Wujun Archaeological Exploration Center.

Cai An is studying a map of the city, with a book on feng shui next to him.

He is still very interested in Zhao Qi, because Zhao Qi can say that he has a high knowledge of feng shui.

It's just the nonsense in the observation room of the State Secrets Department, which makes Cai An a little unclear about what the situation of this person is.

A sudden phone call broke the silence in the office.

A few seconds after the phone was connected, Cai'an's face became suspicious.

After hanging up the phone, Cai An did not hesitate and made another phone call directly.

"Director Lin, hurry, Yishan, something big has happened!

The other side.

In the Wujun Traffic Management Bureau, Director Wu Xuefeng also received this call.

Originally, he was about to go to the subordinate management bureau for a meeting, but after receiving this call, he immediately ordered someone to change his itinerary and hurried to Yishan.

……

While everyone was rushing to Yishan at the same time, the agents of the State Secretariat were also searching the city for what they needed on the list.

Most of the things can be found in antique shops or white shops, but it takes a lot of time.

Only this troupe, the agents went to several pear orchards in a row, but they didn't find one that met the requirements.

Because it was a secret operation, they could not reveal their identities, so every time they went to a theater troupe, when they asked if there was a corner to sing the last scene, they would be rudely kicked out.

These people were all treated as things by the head of the pear orchard and came to find trouble.

Don't ask about watching the play, don't ask about the stage, don't ask about the corner, and don't ask about the box.

One of them is not to ask, that is, not to ask about the stage.

When agents like this come to the door and ask if the corners here are singing the final scene, in the opera industry, this belongs to planting seedlings.

The agents naturally don't know that there is a saying among the people since ancient times that they don't listen to the last scene when they listen to the play.

The scenes in the last scene have always been invited from other theater troupes, and their own roles do not stare at the last scene, which is also the attention of various theater troupes.

Since ancient times, there has been no return to the last scene, and most of the time, there is no one in the audience at the time of the last scene.

The older generation said that this last scene is used to send gods, and the gods in it are actually worthy of being lonely souls and wild ghosts.

The character who sings the last scene on stage is called Yingshen, and the opening of each troupe is different, so the form of this last scene is also different.

There was even a horn who, in the last scene, wore a mask and a costume, and cleaned the stage while singing.

Others will turn all the tables and chairs upside down, turn off the lights behind closed doors, and light wax and sing at night.

This kind of drama troupe that specializes in the last scene is the person Zhao Qi wants to find, but it is not easy.

The origin of this custom is now impossible to study, and the original theory of ghosts and gods has only become a practice for future generations to emulate their predecessors and continue to pass them on.

Therefore, this kind of troupe is not common, and when asked whether to sing the final scene, it is also a bad thing for each troupe.

In addition, there are many rules in the troupe.

No one knows whether these rules are true or false, but every troupe is abiding by them.

And the reason why the agents are treated unceremoniously is because they have violated the taboo of asking the horns when they come up.

After running for hours, the agents had everything else on the list, but they couldn't find a suitable troupe.

In the end, after asking Ye Zhiqiang for instructions, an agent showed the ID of the State Secret Department to the owner of an opera troupe, so that he could have the opportunity to ask where to find the troupe that sang the final scene.

The head of the class quickly pointed out a direction to them as if he was sending a plague god, and then immediately after a few people left, he picked up a broom and began to sweep the floor, as if to sweep away all the bad luck out of the door and die.

If you don't ask the desk, you will leave the customer.

Second, don't ask the corner, ask the corner to cut off the play.

Third, do not ask the box, ask the box seal is easy to open the box.

These rules are unknown to outsiders, but they are followed everywhere by insiders.

On the way to the address, these unsuspecting agents were still wondering why all the theater troupes were so resistant to them.

Gradually, the vehicle drove away from the city and came to the remote suburbs, looking at the remote environment around them, the agents were still wondering if they had made a mistake, how could there be a troupe standing in such a place where birds don't.

It's about a few kilometers from here to Cemetery Hill, isn't the trick troupe waiting to go out of business here?

Finally, according to the navigation, the vehicle stopped in a very old-looking bungalow, outside the courtyard.

This quadrangle was obviously rebuilt at a later period and is not common in Wujun.

The hidden door was pushed open by the agents, revealing a stage covered in ashes, facing due west.

Unlike other pear orchards I went to, this place did not see any sense of festivity, but a kind of lonely desolation.

There were several old men sitting in the open space next to the stage, playing with their respective instruments, as if they were practicing, but the music played was so sad.

In the middle of the old men is the old class leader who looks full of energy, practicing the flower fist and embroidered legs used in singing.

The agents couldn't tell what it was, they didn't know anything about the opera.

The reason why I came here is just to complete the mission as soon as possible.

So soon the agents who took the lead came to the old man's side:

"We're looking for someone to sing, are you still open here?"

The sound of the blowing stopped abruptly, and everyone looked back at the agents curiously.

The old class leader looked up and down at the young people in front of him, and then waved his hand:

"Let's not sing that kind of play, let's go to the play and find another pear orchard."

Hearing this, the agent pointed to the stage next to him:

"We're looking for a troupe that specializes in singing the final scene, aren't you here?"

"Huh?"

The old class master frowned in astonishment:

"You young people want to listen to ghost shows?"

The troupe that sings the last scene can be seen at a glance by insiders, because the stage is the only east-west orientation, which is also called the White Tiger Stage.

And such a troupe usually calls the play to be sung a ghost play.

Because since ancient times, this kind of opera troupe has never sung to people, and when singing, the audience is always empty.

Over time, the folk also called this kind of play a ghost show.

It's just that this kind of drama troupe is Halloween all year round, or there can be a drama when there is a mourner.

Therefore, in normal times, there will be horns who go to various opera troupes to sing the last scene that no one wants to sing, to support the whole team.

The agents didn't know about this at all, they just looked for it according to Zhao Qi's request, so after making sure that the stage here was facing west, and the troupe only sang the last scene, the agents quickly identified themselves and asked these people to come with them and go to Yishan.

The old people packed up their instruments and asked for some reason what they wanted to sing.

After all, it's not Halloween, and it seems that these people are not mourners.

But the agents were also confused, they didn't know anything about opera, so they just urged the old people to follow.

Of course, the agents didn't forget to ask if there were any female characters here.

The class leader naturally nodded, and then called his daughter.

is a slender woman, with a unique oriental charm.

It's just that the agents wondered that the woman's face was covered with a red veil, and she couldn't see clearly.

However, the agents didn't ask too much, and seeing that everything met Zhao Qi's requirements, they quickly urged everyone to go along.

In desperation, the old squad owner could only ask a few old guys to bring a few boxes containing the things used in the singing and follow the agents into the car.

It is worth noting that the box is not a normal seal, but a yellow symbol.

The east and west stages, the female characters cover their faces, and the ghost show is different from the opening of the box at the beginning of the year and the sealing at the end of the year.

This kind of theater troupe, when the box is opened, it is either the day when the ghost door is opened, or when the living die......
