Miss Bach's Crab Canon

Before today, she, Ioannis, should have been just a name, a historical figure who had become a great symbol.

She is in the deepest part of music, but she is just a handful of dust from history.She left behind a vast sea of ​​works, but they are summarized by English abbreviations and numbers, and will only be played by future generations forever.People cared more about those works than about her.Because everyone knows that no matter how great she is, she is a dead person after all.

However, there seems to be a miracle.

"You..." Gao Yiyu opened his mouth, wanting to ask something, but got stuck.

why are you still aliveShe was about to ask.

But this question is not good. You can tell at a glance that it is those demons, devils and other things that are doing things.

Gao Yiyu originally thought that this trip to history was just to clean up the devil and restore history—for example, Deli Dolly took out a history book, and they wrote what is real history on it, ensuring that Joannis is still the whole music history The biggest pillar of my life... probably like this, I will be able to go back consummately.

In the end, I saw someone...

"Excuse me—are you really from the future?" In the end, it was Joannis who broke the embarrassment of Gao Yiyu's silence.

"Yeah." Gao Yiyu nodded subconsciously, and couldn't even finish the "nodding" naturally and smoothly.

This is not only the fans meeting the idol in their hearts, but also the living meeting the living dead in the grave.

It is a chance encounter between a girl of the same age and the same hobby, and a person who has the same secret—a destined encounter.

"It seems that it is not a lie to be attracted by those strange future music, and to be able to meet me."

Joannis looked at Gao Yiyu with sharp eyes, but her face was full of confusion, she asked again.

"You're with the devil, aren't you?"

"A gang? That sounds like a bad guy."

But this is not just a description, Joannis tried to hide her nervousness, she was obviously on guard, she made her squinted eyes more fierce: "I signed a contract with a devil, and she said she would protect me from being Future enemies will harm you, and you will not be able to harm me."

ah?What?

Gao Yiyu was even more confused, which was contrary to what she knew.

"I'm not hostile."

In short——she slowly raised her hands and spread them out, indicating that there was no weapon or hostility, and then explained.

"In fact, I made a pact with a demon to come with her to this era to save you. Because your history, your music, will be eaten by the devil—or so I heard."

Gao Yiyu hesitated for a moment, then added nervously.

"Oh really!"

It's a pity that the words are pale, and the two sides' statements are really contradictory...

It sounds like the devil is actually protecting Joannis?

Either one of the parties lied, or the demon or devil of one party lied.

Gao Yiyu believed that he was not lying, and he also felt that Miss Joannis did not seem to be lying.

But after thinking about it, it is more likely that I was brainwashed, manipulated memory, and cognition unintentionally by the devil; or Joannis was used, pretended, and set a trap by the devil... All of these are possible.

While this is a troublesome situation, it's wonderful.Because before today, Joannis was like a character in a myth, and in a blink of an eye, they were involved in the same predicament together.

In short - Gao Yiyu reached into his pocket and took out a gold coin.

"—Delidoori, come out and explain."

"—Ms. Rest, she doesn't seem to be lying."

Coincidentally, the voices of the two girls sounded at the same time, like two stringed instruments finally in tune.

Gao Yiyu found that not only did he take out the gold coins to summon the demon, Joannis also picked up the bow and called to the bow.

After the sounds and movements were over, the two of them discovered the consistency of each other's movements and understood what the other was doing—it was the same thing as themselves.

But nothing happened.

People in the small town of Eisenach come and go, and the sun and atmosphere at noon are the same as before.

Unlike the peaceful daily life in Europe in the seventeenth century, neither the devil nor the devil seemed to have ever existed, and neither responded to any of their calls.The two of them became overwhelmed again, looked at each other with a little embarrassment, and lasted for two seconds before slowly separating.

No way, Gao Yiyu took the gold coin to his ear again, like a student sitting in the front row at school, under the nose of the teacher, it is very difficult to whisper.

"Hey, what's the matter? What's going on now? I actually saw that Joannis. Aren't you a big devil who loves music? Aren't you coming out? Let's get an autograph together, otherwise I'm too embarrassed to be alone... …That devil doesn’t seem to be a bad thing by the way.”

"...I'm accumulating strength." A small voice finally came from the gold coin.

"What do you mean?"

"...The other party is the same, I didn't expect to meet like this, it seems that we have been prepared for our arrival." Deli Dolly gritted his teeth, and even the temperature of the gold coin also dropped, "As expected of my mortal enemy, the devil of rest! "

Hearing this tone, Gao Yiyu gradually understood that she and Miss Joannis met by chance, but Deli Dolly, and the devil known as the rest, they met on a narrow road...

As for the moment of chatting, the two opponents were actually holding back their big moves in silence.

A second later—the reality confirmed this idea.

The one who got ready first was the other party, the devil who leaned on the bow, set a trap, and waited for them here.

"--coming."

Gao Yiyu didn't know what happened, but he heard Joannis screaming in panic, and a powerful force sprang out from the gold coin-then, after a burst, the world became extremely quiet.

Previously, the excitement of the small town of Eisenach was still lingering in my ears, but now there is nothing left.

A beat later, Gao Yiyu realized that this was something he had experienced before, the phenomenon that froze the world.But unlike that time, Deli Duoli was not joking with her, showing full killing intent towards the enemy.The two opponents have both come out of the deposited items, and in this frozen world, they have shown their real bodies.

One is a thick and colorful black mist, with a female arm, and I don't know what kind of power it hides.

The other is a blank space that seems to be gouging out the space, as if it wants to swallow everything and nothingness.

"Deli Dolly, you really fell for it."

"You are as cunning as ever."

"You came here to rewrite the history of Joannis, right? Her religious music is your natural enemy, so I came here early to protect her."

"Liar. I always love music, even if her music will destroy me, but you, you have uprooted her history, obviously you are playing tricks."

The old acquaintances, the devil and the demon, are really full of fighting spirit. They not only fight with each other, but also engage in seemingly complicated inside stories, and hand in each other from time to time.

Gao Yiyu looked up at the top of the city, the church was there, didn't anyone in charge come out for a walk?Does the Holy Roman Empire just let the monsters fight to the death and affect the people?No wonder he was so humiliated by later generations...

Suddenly, Deli Dolly called out: "Comrade, help me, the enemy is very strong."

"Me?" Gao Yiyu said "uh", planning to take refuge.As for helping, what can I do?But I can play some BGM or something to help them make music, what should I play...

"If you want to go back and change back to the original, just play some tritones to strengthen my strength." Deli Dolly looked anxious.

"what!"

On the other hand, Devil Rest is not to be outdone, she is also calling for help.

"Ioannis! Please do me a favor too, in order to avoid their fate of obliterating you... play some tritone surrogate chords to weaken the de Ridori."

After explaining to each other's helpers, the battle between the devil and the devil started without any hesitation, and from time to time, they exploded from time to time.

But it has nothing to do with the battle—damn it, Gao Yiyu, who was listening, almost blurted out a dirty word to express his feelings, this music devil, can he become stronger or weaker by this?She was holding back her laughter, yet she really wanted to scold others. Who should she share this contradictory and delicate mood with...

Ah, found it.

Gao Yiyu's eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of her, Joannis, who was also entrusted with important tasks, in a corner of the battlefield.She was covering her mouth, but still whispered softly, flowing into the battlefield from her fingers, it was a full of laughter.

Unknowingly, she also looked at Gao Yiyu - a slight look of surprise flashed, and then it turned into a very similar smile.

Because different from before, now they clearly know what each other is laughing at.

In this evil battlefield of collisions, fights, yelling, and exposing each other——

Joannis looked at the baroque guitar and Gao Yiyu's face again.

"Don't you play tritone chords?" Gao Yiyu asked softly, holding the instrument.

"Well, that's fine. I can't connect until you play a tritone." Although Joannis was carrying a violin and bow, she showed a shy smile.

Different from the harsh, uncomfortable, and unharmonious tritones that symbolize evil, human musicians use brilliant ideas to make a small move in the tritones—making it a unique beauty. chords.

That is the tritone surrogate chord.

They walked towards each other unconsciously.Although every time you take a step, you will stop for a while because of hesitation.They are like two notes written together by accident, trying to climb to the correct grid, forming a beautiful chord.

As they approached, they could not only hear the fierce battle between the devil and the devil, but also reached the distance where they could touch each other's instruments with their hands, although they could vaguely hear some complaints of "why haven't you played yet?!" mixed in the battle.

Ioannis smiled and said, "But you played a tritone, I changed it to an alternate chord, and you played another tritone... It's like an endless struggle, and the effects will cancel each other out..."

"Then, we've already restrained each other." Gao Yiyu thought it was good.

"Hmm! Since I've tried my best, I still can't help, and there's nothing I can do... I can't help it." Although there was an apology on her face, Joannis still blushed and accepted it.

There was vague shouting and cursing on the battlefield, and the two of them tacitly responded with cheers and solidarity—although the shouting and scolding seemed to grow louder, it should be considered a success of encouragement, right?Gao Yiyu thought so.

Before the winner was decided, she didn't want to miss the opportunity to have a few words with Joannis.

"Can I ask you a question?"

"Can you tell me what the future holds!"

——But the other party seems to be doing the same.

……

ps

(Sorry for the late arrival, but I forced myself to code out despite the discomfort of jet lag.

Although I don’t really want to write complicated music theory, because it does affect everyone’s reading a bit, but it’s good to understand it as a stupid author who can’t get it...)

011. Helpers

This is a silent world.

History stands still and time is frozen.

But this was not deliberate as a demon, Deli Duoli, and she didn't stop everything because she was worried that the battle would affect innocent residents of the small town—in fact, she didn't even have the energy to do so.What caused the world to freeze was the power of the enemy in front of Deridoli.

The supreme devil named "rest" represents the incarnation of the concept of "nothingness".

Whether it is the process of history or the flow of time, all flowing things or concepts can be affected by her power, and a rest sign symbolizing an abrupt end can be added, and then completely stopped.

The rest, is one of the oldest musical incarnations, even older than the deridoli, which represents the tritone.

therefore--

"You old woman, your joints have degenerated like that, and you can still move?" Deli Dolly, who claimed to be younger, poked the other's sore foot.

Although this seems to only irritate the other party and make one's disadvantages more obvious, it is always fun to scold.

Deli Duoli barely supported the situation. Although she could distort history, she was not strong enough—this can be seen from her appearance. She couldn't even maintain her shape, and she could only barely expose one arm. All dissipated into a black mist.

"Deli Dolly, the creator and twister of history, you are really bleak now."

"Is the old woman going to preach?"

Between the battles, they, who had known each other for a long time, would of course chat a few words.

While chatting, Rest seemed to be irritated by the "old woman" heard frequently, and deliberately used a girlish voice that sounded innocent and cute: "You, who are at the top of all demons, have become pitiful now. You who play with history, no Can history be expected to abandon coins?"

"I just respect history and don't intend to interfere."

After answering, Deli Dolly dodged an attack, even if it was only scratched, everything about him would be stopped, as if an abrupt rest was written into the coherent music score.

"And you, you uprooted the history of Joannes Sebastian Bach, deceived her, and used it for you? This is a stain on history. Do you want to destroy human music?"

"I just made a promise with her to give her what she wants, and she is willing to use the most sacred and great music to help me deal with the enemy."

"Are you dealing with me..."

While speaking, Deli Dolly broke into the surrounding clinics.

Inside, a well-dressed doctor and freckled assistant, knife in hand, treat a child.

The child's face was crowded with large and small blisters, and there were scars that had been picked off. It was ugly. Pus, blood, and dirt accumulated on the child's face, which was distorted by the pain and became even more terrifying. faces.

He had severe smallpox and was sent to a clinic for treatment.As for the treatment method, it is to stretch out a leg and let the doctor cut it.There is also a small basin below, which contains the blood that has been released.

And Deli Duoli stretched out his hand into the basin, and started the oldest power acquisition, gaining combat power from the blood of pure children.

As the price for enjoying blood donation, Deli Duoli distorted a piece of history, changing his fate from dying of blood loss and smallpox to being able to live in an ordinary way without any impact on history.

Rest Talisman happened to catch up and still had the upper hand, a small pot of blood could not shake the result after all.
