"What are you doing? Are you just sitting here without singing or dancing?" someone in the audience frowned.
"This session is called moon-viewing meditation, do you understand? Everyone will look at the moon for an hour, and then it will be over. Hahaha." Someone joked.
Some people frowned and scolded: "Why are you making noise? Can't you just watch it seriously? Can you have some patience?"
On the stage, a ray of light suddenly appeared, a ray of light fell from above and shone in the middle of the stage. A woman in white was standing up from the ground, bathed in a faint halo, with a graceful figure and picturesque eyebrows. Suddenly she grew taller
With his sleeves stretched out, he chanted softly and danced gracefully.
The girl was startled. She stood up in surprise and walked to the center of the stage, asking loudly: "Sister, who are you? I was admiring the moon by the water, why did I suddenly see you? Are you the fairy Chang'e who came down to earth in the middle of the moon?"
The woman in white stopped dancing, looked at the girl and said, "I am not Fairy Chang'e, I am the God of Luoshui."
"Luo Shen? Are you Luo Shen's concubine Mi?" the girl shouted in surprise.
"Exactly. On a moonlit night, I couldn't calm down. I danced under the moonlight, but unexpectedly you saw me." The woman in white said softly.
The girl smiled and said: "Are you really the Goddess of Luo? I don't believe it, maybe you lied to me. How did the God of Luo come to my West Lake in Hangzhou?"
The woman in white smiled and said: "Why are you lying to me? Thousands of rivers are connected to each other. I can appear wherever I want. Over the past thousands of years, I have traveled through countless rivers and lakes.
What’s so surprising?”
The girl was thoughtful and suddenly turned her head and asked: "Since you are the Goddess of Luo, let me ask you something. There was a Cao Zijian in the past, do you know him?"
The woman in white clothes said in a daze: "What...are you asking him for?"
"He said that he had met you and composed a "Luo Shen Fu" for you. I want to confirm whether this is true or not. For hundreds of years, people have said that this is false and that he is a liar.
"But I don't believe it. How could such a beautiful encounter and such a beautiful article be fake? You said you are Luo Shen, so tell me." The girl tilted her head and asked.
The woman in white smiled slightly and said softly: "Little sister, no wonder you are sitting alone under the moon. Do you have a lover in your heart? You are worried in your heart, so you are looking at the moon and thinking about him?"
The girl said shyly: "I just ask you whether the meeting between you and Cao Zijian is true. Why did you ask me about it? Someone told me that there is no such beautiful thing in the world, but I believe it. You tell me,
Was that encounter real?"
The woman in white was pacing with her hands behind her hands. Suddenly she looked back and whispered softly: "It's true. I met him, but we missed him."
"Is it true? That's great. I really want to know what happened that day. Luo Shen, can you tell me what happened?" the girl asked, clapping her hands.
"You little girl really likes to inquire. I remember everything about that day. It was a rare good time for me. Apart from that, it was endless loneliness. It was the happiest moment in my life. How could I forget it?
That’s it.” The woman in white sighed.
"I really want to know what happened that day." The girl said.
"You want to know?" The woman in white giggled, and suddenly said loudly: "It's very easy. I can take you to see someday. My divine power allows me to do this, and I often do it. Come on,
I’ll take you to have a look.”
The woman in white stretched out her hand to hold the girl's hand. Their clothes were fluttering and their bodies suddenly began to slide. After a moment, their figures disappeared behind the scenes. All the lights on the stage were extinguished, and everything returned to darkness.
…
Everyone in the audience stared at all this in stunned silence, and soon someone shouted dissatisfied: "What is this? Is this considered a performance? What kind of fame does Qunfang Pavilion have? Does it embarrass Hangzhou?"
"That's it, what is this? Two people have been talking nonsense for a long time, who will listen to this? What is going on?"
While the common people were complaining to the dark stage, the VIP seats were also in chaos. Shen Fang and Liu Sheng covered their mouths to hold back their laughter and winked at Wu Chunlai. Looking at the prince and his son, their faces were as black as the bottom of a pot, and they stretched out their hands. They could catch a handful of dark clouds. They never expected that after a long time of fussing, Lin Jue would come up with such a thing. Although they vaguely felt that this should not be the case, they had to believe it after seeing it with their own eyes.
"This Lin Jue is playing tricks on us, he just wants to embarrass us. This bitch, my palace has lost all face today." Guo Kun gritted his teeth and cursed angrily in a low voice.
Yan Zheng solemnly frowned and said: "Little Prince, you have to believe Lin Jue. Can't you see that this is just a lead? Those idiots can't see that this is a lead, so they cursed indiscriminately. Is the Young Prince the same as those people? ignorance?"
"Introduction?" Guo Bing asked.
Before Yan Zhengsu could answer, his eyes were suddenly stung by the flashing light in front of him. When he turned around hurriedly, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
The dark, ugly, ruin-like three-story stage suddenly changed its appearance in an instant. It was as if thousands of lights were suddenly lit up, and the entire stage was filled with light in an instant. Red, green, and blue. Purple, green, pink, yellow, and colorful lights swayed on the stage, and colorful light beams shot from all directions of the stage toward the lake, toward the crowd, and into the night sky.
The music sounded as the lights turned on, and it was the sound of ancient music, brilliant and solemn, mysterious and sacred. As the colored lights circulated, a water curtain suddenly fell from the top of the three-story stage, covering all sides of the stage. It was covered by the light. Patterns suddenly appeared on the shining water curtain, including countless colorful phoenixes, peacocks, lark and other birds. On the flowing and bright water curtain, these patterns were smart and colorful, as if they were really flapping their wings and flying in the sky. Normal in the air.
Everyone was stunned and stunned. They had never seen such a glorious scene, and had never seen such a wonderful scene. What appeared before them seemed to be the legendary realm of gods, with hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix, and the elegant sound, which made people feel full. Trembling, so excited that I can hardly breathe.
"Oh my God!"
"How is this done? How can this be presented?"
"If I can see the scene before my eyes in this life, I will die without regrets."
Many people burst into tears of excitement, and many people forgot that this was an artificial scene. They knelt down and worshiped the water palace surrounded by crystal birds.
…
On the second floor of the stage, Lin Jue stood next to the curtain in the first corner. In front of him was a row of dark bamboo tubes. These bamboo tubes extended along the outline of the stage to all corners of the stage. They extended to the top and bottom of the stage. This is a simple sound transmission device. It is a microphone used by Lin Jue to have an overview of the overall situation and direct the operations of personnel at each node. Of course, when he needs to issue instructions, he only needs to approach the microphone to give an order, and the sound has been hollowed out in the middle. The bamboo tube can be clearly transmitted to every corner, and the people there will start to act according to the order.
All the mechanisms, lighting and scenery of the entire stage are under the control of Lin Jue. Although it is not as advanced as the technology on earth in later generations, controlling people's movements can still achieve the effect. Although it is a bit more cumbersome, with enough manpower, money and materials
Under enough circumstances, it was enough for Lin Jue to achieve the results he wanted.
This kind of stage effect was so good that even Lin Jue had not expected it. Although Lin Jue had done a small-scale test in the black curtain before, it was only to test whether it could operate smoothly, and it was not at all as comprehensive as it was now.
The effect. Lin Jue was very satisfied with it.
Colored light is not difficult, but how to gather the light source to create the effect of strong light sweeping around is difficult. Even if there is a concave mirror focusing method, it is difficult for the light to achieve the required brightness and intensity under the existing light source. For this reason,
Lin Jue put a lot of thought into it. Finally, he found inspiration from the fireworks workshop. Therefore, the strong light was not candlelight or other lights, but burning special gunpowder fuses mixed with loess.
The gunpowder fuse can emit strong sparks, but it will never burn out suddenly, let alone explode. This is the light source Lin Jue needs.
But obviously this kind of thing cannot be used too much, otherwise there will be huge dangers, and the smoke will affect the effect. If you want to have the effect of thousands of lights and the entire Taiwan is bright, and if there are colored lights lingering in all directions, at least several
With thousands of such light sources, this is absolutely impossible. So Lin Jue installed smooth lenses in all directions of the stage to allow the light to refract back and forth between the lenses. This used dozens of light sources to create a sky full of light.
A fairyland-like effect.
As for the water curtain, that is not a problem at all. A large amount of lake water has been stored manually in the huge water tanks at the top and four corners of the third floor. When Lin Jue gave the order, all the sluices were opened, and the water flowed into the thick water curtains laid along the top four sides.
The bottom of the bamboo tube has been drilled every millimeter according to the test data. When the water flows down, a water curtain is formed on all sides. After the water falls, it will be slightly deformed and affected by the breeze tonight.
Fluctuating, this is exactly the effect Lin Jue needs. Because it can make the projection move on the water screen. The way the bird spreads its wings seems to be flapping its wings and flying gracefully.
In fact, all this is not a difficult thing at all on the earth in future generations, but to present such a wonderful scene, Lin Jue did not know how many brain cells died and how much thinking was spent.
…
At the judges' table and in the front row of the VIP table, everyone stared blankly at the scene in front of them, their jaws about to drop.
"How did Lin Jue do it? Such a scene is simply unbelievable." Liang Wang Guo Bing sighed in surprise.
"Yes, it's unbelievable, it's unbelievable." Yan Zhengshen also sighed loudly.
Guo Caiwei had returned to sit next to Prince Liang and his son. She was so beautiful at the scene in front of her that she cried. Although she had heard Lin Jue say before what kind of effect it would have in the end. But Guo Caiwei was actually very worried. She always felt that Lin Jue's
The idea was a bit too whimsical, and I'm afraid it might not turn out as he wished. However, the scene in front of him at this moment was even more shocking and stunning than what Lin Jue had described. Guo Caiwei was truly amazed.
The wonderful scene in front of me only lasted less than thirty breaths. After all, using gunpowder as a light source could not last long, and the light and shadow of the water curtain could not last too long. The amount of water was limited, and the water curtain could not last too long. When the light and shadow of the water curtain dimmed,
, when the stage in the water returned to darkness, everyone in the audience breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had had a beautiful dream.
The lights on the stage were turned on again, and the lights looked so soft at this time. Although it was also the light from more than a hundred lanterns, such bright light also seemed much softer in contrast to the previous scene.
Several huge screens stood at the entrance of the stage, blocking everyone's view. Then the screens suddenly lit up, and someone soon discovered that there were colorful paintings painted on the screens.
"Is that... Luo Shen Fu?" At the judging table, the great painter Yan Daoan recognized the content of the painting at a glance and shouted excitedly.
"Indeed, it seems to be a copy." Several people nearby also recognized it immediately.
"Of course it is a copy. Although it is not expressive and exquisite, I have never seen any precedent of this being used as a screen. It must have been specially painted for this performance. It took a lot of thought." Yan Dao'an sighed.
On the stage, several tulle screens slowly moved toward both sides of the stage, like a big curtain slowly opening. Then, the scene on the stage became clear. On the huge background, there were vast green mountains and faint green water, creating a beautiful scene.
scene.
A group of people gathered around a carriage and slowly came onto the stage. On the carriage sat a handsome man with fluttering clothes and a refreshing mood. A group of people came to the middle of the stage, and the handsome man asked loudly: "Left and right, Luoshui
Are you here yet?”
A servant pointed forward and said: "Master, Luoshui has arrived."
Before he finished speaking, the floor of the entire stage began to slide to both sides. The people in the audience were surprised when they saw a huge hole in the middle of the stage. The water ripples sparkled under the lights, and it actually turned out to be flowing water.
The young man walked to the water's edge and splashed his eyes in the water. Suddenly, the calm water surface began to stir up water, and something seemed to be swimming in the water waves. Suddenly, under the shining golden light, strange and colorful creatures emerged from the water.
Beasts. A golden salmon with wings and the head of a leopard and the body of a fish, a gigantic whale salamander with a huge mouth and a huge mouth. A huge sea dragon with a horse face and the body of an antelope. The strange beasts are tumbling up and down on the water, causing waves to surge and splashing waves.
The young master stood on the shore in astonishment in a daze, while the servants around him were sitting and lying down, as if they were unaware.
After a while, fairy music and elegant sounds were heard all over the place. In the darkness of the water waves, a fragrant breeze overflowed. A woman with high temples and colorful sleeves came stepping on the waves. At the same time, flowers were blooming on the water, and the green mountains in the background were also in full bloom.
A sea of brilliant flowers.
The woman stood on the water waves without sinking. When she saw the young man standing on the shore, she seemed to be surprised. The young man was already staring at the woman in stunned silence, not knowing where she was.
.
The woman seemed to be angry at the young man's rudeness and was about to leave. The young man woke up and bowed his hands in salute. The woman stopped and turned to look at the young man. The two looked at each other for a long time. Suddenly the woman smiled brightly, her jade arms
Wherever he waved, the water surged up and a huge spray appeared under his feet.
The waves were getting higher and higher. The woman's feet stepped on the waves, and her body slowly rose up, as if she was standing on the top of the waves and standing in the air.
The spectators in the audience were all dumbfounded. Many people had actually recognized that the woman was Gu Panpan, but at a certain moment they had forgotten Gu Panpan's identity and really regarded her as a goddess.
. Because something so contrary to common sense, such as riding on the waves and riding on the waves, happened on the stage and right in front of their eyes. Many people thought they were dreaming or had gone crazy.
In the midst of the fairy music, the woman on the waves started to dance happily. Her long sleeves were fluttering, her ribbons were like the wind, her feet touched the water, and her body made all kinds of incredible jumps and turns on the waves. Her eyes were at every turn.
He glanced at the young master on the stage, his eyes full of affection, and he had completely integrated into the scene.
Although everyone understands that there is something fishy in this, how can a person dance on the waves and make so many moves that are impossible on the ground, but they would rather believe that this is true. They have forgotten
Knowing that this was a performance, they had regarded all of this as the situation truly described in the famous film. No one knew whether Cao Zijian's encounter with the goddess Luo Shui was true or false, and at this moment they would rather believe that such an encounter really happened.
Because everything in front of them is really happening in front of them, and they are all bystanders.
After a series of difficult dances, Gu Panpan finally slowly stopped dancing and slowly returned to his previous aloof state, with his eyes firmly locked on the young master.
The young master knelt on the stage, raised his hands to the sky, and made a gesture of supplication. Gu Panpan's face showed pain, and he looked into his eyes, with sadness in his eyes. Suddenly the woman's sleeves were waving, and the birds and phoenixes were chirping beside her, as if they were in the clouds.
.The woman raised her head to the sky, her body rose into the air, slowly flew towards the dark corner above the stage, and disappeared without a trace.
The waves subsided and everything returned to calm. The young man ran along the river and finally fell to the ground, lost in thought.
A group of servants rushed over and helped the young master up. The young master trembled to an old servant: "Did you see it? Did you see everything just now?"
The old servant said in astonishment: "What did you see?"
The young master said: "What? Didn't you see it? That woman just now was so beautiful and moving. She was dancing on the waves, surrounded by auspicious clouds and auspicious beasts. Who is she?"
The old man was stunned for a long time and said: "I heard that there is a goddess named Mi Fei in Luoshui. The immortals in the world can see her by washing their eyes in Luoshui. Could it be that the young master saw the goddess? Please tell us how she looks.
What's it like?"
The young master opened his mouth to speak, but hesitated. After pondering for a long time, he slowly wrote with his fingers empty. On the stage background, as the young master wrote, lines of ink-dyed characters appeared in front of people.
"...its shape is as graceful as a startling giant, as graceful as a swimming dragon, with brilliant autumn chrysanthemums and luxuriant spring pine trees. It looks like the moon covered by light clouds, and flutters like snow blown by the flowing wind. Looking at it from a distance, it is bright and clear.
If the sun rises as morning glow, if you look closely at it, it will shine like a flower growing out of Lubo. The stalks are slender and shortened to fit. If the shoulders are cut into shape, the waist is as plain as it should be. The neck is stretched and the neck is long, and the luster is exposed. The fragrance is not added, and the lead is beautiful.
Fu Yu. Yun bun E'e, trimming eyebrows and joints.... Bright eyes are good at gazing, dimples assist in power, beautiful appearance, quiet demeanor and leisurely body. Tender and graceful, charming in words... Brilliant in robes
, Eryao and Bi Hua Ju. Wearing gold and green jewelry, embellished with pearls to dazzle the body. Walking on the shoes for traveling far away, dragging the light skirt of matte silk. The faint fragrance of orchid is gentle, and the steps are hesitant in the corner of the mountain. Then suddenly Yan Zong
The body is used to fly and play. It leans on the Caiyan on the left and shades the laurel flag on the right. It wanders through the Divine Margin with its bright wrists and collects the mysterious mushrooms in the turbulent sea..."
The stage turned and closed, the water surface disappeared, and the young master and his group also disappeared behind the scenes. When the lights on the stage were extinguished and the fire came back on, the woman in white and the girl in green were already sitting side by side in front of the stage.
The girl in green clothes said in surprise: "Did you really take me to see the scene with Cao Zijian just now? So are you really Mi Fei? The God of Heluo?"
The woman in white smiled and said: "If you still don't believe it at this time, there is nothing I can do. You have seen it all."
The girl thought for a moment and suddenly said: "Sister Goddess, do you like Cao Zijian?"
The woman in white looked up at the moon and said softly: "There are immortal talents in the world. If a person like him is rare to see in a lifetime, I will naturally like him."
"Then why don't you stay with him and let him leave only regrets? Since you love each other, why don't you stay together happily? Is it because humans and gods have different paths?" the girl cried.
The woman in white shook her head and said: "There are eight sufferings for people: birth, old age, illness, death, separation from love, meeting with resentment, not being able to ask for something, and not being able to let go. If you can't understand everything, everything in the world will be suffering. In fact, Cao Zijian and I have been together for a long time.
, we have been together for thousands of years, just not as you imagined. Just like I took you back to watch that scene tonight, I have watched that scene countless times, I
I have never been separated from him."
The girl in green clothes was silent, nodding her head half-understanding.
The woman in white smiled and said: "Little sister, you don't understand yet, but one day you will understand. I'm leaving."
The girl in green clothes hurriedly asked: "Can I still see my sister?"
The woman in white smiled and said: "Let me sing you a song. I can travel through the present and ancient times, and even future generations. Some future generations composed a song "The Lament of Immortals" for a meeting by the Luoshui River. I will sing it to you. Just think of it as
Farewell to you."
The girl nodded, took out a pipa in the darkness, and played it gently. The woman in white stood up and sang softly:
"The wind blows in the Han River, by the Luoshui River, a startling giant appears, the clouds and the moon are shy. The blue hair is slightly stranded, the bright eyes are kind, looking at each other from a distance, the soul is lingering in dreams. However, the rumors, the deterioration is replaced by the resentment of others, and Missing Qing is no longer angry, stupid and drunk.
Dreams fell from my pillow to entertain me in the old years. Immortals appeared in front of the Bronze Sparrow Platform. Everyone sighed and the waves surged."
"Same roots are fried, seven steps are difficult. Returning east to Juan, don't be crazy and don't think about it. There are no words across the river. Even though the road is different, the love is hard to break. The nightmare of reincarnation chatters, and I am alone and empty. The thin clouds make the long night recall the passing years, and we say goodbye.
It is difficult to see the relationship of hatred when it is broken. I lament with tears that people are flying far away, and I am speechless in shame. I hate that the wild geese are flying south, and I have no place to hold my grudges. When wine enters my throat, it cuts my teary eyes. A separation becomes a bond of hatred and it is difficult to break it.
We continue to see suffering, we sigh bitterly and yearn for each other and become resentful, we have run out of wine and shed tears, this life is already gone. When the frost is gone, the lonely moon is cold, and the fate has not arisen yet, it has already disappeared."
The song was ethereal and endless, and the body of the woman in white flew up like a white crane into the air, disappearing into the darkness.
The lights in the entire venue were turned off, and there was silence. However, the moonlight was spreading to the earth like water, and the lake was rippling with sparkling light. Tens of thousands of people in the audience sat silently, as if they had had a weird dream.
After a while, the applause erupted and lasted for a long time.
(It is recommended to watch the episode of National Treasure Luo Shen Fu Tu. The song "Xian Cai Tan" is very nice. That's where the inspiration for this chapter came from.)
