Chapter 35: Drama

Early the next morning, Qin Yan was woken up by He Zhongyi and went to the eldest lady's room with Bai Lang. They waited outside the boudoir for a long time, only to hear the footsteps of the maids inside, the two young ladies dressed up under the service of many people, and it took a long time for Shi Shiran to come out.

After breakfast, Lin Muyao led them and a large group of guards and servants to the front of the Half Moon Slope to the west of the plum garden. She climbed a white stone and condescendingly began to roll call, and more than a dozen people were named in a row, and Qin Yan was also among them. Mu Chengxue handed out a thin booklet to everyone who was ordered, with three big characters written on the cover: "Demon Eradication". The ink in the book is still fresh, and it seems that it was copied overnight.

Qin Yan opened it and looked at it, and there was an old-fashioned story written in it, that is, the routine of a beautiful girl being captured by a monster and a young boy slaying demons and embracing a beauty commonly used in monster novels. He wondered how Lin Muyao could be interested in this kind of story, in reality, the son and brother of the prestigious family who pursued her could form an army, did she think it was more interesting to be captured by monsters?

After a while, when everyone had read the contents of the booklet, Lin Muyao said: "Everyone, the story we rehearsed a few days ago, because the tone was too sad, it was not very suitable for Daddy's 70th birthday, so I rearranged the script with Xue'er, and I bothered you to work hard, and rehearsed the play within these two days, and Miss Ben was rewarded afterwards!"

Qin Yan wanted to laugh a little. It turns out that a group of people under the eldest lady of the Lin family are engaged in these things all day long, and they really deserve sympathy! I don't know what Lin Ge Lao will think after seeing a poignant and touching love story between a young man and a woman appear at his birthday ceremony.

He asked He Zhongyi beside him in a low voice, "Has Lin Ge ever watched the drama of the eldest lady before?"

He Zhongyi looked at Lin Muyao on the slope without squinting, and replied in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "Master has seen it a few times, and he is full of praise every time. ”

"Oh-" Qin Yan couldn't help but smile. It turned out that one was willing to fight and the other was willing to suffer, as long as Lin Ge said that he liked it, would others dare to say that it was not good?

"Hey, the kid surnamed Qin, what are you muttering!" Lin Muyao noticed his small movements and glared fiercely, "You are the only novice among so many people, and you won't give me a good lecture! If you drag everyone down because of you, I will never spare you!"

Qin Yan hurriedly silenced his voice and put on a posture of listening carefully to the teachings.

Lin Muyao determined the actors of the characters in the play one by one. The heroine in the play will be played by the kind and beautiful Mu Chengxue, while Lin Muyao will play the role of a young man who kills demons and saves beauty in men's clothes, He Zhongyi has won the responsibility of being the villain boss because of his rough and vicious appearance, and Bai Lang plays a small boss under him. As for Qin Yan, the role he received was a complete villain. He will play another young man who is jealous of Lin Gongzi, this son plays all kinds of treachery between the hero and heroine, and when the monster boss attacks, he is scared to abandon the beauty and flee, after the male protagonist Lin Gongzi kills the little boss, he attracts the monster boss because of jealousy, causing the hero to almost die, and even sneak attack the male protagonist at the last moment...... In short, he is a character who should be cut with a thousand knives, and in the end, he died under Lin Gongzi's sword, which can be regarded as self-inflicted.

After seeing the role he was about to play, Qin Yan really had nothing to say. Miss Lin, no, Master Lin, could you have specially created a role for Young Master Ben and added it overnight, right? Haha, Young Master Ben has been running through the whole play, and the scenes are so sufficient, I really have to thank Master Lin for his love!

No matter how Qin Yan slandered, this play still began to be rehearsed in the mountains and flowers.

The first act went well. Lin Gongzi and Miss Mu met in the colorful season of Luoying, and admired each other at first sight, if it wasn't for the untimely insertion of the third party Qin Gongzi, it would have been a romantic and beautiful scene. It can be seen that under the influence of the eldest lady of the Lin family for many years, the acting skills of the people in the plum garden have reached a certain level, and even the entourage of the two sons can fully reflect the arrogant emotions of dogs fighting people and cold eyebrows. And as a character who has been mixed into the position of the chief disciple in the Po Sa Sect, Qin Yan's acting skills are not too bad. Everyone played their own strengths, and the first act passed directly without much difficulty.

But when it comes to the second act, the problem arises. In this scene, Qin Gongzi invited Lin Gongzi to a duel out of jealousy, and Lin Gongzi gladly responded to the battle, and the two fought with swords, one was smart and light, and the other was treacherous, which can be described as a chess opponent - but the difference was above the four words "treacherous". Qin Yan has been practicing swords since he was a child, pursuing a refined and practical way of swordsmanship, after so many years of training, swordsmanship has been a small success, every move and style are pure and simple, streamlined to the extreme, there are no superfluous tricks, absolutely and "treacherous" can not match-

"Stop!" Lin Muyao opened the sword he slashed at the head, jumped back out of the battle circle, and shouted loudly, "What's the matter with you, are you only going to sweep and slash these two moves? The croppers in the countryside are all better dancers than you! I told you a long time ago, you have to be tricky, you have to be vicious, you have to be weird, don't you brag and say, 'All your skills are on the sword', now that you have a sword in your hand, you can use your skills!"

Qin Yan replied, "I've done my best. "He did his best. In thousands of days and nights of cultivation, the posture, movement, and force of each sword swing have become instincts engraved in the body, accompanied by the rhythm of every breath. Every time Lin Muyao attacked with a sword, his body would automatically react and fight back in the most concise way. If you are fighting against a master of swordsmanship, you will find the horror hidden in his sword. When he blocked Lin Muyao's stabbing sword, it wasn't that he couldn't pull a sword flower, twist a bewitching gait, and go around to the left side of the other party to cut off her ear, but the countless nights that had wielded the pitch-black cold lightning did not allow him to betray his instincts, and he was not allowed to use such fancy and gorgeous but wasted swordsmanship to please an ignorant girl......

But Lin Muyao won't understand. She was very disappointed with the performance of Qin Gongzi, who was praised by the Butterfly Fairy as "superb sword skills", and although she was mentally prepared, she couldn't help but ridicule each other: "What a master Qin with superb swordsmanship, I really can't imagine how Sister Butterfly knew you, have you lived to a dog in the desert for so many years?"

Qin Yan suddenly changed color. Little girl, don't go too far, this young master's sword is used to kill, but it's not for you to play!

Mu Chengxue hurriedly walked between the two and persuaded: "Okay, okay, Yao'er, you don't have to say a few words." Qin Gongzi may not be good at this kind of fancy play, so let Big Brother Bai design a set/action for the two of you. ”

Lin Muyao snorted: "The mud can't support the wall!" Kid surnamed Qin, you keep your eyes open and see it clearly!"

Bai Lang came over in response, made a samurai salute to Lin Muyao, and without saying much, he pulled out his sword and attacked Lin Muyao. Lin Muyao shouted: "It's just in time!" raised his sword to greet him. The two of them fought in one place, one figure swayed and fluttered, advancing and retreating like the wind, the other was as fast as a charm, wonderful, only to see the sword light bursting, the killing was indistinguishable, dazzling to see, the scene was much more exciting than when Qin Yan was just now.

Qin Yan pursed his lips. In his eyes, this level of fighting was like a child's play, but the people who were watching it watched it with relish, and even Miss Mu Chengxue stared at the two figures in the field with wide eyes for a moment, as if they had forgotten to breathe.

Alas, ignorant fool, is this kind of fancy trick really so wonderful? Maybe the concept of "life and death can be seen in an instant" pursued by Young Master Ben is really not qualified to ascend to the Hall of Elegance......

Just as Lin Muyao and Bai Lang were fighting to a critical juncture, they suddenly heard a rough shout from the bottom of the hillside: "Miss...... Miss...... Haochengang is here!"

Lin Muyao and Bai Lang withdrew their swords almost at the same time, each taking a step back, and ending the struggle. Lin Muyao turned around and saw a little guy running over panting, and stammered, "Haochengang has arrived in the city...... Signing up...... It's almost there!"

Lin Muyao raised her eyebrows, and before she could speak, she saw Mu Chengxue walking in front of the little guy and asked, "Which ring did he go to?"

"The ring in the North City. ”

Mu Chengxue turned around and said, "It's still in time, Yao'er, let's go!"

Lin Muyao pursed her lips and said unhappily: "There's no need to go, it's just a preliminary selection now, and I can't see the strength at all, I can wait until after my father's birthday banquet to see it!"

Mu Chengxue was so anxious that she clenched her little fists: "No, I want to see it now, if you don't go, I'll leave alone!"

Lin Muyao hurriedly followed, and said with a smile: "There is really no way to take you! There are so many people on the street, and you look so unsafe, if you really go alone, I am afraid that you will be in the mouth of a tiger, and you will not be able to come back!"
