Chapter 666, docked ship
Morning, Opera House.
As the melodious music played, the huge curtain of the stage slowly opened.
The scene behind the curtain was a noisy tavern, with drinkers chatting and drinking. A maid in a blue dress kept moving between the wine tables, delivering the drinks ordered by the guests.
The maid''s voice was clear and ethereal, instantly attracting everyone''s attention in the cluttered scene.
Squeak~!
The sound of a door opening sounded.
A figure wearing a black cloak appeared, glanced around, walked to the corner of the scene, and sat down slowly.
The maid walked over quickly.
"Sir, what do you want to order?"
The man casually took out two silver coins and threw them on the maid''s tray gracefully. "I want a cocktail and another one for you. It depends on what you like to drink."
"Thank you, guest." The maid smiled and quickly went down to prepare.
…
Audience stand.
"They started in the tavern," Minnie said softly.
Robbe continued: "The beginning of the original story was an introduction to the identity, which was omitted."
"Well, that''s good." Minnie nodded.
Annette said: "The lady who plays the host feels that every line and action she takes is very serious."
"But the performance is pretty good, but I feel a little shorter than the master." Minnie looked sideways.
Wu Heng turned his head and glanced at the other party, "Keep your voice down, it''s not good for others to hear you."
"oh oh!"
…
Association members, viewing positions.
Shi Yali watched the performance, "Is the fifth princess playing Wu Heng?"
"Yes, I asked someone to investigate. I have been rehearsing stage plays during this period, which is quite honest." Sheela Gui said.
"Looking at how young she is, she''s quite pitiful."
Sheila Gui turned to look at her, "What Treasure Island can do is to protect her safety on the island, and will not involve Treasure Island in political battles just because she is pitiful or not."
"I know." Shi Yali looked back at the stage, "I have to say, she acted pretty well. Why do you think she acted so much like Wu Heng?"
"Stop talking, it''s critical time."
…
The performance on the stage still continues.
As the plot progressed, everyone stopped talking and watched the subsequent performance seriously.
As the raging fire raged, the character playing Penny stood quietly in front, dressed in simple clothes, with firm eyes and no trace of fear.
Looking at the cult followers in black robes.
He showed a sarcastic smile and said loudly: "Wu Heng will come back to avenge me and avenge the dead villagers."
After saying that, without waiting for the cult members to approach, he walked directly into the fire and was swallowed up by the fire.
The scenes are all represented by props.
But seeing this, there were still a few sighs coming from the stands.
Even if I have seen and heard this story, it still makes me feel sad to see it here.
Then, the role of Wu Heng appeared. At this time, he was wearing more gorgeous mage robes, and the attendants behind him were also tall and mighty.
The image is obviously different from the one in the tavern.
Wu Heng found Beni''s body and resurrected it.
Later, the pace of the story begins to accelerate.
Wu Heng began to seek revenge on the cult and killed all the villains in the story.
…
The story is a short one and can be completed in thirty minutes.
The actors bowed and thanked them, and the curtain fell.
The show is over.
The maid who first approached Wu Heng to discuss the adaptation of the story quickly walked over from the stage.
He saluted and said, "My lord, the island owner, ladies and gentlemen."
Wu Heng smiled and nodded, "The performance is very good. You are very talented in this area."
Although they are not as good as those real bards, it is pretty good for a group of tavern maids to perform as they are now.
The woman looked a little excited, "Thank you, sir." "Minnie." Wu Heng said to the side.
Minnie took out a few bard scrolls and handed them to the other party, "The island owner has prepared them for you. I hope you will continue to work hard."
The maid subconsciously took it and said, "Thank you, sir. Thank you, miss."
Wu Heng led the people away, and behind him came the cheers and sobs of the women.
…
Afternoon, Jinfan Tavern.
The bard Saban finished reading the latest issue of the Great Detective Story, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The adaptation of the Great Detective stage play made them even more famous on the island.
Moreover, we have also reached a cooperation with the Opera House, and the Great Detective stage play will be performed there every three days.
It can be regarded as giving them a lot of income.
But on weekdays, I still read newspapers and chat with people in the pub.
Not only because the tavern gave him this job when he was in trouble, but also because he wanted to keep himself popular, and also because he wanted to be familiar with the latest detective stories.
Prepare for subsequent adaptations.
"Everyone, tomorrow the association will hold a class for magic weapon masters. If you are interested, don''t forget to sign up. This is an opportunity given to you by the island owner."
Everyone in the audience nodded.
"I heard it is a condition for joining Hongwen Club."
"I''ve also heard about this, and I want the island owner to hand over the potion formula."
"It''s too much to deceive others. It''s a bit different from being a robber."
"The island owner is a good man..."
"It''s the writer who always breaks chapters. Don''t let me know who he is."
"Indeed, it would be best to keep him hidden."
At this time, someone walked into the tavern and whispered something next to Saban.
Saban nodded and waited for the other party to leave.
He said directly: "I have the latest news. Let me tell you."
Everyone fell silent and looked forward at the same time.
Saban continued, "The stage play adapted by the maids of "Benny the Blushing Maid" has been approved by the island owner at the opera house. It will be performed at the opera house in a few days. I hope you will come and support it."
"They really succeeded."
"I was asked to play a cult role before, and I...hey! I would have agreed if I had known."
"I want to act too."
…
Return to the island owner''s mansion.
Wu Heng returned to the study and turned on the air conditioner.
He glanced at Penny who was standing aside, "How''s your story? Are you satisfied?"
The ghosts followed the performance of the stage play, but they were in a state of invisibility and did not appear.
Moreover, today''s story is adapted from Beni''s incident.
The real owner is floating aside.
Hearing Wu Heng''s words, Beni smiled and said: "It''s all based on Mrs. Glenda''s story, and I''m not that great. I was scared at the time."
"Fear is a normal reaction. You are already very brave." Wu Heng said.
Glenda also said, "Yes, he is much braver than those high-level professionals."
"Yes, I also feel that Sister Beini is so brave and like a hero." Xiaoxiao also said.
"Thank you everyone." Penny thanked her and flew to Wu Heng again, "Thank you Wu Heng for taking me out of Blackstone Town."
"Why are you so polite?"
Dong dong dong~!
There was a knock on the door, and Minnie''s voice came in, "Master, Mrs. McIntosh called and said she has something to see you."
Wu Heng opened the door and went downstairs, picked up the phone and put it to his ear.
"Hello."
"Island owner, I am ''McIntosh'' and I have special information to report to you." A deep female voice came from the opposite side.
"What''s wrong?" Wu Heng asked.
The other person said directly: "We have received information that there is a cargo ship at the port. It will send a lot of food up every day. It can probably feed nearly a hundred people. We suspect there is a problem."
