Chapter 629: Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain
The plot continues to advance and the pace is fast.
A snake catcher caught a white snake and was about to take the snake's gall when he was stopped by a kind-hearted shepherd boy. The white snake took the opportunity to escape and expressed its gratitude to the shepherd boy after the snake catcher left.
In just a few minutes of plot, the background of this story is clearly introduced.
Then, the time went directly to one thousand seven hundred years later, and the White Snake turned into a human form, which was exactly the scene of the first promotional video of "The Legend of White Snake". Although netizens had watched this promotional video countless times, they still couldn't help but be attracted by the scene of the White Snake's transformation.
Those viewers who saw this clip for the first time were also amazed by the White Snake played by Riemann.
[Born to be an Entertainment Reporter: The design of spinning and transforming must be rated five stars! Seeing it makes me want to spin around too, I want to become prettier and more beautiful! ]
[Handsomeness has become a burden to me: the costumes and makeup are well received, the background music is also well received, and Riemann's acting is well received. For now, I will give these three stars. I will see whether I can get five stars after watching the plot later. 】
[Love Wanted: I want to see Fanfan! It's been five minutes since the show started, why hasn't Fanfan appeared yet? Bad review! ]
…
On the screen, after the White Snake transformed, it fell into the mortal world and met a group of people who went to worship Guanyin. Then it followed the people to Guanyin's temple to worship.
Originally, it was just a whim of the White Snake to pay homage, but unexpectedly, Guanyin appeared in mid-air and asked solemnly, "Who is kneeling?"
Mortals naturally cannot see Guanyin, but the White Snake is the only one who can witness the precious appearance of Guanyin.
The white snake in white was surprised and delighted, and replied: "I am Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, I pay my respects to the Bodhisattva."
"What do you wish for me?"
The white snake kowtowed: "Great Master Rong Bing."
Then, all the audience saw that the fairy-like white snake, for some reason, suddenly began to sing: "Bai Suzhen, under the Qingcheng Mountain, has been cultivating this body in the cave for thousands of years.
Ah~~~~Ah~~~~"
Yu Mengmeng: (⊙A⊙)?
Grandpa Yu: (O_O)? Everyone: (O_o)?? What the hell is this?
Why did you suddenly start singing?
Ah, but this song seems quite good.
But this is not important! What is Lin Fan doing? Singing when there is a disagreement? However, let White Snake sing. Why do these few lines seem to have expressed the reason why White Snake bowed to Guanyin? And, can it be done this way?
Yu Mengmeng was a little skeptical about her life. She turned to look at Grandpa Yu who was watching with great interest: "Grandpa, did you understand? White Snake, um, is she saying that she wants to get guidance from Guanyin?"
Grandpa Yu said as if it was a matter of course: "Yes, hasn't the White Snake already finished singing? By the way, he also explained his whole story, saying that he cultivated himself at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain and was able to transform into a human. He hoped to be saved by Guanyin, escape from the mortal world, and ascend to heaven in broad daylight."
The lyrics are much more popular than those in traditional dramas. How can you not understand them?
Grandpa Yu thought that his granddaughter was not that stupid, right? Yu Mengmeng wiped her face and said, "I understand the truth...but what do you want to do by singing after a disagreement?"
Grandpa Yu didn't understand it either, but it didn't matter, it didn't affect his watching the plot at all. Moreover, Grandpa Yu came from the era of traditional opera, so he was very receptive to this kind of performance and had no problem at all.
On the contrary, young people like Yu Mengmeng have a hard time accepting this model.
However, as Guanyin also started singing without saying anything, especially singing out those vague prophecies, Yu Mengmeng suddenly felt like her Ren and Du meridians were opened: "Oh! The feeling of singing this way is much more advanced than saying a few ambiguous lines in a mysterious way!"
Sure, sure, this looks pretty impressive!
Grandpa Yu took the opportunity to instill some private knowledge in his granddaughter: "That's right, traditional opera emphasizes singing, reciting, acting and fighting, and the lyrics and dialogue are very important!"
But Yu Mengmeng didn't hear a word and nodded perfunctorily: "Yeah, look, Grandpa, Guanyin asked the White Snake to repay her gratitude first. Only after she has finished her earthly ties can she become an immortal."
On the screen, the camera turns and the government treasury silver is mysteriously stolen at night, which angers the court and orders the Qiantang County Magistrate to arrest the criminal and recover the stolen treasury silver. Qiantang County Magistrate Yang orders his chief constable Li Gongfu to find out the truth within half a month, otherwise Li Gongfu will be held accountable.
"The king said: I am ill, I am lustful. He replied: In the past, the king was lustful and loved his concubine..."
As the camera turned, a scholar wearing a gray robe, with his hair neatly tied up, reciting a text seriously, naturally entered the audience's sight.
This is Lin Fan! Yu Mengmeng excitedly grabbed Grandpa Yu's arm and shook it: "Ahhh! Grandpa! Fanfan! It's Fanfan! Fanfan is so handsome, so handsome, so handsome!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Grandpa Yu couldn’t stand being shaken by Yu Mengmeng: “Okay, okay, handsome, handsome! Hey, stop shaking, my old bones can’t stand your torment!”
Upon hearing this, Yu Mengmeng quickly relaxed her grip and patted Grandpa Yu's arm gently: "I'm sorry, Grandpa. I was too excited when I saw Fanfan. Are you hurt, Grandpa?"
Grandpa Yu hummed a few times and stopped teasing his granddaughter on purpose.
Yu Mengmeng's eyes and attention were once again attracted by the plot of the TV series.
Xu Xian went to Qing Yu Tang as an apprentice, and Li Gongfu waited in the government storehouse. As expected, he saw the thief who stole the silver from the storehouse: a man in green clothes, with five strange-looking accomplices, broke into the storehouse at night and stole the silver.
After a chase and fight, the thief finally escaped because Li Gongfu was blocked by a giant green python. Li Gongfu was severely punished with twenty strokes of the cane by County Magistrate Yang.
At this time, the White Snake also came to the dilapidated house where Li Gongfu had chased the thief, wanting to stay there. Unexpectedly, she met the man in green who stole the silver from the treasury. The two of them scheduled three duels, and the man in green lost to the White Snake three times.
And this man in green, like the White Snake, is also a snake that has transformed into a human through spiritual practice. He calls himself Xiaoqing, and out of gratitude for the White Snake's willingness to not kill him, Xiaoqing vows to follow the White Snake from now on.
The camera turns again, and Xu Xian goes up the mountain to collect herbs, but he meets a strange monk who insists on making him a monk, but Xu Xian refuses.
Xu Xian himself didn’t know, but the audience had a God’s perspective and saw that this monk was clearly the snake catcher at the beginning of the TV series!
Oh wow, all of a sudden, the four main characters and the main supporting characters have all appeared, and the whole story line is clearly presented: the White Snake was instructed by Guanyin to enter the world to repay her gratitude, and Xu Xian was the shepherd boy who rescued the White Snake from the snake catcher, Fahai, who has now become a monk.
The Green Snake Xiaoqing had a fight with Xu Xian's brother-in-law Li Gongfu because she stole silver from the treasury. The story of the four main characters and two supporting characters became complicated because of the grudges that happened 1,700 years ago and the current theft of silver from the treasury.
It also makes the audience itchy and want to continue watching.
A new month, a new journey, let’s keep going~ (End of this chapter)
