Summer is long, and when the three women in white returned to Wangyue Stream, it was already midnight, but the sun was still lying on the top of the mountain and refused to go back.

Li Xiuyuan, who had woken up from sleep, was sitting under the eaves making tea with his wife. The dishes were on the table and the rice was in the pot, waiting for the two of them to go home.

The woman in white couldn't help but frowned as she looked at the master and apprentice with their calm expressions.

The master looked at her and asked, "Should we drink tea first or eat first?"

"Let's have some tea first. I'm tired of spending time with these two little guys." The woman in white realized for the first time that she couldn't resist her daughter's madness.

At this time, she missed Li Ye who had been with Xuantian Temple for several years, the guy who had been with her daughter for several years and brought Nangong Ruyu from a little girl who had not yet gathered her energy to a young man in the late Jindan stage.

Nangong Ruyu went to the back of the house to fetch water and washed a basin of wild fruits, brought it to Li Xiuyuan, and said softly: "Master, today I am also learning from Yu'er to scare people... Come and eat a wild fruit, Yu'er just picked it."

."

After speaking, he picked up a fruit and stuffed it into Li Xiuyuan's hand.

Li Xiuyuan took a bite and said with a smile: "It's okay. I haven't eaten for a long time and I miss it a little." Naturally, he didn't mention a word about his breaking through.

The woman in white looked at the Master and asked, "Is the Master practicing today?" The smart woman deliberately made a detour.

The master shook his head and said with a smile: "How can the old man break through the situation? Of course it is my disciple."

Qingying looked at Li Xiuyuan and said nothing, and deliberately shouted: "I'm hungry!"

Li Xiuyuan was happy, but he thought that Ying'er was smart and understood himself. He pointed to the kitchen and replied: "The rice is in the pot."

Nangong Ruyu glanced at her mother, stood up and walked to the kitchen: "Yu'er is hungry too." In her opinion, there was no result in asking about what Li Xiuyuan was avoiding.

The Master was silent and watched several people playing riddles.

The woman in white didn't give up and continued to ask: "Li Xiuyuan, what state are you in now?"

"I'm still in the Nascent Soul realm? Senior, you won't misunderstand me, right? I also want to break through to a higher realm."

Li Xiuyuan thought to himself, since you can't see it, I won't admit it even to death.

How could the woman in white believe him, but she really couldn't find any evidence, because her master was uncooperative.

Nangong Ruyu brought the food to the table, looked at Li Xiuyuan and said, "I want to learn to play the piano. Master, you promised to teach me. It has been many years."

Li Xiuyuan was stunned, pointed at the master and said: "My piano skills were taught by the teacher, you can take the master as your teacher."

The master shook his head, looked at him and said with a smile: "You are already better than your old master, the master is old."

Li Xiuyuan frowned and put the fruit core in his hand on the table, as if he was unwilling to accept Nangong Ruyu's words: "I learn piano from the teacher just like I go to Juqi Pavilion to learn knifemaking. It's just to cultivate my temperament, not

Used for practice."

Nangong Ruyu smiled and said: "I never thought about breaking through with one song like the master. I just need to learn to play the piano?"

"That's it!" Li Xiuyuan didn't reject Nangong Ruyu for some unknown reason, but just held the chair tightly: "Learning the piano is very hard, and you may not be able to learn it even if you put in the effort."

Nangong Ruyu looked at him and said seriously: "I want to try it!"

The master looked at the two of them and smiled: "Eat first, the tea is cold."

The woman in white looked at Nangong Ruyu's appearance and said with a smile: "We'll talk about it in the evening after dinner."

...

After dinner, it was already full moon on the willow branches, the green eagle went to bed early, and the master and the woman in white looked at the full moon and made tea.

Nangong Ruyu and Li Xiuyuan were sitting under the tree, looking at the guqin on the table in a daze.

"I'm thinking, why do you want me to learn Qin Dao from me? Didn't your mother teach you?" Li Xiuyuan was confused and asked Nangong Ruyu in a daze.

"No! How could she?"

At this time, Nangong Ruyu had a glimmer of hope in her eyes. She looked up at the moon in the night sky and saw Li Ye teaching her how to play the piano at the Tianshan Mountains in the distant past.

Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and said quietly: "I will teach you to learn the piano according to my teacher's method."

"Since I have nothing to do, I will practice the piano with my master, hoping that one day I will become a Taoist with the piano and surpass my senior sister!" Nangong Ruyu thought about one day surpassing Dongfang Yu'er in piano skills.

"Everything in the world is impermanent. I believe you will be able to realize your dream. To learn the piano, you must first cultivate your heart and your state of mind." Li Xiuyuan looked at the piano platform and said softly.

"Teacher, I understand in my heart." Nangong Ruyu nodded lightly and murmured: "I haven't heard the sound of nature for ten years. It turns out that Fuqin is an old friend."

Looking at the two people under the tree, the Master nodded with deep approval, and looked at Li Xiuyuan with even more satisfaction.

Smiling, he said to the woman in white: "I never thought that a little girl could also recite poems and write poems."

The woman in white shook her head and said with a smile: "How can she know this? Her former master taught her this."

"You must have confidence in yourself!" Li Xiuyuan looked at her and said, "Have confidence first, and then you can cultivate your mind..."

"Master, how long will it take for me to learn?" Nangong Ruyu was looking forward to it. She didn't know how long her mother would stay here, and she didn't know how long it would take Li Xiuyuan to teach her how to play the piano.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head, smiled and did not answer, but held the strings with both hands.

The moonlight shone quietly on the two people under the tree, and the two people under the eaves also watched quietly.

Just listen to the tinkling sound, and the sound of the piano echoes under the trees. The music is quiet and peaceful, making people feel ethereal and clear.

Nangong Ruyu was moved by the sound of the piano. Looking at Li Xiuyuan in front of her, she felt as if a seed was sprouting in her heart and a leaf grew. Li Xiuyuan, who was sitting on the piano platform, had a faint moonlight all over his body.

Nangong Ruyu's fingers moved naturally along with Li Xiuyuan's piano sounds, as if she was seeing the beating notes one by one, like elves in the snow.

Closing her eyes, Nangong Ruyu felt completely empty, as if she had returned to the Tianshan Mountains back then.

It seemed as if I had returned to the Tianshan Mountains. The cold light from the sky washed my body and seeped into my heart. In my mind, there were hands caressing the strings.

There was a man in monk's robes, facing the cave. In front of him was a little girl playing the piano with both hands, causing the sky to be full of snow and moon outside the cave.

The sound of the piano remained the same, and Nangong Ruyu entered a state of selflessness.

She could see the musical notes constantly seeping into her mind, and her ethereal and clear state of mind allowed her to be quiet and relaxed, leaving all the turmoil in the world behind her at this moment.

There is a harp in Tianshan, but no one knows about it. The master wants to play the harp, but he has passed away...

Unknowingly, the song ended, and Nangong Ruyu still closed her eyes, wandering in the sky.

After playing the piano three times, Li Xiuyuan sighed and stopped.

Then he stared blankly at Nangong Ruyu who was in trance. Is this still his student? He fell into trance after listening to just one song. Even he couldn't do this back then.

After an unknown amount of time, Nangong Ruyu slowly opened her eyes, looked at Xiu Yuan and asked, "Master, what kind of music is this?"

"Four machines." Li Xiuyuan replied quietly, just like the master in the bamboo house told Li Xiuyuan back then.

"When I listened to the teacher's piano, my mood changed a little bit, and my perception seemed to be getting stronger. I want to learn piano."

Looking up at Li Xiuyuan, Nangong Ruyu said seriously. The sound of the piano can bring peace to her and him. Over the years, she has been uneasy because of Li Ye's incident, which has also affected the speed of her practice.

It seemed as if a voice sounded in her mind: You are the best Yu'er!

"This is a natural thing. If you want to learn, I will teach you." Li Xiuyuan smiled and nodded. "Learn the most basic piano music first, and be familiar with the music score before that."

Looking at Nangong Ruyu's serious eyes, Li Xiuyuan handed Nangong Ruyu the piano score that his master had given him.

Li Xiuyuan sat in front of the guqin with a dignified expression and patiently explained everything to Nangong Ruyu.

"It's not a big deal to learn the piano...Fingering, gestures, music notation, music, theory, as long as you learn and practice more, you will be as natural as chopping firewood in the kitchen...

."

Nangong Ruyu learned quickly. It took Li Xiuyuan an hour to finish the basics, and another hour to teach him how to play and fingering...

After Nangong Ruyu listened to it once, she tried to pluck the strings, gradually changing from raw to mature.

He sat for a whole day, and as night gradually grew, Li Xiuyuan lay down on the floor and gradually fell asleep.

Nangong Ruyu was still sitting in front of the piano, plucking the strings over and over again.

Nangong Ruyu played the piano with both hands, and gently plucked the strings with her fingertips. The notes jumped. At the beginning, it was like a mountain stream encountering an obstacle, sometimes tinkling, sometimes stuck in the cracks of the rocks and whimpering.

After gradually becoming familiar with it, I passed my fingers across it, and the notes seemed to be given life. Gradually, there was no longer a whimpering sound, but a cheerful ding-dong sound.

The girl's face was still so quiet, her hands seemed to have magic power, and her fingertips were beating along with the notes.

"It's incredible! It only took one day to get in. This girl is also a good prospect."

In the room, the master heard the music of the piano, with a happy smile in the corners of his eyes.

Nangong Ruyu was immersed in the music of the piano, as if possessed by a demon. She played all night long, but she didn't feel tired at all. On the contrary, she only felt that her state of mind was extremely clear.

In the early morning of the next day, she opened her eyes after taking a nap next to the piano for an hour. When she turned around, she saw that Li Xiuyuan was still dreaming, but there was a faint smile on his face.

A bright smile appeared in her eyes, as if she had returned to that time.

As soon as he reached out, he saw a book of piano music beside Li Xiuyuan. He took it over and took a look. He saw three words written on it: Four Zhang Ji.

...

There are four looms, trying to weave mandarin ducks and breaking the shuttle, but the east wind can't help but the shadows of the flowers are sparse.

The sound of shock breaks, the boredom disappears, when is the return date?

"The startling sound is broken, the boredom is gone, when is the return date?" Nangong Ruyu frowned slightly and whispered.

At this time, there was a voice, and the master walked out of the room, came to the living room, looked at Nangong Ruyu and smiled.

"Actually, this poem should be about Jiuzhanji. I thought it was too long, so I only recorded the first four." After finishing speaking, the master waved his hand and lit the small stove on the table.
To be continued...
