Under one person: My cat turned out to be a traveling beast

Chapter 6 1 minute on stage and ten years off stage.

At dawn the next day, the golden rooster announced the dawn.

Li Xiao, who was still soundly asleep, was awakened by the rapid knock on the door. Before he could ask who it was, the wooden door was kicked open.

Li Xiao suddenly sat up, "What's the matter?"

Li Pingfan rolled up his sleeves, frowned and scolded: "You check what time it is, and you are still sleeping here, your grandfather took a job, and got up in a hurry."

Li Xiao is really dumb and can't tell if he suffers from eating Coptis chinensis. This is the No. 18 time he kicked the door open this month. If Li Pingfan was not his own father, he would have put him in the door frame no matter what.

Get dressed and go out of the room.

The troupe members have assembled, and they can set off after the troupe master strikes the gong.

Mr. Li wore a clean green leather coat and a sheepskin hat today, and lit his bong under the witness of everyone.

With a slur, he said, "Have they all come?"

Li Pingfan replied: "Father, they are all here."

Mr. Li picked up the gong he handed over, rang it in front of everyone, and shouted: "Start work!"

"Yo!"

The gongs and drums are loud, and the firecrackers are all fired.

The Li family troupe officially opened for business.

In the bustling city, towering and spectacular tall buildings stand neatly and orderly on both sides of the street.

The passers-by on the side of the street were dressed in very trendy clothes. It was obviously winter, but there were girls with bare legs walking up and down the street.

There are even some spirited guys in leggings and peas shoes shooting videos on the side of the road.

Sitting in the carriage, Li Xiao kept looking back and forth at the group of young ladies.

Li Pingfan slapped it over and sternly said, "What are you looking at!"

"How many times has your father taught you that you are still young and can't grasp it. If your heart is infected by the world, even your father may not be able to save you!"

After finishing speaking, Li Pingfan murmured: "These poor children are so poor that they don't even wear pants, tsk tsk tsk."

Li Xiao felt a little wronged.

Is it still a boy if you don't look at girls?
And if you don't talk about it with gusto, it's a bit too much to take pictures with your mobile phone.

"I just look at their bare legs, wondering if they are cold, nothing else."

Mr. Li glanced at the father and son and said: "Okay, stop discussing thighs, get ready, the performance is about to begin."

"Understood, dad." Li Pingfan replied with a smile, but his eyes never shifted, until the carriage stopped and he looked away reluctantly.

Outside the Rose Building, a middle-aged man in a padded jacket had been waiting for a long time. When he noticed the Li family troupe, he hurried over with a slightly respectful voice: "Master Li, you are here. "

Mr. Li nodded and smiled slightly: "Boss Zhu doesn't need to be too polite, we can start now."

"Naturally, why don't you prepare first?"

"Yeah." Mr. Li turned his head and waved his arms. Everyone in the troupe jumped up from the carriage and transferred the equipment in the carriage to the room that Boss Zhu had prepared in advance.

In order to sing well, makeup is essential.

Among the members of the Li family opera troupe, there is a makeup artist who specializes in doing makeup for several people, and his techniques are also very skilled. He would not dare to take on this job without decades.

Li Xiao started to fight, and when he saw the old man smoking a pipe, he walked forward unconsciously, and said in a low voice, "Grandpa, why don't you let me try it too."

Mr. Li put down his pipe, and said with a weird expression: "Xiao'er, your voice is not pure, and it is in stark contrast to your appearance. Grandpa can't throw the sign in his hands."

"Besides, you reported that you put down the pick, but it's a big taboo."

The ancestors once left a rule, once the play starts, all directions come to listen, one side is a human, the third side is a ghost, and the four sides are gods. No one listens to it, but it does not mean that there are no ghosts and gods.

That is to say, once the play starts, it must not stop. This is the rule left by the ancestors.

If you touch the bottom line, the consequences will be disastrous.

Li Xiao naturally knew the taboo, but he came from an opera family, so if he was known to be unable to sing, he would have to laugh his ass off.

Mr. Li loved this industry very much when he was young. He commanded everyone throughout the process and could not tolerate any mistakes. His strict personality made him the boss in everyone's hearts.

It is said that actors are ruthless, but who knows, actors are tossed and lost in other people's stories, and shed all their own tears.Just like Dieyi, who is too deeply involved in the play, he doesn't know how to play until he dies.

The play is ready to begin.

There were already crowds of people in front of the stage.

Hundreds of people rubbed shoulders and squeezed forward with their heads sharpened.

I'm afraid I'm too late to hear the content of the storytelling clearly, or miss a few words.

However, although the scene was crowded, it was exceptionally quiet.

Everyone pricked up their ears, not daring to breathe, for fear of disturbing the Li family theater troupe.

If someone made a loud noise, it would immediately attract glaring looks.

When Boss Zhu saw that the influence of the Li family opera troupe was so great, he was also glad that he had found the right person, and looked at the opera on stage with excitement.

Li Pingfan also sang "The Drunken Concubine".Today, he wears a phoenix crown on his head, cloud shoulders on his upper body, a jade belt on his waist, and a skirt on his lower body.

Cloud shoulders are often decorated with square and four-in-one cloud patterns, which are made of brocade embroidery, known as the four-in-one ruyi style, and the patterns are mostly peonies, blessings and longevity.

Everyone held their breath and concentrated, afraid that they would miss any word in their ears, and only applauded when there was a break.

The drunken concubine is divided into three scenes. In the first scene, when she sings "The Ice Wheel on the Sea Island Turns", she wears a phoenix crown on her head, a python robe on her body, cloud shoulders, a horse face skirt around her waist, and a golden fan in her hand.

In the second scene, she was drunk and changed costumes, wearing a phoenix crown, a colorful palace dress, cloud shoulders, and a pleated skirt inside.

Most of the people who listen to operas are elderly people. For the quintessence of China, they love and respect them very much. Nowadays, there are not many such good operas.

Mr. Li sat on a wooden chair made of mahogany with a pipe in his mouth, crossing his legs, "Xiao'er, if you want to sing, you must not only have a good voice, but also have a lung capacity that surpasses ordinary people."

"Your lung capacity is not bad, it's just this voice..." At this point, the old man hesitated for a while, "You can also try it, if you can, our Li family opera troupe is not the best."

Li Xiao's eyes lit up and he said, "I understand Grandpa, so I'm going to put on makeup now?"

The old man pinched Li Xiao's ear, and scolded with a smile: "You boy, are you in a hurry again? As the saying goes, you have ten years of practice in one minute on stage, and you haven't practiced for so many years. You can't smash your sign on stage Yeah."

Li Xiao is 16 years old this year, it is too late to sing opera at this age, unless he is talented and can learn it at a glance, maybe he still has the opportunity to learn.

According to the old man, Li Pingfan started practicing lung capacity at the age of three, and was able to sing "Farewell My Concubine" at the age of five.

Can be considered a genius.
