Chapter Eighty-Nine: How Do You Know?
After blowing a song, I couldn't help but play another song of Chen Yue's "The Wizard of Oz". This is the last Xun song I learned with Mr. Dong before going abroad. The original song of "The Wizard of Oz" was "Pipa Yin", and Chen Yue changed it to a solo performance of the dong flute. Mr. Dong changed it to Xunqu again, and the sadness in it was increasing.
There should be no more sorrowful-sounding Chinese instrument than Xun. The depressive effect is first-class, and Chen Yuyao once said that only the Western cello can compete with each other. The two play together, and it is estimated that it is "Black Friday".
After hearing his statement, I laughed at the time, "You also know Black Friday? ”
"Yes, I know that too." Chen Yuyao didn't respond to me quietly, "It's not Black Friday on Wall Street, it's Black Friday for the global banned song." ”
I thought it was an exclusive memory of our generation. Probably when I was in junior high school, I heard that someone committed suicide after listening to "Black Friday". At that time, there were a few bold classmates in the class who said they wanted to give it a try, and although I was curious, I was never one of the darers. Just like when I was in elementary school, someone played pen fairy and wanted me to join in to make up the numbers, but I resolutely refused, so I was ostracized by my peers in Jinxi Town.
I don't blame them, I gave up and melted into that circle myself.
They hate me because I give them the impression that I think they are naïve, but it's purely because I'm timid.
I shy away everything related to death.
Later, Rosary came to my house on a weekend and said that she was going to show me a movie soundtrack so that I could listen to it. I don't have a sense of music appreciation, but the rosary that understands music theory actually allows me to appreciate and listen to my opinions, and I suddenly feel honored.
Then she put my headphones on and stood there undisturbed, but looked at me intently. I listened to it with great interest, took off my headphones and expressed my appreciation: "It's a little sad, this movie is a tragedy, right? ”
"Uh......" the rosary's mouth opened slightly, "you, you don't have any other feelings?" ”
Isn't it pure sadness? Sadness with a hint of joy? I'm sorry, I can't feel more.
So I shook my head at the rosary, "It's gone." ”
The rosary said at this time, "You listened to "Black Friday". ”
What the? Is it the global banned song that is said to be suicidal if you hear it?
Although I was still standing unscathed, the expression I looked at the rosary must have been very cold, because she was at a loss, "Hurry, rain......
Then I heard my own voice say indifferently, "What do you mean by telling me this?" ”
"Don't get me wrong, Torrential Rain." The rosary stammered, "I've heard it myself, so I told it to you." However, I couldn't listen to it halfway through......"
"Who knew I was done?" I interrupted her lightly, "If something happens to me, you're at best careless." Right? ”
"No, it's not." The rosary hurriedly took my hand, "I was wrong. It's raining, don't be mad at me. ”
But I still keep a straight face, it's a little ridiculous when I think about it now, and I was very afraid that this piece would have momentum. I thought to myself that I just listened to it now and didn't feel it, what if this song suddenly came out to ask for my soul at night? I hated the rosary and thought she was murdering.
"You go back." I said to the rosary. This is the only time I have given an eviction order to the rosary at my house.
The rosary looked gloomy, but seeing that I could no longer listen to the explanation, she picked up her schoolbag and left.
That night, I kept wearing headphones and using the MP5 single to loop JJ Lin's "Immortal Body" to resist "Black Friday". I fell asleep in the middle of the night, and when I woke up, the MP5 was out of battery and turned off.
I looked at the one meter of sunlight that came through the room, and I felt like I was finally saved. Now that I think about it, it was really silly back then.
After I came back to life, I didn't feel so weird about the rosary. But she was still very guilty, and somehow she got a photo with Lin Junjie's autograph and sent it to me to apologize. What reason should I not forgive her?
After the reconciliation, "Black Friday" has always been a taboo topic. As a result, it wasn't until one day in her freshman year of high school that she took the initiative to reiterate the old words to me, saying that the "Black Friday" rumored on the Internet was fake, but it was actually "Melancholy Sunday". Composed by the Hungarian musician Rurans Charles, the background is a breakup with his girlfriend, so the tune is also sad, but not to the point of dying of depression.
The real Black Friday was ruined back in 1945. But its legend has never stopped in the rivers and lakes, and it is said that the original name of this piece of music was "Magic Music", and it was not composed by one person, but by a group of music masters.
It uses infrasound waves and other means to stimulate the nerves of the cerebral cortex, and the human brain and infrasound waves with a frequency of 20HZ can resonate, so it cannot be restrained by willpower. When I heard this, I was amazed. I think that group of people may not be music masters, but executioners in white, following the methods of life sciences and using music to break people's nerves.
Killing people invisibly is a more clever means in the rivers and lakes than flying flowers and picking leaves. I felt terrible at the same time, but I couldn't help but feel a little reverie. But it only began with a reverie, if this piece was really in my hands, I might be able to sell it for a good price, but I would never try it.
The reason why Chen Yuyao is angry is not because I underestimate his artistic involvement, but because I dare to secretly call him an "old man".
I haven't heard "Black Friday", so the most I've played today is "Melancholy Sunday."
I hadn't played Tao Xun for a long time, and I found that I had a few notes that were wrong, so I had to stop and think about it and blow it again. No, change it again.
It was at this time that Little Brown exclaimed, "What is this black thing you are blowing?" Kind of like an ocarina. ”
"Xun." I thought about it for a moment and explained it to him in English, "One of the oldest wind instruments in China is also made of clay, and as for the shape you can see, like an egg. ”
"More than the melody of the ocarina—sadness." Little Brown looked at me steadfastly, "Teresa, have you ever experienced anything particularly sad?" The kind that no one talks to. ”
I thought about it for a moment and replied truthfully, "Hmm." Experienced. ”
"Then you can tell me." Little Brown looked at me sincerely, "I'll share it for you, and keep it a secret for you." ”
"Nope." I shook my head, "You also said, 'No one to talk to'." The grief that can be expressed in words is not considered 'particularly sad'. ”
Little Brown was stunned, then a little lost, and even a little angry, "You just don't want to talk to me." ”
I didn't deny it, and smiled slightly, "You haven't been hurt lately, have you?" "I'm referring to the fact that he plays with flying cars.
"Isn't it stupid that I'm still falling after all this time?" Little Brown said angrily.
"Yes." I said, "You're not stupid at all. You're one of the few smart boys I've ever met. ”
"Very few?" Little Brown repeated my wording, shook his head slightly, and blinked his thick eyelashes: "Isn't it 'the most'?" ”
"Humility." I said, "There is a very subtle and reserved culture in Chinese culture, and even in England, gentlemen consider humility to be a virtue. ”
"Gentleman?" Little Brown scoffed, "You seem to have the impression of staying in the Verolia era. ”
Little Brown is dissatisfied with the old Brown's practices, but in fact, both grandparents and grandchildren have a common substance - "pride". Well, the arrogant description of old Brown is very apt, and little Brown's youthful spirit may be more suitable for him. I appreciate the confidence and sunshine in him, but I know that confidence can also be gentle, and sunshine can also be warm.
Zhai Yi is the most gentle and gentle teenager I have ever met. His words, I dare say 'most'. As I was talking, I saw Kelly coming back from the window pushing Qiqi's cart.
Qi Qi no longer sat in the car, but leaned on the side of the car, stumbling and walking, but sprinkled the "giggles" laughter in the abundant sunshine of the London summer morning. I still hold Tao Xun in my hand, but my mood has become soft and light, and I believe that the same is true of my face.
Because Little Brown said, "There is a deep motherhood in the Oriental woman, and when she is shrouded in it, she is very ...... Charismatic. ”
I turned around, put Tao Xun into the black lacquer box, stood up and looked at Little Brown, with a "please" in my eyes, I can't wait to welcome my Pokémon Pokemo
。
“Mommy!” He smiled at me, revealing two white front teeth.
To him, "Mommy" is my name, just as little Brown is called "Jeffrey", Kelly is called Kelly, and caregiver is called "Becky".
"Qiqi!" I always called his Chinese name first, then English, and I crouched down towards him, "pokemo."
! ”
He stumbled, but instead of throwing himself into my arms, he gave me the car as a gift.
"Thank you!" I smiled and interacted with his expression, and Kelly couldn't help but smile as she asked me, "Ma'am, what's going to be for dinner?" ”
"Just call me Teresa." I picked up Qiqi and walked in front, responding to Kelly's words, "Is Mr. coming back today?" ”
"No, according to Steward Jean, he came out of the winery in Kent and went straight to the airport, flying to Shanghai, China."
"Oh." I entered the door and put Qiqi down again, "Jeffrey is home today, you ask him if he has anything in particular you want to eat." I don't want to eat a lot of food at night, so you can make me a sandwich. ”
"Okay. It's supposed to be for you. Kelly said, looking upstairs.
I saw that she was carrying the food in her other hand, so I said, "I'll go and ask you, what does Jeffrey want to eat?" ”
"Okay, thank you—Teresa."
Qiqi opened his hand to me again, and I carried him upstairs, and when I entered the door, I found that Little Brown had opened the black lacquer box at some point, and wanted to play Tao Xun just now, but his face turned red.
"Hey!" I was upset, "How can you mess with my stuff......"
Before he could finish speaking, Little Brown was startled by my sudden appearance and grabbing bag. As a result, he threw Tao Xun to the ground in a panic, "OMG! (Oh buy karma)
Qi Qi learned his tone and also shouted, "OMG! "Laughing heartily.
Only I was so angry that I put Qi Qi on the bed, walked over to inspect it, and found that there was a crack in it, although it was extremely thin, but strictly this Tao Xun had been destroyed.
"Yes, I'm sorry." Little Brown hesitated, "Next time I go to China, I will definitely find a way to buy you another one, buy a 'Xia'."
’……”
He didn't even remember the pronunciation of Xun. I couldn't help but snatch Tao Xun over, and squeezed out two words from between my teeth: "Get out!" ”
"What?"
“Get out!”
"Teresa," Little Brown wiped his face with one hand in annoyance, "listen to me, and I'll pay you back." You don't have to be ......."
"You can't afford it." I said, "This Tao Xun was given by my former lover." I never had the chance to see him again in my life. Even if he lives, I live, but there is a sea of people between us, and we will never see each other again. I choked up, "What do you pay?" Tell me! ”
I rarely had such a gaffe, not only Little Brown, but even Qiqi noticed that I was in a very bad mood, crawled towards me with his hands and feet, and pulled at the corners of my clothes. Just such a small gesture softened my heart.
“So
y。 Little Brown whispered again, paused, and asked in Chinese: "Is the lover you are talking about called 'Yao'?" ”
"What?" This time it was my turn to be surprised, he immediately repeated, I thought for a moment, my eyes widened, he said it was "Yu Yao", but the pronunciation was not accurate. "You, how do you know?"
