Chapter 2757 Swan Song (5)

A long time ago, there lived a young farmer named Henry in the village. He was very handsome and was the envy of many girls in the village.

But he has no interest in the girls around him, because he always fantasizes about being a knight. He wants to defeat the devil and save the princess cursed by the devil. Then he will win the princess's heart and marry her.

Such fantasies always lingered and eventually became Henry's goal in life. His father originally wanted to find a suitable girl for Henry to start a family, but Henry did not want to marry a girl from the village. All he could think about was beautiful princesses.

His parents were very angry and the people around him didn't understand, so Henry left his hometown to find the princess in his dream.

He sang beautiful songs along the way, passing through the golden fields, and finally heard the beautiful singing beside a pond.

He walked over following the sound and saw a beautiful girl feeding the goose with bread crumbs in her hand.

"She must be a princess." Henry thought, "Because only princesses have so many beautiful singing voices."

He was so entranced by what he heard that he didn't pay attention to the road.

"oops!"

Henry lowered his head and found that he had stepped on the hand of a water monster.

"Watch the road, kid!"

"I'm sorry." Henry quickly apologized to the water demon.

The water demon rubbed his webbed hands and continued to listen to the girl singing.

"Who is she?" Henry asked the water monster.

"She is the miller's daughter, Eliza."

"She's not a princess?" Henry said a little disappointed.

"Even if she is not a princess, she is more lovable than any princess. She is hardworking, kind, simple and beautiful." The water demon said proudly.

Henry was a little disappointed because he was looking for a princess, but he was still willing to stay because it was getting dark and he needed a place to stay.

Perhaps because of Henry's handsome appearance, Eliza let down her guard and persuaded her father to allow him to live there.

The miller said to Henry, "You can live here, but you have to transport the wheat from the top of the mill down first."

"Okay, sir." Henry said cheerfully. Although he loved to dream, he was a hard-working and sensible young man. The wages for carrying the wheat could be considered as the cost of his stay.

Then Henry reached the top of the mill, carrying sack after sack of wheat as he was so weak.

"Don't move!" Just when Henry was about to move another bag of wheat, a deep voice said, "This is mine."

"I'm sorry, I don't think this belongs to you." Henry said into the darkness.

"I said, this place belongs to me!"

"This place belongs to the miller."

As soon as Henry finished speaking, a little devil jumped out of the darkness.

"Don't think that I don't know what you want to do!" The little devil shook his tail and said, "Get out!"

Henry is fearless from the threat of the little devil.

"You said you know what I want to do? Tell me and listen!" Henry said easily.

"You want this mill and Elisa." the little devil said viciously.

"You are wrong, I want to marry a princess."

The little devil looked at him strangely, and after a moment he showed an unpleasant smile.

"How long are you going to live here?" asked the little devil.

"Leave tomorrow morning," Henry said.

"It's a deal," the little devil said.

Henry did not answer the little devil, he would not make a contract with the devil.

But the little devil felt that he had agreed, and slowly retreated into the darkness.

Without any obstacles, Henry quickly emptied the wheat from the roof of the mill and cleared out the residence.

During dinner in the evening, the miller saw that Henry was diligent and quick in doing things, so he wanted him to stay, but Henry politely declined because he wanted to continue looking for the princess.

This made Eliza very sad. At night, with a new moon hanging in the sky, Henry sang by the pond.

Alyssa was attracted by the singing and couldn't help but be moved in her heart, but he was leaving the next day, so Alyssa came up with an idea.

She told Henry that her godmother had told her that there was a cursed princess living in this pond, and she would only appear on full moon nights.

"Really?" Henry asked excitedly.

Alyssa nodded firmly, so Henry stayed, planning to find his destined marriage on a full moon night.

The little devil overheard their conversation. He was afraid that his beloved Elisa would be snatched away by the bad boy, so he tried his best to drive Henry away.

So at night, after Henry lay down and fell asleep, the little devil came to him...

"Very good!!!"

As soon as the violin played, the audience began to applaud enthusiastically.

Even if you don't understand music, you can tell that the musicians are highly skilled just by listening to their wildly dancing performances.

In fact, "The Devil's Vibrato" is the same as the Queen of the Night in "The Magic Flute". It is very suitable for showing off skills. It contains a lot of decorative sounds. The "vibrato" itself is a sound effect that requires flexible vibrating of the fingers, which can express

It gives a sense of breadth, but when two alternating tones appear, if the finger control is not good enough, the tone will appear uneven, and the beautiful vibrato will turn into a terrifying noise.

Tartini's music score has always been famous for being difficult to perform. Some people say that this piece of music is impossible to perform manually. Unless the performer, like the composer, sold his soul to the devil.

Georgiana applauded along with the others. The young man who appeared midway and stole the spotlight from DuBoer bowed in all directions, with a proud and proud smile on his face.

"Madam, do you want him to come over?" Ludrell asked.

"I'm tired," Georgiana said coldly, exiting while the others focused their attention on the young man.

She could feel several eyes following her, but she had no intention of turning around to look.

She is not Rohart. With so much time, he has to reply to every letter from readers, and even invites Harry Potter to reply.

In the 21st century, Pomona went to Venice, when the carnival was over, and the depression and loneliness of the end of the show were everywhere.

But the Venice Carnival in the 18th century lasted for six months, and the French Carnival lasted another way for a whole year.

Compared with Paris and Versailles, the castles and mansions in the provinces are the real "pastoral dramas" where hosts and guests improvise various "pastoral dramas". The actors sometimes dress up as angels, mythical monsters, and sometimes as villagers.

Milkmaid, girl with rose crown.

They are far away from public spaces with strong sunlight and various moral constraints. Any normal person who witnesses them will say that these gatherings are indecent.

Once, the young and charming Duchess of Bourbon took the nobles and their ladies to Chantilly. In the newly built Arcin Garden, the ladies were told that someone was going to kidnap them to the Turkish harem, so they disguised themselves as Vesta.

The Virgin and the "High Priest" led them to the temple in the center of the garden with beautiful songs. At this time, 300 "Turks" came outside. They broke into the garden wall amidst the sound of music and chased those who screamed loudly.

The "virgins".

There was wine spraying from the fountain, and various meats from hunting were placed on the table. "People" completely gave up themselves and pursued extreme pleasure.

The Marquis de Sade, who was once imprisoned in the Bastille, had a castle in Laxte. His diary recorded the life of this type of person. In contrast, another "Love Guide" also wrote some sentences worth pondering.

, such as "Men don't pay for women, they just want to get happiness from them."

However, this kind of pure happiness ceases to be happiness over time. In the end, it always makes people feel a little empty, as if something is missing.

Rousseau's articles are like a sudden taste of strong wine after a long taste of candied fruit, which can suddenly awaken the numb and dull senses.

When Georgiana returned to the ballroom, people were waltzing, and although it was still some time before the real night, people were already wearing various masks, as if they were the necessities they carried with them.

Georgiana also wore one, which was not as meaningful as the mask she bought in Venice. It was just a black lace mask, but she wore very bright red lipstick.

When the double doors opened, people bowed to her in accordance with etiquette and procedures at first, but when she walked past, their eyes widened in surprise.

"Once upon a time" there was a princess who had a husband who was not so loyal and kept breaking her heart, so one day she gave up the modest dress required by the royal family and put on a little black dress that represented revenge.

The Vicomte de Vermont later died together with Madame Medais. Madam Medais lost the good reputation she had built for many years. She always held other people's handles, which made her invincible. No one wanted to go against her will. , all have to think about the consequences once she leaks the information.

Because it was too difficult to seduce his 15-year-old fiancée who had just graduated from the convent, Vermont chose to "raise the stakes" and challenge Madame Duvel, who was known for her chastity. He told Madam Medei everything that happened between him and Madame Duvel. , and after he succeeded, he asked Mrs. Medi for a "reward". He did not notice that Mrs. Medi's face had become increasingly ugly as he narrated.

After all, women are more perceptive than men. She can detect things that men cannot, although men usually think that she is suspicious.

When Narcissa Malfoy was desperate, she thought of Severus Snape and came to Spider-End Alley, which she had never been to.

She could understand Narcissa's mood, just like she understood her own mood and Alice's mood. But this "understanding" did not make her become tolerant and understanding, but instead made her even more angry.

In anger, she made a decision that she would probably regret in the future, but since she decided not to suppress herself that day and stop being the "wise man" who "is not jealous and will make wiser choices" , she is what she is now.

"Where is my champagne?" Georgiana walked to the middle of the crowd and asked the people around her.

The men and women looked at her with different expressions, some were full of condemnation, and some had ambiguous smiles on their faces.

She "improved" Bertin's design. The front of the skirt was still a conservative Greek style, and the back of the skirt was opened below the waist, exposing the entire back, as if to tempt people to put their hands in.
