Dinner was made by A Gu.
It knew how to use all the tools in the house, including electrical appliances and kitchen utensils. It had mastered cooking skills, such as cutting vegetables and washing dishes. It was taciturn, hardworking, loyal, and reliable. It also knew magic …
There was no butler more perfect than A Gu.
After dinner, Zuo Yi asked it to bring out the tea table and chairs in the yard, and made a pot of Da Hong Pao tea.
It was completely dark now, and the night sky was dotted with stars. The evening wind swept across the river bank and blew into the Zuo family's old house, bringing with it the coolness of the water vapor and the fragrance of the earth and grass.
The light in the living room spilled through the lattice glass window onto the bluestone floor tiles. It was quiet and beautiful.
"Brother Zuo …"
Looking at the Giant Spirit Wizard Slave standing by the side, Zhang Jingyao, who was sitting opposite Zuo Yi, could not help but ask, "Where did Agu come from?"
The superstar was really curious. Her heart felt like it was being scratched by a kitten, and she would feel uncomfortable if she didn't ask.
She had never even heard of such a strange existence.
Zuo Yi took a sip of tea from a porcelain cup and asked with a smile, "Do you want to buy it?"
Zhang Jingyao's face darkened. "I can't afford it, so I'm just asking."
She hadn't forgotten the heavy blow she had suffered at Zuo Yi's place, and she touched her face subconsciously.
The thousand face mask was really amazing. Ever since she became famous, Zhang Jingyao had never thought that one day she would be able to walk in a crowd without wearing sunglasses and a mask, and do whatever she wanted.
Zhang Jingyao really, really wanted to have it forever!
But she couldn't afford it!!!
Zuo Yi said, "Don't ask if you can't afford it. It's useless."
Zhang Jingyao: "…"
She had hundreds of millions of fans, and she was sought after by countless fans. She had won so many awards that her hands were sore, and her works had sold tens of millions of copies. Her charm was unstoppable …
But in front of Zuo Yi, she realized that it was useless.
Most importantly, Zhang Jingyao could feel that Zuo Yi really didn't care about her, and he wasn't pretending to be indifferent.
The only person who could comfort her was Bao'er, her little fangirl.
The unwilling Zhang Jingyao rolled her eyes and said to the little girl with a smile, "Little Sister Bao'er, thank you for shopping with me today. Let me sing you a song."
The Bao'er was playing a game of rock, paper, scissors with Teck. She had just defeated Tai, who only knew how to use his fists, for the tenth time with a 100% win rate. When she heard Zhang Jingyao's words, her eyes lit up. "Okay, okay!"
The little girl clapped her little hands and shouted, "Atay, Pipi, let's clap and welcome Sister Jingyao! She's going to sing for us!"
Pa pa pa!
Teck stood up like a human and clapped his two front paws loudly, looking like a lackey.
Pipi, who was squatting on Bao 'er's shoulder, had a murderous look in his eyes.
It's her, it's her, it's her. She's the one who stole so much of Bao 'er's attention, causing my position in the family to be seriously threatened!
"Thank you."
Zhang Jingyao stood up slowly and tidied up her skirt. She took two steps forward and turned around to face Zuo Yi and Bao 'er. She smiled and said, "I'll sing Firefly for everyone."
There was no powerful backing band, no multi-million dollar lighting, and no tens of thousands of crazy fans, but she seemed to be standing on a dazzling stage, suddenly emitting a dazzling radiance.
The whole courtyard seemed to be lit up by her radiance!
"Firefly, firefly flies slowly. Summer night, summer night, the wind blows gently …"
A cool breeze blew, causing her skirt to flutter.
She opened her cherry mouth and a heavenly voice flowed out from between her red lips and white teeth. "Children who are afraid of the dark, sleep peacefully. Let the firefly give you some light. Burning, small figures in the night, illuminate the way for the travelers at night … "
"Short life, strive to shine, let the dark world be filled with hope!"
A small firefly flew out of nowhere and passed through the gaps between the camphor tree crowns. It slowly landed beside Zhang Jingyao, flashing with light.
She clasped her hands together and closed her eyes. Her extremely clear voice drifted with the wind, like a clear spring that nourished the heart of the listener. It also seemed to be weaving a fairy tale in a dream, washing away all the dirt in the mortal world.
"Firefly, firefly flies slowly. My heart, my heart is still chasing. The lights of the city shine, who will remember your burning brightness …"
More fireflies appeared.
They flew up and down around Zhang Jingyao, as if they were intoxicated by her voice and were filled with endless joy.
Bao 'er was stunned.
Although there was no music accompaniment, the feeling of listening to Zhang Jingyao's singing at such a close distance was completely different from watching a video.
So there was such a moving voice in the world. It was indescribably beautiful!
"The lights of the city shine, who will remember your burning brightness …"
The song ended, but the lingering sound was still echoing in their ears!
Zhang Jingyao opened her eyes and revealed a sweet smile. She bowed slightly to salute the audience.
The fireflies reluctantly scattered and flew away.
"Ah ~"
The little fangirl clapped desperately and pulled Zuo Yi next to her. "Daddy, daddy!"
Zuo Yi clapped with a smile and nodded to show his approval.
She was indeed a natural singer. Her voice contained extraordinary charm. Although it was slightly immature, her potential was not to be underestimated.
Zhang Jingyao returned and sat down again. She held Bao 'er's little hand and asked, "Bao' er, did I sing well?"
"Yes!"
Bao 'er replied without hesitation. "It's too good!"
"But …"
Zhang Jingyao said in a slightly wronged tone, "But your father seems to think that I don't sing well."
Bao 'er immediately turned to look at Zuo Yi, her eyes wide open. Daddy, is that true?
Zhang Jingyao snickered, feeling that she had finally regained a little bit of her dignity.
Then she heard Zuo Yi say, "Your Jingyao sings well, but daddy has heard someone better than her."
What?
Zhang Jingyao suddenly became anxious. "Impossible!"
It was not that Zhang Jingyao was arrogant, but in the field of singing, she had never met a match.
There was once a world-renowned music master who heard Zhang Jingyao's live performance. He said that her voice was a treasure that God had given to mankind. No one could compare to her!
"Nothing is impossible."
Zuo Yi glanced at her and decided to give her another blow. "I once heard a singer sing. Her voice made an iron-blooded king bow his head, ended a war with millions of deaths, and made the evilest people cry and repent. Even the demons in the abyss wanted to listen to her voice, even at the cost of their lives."
Zhang Jingyao was stunned. "Is there such a person in the world?"
"There is no such person in this world."
Zuo Yi said indifferently, "She is in another world. The distance between you and her is as far as the distance between the Bluestar and the moon."
Zuo Yi was not talking about the distance of space.
Zhang Jingyao did not speak.
"You don't believe me?"
Zuo Yi smiled and said, "Then listen to her voice."
As he spoke, he took out a white crystal from his spatial ring.
This crystal was diamond-shaped and about half a foot tall. It emitted a faint light and looked very beautiful.
It immediately attracted the attention of Zhang Jingyao and Bao 'er.
The little girl asked curiously, "Daddy, what is this?"
"This is a Memory Crystal."
Zuo Yi explained, "It is used to store sound and image."
The Memory Crystal was a high-level law creation. Its function was similar to a video camera, but it was much more powerful. It could record and store sound and image for several eras, and could be recreated in a near-perfect way at any time.
The Memory Crystal used the spiritual power of the holder as its energy source. The stronger the user's spiritual power, the more vivid and lifelike the sound and image would be!
Zuo Yi had five Memory Crystals, and this was one of them. The last record was from the Radiant Empire Grand Opera House ten years ago.
As a large amount of spiritual power was continuously injected, the light emitted by the Memory Crystal became brighter and brighter. The surrounding space was illuminated, but it was not dazzling at all.
Zuo Yi opened his five fingers, and the Memory Crystal seemed to be pulled by an invisible force. It slowly floated to a place a few meters in front of him and hovered motionlessly in the air.
Pa!
Zuo Yi snapped his fingers. It was time to witness a miracle!
I also recommend a friend's new book, "I Cultivate in the Mortal World". It talks about the daily life of cultivation after the recovery of spiritual power. Friends who like it can take a look.
