Chapter Thirteen: The Silk Play

Zhao Qian sat down with interest. She turned her head and said to Zhu Lin: "Let's listen, it's really good. Moreover, she has made innovations in traditional Kunqu opera, focusing on shape and slight sound, which is wonderful."

Seeing that Zhao Qian was so sensible about playing this Kunqu opera, he took Qing'er's hand and sat down, and the small venue was filled with three people.

Not long after, a light lit up behind the curtain on the stage, with soft light, and it seemed that someone had lit a candlelight in the background.

At this time, a woman covered in a mask walked onto the stage with a light pace. Her graceful figure turned, and behind the curtain, another shadow lit up.

Zhu Lin narrowed his eyes. The masked woman had a few silver threads wrapped around her fingers. The silver thread was crystal clear and could not be seen by ordinary people at all. The other end of the silver thread was connected behind the scenes.

The masked woman walked towards the black shadow, and the shadow also leaned towards the woman, and they danced across the curtain.

With each other in the face, the cooperation was extremely tacit, and the two danced gracefully on the stage, and this black shadow gave the viewers endless imagination.

The plot of the opera is very simple. It is probably the woman who falls in love with the black shadow, but the black shadow is a ghost. Humans and ghosts have different paths. Even if the two fall in love, they can only end up in separation.

Later, the shadow turned into a doll, hid its soul in the doll, and accompanied the woman all her life. At the end of the opera, the masked woman sat on the ground weakly, holding the doll in her hand and cried silently.

Zhao Qian wiped her tears and said, "This is the charm of opera. Although it is light, I can feel something different every time I come."

Silk-touching drama!

Zhu Lin didn't dare to confirm at first, but in the end he confirmed his thoughts.

Silk-tight play is a taboo play in Kunqu opera. The performer incorporates his essence and blood into the doll. The doll absorbs the performer's blood and obtains his soul. From then on, the two have the same roots and no distinction between them.

People in the world are afraid of evil. This kind of opera that can make people have souls is naturally unwilling to the world. Therefore, no one dares to learn silk plays for a long time. Zhu Lin did not expect that he could see silk plays in this place.

The masked woman looked at the doll in her hand with a soft look.

The doll is wearing a gorgeous outfit, beautiful makeup, and even looks real. It seems that this masked woman has put a lot of effort into the doll.

The masked woman stood up and bowed to the three people below who were willing to watch her performance. She was very satisfied if someone could watch her opera.

In this city of Wa City, others heard that she was practicing silk-slide plays, so they didn't dare to come and watch them, avoiding her like a ghost.

The masked woman saluted and turned around and prepared to leave.

"Should you wait, girl."

The masked woman was stunned. She turned around and didn't know what the man who called her in the audience wanted to do.

Zhu Lin chuckled and said, "The girl's opera is indeed attractive, but there are only operas but no music, which is a pity."

The masked woman blinked and responded: "What the young master said is, but I don't have everyone's help. I really can't write a good song. I'm not good at using it, and I'm afraid of treating the doll in my hands."

"I have a song here." Zhu Lin smiled and said, "I wonder if the girl is willing to listen to it?"

Zhu Lin still remembers that when he was a child, his mother Liu Xin once took him to another parallel world with astrological jade for a year. According to Liu Xin, it was more than 400 years after the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Lin lived in a completely modern world for a year. He heard a song in that era, which was very suitable for the masked girl today.

Seeing that Zhu Lin didn't seem to be joking, the masked woman said half-believingly: "Then please sing it out first and let Qingying listen."

It turns out that her name is Qingying.

Zhao Qian and Qing'er also looked at Zhu Lin curiously. When will he still know Kunqu Opera?

"Who laughs at whom you rely on your beauty and how to match if you lose your heart"

"The ringtone sounds are crisp, and the lights are faintly between the curtains"

"You and I are the most natural couple"

.....

"You are ragged and I paint, walking side by side across mountains and water"

"You are haggard and I will be bright for you"

.....

"It was you who kissed the pen and ink and dyed the tears at the corners of my eyes."

"Who is the sadness and joy of the separation and reunion"

.....

"I will not be right when you are wrong, I am ignorant."

"How can the heart fire be willing to keep the soup from boiling"
