Chapter 7 The Juggler(1/2)
There were too many people and couldn't squeeze through, so Lin Jue simply stood on the steps along the street next to him and looked up with his feet.
It's really a trick.
I saw a crowd of people gathering in an open space of two meters square. There was a wooden table on it. In front of the table was a man in a cloth dress, three bowls and a few peach pits, which changed it back and forth in the bowl.
But he was playing the trick of the Three Immortals Returning to the Cave.
There are often applause and speculation from the onlookers around, as if fighting wits with tricksters.
Lin Jue frowned.
He also has some knowledge of this kind of trick, and it is mostly guided by techniques and thinking. The more skilled the technique is, the higher the skills, and at the same time he understands the audience's ideas.
After a closer look, I frowned even more.
If the open space was wide enough, with only one person and one table, and people were surrounded by people from all directions, and this man could still play this game freely, with this world of monsters and magic, Lin Jue also retained some possibility of "this person may be a bit strange on his body". However, the wooden table was placed with his back facing the wall on the street, and there were not many people behind the scenes, and there were a few companions standing behind him, which blocked the positions where the flaws were relatively easy to see.
Lin Jue looked in these directions again.
It is indeed easier to see through the side and behind. Although there are not many people standing there, looking at the expression, it seems that someone has seen some signs.
But maybe I don’t see it very clearly, or maybe I think it’s good that the other party can do this. There is no need to smash someone’s job for no reason, so no one came out to expose it.
Many viewers were excited.
It is usually rare to see such a lively time, and rarely to see such a strange performance.
Lin Jue said nothing and stood up and continued to watch.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a beard covered it with a colorful scarf and turned into a copper basin. The colorful scarf covered it again, and water was turned out from the empty copper basin, and then koi fish turned out.
The audience cheered.
Many people's eyes were wide open and their eyes were shining.
After the colored scarf turned into a fish, it was an empty box to collect the food.
In addition to bringing fruits and vegetables, kittens and puppies, they can also get the things that the audience brought on. Someone asked to pick up the red bellybands from the street widow's house, but they can also get them.
Lin Jue was half-believing and half-doubted, and frowned.
Have hope and patience.
Gradually, time is getting late, the sun is getting higher and higher, and the traffic on the street has reached its peak.
In the open space ahead, the apprentice of the playman knelt on the ground to pick up money. The older playman walked around and said:
"Thank you all for your support. We have been here for enough travel expenses. In the previous performance, we had both real and mysterious skills and hard practice techniques. We thank you for your enthusiastic support, and for some people who have seen through but not said it out. I thank you for your kindness."
He said, holding his fists and saluted.
The onlookers were so excited that they listened to him and heard him speak nicely, so they naturally shouted again, and they started to urge him to have some more beautiful things.
"I didn't have breakfast at first, and I was hungry. I wanted to take a break and eat something to drink. Since the audience wanted to see some good-looking ones, we naturally couldn't help but enjoy the good-looking ones."
After saying that, he waved to the side.
A young man of thirteen or fourteen came over. In this late spring cold season, he only wore a pair of pants, his upper body was so thin that he could see the ribs.
"Dear readers! Those who have money can support money, and those who don't have money can support personal games. I hope this game can make everyone's life more prosperous. The little baby performs few times, so don't let the little baby be ashamed!"
It was still the older trickster who bowed down and spoke.
Something is about it.
The young man didn't say a word. As soon as he ran out, he ran around the open space twice, facing the audience, opening his mouth wide, as if he wanted to show his mouth to everyone.
There is nothing inside.
Then he saw him take out a black meatball, put it in his mouth with malt sugar, chew it, and suddenly he glared at the eyes and vomited it into the air.
"boom……"
A large tent of flames bloomed in the air.
The onlookers were startled, and the warm scene immediately attracted a large number of exclamations and applause.
Lin Jue also had a big accident.
I don’t know what the black meatball is, but even if it is a medicine that can burn, I don’t see anything that can cause fire.
After thinking, Lin Jue quickly went down the stairs and climbed forward.
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze..."
"What are you squeezing?"
"Who is squeezing me?"
"You kid..."
"Borrow it, borrow it."
Passers-by were attracted by the fire and screams, and they needed to separate their hands to protect their backs and medicinal materials, which made Lin Jue work a lot before he squeezed into the middle.
"boom!!"
Another tent of flame exploded in the sky.
The audience around was still excited.
What is a passion?
That's it.
But the performance is coming to an end.
"call……"
The young man seemed very tired, gasped, stopped and looked at the middle-aged man, then looked at the audience around him, without saying a word, and quickly bowed his head and bowed.
Suddenly there was a jingle.
Many people throw money in the middle, or some fruits and vegetables, while others put eggs on the ground and rolled forward.
These days, everything is considered a reward.
However, at this moment, an inappropriate voice sounded next to it:
"After watching it for so long, I finally saw a real-life drama. It's just that such a simple fire-wearing technique was a bit foolish to take it to the temple fair, right?"
His voice was old and he looked contemptuous.
Everyone looked in the voice and saw that it was an old man in a commoner.
"This viewer is..."
The middle-aged trickster couldn't help but bow down tentatively.
"Actually a fellow traveler."
The old man said with a smile.
When the middle-aged trickster heard this, his expression immediately became dark.
The other spectators were stunned for a moment, and then many people showed excited expressions of watching the show.
The atmosphere is already warm, so it goes up to the next level.
"Although as the saying goes, colleagues are enemies. However, when we arrived here, we reported to the local county officials, paid the money, and asked the way, and did not offend anyone or rob anyone's business." The middle-aged trickster thought for a while, and then he said to the old man cautiously, "Sir, this is..."
"You did nothing wrong. I was just a step late for you to come here. When I reported to the government, the adults in the government said that there were already tricks who had already reported to the people who had made plans, paid enough money, and occupied a good position. It happened that there was nothing to do today, so I came to stroll around and happened to meet you." The old man simply walked out and smiled, "I wanted to have a long experience and see what skills other people had, but I never thought about it but didn't see any powerful skills."
His tone was quite helpless, and it seemed that he had no malice.
Even after saying that, he sighed:
"This person is old and talks a lot. If he has something in his heart, he can't hold it in his mouth, so he spoke."
The middle-aged trickster's face was gloomy and gloomy. After looking at the spectators around him, he had to take back his hand and say, "I said we are not powerful enough. It seems that the old senior has something to advise me!"
"The advice is not enough. What you performed just now can make me admire is just this hand-hazard technique. But this little kid is practicing, but it's just an introduction."
As soon as he finished speaking, the young man who was performing just now looked around, lowered his head and played with his hands, and was at a loss.
"The old senior is right..."
The middle-aged trickster originally lowered his posture in front of the onlookers and was extremely polite and acted miserably. He was like an artist who was very good at speaking. At this time, he couldn't help but calm his face:
"It's just that my child is still young, what does a little baby know? Senior, don't be ashamed of him. Liu has also practiced this fire-loving technique for many years, so he asked the senior to help him to see the heat."
Upon hearing this, the onlookers immediately started to cheer.
Lin Jue also became more interested.
The middle-aged man also opened the clay pot and took a black meatball, added malt sugar, put it in his mouth and chewed it. At the same time, someone beat the drums and drums behind him.
"Dongkang!"
With a sound of drums and cymbals, the middle-aged trickster just raised his head and suddenly spoke up.
"boom!"
But it was not a flame that exploded in the sky, but a straight pillar of fire that rushed straight into the sky, at least two or three feet long.
To be continued...
