Chapter 443 - 442: Degree of Conformity: 18.5 Percent
Mu Qiu began the performance.
Recalling the body movements just now manipulated by Guan Yu, she squatted down to pick up something, covered her chest, spun around making a heart shape, covered her chest again, moved her lips twice, covered her chest again, and finally rolled her eyes back with a skewed mouth and fell backward.
With such a high level of accuracy in the performance, who wouldn’t say it’s brilliant?
So brilliant that a few people in the front couldn’t help but roll their eyes back and fall backward as well.
Jiang Lu watched and clapped his hands, laughing heartily, then went to knock on Li Yang’s door next door.
"Do you still need me to perform? You should know better the essence of this performance."
Li Yang waved his hand, "No need, no need."
He had already secretly watched Mu Qiu’s amazing performance through the hollow patterns on the partition door.
Very spectacular.
Spectacular enough to have completely no relation to Cheng Zhirang’s performance he had seen before.
So now he was facing a dilemma.
Should he be a bit conscientious and perform the correct plot for Wei Yi, or be heartless and copy Mu Qiu’s performance verbatim for Wei Yi to see?
After much thought, he decided to blend the two performances together, mixing truth with falsehood, which would also ease his conscience.
So he knocked on the partition door next door and said to Wei Yi: "Get ready, I’m starting now, your group relies on you to save it, after watching my performance, you should be greatly inspired."
Wei Yi, who manually blocked his ears, made a questioning sound.
"Brother Yang, what are you saying? I can’t hear you."
"... Forget it if you can’t hear, you don’t need to block so hard, I suspect your fingers are going to pierce your forehead."
He stood up, walked a little closer, and began to perform.
Squatted to pick flowers, stood up and covered his chest, stumbled twice, then extended his finger tremblingly in a certain direction, switched positions, spun around making a heart shape, shook his head repeatedly, then changed positions again, extended his hand tremblingly, rolled his eyes back and fell backward.
The entire performance was smooth and natural, with seamless transitions, looking very theatrical.
It’s just a bit difficult to string them into a literate phrase.
Wei Yi had just sneaked over and seen Guan Yu holding Mu Qiu’s hand to "perform" a segment. He couldn’t see any serious performance, which left him a little dizzy now.
Li Yang’s performance made him dizzy, utterly confused.
Why point with a dainty finger towards the ground? Why touch the chest? Why spin around making a heart shape, and why be so mournful when doing it? Was the movement representing different people speaking? Why did the hand have to tremble so much?
He looked a little dumbfounded, raised his head, innocently and bewilderedly gazed at Li Yang.
Li Yang: "What’s wrong? Didn’t get it?"
Not getting it was just right, as he had watched it twice and still didn’t get it.
Wei Yi, still blocking his ears, loudly asked: "Huh? What?"
"..." Li Yang shouted back: "I’m asking if you didn’t understand?!"
The voice echoed in the empty hall.
Mu Qiu immediately perked up upon hearing it, hurriedly stood up, and felt her way forward: "What’s going on? Is something exciting happening? Help me go take a look!"
Others also started to poke their heads out, wanting to gather around and see the excitement. Shu Ran passed by her door and even mocked her.
"What’s a blind person going to see?"
Mu Qiu righteously retorted: "Just because I’m blind, does that mean I can’t enjoy some excitement? With my mind’s window closed, don’t I need more excitement to make up for my colorless world?!"
"You really can talk nonsense."
Shu Ran snorted and walked away.
Mu Qiu: "Hey, hey, at least help me walk!"
Shu Ran ignored her, but it was the deaf team member, Qiu Shuang, who saw her swinging her hand in the air and then took two quick steps over, extended his hand, fist-shaped palm downward, used his arm as a support, allowing her to lean on it.
Mu Qiu wasn’t shy either, said thank you, and urged him to hurry over: "Go, go, go, quickly, the excitement is about to end."
"... Okay."
The excitement was already over.
Li Yang believed that his performance had captured the essence of Jiang Lu and Mu Qiu’s performance, with nothing to correct or add, and Wei Yi only needed to imitate it.
And Wei Yi couldn’t grasp more actions, could only rigidly copy Li Yang’s performance, after a mental preparation, awkwardly performed in front of all the onlookers.
Shi Yuhuai and Guan Yu stood together, sighing wordlessly.
The other few people—those who could see—had expressions that varied subtly.
The transmission process of the previous two rounds of games wasn’t much watched, but now that they saw it, they realized that each pass of the performance indeed changed a bit, and by the time it reached the last position, the performance segment was no longer the same as the one they initially performed.
This could probably be called... innovation?
After watching their performance, the director asked from afar: "Guan Yu’s group, confirm the performance is over? Alright, it’s over, please watch the big screen."
Guan Yu: "..." What kind of lousy director is this!?
The big screen lit up with the longest sentence segment so far.
[Xiao Hua: Have you fallen in love with her?!
Tie Dan: No! The one I’ve always loved is you, Xiao Cao!
Xiao Hua couldn’t believe it, was heartbroken, had a heart attack, and collapsed.]
Lastly in golden letters: Match Level, 18.5 percent.
The crowd: "???"
Shu Ran: "What is this?"
Guan Yu: "!!!#@*&%£€!"
Qiu Shuang: "This..."
Li Yang: "Hahahahahaha what on earth is this?!"
Jiang Lu: "Oh, I’ve seen the previous episode, there’s even a special edited version of this little story online."
Cheng Zhirang: "... Does this really have literary value?"
Mu Qiu sighed: "Although I can’t see, judging from Sister Guan Yu’s gradually crazy reaction, this passage must be very exciting. Li Yang, read it to me."
This task Li Yang was more than willing to undertake, and he immediately read it aloud to Mu Qiu.
Then Mu Qiu expressed her admiration for the show’s creativity with her open mouth.
"Hahahahaha, marvelous!"
"Speaking of literary value, this passage couldn’t be more fitting!"
Her ability to speak nonsense while blind was getting better, but to spin a literary tale from this was still quite curious.
Shu Ran glanced at her, asking: "How does it have literary value? Where did you see that?"
Mu Qiu said as a matter of course: "Didn’t Brother Huai personally write an ending of the story about love for study and literature the last time? With phoenix lineage and tutoring, isn’t that literary enough?"
Standing to the side, Shi Yuhuai, who had been sullen and silent for a whole round of the game, closed his eyes and took a deep, heavy breath.
Li Yang: "It feels like Brother Huai is about to explode on the spot."
Mu Qiu: "One’s own doing, even if mute, must eat the fruit. Brother Huai, I told you Xiao Hua and Tie Dan would seek revenge on you, and you see, now the program team representing Xiao Hua and Tie Dan has come to trouble you."
The director immediately raised a megaphone to clarify: "The game question for this round was left for the third group, just so happens Guan Yu won over Mu Qiu, becoming the third group. This has nothing to do with us."
Mu Qiu: "Oh—so it’s truly self-inflicted."
Guan Yu & Shi Yuhuai: Damn it
