stage, the word "Shao Yan", and bowed slightly, not because she was the most qualified, but because she remembered that the master had said that in the past competition, this Shao Yan was also one of the judges, and he helped her a lot, and later withdrew from the competition, Shao Yan also came to find her. Master told me that if I had the opportunity to see her in the future, I would bow to her and thank her for her help. "Teacher Shao."
Shao Yan nodded, looking at the girl on the stage, the intimacy arose spontaneously, really like the girl she used to be, "Lan Qing, let me ask you, do you know what kind of dance you danced?" ”
"Ancient dance."
"Inspired?" The judge next to him repeated it a little strangely, and it didn't seem like that.
