If you don't go crazy, you can't survive

Who hasn't been moved by infatuation since ancient times? Cheng Dieyi fell in love with Duan Xiaolou all his life.

His stubbornness penetrated from his bones, and was revealed in every stubborn look in his eyes. "Little nun, she is twenty-eight years old, her hair was cut off by her master when she was young, I was originally a man, not a girl." When I got my hands on it, I also thought about my son-in-law madly.
It shows the stubbornness and perseverance in his bones.

The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, and many Liyuan actors sweat and bleed, just so that they can become a "corner" in the future. One day, Bole went to the Liyuan to find a thousand miles of horses, and fell in love with Xiaodouzi, who was beautiful and bright. When all the actors put all their hopes on him, he still said the wrong words and sang the wrong ones. Words "I am a man...". He was always a brother-in-law, and the little stone who loved to protect him changed his normal behavior. He hated only Xiaodouzi's talent, so he smashed his throat with the pipe. The gongs and drums sounded again, the actor appeared, and Xiaodouzi finally said the sentence "I am a female Jiao'e, not a man" with blood in her mouth. This is the first time that he has truly entered the play. It is the overlord of Western Chu, Duan Xiaolou, who will accompany him to sing and become a demon in the future, and fulfill the stubborn Cheng Dieyi. For the first time, he became the female Jiao'e.

Dieyi's tragedy is that his drama is one with me, one male and one male. As Duan Xiaolou has said time and time again: You really can't survive if you're not crazy. He really is the concubine of Naba Wang, who will be with him all his life, until his death. I have determined that you are my overlord, and we will stay together forever. You have to sing with me for a lifetime and be the overlord of Western Chu for my whole life. One year, one month, one day, one hour is not allowed!

Dieyi became the real Yuji, but Xiaolou was a fake overlord. Duan Xiaolou is just a ruthless actor after all, he can't make Cheng Dieyi's play and I become one. The Chu Bawang on the stage stepped off the stage, and it could only be Huang Tianba in Dieyi's mouth.
What he misses about is all kinds of human beings, and the world is full of red dust. So he ignored Dieyi's retention and went to find that mortal woman to be happy. Seeing Dieyi staring at him with all kinds of tenderness, he said that sentence with all kinds of nostalgia: Brother Shi, don't go. Who does not sigh for Dieyi.

Besides, that Juxian is also a stubborn woman. There is a strategy, a heroic spirit, and a backbone. It is not an exaggeration to say that she has the character of Cui Yingying and Du Shiniang. Her love for Duan Xiaolou is upright and deep. You hugged me, and you said that that day was the day we got married, and you wanted to marry me, that's fine! Then I will follow you! ! So this woman who had read all the romances in the world threw everything away and went with Duan Xiaolou in a desperate attempt. Juxian just became Mrs. Duan.

Dieyi hated Juxian very much, hated her for taking his small stone and taking his overlord of Western Chu.

But sometimes life is like a reincarnation, because of fate, what you have at a certain moment is like what you lost at that moment. Dieyi's detoxification became crazy and hysterical. Juxian, who was a prostitute, hugged Dieyi as if she was holding her accidentally lost child. Dieyi instantly seemed to be the doll in her mother's arms.
After many years of baptism of wind and rain, the relationship between Dieyi and Juxian has also changed subtly. They hate and envy each other, but they also sympathize with each other. During the ten-year Cultural Revolution, he criticized all the actors, and Duan Xiaolou, who was kneeling on the ground, lost his prestige. In order to protect himself, he betrayed Cheng Dieyi, who had protected him all his life. Juxian seems to understand and understand Cheng Dieyi's inner struggle at this moment, helplessness and despair. When the last dignity was also lost, Cheng Dieyi went crazy. Chu Bawang finally became a perfidious Huang Tianba. When he said: "I don't love her, I don't love her", Juxian's heart also completely collapsed. That little building was a joke after all. The bitch is ruthless, the play is meaningless. The tragedy of Juxian is that even though she is a bitch, she is a kind bitch, and his man is just a senseless actor.

When she heard it, Cheng Dieyi shouted "Juxian!" in a hoarse voice. It was the first time that she felt completely Dieyi's feelings for Juxian. Not the cold "Miss Juxian" in the past. Juxian loves and hates Duan Xiaolou so much, I have been desperate to follow you for so many years, but in exchange for your words "I don't love her, I don't love her". The disheartened Juxian, who has no support in this world, went to the Yellow Spring Road in despair. The death of Juxian is also reflected from the side, and this will also be the final outcome of Cheng Dieyi. So Dieyi's hoarse cry was filled with despair and sympathy in her fear.

After 11 years, Cheng Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou, who had experienced wind and frost, once again appeared on the stage. Only this time there were no audience, no Fourth Master Yuan, no warlords, no Communist Party, and no Red Guards. Just two former "horns", relive the old feelings.
They said that again: "The little nun is twenty-eight years old, and her hair was cut off by her master when she was young. I was originally a man, not a female Jiao'e..." I'm afraid that the past will reappear in my mind again and again.
Overlord is no longer the overlord of the year. Yu Ji is not the Yu Ji of the year.
The king is exhausted, and the cheap concubine is unhappy.
Dieyi sang, "Your Majesty, quickly give the sword to his concubine."
What kind of melancholy does he feel in his heart?

From the garden, you said you loved that sword. I will keep it in my heart and lose everything in order to get the sword. Times change, time passes. The majestic overlord of Western Chu in those days now only has Xiaodouzi and the sword left with the boy. I am the crazy Cheng Dieyi, the real Yu Ji who is indistinguishable between people and dramas, the end of the overlord, and the end of the song, so I will take the sword in your waist and slay it in the camp of Chu. Finally, I sang "Farewell My Concubine" for a lifetime with you.
