"Lu Xuan!"
Lu Xuan was just about to turn around and leave when a familiar voice suddenly came from the roadside behind him!
Looking over, it was Shi Yufei, who was driving a blue BMW.
"What are you waiting for!"
Seeing that Lu Xuan was only looking at her and had no intention of leaving, Shi Yufei opened the car door and said,"Let's go. Accompany me to buy something!"
"No…"
Lu Xuan turned around and glanced at the kindergarten teacher who was teaching the children how to dance. He said blankly,""How did you know I was here?"
"I just came from the Siheyuan!"
"Big sister told me!" Shi Yufei smiled.”
Hearing this, Lu Xuan didn't hesitate and quickly walked over to sit in the front passenger seat.
"I've been really busy these days!”
As soon as they got into the car, Lu Xuan said helplessly,""Yesterday, my niece went to the city. Today, I just sent the three little ones away, and you appeared again! As expected, it was too difficult for Uncle! Tell me, what do you want to buy?"
Shi Yufei ignored Lu Xuan's ridicule and said,""Guqin!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Yufei stepped on the accelerator.
Half an hour later, the BMW drove into a street that specialized in selling a series of traditional instruments such as guzheng!
"Let's go!"
After finding a parking spot, Shi Yufei glanced at Lu Xuan, then generously held onto his arm and walked towards a zither store across the street!
"Let's go then. Why are you holding my hand?”
Seeing that Shi Yufei was actually so familiar with him that she naturally held his arm, Lu Xuan said,""Don't tell me that you're not just pretending, but that you really want to be my girlfriend!”
"Why? You're not willing to accept such a traditional, conservative, and beautiful woman?”
Shi Yufei blinked her beautiful eyes. Not only did she not let go of Lu Xuan, she even tightened her grip on him!
"This is not a matter of willingness!”
Lu Xuan shook his head and smiled." It's just that I feel that you want to tie me down so that the members of the aunties will give up."”
"Eh?"
As soon as Lu Xuan finished speaking, Shi Yufei suddenly exclaimed. Then, she looked at the hall of the zither store in front of them and asked in surprise,"Why is Big Brother here?"
Before Lu Xuan could react, a familiar figure walked out of the antique zither shop. It was Treasure Trove Pavilion's Head Butler, Shi Junxian.
Shi Junxian, who had just walked out of the shop, saw Shi Yufei and Lu Xuan standing in front of the door hand in hand. He was stunned for a moment before he quickly walked up to the two of them and politely said to Lu Xuan,"Hello, Lu Xuan. He didn't expect to meet her here! Are you here to watch the zither with Yufei?”
Lu Xuan nodded.”
Lu Xuan didn't hate this Shi Junxian, nor did he like him. This had nothing to do with Shi Yufei, but Shi Junxian always gave him the feeling of a smiling tiger!
"What a coincidence!"
Shi Junxian clapped his hands and said," It just so happens that I wanted to come and take a look today. I wonder if Brother Lu Xuan has studied the zither?"!”
"I know a little!" Lu Xuan smiled.”
"Haha, Brother Lu Xuan is too humble!”
Shi Junxian laughed out loud and turned to the side,"Let's go! Let's go in and take a look!"
Shi Yufei, who hadn't interrupted Shi Junxian and Lu Xuan's conversation, felt that something was wrong with her brother today. One had to know that her big brother had intentionally or unintentionally revealed his opposition to her relationship with Lu Xuan. In the end, it had only been a few days and her brother was already so passionate towards Lu Xuan!
One had to know that her big brother was famous for being cold. If it wasn't that person, he wouldn't even bother to look at him, let alone let him speak.
Although she was curious, with Lu Xuan by her side, Shi Yufei wasn't worried that her big brother would cause any trouble!
As soon as Lu Xuan, who was being held by Shi Yufei, stepped into the hall, he immediately felt an ancient aura. Immediately after, the melodious and gentle sound of a zither suddenly came from the beaded curtain in the middle of the hall!
Looking over, a woman who was no longer young but still had her charm was sitting behind the beaded curtain. She was gently stroking the zither placed in front of her, completely immersed in the melodious and gentle sound of the zither. She had the demeanor of a master.
The guqin racks around the hall were filled with various styles of guqin, attracting a few young women dressed in Han clothes to stop and watch from time to time.
"I can tell that this is Brother Lu Xuan's first time coming to this zither shop!”
Noticing that Lu Xuan's attention was attracted by the figure sitting behind the beaded curtain and playing the zither alone, Shi Junxian spoke up in time and said,""Don't underestimate this guqin shop. It can be ranked in the top ten in the country. The owner of this guqin shop was even more amazing. Although she did not have much influence in the country, many of the students she taught were now the top guqin masters in the country!”
"The most important thing is that this zither shop has a lot of real 'ancient' zither.”
Lu Xuan ignored Shi Junxian because he realized that the zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, and all musical instruments he had learned from the system were ready to move.
Shi Junxian obviously didn't notice the change in Lu Xuan's expression. He slowly walked to a piano stand blocked by a glass cabinet at the top of the hall and continued to introduce it to Lu Xuan,""Do you see this zither? This was truly made in the Great Tang. Unfortunately, because of the age, it could only be used for viewing!”
At this point, Shi Junxian suddenly quieted down and turned to look at Lu Xuan.
Seeing that Lu Xuan had not said anything from the beginning to the end, as if he did not understand what he had said, he blinked awkwardly.
Could it be that this kid didn't know how to play the zither?
Shi Junxian's facial muscles twitched slightly. If Lu Xuan didn't know how to play the zither, then wasn't he talking to Niu about the zither just now?
Thinking of this, Shi Junxian suddenly had an idea and prepared to test Lu Xuan.
"This is…"
Without waiting for Shi Junxian to speak, Lu Xuan, who had been silent all this while, suddenly raised his head and looked at the zither in the glass cabinet. Then, he walked over quickly and said in surprise,""This is…the seven-stringed zither Tang Caifeng Ming Qi?”
“！！！！！”
Shi Junxian, who had originally planned to test Lu Xuan, suddenly narrowed his eyes. He did not expect Lu Xuan to recognize the origin of this zither at a glance. One had to know that he did not say that this was the Tang Caifeng Seven String Zither. He only mentioned that it was made in the Great Tang!
"Tang Caifeng Ming Qi?"
Shi Yufei, who was beside Lu Xuan, blinked her eyes in confusion and said,""This name is so nice!"
Although she was the one who came to buy the guqin today, she had only just started learning the guqin and did not know much about it.
Without waiting for Lu Xuan to speak, she shook Lu Xuan's arm and continued like a curious baby,""Lu Xuan. What was Tang Caifeng and Ming Qi? Can you tell me about it?"
“？”
Lu Xuan glanced at Shi Yufei. Seeing that she didn't know the story behind this zither, he shook his head and smiled.""This story begins in the second year of the Kaiyuan period of the Great Tang. In the distant southwest of Shu, a craftsman named Lei Wei had crafted a lute of the Sunset style. The length of the lute was 124.8 centimeters, the width of the forehead was 16.3 centimeters, the width of the shoulders was 18.8 centimeters, and the width of the tail was 12.5 centimeters. The thickest part between the shoulders was 5.4 centimeters. Because the cloud patterns on both sides of the body of the zither were undulating, like the continuous clouds in the sky. When the paint was dry and the silk thread was fine, Rayen waved his hand and carved his name on the dragon pond in the belly of the zither," Made by Rayen in the second year of Kaiyuan in Tang Empire!"”
" Lei Wei was the most famous zither maker in the Tang Dynasty. It is said that every time a snowstorm came, he would drink the turbid wine, put on a straw raincoat, and a bamboo hat, and run to the deep forest of Mount Emei to listen to the true sound of the trees. If the sound was continuous and melodious, he would choose the material to make the zither. As for the reason why this zither was named 'Colorful Phoenix Cry Force'. It was another story. The term 'Mingqi' came from the first volume of Guoyu. It said that during the rise of the Zhou Dynasty, there was a phoenix chirping on Mount Qi. Everyone knew that phoenixes were auspicious birds with colorful patterns on their bodies. Therefore, the name of the zither,'Colorful Phoenix Crying to the Qi', had an auspicious meaning. It represented the sustenance of the ancient scholars of our country who poured their beauty into the zither.”
Lu Xuan's voice was slow and magnetic, complementing the melodious sound of the zither that echoed in the hall, making people feel more comfortable listening to it.
When Lu Xuan told Shi Yufei about the history of this zither and the story behind it, the women in Han clothes in the hall were all attracted and listened to it with great interest.
