372. The Mysterious Three Handmaids and the Happy Fowler
Under the intense and urgent music, the black curtain was opened in a cloud of smoke.
The lamppost passed through the smoke and dimly presented a corner of the stage in front of the audience.
A young prince is avoiding the pursuit of the monster behind him.
In the orchestra pit below the stage, Qin Jian pressed his hands slightly to signal the orchestra to lower the volume.
The moment the entire orchestra's volume dropped, another set of lampposts shot out, dispersing more smoke.
This time people can see it more clearly.
The desperate prince looked anxious:
-Help me! -Help me!
-Otherwise I'm doomed!
He walked to the center of the stage and sang wailingly.
Tense strings highlight his desire to be rescued, even though he is a prince.
-It's getting closer!
-It's getting closer!
-Help me quickly!
Rolling to avoid the monster's attack, this scene earned the actor who played Tamino a lot of praise from the audience.
He sang this line perfectly while rolling around, and then he turned his eyes, as if he had found a life-saving straw, and ran towards a vague cave.
At the same time, the stage background curtain was switched again.
Aixi Temple looks particularly quiet under the moonlight.
"Dong dong dong - dong dong -"
The sound of the timpani, carrying victory and hope, powerfully shook away the fog behind the three rockeries.
The poor prince had fainted at the cave door.
Under a high half-moon.
The three attendants of the Night Queen walked out of the temple side by side, one meter apart, with their right hands raised high.
They have charming faces and devilish buns.
Wrapped in a black silk robe with mysterious patterns of gold threads——
They sang:
-Die, monster, look at my power!
Sonorous and powerful pronunciation.
‘Boom!!!’
As he waved his hands, there was a shocking thunder.
The next second.
The monster in front of the mountains seemed to have been enchanted by the night, and fell down, falling heavily to the ground.
Qin Jian's eyes narrowed, he opened his hands and waved vigorously, making a sound of victory at this moment.
The majestic major triad was like victorious soldiers, coming in groups and parading around the entire concert hall for a week with their heads held high.
-victory!
-victory!!
-victory!!!
-The heroic act was successful!
The three maids of the Night Queen strolled up to the fainting prince.
-Our divine power saved him!
They continued to sing.
After the trumpet of victory was blown, it turned into soothing and soft string music. The three night queens' maids seemed to have suddenly discovered something, and their singing was full of tenderness.
Maid A bent down and glanced at the prince obsessively:
-A lovely young man.
-How sweet and handsome.
Her voice is sweet.
Then maid B came over, her voice hoarse:
-I have never seen such a handsome man!
Accompanied by the solo melody of the viola part, maid C pushed away the two of them and stared closely at the figure on the ground. She covered her mouth in surprise:
-He is as beautiful as a painting
The three maids sang in unison:
-If I want to give my heart to love
-It must be this young man
Qin Jian looked at the stage seriously. Judging from his expression with his back to the audience, he should be satisfied with the completion of the dialogue scene between Tamino and the three maids.
At this time, he raised his hand and tapped Li Shasha's position slightly, and the rhythm of the entire string section became clearer.
Hearing such a sound, he nodded, like a bartender tasting the liquid he mixed.
Yes, this is his job, he needs to use his baton to cast magic for everything on the stage.
The three maids danced cheerfully around the prince on the ground.
-let us go
-Inform the Queen
They danced and sang.
- maybe he'll restore her
-The peace that was lost before
Maid A:
-Go and tell the Queen that I will wait here with him.
Maid B:
-No, no! Go ahead and let me guard him!
Maid C:
-No! I can't do this, I have to protect him alone.
You say something to me.
In the blink of an eye, as the band's music became more and more urgent, the trio of maids also became more and more intense.
-No! I'll wait here!
-No! I'll guard him!
-No! I will protect him alone!
After a long argument, the three maids reluctantly agreed that no one could stay alone with the prince.
Seeing that the people on the ground were about to wake up, the three maids reluctantly ran away in a hurry.
The curtain on the stage was pulled down again, and the figures of the three maids disappeared into the temple.
At the same moment, during the brilliant ending of the music, Qin Jian stopped the orchestra.
The stage gradually darkened, and applause broke out from the audience.
The applause was not loud, very light, and those applauding knew that the play was still going on.
This is a kind of etiquette for the audience, which is at least enough to wake up the prince who is still lying on the ground.
Act 1, Scene 2 - "I am a happy bird catcher"
The prince rolled over and got up from the ground amidst the applause, but he seemed to have lost his memory.
-This is where?
He looked around at the entrance of the rockery cave.
-Am I alive or dreaming?
-Or was it some kind of supreme divine power that saved me?
at this time.
A strange whistle seemed to come from the front.
-What did I hear?
He lowered his body and hid on the side of Dongkou, observing everything outside.
The conductor baton was raised, and playful and humorous music sounded.
Outside the cave, a thin young man covered in bird feathers appeared there carrying a huge bird cage. A flute hung around his neck, and a bird stood on the hat on his head.
The prince swore that he had never seen such a strange bird catcher.
Through observation, we found that as long as the strange bird catcher blew his strange-sounding flute, the birds would come to his doorstep.
Looking at a bird walking towards him, the bird catcher adjusted his hat and showed a proud smile.
Sing a chant that belongs to the bird catcher - "I am a happy bird catcher"
-I am a happy bird catcher
-humming a pleasant tune
-I am proud to be a bird catcher
-Because I am famous all over the world
He shook his head and opened his cage.
The extremely exaggerated expression made the audience burst into laughter.
-Luring birds is my specialty
-The sound of my flute will intoxicate the birds
-So I am a happy person
-Because all birds belong to me
One bird after another flew out of his cage.
-But I prefer to plunder girls
-There's a chance that dozens of birds will fall into my trap.
-I lock them up and make them my possessions
The musical theme is repeated.
-After becoming my possession
-Take it in exchange for some candy
-Give it to the person I love the most
-A bag of candy is enough to win her over
-So he kissed me tenderly
-We became husband and wife
It got longer and slower, and the bird catcher sang the last line softly, thinking he was gentle, and then pounced on a bird.
It fell firmly with a 'plop' sound, which could be heard clearly by the audience.
Because the music was stopped by the conductor at the moment he flew out.
"Nice job."
Qin Jian looked at his classmate who was playing the role of bird catcher and thought to himself.
At this moment, the bird catcher suddenly discovered a pool of blood in front of the rockery.
When he took a closer look, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. The corpse of a poisonous snake monster that had been disemboweled was still steaming.
Just when he turned around and was about to run away.
-Happy friend, tell me who you are?!
A humble and kind voice came from behind the rockery.
The bird catcher swallowed and slowly turned around in disbelief. When he saw the figure walking out of the cave clearly, his eyes changed again.
...
"Ding!"
Qin Jian suddenly looked away from the stage and looked around the orchestra, but did not find the source of the sound.
The next second.
"Fowler Papageno's information has been deciphered, and he has been rewarded: a strange fragment."
Just before he could react, the voice continued to ring in his ears.
