Chapter 30. Listening to the Opera

Cheng Songer stabilized her emotions and began to listen to the opera.

"I am a servant in the Yang residence. Since the banquet that day, when I saw Lady Jing, my spirit couldn't help but be moved. If we can be like the phoenix and the phoenix, with a prosperous wife and an honored husband, it would not be in vain for my discerning eyes. I can't help but change into women's clothing, steal the token, and go to meet her, to find out her true feelings. . . I hope she can understand my heart like Wenjun and Xiangru, and I entrust my silk and vines to the towering tree. "

The beautiful singing voice outlined the corners of her eyebrows, as melodious as an oriole, singing about the young man's thoughts.

All the men present were captivated by it, even the married ones, as if they had fallen into a dream of youth.

As the scene ended, everyone started applauding, and Cheng Songer joined in clapping. . . but she didn't understand anything.

The opera's lyrics were drawn out for too long, with sighs after every line. Having been accustomed to watching modern idol dramas, she found it a bit difficult to listen to. She had just started to adapt when the play ended.

The actress playing the young female lead slowly exited the stage.

Soon, the second act began, starting with a tune that created an atmosphere as if one were by the West Lake's Broken Bridge.

A green figure and a white figure slowly walked out. Seeing this, Cheng Songer understood that it must be "The Legend of the White Snake" without a doubt.

She was confident. She had watched "The Legend of the White Snake" countless times and knew the plot by heart. This time, she would definitely understand it.

"Xu Xian! This red curtain is your sobering soup. Boldly take a look at your charming husband!" said Fahai.

Xu Xian opened the curtain and saw that Bai Suzhen had already transformed into her true form as a white snake. Xu Xian was immediately frightened.

Then came the familiar scene of Bai Suzhen seeking the herb to save Xu Xian. After rescuing Xu Xian, he went to Jinshan Temple, followed by the much-anticipated climax of the play, "The Flood at Jinshan Temple."

At this point in the plot, Cheng Songer expressed no pressure.

Just as she was about to wait for the moment when the Leifeng Pagoda collapsed, the plot suddenly took a 180° turn.

It turned out that when Bai Suzhen flooded Jinshan Temple, she couldn't bear to see the suffering of the common people below and used her magic to drain the water.

She knelt in front of Jinshan Temple, begging Fahai to release Xu Xian and promising to give up her thousand-year cultivation.

Fahai agreed, but Xu Xian didn't want to have any further relationship with a snake demon.

Bai Suzhen lost her powers and could barely maintain her human form. She knelt on the ground, begging Xu Xian for mercy, but instead of being moved, Xu Xian mercilessly beat her to death.

Yes, Bai Suzhen was beaten to death like that.

Cheng Songer was stunned and shocked, dropping a handful of peanuts without realizing it. It was Cheng Qingzhi who noticed and picked them up.

"Is this the story of the White Snake that you have here?" She looked at Cheng Qingzhi in a daze.

Cheng Qingzhi nodded, "Yes."

"So Bai Suzhen was beaten to death like that? Wasn't there a reversal?"

"Yes," Cheng Qingzhi said, "After Bai Suzhen was beaten to death, a strand of her soul continued to cultivate. When she regained her human form, she reunited with Xu Xian in their reincarnated lives. However, the reincarnated Xu Xian had already accepted the fact that she was a demon, and they lived harmoniously as a loving couple."
