Chapter 243

When he opened it, Su Ye was very surprised.

It turned out that yesterday, lake went to visit Aeschylus, the father of tragedy. The old man famous for Greece agreed to Lake's request and was willing to guide Su Ye. He was free in the next two days and asked Su ye to make an appointment in advance.

Su Ye didn't expect to meet the legendary father of tragedy so early. He immediately sent a magic letter to Rex and agreed to meet at the dragon's beauty at noon.

Near noon, Su Ye's carriage arrived at the gate of Plato college, where Rick was waiting.

Su Ye stepped out of the carriage and saw that the dark circles on Rick's face were thicker and came forward to give him a hug.

"What's the matter? What's wrong with you? Why are you so enthusiastic about me? Do you want to see my sister? " Rick looked at Su ye with vigilance.

"No, no, no, I have no interest in your sister in front of the father of tragedy. The reason why I hug you is to thank you for your silent pay. Aeschylus is an aristocrat and a famous Greek playwright. If you can let him see me, you must do your best. Look at your dark circles, which is the best proof. "

Su Ye is not a fool. He knows what churek has done these two days.

Aeschylus is not as famous as Plato in Greece, but it is no less than Thucydides. Especially in the circles of nobility and emerging families, Aeschylus is more famous.

The pioneer of this immortal industry giant decided to meet a teenager. Su ye even suspected that Rick was likely to beg escuros.

"Thank you!" Instead, Lake thanked Su Ye.

Thank Su ye for not ignoring his efforts.

"Go! I hope you're not tired of the beauty of the dragon. " Sue patted Rick on the shoulder.

"Never tired. By the way, NIA said, "thank you for your dessert." Rick laughed.

"My sister is very polite and good." Suye road.

"It's my sister!" Rick stared.

Su Ye laughed.

Rick hesitated for a moment and reluctantly said, "Niya said that she will make you a cover of the magic book in a few days after she is busy with what she is doing." Rick finished and patted the leather cover on the surface of his magic book. "

"Thank you very much. I will bring more delicious food next time I see her."

"I won't let you meet!"

"There's always a chance." Su Ye smiled.

Not long after, they arrived at the beauty of the dragon and stood waiting.

A carriage stopped, and a tall old man stepped out of the carriage. He was dressed in a white Greek robe, with a gentle smile, and his deep eyes showed the light of wisdom.

"Lord Aeschylus!" Rick walked quickly.

Su ye also followed and looked forward to the Eternal Father of tragedy.

"Your Excellency, this is Su ye, my classmate." Lake introduced.

"Thank you very much for your willingness to come." Su Ye immediately bowed his head and saluted.

The old man smiled and said, "no, no, no, thank you, otherwise I will have to wait at least two months to eat the delicious food here. I didn't want to come, but Rick said he could eat here and nodded his head immediately. "

"Then I will let you eat the most delicious food. Please come in." Su Ye sideways made a gesture of invitation, gave a look to the waiter at the door and asked the waiter to lead the way in front.

Aeschylus went into the dining room, looked around the hall, gently nodded his head and followed the waiter.

"Mr. Aeschylus!"

"Good afternoon, sir!"

Many noble diners greeted the old man one after another, with respect in their tone.

Aeschylus kept smiling and nodding.

When the three took their seats, Su Ye smiled and said, "let's eat first. We can't make you hungry."

"I think so, too." Aeschylus laughed.

Su ye did not expect that the father of tragedy was a cheerful old man.

Perhaps, know what people like, know what people are sad.

Kelton came again in person to explain the dishes in detail and asked the old man's taste.

However, Aeschylus said, "since you come to a new restaurant, you should naturally try new dishes you haven't tasted. If you only choose the old taste every time, it's not a try, it's just a repetition."

"You are really a wise sage." Kelton sincerely praised it.

The three talked and laughed and had a happy meal.

However, the old man did not touch any dessert.

Suye and lake were surprised to ask why.

"I like all sweet things, but too much sweetness will paralyze my perception. Therefore, I want to restrain my desire, give up the sweetness of the world, and seize the higher sweetness, drama. " Aeschylus smiled and said why.

"Then we respect the sweetest thing in the world, drama." Suye road.

The three raised their glasses and sipped.

After dinner, the three men went to the reception room and chatted for half an hour to let Aeschylus know Su ye a little.

During the narration between Su ye and lake, the old man often nodded gently and responded to Su ye and lake. Every time he heard the highlights, he didn't hesitate to praise Su Ye. Every word was like an epic, which was particularly useful.

Then Su ye took out his magic book and let Aeschylus read the outline.

Aeschylus looked through it carefully. After reading it, he didn't say anything immediately. Instead, he thought for a long time and read it again.

Throughout the process, he showed no other emotions and remained serious and focused.

Thinking again, he returned the magic book to Su Ye.

"The story is a good story. Some of your words make me think that you are the divine dependant of the muse. So, do you want to hear the whole truth? " Asked Aeschylus.

"Of course." Suye road.

"Personally, I don't like it very much."

Aeschylus's words were like a bucket of cold water, which poured Su ye and Rick cool.

Su Ye just smiled awkwardly, while Rick changed his face.

"The beginning of your story is not attractive enough, which is why most of today's dramas focus on flashbacks and occasionally explain the cause with interruptions. Your scene conversion and multi act changes are easy to distract the audience. And... "

Aeschylus said many of his shortcomings.

Suye held a magic book and wrote down what Aeschylus said.

However, just highlight a few of them and write down how to improve them below.

Soon, the old man finished his opinion.

Rick's face sank like water. Unexpectedly, this would be the case. He thought Aeschylus would like the play very much.

The reception room was silent for a moment. The old man smiled again and looked at them.

"I said my personal opinion before. Next, let's talk about the opinion of 'playwright Aeschylus'."

Su Ye's eyes were frozen, and Rick was surprised.

The old man laughed and said, "don't be surprised. After all, in addition to the name "Aeschylus", I am most often called "champion of the poet competition" and "father of tragedy", although I don't like the latter. But, of course, when people are willing to call me that, I have to bear the corresponding responsibility. "

Rick nodded softly.

But when Su ye heard the word "responsibility", his eyes changed and looked more seriously at the father of tragedy.

"Personally, I don't like your drama very much. Note, I just say 'I don't like it'. I won't say bad or bad, because I know that in front of the world, each of us is as small as an ant. No matter how wise your eyes are, you can only see the front. No matter how narrow your eyes are, you may also see the blind spot of the wise. So, I can only say, I don't like it. My love is not the standard of the world, so I am not qualified to make judgments, especially negative judgments, especially judgments that hurt people. "

"When I first make a judgment of harm to you, I will allow your sword to pierce my chest." The old man's tone became more and more kind.

"You are really a wise elder." Su ye said sincerely.

Rick blushed and looked down on the old man.

"However, as a playwright, as a champion of the poet competition, and as the father of tragedy in the mouth of others, my personal preferences are not important. When I read your outline of Zachary for the second time with these identities, I may roar out almost every second. You see, your mind is not bound by our old things. You don't care whether it's one person, two people or three people. You directly need more than 50 people! "

"You tore our old things to pieces. One act play? Rough kicks and multiple scenes. Single stage? Throw away, place some sets and change the time and place of the stage, which is a wonderful Muse's inspiration. Poetry? All broken, all replaced with easy to understand words, so that people who don't know how to read can understand. You make us blush with practical actions. We playwrights always think that we represent the crystallization of human wisdom and always think that we understand the people's heart, but you let us know that we are so hypocritical. How arrogant it would be if ordinary people could not understand the drama! "

"Your words are not beautiful enough, but those words, including those repeatedly recited by Rick in front of me yesterday, have gone beyond the beauty of mortals and have the beauty of philosophy."

"Yes, escuros doesn't like it, but the poet competition champion and the father of tragedy like it crazy! Because I see completely different things, completely different lives! This life looks small and even ugly, but why should we refuse it? Just like, how can we kill a little ugly baby? What we should do is to sprinkle sunshine, carefully irrigate, and let time prove this new thing! "

"If time proves that this new thing is good for nothing, what can we lose? But if we stifle this new thing and the last time proves that it is wonderful, we will have a huge loss. "

"We are not the truth of the world, not the truth of anyone. Most of the time, we are not even our own truth. However, we often regard our ignorance as truth and standard, limit ourselves and others. "

The old man didn't care about Su Ye's and Rick's reaction. He was like reciting his own poetry and drama, gushing and expressing his views. Suye and Rick looked at each other. It is worthy of being a professional poet and dramatist. This novel has been translated by www.novelhall.com and if you are reading this somewhere, they have stolen our translation.
