Chapter 61 Demon Invasion
When I walked out of the backstage with the host, all the audience stood up and applauded warmly. The applause lasted for five minutes. The host said in an exaggerated tone: "Oh, oh, Zhen Tingqiang really brought us a visual feast. I dare not say that I will see more exciting programs in the future, but I promise that there was absolutely nothing before!" He smoked my cigarette and praised me with great effort.
Wang Yisan stood on the stage with expressionless expression, and the host asked him: "How do you feel now?"
Wang Yisan said calmly: "It's amazing, and I and many viewers can testify that I didn't hang Via."
The host smiled and stopped him and said, "No need to explain, we all know that magic is fake..."
Wang Yisan said seriously: "I really don't feel stubborn. I feel like I'm being lifted into the sky by a mysterious force."
The host interrupted him and said, "Next, please give the judges a comment."
The camera focused on Zong Beilu, but the old man seemed to be wandering. The performing artist next to him touched him and whispered: "Old Zong, you talk first."
"Oh..." Zong Beilu came to his senses and said to the microphone, "I have changed magic for a lifetime and never thought that magic could change like this. If I were asked to draw a conclusion for Zhen Tingqiang's performance, I think he must have cheated!"
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.
Zong Beilu immediately said: "But to put it bluntly, magic is an art of cheating. As long as you can't see how he cheated, he is a great magician! Player Zhen Tingqiang is such a magician!"
applause.
The performing artist smiled and said, "I still want to say your performance. At first I think there is a problem with your performance, but when I think back, this may also be your feature. We are also annoyed by the so-called magicians who keep it in a long time and can't get any real stuff. In this regard, you win and keep it up."
applause.
The third judge is a famous singer. His existence complained to the contestants from the perspective of an outsider watching the fun. He said sadly: "I don't want to say anything. After tonight, you will be more popular than me. I dare not offend you."
The audience laughed and applauded.
The host whispered to me: "We will not broadcast this episode half a month later. You can live a more than ten days of mortal life."
The head of the Chinese Acrobatics Group said: "I want to ask a question, have you rehearsed for the last program?"
Wang Yisan and I looked at each other and shook our heads together.
The leader said, "This is what touched me the most. When the opponent becomes friends, your cooperation is perfect. Our program is called "Miscellaneous Demons Platter". Today, your performance perfectly reflects the purpose of this program. Others praise Zhen Tingqiang. I want to say to Wang Yisan, I welcome you to our acrobatic troupe. At this year's World Acrobatics Competition, I hope you will participate in the competition on behalf of our China! Of course, the premise is if you are willing."
Wang Yisan was stunned, then burst into tears and said, "I do!"
The audience burst into endless applause, and Wang Yisan whispered to me: "Thank you, brother!"
The host shouted: "Okay, the competition part of tonight has ended here. Who is the champion? I think everyone has their own answers. Let's conduct the judges' scoring session. First, please ask the judges to rate contestants Wang Yisan!"
The scoreboard behind Wang Yisan kept jumping, and finally stopped at 98 points. The host was surprised and said: "It seems that Wang Yisan's strength should not be underestimated. The contestants should be careful."
When it was my turn to score, the judges gave me full marks tacitly and tacitly, and my final score was 100 points!
The audience stood up again and applauded warmly.
At this point, the host left the audience to take a few more shots, and the others could leave.
When we arrived in the backstage, all the players also congratulated me with applause. Wang Yisan, including Wang Yisan, encountered the strongest opponent in history today and received more attention than other eliminated players. This is the case with the competition. You don’t have to win. Sometimes it is better to fall in the right place and the right time than to fight for a bloody path.
I waved my hand and said, "Thank you guys!"
Everyone was packing things, but I had nothing. I said embarrassedly: "Then I'll leave."
The next game is a semi-final, and it will be tomorrow night. At that time, I will compete with the top five selected in the show, selecting two visitors and the top two of the other five to win the final championship.
I just left the backstage and hadn't arrived at the parking lot, a figure jumped out of the darkness and grabbed me and said, "Where are you going?"
I was shocked and found out that it was an old man by taking advantage of the lights in the parking lot. After closer inspection, it was the magic senior Zong Beilu.
I sighed and said, "I was scared, is it the chief executive?"
Zong Beilu said unhappily: "Didn't I ask you to wait for me after the show ends?"
"Uh... are you doing something?" I thought that was just a polite word. Who knows he took it seriously?
Zong Beilu pulled me under the lamp and said bluntly: "Which senior's disciple are you?"
I was stunned for a moment before I realized that he was asking who I learned the magic from. I stammered: "I don't have a master."
Zong Beilu couldn't believe it: "Self-taught and become a talent?"
"That's right."
Zong Beilu said decisively: "Impossible!" He looked at Lu Dongbin, and seemed to feel that he was not very much like a respected magic elder. He waved his hand and said, "If you don't want to say it, let's forget it. I'll ask you one more thing, what props did you use when you turned into a goldfish?"
"This..." I didn't use props at all.
Zong Beilu said: "I understand this is a taboo in the industry. I will never let you say it in vain. How about I exchange a magic trick for you? Have you seen the Great Change Guanyin before?"
I nodded: "It seems to have seen it." "The Great Change of Guanyin statue" is a famous magic that was once famous some time ago. It was performed by Liu Xiaoguang, the top domestic magic master. The specific content is to place a three-story statue in the vast land. The magician sat on the elevator and covered a huge red screen on Guanyin. After dozens of seconds, the red screen was opened. Guanyin statue disappeared. This is the largest outdoor magic in the history of Chinese magic so far, and it is also the only high-end magic that can be compared with David Copperfield in the United States. Liu Xiaoguang was just a first-class magician before, and since this magic, he established the position of the number one in China's magic.
Zong Beilu said: "I will exchange the 'Great Change Guanyin statue' with you. I invented that magic."
I realized after thinking about it for a moment: Liu Xiaoguang is Zong Beilu's personal disciple! I didn't expect that the old man could invent such high-tech things in his 80s.
Zong Beilu said with a frenzy of his eyes: "How about you, just tell me your secret method of turning into a goldfish, and I will teach you the trick of turning into a statue of Guanyin. You are still young and need such a large magic to establish your reputation for you. I am just purely curious. Don't worry, I will never pass on my disciples and let it rot in my stomach."
The old man said something so much that I felt very moved. This is the pursuit of the older generation of artists for their careers. For a magic trick, they would not hesitate to look for juniors and even give him a heavy gift. If I don’t tell him, he will probably not be able to sleep well in the future.
I scratched my head and said, "Actually, you don't take it too seriously, it's just a small trick."
Zong Beilu said: "It's not a photoelectric effect, right?"
"Eh?" Actually, I don't quite understand what the old man means.
"Are fish tanks and fish fake? They are all fired with laser lights?"
"Oh, it's fake." I hurriedly went down the ladder.
Zong Beilu sighed and said, "There has always been the saying that a vest turns into a goldfish in ancient magic. It means that a magician can wear a vest to turn into a goldfish in a porcelain pot. I thought this legend has factual basis. Now it seems that it can only be a legend, and in modern times, only the explanation of photoelectric effect can work." The old man looked a little disappointed.
I laughed and said, "That's not in line with scientific basis. Who can turn into goldfish in a vest?" I know a little bit about this magic. Almost all performers wear jackets, and it is indeed much more difficult to turn back than to turn into it. It is precisely because of this that it has become a traditional and classic project. The general explanation is that the magician hangs the fish tank on his thighs, and insiders sneer at it. In general, outsiders will never know the truth.
Zong Beilu shook his head and said, "Today, magic is inevitably related to high technology and light effects, which cannot be changed. You young people still have a long way to go - come, let me tell you about the 'Great Change of Guanyin statue'."
I quickly waved my hand and said, "You should keep this yourself. I will not be able to learn it, and I will be slaughtering good things."
Zong Beilu widened his eyes and said, "You really don't want to know?"
"I don't want to." What can I do when I know? I really do what I can do? I really want to respect Guanyin statue? I can't afford to waste this time.
Zong Beilu didn't expect me to refuse so directly, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Okay, you have the backbone, and you're terrifying!" He turned around, "Then I can't listen to your secrets in vain. I'll give you two suggestions - the big change goldfish is the most charming of traditional magic. It's not the best to change the effect like you. You have to work hard on performances, otherwise it's easy for people to see fakes. Moreover, the reason why classic magic has been performed for a long time is not because it's good-looking, but because there are many introductory audiences who want to see through your many performances, so you don't need to make new programs every time. Repeating appropriately will arouse people's interest."
I grabbed the old man's hand and said excitedly: "Listen to you is better than reading for ten years!" I was having a headache about preparing for a new program. The old man is making me lazy!
It was already midnight when we got home. As soon as we entered the door, Nezha asked, "How is it?"
The baby in the heavenly realm shouted: "You just wait for half a month to return to the heavenly realm!"
Nezha exclaimed: "That's great!"
Lu Dongbin said: "But we sent you up not to let you be beaten down again. You just happened to use this time to think about your strategy against the enemy."
Nezha nodded and said, "I already have a direction, but I don't know if it can work."
I was interested and said, "What are you going to do?"
Nezha said: "There are two concepts in physics, one is that the action of forces is mutual and the other is resonance. My idea is to use these two concepts to re-arm my Qiankun circle. Now I have calculated the density of the Qiankun circle based on weight and volume..."
I heard it as if I was so big that I kept waving my hands and said, "What the hell do you want to do?"
Nezha had fallen into a fanatical conception and continued: "Under the gravitational force of the Nine Heavens, with my mana power, use the speed and the characteristics of the Qiankun Circle itself, if the power is used properly, I can make it resonate in matter..."
I shouted, "Stop! You are the one who has the 38th place in the class. Are you talking about physics with me? Just tell me what effect you want to achieve in the end!"
Nezha said word by word: "In short, if my theory is true, my Qiankun circle can become countless Qiankun circles! At that time, thousands of Qiankun circles will be fought out, and no matter whether he is a god or a demon, he will have nowhere to hide!"
Lu Dongbin and I looked at each other and smiled foolishly, and then said together: "I don't understand!"
Nezha said excitedly: "It doesn't matter if I don't understand, I just need to understand!"
Lu Dongbin said: "I believe in him!"
I said, "Sleep!"
...
The next day at noon, I was searching on the computer to see if I could innovate several magic programs. Liu Laoliu called me and asked me to go to his place immediately.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"An urgent matter!" Liu Laoliu didn't say much, and then said, "Take my daughter too, I miss her."
When I brought Lu Dongbin and Liu Xiaoliu to the garbage courtyard, Liu Laoliu had already set up a cut watermelon in the courtyard, and placed an upside down trash can around the small table as a bench.
I walked into the courtyard first and pointed at Lu Dongbin behind me: "Brother Bin, you should know them all, right?"
Liu Laoliu said enthusiastically: "Xiao Lu is here too. Sit here, there is no need to be restrained."
"Haha, this environment is quite... special." Lu Dongbin sat down and greeted Lao Yan, and the two of them began to chew watermelon.
Liu Xiaoliu crawled into Liu Laoliu's arms and said coquettishly: "Dad."
Liu Laoliu looked away and said, "Yeah, it's much more beautiful than before, go eat melons quickly."
Liu Xiaoliu glared at his father and sat in a row with Lu Dongbin and Lao Yan to chew watermelons.
Liu Laoliu pulled me aside and said, "Xiaoqiang, something really happened this time!"
"Don't scare me, you didn't say this when the four kings and your daughter fell down."
Liu Laoliudao: "Compared with this, they are really nothing."
The baby in the heaven said, "What the hell is wrong?"
Liu Laoliu pointed at the sky and said, "It is true that people fell from heaven again, but this time it is not ours!"
The baby in the heavenly world said in surprise: "Has the people in the demon world taken action?"
Liu Laoliu nodded solemnly!
Chapter completed!
