Chapter 187: Songs of Sorrow and Joy
In any case, as long as one of the friends who can "call" Yu Lian appears, it means that there are at least ten nearby. Although the absolute proportion is not so exaggerated, everyone just needs to grasp the spirit.
Sure enough, after three minutes of touching melons along the vine, Yu Lian actually dragged out more than a dozen friends, all of whom were members of the Red Side's crew. There are the maintenance team members under the command of the technical house trio, the three flight students who partner with Li Bao, and the muscular male friends of Kou Shan.
EisenFrench swore to Yu Lian that they really had just come to the celebration. It was really just a misunderstanding to meet Her Excellency the Captain and Stormtrooper and Her Majesty Queen Chang'e here, and then pressed Tamir and Bai Ziya's heads to apologize seriously.
Tamir and Bai Ziya also said seriously that they were really not "calling", but were about to shout "Captain Yu", but they didn't expect to be so misunderstood.
Kou Shan and Li Baolu almost cried, pointing to the stars in the sky and swearing that they didn't want to run away when they saw the captain, but simply wanted to see the world.
Yu Lian was very pleased.
Tech nerd trio is just a fan of online chats; Kou Shan is the most uneducated of the cadres on the ship, and because there is no famous name to pass down to future generations, it is estimated that he is only an R at most; Li Baolu is an avid flying nerd, but he is a bit shy in private. And these young people, who didn't know each other more than two months ago, now get along very well, like friends for many years.
"I'm so grateful!" Yu Lian was touched by everyone.
Everyone on the red boat was even more moved.
"So, today I give you a reward! Accompany Fei...... Accompany Her Majesty Queen Chang'e and Her Excellency Stormtrooper to play magnetic balls. ”
Everyone looked at each other, a little moved.
After all, they are all young and have not been shaved off, and it is the time when the aesthetics are normal and the blood is strong. They don't dare to think about the favor of the goddess, but there is no problem with playing ball and playing with the goddess, right?
Even decades later, it can be remembered as the best memory of youth, and then surrounded by virtuous wives and filial children, he will pass away with a smile.
"Then, my words ......" Kou Shan cautiously raised his hand, then looked at Gongsun Qing, and instantly recalled the memory of being knocked down by someone else's one hand in one round, and shuddered: "I am a member of the stormtroopers, of course I want to join Miss Gongsun's side." ”
"Well, then I'll ...... Miss Fina, can I? Tamir said cautiously. He is different from the big fat man Eisen and the small animal Bai Ziye, and he is a technical nerd trio who is really keen on physical exercise. It is said that he is also the ace player of an amateur magnetic ball club in their hometown, and among the gray men, he can be regarded as strong.
Fei Fei glanced at Yu Lian and nodded with a smile.
The latter result is very flat, Fei Fei is just an ordinary person after all, no matter how good her ball skills are, no matter how good she can calculate, she can't stand up to the opponent's strength. Fortunately, she also knows to let her partner go up when she encounters danger and try to protect herself.
Of course, the process is so beautiful that I don't even know how to describe it, so I won't repeat it.
Anyway, we know that Fei Fei was very happy from beginning to end, and Gongsun Qing finally consumed a little bit of inexhaustible physical strength, so he was not so aggressive.
"Thank you!" Fei Fei was drenched in sweat, but she also thanked everyone in general.
"It's so useless! You men! Gongsun Qing's face was not red, and he said loudly to everyone without panting. After playing ten high-intensity magnetic balls, for her, the physical strength is not as good as ordinary otaku doing a bicep curl of ten kilograms.
Of course, after ten games, although everyone once again confirmed that the psionics were really not the same species as themselves, the relationship was inexplicably much closer. As a result, Miss Gongsun also decided to no longer concave her count's daughter and the character of a future star, and completely let go of her nature.
Except for Yu Lian, the boys were submissive and laughed together, but they didn't even have the strength to speak.
The crew will hate themselves even more in the future, but Yu Lian swears to the spirit of the universe once again that he is definitely here to leave everyone with such beautiful memories of his youth as playing ball with the goddess.
Of course, in order for everyone to recover from Fang Cai's emotions as soon as possible. He decided to engage in team building and brush up on loyalty or something, so he took everyone to Chang'e Center for a big meal.
"I, can I call Martha?" Li Baolu asked in a low voice. He probably felt a little bit too late, his face flushed, and he hung his head down.
"Martha? Who is it? ”
"Miss Martha Dyken, Mr. Vane on the other side, their blue pilots! The chief of this year's Keane Flight Academy, but Mr. Wayne specially dug it up, and said that she will definitely be the most destined ace pilot in the country and even the whole universe. Fina laughed.
Yu Lian searched for this name carefully and determined that he had never heard of it in the future, either he died early, or he changed careers, or he did not make achievements commensurate with his student days.
Of course, the 830 Party's vision of people should not be too bad, and that girl will definitely be a tricky opponent in the exercise.
However, looking at Li Baolu's stupid face with a bright spring, probably don't worry too much.
"Call it." Yu Lian said with a smile: "Everyone has friends like Baolu, so call them too." ”
In the midst of cheerful laughter, the future "Forward Eagle" hung his head shyly and happily.
So, in half an hour, a dozen people became thirty, and a small dinner party became a small gathering.
Martha Dyken is a tall, handsome, down-to-earth and generous girl, but she is a bit straightforward about people and things, and she has become a pair with a shy straight man like Li Baolu. It can only be said that there is really a providence in the dark.
In addition, in addition to her, there were a few girls who belonged to the blue side.
This is youth! Yu Lian said with emotion.
Everyone had dinner until two o'clock, and they were still unsatisfied, so they decided to participate in the parade that followed.
This spontaneous celebration of the people officially began at three o'clock. However, before that, the town square was already lively. Many street artists are facing more than ten times more audiences than usual, trying their best to attract the attention of the audience.
Gongsun Qing still didn't seem to be satisfied, looking at the musical instrument shop next to him and rolling his eyes.
"Or, Fina, let's set up a stall too. I'll play the piano, you will sing, and see who of us attracts more guests. In the evening, there will be funds for the event. ”
"I can't sing! And I don't know much about musical instruments. Fei Fei was just about to say something, but at this time, on the side of the square next to her, a desolate cry accompanied by music suddenly sounded.
The cry was full of wild penetrating power, as if one could see the endless grasslands and towering mountains in an instant. In that cruel, yet vibrant, natural environment, intelligent life is struggling, growing and struggling.
Yu Lian stopped, and when he heard the voice, he was greeted by a tall, thin, round-headed, hairless, four-arm alien race.
That's the Lumina, one of the minorities of the Blue Star Community. Of course, it is also one of the ethnic minorities who were forcibly matured by other empires in the era of galactic exploration.
The luminian's skin was close to black-gray, like the color of the ashes burned out. According to the physiological characteristics of their ethnic group, this is a symbol of entering old age.
"Our forest is burning!"
"Our long river is breaking down!"
"Lumina's descendants, still mourning, when will it be the end!"
The old Lumina, in the stiff lingua franca of the earth, uttered such a sigh, as if singing, as if singing. His rhetoric is not very literary, but it is quite rhythmic and penetrating, and it soon attracts many tourists to stop and watch.
The four arms of the old Lumina played the drums, sighed, and sang loudly, as if one had become a band.
Then, seeing that more and more tourists stopped, his voice gradually became excited. Yu Lian knew that this was the war song of the Lumina people, who sang this song against the empire back then, and now, they are also singing this song against the community.
Of course, their rebellion has been concentrated in the remote sectors. Most of the citizens of the Community have no sense of reality at all, and they do not even have much prejudice against the Luminians.
…… But it must be admitted that the Lumina people are really a very rebellious race. In the same way, their songs are really good.
Yu Lian shrugged his shoulders and squeezed out the crowd of onlookers, and then sure enough, he saw a self-discipline guard machine falling from the sky.
"Citizens of the Community, warn, warned, you are setting up your stall without permission from the market authorities. In accordance with the Guanghan Market Management Law, we will confiscate your commercial items. ”
The old man did not resist, patted his ass and stood up calmly, allowing the machine to confiscate his drums, pianos and other props. However, he took a few steps back, directly turned on his terminal, and called up the microphone function, without music cooperation, he called the battle song a hundred turns and a thousand times, high-spirited and enthusiastic.
This time, there was nothing the security machinery could do. There's no reason for them to stop people from singing, right?
The onlookers and citizens began to applaud, and Yu Lian's friends also began to applaud and cheer. People don't really understand what the old people are singing, and even many people can't help but be ruminarians, but they like to see the embarrassing scenes of the government's violent organs.
As if by juggling, the old man took out two more small drums, hung them around his waist, and gently beat them to the accompaniment. His singing voice once again shifted from high to tragic and desolate.
At this moment, everyone finally felt his senses, the glitzy noise, and there was a short pause here.
Yu Lian watched this scene in the crowd, and his mood was a little complicated.
If he was just a young officer who was about to graduate from a military academy, it would be easier. Just treat the Luminals as unruly anti-system elements, and be vigilant against them at all times.
However, when he returned from the afterlife, he had mixed feelings for the Luminians.
They used to be comrades-in-arms of the earthlings, and now they have become enemies of the earthlings, but in the future, they have become comrades-in-arms again. It's not that this four-armed fighting race naturally likes to jump sideways from side to side, it's just that the world is changing, and ordinary people are really overwhelmed.
Yu Lian felt a slender little hand holding him in the crowd, it was a familiar touch, a familiar temperature, and when he turned his head slightly, he saw a familiar smile.
"I don't really like that kind of singing." Although Fei Fei was laughing, her voice was still a little low.
"yes, it's everyone's holiday." Yu Liandao.
He gave Fei Fei a color, went straight to a nearby musical instrument shop, and a few minutes later came out with an acoustic guitar.
Under everyone's unclear gaze, Yu Lian reached out and plucked the guitar, the six strings sounded in unison, and a few cheerful notes suddenly floated in the voice.
Once joy is injected into a tragic tune, even if you want to be tragic, it will not be tragic.
The old man Lumina stopped singing and glared at Yu Lian. The face of this race is smooth, there is no nose bridge, no hair, and the cheeks are covered with a hard carapace, but the expression can still be seen. Obviously, he was quite dissatisfied with Yu Lian, who had brought his own rhythm, and grinned viciously, and the several drums hanging from his waist seemed to turn into meteor hammers at any time.
"When did you learn the guitar?" Fina raised her eyebrows, seemingly a little surprised.
"You can learn this kind of thing if you want to." Yu Lian said with a smile.
Psionics, except for those martial arts factions who sacrifice their IQ, basically learn things faster than ordinary people, and musical instruments are naturally one of them. Anyway, it's much easier to play with six strings than to block bullets and beams of energy with a sword.
Of course, it's just the skill that learns quickly. The contagion, empathy, and subtle rhythmic sense necessary to go from musician to maestro depends on the individual's talent. However, the current Yu Lian only needs skills.
“Aye! Aye! Sweet potato! Yu Lian sighed twice.
"Sweet potato?" Fei Fei said with a smile.
"It's in Spanish...... Well, forget it, let's just switch to Lumina. Yu Lian glanced at the old man Lumina in the distance, and his bad taste began to burst, and his smile was full of change...... Abundant emotions of change!
What's even more pleasing is that the pronunciation and intonation of Lumina are at some times quite similar to Spanish, thanks to the spirit of the universe.
As for the rhyme of the lyrics or something, when the rhythm is cheerful and joyful to a certain extent, it is a floating cloud.
"Yes, you know I've been watching you for a while, and I'm going to dance with you today!
Look, your eyes are calling to me fervently!
Guide me to your heart, rain or shine! ”
Yu Lian began to sing while stepping on the rhythm of the music. He sings one of the Latin Divine Comedies in his previous life, known as the easiest to get everyone excited and dance. He also felt that the current occasion was especially suitable for singing this song. Moreover, it is more appropriate to sing it in the luminian language.
Fei Fei laughed, gently took off her high-heeled sandals, stepped on the ground twice with her bare feet, and began to dance...... No, at this time, the word is not very appropriate.
Her movements should be in harmony with the cheerful rhythm, and each movement is full of a very oppressive sense of rhythm and excitement. Her dance moves were as enthusiastic as fire, but her face was expressionless and cold as ice. Ice and fire, mystery and power, condense into a charm that is impossible to look at.
This is Fei Fei that Yu Lian has never seen before.
And at this moment, Gongsun Qing simply took off his shoes, and also joined the battle circle barefoot and danced.
Two great beauties of the same level, the same graceful posture, similar dance steps with great courage, and the storm intertwined with fiery rhythm and cold temperament, at this moment, it is like the collision of stars.
This is a war for the two of them......
But why should they go to war? Yu Lian didn't quite understand. In addition, it was the first time he knew that this nightclub-style song could also make a war dance feel like it! Sure enough, the capable can do anything! He was sure again, at least in terms of artistic talent, that he and the two girls were very far apart.
Of course, maybe it's because they're all good girls, but in the end, the fighting dance turned into a dance, and the two finally had more enthusiastic smiles on their cold and arrogant faces.
The previous impact like a storm and waves gradually stopped, but more of it seemed to be under the summer, and the bright atmosphere of the Gold Coast brought more and more passers-by into this joyful mood.
The friends on both sides of the red and blue sides joined in the dance, even Bai Ziya of the small animal department, Eisen, the shy Baolu, and the old-fashioned Martha were all pulled in by their friends.
Later, it directly became a square dance for thousands of people!
Yu Lian saw the old man Lumina, who was beating the beat, although he didn't join the dance.
"See! This is the soldier who surrenders without a fight! This is the power of the great unity of the people of the universe! Yu Lian provoked Old Man Lumina with his eyes.
Old man Lumina stretched out an arm, gestured a middle finger to Yu Lian very earthly, and simply beat the drum to himself, and played for Yu Lian.
Sure enough, in this universe, the only thing in common is mathematics and music!
They had a very happy afternoon, and when it was almost evening, all the pairs were ready to move, and all the eyes that were not pairs began to breathe fire.
Yu Lian decided to respond to public opinion and follow the good stream, and immediately announced his disbandment, which received a burst of cheers. But when everyone left, they found themselves in the situation of the morning, and they came back.
The only difference is that since the beginning, Fei Fei and Gongsun Qing have been holding hands, completely like a pair of good sisters who have been best friends for more than ten years.
The future Miss Sword Saint sighed generously, and stuffed Fei Fei's hand directly into Yu Lian's hand: "Forget it, you better go and go with Fei Na yourself." I have delayed you for a day, and now I am all guilty. ”
She left with brisk steps, and seemed to be in a good mood.
Yu Lian and Fei Fei were silent for a moment, and glanced at each other, with a smile and tacit understanding in their eyes.
Then, it was indeed the time for the two of them, and Yu Lian was very familiar with this atmosphere, so there was no tension.
They found a small restaurant and just like that, they started it
"Speaking of which, Fei Fei, the place where you interned last year was in the New Eden System, right? It's pretty close to the Runa system. ”
"It's only two jumps, and it's really close. The army next door to me fought against them. I did do a little bit of my homework, too. In fact, the people of Lumina are not monolithic, and there are still many places to do work. They were indeed brave and heavily influenced by their own religion. But they are human beings after all, so they have the need to be human beings.
It's just that the officials sent there by the Community Government have never seriously understood their demands, either thinking about covering the lid, or thinking about embellishing their exploits with a little head......" Fina's voice was a little heavy, and she wanted to continue, but she seemed to think of something again, and stopped, and a pair of peach blossom eyes narrowed with a smile again.
"Although the fish is ambitious, I am very happy and willing to help you. It's just, fish, are you sure you want to discuss this kind of problem with me at such a time? ”
Well, even a nervous person like Yu Lian has to admit that now is really not the time to discuss this kind of issue.
After dinner, it was just getting dark, and the atmosphere of revelry in the city was even more enthusiastic. Now it seemed too much to go back to school, so the two simply went to watch another movie.
I watched the latest theatrical version of Yu Lian's favorite "Raiders of the Lost Ark" "Gray Ark". Yu Lian felt that Professor Jones, who had reached the ninth generation, was really handsome, a bit of a sven scum dressed like a beast. Of course, it must not be as handsome as me.
In addition, I don't know how many Girl Joan is still very beautiful, but she is far worse than Fei Fei.
However, when the movie was about to end, the soundtrack actually had a bit of a rumina's war song, which immediately reminded the two of them of that happy afternoon.
"By the way, Yu'er, what do you mean by that song just now?"
“…… Uh, isn't that nice? ”
"Heh, don't you understand Lumina?"
If it was ten years ago, it would have been a story of hotel opening and mahjong play, right?
