Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 562: Ended successfully

Seeing that the audience here gradually recollected, the third program called Xiaosanlian was clearly three jokes, so they all began to look forward to the third joke. Strictly speaking, it is inevitable that jokes will be on the stage to subvert the tradition, but everyone just feels happy.

When the curtain was lowered and then opened on the stage, there was an extra counter and a door frame on the stage, behind the counter stood a boy disguised as a bear. Saul raised his eyebrows amusedly, feeling that this scene was a bit familiar, and as expected, a duck appeared soon.

Seeing this Saul laughed, it was not because of the joke itself, but because he remembered that he woke up from noon and was met by Cletty bringing the Mushroom Party to crusade the Great Devil. The Shiitake Mushroom Party questioned its own duck remarks and suspected that it was saying bad things about women.

At that time, I had an idea, and I told a story about ducks buying grapes, which made the mushrooms laugh, and eliminated a terrorist action against the big devil. It's a pity that the big devil was careless, and a few days later he was still locked in a potion bottle by the mushrooms.

At that time, the dark goblin Igrit was still there, and the mainland environment was not as difficult as it is now. Speaking of which, Saul still missed her. There are always small flashes in life, subtle and fragmentary, but no matter when you look at it, you can get full of warmth.

As the past flashed through his mind, Saul sighed softly, alarming Beth, who was sitting next to him watching the performance with a smile on his face, so Beth shiitake handed a torn berry to his mouth. Saul held the berry in his mouth and turned his head to look at her maliciously.

Beth noticed that she wanted to escape, and was dragged into her arms by the big devil. Of course, a berry was only sweet for two people to eat.

The story of ducks buying grapes on the stage is still going on. The reason why this story appeared on the stage must be the material provided by one of my own mushrooms. Their shiitake mushrooms are really smart, and they can retell the stories they mentioned easily.

At this moment, the duck on the stage just stepped over the fake door frame, meaning that it entered the store. There was a small sign on the counter where the bear was standing, saying ‘Bear Grocery Store’. Well, the name is straightforward, and everyone in the audience can see it at a glance.

The actor of the duck is a petite girl, dressed in a furry attire that imitates a duck, her hands are turned into two wing-like cloth covers, she looks cute when she walks and swings. The actor of the bear is a slightly taller boy, who also wears a bear costume.

These two young girls certainly couldn't show the difference in height and weight between the big bear and the little duck in reality. But the audience in the audience watched it very happily. The literate read the words to figure out the plot, and the illiterate could guess from the props and costumes.

"Gah! Are there grapes here?" The duck said, and it seemed that the girl squeaked as if she was worried that she was not acting like it was still emphasized.

"No." The big bear has a low voice, obviously belonging to the type of bear who doesn't say much.

The plot is simple and straightforward. The duck came to the bear’s shop to buy grapes but did not buy it, and then left disappointed.

What's more interesting is that Salia and the others are obviously very careful, and they actually use the rising and falling of the moon to represent the passage of a day. The sun is a hanging golden cushion-shaped thing, and the moon is a golden crescent bud. When the moon sets and the sun rises again, the ducks will come again.

After three consecutive days of inquiries about grapes, Big Bear finally got angry and threatened the duck to come back and use nails to nail the soles of her feet.

The audience in the audience was aroused, smiling and whispering, all wondering whether the ducks dare to come and whether they have bought grapes.

Then on the fourth day, the duck came steadfastly, and the dog glared at her angrily. The duck first asked if there were any nails for sale, but the bear was stunned and subconsciously answered no. Then the duck was clever and asked again if there were any grapes for sale.

The curtain was hung in time, and the scene was frozen at the end when the bear and the duck looked affectionately across the counter, leaving a lot of room for the audience to imagine. In fact, every time the duck swayed out of the field, it caused laughter, and in the end it broke out directly to the apex.

"Haha quack" the whole theater seemed to suddenly become a forest, and the duck laughs at night, owl laughs at wild boar laughs, and all kinds of laughter are endless.

It's obviously a naive or even ridiculous story, like an absurd comedy, but for some reason people just want to laugh.

"Haha~ Oh, my God! That duck is obviously cute, but I don't know why I want to kill her."

"Ha, poor Big Bear, I don't know if his grocery store has been closed since then."

Many people in the audience were holding their stomachs, accusing the ducks of the crimes, and at the same time pitying the inhuman torture suffered by the bears.

When the curtain came back up, the sad sound of bagpipes suddenly sounded, which suddenly dragged the noisy audience into new expectations.

The fourth show begins, which is exactly the ghoul story that Sol once told Salia and the others. The atmosphere of the stage suddenly became calm and silent, and there seemed to be a faint sorrow permeated from the beginning, which was caused by the continuous and faint sound of music.

In the faintly sad music, an ugly creeping ghoul appeared on the scene and rescued the female mage who was left in a coma due to her injury.

After the mage woke up, the ghoul left the dead animal and spring water at the entrance of the cave. The next day he found that the spring water had disappeared, but the carrion was still there. So the ghoul replaced the rotten flesh with non-toxic berries, and the next day he found that the water and berries were gone.

When the ghouls kept crawling in circles because of this little discovery, and tumbled and somersaulted on the ground, every audience could feel the joy from the heart. When the ghoul hides in the grass and bears the hostility of humans, every audience is tugging.

Finally, the ghoul lay in the grass and looked at the distant team for a long time. The frozen posture with the neck stretched out, there was no language or even movement, but it seemed that all the expectations and sorrows were in the bleak back, which moved the viewer.

The whole story actually has only one line from beginning to end, and it doesn't matter to the whole plot. It was said by the female mage while holding down the swordsman's arm in order to prevent the swordsman captain from killing the ghoul after the new powerful team defeated the overlord in the swamp.

This means that it is not the dialogue that supports the entire program, but like a silent pantomime, which is expressed entirely by the actor's own expressions and actions. Maybe the ghoul's expression is not very clear to everyone in the audience, but his movements are very delicate.

Even Saul was a little shocked to watch the whole show. It was obviously just an oral story that did not really exist, but it was perfectly restored by the actors on stage. They cooperate in an orderly manner, whether it is expressions or actions, or the degree of intentions of the actors.

There may also be some flaws, such as the roughness and lack of props. The swamp host played by the three teenagers is just shaking with props similar to dirty rags. The grass is really barren grass, obviously everyone spared no effort to prepare in advance.

In addition, because there is no dialogue, no one in the audience may recognize that it is a ghoul, but subconsciously think it is a monster.

It is just with this simple condition that the actors rely on their own understanding and efforts to express the whole story very well.

This is exactly what shocked Saul as a storyteller. He knew that Salia and their rehearsal must have done a lot of hard work, but he did not expect to be able to do so. Sole realized that maybe art is really true. The charm is this.

When the show ended, there was endless applause in the theater, for this slightly heavy story, and for the outstanding performance of the actors on the stage. Even when Sol was applauding, he saw that the two daughters of Lord Beagle were crying.

Sure enough, the tragedy is the most touching thing, and Sol knows very well in his heart that the real difficulty of this story is not to make others cry, but to let others understand first. There is no dialogue or any explanation, only those who really understand it will shed tears.

And this story itself has its own success, it is not a clear story. It looks like both love and friendship, or as Shuggs said when he was at the bottom of the well, the ghoul just made a successful investment.

It is this seemingly broad wide-area ending that has aroused people's various conjectures, and has also satisfied people's spiritual level of poverty and poverty to the greatest extent. This is also the original intention of Sol to establish the theater, so that people who have suffered from suffering have a spiritual habitat.

Saul believes that the brilliance of these arts is far more meaningful and closer to life than those false beliefs in gods.

In the warm applause of the audience, the actors on the stage also exited one after another, and then came to the last performance.

The last show is still singing, but unlike the solo solo dance at the beginning, this time it is a chorus of all members.

It is roughly divided into two parts, one is the main song, the other is the chorus and contains humming. The two voices sometimes play their own voices and sometimes merge into one. It sounds a bit like the choir of a monastery, except that the content of the song is different from the hymn.

This is a ode to a goddess full of hope and bright yearning. Sol also taught Irene one song back then, but that song is a ode to the goddess of the battlefield, in order to inspire the fighting spirit of the soldiers on the battlefield. Now this song is more like a hope for a bumper harvest, hope for the future.

The whole performance is obviously well matched in terms of the structure of the show. The two song and dance shows are used at the beginning and the end to echo, neither completely subverting the traditional artistic expression, but also adding something of the new Freedom City itself. Sol really feels very nice.

When the end of the chorus fell, the roof of the whole theater was still a little roaring, and the audience gave a warm applause.

Salia walked to the stage generously and gave a speech, thanking all the audience for watching, and at the same time announcing the end of the performance.

People who were still unconscious began to exit in an orderly manner, and those who maintained order were in charge of evacuation, so as to prevent crowds from causing a stampede. It is not difficult to hear the satisfactory evaluation from the people's comments and the expectation for the next performance. The performance is undoubtedly a success.

Not only the crowd watching the performance, even in the private room where Sol was, all the proprietors with vision and appreciation level all expressed that the performance was very interesting and creative. It's not a hypocritical greet, but they really feel so.
