In the next few days, besides practicing his swordsmanship, Li Jing was also learning the zither from Nongyu.
He remembered that when he was still in that world, his zither skills were relatively poor. He could only play some famous songs, and they were often very different. After that, his zither skills improved significantly in the Haunted Valley. Although he couldn't be compared to his master Guigu 'zi, he was the best among the three of them.
Now that he had Nongyu, this zither genius, to guide him wholeheartedly, his zither skills could be said to shoot up like an arrow in the sky. He had no pressure at all to become a zither player in those big places.
It was another afternoon.
In the courtyard surrounded by withered branches, fiery red leaves fluttered in the air. In the midst of the fiery red, a handsome young man and a dignified young woman sat in front of a long zither, playing a beautiful song together.
They were like an immortal couple, with great chemistry. It was just that they were both a little young.
"Nongyu, if I learn the zither from you, are you willing to learn the sword from me?”Li Jing's state of mind was extremely calm after the song. The bloodthirsty brutality from before seemed to have disappeared.
He turned his head and looked at the dreamy girl beside him. He couldn't bear the cruel fate that she would have to face in the future, so he took the initiative to ask.
Nongyu met his gaze and was silent for a few seconds.
" No," she said slowly." I have long vowed to inherit Master's last wish. I will devote my life to the art of the zither and play unparalleled music."”
"Oh, I see." Li Jing's understanding of Nongyu was very limited. He didn't know who her master was and what her last wish was. Noticing the sadness in her eyes, he tactfully didn't ask.
"However, have you ever realized that even if you want to devote your life to the zither, reality might not allow it? This was a world dominated by men. It was filled with destruction and ambition. There was robbery, plunder, and oppression everywhere. The stronger the experts were, the more endless their desires. Women don't have the power to protect themselves. They can only endure manipulation and humiliation, especially a beautiful woman like you.”
"I can protect myself."
"You can't. Your hairpin is enough to deal with ordinary people, but when facing a real expert, that thing is completely useless.”He turned around and didn't look back. He mercilessly attacked Nongyu Dao.
"Then what do you think I should do? Can I protect myself by learning the sword from you?”Nongyu asked calmly.
Li Jing wanted Nongyu to become stronger so that she could rely on herself to avoid danger, but was learning the sword enough?
It was definitely not enough. He could only shake his head and say,"That might not be the case. If you focus on the zither path, it will be difficult for you to succeed in the sword path. In the face of danger, it would probably only increase your means of self-preservation.”
"If that's the case, what's the point of me learning the sword? It was better to completely put all his thoughts into the zither path in his limited life and step into a higher realm as soon as possible. He would be worthy of his short life.”
Nongyu seemed to be quite relieved, like a quiet mountain spring flowing, whether it was on a flat ground or a steep hill.
" That makes sense. Let me think…"
Li Jing fell into a state of deep thought. Suddenly, his eyes lit up." Have you ever thought of turning the zither into a peerless weapon and killing the enemy with the zither?”
"Is this okay?" Nongyu was shocked.
At this moment, she felt as if she had been brought into a new world.
" Why not? Sound has power too. Different notes have different powers. Some notes represent joy, some represent sadness, some represent anger, and some represent determination. The collision between notes can often produce wonderful changes. If inner energy is added, it will be even more obvious. I can't explain it clearly, so I'll give you a demonstration.”
Pulling the zither closer to himself, Li Jing prepared to play the song " Ambush from All Sides " that he knew of. Although it was originally played for pipa, it could also be played for zither. Moreover, the score had been edited by several Internet geeks. It was more suitable for zither and highlighted the killing intent in it.
When a person with superb zither skills played it, it was simply filled with killing intent, making the listener's hair stand on end, as if they were in the terrifying strangulation of thousands of troops.
Ten fingers on the strings, start-Clang!~ Clang! Clang! Clang!
The metal hissed, and killing intent boiled, causing the listener's mind to tremble. Gradually, he applied his internal strength, and as the sound waves spread, the surrounding vegetation began to move without wind, and it became more and more intense, as if it was attacked by a violent wind.
However, that was all. It was far from the horror of the killer in the movie Kung Fu, let alone the extremely powerful Six-fingered Zither Demon.
Clang ~~
His fingers kept jumping and pulling. Suddenly, he raised his hands and did not put them down.
"I can only do this much, but you are different. You should be able to turn it into a powerful attack, turning the zither music into thousands of sharp blades.”Li Jing looked expectantly at the girl who was frowning slightly and nodding in deep thought, waiting for a reply.
Nongyu remained silent for a long time, trying to figure out a new understanding.
Just like that, an hour passed.
Two hours passed.
Four hours later, she finally raised her head. Her beautiful face was filled with divine splendor, and her eyes were bright." Perhaps, I can!”
It was just a few simple words, and it wasn't loud, but to Li Jing's ears, it was like a clap of thunder. Damn, it really worked?
He didn't think that Nongyu would fool him in the zither. Since the words 'I can' were said so resolutely, the words 'maybe' could be ignored.
Could he really guide the soft and weak Nongyu into becoming the Zither Demon?
He was looking forward to the future of this girl. He was looking forward to whether she could bring the exaggerated lethality of the zither to Qin Shimingyue and even become invincible in the world!
"Your internal strength isn't strong. I'll teach you the sect's Qi cultivation method later. I hope you can surprise me and let me experience the power of the zither as soon as possible.”Li Jing excitedly pulled Nongyu's hand and directly threw out the Ghost Valley's Qi cultivation method that was not taught to outsiders.
Nongyu's ears and snow-white neck turned red as he held her hand. It was a rare sight.
Girls in this era matured early, but a girl was a girl. How could she not have the temperament of a girl? Li Jingzhi stared blankly at her, and for some reason, he kissed her smooth forehead.
Nongyu was stunned. Even he was stunned. When had he ever been so bold?
Because they were too surprised, the two of them did not react immediately. Instead, they maintained their lovey-dovey behavior.
"What are you doing?"
"I didn't do anything. I just kissed you.”
