The necromancer just wants to plant trees.

Chapter 99 The Lord of Plague Greets Everyone

……

on a dimly lit stage.

The closed curtain slowly opened, and the magic spotlights on both sides immediately followed——

A tall and handsome man in a bold and unrestrained island-style costume flipped several somersaults from behind the stage, and walked up bouncing all the way.

The light hit him alone, illuminating his white teeth and innocent smile.

Then the youthful male voice chanted:

"The island winds brought me to the beach.

She said go to sea, boy!

Go to sea, sailor!

There are treasures of your dreams in the sea.

There is a girl you fall in love with at first sight in the sea.

I said no to Island Breeze.

There is no dream in the sea.

There is no home in the sea.

The wind of the island leads me to the cliff.

She said fly, boy!

Fly, warrior!

There is freedom in the sky that you chase day and night.

In heaven there is the courage you have longed for.

I said no to Island Breeze.

The sky does not have my dreams.

The sky is not my hometown.

The island winds lead me to the mountains.

She said work hard, boy!
Plow it, Chief!
The mountains are filled with the tranquility of a paradise.

The fragrance of spring planting and autumn storage is floating in the mountains.

I said no to Island Breeze.

Although the mountain is my hometown.

The mountain is not my life's dream.

The wind of the island led me to the shaman's hut.

The shaman asked me—

young prince.

Where are you going? "

At this time.

The chant stopped.

Only the hero on the stage stared affectionately into the distance and sang:
"I said I wanted to leave the beautiful and rich island of Pantura, I said I wanted to leave the arms of the strict father and loving mother.

I want to go to the hundreds of cities and states on land, and visit every inch of soil outside the island.

The wind of the island and my parents, please don't worry about it.

When the wanderer came back after reading Qianfan, I had become a household poet! "

The curtain quickly opened.

A few actors dressed as natives of the island rushed forward.

The two parents who played the role of the male lead hugged him exaggeratedly, and each performed a very difficult rival dance.

In the end, with the blessings of everyone and the narrator.

The young prince of the island, Duradin, left Pantura and went to the vast land to learn the art of becoming a bard by himself.

During this period.

He was deceived because of his language barrier, ridiculed because of his weird appearance, and harassed because of his handsome appearance.

But none of this interrupted his eagerness to become a great poet.

This scene is almost all the hero's solo play.

Except for the narration and the passers-by you meet from time to time.

The entire dark stage relies on the male lead alone to attract the attention of the audience.

Even Matthew had to admit it.

This guy named Brandon may indeed have a big problem with his personal morality, but his acting skills are really superb.

A person's one-man show stupefied made him perform extremely lively.

last second.

The prince he plays is still making sharp and funny comments in line with the identity of the island's natives on various strange phenomena in the mainland cities.

It made the audience laugh out loud.

next second.

However, he vividly interprets the embarrassment of being deceived by a CD because of a mistaken belief in a traitor, and finally sleeping on the street and suffering from bitter wind and rain.

Some female audience members even sobbed softly.

This situation was not relieved until Duradin met the long-famous poet Donald.

Afterwards the prince lived in Donald's house, and began to study diligently the poet's skills.

The first act ends with a bad joke from the great poet Donald.

The second act is coming in full swing.

When the magic spotlight advances.

Matthew took a special look and found that although the spotlights above the theater were made of tracks, they were not highly automated.

On each spotlight sat goblins with numb expressions.

They wore standard small vests, with steel wires hanging from their backs, and they moved through two densely packed beams at the top and bottom.

The magic spotlights were pushed away by them.

"Sure enough, even if it is a lack of productivity, as long as you put your mind to it, you can find a solution."

Matthew was surprised by the design of the theater.

But he thought about it.

If you let yourself do it and go up with another group of ghosts, you might be able to do a better job.

When distracted.

He took advantage of the opportunity to observe the expressions of the audience, and everyone, including Lorraine, took it very seriously.

Also.

The entertainment industry in this world is far less developed than Matthew's previous life.

An opera of this level is already the ultimate audio-visual feast for people.

Matthew is fine too.

After the initial novelty.

He can also patiently appreciate the hard-working performances of the actors, as well as the dances that are incomprehensible but still have a little charm.

On the stage.

The plot is proceeding in an orderly manner, and the plot of the second act is as follows:
What Prince of the Island doesn't know is.

As soon as I left the beautiful island, a terrible coup broke out on Pantura.

His second uncle colluded with the Naga and stabbed his father to death with a short dagger obtained from the Naga.

Afterwards, with the help of Naga, the second uncle changed into his father's appearance, successfully took the position of Chief Pantura, and occupied the mother who seemed to be unaware of it.

However, Duradin's second uncle had a completely different character from his father.

The latter is generous and merciful.

The former is cruel and vicious.

The tribe was quickly disturbed by him, and he even openly communicated with Naga, who was originally an old enemy, and the tribe dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

quickly.

Chaos appeared on the originally peaceful island.

At this time.

With the help of the wind of the island, the shaman living in seclusion on the high mountain of Pantura saw through the disguise of the second uncle Durin.

He asked the seagull for help overnight.

Call Durandin, who is traveling abroad, to return quickly.

The second act ends here.

……

"A classic revenge story."

Lorraine commented:
"It's not too vulgar, but it's not much better. It depends on how the third and fourth acts are handled."

As he spoke, he flipped through the program list he got when he entered the venue, and frowned:

"Why are there only four acts? It's too rushed!"

Seeing his serious face, Matthew smiled and asked:

"From a professional point of view, what do you think of the plot and lines in the first two acts?"

Lorraine shrugged, but instead of making a sharp comment, he said seriously:

"I can't analyze it from a professional perspective tonight. I just want to be an ordinary audience."

Matthew noticed something strange from his tone.

Before he could speak, Lorraine suddenly whispered:
"If, I mean if, if something weird happens tonight, no matter how weird he is, try to be a silent spectator, okay, Matthew?"

This was the first time Matthew heard tension from Lorraine's mouth.

But before that, he also had a premonition.

It's just a coincidence that I just bumped into Luolan just by stepping on a spot in Zeshui City, right?
Reminiscent of his strange abilities, there is only one answer, and Lorraine is waiting for him in "Jungle Dance" on purpose.

And a good show tonight may not be limited to the stage.

Matthew then stared at his side face:

"Rationally speaking, I should get out of here immediately, right?"

Lorraine smiled reluctantly.

that moment.

Matthew suddenly felt that he was so strange, as if he had become another person.

"We're friends, right?"

Matthew asked softly:

"Friends should mean trusting each other and not hurting each other."

Lorraine looked a little guilty.

He covered his face with his hands and said in a very low voice:

"I won't hurt you, Matthew, that's my promise."

Matthew nodded:

"Your words are enough, so what do I need to do?"

Lorraine lowered his hands in surprise:
"You really want to trust me?"

Matthew looked at him blankly:
"if not?"

A gleam of joy flashed in Lorraine's eyes, and he said in a deep voice:

"You just have to keep watching. Tonight, you just have to be a spectator, just like me."

Matthew nodded silently.

on the stage.

The third tomb is opened, and the plot continues to advance steadily:
……

After three full years.

The seagull finally found the prince Duradin who had learned a certain skill, and told him what happened on Pantura.

After learning that his father was killed and his mother was occupied.

Dudin was furious and wanted to go back to avenge his father.

However, his teacher Donald made an unkind request at this time——

He believes that Du Latin is now at a critical stage of learning art, and he cannot be distracted, let alone travel far.

If Duradin insisted on going back, he would be expelled from the school and forever miss his chance to become a great poet.

Facing the two difficult choices, Dudin finally chose to give up everything and go back to Pantura to do what he should do after a night of psychological entanglement.

The ending is naturally a happy one.

It turned out that Donald made this unreasonable request to test Duradin's will.

The latter made the right choice. As a teacher, he naturally gave money and equipment, and also let his other favorite student—a poetess who had a secret relationship with Du Latin in the past three years He and the prince set foot on the road home.

on the way.

They encountered a powerful Naga under the command of their second uncle, and finally, the man and woman were defeated and captured on the beach.

on the verge of death.

The male and female protagonists express their hearts to each other, and there is another lengthy song and dance drama. Seeing the little girl behind Matthew crying, I really worry that she will throw her nose on herself.

It's just that the two didn't die on the beach.

The Naga revealed his identity after defeating the hero and heroine.

It turned out that he was an old shaman in disguise.

The shaman told Du Latin that the second uncle who has been blessed by Naga is very powerful, if the prince can't even beat himself, then he is definitely not the second uncle's opponent.

And if you want to get rid of that despicable villain, you must go to a hidden island and seek the help of a wizard.

The sorcerer came from the Fangfang Peninsula, and he mastered the "Winning Spell" that even the Naga feared.

The so-called victory-hating technique is a curse spell that is widely spread in the eastern sea area.

In Zeshui City, the Aversion to Victory technique can be compared with the voodoo method in the western part of the rainforest, both of which are very terrifying methods of killing people.

Those who practiced the arts often died in bizarre ways.

However, the conditions for learning the technique of weariness are very harsh, and only those with extraordinary talents have the opportunity to learn this curse method from the wizards of the hidden island.

So a group of people embarked on the journey to the hidden island.

Along the way, they went through many difficulties and finally found the wizard.

After listening to the prince's story, the wizard expressed his willingness to teach the art of defeating victory.

But he also said that the way of cursing is not that simple. If you want to get something, you must pay something first.

If Duradin wants to avenge his father through the technique of embarrassment, then he may lose more.

However, how could Duradin, who was burning with anger, listen to it?

He begged the wizard to teach him how.

The wizard was moved by his sincerity, and finally chose to agree.

Thereafter.

The wizard kept the prince in his hut for three days, while the rest were driven out of the house.

three days later.

Dudin walked out with a pale face.

And the wizard has disappeared.

Duradin, who has learned the art of defeating the enemy, returned to the island of Pantura, where everything has changed, together with the heroine and the shaman.

The climax of the final act finally arrives.

……

Perhaps to make it easier for the audience to go to the toilet, the intermission between the third and fourth acts is longer.

On the way back, Matthew saw a hurried young man running into the dressing room, and there was a urging voice from the mean-looking middle-aged lady:

"Lawrence, do you want to be whipped again? Put on your double costume!"

"Yes, Mrs. Jess."

The optimistic voice of the young man came from the aisle of the dressing room.

Matthew shook his hands, and Lawrence's appearance appeared in his mind. The unique perception of the Balance Messenger told him that this young man was definitely not simple.

Get back to your seat.

The fourth act has begun.

The speed of the plot advances suddenly accelerated——

……

A group of people ran into the second uncle head-on, and Du Latine tried to expose the identity of the second uncle in front of everyone, but everyone on the island was already unfamiliar with Du Latine.

They didn't fully believe Duradin's words.

It wasn't until the old shaman stood up and stood with Duradin that some people were shaken.

But at this critical moment.

Du Latin's mother actually took the initiative to speak for her current husband!
She told Du Latin, don't listen to the old shaman's slander, his father was fine and was not killed by anyone, an accident did happen three years ago, but the person who died was his second uncle.

The mother's betrayal makes Du Latin heartbroken.

The second uncle saw the right time and ordered the chief's guards to arrest Duradin.

The two sides confronted for a while.

The old shaman is old, and both Duradin and the heroine are poets, so their combat power is naturally not enough.

soon.

They were caught and thrown into the prison on the island.

Du Latin met several tribal elders who were loyal to his father in prison. They were the few people on the island who were willing to believe Du Latin's words. Unfortunately, they were all prisoners like the prince, and they couldn't help Du Latin.

That night.

The second uncle's father came to visit the prison.

He told Duradin that if he stopped talking nonsense, he would restore his princely status and forget the past.

Du Ladin naturally did not believe it.

The other party can even kill his own brother, so what's the point of killing another nephew?

But in order to lower the second uncle's vigilance.

Durandin pretended to agree to him.

The latter left contentedly.

at night.

The hostess and Durand exchanged heartfelt complaints.

She asked Duradin why he didn't use the technique of disgust to win?

Durandin was just silent.

The hostess kept asking.

He had no choice but to reply that if one wanted to curse someone to death through the spell of disgust, he had to sacrifice another person's life, and that person had to be the most important person in the caster's heart.

Du Latin told the hostess that before today, the most important person in his heart was the mother in his memory, but after today, he became the hostess.

It was as if he couldn't bear to sacrifice his mother's life before.

Now he is not willing to sacrifice the life of the heroine.

After listening to Du Latin's painful self-report.

The hostess fell into a long silence.

before dawn.

The smart and quick-witted Dudin managed to bluff the guards of the prison with his second uncle's promise, and the hero and heroine were able to get together, and enjoyed a night of sex in the prison.

It's just that when Du Latin woke up, he found that the hostess had found a glass of poisoned wine from nowhere.

She quietly waited for Duradin to wake up, and drank it in front of him.

"Now I am a dying person, quickly use my life to curse that sinister and ugly uncle of yours!"

"Go and take back what is yours, my love, go, Duradin."

Then she fell down.

The grief-stricken Dudin hugged the heroine's body, and hastily resorted to the power-hating technique taught to him by the sorcerer.

This scene extremely tests the skills of the actors.

Matthew admitted.

Brandon handled the previous bridges well.

However, this performance was obviously stretched.

Even judging from the eyes of a layman, his crying scenes, performances and arias can only be regarded as barely passing.

He just wanted to pull Lorraine to make a sharp comment.

Right now.

The magic spotlight above the head suddenly dimmed!

It was dark on the stage.

There was a sudden commotion in the audience.

"Shh-!"

"Don't make a sound."

The voice of an optimistic and cheerful young man suddenly resounded in the audience:

"I know you haven't watched it, have you?"

"Duradin in this scene should be feeling grief, helplessness, accusation, fear, etc., but our hero, Mr. Brandon, played the prince like in a model play."

"He cries with heartache; he laughs with joy; he blames himself with vivid eyebrows; he is proud with flowers in the corners of his eyes."

"I admit that his acting skills have been perfected."

"But there is no emotion."

A magic spotlight suddenly lit up.

under the spotlight.

It's a young man dressed in exactly the same costume as the hero!

The crowd was in an uproar.

Even though he was well dressed, someone recognized his identity as the young man who was dragged to put out the fire at the door.

"Lawrence, what are you talking about?!!"

An angry voice came from the background, occasionally mixed with the sound of high-heeled shoes:
"You bastard with no father or mother, get out of here!"

The smile on Lawrence's face remained the same.

He looked at the mean-looking middle-aged lady who came from the backstage:
"Ms. Jess, a person who speaks so viciously like you must be full of poisonous insects, right?"

Mrs. Jess wanted to scold again.

But when she opened her mouth, a foreign object suddenly came out of her mouth.

"Wow!"

She bent down and vomited, and suddenly a scorpion, a poisonous snake and a toad appeared on the ground!
The actors on the stage were frightened silly by this sudden change.

They all hid behind the scenes.

"Wow!"

Mrs. Jess knelt on the ground in horror, clutching her throat, and the poison crawled out of her mouth continuously.

They didn't run around after landing, but burrowed back into her body.

quickly.

Her screams resounded across the stage!
"You're screaming too loud, Mrs. Jess."

Lawrence snapped his fingers.

Mrs. Jess' voice suddenly disappeared.

Followed by.

Lawrence raised his head happily, and looked at the audience who was also shocked:
"The episode will end soon and our show will continue."

"Next, I will be the male lead, and I will really present the climax of this good show to everyone."

"Thank you for your support. By the way, the Plague King sends his greetings to everyone."

talking.

He bowed deeply to the audience.
