Show life in spy war drama

Chapter 54

"I said 'Huang Shiren'! Can't you sit still for a while? Look at how calm 'Mu Renzhi' is!" The director couldn't stand it anymore. He was disturbed by Xu Zhongyi's "perseverance" spirit chaos.

"Director, I...why am I so nervous?"

"Hey! It's like this for the first time on stage. But remember, don't always look down the stage after you come on stage, it will make you more nervous. You just think that you are rehearsing, and you just need to play out what you have practiced. , then it’s all work!”

"Oh... I don't look at it, I don't look at it..."

As a theater director, the biggest problem he faces is not those experienced old actors, but these small roles without any acting experience.Why is it that in the Beijing opera industry, no one dares to easily let a novice with excellent talents take the lead?It's just that the novice lacks experience.If the performance fails, the whole team may not even be able to drink the northwest wind.

Therefore, the director was even more nervous than Xu Zhongyi.But he was nervous, he couldn't let others see it.Otherwise, under the chain reaction, the whole play would be ruined.

The curtain opened and the show began.As soon as the announcer returned to the backstage, he heard earth-shattering applause from the courtyard.

"Daughter-in-law, this "White-haired Girl" is about our Hebei affairs, right?" Yang Kecheng, who had just returned from the mountain city and served as the head of the social department of the military region, asked his lover, Sister Li.

"Yes! This is adapted from a folklore in Hebei."

"Oh... Then you have to take a good look, who said that Hebei is our hometown?"

"Okay! Let's watch a show!"

.......
Xi'er accompanied her aunt to the meeting. At this time, it was Mu Renzhi's turn to play.Lin Mu held a lantern with the words "Jishantang Huang" written on it, and it appeared wobbly.Why wobble?Because it is dark, the gravel road is not easy to walk, so you should pay attention to your steps.But "the road is not easy to walk" can't be said with words, it has to be acted out.To solve this problem, Xu Zhongyi thought of the mountain roads in Chongqing.Because it is going up and down, so when walking at night, you must press your waist with one hand and lean sideways to explore the road.He used this feature on the stage, and the result was unexpected.In the eyes of outsiders, the walking posture of "Mu Renzhi" is very funny, and he seems to be a little limping when he shakes.So some young people couldn't help it, and started to "giggle" and laugh.

"Huh?" Looking at "Mu Renzhi" in disbelief, Yang Kecheng's eyebrows suddenly frowned. "What's the matter?" Sister Li looked at him puzzled.

"Oh! It's nothing, let's continue watching the show."

……

"Ask for rent, ask for rent, and ask for bills. I have four treasures hidden by my side: an incense stick, a gun, a kidnapper, and a basket. When I see my master, I burn incense, and when I see a tenant, I shoot guns. I can kidnap as much as I can. Lie it if you can..." Lin Mu sang with gusto.Although his appearance was influenced by his original body, he had somewhat of an obscene temperament, but his voice was very good.Therefore, he sang more and more cheerfully and relaxedly, and he was getting better and better in the role of "dog leg".

The director heaved a sigh of relief, his pounding heart finally calmed down.

But in the audience, there was a person whose face was getting more and more nervous.

Yang Kecheng stared at every move of "Mu Renzhi", especially his behavior of sticking outside the gate of Yang's house and eavesdropping on the voices inside.His eyes suddenly lit up. "Professional...too professional..."

"Old Yang? Are you okay?" Sister Li patted him and said in a low voice, "Everyone is watching a play, what's the matter with you always chattering?"

"Daughter-in-law, you actor...where did you come from? Why haven't you seen it before?"

"A captive from the KMT's recalcitrant army... Hey! I said, Lao Yang, have you committed another occupational disease? Everyone looks like a spy? Tell you, the central government has just issued an instruction to suspect who is a spy. There must be evidence, and the random arrests like the previous "suppression of counter-revolutionaries" will definitely not work."

"I know, let's watch the drama first..." Yang Kecheng didn't look at Xi'er, nor did he look at other characters. He focused on "Mu Renzhi" and "Huang Shiren".Not only did he keep a close eye on it, but he also took out his notebook and recorded it quietly.When Xi'er, who became a white-haired girl, encountered Huang and Mu in the ruined temple, he stared at "Mu Renzhi" and "Huang Shiren" intently, refusing to give up every detail.

"Old Yang! What are you doing? Why did you even remember which leg "Mu Renzhi" took first?"

"Hush!" With his index finger on his lips, Yang Kecheng said intently, "Honey, I bet you. When Mu Renzhi walks into the ruined temple, he will definitely lean against the window."

"Huh? Why?" Sister Li asked curiously.

Yang Kecheng didn't answer, he just said silently in his heart: "Retreat!"

Xi'er, who is neither human nor ghost, held up the censer. She was full of hatred and wanted to completely seek justice from this class of enemies.But it's a pity that before the scene that Lao Yang was looking forward to appeared, the soldiers and civilians who had already cried together on the field rushed to throw shoes, stones, benches...all to Huang and Mu...

"Huang Shiren! You bastard!" A tearful soldier pushed the bullet with a "crash", gritted his teeth and picked up the gun...

"Bah..."

The sound of the gunshots was clear, and the green smoke gradually fell, and the audience completely fell silent...

"Liu Dazhi! What are you going to do?" An officer held the soldier's gun, his face pale with fright.

"Ah! This..." He was stunned, and the soldier immediately woke up, "I...I...I..."

"What's going on?" Captain Zhao stood up angrily.It is not a trivial matter for the troops to shoot at will, especially in front of the leaders, the impact must be extremely bad.

"Are you out of your mind? Huh?" The officer almost popped his eyes out, pointing to the platform, and sternly shouted at the soldier, "This is acting, do you understand? Ah? Do you understand? Shoot at your comrades , what is the nature of this? Ah?"

……

The scene was chaotic, and the leaders also left the table one after another.Those who should deal with the problems should be dealt with, and those who should be evacuated should be evacuated. Only Lao Yang still sat still.He stared at Lin Mu and Young Master Qi intently, with an imperceptible sneer on the corner of his mouth.

The moment the gun rang, when everyone turned to look at the soldier, he found that "Huang Shiren" suddenly stood in front of "Xi'er", and tightly protected "Xi'er" with a part of his body that was not easily penetrated by bullets. "Er"...and Lin Mu quickly rolled around and came to the corner.

"specialized……"

At the same time, Lin Mu's gaze also drifted towards Yang Kecheng.Professional sensitivity told him that he and Mr. Qi had been exposed.

The two looked at each other silently, trying their best to find the imperceptible flaws in each other.Lin Mu found that Yang Kecheng had a notebook on his knees, and the fingers holding the fountain pen were gently tapping on his knees...

"The fingers subconsciously tap, which means that he is thinking. Staring at me, that is probably thinking about me."

"He's paying attention to me too..." Yang Kecheng closed the notebook, already thinking about it, "He can quickly capture the dangers around him, and accurately locate the source of danger. Hehe! Boy, what have you guys done before, and you still use me again?" explain?"
