Chapter 458: The Art of Pulling
The originally lively and noisy square had become harmonious and quiet at this time. Everyone focused their attention on the huge Magic Shadow screen, their moods rising and falling with the development of the plot.
When the plot was happy, they would laugh, and when the plot was sad, many sentimental people would even cry because of it.
At this moment, it was as if some powerful and invisible force had firmly controlled everyone's soul, letting their joys and sorrows flow according to their own will.
For a long time, after the opera performance on the screen finally ended, the square remained silent for a long time, until someone finally couldn't help but curse.
"Damn, this hateful church custom. If it weren't for these, Luo Miou and Zhu Liye could have been happily together."
"Exactly, exactly. Compared to beautiful love, what is faith?"
"Luo Miou and Zhu Liye are brave. Their love conquered religious oppression."
Topics like this began to spread among the crowd.
Of course, there were quite a few people in the crowd who were actually just thinking about it in their hearts. They all knew the power of the Shining Sect. Insulting the church and questioning faith would bring disaster upon themselves.
But when someone took the lead, and there were many responders, those rational people who still had scruples also gave up their reason and joined this chorus of condemnation.
After all, the law doesn't punish the masses. Since everyone says so, then there is no problem. Even if the church people really came, they couldn't really do anything to so many people.
In short, take the opportunity to curse twice to relieve your mood first.
Of course, some people were just depressed because of the opera plot and wanted to vent, while others cursed more and more happily. After all, this kind of religious oppression didn't just exist in the opera plot; it still existed in reality. Having a rare opportunity to vent, they naturally wouldn't let it go.
And on the edge of the square, on the flower carriage, Sophie Sophie Liya also withdrew her gaze. She had now found the reason for the loss of the church's faith.
It's just...
"It is indeed an excellent work. Whether it's the script or the performance, it's already impeccable. Eldest Miss, this wave is indeed your victory."
The pure white Witch came back to her senses from that poignant love story and didn't skimp on offering praise.
Although the spread of this work was very unfavorable to her, she had to admit that this was indeed an excellent artistic work. Whether it was the performance or the script, it was very mature and sophisticated, perfectly grasping the hearts of the audience.
"Is this the handiwork of that little junior sister of yours? It is worthy of being born in an artistic family; such a work is indeed worthy of her family's reputation."
Sophie Sophie Liya thought of the Eldest Miss's fox junior sister. That child usually looked silent and seemed to be a bit afraid of strangers, but she didn't expect to have some ability.
"Hmm, it can be considered half and half. The script was a work of a senior I saw before. However, the performance was indeed guided by Ao Dai Li."
Dorothy also nodded, then felt a bit regretful.
"Actually, I originally wanted her to perform it herself. Ao Dai Li's acting is indeed nothing to say, but my little junior sister is good at everything, except that she is afraid to open her mouth to speak in front of outsiders. So, she had to guide it, and others had to perform it. This acting is ultimately a bit worse."
The Home Witch recalled what happened during the rehearsal of this opera.
Maybe it was because she couldn't write a good script herself and felt that she had lost her face as a professional, so after Dorothy finished writing the script, Ao Dai Li volunteered to say that she would be responsible for the subsequent performance work.
Even, maybe because she finally waited for a good script, the little fox was a bit "eager to see the hunt." She immediately pulled her sister, who was eating melons on the side, to perform a segment on the spot.
And regarding this, Ma De Lin was also a bit helpless. However, this Martial Arts Club President, who was addicted to practicing martial arts and violated family traditions, was ultimately a person from that kind of artistic family. Growing up in such an environment, her acting skills were actually not bad.
Or rather, Succubi naturally had high-level acting talent. Otherwise, how could they trick men into taking the bait? They could freely manipulate every piece of flesh on their bodies, and naturally, they could also precisely control every detail of their expressions. Even the outrageous descriptions in novels like "three parts arrogance, five parts evil charm, and two parts doting" could be perfectly restored by them.
Thus, Ma De Lin played Luo Miou, Ao Dai Li played Zhu Liye, and the two improvised a performance in the room. The audience was Dorothy and the little fox-person bought from the auction house before.
It had to be said that once an expert made a move, they knew if there was one. The sisters didn't even change their clothes or put on makeup. Just standing there, with a few movements and a few expressions, the feeling came.
Dorothy only felt that she seemed to have a hallucination. The performance started, and the Succubus sisters in front of her had already disappeared, replaced by a pair of young men and women.
The two performed the scene where they first met at the banquet. Thus, the boy, who was originally depressed because he was rejected by his beloved, saw the girl who appeared as the protagonist at the banquet at a glance.
That was the glance. The original pain of heartbreak vanished without a trace, cured without medicine.
The boy only felt that the love he once had seemed fake, and only now did he see what true beauty was.
And the girl also noticed the boy who seemed a bit out of place with the crowd around him. The boy's dullness made her smile inexplicably, and this smile diluted the worry about the marriage her family wanted to arrange for her.
Anyway, with Dorothy's concentration, plus the script was written by her and she knew the plot well, she was still attracted by the sisters' performance at that moment and couldn't move her eyes away until the two finished this segment, and she woke up like a dream.
Then the Home Witch was scared into a cold sweat. She only wanted to ask what kind of power this was. Was this illusion too powerful?
She asked, and the sisters had question marks on their faces. They were just performing, and didn't use any magic.
For such an answer, Dorothy was also stunned.
You call this "performing"? Then what's going on with the full-screen special effects I just saw? I even felt like I appeared at the banquet scene myself, saw the lively party scene, and witnessed the love between the man and woman who fell in love at first sight.
Damn, could it be that those special effects were all imagined by me?
At that moment, the Home Witch felt that the performances she had seen before couldn't be considered performances at all. Her film and television view had been refreshed by the sisters.
This is the acting of a Witch actor?
Originally, the Home Witch was quite curious why the film and television art of the Witch world still stayed at the level of song and dance dramas. Clearly, if they wanted to do it, making a "Magic Shadow" wasn't a problem at all. Any special effects could be completed with one magic spell, and the cost was low and it looked good. Isn't this more interesting than those old-fashioned song and dance dramas?
She only thought that maybe it was because Witches were a war race and art wasn't developed enough. But now she realized it. This isn't a song and dance drama at all. This is a magical version of VR, which truly lets the audience be on the scene.
It's just a pity that because she was the audience, Ao Dai Li, this social-anxiety junior sister, was a mute again this time, embarrassed to open her mouth, and used her broken puppet to read without emotion throughout the whole process.
But even such a perfunctory dubbing didn't make Dorothy lose her immersion, which showed the terror of Ao Dai Li's exquisite acting.
This child could definitely become a big star.
At that moment, Dorothy was incomparably certain in her heart.
It's just a pity that heaven is jealous of talent. Such a powerful actor is actually in the late stage of social anxiety and can't perform on stage at all.
As for recording, this didn't make much sense, because that ability to let the audience be on the scene was only effective when a real person was on stage. If you watched a recording, it was really just an ordinary song and dance drama, at most the acting was a bit better, and it didn't have that heart-shaking effect.
Tsk, in short, I love it, I love it. Ao Dai Li, from now on, I am your number one fan.
The Home Witch entered the pit on the spot. However, she was indeed the first outsider to witness the little fox's performance. After all, before this, Ao Dai Li only dared to perform in front of her family. In this way, "number one fan" really wasn't an exaggeration.
It's just that what made Dorothy slightly unhappy was that she was so proactive, but was ruthlessly rejected by the little fox.
"Senior Sister, although I'm happy you like my performance, you can only be the number two fan. My number one fan already has someone. Even if it's you, Senior Sister, you can't shake her position."
At that time, although Ao Dai Li was a bit shy, she still said it with a very firm tone. She seemed to have a mysterious obsession with this "number one fan."
Of course, the Home Witch wasn't stupid. From the love that wasn't hidden at all in the little junior sister's eyes when she said this, she could tell that this little girl was in love.
Tsk tsk tsk, this sour smell of love.
Although Dorothy shouldn't have any ideas about this little junior sister, and she didn't have any ideas about her to begin with, now that she was suddenly emphasized like this by the little fox, she still felt a bit sour.
Hmph, I don't know which bastard is so lucky. Did they save the world in their previous life? Actually being liked so much by such a cute and perfect girl like Ao Dai Li, it's really souring me to death.
That day, Dorothy left with a mouth full of lemon flavor.
Even now, once she thought of Ao Dai Li's smiling face full of someone, the Home Witch still felt sour in her heart. She turned her head to look at the roommate beside her, then stared at Sophie Sophie Liya's eyes.
"What's wrong? Eldest Miss, is there something on my face?"
Maybe because the body she was currently using wasn't her own, just a mortal woman's body, so it was easily influenced.
Or maybe because the Eldest Miss opposite didn't use her own body either, but appeared in front of her in a man's body.
Or maybe because the two had just watched a love opera together, it was inevitable that their mood was influenced a bit by the plot.
In short, being stared at suddenly like this, Sophie Sophie Liya felt a bit strange in her heart. Clearly, under normal circumstances, she should be more indifferent than anyone else at this time, able to stare at the other party until the other party chickened out first.
But now, the pure white Witch reached out to touch her face first, then shifted her gaze.
Okay, the real reason is actually that she always felt that the plot of this "Luo Miou and Zhu Liye" was getting more and more familiar?
Hmm, the two protagonists have a good relationship, but their families are enemies, and they also long to escape the influence of their families together, yearning for freedom, but such a small wish is so difficult to realize, fate is always teasing people, and there will always be some trouble actively entangling them...
This setting is getting more and more familiar.
Originally, Sophie Sophie Liya thought that this script should have been written by the Eldest Miss's fox junior sister, so she should have over-interpreted it. But just now, the Eldest Miss said that she brought this script out.
Although she also said that she saw it from somewhere, not saying she wrote it herself, but can this really be believed?
Maybe because the Eldest Miss had lied too many times in the past, Sophie Sophie Liya always felt it was still a lie, a bit like the "I have a friend" series.
Then the question is, what does the Eldest Miss mean? Suddenly using this kind of background to write a story, and it's a love story. Is she hinting at something to me?
Sophie Sophie Liya was a cautious and suspicious personality. This suspicion made her think too much, and once she thought too much, trouble came.
And originally she just thought about it herself and wouldn't show it, but the Eldest Miss suddenly stared at her face. Doesn't this make it stone-cold solid?
She is definitely waiting for my reply.
Ah, this, what should I do?
But it shouldn't be. Clearly, before, the teacher intended to grant a marriage, but the Eldest Miss directly refused. Why does she want to go back on her word now?
But why should you go back on your word just because you want to? Do I not need face?
I don't get along with you. If it weren't for the teacher's face, I wouldn't even look at someone like the Eldest Miss.
Sophie Sophie Liya thought a bit awkwardly, but then felt a bit guilty.
Okay, although the person isn't great, has no ambition, and is full of lies, the talent and ability are indeed nothing to say. I will still look at her twice. After all, such a person can become a good chess piece in my hand.
Emmm... forget it, Forest Witch... the water of this chess piece is too deep, I can't grasp it, I should keep a distance.
Ah ah ah... still can't think of how to reply.
After all, the Eldest Miss is the master I will serve in the future. Is it not good to refuse? Moreover, the time spent together recently doesn't seem to be that incompatible. Even if I could eat the Eldest Miss's cooking every day, it would be quite happy. It seems that life isn't that unacceptable.
Moreover, if I really have to find someone to marry, it seems the Eldest Miss is indeed the only choice I can slightly accept.
But it's too fast. I really don't have any ideas about the Eldest Miss right now. I just feel that she isn't that annoying, let alone that I don't know if I can continue to stay in the Witch world after this. What if I'm caught by Mother?
Tsk, damn it, why did the Eldest Miss have to write a tragedy for a story? Is she hinting at something again?
At this moment, Sophie Sophie Liya thought too much in her heart.
And just as the pure white Witch sighed, made up her mind, thinking that anyway there were no other candidates, she could agree first, and feelings could be cultivated slowly later, and Mother's obstruction was only temporary, and after she became stronger, there would always be a way...
However, before she could open her mouth, she heard the man opposite also sigh.
"Tsk, you actually dodged. Boring. Sure enough, that girl who has me in her eyes hasn't appeared yet. Forget it, if you really had me in your eyes, that would be strange. I couldn't stand having a girlfriend like you."
Dorothy scratched her head and said this.
She looked relieved.
Hmm, hmm, also, although Sophie Sophie Liya is indeed great, having such a girlfriend is too tiring. She is too ambitious. If I were really with her, maybe she would turn into that kind of "ghost wife" who is bent on helping her husband rise to power. If that's the case, it would be hard to slack off, thinking about it makes me tired.
If I really have to find someone to marry, actually, someone with a personality like Ao Dai Li or Senior Senior Miya is better. Little junior sister is cute and obedient, and won't have the risk of being henpecked. And Senior Senior Miya can spoil me into a useless person who can't take care of herself after leaving her.
Oh, right, Ma De Lin also seems not bad, but her personality feels best as a lover. After all, she is too wild, martial arts is the first in her heart, she is simply not the material for living together.
And just as Dorothy was thinking about who was the best wife in her heart, she suddenly noticed something wrong.
"Not good, Sophie Sophie Liya, there is murderous intent, danger."
Suddenly, a strange sense of crisis surged in her heart, as if she was being stared at by some terrifying beast. Dorothy's body stiffened, and she sensed danger.
She subconsciously hugged the roommate beside her, protected her in her arms, and then vigilantly looked around, searching for the source of that murderous intent.
However, after searching for a long time, she found nothing. She had to scratch her head and let go of Sophie Sophie Liya in her arms.
"Strange, clearly I felt murderous intent just now. Could it be an illusion? This human body is really trash, the feeling isn't sensitive at all."
Dorothy complained like this, and then looked at the roommate beside her with some strangeness.
"Uh, Sophie Sophie Liya, are you okay? Why is your face so red?"
