Theatrical Stage
"Opera sound? Where did the opera sound come from?"
The figure wearing black headscarf uncomprehendingly opened mouth, "ăCrane Elderă, did you hear it?"
ăCrane Elderă leaning on ăWalking Stickă, slightly shook head, "Didn't hear."
"No, really have ah!" The youth while wiping the fresh blood at the corner of mouth, while dancing with hands and feet gesturing, "That sound is so close, feeling exactly at the ear side... I heard he is singing what, 'weapons and banners'? 'swords and spears surrounding'?"
Headscarf figure eyebrows tightly locked. He pricked up ears again carefully listening up. But surrounding besides the sobbing wind sound, and rain drops falling sound, again no other.
"Don't have the sound you said... you should be hallucinating hearing."
"But..."
"Not right." ăCrane Elderă both eyes gazing at that blank drawing paper, suddenly opened mouth.
"Where not right?"
"Obviously exactly within the range of ăEnclosure Circleă. ăRetained Imageă yet unable to confirm ăSix of Heartsă's position. Explaining the place he is at, very possibly doesn't belong to this piece of space... Moreover in the process of retracing, you also said heard opera sound..."
ăCrane Elderă eyebrows increasingly wrinkling tighter. He still was preparing to say something. On that blank drawing paper, suddenly appeared a small dot.
"Yi? This is..."
The youth staggeringly stood up from the ground. In eyes flashed a smear of doubt.
The small dot in the center of the drawing paper, began to enlarge with a speed visible to the naked eye. As if there was something currently flying shooting out from within. A spear shadow in the blink of an eye then occupied more than half of the drawing paper. Piercing through paper surface, exactly like lightning generally throwing out!
Just at this time, ăCrane Elderă's shouting sound abruptly sounded:
"Careful!!!"
Whooshââ!!
That spear shadow with a boom pierced into the youth's chest. Terrifying kinetic energy bringing along his body rushing into heavy rain!
"ăCrane Elderă save..." The youth's terrified asking for help sound sounded. Next moment then came to an abrupt end.
That spear shadow appeared too fast. Moreover angle extremely tricky and eerie. Even if it was close at hand ăCrane Elderă and headscarf figure all didn't manage to react over. Waiting until they clearly saw what happened time. That spear shadow already brought the youth, again vanishing out of thin air!
Hua la laââ
Rain water exactly as usual watering the ruins. Regardless if it was spear shadow or youth, all exactly like ghosts vanishing without a trace... A few seconds ago still pondering tracking Chen Ling's three people. In an instant then only left two people. Isolatedly standing under the bridge.
If not for the ground still remaining the youth's blood trace. Headscarf figure almost thought just now only was a hallucination... Until right now, he still hasn't recovered spirit over from the shadow of that spear.
"Crane, ăCrane Elderă... just now that was..." He blankly looking at the direction the youth disappeared, voice somewhat tremblingly opening mouth.
ăCrane Elderă fiercely turned head. Aged gaze locked onto that drawing paper. Face color incomparably ugly,
"Damn it..."
"In this town, not only has ăSix of Heartsă??"
...
Whooshââ!!
Just when Chen Ling and Li Qingshan doubted ăGao Chongă's spear exactly went to what direction. A breaking air sound again sounded from ăOn Stageă!
The vanished ăGold-Inlaid Tiger-Head Speară swept out from nothingness, returning anew to ăGao Chongă's hand. At the same time, on the spear tip a body under inertia effect flying backwards out. Successively rolling several circles on the ăStageă ground. Plunging headlong into amidst ăWuzhuă's queue at the edge of the ăStageă.
Drops of scarlet fresh blood dripping down along ăGold-Inlaid Tiger-Head Speară. ăGao Chongă's expression didn't have the slightest fluctuation. White clothes ăSilver Armoră fluttering with the wind. As if just now he only casually killed an enemy army minor pawn, using this to cheer up own army's morale!
And conversely looking at the side's ăWuzhuă, then was angered eyebrows standing upside down, face and eyes fierce and malicious.
All this happened so shockingly world-startling. But ăOn Stageă, yet had a kind of entirely natural feeling. As if this play originally exactly should perform like this... If not Chen Ling clearly saw that flying backwards out was a living person. Afraid really would think these all are arrangements and props ăOn Stageă.
ăGao Chongă is fine, ăWuzhuă let it be. Their ăPerformanceă truly was too natural. Looking even didn't look at that flying out body a glance...
They still are in the play!
"...As a great man,
Facing the battle engaging weapons, living having no joy, dying then what fear; not entering tiger's den, how to get tiger's cub!
ăGao Chongă wholeheartedly protecting the country,
Killing enemies saving master establishing merit!"
Along with the ăPerformanceă ăOn Stageă gradually advancing, a great battle pulled open curtain. Although actors ăOn Stageă are not many. But under their extremely infectious singing lyrics, and just right scene sound effects. Infectiousness extremely strong incomparably.
"Just now that spear exactly went to where... that person again is who?" Chen Ling's focus point still was on the corner's figure. Frowning pondering.
He just desiring to turn head and Li Qingshan saying something. Yet discovering Li Qingshan both eyes tightly staring at the ăStageă. In eye pupils emitting faint weak light, as if entering deep meditation generally. Even if Chen Ling tried calling him, also didn't have any reaction.
Chen Ling seeing Li Qingshan's state. Slightly blanked. Following that like sensing something, suddenly raised head looking towards the sky.
Above the vault of heaven shrouded by dark clouds. A smear of vermilion red as if penetrating cloud layers, gemstone-like dotting there. A burst of familiar ăAuraă lingered in Chen Ling's heart head.
"ăPath of the Actoră...?"
That star, Chen Ling couldn't be more familiar. At that time in ăAurora Domaină, he also once set foot amidst it.
Only watching a performance, Li Qingshan then obtained ăPath of the Actoră's favor? If it is like this. Then this performance unavoidably also too magical... This exactly is the serendipity coming from ăAncient Vault of the Drama Pathă?
Chen Ling of course clearly knows. Li Qingshan own talent, accumulation, and state of mind, only then is the decisive factor of him stepping on this Divine Path. Otherwise changing one sitting here watching ten times a hundred times, afraid also completely no harvest... for example Chen Ling himself. So rather than saying this performance created Li Qingshan, better saying lightly poked through the window paper of Li Qingshan and ăPath of the Actoră. Letting him ahead of time obtained the thing originally exactly should obtain.
Chen Ling complexly looked a glance at the entering deep meditation Li Qingshan. Anew taking gaze landing towards ăStageă. At this time ăWuzhuă in front of body more a few uniquely shaped cart-shaped props. Both sides' slaughtering already reached white-hot stage.
...
Under the ăBridge Underpassă.
"Not only ăSix of Heartsă?!" The figure wearing black headscarf greatly shocked, "ăCrane Elderă, your meaning is..."
"We are targeted by someone."
ăCrane Elderă gloomily opening mouth. Sky-filling white cranes surrounding in his sky above. Seven-tier's ăOppressive Auraă instantly shrouded great earth!
"I instead want to see, is who wanting to be enemies with my ăFloating Life Paintingă?!" ăCrane Elderă one grab grabbing down that poked broken drawing paper, throwing to the side's white crane. Among them one white crane taking it picking up in mouth. Hovering half circle in mid-air, rapidly flying towards east!
"In that direction!"
Pu leng lengââ
Sky-filling white cranes like locking onto a certain position. In eyes seeping out a smear of blood red. With astonishing speed sweeping out towards east. ăCrane Elderă bringing that figure wearing black headscarf separately stepping on two white cranes, along with the crane flock overwhelmingly flying away.
Thousand cranes madly sweeping. This scene instantly attracted ăWillow Townă residents' attention. They shockingly walked out from houses. Looking at the scene exactly like divine miracle above head, bowing head then worshipping!
In ăCrane Elderă's eyes killing intent flashing. Just when he riding white crane, gaze four directions seeking. The headscarf figure behind suddenly opened mouth:
"Crane... ăCrane Elderă..."
"What?"
"I seemingly... also heard opera singing sound?"
ăCrane Elderă blanked. He turned head looking back. Only seeing headscarf figure exactly same as the ăRetained Imageă just now. Both eyes blankly looking around all sides...
At this moment, in headscarf figure's gaze. This sky-filling flying white cranes, and ăCrane Elderă standing on white crane back and himself... as if all began to twist and deform. Their bodies began to appear edges and corners. Their skin dyed on metallic luster. Their voices gradually became ear-piercing squeaking sounds...
In his unbelievable gaze. Everything around, seemingly all turned into one by one heavy and clumsy crude ăIron Sliding Cartsă.
