The backdrop can also be propped up.

Chapter 309

Once everyone had arrived, Director Wang signaled to the staff to start the live broadcast, and then raised the megaphone to say, "Yesterday, due to a small mishap, the program we prepared for the audience could not be performed. So this morning, we will show the audience the program prepared by our guest teachers."

"Next up is the performance by Teacher Xiao and Teacher Shen's group."

Hearing this, Xiao Keyuan breathed a sigh of relief—most of the audience was still asleep at this hour, and if they were scheduled to perform first, the audience's attention to him would drop significantly.

But Shen Changming was a little unhappy—he hadn't done anything wrong, but because Xiao Keyuan hadn't handled his own mess, he had been dragged into it.

The two performed a short song and dance routine. Because Shen Changming harbored resentment, he intentionally didn't want to cooperate and danced very lazily.

However, Xiao Keyuan was in no mood to argue with Shen Changming at the moment. He just wanted to finish the performance as soon as possible and reduce his appearance in front of the camera, so he jumped a beat faster than the music.

So, as a result, the performance was utterly disastrous—the two actors' movements were completely out of sync, and their voices were also very unpleasant.

Baltic Wife: Excuse me for wandering in by mistake. Is this a pig slaughterhouse?

Weiwei: Before those carbonated drink enthusiasts attack, let me say this first. Xiao Keyuan, refund my money!

Qiqi's witty thoughts: Xiao Keyuan, give me my money back! I liked you so much before, and now you're not only cyberbullying ordinary people, but you're also trying to shift the blame onto us.

Mingming almost: That's right, you're about to become an outdated nobody, so please don't drag Mingming down with you, okay?

However, the guests can't see these comments. If they could, Xiao Keyuan would feel even more ashamed.

Xiao Keyuan and Shen Changming's performance finally ended. Since there weren't many people in the live stream yet, the second group to go up was Sen Ouling and Wei Qingchun.

The staff brought over a small stool and a tiny iron kettle, because they couldn't find a small medicine stove that fit the era.

Wei Qingchun gave the staff a kind smile: "Thank you, young man."

"Oh, you're welcome, you're welcome." After saying this, the staff member returned to the production crew.

Seeing that the two were ready, Director Wang raised the megaphone and said, "Start!"

As soon as Director Wang finished speaking, Wei Qingchun's smiling face immediately changed, becoming serious and earnest.

Then, Wei Qingchun bent down slightly, made a fist with his hand, leaving a little hollow, and then began to sway his hand from side to side in a small motion, pretending that he was holding a palm-leaf fan and fanning the fire under the kettle that was pretending to be a medicine stove.

Sen Ouling quickly got into character. She took a deep breath, made a pushing motion, and then raised her foot high, pretending to step over the threshold.

“Master, I have a request, and I hope you will grant it.” Sen Ouling bowed to Wei Qingchun, who was playing the role of his master.

"Oh? You rarely ask me for help. What happened?" Wei Qingchun stopped fanning the medicine furnace and turned slightly to ask Sen Ouling, who was playing the role of his apprentice, "Is it that you can't find the medicinal herbs, or that you can't understand the medicine book?"

“Nothing happened, it’s just… I wish to go down the mountain, please grant my request, Master.” Sen Ouling put his hands in front of his chest and looked up in the direction where Wei Qingchun was sitting.

Wei Qingchun was silent for a while, then uttered one word after another: "You... want to go down the mountain?"

“Yes, Master.” Sen Ouling nodded slightly and took another step forward. “Please grant my request, Master.”

Wei Qingchun fell silent again, then gently waved her left hand again, mimicking the motion of fanning herself with a palm leaf fan, her tone somewhat forceful: "I disagree."

"Why, Master?" Sen Ouling took two steps forward urgently before stopping. "You've never been so heartless. Why won't you let me go down the mountain to help the world?"

"...Why did you come down the mountain?" Wei Qingchun paused for a moment and asked Sen Ouling, who was playing the role of the disciple.

“The merchant who came for treatment yesterday said that a plague had broken out down the mountain,” Senoring said, his tone heavy. “He said that corpses were everywhere and people were crying out in despair.”

"Do you know what the situation is like down the mountain right now?" Wei Qingchun stood up, his back to Sen Ouling, and picked up the kettle that was being used as a medicine stove.

“Master, I know.” Sen Ouling took two more steps forward, his tone tinged with urgency, “But now that a plague has broken out down the mountain, as the most promising disciple of the Xuanhu Sect, I should shoulder this responsibility of saving lives.”

“Now, it’s not just a plague down the mountain.” Wei Qingchun picked up the kettle, then pretended to pick up a small cup, raised the kettle high, and poured non-existent liquid into the non-existent cup.

"Famines are frequent, foreign enemies are invading, and bandits are roaming everywhere... Even if you cure those common people suffering from the plague, they will still die quickly because of these factors."

“What if they’re lucky and manage to escape? Then by saving their lives, they can live a little longer.” Sen Ouling knelt down with a thud. “If they’re all going to die sooner or later, are we not going to save them now?”

"Master, please let your disciple go down the mountain!"

“…The ground is cold, get up. You should go back now.” Wei Qingchun gently flicked her sleeve. “We can discuss this later.”

"Yes, Master, I take my leave." Sen Ouling got up from the ground, bowed to Wei Qingchun again, and then stepped over the imaginary threshold.

At this point, a few more people entered the live stream, and they began to discuss in the chat how well Sen Ouling and Wei Qingchun acted.

Deep Breath Dragon Soul: Wow, Teacher Wei's acting skills are still as good as before. One second it was raining and the next he said filming was about to start, and his expression changed.

Super amazing little dish: Sen Ouling is amazing too! I didn't feel any disconnect from the story at all. And their acting was so convincing, it was like these things really existed. So impressive.

After transforming into a seagull, I went to the dock to get some fries. (Allow me to give a quick plug: our sister Ouling is incredibly talented!) She's acted in short dramas like "Born to Play," "Rocaian," and "The Salted Fish's Road to Wealth," among many others. I hope everyone will check out her shows; I guarantee she won't disappoint!

Whoever eats the gold thread, I'll spank them: Remarked. I was just worried about not having any dramas to watch lately. If Sen Ouling could get Xiao Keyuan to stop accepting TV dramas adapted from popular novels, I guarantee I'd watch all her dramas 20 times.

Boba-flavored Coke: Wow, there are already online trolls this early in the morning!

Whoever eats the gold thread, I'll spank their bottom: Wow, this morning, this pesky Cola sister has already stuck to me like a dog skin plaster.

"Gold thread is the best to eat. Whoever eats the gold thread, I'll spank their butt: What, are you playing a sadomasochistic game with your brother? I was just blamed yesterday, and today I'm still charging forward with the blame on my head."

Taro and Strawberry (No Sugar): Please, stop praising her so much! She's just a minor actress who only starred in one hit drama, and that drama only became popular by riding on the coattails of someone else's popularity. How amazing can she be?

Flying to the sea without looking back: Well, that's still better than some people acting in six dramas in a year, and all six of them flopping, right?

Taro and Strawberry (no sugar): Where did it flop? The ratings are clearly very high, where did it flop? Don't just lie through your teeth because you're envious or jealous of Xiao Ge's popularity.

Just a mischievous seagull: 666 They've already jumped to conclusions before even mentioning who this person is who has lost six dramas in a row.

Give me snacks: After all, only Lao Xiao could achieve the feat of flopping six dramas in a row.
