Countryside Rhapsody

On the second day of the Tianji Qin Banquet, the competition officially kicked off. Everyone has only time to perform one piece, and if they cannot get the approval of the four judges in the sub-venue, it means that they have no chance to be the Qin Kui of the Tian Ji Qin Banquet.

Because of the large number of participants, the selection rules are even more stringent. There are three sub-venues, each with four judges. Only contestants who pass the evaluation of all four judges are eligible to enter the semi-finals and then enter the finals.

After one morning, there were only a handful of people who could get unanimous votes. Qin Boran sat in the stands with the landlord, waiting for Qin Shulan and Qin Boxi to play.

Coincidentally, Qin Shulan and Qin Boxi were in the same venue, and Qin Huiwei and Qin Yijue were in the same venue. According to the arrangement of the conference, the match between Qin Huiwei and Qin Yijue was ranked behind Qin Shulan and Qin Boxi.

Leaning back on the cushion behind him, the self-satisfied landlord dozed off boredly. If Qin Boran was not watching, he would have already rolled up his legs and fell asleep.

"Little sister, Shulan is on stage." Seeing Qin Shulan, who was wearing a light green phalaenopsis embroidered dress with a simple and elegant voice, walk into the venue with her pipa in her arms, Qin Boran pushed the proud host to cheer up .

Stretching with great effort, the proprietor's proud eyes still had teardrops from when he dozed off, and his tone was full of indifference: "Can you really surprise people?"

"Shulan has been learning the pipa since she was three years old, and it has been ten years." Qin Boran is very confident. He has heard Qin Shulan play the pipa, and there will be new surprises every time. The connection between Qin Shulan and the pipa is innate Yes, no one can beat her. Qin Shulan was born to play the pipa, and her pipa performance is no worse than that of those who are older than her.

Together with the qin music, the whole audience fell silent. It was a state of concentration. Qin Shulan's eyes were only on the pipa in her hand. Every technique is firmly remembered in the heart, and it has been transformed into instinct, so that people can perceive the gap between the sky and the earth as soon as they make a move.

The proprietor propped his chin with his hand, and looked intently at Qin Shulan who was sitting in the center of the venue playing the pipa, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Little sister, what do you think of Shulan's performance?" The time for one song was very short, no matter how much she felt reluctant, Qin Shulan's performance still ended within the stipulated time, and as expected, she won unanimous approval. After saluting to the judges and audience, he slowly walked out of the venue.

Passing by the audience stand where Qin Boran was, Qin Shulan did not forget to raise her head and smile, which amazed many audiences present.

"Impeccable approach and emotional engagement that touches the heart."

"This is a very high evaluation." Qin Boran smiled: "Maybe, you can also try to learn a musical instrument, which will help your practice."

"No need." The proud landlord shook his head: "Thinking of her age, I just lament that a 13-year-old girl has such strong emotions, so what will happen to her future?"

Qin Boran frowned: "Isn't it good to have strong emotions in the piece? Shulan originally played a piece with strong emotions."

"Of course not, it's just listening to the music like listening to the heart, brother, can't you hear what she's thinking?"

"What did little sister hear?"

"The sound of the heart that has already gone astray at the beginning of love."

Qin Boran smiled wryly, looking helplessly at Deyilou: "I knew you were very intelligent when we met for the first time. Alas, you have a clear mind at such a young age. I don't know if it's good or bad?"

"The thing on my neck is not just an ornament to me." The proud host tapped his head with a fan: "The brain is a good thing, I hope everyone has it."

"Yes, besides thinking, the brain is also a key part of life." Qin Boran smiled, clearing away the haze in his heart: "Although you don't learn musical instruments, you know the music very well. It's really amazing."

"There are many people around me who can play musical instruments and understand music." Proud host explained: "My adoptive father is proficient in several musical instruments, and he wants me to memorize thousands of songs. He said that musical instruments are a matter of fate, but Music is a person's cultivation and common sense."

"It's the first time I've heard such an opinion. Little sister, your adoptive father is no ordinary person. It's a pity that Qin Boran can't meet him."

"Then remember it in your heart, he will know."

After leaving the venue, Qin Shulan couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart and wanted to share the joy and pride she felt with Qin Boran immediately. The steps under her feet became faster and faster, as if she was about to fly, her cheeks flushed slightly, What's more, Xiao Langjun, who is about the same age, can't move his eyes away. Qin Shulan, who is walking quickly, is like a dancing butterfly.

After walking to the edge of the auditorium, Qin Shulan saw Qin Boran who was talking happily with Xie Fangchen from a distance. Seeing Qin Boran showing a gentle smile to Xie Fangchen, Qin Shulan felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured over her head for an instant The temperature dropped, and my heart became half cold. All the joy just now dissipated in an instant, my nose was sore, and I blinked, always feeling wet in my eyes.

Slowing down, she stood by the auditorium for a while, adjusted her expression, and then Qin Shulan slowly walked to Qin Boran's side.

Unlike when she flung herself into Qin Boran's arms happily that day, Qin Shulan's voice was a little more reserved: "Seventh brother."

"Shulan, my little sister and I both listened to your performance, it was very beautiful." Qin Boran showed his elder brother's concern for his sister as before: "I'm sorry for you, let's sit here and rest for a while, your family Nine Brothers will be on stage soon."

"Okay." Nodding, Qin Shulan obediently walked to the other side of Qin Boran and sat down, unable to hide her joy when she got Qin Boran's affirmation.

After sitting down, Qin Shulan became uneasy again, and kept asking Qin Boran: "Brother Seven, do I play really well?"

"Yes, very good." Qin Boran was not impatient at all, and when the proud landlord had already frowned, he quietly touched the proud landlord, asking the proud landlord to be calm, while comforting Qin Shulan: "You have always been A good pipa player, I believe that it will not be difficult to reach the final with your ability."

"Really?" With Qin Boran's affirmation, the feeling of Qin Boran patted her on the head just now kept amplifying in her mind, Qin Shulan smiled like a flower, her eyes shone brightly, her heart was beating thumping Non-stop: "As long as...as long as Brother Qi likes it!"

"It's not just me, there is no one in the family who doesn't like your performance, and everyone will be proud of you." In order to prove his statement, Qin Boran did not forget to pull up the proud host who was dozing off beside him: " Little sister, do you think so?"

"Yes, yes, brother, you can say whatever you want." The landlord's answer was so perfunctory that Fu Tingfang couldn't help shaking his head. Just when Qin Boran was about to say a few more words, the landlord suddenly Come to the spirit: "Ah, the second brother is on the stage!"

"So fast?" Qin Boran was a little surprised, and also looked at the venue. Qin Boran, who was wearing a red dress, came onto the stage with his harp in his arms, with momentum like a rainbow: "I originally thought that Boxi would come back later." on stage."

"It turns out that the second brother is so shy in his heart." The self-satisfied host stretched his waist with great effort: "He didn't even dare to tell us his factory serial number."

"Yeah, Boxi has been so twisted since she was a child." Qin Boran smiled: "Little sister, how do you think Boxi can play?"

"Even if it's Mr. Nan Guo, I won't dislike him."

"Oh, you." Qin Boran was a little helpless: "If Ran Boxi hears what you say, there will be another big scene."

"It's always been the second brother's personality to be pushy, isn't it?" The proprietor proudly waved his fan with a smile: "I'm just fanning the flames for him."

"I knew you were bullying him."

"Haha, how can this be called bullying." The proud landlord raised his eyebrows, his eyes were sly: "It is clearly a unique way of communication between us brothers and sisters."

"Father will be happier if you can change this way of communication."

"Then I won't be me, and he won't be him, isn't it terrible?"

"Ha, it really is my sister."

Seeing the natural and intimate banter between Qin Boran and Xie Fangchen, Qin Shulan felt a strong sense of loss in her heart.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, but she just couldn't help but want to get close to Qin Boran, hoping to get Qin Boran's gaze, wanting to watch Qin Boran, and wanting to have a more intimate relationship.

Her heart has long been filled with the name Qin Boran, and she hopes that the three words Qin Shulan will also have a place in Qin Boran's heart.

Qin Shulan thinks this is the so-called longing. She grew up listening to the legend of Qin Boran, and has had countless fantasies about Qin Boran since she was a child. She is proud that such a powerful person is her cousin. When she arrived at Qin Boran, Qin Shulan felt that the sound of her heart beating filled the empty world.

She looked at Qin Boran with a blushing face, hoping that the legend in front of her could become an important part of her life, faintly, more importantly, the most important part.

Thinking of this, Qin Shulan lowered her head sadly, forcing tears back into her eyes.

She is just Qin Boran's cousin, the relationship is neither far nor near, the awkward and ambiguous distance, that's all.

So she is not as good as Xie Fangchen, and cannot have a closer relationship with Qin Boran, because Xie Fangchen and Qin Boran have the same blood flowing in their bodies, so Qin Boran is different from Xie Fangchen, it is unreserved love and love care.

Qin Shulan was not reconciled, maybe in the past ten years, she was just a substitute for Xie Fangchen who disappeared?

Sometimes, she would keep thinking, her heart was dark, why did Xie Fangchen come back?If she didn't come back...if she died...Qin Shulan didn't dare to continue thinking about it, such thoughts made her feel terrible and dirty.

If she couldn't have the same blood as Qin Boran, why was she born in the Qin family?Why should he have an embarrassing blood relationship with Qin Boran?

If she didn't know Qin Boran, if she wasn't Qin's child, wouldn't she be in such pain?Wouldn't it be impossible to fall into this quagmire of emotions?

Qin Shulan lowered her head, and it took a lot of effort to suppress her trembling and prevent others from discovering her abnormality. At this moment, where does she still feel the joy of being passed?The appearance of Xie Fangchen brought out countless emotions that she wanted to escape, made her feel ashamed, and made her feel ashamed.

In order to avoid the embarrassment that Qin Shulan found himself aware of, Qin Boran kept his back to her, and kept winking at Xie Fangchen, hoping that Xie Fangchen could say something to alleviate the current situation. It's not that he didn't know everything about Qin Shulan, but they The relationship between him and him has long been decided by God, and he will not give up the path he chose. He doesn't know what he has done to make Qin Shulan have such a strange feeling, but Qin Boran knows that the way to deal with the mess is the only way to deal with the ignorant. Qin Shulan in the best way.

Looking at the sad Qin Shulan, Fu Tingfang kept chanting on the proud landlord's shoulder: "Amitabha, emptiness is form, □□, Amitabha."

The proprietor propped his chin with both hands, and looked indifferently at Qin Boxi who was playing the harp in the middle of the venue: "A human being is a kind of animal without self-knowledge? He already has everything that others envy, but he still greedily wants more. many."

As soon as the landlord’s words were spoken, Qin Boran began to regret the choice he had just made. It was really unnecessary to go to the doctor for a sudden illness, and it was too late to stop him. Fundamentally, if you discard all these things because of your own selfishness, is a person still a person?"

The self-satisfied host didn't lower her voice, Qin Shulan's face was flushed when the questioning came into Qin Shulan's ears, tears rolled in her eyes, and she didn't dare to raise her head.

"Wishful thinking and self-righteousness are the most disgusting." The proud landlord frowned: "Wonderful thoughts that are useless are even more disgusting."

Hearing Qin Shulan's sobs faintly, Qin Boran felt that Xie Fangchen was exaggerating, but he couldn't turn around now, let alone comfort Qin Shulan, so he could only look at the proud host in disapproval and shook his head.

"Am I not right?" The proud landlord raised his eyebrows, still as casual as before: "The most despicable thing is to be self-willed and depraved. Life is so beautiful, and those who don't cherish it are not worthy of asking."

Now even Fu Tingfang couldn't bear it any longer, and pecked proudly the host's ear, angrily: "Master, the more you talk, the more you go too far."

"Hey, how come you have understood my painstaking efforts?" The proud landlord was not angry, and said with a smile: "No one can wake up people who are pretending to be asleep. Why don't you just give them a punch, unless they are dead, otherwise who can wake them up?" Are you unmoved?"

"Lord, Qin Shulan is just a little girl, not an old monster like you who has lived for hundreds of years!"

"Linglong mind is a good thing." The proprietor shook his fan proudly, "Wouldn't it be a pity if he fell into evil ways?"

"Landlord, you are really not suitable for getting along with children."

"If you are so sympathetic to her, why not let you comfort her."

The self-satisfied landlord raised his hand, and Fu Tingfang landed on Qin Shulan's lap, meeting her eyes.
