Chapter 93: Competition (3)
Although Changfeng didn't know much about peonies, the ones he had lived with Duan Caiyan for two days, except for Duan Caiyan, and peony flowers. He still recognized many precious peonies, such as black gold shining, red clouds and shiny lights, blue fields jade, red dragons shining, diamond flowers and dews, were not as good as Duan Caiyan's bloody peony. Changfeng looked at them just to be pleasing to the eye. He couldn't tell him the difference, and no one was perfect!
In this regard, Nongyuedao and Duan Caiyan have a common language. The two little women chirped in the wind and pointed at the peonies on the stage and talked constantly, without any barriers.
Changfeng, sandwiched in the middle, is the most uncomfortable. I don’t know how many eyes I want to kill myself. Some old people are still sighing. The world is getting worse and the people’s hearts are not as good as ever. This kind of thing can be done in public, completely delegating Changfeng to those who are both men and women.
This stage of flower comparison can be concluded soon. After extremely judged consultations, the Red Dragon Glory of Xinlafang won the first place, the Red Glow of Qunfang Garden won the second place, and the Yulou Diancui in Lianyue Tower was only the third place. The courtesan tonight was born in these three places without any surprises. One of the three girls, Xiao Xiao, Bian Yuqiong and Nongying, is the courtesan of this year. However, this is just the beginning, but the quality of flowers and the quality of people is the most critical. The fourth-ranked Linghua Zhanlu and Yulou Diancui were only a little different. Until the end, no one would admit defeat.
Next was the talent performance of the girls participating in the competition. First, eighteen people appeared together, and eighteen beauties, standing on the stage, there were screams of screams from the audience, and some saliva flowed down, especially in late spring, the temperature was rising, and all the beauties were dressed more exposed, and the graceful lines were fully displayed in front of everyone. People who could see clearly close to each other, especially the young man with strong energy, were no longer a few of them bleeding from noses, so Changfeng saw at a glance that many people were covering their noses, wanting to look up but not daring to look, and their expressions were very funny.
Nong Yue pointed at Changfeng quietly leaning against Changfeng in his ear to introduce the beauty on the stage to him. She was much more detailed than that Tong Xuanxuan. Even Nong Yue knew everything she liked and used to. Maybe she knew so much that she wanted to make a comeback.
Changfeng just took a closer look at a few people who had the chance to win the championship, but he didn't look at the rest.
The first in Changfeng's mind is Miss Xiao Xiao from Xinlafang. This woman is a skinny beauty, a bit cold and arrogant, and she is not sociable. I'm afraid she is not her beautiful appearance. It is difficult for such a woman to stay in a brothel.
The second person is not Bian Yuqiong from Qunfang Garden, but Bai Mudan from Mudan Garden. This girl has a noble temperament, unlike her birth in a brothel. From what Nongyue learned, Bai Mudan came to Dianjing for less than half a year, and no one knew where she came from. She was also a girl with mystery.
The third place is not the Nongying in Lianyuelou, but Shufangzhai’s Butterfly Wu. Shufangzhai’s Linghua Zhan ranked fourth. Butterfly Wu is like a innocent girl with her eyes full of spiritual energy. She is like a beautiful elf. As for Nongying in Lianyuelou, her appearance is also a bit better than Nongyue. She has a sense of arrogance on her face. Unlike Xiao Xiao’s coldness, Xiao Xiao looks like a person who thinks she should be like that, while Nongying looks annoying. However, with literary talent behind her support, the result is unpredictable. The rest of Changfeng didn’t look closely, and there was no time to look closely. Everyone was already stepping down and ready to go.
The Wulin was a little disappointed. Ting Hexuan, who supported the Wu family, only won the eighth place. There was no hope of winning the courtesan. It seemed that the Wu family and the Wen family were once again at a disadvantage in this confrontation.
Talent performances are drawn to determine the order of going to the stage by drawing lots. It is extremely unfavorable to draw them from the front and the back. I don’t have the luck to draw them.
Each person has three projects. The first is singing, which can be written by himself or written by others. The second is musical instruments. This is up to everyone's preferences and the third is dancing, which also follows everyone's preferences. In short, it is quite free. Everyone can show their best performances. As for which performance is up to them.
After a quarrel, the lottery was finally finished. Everyone was looking forward to the most exciting performance. These performances are not something that ordinary people can see, so 30% of the people came here after hearing the news. That special passage also made the crowd overwhelmed.
Changfeng looked at the eager gaze inside and outside the court, and was a little envious of his ability to have this opportunity to watch the game up close.
Dingdong... A guzheng with flowing mountains and flowing water sounded, and Changfeng didn't see clearly how the first one appeared. Changfeng's attainment in musical instruments is no worse than anyone else. Although this guzheng with flowing water is the simplest song, it is also the most difficult to play the best song. The purpose of this woman choosing this song is naturally to win judgment and the audience's appreciation with her superb skills.
This woman's technique is good, but she failed to fully exert the artistic conception of this song, which can only be considered to be a middle-level and upper-level level. However, it is already rare and valuable. Many piano players may not be able to reach this level in their entire lives. Changfeng commented in his heart while appreciating it.
Nong Yue and Duan Caiyan are also professionals, and both of them have reached an extremely high level, and their judgments are basically consistent with Changfeng.
Soon the song ended, and thunderous applause burst out from the audience. The first one, I always have to encourage it. Changfeng also applauded with everyone. As for Nongyue, it was just like Changfeng's actions. Changfeng applauded, and she also applauded. Duan Caiyan hesitated for a moment and then applauded.
The next woman sang an ancient song, the peacock flew southeast, but the lyrics were reproduced by herself, and she sang it herself, and her voice was round. However, the scales in some places were not very natural, and in general, they were pretty good. In the ears of ordinary audiences, it was already very good.
Next is dance. There are two dance schools circulating on the mainland, one is court dance and the other is Mingjian dance school. These two schools are divided into countless sects. Each ethnic group has its own unique dance, and each country's court also has its own dance, so everyone can basically find their best dance to learn. This girl dances a kind of Mingjian dance, which seems to be mixed with the creations of the people. Speaking of dance, Changfeng is not so proficient in it. There are very few dances suitable for men on the mainland. In addition to the army, there may be a kind of kung fu dance, which was also developed from martial arts, so he can only watch it and cannot make evaluations.
The two little women had another sentence in front of them, and they talked about it without a word, and they were naturally talking about the dancers on the stage.
Soon a few people passed by, and there was some surprise, but it was not too strong. It was the seed beauty who could win the championship in Changfeng's heart. The first one to appear was Shufangzhai's Butterfly Girl. Her appearance was like a beautiful butterfly, but she danced, which attracted everyone's hearts. The graceful dance posture was indeed unparalleled in the world. Even Nongyue's face was full of praise, but Duan Caiyan looked calm. I wonder what she was thinking?
Butterfly dance accidentally brought a small climax to the Courtesan Competition, with cheers one after another, but Butterfly dance won the reputation of Butterfly Fairy, but the songs and instruments below were mediocre, and although it was wonderful, it was far less than the sensation of her dance.
The one who appeared below was Nongying from Lianyuelou. Both she and Nongyue came from Lianyuelou. Nongyue was also concerned about her performance. Of course, Nongyue would not cheer for someone who persecuted her own people. Instead, she hoped that she would mess up her talent show, so she stared at Nongying on the stage without staring.
Nongying could stand out in Lianyue Tower and get the support of Mr. Wen San, so naturally she had two brushes. When she saw the little golden bells hanging all over her body appearing on the stage, the audience was stunned by her bold behavior, and she screamed loudly, and Changfeng sighed in his heart. It was indeed unexpected. Nongyue's face turned red, and she hid in Changfeng's arms and didn't dare to look at him anymore. Duan Caiyan also blushed. She had never seen such a bold woman and wanted to get into Changfeng's arms, but there was already a head there, so she had to lower her head and not go to the stands for Nongying's seductive body.
The Wulin Master on the judging table was so shocked that he had all the pens in his hand fell off. The eunuch of Sili, Eunuch Liu, was a eunuch. He didn't react much, but the corners of his mouth disappeared. Wencai already knew that he was not surprised. Murong Qiushui's eyes were about to fall off. Li Yanyan was a woman. Although she was surprised by the way of making a movie, she also admired the courage of this woman.
As the drums rang out, Nongying made some bold and seductive actions on the stage. This was an unprecedented teasing action, which made the men below the stage rush and their blood rush, and some people's eyes were already red. They stared at Nongying on the stage and wanted to swallow her in one bite.
The witch, this is a typical witch. Some corrupt scholars in the audience couldn't stand it anymore and stood up and cursed. Unfortunately, their strength and voice were too weak. If the judges gave them low points, most of the men in the audience would not agree. After all, the public is in trouble.
The dance of Nongying got the highest score in history, which naturally surpassed the butterfly dance of Butterfly dance. Another climax appeared. When the song went down and the song was halfway through, everyone gradually cooled down from their previous passion.
Changfeng was also sweating with cold hands. It was indeed amazing. No wonder Nongyue could not beat this woman. Due to the rising water and the bow of the boat, Nongying's total score now reached the highest. If the people behind did not have any outstanding performances, she would be the courtesan tonight, which made the madam Lianyuelou who was watching Nongying's performance on the Taiwan side laugh.
Below is the appearance of Bai Mudan, who Changfeng thinks is the most elegant. Her noble temperament has indeed convinced many people, including several judges. However, her talent is not embroidery in her talent performance. However, Bai Mudan is unique and integrates the embroidery movements into the dance. She embroidered a white mudan to all the audience on the spot, winning everyone's loud cheers. Bai Mudan's voice was feminine and hoarse. Therefore, she chose a folk song from the frontier to conquer many men from the north, which also increased everyone's respect for her. Her instrument also chose a huqin called the pulp strings, and there was a strong sound of killing, as if thousands of troops were fighting in front of you, especially Changfeng, who really went to the battlefield, which was more realistic. If it were not for the crowds, Changfeng would not be able to help but whistle to the sky and express the dullness in her body.
Bai Mudan seemed to be indifferent to her achievements and walked down calmly.
A few people were separated by the middle. Bian Yuqiong from Qunfangyuan, which was a strange girl. Her singing voice was already famous in Dianjing. When she came up, she showed her instrument, an instrument that was difficult to control: Wu, especially for women to play this kind of instrument, because the people who play this kind of instrument must have enough energy. Therefore, Changfeng concluded that Bian Yuqiong must have practiced internal skills and had achieved some success, otherwise it would be difficult for her to finish a piece of music.
There were people looking at Changfeng in the field. Of course, Muguan would not stay on Changfeng, most of them stayed on Nongyue. Seeing such a beautiful woman so obediently nestled in Changfeng's arms, I felt a little unwilling to accept it. But when I thought of the fate of Guli, I had to take back my heart that was ready to move. Is there so many experts to protect me?
How could Changfeng not know how many people wanted to mess with Yue? But he disdained to pay attention to those people. With Guo Huai, only if there is someone with the strength of the Ghost Face True Lord comes, there will be this opportunity.
Bian Yuqiong's singing voice brought everyone to a huge climax. Some people exaggerated and shouted Bian Yuqiong's name loudly. This was the one that made everyone's mood the most after the movie. Unfortunately, her final score was still after the movie. It seems that the movie had already seen hope of winning the championship.
The last one to appear was Xiao Xiao, the woman Changfeng thought she could win the championship the most. I don’t know how she performed. Whether Nongying can successfully ascend to the throne of the courtesan is up to the last person.
Everyone's emotions were mobilized. Those corrupt scholars who did not want to be a courtesan who was unfamiliar with the indifference were now calling the most fiercely, hoping to go on stage to help Xiao Xiao win the courtesan, and the competition reached its climax.
Xiao Xiao appeared in front of everyone in a strong outfit. She performed sword dance. Changfeng suddenly became interested. The martial arts people in the audience widened their eyes and saw what exquisite sword skills could a brothel singing girl have. Only one of the five judges did not know martial arts. It was not that he had no choice but to learn it, but that he did not practice it. The other four were all good martial arts, so they naturally had great expectations for the sword dance that appeared in the end, hoping that she would do something amazing.
Xiao Xiao turned over in the air, which was obviously a clever light skill. Everyone in the audience said "ah". Xiao Xiao turned out to be a martial arts master, not as simple as a brothel singing girl, but why did she reveal her martial arts skills today? For a little courtesan, she should be the case!
Xiao Xiao's sword dance was dazzling in the eyes of ordinary people, and in the eyes of martial arts people, it was an extremely clever sword technique. Everyone was thinking about how to disassemble such sword technique. Changfeng was also in deep thought. There were a few moves in Xiao Xiao's sword technique that seemed familiar, but they didn't look like it. I don't know why, but it seemed that her sword technique was not very skilled, and she didn't know if she had practiced internal skills. After observing Xiao Xiao's footwork, he was even more surprised. He would be able to do this step, and it was much more proficient than her. Xiao Xiao's identity was suspicious. As far as he knew, only his master Yun Zhongke in the world knew this step, and his master had been dead for four years, so how could he run to Dian Kingdom to teach Xiao Xiao's footwork and sword technique? This question stumped him all at once. Could it be that the master was not dead? This is impossible. He was by his side when his master died, and he buried it with his own hands.
It seems that I have to stay and figure this out, otherwise I will be unable to sleep or eat.
Xiao Xiao's sword dance reached its climax, and a ball of sword light rolled on the stage, which was extremely beautiful.
After the dance ended, the applause burst out in the crowd for a long time. It was the momentum of the storm. Nongyue found that Changfeng beside her had no response, and did not applaud or speak, and gently reiterated: "Young Master, what's wrong with you?"
Changfeng woke up and said, "It's nothing, I'm just a little surprised. It's really amazing that such a beautiful woman has such a beautiful swordsmanship."
It was nothing to get the moon, but Duan Caiyan felt that Changfeng was a little insincere and did not ask questions in her doubts.
There is no suspense about what happened next. Miss Xiao Xiao won the courtesan this year with an advantage of less than half a point.
Wencai secretly hated that Nongying's little hoof was going to be yellow again. For some reason, she had agreed to Li Yanyan without helping him in the end. She had a scheming in her heart and planned to teach Li Yanyan a lesson. It would be even better if she and Nalan Piaoxue both suffered losses. She had a vicious plan in her heart.
At the end of the song, Xiao Xiao took the courtesan and was surrounded by people from the Cinnamon. He probably wanted to go back to set up a celebration bar. Others walked away and scattered. There was only the person behind the scenes left by the huge Weiming Lake, dismantling props and supplies, cleaning the stage, and removing tables and chairs. Someone had to do these.
Duan Caiyan did not follow Changfeng, but followed the eunuch of Sili, Eunuch Liu. Nothing unusual was found in the crowd. It seemed that tonight's courtesan competition was quite successful, except for the last courtesan candidate.
Chapter completed!
