Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 486 Prologue
At 1:30 p.m., Chen Chuan and four others arrived at the ticket office in front of the door. The ticket inspector told them that they had second-class tickets and needed to wait until 3 o'clock when the show officially started before they could enter.

"We have to wait another hour." Pan Xiaode muttered.

Tan Zhi was helpless, because he didn't buy the ticket, but it was given to him by his instructor, Mr. Wei. After all, the seats were limited and the ticket was very hard to get, so it was good enough to get one.

At this moment, most of the people in the square were spectators waiting outside like them. Only those who were obviously high-ranking officials did not need to wait and walked directly in through the VIP channel.

Chen Chuan then remembered the ticket that Counselor Pei gave him, which seemed to be different from the ticket that Tan Zhi showed him, so he took it out and looked at it, and said, "I also have a few tickets here. A friend gave them to me a few days ago. You can take a look."

Tan came over to take a look, his eyes lit up, and he said, "It's a first-class ticket." He said excitedly to Pan Xiaode and Qi Huixin, "Then we don't need to wait outside the barrier rope, we can enter directly."

Chen Chuan nodded and said, "That's good. I thought it wouldn't be useful."

Tan Zhi and the other two were very happy. Not only could they enter the venue early, but they could also watch the show from a private box inside. This was much better than the original one.

Four people squeezed out of the crowd and came to another ticket gate. After showing their tickets, they walked in along the VIP passage. Once inside, there was a special waiter responsible for leading the way and taking them to the box.

When passing by the hall, the high-ranking officials and company executives who had come in earlier were gathered in groups of three or five, talking and chatting there.

These people did not just come to watch the musical, they also treated this place as a large social venue. When they saw these young people with outstanding temperament walk in, they just thought they were the young descendants of some high-ranking official and noble, and cast their glances at them from time to time.

However, the fighters following them all tensed up at the same time.

A government official noticed the abnormality of the consultant next to him and asked, "Lao Liu, what's the matter?"

Old Liu whispered, "Councilman Ai, those young men just now were all fighters."

Councillor Ai took a few glances and said in an appreciative tone, "Really? They are all very outstanding young people."

Martial arts are popular all over the world today. Even if they cannot become real fighters, the middle and upper class people will hire one or two fighting teachers for their children. Among them, there will inevitably be many talented people, so it is not surprising that there are a few fighters among the young people.

Old Liu still said with a serious expression: "Member Ai, the leader among them may be a third-level fighter, and he gives me a strong sense of threat."

"Is it?"

Councillor Ai was a little surprised. He stopped smiling, looked around, and said, "Have someone check it out. Remember not to make too much noise."

The public security in Weiguang District is very good, and generally no one dares to cause trouble. However, vicious incidents have occurred frequently recently, and they are promoting certain security proposals, which should not be ignored.

Old Liu nodded, "Yes."

As soon as Chen Chuan and his three companions arrived at the door of the box, internal security personnel came up to inquire about them. However, they were all very polite. After all, those who could come here were not ordinary people, so they tried their best not to offend them.

Chen Chuan showed his name card, and the security guard immediately verified his identity through the border pass, saluted solemnly, and said, "Captain Chen, sorry to bother you, I wish you a pleasant viewing."

Tan Zhi and the other two didn't feel it when they were outside just now, but now they could clearly feel that Chen Chuan was completely different from them. In addition to his personal fighting ability, there was also a difference in status.

Although given their backgrounds, they usually come into contact with middle and upper class people and it is nothing special, but since Chen Chuan is their peer, the feeling is completely different.

And they knew that Chen Chuan's background was not as good as theirs, and that he had achieved all of this through his own hard work, and they couldn't help but feel deep admiration and envy for him.

Councillor Ai also received a report from the security personnel. He was a little surprised. "The executive captain of the processing bureau? So young?" He wondered which family he belonged to, but as long as his identity was not a problem, it would be fine.

After Chen Chuan and others entered the box, they sat down on the comfortable chairs. From where they stood, they could see the entire stage, which was a very good perspective.

There is also a small bar and beverage display cabinet. There is a separate waiter outside each box door who can provide various catering services at any time.

At this moment, in the box opposite, you can see people coming in and out from time to time, shaking hands and chatting, and some people nodding in greeting.

Pan Xiaode curled his lips. He didn't like such occasions. When he was a child, what he hated most was being taken to various parties.

After joining Wuyi College, he rarely had such worries, especially after he and Qi Huixin had plastic surgery to look like sister and brother. Whenever his family members saw him looking unhappy, he was happy to have some peace and quiet.

Chen Chuan drank the hot drink slowly. He logged onto the platform of the theater, where there were many recordings of past song and dance performances and dramas. Of course, this was not as effective as watching them live.

But there was still a lot of time, so he was going to look through it casually. Suddenly, a noise in a private room suddenly got louder, and a young man was seen yelling at a well-dressed middle-aged man, attracting the attention of people in other private rooms.

Pan Xiaode took a look and said, "Hey, isn't this the kid Lu Miao?"

Tan Zhi immediately asked: "Do you know each other?"

Pan Xiaode said: "I'm not familiar with him. I've met him a few times. His father is the deputy director of the Security and Defense Department. He started practicing martial arts earlier than us and is usually very proud of it. The person he yelled at should be his cousin Bao Yun, who is his father's assistant."

Chen Chuan took a look and found that the Urban Security and Defense Department was theoretically the superior department of the Urban Patrol and Handling Bureau. The head of the department was directly responsible to the mayor and had a very high rank, so he could be considered his superior.

From what the two said, it seemed that Director Lu had arrested someone, and Lu Miao asked his cousin to release the person. However, even if the latter could really do so, he would not do it if he said it publicly on this occasion.

At this time, the security personnel in the theater quickly stepped forward and carried the person out.

Assistant Bao seemed to be embarrassed too. He apologized to the people around him and followed them out to deal with the matter. As the two men left, bursts of discussion rang out in various boxes.

About ten minutes before the official opening of the musical, Chen Chuan noticed that the noise outside had grown louder, and then a very graceful old man and a woman dressed solemnly and elegantly walked in arm in arm.

The old man was wearing an imported formal suit. Although he looked quite old, he walked steadily and had a bright look in his eyes. When he entered the venue, everyone in the box stood up and applauded to greet him.

The old man waved to the people around him. Chen Chuan noticed that the figure who walked in almost at the same time as the two of them was Chen Bitong, whom he had met before in the fusion area.

When he looked over, Chen Bitong also looked over. After their eyes met, he nodded at him. Chen Chuan also nodded in return.

Tan Zhi said: "That's Speaker Quan and his wife, right?"

Pan Xiaode noticed Chen Chuan's gaze and asked curiously, "Student Chen, the person next to him seems very powerful. Do you know him?"

Chen Chuan said: "I met him not long ago."

After Speaker Quan exchanged a few words with the people who were waiting there, he went to the second-level box in the middle, which was the best seat in the whole venue.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Chen Chuan no longer paid attention to Chen Bitong. Instead, he put on the badge required to watch the musical and waited quietly for the musical to begin.

A few minutes later, the bright light curtain around dimmed, and only the light on the stage lit up, presenting a green wilderness with undulating terrain.

It is worth mentioning that the scenery is not entirely realized through the world map. The near view uses a combination of real objects and lights, and only the distant view is presented through the world map.

After waiting for a while, a vague female voice was heard, as if it came from the wilderness, rising from the heart, and seemed to be able to move people's souls.

Chen Chuan could sense a force that affected the mind, but judging from the singer's aura, he did not seem to have any martial arts abilities.

It doesn't mean that only fighters can practice spiritual cultivation. There were many religious people in the old days who took this path. However, unlike fighters, their spirits were usually superficial and uncohesive, and they had no substantial power. But in certain specific situations, they could cause certain spiritual infection and resonance.

What is in front of us should be the prologue, in which a mute shepherdess picked up a down-and-out knight. This chapter is the beginning of the whole article, which is also the first part of the divine song.

Chen Chuan listened carefully, but unfortunately, maybe it was because of the singer or the language barrier, he couldn't hear anything special from it.

However, according to the introduction, the content of the songs will be progressively advanced according to the plot, with more content presented towards the end. The most essential part of the whole play is in the second half, when the conflict reaches its most intense moment. In this case, he is very much looking forward to what's next.

Amid the singing, a young woman with long platinum hair walked onto the stage. She wore a windproof hat and a multi-layered skirt that fell to her ankles. Her face was a little dirty, but her pair of light green eyes were very impressive, reminding people of the extremely clear lake water.

According to the established script, the shepherdess came on stage and came under a tree. She parted the grass and found the down-and-out knight lying on the ground.

It seemed to be a young man wearing old armor, and the firm lines could be seen from his exposed chin.

But at this moment, Chen Chuan felt something strange. He tried to turn off the boundary, but didn't see anything wrong. But when he used his second self to block all external field information and looked again, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. That was not a young man at all, but just a set of empty armor.
