my backyard farm [system]

Guan Tong opened the group chat, scrolled forward, and scrolled to the latest unread.

[Village Chief Lin Jianmo: @全球人员, the puppet troupe who once performed "The Legend of Li Chun" will perform in the village tonight, and the fee will be paid by the village department!The performance time is around [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] pm. Those who want to come have dinner first, and then watch the puppet show! 】

Everyone in the group started talking about the sudden performance, the older ones were fans of Mr. Li, and the younger ones also saw the puppet show.

Guan Tong understood that this matter could not be separated from Lan Yu's promotion. He excitedly gave Lan Yu a hug, then ran to Mr. Li, gesticulated with dancing, and sent messages from the villagers in the group looking forward to the puppet show. Turn it out.

Mr. Li couldn't stop his tears from excitement, his hand holding Guan Tong was shaking, and he confirmed again and again that it was not a joke, and that someone was really waiting for them to perform.

"This... how embarrassing it is. In this way, we old men still have some savings, so we will pay for the venue fee this time."

Guan Tong felt that his cheeks were sour, and shook his head heavily, "It's normal for us to pay you for the performance where you need to pay for the venue!"

"Everyone remembers the fact that you brought your team to the village for free to perform in the past, but now we can't let you perform for free again. That high-pitched and melodious female voice."

"Leaving that member's family, I don't wash my face with tears every day, I feel so happy~~~"

Guan Tong and Mr. Li sang in unison, but Guan Tong sang with his voice hoarse and unpleasant.

What Mr. Li sang was a lively and cheerful female voice, and the word "Yah" was elongated and mellow, which was enough to express the girl's joyful mood after leaving the cannibal's house.

"Your voice hasn't changed at all! It's still so melodious, and your kung fu hasn't lost at all." Guan Tong applauded excitedly and started blowing rainbow farts.

Mr. Li coughed uncomfortably, and Lin Sheng, who was standing next to Guan Tong, handed him a bottle of mineral water, which he just got out of the car.

"Oh, I'm old after all, my voice is not as good as before."

Mr. Li drank a few sips of water, suppressed the nausea in his chest, looked at the young man who looked forward to him, and his heart suddenly became clear. Since someone invited him, why put on airs, just go.

Mr. Li looked at the messages of surprise or expectation from the villagers of Linjia Village in the group, as if he had eaten a mouthful of hot, sweet and fragrant roasted sweet potatoes in the winter, warming his chest to his stomach, "Old man Guan, your grandson is a good man!" of."

Guan Lao nodded sincerely: "Well, my little grandson is very good, my son is as cheating as your son, just ignore it."

Thinking of his eldest grandson who was studying abroad, Mr. Li felt that what old man Guan said made some sense. If his son grows crooked, forget it. The eldest grandson is still a good one.

Putting away other thoughts, Mr. Li closed his eyes and opened them again. His eyes were filled with the vigor of his youth, "The show continues! Since there are audiences, let's do it!"

"Act! Even if only one person is an audience!"

"Old Li, you finally think about it!"

"Let's go, let's go to the show!"

The six elderly people, all of whom are almost [-] years old together, cheered and stepped forward to give Mr. Li a high-five, and then got into the car as the young man arranged.

Everyone became nervous after getting in the car, took out the script book from their pockets, muttered the lines in their mouths, and checked with the companion next to them whether they remembered correctly.

Mr. Li's singing surprised Que Ganhua and Zhou Kong, especially Que Ganhua. Since there were still three puppeteers in the back seat who were talking to each other, they held it in their hearts for the time being.

On the way, Lan Yu received a call from the village chief. When she picked up the phone, she saw the nervous expressions of the old people in the back seat through the rearview mirror. She really accidentally turned on the speaker, "Uncle Village Chief."

"Have you set off yet?" The village head's loud voice echoed in the car.

Lan Yu: "It's already on the way."

"Okay, you go directly to the village committee at the entrance of the village, everything is ready, and I will wait for you."

Lan Yu touched Ah Hu who was still disgusted with the smell of durian on his body, and said with a smile, "It will take about 10 minutes."

"Okay, stay safe."

At seven o'clock, before it was dark, huge searchlights hung high on the square in front of the Linjia Village Committee.

10 minutes is fast in Lan Yu's eyes, but it seems like years with Mr. Li. It was not until Lan Yu helped him out of the car and faced the simple and enthusiastic faces full of expectations that his heart fell to the ground.

The puppet show is not just pretending to be a ghost for no one to watch!

As long as you are still alive, if you can act, someone will watch it.

Mr. Li felt boundless pride in his heart, and felt that he could act like his master until he grew old.

But thinking of the medical certificate two months ago, it felt like a basin of ice water had been poured into her heart, and she completely calmed down.

Shutdown... right...

Mr. Li took a deep breath, and took the initiative to chat with a few familiar old people. The village head ordered the strong young and middle-aged men to help carry the equipment.

Mr. Li still wanted to do it himself, but was stopped by the smiling old man in the village, "Old rules, you bring your own equipment for the performance, and we will help you set up the stage. The rules can't be broken."

"Old Li, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, are your skills okay?"

"Don't everyone say that you have worked hard for 1 minute on stage and [-] years off stage, so don't get out of tune when you make a sound later."

The old people who had a little friendship with Mr. Li joked one after another.

Mr. Li didn't want to hear that his skills were not good, so he poked his neck and glared: "Who can't do it! Let me show you right now."

As he was talking, he was about to carry the puppet for a while, but was interrupted by the branch secretary. The branch secretary spoke to the village head and took the old people to the backstage to set up. Not hungry."

Lan Yu watched as Mr. Li, who was more angry than in front of the nursing home, was dragged away by the branch secretary, and replied, "I'm not hungry. It doesn't take long to set up the stage. The performance takes half an hour, and it won't be eight o'clock until the performance is over."

The village head looked up at the sky, "There are still some radish dumplings in the kitchen of the village committee, you can put them on the bar first."

Lan Yu didn't like glutinous rice balls and refused. Que Ganhua and Lin Sheng went to find Que Yanshu. Guan Tong was hungry, so he took Zhou Kong to the kitchen and brought out a big bowl.

There are so many people and strength, Guan Tong only eats half of the glutinous rice balls, and the stage has already been set up.

Zhou Kong struggled to eat the salty glutinous rice balls boiled with shredded white radish. After half a day, he only ate two. There was no way. For him, the taste was too strange.

"Boom boom~"

A gong rang.

Everyone found a seat according to their preferences. Lan Yu and the three were dragged by the village chief to sit in the second row. After a while, they saw Que Yanshu and his son, Lin Sheng and others coming to sit in the first row.Lan Yu happened to be sitting behind Que Ganhua.

Lan Yu looked around, but none of the children under the age of thirteen or fourteen came, and the ones who came were all teenagers who had started smoking, and most of them were not very interested in looking around.

On the contrary, the uncles and aunts whispered excitedly, Lan Yu had good ears, and could hear Sister Zhou and Luo Xiaoxiang chatting about how they fell into the pit halfway home in the dark after watching the puppet show when they were young.

"Dong Dong Bang"

After everyone was seated, another gong sounded to remind the audience that the show was about to begin.

Lan Yu looked up and saw that the stage was higher than the eyes of the sitting audience. On both sides and in the middle of the black cloth on the top was a rectangular frame, which was a strong steel frame.

There are window curtains on both sides of the steel frame, and lights on the top to illuminate the entire stage. Inside is a replaceable background board, which is made of thin wooden boards and is now stuck in the slots on both sides in order.

It was getting dark at this moment, and the lights on the square were turned on in the distance, and everyone's eyes could not help but focus on the stage.

Lan Yu recalled the background setting of the puppet show he had seen.

The two sides and the top of the stage are connected. The black cloth in front covers the puppet masters behind. They control the string puppets in their hands to enter and exit from both sides. The white transparent silk thread is almost invisible under the light and distance.

The puppet master holds two special copper sticks in his left and right hands, and the copper sticks are tied with silk threads connecting the joints and eyes of the puppet at certain intervals.

The rich and solemn voice began to announce:

[Liao Zhai New Edition - Author Monkey Huanxi - Adapted from Li Jiaban]

"Dong Dong Qiang!"

Another gong sounded.

Lan Yu's eyes were focused on the stage, watching a male puppet in dark gray coarse linen clothes slowly stepping in from the right. As the puppet master flicked the silk thread on the copper rod, the puppet made a gesture of raising his feet and waving his hands, When he walked to a third of the stage, he turned his head to look at the audience and bowed his hands to the audience.

A clear young voice followed Wang Sheng's gesture of saluting: "I am Wang Sheng. I was late because of something, and now I am going home at night."

Wang Sheng walked to the stage, the background behind him was black woods, the background sound was a bit quieter, Wang Sheng staggered two steps on the spot, and said in fear: "It's dark, I'm afraid."

Lan Yu: "Pfft..."

Que Ganhua sat in front and didn't hold back: "Pfft..."

"it is good!"

On the contrary, the villagers applauded because of Wang Sheng's lifelike movements and demeanor. Some excited ones started to applaud, but they stopped soon and continued to watch the play.

Lan Yu turned around, and the people behind him were divided into two types, divided by his age:

Those who are older than him are basically excited and enthusiastic like star fans, excited by Wang Sheng's monologues and actions on the stage.

Most of the younger ones looked blank, not knowing what the elders in their own family were applauding. This puppet show looked strange, but the two-dimensional paper figures were more beautiful.

Lan Yu ignored the plot of the sand sculpture, and focused on the control of the puppets and the dubbing and music behind the scenes, and gradually began to applaud.

With a gloomy background sound of the wind,

"It's dark and windy this night, so there shouldn't be any goblins!"

Wang Sheng on the stage made a trembling expression and moved forward cautiously. At this moment, a fairy in white feathers suddenly descended from the sky.

The fairy landed in front of Wang Sheng, walked around pretty and lively, and greeted delicately: "Little vixen, I have seen the prince~"

"Pfft!" Lan Yu recognized it was Mr. Li's voice, and couldn't help admiring, the fake voice is really awesome!

Wang Sheng stretched out his hand and pointed at the vixen tremblingly, "You~~~~"

Because the puppet's facial expression cannot be changed, it is up to the puppet master who is behind the voice to convey the emotions of the characters at the moment.

The two people on the stage were tempted back and forth, and finally when the beautiful girl who claimed to be a vixen seemed to be about to abduct Wang Sheng into the background of a ruined temple——

Just now, Wang Sheng, who was timid and easy to fool, took advantage of the woman's unpreparedness, and cut the woman back to the ground.

"Hey, I caught you," Wang Sheng's tone changed, and he said righteously: "After squatting for a month, I finally got you out!"

Lan Yu stared dumbfounded at the sudden turn of the plot, abruptly changing from a legend of Liaozhai to the male lead of Liaozhai cracking down on fakes online.

After the vixen who wanted to dance with an immortal, there also appeared a red-clothed female ghost who tricked the male lead into buying insurance, and a master who wanted to kidnap the male lead to cultivate immortality...

Lan Yu only knew that the plot was a bit sandy, but she didn't expect to be sandy to this extent.

He turned his head and looked around in a daze. Guan Tong, Zhou Kong, and Que Ganhua were also dumbfounded, but the village head and other villagers watched with great interest. He even heard an uncle behind him say that this puppet show is good and educational. Know to bring the children to see.

Lan Yu: "..."

While Lan Yu was amused in her heart, she was sad at the same time, why is the puppet show so lonely now.

One is because the repertoire cannot keep up with the times.

The second is that their performance forms have limitations.

The third is that people nowadays don’t need…

One or two can be changed, just like what Mr. Li is performing now, you can follow the script, but the third is the key point.

In an era when there was not much entertainment, transportation was not convenient, and information was not developed enough, puppet troupes walking from village to household were the only way for people to entertain.

Nowadays, movies, TV series, anime, animation, online drama, short video, live variety show, only you can't think of entertainment that you can't find.

It's because the mobile phone is not fun, the sand sculpture netizens on the Internet are not funny enough, or the stories performed by the actors in the movie are not exciting enough.

After all, the protagonist of a puppet show is carved out of wood, with a single expression and stiff limbs. He needs to be manipulated by a puppeteer to perform, and his facial features can only move his eyelashes.What's more, it takes countless time and energy to become a qualified puppeteer.

In the fast-paced era, time is very precious, and people don't want to wait and can't afford to wait.

At this moment on the stage, Wang Sheng changed into a handsome young man and started fighting with the master. Since the puppets are all controlled by silk threads, the puppet master needs to pay attention to the silk threads when fighting, otherwise the puppet will not look good and will be booed. Still knotted, that's a performance accident.

Lan Yu noticed that after the fight, some of the teenagers who had looked like this just now had already started recording with their mobile phones, and whispered to their friends in a low voice.

"This is amazing. They are made to move around with silk thread? The eyes can still move!"

"It's so awesome, I don't believe that someone is hanging on it with a string!"

"Hurry up and start recording. When school starts, I will open my classmates' eyes!"

"My God, do you think Uncle Lan Yu will hang puppets too?"

Lan Yu and the others questioned inwardly: "Huh?"

"The puppets in Uncle Lan Yu's house are more exquisite|real|realistic than these. I don't even believe that Uncle Lan Yu doesn't know this skill."

"Uncle Lan Yu... probably not, I haven't seen him perform before."

"You don't understand. Uncle Lan Yu may be the kind of big boss, super big boss, who doesn't go out of the mountain easily, and scares people to death when he comes out of the mountain."

……

The boys and girls are still nagging, if the black lines can be visualized, Lan Yu's head will be covered with black lines.

Why doesn't he know that he is also a puppet master, or a big boss?Still scaring people to death when you go out of the mountain?

Lan Yu put Ahu in his arms on his head. Ahu understood, and covered Lan Yu's ears with his paws, helping to shield the more and more outrageous guesses of the two-year-old boys and girls behind him.

He tried his best to concentrate on the stage, when suddenly he heard Wang Sheng's voice-over, Mr. Xie groaned almost imperceptibly, as if caused by pain.

Lan Yu stood up silently, patted Guan Tong on the shoulder, handed Ahu to him, and walked to the backstage while squatting halfway so as not to interfere with other people's sight.

Mr. Li and Mr. Xie stood with their backs to Lan Yu. Mr. Xie was not tall enough for the bench. He was standing on the bench at the moment, with his hands raised high, ten fingers cooperating with twisting and shaking, controlling Wang Sheng to defeat the master.

Lan Yu looked around the small backstage. The soundtrack of Li's class was all played live, Xiao, Tonggong Erhu and Guzheng, etc. Three old people were in charge of the soundtrack, and the other three were in charge of the front stage performance.

In the car, the old man lamented that several old partners had already left. It is said that when the Li family class was grand, there were dozens of people playing in the background, and there were many puppet masters waiting to take the stage. Now, there are only three The pianist, according to the arranged script, uses various instruments in turn to make music for the front desk.

Lan Yu's eyes focused on Mr. Xie. When people get old, their backs will bend. At this moment, Mr. Xie's back is even more curved than before the performance.

Mr. Xie suddenly staggered and was about to fall. Lan Yu strode forward to support him. Mr. Xie didn't turn back. He manipulated the puppet to exit from the left. Mr. Li controlled another character to come on stage. The audience didn't notice the backstage different.

Mr. Xie was supported by Lan Yu and walked down. He beat his lower back hard with his fist, "I'm old...it's too late."

Lan Yu's eyes were worried, and Mr. Xie smiled wrinkledly when he saw this, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, it's an old problem, I can still hold on for half an hour."

The three players took out the dog skin plaster quite habitually, and stuck it on Mr. Xie with a snap. Mr. Xie rubbed the dog skin plaster vigorously, straightened his waist hard, and was about to go on stage with Wang Sheng in his arms.

Lan Yu had also thought about why the program was only half an hour long instead of longer, which would be more effective.

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't...

They can't last for an hour, they can only last for half an hour at most...

Lan Yu looked down at her hand, pursed her lips, stretched out her hand to press Mr. Xie, took Wang Sheng, placed two copper sticks between five fingers in a strange way, and then tried to flick the silk thread with her fingers to change the copper stick. The length between the stick and the puppet, and then control the puppet to raise its hand, turn around and kick its legs.

Ten seconds later, Lan Yu realized that even if she hadn't been trained and practiced after time travel, she couldn't do anything with these puppets.

Xie Lao laughed silently, "You won't."

Mr. Li took the time to look this way, Mr. Xie smiled back, and then said to Lan Yu, "Give it to me, there are still 10 minutes, you can persist."

This closed stage performance was not only for old man Li, but also for all the remaining six members of Li's class.

They want to give themselves a perfect ending.

Lan Yu recalled some of Wang Sheng's classic movements, looked at her fingers, looked at the old man who was staring at her in astonishment, and said softly, "I will."

A man can't say he can't!

He really won't!

But he can really do it too!

Lan Yu released the soul thread, which bonded to the control thread on the puppet, cheated in front of Mr. Li, and manipulated Wang Sheng to perform Duan Tai Chi.

This set of Tai Chi is performed slowly and powerfully, with a perfect blend of movements and expressions, and it has a trace of Lan Yu's own lazy and fearless style

Everyone watching Lan Yu in the background was shocked. Old Xie's lips moved, his eyes turned red, and he cupped his hands at Lan Yu, "Please."

Lan Yu also nodded solemnly, "Yes."

Mr. Xie moved the stool and sat down at the entrance on the right, covering his body with a black cloth. Lan Yu was tall enough to stand beside Mr. Li. Looking up, he saw the black cloth on the opposite side covered with lines and action marks.

The movements of Lan Yu's hands paused, because she is old and her memory is not good, so do you need a reminder...

Lan Yu activated the silk-drawing formula and controlled Wang Sheng to act according to the script prompts, while Xie Lao hid beside him to dub.

In 10 minutes, from unfamiliar to proficient, the expressions of everyone in Li's class also changed from nervous to relaxed. Lan Yu gradually cooperated with them tacitly. Sometimes, Lan Yu knew what it meant when Mr. Li gave him a look.

As the time for the end of the performance drew closer, Mr. Li couldn't control his tears again.

it's almost over...

He has always remembered the rules of the master, a qualified puppet master must have a complete set of puppets and equipment made by himself.

He is the descendant of the Li family troupe. He was talented and hardworking since he was a child. He soon became one of the pillars of the puppet troupe. He once led the Li family troupe to become a well-known puppet troupe in their city. The performances are full every month. full.

Later, the puppet show gradually went into decline. There were no apprentices, no heirs, and almost no performances. In a puppet theater troupe, everyone relied on other jobs to make ends meet. .

Mr. Li is not a stubborn person. Back then he let the puppet masters leave and made an agreement.

One day, if we can reunite, I hope everyone can become a qualified puppet master.

He squeezed time out of time and spent more than ten years perfecting his puppet. Just when he was about to come out of the arena again, he accompanied his grandson to the medical examination and got the bad news that he would not live for a year.

He hid the medical certificate, wanting to be self-willed for the last time.

He got in touch with his old partner who was still in touch, and wanted to give a perfect ending to the agreement of the year. His puppets belonged to everyone in Li's class, and the final performance was closed, everyone together!

With Wang Sheng's last closing action, the puppet show came to an end.

The performance ended perfectly, and the audience stood up and applauded vigorously, with applause and childish whistles.

It was completely dark at this moment, and all the lights in the square were turned on, and it was as bright as day in an instant.

Lan Yu listened to the lively discussion in front of the stage, and looked helplessly at the six people behind the stage who were hugging each other and crying.

When he didn't know how to comfort him, Guan Tong walked in holding Ah Hu, the village chief and others.

The old people received their efforts in a second, and their tears disappeared miraculously. They held the hands of the village chief and others and said words of thanks excitedly.

Li Shunyuan and Xie Lao seemed to let go of a major matter in their hearts after the performance, thanked the village chief and others for their retention, packed up their things and went back to the nursing home.

Lan Yu and Guan Tong couldn't even try to persuade them, and the old people insisted on going back to the nursing home.

Grandpa Li held Lan Yu's hand, with a gratified expression and a little worry, "This road is not easy to walk, you... If you can't go on, just change to another road."

Lan Yu raised her eyes and stared seriously at Grandpa Li's eyes, then shook her head for a while, "It's not easy to go, just fly over."

Grandpa Li probably regarded him as a junior of some kind, but he really only cheated by relying on his spiritual sense. If he didn't have the silk-drawing formula, he wouldn't even be able to cheat.

"It's best to be able to fly." Li Shunyuan sighed, it's good for young people to venture more, not to mention that Xiao Lan's skills are so superb, even better than his master when he was in his prime, and he almost couldn't catch it later.

The stage was built quickly, and it was also dismantled quickly. When Li Shunyuan and the others got into the car, the stage was completely dismantled and was being loaded into a pickup truck to be transported to Mao Mao Shan.

Li Shunyuan hugged the erhu in his arms, showing nostalgia, and handed it to Guan Tong after a while, "This is for you."

Guan Tong: "Huh?"

Mr. Xie also handed his Guzheng to Lan Yu, and the other elders gave the instruments they brought, which were not worth much, but they were all commonly used musical instruments to see everyone off. Zhou Kong and Que Ganhua both had one.

Several old people looked at each other, all showing relieved smiles, then closed the car windows and walked away in the night.

The villagers also walked home in twos and threes while chatting about the puppet show. Lan Yu and the others got in the car and went home first.

Except for Guan Tong and Zhou Kong who ate a bowl of glutinous rice balls, everyone else hadn't eaten yet. Zhou Kong entered the room and grilled rice in bamboo tubes. Lan Yu and Guan Tong lit a charcoal fire, brought out the marinated meat and vegetables, and skewered them After a while, the village head, Que Yanshu, and party secretary also came.

Move the tables and chairs from the front hall to the courtyard, and move the electric oven out. The village chief is putting cucumber lettuce strips and potato slices on it, and then put the fried black fish on it, add the prepared sauce, and turn on the fire. The family The version of charcoal grilled fish is online.

Zhou Kong grilled the rice in a bamboo tube, and found that the small fish had been packed and put them in the freezer. He took out a stainless steel basin, marinated them, and brought them out to Lan Yu Guantong for charcoal grilling.

Charcoal-grilled fish, freshly-roasted beef, mutton, pork, various vegetables, and small dried fish. Lan Yu ate some barbecue meat first, and when the bamboo rice was ready, he ate two of each before starting to drink.

Que Ganhua watched helplessly as Lan Yu drank the whole table down by himself, and the last thought he had when he fell down was:

Lan Yu's drinking capacity is really good!

Dad didn't lie...

Lan Yu finished as usual, helped everyone to the left wing or guest room, then cleaned up the mess, cleaned up, and put the tables and chairs back. After all this was done, she still didn't feel sleepy.

When he drank, his energy was not very good. Lan Yu and Ah Hu took out the small dried fish from the freezer, marinated them, baked them in batches, and then packed them in bags. With the soul thread, Lan Yu could multitask.

Awakened by the scent, Ah She poked her head out of her pocket, "Ayu, Ayu, it smells so good!"

"Here." Lan Yu stuffed the freshly baked dried fish to Ah She, and asked while grilling, "Ah Sheh, did you prepare Daqing's body?"

"Huh?" Ah Sheh swallowed the dried fish, Heidou Doudou looked at Lan Yu in a dazed way, and after a while he was not sure: "Ah Sheh doesn't know, Ah Sheh just seems to see a lot of pious wishes."

"A Sheh is awesome." Lan Yu didn't ask any further questions, patted Ah Sheh's head, and continued to roast the dried fish.

Ah Sheh was instantly happy: "Enen, Ah Sheh is awesome!"

Ah Sheh squatted on Lan Yu's head and ate leisurely while flicking his tail, "Ah Sheh's brain is not good, and many things are ignorant. When your second senior brother refines the transformation pill, it may be better for Ah Sheh to eat. a little."

[Task 1: Please receive a customer from Xiuzhen Continent, and get good reviews, and reward Transformation Pill*[-]]

The system suddenly made a noise, and after drinking, the courageous Lan Yu Shenhunsixian was grilling fish in the kitchen, and the others had already arrived in the backyard, so he took out his mobile phone to receive the task without saying a word.

The expressionless second senior brother Shang Lu appeared in mid-air, and the first thing he saw was Lan Yu, with a twisted smile on his stiff face, "Ayu, long time no see, I finally found you."

Lan Yu also showed surprise: "Second senior brother, why are you here too!"

"I was hunted down on the way home, and fell into a sea of ​​thunderstorms." Shanglu fell to the ground, looked down at himself, and found that most of the scars that should have disappeared, "What about you? How did you get here?"

Lan Yu explained the ins and outs of the matter again, and finally asked Qin You, "Has Qin You gone back?"

"I saw it after I left the customs." Shanglu finished speaking and looked at Ahu, "Ahu, Master misses you very much."

In the end is Ah Sheh, "Ah Sheh, come on, the Transformation Pill is ready..."
