Chapter 242: Chapter 226 Second Brush (100/2)1
The comedy continues.
Due to a collection of Tang Yin’ s poetry and Madam Hua’ s rage, Tang Bohu had no choice but to continue to masquerade as Hua An.
When Tang Bohu starts his self-deprecating rap with bowl beatings, the comments grew dense:
“I can’t be human anymore!”
“I insult myself!”
” Pfft, can’t you produce something more positive?”
“Look at Madam Hua and the others, they are so strange!”
“These women are reaching their climax merely by listening to this song?”
“Who knows that Tang Bohu… he is too bewitching!”
“Xian Yu is indeed a genius composer, the music in this movie, excluding the parodic elements, is really good to listen to!”
“My stomach hurts from laughing!”
Tapping bowls, stools, pillars, Tang Bohu can use anything for his music, completely embodying his own characteristic evaluation:
Monumentally proficient in both poetry and painting, especially rhythm.
In other movies, this setup would only be a superficial characterization, but in this movie, everything carries conviction!
Tang Bohu’s poetry.
Tang Bohu’s rhythm.
Both are unmistakably top-notch!
As the most notable one out of the four talented individuals in Jiangnan, he indeed lives up to his reputation!
The movie is a series of connected events, extraneous characters need not exist.
As the story takes another turn, Zhu Zhishan appears.
He impersonates Tang Bohu, resulting in him being caught and taken to Hua Mansion, precisely during the instance that the rebellious Prince of Ning was looking for trouble with Chancellor Hua.
Therefore.
When Zhu Zhishan, impersonating Tang Bohu, started a fleeting romance with Sister Pomegranate and painted a “Chick Pecking” picture in front of everyone, even those resistant to humor doubled down in laughter!
This is a classic scene from “Flirting Scholar”.
The reason it became a classic is because this segment is indeed iconic—
“The Phoenix’s Pride painting is impressive!”
“The real Bohu should come on stage hahahaha.”
“Brother Zhishan, hurry up and find your Sister Pomegranate.”
“Pfft, Sister Pomegranate…”
“Who can handle this!”
“Beauty beyond comparison, Sister Pomegranate!”
Deng Chi also started to clutch his stomach in pain.
Yes, from laughter.
It appears that every second of this movie conjures up new comedic elements, making it hard to suppress one’s laughter.
What?
Depression?
At least in this moment, Deng Chi completely forgot about it, he clutched his stomach, almost bursting into tears from laughter.
In fact.
As the movie plot progresses to this point, one memorable scene follows another.
At this moment.
The Prince of Ning’s envoy put forward this verse: “A town with two villages under three teachers, yet without knowledge of the four books, the five classics and the six principles, dare to teach seven, eight, or nine sons, indeed daring!”
As soon as this verse was presented, not just Chancellor Hua, but the audience were also flummoxed!
Undoubtedly, this verse is difficult.
Under the anticipation of the audience, the real Tang Bohu emerged and instantly replied: “Ten impoverished houses manage to scrape together eight taels, seven maces, six fen, five hao, four li, yet still vacillate, forever an underclass.”
“Wrong.”
The envoy sneered.
Deng Chi furrowed his brow.
Tang Bohu’s verse, while amusing, was indeed irregular and asymmetrical, but this is a movie, perhaps there’s no need to quibble…
“Just joking.”
Tang Bohu casually retorted: “Among the ten temples, nine monks devote themselves to eight scriptures, strictly adhering to seven precepts, six paths, and five principles, yet lament that no four, three, two disciples are left in utter helplessness.”
Deng Chi’s eyes lit up!
This response is indeed brilliant!
Though that’s not the only brilliant part.
As if to provide Tang Bohu’s literary talent with more credibility, the following verses delivered by him were continuously impactful—
“While the dragon in the painting doesn’t roar and the tiger doesn’t growl, it’s laughable that a little book boy could.”
“On the chessboard, the chariot has no wheels and the horse no reins, yet they exclaim ‘checkmate’, beware!”
“Oriole by oriole, swallow by swallow, green by green, red by red, harmony everywhere!”
” Rain after rain, wind after wind, flower after flower, leaf after leaf, year by year, dusk after dawn!”
“With ten hearts pondering, pondering about you, the country, and the society animals.”
“Eight eyes focusing, focusing on the flowers, the moon, and Qiuxiang ~ ”
“You…”
“Just kidding, an inch of my body gratefully speaks, thanks heaven, earth and to the king.”
Cracking jokes, yet effortlessly poetic…
The rhymes might not be neat, but it was just a joke…
Not to say that they’re unparalleled, but at the very least, these couplets bear great value!
Not just for comedy!
But they also give one a feeling of refreshment and satisfaction!
The style of this movie never stays serious for more than three seconds, after the audience feels refreshed, laughs follow. A scene where a staff member suddenly collapses and coughs up blood…
“Is this the legendary ‘coughing up three liters of blood’?”
“These couplets are lit!”
“Why can’t I come up with such couplets?”
“First it’s poetry, now it’s couplets, Xian Yu, I’m down on my knees in admiration!”
“Mom asked me why I’m watching this movie on my knees…”
“This movie is practically a one-man show by Xian Yu!”
“He shows off his music, poetry, couplets, I can only say Xian Yu is awesome…”
“I’m crying from being shown off!”
“Xian Yu should write more poetry in the future!”
“Sorry, I’m too uncultured. I’m just laughing.”
“Me too, I laughed myself hoarse!”
“What’s that? I can laugh myself into pig squeals!”
From laughter, to surprise, to being stunned, the barrage of comments at this moment is dense, even the audience who usually don’t interact are shocked by these famous scenes!
No audience can remain calm…
Not that this movie wins over every audience, but at this point, those who didn’t like it have already left, and those who are watching have truly been attracted by this movie!
Just then.
A comment floated out of the corner which gave many a jolt, “Let me tell you a ghost story, look at the progress bar.”
Deng Chi just happened to see this comment, and then he felt his depression begin:
“Hold on, progress bar!”
The movie… is about to end!
Apart from Deng Chi, other audience members also noticed that the progress bar could not hold up, and for a while, numerous comments encouraging the progress bar sprang up…
Pleasantly surprised!
The movie is energetic all the way, and many viewers don’t want the film to end.
But there are no endless feasts in the world.
With the Prince of Ning defeated, after Tang Bohu and the Evil Scholar had an exciting fight, he finally ended up with the beauty.
Of course.
The comedy in the process did not weaken with the end of the movie. Many interesting gags kept appearing.
Like “Give me back my blows”…
Like Madame Hua and the Evil Scholar battling it out, and then swapping clothes…
Like Tang Bohu completed a painting called “Spring Trees and Autumn Frost” in a very short time and nonsensically said something about the weather being wet…
Again, during the Qiuxiang appreciation, Tang Bohu recites poetry, as a result Sister Pomegranate urgently needs a loo, and she steps forward…
The appearance of these jokes almost made Deng Chi forget about the progress bar.
Therefore, when the movie ended with the scene of Qiuxiang pulling Tang Bohu to play a round of cards, Deng Chi suddenly felt a hint of regret.
Is it over?
Really over?
Hello, this is the time when our web film’s superiority should be brought into play.
Deng Chi didn’t hesitate to re-play the movie.
The university’s unique on-demand feature is that you spend five dollars to watch it once and you want to watch it again?
That will cost more money.
This is like a movie theater.
Watch a movie once and spend the money once, it’s not because you have watched it once, and then the second time is free.
However, Deng Chi definitely doesn’t care about this money, the first time he watched this movie for fun, the second time he can appreciate it again…
Replay!
As a result, Deng Chi saw that many of the bullet screen comments at the beginning of the movie were the same as his own, coming across in rows:
“Second sweep.”
“Same second sweep.”
“Lookback again.”
“Hahaha, second sweep, second sweep, this movie laughs to death!”
“Beast, just came out of the movie and already doing a second sweep?”
“It’s so damn good, I can’t resist watching it again.”
“Originally in a bad mood, after watching this movie, all troubles are gone.”
At this time, the incoming audience, seeing so many “second sweeps” comments, are wondering if they walked into the wrong theater.
A new movie just came out, where did so many “second sweeps” come from?
Where are they?
Hired a navy?
Can you bring me together?
