Chapter 132 Acrobatics
In the back garden of Song Mansion.
The entire Song Mansion is the most lively place. Most literati talk and laugh, and scholars and talented women drink and have fun. A handsome young man who was born but had a gloomy face just saw Lin Yu coming in from the Song Mansion and showed a look of disgust.
"Brother Xu, it will be the Spring Festival in a few days. If you and I want to get together again, you will have to spend more time. The plum blossom wine in the Song Mansion is so fragrant. You and I will never return tonight without getting drunk!"
Wen Tingyi was drunk and drank by himself, and Xu Hanshan glanced at him without saying a word.
Lu Juzheng walked over and whispered: "I said my son from whom I came out so abruptly, but I didn't expect it to be General Lin's son."
Xu Hanshan felt anger in his heart and had nowhere to vent his anger. He snorted coldly: "Now there are rumors in the entire Tiandu City. He only relied on the Lin family to obtain the poet's title. Even if Mr. Xu deliberately protects each other, what's the use? Who knows if the Lin family and the Literature Academy are deliberately protecting each other?"
Next to him, several scholars and talented scholars lowered their heads and drank without saying a word. Considering that Lin Yu's current identity is the son of the general, they must have offended him, but when they heard Xu Hanshan's statement behind him, everyone's eyes lit up and quickly agreed.
This is what everyone rumored each other. Besides, if there was nothing wrong with it, how could a young master who had been stupid for more than 20 years suddenly become so talented!
At this time, a female student from the School of Literature next to her suddenly stood up and said, "Why can Mr. Xu say nothing about you here!"
"If you don't agree, you can go and compete with Mr. Lin. Unfortunately, he still claims to be a famous talent in Jiangnan, but he is still not afraid of being laughed at by gossiping here!"
Xu Hanshan was furious and looked up and was about to refute, his face was stunned.
I saw several male students from the School of Literature standing behind the female students one after another, looking at him with bad eyes.
The female student looked contemptuous and said, "I don't know what you guys claiming to be literary talent think, but it's just a garden poetry appreciation conference. Mr. Xu asked a few questions, but he couldn't answer them himself, but he was actually obsessed by you like this. It's really annoying! Furthermore, if you feel dissatisfied and think that the Literature Academy is interested in favoritism, then you can go and compete with Lin Yu, hide in this corner and say that people are not. What's the skill!"
After the female student finished speaking, she turned around and left with her long black and flowing hair. Several male students behind her glared at Xu Hanshan and hurriedly followed.

In the hall of the Song Mansion, Bai Xiaoxue looked at the dazzling lanterns outside the house, couldn't help but yawn, and said, "Why isn't it over yet..." The people sitting in front also looked depressed, but there was no sign of Mrs. Song.
Han Qingyue smiled gently and said, "Doctor Li is treating Mrs. Song, and the banquet will be continued later. If you feel tired, go to the front yard to see the acrobatics. I have heard that Dean Song invited a troupe to perform there."
Bai Xiaoxue's eyes lit up, then shook her head and said, "There are so noisy people outside, I won't go."
Han Qingyue smiled with her lips pursed and knew that Bai Xiaoxue wanted to stay with her.
Several servants walked among the crowd one after another, explained that Dean Song would come out later, and then respectfully invited everyone to the front yard to watch the acrobatic performance of the opera troupe.
"Everyone, tonight is the birthday of my old lady. Our master specially invited the opera troupe from Suzhou Weaving Mansion to perform acrobatics. The performance is about to begin. Please invite all the talents to come and watch!"
After listening to the servant's concert, everyone at the dinner immediately became interested. It was rare for this troupe to perform acrobatics. I heard that they could freely spread the fire and flow through the metal and stone at will, hanging without falling or passing through the walls, and they could even get coins from the oil pan!
Thinking of the crowd rushing toward the front yard, Lin Yu looked at Song Jin with an excited look and full of admiration, and asked, "Do you want to go over and see if you have an acrobatic performance?"
Song Jin took the initiative to pour a glass of plum blossom wine for Lin Yu and said, "Senior, let's go and have a look later."
"I just heard the martial arts you mentioned, there are so many types. I wonder why seniors have to learn so many martial arts?"
Lin Yu said: "Walking in the world, you don't have to suppress your body with more skills. If you have more skills, you don't have to be afraid of one day if you encounter a strong opponent."
After listening to some stories about the Return of the Condor Heroes and those words Lin Yu said, Song Jin's eyes were full of little stars.
The front yard of the Song Mansion was very spacious, so a large area of open space was quickly vacant.
A stage was set up in the open space, with gongs and drums and lanterns hanging high. A talented man and beautiful woman sat around the stage. On the stage, a young actor in a costume held a sword in his hand. The sword light flashed light and danced back and forth on the stage. Then he suddenly tilted his head to swallow it. Everyone was immediately in an uproar, and the timid person covered his face and dared not watch it. In the next scene, the young actor slowly pulled out the sword, danced, and then bowed down slowly. Everyone applauded like thunder and cheered.
Next to him, Song Jin exclaimed softly. Seeing that Xiaosheng was safe and sound, he gently pressed his flat chest and asked, "Senior, is it also a skill to swallow the sword just now?"
Lin Yu nodded.
After watching the performance, he was also impressed. Whether it was now or in his original era, swallowing a sword was a very dangerous technical job, which was real kung fu! Putting aside some tricks on the sword, if it was really swallowed alive, it really required courage and technology. The troupe of this drama is indeed well-deserved.
At this time, an old man walked onto the stage, wearing a white costume and white beards, first dancing and singing. Several servants behind him set off a big pot, and everyone raised their eyebrows. With a "wow", several servants poured a pile of oil into the pot, and the bamboo charcoal underneath burned violently, and white smoke began to emerge from the big pot.
The old student signaled the servant to put the oil pan in front of everyone and said, "Everyone, what I will perform is the oil pan to withdraw money!"
After hearing this, everyone's face changed.
Song Jin was so excited that his long legs were tense. Lin Yu looked at the big pot with white smoke, and showed a faint smile and said nothing.
The oil pan was placed in front of everyone, and the audience sitting in front retreated one after another.
If it is splashed by oil, it is not a joke.
They don’t have real skills. The old man can withdraw money from oil pans, which does not mean that they can do it.
The old man walked in front of everyone, his white beard shook slightly, and he smiled: "I just came up to perform a little abruptly, I forgot to bring some copper coins on my body... I don't know who can help me."
These are all scenes, and everyone knows that except for some poor scholars sitting, they are basically either rich or noble. They immediately flew from various places, some fell into the oil pan, and some fell to the ground.
The old man smiled so hard that he couldn't stop and said, "Thank you everyone, thank you everyone."
He picked up the coins that fell to the ground one by one. Lao Sheng walked to the oil pan and put the coins into the oil pan. While he seemed to feel the oil temperature, his face still had a smile and said, "Hot, heat more..."
Seeing this, everyone's faces changed.
Song Jin's fair face was full of disbelief.
