Westland KTV luxury box.
Tang Xiu sat cross-legged in front of the guqin, gently stroking the top-quality huanghuali wood with his hands. The guqin is bright overall, with exquisite carvings and meticulous workmanship, and its seven strings are properly matched.
Guqin is the musical instrument with the highest status in Han culture. There are sayings that "a scholar never removes his qin and harp without any reason" and "the qin is left on the left and the calligraphy is on the right". It ranks first among the four traditional Chinese medicines of "Qin, Chess, Calligraphy and Painting" and is regarded as the most elegant representative by literati and elegant guests.
once.
Tang Xiu also has a guqin, which is the top immortal weapon in the immortal world. The wood is made of phoenix wood, and the strings are made from the decomposed tendons of a five-clawed golden dragon. They have been nourished by the essence and blood of a certain immortal supreme being for nearly ten thousand years, and tempered for hundreds of years in the Nine Nether Cold Pond and the source of earthly fire. Even an ordinary immortal, if he can get the guqin, can play music and kill immortals, even very high-level immortals.
"Tang Xiu, can you really play the guqin?"
Cheng Yannan came to the front of the guqin and asked with a curious look on her beautiful face.
Tang Xiu put away the memory and said softly: "Well, I have learned a little bit before."
There was a trace of contempt in Cheng Yannan's eyes, and he smiled and said: "It's okay, even if you don't play well and sing well, we won't laugh at you."
Yuan Chuling also followed suit and said: "Boss, we will never laugh at you. After all, if you can play a few times, you are considered versatile. It's a pity that you don't know the guitar. Otherwise, you would be so handsome and cool talking about the guitar to pick up girls. "
"Pfft..."
"whee… "
"hehe… "
Cheng Yannan, Xia Wanfen, and Li Xiaoqian were amused by Yuan Chuling's words.
The door of the private room was pushed open from the outside.
"I see you are very happy, what are you talking about?"
Chen Xiaofen looked at the five people in the room with a smile, her eyes somewhat scrutinizing, and finally fell on Tang Xiu who was sitting cross-legged.
Xia Wanfen stepped forward to greet him and said with a smile: "Aunt Chen, we are talking about Tang Xiu's piano skills! He is being humble to us..."
Chen Xiaofen smiled slightly and said: "He is the Tang Xiu you mentioned, right? At your age, there are fewer and fewer people who can play the guqin, and there are even fewer boys. Come, let me introduce to you, the three of them are mine Good sisters, they are all teachers at Jindian Conservatory of Music in our provincial capital."
"Hello teachers!"
Cheng Yannan's three daughters and Yuan Chuling all shouted.
Tang Xiu did not stand up, he just nodded slightly to Chen Xiaofen and glanced at Huang Jie and others. He was out for entertainment tonight, and he didn't want outsiders to join in the fun. But Chen Xiaofen is the proprietress of this KTV, so it’s hard for him to refuse.
"Leave as soon as possible."
Tang Xiu thought in his heart.
Huang Jie and the others frowned slightly when they saw Tang Xiu's appearance. They were used to the respectful attitude of the students, but suddenly they saw Tang Xiu's indifferent expression, which made them unhappy. However, in their eyes, Tang Xiu was just a passerby, and they just came to join in the fun.
The three of them sat down on the sofa at the other end. Huang Jie glanced at Tang Xiu, then looked at Chen Xiaofen and shouted: "Didn't you say someone wants to play and sing in the KTV? Why haven't you started yet? We sisters all play music. I can still point out those students.”
Chen Xiaofen could hear the teasing tone in the tone of her good sister, and was secretly amused. She was also surprised by Tang Xiu's attitude just now. At this moment, I naturally heard the dissatisfaction in the hearts of my good sisters, and prepared to educate Tang Xiu to stop him from being too arrogant.
In other ways!
Maybe these good sisters of mine can't educate Tang Xiu, but when it comes to music, they are definitely the authority at the moment.
Cheng Yannan and Yuan Chuling also heard the hidden meaning in Huang Jie's words, and turned to look at Tang Xiu.
Tang Xiu still had that indifferent expression, and in the end he didn't look at the three Huang Jie girls again. As the room became quiet, he lowered his head and looked at the guqin in front of him.
"Ding… "
Tang Xiu's slender fingers plucked the strings, producing a crisp sound.
next moment.
His flashing eyes were closed, his right hand plucked the strings, and his left hand pressed the strings to pick up the notes. His fingering techniques are very strange, with his right hand he rubs, picks, hooks, picks, hits, picks, rubs, and locks... His left hand goes up and down, forward and backward, backward and backward, chant, 猱,稨, kneeling, picking up, carrying, and grabbing. Lift, claw lift, bump, pull, hook, finger turn, rope bell, etc.
In the haze.
The fingers of Tang Xiu's hands traced the charm like flowing water, and the sound of the piano was whistling and falling. The slow rhythm outlines a desolate picture.
A few seconds after the sound of the piano sounded, Huang Jie, who was very disgusted with Tang Xiu, was stunned. The KTV proprietress Chen Xiaofen stiffened as if she was electrocuted. The pupils of the other two teachers from Jindian Conservatory of Music shrank and their eyes never moved away from Tang Xiu. Not moving anymore.
The notes that touched the soul made the four professionals with high attainments in music feel a sense of sadness in their hearts. They were drawn into a world of autumn wind and fallen leaves by the melodious music of the piano.
miss!
Homesick!
Missing relatives!
They seemed to see a wanderer, standing at the end of the winding path in late autumn, looking at the back of his hometown. They seemed to see a kind son full of filial piety, but he was forced to wander around in the desolate world, worrying about his loving mother in his hometown.
"Gold falls in autumn, and I miss my children with sorrow."
The low, hoarse voice blends in with the notes of the piano without any abruptness. A sad atmosphere, like rising smoke, slowly filled the air.
"The road to immortality is endless, but ambition is hesitant."
When the painting style changed, they seemed to see the road leading to the top of the mountain. The young man carrying the fairy sword on his back was struggling and moving forward. But it seemed that every step he took, he would turn his head and look.
"I ask the sky, I shout to the earth; I have traveled for thousands of years, traveled to the underworld, stepped on the nine heavens, and searched hard for the threshold of heaven. I have regrets in my heart, but my wish will never come true. I wish to regain the past."
For a moment.
The hearts of Huang Jie and Chen Xiaofen trembled. They seemed to be in a dream, as if they were transformed into the supreme immortal who descended from the underworld and ascended to the nine heavens. What they were looking for was the gate to heaven, the way to return home. lamp.
Sadness, pain, suffering, and thoughts.
The taste of thousands of sorrows lingers in their hearts. Two lines of clear tears had already slipped down their cheeks and wet their clothes.
Yuan Chuling was shocked. Cheng Yannan, Xia Wanfen, and Li Xiaoqian felt like they had goosebumps all over their bodies. They listened stupidly as the speed gradually increased from slow to fast, from slow to windy and rainy. Listening to Tang Xiu's initial He was low and hoarse, then roared and hissed at the back to vent his emotions.
Sitting in front of the guqin, Tang Xiu's fingers plucked the strings faster and faster. He seemed to have returned to the state of playing the guqin in the fairy world, and all his emotions were integrated into it. The difficult path to immortality and the feeling of missing family members are fully brought out by his piano music.
Time passes and the sound of the piano fades away.
Tang Xiu slowly raised his head, and in his slowly opened eyes, a trace of crystal tears spread out and dripped down the corners of his eyes. His blurry vision gradually became clearer. When he saw everyone in the box with tears streaming down their faces, happiness suddenly rose in his heart.
Yes!
**Happiness in my heart!
Once the Supreme Being of the Immortal Realm, if he was given a choice, he would rather give up his superior status and his amazing strength, and become an ordinary person and return to his mother, stay with her, accompany her, and wait on her bedside when she is old. , to support her until her death.
After a while.
Chen Xiaofen broke away from the world created by Qinyin. With her blurred vision, she looked at Tang Xiu's tearful but slightly smiling face. Suddenly, her heart palpitated. She was moved by the sound of the piano and captured by each note. She had never thought that there could be such a beautiful piano sound in the world, as if it was full of magic, and she couldn't help but be immersed in it.
Looking at Tang Xiu, she didn't know how to express her feelings. Thousands of words finally turned into two words: "Thank you!"
Huang Jie woke up from the aftertaste of the piano music. She glanced at Chen Xiaofen who had woken her up with some annoyance. After turning her head to look at Tang Xiu with difficulty, she felt such a deep sense of shame that she almost found a crack in the ground to crawl through.
just!
She even boasted that she wanted to give Tang Xiu some advice, but in the blink of an eye she was impressed by Tang Xiu's music. She is a professional musician and a teacher at a conservatory. She is a role model for others. However, she just looked at a piano master with disdain. This narrow-mindedness made her regretful.
"sorry!"
Huang Jie took a few steps forward and bowed deeply to Tang Xiu to apologize.
now.
Others in the box also woke up from a dream. They looked at Tang Xiu with shocked expressions, as if they had encountered the most incredible thing.
"Boss, you..."
Yuan Chuling moved his lips a few times, but his voice seemed to be stuck in his throat. He didn't even notice that his title became an honorific, which was a manifestation of respect and a kind of worship.
The tears in the eyes of Cheng Yannan, Xia Wanfen, and Li Xiaoqian passed away, but the tears seemed to have washed their eyes. They were particularly bright at this moment, as if little stars were emitting light. They had also looked down upon Tang Xiu's guqin skills before, because they had never heard Tang Xiu say that he could play the guqin before.
And at this moment.
The way they looked at Tang Xiu was like looking up at the superstar they admired in their hearts.
"This song should only be heard in heaven, how many times can it be heard in the human world?"
A teacher from Jindian Conservatory of Music looked at Tang Xiu with a complicated expression and sighed quietly.
Tang Xiu slowly stood up and said calmly: "It's getting late, it's time to go back."
"no!"
Chen Xiaofen and Huang Jie shouted in unison.
After the words fell, the two women realized their gaffe and quickly wiped away the tears from their eyes.
Huang Jie stood in front of Tang Xiu, looked at Tang Xiu carefully, and said seriously: "Your name is Tang Xiu? Are you a student of Star City No. 1 Middle School? Are you going to take the college entrance examination soon?"
"yes!"
Tang Xiu nodded.
Huang Jie said hurriedly: "You don't need to take the college entrance examination, come to our Jindian Conservatory of Music! My husband is the deputy dean of Jindian Conservatory of Music, and he has a special recruitment quota. You don't need to take any tests to come to our Jindian Conservatory of Music. Come and study, I guarantee you, there will be no problem..."
