In this day and age, the means of transportation for long-distance travel were still riding horses, carriages, and oxcarts. Cars were too rare, and there were not many of them in the entire country.
Soon, the sky was about to turn dark. Qingqing leaned into Lin Yi's embrace and yawned. Even though she was with Lin Yi, the journey still seemed very boring.
"Big Brother Lin, how much longer do we have to go to Niu Town?”
"Soon, there should be a few more miles. If you're tired, you can sleep for a while.”Lin Yi said softly.
"I can't sleep. It's too shaky. I'll sleep when we get there.”Qingqing pouted. She had been on the road for a whole day, and the weather was so hot. She was sweating quite a bit. Qingqing really wanted to get there quickly and take a comfortable shower before sleeping.
"Well, why don't I sing you a little song to relieve your boredom? We'll be there in a while.”
"Good, good. I didn't expect Brother Lin to know how to sing!”Qingqing's eyes instantly lit up. There weren't many entertainment activities in this era. Basically, they just listened to opera, listened to songs, and watched acrobatics. However, it had been a long time since Qingqing had watched a show.
"I know a little, but I can't sing well.”Lin Yi smiled and kicked the stirrups. Little Black obediently increased its speed. Although it had been running for the entire day, Little Black was not tired. Its physical strength was still enough for it to run for a while.
After staying at home for so long, it wanted to exercise more.
"Yes, I'm thinking about what to sing. I haven't sung in a long time.”It had indeed been a long time since Lin Yi had sung. He had been in this world for eighteen years. Ever since he found out that this was Mr. Zombie's world, Lin Yi spent every day fighting and cultivating diligently, afraid that he would lose his life one day.
He had never been there before. How could he be in the mood to sing?
After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't think of what to sing. Little Black had already run far away.
"Big Brother Lin, look at the people in front!”Qingqing said softly as she pointed at a group of people ahead.
"It seems to be a troupe!" Lin Yi took a look. The sky had just turned dark. Although he was still far away, Lin Yi could see it very clearly.
Chu.
This group of people carried many things, boxes filled with costumes, and props used for singing. There were men and women, old and young. It was indeed a troupe.
Why did opera singers and crosstalk performers have box opening and box sealing performances? In fact, that box was the box they used to store costumes and props. They were all things to eat.
"I got it!" Lin Yi's eyes suddenly lit up as he thought of what to sing.
"What do you mean?" Qingqing asked, puzzled.
Lin Yi smiled and said," I've thought of a song. Do you want to hear it?”
"Yes, Brother Lin, hurry up and sing.”Qingqing urged impatiently. The journey was boring. Qingqing had chatted with Lin Yi during the day, so she didn't have anything to say now. She was extremely bored.
"Cough cough, listen up."
Laughing at who relies on beauty to show off, how can we match without heart?
The bells rang, and the lights in the curtains dimmed.
You and I, we're a perfect match
Initially, Qingqing was still suspicious of Lin Yi's singing. However, when she heard Lin Yi say this, her heart softened and she instantly became intoxicated by Lin Yi's singing.
She had never heard this tune before, and what made her struggle the most was the line," You and I, our lips are a match made in heaven."
Just like that, she leaned into Lin Yi's embrace. The fatigue from the day's journey had disappeared, and her body had become half as light. If not for Lin Yi hugging her tightly, she would probably have been able to fly.
Little Black seemed to be attracted by Lin Yi's singing as well. It slowly slowed down and paced around, gradually catching up with the troupe in front of it.
"Eh? Uncle Zhang, did you hear that? It sounds like someone is singing a song!”
Ah Gui perked up his ears in confusion. The more he listened, the closer he got. It sounded very good!
The man who was addressed as Uncle Zhang was a man in his fifties. He nodded and said," There is indeed someone singing a song. Judging from the sound, it's coming from behind.”
"Ah, it's really nice. Brother Gui, have you heard this song before?”A robust young man carrying a bunch of props squeezed over and asked curiously.
Ah Gui shook his head and asked Uncle Zhang," Uncle Zhang, you've traveled all over the world for so many years. Have you heard of this song?”
Uncle Zhang also shook his head." I've never heard of it.”
It was you who kissed away the brush and ink, staining my eyes with tears
Acting in separation and reunion, meeting, sorrow and joy, for whom?
They misunderstand, but I'm at your mercy
Ask if there is anything more perfect in the world
"Sigh! The sound is getting closer!" Ah Biao turned his head curiously and saw a pure black horse galloping over. There were two men sitting on the horse's back, hugging each other tightly. The man in front leaned into the arms of the man behind with an intoxicated expression.
This scene made the people walking in front of them a little dumbfounded.
Two men!
What a strong taste!
Orchid fingers twirled the world of mortals like water, three feet red platform, everything into the song blowing, singing farewell for a long time without sorrow, ten red places actually turned into ashes, who would remember who, the best years...
The pure opera tone dumbfounded everyone in the troupe.
They were all opera singers. They had basically heard of opera from all over the world, such as Peking opera, Cantonese opera, and Huangmei opera. There were basically all kinds of opera singers. There were also senior students in green clothes, martial arts students, and clowns. Which one of them had not been in this industry for several years? The longest had been decades. However, Lin Yi's voice was indescribably clear and seductive.
"Is this a play?"
"What kind of show is this? This voice is really good."
"Yeah, this voice is really not bad. It's just that she can't sing well. Learn well. She's definitely a character.”
The group immediately became lively. Ah Gui, who was walking in front, suddenly ran a few steps and caught up with the strolling Little Black. He wanted to hear Lin Yi finish singing, but he didn't expect Lin Yi to finish singing after a few lines.
"Big brother, was what you sang just now a play?”Ah Gui could not help but ask.
"Phew, it doesn't count. I just made it up. You guys are a troupe, right? Are you going to Niu Town to set up a stage to sing?”Lin Yi pulled the reins and increased Little Black's speed.
"Yeah, we're all going to Niu Town. Brother, are you going too?”Ah Gui originally wanted to continue calling him big brother, but seeing that Lin Yi was probably not as old as him, he changed his address to brother.
"That's right. It's already so late. We definitely have to go to Niu Town to stay.”Lin Yi said with a smile.
"What a coincidence. Maybe you can see our troupe sing tomorrow.”
"Brother Lin, if we're not in a hurry to go back, can we go watch a show tomorrow?”When Qingqing, who was leaning in Lin Yi's arms, heard Ah Gui's words, she woke up from Lin Yi's singing. She was also very interested in the opera that Ah Gui was talking about. She remembered that the last time she watched a show was when her family went to the big town to buy goods. That was also the only time she went to an opera with her family.
"Alright, if you want to listen to the play, let's go.”Qingqing wanted to watch the show, and Lin Yi naturally agreed. He also wanted to go and take a look and understand the quintessence of the country.
"Brother, I'm Ah Gui, a martial arts student in the troupe. What's your name?”Ah Gui asked enthusiastically.
"My name is Lin Yi. I'm half a Daoist."
