When Zhang Yu was sitting in his seat, with the sharp senses of the Seal of Divine Instinct, it was not difficult for him to feel that someone was looking at him with some kind of malice.
Because he did not keep his itinerary a secret, he judged that there was a high probability that this was the people from You City that Ning Ying had mentioned. These people were observing him and trying to find his weaknesses and loopholes.
However, these people did have some ability. He could not sense where they came from, they should be using some kind of magic tool to conceal themselves.
According to the established plan, these people would be handed over to the people of the Golden Eye Bureau to deal with, so he did not pay much attention to them.
At this time, the entire theater suddenly darkened.
He realized that the Sheng Opera had begun. Originally, he came here to relax, so he focused his attention on the front.
Although the usual darkness had no effect on him, he could adjust his senses to the level of an ordinary person at any time through the light of the heart. This way, he could better watch the play.
After a short silence, a little light began to appear in the darkness in front of him. Then, a bright starlight spilled out, like a flowing Milky Way.
At this time, a goddess dressed in ancient clothing walked out from the distant sky, walking over the Milky Way. She began to sing softly, her voice was ethereal and pleasant, as if it came from the Ninth Heaven.
At this time, there was music accompanying it. This music was the ancient music of Tianxia, and the instruments were a fusion of ancient and modern instruments. It was grand and majestic, but it did not lose its clear and melodious sound.
When the goddess walked over the Milky Way and revealed some kind of meaning, the main part of the play could be considered to have truly begun.
Zhang Yu sat upright in his seat, watching the play in a relaxed mood.
The Sheng Opera paid attention to artistic style and beauty, but it also had a more fascinating story.
The general story was about a person from Tianxia who, because of some unpredictable accident, wandered to the lower class and became a destitute foreigner.
And with his own wisdom, he began to make a name for himself by offering delicious food, and then he was recruited by the local officials. Finally, with his own knowledge and ability, he gradually gained the recognition of the country's monarch, and in 15 years, he became an important minister of the country.
This part of the plot was very tight. In just half a summer, the struggle of the protagonist in the past 15 years was vividly portrayed.
Moreover, the scene of the drama was reflected by the glass jade that enveloped the surroundings. It extended from the stage to the audience seats, giving the audience a sense of immersion. From the desert to the ocean, from the forest to the snowy mountains, the vast territory of the entire country was vividly displayed in front of the audience.
This kind of performance was especially immersive when it was used to display a magnificent scene.
The first time the battlefield was shown, the audience would feel as if they were in the midst of thousands of soldiers and horses. It was as if they had become one with the scenery and characters in the movie. This experience undoubtedly resonated with the audience's spirit.
However, just as the protagonist was about to reach the peak, the story took a turn. The entire country was now coveted by the Evil God.
The unstoppable Evil God's descendant led an army that resembled a tidal wave and easily destroyed the national army. The main character could only lead his trusted aides and small party to escort the young king who had just ascended to the throne far away. Looking at the capital that was engulfed in blazing flames, he swore that he would definitely fight back one day.
At this time, the jade pendant on his body glowed. It turned out that in the past 15 years, he had been trying to communicate with Tianxia, but there was no result. However, the arrival of the Evil God seemed to have awakened it.
At this point, the audience was eagerly waiting for the next part of the story. The light in front of them lit up, and the whole theater was restored to its original brightness. It turned out that half of the curtain had already fallen.
Seeing this, Zhang Yu also felt that this drama was quite interesting. Whether it was the quality of the actors or the construction of the scenes, they were all good, and there was a certain degree of artistry. If it was put on an ordinary person, it would be enough to be called a spiritual feast. No wonder it was so popular outside.
Moreover, he could see that the characters and the details of the story in the drama were very accurate. It should not be made up out of thin air. Many of them were adaptations of real things that happened in the lower levels.
It was worth noting that the whole drama, from the beginning to the end, stood on a more impartial standpoint. It did not deliberately belittle or elevate anything. Instead, it fully described and reflected the relatively real situation.
Of course, this was also because Tianxia, despite facing the suppression of many forces, was still the most powerful civilization in this era, or even many eras. Therefore, it was not worth it to make up anything for the enemy.
At this time, Qing Shu walked over and said, "Sir, do you want to eat?"
The drama would last for a day, leaving enough time for rest and food. There was a place for banquets in the theater, and the audience could eat in the hall.
The guests in the private seats did not have to do so. As long as they threw the food plates they chose into the basket, the exquisite delicacies would naturally be served. The guests would also take advantage of this time to visit and communicate with each other. This was one of the main reasons these people came to watch the drama.
As a cultivator, Zhang Yu did not need to eat daily, but he did not reject delicious food. Therefore, he also ordered a few light dishes.
Not long after, a voice sounded from outside the private seats, "Is Patrol Officer Zhang here?"
Zhang Yu said, "The imperial one is here. Sir, please come in to talk."
The person outside the door expressed his thanks, and then walked in from the corridor outside. This was a middle-aged man about forty years old. He wore a round-collared robe, with a short beard under his chin. He cupped his hands in greeting, saying, "Greetings Patrol Officer Zhang. This one's surname is Xi, given name Huang. I am the master of this courtyard. When I heard Patrol Officer was here, I specially came to pay my respects."
Zhang Yu also bowed from his seat, saying, "So it is the master of the Rest Courtyard. I have been disrespectful."
Xi Huang hurriedly bowed, repeatedly saying that he did not dare.
Zhang Yu chatted with him for a while. Seeing that this person was humorous and knowledgeable, and also had a good understanding of the situation of the outer regions, he invited him to sit down and have lunch together.
Xi Huang received this invitation and could not help but feel surprised, hurriedly agreeing. After all, not to mention his identity as Xuanting's Patrol Officer, Zhang Yu was also a cultivator who had some achievements. Normally, he could not curry favor with him even if he wanted to.
After Zhang Yu asked a few more questions, the dishes he ordered just now were brought in. At this time, he glanced down and noticed a handsome man with a different aura.
This person had a row of female guards sitting beside him. His appearance was not much different from the ordinary people of Tianxia, but he could still feel the obvious difference. His appearance should be a disguise, but this person could appear here so openly, obviously he had another background.
He said, "Who is that person?
Xi Huang took a look, smiled, and said, "Patrol Officer, that person cannot be called a 'person'. He is just a god's descendant of an EsGod. Previously, that EsGod had the intention to join our Tianxia, so he sent this god's descendant as an emissary here.
However, these EsGods sleep and wake up. After sending this god's descendant, he has been sleeping for more than fifty years and has not woken up yet. Therefore, this god's descendant did not receive a new oracle and could only stay here.
Patrol Officer, don't worry. In these fifty years, this person has been obediently staying here and has not gone to other regions.
Speaking of which, it is also interesting. This person loves our Tianxia's dance and music dramas very much. Every half a month, he would come to watch the dramas. He gave himself a name of 'Shen Muxian' and even wanted to invite our people to tailor a scene that was unique to them. "
At this moment, 'Shen Muxian' also seemed to feel that someone was looking at him. He raised his head and looked at a certain seat above. After thinking for a while, he said to the young translator beside him, "Mr. Bo, who is sitting there? I remember that is the seat of the head of the Housing Department. He doesn't seem to be here today. "
He had been in Kui Residence for fifty years and knew the language and writing of Tianxia. However, according to the rules, he had to bring a translator with him wherever he went and had to communicate with the outside world through the translator. He was not allowed to take the initiative to communicate with the people of Tianxia.
Furthermore, he had to pay a generous salary to the translator and the servant. Even so, not many students of Tianxia were willing to work for a god's descendant.
This student surnamed Bo was even arranged by the Military Affairs Department.
Although the student surnamed Bao looked down on this EsGod descendant, he still did his best since he was being paid. He ordered someone to bring over today's guest list. After looking at it, his eyes widened. He suppressed his excitement and said in a low voice, "Mister Shen, the person in the private room is our Tianxia's Xuan Court Patrol Officer."
"Oh?"
Shen Muxian also understood the etiquette of Tianxia. After hearing this, he was also filled with respect. He discussed with the old man beside him and asked eagerly, "Can I go and pay a visit to this Patrol Officer?"
Bo hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, I will go and ask on behalf of Mr. Shen. I can't guarantee anything."
"Wait a moment."
Shen Muxian also knew that it was not easy to pay a visit to a Xuanting envoy. He said to the person beside him, "Bring me the thing I brought."
This time, he came as an envoy and naturally brought many things as gifts. However, in front of the Xuanting Patrol Officer, he decided to take out the best of them.
Soon, a jade box in the style of Heavenly Summer was sent to a seat high above.
Zhang Yu and Shen Muxian didn't know each other, so he didn't plan to accept it. However, out of vigilance, he glanced at it and found that it was a broken stone slab. There were many blurry and strange characters carved on it. He couldn't help but change his mind and changed his mind.
He thought for a moment and said, "Let him come. I have some things to ask him."
He took the box and opened it with a flick of his sleeve. The stone slab was also revealed.
He stared at it. He had seen this kind of thing several times before. The first was the one left behind by his adoptive father. Moreover, a certain person had obtained power from it.
His adoptive father had left behind some clues, seemingly intending for him to search for these things. Later on, he had found several broken stone slabs at the headquarters of the Azure Sun Heaven Secrets Institute, Fang Yuzhong. However, Fang Yuzhong had lost some of his memories at the time, so he could not tell the exact origins of these things.
He did not expect to see something similar here today.
After receiving permission, Shen Muxian was pleasantly surprised. He tidied up his attire and went to Zhang Yu's seat. After entering, he bowed respectfully to Zhang Yu. It could be said that he had learned Tianxia's etiquette perfectly.
Zhang Yu nodded in return. Then, he pointed at the broken stone slab and said, "Mr. Shen, what is this? Where did you get it from? "
