Chapter 98: A song of fairy souls, bosom friends are hard to find
In the rockery flowing water, pavilions and water pavilions, and in the pond of the courtyard zhōngyāng, a few koi fish flick their tails and swim, and from time to time they surface with a few small golden bubbles.
The wind blew from afar, wrinkling the water of the pool, breaking the branches and leaves, and also blowing the ends of the hair of the people in the pavilion.
Chen Siran was unaware of everything around her, she sat quietly in the pavilion of the pond, her slender and delicate fingers, sometimes soft and slow, sometimes like a storm, according to the music score placed aside, carefully playing.
"Zheng Zheng...... The sound of the piano ...... Zheng Zheng poured out from between her fingers like gurgling water, like a golden iron horse, like a cold wind, and like a gentle murmur between lovers.
Chen Siran never knew that there would be so many changes in a piece of piano music, all kinds of changes, and thousands of changes, intertwined, interlocking, and endless.
Although she has put her best effort into playing this score, and has gradually comprehended the thousands of different variations, it is still too difficult and difficult to perfectly integrate such a thousand variations.
This couldn't help but make Chen Siran a little discouraged, she felt that she was really stupid and had failed Jiang Feng's kindness.
Thinking of this, Chen Siran sighed softly.
On a bluestone path leading from the gazebo to the backyard, a figure walked quickly, a middle-aged maid with a steaming breakfast in her hand.
"Miss, you've been sitting here all night, eat something and go back to your room for a while. The middle-aged maid said with concern.
"Aunt Wu, I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, go and get busy with you. Chen Siran said softly.
"But miss, you're going to exhaust yourself like this. The middle-aged maid named Aunt Wu said worriedly.
Chen Siran said softly: "No, I'm such a big person, I will take care of myself, Aunt Wu, don't worry, I know what I'm doing." ”
Aunt Wu is still a little uneasy, but she also knows that Chen Siran is soft and gentle on the surface, but in fact she is very assertive, and she is strong and stubborn, which is definitely different from the weakness she appears on the surface.
If it weren't for such a xìng grid, it wouldn't be because I had to play a good piece of music and would not have been sleepless, eating or drinking.
Aunt Wu didn't know what kind of special meaning that piano score had for Chen Siran, but she also knew that Chen Siran did this, naturally with a purpose of doing so.
I didn't bother anymore, put my breakfast aside, and left lightly.
Chen Siran didn't notice when Aunt Wu left, she didn't feel how tired, if she wanted to say tired, then it should probably be the so-called tired.
After meeting Ji Yan at the door of Jiang's house that time, Chen Siran got the news that Jiang Feng was missing, she didn't know what the concept of disappearance was at first, but then she heard Ye Qingxuan talk about some things, and it was rumored that the Qin family and the Li family had caused a big disaster.
Chen Siran didn't care about what Jiang Feng did, the only thing she cared about now was Jiang Feng's safety, because in her opinion, no matter what Jiang Feng did, there should be a reason.
Jiang Feng is not a cruel person, nor is she a person with bad intentions, on the contrary, after getting acquainted with Jiang Feng, she was once attracted by Jiang Feng's style of dealing with the world.
What an unruly and proud man he was, but how could such a thing happen?
Chen Siran had thought that if possible, she would do her best to provide Jiang Feng with some help, whether it was for Jiang Feng to go abroad or to help Jiang Feng solve the current trouble, but the trouble on Yanjing's side was more severe than she imagined, and that was not something she could interfere with.
She couldn't do anything, but Chen Siran didn't want to be idle like this, she felt that she should be able to do something, so she found out the raw gift that Jiang Feng gave her at the raw banquet, that is, the score of "Immortal Requiem".
She decided to take advantage of Jiang Feng's absence in Yanjing to work hard to be able to play this music smoothly and perfectly, and when Jiang Feng came back, she would play it to Jiang Feng, which could be regarded as living up to Jiang Feng's good intentions.
Although she didn't even know if Jiang Feng would be able to come back, from the bottom of her heart, Chen Siran was not willing to give up, this was her last sustenance.
Taking a light breath, Chen Siran kept himself absolutely awake, meditated to comprehend the changes in the "Immortal Requiem", and stroked the strings with his fingers again, and played quietly.
In this way, I don't know how long it has been, Chen Siran finally sighed softly, and with her sigh, there was also a faint sigh behind her.
Chen Siran was slightly stunned, turned his head back, and found that in the pavilion, I don't know when, there was a more figure, the figure was wearing a purple sè long dress, and the black hair like a waterfall fluttered and scattered behind her head, without rouge, beautiful and dusty, the wind wrinkled her skirt, making her seem to be going to volley away at any time, and the beauty was suffocating.
Chen Siran didn't notice when this person appeared at all, but after seeing the appearance of the person who came clearly, he immediately let out a small exclamation in his mouth, got up, and said in surprise: "Sister Ziling, why are you here." ”
The girl named Ziling smiled slightly and said, "I've been here for an hour, and you haven't noticed me." ”
Chen Siran said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'm too fascinated, no, I'm too ......" Speaking of this, Chen Siran didn't know how to go on.
Ziling said for her: "Actually, you don't have anything, but you are too attentive, once people are too obsessed with something, it will be easy to let out the jīng spirit, I see that you are very tired now, you should go back to sleep." ”
Chen Siran shook his head and said, "I can't sleep." ”
"Is it because of this music score?" Ziling asked suspiciously.
Chen Siran nodded lightly, there was a little more frustration in her eyes, Ziling knew at a glance that this was indeed the case, and at the same time, she was also curious, she asked, "I don't know if you can show me." ”
"Yes, sister, you are good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, maybe some pointers, you can give me some inspiration, or not. Chen Siran said.
Ziling picked up the piano score and looked at it, looking at the name a little strangely, it was actually called "Immortal Requiem", she sighed so much, could this piece of piano make the immortals ** can't do it?
But then after looking down, Ziling was shocked and gasped, her beautiful eyes widened, and she couldn't believe it, she asked in a lost voice: "Siran, who gave you this piano score?"
Chen Siran said: "It was a gift from a friend of mine who gave me a raw gift. ”
"Shengrì gift, is actually a raw rì gift?" Ziling sighed again, what a big stroke, there would be someone who would take this kind of thing as a raw rì gift and give it out casually, doesn't that person know what kind of jīng beauty this piano score has?
After thinking about it for a while, Ziling just felt that there was such a possibility, because she had just listened to Chen Siran play for more than an hour, and Chen Siran was always out of tune, out of tune, and scattered some scattered sounds, although they were not lacking in beauty, they were still enough to be fascinating, but obviously they did not understand the jīng essence of "Immortal Soul Song", and even ten percent of the artistic conception could not be expressed.
In other words, the person who gave "Immortal Requiem" to Chen Siran as a gift did not explain these things to Chen Siran, otherwise with Chen Siran's intelligence, he would never have played so badly.
But Ziling still asked, "Si Ran, can you sue me, who gave it to you?"
Chen Siran didn't know why Ziling asked this, because she knew that because of her identity, Ziling was not a person who liked to get to the bottom of things, on the contrary, Ziling had always been a detached being, if she hadn't met Ziling by chance when she was a child, she would not have been qualified to know someone with such an identity at all.
After a little hesitation, Chen Siran said, "His name is Jiang Feng." ”
"Jiang Feng?" Ziling had never heard of this name, and felt that it was a bit ordinary, and said, "Can I meet him?"
Chen Siran's voice was slightly astringent, and said: "I guess I can't see him, he has already left Yanjing, I have been trying to contact him, but I can't get in touch, perhaps, he will not come back." ”
Ziling sighed secretly for the third time, but it was a pity, the person who could give such a gift to Chen Siran would definitely not be an ordinary person, even if it was an ordinary person, he must have had some adventures.
Ziling just didn't ask any more, she took the "Immortal Requiem" and watched it for a while, and the person was already unconsciously sitting in Chen Siran's position just now, stroking the strings with both hands.
With Ziling's onion-like fingers beating on the strings like dancing, Chen Siran was surprised at first, then shocked, and finally completely immersed in it, unable to extricate himself for a long time.
She practiced "Immortal Requiem" for a long time, and never knew that "Immortal Requiem" could be played like this, compared with Ziling, she was simply playing with children, and it can be said that she just touched the threshold.
Chen Siran's mind trembled with the sound of the piano, and all kinds of pictures flashed in her mind, lingering love, the pursuit of immortality, the yearning for immortality, the uninhibited soul, and the heart of an immortal strongman......
Gradually, in the corners of Chen Siran's eyes, there were two lines of crystal tears, which slowly slipped down.
It turned out that this was the true meaning of "Immortal Requiem", Jiang Feng didn't lie to her, but Jiang Feng didn't bother to explain it to anyone, because any explanation was blasphemy.
Only ten minutes later, with a crisp sound of "Zheng", Ziling's fingers flicked away, and a string broke, Ziling lowered his head, looked at the broken string in a daze, and then looked at his severed fingers, for a while there was a strange feeling that he didn't know what day it was.
Her performance is only less than a tenth, and with her comprehension ability, she has only comprehended three or four tenths of this "Immortal Requiem", although it is so, but it also has a deep sense of powerlessness, otherwise the strings will not break.
Just as Chen Siran had all kinds of associations, the moment the piano sounded, countless reveries inevitably arose in her mind, and those reveries, even on a certain Cheng dù, subverted her outlook on life.
"Become an immortal, become an immortal, but in this world, is there really an immortal? If so, where?" his eyes closed quietly, and Ziling's heart was shocked beyond measure.
……
Five minutes later, Chen Siran and Ziling returned to the room, and neither of them said a word about what happened just now.
When Aunt Wu saw Chen Siran coming back to rest, she happily closed her mouth, and hurriedly made two cups of teacups to make room for Chen Siran and Ziling to talk.
"Sister Ziling, why did you come to Yanjing this time? Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for three or four years. Chen Siran asked at this time.
Ziling drank tea, was silent for a while, and said softly: "Something happened, my mood is a little chaotic, I just happened to pass by Yanjing, and I wanted to come to see you." ”
"What happened?" Chen Siran recalled the sigh he heard in the pavilion, and at this time, he only felt that the sigh was so resentful.
Ziling was silent for a while before she said abruptly: "Siran, I seem to have killed someone." ”
"Killing?" Chen Siran's beautiful eyes widened, he didn't know how such a thing could happen, he was startled, and then said: "Sister Ziling, I know that you are not an ordinary person, but you never bully people, if you kill someone, then you will also kill a bad person." ”
Ziling smiled bitterly: "I don't know if he's a bad person, because I don't look like a bad guy in his eyes, or I don't even know if he's dead." Because he killed five people, and he wanted to kill my little black, I did it with him, and I didn't think about killing him at the time, but I thought he was too hateful, so I wanted to teach him a lesson, and then he ran away, and I chased for a while, but I didn't catch up. ”
Chen Siran didn't feel so scared at this time, and said with a smile: "Then what does he look like, why don't you think he is a bad person?"
Ziling embarrassedly described the person's appearance, Chen Siran thought he had heard it wrong, and asked Ziling to say it again, making sure that he had heard it correctly, and then said in a lost voice: "It's not good, that person is Jiang Feng, Sister Ziling, you must be mistaken, he will definitely not be a bad person." ”
Chen Siran was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that he had just learned something about the true meaning of "Immortal Requiem", and such a thing happened, and his heart was in chaos in an instant.
"Jiang Feng, is it Jiang Feng who gave you "Immortal Requiem"?" Ziling was also stunned for a while, she didn't expect things to be so coincidental.
Chen Siran said hurriedly: "If you are not wrong, I am not mistaken, that person must be Jiang Feng, but how could he go to Changbai Mountain and be injured by you." ”
"I don't know. Ziling was silent, she was collecting medicine in the canyon that day, and she also met Jiang Feng by accident, she didn't know who Jiang Feng was, she had never killed anyone, and after thinking that she might kill Jiang Feng, she couldn't help it.
"No, I'm going to Changbai Mountain. Chen Siran felt that something was not right, no matter why Jiang Feng went to Changbai Mountain, but Jiang Feng was injured by Ziling, and it was very likely that he would be in danger.
Ziling felt more and more guilty in her heart, faintly realizing that she seemed to have really made a mistake, and said embarrassedly: "Siran, I'm sorry, I still have something to do, I can't go with you, if you find Jiang Feng, please contact me, I will personally apologize to him and compensate for the losses caused to him." ”
Chen Siran nodded absentmindedly, saying yes in his mouth, but at this time, his heart had already flown to Changbai Mountain!
