Chapter 1181 Sachet
Behind the white curtain, a figure began to appear, but the strange thing was that, apart from the intermingling sound of musical instruments, there was only the creaking sound of feet on the wooden boards on the stage, and there was no human voice.
It gives people the feeling that the ghost show is still brewing and has not yet started, as if...waiting.
Soon Jiangcheng knew what he was waiting for. A series of scorched figures walked towards Jiangcheng with stiff steps, found their own seats, and sat down.
During this process, Jiang Cheng's body tensed up, and he could clearly feel a few malicious eyes wandering behind him, wishing to swallow him alive.
As the last figure was seated, the white linen curtain slowly opened, and the next second, a dull gong sounded, and the ghost show officially began!
All the flickering lights above the head were extinguished, but they were replaced by many candles.
white candles.
There were probably dozens of them, all of which were ignited at the same time, emitting a terrifying light.
With this light, Jiang Cheng noticed that among the audience seats tonight, he was the only one leaving a shadow on the ground.
It really was a ghost show, and he was the only living person in the audience.
On the rough and simple stage, several people in costumes set up their poses, stepped on the short and rapid drum beats, and babbled and sang.
Jiang Cheng didn't listen to plays very much, and didn't know much, but even so, he could tell that the play was not quite right, the rhythm was wrong, and the actors' appearances were also very problematic.
No matter what kind of makeup the actor wears, there is a miserable green on his face.
At first, Jiang Cheng subconsciously thought that these actors were also ghosts, but soon, he realized that things were not that simple. Although the actors' eyes were dull, Jiang Cheng could still see the fear in the actors' hearts through their eyes.
And no matter what actions the actors make, they don't stand in the audience. The swords used for fighting are also very careful when wielding them, even cramped. The tip of the blade never points at the audience.
Most importantly, he discovered that these actors also have shadows.
It seemed right, these actors were also human beings, and there was a high probability that they were the unlucky troupe mentioned in the newspaper, the one who was tricked into acting in a ghost show.
No wonder the records in the newspaper ended here. It turns out that what will happen in the second half depends entirely on his performance tonight.
As the ghost show progressed, Jiang Cheng gradually calmed down. He knew that he would definitely not let him pass the night safely, and there would definitely be accidents during the singing process.
Suddenly caught something out of the corner of the eye, and turned his head to look, the curtain on the far right was lifted, and a woman in white plain clothes walked out, her eyes were covered with a white cloth, and she was holding a gong in her hand.
It could be seen that the woman was terrified, she bit her lip, her body trembling uncontrollably.
And the one who helped her lift the curtain was an old man with a slightly stooped body. The old man was dressed like a woman, all in white clothes, and his eyes were covered with white cloth strips.
Jiang Cheng understood that the old man would most likely be the head of the theater troupe, and the woman who came out this time was not very old, only about 15 or 6, with a good figure and a charming appearance.
This is an old rule in theatrical troupes. Whenever important guests come to the theater, shortly after the opening of the play, the theatrical troupe will mainly pick up the curtain for the most outstanding female role in the troupe, and let the female role go out to thank the benefactors who came to support. Good luck , but also get a large reward.
But this is a ghost show, asking for money from the ghost, which Jiangcheng didn't expect.
The girl lowered her head slightly, bit her lips lightly, and walked slowly forward along the first row of seats. Her shoulders shook violently, and she looked very pitiful.
Her lips trembled a few times from time to time. When she listened carefully, she could hear the girl talking, but her voice was very low, and there was even a hint of trill, "Thank you, Duo Meng is here..."
Repeatedly, it was just some polite words. After the girl approached, the gong in the girl's hand caught Jiang Cheng's attention. There were a few sachets scattered around the edge of the gong.
This is also one of the troupe's means of attracting customers. After the benefactor throws the reward into the gong, he can take away a sachet, and most of the sachets are embroidered with the imprint of the girl's surname or stage name.
The girl moved very slowly. When she passed the first few charred corpses, she was safe and sound. When she passed the one next to Jiang Cheng, something happened. The originally dead charred corpse suddenly stretched out her hand to grab the girl's arm.
But the girl seemed to have sensed something, twisted her waist, and Jiao Shi's hand was unbiased, just touching the sachet, and the next second, as if getting an electric shock, she immediately withdrew her hand and stopped moving.
The sachet that was touched also changed, burning up, and turning into ashes after a while.
At this moment, Jiang Cheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately realized that these sachets are good things. These scorched ghouls are afraid of sachets. To be precise, the sachets can withstand a ghost's attack.
"Thank you, Duomon... Duomen's coming..." The girl was obviously frightened, and her voice had a hint of crying.
Seeing the girl walking in front of him, Jiang Cheng really wanted to reach for the sachet, but at this moment, he thought that he should be treated similarly to the scorched ghoul, and if he rashly took the sachet, he would be attacked.
The reason was that he didn't follow the rules and gave a reward to the troupe. Only after giving the reward to the girl could he take the sachet as promised. Jiang Cheng thought this method was very feasible, mainly because he had no other options.
But at this moment, I am penniless, what can I use to reward the girl?
Although he has a mobile phone, he doesn't want to give it away. After all, the mobile phone is still useful, who knows how long he will stay in this ghostly place, maybe he can use the mobile phone to contact the fat man.
Time waits for no one, Jiang Cheng made up his mind, tore off a button on his clothes, and threw it into the gong. After a slight crisp sound, the girl froze for a moment, and then quickly bowed to Jiang Cheng, "Thank you... Thank you Guest reward."
Jiang Cheng reached out to grab the girl's sachet.
Sure enough, it worked.
But how could one sachet be enough? Jiang Cheng, who had benefited, stared at the remaining sachets, with naked longing in his eyes.
"Thank you for the guest reward."
"Thank you for the guest reward."
"Thank you... Thank you for your reward."
"You, Enke..."
"You gave too much, thank you..."
Jiang Cheng tore off all the buttons on his clothes, and replaced three sachets in a row, until the fourth one, Jiang Cheng stopped, not because he had no buttons, but he still had them in his hand, but at this moment In the girl's gong, there was only one sachet left.
Naturally, he can take all the sachets away, which is not against the rules, but if he really wants to do this, if there is another unscrupulous ghost trying to catch the girl, she will surely die if she loses all the sachets.
The poor girl was still standing in front of Jiang Cheng stupidly, holding a gong, as if she was waiting for a reward from him.
Jiang Cheng put away the sachet, then threw the button into his pocket, looked at the girl's nervous face, stretched out his hand, and lightly patted the girl's waist, signaling her not to wait, and keep walking.
Sorry everyone, I encountered a troublesome thing recently, I just dealt with it, and there will be another chapter later
