Chapter 51: Wear and tear
"Rock 'n' roll comes from Fontaine, and when I come into contact with this kind of music, I feel like my whole body is on fire, it's like it's alive, every note is beating, the crazy plucking strings, it's like lighting a fire, it's burning."
Xin Yan held her guitar and introduced rock music to Shi Lan.
The girl who was sobbing sadly just now was gone, replaced by Xin Yan, whose whole body was shining with sparks.
She asked, "Shi Lan, do you usually listen to any music?" ”
"I'm ......" Shi Lan thought for a while, "is it a story, or an opera." ”
Xin Yan shook his head: "Those are traditional operas, not music." ”
"What is rock 'n' roll like?" Shi Lan was quite curious.
"Dancing all the time! Dance to the rhythm to release the depression in your heart and feel the baptism of restlessness. Xin Yan thought about it, and decided to let Shi Lan feel it for himself: "Like this." ”
"Which one?" Shi Lan was puzzled.
He watched Xin Yan stand up, and after a simple tuning, he closed his eyes and began to brew emotions. Then, she raised her right hand high and opened her golden eyes, and her whole person radiated with unparalleled confidence, as if her whole body was burning with fire.
Shi Lan exclaimed: "This kind of aura transformation! It's amazing! ”
"Sing for the revolt!"
The aura of the spicy fire burst out in an instant, the air around her gradually warmed up, her fingertips crossed the strings, and a violent melody exploded!
The sudden appearance of rock music caused passers-by to stop, and they looked around, wondering who was playing the sudden music.
The tourists from Fontaine were shaken and the fatigue of shopping for days disappeared in an instant.
"Little song from my hometown?"
"Who's playing rock 'n' roll?"
At this time, Xin Yan had completely entered her rhythm, her whole body was swaying with this hot rhythm, her fingers were getting faster and faster, and the rhythm of rock and roll was becoming more and more rapid.
Shi Lan was stunned for a moment.
He had never seen such a novel entertainment before!
From the very beginning of Xin Yan's playing of the piano just now, he was shocked, and wave after wave of rhythm continued to hit his heart.
He only felt his temples pounding suddenly, his blood pressure rose sharply, and even the breath in his body began to tremble.
Shi Lan wanted to cover her ears, but felt that it was too rude, and muttered, "This voice...... It's so noisy......"
Rock music came to an abrupt end.
Xin Yan's smile stiffened on his face, his left hand pinched the guitar handle tightly, and his knuckles were pinched white.
The confidence and happiness just now are like a bird with broken wings, falling straight into the bottomless abyss.
"It's so noisy! Are you making noise! ”
"Daughter, can you learn a little... Good? ”
"Xin Yan! If you play it again, I'll burn that piece of wood of yours!" ”
"What a fierce big sister, will you eat me? ......Uhh Don't, big sister made such a horrible sound......"
Xin Yan bit her lower lip tightly.
She had heard too many people accuse, not understand, and even insult.
But in her heart, she always thought that the older generation did not know how to accept new things and was stubborn, children who were too young could not understand what rock and roll was, and her peers were unwilling to play with her.
She thinks that perhaps people who are as passionate about life as she are will be able to understand her.
Shi Lan's first impression on her was very good, she wouldn't blame herself if she was bumped into by herself, and she also gave him back the guitar to herself, such an open-minded person should be able to understand herself.
"It's too noisy......"
This noisy word pierced his heart like a needle.
Xin Yan felt that it had been so long that she had already told others that she could ignore the matter of arguing, but this time it was different, this was the denial of her peers.
"It's over, I seem to have said the wrong thing again...", someone has some bit of self-knowledge.
She clung to her guitar and stood there blankly, like a flower with nowhere to run in a storm, as if the guitar in her arms was the only thing that could protect her.
Xin Yan lowered his head, and his voice was like a thin mosquito: "Is this really the case, I should have known it a long time ago..."
Shi Lan hurriedly comforted her, but she didn't know where to start: "I am actually, that Xin Yan, don't you ...... Yes! Who threw me? ”
A heavy book smashed on top of him.
"Shi Lan! You're too bad at talking! ”
A fierce voice came, accompanied by a light smile like a silver bell.
"Who!" Shi Lan turned around and looked angrily at the two people standing on the side of the road.
But when he saw who it was, that little bit of anger immediately vanished.
Ke Qing stood on the stage, looking down at Shi Lan condescendingly, crossing her waist, very dissatisfied, "Big stupid! Still so can't speak! ”
It's really noisy, but how can you say it!
Yun Jin next to her stopped laughing and said gently: "Shi Lan has always been like this." ”
"Keqing, Yun Jin?" Shi Lan was surprised: "Why are you two together?" ”
Keqing and Yun Jin? This combination is rare.
Yun Jin squinted her eyes and said cutely: "I, I came out to relax when I had nothing to do, and I happened to meet Keqing, and she said that she was looking for a big idiot, so I followed." ”
Shi Lan was puzzled: "Looking for me?" What are you looking for me? ”
The three girls present laughed in unison.
"I was passing by the Adventurers' Guild just now, and I saw Catherine posting an announcement that a little girl had lost her guitar, and I wondered if it was the one we picked up, so I came to you." Ke Qing really convinced this guy, and said with a smile: "By the way, I will bring you a gift, I believe it must be very useful to you." ”
Only then did Shi Lan pick up the book that had smashed into him from the ground: "The Art of Speaking"? ”
His face was full of black lines: "What do you mean?" ”
"Literally." Keqing jumped down from the railing and came to Xin Yan's side: "Sister, don't be like him, he doesn't have a good brain." ”
Shi Lan shouted, "Hey, hey, I'm listening." ”
"Shi Lan... He's very good..."Xin Yan didn't want to blame others for the fault: "Maybe I still have a lot of things that can be improved, besides, I suddenly played the piano, maybe it scared him." ”
Saying that, Xin Yan said to Shi Lan: "I'm really sorry......"
Keqing is now full of question marks, gritting her teeth and looking at someone,
How is he? What's so good about him? You're poisonous, aren't you? Not long after they separated, they deceived a lost girl?
"No, no, no." Shi Lan was embarrassed: "Rock 'n' roll is really great, but this kind of art is a bit ahead of my time, I should adapt a little more." ”
"If it's noisy, you can stand far away and listen." Yun Jin also came down from above, "Different people have different receptivity to sound, and when my father performs, there are often people who can't stand standing back, but whether they are close or far away, they have been listening." ”
Yun Jin smiled skillfully, and listened to it in a tactful voice: "I listened to it for a while just now, and I felt that the sound was just right, as if the door to a new world had been opened, and I always couldn't control my body and wanted to shake it......"
"Really!?" Xin Yan's eyes widened and she looked at Yun Jin happily.
Yun Jin! A rising star in Liyue opera!
Although I don't listen to dramas much, my father loves it, and I know the big guy Yun Jin.
Yun Jin smiled: "If you can, can you let me listen to it again?" ”
"No problem!" Xin Yan was very excited.
Her mood was like riding a roller coaster, with ups and downs, and she was noisy by Shi Lan just now, which would get Yun Jin's attention again.
Sure enough, life is always up and down.
"The environment here is not very good, if you don't mind, can you come to my secret base?" Xin Yan sent out an invitation.
The three people present readily agreed.
Shi Lan originally wanted to refuse, but when she saw Keqing's fierce eyes, she had no choice but to follow.
On the streets of Liyue, Xingqiu and Chongyun walk out of Wanmin Hall side by side.
Chongyun sighed: "It's so good, I was still depressed at noon, but I didn't expect to come out in the afternoon." ”
Not long after Keqing and Shi Lan left, their parents came back and told them that they could go out for a walk.
After coming out, Chongyun didn't have a long memory, so he was the first to come to Xingqiu, preparing to go to Wanmin Hall to pack some food and then go to Shi Lan, planning to get together at night.
"Next, let's go find Shi Lan."
The two came to Shi Lan's house and buttoned the door lock: "Is Shi Lan at home?" ”
Shi Shan's response came from the house: "Look for Shi Lan, he's not at home." ”
"Didn't you come back?"
"No, I didn't come back at noon. If you want to play with him, you can go to the pier or the three bowls but the harbor and have a look. ”
Xingqiu and the two looked at each other.
How to find it, two people carrying a full of dishes, when do you have to find this?
Just as he was melancholy, Chongyun saw Shi Lan, Keqing and Yun Jin following a little girl to the south gate.
"Why did they go?" Chongyun was confused.
Xingqiu thought for a while: "I don't know, let's go ask first, anyway, I bought a lot, and it is enough to eat together." ”
The two rushed after him.
Later, Xiangling also came out with a package, and shouted when she went out: "Xingqiu!" You still have a box of dishes that you forgot to take! ”
Guoba: "Lulu! ”
Seeing that the two of them didn't seem to hear and didn't look back, Xiangling was so anxious that she stomped her feet: "Oh, why are you running so fast!" Guoba, chase with me! ”
"Wow!"
So, Shi Lan and the others ran out of the city, chasing Xingqiu and Chongyun behind, followed by Xiangling and Guoba.
Hu Tao, who was handing out flyers, saw this strange phenomenon and hurriedly stuffed the leaflets to Zhongli, who was accompanying him.
"Please, Mr. Zhongli, I'll go with them and take a look!"
After speaking, regardless of Zhongli's stiff expression, he flew over like a butterfly.
Now, Hu Tao has also joined the queue for the wonderful chase.
Zhongli looked at the leaflet in his arms.
"Greetings to the Emperor of the Rock King, the Hall of the Dead has launched a limited emperor experience package."
With a long sigh, Zhongli pulled out a flyer: "Passing by... Can you have time... Take care of it..."
Alas, wear and tear......
