Chapter 342 How can anyone act in a drama without wearing a helmet?
Golden River Township, near Moncruse Manor.
On the flat land of the wheat field, surrounded by countless golden wheat fields and rice fruit fields, a wooden platform over one meter high was erected.
After three days of heavy rain, with the arrival of the drama team, a rare sunny day finally arrived.
The hot wind was blowing, causing fine beads of sweat to flow from the foreheads of many villagers under the pergola.
But they didn't wipe it. Instead, they concentrated on looking at the stage for fear of missing anything.
On the stage, the bishop played by Grampwin stepped on the wooden frame of the fake monastery, holding a long sword and pointing at the unknown monk blocking the road.
The voice with fury and fear on his face was vividly expressed by Grampwin.
"Damn, why?"
The unknown monk raised the pitchfork in his hand: "Why? I am also thinking about this question, maybe it is just because they are too young, Maybe it’s because I’m old and can’t hear children crying.”
"Get out of the way!"
"Impossible."
"Then you will die!"
This plot is after the unknown monk let the orphans go. , blocking the mountain road alone to stop the bishop's pursuit.
After seeing this plot, Jourdan immediately whispered to the black hat soldiers around him who were maintaining order: "Get ready, it's time to start."
Although the performances of these actors were too vulgar and embarrassing for nobles who had appreciated high-level dramas.
But for these villagers who have never left the village in their lives, it is an unparalleled appeal, especially when they have been involved in the previous plot.
“Ah!”
The wooden long sword coated with silver paint hit the pitchfork. After several rounds of slow-motion clumsy fighting, the unknown monk was knocked down by the bishop. On the ground.
“Attention!” Jourdan immediately rushed towards the stage with the guarding war monks.
Sure enough, the moment the unknown monk fell to the ground, the villagers immediately became excited, and many people screamed in panic.
Seeing the sword thrust into the nameless monk's chest, the villagers stood up uncontrollably, roared, picked up stones, and threw them at the bishop.
In an instant, dozens of large and small rocks were thrown at the bishop on the stage, and several of them actually hit Grampwin.
Fortunately, Grampwin was well prepared. There was an iron plate in his bishop's hat, and there was even a set of thin iron armor under his loose robe.
After all, he had been beaten several times in a row. Two male actors had been beaten and injured before, so he naturally had to be fully armed.
"We're acting, don't smash them!"
"Get out of here if you disturb the order!"
The black hat army held up the shield captured from the knight, stopped the stones, and faced those The young villagers who threw stones yelled.
Hearing that they might be expelled, these villagers sat back quietly and looked nervously at the scene on the stage.
Perhaps the stones they threw had an effect. The moment the bishop swung his sword, he was pierced through the heart with a pitchfork by the unknown monk.
The two died together, and the orphans managed to escape.
Although they were saddened by the death of the unknown monk, the villagers in the pergola below the stage immediately cheered.
But at this time, the people behind the scenes knocked on the barrels and made a "tuk-tuk" sound of hooves, and the knight riding a pulley horse appeared.
As the rockery planks and forest on the stage background continued to recede, although the orphans played by the children's army were just stomping in place, the feeling of chasing was still performed.
As the farmers and women under the arbor screamed in distress, the orphans were caught one by one or hacked to death on the spot.
Every time an orphan is hacked to death, in the eyes of farmers and peasant women, it is like their lost child being hacked to death.
At the climactic moment, the orphans were almost killed, leaving only the poorest Tess kneeling on the ground, desperately praying for the coming of the Holy Father.
"Unclean, the Holy Father will never forgive you!" The actor playing the knight roared and rushed towards the little girl.
“Get away from her starting point!”
“Get away!”
Seven or eight farmers with red eyes rushed out of the arbor, followed by twenty or thirty other villagers who were a little slower.
They were so fast that they broke through the Black Hat Army's defense line, and an old farmer jumped onto the stage at a speed that no one expected.
The knight was so frightened that he immediately prepared to dismount and run away, but the old farmer was too fast. His eyes were so angry that they almost burst open, but tears flowed down from the corners of his eyes.
"I will never forgive you!"
He shouted and punched the knight actor on the nose. The poor actor's nose bone was broken and he screamed. He made a sound and almost fell off the fake horse.
The villagers below kept cheering, and behind the scenes, Grampvin, who had just taken off his hat and washed off the makeup on his face, and the actor who played the nameless monk had no choice but to return to the stage again.
They put on the clothes of fake monks and stepped forward to grab the old farmer's arm to prevent him from continuing to attack.
Seeing that the situation was out of control, the bard next to him came up with an idea and started to save the situation. He read the newly compiled narration aloud: "...Seeing that the knight was about to kill Tess, a passing villager couldn't bear it. Stop, stepped forward and gave the knight a heavy punch...
However, the knight was not easy to mess with. He immediately called two temple knights and held down the passing man. Brave villagers...
Is it possible that they are going to die here? Poor Tess, poor farmer...oh, look, what is that, the Salvation Army is coming! It's Joan of Arc here! ”
The people behind the scenes immediately simulated the sound of lightning with the friction of leather. The saint named Joan of Arc in the play finally arrived. After issuing a declaration of judgment, lightning fell and killed the knight. .
At the same time, two black hat soldiers climbed onto the stage and pretended to shoot at the two actors who stopped the old farmer.
“Bang bang! ”
With two knocks that simulated the firing of a clockwork gun, Grampwin fell to the ground heavily and crushed the red paint in his hand.
The villagers immediately cheered, and the old farmer was asked off the stage by the rest of the Salvation Army.
More than a dozen actors and behind-the-scenes staff all came on stage, bowed and saluted amidst the cheers of the villagers, and then exited in an orderly manner.
Next, the stage will be handed over to this fanatical-looking Holy Father priest, followed by several knights and stewards, one of whom is Decrama.
According to the process, watching the play, complaining, public trial, and sacrificing the knight's head to the queen is the final step-dividing the fields.
It must be said that this method of exaggerating the story in advance, then the monk revealing the truth, and finally taking advantage of the blood to kill people and divide the territory is quite effective.
Although some villagers would still regret it later, they were so outraged that they died in public trials, so they had no choice but to follow the Salvation Army all the way to the dark side.
Most of the villagers have woken up, especially some of the most bullied villagers, who fanatically pursue converts from the Salvation Army.
The Holy Trinity they refer to is no longer the Holy Father, the Holy Tree, and the Holy Lord, but the Holy Father, the Holy Sun, and the Holy Daughter. After all, they are related across generations.
In the big family of Mount Jile, the order of who the Holy Father likes is the order of their status in the world, isn't it?
In this way, the status of the Saint Sun is much higher than that of the Pope. It would be nice if they just chose to overthrow the Qianhe Valley Church instead of killing the Pope.
However, because the saint's final appearance was too explosive, the local people in Jinhe Township still worshiped Joan of Arc even more.
In the makeup removal tent backstage, Vtseva, who played Tess, changed out of her tattered clothes and put on her usual slim-fitting long trousers.
Unlike the aristocrats of this era who advocated loose clothing, under Horn's promotion, everyone in the Salvation Army generally preferred closer-fitting clothing because it was easier to move.
Vtseva was originally a member of the Boy Army, but her own personality did not fit Lubyanka's atmosphere.
So under Rene's arrangement, she changed her career to become an actress, and with an army of seven or eight children who were also not used to Lubyanka, she became an extra in the play "Blue Blood Orphanage".
Using the water in the basin to wash away the makeup on her face, Ftseva looked at the reflection in the water, which was a delicate and well-behaved face.
Few people will remain indifferent when seeing this sweet face suffering.
But at this moment, there was an imperceptible confusion on the face in the reflection.
Compared with Rene and the others who actually eliminated the enemies of the Papal State, can what he did really be considered a contribution to the Papal State?
Before she could think of a result, the delicate face in the reflection suddenly became serious.
Vtseva turned sideways, pulled out the dagger from the table, and shouted to the door: "Who is it?"
Although Vtseva changed her career from a child soldier to an actress, this could not hide her in the slightest. trained.
The door curtain was raised, and a wrinkled old farmer stood awkwardly at the door, holding his hat on his chest nervously: "Miss Tess, hello, I am Sauter, Gongbo Nongso "
Ftseva recognized him and relaxed a little: "Are you the one who rushed to the stage before?"
Old Nongsot lowered his head in shame: "I don't. I know, I didn’t react at the time..."
"It's okay. They are all used to being beaten wherever they go." Vtseva sat on the chair and looked at him with a smile, "Why did you come to me?"
At this time, Vtseva still holds the dagger in her hand.
The old farmer looked at Vtseva, with a look of memory and longing in his eyes: "Miss Tess, did any orphans really escape from the monastery?"
Vtseva was stunned. For a second, she looked at the longing and eager eyes of the old farmer Sote, and said with difficulty: "Based on our investigation, I have to tell you... there should be some."
"..." in After a full ten seconds of silence, Sauter put on his hat again and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you, Miss Tess."
Lowering his head, Sauter walked from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, then walked to the pergola where the crying was loud, and sat silently next to his sobbing wife Hickory.
"Saote, where have you been?"
"Hickory, I'm going to join the army."
"You? Going to join the army? You are almost forty "Yeah!" Hickory exclaimed.
Old Nong Sauter raised her head, but Hickory's words of persuasion were blocked in her mouth. She had never seen Sauter like this.
Twenty years after losing his only daughter, this old farmer who had been cowardly all his life looked like he wanted to eat someone.
“I already know the truth!”
