Chapter 39: Entong Reinvention
On the stage, the sudden female voice made many audiences subconsciously hold their breath.
Although the voice was not the familiar one, and it did not have the deterrent power that should be in the voice, the familiar tone and condescending mocking tone made the Jin Yuren involuntarily awaken the instinctive sense of fear. For a while, the people who got up and left the venue stopped one after another, and the people who were frowning and about to protest lost their voices, and the audience was silent.
It wasn't until the next moment, as the owner of the voice slowly appeared, that the audience breathed a sigh of relief.
The appearance is a plump body, but the face is still childish, although after careful makeup, more mature and stable than the real appearance, but it is still completely different from the indelible shadow in people's minds.
Maybe it's just a coincidence in the lines? The audience couldn't help but think of it.
And it was just such a startled and relieved that those who were about to leave the audience finally calmed down and sat back in their seats to watch the follow-up show.
On the stage, Li Chaolu continued his performance with a little nervousness.
She plays the most important role in the entire musical...... In fact, she was a little nervous, afraid of difficulties, and reluctant. However, considering that the sworn enemy Shen Qingming can only be responsible for the opening dance and the follow-up tricks, he can play the leading role and become the focus of the audience...... This difference in treatment made Li Chaolu reluctantly agree.
However, it is really difficult to master this role on stage.
Zhao Shenlu's character and temperament are unique in the entire Xiangzhou Continent, and the kind of bearing that looks down on all living beings from above, no matter how Li Chaolu tries to imitate it, it is difficult to get its essence. Although she herself is also the daughter of a wealthy family, she is still too far from Zhao Shenlu's level of lawlessness.
In fact, in the entire crew, the only one who can really imitate Zhao Shenlu is the Outer Heaven Sword, Wang Jiu once used phantom swordsmanship to conjure up Zhao Shenlu's appearance during rehearsals, and his speech and demeanor, demeanor and temperament are all the same as real people. In addition, Li Wanqing can barely imitate one or two essences - after all, she herself is also a lawless character.
So in the original plan, the role of Zhao Shenlu was to be played by Wang Jiu himself with phantom swordsmanship. But soon Li Wanqing raised objections: The role of Zhao Shenlu should not be played too realistically. On the day before the public trial, an actor who was the same as Zhao Shenlu himself suddenly appeared, but he was afraid that it would cause panic, so he simply chose Li Chaolu, a candidate who could not act too much like him anyway.
Now it seems that the effect is really good.
Although she tried her best to imitate the tone of tone, which succeeded in taking the audience by surprise, it did not cause confusion and panic, and most of them turned their attention back to the stage with some curiosity and amusement, wanting to see what kind of plot this actor who was somewhat similar to the former city lord was going to perform.
On the stage, Li Chaolu tilted his head slightly, looked at Li Wanqing with playful eyes, and said: "Now, do you regret in your heart, when you were young, you shouldn't have been sharp at home in order to compete for a short time, which caused alarm and even suppression?" β
After speaking, without waiting for the other party's reaction, Li Chaolu let out another sneer and nodded: "It's okay if you don't have it." β
As soon as these words came out, the audience began to get nervous again.
This kind of dialogue that seems to be asking and answering questions sounds familiar...... The former lord liked to talk like this, as if her gaze could penetrate people's hearts, and she could already see the answer without you opening your mouth to answer.
If it weren't for the obvious difference between Li Chaolu's external image and Zhao Shenlu, some of the audience would have been unable to hold back their fear and fled in the wilderness.
On stage, Li Chaolu continued her performance.
Facing Li Wanqing, who was in doubt, she said with a smile: "Do you know that your cultivation qualifications are first-class in the entire Xiangzhou?" Compared to the heads of those wealthy families, it is not far behind. β
"It's a pity that you were born in the wrong place, in a third-rate family, even if you have first-class qualifications, you can only cultivate to a second-rate person. What's more, you have been wasted by your family for a few years of precious time, and you have taught the wrong exercises, and your foundation is unstable, and you have been downgraded from the second rate to the third rate or even the fourth rate. β
Hearing this, Li Wanqing sighed slightly and said, "So I think it's better to start all over again than to continue to waste your life like this." If a person has an afterlife, if there is an afterlife, I still have the qualifications to cultivate immortals...... The situation should always be much better than it is now. Although this chance is only one in 100 million, there is still a glimmer of hope. β
Li Chaolu smiled: "So you committed suicide by jumping off a cliff, but instead you were trying to survive in death?" β
Li Wanqing said: "Living does not mean hope, compared to living like me, it is more worth looking forward to death." β
Li Chaolu laughed and said: "Hahaha, that's right, although the views are a little naΓ―ve and whimsical, but they can finally be saved." β
"Huh?"
Li Chaolu said: "People can be desperate, but they can't be numb, since you still have the mind to survive in death, I will do you a small favor." β
As soon as the words fell, two terrifying screams were heard in the distance, and I saw that on the edge of the stage, Li Xinyu, who played the role of a family member, was showing his teeth and claws, making the appearance of falling off the cliff.
Li Chaolu didn't look over there, took out a book of exercises for cultivating immortals, and threw it to Li Wanqing: "I have already dealt with those two tails for you, and the tracking technique on your body has also been broken, this book will be borrowed from you for three days, and how much you can learn depends on your ability." β
After speaking, Li Chaolu's figure disappeared, only Li Wanqing held the book, as if in a dream.
ββ
This concludes the first act of the musical.
In the short time between the scenes, there was a lot of discussion in the audience.
The plot of this first act looks very much like those classic plots, the protagonist who has a deep hatred and hatred, gets the help of the world's masters, and embarks on the road of revenge, and kills all the wicked who have bullied him...... This kind of story can be said to be suitable for all ages, and the people love to hear it.
However, such a story has nothing to do with today's theme: love, right?
Amid the chatter, the second act of the musical begins.
ββ
The protagonist is still Li Wanqing, but the woman's temperament is very different from that in the first act. The audience saw the woman walking in the mountains, strolling and cultivating, and as the melodious song sounded, the woman's temperament seemed ethereal and secluded, and she had obviously mastered a profound cultivation technique and was reborn.
The three-day cheats that Li Chaolu threw to her were fully utilized, and all kinds of hidden dangers that had been buried in the family were uprooted one by one with her cultivation in the mountains. Today's Li Wanqing has gradually recovered the demeanor of a first-class immortal cultivator.
However, the plot showing her practice was not long, and after a short time, after finishing her daily homework, Li Wanqing came to a bamboo room in the mountains and began to cook a few side dishes quietly.
The dishes are simple, but the effort is not simple, Li Wanqing treats these small dishes more intensely and attentively than she treats cultivation.
In the end, she put a few carefully prepared dishes on the table, maintained the temperature in a simple formation, and left quietly, and she didn't move a single bite of a few dishes.
The next day, she came to the bamboo room again, saw that the dishes on the table were still the same, shook her head with some regret, cleaned them all up, went to the kitchen again, and recooked a few dishes and put them on the table.
On the third day, Li Wanqing came to the bamboo room and saw that the dishes on the table had finally changed, two plates were eaten up, and one plate only moved one chopstick, which was obviously not popular.
Li Wanqing immediately wrote down these changes, and then went to the kitchen to seriously recook, those unpopular dishes naturally will not be made again, and the popular dishes will not be copied as they are, but will change the pattern and add new flavors.
In this way, the woman practiced in the mountains day after day, cooking, and serving the owner of the bamboo room who never showed his face.
There is no time in the mountains, I don't know how long it has been, one day, Li Wanqing finished her homework and set off for the bamboo room again, but saw that there was one more person in front of the bamboo room.
A man she had been thinking about for a long time.
Li Chaolu appeared again, with an unfathomable smile, and asked, "With such perseverance, why did you jump off the cliff in the first place?" β
Li Wanqing replied: "I never met you at the beginning. β
Li Chaolu said: "The dish is well done. β
"I'll keep trying."
Li Chaolu said again: "You have been practicing in the mountains for two years, and you have never come down the mountain, just to see me?" β
Li Wanqing said: "Yes, there have always been a few questions I want to ask. β
"Okay, just ask."
"First of all...... Why help me? Li Wanqing asked, "In the past two years, I have thought of many possibilities, but none of them are worthy of the help of a big man like you." β
Li Chaolu said with a smile: "Indeed, the initial help was not to help you, but to punish your family, who does not know the height of the sky. β
"Discipline my family?"
"Do you remember the Black Yao Sword Sect? The sect that once opened its door to you, your family faction spread rumors, and deceived the elders of the Sword Sect into thinking that you were a villain with a ghost in their hearts, and they missed a good seedling......"
"Well, I've heard that."
"For a sect of the level of the Obsidian Sword Sect, a disciple with first-class qualifications often means that the sect will take off in the future, and it also means that the stock price of the sect will rise rapidly. Missing you is a great loss for the Obsidian Sword Sect. β
Li Wanqing heard it inexplicably: "So ......?" β
"The Obsidian Sword Sect is a sect that I just acquired, and its loss is my loss."
ββ¦β¦β
"Your family has harmed me for the sake of seeing people's dark and selfish desires, and it stands to reason that I should directly take action to ruin his family, but after thinking about it, they are not worthy of letting me take action personally. It's up to you to take revenge, and it's the hardest blow to them. β
"So...... That's why I was given such a great opportunity? What made me who I am now? β
"Opportunities are given by others, and achievements are earned by yourself. In the past two years, you have been practicing in my mountains, and I have watched every move. So I'm here to see you today to give you two gifts. β
After speaking, Li Chaolu took out a book and a seal.
"This secret book, I only borrowed it from you for three days that day, and now I will give it to you to read at any time, with your cultivation progress, it is almost time to practice a new chapter. And then this seal, you should have seen it. β
Of course Li Wanqing has seen it.
The seal of the patriarch of the family she was from.
"Last month, your family just went bankrupt due to poor management, and now it has been acquired by me, and I will transfer the Patriarch's Seal to you, how you want to deal with those people, as you like."
