Chapter 34: Friends
Tao Ran knew that what Yun saw at random was what happened to him before he was alive. Her spiritual roots are unstable and she is more susceptible to the fluctuations of the people around her, so it is not surprising to see these things.
Originally, this humiliating past, he didn't want to be known by anyone. But the cloud is randomly different. She is pure like a blank piece of paper, she believes what others say, and he doesn't want to deceive her.
The boy who was only fourteen years old was silent. In fact, as long as no boat was rowing over his head, he would remain silent. He curled himself up in a ball and cowered under the water, as if no one could discover his presence.
The people in the music workshop say so, they say that King Chengping has a good rhythm, if you can enter the palace of King Chengping, then you will definitely be appreciated, and you will become a music official and famous all over the world.
They just looked at Tao Ran and laughed. He didn't see the meaning of the smile, but thanked him with great interest. Maybe it was the heavens that favored him when the people in the palace came to choose a musician, and they fell in love with him at first sight. The ceremony also smiled and said to him: "There are few children who are so intelligent, if the prince falls in love with you that day, don't forget us." ”
Tao Ran lowered his head and looked at his hands. His hands hadn't touched the strings for a long time, and it was hard to press a few notes now. Sometimes he heard the fisherman singing a fisherman's song, and he couldn't wait to write down the rhythm, but there was no paper or pen around him, only the water flowing by his side that had not changed for thousands of years.
I want to live......
The lavishly furnished lay was filled with a faint fragrance, which made his mind a little dizzy when he smelled it. Tao Ran lowered his head and stood beside the prince a little crampedly.
Isn't it said that they come to play the piano to have fun? What about the others?
He was a little confused, until a hand reached over and pinched his chin with some force.
"Sure enough, Peugeot. ”
Because of the horror, there was some mist in his eyes, reflecting the figure of King Chengping getting closer and closer. That night was the beginning of a nightmare. His sound no longer has the air of a young man, but is often harsh and unpleasant, shrouded in the shadow of the lattice. The strings were always broken, with some blood between the fingers on them, and a bit of frustration and coldness to the touch. People began to talk about it, but King Chengping didn't have to care. He's a good musician, but he's a better one to play the rhythm.
Tao Ran had never smiled since that time, probably only occasionally smiling bitterly at the birds that flew in the courtyard to peck at food. He has indeed become a musician, and he is still the most favored one in the palace.
How ridiculous, as if only by selling his body could he get what he dreamed of.
Until one day he escaped.
That brightly lit night, he lit a fire and burned the guqin. There was the sound of wood crackling and bursting in the fire, and the fire was reflected in his eyes. So he began to run for his life, but a river blocked his way.
He is not an immortal, and there is no immortal to save him, so the river will naturally not be divided into two parts. So he jumped in.
......
"Tao Ran, I knew you were going to be waiting for me here!"
Tao Ran raised his head, and directly opposite Yun Xian's black eyes seemed to fall into the stars at any time. So he laughed and replied to her in a loud voice: "Are you late! You can't get up again today? ”
"I didn't, I didn't!" Yun casually stomped her foot a little aggrieved, she took out a flute from her palm and handed it to Tao Ran.
"I secretly went to town to buy it, oh, blow it for you. ”
Tao Ran looked at him in amazement, as if he was dreaming.
"Thank you, thank you!" He almost immediately reached out to pick up the flute, but the moment Yun let go at will, it passed directly through Tao Ran's hand and fell straight to the ground, making a few crisp sounds.
Both of them were silent for a while at the same time, and Yun casually reacted, squatted down to pick up the flute, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I forgot." ”
Tao Ran lowered his eyes, as if nothing had happened, and smiled at her: "Why do you apologize...... I couldn't have touched it! I'm so happy that you bought me the flute. Let's see if there is a crack or if it can be blown. ”
"No way!"
Yun casually suddenly turned his heart sideways and said categorically to Tao Ran.
"What's not going to work?"
"I must let you play the flute! My master is a Taoist priest, he is very powerful, I ask him to go, he will definitely be able to do it. But he's not here now, so I'm going to ask Rong and his brother and I think he can ...... too."
Yun spoke casually and upside down, which made Tao Ran a little confused. He focused all his attention on her, no matter where she had gotten to.
Was she his friend? Even though the difference between the two men was almost ten years. In any case, having someone to talk to him with was the happiest thing he'd ever had since he became a ghost.
If I were still alive, I might be able to teach her how to play the flute......
