A moment later, they came to the quiet courtyard where they were rehearsing improvised.
It is said to have been a place of study for school spirits and cursed mages, but after the Great Purge more than twenty years ago, it was a deserted mansion.
Located in a quiet woodland, there is a group of tombs not far from here, there are strange and unspeakable strange things everywhere as far as the eye can see, and most of the rooms are full of strange magic props and blueprints, due to the special status of the noble academy, after the great purge of the Light God Palace, some of the materials about spirits and curse magic have been preserved here, and when Barbara-sensei asked for a quiet room for rehearsals, the other party gave them this place.
"It's the best place there, it's a haunted house, and no one will want to go there, so you can rehearse with confidence."
Several people looked at each other without saying a word But speaking of which, to say that it is quiet here, it is really quiet enough, under normal circumstances, no one will approach this secluded house, from behind the curtain cautiously poked her head out and looked around for a while, Nancy just ran to the room like a thief with her skirt, Tang Yi smiled in the back: "Is it so exaggerated?"
"It's better that no one outside recognizes it, you don't know how terrifying those people are, if you encounter a chance encounter all day long and then deliberately arrange a hero to save the beauty, I'll go crazy."
Thinking of the other party's nervous reaction when they met for the first time, Tang Yi nodded sympathetically.
When the three of them entered the room, Christina, dressed in princess attire, was sitting in a mess of materials studying spiritual magic, and her big round eyes were drooping on the bridge of her nose when they first met, looking like a little old woman.
Vincent was sorting out some of the props to be used for today's performance, and he looked like he couldn't put it down.
Speaking of Vincent, he also has a general understanding of him in the past few days of contact, he has the habit of wanting to study the inner laws of everything, and has a strong performance fetish, since the rehearsal began, the most common words are "What a great deception, it will definitely leave a name for future generations."
Nancy wasn't surprised when she revealed her true identity.
Speaking of which, although he is somewhat out of place in this regard, he is generally an authentic good person, sunny and cheerful and enthusiastic, compared to those noble and elegant nobles, it is Tang Yi who feels more comfortable to associate with such ordinary people.
Seeing Nancy in hot clothes come in, Vincent whistled involuntarily, and then greeted Tang Yi, and during the time when Christina ran over to pull Xiaoxue's hand, Tang Yi introduced Xiaoxue's identity to Vincent, and also vaguely explained the fact that she didn't speak the language here.
Vincent immediately understood, and just smiled and nodded to her, which was considered to be a greeting.
The rehearsal is basically over, the show is planned by Tang Yi, and Nancy can be said to be a professional, so naturally there will be no problems between the two.
Probably because he likes to study the inner laws of everything, Vincent is surprisingly quick to get started with anything, and has amazed several people a lot in the past few days, and the only thing to worry about is the little girl Christina, but her project is equivalent to free play, and the problem is not big.
I probably reviewed the project that was going to be performed again, and then a few people chatted about what happened at the school gate, and they were not surprised that Teacher Barbara would have such a flamboyant son.
"Speaking of which, Lady Catherine once said that Miss Barbara has a very special position among the three families.
When she was young, almost all three major families pursued her, but who knew that she became pregnant inexplicably, and then she didn't say whose child it was, but it must be someone in the three families.
After giving birth to the child, I don't know why, instead of hating her, the people who originally pursued her in the three families took good care of her, and when they didn't know who the child's father was, others didn't dare to touch her easily.
In this way, although the three families are intriguing with each other, she has become the object of protection of the three families at the same time.
As for the child, there was no big news about it later, and it was called Felix, a very good name, and it was said that the meaning in the ancient language was happiness."
With a slight groan, Nancy told what she knew, and the rest of the group had nothing to gossip about.
Seeing that it was noon, Tang Yi and Vincent went out to buy food, and on the way, they heard a group of people talking about the mother and son, which had made the whole school boil, and Barbara was currently looking for the disobedient son everywhere in the school.
In the afternoon, more nobles came to the school one after another, most of them were noble families who came here to watch the performance, and the evening performance was divided into four areas, martial arts, magic, alchemy and art.
Xia Wujia's name.
In the afternoon, Tang Yi led Xiaoxue around the campus, and at this time, the festive atmosphere had roughly appeared, with silk ribbons fluttering everywhere, and various magic props that would be opened at night had also been arranged.
The huge altar on the campus square had begun to gather magic power, and a faint fluorescent light appeared on the circular pedestal like a flying saucer, but Tang Yi didn't dare to get too close when he led Xiaoxue to watch.
Furna had told him that if his body did come into contact with magical items, it would result in a loss of magic.
After a while, several nobles came over and tried to talk to Xiao Xue, but naturally there was no result, but Tang Yi had already realized Xiao Xue's lethality and hurriedly returned to the rehearsal courtyard with her.
Seeing Tang Yi's embarrassed appearance, Nancy smiled knowingly.
In the evening, when the sky was blazing with blazing clouds, a familiar carriage stopped outside the courtyard, and Lady Catherine arrived.
When the opening song and dance were enthusiastic, the backstage of the performance was also in chaos.
"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, this is the Douglas thing, it's going to pass soon" "Hurry up and hurry up and put on makeup yet, let's rehearse for the last time."
"What are you doing, if you dare to break this piano, you will die, our Viscount will only be inspired if he uses his own piano" "Get out of the way, get out of the way, I'm the first to perform, you people get out of the way."
In fact, the stage preparation that should have been done was probably done yesterday, but when it came time for the actual performance, the chaos caused still felt as if the end of the world had arrived.
There is no doubt that the backstage for the performance is really quite spacious, but for the nobles, such spaciousness is obviously not enough to meet the standards they need, and when the number of servants and guards crowded into carrying props is greatly increased, the whole backstage is like a pot of porridge.
Just standing at the door and looking, Tang Yi and the others were startled by the situation inside, countless crowded servants outside carried props and made noise with each other, many even used the levitation technique to slowly pass through the air, and inside were dozens of groups of nobles who drew out a clear area, and the atmosphere between them was tense, which really made people worry about when they would start their all-out martial arts here.
One of the largest groups was a dance team composed of dozens of costumed aristocratic ladies led by Janet, surrounded by dozens of fierce guards, who set up a dressing table there, sacrificed magic water mirrors, and dressed up nervously.
Well, it turns out that these people are not carrying things to perform on stage, but purely tables, chairs and benches to sit here.
"It's good that Nancy was prescient, let Lady Catherine have someone help us move the props in, or it will be a lot of fun."
Hiding in the corner of the venue, Tang Yi said to Nancy in admiration.
At this time, the entire stepped venue was almost full of people, this was a large venue that could accommodate tens of thousands of people, which surprised Tang Yi, there were so many nobles in the world, and they could also go to the special viewing platform of Lady Catherine above, where there was the best viewing angle, but Nancy and Vincent preferred to squat in such a lewd corner to watch the play, Tang Yi could only pull Xiaoxue and Christina to accompany them, and wait until the performance began to send Xiaoxue up.
"When I was young, I often peeked at other people's performances like this, and now I don't need to watch it like this, but I can't get used to bad habits and can't get rid of them."
Vincent smiled helplessly.

"And Lady Catherine's status is so noble, she will not be in the mood to look at her side."
That's Nancy's reasoning.
"But she's so easy with everyone."
"That's Lady Catherine's cultivation, of course, but haven't you noticed the nobility that she naturally exudes, and there aren't many people who can not be ashamed of themselves in front of her, anyway, I can't help it," Nancy shrugged her shoulders rather annoyedly.
"Is it" Tang Yi nodded, in the original world, he himself was also a person who received that kind of education, and he had seen too many similar images, so he didn't have any sense of oppression, but he didn't expect that a person like Nancy who had experienced the world would feel uncomfortable in front of Lady Catherine.
Christina was defending her mother on the side, Xiaoxue looked at the performance on stage, and then turned around and said, "Ah Yi, it's so ugly." ” The first three performances of this kind are basically warm-ups that lead people into the atmosphere, but in general, they are above the level.
It's just that Xiaoxue likes natural things, and aristocratic performances can't arouse her interest at all.
Time gradually passed in such a performance, and people came in one after another outside the door above, and sat in the only vacant seats, and after a while, the VIPs in the front row were also filled one after another, Hai Yin in a long aqua dress.
Xia Wujia sat in the center of the front seat, surrounded by white-haired old men.
After the third performance, the impetuous atmosphere in the venue had quieted down, the magic lights gathered into a beam, and then someone came up to the stage to give a speech, it was the president of the aristocratic academy Donald that Tang Yi had met once.
"Under the light of the supreme glory of Sinloth, and under the leadership of the Great King of Atroka, we have ushered in the 414th Spring Festival of this great kingdom" The speech begins with a statement that similar things are the same pattern in every world.
After about five minutes of speech, he introduced more than a dozen judges in the front row, and as usual, they applauded and applauded, and the whole competition finally began.
The first performance is a solo piano performance, the second is the same, the third is a chorus of nobles, and the fourth is still a piano.
With so many piano performances, Tang Yi and others are really a little depressed, it is true that these people are also good in terms of personal skills, but as a performance, they really lack the passion and interaction that are enough to bring people's emotions, Nancy seems to be used to such things, sneering and pointing at some performers on stage.
"Ah, do you see that young lady, the tall one, with a good figure and beautiful legs, but it looks so scary when it comes closely, and her face is full of ugly black spots."
"Do you see the person above, on the surface, it is Viscount Bolait, but in fact, it is not at all, this is a stand-in.
This man went around preaching to people that Viscount Bolaite would increase his work, but he did not pay the corresponding salary, which made the entire aristocratic circle boil, and I couldn't imagine that Viscount Bolaite would dare to let him play in his place" The show went on to the fifth in a dreary atmosphere, and the sixth was a performance by Janet and others.
As soon as the curtain opened, the thunderous treble was suddenly pulled out, and at that moment, the dazzling light and shadow intertwined on the wide stage, and dozens of girls in aristocratic costumes descended from the sky, as if the whole world was blown open by spring thunder, cutting through the dullness that seemed to envelop the whole world.
There is no doubt that this is a well-planned and high-level performance, but this opening gives people a huge shock that suddenly brightens their eyes.
The entire arena was almost asleep, and the people sat up straight one after another.
The sound of music seems to come from infinity, and then the dance begins Probably stimulated or inspired by Tang Yi, the dance unfolding in front of him was completely different from the gorgeous but uninspired formation that day.
It is still an aristocratic dance based on calmness, but in that majestic momentum, it is interspersed with a lot of relaxed and flexible small details, and the dance opens up a broad artistic conception in a vibrant and energetic atmosphere.
Looking at Janet who was indulging in dancing on stage, Tang Yi couldn't help but admire slightly, being able to make such a modification of the entire dance in just a few days is such a huge progress and leap for people who are still bound by the concepts of this era In just a few minutes, the dance had its first huge climax since the opening, and when the performance came to an end, the whole venue burst into thunderous applause.
It was completely different from the perfunctory applause before, this was a real heartfelt appreciation, and even Nancy whispered with a sad face: "These eldest ladies are very good." ” Since their performance was scheduled for the eighth show, when the curtain was calling, Tang Yi sent Xiaoxue to the stands where Lady Catherine was.
Walking down the stairs and around the long corridor, he met the group of young ladies who were walking out one after another, and when she saw him, Janet stopped and looked at him with a smug smile.
"Well jumped, congratulations."
Tang Yi smiled and nodded to him.
"Even if you bring in Nancy to help, I won't lose to you."
She said confidently.
Removing her heavy dance costume and changing into a relaxed long dress, she walked out of the lounge.
The monotonous sound of the piano on the stage was unpleasant, she thought to herself.
Thinking back to Fang Cai's dance, she was reviewing step by step in her heart, she would not have done it so carefully in the past, today is different, today she does not want to leave flaws.
After one recollection, the mistakes here and there are minimized.
OK.
She thought.
It's a pity that Irina couldn't come, most of today's dance is due to her, if she performs it perfectly, but that's impossible, their friendship can only be put in a private position Thinking like this, the ugly piano sound in my ears finally stopped.
The announcer announced that the next performance was about to begin.
The curtain was slowly pulling up as he entered the venue through the side door The deep soft sound of "Ding Dong Ding Dong" sounded, as if falling into the darkest mysterious tunnel, a faint magic light moved disorderly on the dark stage, but nothing, the light was empty everywhere, the sound of the piano was monotonous and weird, the first time, the second time to the light and the third time to the stage cruise, the audience was almost about to let out a dissatisfied complaint, suddenly, the pale ghost face flashed in the light:
