Chapter Five Hundred and Ninety-Eighth I Worry About People
"My man, I'll pick up the lamb leg and bring it to you!" "......... Two more jars of wine on this table, pick up the expensive ones!"
"Look at the oriole below, oh, white... I almost flashed my dog's eyes."
The restaurant was filled with people, the guests shouted, and the guy carried the dishes everywhere with wooden plates. On the second floor, Lu Liangsheng heard Lu Pan and his master fighting with his master, but he didn't know that the Toad Taoist people drank it, and put the wine stains out with his other hand, and fell down the gap of the wooden board, causing a table below to cover his head and look everywhere, thinking that some water was leaking.
The pipa strings were plucked, the reed tubes roared for a long time, and the bold and enthusiastic Western vocal music fell. The Hu Ji on the stage was exposed with a long leg, and her hands were kissed to the applauding guests through the veil.
Lu Liangsheng held the fence and applauded the guests around him. When he turned around, he saw the tall and thin man with a change of monkey sitting on his shoulders with Zhu Gangli, smiling and said, "Is it a cup of grudges?"
"It's gone!"
The monkey pressed his elbows to the fence and responded happily. Zhu Gangli, who leaned against the other side of the scholar, just hummed twice, looking at Hu Ji who was about to step down below.
"Rouge vulgar powder! I don't care about watching it."
Lu Liangsheng couldn't answer this. After all, he was still watching it with relish... He took a breath and squeezed out a little laugh in embarrassment to deal with it. As for the grudges these two demons had at the beginning, they had no intention of asking about it. It was always bad if others asked too much about their private affairs.
‘Just stop causing trouble in the city.’
The scholar looked at Hu Ji who was leaving the stage below and thought, and Sun Wukong, who was standing beside him, seemed to see through the scholar's thoughts.
"Actually, I'm not a big holiday with this fool. I just fooled him when I was putting on the horse."
"Hmph!" On the other side, Zhu Gangli took a sip of wine and hummed the pig's voice: "You are fooling around, and I almost threw away my old pig's face. In front of my subordinates, I told me how to end the game? And... you made a big fuss back then..."
At this moment, there was a sudden sound among the guests watching the dance below, and then there was a noise. The old pig who was talking also stopped talking and looked at the curtain behind the stage below, and suddenly opened his eyes wide and pointed at the graceful figure at Lu Liangsheng.
"Look, that's not yours..."
Lu Liangsheng actually noticed it. When he saw the figure walking out of the curtain, he was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "It's really nonsense."
On the stage below, several musicians on the side of the stage held the pipa, reed tube, and Hu Zi were also stunned. A woman in a red-sleeved gauze dress took a lotus step and turned her face to smile at them with a pursed lips. A breeze blew out of her red lips, blew across the musician's face, surprised, her expression was calm, and she held the instrument.
The breeze blew by, blowing the candlelight, and the graceful figure walked onto the stage lightly. With a long sleeve, he turned to the guests with a short body and a gift. He lowered his pretty face, but he secretly turned to the scholar leaning against the fence on the second floor, blinked his eyes and showed his charm.
The monkey pushed Lu Liangsheng with his elbow: "I'm glaring at you."
Lu Liangsheng did not answer, smiled, looking at the woman dragging her long sleeves in the middle of the stage below, probably understanding why she suddenly came on stage. It was because he was so immersed in watching Hu Ji's dance just now that he had thought about it.
'However, Hong Lian's graceful figure is something that Wu Ji can't compare to.'
When he was thinking about it, the music on the side of the platform below suddenly rang, but this time it was not the Huyin of the Western Regions. The restaurant shopkeeper ran with his hat on his face and waved his hand to let the musician stop quickly. His restaurant specializes in performing Western Regions singing and dancing.
Hong Lian, who was dragging the floor with long sleeves on the stage, shook her hands gently, and the red sleeves flew into the air, and her lotus steps gently walked across the table, driving her slender waist, accompanied by oriental vocal music, with the unique beauty of oriental beauties.
"Don't jump..."
The running shopkeeper shouted that he wanted to climb onto the stage, but the seemingly exciting guests rushed up, pulled them down, and threw them aside.
"The guests are close to each other...the long sleeves are raised..."
The strings of the pipa are plucked and the jade beads are plucked, with a faint and ethereal voice humming, which is spread leisurely, Hong Lian slowly rotates, and soft fingers poking out her long sleeves to pinch out the orchids. The soft tone smooths the noise that is thrust off the platform.
"The people in the audience walked by, and the performances on the stage were hard to understand. The curtains opened and closed, the strings were resounding, and the joy and anger had nothing to do with me. Finally, the deep love and separation and reunion sang a song of intoxication..."
The noisy restaurant became quieter. Many guests held their glasses and forgot to talk and drink with their companions. Some of them were quietly leaning against the fence and listening to the quiet lyrics and music, as if the life of an actor slowly unfolded in front of everyone.
.........
"......I once saw a high-quality sound from the guests. I also saw a high-rise building on the water pavilion and a high platform. Later I saw a foot of red silk hanging in front of me. What is the clear sound of the red sleeves? It's me who buried the loess mound~~"
The pipa string sounds like a torrential rain pouring down, and the singing figure spread out in a flash, spreading out red sleeves, like blooming lotus buds, continuously flying up, and the black hairs are like waterfalls dancing and rotating wildly.
‘Controversy ~~’
The last string echoed, and the body of the wild dance became soft, the sound of the piano and the song were crisp and melodious, with a sad and beautiful artistic conception.
"...The rootless duckweed can't have grudges. Look at the scholar of the crescent moon, the words of love fall into the pen..."
The long sleeves floated slowly down, passing by the beautiful face with a glimpse of a stunning glimpse. The song and play ended. After the people retreated to the stage, the guests below came to their senses from the silence.
"Where is my mother, who is this woman? She sang so well."
"For the first time I saw this girl in this building, who doesn't know her? She must not be from this building."
“…”
Compared to the guests' uproar, Lu Liangsheng looked at the empty stage silently on the second floor. Only he knew what Hong Lian sang in this song, which was the sad life of an actor.
"Not bad." Zhu Gangli came to his senses and let out a long breath, but soon returned to his former expression: "It's a little worse than Yue'er."
The monkey nodded and echoed: "The widow you mentioned? It's indeed better to dance, but it's a little bit worse if you sing the song."
These words made the old pig stare at the big copper bell, and a monkey and a pig looked at him so glaring through the scholar.
"Young Master!"
A gentle voice sounded behind the back. When the two demons looking at each other snorted and turned their heads away, Lu Liangsheng turned around and a pretty shadow with a slight sandalwood pounced into his arms.
Red lips leaned into the scholar's ear and whispered: "Young Master, is this song Honglian singing okay?"
"Better than I've seen."
As soon as Lu Liangsheng said this, Zhu Gangliu's eyes were glaring. The scholar smiled and pulled the woman off his body. "There are many people here..." Before he finished speaking, he noticed that all the eyes were looking up and downstairs.
Well......
Now I can't continue drinking. Fortunately, Lu Pan and the eight people there were almost the same, and Toad Taoist. Lu Liangsheng paid the money for the wine and asked them to go out of the restaurant and return to Wanshou Temple.
Step by step ~~
It was already dark and the long street was much colder. As soon as the restaurant came out, the group heard the sound of horse hooves spreading from the imperial city at the end of the long street.
"drive!"
The cavalry team holding a torch hurriedly and ran away. When they saw more than ten people suddenly coming out of the front, they shouted: "Get out of the way, the imperial city's ban on cavalry has official duties, give up a way!"
In the crowd, Lu Liangsheng turned around, and the knight in the lead looked at it, opened his eyes wide, and hurriedly tightened the reins, raised his hand and gestured backwards, and shouted loudly.
"Stop!"
The galloping horse slowly took several feet before barely stopping. The knight let out a strange soldier in his hand to his subordinates, turned over and dismounted, strode forward with a sword around his waist, arched his hands, and knelt down half his knees.
