"As this young master approaches, my senior officials have a few words to say to the young master."
The captain in green clothes clasped his fists and said in the direction of Jia Fei.
Jia Fei nodded, completely ignoring the two black-clad servants behind him who were blocking his retreat. He cleared his throat secretly, raised his feet and stepped forward.
The curtain on the side of the rather spacious carriage was opened at a corner, and Jia Fei, who had already noticed it, turned a blind eye to it.
"Where are your high-ranking officials? Hurry up and talk about it. I'll still have to find a boat to get on my way."
Jia Fei said to the captain in green.
"Who are you? Why is there a sparrow hidden in your arms?"
The captain in green clothes closed his eyes and asked. Jia Fei, who was opposite him, froze when he heard this and said slightly surprised:
"You can see it with your eyes closed? Amazing!"
On the surface, the Qingyi captain was unmoved, but a slight snort in his nose actually reached Cheng Yu's ears.
This cat demon hung out with the troupe for a while, pretending to be surprised, not serious or serious, but quite natural, without showing any signs of acting, and his acting skills have really improved a lot.
What Cheng Yu didn't know was that the cat demon was actually a little surprised at this time, but it was not because of the captain in green, but because of Cheng Yu's enchantment formation, facing Mu Xing at such a close distance.
A cultivating monk can actually completely cover his own demonic aura.
You must know that at this time, she was a Xuanmu spirit body, and in Qianjiang Fucheng, she was even seen through by the great demon of the Mu Xing Yuanshen realm at a glance.
Although I don’t know the level of the Jinwu Guard across from me at this time, the fluctuation of spiritual power that I just sensed upstairs is probably similar, if not as good as that of the Yuanshen Realm Great Demon.
But facing such a monk, she was regarded as a mortal in Cheng Yu's barrier.
And not only that, you must know that Cheng Yu has been casting barrier spells at this time, but the Jin Wuwei opposite did not see any signs of spiritual power fluctuations in his eyes, and only recognized it as an ordinary sparrow. p>
"To be honest, I am a disciple of a pear garden. Although the sparrow in my arms is ordinary, it can be regarded as... I have always made friends."
Jia Fei almost said that the sparrow was his beloved pet, but in a sudden change of mind, he was deeply afraid that the word pet would offend the sparrow immortal in his arms, so he had to change the word to his best friend.
The captain in Qingyi didn't say much anymore, because everyone knows that there are many weird people in the opera troupe. On weekdays, there are many and mixed people in the troupe. There are many intrigues and intrigues, and it is difficult to have a true heart-to-heart.
Therefore, most actors like to keep some pets to relieve their boredom, and there are many people who depend on them for their lives, which is not surprising.
At this time, the carriage door curtain opened, and a brocade boot took the lead to step out of the carriage.
"What does this little friend from the Liyuan do?"
His Highness who came out of the carriage asked first. The boy holding incense next to him wanted to ask, but when he saw that His Highness had already spoken, he remained silent with only a twinkle in his eye.
Jia Fei looked at the questioner and saw that he was wearing a purple robe, with a round face and a long beard neatly combed.
"I am Wu Sheng."
The cat demon cupped his fists and said.
"Why are you alone in this restaurant with no ferry crossing?"
"To be honest, I originally wanted to come here to find a boat back to Beijing, but I didn't know anything had happened until I got to the ferry. No one was there and I was hungry, so I went to the restaurant to find some food."
"Oh? Do you want to go back to Beijing? Judging from your clothes, you seem to be a young master from some aristocratic family in Beijing, but your accent doesn't sound like him."
"I am indeed not from the capital... I went to the capital just to look for my old relatives, but I haven't contacted them for a long time, and I don't know if I can find them."
Jia Fei hesitated, originally she wanted to say a few words in the capital's Mandarin, but when she first opened her mind, the Qian family was already the fourth and fifth generation head of the family who had been demoted from the capital, and their Mandarin was already difficult to speak.
Fei didn't even remember much. After more than three hundred years of baptism, she could no longer remember it.
His Highness and Jia Fei were chatting with great interest, completely ignoring the obvious or hidden loopholes in each other's words, and said gently:
"Since you are a disciple of Liyuan, do you have any troupe companions?"
"I am..."
Jia Fei was about to say that he was alone here, when he suddenly heard Cheng Yu's message:
Someone else is coming from behind.
She turned around and looked around, but she saw that the theater troupe had already arrived near the ferry in a cart. The old man in black next to His Highness was only a breath later than Cheng Yu. He also heard the sound of wheels in the distance.
With a glance, four of the servants galvanized their horses and whipped their whips and headed towards the troupe.
‘No! The theater troupe is also following us. If we really take action here, wouldn’t we be throwing a tantrum?’
The cat demon spoke to Cheng Yu in the sea of consciousness.
"Hey! With the Immortal here, with the cultivation of these three-legged cats in front of you, what's the point of fearing if they really take action?"
Jiao Didi from Hu Meizi in the demon pill interjected.
At this time, the four healthy servants had led the carriage in which the theater troupe was riding. His Highness looked at the people in the carriage and the various gongs and drums players, squinting his eyes slightly and saying nothing.
The green-clothed Jinwu guard next to him "stared" in the direction of the visitor for a while, then turned to face the boy next to His Highness. He stopped talking and instead made gestures.
"Reporting to the high officials, the group opposite is all mortals, and except for the woman in front of me who is disguised as a man, there are no peaceful martial arts people. There are a few sharp swords in the luggage, and the rest are all
The gongs, drums and props must be from a real theater troupe."
The boy leaned close to His Highness and whispered, but since there were outsiders present at the moment, for the sake of caution, he changed his name to a high official.
"Haha, good! It's very interesting. I guess this theater troupe came here to find friends. I never thought that I could meet a whole theater troupe at this deserted pier. It's wonderful! It's wonderful." After His Highness finished speaking, he looked towards the side of the pier and found that there was actually a stage there. He stroked his beard and said with a smile:
"If you have nothing to do at the moment, you might as well listen to a night drama to relieve your boredom."
After saying that, he glanced at Jia Fei, and without waiting for a reply, he led the people towards the theater troupe.
At this time, everyone in the theater troupe had been "herded" to the open area of the pier by several black-clad servants. The director and deputy troupe saw the daughter of a martial arts practitioner dressed as a man, walking towards this side surrounded by a group of black-clad servants.<
/p>
From that group of people, two more people stepped out quickly and walked quickly to the theater. Jia Fei recognized these two people as the two people who had just gone to the restaurant to look for him.
"Where is the class leader? We senior officials want a show."
The one who spoke was the servant in black who jumped up to the eaves and couldn't help but make a noise outside the window.
The class leader looked at the two people across from him, and then at the formation of the group of people behind him. Since he didn't dare to show his head, he gently pushed the huqin player and pushed him out of the crowd.
"Oh... this... hehe! Gentlemen, please forgive me. It's getting late now, and the kids are unprepared. If we start the show in a hurry, we might offend the gentlemen."
Under the night, the old luthier handled it carefully with a smile on his face, while pulling the drummer behind him to his side, holding his arm to encourage himself.
"Ah...yes, yes, there is something special about night shows. If you are not careful, you can easily attract those...those things. You must know this..."
When the black-clothed servant heard this, he glanced at the drummer one more time and remained silent with a cold face.
Suddenly there was a soft sound of "Whoosh!", and a silver arc jumped over the head of the black-clothed servant, piercing the dark night sky and heading towards the old luthier.
The old luthier's arms sank intuitively. He looked down and saw a large silver ingot worth fifty taels being thrown into the luthier's arms.
The class leader who was hiding behind the violinist had quick eyes and quick hands. He rushed forward without waiting for the violinist to react and grabbed the money from the opponent's hand. His skill did not seem to be injured.
"Can't you sing?"
A boy holding an incense burner walked out of the crowd opposite and asked in a childish voice.
"You can sing well! You can sing well! I wonder which song you guys want to listen to?"
The boy ducked back into the crowd and turned around after a few seconds:
"Singing what this great martial artist is best at is hilarious."
The boy pointed at Jia Fei who had returned to the troupe and said.
……
"Bang! Bang up, bang up! Bang!"
The sound of gongs and drums suddenly sounded in the silent dock.
The Qianyuanzhou Pier, which had always been brightly lit in the past, was now dark. Only oil lamps and torches were lit on a stage next to the pier, like a small boat floating in a deep ocean.
On the roofs of several buildings next to the stage, there are several men in black standing or squatting, always looking at the dock below and its surroundings.
"Master, why do I see something wrong with the posture outside?"
The old violinist muttered to the class leader in the background. The class leader looked quite rosy at this time. Except for the fact that his leg was still limping, the rest of his injuries seemed to be healed.
"Look at the appearance of each of them, are they correct? If you look carefully, the middle one is protected by two circles of guards. In addition to the little boy, there are five people wearing different clothes surrounding him.
Circle around, and outside there is another group of people dressed in black, plus the open whistles and hidden whistles on the front and back rooms. Ouch, this person has quite a lot of background...
Alas, if I had known this, I shouldn’t have come looking for this aunt just now.”
Hearing this, the violinist turned away and secretly pouted, but the class leader didn't know and continued:
"But having said that, we have taken people's money, and we are doing a job based on people's faces. We only have this bowl of rice. We can't run away at this time, so we have to get ready quickly... Oh, my aunt,
My great heroine, what kind of trouble are you going to make?"
In the first half of the class, the leader was talking to the old violinist, and in the second half, he was talking to Jia Fei.
Jia Fei, who was leaning against each other, was unhappy when he heard this and said:
"Shh! Shut up! What a heroine, I am a young master now."
When the class leader heard this, he lightly slapped himself on the mouth and hurriedly changed his words:
"My eldest son, eldest master, why do you keep getting married?"
Jia Fei had just tied up the four flags behind his back and looked at the class leader in confusion:
"Aren't you going to have a night show?"
"Where do you always want to sing?"
"The third time you enter the palace, don't you want to watch a lively martial arts show? I am most familiar with this part."
"Oh, my dear aunt, oh no, my dear grandfather! This big excerpt of the third entry into the palace was sung at dawn, and how could you have time to show up now?
Please listen to me this time and let us sing Bawangling for him. This play is short and lively. It is still a short play and there is no need to tie it up. You can just clean it up and just go on stage as a martial artist Xiangjun."
Jia Fei hesitated after hearing this:
"Bawangling? Is that the one I just learned a few days ago?"
"That's right, there just isn't much singing in this play, the most important thing is just that part:
With the bang of the cannon, the thieves were all over the hills."
"Oh, but what about the story: A strong man took off his armor and returned home after joining the army. He passed by a ridge on the way and was ambushed by bandits on the ridge. During the fight, he was spotted by the mountain king's girl and insisted on forcing him to get married? Okay, this drama is interesting.
If that's the case, then go ahead and submit the playbill."
The class leader agreed and limped away from the stage holding a tray containing the playbill.
'This night show is a bit weird. Please be careful on stage and don't act too exaggerated. I'm on the eaves of the stage. As long as you are within the scope of the stage, the barrier will be enough to protect you.'<
/p>
Cheng Yu communicated through the air machine.
Jia Fei promised from the bottom of his heart: 'As long as you are here, I have nothing to fear.'
Cheng Yu suddenly changed his tone:
'In addition, although the barrier covers your demonic spiritual power, and although the other party only recognizes you as a mortal, the captain in green still sees that you are a woman disguised as a man, and has informed the highness in the middle.'
‘Ah? Could it be that that His Highness is coveting me...my...'
"Pfft! Hahaha! Girl, you're overthinking it. There are so many people on the other side, and they only recognize you as a mortal. If they really covet your beauty, I'm afraid they would have swarmed you, and you would have already been in a group."
Hu Meizi joked in the demon pill.
"You mean I'm not beautiful enough?"
Jia Fei replied coldly.
"Beautiful is beautiful, but the only thing missing is that charming spirit. My sister is very knowledgeable in the art here. I only need to teach her a few tricks, and I can guarantee that she will kill all the strong men in this world."
,Hehe..."
"Bah!"
Jia Fei spat out Hu Meizi and subconsciously glanced at the little sparrow on the eaves high up.
"Squeak... twist..."
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
It just so happened that at this time, the luthier and drummers were practicing to warm up, so Jia Fei immediately turned his head and looked in the direction of the luthier.
But I saw that the class leader had just rushed back to the backstage, took out a two-finger-thick firecracker from the luggage box, handed it to the deputy class leader and said:
"It's still the old rule, just before the clatter of the cannon goes off, light the firecrackers."
"Hey! You are familiar with the road, don't worry."
……
"Don't tell me, look at this martial artist who is disguised as a man. Not only does his martial arts look different from that of a girl, but he also has an attitude that is not inferior to that of a man."
His Highness looked at Jia Fei playing with guns and flowers on the stage, and said softly to the boy holding incense.
At the end, he gave the other party a wink. The boy nodded slightly, walked quietly to the captain in Qingyi and asked in a low voice:
"You can see clearly just now that the martial artist on the stage is indeed a woman disguised as a man, and he is a mortal?"
The captain in Qingyi was silent when he heard the words. He looked straight through his nostrils and exhaled softly. After a few breaths, he reluctantly nodded.
The boy holding the incense paid no attention to the situation. He raised his head and looked around, then slowly walked back to His Highness.
"Okay!"
After His Highness exchanged a look with the boy, his interest in watching the play increased greatly. He actually shouted "Hello" when he saw the highlight, causing several black-clothed servants nearby to turn their heads and look sideways. Among them, there was even one who was suddenly seen.
The cheers made me tremble.
‘Jia Fei, one of the people below seems not quite right.’
Cheng Yu, who was standing on the eaves and monitoring every move under his feet, said in a voice message.
‘Which one?’
‘Behind His Highness the captain in yellow, on the left side, there was a strong servant in black. Although he was motionless, his eyes were wandering and a thin layer of sweat had broken out on his forehead.’
"Boom!"
As soon as the drum sounded, Jia Fei stood up and froze in the field, and looked for the audience. At a glance, she recognized that this person was the black-clothed servant who had jumped up to the eaves and stood guard outside the window when she was hiding in the restaurant.
.
‘Maybe you feel unwell?’
Jia Fei responded, and Cheng Yu shook his head gently. Just now he could see clearly from a high place, and His Highness shouted, and most of the others turned around to look, but he was the only one who was trembling with fright.'
"Dong dong dong dong dong dong!"
Accompanied by the intense beat of gongs and drums, Jia Fei, who had finished his performance, began to walk again. When he reached the stage, he took three clean steps, followed by the aria "Crack la la cannon!"
She paused here deliberately, waiting for the sound of simulated firecrackers exploding in the background, which was specially instructed by the class teacher before teaching drama.
"Ding...ding..."
Hmm?
A very slight sound of metal collision faintly came into Cheng Yu's ears. The sound seemed to be the sound of ringing. Even Cheng Yu, who had an excellent ear, could only barely hear it. Even he had a hint of doubt.
I heard it wrong...
While maintaining the barrier formation, he spread his wings and flew to the highest point of the stage, looking up into the distance.
It was dark outside the ferry, and there was a mist all around. At this time, even the surface of the river could not be seen clearly.
"Ding bell! Ding bell!"
This time Cheng Yu heard it clearly, it was indeed a string of crisp ringtones, much clearer than before.
Not only him, but also the captain in black who was protecting His Highness heard it. He trembled slightly and turned his head to look in the direction of Suzune.
Cheng Yu secretly became alert because the ringtone came at an incredibly fast speed. The first ringtone was still far away from the sky, but the second ringtone was already close to the ferry terminal.
At this time, the stage was still full of drama. Jia Fei put up a pergola and pretended to look around. The plot of the play was already at the foot of Bawang Ridge, and the cannons were about to be fired and the ambush was coming.
"Bang!"
A cannon shot came as promised backstage, but the Huqin shaker that was supposed to sound immediately afterwards was muted. Instead, there was a sudden loud shout from the audience:
"Destroy Jin!"
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－－
Thanks to Book Friends: Monthly Pass for Comparative Anatomy of Vertebrates, and thank you all for your recommendation and support.
By the way, let me digress: I haven’t updated for a long time. I am really busy. The newly opened store has not improved, and the work I am taking on has changed again and again. This chapter was originally written the day before yesterday, but after finishing it
After intensive revision, I found that the second half was not the case. The more I read, the more wrong it became, so I simply deleted it and rewrote it. I don’t have a manuscript saved now, only an outline and a semi-detailed outline of the following chapter in Beijing, so I wrote every chapter
I have to think carefully about it, so that there will always be Taoist friends who care about whether I have any more.
Yes!
In the past, I haven't done many things that gave up halfway, but I haven't done many things, but this time I won't do it, not for anything else, just because there are still a few book friends chasing after this book, and I want to give it to you.
An explanation is also an explanation for myself.
No need to be too verbose, I won’t work overtime today, so I’ll just go and code the next chapter.
