Chapter 35 Drama
The next morning, Qin Yan was woken up by He Zhongyi and went to the young lady's room with Bai Lang. They waited outside the boudoir for a long time and only heard the footsteps of the maids inside. It took a long time for the two ladies to dress up under the help of many people before Shiran came out.
After breakfast, Lin Muyao led them and a large group of guards to the half-moon slope west of Meiyuan. She climbed up a white stone and began to call names condescendingly. She nodded more than a dozen people in a row, and Qin Yan was also among them. Mu Chengxue sent a thin pamphlet to each person who was ordered, with three big words "Exorcism" written on the cover. The ink in the book is still new, and it seems that it was copied overnight.
Qin Yan opened it and read it. There is an old-fashioned story, that is, the routine of a beautiful girl commonly used in supernatural novels to be captured by monsters and the young prince to kill demons and get the beauty back. He wondered how Lin Muyao could be interested in such a story. In reality, the prince of her family can form an army. Does she think it's more interesting to be caught by a monster?
After a while, when people read the contents of the booklet, Lin Muyao said, "Guys, the story we practiced a few days ago is not suitable for Dad's 70th birthday because the tone is too sad, so I rearranged the script with Xueer. Thank you for your hard work in these two days. The inner trick is well rehearsed, and I will be rewarded a lot afterwards!"
Qin Yan wanted to laugh a little. It turns out that the group of people under Miss Lin are doing these things all day, which is really worthy of sympathy! I don't know what Lin Ge will think when he sees a sad and touching love story between a young man and a woman on his birthday gift.
He asked He Zhongyi beside him in a low voice: "Has Lin Gelao seen the young lady's play before?"
He Zhongyi looked at Lin Muyao on the slope and replied in a mosquito-like voice, "The master has seen it several times, and he is full of praise every time."
"Oh--" Qin Yan couldn't help smiling. It turns out that one is willing to beat the other. As long as Lin Ge Lao says he likes it, do others dare to say it well?
"Hey! What is the boy surnamed Qin muttering about?" Lin Muyao found his little move and stared fiercely, "You are the only novice among so many people, why don't you listen to me! If you drag everyone down alone, I will never forgive you!"
Qin Yan quickly silenced and put on the 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 is a young man dressed as a young man who kills demons and saves the beauty. He Zhongyi won the heavy responsibility of being the villain's leader because of his rugged and fierce appearance, and Bai Lang plays a small leader under him. As for Qin Yan, the role he received was a complete villain. He will play another young man who is jealous of Mr. Lin. This young man has all kinds of adultery between the hero and heroine, and is scared to abandon the beauty when the monster leader comes to attack. After the hero Mr. Lin killed the little leader, he attracted the monster leader because of jealousy, causing the hero almost to die, and even He also attacked the hero at the last moment... In short, he was a character who deserved thousands of knives. In the end, he died under Mr. Lin's sword, which was also a self-serving result.
After seeing the role he was about to play, Qin Yan really had nothing to say. Miss Lin, no, Mr. Lin, you didn't specially create a character for me and then added it overnight, did you? Haha, I have been running through the whole play. The scene is so full that I really have to thank Mr. Lin for his love!
No matter how slandered Qin Yan, the play began to be rehearsed in the mountains and seas of flowers.
The first act is progressing smoothly. Mr. Lin and Miss Mu met in the colorful season of Luo Ying and admired each other at first sight. If it hadn't been for the untimely insertion of the third party, Mr. Qin, it would have been a romantic and beautiful scene. It can be seen that under the influence of Miss Lin for many years, the acting skills of the people in Meiyuan have reached a certain level, and even the two prince's attendants can fully reflect the arrogant feelings of dog power and cold eyebrows. As a person who has been mixed into the position of chief disciple in the family, Qin Yan's acting skills are not too bad. Everyone gave full play to their strength, and the first act passed directly without much difficulty.
But when it came to the second act, the problem came. In this scene, Mr. Qin proposed a duel invitation to Mr. Lin out of jealousy. Mr. Lin happily responded to the battle. The two fought with swords. One was flexible and easy, and the other was tricky, which can be said to be a chess opponent - but the difference was worse than the word "tacky" four words. Qin Yan has been practicing swordsmanship since he was a child and pursues refined and practical swordsmanship. After so many years of training, swordsmanship has been even smaller. Every move is pure and simple, streamlined to the extreme. There is no superfluous trick, and it is absolutely not compatible with "tly tricky"——
"Stop!" Lin Muyao opened the sword he cut in front of his head, jumped out of the battle circle, and shouted loudly, "What's the matter with you? Can you only sweep these two moves? The farmers in the countryside dance better than you! I have told you a long time that you should be tricky, vicious and weird. Didn't you brag that 'all your skills are on the sword'? Now that you have a sword in your hand, you should use your skills!"
Qin Yan replied, "I have tried my best." He did his best. In thousands of days and nights of practice, the posture, movements and force of each sword have become the instinct engraved in the body, accompanied by the rhythm of each breath. Lin Muyao's body will automatically react to every sword attack and fight back in the most concise way. If it is a swordsman who fights with him, you will find the horror contained in his sword. When he blocked the sword stabbed by Lin Muyao, it was not impossible for him to take a sword flower, twist an enchanting step, and go around to the left side of the other party to cut her ears, but the countless nights that waved dark and cold electricity did not allow him to betray his instinct, and did not allow him to please an ignorant person with such a fancy, gorgeous but laborious swordsmanship. Girl...
But Lin Muyao won't understand. She was very disappointed with the performance of Mr. Qin, who praised Butterfly Fairy as "unparalleled sword skills". Despite her psychological preparation, she couldn't help laughing: "What a master Qin with superb swordsmanship. I really can't imagine how Sister Butterfly knows you. Have you lived on a dog for so many years in the desert?"
Qin Yan suddenly changed color. Little girl, don't go too much. My young master's sword is for killing people, not for you to play!
Mu Chengxue quickly walked between the two and persuaded, "Okay, Yaoer, don't say a few words. Mr. Qin may not be good at this fancy playing style, so let Brother Bai design a set of/actions for you two.
Lin Muyao snorted: "The mud can't hold the wall! Lao San, come here, let's fight each other. Qin, please open your eyes and see clearly!"
Bai Lang came over and made a salutation to Lin Muyao without saying much. He pulled out his sword and attacked Lin Muyao. Lin Muyao shouted, "It's just the right time!" Raise your sword to greet you. When the two fought together, one figure swaying, advancing and retreating like the wind, and the other was as fast as charming and wonderful. They only saw the array of sword light, which was inexsoluble and dazzling. The scene was much more wonderful than that of Qin Yan just now.
Qin Yan curled his lips. In his eyes, this level of fighting was like a child's play, but the onlookers were interested in it. Even Miss Mu Chengxue stared at the two figures in the field for a moment, as if she had forgotten to breathe.
Alas, ignorant fool, is this fancy trick really so wonderful? Maybe the concept of "life and death can be seen in an instant" pursued by my young master is really not qualified to go to the elegant hall...
Just as Lin Muyao and Bai Lang were fighting at a critical juncture, they suddenly heard a cry with a gasp under the hillside: "Miss...Miss... Hao Chenyan is coming!"
Lin Muyao and Bai Lang withdrew their swords almost at the same time, took a step back and ended the struggle. Lin Muyao turned around and saw a little servant running over breathlessly and stammering, "Hao Chen has arrived in the city... I'm signing up... I'm about to call!"
Lin Muyao raised her eyebrows. Before she opened her mouth, she saw Mu Chengxue walk to the little man and asked, "Which ring did he go to?"
"The ring of the North City."
Mu Chengxue turned around and said, "It's not too late yet. Yaoer, let's go quickly!"
Lin Muyao pouted and said unwillingly, "There is no need to go. Now it's just a preliminary selection. I can't see the strength at all. You can wait until my father's birthday banquet!"
Mu Chengxue clenched his little fist in a hurry: "No, I have to see it now. If you don't go, I'll leave alone!" With that, he walked down the slope.
Lin Muyao quickly followed and smiled, "There's nothing I can do about you!" There are so many people on the street, and you are so uneasy. If you really go alone, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back!"
