Chapter 39: Requiem for the Ensemble
"Requiem?Is that the song you and Ji Ruoyun rehearsed?By the way, why didn't you see Ji Ruoyun with you?" Zhang Chumo looked behind Qin Xiao and asked.
"Ruoyun may have something to delay, I'll give you the tune, when are you free?" Qin Xiao's tone seemed to be a little impatient. After seeing Zhang Chumo's puzzled eyes, two blush slowly rose on Qin Xiao's face,
"When I was young, I was corrupted by evil things, and there was a residual evil poison in my soul. Ever since my cultivation stagnated two years ago, I knew that if I didn't wash away the evil poison, my cultivation would stop there.
Originally, it didn't matter, but recently the aura has recovered, and if I don't use the Requiem to wash away the evil poison, the path of cultivation in this life will be cut off. I finally found Ruoyun who has a sense of heaven and earth aura, but she is not a member of our Qimen after all. Today, you are a soul-calming song, which really surprised me. I wonder if Senior Zhang is willing to help with this?"
"You saved my life that day, and it is incumbent on you to do small things. You don't have to give me the song, I heard your rehearsal the day before yesterday, and I practiced at home at any time. Zhang Chumo patted his chest and assured loudly.
The reason why he dared to boast about Haikou like this was that he had already been recognized by the Heavenly Dao Divine Wheel in his mind. After listening to their rehearsal that day, the Heavenly Dao Divine Wheel had already recorded the Requiem. With the experience of the Heavenly Dao Divine Wheel, it was easy to cooperate with Qin Xiao to wash the soul.
"Okay, there were some episodes, our host suddenly had an appendicitis attack, so the next program will be reported by me to all the teachers and students present, hello everyone, I am Jin Kaiyan from the second class of information! Next, let's welcome Qin Xiao with warm applause, and bring us the repertoire of the piano and flute ensemble——"
Jin Kaiyan temporarily took over the hosting work, so he didn't know that Qin Xiao had already stopped acting. When the words came out, the backstage staff instantly knew that they were going to have bad dishes.
It was difficult to recover from the water, and when the students of the whole school knew that it was Qin Xiao's show, the atmosphere was pushed to the top in an instant. Cheers and screams came one after another, if Qin Xiao boycotted the performance at this time, this theatrical performance would be the biggest failure in the history of Jiang University.
"It seems to be a coincidence...... Zhang Chumo looked back at the eager audience and showed a sunny smile at Qin Xiao.
"It's okay, fellow Daoist, please!" Qin Xiao's gentle smile bloomed, and at that moment, she seemed to be intoxicated with the whole world.
In the enthusiastic cheers, when the backstage staff was sweating profusely. Qin Xiao and Zhang Chumo walked side by side, and at that moment, the two of them were like angels with wings on their backs in the eyes of the backstage staff.
"Qin Xiao, it's good that you're here...... Is the track still going on normally?"
"Well, thank you guys!" Qin Xiao nodded, and the staff quickly hugged the guzheng onto the stage.
And Zhang Chumo and Qin Xiao came on stage side by side, which made all the students present burst into screams in an instant. Ten minutes ago, no one knew who Zhang Chumo was. But after a song of soul suppression, Zhang Chumo's name will become a legend of Jiangda.
And Zhang Chumo and Qin Xiao played a song together, which is estimated to become a glory in the history of Jiang University. When the two of them came to the stage and stood still, the entire stadium instantly fell silent.
Zhang Chumo silently came to the microphone, "Ji Ruoyun has something to do, so this time I will cooperate with Qin Xiao to play the ancient song Requiem, I hope you don't mind!"
"Mind the fart, I'm waiting for you—"
"Zhang Chumo-Zhang Chumo-" For a moment, a neat cry echoed in the sky.
Zhang Chumo silently turned his head, smiled at Qin Xiao and nodded. Qin Xiao's face instantly became solemn, his fingers swept like flowing water, and a trace of imperceptible nervousness flashed in his eyes.
"Fifteen years...... Hope to ...... this time"
"Zheng Zheng Zheng-" The stirring guzheng suddenly remembered that the moment the first note was issued, the earth-shattering noise suddenly stopped.
The sound of the piano is like flowing water, flowing from the high mountain streams. Just as the piano was sounding, suddenly, a flute sound appeared like dust, filtering out the dead leaves and roots in the stream.
The moment the flute sounded, the whole song was sublimated at that moment. All those who heard this ensemble instantly had an epiphany-like enlightenment, and their hearts were opened to accept all things in heaven and earth.
They couldn't see or feel it, but Zhang Chumo clearly saw countless glowing light points like fireflies floating from the distant sky, dancing in the tune.
Looking at the aura flowing around him, Qin Xiao's hanging heart gradually let go. looked at Zhang Chumo's back, and also showed a strong sense of gratitude. silently closed his eyes, and let his spiritual power turn into flowing water to wash his soul.
"Requiem...... It's really a requiem...... I can't think of this kid...... You can do this without even starting your cultivation...... No way...... I can't help it......" On the roof of a tall building outside the stadium, a slightly gloomy figure silently stood on the railing with his hands behind his back.
His eyes seemed to have crossed the years, staring at the two people performing on stage, to be precise, staring at Zhang Chumo who was pretending. Although the sound of the flute is emitted by the Heavenly Dao Divine Wheel, others don't know it. In the eyes of everyone, this flute sound was made by Zhang Chumo.
The layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway. A song to wash the soul needs to be tightly tailored to the changes in the aura of heaven and earth. Then, you must have a delicate spiritual perception ability. Therefore, Zhang Chumo does this as an ordinary person, which is enough to make people feel incredible.
"Master, that girl is about to break through!" The voice of the Heavenly Dao Divine Wheel sounded in Zhang Chumo's mind.
And at this moment, the aura of heaven and earth in Zhang Chumo's eyes suddenly became agitated, surging towards Qin Xiao behind him like a wild bee and butterfly. Qin Xiao, who was originally washed by the spiritual power of heaven and earth, suddenly became ethereal and unfathomable.
"Entering the Dao realm? so young...... Is...... It's really terrifying......" The old man standing on the roof of the building in the distance suddenly had round eyes, and his face showed an expression of disbelief.
"Damn, I actually broke through the Dao realm...... No, the evil assura must be born immediately, otherwise ...... The consequences are unimaginable......"
When the song ended, when everyone fell into that fluttering immortal enlightenment, Qin Xiao also completed the soul washing and cleared the evil poison. As soon as the evil poison was gone, the soul was shining brightly, and the cultivation that had been stagnant for three years had stepped onto a new level.
"Senior, thank you!" When he walked side by side with Qin Xiao, Qin Xiao suddenly thanked Zhang Chumo with a solemn face.
"What's the point of worrying, compared to your life-saving grace to me, what is this matter?" In fact, Zhang Chumo wanted to ask for apprenticeship, but at this time, he felt a little like asking for favors. After hesitating for a long time, Zhang Chumo still felt that he would find an opportunity to talk about it.
"Sent it...... It's really ...... Master...... A thousand merits...... A thousand points, ah......" Suddenly, Zhang Chumo's mind sounded with the sound of wild laughter of the Heavenly Dao Divine Wheel as if he was crazy.
