Primitive, yet undeniably artistic.
The essence of costu wasn’t abandoned; instead, fabric as the main component was forsaken, filling the void with a multitude of small diamond-colored adornnts.
As the music played, the Dancer didn’t keep the audience in suspense, swaying gracefully onto the stage, displaying core strength with just the entrance move.
Combined with the allure of a mature woman, every movent was captivating.
To be fair, the performance wasn’t rough; the stage design was decent, and the perforrs were of good quality.
Even the accompanint was live, perford by a burly man with a thick mustache beside the stage.
Like others, Fu Qian’s gaze was focused on the Dancer in the center.
She had healthy, sun-kissed skin, a slender and toned physique, not overly delicate features, but her deep brown eyes exuded a wildness.
Yes, even though she wore heavy makeup, Fu Qian was certain she wasn’t wearing colored lenses; her expressive eyes were indeed deep brown.
As for the blue eyes ntioned — Fu Qian’s gaze fell on the visible navel.
It wasn’t painted blue but was instead embellished with two concentric circles centered around the navel.
Neither drawn nor tattooed, they were two thin tal rings, adhered with so fragrant material.
Even though no color was added to the inner circle, Fu Qian was quite certain that the proportions between the tal rings matched the "inviolable" layers on the outside.
"That truly is inviolable."
As he estimated, a voice beside him confird Fu Qian’s judgnt.
...
"Oh?"
Fu Qian turned his head, curiously observing the sowhat informal newcor.
In contrast, people around were not as composed.
Noticing the conversation amidst the noisy music, more than one person instinctively wanted to sit further away.
The reason was simple — the connoisseur was a woman.
She was young, with soft golden curls, wearing a white long dress, unadorned from head to toe, without any keepsakes, as if she was just out for an idle stroll to listen to music.
Indeed, she was even a familiar face, a singular young tourist who had comnted on previous performances.
Unexpectedly, soone seemingly a bit like a good girl had followed suit and left the group but just a little later.
One must compare; the previously captivating Dancer on stage seed coarse against her backdrop.
Such a character undoubtedly disrupted the performance atmosphere, causing not just one audience mber to beco distracted.
So much so that Fu Qian was curious about why the leader would let her out and why the venue’s operator would let her in.
"The costu is actually quite true to the original... When this profession first appeared, they did multitask so services...
"On the contrary, the adornnt on the belly is not that old."
But the person herself had no such awareness, interpreting Fu Qian’s reaction as an invitation to speak, she continued comnting on the performance earnestly.
"They say after the revival of this ancient profession, soone misinterpreted the aning of inviolability to signify their work’s distinction from the past...
"But soon, a further misinterpretation erged, claiming it could prevent the trouble of pregnancy...
"Furthermore, due to these complex and ambiguous anings, the adornnt seems to provide a different perception, thereby becoming a symbol of sensuality and a staple in this profession."
...
A sense of cultural vitality seed to be felt.
The young female team mber surprisingly possessed such profound historical knowledge, seemingly more researched than the leader, truly a delightful surprise.
Though the conversation was abrupt, Fu Qian did not seem indifferent, attentively listening to the sharing, feeling a deep impression.
Cultural symbols are inseparable from people, often soaked with human restlessness.
Such a visual enhancent has undergone a complex evolution.
The final result almost diverges from the initial intent.
Regardless, there’s once again a sense of experiencing the interconnection of "inviolable" with this city.
"But precisely because of this, the adornnt on the Dancer is not allowed to be painted blue, making it hard to say whether it still signifies the sa thing..."
Amid the reminiscence, the female team mber sighed as the music grew more intense.
"Yes."
As a person who valued reciprocity and principles, the enlightened Fu Qian nodded, giving an affirmative response.
"Why? You had confirmation before I spoke?"
Finally looking over, this reaction sowhat surprised the latter.
"Yes."
Fu Qian affird calmly, and for the reason—
[Current task updated: As the master of the "Third Cause," prevent any desecration of your authority]
The warehouse had already provided authoritative certification.
...
So was the blue eyes’ Dancer referring to this?
Apparently, given the proximity of ti and space, finding a perforr led to an imdiate task update, seeming like a continuation of the previous "seamless" comnt.
It seed those three concentric circles were the core, even without being painted blue, they still represented eyes.
Based on the companion’s description, if this decoration was now standard, then theoretically finding any Dancer would complete the task.
This further task sounded overly commanding.
The Third Cause... undoubtedly a strange term.
Based on the literal aning of the task, this even indicated a genuine authority.
It rely adhered to his previous evaluation, slightly abstracted.
Simultaneously, the task at hand was equally commanding — preventing desecration, as its master.
"And now?"
Her confident reply seed to sowhat stun the young female tourist.
The passionate dance reached its climax, and the other audience mbers adapted to the intrusion, beginning to focus fully.
Yet observing those tal loops seemingly alive, jolting on the rectus abdominis, she paused, finally asking.
"More certain now."
He sensed her particular emotion, but Fu Qian’s intrigue didn’t delve deeper; instead, he glanced back and studied for a few more seconds, nodding affirmatively.
Not random talk, at this mont, he was quite sure that the legendary inviolable referred to the "Third Cause" in the task.
The perception in his vision had fundantally changed compared to just now.
