Chapter 250: Smoke
A week passed, Lu Manwen became more and more irritable, she didn't expect Zhang Fanchong and Resentful Wuyin to be unceremonious people. She just said a kind word to let the old man live in her own house, but she didn't expect that these two people would not shirk and agreed.
That's good, the two-person world between her and Ji Tianci is gone. Ji Tianci can play all night long, during the day, he goes to school, and at night, he accompanies Complaining Wuyin to "play music", and has no time to accompany himself.
Not only that, after Zhang Fanchong went back the day before yesterday, there was another old man in Maoshan, the eldest son of Chen. This old man is a fairy and a good person, he doesn't matter when he comes, and he attracts a group of elegant old men to turn Lu Manwen's home into a teahouse and restaurant.
Tonight, the top floor of the Light and Shadow Art City is very lively, and a large group of "old artists" have come up on the venue outside the glass room. ”
The old men sat or stood, playing their own musical instruments, playing and singing everything, pipa, transverse flute, erhu, gourd silk...... It is all traditional musical instruments of the Nine Shadows.
The traditional instruments of Jiuyou were not very suitable for large-scale ensembles, no matter what kind of instrument they could stand alone, often accompanied by gongs and drums, but these old men used various traditional instruments to make a huge "symphony".
Different musical instruments outline the same magnificent picture of mountains and rivers, and each player is a mountain, and each mountain wants to compete with the heavens.
Two of the peaks stand out from the crowd, not only are they tall and tall, but the mountains are green and vivid, and the clouds are shrouded in mist. Ji Tianci and Yan Wuyin are people who break free from the shackles of musical instruments, especially Yan Wuyin, he completely broke the music theory of the guqin, and created many wonderful fingerings and melodies by himself, so that a master of the guqin only sighed and pushed the front waves.
Every time, Chen Changzi plucked the strings to start up, and then many musical instruments entered in unison. You must know that there are very few people in the world who can play with Chen's eldest son.
Many elegant people in the transcendent world of Zhongzhou heard that the eldest son of Chen came to the Light and Shadow Art City to play, and everyone came to visit one after another, wanting to listen to the song of "Qin Sheng".
Some instrumental masters wanted to play with Chen Changzi, but as soon as Chen Changzi's piano sound came out, everyone only lamented that the music was too high to play together. It's like a great painter who only sketches a few strokes on a blank piece of paper, but the other painters can't continue to draw because they feel that no matter how much they draw, they can't draw the charm of those few strokes.
At the beginning, there were more than 20 people who could play with Chen's eldest son, and when the qin music gradually got better, there were only seven or eight people left who could play together, and at the end of the song, only Ji Tianci and Resentment Wuyin could sing in harmony with his piano sound.
There are also many poets here, and at the end of each song, these poets are full of poetry, and you and I are fighting poems.
Lu Manwen has been completely reduced to a waiter, and the wine at home has almost been drunk, and what is even more infuriating is that after drinking the wine, these people still say that Western wine is not good, and it is not as delicious as Jiuyou Baijiu.
The eldest son of Chen was reluctant to leave in Lu Manwen's house, and the most said sentence was "it is difficult to find a bosom friend", he and the people who complained about the sound were all guqin, and it was rare to meet Ji Tianci, a master of the flute. Later, Chen Changzi said again, "It is enough to have a soundless drum and qin in the world", so he stopped playing the guqin and changed to play the 21-string guzheng.
Chen Changzi started to play, and there were still more than 20 people who could join in, but there was no sound of complaint, everyone picked up the instrument and put it down, not knowing how to enter it, and could only be reduced to the audience looking up to the height of the mountain.
Only Ji Tianci can calmly ensemble, even Chen's eldest son has also become an accompanist.
Lu Manwen is not hospitable, but Lu An is very hospitable. Lu An also lived in the Light and Shadow Art City during this time, watching these old-timers play chess and paint during the day, and listening to fairy songs quietly at night, and living a good life.
Nangong Lie, Li Xi and others also come here every night. Li Xi is purely an audience, he is here to find inspiration, and tailors also need creative inspiration. Although Nangong Lie is a famous musician, he still can't play in an ensemble. Chen Changzi laughed at him for being a politician, and his heart was not pure after mixing in officialdom for a long time, and his heart had distracting thoughts, and the artistic conception of playing was far behind.
In addition to these old men, only Li Fanzhi and Xiao Ming, who are familiar with Ji Tianci, can come here. Li Fanzhi is also a person in the art circle, but Xiao Ming just came to relax, and he has not been able to come out after his brother Xiao Chang was killed, and it was Li Fanzhi who forcibly pulled him here. Even Ye Xiangdong, an old professor who doesn't understand art, listens to it with relish here.
The moon and stars are scarce, and there are nearly 100 people scattered on the roof of the Light and Shadow Art City, everyone is sitting around the stone table in twos and threes, and there is a jar of fine wine on the table.
Dozens of stone tables surround a "stage", and there are less than ten people on the stage, not only from Zhongzhou, but also from the whole nine musical instrument masters.
The audience shook their heads when they listened, no one said anything in the song, and everyone sighed at the end of the song, "This song is only because of heaven." ”
The beautiful scenery of the good day, the fairyland fairy song, these old men have forgotten where their home is. Fortunately, Nangong Lie was here, and he not only brought a large amount of Jiuyou wine, but also arranged a good place for these elders to live for them during this time.
For Nangong Lie, this is a good opportunity, the old people who came here are all highly respected people in the Nine Shadows Transcendent Realm, and they are close to the set, so as to prepare for Yulun to take over as the guardian of Zhongzhou in the future. If it weren't for Yu Lun and Ji Tianci having a bad relationship, he would definitely bring his granddaughter here to show her piano skills.
At this time, there were only two people sitting on a stone table in the corner, two mortals, Ye Xiangdong and Xiao Ming.
"Xiao Ming, if you can't drink, don't drink, it's all extraordinary here, how can you drink like them. ”
"Professor Ye, I have often dreamed about the scene when my brother was killed recently, and if I don't drink more, I'm afraid I'll have nightmares again. ”
"Didn't I give you some powerful sleeping pills?
"Well, the effect is not obvious, do you still have 'smoke' there?"
"Smoke? That's for the transcendental, haven't you used it too much?"
"It doesn't matter, didn't you also say that the smoke has no side effects, I want to take it back and try it. ”
Ye Xiangdong thought for a while: "Okay, it's not too early, you can go back with me to get the smoke." Drinking less alcohol in the future is not good for your health. ”
★★★
Half an hour later, the two appeared in Professor Ye's basement.
Professor Ye handed Xiao Ming a bamboo tube the length of his index finger, which looked like an ornament.
"You open it carefully, just smell it once at a time, and don't open the cap in public, because it can fascinate the whole square. ”
"Okay, I see. ”
★★★
Xiao Ming returned to his home, he went into the bedroom and locked the door, but he didn't plan to use the smoke, he knew the power of the smoke very well. This smoke is colorless and tasteless, and is made from trace elements extracted from mandala flowers. In fact, Professor Ye also has a more advanced version, the misty soup, a liquid state*, which is also colorless and tasteless, and mortals will suffocate to death within half an hour of drinking, and B-class transcendent will be in a coma after half an hour.
Xiao Ming carefully put the smoke into a small suitcase.
The walls of the bedroom are covered with photographs and paper materials. The top photo is a photo of him and his brother Xiao Chang, and the information below is all related to the Temple of the Gods, as well as a lot of route maps.
Xiao Ming stared at Xiao Chang's photo, his eyes showing determination, "Brother, I will definitely make them pay!"
