Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 178: Live for me today


Chapter 178 Live for me today

The sound of "bumping" strings plucked sounded in the house.

Zhao Changhe really sat there playing the piano seriously.

Bao Qin stood aside fearfully, looking at her posture as if she wanted to pounce at any time to save her baby Qin. As long as the bear showed any signs of violence, he was guaranteed to be pushed three feet away by Bao Qin.

However, what is very strange is that the strings were broken by a careless move last time and he has not practiced any more in the past few days, but this time his posture as he sat there was inexplicably softer and no longer so tense. Hard and calm.

So I touched the strings. Although it looked dull, I could actually play it.

Nothing else, just because it was not the strings that were tightened at that time, but himself. Otherwise, how could a warrior who could use a broad sword to shave his beard control his power and break the string casually?

These days, my body and mind have slowed down, that's all.

It’s just that he has never learned a single piece of music. Now he is following the notes that Tang Wanzhuang demonstrated that day for each string. Gong Shangjiao Zhengyu plucks them one by one and then back again. It is extremely boring. .

But it seems that every beginner starts like this. Baoqin thought of the time when he was five years old, forget it.

Boring was boring, but Tang Wanzhuang leaned on the bedside and looked at it with slightly bent eyes, looking like she was listening to it. After listening for a while, she actually closed her eyes and fell asleep, and rested comfortably.

Bao Qin’s eyes were filled with circles. He couldn’t find anything pleasant about this repetitive and boring tone, and it didn’t even have a sense of rhythm. It’s good if you don’t feel irritated after listening to it. Miss, you can really relax after listening to it?

Zhao Changhe played blindly for a few minutes, and he became impatient with the playing. He just wanted to make a living without any trouble, and began to figure out how to play simple tunes.

The so-called simple tune, the first thing that came to Zhao Changhe's mind was that of little stars shining brightly. He tried to pluck it with one finger, and the melody actually came out. Zhao Changhe grinned unconsciously with joy. It was quite fun. ah!

As a result, the next sentence got stuck, and the sound of "fa" seemed to be nowhere to be found... Helplessly, I asked Baoqin for help: "Hey..."

"I don't call you hello, I call you Baoqin. No, you can't call me, you have to call me girl."

"Oh, hold the girl..."

Baoqin glared angrily: "My surname is not Bao!"

"Shh!" Zhao Changhe whispered: "Your lady is resting, don't be loud, be good."

Bao Qin lowered his voice: "What are you doing?"

"I'm going to hum a piece. Can you tell me where the sound is?" Zhao Changhe hummed the melody of Little Stars in the Sky: "Where are the first two sounds?"

"It's so unpleasant. Why do you hum a tune that sounds like a pig's roar?"

Zhao Changhe rubbed his fists, held the piano in front of him, and took half a step back.

"That's the Bianzheng Qingjiao sound. You need to use your left hand to pick up the strings and change the tune. You can't play it with one hand and one finger." Tang Wanzhuang's long and leisurely voice came from the bedside: "Hold the piano and show him. ."

Bao Qin reluctantly reached over his little hand, pressed it with his left hand and plucked it with his right hand, and the sound was correct.

Tang Wanzhuang closed her eyes and said softly: "This is not a multitasking technique. What is required is the coordination of both hands. It is difficult for normal beginners, but it should be easy for a warrior, especially someone like you." While he's cutting people with his right hand, he's holding a slingshot in his left hand..."

Zhao Changhe: "..."

Do you know it well? Have you ever piled up a lot of investigative reports?

Tang Wanzhuang smiled slightly and said: "Okay, let's try it. I hope to finish listening to this piece of music today."

Bao Qin said: "He should be just a nursery rhyme, right? Miss? What is there to look forward to..."

"What's wrong with just children's songs? I just want to listen to children's songs." Tang Wanzhuang's voice became softer and softer: "Even my mother never played children's songs for me..."

Hold the piano in silence.

Zhao Changhe didn't say anything. He just learned the **** technique he used to hold the piano to find the key. After fiddling around for a while, he finally found the right key and continued to play.

After finishing playing the song Little Star, I looked up at Tang Wanzhuang leaning on the bed. Her tense brows gradually relaxed, and her whole expression relaxed a lot, and she actually seemed to have fallen asleep. ……

Zhao Changhe didn't dare to play anymore, he shouted "hiss" at Baoqin again, and quietly left the room.

Bao Qin hesitated for a moment, then quietly chased after him, and stopped him at the door: "Um, is there anything special about your song? I have played many songs for the lady to calm the mind and help sleep, but none of them have this effect. ...You play these simple tunes so badly..."

"Can you speak?"

"...Don't let others tell the truth?"

"Why are you asking this? Do you want to help your lady?"

"Yes..."

"That's probably impossible." Zhao Changhe sighed: "She felt much more at peace just because she saw me following the direction in her heart... She had nothing to do about other worries, and they were illusory. She didn't know when they would be resolved. The end, and I became something concrete to look forward to, a straw, nothing more.”

"Then...then why does she like children's songs? It doesn't matter if no one plays them to her. I have played them when I was practicing piano."

"It's not that she hasn't heard children's songs, it's just that no one has played children's songs for her. In people's hearts, Tang Wanzhuang is unrivaled. Even if they feel sorry for her illness and fatigue and ask her to take care of herself, does anyone think, silly child, this is not you? I will do it? No, what everyone hopes is that she will take good care of herself and be able to better support the world."

Bao Qin was dumbfounded and didn’t know what to do.

"It's a pity that I only said the first half of the sentence, and I couldn't say the word 'I'm coming'." Zhao Changhe patted Baoqin on the shoulder, turned and left: "Take good care of your young lady. , don’t catch a cold, ah.”

…………

Back in his guest house, Zhao Changhe took a long bath, took out the gold foil and sword seal again and began to study.

After the promise to Sisi was completed, it was time to start his own research.

What was given to Sisi was the sword technique that can be used to unlock the first secret level. Zhao Changhe could recite the key points and simulate the movements, but in fact it was just a showmanship and the real power could not be used. In other words, he was not familiar with the sword technique. The understanding goes as far as the entrance, and beyond that it goes beyond the scope.

In fact, although the swordsmanship at the Xuanguan level can be understood, it is not strong enough to display. I have a unique move in the Xuesha Swordsmanship that can be used at the eighth level of the Xuanguan level. I still can't use it, and the swordsmanship is even more meaningless.

So the goal right now is very clear. Find a few special skills that you can use to maximize your power and try to integrate them into your sword skills.

Although the left sword and right sword are handsome, they are really inconvenient. It is better to focus on sword skills...

At this time, the Book of Heaven has also evolved and seems to be unblocked more.

Not only can it form a phantom-like space in which you can watch the Sword King preach immersively, but you can also control this phantom space to display the content you want to display, just like a lucid dream. For example, at this moment, you can only If you want the Sword Emperor to show you all the secret techniques that can be used between the fifth and seventh levels of the Mysterious Entrance, the Sword Emperor will only show you this part of the secret techniques for you to choose from.

--If the Book of Heaven is becoming more and more spiritual, how do you plan to kill yourself when the lockdown is completely lifted in the future?

Forget it, we’ll talk about it later. I have too many sword skills to think about anything else.

There are too many unique sword moves demonstrated by the Sword Emperor in the fifth to seventh levels of the entrance.

What Sisi was given was only a direction of sword intention and a set of branches of swordsmanship. As the "general outline of swordsmanship", the sword seal could embody more than just such a category? There are all kinds of sword intentions and countless methods, which are things that need to be understood throughout a lifetime. There are at least a hundred types of swordsmanship derived from this level alone, and there are hundreds of moves that can be called unique skills.

Most of them are not suitable for changing sword techniques, and some of them are not suitable for Zhao Changhe's style. After sifting through them, there are about a dozen moves to choose from.

After filtering out some relatively repetitive moves, Zhao Changhe finally selected three moves.

All the next thoughts will be on how to integrate these three sword skills into sword skills. When the day of success is achieved, when will we leave?

As soon as the idea came to his mind, Zhao Changhe patted his head.

Why did I start this kind of brain circuit again? Slow down, calm down... I just want to stop myself from being like this, as if I have to rush to finish one thing.

There is nothing that you need to do in a hurry. Precipitation is the last word.

"Knock knock knock~" There was a knock on the door.

Zhao Changhe mentally withdrew from the Book of Heaven, only to realize that just choosing moves took him a whole night, and it was already dawn.

When I opened the door, I saw Tang Wanzhuang standing there, smiling slightly: "There is no need to write music now, do you still welcome Wanzhuang to visit?"

"Are you okay?"

"As long as you have enough rest, it will be good. It has been a long time since I slept as peacefully as last night. Thank you for the children's song."

"So you have to slow down too, and you are not going to deal with the Maitreya Cult today?"

"Let's forget about it for today. You should live for yourself for a day?"

"Then I want to make a scene..." Zhao Changhe said: "How about living for me today?"

Tang Wanzhuang: "?"

Zhao Changhe didn’t blush, and said very naturally: "I have mastered three sword techniques, and I am thinking about how to integrate them into the sword technique. You are a great master, can you help me refer to it?"

Tang Wanzhuang smiled: "It's true."
