Ye Li picked up the kettle on the table and poured a cup of water for Qin Shang, "This is the spring water from the Azure Sea, have a taste."
Qin Shang took a sip and praised, "It's refreshing and sweet, not bad. You really know how to enjoy it. "
Ye Li sighed, "We haven't seen each other for more than twenty years. You old man, you must have something to do with me by coming to find me. You know that I don't care about the Bamboo Sect anymore. Even if there's anything, it has nothing to do with me. "
Qin Shang laughed, "I haven't even said anything and you've already pushed all the blame away. Why do you think I'm looking for you? This time, I'm not leaving. "
Ye Li's eyes showed a hint of surprise, "Not leaving?"
Qin Shang nodded, "I just returned from Faran."
Upon hearing Fa Lan's name, the look in Ye Li's eyes changed instantly. The expression on his face darkened. "You still went. That means you've reached the Purple Level? "
Qin Shang squinted his eyes and looked at Ye Li, "Aren't you the same? Let me see. "
Ye Li glared at him, a layer of faint purple aura floated out of his body, it was a proud aura, a stubborn energy. The huge pressure made Qin Shang's eyes shine, "Good, Level 1, you're also Level 1. Looks like we didn't leave each other behind."
Ye Li said, "I'm no longer your opponent. In the same level, there's no magic or fighting aura that can defeat your zither magic. You think I don't know that? "
Qin Shang smiled, "My zither can only show its true power after playing more than a third of it. In the same level, if you can't beat me, can't you run? I can't do anything to you? Don't tell me you want me to chase after you? "
Ye Li said fiercely, "At this distance, believe it or not, I can kill you in one hit."
Qin Shang leisurely drank another mouthful of spring water, "I don't believe it."
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh. Whether it was Qin Shang or Ye Li, they hadn't been this happy in a long time.
After the laughter died down, Ye Li said in a serious tone, "Old friend, tell me honestly, how do you feel about Faran?"
Qin Shang's expression darkened. He sighed and said, "You don't have to ask anymore. Faran's Seven Pagodas is not something we can imagine. When I cleared the Fantasy Pagoda, I didn't even see the Pagoda Master. "
After listening to his words, Ye Li was silent for a long time before he said sadly, "It seems that we will never have hope."
"No."
Qin Shang's eyes lit up as if he had thought of something exciting. He stood up from the bamboo chair and said, "There is definitely hope. Furthermore, it's right in front of us. "
Ye Li's eyes burned with passion. "What is it? Tell me quickly. Do we really have a chance against Faran's Seven Pagodas? "
Qin Shang smiled and sat down again, but he did not say anything.
Ye Li said somewhat impatiently, "Why are you keeping me in suspense? Hurry up and tell me. Otherwise, I will use force."
Qin Shang smiled and said, "Your temper is still the same as before. You are still so impatient. I really wonder how you managed to train your Bamboo Battle Energy to this level. After I took the test in Faran, I was confirmed as a Purple Level and entered the Faran's Rainbow List. Before I left, Faran's people asked me where I would like to work. I chose Arcadia. I'm here because you're here. As long as you agree, I can stay here for at least ten years. "
Ye Li's expression changed. He said with some doubt, "Old friend, why do I feel that you are setting a trap for me to jump into? If you have something to say, just say it. What is our hope? "
Qin Shang nodded and said, "Alright, I will say it directly. Our only hope is your grandson. "
Ye Li was shocked. "Are you sure? You came back with Ying 'er. Did you not see that my grandson was born with only eight fingers? From now on, it will be difficult for him to even hold a weapon tightly. How can he be our hope? I just want this child to live a peaceful life. "
Qin Shang curled his lips and said, "That is from your point of view. From my point of view, it is completely different. Born with eight fingers, he is the disciple that I have been dreaming of. Without the influence of the Forbidden Finger on his left and right hand, it will be very beneficial for him to cultivate the zither. Furthermore, your grandson was born with a very keen sense of music. As long as you are willing to let him learn the zither from me, he will be our future hope. Let me be honest with you. I chose to come to Arcadia and not the other strong countries because you are here. You also know that when our cultivation reaches the Purple Level, it becomes extremely difficult to improve further. Furthermore, as a Divine Musician, although we can use powerful zither magic when we cultivate to the Purple Level, there is also a huge drawback. So, I thought of a good way to solve this problem. And I need you to cooperate with me. "
Ye Li frowned and said, "Me? I practice the Bamboo Battle Energy, how can I cooperate with you? "
Qin Shang said, "In Longqinus, there is only a precedent of combining magic with Battle Energy, which is the so-called dual cultivation of magic and martial arts. However, no one has been able to surpass the Blue Level. Nowadays, sorcerers are even more disdainful of cultivating Battle Energy. But the method I thought of is to use Battle Energy to promote zither magic, using Battle Energy to increase the range of the sound waves, or even directly using the sound waves to attack. Only Divine Musicians have the possibility of doing this. As for your bamboo battle qi, it is filled with the aura of nature. It is the battle qi that is most compatible with zither music. I came here this time because I wanted to accept a disciple and then convince you to teach him bamboo battle qi. Combining the strengths of our two schools, we can create a super divine tunist. Who knows, he might be able to break through the limits of the purple level. But just as I arrived here, before I could settle down and find a disciple, I saw your daughter-in-law and grandson. Born with eight fingers! It is hard to find in this world, I will not let such a good opportunity go. Old friend, I have never begged anyone in my life, but this time, I will make an exception. I beg you, let your grandson be my disciple. "
As he spoke, Qin Shang stood up and bowed deeply to Ye Li. His expression was extremely solemn.
Ye Li stepped aside and said resolutely, "No, I will not agree. I only have this one grandson. Although he was born with eight fingers, I still hope that he will inherit my legacy. "
Qin Shang hurriedly said, "Didn't you just say that you want him to be an ordinary person? Why are you changing your mind now? "
Ye Li said, "An ordinary person refers to the ordinary people of the Bamboo Faction. My grandson will be the future Bamboo Faction Leader. If he is kidnapped by you to the Zither Faction, what will happen to the Bamboo Faction? No way, no way."
Qin Shang said unwillingly, "Ye Chong and Mei Ying are still young. Are you afraid that you will not have a grandson in the future? Born with eight fingers, there might not even be one in a million people. Old friend, for the sake of our many years of friendship, please grant my wish. "
Ye Li laughed bitterly and said, "It is not that I do not want to become an adult, but I really cannot grant your wish. It is true that Zhong 'er and Ying' er are still young, but they can only have one son in their lifetime. When Ying 'er gave birth to my precious grandson, she had a difficult labor. You should have noticed that Ying' er is the daughter of Old Plum Blossom of the Plum Faction. Old Plum Blossom and I invited Old Granny Lan Ching to personally deliver her. Fortunately, Lan Ching was there to ensure the safety of both mother and child. However, Lan Ching also said that Ying 'er will not be able to have another child in the future. If you don't believe me, you can ask around in the Orchid Faction. "
Hearing Ye Li's words, Qin Shang could not help but slump back into his bamboo chair. The feeling of having his hopes dashed was definitely not a good one. For a long time, neither he nor Ye Li spoke. Both of them were deep in thought. Just then, a clear voice came from outside the door. "Father, I heard that there is a guest."
A tall figure walked in from outside the door. It was a young man with a tall stature and an imposing appearance. He was at least eighty percent similar to Ye Li. His appearance was handsome and resolute. As soon as he walked in, he gave off a refreshing aura. This was the unique characteristic of the Bamboo School's Bamboo Dou Qi. It was Ye Li's son, Ye Chong.
Ye Li said, "Zhong 'er, greetings to your Uncle Qin."
"Hello, Uncle Qin. I heard from Ying 'er that you seem to be here for my son? "
Ye Chong asked after bowing.
Qin Shang's eyes flashed a little as he smiled and said, "Zhong 'er, I saw you when you were young. Not bad, your bamboo fighting spirit has reached the first level of Yellow Bamboo right? It is equivalent to the first level of Green Level in the rainbow level. "
Ye Chong was obviously not interested in the question of his own strength. He said hurriedly, "I heard from Ying 'er that you think my son is a genius, a genius in zither sorcery. Is that right? If it's possible, could you please accept him as your disciple? "
Qin Shang's eyes flashed. Before Ye Li could speak, he quickly said, "Of course it's possible, but your father does not agree."
Ye Chong looked at Ye Li and asked in confusion, "Father, why?"
Ye Li said angrily, "Get out, you have no right to speak here. Why do you ask? You only have one child, if he learns from the Qin Sect, what will happen to the Bamboo Sect? "
Ye Chong protested, "But he was born with eight fingers, he is not suitable to inherit the Bamboo Sect's swordsmanship. Don't you want your grandson to become strong in the future? He cannot learn from the Bamboo Sect, isn't it better for him to learn from the Qin Sect? This is a typical case of sectarian bias. Didn't you say … "
"Get out."
Ye Li was furious. He raised his hand and threw a punch at his son. Ye Chong did not dare to fight back. Bang! He was hit by a ball of purple light. With a strange look in his eyes, he was sent flying out of the bamboo door. Of course, Ye Li seemed to have hit him hard, but he was only using his fighting spirit to push his son out. Which father could bear to hit his own son?
Qin Shang looked at the angry Ye Li and said, "You see, you are not as reasonable as your son. Old Bamboo, I thought about it just now. How about this? Let your grandson learn zither sorcery from me, and at the same time learn the Bamboo Sect's fighting spirit. In the future, he will still be a member of the Bamboo Sect, and will have nothing to do with the Qin Sect. What do you think? "
Ye Li's expression softened a little. "Why should I believe that you can train my grandson to be strong enough to fight against Faran's Seven Towers?"
Qin Shang said seriously, "Right now, on Longqinus, both sorcery and fighting spirit are arranged according to the seven colors of the rainbow. We, the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools, are an exception. Whether it is us, the Four Schools of Sorcery, or the Four Schools of Fighting Spirit, in the process of training, there are only three colors. Each color is a Level 9, and added together, it is the same as the seven colors of the rainbow. Especially the last color, which is Level 9 Purple. Hence, we must train to the Purple level to prevent the outside world from discovering the secret of our Eastern Dragon Eight Schools. However, without more than 50 years of hard work, without extraordinary talent, it is not easy to train to the Purple level. The people on Longqinus only know of the existence of Faran. Who would know of our Eastern Dragon Eight Schools? "
Ye Li snorted and said, "You are talking nonsense. Do you think I don't know?"
Qin Shang said, "Then tell me, what are the nine levels of our Zither Sect's three colors?"
Ye Li said, "Isn't it the red Zither Heart of Soul Refinement, the yellow Zither Heart of Sword Gall, and the purple Zither Heart of Zither Star? Right now, you are at the beginner level of Zither Star. It is similar to our Bamboo Sect's Green Bamboo, Yellow Bamboo, and Purple Bamboo, the three major 27 level techniques. It is just that our first level is green. When we go out and scare people, it is more useful than your Zither Sect. "
Qin Shang nodded and said, "That's right, it is these 27 levels. The progress of each level is exactly the same as the 27 levels of the rainbow. The cultivation of the nine levels of Zither Heart of Soul Refinement is the most important to our Zither Sect. To learn the zither, one must first cultivate the soul, dispel the distracting thoughts in one's mind, let the Instrumental Sound enter the mind, and gradually increase the understanding of the Instrumental Sound and the strength of the zither. This is the orthodox cultivation method of the Zither Sect. As long as one's talent is normal, they can complete the cultivation of the nine levels of Zither Heart of Soul Refinement in about six years. However, the foundation of the Zither Heart of Soul Refinement makes it difficult to improve in the future. How can Soul Refinement compare to the pure Zither Spirit? "
Ye Li said doubtfully, "I don't quite understand what you mean."
Qin Shang's eyes flashed with determination. "If you are willing to let your grandson worship me, then I will let him start cultivating the Zither Heart of Soul Refinement, the Zither Heart of Innocence that no one has ever cultivated before."
"Ah?"
Ye Li looked at Qin Shang in shock. "Is this the cultivation method recorded in your Zither Sect's mysterious secret manual that no one has ever successfully cultivated? Are you crazy? "
Qin Shang said seriously, "I am not crazy. Actually, the Zither Heart of Innocence is the true cultivation method of the Zither Sect. However, because it has too many requirements and is too difficult to cultivate, no one has ever successfully cultivated it. However, your grandson is different. He was born with eight fingers and is naturally sensitive to music. I believe that he will definitely succeed. With me, a Purple Tier, there is at least a seventy percent chance of success. The Zither Heart of Innocence is much more difficult to cultivate than the Zither Heart of Soul Refinement. However, once he succeeds, he will truly open the door to cultivating the Zither Heart of Zither. He can even reach the level of the Zither Heart of Zither in a short period of time. As long as he works hard, it is not impossible to raise it to the legendary Zither Heart of Taixuan. Together with the Qi support method that I have researched, the Faran's Seven Pagodas will no longer be scary. "
Ye Li said in a low voice, "What if you fail?"
Qin Shang said calmly, "Even if he fails, he has been cultivating the fighting energy of your Bamboo Sect. You can ask him to give up on zither cultivation and change to martial arts of your Bamboo Sect. The Zither Heart of Innocence does not involve itself with external things. If I am not wrong, when he cultivates the Zither Heart of Innocence, his speed of cultivation will be very fast. It will be enough to make up for the late cultivation of martial arts techniques. Old friend, for us Eastern Dragon Eight Schools, this kind of opportunity may not even come once in a hundred years. Are you really not willing to give it a try? As long as you agree, I am willing to exchange anything from the Zither Sect. "
The Violet Light in Ye Li's eyes flickered. He waved his hand and said, "There is no need to exchange anything. I can agree to it, but you have to agree to three conditions. "
Qin Shang said without hesitation, "Alright, speak."
Ye Li said, "First of all, if it succeeds, then when my grandson grows up, he will be the master of both the Zither Sect and the Bamboo Sect."
Qin Shang nodded and said, "This is not a problem. As long as he has enough strength, no one will be able to oppose him. Moreover, this was decided by the two of us. "
Ye Li said, "Secondly, if it succeeds, your Zither Sect's Five Famed Zithers will belong to my grandson."
Qin Shang widened his eyes and looked at Ye Li. "You old man, you are not greedy at all. Do you know how important the Zither Sect's Five Famed Zithers are? The Zither Sect's Five Famed Zithers are like the magic staffs in the hands of the Faran's Seven Pagodas. They are existences comparable to God Weapons. "
Ye Li said lazily, "If that was not the case, I would not want them. Don't tell me our Bamboo Sect doesn't have any treasures? Only these five zithers are worthy of my attention in your Zither Sect. In any case, my grandson will be the future Sect Leader of your Zither Sect. Why are you still being stingy? The Phoenix Song Zither, the Withered Wood Dragon Song Zither, the Great Saint's Heritage Sound Zither, the Nine Heavens Hoop Zither, and the Spring Thunder Zither that you often use. Not bad, I guess. Didn't you tell me before? If you want to play a song, you must use a matching zither. The higher the compatibility between the zither and the song, the more powerful the zither magic will be. Don't tell me you've forgotten. "
"Extortion, this is blatant extortion."
Qin Shang said angrily.
Ye Li chuckled and asked, "So, are you going to agree or not?"
Qin Shang glared at Ye Li, then nodded helplessly. He gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, I'll agree to it."
With his hands behind his back, Ye Li smiled and said, "The last condition is much simpler. Call me Uncle. "
Qin Shang was stunned. "You …"
Ye Li smiled and said, "Did I say anything wrong? Since you are my grandson's Master, you are naturally one generation younger than me. There is nothing wrong with calling me Uncle. "
"Alright, old thing, you're messing with me."
Qin Shang fiercely pounced on Ye Li, not caring that his opponent was a Purple Tiered Warrior.
Ye Li also didn't use his Dou Qi or martial techniques. The two Purple Tier experts, who were over sixty years old, actually wrestled with each other in the bamboo house, neither giving way to the other. Fortunately, there weren't many things in the bamboo house, so it wasn't a complete mess.
Qin Shang was, after all, a sorcerer. Even in terms of physical strength, he was far from Ye Li's. When he was once again pressed to the ground by Ye Li, he flew into a rage out of humiliation and said, "I'm not fighting anymore. I'm exhausted."
Ye Li let go of Qin Shang and sat beside him. Seeing him gasping for breath, the smile on his face became even wider.
"Elder Qin, give my grandson a name. This kid has just turned one month old and doesn't have a name yet. "
Qin Shang knew that Ye Li had finally agreed to his request. An idea flashed in his mind and he said, "Let's call him Ye Yinzhu. He'll inherit my music and your bamboos. "
Ye Li laughed. "Alright, Ye Yinzhu it shall be."
Qin Shang suddenly grabbed Ye Li's beard and said fiercely, "Did you agree to my request from the start?"
Ye Li nodded unabashedly and said, "Yes!"
Qin Shang said angrily, "Then why did you make things difficult for me just now?"
Ye Li snorted and said, "Who asked you to come to me and beg me? Ye Chong, that stupid kid, doesn't even know how to maximize his benefits. I was the one who said that we shouldn't have sectarian bias. If I hadn't thrown him out in time, he would have exposed me. How could I have maximized my benefits then? Not bad, not bad. You've created a precedent for the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools. Hahahaha. "
"You …"
Seeing Ye Li's smug look, Qin Shang finally understood that he had been tricked. However, he could not do anything about it.
"Elder Zhu, I've agreed to your conditions. Since you've agreed to let me be your grandson's master, then you have to agree to a few of my conditions."
Ye Li laughed and said, "Why? You want to get it back so soon? "
Qin Shang said angrily, "Do you think I'm like you? I'm doing this for Yinzhu's own good. Of course, you're not allowed to mention that I'm one generation younger than you anymore. We'll talk about it separately. "
Ye Li saw that Qin Shang had become serious and nodded. "Go ahead."
Qin Shang said, "The Pure Heart of the Zither is extremely difficult to cultivate. If you want to succeed, you must let Yinzhu maintain a pure heart. In other words, you must not let him come into contact with the outside world as much as possible. Even you must try to have as little contact as possible. Other than the Bamboo Fighting Energy, you are not allowed to teach him any martial arts techniques without my permission. After he turns three, you can only see him once a week. You are not allowed to tell him anything about the outside world. Only a pure heart without distractions can cultivate the Pure Heart of the Zither. "
Ye Li said, "He can't learn martial arts techniques forever? If he doesn't know the Bamboo Sect's martial arts techniques, how can he be the Bamboo Sect Leader in the future? "
Qin Shang thought about it and said, "It's not forever. Don't teach him any other martial arts techniques for at least fifteen years to avoid distractions. If he can't reach the ninth rank of the Pure Heart of the Zither within fifteen years, I'm afraid I'll fail. "
Ye Li said happily, "Alright, I promise you. How about this? Aren't you worried about seniority? To the outside world, you're his master. When we're around, let Yinzhu call you grandpa. "
Qin Shang glanced at Ye Li. "At least you're sincere."
The two old men, who were powerful but had never run amok on Longqinus, looked at each other. They saw a glimmer of hope in each other's eyes. It was hope for Ye Yinzhu's future, and for the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools …
Qin Shang returned to Luna City and made some simple arrangements. The next morning, he returned to Azure Sea. This newly appointed Guild Leader of the Sorcerer's Guild obviously did not care about Arcadia's Guild of Sorcerer. To him, there was nothing more important than teaching his talented disciple who was born with eight fingers.
Ye Li may be the Bamboo Sect Leader, but only his family lived on Azure Sea. Ye Li's wife had passed away, and there were only him, his son, his daughter-in-law, and his grandson. Now that Qin Shang was here, there was one more person. There were many bamboo houses, but Qin Shang refused to live with them. At his request, Ye Chong built another house 500 meters away from where they lived. For a Green Level Earth Warrior like him, this was a piece of cake.
On the Dragon Qinus Continent, Warriors were divided into seven ranks just like Magicians, corresponding to the seven colors of the rainbow: Warrior, Intermediate Warrior, Advanced Warrior, Earth Warrior, Sky Warrior, Combat Master, and Great Combat Master. While the Bamboo Sect trained in a unique color of Combat Qi, Ye Chong had just entered Yellow Bamboo, which was equivalent to Green Level in the rainbow. Naturally, he was an Earth Warrior.
The bamboo house was simple, but Qin Shang had strict requirements, including the angle of the bamboo and the size of the house. He even bought some special materials from Luna City. It was only later that Ye Chong realized the reason why Qin Shang built the house so strictly was so that the Instrumental Sound could produce the best surround sound effect in the house.
10 days passed, and with Ye Chong's hard work, the bamboo house was finally built.
"Are you crazy? Yinzhu is only one month old, what can she learn now?"
Ye Li stared at Qin Shang with widened eyes. He had no idea what this old man was thinking.
Qin Shang put his hands behind his back and looked at his old friend with a look of disdain. "Who said babies can't learn? Even if they can't learn, can't they just listen? Do you think it's easy to train the Pure Heart of the Zither? How can you succeed if you don't start from a young age, before he loses his Connate Qi? "
Ye Li shook his head. "No, no. Do you think I don't know the power of your Instrumental Sound? If my grandson is hurt by the psychic magic attached to your Instrumental Sound, I'm afraid he will become an idiot. "
Qin Shang said impatiently, "I think you're the idiot. Do you think I care less about Yinzhu than you? He's my biggest hope in this life. Even if I hurt myself, I can't hurt him. Before he is three years old, he can't learn combat qi from you, and before he is five, he can't learn the zither from me. However, this period is the most important. I want to use my Instrumental Sound to let him learn the Pure Heart of the Zither by listening every day. The child still needs to be taken care of, so let Ye Chong and Mei Ying listen together. On the one hand, they can take care of the child, on the other hand, it will be good for their combat qi practice. "
Ye Li's eyes showed a hint of slyness, and he kicked his son. "Hurry up and thank your Uncle Qin. Not everyone can listen to the Origin Cultivation Meditation Song of the Zither Sect. "
Since Qin Shang was set up by Ye Li that day, Ye Chong can be said to admire his father. He smiled and quickly pulled Mei Ying, who was holding Ye Yinzhu, forward to thank him.
Qin Shang was stunned. He realized that he had been fooled again, but he couldn't do anything to Ye Li. He pointed to him and said, "So you guessed that I was going to use the Origin Cultivation Meditation Song, you! You! Now I finally understand what it means to be cunning. "
The Origin Cultivation Meditation Song is of great benefit to martial artists. There is no need to worry about the speed of combat qi operation causing Qi deviation and the elimination of distracting thoughts in the heart. It is the dream of any martial artist. What's more, the Instrumental Sound stimulates the elemental aura between heaven and earth. The effect of consolidating the origin of the listener can greatly improve the cultivation speed of the martial artist. As the leader of the Zither Sect, not everyone can hear the Origin Cultivation Meditation Song played by Qin Shang.
In this way, Qin Shang, the new president of the Acadia Magician's Guild, lived in the Blue Sky Sea. And our little Yinzhu, also slowly grew up in the sound of nature, like the spring breeze shaking leaves, autumn water rinsing stones …
Six years later.
When the first ray of sunlight shone into the bamboo house, accompanied by a low and soft Instrumental Sound, Ye Yinzhu slowly woke up from the state of meditation, and the penetrating comfort of his whole body made him moan.
The six-year-old Ye Yinzhu was as handsome as a girl. His black hair was draped over his back, and his big black eyes were bright and full of expression. Although the white robe he was wearing looked a little fat, it did not affect his temperament of being the most outstanding person in the world. Between his hands and feet, he exudes elegance. Even an adult nobleman may not be able to match him. Although he was still a child, he sat there with a calm expression on his face. That calm and unhurried expression was really frightening. The layer of faint greenish-red airflow around his body gradually disappeared. The greenish-red light was clearly a little more intense, but the color of the red light was a little deeper.
When the sound of the zither stopped, Qin Shang retracted his hands. Between his expression, there was a slight increase of exhaustion. "Yinzhu, your dou qi seems to have improved again."
"Yes! Grandpa Qin, when Grandpa came to see me yesterday, he said that I seem to have entered the third stage of Green Bamboo. "
Little Yinzhu jumped up from the ground excitedly, his face full of childishness and innocence, ran to Qin Shang, and begged: "Grandpa Qin, should you teach me a new song today? I have been learning from you for a year, and you have only taught me one song."
Qin Shang smiled faintly and said, "It's not time yet. Yinzhu, you have to understand that there is no use in learning more songs. Only when you truly comprehend the mysteries of the Zither Heart can you continue to improve."
Six years have passed, and Qin Shang has poured all his efforts into Ye Yinzhu. Every day, at least half of his time is spent by Ye Yinzhu's side playing the zither for him. Under the nourishment of the Instrumental Sound, Ye Yinzhu's elegant and delicate temperament became more and more obvious. Since the age of three, Ye Yinzhu has followed his biological grandfather Ye Li to practice bamboo dou qi. Ye Li has been practicing for a year, using his own huge dou qi to help his grandson clear his meridians, so Ye Yinzhu can easily find the trick in the early stages of practice. Since the age of five, Qin Shang has officially taught him the mystery of zither magic. Until now, it has been a year. But in this year, Qin Shang has only taught Ye Yinzhu the most basic fingering method of playing the zither, which is the simplest song, "Green Water".
Ye Yinzhu said unhappily: "But I have already learned it!"
Qin Shang smiled lightly and said: "Have you really learned it? Well then, come with me. "
After stretching his body, Qin Shang carried the zither Spring Thunder and walked out of the bamboo house with Ye Yinzhu.
Ye Li's family kept their promise. Ever since Yinzhu started learning from Qin Shang, they only came to see Yinzhu once a month. Of course, they could not avoid peeping from the side.
After leaving the bamboo house, there was a large bamboo forest. Qin Shang stopped and said: "Yinzhu, what are the three sounds of the zither and what they mean?"
Ye Yinzhu was obviously used to being tested by Qin Shang. Without hesitation, she said: "The three sounds are loose notes, pressed notes, and overtones. Loose notes are the sound produced by the right hand plucking the strings. The sound is deep and wide. Pressed notes are the left hand pressing the strings on the zither and the right hand plucking the strings. The sound is soft and mellow. Overtones are the left hand lightly tapping the strings and the right hand plucking the strings at the same time. The sound is clear and crystal clear. The three sounds are mixed together to form a zither song. "
Qin Shang nodded and said, "That's right. Playing the zither is the most difficult out of all the leaps. Just the most basic overtones, under the effects of the seven strings and thirteen emblems, there are as many as ninety-one types. In addition to the combination of scattered notes and pressed notes, there are countless combinations and wonders. If you don't practice the basics well, how can you achieve anything in the future? "
Yinzhu nodded obediently and said: "Grandpa Qin, I know I was wrong. I'll continue practicing the basics."
Qin Shang smiled. Although he was criticizing Yinzhu, he was very satisfied with this disciple. Although Ye Yinzhu had only learned the Instrumental Sound from him for a year, he had grown up in the five years since he was a month old. His familiarity with the Instrumental Sound was not inferior to his own. Furthermore, his talent for learning the zither was unprecedented. At such a young age, he had already mastered three of the sounds. He was definitely a genius among geniuses.
Qin Shang handed the Spring Thunder Zither in his hands to Ye Yinzhu and let him sit in front of a bamboo table in the bamboo forest. He said: "How about this? If you can use 'Green Water' to attract all the animals in the forest to gather around you and treat you as their closest friend, I will teach you a new song. Alright, you can start practicing. I'll go get breakfast for you. "
Ye Yinzhu nodded and placed the Spring Thunder Zither on the bamboo table in front of him. He sat up straight. When his eight fingers touched the strings, his aura changed again. Although the innocence on his face was still there, there was an additional calmness and elegance that did not match his age. His eight fingers moved, and the song 'Green Water' was played.
The sound of the guqin was pleasant to listen to, but Qin Shang frowned at the side. "The heart and mind are one, and the mind and the guqin are one. If you cannot resonate with the music, then your guqin will never be able to stir the minds of any living beings."
Ye Yinzhu raised his head and looked at Qin Shang. His hands did not stop moving, but he quickly closed his eyes. A faint smile appeared on his beautiful little face. Although the Instrumental Sound was still 'Green Water', there was a slight change in his aura. It was as if his entire body was immersed in the green mountains and clear waters. A faint red light was released from his body and floated to the surroundings.
Seeing this, Qin Shang nodded in satisfaction. He sighed in his heart. Ye Li! You only know that our Zither Sect's zither magic is one of the most powerful types of magic, but you don't know that spiritual magic, especially divine musicians like us, is extremely difficult to cultivate. It's something you can't even begin to imagine.
