Chapter 237 King of Drama
Su Ye held a magic book in his hand and kept writing and drawing on it.
Because I write with my mind, the speed is very fast.
"Do I use the classical drama or the realistic one?"
"Are you writing about tragedy or a serious drama?"
"Do you write a one-scene drama or a multi-scene drama?"
"Are you writing the mainstream poetry dramas nowadays or writing operas or dramas?"
“Is it closed or open?”
Su Ye kept making choices and judgments, and finally decided to either not write, or write a big one if you want to.
Greece is the origin of Western drama, and the drama was originally a ritual to commemorate Dionysus, developed from the Ode to Dionysus. At the beginning, it was just a person who performed with a mask. The father of tragedy, Aeschylus, added one person, and then Sophocles added another person.
Now Greek drama is relatively single, but many classic plays have appeared.
The dramas are still only entertainment activities for nobles and wealthy civilians, and are not popular.
Even so, drama is the most popular entertainment event in Greece and even Rome, no doubt.
"Since I want to write, then write a work that is completely impossible to be born in this era!"
Su Ye was immersed in the world of drama and kept writing the outline of "Zachary".
Unconsciously, Su Ye even mobilized his magic power to maintain high-speed thinking to avoid excessive brain fatigue.
"Master Su Ye, you're at Plato Academy." Hill's voice came from outside.
"Um."
Su Ye didn't answer and wrote quickly.
After a while, Su Ye felt too tired and stopped.
The outline has been basically completed, some details of each curtain have been determined, and some wonderful sentences have even been written, and the next step is to write specific writing.
Put away the magic book and walk off the carriage.
The Avenue of Socrates was quiet, and the Plato Academy looked empty.
The Sea Demon Fountain behind the gate is as usual.
Seeing that the others had not arrived yet, Su Ye walked into the academy and carefully observed the statues on both sides.
These statues are the pinnacle of art throughout Greece and even the whole world. Su Ye observed carefully, savored and marveled.
I don’t know how long it took, Su Ye felt someone approaching. When he looked up, he saw Rick walking from the west of the school.
"You're early." Rick smiled.
Su Ye glanced at Rick. The dark circles on his face were a little lighter, his robes were clean, and his hair returned to his previous upright appearance, looking very energetic.
"But, your family lives in the east, how did you pass by the west?" Su Ye immediately remembered that Rick had been to the west before.
Rick's eyes darkened, and then he forced a smile and said, "It's nothing, I've gone to see a friend."
"That's it." Su Ye nodded, without asking, everyone has their own secrets.
"Aren't they here yet?" Rick smiled and crossed the topic.
Su Ye glanced at the two magic cars and shook his head and said, "I guess I'm going home too late yesterday and we were sleeping in. What happened last night... Thank you very much! I would like to extend my most sincere greetings to you."
Su Ye laughed and patted Rick's upper arm.
"We are all deskmates, so we should. We have no chance. It's better to have meat rotten in your broken pot than to let someone snatch it away." Rick said with a smile on his face.
"Just classmate, don't think so far. By the way, your sister is used to it these days, right?" Su Ye asked.
"It's okay. But there's something bad." Reek looked at Su Ye vigilantly.
"What's wrong?"
"She suddenly started asking you something, and asked you many times in a row! It's not good!" Rick seemed to have a lookout hand who discovered danger.
"Maybe I am too famous, handsome and kind! In order to satisfy her curiosity, I can tell my story in person."
"Haha! I'll tell Palos this in a while!"
"It doesn't matter," Su Ye shrugged, "I'll go with Palos."
"You're too thick-skinned." Rick said helplessly.
"This is called honesty and honesty." Su Ye said.
Reke glanced at Su Ye, turned his head and looked out the sides of the gate. He found that there was still no one, so he leaned back and leaned against the marble door frame of Plato Academy.
"I didn't sleep well last night." Rick looked at the blue sky high, squinted slightly under the sun.
His short, slump shadow fell to the ground, with almost no arc visible.
"I'm OK." Su Ye stood aside, squinted his eyes and raised his head, and received the sun's bath.
"Your words yesterday touched me a lot, even more than those of my favorite books. I never imagined that I would experience such a strange thing." Rick sighed.
"If you touch, you will gain." Su Ye said with a smile.
"I have strengthened my confidence and must fight against the nobles and make the civilians live more dignified!" A look of perseverance appeared on Rick's face.
Su Ye was stunned for a moment, but unexpectedly, Rek was still obsessed with the contradiction between the nobles and the civilians themselves, and did not pay attention to more important definitions. Palos last night was on the contrary, not bound by the definitions of the nobles and civilians, but broke through the old definition and pursued a higher mission.
After thinking about it, Su Ye said: "Some people obviously want to climb the mountains in the distance, but they keep fighting with the stones under their feet."
"Well said! I will reduce my participation in private competitions in the future and spend more time studying." Rick's eyes became more firm.
Su Ye nodded and said nothing.
"By the way, writing drama is a very difficult thing. You also know my drama elective course scores. After you finish writing the outline, you can let me be a staff officer. Actually, I also want to write a drama, but unfortunately I have given up because I don't have time. Even Mr. Aeschylus said it's a pity." Reck said.
"Who?" Su Ye asked in surprise.
"Aschylus." Reck said.
"The father of tragedy?"
"Yes, it's him."
"You actually know him?" Su Ye said.
"It's also my luck. I visited the Potion President's house and happened to meet Aeschylus to visit him. Then I chatted for a few words, saying that I'm very talented." Rick smiled and a little proud in his tone.
"I really didn't see it. I thought the best drama in our class is... it is Teacher Nideen." Su Ye said.
"He has a good drama? I really haven't heard of it."
Su Ye handed over his magic book, allowing Rick to read the page of "Zachary" and said, "I have already made the outline and have written some good sentences. Please help me. However, I am not going to write old dramas, I am going to create new types of dramas."
"I want to run if I haven't learned to leave? Who gives you the courage, Mount Olympus? Let's take a look." Rick took the magic book and looked seriously.
At first he frowned, but slowly, his brows stretched out and his expression was solemn.
Seeing the end, he looked excited, sometimes clenched his fists and sometimes widened his eyes, almost unable to control his emotions.
Finally, he held the magic book and looked up at Su Ye, with a crystal flash in his eyes.
"I have no right to judge your structure and model, but your story deeply touched me. I dare say that if you can really finish "Zachary", you will definitely become one of the greatest playwrights in Greece!" said Rek.
"You look down on me too highly." Su Ye said modestly.
But Rick lowered his head and whispered and repeated some of the sentences written by Su Ye.
“No matter how long the night is, the day will always come.”
"Even if you live in a gutter, you have the right to look up at the stars."
"Survival or death..."
"Life is like summer flowers, die is like autumn leaves..."
"Su Ye, I really didn't expect that you could write such soul-stirring sentences! I got the first place in the drama class, but your drama is top-notch in all Greek! Please forgive me for my previous pride and arrogance. In front of you, I am just a child who doesn't understand drama. Your drama has surpassed drama and reached the level of philosophy! There are some sentences in it that I can't understand yet, but it has allowed my soul to be baptized."
Su Ye coughed lightly, a little embarrassed. These sentences are so famous that they are well known to everyone in later generations. He just wrote them casually and was not sure whether they were used.
"You don't need to be modest. I can guarantee that as long as your drama can be performed, you will definitely be as famous as Master Aeschylus! You are the king of drama in the future!"
Rick looked at Su Ye with sincerity in his eyes.
"Don't worry, I will work hard to write "Zachary" well," Su Ye said.
As if he suddenly lost his strength, Reck leaned lazily against the marble door and whispered: "Life is like summer flowers, death is like autumn leaves. This simply interprets Zachary's life. Although he is just an ordinary black iron warrior, he is as brilliant as summer flowers at the end of his life. There are other sentences, not about Zachary, but about each of us and every civilian. It is a great honor to see such wonderful sentences."
Su Ye didn't expect that this drama would have such a great impact on Rick, and he didn't know how to do it for a while.
"Su Ye, I told you that the half year I was recuperating was the second painful period in my life. Do you still remember it?" Rick looked quietly at the distant sky.
"I remember, I felt strange at that time, but I didn't ask in detail." Su Ye said.
"When I saw your "Zachary", looking at those beautiful sentences, I remembered the most painful things. If I had known these sentences earlier, I might not have been so painful. I have been knowing the picture and forgetting that thing, but I can't forget it." Rick said.
Su Ye listened quietly.
"I was born in a very happy family. Although my parents were not nobles, they were also fur merchants with a good income. My brother and sister had never suffered hardships since childhood. Until one day, everything changed. I was too young and didn't know why, but recently as I continued to investigate, I finally learned the reason."
"At that time, my parents were doing business with a noble family. They brought a batch of very good fur goods from Nordic Europe and sold them to the noble family. But unexpectedly, the butler of the noble family became greedy and exchanged the good goods from our family with low prices, and then handed the goods to the noble family, saying that our family was untrustworthy. The other party was a nobleman and thought he was humiliated, so he sent someone to smash my shop, snatch a large amount of goods and money, and forbid my parents from doing business in Athens."
"My parents came to the War God Mountain, but War God Mountain favored the nobles and ignored them. As a last resort, their parents had to find the nobles, prayed for the nobles repeatedly, and repeatedly said that our fur had been replaced. However, the nobles did not listen to my parents' explanation at all. Later, every time my parents went to the scene, the nobles sent someone to kill my parents. Until one time, the private soldiers went crazy and beat my mother to death."
