Chapter Forty-Eight: The Bird That Protects the Short
The houses arranged by the disciples of the Qin Sect for Qi Qi and Xuanniao were next to each other, and not long after they moved into the house, someone brought them a meal, and they took care of them very thoughtfully.
After Qi Qi finished eating, he stayed in his room and meditated, and not long after, there was a knock on the door.
Bumper.
"Qi Qi, it's me. β
The delicate voice of Xuanyao sounded outside the door, Qi Qi got out of bed and opened the wooden door, these houses on the mountain are all made of wood.
"It's so late, haven't you slept yet, you're going to take the retest tomorrow," Qi Qi said with a smile.
"I... I think... I'm going to sleep with you...", Xuanniao said with her head down and blushing.
"How can this be? Don't say stupid things, go back to sleep!" Qi Qi said with a smile.
"That's... Before..."Xuan Niao looked at Qi Qi and asked puzzled.
"Before, I had to have no other wings, once to protect you, but now we are under this Qin Sect, very safe, you don't have to sleep with me anymore. You are an innocent girl, if you say it, people will scold me for defiling you," Qi Qi explained.
"But... I'm not afraid of you defiled..."Xuanniao took a step forward.
But at the same time, Qi Qi also quickly took a step back, his hand still pressed on the doorknob, and did not let Xuanniao in.
"It's not early, go back to sleep, don't say stupid things," Qi Qi said seriously.
Xuanniao looked at him, stunned and speechless, and after a long time, Bei Yan bit his red lips and turned his head away.
Looking at the back of Xuanniao's departure, Qi Qi also lost his mind for a moment. After a while, he sighed, closed the door, and sat back on the bed.
He knew what Xuanniao meant to him, and she made it clear. But feelings have always been a matter of mutual affection, wishful thinking has no good results, even if he forcibly stays with her, in the end, it will only hurt her, and it is a sad thing for her.
The longing for love depends on the pity of others, she will not be happy, and he will not be happy.
Alas... Forget about me.
Thinking like this, I also fell asleep.
In the early morning of the next day, after breakfast, Qi Qi, Xuan Niao, and a group of examiners who participated in the re-examination were led by the disciples of the sect to a flat land in the mountains.
The sight here is open, the radius is dozens of zhang, surrounded by lush greenery, the air is filled with a faint fragrance, and the sun shines straight down, which is very bright.
Everyone saw that there was a stone platform on the east side of the flat land, on which were already sitting two elders of the outer gate, one was fifty or sixty years old, male, with gray hair, and the other was also fifty or sixty years old, female, and was full of energy.
The male is Elder Ge, one of the Seven Outer Gate Elders, and the female is Elder Ye.
There is a re-examination every day, and the seven elders take turns to preside over the overall situation, and today it is the turn of the two of them.
Of course, the Qin Sect recruits more than Baiqin City, and the disciples in the sect will also go to other cities to recruit disciples, and those who have passed the initial examination will be brought to the sect for re-examination.
Under such a large-scale enrollment, there are as many students as carp crossing the river, but fortunately, the Lingqin Mountain is vast and can fully accommodate it, and the seven outer gate elders have been tempered by vitality or true qi, and they can also bear it.
In the order of first come, first served, the first batch of 100 examiners sat on the flat ground in a staggered manner, with a wooden bench under their buttocks and a wooden table in front of them, on which was placed a guqin set according to their requirements.
At this time, Elder Ge on the stone platform on the east side spoke, he is also a person who is well versed in the rhythm of music, his voice is extremely thick, covering a platform dozens of zhang wide, "Congratulations on being able to pass the initial examination and participate in the second examination, since you are sitting here, you are a person who loves and understands the qin, as long as you can pass this level, you will be a disciple of my Qin Sect in the future, you can enjoy all the cultivation resources in the sect, concentrate on studying the qin skills, and there are also brothers and sisters of the same sect to communicate with each other, as well as the elders and seniors to teach in person." One day, maybe you can climb to the top of the piano road and win the top of the rivers and lakes!"
What he said meant was that the hundreds of assessors on this platform were full of blood and high morale, and their eyes were full of light.
Yes, since you are sitting here, you have a heart to win the qin, who doesn't want to join the big qin sect in the rivers and lakes, study the qin dao, and win the rivers and lakes?
Elder Ge said again, "It's not difficult to say that this retest is difficult, and it's not easy to say that it's simple. I will give you a word, and you will improvise a song according to this word, and play it, the rhythm is intriguing, and if Elder Ye and I are satisfied, you can officially become a disciple of our Qin Sect. β
"Do you understand?"
"Understood!" replied in unison. But the answer is very simple, but everyone's face is also a touch of bitterness, everyone has always been used to playing other people's tunes, but not yet to the level of being able to compose their own tunes, even if you insist on making a song that is satisfying, I'm afraid it will not be possible to do it in three or five days, but right now...
Elder Ge's eyes were sharp, and when he saw the bitter color on the faces of everyone in the audience, he smiled slightly, and said, "My topic isβYe!"
As soon as these words came out, the hundreds of assessors on the flat ground were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly began to think about how to express the word "leaf" through the sound of the piano.
And the female elder surnamed Ye next to Elder Ge heard this, she couldn't help but blush, looked at Elder Ge, and said angrily, "The surname is Ge, are you deliberately embarrassing me?"
Elder Ge hurriedly waved his hand at Elder Ye and said, "Don't dare, I just saw that the leaves in and out of the mountain were blooming very lush today, so I planned to use the theme of 'leaves' and let them improvise a song." β
Elder Ye rolled his eyes and pursed his mouth, "If you want to cover up, I still don't understand your little bit of careful thinking?"
Elder Ge laughed, "Since you understand, when will you promise me?"
"you! Be a teacher, so disrespectful!" Elder Ye turned his head and said angrily.
"Hehe, hehe," Elder Ge also withdrew his gaze, smirking to himself, and turned his gaze to the hundred assessors on the flat ground.
In the crowd on the west side of the flat land, Qi Qi and Xuanniao were standing, looking at the hundred examiners who were thinking, Qi Qi couldn't help asking, "Xuanniao, is it feasible for you to improvise the composition that the predecessor said?"
Xuanniao looked at the hundred assessors, did not look at him, and said, "I can." β
Qi Qi retracted his gaze at Xuanniao, and said with a slight smile, "Then I'll rest assured, after all, what kind of improvisational composition I see seems to be quite difficult for those hundred assessors." β
"Don't worry, don't kid yourself!" At this moment, a female voice sounded nearby.
Qi Qi and Xuan Niao couldn't help but have a trace of astonishment on their faces, and looked at the man.
It was a woman with long narrow eyes and thin lips, and when she saw the two of them looking at her, she sighed again, "Who doesn't know the difficulty of improvisation? No one dares to pat his chest and say that he can handle it easily." She pretended to be relaxed, but she just wanted to comfort you, if you really believe it, then you have something wrong with your brain!"
Hearing this, Qi Qi didn't show much emotion on his face because of the woman's sarcasm, just smiled faintly, and wanted to withdraw his gaze, but a hand pressed on his arm and stopped him.
It was Xuan Niao who stretched out her hand and pressed it on his arm, she first glanced up at Qi Qi, handed over a gentle gaze, and then looked at the snarky woman, her bright autumn eyes suddenly became cold, and her slightly squinted eyes had a striking edge.
Now that she lives in Qinzong, she has changed into the pink gauze skirt she is used to wearing, and she has a slender figure and a delicate face, with this just right pink skirt, she is charming and bright.
But at this moment, because of her cold eyes, all the gentleness on her body disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by extreme coldness.
Being glared at by Xuan Bird like this, the woman's feet involuntarily took a step back, and her heartbeat missed half a beat for a moment, but then she also reacted, realizing that she was so frightened by the other party's eyes, she was furious, but before she could speak, Xuan Bird had already taken the first step to speak.
"Why are you so bitter and nosy, slut? What does it matter if I talk to him?
Xuanniao has always been gentle and kind, even when he is angry, he wants to cry, I see pity, but now... So Qi Qi was stunned.
It's still... Does he know the Xuanniao?
Good... It's so strong!
As soon as Xuanniao's words came out, it inevitably attracted a lot of attention from the surroundings, and there were more people watching the excitement for a while.
The woman was stunned, then gritted her teeth and said, "You... What do you say?!How dare you scold me?!"
Xuanniao sneered, "Didn't you scold people first?
The woman also sneered, "Am I wrong in what I said? This improvisation is so difficult, but you say it so lightly, isn't it a brain problem?"
"You can't, don't think that others can't do it either, it will only show that you are short-sighted and have never seen the world," Xuanniao said as he looked directly at the woman.
"Oh, don't be ashamed to say it! It doesn't cost anything to brag anyway, of course you can say whatever you want?" the woman laughed.
"Yes, that's why I think you're like a frog at the bottom of a well, sitting in a well and watching the sky. I've seen idiots, but I've never seen you like an idiot who has never seen the world, it's ridiculous and generous!hehe!"
The smile on the woman's face froze, and then she gritted her teeth, her eyes flashed with anger, and she pounced on the Xuanniao, "You slut! I'm going to tear your stinky mouth apart!"
All of a sudden, the woman and the Xuanniao were entangled together, the two pulled each other's hair, tore each other's clothes, and wanted to embarrass each other, but each other pulled each other's hair too hard, causing both sides to look a little hideous.
When everyone saw this, they also laughed, and it was not a big deal to see the excitement.
"Hit, hit, hit me!"
"Pull her, pull her hair off!"
"Spit on her! Don't just pull your hair!"
"Haha, women fighting, it's really a strange phenomenon in the world, hahaha!"
The two of them were scuffling with each other, their clothes were a little untidy, and they didn't care about their image at all.
Suddenly, there was a "poof".
"Ahh
An ear-piercing scream sounded, and the woman's face was hideous, baring her teeth, which was a force in the hand of Xuanniao, and she ripped off a piece of her scalp rawly, and blood splattered out, slightly terrifying.
Immediately after that, there was another "snap", and Xuanniao slapped the woman in the face, beating the woman dizzy, and she fell back, and in an instant, a scarlet and somewhat delicate palm print appeared on her face.
Xuanniao sneered, "Hmph! Scold my man, look for death!"
Everyone saw that the girl in the pink skirt in front of them was so spicy at the moment, which was completely inconsistent with her image, and they couldn't help but look a little exciting.
Hehe, if you can also get such a short-term and extremely beautiful woman, let them live ten years less, oh no, twenty years, or even thirty years!
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Just as such a thought flashed in everyone's hearts, a burly man rushed into the crowd, hugged the woman who was covering her scalp and whimpering, and asked urgently.
Seeing the shocking tragic situation of the woman, the man immediately became angry, like a mighty tiger.
"Woo, Xianggong, that woman scolded me, beat me, and ripped my hair, you see, I was slapped by her here, she is really spicy, I can't fight her, woo, Xianggong, you have to make the decision for me~!" The woman was crying and threw herself into the man's arms and cried.
Such pear blossoms with rain, and the words are so true, but let the surrounding people open their eyes, and their hearts are amazed, if they are not here from the beginning, know the truth of the matter, I am afraid that they will really believe this woman's nonsense.
Oh, a woman's heart, it's really like a needle under the sea!
"What? How dare she do this to you?! Okay, I'll tear off all her hair for you, and make her lose face!" the man said, placing the woman behind him, and his face was hideous, and he panted and pounced on the bird.
Xuanniao was horrified, who knew that if he hit a small one, there would be a big one, and his feet fell back, and his pretty face turned slightly pale.
At this moment, the man pounced in front of Xuanniao, and reached out to slap Xuanniao's face.
Touch!
With a muffled sound, the man suddenly fell out like a broken kite, and crashed headlong into the big tree not far away, embarrassed.
"Who dares to touch her?!"
Qi Qi who was protecting in front of Xuanniao.
He shouted coldly.
