Chapter 14

Mr. Li bent his body, picked up a bowl of steaming rice porridge and drank it, not caring the temperature of the rice porridge at all.

The old man who had breakfast came to the room alone and sang opera.

Peking opera is the most particular, and makeup is essential if you want to sing well.

As the saying goes, red is loyal and purple is filial, black is true and fan is old, water is white and treacherous, oily and white is arrogant.Yellow is ruthless, gray is greedy, blue is brave and green is impatient, gods and Buddhas are spirits, and gold and silver shine everywhere.

The colors of the masks are different and have different meanings.

White face represents treachery, such as Cao Cao, a treacherous official of the Three Kingdoms; red represents bravery, such as Guan Yu, a general of the Three Kingdoms; occasionally there are villains with red, which is a kind of allusion to irony, such as Liu Jin, the great eunuch of the Ming Dynasty, but this is not often the case .

Black represents justice and honesty, such as Bao Zheng, an upright official in the Song Dynasty.

Blue represents bravery and strategy, such as Dou Erdun, a hero in the Qing Dynasty.

Yellow represents toughness and brutality, such as Yuwen Chengdu, a general of the Sui Dynasty.

Purple represents majesty and decisiveness, such as Zhuan Zhuan, an assassin in the Warring States Period.

Green represents recklessness, such as Cheng Yaojin in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Pink represents old age, such as Su Xian, a famous official in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Gold and silver represent various gods and monsters. For example, the gods and Buddhas in Journey to the West will be pasted with gold and silver powder.

In this regard, Weng Ouhong, a dramatist of the older generation, once summed up the colors of Peking Opera facial makeup in this way:
Red is loyal, purple is filial, black is true and old.

The water is white and treacherous, and the oil is white and arrogant.

Yellow is fierce and gray and greedy, while blue is brave and green is violent.

The gods, Buddhas and spirits shine with gold and silver.

As the inheritors of the opera family, the Li family pays great attention to details, and the slightest flaw will attract abuse. This is not only responsible for the individual, but also for the opera listeners.

But there are still a lot of people who get the facial makeup wrong. As time flies, young people's view of opera will gradually become indifferent until it completely disappears from people's vision.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the prosperity and rapid decline.

During the period of the Republic of China, opera became people's yearning, and it took a long time to learn it, and some people even couldn't grasp the essence of the opera in their entire lives.

What is the essence is to completely integrate yourself into the opera and evolve into a performer. You are him, and he is you.

This is the highest level of drama.

A lot of reality is hidden in the details of the face, but people are used to comprehensively feel the appearance of people.

"Xiao'er, come here."

Hearing the movement, Li Xiao put down his work, turned around and came to the door of the old man's room, and bowed his hands: "Grandpa, call me."

"I have a friend coming, you go and greet him."

"Friend?" Li Xiao was puzzled, "Grandpa, what's your friend's name? Where is it now?"

The old man said: "Be careful in the woods outside the village."

Seeing the mysterious look of the old man, Li Xiao murmured in his heart, could it be an old man, well, it is said that grandpa was a more romantic person when he was young, and he has only lived a stable life since he had his father.

Li Xiao doesn't know who the grandma is, but what is clear is that she is not dead, and is very likely to be a strong person in the alien world.

According to the old man's instructions, Li Xiao came to the forest at the entrance of the village. There were dense trees growing here, and it was also the largest forest in Jiangcheng District, covering a radius of hundreds of miles.

Entering here hastily escaped death. If you are not familiar with this place, you will easily lose your way and end up starved to death. Even if you are lucky not to starve to death, then the wolves, tigers and leopards in the forest will naturally not let the food in their mouths leave easily.

Li Xiao didn't know the name or the location, so he could only search blindly.

"The boxwood pole is soft, so my brother, Hariya."

The beautiful and melodious tune wandered back and forth in the dense forest, and Li Xiao's footsteps also stopped at the sound of the tune.

Li Xiao moved his ears and felt that the song was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he heard it.

While he was immersed in the music, two figures, one old and one young, came not far away.

The old man is thin and thin, but he has a strange aura, which makes people want to find out.

And beside the old man is a female doll.

She looks like a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed very casually, with messy long hair, dull eyes, expressionless face, and a bit stooped, basically no femininity.

Because of her pretty face, plump breasts, tall figure and fair skin, as long as she keeps a clean and upright figure, she doesn't need to dress up at all.

Li Xiao watched the two vigilantly.

The old man squinted his eyes halfway, and said with great interest: "Innate Qi, boy, what's your name?"

Li Xiao could also feel the extraordinaryness of the two of them. Obviously, they were also different people, and they were also powerful.

There are no portraits of the two in the grandfather's roster, which means that their strength is not enough for the old man to see.

But I need to pay more attention to it. Today's Li Xiao thinks that he is not capable of defeating the elders.

"Whatever his name is, interrupt my singing, just bury him."

Li Xiao paused in his heart, and the figure of that person could not help appearing in his mind. Isn't this Feng Baobao who likes to bury people in the ground?
Apart from her, Li Xiao couldn't think of anyone else who would say such a thing.

"Take my move, Poison Dragon Drill!"

Hearing Feng Baobao's calm voice, Li Xiao's mouth twitched suddenly.

Just come and fight, it's too much.

boom!
A powerful force instantly condensed on Feng Baobao's fist, and immediately hit Li Xiao's stomach heavily.

Li Xiao's complexion confirmed that the speed was so fast, if he hadn't practiced "Hongmeng Body Refining Technique" by himself, he would probably be lying on the ground unconscious by now.

Feng Baobao frowned slightly: "Why are you okay?"

The old man also showed a trace of hesitation, Ah Wu's strength is so powerful that he can't defeat a young man with one blow?

"See the flaw clearly, watch me push the cart!"

Feng Baobao flipped his palm and patted Li Xiao's body.

"I'll wipe it, this is still tricky."

Li Xiao's face turned pale instantly, and now he can be [-]% sure that she is Feng Baobao!

The sour pain made Li Xiao break out in a cold sweat. This girl doesn't play cards according to common sense. How can anyone make a joke in front of everyone? Young people don't talk about martial arts!

However, before Li Xiao could catch his breath, a black shadow descended from the sky.

"The technique that fell from the sky, the feeling of Monkey Sailei."

"Guanyin... ZUO lotus!"

Li Xiao scolded: "Damn it, this is talent!"

Boom!

After the loud noise, the ground was instantly "sit" out of a big pit.

Gouwazi in the distance scratched his head, "What did Ah Wu just say? I didn't hear clearly."

"It seems that I have to show you some talent." Li Xiao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Hongjiaquan!"

With a punch, the air was smashed and spread to the surroundings, and the momentum was like a stormy sea, and it was shocked towards Feng Baobao's position.
