After the whole sect traveled to ancient times, I led the rebellion

The way for ordinary people to obtain the full text for free is usually to listen to it from storytellers in restaurants or teahouses.

Those who attended the literacy classes would go to listen specifically, but some of them had to go to work or do farm work, and it was impossible for them to sit downstairs and listen every day.

Most people only heard it sporadically. They were willing to buy books for their children and send them to school, but they were reluctant to buy this storybook.

So by listening to a little bit here and a little bit there, we can piece together a story.

But what you hear and see in the books are different from what is performed in reality.

What you hear is not as exciting as what you see. That is why every year when the opera troupes come to the town to perform, they have to walk a long way to reach their destination, and even when they arrive, the place is always crowded.

It is because the story told in this way is more vivid to them.

The people of this era have not experienced the impact of information networks and lack imagination. Many of the scenes they imagine are far less exciting than what they actually see.

The people of Anping were sitting in their seats, and the curtain on the stands had not yet been opened.

Li Ping had never really performed in front of so many people. When she looked out through the curtain, she felt her heart beating faster.

Her rapid breathing revealed her nervousness at the moment.

Until the heavy curtain was pulled open by someone next to him.

The scene on the stage appeared before everyone's eyes.

Everyone was distracted by the scene before them, and the noisy and chaotic sounds suddenly stopped.

Only low exclamations remained.

There was a huge piece of cloth hanging behind the stage, with an image of waves and islands on it.

The scenery on this cloth was embroidered by female embroiderers using thick threads. The colors are colorful, and the scenery on the picture is so real and gorgeous that it immediately pulls people into the island.

The girls on the stage are another beautiful scenery.

She has a bright and beautiful appearance, and her clear eyes are looking straight at the fishing net in her hand.

The fisher girl caught everyone's attention as she appeared on the stage. Her patched clothes made her face look bright and lovely.

Everyone talked in low voices:

"This fisherwoman is so beautiful."

"Yes, so beautiful."

Amid the whispers, a voice was heard, and the narration was read out through the actor behind the scenes.

The voice came through a simple loudspeaker, and the people watching were startled and looked around in amazement:

“That’s a really loud sound.”

"What a loud voice, but no one is talking."

"Amazing."

The sound was amplified several times, and they could hear it clearly in the back row.

The loudspeaker was developed by the Mohist disciples. They had already built similar machines. After Mu Qing gave them an idea, they continued to think further.

This is how the loudspeaker that can amplify the sound came into being.

The sound from the loudspeaker was fairly clear.

It was the first time that the people of Anping heard the sound coming from the loudspeaker. It was novel and because they heard the sound in their ears, they were immediately drawn into the story.

Li Ping's body was still tense before she appeared on stage.

But once the performance started, she instantly got into the mood.

Li Ping put some makeup on her face.

The image of the fisherwoman described in the book is a stunningly beautiful woman.

In order to create the look of a fisherwoman, Mu Qing personally put on makeup for Li Ping. Mu Qing had seen a lot and knew how to put on makeup to highlight Li Ping's beauty.

She simply put on light makeup for Li Ping, which magnified her advantages while retaining her facial features.

At this moment, at a glance, Li Ping's facial features seem to have not changed at all, but they have become much more beautiful.

As a result, the people in the audience were too far away to see the Fisher Girl's appearance clearly, and they only felt that she seemed to have been born like that.

Obviously, judging by the audience's reaction, the Fisher Girl is beautiful.

Breathtakingly beautiful.

The scenes changed one after another, first the fisher girl appeared and then the fisher girl's father, a fisherman who was good at fishing.

Then there is the top scholar who has not yet passed the imperial examination, the fisherwoman's friend, the candidates who went to Beijing to take the imperial examination together, the emperor, the princess...

After Mu Qing's localized adaptation of "The Daughter of the Sea", the general outline of the story became starting from an island:

A fisher girl and her father, a fisherman, lived on an island surrounded by the sea. The girl's family was poor but she was kind-hearted and beautiful. Before she even came of age, countless men wanted to marry her.

On the day when the fisher girl finally came of age, she accidentally rescued a strange man on the beach. The number one scholar was planning to go to Beijing to take the imperial examination but his boat capsized and he was swept into the sea.

The fisherwoman rescued the number one scholar.

While the top scholar was recovering from his injury, he was attracted by the beautiful singing voice of the fisherwoman, and the two fell in love with each other.

After his injury healed, the top scholar promised that he would return to the island to marry the fisher girl after he passed the exam.

The fisher girl believed it, but waited two years and two years.

In the fifth year, when the fisher girl was twenty-one years old, she rejected the marriage proposal of the young man on the island and also rejected her father's urging to get married.

She was concerned about the number one scholar and her safety.

Finally, one day she decided to leave the island and head for the capital city by boat. The top scholar had never told her about his hometown.

The fisher girl could only go to the capital to look for him. However, during this voyage, the boat capsized just like five years ago. The fisher girl fell into the sea and her throat was cut by a sharp weapon. Due to untimely treatment, she lost her voice.

But she still overcame numerous difficulties and dangers and arrived in Beijing.

But as soon as he got to the street, he saw the top scholar talking and laughing with a pregnant woman next to him.

Helan learned from other people's words that her Helang had passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer. Faced with the choice between her and the princess, she chose the princess.

This choice, as long as anyone knows how to choose, is to choose the poor fisherman or choose

The fisher girl still had hope in her heart at this moment. She felt that the number one scholar had his own reasons for marrying the princess.

But the reality was not what she thought.

The top scholar did not recognize the fisherwoman.

The fisher girl returned to the island in despair until the number one scholar came to her again.

The two met again, and the top scholar gave all kinds of insincere reasons.

The fisher girl went from being full of hope at the beginning to becoming disillusioned. She did not accept the number one scholar's advice to marry her as a concubine.

The story in the book ends with the fisherwoman jumping into the sea in despair.

Mu Qing has adapted almost all of The Little Mermaid, and it's almost just a name.

The whole story is full of ups and downs, with climaxes one after another, making it a feast for the eyes.

This is the end of the book.

The purpose of opening Anping Grand Theater is to enrich the spiritual life of the people.

Taking into account the influence of the drama, Mu Qing made the ending more in line with the idea of ​​female independence.

There is a slight suspense at the end of the play.

This is equivalent to the second ending.

The fisherwoman did not die after jumping into the sea, but was rescued by her female friend.

It was only after experiencing death that the fisher girl realized that she should not live for men, but for herself.

Although she no longer has her beautiful voice, she still has all her limbs intact, and she discovered a delicious condiment, oyster sauce, with her own hands.

The fisher girl and her good friend went on a business trip together. The oyster sauce they made became famous all over the world and was even praised by the emperor. As a result, the two of them became female officials.

The ending of the play was changed from an incomplete artistic beauty to a perfect ending.

In the script of this drama, Mu Qing introduced the idea of ​​female independence.

Telling stories in the form of drama is still a unique thing in this era, and more and more people are coming to Anping.

Mu Qing smuggled something in at the end of the play.

Oyster sauce is a condiment that few people know about except in Shucheng and Anping.

We will use this drama as an opportunity to promote oyster sauce and increase its sales.

The people in the stands were initially attracted by the fisherwoman played by Li Ping. Later, when they saw that the island was icy cold in winter and the fisherwoman could only rely on thin bedding to keep warm, their hearts felt as if they were grabbed by two hands, feeling distressed and worried.

The people who come here to watch the drama are all looking for free gimmicks and to have fun in their boring lives.

They knew about opera, but opera was only performed on the second day of opening.

They came to the play with the intention of listening to a story, but they did not expect that the play, The Little Mermaid, would really immerse them in the story.

From the beautifully crafted scenes at the beginning to the clear sounds and the actors' superb acting skills.

They looked at the Fisher Girl as if they were living with her on the island.

When they saw the Fisherwoman and the Scholar expressing their love to each other, they blessed their beautiful love.

When the top student in high school became the top scorer, they cheered loudly;

When the fisher girl waited for her lover for a long time, they became anxious and wanted to step into the picture to find the number one scholar for the fisher girl.

Li Xiaohua's family had lived in Huang County before. When they heard there was opera to watch, they got up early and went to live with old man Li, whose family had moved to Anping.

Li Xiaohua brought the two children of Old Man Li and her own daughter Li Shengnan to the theater.

Old Man Li’s home is in Anping, so they arrived early and got a good seat.

Li Xiaohua looked at Li Ping on the stage. Although she cheered for their love at the beginning, it did not prevent her from hesitating when she, as an outsider, saw the top scholar facing the emperor's arranged marriage.

"I will marry Princess Yongning to you. Are you willing?"

The voice from that high position was resounding.

The top scholar was kneeling there, and no one could see his expression clearly.

Li Sheng is younger than the man. She is seven years old and has been studying in school for some time.

Although old man Li was stingy, he was willing to spend money to send his children to elementary school. Influenced by him, Li Xiaohua only gave birth to a girl and did not favor boys over girls.

Today, Anping’s institutions of higher learning are gradually developing.

Each county has different schools, and the learning in the schools is equivalent to primary education. Children have to study for three years and then graduate. They will take unified exams, and those who pass the exams can go to the county school to study.

The content learned in the county school is extensive and diverse, including junior high school knowledge and high school knowledge. After studying in the county school for three years, students will take a unified examination. Those who pass the examination can go to the highest institution of learning in Anping, the prefectural school, to study various professional knowledge.

Once you graduate from the provincial school, the government will generally arrange a corresponding job for you.

Those with good academic performance can skip these two three-year periods of study, and those who can pass the final examination of the county school can directly enter the provincial school.
