Chapter 113: The Vampire (I)
Rainy and misty, the "Water Temple Dragon Boat" steamer on the dark water, swaying back and forth with the waves, the camera zooms in on the porthole on the ground floor, the dim light illuminates the three-layer folding bed arranged inside, the sleeping face of the young man, and the metal railing on the side of the bed is blocked to avoid falling out of bed...... The little white cat squatted at the head of the bed and watched for a while, jumped down, went outside the room, and went down the stairs to the upper deck. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The people here staggered and adapted to the swaying of the ships as they moved through the corridors, in the posture of stupid penguins, and the little white cat easily jumped up the stairs, glanced down at the penguins, and jumped to the top floor.
The ornaments of the small dance hall are fixed on the ground with insurance, including the huge yellow varnished piano in the middle, a woman in a black dress sits in front of the piano and plays, and the audience sitting in a circle of seats around is Chinese, foreigner, all of them are silent, until the end of the music, someone finally remembered, began to take pictures, the bearded captain wore a navy hat, admired and agreed: "This new song "Destiny" by everyone makes me have the illusion of being on the roaring waves of the sea...... Hehe, don't look at me now I'm a steamer and waiting to die, and I also worked as a sailor in the Imperial Navy when I was young...... Later, the treaty was defeated, and the big ships were dismantled......"
As he spoke, the old captain's eyes welled up with tears, and he turned his head to look at the rain and mist of the porthole outside.
Even if he was used in China and became a captain, he couldn't forget the glory of the empire.
The surrounding foreigners also praised in various languages, all of them knew this world-renowned music master, whether they could play music or not, at least they had to be elegant and elegant to express that they would appreciate, especially the new tunes that were pleasant to listen to, they all felt honored, but it was a pity that Qu Qingge was still wearing a lady's soft hat and did not sing at the same time.
But someone had already begun to take out the money, and the little blonde girl with a black top hatโshe asked someone to borrow itโtook the money with the hat on the sidelines, and soon gathered a large pile, her eyes shining, took the money, and returned to the piano and sat down: "Teacher Qu." โ
She only called that person "teacher", and although she respected Qu Qingge, she also added a distinction of surname.
Qu Qingge couldn't hear the sounds around her, nor could she see the death of little Lori just now, the piano seat was a kind of bench, she looked down at the blonde Lori sitting side by side next to her, and gave her eyes encouragement.
Little Helen looked up at her: "Do you want me to play?"
Qu Qingge nodded, gave up the middle of the bench to Little Helen, and watched by himself...... When everyone saw this scene, they were surprised and looked at the blonde Lori who sat on the main seat.
It's a ...... The act of recommendation, not a particularly excellent student, can not get such treatment.
In the eyes of the crowd, usually children are stressed, little Helen raised her hands expressionlessly and began to learn to play that tune, yes...... It's learning.
The audience could tell that her rhythm was unfamiliar, and Qu Qingge also made her stop from time to time, teaching techniques by hand, this blonde Lori didn't even know how to play the piano.
But the strange thing is that the tune in her hand has always been accurate, perhaps because her fingers are strong and precise, her reaction is agile enough, and her learning ability is also very strong, and with the smooth rhythm, she gradually has the heaviness and resistance of "Destiny", which is simply incredible...... A little Lori, who looks like she is only eight or nine years old, does she know what it means to be heavy and resistant?
"Who's that blonde girl?"
"It's the students of the music family, I saw them holding hands, and they were still learning to recognize music scores...... Yes, that's right, she didn't know sheet music before. โ
"When did you accept students? Doesn't she have no students?"
"Oh, not the kind of student in the sense of inheriting the mantle...... I heard that she seems to be working as a tutor, a private music teacher for a rich family to hire for their children, you know? teach this little girl how to appreciate music and nurture her soul. โ
Everyone looked at each other, and in a small band resting next to them, someone couldn't help but ask: "Who has such a face to let everyone be a tutor?
"No, it's like a young man's child, you look at her face, it's a half-breed......"
"Oh...... Young Men ...... Metis. Someone couldn't help but say sourly, suspicious: "It can't be the illegitimate daughter of the Qu family, right?"
"Don't gossip, Qu everyone has no heart to talk about love, she is completely dedicated to the revival of national music in this life, and she does not hesitate to live in a silent world, what power and money do you think can move her? And that young man is not a foreign prince and nobleman, but the author and original performer of this song "Destiny", the song everyone said it themselves...... Oh, she can't speak, she wrote it to me on a paper card, I want to think about what to call it...... Ji Lun is a bit like a war hero in the newspaper a few years ago, maybe the same name, I haven't seen a real person, and Takefu can't be musical. โ
"Ah, that's also a low-key music master, no wonder he asks for help, it's for the sake of the child to be better, right?"
"Probably, unlike the strict circle division in foreign countries, our culture is facing the pressure of decline and revival, and there are some musicians in the circle who will pin their students on each other, so that they can learn from each other's strengths, and the marriage of musical concepts and ideological spirits, this blonde girl can be regarded as the crystallization of this young man and the music family. โ
"Mountains and rivers, Boya and children, bosom friends are hard to find, God has been friends for a long time, is the ideal crystallization?" someone laughed, and his face was serious: "Understood, understood...... I can't imagine that the high wind and bright festival of the ancients can be seen in today's people......"
In a moment, the song was completed for the first time, and everyone was still discussing, and all kinds of gossip and serious news were spreading.
The blonde Lori began to play the second time, and the voices of the crowd gradually quieted down, at least the girl's foundation was very good.
By the time she began to play it for the third time, the crowd fell silent.
Fourth, fifth...... It's back to the situation when Qu Qingge was played, but the strange thing is that the same score pops up in the two of them, with subtle stylistic differences, not who is better and who is worse, but more like a beam of white light through a glass prism, producing different color refractions, but covering the white light, people can't help but imagine it.
I have heard that there is an original version of this "Destiny", what kind of tragic voice is that? What kind of tragic life?
............
On the side bank of the river where the ship sailed, a gorgeous black and red carriage drove along the gravel road, which was dangerous in this day and age.
And with the progress of the times, there are few people who use such tools as horse-drawn carriages.
At this moment, the passionate piano sound of the ship came, and in the darkness of the carriage, a handsome man wearing an intricate and gorgeous black trench coat and a neat red lining, suddenly opened his eyes, his hands were raised in the air in front of him, and he pressed the rhythm, and his slender snow-white ten fingers seemed to play along with a real piano, and his fingering was fast and skillful...... The music echoed in the carriage like water, and his expression also changed from casual to gradually intoxicated, and from time to time became low or passionate with the ups and downs of the music.
After a long time, after the sound stopped, he put away his hands and breathed a sigh of relief: "Perfect, what beautiful music...... I seemed to smell an acquaintance and let me see the name of the bow of this steamer...... Hmm, the Water Temple Dragon Boat?"
The night was silent, and the phosphorescent eyes of wild beasts appeared on both sides of the forest, watching the horses, but the moment the carriage lifted the curtains, the moonlight penetrated through the carriage, and all of them whined back as if they had seen a terrifying predator.
"Oh, I remember, this should be Da Luqu. โ
"She is a woman who is entitled to immortality and to be a woman of my race. โ
The man looked up and laughed, and the moonlight swept through the carriage, and inside was a young girl, and then he stuck his tongue out of the girl, slid upward, past his navel and breasts, slid up his throat, and bit down - the girl only let out a feeble moan, without the slightest resistance, and her eyes lost focus.
As she absorbed it, her body gradually turned white and gray, her blood continued to disappear, and her consciousness gradually sank into the boundary between life and death.
............
In the rest cabin on the lower deck of the steamer, Ji Lunhuo turned over and sat up, staring at the river bank a hundred meters away, looking through the night fog and seeing the sky above the forest, a cloud of night birds flying in fright, but there was nothing else abnormal.
The Sonata of Destiny resounded on the ship, and judging by technique and style, Qu Qingge played it herself, allowing her students to compare.
After paying attention to it for half an hour, he didn't see any other abnormalities on the riverbank, Ji Lun withdrew his gaze, during this period, the performance of Qu Qingge did not give him a special feeling, the resonance of the song "Destiny" in the opera house disappeared, how to get it, how to lose, the strength increased by the resonance of fate and grief, and after revenge, he relaxed in one breath, and his grief and indignation inevitably eased.
"Meow~~" The little white cat jumped in at the door and looked up at the young man.
Ji Lun touched her head, got up to the table, took out a black notebook, opened the title page, and turned it over to the blank, and wrote in the diary inherited from his mother: "I vaguely remember a story that the chivalrous man created a martial art called the Gloomy Ecstasy Palm for the gloom who lost his lover, and the world is invincible...... However, after finding his lover, he lost this gloomy state of mind and the martial arts that matched it...... But if you have a choice, you'd rather be like this, get the fish and forget about it......"
"Please be little Helen's personal tutor for three days, do the cost of protecting her, and have something to ask you as a friend...... Little Helen is a lovely girl, but if she had a choice, she still hoped that she would be able to reunite happily with her family...... It's like, I'm waiting to be reunited with my sister, and it makes me feel that I still have a home in the world, not a rootless wanderer......"
"Even if you are banished from your hometown, as long as you have your family by your side, you can make the world your home even if you are at the ends of the earth. (To be continued.) )
