On the field.
Kumu stared at Gu Qingfeng with a complicated look.
He didn't believe that this man was a Childe Chiyan, let alone the King's heir.
But after the song "The Wind Blows Over Mount Daqing", not only did he suspect that this man might be a Childe Chiyan, but he also suspected that he was the King's heir.
Putting aside the fact that only the King could resurrect after death, he firmly believed that this song "The Wind Blows Over Mount Daqing" could not be played without the King's personal guidance. Because several of the tunes in the song were created by the King himself, and he was the only one in the world who knew how to play it. If others only relied on comprehension, they would not be able to figure it out. At least for hundreds of years, whether it was a musical genius, a musical master, or even reincarnated, no one could do it.
"Are you really the Scarlet Flame Young Noble who was annihilated three years ago?"
Elder Kumu solemnly inquired.
Gu Qingfeng nodded with a smile.
"Are you really the King's heir?"
Gu Qingfeng didn't know how to respond to this question for a while. He thought for a moment and smiled faintly. "Old man, can you listen to me play another song?"
"Why?"
"After listening to this song, I can answer the doubts in your heart."
After saying that, Gu Qingfeng touched the guqin with both hands and played again.
The melody sounded, but it was not like the "The Wind Blows Over Mount Daqing" that could swallow mountains and rivers. The style of the song was very strange. To be exact, it had some ups and downs, like the high mountains and flowing water, and the rhythm was sometimes fast and sometimes slow.
Hearing this song, many people's eyes lit up, especially Qingxi. When the melody sounded, she knew that the song Gu Qingfeng played was the King's famous song, "The Young Man Goes".
Songs could be roughly divided into two categories.
The first was mysterious songs.
Most of these songs contained power and also had the power to kill, such as the "The Wind Blows Over Mount Daqing".
The second was spiritual.
This kind of song contained very few mysteries, but it could resonate with one's mind, causing one's mind to wander around the world and dream back to the past.
King Chixiao's "Youth's Journey" was a spiritual song.
Anyone who knew a thing or two about music would know that this song contained memories of the King's youth.
According to legend, this song was composed by King Chixiao after he got drunk and reminisced about his youth. From his youth, he wandered around the Chiyan Mountains, to the Yunxia School, and then was expelled. He was hunted down by others as an evil spirit. From the Demon Moon Palace, he lived in seclusion until he destroyed his Nascent Soul for Feng Zhuyue.
It could be said that it was very difficult and crazy.
Many people regarded King Chixiao as their idol. There were also many people from ordinary families who often used King Chixiao's achievements to inspire themselves.
Back then, King Chixiao had no parents and was of average aptitude. He worked as a handyman and was expelled by the sect. His cultivation was destroyed several times and he hovered between life and death several times. In the end, he still became the King.
Was there anything crazier than this in the world?
As the saying goes, "If you don't listen to the King's Journey, you'll be a young man in the northwest."
Many people had always wanted to listen to the King's "Youth's Journey". They even wanted to dream back to the ancient times and truly experience the madness of King Chixiao's youth.
Unfortunately, although this Youth's Journey was a spiritual song, it was much more difficult than "The Wind Rises on the Green Mountain".
Many people might be able to play the mystery of "The Wind Blows Over Mount Daqing". Even if it was only a pseudo-mystery of "Thunder Blows Over Mount Daqing", it was still considered a performance.
However, they couldn't even play the complete tune of "Youth's Journey".
This was because the King was only in his early twenties when he composed "The Wind Blows Over Mount Daqing". He was already in his thirties when he composed "The Wind Blows Over Mount Daqing". His musical attainments had already reached the acme of perfection. There were many original songs in "The Wind Blows Over Mount Daqing", and this song had even more.
Throughout the entire northwest, whether it was musical geniuses like Wu Hen and Li Qianhua, or musical grandmasters like Elder Ku Mu, no one could play the King's "Youth's Journey" in its entirety. Perhaps some people could play it, but most of them were reworked versions of "The Youth's Journey". The charm it contained would also change accordingly. It was even more impossible for it to make people dream of the valley and travel spiritually to that era.
However, there was one person who was an exception.
This person was Qing Xi.
Speaking of which, the "Youth's Journey" she played was also a reworked version of "The Youth's Journey". It was said that it was personally reworked by Fairy Su Yan. Although it couldn't compare to the King's "The Youth's Journey", it was at least the reworked version that was closest to the original work on the market. Moreover, the charm it contained was also closer to the original work.
However, a reworked version was still a reworked version. After all, it wasn't the original work. Even if it was reworked by Fairy Su Yan, she might be able to play it with some charm. She might be able to resonate with the spirit and allow people to experience it. However, it was only an experience. Similarly, it couldn't make people dream of the ancient times and travel spiritually to the King's youth.
Even so, there were still many people who wanted to hear Qing Xi play "The King's Journey". Even if it could only resonate with the spirit and vaguely experience the King's youth, everyone would already be very satisfied.
Many people had come to the Five-colored Flower Festival because Qing Xi would play "The Youth's Journey" at the festival.
Unexpectedly, before Miss Qing Xi could play, this Childe Chiyan had already started playing.
Everyone listened attentively. At first, they felt that it was very strange because it was different from what Miss Qing Xi played. It was also different from what other people played.
Most of the "The Youth's Journey" that was circulating on the market had been reworked. Moreover, there were many different versions of it. Many people thought that this Childe Chiyan was also playing a reworked version of "The Youth's Journey". Moreover, it could be a niche version that hadn't entered the market yet.
However, as they listened, some people gradually felt that something wasn't right. They couldn't help but listen attentively.
As soon as they listened, it instantly resonated with the spirit. Their hearts began to undulate and their minds began to relax. Instead, it was as if they were traveling spiritually to heaven and earth, dreaming of the ancient times.
They saw, heard, and deeply experienced the loneliness and suffering of King Chixiao when he was wandering in the Chiyan Mountain Range.
They also saw, heard, and experienced the persistence of King Chixiao when he picked up the Five-colored Flower Petal at the Five-colored Mountain. They could even experience the anger of snatching a Five-colored Flower Petal back then. They could also experience the joy of being saved by Liu Qingyan, the disappointment of not being able to enter the Five-colored Mountain, and the admiration the King had for Liu Qingyan when Liu Qingyan escorted him back.
The stubbornness of entering Yunxia School as a handyman.
The excitement of meeting Hong Xiu for the first time.
The helplessness of being expelled from Yunxia School.
The excitement of forming the true body of fire. The panic of being hunted down. The fear of killing for the first time. The madness of being besieged.
Listening to the song, at this moment, everyone was immersed in the artistic conception of the song. They dreamt of the ancient times and carefully experienced the crazy and hot-blooded years of the King's youth.
