Mountains and seas have a return period

The children's show for the children of the deaf-mute school was "The Wizard of Oz", in which Fang Yaolai played the much-anticipated role of Dorothy, and Gu Tiao played the role of the Tin Woodman.

Gu Tiao thought in his heart that this role was very good.During a month of rehearsals, she faced Fang Yaolai day and night, forcing herself not to pay attention to Fang Yaolai, who was shining brightly even in the rehearsal room, and focused on being a tin man who had no feelings for herself.

It's just... Gu Tiao looked at the corner of the rehearsal room, his heart itching like ten thousand ants crawling over.

Fang Ling's water cup was placed there.

During the rehearsal break, Fang wandered profusely in sweat, without even looking at the water glass, just picked it up and poured it into his mouth.

Only Gu Tiao who was on the side noticed that the water glass was already empty.

Fang Yaolai wanted to drink water, but at the same time kept talking to the director, digging out a stage scheduling detail.He raised his head and poured the water glass into his mouth for a long time. When he came to the critical point, he put the water glass away in a hurry and walked away with the director.

Gu Tiao wasn't even sure if Fang Yaolai knew that she didn't drink water.

But... Gu Tiao sneaked a glance at the beads of sweat on Fang Yaolai's forehead, fearing that if she endured like this, her body would become dehydrated.

The next day, Gu Tiao brought a 2L large-capacity outdoor thermal water bottle to the rehearsal room, and the actor who played the Cowardly Lion who walked in with her was startled: "We are The Wizard of Oz, not Survival in the Wild!"

Gu Tiao laughed: "I'm trying to lose weight, so I need to drink more hot water!"

From this day on, Fang Ling's water glass has never been empty again.It's just that every time Fang Yao came to drink water, he was in a hurry, either arranging arrangements with the director, or discussing the details of the performance with the actors.

Gu Tiao was also not sure if Fang Yaolai found out that her water glass was never empty again.

Late at night, Gu Tiao returned to the dormitory with an empty 2L water bottle. Ling Yue, who was writing study notes, raised her head and looked at her with a complicated expression.

Gu Tiao hurriedly said: "I didn't say a word to her, I didn't want to let myself fall into it."

Ling Yue said angrily: "Yes, yes, you just want to be a snail girl with deep merit and fame."

Stupid or not?Looking at Gu Tiao's back, Ling Yue sighed inwardly.

****************************************

A month later, backstage on the stage, Gu Tiao, who had put on tin man makeup, suddenly felt his heart beating and he was very nervous.

She opened a small corner of the curtain and secretly looked down the stage. Hundreds of deaf-mute children, led by the sign language teacher, took their seats quietly.

Gu Tiao has never experienced such a quiet dance

Stand.

Fang Yaolai, who had put on Dorothy's makeup, had two retro centipede braids hanging on her shoulders, a crocheted round-neck white shirt and a light blue retro plaid skirt, giving her a rare girlish look.

Gu Tiao looked at it in a daze: What a bragging about the goddess Bai Yueguang at the same table!They were all girls who had never seen Fang Yao before!

Fang Yao came to ask Gu Tiao, "Are you nervous?"

Gu Tiao nodded: "A little bit."

Fang Ling glanced at Gu Tiao, but did not comfort her.At this time, the director asked Fang Yao to come over to confirm the final stage lighting effect, and Fang Yao came and hurried away.

Gu Tiao felt a little lost in his heart, and then he thought again: I will also be a professional actor in the future, maybe Fang Ling came here to let me learn to face various stages and learn to adjust my mentality.

Cheerful and fantastic music sounded, and Fang Lian, who was dressed as a girl, spun around on the stage and got the pair of ruby ​​​​shoes on the feet of the witch who was crushed to death by the wooden house rolled up by the tornado.

Gu Tiao, who had no role in the first half, was still hiding behind the curtain, secretly observing the silent auditorium under the stage.

A group of deaf-mute children less than 10 years old obviously still have the most sincere childlike innocence. They followed Fang Yaolai's performance. When the witch was killed by the fall, she was afraid at first, but then she was glad when she found out the witch's evil identity, and she was even more delighted when she got the ruby ​​shoes on the witch's feet.

Fang Linglai's performance took the deaf-mute children out of the daily gray and white world, and entered a magical fairy tale kingdom.

Gu Tiao deliberately didn't look at Fang Yaolai's expression, the changes in the expressions of the children in the audience were enough for her to fully understand the direction of the plot.

After watching for a while, the assistant director came over and patted Gu Tiao on the shoulder: "The Tin Woodman is ready to play."

Gu Tiao nodded, took a deep breath, walked onto the stage, and walked to Fang Yaolai's side.

Under the blazing stage lights, Fang Lianlai's smile was as innocent as a girl Dorothy's, and her eyes shone like the brightest stars on the stage.

Gu Tiao was deeply shocked - this is Fang Yaolai's charm, and it is also the charm of a really good actor.

After entering his own performance, Gu Tiao couldn't care less about watching the reactions of the small audience off the stage, until the Tin Woodman played by Gu Tiao accidentally touched the water and found that his joints were rusted and he couldn't move——Gu Tiao stared Big eyes, slightly parted lips, showing an expression of extreme surprise.

At this time, in the auditorium under the stage, there was the sound of chairs being moved.

"It's weird." Gu Tiao thought to himself, but her professionalism as an actor still allowed her to concentrate and immerse herself in the plot of her performance.

"Ahh." A deaf-mute child yelled impatiently, followed by a whisper of comfort from the teacher.

But the teacher failed to persuade the child, and then there was another rustling sound. It sounded like the teacher was leading the child away from the auditorium.

Then, there was a louder movement, and the teachers whispered continuously, but the sound of the chairs being moved did not stop.

Gu Tiao couldn't take it anymore.

She turned her head and looked towards the auditorium.The blazing lights of the stage hurt her eyes, but the degree of pain was far less than the constantly vacant seats in the auditorium——

Many children got impatient and made a fuss in advance, so the teachers had to take them out of the auditorium in advance.

Gu Tiao couldn't believe what made them impatient - it was her own performance.

Gu Tiao froze on the stage.Beside her, Fang Yaolai spoke in a louder voice than usual, saying her own lines: "There is no place like home."

Fang Ling's voice finally brought Gu Tie back to his senses for a while.Fortunately, Fang Yaolai is an experienced actor, as are the other fourth-year acting students on the stage. Driven by them, this "Wizard of Oz" children's play finally came to an end without any danger.

Under the reassurance of the teachers, the remaining deaf-mute children finally sat down until the end of the performance.Led by the teachers, there was sparse applause at the scene.

Gu Tiao hardly knew how he got backstage.

The other actors left after taking off their makeup. The school teacher came backstage. Fang wandered back and forth. He didn't know what to say to the teacher in a low voice. The teacher nodded and walked away again.

In the narrow dressing room backstage, only Fang Linglai and Gu Tiao were left.

Gu Tiao sat blankly, recalling everything she had just experienced in her mind - Fang Yaolai's performance made her know the magic of performance, not only allowing actors to experience so many different lives for themselves, but also providing For everyone watching this performance, open a window and take them to see a colorful world that is completely different from the gloomy daily life.

This window may not be worth mentioning to ordinary people, but for some people—such as this group of deaf-mute children, it is what they have longed for.

Gu Tiao thought about his own performance again, but in an instant, the children were out of the act, and had to leave early from the strange and interesting fairy tale country, and return to the gray daily life early.

Gu

Tiao's mind was buzzing, and she couldn't face what she had done.

Fang Ling dragged a chair, sat across from Gu Tiao, and said to her with a serious expression, "Do you know why?"

Gu Tiao shook his head blankly.

Fang Xuan said: "Your performance is not a car accident. If it was an ordinary stage, you might have fooled it. But they are different."

Gu Tiao still didn't understand, Fang Yao came to look into Gu Tiao's eyes: "Because they are a group of deaf-mute children. The lack of some senses makes their hearts more sensitive, and they can see through the hypocrisy in the performance at a glance. gone."

Gu Tiao's eye circles turned red all of a sudden, Fang Yaolai obviously didn't intend to save face for Gu Tiao: "Your performance is all about skill, without sincerity, you can't fool them, and they will naturally let you down."

Fang Linglai stood up suddenly, and at the same time said to Gu Tiao, "You stand up too."

Gu Tiao stood up in a daze, Fang Yaolai gently took Gu Tiao's hand, and walked to a small open space that was not piled up with debris.

Suddenly, Fang Yao's gentle face turned fierce, and he threw away Gu Tiao's hand suddenly, and pushed Gu Tiao to the ground with his hands.

Gu Tiao was completely unprepared, and was extremely surprised, thinking that he would fall badly, until his body touched the floor, only to realize that Fang Yao's strength and angle were well controlled, making her fall in an exaggerated manner. But it won't really hurt and hurt.

"Understood?" Fang Yao asked aloud.

Gu Tiao lay on the floor, staring blankly at Fang Yaolai.

"Remember the expression on your face just now, remember how your muscles moved and exerted force. That is the surprise. Your staring and opening your mouth are just imitations, not performances, and cannot resonate with any child."

Fang Linglai stood in front of Gu Tiao, looked down at her, and said in a harsh tone that she rarely faced Gu Tiao, "If you treat acting with this attitude and method, if you don't really want to act, then ...Give up as soon as possible."

Gu Tiao was taken aback again.

Do you really want to act?Do you really love acting?To be honest, before being slapped in the face on the stage this time, Gu Tiao hadn't seriously thought about this issue.

Before that, she worked desperately to get into the Z drama and learn acting skills, but it was because Fang Yaolai liked acting, and she just wanted to get closer to Fang Yaolai.

After entering the Z theater, Gu Tiao took classes for more than half a year. The obedient character she cultivated since she was a child never came in late or left early. middle.

But the core of the performance, she never really thought about it, and never really touched it.

Gu Tiao lay on the floor in a daze, not getting up in a hurry.Because at this time, her brain was filled with the expressions of the children watching Fang Yao come to perform: horrified, grateful, scared, and happy...

"I want to act...um."

Gu Tiao opened his eyes wide in surprise——

Before she could finish her sentence, a soft touch pressed her lips.

It was Fang Yaolai who leaned down, propped his hands on the ground, knelt on his knees, approached Gu Tiao who was lying on the ground, and kissed Gu Tiao's petite face.

In the empty and quiet dressing room, Gu Tiao felt that his "thump, thump" heartbeat was amplified very loudly.She thought: Fang Yaolai must have heard it.

Gu Tiao had fantasized about the kiss countless times on the bed in the dormitory where everyone was sleeping, in the corner of the playground where no one was there, every time he saw and didn't see Fang Yaolai.

She had imagined that Fang Linglai's lips would be soft, but she never thought that they would be this soft.With a quiet fragrance, Gu Tiao's heart can be turned into a puddle of water with just a light kiss.

Fang Ling came to prop up his body, and looked at Gu Tiao with a half-smile: "Remember your expression at this time, remember the direction and method of muscle exertion. This...is another kind of surprise."

Seeing Gu Tiao's unrepentant expression, Fang Linglai's smile became softer and softer, and asked Gu Tiao softly, "So... do you really want to act?"

Gu Tiao blankly said the sentence that was cut off by Fang Yaolai's soft lips just now: "I want to act. I want to act with you..."

Fang Yao smiled and asked, "Who am I?"

Gu Tiao blushed a little, and whispered, "Sister Xiaoyou."

"Wrong." Fang Xuanlai raised the corners of his mouth: "Since I teach you acting, shouldn't you have a new title and identity?"

Fang Linglai bent down his soft waist again, and with his delicate and handsome nose, gently scratched the tip of Gu Tiao's small nose.

Gu Tiao's face became even redder: "Xiao... Teacher Xiao Fang?"

Fang Lian gave a chuckle, propped himself up, then stood up, clapped his hands: "Let's go."

Seeing that Gu Tiao was still lying on the floor in a daze, Fang Yaolai stretched out his slender hand in a funny way, and pulled Gu Tiao up: "The half hour of teaching you to perform is something I just won with the teacher, don't leave , the schools are going to be closed.”

Under the warm setting sun, Fang Yaolai was in front and Gu Tiao was behind, the shadows of the two standing side by side were stretched very long by the halo of the setting sun.

Walking to the gate of the school for the deaf and dumb, there was a clear whistle, and it rang lightly.

Gu Tiao took a closer look and saw that it was Huo Wenhao who was driving the car and parked at the school gate waiting for the two of them.

Fang Yao came to explain: "This school is in the suburbs, it's too far away, I'm afraid I won't be able to take a taxi."

Fang Yaolai took Gu Tiao and got into the car, Huo Wenhao greeted Gu Tiao with a smile: "Long time no see, last time Fang Yu asked me about you."

Fang Yu asked Huo Wenhao about himself?When Gu Tiao heard this, his heart ached - it turned out that Huo Wenhao often went to Fang Yu's farm.It turned out that Huo Wenhao and Fang Yaolai had already gotten so close.

It turned out that Fang Linglai just wanted to teach himself how to perform.

Gu Tiao looked at the backs of Huo Wenhao and Fang Lianlai in the front seat who were chatting happily, and felt that it was particularly dazzling, so he turned his head silently and looked out the car window.

Just now, the setting sun, which I thought was extraordinarily warm in my eyes, now looks like the prelude to nightfall, dazzlingly red and desolately red.

The author has something to say: Fang Damowang: (proud and chest out) Today is another day to make sacrifices for the cause of teaching~=v=
