The Crucifixion Cross

uh...
Otto didn't want to admit that he was jealous of a kid who was at most twelve or thirteen years old, but at this moment, he really felt deeply upset because of the kid's lines.
Of course, the senses of the audience cannot affect the performance of the actors on stage. No matter how upset Otto is, the boy's performance continues.
"However, I let Miss Sister down..." the boy pursed his lips and said disappointedly, "When Miss Sister helped me pick up the apples, I wanted to say 'thank you' to Miss Sister, but in the end, I I still fled away very spinelessly... Even if I heard that someone misunderstood the young lady as a bullying villain, I didn't have the courage to go over and tell them that although the young lady is a member of the church, she is different from those scumbags. She is helping me!"
"I can understand you, brother," Sasha caressed the boy's face, and comforted the boy softly, "When my mother and I saw Miss Sister for the first time, we thought she was sent by the church to force us to buy it. Indulgence coupons, but soon, my mother and I discovered that we were wrong... Not only did the young lady not bully us by virtue of her status as a church knight, but she also helped us drive away the priests of the church..."
"Miss Sister is a good person, but I don't even have the courage to defend her..." The boy sighed softly and said disappointedly, "It would be great if I could be more brave..."
"I think my brother has done a good job," Sasha shook her head and comforted softly, "At least, my brother will still feel guilty for his actions..."
"But what's the use?" The boy laughed at himself, "I'm just a coward after all..."
Sasha's consolation did not cheer up the boy, but it seemed that his depression would affect his sister's mood. The boy coughed dryly, managed to adjust the expression on his face, and changed the topic to other places .
"Forget it, let's not talk about these sad things - Sasha, do you want to go to the show with me?"
"Performance?"
"Well," probably because he mentioned something he was interested in, the boy's tone was no longer as depressed as before, and he was much more cheerful, "It's a street performance by a wandering artist? It's not far away, just beside the square .”
"Street performance... In other words, you don't have to pay for it yourself?" Sasha asked cutely.
What she said was too much, and many audience members couldn't help laughing out loud.
But soon, the laughter subsided, because they could all understand the pain hidden in Sasha's words.
She is a sensible girl...
Su Fei admired silently in her heart.
Following these words, the lights on the stage began to change again.
Even Su Fei, who was watching a stage play for the first time, knew that this meant that the scene was about to change to the 'square'.
Sure enough, when the lights came on again, the setting on the stage had changed from a modest bungalow to a medieval downtown square.
The actors in plain clothes stood together in a seemingly messy manner, but perfectly highlighted the figure of the boy and Sasha, so that the short ones would not be "disappeared in the crowd".
The changing of the lights did not stop, and soon, the highlight pointed to the far left end of the stage - a young girl with long red hair appeared in the audience's field of vision.
The girl's figure is quite pitiful, almost flat from top to bottom, almost comparable to the latest ultra-thin smartphone produced by Mishima.
It is worth mentioning that the girl was wearing a deep purple mask.
Seeing the mask, Otto immediately remembered her true identity—she was the ancestor of William Shakespeare, the famous playwright of the Renaissance in the sixteenth century, and one of the natural stigmata awakeners in the fifteenth century.
Of course, now she has not discovered the power hidden in her body, but as a 'vagrant artist', she uses 'free street performances' to promote her views.
However, she doesn't know her true 'value', but it doesn't mean that destiny doesn't know either...
"A person may look like an angel on the outside, but he may hide himself deep inside!" The red-haired girl wearing a mask recited her lines loudly, "They run rampant like poisonous snakes and eat like hungry rats!"
With a soft 'shua' sound, the girl drew out the long sword at her waist, as if waving the flag of freedom and resistance.
"For their own interests, unrestrained indulgence! Insatiable tyranny, disregarding the lives and deaths of the people!"
As the ancestor of Shakespeare, the girl is naturally a writer who uses a pen as a weapon. Although she drew out a long sword, the posture of swinging the sword is really unprofessional. The lines and the awe-inspiring temperament are really indescribably handsome.
At least, the boys and Sasha who were crowded in the crowd felt that the red-haired masked girl was very handsome from the bottom of their hearts.
The girl seemed to be aware of the existence of these two little fans, and the corner of her mouth curled slightly, and she suddenly pulled a beautiful sword flower.
The slender long sword drew a silver-white trajectory in the air, and the blunt tip of the sword pointed straight at the boy and Sasha under the stage.
"Let me, the righteous man with the sword, cut your throats!"
The strength of this sword is very light, but against the background of this old-fashioned but handsome line, the boy and Sasha pointed at by the point of the sword can't help but hold their breath.
"Justice... the sword bearer..." The boy who was deeply shocked by these words subconsciously repeated the girl's lines, "cut... your throats...!"
He clenched his fists tightly, and his body trembled involuntarily.
Those eyes that had been dimmed due to family misfortune suddenly burst into dazzling brilliance.
The boy's performance made Otto feel a little ominous.
Otto remembered everything related to Kallen as if he had stored video data in his mind, so he clearly remembered that even though a boy like a boy who was excited by Shakespeare's handsome lines could not control himself There are many, but Shakespeare's sword was clearly pointed at Kallen!
But why, now the pointed person has become a boy and the little girl named Sasha?
Why, Kallen's role suddenly disappeared?
A little light seemed to emerge in Otto's mind, but before he could hold on to that light, the plot advanced to a new stage.
Just as the girl finished her lines, a man in aristocratic attire suddenly rushed out from the crowd, pointed at the girl on the left side of the stage and shouted loudly:
"Catch her! She's slandering the church!"
After this shout, several tall adult males wearing armor quickly sprang out of the crowd.
Without hesitation, they pushed away the civilians in front of them, and before the girl could react, they grabbed her arm and twisted it backward, pushing the girl's shriveled body to the floor.
Their movements are proficient, and their reaction speed is beyond common sense - obviously, all this is not the man's temporary intention, but planned!
This is simply a conspiracy against girls who dare to 'slander' the church!
The girl who came to her senses wanted to resist, but how could she, who was powerless, be the opponent of these reserve knights?
In the panic, not only was she unable to break free from the shackles of the reserve knight, the mask used to conceal her true face also fell to the ground.
The girl lost her mask, and also lost the ability to resist, but she did not let her go, but gritted her teeth and roared:
"(Even if you caught me and executed me today,) the people will not be deceived by you like this again!"
"Compared to us, you should worry about your own situation first!" The man in aristocratic clothes sneered, his words were full of contempt and disdain, "How dare you slander the church...you are really a brave man It's a pity that you underestimated the church's vigilance against you guys with evil intentions!"
"My intentions are not right!?" The girl gritted her teeth angrily. "The one who is really evil is obviously your church! It is the church that deceives the people with indulgences and squeezes their hard-earned money!"
"It seems that you are not only out of order, but also in your brain..." The man snorted coldly, "You said the church is deceiving the people? Then you have to show evidence!"
"Aren't indulgences enough to prove that you are deceiving the people! Aren't those worthless pieces of paper just proof that you oppressed the people!"
"Indulgences are a scam?!" The male laughed sarcastically: "I said, you have to show evidence for everything! You say that indulgences are a scam, but you have to show evidence that you can't get rid of your sins after buying indulgences." Evidence? How about it? Can you show it?"
Of course, it is impossible for the girl to produce evidence, because the fundamental purpose of buying indulgences to wash away her sins is to ascend to heaven after death, and she is still standing here in a 'good condition', which means she is not dead yet.
Since she didn't die, the girl naturally couldn't produce evidence that 'the indulgence note is a complete scam'.
Both men and women are aware of this.
However, just when the girl wanted to use 'then you showed evidence that you can ascend to heaven after purchasing indulgences! When this sentence was used to refute the man—this part of the mental activity was made up by Su Fei—the man didn’t give the girl a chance to speak, and directly stepped on the girl’s face, viciously using the dirty sole of his shoe. ravaged the girl's delicate face.
The huge force made the girl's lips overflow with blood, but the girl didn't give up, she still struggled to speak out her argument.
The girl's resistance made the man's feet stronger and stronger, and the blood around the girl's mouth also increased.
This cruel scene made everyone in the auditorium show a look of intolerance.
The kind-hearted Qiyana directly hid her small face in Su Fei's arms, and she didn't dare to look any further—she was not timid, but because she was afraid that she could not help but rush forward and give the role of the villain to Fatty. Beat up.
The masked girl next to Su Fei didn't look very good either, but after all, she had seen this scene more than once, so her psychological endurance was still stronger than that of Qiyana, so she didn't compete with Qiyana for the position, but just dragged The fingers on Su Fei's arm were only increasing their strength.
Su Fei was also very uncomfortable in his heart, but now he is still uncomfortable. The strength of the masked girl's hand made him feel no longer able to tolerate the second feeling besides 'pain'.
Fortunately in misfortune, the masked girl didn't pinch her down all the time.
Because, the real 'protagonist' has finally officially debuted.
Hua Ling’s words: Although the line ‘O, what may man within him hide, though angel on the outward side!’ is indeed a classic line in Shakespeare’s Tit for Tat, the time for Ziyuan’s story is In 1476, Shakespeare was born in 1564, with a gap of nearly 100 years, so I still treat her as the ancestor of William Shakespeare.
By the way, this chapter is 3500, so please ask for a reward!
Chapter 110. The Purple Iris
The real protagonist of the stage play "Purple Iris and Green Lily" is of course "Phantom Thief Purple Iris".
However, the "Phantom Thief Purple Iris" that appeared at this time is obviously not the very mysterious Phantom Thief on the ticket of the play. He did not use smoke bombs and other "high-tech" props when he appeared on the stage, and only wore a dark cloak , Wearing the mask that the red-haired girl lost in the fight, it doesn't shine at all.
From the perspective of the 'protagonist', this debut is too simple.
If Su Fei rated this scene, he would only give it five points at most—five points out of a hundred.
However, Otto didn't think so.
It is also based on a 150-point system, Su Fei gave [-] points, but Otto gave [-] points—a full [-] points more than the full [-] points!
That's right, although such a simple and even humble appearance does not match the identity of the "protagonist", it fits the reality enough, because that's how Karen really appeared on the stage at the beginning!
She didn't fling down a few smoke bombs used to confuse the prepared knights, and she didn't imitate the way the red-haired girl said before, she just picked up the mask from the ground, and found it at will. Putting a piece of rag on his body, the disguise was completed, and then, like the actor on the stage, he killed the preparatory knights with three punches and two kicks. The princess disappeared into the central square with the red-haired girl in her arms.
If I had to say something special, it would probably be that the moves of this 'Phantom Thief Purple Iris' are the same as those of the red-haired girl, and they are very, very entertaining, right?
However, this "fancy fist and embroidered legs" can't change Su Fei's senses.
He felt that the monotonous appearance was a bit boring, but Otto thought it was incredible that this scene was perfect.
only……
How did the person who wrote the script know all this?
In this world, there are really not many people like Otto who can live to more than 500 years old.
At least, as far as Otto knew, apart from himself, only the 'immortal' Fu Hua had escaped the shackles of time like him, and had lived longer than him—Otto belonged to the century-old generation, and Fu Hua Hua is a generation of thousands of years.
Fu Hua, who has lived from the last era to the present, is not an exaggeration to say that he is Otto's senior.
It is a pity that Fu Hua's memory has suffered a lot of defects during these long years. Today, what Fu Hua can remember is only a memory of about 500 years.
Cough, to get down to business——
Otto himself was the person involved, so he can clearly remember what happened 500 years ago.
If Otto was the screenwriter, director and action designer of this stage play, then the restoration speed of Breaking Through the Sky is actually quite normal, but the problem is that until the owner of the bridal shop gave him the ticket, Otto didn't care about it. I don't know anything about the stage play.
In other words-
Besides him, there was a second—no, a third person who witnessed all that with his own eyes and recorded it in detail.
So, who will this 'third man' be?
Why did Ta know all this, and why did he record all this and give it life in the form of a stage play?
More importantly, if Ta knows these things inside out, what about this glaring mistake in the script?
The existence of Otto was directly erased, and the screenwriter did not hint that "Phantom Thief Purple Iris" was Kallen, and the person pointed at by Shakespeare's blunt sword changed from Kallen to a boy and Sasha...
Why did these changes occur?
Otto, who frowned tightly, thought about it in his heart.
At this moment, the boy and Sasha on the stage also slowly moved away from the crowd.
"Did you see it, brother?" Sasha said to the boy with her blushing face dancing and dancing, "That young lady is really, really handsome!"
"The one with the red hair, or the one who saved her with the mask?"
"Both of them!" Sasha nodded vigorously, "Brother, don't you think so?"
"Me?" The boy was startled, and then said hesitantly: "Indeed, whether it is the red-haired lady who made the church's sinister intentions public, or the masked sister who saved the red-haired lady from the church, they are indeed Very handsome, but..."
The boy smiled wryly.
"But, what's the use of that, Sasha?" The boy said softly, stroking Sasha's soft long hair, "The red-haired young lady stood up bravely and resisted the oppression of the church alone, but the result What? She was ravaged and humiliated in public by the lackeys of the church who had been eyeing her for a long time. If the young lady wearing a mask hadn't stepped forward, she might..."
The expression on the boy's face darkened.
"Even the masked lady who rescued her from the lackeys of the church didn't dare to confront the church head-on, but disappeared after saving her... Yes, Sasha, the girls are indeed very handsome, but this kind of Not only can the handsome behavior not shake the church's oppression of us, but it will also bring misfortune to themselves..."
"So, brother, do you want to continue to endure like this?" Sasha said calmly: "Just continue to endure the exploitation of the church, the oppression of the church, and the fear that I will be taken away by the people of the church when I go home every day." Uneasiness and fear...Brother, do you want to continue to endure it?"
"Of course I don't want to!" The boy bit his lips, "But can 'not wanting' make the church stop oppressing us? Can 'not wanting' make those disgusting guys let you go?! 'Don't want' just Can the church continue to exploit us in the name of indulgences!? Some things cannot be done just by thinking about them, because we are too weak and powerless..."
"The ones who are weak and powerless are just us now," Sasha said softly, "but what about us in the future? Will we be stronger, more confident, and braver in the future?"
"It's useless to be strong, confident and brave, Sasha," the boy shook his head, "We have to consider more practical things, and whether our mother will be implicated by our actions— Leaving aside other things, even those two young ladies must wear masks to dare to oppose the Church!"
"Yeah, the mask..." Sasha hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, and her timid and cowardly eyes suddenly reflected an extremely dazzling brilliance, "Since those two young ladies dared to fight with you after wearing the mask If the church fights, then why can't we?"
The boy was taken aback by Sasha's words, and then looked at his sister in disbelief.
"Sasha, what do you mean...?!"
Sasha didn't reply, but turned her gaze to the place where the two disappeared, to the dark purple mask that was discarded by the two.
