Chapter 862: Nothing (Part II)
On December 17, it snowed in the capital.
This is the second snow in the capital since the beginning of winter, it began to fall in the morning and did not stop in the evening, and the snowflakes falling in the sky are getting bigger and bigger, and the TV station has broadcast a heavy snow warning.
It is expected that it will take two more days for the snow to fall, reminding the public to keep warm and pay attention to the safety of travel and traffic.
Today is Sunday, although it is already dark, but there are still people coming and going in the Xidan underpass, and the footsteps of pedestrians are hurried, and they all want to return to their warm homes as soon as possible.
Around the corner leading to the subway station, a trio band is still holding out.
The drummer, keyboardist, and guitarist-vocalist, who were dressed rather thinly in the cold, were clearly not willing to give up, despite the few coins in the guitar case on the floor.
The lead singer in a faded jacket stared silently at the passers-by, not many of them lingering for their performance, his eyes full of loss and unwillingness.
"Brother Gao..."
The keyboardist in the back shrank his head and shouted quietly, looking very hesitant.
The drummer next to him stomped his feet and rubbed his cold hands, looking very helpless.
The lead singer turned his head and barely squeezed out a smile: "Let's sing one more song, let's go back after singing, I'll treat you to hot pot in the evening!"
Hearing the word "hot pot", the keyboardist and the drummer were in good spirits, and the keyboardist nodded again and again and asked, "Which song to sing?"
The lead singer said, "Just sing the new song we just rehearsed last night." ”
The keyboardist and the drummer looked at each other, because the song that the lead singer said they only picked up the score yesterday and started practicing, and they rehearsed it a few times last night, so they are far from being proficient, is it appropriate to use it for cover performance now?
However, the temptation of hot pot overcame doubts, and there was no audience anyway, so it didn't matter if it was suitable or not, so the two nodded in unison.
The lead singer smiled, gestured at them, and then turned and plucked the strings hard.
Music plays.
After a passionate prelude, the lead singer raised his head suddenly, threw back his long hair, and opened his mouth to roar: "I used to ask endlessly, when will you go with me, but you always laugh at me, nothing!"
"I want to give you my pursuit, and my freedom, but you always laugh at me, nothing!"
"Oh... When are you going to come with me, oh... When are you going to come with me..."
He sang "Nothing", the title song of Luo Kai's third album "Nothing" released by Feixun Music two days ago.
As soon as this work was released, it was immediately loved by fans, especially rock fans, and it was praised a lot on the Internet, and many people considered it to be one of Luo Kai's best rock works.
Some people believe that the inspiration for the creation of "Nothing" should come from a few years ago, when Luo Kai was just a nameless singer squatting in the underground passage begging for a living, and the pain, loss and confusion brought to him by the pressure of survival and the helplessness of life are vividly revealed in this song.
It is also a rock song that belongs to Jingpiao.
Many insiders agree with this judgment, and many rock singers practice covering "Nothing" for the first time, including the three-person band in the Xidan underground passage at this moment.
"The ground under my feet is walking, the water is flowing around me, but you always laugh at me, I have nothing!"
"Why do you always laugh enough, why do I always have to pursue, is it that in front of you, I will always have nothing!"
Compared with Luo Kai's original singing, the lead singer is much worse in both singing skills and voice, and he has just learned and is not proficient, plus the same unskilled accompaniment, as a result, the singing is out of tune or even broken in some places.
However, the emotions he blends into the song are real, because the pain, loss and confusion that the work wants to express are exactly what he is portraying now, and he sings this song as well as himself.
His fingers swept over the strings over and over again, ignoring the pain in his fingertips, and whether anyone was listening at the moment, he forgot the cold, forgot the hunger, and was completely immersed in the world of the song.
"Tell you I've been waiting for a long time, tell you my last request, I'm going to grab your hands. You come with me. Your hands are shaking, your tears are flowing..."
At this time, the lead singer's tears were flowing, he didn't realize it, he was roaring with all his strength, pouring out the suppressed emotions in his heart, so unscrupulous!
Then when he finally finished singing, applause suddenly came from all around, neat and enthusiastic.
How long has it been since I've heard such applause?
The lead singer put down his guitar a little dazed, looked at the people gathered in front of him, and suddenly didn't know what to do.
Many people are holding mobile phones in their hands to shoot, and many people take out change from their pockets or wallets and put it in the piano case, or scan the QR code on it to transfer money and reward.
"Brother Gao..."
The voice of his companion behind him made the lead singer wake up suddenly, and he realized that his face was covered with tears that had become cold, and he suddenly felt hot on his face.
He hurriedly lowered his head, raised his hand and wiped away his tears as if he were wiping sweat, and bowed to the passers-by who gave the reward and said, "Thank you, thank you!"
"One more song!"
A word came from the crowd of onlookers.
"No problem..."
The lead singer hurriedly said: "The following song is also from Luo Kai's "Nothing" album..."
Looking at the thin layer of banknotes that had been laid out in the piano case on the ground, his heart was full of fire, and suddenly he was full of hope, and even the tempting hot pot was left behind.
That's where Luo Kai walked out!
He thought, plucking the strings again.
At this moment, the snow is falling even more outside.
The weather forecast is still very accurate, and this cold snap from Siberia is not only powerful but also very long-lasting, causing the snow to fall in the Gyeonggi area intermittently for three or four days, causing great problems to the traffic in the capital.
The thick snow not only turned the capital into a world of snow, but also clogged the streets, and the snowplows sent by the urban management and sanitation departments were not enough, and the slippery ground led to many traffic accidents.
On the 22nd, all schools in the capital were closed in advance, including Xia Hua Attached Elementary School, because in a number of traffic accidents caused by snow and frost, students were injured in and out of school, and a school bus almost overturned, although nothing happened, but in order to ensure the safety of students, the Education Bureau notified all schools to close the holiday in advance until New Year's Day.
On the morning of the 23rd, Luo Kai and Mo Lan took Niuniu together and came to the western suburbs of the village.

The second one is sent.
