Chapter 75: The Divine Music of Phoenix Dance and Qin
Ding met Zixuan's eyes, nodded slightly and smiled, then grabbed the tea cup, took a sip with great interest, blinked his lips, and said aftertaste: "It seems bitter in the mouth, but it is sweet when you taste it. The taste is moist and mellow, it is the best tea!" After tasting it, Ding Yi rolled up his cuffs and made a clang of six copper coins. He pressed them gently on the table and said: "Miss Zixuan, I have entered the room now, the tea is also After drinking, it’s time to start divination, and ask, what do you want to divination?”
"No hurry! I'll give you a tune first! By the way, before that, I emphasize, don't call me Miss Zixuan anymore. This Central Plains way of calling me sounds very old-fashioned. From now on, you can call me Zixuan or Xuan'er. !" Zixuan used her right hand to turn her vitality, like waves submerging into the ocean, and rolled it on the desk in front of her. Feimeng Kingdom's imperial harp and phoenix dance harp, which had been passed down for several dynasties, immediately flew over and floated naturally and freely into the air.
Zixuan's delicate and beautiful hand stretched out into the air, and the Feng Wuqin slowly fell into her hand like a spirit. Looking closely at the Feng Wuqin, there were five crystal clear bones of alien animals on it, which were melted together with the polar ice crystals into the flaming volcano. The strings of the zither coincide with the five tones of Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng and Yu. The qin is engraved with a wonderful pattern of flying phoenixes. It is said that those with advanced qin skills can summon the legendary mythical beast Phoenix to come to the world when they play the qin to the extreme. .
"Zixuan?
"Okay! However, etiquette often says that a person must be courteous in dealing with people. If you call me Zixuan, what should I call you? I can't just scream Tianji Tianji all day long! Why don't I just call me Zixuan like a princess? You little stone!" Zixuan held the Fengwu Qin and sat quietly at the piano table next to her, looking at Ding Yi expectantly.
"My real name cannot be disclosed casually. Luo Xin is the only one who calls me Little Shitou. Zixuan and I have not known each other for a long time. It seems inappropriate to ask her to call her that. What should I ask her to call me?" Ding Yi thought to himself. After a long time, I couldn't think of a good name. Suddenly, I had an idea. I thought about changing the subject, but without replying, I smiled lightly and said: "Zixuan, as long as you are not called Xiao Shitou, what else do you want to be called?" All is fine! By the way, don’t you want the piano? I heard your music very well last time, and now in the dead of night, it’s an excellent time to play the piano. I’m sure you can come up with better songs, come and listen!”
"Yeah!" Zixuan's feelings for Ding Yi were growing in her heart. After hearing his praise, she couldn't help but nodded her head. She forgot about the question she just asked. She put her ten fingers on the strings and plucked them with her fingertips. Moving, the wonderful tones spread rapidly, sometimes in mountains and rivers, sometimes in flat rivers. The breeze blowing in the night sky seemed to be infected, and people stopped in their tracks, resting on the leaves on the branches, and swayed the leaves and branches in response to the melody.
The chirping insects can't help but blend into this beautiful and pleasant melody. The squeaking sound joins the sound of the piano, adding a few points of natural elegance to the music. People in their sleep seem to hear the divine sound from heaven. , when the brain is stimulated, it starts to have all kinds of sweet dreams that it most wishes to have but has never come true.
Ups and downs, melodious and sweet, the timbre falls into the heart, and all kinds of emotions, expectations for love, and pursuit of love arise unconsciously. Ding Yi is not aware of this layer, and just thinks it is Zixuan's excitement after saving her father. Feelings, my hands couldn't help but follow the beat, enjoying the gentle and intoxicating feeling. My eyelids slowly became heavy, my head gradually rested on the edge of the table, and I fell asleep unconsciously.
The sound of the phoenix dancing on the piano condenses into the night, half into the breeze and half into the clouds. This music can only be heard in the sky, and is rarely heard in the world. Zixuan's tune is so beautiful that people and animals within a ten-mile radius slowly fall into sleep, even in the river
Luo Xin, who was eavesdropping with her ears, was no exception. Zixuan glanced at Ding Yi from the corner of her eyes and saw that he was already asleep, so she quietly stopped moving her fingers. The sound of the piano suddenly stopped. She stood up affectionately and waved her delicate hands in front of Ding Yi.
Several times, after confirming that he was asleep, he quickly changed into a pink dress, tidied himself up, and sat there for a while, as if waiting for something. At this time, the door knocked with the Qijue tone.
Zixuan listened carefully with a solemn look on her face. She squeezed her soft forehead and walked to the door with light steps. She knocked back with the Qijue tone. The Qijue tone sounded again outside. Then she opened the door bolt and the door leaf creaked.
When they separated, they saw a man standing outside. He was all dressed in brocade, and he was very majestic. He had an emerald ring on his thumb. He stepped over the threshold and walked into the house. He whispered: "Zixuan, your "Dream Song" is really extraordinary.
Fan Xiang, even my martial arts master almost fell into a dream." At the same time, Dugu City turned his vitality into a screen to freeze the surrounding space to prevent others from knowing the secret.
Zixuan closed the door, threw up her sleeves, her bright eyes flashed like the crescent moon reflected in the lake, her red lips gleamed, her deep dimples winked, she bowed her hands and said: "Prince Zhen Guo, you
You saved my father, and now you are willing to risk your family and life to benefit the people of the world. I would like to thank you in advance." After Zixuan used a trick to ask Ding Yi to come to do divination for her tonight, she promptly notified Dugu City.
, and made corresponding arrangements.
Dugu Cheng habitually bent the thumb with the jade ring on it, shook his head slightly, looked generous, and said righteously: "Zixuan, you are exaggerating. Your father works for the welfare of the people of Feimeng Kingdom.
He also helps me, the Cangyun Kingdom, to restore its orthodoxy. As a noble nobleman, how can I not sacrifice my life and blood and do my best for the people of the world?"
After saying that, he turned to look at Ding Yi and saw that he was breathing evenly and seemed to be in a deep sleep. Dugu Cheng's bronze forehead was wrinkled like a folding fan. He put his fingers on the jade ring and said slightly worriedly: "Zixuan, in your father's house
During the discussion, you mentioned that the dream song can make people fall asleep for a night, and we want the heaven to predict the good or bad of this matter for us, but he has also fallen into a dream, is there any way to wake him up? "
"Of course!" Zixuan's eyebrows stretched. She walked towards Ding Yi step by step. With a wave of her hand, a thin translucent string magically wound between the thumb and index finger of her left hand, like a delicate bow.
The thumb and index finger bent into a small circle and moved gently into the strings. A very weak sound wave only spread in the distance between the strings and Ding Yi, turning into a sound arrow and penetrating Ding Yi's eardrum, washing away the nerves of sleep.
Ding Yi stood up as if he was struck by lightning. The stool below was impacted by the muscle power of his calf, and moved a little distance away with a squeaking sound. He pressed his hands on the edge of the table, and his vitality naturally floated up from his Dantian to all sides, forming a circle.
There were layers of human-shaped aura, flashing with folds of light, and his eyes looked forward warily. Only when he recognized Dugu Cheng and Zixuan did he feel relieved.
Ding Yi shook his head, his hand was pulled, and he touched the copper coin on the table. It made a few crisp sounds. He looked at the copper coin, his eyes were like glass beads rolling on the ground. After recalling it in his mind,
An apology appeared on his face, and he looked slightly uneasy. He turned to Zixuan and said: "Zixuan, I'm sorry, I just wanted to make a divination for you, but I fell asleep after listening to your beautiful music. By the way, this divination is going to happen now."
Divination, or should we do it another day?" After saying this, Ding Yi put away the copper coins on the table, hiding his inner uneasiness caused by falling asleep while listening to someone else's piano and feeling rude.
Zixuan looked at Ding Yi's groggy and anxious expression, couldn't help but pursed her lips and laughed secretly, her whole body was trembling wildly, making Ding Yi unconscious. After a while, she stopped smiling and said: "Now!
"
"Now?" Ding was stunned for a moment. The copper coins he held in his hand suddenly tightened, and his body took a step back. He looked at Dugu City out of the corner of his eyes and thought to himself: "Ziying is not predicting marriage.
Hexagram? How is this appropriate when Duke Zhen Guo is present? Yes, when did Duke Zhen Guo come in? Why didn’t I react at all? "
When Zixuan saw Ding Yi looking at Dugu City, she thought he was angry that Dugu City had been asked to observe the hexagram without his consent, so she hurriedly explained: "Brother Ji, the hexagram I asked about today is related to Duke Zhen Guo..."
When Ding heard this, his self-esteem was greatly hit, his eyes showed displeasure, his brows were furrowed like rough paper, anger quickly surged from his heart, he interrupted Zixuan and said: "Wait! Zixuan, when will I become an adult?"
Got chicken breast!"
"Huh? Brother machine...chicken breasts..." Zixuan trembled for a while, her dimples flashed dark and light, her black eyes fluttered with shining light, and she said with a faint smile: "You can call me whatever you want.
, you are called Tianji. It seems that you are older than me, so I will call you Brother Ji! However, judging from your reaction, it seems that you are not older than me. If you are younger than me, I will call you Brother Ji!"
"Chicken brother?" Ding waved his hands repeatedly, resolutely objecting to Zixuan's call. Although he was angry in his heart, he could only answer Zixuan's explanation. He could only hold back his anger and couldn't help but secretly regret what he said.
It was clever to change the subject and not tell him his real name, but in the end he was called this way. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Even if you call me Xiaoji, no, you can call me Xiaotian, it's still better than Brother Chicken, Brother Chicken."
Dugu Cheng couldn't help but laugh while listening to the exchange between Ding Yi and Zixuan. He just thought that it was inappropriate to offend him, who was rumored to be quite aloof, so he quickly silenced himself and stood still in meditation.
Zixuan's delicate lips bulged forward, suppressing the smile in her heart, and continued after a moment: "Then I'll call you Xiaotian! I will continue what I said just now, things are like this, and such and such
." Zixuan explained that the divination was for the sake of the common people in the world and helped the prince of the previous dynasty ascend to the throne.
"Aren't you going to ask about the fate of the country? How come it has become a big thing about the fortune of the country?" Ding Yi looked surprised, his eyes almost bulging out, thinking: "Ask the fate of the country, support the emperor again, save all people, and benefit the common people.
.These hexagrams, which are related to the common people in the world, must be big hexagrams according to the hexagram theory. However, it is easy to predict the hexagrams, but it is a peek into the supreme secret of heaven. Will it bring about divine punishment?" Ding Yi's heart was like light shining through the lake, shining directly into the bottom of the water,
I was thinking about whether to ask this hexagram for Zixuan.
