Chapter 147 Extra Small Theater Fifteen
Small Theater 1
Mr. Xianyun's official name was Liu Mengsheng. He was a scholar of noble birth and high caliber from Jiangnan.
He is optimistic and kind-hearted by nature. His greatest hobby is boating on the lake and watching egrets flying.
One day, after he had mastered some arts such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting, he took his boat out for a trip, but he still did not leave the house.
Suddenly, he heard a loud noise and realized that his boat had sunk. The weeds and flower pots around him seemed to be attacking him. He turned his head and saw a woman in black standing on the shore. The woman was wearing a black silk shirt, with an indifferent expression, looking at the water with a slight smile.
Although he was afraid, Liu Mengsheng still went up to ask, "Did you deliberately capsize my boat?"
The woman turned around and said in a mysterious tone, "I don't mean to hurt you. Now we can trust each other. You can come ashore and walk with me."
Liu Mengsheng was trembling, but he couldn't bear it, so he followed the woman ashore.
Her name is Heiyan, a ghost with a history of hundreds of years. She is a water monster in the Black Water River. For some reason, she broke the law of the river and wandered in the human world, hoping to find her home.
Heiyan is not an evil monster, but what the world calls a "god".
Liu Mengsheng's curiosity was aroused and he decided to stay and have a good chat.
Heiyan paused briefly, then continued, "The creatures in the river are greatly oppressed by the river god. They must help the river god build palaces and holy places. Even so, he still cannot complete the required amount. The creatures will slowly die every day. This will not last long."
After listening to her story, Liu Mengsheng comforted Heiyan, encouraging her to believe that there are still some kind people in this world. Under his guidance, Heiyan learned human etiquette and philosophy, and from this, she began to appreciate the beauty of the world. At the same time, under his gentle care, she also saw hope.
Time passed quickly, and Heiyan thought she had found her direction. She left Liu Mengsheng and returned to the river.
Liu Mengsheng was no longer confused from then on. He moved forward firmly because he believed that there would be more Heiyans in this world. He faced his own heart, firmly made his choice, and fought for his own life with both hands.

Small Theater II
In an ancient temple in Jiangnan, there lived a Taoist priest named Susan, who was a man of dignified appearance and extraordinary wisdom, but his spiritual life was extremely pale and empty.
Neither scriptures nor alchemy were what he pursued anymore.
It was one evening, he was walking slowly in the temple, listening to the ringing of bells in the distance.
He suddenly smelled a strange fragrance, and when he regained consciousness, he walked towards the source of the fragrance, and came to a desolate hill. He found that the fragrance came from a beautiful woman, half of whose face was beautiful, but the other half was covered with a deep scar, which made people tremble with fear.
Susan had many doubts in her heart, but the woman's words were like moistening things silently, and he was finally convinced by her and sat with her on a small hill.
Susan did gain some interesting things from her, including an understanding of life and a touch of true feeling. The woman called it "the connection between heaven and man."
However, when her scars were revealed, Susan was surprised to find that she was actually a chivalrous person who could only be obtained by someone who had betrayed her. He praised the woman's courage and believed that she had an unusual experience. He asked the woman to share this experience and clear her mind.
Then the woman briefly recounted her past, describing the desolate mountains. The many scenes and names she had described had almost faded from my mind, and even the sound of her voice and the atmosphere around her were no longer audible.
Susan suddenly felt a deep hesitation in her heart. She realized that this woman might really have existed, but her past could no longer be proven.
When he looked up and saw the woman disappear into the night, he even began to feel a little distant, and this connection was as elusive as catching a shadow.
Ultimately, Susan is still searching for knowledge about life force, but he knows that to accomplish this he must overcome a strong doubt. He begins to spend more time studying all elements of celestial communication and comes to terms with the pain of his past.
Thanks to Susan's efforts, he realized the true essence of the connection between heaven and man and became a Taoist priest with great inner strength. However, he always felt a sense of loss in his heart because he didn't know whether the woman with half a face had disappeared.
Fate is complex and he must live his life to the fullest, moving forward without looking back. He found that he had a sense of peace, because he had understood that true courage is not having answers, but the ability to face the truth of the world.

Small Theater 3
At the foot of a mountain in a remote village, there stood an ancient temple. Red lanterns hung above the temple's gate, wafting a faint fragrance into the air. A young couple sat in front of the temple, gazing at the bright moon in the night sky.
The boy is named Zhang Hao, with a handsome face and is very popular with women. The girl is named Lin Yao, who is full of youth and has a magnificent mountain atmosphere.
"Let's go and take a look at this temple." Zhang Hao stood up and walked towards the temple.
Lin Yao followed him, and together they entered the mysterious building. The temple was pitch black, filled with cobwebs and dust. They had only taken a few steps when they suddenly heard a faint groan.
"Did you hear that?" Lin Yao asked in a low voice, with a hint of fear in her eyes.
