Chapter 16: Foil Performance
Chu Shancheng glanced at Mama Huang, nodded inadvertently, and stood behind Dong Xiaowan with a cold face.
Mama Huang was stunned for a while, thinking that Chu Shancheng would say something. But he just stood behind Dong Xiaowan like a little guy, didn't say anything, didn't even move.
Mama Huang's heart trembled even more.
The attitude is also much better. Bowing down, Dong Xiaowan was invited into the room in the courtyard to see the girls they were rehearsing.
Dong Xiaowan also clearly felt that since Chu Shancheng entered the door, Mama Huang's attitude has taken an eighty-degree turn. But it doesn't really matter to her, not to mention that she likes the friendly attitude of others.
It doesn't matter if the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, is it good to enjoy the shade with your back against the big tree!
Because it was a group dance, the girl in red danced like a fiery fox jumping back and forth in this somewhat dimly lit room.
There were also two shirtless men in the back, with red ties around their waists and two drumsticks hanging from their tails.
The big man struck the drumstick violently, and with the dance of several girls in front of him, the drumstick hit the girl's point right at once, and there was a sense of grandeur.
Mama Huang slapped her palms twice and stopped the girls who were dancing, and it could be seen that the girls had been practicing for a while, and there was already sweat on their foreheads, and the red veil behind them was also tightly attached to the girl's tall and thin back, and the visible flesh and skin were tight on the clothes.
Mama Huang was still a little trembling when she first spoke, and she cleared her throat much better, "Xiao Wan, these are your two companion dancers, they dance the red satin dance, one left and one right behind you as a foil, this girl with two dimples when she laughs is called Xiao Xuan, and the other is called Xiao Gao." ”
"The two men in the back hammered a cowhide drum, which required a lot of strength. It was two lads we borrowed from the barracks, twins, Big Cow and Big Rhubarb. ”
"In addition, there will be a piece of music before your dance, which is mainly the responsibility of the Orchestra Division. I'll coordinate with you before I play, don't worry. ”
As he spoke, he touched Dong Xiaowan's arm. "The beauty of the sword dance lies in the fact that the sound of the sword swaying in the air is accompanied by the sound of the piano and drums, creating a magnificent and majestic atmosphere of the golden iron horse."
"So the strength on your arm should be enough, I just touched your arm, I didn't expect it to be quite strong." patted Dong Xiaowan's arm: "It's good, it's good." ”
"Also, I heard Mama Liu say that your body is extremely flexible, which is what we need for this dance. Because if it's just an action, Xiao Xuan and Xiao Gao can also go down. But there are some movements in flexibility that can't be done, otherwise I wouldn't be so anxious to let you come up. ”
"I just don't know if you have any contact with the sword before, whether you can dance the sword flower and flip sideways with the sword in the air."
Dong Xiaowan scratched her head, not quite sure what Mama Huang meant.
He asked, "Do you have a sword, shall I try it?" ”
Mama Huang hurriedly asked Xiao Gao to invite the sword at the bottom of the box out and handed it to Dong Xiaowan. "This is the sword that the previous generation of Oiran Ruxue has been using in the past, and it dances crisply and agilely, like a snake that can fly in the air."
"You try." Carefully handed it to Dong Xiaowan.
To put it simply, this is our best sword, and if you can't do it with this sword, then you can't dance this dance.
Dong Xiaowan took it in his hand and slammed his wrist twice.
It's really lightweight, and it hardly requires any force. Throw it out casually twice, and there is a crisp sound like a spring water.
Dong Xiaowan couldn't help but secretly sigh, it was indeed a good sword.
Dong Xiaowan learned martial arts when she was a child in her last life, and the project she learned at that time was also foil, and even represented her martial arts team to participate in provincial competitions and win awards.
After coming to this world, Dong Xiaowan often feels that this world is extremely friendly to her, and let her give her a platform to show all the talents she once hidden.
Dong Xiaowan cherishes such days, as if she is shining in realizing her own value.
Dong Xiaowan took the sword in his hand and shook it a few times to better grasp the feel.
With a movement of his wrist, he asked Mama, "Is there a fixed step requirement for this sword dance?" ”
Mama replied in surprise, "These are all dance steps handed down by generations of girls in our teaching department, so naturally there are requirements." ”
Dong Xiaowan chuckled, "Then it's better for Mama to come and see my dance first, and then decide whether to use the original dance." ”
Dong Xiaowan mainly considered that it was too risky to learn a new dance in two days.
Not only is it easy to make mistakes if you don't remember the movements well, but there are also many movements that your body has to adjust if you can't do it, and these must be taken into account.
Dong Xiaowan felt that it was better to take the routine specially made up for her by the martial arts teacher when she went to the competition in her previous life, she was familiar with this set of movements, and she clearly understood how bluffing.
That year, he won the first place in the foil performance in the province. If it were to rely entirely on her technical scores, she would not have been able to get such a result at all.
The most important thing is that the set of movements is tailored to her strengths, and all her abilities can be vividly displayed.
Dong Xiaowan smiled at the big brother who was beating the big drum in the back, "Big brother, can you give me a drum beat?" Just use the song you just danced. ”
The eldest brother nodded innocently, it was the first time he had seen a girl like this to dance to the beat of his drum.
Da Niu and Da Huang are both soldiers who have been trained and infiltrated by the military camp all year round, and they have a lot of strength, and it is effortless to beat the cowhide drum, and the green tendons on the chest muscles are accompanied by the arms rising and falling, jumping and jumping.
"Knock, knock, knock."
First, Da Niu struck the big drum three times, and Dong Xiaowan originally put the sword behind his back and closed his eyes.
As the last drum sounded, Dong Xiaowan's eyes opened open, and his eyes were full of bloodshots.
The sword behind him was like a wandering dragon snake, and the silver light shone in the air with the dance of Dong Xiaowan's arm, accompanied by the sound of drums, and the sound of the sword echoed crisply and exquisitely.
Rhubarb also shook up the red satin from his waist, and "dong dong" struck on the drum.
Dong Xiaowan flipped on his side in the air, the silver sword light pointed straight to the east, and his legs kicked out fiercely to the west, and his whole body formed a straight line in the air with the sword that danced.
Falling steadily to the ground again, the silver of the sword light pointed to the west again, and Dong Xiaowan's fierce eyes also looked at the west, as if it was there, and a fierce enemy was about to attack.
At this time, Dong Xiaowan was ready and brave and fearless.
A silver sword flower danced out, and the afterimage of the invisible sword appeared in the air, and from the sword came the sound of swords and sword shadows.
"Ding Ling is long, Ding Ling is long" is accompanied by the sound of drums.
