Chapter 259

Qin Jie nodded in satisfaction.

"Watch the show, watch the show. I just love watching this kind of beating of a faithless man."

"The Trial of Galileo by the Santang Society?" Uncle Yu swallowed, his voice turning a bit dry.

"Old Guo, is this traditional Peking Opera?"

Guo Dagang's face was pitch black.

"That... watch the show, watch the show..."

Xiao Xiao Yueyue's face stiffened: "No, Master, you saw it wrong!"

On the screen, the sound of gongs and drums rose, and a large-faced character in a python robe walked out quickly, taking his stance behind a table.

"Rebels and traitors are truly detestable,"

"Disbelieving in God, believing in science."

"The Santang Society tries Galileo,"

26 "Determined to sweep away the heliocentric theory!"

"Pfft~~~" Guo Qilin burst out laughing.

"Dad, why does this play feel a bit unprofessional?"

"Look at his hat; he's actually painted a cross on it. What kind of large-faced character has such a look?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a small gong sounded inside the screen, and the large-faced character continued to recite.

"I am the Cardinal of the Roman Church!"

"Sent by the Pope to judge the case of Galileo~~~~"

What the heck?

Inside the Deyun Society, a group of people instantly fell into chaos.

Guo Dagang let out a cold snort and said lightly.

"Guo Qilin, it seems letting you drop out of school so early was my lack of consideration."

"Later, find a set of junior high physics books and take a look..."

As the accompaniment sounded, a singing voice rose from below the stage.

"Hearing a shout from inside the church~~~"

Immediately, amidst the gongs and drums, Su Meng, dressed in opera costume, walked onto the stage supported by a character in blue.

"Su Meng! It's Su Meng! He's really singing opera!"

Reba excitedly jumped up at once.

"Don't interrupt, watch the show, watch the show!" Boss Yang patted her, only then calming her down.

On the screen, Su Meng continued to sing.

"Here comes I, Galileo, a scholar."

"With the Cardinal sitting majestically in the middle,"

"I fear today I cannot escape these cruel laws and tortures~~~"

"Eh? Su Meng sings very well!" Reba exclaimed again.

Boss Yang exploded instantly, covering her mouth directly.

"I said, watch the show properly!"

"Are you here to watch the show or to watch handsome men?"

On the computer screen, the large-faced Cardinal let out a loud shout.

"Bold Galileo, having come to the hall, why do you not make the sign of the cross?"

"This..." Su Meng hesitated for a moment, then suddenly slammed his hands together as if he had an idea.

"I have a Master in my heart; making the sign is unnecessary!"

"Hahaha, having a Master in the heart, making the sign is unnecessary..."

In the living room, the girl burst into laughter again.

"Grandpa, Su Meng singing opera is so interesting."

Grandpa rarely criticized her this time; instead, he nodded, his face full of approval.

"Not bad, the few lines just now were sung with proper rhythm and beat; your voice is truly excellent."

"Isn't he a funeral Master? How does he know how to sing opera?"

"Could it be he started out playing the suona in an opera troupe?"

The girl scratched her head, not knowing how to explain.

She could only helplessly change the subject.

"Watch the show, watch the show; this play is truly interesting."

Inside the screen, Su Meng has already continued singing.

"Galileo was born in that small town of Pisa,"

The clown priest beside him immediately replied with a line.

"A country bumpkin!"

Su Meng sang: "Since childhood, I have loved physics and astronomy most."

The priest recited: "Rebellious since childhood."

Su Meng sang: "I once watched the great bell and calculated its swing,"

The priest intoned: "That was all just your guessing."

Su Meng sang: "I once gazed at the bright moon—"

The priest intoned: "And then what?"

Su Meng sang: "—It was all just huge pits."

The priest intoned: "Nonsense."

Su Meng sang: "Writing books and teaching at the Jiao Sect sustains my life; I wander through Naples, Genoa, Rome, and Turin, renowned far and wide."

The priest intoned: "You're still a fugitive."

"Excellent!" Uncle Yu couldn't help but clap and praise.

The group of disciples were all stunned.

You're calling this excellent?

With lyrics like these, sung in Peking Opera, doesn't it feel utterly incongruous to you, elder?

But... incongruous as it is, why does it feel somewhat addictive?

Guo Dagang also nodded repeatedly.

"Excellent, the singing is truly wonderful!"

"Among so many of us in the De Yun Society, no one can compare."

Uncle Yu nodded and added further.

"Moreover, this clown role resembles the supporting partner in crosstalk."

"Integrating the humor of crosstalk into Peking Opera; little junior brother's mind truly has ideas."

The group of disciples were completely dumbfounded.

Master, Uncle, have you two been brainwashed by Su Meng?

Why does he look good in every single way?

On the screen, the plot continued to advance.

The Bishop, having failed to interrogate Galileo, began to interrogate his daughter Maria, questioning her about the telescope.

The actress playing the female lead today is a famous dan role from Troupe Three, and her singing is full of flavor.

"My mother passed away in early years, leaving father and daughter to spend their remaining days."

"The uncle next door also passed away early; his widow aunt is as beautiful as a fairy."

"My father thinks of her all day long, but without a matchmaker, there are few opportunities."

"Therefore, I made a telescope, leaning on the window to satisfy my cravings~~~"
