"It's nothing to do with me, right?" I looked at him and said.

It's pitiful. But I don't think I'm any worse off myself.

"Oh, little brother, don't be in a hurry to go...... What do you think of this? I don't take your money! Sweets and drinks are also available for free! It won't bother you in the slightest, even if it's boring...... Well, most likely this will be the result. But it's not long, there are six people in total, and it's just over an hour! ”

Hearing him say that, I paused. If that's the case......

I thought about it for a moment and said, "What's in dessert?" ”

The man was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "There are senbei cakes, copper plate burning, oranges and candies, and you can take anything else you want to eat!" What's the matter, brother, do you like sweets? ”

"Can you bring it back?"

"Huh?" The man was stunned again.

"I said after the show, can I take some of these desserts back."

The man didn't speak for a long time, and I couldn't help but blush a little. As the price of watching the performances of those newcomers, it shouldn't be too much to take away some desserts.

But for some reason, I still feel a little embarrassed. But if you can take it, it's a good deal, after all, for me now, I can save a little bit on food.

Besides, I really didn't have much to do next, and I only had the idea of finding a serious job in my head, but I had no concrete plan.

Seeing that he kept staring at me and didn't speak, maybe it was because of his self-esteem, I shook off his hand and turned to leave, feeling a little aggrieved and embarrassed for some reason.

It seems that since my mother said goodbye, I have become so delicate and sensitive. If it was a child, I wouldn't have cared about this subtle feeling of inferiority at all.

However, the next moment, the man looked at me and squinted his eyes and smiled gently, and his rough palm rubbed my head and said, "Of course." Take as much as you want. Would you like to come in and listen to the gossip? ”

I looked at him in a daze, and suddenly figured out something. Behind him, a large cloud quietly drifted away, and the sunlight fell on the narrow alley.

It turned out that the sun did not shine in because the alley was narrow, but because there was a cloud in the sky that belonged to the alley.

The young man in a dark purple robe and a snow-white cloth belt around his waist walked quietly to the stage, his bald head and a shocking scar on his face. It's definitely not caused by a fall. Obvious scars. Then he sat cross-legged on the cushion.

I sat in the last row, and my eyes swept around the seat in front of me, and there were four of us, and if you count the children sleeping in my mother's arms, it would be five.

Four adult tickets and one child ticket. Bald brother, I really wronged you when I debuted in this way, but please don't be embarrassed and take a knife to cut it over. I looked at the bald man on the stage, whose eyes were obviously very shaken, and whose pointed ears were beginning to turn red, and said silently.

"Gee, haven't you started yet...... Oh? A ...... alone And when I sat down, it seemed to be a 'narrative' form of slang. ”

I glanced at the man sitting next to me as a matter of course—the middle-aged man who had just pulled me in. He was holding a large plastic bag with a bunch of sweets in it.

"Na little brother, this is for you, you can take it back. Then let's eat it together in this bamboo basket. Narrative is the best way to listen to it while eating. ”

"Thank you. But aren't you a staff member? Also watching? ”

"Ah, it's definitely not okay to change to usual, but the situation is ...... Well, have you seen it, such a little person, one more person to get together. ”

He had indeed changed his outfit instead of the black overalls he had before.

He wears gray short sleeves on his upper body and a thin silver necklace. A pair of beige cropped pants below, and the flip-flops on the feet are dangling.

Five adult tickets.

"Hah! I'm Li Shan, please advise! The bald head shouted angrily. I looked into his eyes, and I could clearly see a hint of anxiety and uneasiness in them.

The child, who was sleeping in his mother's arms, was awakened and struggled to cry and make a fuss. The small venue suddenly couldn't hear anything but his crying.

Oops.

"Oh no." As I meditated in my mind, the man muttered quietly, his brow furrowed, his eyes fixed on the whisperer.

However, the next moment, the mother did not coax the crying child, but directly slapped the child. "Shut up!!" The scream almost pierced my eardrums. I swallowed, feeling a little uneasy.

"Do you even want to disturb me to relax! Don't you even look down on me! Are you even my enemy!! The woman grabbed her hair and shouted angrily at the child, almost mad. I looked at the man next to me, who was ready to get up and stop him.

"Woo...... I'm sorry Mom, I don't dare...... I'm sorry......" The child's cry faded into weakness. I couldn't see him from behind, but I guess I was sitting in a chair, squeezing my shoulders and choking.

The man sat down again, picked up an orange and peeled it, broke a petal and stuffed it into his mouth. He handed me the oranges, "Eat?" ”

I didn't answer, "Is it okay?" Leave it alone. ”

"Well, the kid apologized right away, right? That means that he has seen his mother angry before, and he knows how to make his mother angry. But she should usually be a good mother, so she sleeps so steadily, so she forgets that her mother has an abnormal side. ”

"Mental illness?"

"Where, it's just a common problem of modern people." The man smiled, but his eyes weren't smiling, he was looking at the bald whisperer.

"We all have the darkness that is compressed somewhere in our bodies, the kind of darkness that we don't usually show. But this is a theater dedicated to performing slang, and no one will rebuke her here. As long as she doesn't continue to be violent against the child, then I don't have to stop her. ”

I turned my head to look, and sure enough, the woman was holding the child back in her arms and stroking him.

"I'm sorry Xiaozhi...... Mommy shouldn't hit you...... But this is the theater, shall we be quieter? ”

Looking ahead, the other two people didn't even look at the woman.

"A seasoned whisperer is certainly used to this situation, but for a novice who is about to make his debut, it is probably a lot of psychological pressure." The man said, chewing on an orange.

"Are you familiar with the language?"

"I guess I'm more familiar than the average person. I'm also the owner of this beautiful museum. By the way, little brother, my name is Abu, you can call me by my name directly, it's okay, everyone calls me that. ”

I nodded, refocusing my attention on the stage. The bald whisperer's forehead was clearly sweaty, and the scar on his face was a little congested and red.

Then again, I don't know exactly what a slang is. Abu just said that this speaker is going to perform a narrative form of a dialect. Syricative form of proverbs. What is this? And this bald head, what the hell is he going to do now?

"Actually, I'm a fool!" The bald head suddenly shouted.

I was startled and turned to look at Abu. Abu smiled helplessly when he saw me looking at him.

"The lowest, the most old-fashioned way to open. But for nervous newbies, it also makes sense. ”

"And then I never wore clothes! Yesterday! I'm just running down the street with my clothes on! I'm running, running, running! I actually flew up while running!! ”

I was stunned for a moment, then I couldn't help but sneer and shake my head.

"One of the most commonly used techniques in narrative is extreme exaggeration, also known as explosion. You know why? Because this method has to bet everything on every word that comes out of your mouth. Every word and sentence is a burden, so it is called an explosion. Brother, it's the first time you've seen the slang, right? That should be pretty fresh. ”

I looked at the stage and said, "Isn't this a vulgar comedian?" ”

Abu didn't answer me, a slight smile tugging at the corners of his mouth, his arm leaning back on the back of the chair in front of him, leaning over to stare at the stage.

"Just take your time."

Twenty minutes later, when Li Shan finished speaking, the entire venue fell silent. After saying the last sentence, the bald head fell silent. He kept his head down and his eyes closed.

I still don't know exactly what the proverb is. But I want to retract what I said before.

The Whisperer may not be a vulgar comedian.

After a long time, the bald head half got up, knelt on the stage again, and saluted respectfully to the audience.

"That's it for the show."

There was no applause, no scolding, and the venue was extremely quiet.

The bald head got up and walked behind the scenes and disappeared from the stage.

"I shouldn't say that the Whisperer is a vulgar comedian." I said to Abu.

"I shouldn't have said that. It seems that sometimes experience can blind some things. Abu smiled.

"What?"

"Opening. Although it's very old-fashioned, after listening to it, I feel that there should be no more suitable opening except for this opening. ”

"I'm a big fool." I read it softly.

Abu laughed, "What? Little brother, do you want to try speaking in Chinese too? ”

I shook my head and asked, "So what the hell is a whisper?" ”

"I want to ask the little brother in turn, after you listened to Li Shan's words-although it is a novice performance, how do you feel?"

I looked down at the food in my hand. It's an orange. Half is left.

The truest feeling is that when I listen to the proverbs, I forget that I am eating oranges and nothing else. But to say that is to say nothing.

"I can't tell, it's a strange feeling."

"It's good to have feelings. If you feel it, it's the victory of the whisperer. Although few people watched it this time, as long as the audience felt it, it was a good debut performance. Little brother, there is nothing remarkable about the language, and the teacher is even more so, and it can even be said that the status is low and low. ”

Abu turned to look at me and said, "Now TV and commercials are spreading the word all over the place, the most amazing story that shocked the world, the most unexpected performance, and so on.

Little brother, if you see this kind of propaganda in the future, just let it go, it's all nonsense made up by businessmen to spend money to find people out of their pockets. ”

There was no obvious mood swing on Abu's face, and his eyes were fixed on the stage.

"The essence of this thing, it will be born in the world, is because the current society needs 'clowns' for people to consume and entertain."

"Joker?"

"That's right. I don't know if you've noticed it, but this thing is very free. Because as long as it can mobilize the joys and sorrows of the audience, it will be considered a success. But there is also a big premise.

At first glance, this premise may seem unreasonable, but when you think about it, it makes sense—when performing a sage, the speaker must never tell the truth. Therefore, those who know the language in this world will never believe everything the teacher says. ”
