Views:

It has to be said that Aaron is indeed a competent tour guide, and he introduced them to the show before he came to the Scarlet Twilight Theater, even though he knew that for many members of the car, this might be a The last show they saw in their lives.

"His Majesty Lawrence loves music, and many musicians of human beings will be specially invited to hell by him after their death, providing them with rare delicacies and holding various performances for them. For example, famous composers among human beings. Schubert lived only thirty-one years old. After his death, he was invited by His Majesty Lawrence to his palace. He stayed there for fifty years and left many excellent pieces of music. So he came to hell, When you come to Oyavis, you are likely to hear the unheard-of musical masterpieces left by these masters in hell. Why should I mention Schubert? Because according to the grapevine, the opening song of His Majesty Lawrence today is Schubert in Two improvisations made in Hell, His Majesty has always loved them."

"Here is another anecdote that attests to His Majesty Lawrence's obsession and fanaticism with music. As we all know, the three present rulers of hell were in a state of hostility before the formal formation of the joint rule of hell, and they were on guard against each other's temptation. Once because of Because of the turmoil in heaven, His Majesty Lawrence and His Majesty Tesur went to the east of hell to visit His Majesty Aimer, hoping to discuss a temporary armistice agreement with him. In His Majesty Aimer's palace, His Majesty Lawrence, who was waiting in the living room, heard The extremely shocking sound of the piano, he couldn't help but followed the sound to find it, and found that the two white doors were closed. The sound of the piano came from the door. I stood outside the door and waited to listen to it, and after the violin ended, I asked the servants in the palace who was playing the violin, and the answer was that it was His Majesty Aimer himself."

"His Majesty Tesur heard that His Majesty Aimer had left them hanging in the reception room, but he was playing the piano unhurriedly, and was very angry. His old enemy, His Majesty Lawrence, who knew his temper well, returned to the conference. After the living room, he comforted him and said, 'I seem to hear the fall of heaven and the destruction of hell from the sound of Aimer's piano; I heard one world disappear and disappear, and countless new worlds are born in the destruction. Even if there is no harmony When the other party meets, I can also guess from the sound of the piano that he is definitely not an easy demon to deal with. Now that heaven is eyeing, I think we should put aside the dispute for the time being and unite.' In this way, after that, the three parties negotiated and reached a union of hell. The agreement to rule has formed the present situation.”

"And just one hundred years after the joint rule of hell was achieved, the third battle between heaven and hell broke out very quickly. Because hell has formed a stable and unified situation, heaven has not been able to obtain any benefits, and it will soon be defeated. Going back. So to this day, there is a story in hell that it was His Majesty Aimer's piano sound that accelerated the unification process of hell. His Majesty Aimer was also regarded by His Majesty Lawrence as one of his most admired musicians, but Aimer His Majesty has always been relatively low-key, rarely making public appearances, and will not hold public concerts on a regular basis like His Majesty Lawrence, so there are very few people who have actually heard His Majesty Aimer's piano."

In Aaron's eloquent narration, the carriage soon arrived at the first stop of hell - Eurasian, the capital under the rule of Lawrence.

As one of the three capitals of hell, and also known as the pearl of hell art, Oyavis is a real city that never sleeps. As long as you have the capital, you can enjoy all kinds of fun here without interruption. The Fina River passes through the city, and the most striking thing on the river bank is a pale golden slanted fan-shaped building - which is also one of the iconic buildings of Oyavis, the Bloody Dusk Theater.

It is said that the Bloody Twilight Theater was built to commemorate the demons who died in the second battle of gods and demons. Whenever the sun sets, the afterglow of the setting sun covers the outer dome of the theater, making the entire fan face red with blood. In general, straight, flamboyant and unyielding, always facing the direction of heaven.

The night just fell, and when the lanterns first came on, the theater was already full of traffic and crowds.

The Scarlet Twilight Theater is ten times larger than the Devil Theater in Devil Town. There are seven floors underground. Here you can enjoy various performances of different types and tastes, including rare classic art performances, and some that directly stimulate the audience. A variety of shows for the senses, in addition to a variety of entertainment clubs inside the theater, can provide guests with a variety of rides and social environments. No matter what type it is, the only thing that can be guaranteed here is that all performances are absolutely worth the money, and they are worth the ticket price, making the audience hooked and happy. Therefore, the Scarlet Twilight Theater has always been the first choice for the daily leisure and entertainment of the residents of Oyavis, and it is also a must-visit place for foreign tourists.

But the atmosphere outside the theater today is different from what it used to be. Those demons who were calling friends and laughing at each other, shoving and shouting at the entrance of the theater, and waiting to enter the theater were gone. All the demons were lined up in neat eighteen columns, waiting to enter the theater one by one. The people around him whispered a word or two, and soon returned to silence. There is no other reason, it is all because this evening, His Majesty Lawrence will hold a piano recital in the largest and highest-scale heroic performance hall of the Scarlet Twilight Theater. Many high-ranking demons will attend the concert, and the entire Oyavis is proud of being able to get a ticket to the performance.

The Devil Town tour group had already sat in the seat reserved for them on the second floor of the theater under the leadership of the tour guide Aaron. Chi Yan and Ye Yingzhi sat in the farthest corner, Chi Yan sat on Ye Yingzhi's right, and on his left sat the sturdy man sitting behind them; Ye Yingzhi's left faced the aisle. Since entering the arena, he has been clasping Chi Yan's right hand tightly.

"Don't be afraid," Ye Yingzhi whispered to his lover, "After all, this is just a game, everyone should find their own way to clear the level, just like in the Devil's Theater."

The two had already put on the black cloaks purchased from the Demon Store. The wind in hell is very strong, so many demons will wear this kind of cloak to prevent the wind. The clerk recommended to them that wearing this kind of cloak to cover the head and face, it is not easy to find the identity of human beings when walking on the road. It was obviously strange to wear a cloak after entering the theater, but Ye Yingzhi was still wearing it. He only pulled down his hood. He took off the cloak from Chi Yan's body and wrapped him with a cloak from front to back. Then he took off Chi Yan's shoes and socks, and put them in the space ring they bought from the Devil's Store for 1,000 points before departure, which was about the size of a mountaineering bag. Although this space ring is cheap, it has The time limit can only be used for seven days. After seven days, the space magic in the ring will expire, and the space will also disappear.

Chi Yan's actions towards Ye Yingzhi were unknown, so he felt a little embarrassed to be barefoot in a public place like the theater. , after wrapping him like this, there is still some surplus below.

At this time, Ye Yingzhi was close to him and whispered in his ear: "Ayan, do you still remember the day we performed at the Devil's Theater? Today is still the same as that day. You have to cooperate with me obediently."

Chi Yan turned to look at Ye Yingzhi, and nodded earnestly. Under the dim lights of the theater, the clear and bright black shadows filled the appearance of the man in front of him.

Ye Yingzhi watched and endured and endured, unable to hold back, he took him over and kissed him lightly on the forehead.

There were crowds of people all around, and the huge theater, which could accommodate five or six thousand people, was full. Suddenly, the golden lights on the stage lit up, and the elegant and gorgeous black grand piano in the middle of the stage reflected bright light. There were bursts of warm applause from the audience, and all the demons stood up and began to applaud, the tour group. The crowd also stood up and applauded.

Amid the waves of applause, a demon walked onto the stage calmly. He was tall and strong, with wider shoulders than ordinary demons. His hair was gray and not thick. On the top of his sparse head were two long and thick gray magic horns. The top of the magic horns was slightly behind his head. It bent, and behind it was a pair of dark gray bone wings. Even by demon standards, he shouldn't be called young anymore.

Lawrence bowed to the audience under the stage, crossed his hands on his chest to signal everyone to be quiet, and when the atmosphere in the theater calmed down, he strode to the black piano on the stage, took a seat on the piano bench, and began to play.

At the beginning of the performance, he was completely immersed in it, swinging his body to the melody of the music, leaning back and then leaning forward, and his subordinates moved very quickly, sometimes crossing his hands on the keys to press a series of naughty and smart notes, and sometimes raising them again. Hand, press a few strong accents. After playing a march, he leaned back slightly, closed his eyes to rest for a while, then opened his eyes again, and continued to devote himself to the next performance with full enthusiasm.

According to what the sturdy men in the carriage said before, at least when Lawrence is performing, they can be guaranteed their lives, and no demons are brave enough to eat people while His Majesty Lawrence is performing. Even in the human world, watching the performance is a Food and water are not allowed inside. So they just need to beware of high-ranking demons targeting them during the show and pulling them away directly after the show is over.

There are three floors in the theater. Ordinary demons dare not eat people at will. Most of the high-ranking demons with the power to eat people at will are concentrated in the front row on the first floor and in the boxes on the third floor. They sit on the second floor, as long as they can try not to cause high-ranking demons. Attention, there is still a chance to escape while the chaos is safe - the games in Devil Town have always had game ethics, and they will not leave no escape space for them, and Oyavis is only the first stop on the journey to hell, it is impossible. Let the tourists all lose the opportunity to continue traveling at the first stop.

But it is impossible to let them all run away smoothly, otherwise the travel agency will not be able to operate.

After the two sets of songs, the lights in the theater were turned on again, and the tour guide Aaron walked to the seats of the tour group with a small note and smiled: "Tell everyone a good news, to provide our tour group with good sightseeing. For the experience, the theater specially gave us two seats for promotion. Because the seats are limited, we still use a lottery method to decide who these two lucky tourists are. Those who are selected can sit on the first floor. In the middle of the fifth row, you can enjoy the style of His Majesty Lawrence from the best angle."

Everyone knew that they could not escape, so they stood up and took a small note from Aaron's hand and opened it.

Chi Yan's note had a red heart drawn on it, and Ye Yingzhi's note was blank.

I heard Aaron say: "The one who draws the red heart is today's lucky tourist. Please prepare to follow me to the first floor and take a seat immediately."

The sturdy man sitting on Chi Yan’s left looked at the red heart in his hand, his face turned into a piece of misery—everyone knew what it meant to be drawn to sit in the front row on the first floor. There were all high-ranking demons sitting there. There is no life, and after the performance, it will be taken away by the devil for food.

Chi Yan looked at the note in his hand and was a little stunned. He could not have imagined that his luck would be so bad these days.

At this time, Ye Yingzhi pulled Chi Yan to stand up, walked to the sturdy man, took away the note with the red heart in his hand at will, gently placed his blank note on his hand, and lowered his head slightly Looking at the other party, he calmly said: "A Yan was selected, but I want to go with him, so let me have this opportunity this time, okay?"
