Guqin Duel
Liu Yiran didn't say anything and sat down by herself. She touched the Fuxi-style zither in front of her. Her temperament became more and more otherworldly at this moment, making people not dare to have any thoughts of tarnishing it.
The seductive beauty who was clamoring to compete with Liu Yiran looked at her boyfriend and said in a low voice," Hubby, if you help me win against her, I'll see how she can still be so arrogant." Then, she kissed the face of the so-called twelfth generation successor of the Guangling Sect, Wu Xiangru, arrogantly. It was as if they had already won before the competition. Li Sansheng watched this dramatic scene with amusement.
He Caiyun was a genuine Xi'an girl. When she was young, she had a special liking for the guqin. Her academic results were also the best in the High School Affiliated to Shaanxi Normal University. She entered Jiao Tong University with excellent results and naturally joined the Guqin Club of Jiao Tong University because of her interest in the guqin. She was already very beautiful. With the temperament of the guqin, she naturally stood out even more. She was definitely a girl that the children of ordinary citizens and children who had climbed out of the countryside would not dare to dream of having. He Caiyun's zither skills were indeed extraordinary. She had passed the eighth grade of the zither with a difficult song, Loulan's Sanzi. Before Liu Yiran joined the zither club, no one could compare to her.
He Caiyun had met her boyfriend, Wu Xiangru, the 12th generation successor of the Guangling Sect, because of a Guqin competition. Wu Xiangru's seniority was as high as many of the famous Guangling Sect's successors, but his level was naturally not as high as those masters. He had only gotten to know the master through his family background, but compared to ordinary Guqin lovers, he was naturally at the level of a master. Having just passed the Guqin Level 9, which was the highest level of Guqin, many people thought that they would become Guqin Masters in the future. The two of them met by chance. One fell in love with the other's family background, and the other fell in love with the other's beauty. They naturally got together without passing through Duokante.
However, just as He Caiyun had just become famous in Jiao Tong University, Liu Yiran, who had only played the zither a few times in Jiao Tong University, witnessed He Caiyun's zither skills during an outdoor performance. She couldn't help but want to play a song. At that time, she had performed a song called " Phoenix Seeking Phoenix " that shocked everyone. Because of her more beautiful appearance than He Caiyun and her temperament that was more worldly than He Caiyun, she instantly became a celebrity in Jiao Tong University. The pursuers had used countless methods, but none of them could win the crown.
Under everyone's constant request, He Caiyun invited Liu Yiran to join the Guqin Club. Although she was a little reluctant, she could still adapt to Liu Yiran at the beginning. However, more and more people joined the Guqin Club. Most of them were because of Liu Yiran's stunning appearance and her untainted temperament. This made He Caiyun, who was used to being the center of attention, feel more and more disgusted. Finally, He Caiyun, who could not suppress her jealousy, issued a challenge to Liu Yiran. However, Liu Yiran had agreed without saying anything in the Guqin Club. The result was obvious. The two of them played the same " Three Stages of Yangguan " at the same time. He Caiyun's ability was only at that level and she was defeated. Hence, today, He Caiyun asked her boyfriend to send the twelfth generation descendant of the Guangling Sect to take revenge.
"Caiyun, what do you want to compete in?" Wu Xiangru, who was so handsome and charismatic that Li Sansheng felt ashamed of himself, had already attracted the attention of all the talented women in the hall who were studying the zither.
"Liu Yiran, which song do you want to compete with?" To be honest, Li Sansheng thought that He Caiyun was not bad looking. Her eyes were enough to make many men shoot out before they even drew their bows and mounted their horses, especially her ponytail. However, her heart was not very good. She would be a resentful wife if she married her.
" Anything," Liu Yiran said lightly as she touched her zither.
" Then let's play 'Three Strokes of the Mother'," Wu Xiangru said with a smile as she looked at Liu Yiran.
Li Sansheng had been observing this boy who was more handsome and cooler than him from the beginning. He had already cursed in his heart many times that it was useless for him to be good-looking. Perhaps he was just a good-for-nothing gigolo or a big worm that had died down there. This was because this guy kept peeking at Liu Yiran with his small eyes. His eyes were naturally filled with blasphemy. He did not care that his girlfriend, He Caiyun, was right beside him. He was so arrogant that Li Sansheng wanted to go up and beat her up.
The score of the top ten famous zither songs," San Nong ***", was first found in the Ming Dynasty's " Magical Secret Score ". It was divided into ten sections, five of which were like the opening of the five petals of the zither. There were also three main tones that appeared in three different tones, which were called the Three Nongs, so it was called the Three Nongs of ***. The name of the song had nothing to do with the interest of the song. Later generations attached it to the flute song "*** Song" of Huan Yi of the Jin Dynasty because of its name, which was used to express the noble and peaceful stillness of the song. The rapid melody was like the movement of the song swaying in the wind without fear of the cold.
" The Three Strokes of ***" was a compulsory song for the eighth level of the guqin. However, it was very difficult to play it at this stage. For Wu Xiangru, who had just passed the ninth level of the guqin, playing this song was also a little difficult. After all, it was one of the top ten famous guqin songs. Not everyone could easily play it. Wu Xiangru had also guessed from his girlfriend He Caiyun that Liu Yiran should be about the same as him, so he chose this song.
The sound of the zither quietly rose. The two of them stood still like masters who had come out of the world. They narrowed their eyes and entered their own artistic conception.
Li Sansheng, who also had his eyes closed, already knew who had won and who had lost when the zither started playing. The first six verses of " Three Strokes of the ***" were repeated in a loop, and the last four verses were the second part, depicting the two images of the ***, static and moving.
Liu Yiran was already slightly inferior to Wu Xiangru in terms of the loop technique at the beginning. Li Sansheng had to admit that Wu Xiangru's zither skills seemed to be a genuine master without any level of mixing. Taking the overtone playing technique of the loop technique as an example, he was probably at the top of his age. Only a few top talents from the Central Conservatory of Music and the Shanghai Conservatory of Music could compare to him.
From the first part to the last part, Li Sansheng shook his head and carefully admired it. Perhaps Liu Yiran had already heard the high and low of Wu Xiangru's hair. Her mood had fluctuated later on. As long as her mood fluctuated, her natural technique would be affected.
Under such circumstances, Liu Yiran lost to Wu Xiangru as expected. Most of the students in the Guqin Club's contact hall were Guqin enthusiasts, so they could tell the difference between the two.
A song falls.
" Your attainments are already not bad. As long as you get some guidance from a famous teacher, you will probably be able to reach another level." Wu Xiangru acted like a winner teaching a loser on TV after Liu Yiran attacked him. He pretended to be an expert, which made Li Sansheng despise him. Li Sansheng hated this kind of pretentious idiot the most.
Liu Yiran still didn't say anything and just nodded.
" Liu Yiran, aren't you very good? You still lost." He Caiyun did not let go of this rare opportunity to attack Liu Yiran. He Caiyun naturally would not let go of such a rare opportunity. This woman was definitely good at beating up a fallen dog. He Caiyun hugged her boyfriend's arm and looked very proud. She was happier than if she had won.
Liu Yiran could only shake her head at this kind of woman.
" My master is Mei Yueqiang, the great master of the zither world who has passed away. It's not surprising that you lost," Wu Xiangru said proudly. His eyes were darting around Liu Yiran's body, which made her frown slightly.
The members of the Guqin Club were all amazed by this breathtaking battle. When they heard that Wu Xiangru had once studied under the guqin world's leading figure, Mr. Mei Yueqiang, they all exclaimed in surprise. Mr. Mei Yueqiang was the peak figure of the Guangling Sect. They didn't expect Wu Xiangru to have studied under him before. It seemed that his high attainments in guqin were not due to luck, but due to real kung fu.
They were also a little disappointed that Liu Yiran, the face of the Guqin Club, had lost. After all, these children, who had always regarded Liu Yiran as a perfect woman, all had their own thoughts and opinions.
Liu Yiran stood up and looked at the members of the Guqin Club. She nodded and turned around to leave.
" Liu Yiran, I think you should leave the Guqin Club," He Caiyun said as she looked at Liu Yiran's back.
Li Sansheng saw Liu Yiran frown. He was disgusted by He Caiyun's evil heart. The members of the Guqin Club instantly became rowdy because of He Caiyun's words. Some people criticized He Caiyun's insatiable behavior without hesitation, but there were still people who supported He Caiyun. After all, He Caiyun was the president of the Guqin Club and had been in the Guqin Club for so long. How could Liu Yiran, who had just joined the Guqin Club, be compared to her?
" Caiyun is right. You should leave the Guqin Club. I will come back to the Guqin Club to guide everyone in the future," Wu Xiangru said. Although he was a little unwilling, his girlfriend, He Caiyun, had already made it this far. If he didn't support her, it would make things difficult for her. He also had fantasies about Liu Yiran, but he knew that he couldn't win over a girl who was more proud than him because Liu Yiran had never looked at him in the eye. This made Wu Xiangru, who was spoiled by girls, very disappointed. If he couldn't get it, he would try his best to destroy it. It was more important to cherish his girlfriend, He Caiyun, who was only a little worse than Liu Yiran. That was why Wu Xiangru, who had such extreme thoughts, said this.
" What a good woman!" Li Sansheng laughed.
Liu Yiran turned around and saw that it was the boy who had been stalking her. This made Liu Yiran feel that this farce was even more absurd. Was her admirer, who was like a fool, going to put on a scene of a hero saving a damsel in distress? Was this self-humiliation or self-confidence?
" You want to be the hero to save the damsel in distress?" He Caiyun looked at Li Sansheng's attire from top to bottom. Seeing Li Sansheng's bumpkin appearance, she said disdainfully. Wu Xiangru also felt that this scene was too ridiculous and could not help but laugh.
The dozens of members of the Guqin Club seemed to be used to Liu Yiran's suitors doing shocking things. Looking at Li Sansheng, who looked like a country bumpkin, they laughed out loud without hiding it and pointed at Li Sansheng.
It was still the same. They laughed, and Li Sansheng also laughed. His smile was even more brilliant. A strange scene played out here again.
When He Caiyun saw Li Sansheng smiling so brightly like a retard, she pulled Wu Xiangru's arm and laughed out loud. She even said," Why is there a fool here?"
Li Sansheng laughed unscrupulously.
This world was a group of fools laughing at another group of fools. They were all mediocre people and fools.
Liu Yiran saw that everyone was laughing at Li Sansheng. Perhaps it was because of their kindness that she felt that this was not dignified for a man. For the first time, she said to her pursuer, who was destined to have no interaction with her, who was the Li Sansheng who was smiling at her happily," You can go."
There was not much color or emotion in those words.
" Compared to the more profligate Guangling Sect, I still prefer the famous Shushan Sect," Li Sansheng stopped smiling and said provocatively as if he didn't hear Liu Yiran.
" You even know how to play the guqin? Have you seen the guqin before? Hahahaha!" He Caiyun laughed even more arrogantly as if she had heard a huge joke. The others also felt the same way.
It was like a middle-aged woman in the market discussing with you which winery in France and which year's wine was the best to drink. In the end, it was as absurd as the Arabian Nights.
" With your identity as the successor of Mr. Mei Yueqiang, it's a bit embarrassing for you to play the three tricks to such a level. If your senior brother who is a professor at the Shanghai Music Academy knew about it, he would be ashamed to death," Li Sansheng said word by word.
This time, the hall was unusually quiet. It was so quiet that one could hear the sound of a heartbeat. Everyone no longer thought that Li Sansheng was a fool who pursued Liu Yiran. Only a fool would not listen to the information revealed by Li Sansheng's words, let alone a group of university students with absolutely no problems with their intelligence.
" You know how to play the zither?" Wu Xiangru said with a livid face.
" I'll compete with you," Li Sansheng said forcefully.
Liu Yiran looked at the sudden surge of emotions in this absurd scene. She seemed to be interested in this exciting piano battle again. She turned around and looked at the two men who were at loggerheads.
He had a face that could make women infatuated with him, and he had a proud temperament. He was an unremarkable, ordinary, and unfamiliar boy who was destined to be untouchable in any corner of the campus.
"You choose the song."
"Since you are the successor of the Guangling Sect, then use the Guangling San."
"Can I use your Fuxi Guqin?”This was the first time Li Sansheng had spoken to Liu Yiran. It would be a lie if he said that he wasn't nervous, but he did not want to embarrass the Li family.
Liu Yiran nodded lightly.
"Guangling San", see also "Guangling San", the song "Guangling San" that must be tested in the tenth grade of Guqin…
