Following "The Sound of the Earth" and "The Stars of Mankind Shine", the third act is "Love, Nature and War", which integrates and adapts myths, fairy tales, traditional music and dramas from various regions and ethnic groups in ancient and modern times to symbolize "every "I" is the protagonist, telling a story that travels through time.
Musicals, operas, dance dramas and other forms are alternately interspersed. "I" appears next to each historical figure, or passes by, or "influences" them by accident, sometimes humorous, sometimes sad. heavy.
The third act lasted for five hours. Except for occasionally explaining background knowledge to Mass and Bobby around him, Li Liang spent most of the time immersed in it.
"Reincarnation Paradise"
There was a passage that left a deep impression on him. "I" met Socrates in Athens, listened to a few conversations, woke up from a nap, and found that he was in the almost contemporary Lu country, chatting with Confucius. After a few words, "I" returned to Athens in the evening and told Socrates about Confucius's thoughts. After that, the two great sages from the East and the West "sympathized with each other" across the distance.
There are many more cultural collisions that transcend time and geographical limitations. Unfortunately, Li Liang can only understand content related to China. For example, "I" followed Columbus to the Americas, and went south to the West with Zheng He. "I" witnessed Guan Yu. The defeat in Maicheng also witnessed Napoleon's encounter with Waterloo. "I" was Romeo and Liang Shanbo. "I" watched Bach playing "Aria on the G String" with only one G string, and also listened to Guan Pinghu playing the piano. The song "Flowing Water" forgets both things and me.
It was not until the end, when Leslie Cheung appeared, that Li Liang suddenly realized that whether it was intentional by director Yuan Quan, the third act seemed to have deliberately compressed the content after Xi'an ruled the world. Modern or contemporary culture was basically brushed aside, rather like a special It was arranged for him, an "ancient man" from a thousand years ago.
The fourth act is called "New World". First, through Yuan Quan's lens, it shows how countless humans rose up to resist when the goblins invaded, and those tragic and tragic scenes were all condensed into the names on the "Hero Monument".
The darkness finally passed, and the crew of "Hans and His Friends" and the Big Chief Band made their final appearance. The audience wiped away their tears and welcomed a new world of freedom and joy.
What surprised Li Liang the most was that the whole performance ended with a chorus he was very familiar with - "Unforgettable Tonight".
The melody of this song was almost engraved in his DNA. The moment it was sung, he couldn't laugh or cry at first, and then his eyes turned red as he listened. He was stunned for a long time, and it was not until the ambassador of the Law and Order Council came to the stage to give a speech that he came back to his senses. .
That ambassador represented the Pantheon, the Nordrassil Council, the Makosik Pact, the Central Empire, the Conway Alliance, the Realm of the Dead, the Fire, the seven permanent members of the Security Council, to the gates of human spirituality. Congratulations on the opening and welcome humanity to officially become a member of the Federation of Law and Order.
The envoy from Du Yujing read out the imperial edict of Emperor Haotian, to the effect that human civilization is naturally protected by the Central Empire, and any act that offends or invades the basic world of mankind will be regarded as a provocation to the Central Empire.
The wording of the "imperial edict" was solemn and majestic, but Li Liang thought of the battle between Harlan Potter and the Lord of the Void. After this battle, the Central Empire's transcendent status in the spiritual world may be unsustainable.
Afterwards, under the witness of the media, Robben signed trade agreements with ambassadors from multiple civilizations, including the Terranza Empire, the Yodel Federation, the Tifami Republic, the Dickinson and Skylar Consortium, and the Eternal Magnetic Field. Zlen.
Li Liang was not idle either and met with many influential figures, such as the famous adventurer and great magician Koko, the senior navigator of the Explorers Association Leona Jinsu, etc.
When all his planned itinerary was over, it was already two o'clock in the morning, and he returned to the lounge on the top floor of World Tree. Others were still on "official business", and he was the only one left in the huge room.
Various activities in Qishan City are not over yet. There is faint music coming from the window. Occasionally, fireworks explode among the branches of the World Tree, and colorful lights are reflected on the glass.
Li Liang sat alone in the middle of a nearly five-meter-long sofa, ate an apple, studied the vase on the coffee table for a while, flipped through the latest issue of "Makosik Times", and then went to the bathroom to brush up. I had a tooth, and I sat on the toilet and read the label of hand sanitizer several times.
Then he sat back on the sofa, picked up the bracelet, hesitated for a moment, and finally didn't make a call, just put it aside silently.
He summoned a portal, threw the vase in, summoned another portal, reached out to catch the vase that flew out, and played with it three times before the vase broke.
Fortunately, no one should care that there is a vase missing in the lounge.
He ran to the center of the living room again, drew a magic circle, summoned the Archangel "Paimon" of the Abundant Origin, the Profound Path, and the Crown Sephiroth, and "chatted" several times.
He first asked the "omniscient" Paimon in several different ways whether Harlan Potter had betrayed the Federation of Law and Order. Paimon's answer was always: no.
When he asked where Emperor Haotian was, the answer he received was incomprehensible.
Paimon said, "At this moment."
For this reason, he also carefully searched the spiritual field of vision. If Emperor Haotian were in Qishan City, he would definitely be dazzling. Unfortunately, the two locations with the densest concentration of spirits in the city belong to the two holy priests, Tripoka. and Ometi.
He asked again about the mysterious cave in Mexico City, and Paimon answered "The Bridge of Time." As for the strange "stew smell" on everyone's body, the answer was "The Eye of the Void," which meant he didn't ask.
To sum up, he found that Paimon would only directly give "what" and would not explain why. Once it involves Titans, gods, and time observers, the answer would be "don't know", which means "noscio". It is completely transcendent, incredible, and unfathomable.
Moreover, the summons was not unlimited. He would be tired and feel like he had stayed up all night for several nights in a row. His mind was groggy, so he had to give up.
The last time I looked at the time, only half an hour had passed.
It's still a long time before dawn.
After sitting there staring for another five minutes, Li Liang suddenly stood up, walked straight to the door, and opened the door.
"Father..." The Guards soldiers on guard raised their hands in salute and habitually called "Father God". Then they remembered the "new rules" and quickly changed their words, "Mr. Li Liang."
"Well," Li Liang stood in the corridor where you could hear the drop of a needle every step of the way. He felt inexplicably bored and said casually, "You guys go and have a rest."
"Uh..." The guard was at a loss.
"This is an order."
Li Liang waved his hand and walked back to the room. Just as he was about to sit down on the sofa, he suddenly heard rapid footsteps approaching from far away.
Come to work?
He immediately ran to the door and was stunned for a moment when he opened the door.
"boss?"
Mesai put his hands on his hips and asked breathlessly: "Are you okay?"
"This... I should ask you," Li Liang wondered, "Didn't I ask you to stay in the anchor space?"
"Don't talk nonsense, just follow me if you have nothing to do," Messi turned around and left.
"Okay," Li Liang followed and asked until he reached the elevator, "Where are we going?"
Messi lowered his voice mysteriously: "You'll find out when you get there."
