Chapter 10 Life is like a play

"Hold your hand out." Cecily said.

Qiao Xiu stretched out his hand very generously, anyway, Qiao Xiu hadn't done anything weak, and there was nothing to hide in front of this monitor.

Even if one of the sorceresses in the room was discovered, Cecily would only ask Qiao Xiu to send this human back to the human world for the sake of the safety of the Imperial City.

That's right... Repatriation, not outright execution.

Cecily is one of the leaders of the conservative wing of the Demon Realm, and as a watchman, she has always hated senseless killing.

Qiao Xiu's hand was held by Cecili, and she directly pulled Qiao Xiu's sleeve to expose her arm.

Qiao Xiu had a sense of immediacy when he went to see Chinese medicine, and those old Chinese medicine doctors helped him take his pulse.

"The magic is not disordered......"

Cecily pressed her hand against Jo Xiu's chest again, and this action brought her closer to Jo Xiu, who could even smell the body odor coming from her......

It's a bit like a mixture of gooseberries and lilacs.

"Fortunately, there were no after-effects."

"Sister, what do you want to do?" Josieu pulled up his sleeve and glanced at Cersili.

What Cecily was doing now was not so much searching for the prisoner as it was checking Josei's physical condition.

"Did you forget the last time you had an accident that caused your magic to run wild because of your experiment?"

"Of course not."

Qiao Xiu remembered that this was the memory of the third prince before he went to the human world, he couldn't control his magic power in an experiment, and almost swallowed himself by chaos, and in the end, although he controlled the magic of the rampage, his soul and body were greatly damaged.

Since that accident, the third prince has made up his mind to go to the human world to learn new magic, and after that, his memory Qiao Xiu has become a little blurred.

I vaguely remember that when the third prince used the last bit of soul power to summon Zenas, the broken soul met himself in another world.

"Don't worry, I'm recovering well."

Although Cecily still had a serious face, Qiao Xiu could still see the worry in Cecili's eyes, so he opened his mouth in the hope of appeasing her unnecessary worries.

"Don't... There's another time. ”

Cerseili straightened up Qiao Xiu's collar and said to Qiao Xiu in a serious tone.

"Hmm."

"I still have work to do, get rid of the human in your room as soon as possible, and the human you sent to prison, which is not your hotel."

The Watchmen are not in the Imperial City, they spend their years roaming the darkest corners of the city, dealing with all kinds of vicious criminals.

So Cecily specially returned to the imperial city to see Qiao Xiu.

Qiao Xiu watched the back of Cecily leaving, and found that the relationship between the third prince and his siblings was not so tense.

Even Qiao Xiu still has the memory of the eldest brother teaching the second sister when he was a child, and the third prince learning magic.

Except for the identity of the royal family and the demons, it is completely a very ordinary family, supporting each other and taking care of each other.

But this relationship... As the siblings grew up, they became more and more thin.

Qiao Xiu thought that everyone was like this, was they already cold-blooded enough to ignore family affection?

Qiao Xiu felt that the answer was no.

I remember that the famous writer Haruki Murakami has such a passage in "Dance Dance Dance": You have to be a quiet adult. Don't be emotional, don't secretly miss, don't look back. to live another life of your own. You have to be obedient, not all fish will live in the same sea.

That's right... Not all fish live in the same sea.

The eldest brother, Noggs, grew up in the fortress and armed himself as a general, in order to one day use war to make mankind recognize the status of demons.

The second sister inherited the management of the capital, put on the mask of the watchman, and managed the order of the capital in this capacity, but she was conservative about human relations, hoping to maintain the existing peace rather than war.

For the sake of their respective ideals, they have become adults, and they have to stand on opposite sides, Qiao Xiu can already predict that two years later, they will be bleeding because of inheritance.

From Qiao Xiu's point of view, both the winner and the loser are pathetic.

People who have to go down to their loved ones for the sake of their rights are the saddest.

Qiao Xiu believes that there is still the possibility of change, and it is not difficult to change a person's mind, as long as there is a suitable opportunity.

Just like many people can believe in love again after watching "Titanic".

Whether it's movies, music, or novels, the essence of the birth of fiction is to give the audience a kind of power.

This is the end of the time for literature and art, and Qiao Xiu feels that the legs of the magician lady should be numb by now.

"The man is gone, Miss Ciri."

Qiao Xiu closed the door to his room, came to the bookshelf, and found a sheepskin scroll on the far left side of the bookcase.

"Are you going to put all those humans to death?"

Ciri stepped out from behind the bookshelves, having been eavesdropping on Johew's conversation with Cecily.

She clearly heard the words of the three executioners.

"Execution? It's too much trouble, I'm going to let them all go. ”

"Let go...?"

Ciri asked again and again, as if to make sure she had heard correctly.

"There is a shortage of food in the Demon Realm, I have no reason to raise a group of unknown humans, in a few days, I am ready to release those villagers back to their original villages, or rather, I will personally rescue them."

There were fifty-seven of the humans that Zenas had kidnapped back from the Demon Realm, and all but Ciri had escaped by narrowly escaped and the others were imprisoned in the Demon Realm.

Most of these humans were survivors of the village that had been ransacked by the robbers, and what to do with these villagers, Qiao Xiu had already figured out.

That's putting them all back! It shouldn't be said that it was released, it should be said that Qiao Xiu personally rescued them from the demon's captivity!

The movie "Beauty and the Beast" has a total of three big scenes, the small town at the beginning, followed by the snow-capped mountains on the way to the castle, and then the castle.

The town where Belle lives is second in importance to the main scene castle.

There will definitely be living townspeople in the town, all of whom belong to extras, and the extras have few roles in the crew.

But for a good movie, a group of excellent extras is indispensable, and they are one of the most important beings to create the overall atmosphere of the movie.

In this world where there are no actors, where to find extras?

Even if Qiao Xiu casually pulled some humans to make cameos, there must be a problem with their acting skills.

Then the conclusion drawn in the end is very simple, a person's acting skills are always the best when playing themselves!

Qiao Xiu decided to use the villagers and the village as 'the town where Belle lived'.

In Beauty and the Beast, there is also a hunter named 'Gaston' living in the town, who is tall and handsome and popular with the townspeople, and has always tried to pursue Belle, but has never been accepted by Belle because of his rudeness and arrogance.

Gaston is also an indispensable character in this drama, and Qiao Xiu is no longer ready to look for other actors, and Qiao Xiu directly goes to town to play this role.

And then Qiao Xiu only needs to play a human hunter who strayed into the demon realm, broke into the prison where those villagers were imprisoned, and rescued them all.

The villagers' admiration for Qiao Xiu, or the character of 'Gaston', is natural.

Life is like a play, and drama is like life.

Maybe those villagers won't know that they are living in the story written by Qiao Xiu after the filming is over.

But as long as the story is satisfying enough, even if you know it, you don't have any opinion, right? For example, the sorceress in front of her.

"Then you can rescue me too, okay?"

Ciri began to regret why she had used the ring so recklessly, it was her food money for three years.

"Unfortunately, no."

Qiao Xiu shook his head and vetoed.

"Why! I was kidnapped by you, too. Ciri was about to cry.

"Because you know too much."

Qiao Xiu thought for a moment and answered her with a very classic dialogue.
