Chapter 418 Drama
Chapter 418 Drama
Jiang Shuzhou felt dizzy and unsteady, with flashbacks occasionally popping into his mind.
In the scene, Jiang Shuzhou is wearing a yellow robe and writing something on a huge book, while the clicking sound of typing can be heard all around, as if someone is using a typewriter.
This feeling is very strange.
But soon, everything disappeared, as if nothing had happened.
However, Jiang Shuzhou did not take it lightly.
This is a dream; no one knows what will happen.
Based on Jiang Shuzhou's understanding of dreams, perhaps this is what he did while he was still in a dream.
Perhaps he is a...
playwright?
For some reason, this word suddenly popped into my mind.
"Sir, sir? Are you alright?"
Suddenly, someone patted Jiang Shuzhou on the shoulder.
In reality, Jiang Shuzhou would be able to sense it completely, but this is a dream. Right now, Jiang Shuzhou is basically an ordinary mage. Although he can cast spells, other aspects of him have been weakened.
For example, eating and sleeping.
He didn't need it originally, but now Jiang Shuzhou needs it.
This doesn't feel good.
Jiang Shuzhou frowned.
"gentlemen?"
Jiang Shuzhou looked at the person and found that he was a very young man, probably eighteen or nineteen years old.
"It's not a big problem."
Jiang Shuzhou said.
"That's good. By the way, my name is Jimmy. What's your name?"
"My name is Na..."
Jiang Shuzhou wanted to say his other name, but somehow, he ended up changing it.
"My name is Jiang Shuzhou."
Jimmy was very surprised when he heard this.
"Your surname is actually Jiang? Is your surname really Jiang?"
Nonsense, what would my surname be if not Jiang? Like you, with my given name first and surname last, like Zhou?
Seeing Jiang Shuzhou's annoyed expression, Jimmy realized he had said the wrong thing.
"Please forgive my rudeness, esteemed sir."
Jimmy's attitude instantly became extremely respectful.
"To atone for my sins, I'm willing to show you around here, Venus, this city of art. I hope you have a pleasant journey."
Jiang Shuzhou had a strange feeling that something was not right.
"What's your last name?"
Jiang Shuzhou asked.
"Of course, the surname is Ji."
"?"
Jimmy's surname is Ji, which doesn't seem wrong, since there are indeed people with the surname Ji in China.
"Don't you know?"
"What is it?"
Jiang Shuzhou secretly cast a spell, intending to make Jimmy tell everything.
"What's going on?"
"As everyone knows, in the mortal world, some surnames are more prestigious than others, and they also possess extremely powerful strength that no one can impersonate."
"besides……"
After listening, Jiang Shuzhou realized that this was his dream, so naturally, Chinese surnames were more prestigious than Western ones.
At the same time, based on the idea that "a gorilla doesn't need a doctor," he can basically run rampant, and no one dares to touch him.
Am I really such a feudal person?
Jiang Shuzhou pondered for a moment, then decided to ignore it. This was his dream, so it was naturally beneficial to him; it was a good thing.
Immediately afterwards, the spell's effect wore off.
Jimmy didn't sense anything amiss about his conversation with Jiang Shuzhou.
I just added another reminder.
"But even so, surnames aren't as useful as they used to be. Try not to kill anyone, and do whatever else you want."
Jimmy dared to say that because he also had a prestigious surname, though his birth order wasn't as high as Jiang Shuzhou's. However, people's minds are more open now, and they don't care about these things as much anymore.
Otherwise, given Jimmy's recent displeasure with Jiang Shuzhou, he would have been dragged away and beheaded by the others.
"Never mind, take me to see Venus."
Venus, the goddess of love and beauty in mythology, no wonder this place is an art capital.
"Of course, please follow me."
Immediately afterwards, Jimmy led Jiang Shuzhou out.
"Ah, Jack, why, why did you betray me?"
"Ruth, your days of misbehavior are over!"
"The war begins today!"
"Haha, why not have more laughter?"
"Homage to the great playwright!"
As soon as he stepped outside, Jiang Shuzhou was drawn to the lively atmosphere.
The streets were brightly decorated, with numerous stages set up on both sides, where actors were performing energetically, and countless spectators gathered around to watch.
Love and betrayal, war and death, killing and fear.
These are all things that Jiang Shuzhou likes to watch.
"That's really good."
Jiang Shuzhou subconsciously uttered a word of satisfaction.
"You think so too, don't you? You picked a good day. Today is the annual carnival day. The great playwright deliberately allowed people to sing and dance on this day without being shrouded in death."
Jiang Shuzhou nodded, unaware of what was about to happen.
"You shameless scoundrel! I'm going to kill you!"
This was supposed to be a stage performance, but the actor actually pulled out a dagger and stabbed another actor.
Jiang Shuzhou initially thought it was just a prop, but it was clearly not.
With a soft splatter, blood sprayed onto the ground, and the actor slowly collapsed.
"Good! That's how it should be!"
"Haha, that's awesome!"
"Rivers of blood!"
The audience was very excited and showed no reaction, as if it were all perfectly normal.
Immediately afterwards, the killings also began on other stages.
Twisted and insane.
Jiang Shuzhou frowned.
Jimmy, who was standing nearby, was initially puzzled, as he thought everything was perfectly normal. However, upon seeing Jiang Shuzhou's attire, he suddenly realized what was going on.
"It's my fault. The blood here is too dirty. It wouldn't be good if it splattered on you. How about we go to the Grand Theater?"
Jiang Shuzhou nodded in response to Jimmy's question.
He was thinking about a problem.
Based on the number of actors required for this drama, are there enough people?
Or is it just like this today?
Immediately afterward, Jiang Shuzhou understood.
The actor lying in a pool of blood was rapidly recovering; the large hole in his chest was healing at a breakneck speed.
He was alive again very soon.
"I pay my highest respects to the great playwright, who gave us the ability to think and made our lives so rich and colorful. Praise be to the great playwright!"
He then bowed to the audience before leaving the stage to perform for another group.
Now Jiang Shuzhou understood. Jimmy meant exactly what he said: no one would die on this day.
Soon, passing through the bustling, revelry-filled crowds and the artfully designed houses, Jiang Shuzhou and Jimmy arrived in front of an incredibly massive building.
It was a semi-circular building, incredibly huge, with a radius of several kilometers.
There was no door, only a smooth, reflective glass surface.
"This is the Venus Theatre. You can go to see any play you like; just walk through the glass."
With that, Jimmy walked straight into the glass, his body passing through the mirror and disappearing from Jiang Shuzhou's sight.
