"How was he discovered?" Chi Yan's eyes flashed a trace of pity and faint fear, his hands trembled slightly, and he couldn't help turning his head to look at Ye Yingzhi.

Ye Yingzhi's expression was still indifferent and calm, he still stared at everything that was happening on the stage, and didn't even give a peripheral vision to his lover, but his hand responded to Chi Yan's question.

Chi Yan sat on the right side of Ye Yingzhi, Ye Yingzhi put his right hand on his waist lightly, and then slowly slipped, pulling open his neat shirt, gently poking in from the hem, and then along the trousers. It didn't stop until it reached the position of his tail vertebra, and gently pressed his index finger and middle finger on his tail vertebra, twirling and turning: "Here."

In the crowd, at such a terrifying juncture, Chi Yan blushed because of his actions, and swayed his waist slightly, but he didn't dare to dodge sharply because he was worried about attracting the attention of the audience, so he could only use a slightly reproachful voice in a low voice. The tone called Ye Yingzhi's name to remind him: "Ye Yingzhi..."

Ye Yingzhi still had a calm and composed expression, still didn't look back at him, just continued to explain in a calm and calm tone: "Did you notice? This is where the devil has a long tail. The first half of the singing In that song with a South Asian style, there was a movement in the dance, covering the place and twisting. The other four demons were actually holding their tails, only the human's movements were wrong, his hands were very stiff, and there was no The feeling of the tail swaying up and down with the melody - his observation and expressiveness are much stronger than ordinary human beings, otherwise he would not dare to apply as an actor and take great risks to earn this point. But even if the devil turns into a human being , the tail still exists; even if humans try to pretend to be demons, they will still show flaws if they don’t have a tail.”

Therefore, the devil has already discovered the doubts, but he is still acting without revealing any flaws, cooperating in the "game", observing and confirming his guesses, and even sending signals to the other three companions without a trace - only human beings are In the dark, maybe even until the last moment, thinking that he was perfectly disguised, unaware that he was the only one who was in the dark on the stage.

At this time, the four demons on the stage had already revealed their original appearance. They bowed again to the audience for the curtain call, laughed together and ran to the backstage with the desperately struggling human beings. To the response—the first thing people in Devil Town learn to abandon is the virtues in human society; or in other words, if there is no strong dark desire lurking in their hearts, how can they attract demons and receive invitations

Even Ye Yingzhi, who only wants to save himself, has a naturally dark soul that attracts demons.

Perhaps the only truly innocent person on this island is Chi Yan, who was brought to the island by Ye Yingzhi in need of a life extension.

Chi Yan stared blankly at the human being held backstage, and felt uncomfortable. The feeling was indescribable. It was as uncomfortable and suffocating as when he saw the angel fountain in the central square and "This is a real angel". This time, the feeling was even stronger, because the other party, like him, was also a living human being, not a statue of unknown authenticity.

When the stage ended, the audience left, and when everyone left, the electronic watch on their wrist would flash a point change reminder. Ye Yingzhi and Chi Yan each received fifty points. The 50 points when buying the tickets were all deducted from Ye Yingzhi's watch, so now adding 50 points each is equivalent to Ye Yingzhi's points remaining unchanged, and Chi Yan got 50 points.

The Devil's Theater began to release the performance information for preparations ten days in advance and recruited actors for both humans and demons. The audience tickets were sold on the day of the performance. After Ye Yingzhi pulled Chi Yan out, he began to watch the performance information that had been released. After he had a general understanding of how the theater operated, he wanted to perform a play, because only as an actor could he get a lot of points at one time, and points were exactly what he was eager to do. The things that are needed represent Ah Yan's life.

That's why Ye Yingzhi's performance has only one criterion, that is, high remuneration and more points rewarded after success. Therefore, he will not consider performances that pay less than 5,000 points, and he will look at the details of performances that pay more than 5,000 points.

Chi Yan saw Ye Yingzhi's performance information about recruiting actors and guessed the other party's plan. He also knew that the other party was trying to earn points to continue his life. He was reluctant to let Ye Yingzhi work so hard to support him. I didn't do it, I just watched the information about recruiting actors. He didn't dare to pick only the ones with high pay like Ye Yingzhi, but read the performance description carefully, trying to find the ones within his ability, who were more secure and would not go wrong.

As a result, Ye Yingzhi directly pulled him to his side when he saw it, and nodded his nose with a smile: "Don't think about it, you can't even hide your performance from me. You can play it later when there is a game project that suits you."

Chi Yan knew that what her lover said was the truth, but she still defended herself reluctantly: "...I can't be seen through so easily."

"Really?" Ye Yingzhi said casually while continuing to browse the information, "After returning to the hotel, you and I will try to act first, and I will see if you have improved. It's good to play mythical drama, I will play Shang Zhou. Wang, how about you play Daji who is trying to seduce me to trouble Chaoge?"

When he heard it, he was not at ease, and Chi Yan was so angry that he ignored him.

At this time, Ye Yingzhi also found the highest paid performance, a stage play that tells the story of hell. This stage play requires a total of 25 actors, of which 20 characters are recruited for demons, 5 roles are recruited for humans, the other four roles have been recruited, and only one role is still vacant. Fifteen thousand points.

In order to ensure the gameplay, these actor recruitment information will only release the three information of how many actors are recruited for humans/devils, whether each character needs an actor or an actress, and how much the corresponding remuneration is. The identity of the character in the play and the role on the stage. Candidates will not know the identity of the role they play and get the corresponding script until they enter the single preparation room of the theater on the day of the performance.

This means that in this play, each person or demon only knows that there are twenty demons and five humans and their identities on the stage, and does not know whether the corresponding identities of the other twenty-four actors are humans or demons.

So Ye Yingzhi didn't know what role he was going to play at this time, only that this role would at least not appear as a woman. But it is conceivable that such a high remuneration must correspond to great risks and extremely high challenges.

In fact, neither he nor Chi Yan knew about it. There is a saying among the humans in Devil Town: Characters who are paid more than 10,000 must not challenge, because it must be a difficult challenge for humans. No humans can do it. Do not show flaws. Points are tempting, but if the risk is too great to survive, of course, life is more valuable in comparison. After all, no one wants to have the life to go in and act, but not to come out to pick up the point.

What's more, the price of this character is 15,000 points, and the difficulty factor is soaring. So this actor recruitment information has been released for eight days, and the other four human roles have been recruited, and this role is still unpopular.

There are five theaters in the Devil's Theater, and different performances are shown 24 hours a day. The performance time of the stage play "The Devil's Arrival" that Ye Yingzhi applied for is scheduled to be at 7 o'clock in the evening the day after tomorrow. It lasts for two and a half hours and is expected to end at 9:30. Actors need to enter the corresponding single preparation room three to five hours in advance to prepare.

In order to further familiarize themselves with the venue and deal with various emergencies, Chi Yan and Ye Yingzhi specially bought the performance tickets for the theater where "Devil's Arrival" was located during the next day, which was still the cheapest seat.

In the Devil's Theater, "actors" and "audiences" follow different rules of the game, and their lives and deaths do not affect each other. If the actor can also mislead the devil to fight for life through his ability to adapt, perform, imitate, disguise, etc., the life and death of the audience all depend on luck.

0~3 lucky audiences will be drawn for each performance. Chi Yan and Ye Yingzhi watched the first acapella performance with great luck. Not a single audience was selected, but it is common Luck doesn't come again and again. At the halftime of the play, two viewers were drawn as "lucky viewers", and soon after the draw was over, demon staff came to take them away.

The two of them followed away silently with numb expressions, no shouting, no calling for help, no fighting, as if they had expected this day to come, and this time being selected was just a picture of the day when they were always worried and feared that death would come. a period.

No matter how many times he saw it, it might be because of empathy that Chi Yan would still feel uncomfortable.

On the day of the performance of "Devil Comes", Chi Yan bought the cheapest audience ticket early in the morning - he actually really wanted to buy the best and most expensive rank, after all, this was Ye Yingzhi's first performance, but considering the best The position also means that the probability of being drawn as a lucky spectator is the highest. For the sake of safety, he still had to give up this plan regrettably.

It was only three hours before the start of the performance that Ye Yingzhi lowered his head and kissed Chi Yan's forehead, and said goodbye to the other party softly. Ye Yingzhi hopes that Chi Yan will go back to the hotel and come out when the performance is about to start. After all, it is the safest place - buildings with green signs are exempt from all devil games, and the old devil at the hotel front desk will not allow human villains to play murder on the site.

Chi Yan won't do anything extravagant when he knows that there are dangers. In fact, his plan is the same as Ye Yingzhi. Even if the other party doesn't tell him, he will choose to go back to the hotel and wait for the performance time. So he kissed Ye Yingzhi's lower lip and jaw back, and after watching his lover walk into the theater, he set off and walked towards the hotel.

Entering the single preparation room belonging to him according to the corresponding number, Ye Yingzhi, who got the script, knew for the first time the identity of the character he was going to play - the most powerful demon in the play "Devil Comes", from hell The upper demon, one of the co-rulers of hell.

Such a big devil, even if it is played by an ordinary devil, is a bit reluctant, and it is difficult to show the temperament and power of this role, let alone played by humans. There are almost no human beings who can not show their flaws, no wonder the reward for a scene is as high as 15,000 points.

Ye Yingzhi glanced at the script at random, put it aside, smiled, and began to look at the rest of the preparation room.

Since it's here, give it a try. Ah Yanke looked at him from below.
