Chapter 247 Chapter 217 The Realm of Pretentiousness

Above Loulan Lake, there is a vast mist.The surface of the water is as bright and soft as satin. If you sail on the lake, if you look down, the lake is emerald green, directly reaching the depths of your heart, but it is still transparent, like a piece of emerald. In the entire Desa province, only in Loulan Lake can you see such a little bit of charming green.Populus euphratica trees above the lake, shallow shrubs and grasses on the ground.Only here, wind and sand are rarely seen all year round, and even the wind does not hurt the face like a knife cut like other places in the northwest. It is obviously the northwest wilderness, but here it seems to reveal a bit of the atmosphere of the southern water town.This Loulan Lake is a rare freshwater lake. The water in the lake is sweet and clear, and there are abundant fish, which feed the fishermen in several small villages around the lake.

However, a few days ago, His Excellency the Duke ordered that boats be banned on Loulan Lake for a month.At this moment, the huge Loulan Lake stretches as far as the eye can see, but there is not a single boat.The scene of "sunset pieces, boat shadows" in the past is no longer visible. At this moment, under the setting sun, the sunset glow is like a fire, and the fire cloud in the sky seems to be boiling in the sky.The sky in the northwest, especially when there is no wind and sand in winter and spring, is extraordinarily blue. It is so blue that people can't help but admire it.

Against the backdrop of the blue sky, red clouds, and clear water, Du Wei stood alone on the lake. Under his feet is a circular ice plate about five meters long.Floating on the surface of the lake, it is like a jade plate. This was obtained by Du Wei using ice magic to fetch water and freeze it, which happened to allow people to have such a small foothold above the center of the lake. With Du Wei's current magical strength, although his magical power is still slightly insufficient, he is above the control of magic, because he has obtained the results of lifelong research of a large number of magicians in the Magic Society, and he has already comprehended Power superhuman, Bo Wen strong memorization, what I have learned in my heart now is even more extraordinary.

Even more useful is a magic circle taught to him by the old lunatic Eric. At this moment, under the lake under his feet, six magic power crystals are hidden at the bottom of the lake. The magic power from far away is slowly forced out, and it keeps giving this ice plate The cold air was injected to keep the ice from melting, and the six magic crystals formed a hexagram shape and hid it under the lake. This jade plate was firmly fixed in the center of the hexagram, forming a solidified small The island is average. At this moment, Du Wei was wearing a fluttering black robe, standing on the ice plate, the azure blue of the sky, the blush of the sunset, and the quietness of the lake, against the background of these, it seemed that he was floating in the dust, as if he was no longer Like the characters in this world...

On this ice tray, Du Wei's body was covered with a thick layer of leather cushions. Du Wei just sat on it calmly, looking relaxed and lazy, squinting his eyes. Bottle of fine wine.The dark red wine, after being shaken on the ice tray below, the bottle was already tinged with cold air, and drops of water dripped out of the bottle wall, making people covetous when looking at it. Du Wei breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand to pinch the bottle, put it to his mouth and took a sip, sighed comfortably, and sighed slowly: "Okay... well, I've been in the Northwest for so long, but why haven't I been here yet?" Think of such a good way to enjoy it."

After finishing speaking, he suddenly lifted his robe. Under the magician's black robe, Du Wei simply sealed the magic package that Gandolf had given him to the inside of the robe, forming a pocket.The magic bag was originally a storage item, so the pocket in Du Wei's robe became a pocket with a huge storage space... Well, like a doraemon, Du Wei couldn't help but smile. What he took out from his pocket was nothing but a musical instrument. The appearance of this musical instrument, even if the musicians from the entire Roland Continent came together, no one would be able to recognize it.

This jumping piece is about one meter long, with a crystal clear top, and a total of eighteen strings.The whole body is dark red. This, surprisingly, is a guzheng! Du Wei invited several musicians in Loulan City to make this thing in recent days.Originally, there was no such thing in the Loulan Continent. On this continent, when it comes to Qin, the harp is the most important.Fortunately, most of these plucked instruments have similarities. Du Wei explained to these musicians again and again, and finally came up with three or five instruments. After trying to play, Du Wei picked out the one with the most beautiful sound in his hand.

At this moment, Du Wei turned over and sat up. The guzheng was laid flat in front of him. After lightly stroking the strings with both hands, with a slight movement of his fingers, a long note burst out immediately... If you want to say how Du Wei can play with this thing, it is not a matter of this life. In the world he lived in in his previous life, those cramming education for exams made people speechless, but he still liked to make superficial articles, that is, "become a bitch and set up a memorial archway". The fake big empty slogan of "quality education" came.Ever since, the higher-ups above also set up a few empty names as a cover.The biggest pretense is that personal specialties such as the beauty of music and body can add points in the college entrance examination.

The euphemistic name is: comprehensive development. It's just that the threshold is raised high. For example, in terms of music, unless you win the top few places in a regional provincial and city competition, it is absolutely not your turn to gain points and other good things.Imagine such a high threshold, how many people can benefit?Most people still go to endorsement honestly and do the cramming.The so-called quality education, all-round development, is nothing more than a bitch's archway. In Du Wei's previous life, it happened to be a strange thing.He has learned guzheng since he was a child, and it was originally an act forced by his parents, but somehow, he ended up in the top three in a city competition, and finally gained some points in the college entrance examination as he wished, and got into a good university inside.

It's just that Guzheng is the most time-consuming thing, and if you don't spend effort, you will definitely not be able to practice it well.And this thing, not to mention heavy, is also high-spirited.Although this thing seems elegant, in fact, among Du Wei's previous life, few people can understand it. Du Wei was forced by his parents to practice for a few years when he was young. After college, he didn't touch this thing much.And... the most depressing thing is that those perverts among the classmates, every time they go to practice guitar for a few days, they can run to the girl's dormitory with their backs on their backs to play and sing, which makes those ignorant silly girls scream and cheer, Gained a reputation as a romantic and talented scholar.

But how can such a popular and simple musical instrument as the guitar be comparable to the guzheng?Back then, seeing a group of seniors and juniors casually holding a broken guitar and randomly playing the song "Look at the Girl Opposite", the girls who could seduce them winked all over again, which really made Du Wei secretly hate: I practiced The most important thing is the guzheng, which is heavy and heavy. You can't carry such a big guy and go downstairs to the girls' dormitory to show off, right? If you really do this... I'm afraid you will be regarded as an idiot! I've only seen boys playing guitars under the girls' dormitories, but I haven't seen anyone playing a guzheng. Although I hate it, although Du Wei's guzheng was a little abandoned in those years, he would still take it out to practice during the festivals. After all, although it was forced by his parents since elementary school, it has gradually become a habit. After coming to this other world, I haven't touched it for so many years, but I suddenly found it these few days... not for anything else, but because of the first one who came to trouble me... that dragon! According to the news brought back by Hussein, the eldest son of the Dragon Clan patriarch has powerful magical powers, especially dragon language magic.However, its weakness is nothing else... To put it simply, it is two words: Pretentious. ... This pretentious thing is not something that anyone can do.Pretend well, that's called pretending.But if you don't pretend well, you will become a fool directly. This prince of the Dragon Clan, as the son of the patriarch and one of the most powerful magicians in the Dragon Clan, seems to be extremely obsessed with rhythm. It is said that this dragon once imitated the patriarch of the dragon clan, sneaked into the human world, visited musicians, and was very good at the rhythm of the human world, including the harp and organ. The prince's obsession with music is an anecdote among the Dragon Clan.It is said that it is addicted to sound, especially good at the piano.This dragon clan is born with a different structure from humans. A human palm has five fingers, but this dragon clan is different. Ordinary red dragons and green dragons have two fingers, and the king of the dragon clan, the golden dragon, only has four fingers. . But in the rhythm, the four fingers are just the best material for playing the piano.I heard that the dragons were punished by the gods and guarded on the mountain to prevent the exiled races in the north from returning to the Roland Continent. Those exiled races often try to pass through the area guarded by the dragons, but they often fight with the dragons. died. This dragon prince, sitting on the top of the sacred mountain all year round, watching the chilling cold wind in the north, comprehended the melody amidst the murderous aura, and after getting used to watching life and death fights, he developed a little understanding, often Sitting and looking at the north of Shenshan Mountain, he sat for a whole day, and even took out the piano to play.The sound made the Dragon Clan obsessed. Even once, even a few adventurers from the exiled races in the north came to the foot of the sacred mountain, and before they tried to cross the forbidden area, they heard the prince's rhythm, and turned around and left far away. From then on, this prince of the Dragon Clan got a nickname, among the Dragon Clan, he was called "Qin King". Later, everyone felt that this "King" was not magical enough, so they simply upgraded him to a higher level and renamed him "Qin Emperor". Among the dragon clan, the Eight-fingered Qin Emperor, although not necessarily a master who convinced every dragon, was respected by everyone. ... As the sun was setting, Du Wei bowed his head and pondered for a long time holding the piano, with a slight smile on his face, and then suddenly his hands shook, and then the melody fluttered, and an ancient tune came out from his hand... I haven't played for many years, although my technique is a lot rusty, but these days I play every day, and I have regained a lot of my old skills.At this moment, Du Wei has no distractions, his fingers are light, his right hand supports, splits, picks, wipes, picks, hooks, shakes, pinches, etc., and his left hand presses, slides, kneads, and trembles... The sound of the piano is full of shaking from time to time, gradually stirring, and finally there is a faint sound in the sound of the piano. It seems to bring out a hint of wind!The whistling of the wind was not ear-piercing, it fell into people's ears, but it felt refreshing, making people secretly excited without knowing it! This song "Fighting the Typhoon" is one of the top ten famous guzheng songs, and it was also Du Wei's favorite piece back then. The smell of boundlessness. A piece of music was played, and when the last note was reached, Du Wei hooked his fingers like a gold and iron horse. He took a big gulp, sighed, and faced the empty lake in front of him, suddenly smiled lightly and said: "Since there is a respected guest coming, why don't you speak? Could it be that my piano sound is so rough that it's hard for your ears? " This light question seems to be an understatement. But just about ten meters away from Du Wei, the air seemed to be distorted suddenly, and then a figure slowly emerged, it was the strange guest who had inquired about Du Wei in the hotel in Loulan City.There was a hint of surprise on this person's face at this moment, and there was a trace of strangeness in his voice: "Yi? Your Excellency Duke is really extraordinary, and you can actually see the invisibility spell of my dragon clan?" This person suddenly appeared, Du Wei's face was indifferent, but there was an imperceptible strangeness in his eyes. Damn it... Do you really think, young master, that I have seen through your invisibility technique? Du Wei secretly smiled. In fact, where does Du Wei have such a skill?He was just pretending. He has been sitting on the surface of this lake from morning till night for three full days.For the past three days, he has been sitting on this ice tray every day. Although it looks elegant and there is a thick leather cushion under his buttocks, Du Wei has already suffered a lot! The cold air under the buttocks has already numb Du Wei's buttocks. If this dragon doesn't come... I'm afraid Du Wei will have hemorrhoids! As for seeing through the invisibility of this dragon?It's even more nonsense. In fact, for the past three days, Du Wei has been sitting on the ice tray and playing the piano every day. After playing a song, he purposely loudly said such a sentence to the air, inscrutable.Du Wei has deliberately said this pretentious sentence of "since there is a distinguished guest coming" to the air one or two hundred times in the past few days! Sure enough, Du Wei really succeeded!The dragon looked at the young duke sitting on the ice tray in surprise, and really thought he had seen through his invisibility spell! This young duke... is not easy! "What is this musical instrument in your hand? Why have I never seen it before?" Dragon Prince looked at Du Wei's guzheng with eager eyes. Du Wei smiled sassyly: "It's just a little self-entertainment trick I came up with by myself. Maybe the respected guest can listen to it?" The Dragon Prince couldn't help but be moved! He made it himself? Given its preference for human melody, it is not difficult to hear that the melody of this guzheng is in its own style, no matter the fingering or the style of music, it has completely formed its own system, and there is no sense of jerky! This is actually created by him?Seeing how young he is, he still has this kind of ability?Then, the talent and attainments in rhythm are far beyond the reach of this dragon who has lived for hundreds of years! ! Du Wei's buttocks were already frozen, but the tall man's smile on his face did not retreat at all. Looking at the first prince of the dragon clan in front of him, he suddenly smiled lightly, and plucked lightly on the strings. With a bang, a short but murderous note jumped out, and then Du Wei sighed softly: "The whereabouts of the respected guest are strange, and you are lurking here. Although your face is calm, there is a murderous look in your eyes... You must know that although people's ears and eyes are easy to hide, but this melody is like the heart, but it can't be hidden... Alas..." After speaking, Du Wei suddenly grew up, and suddenly pulled out a long sword from the magic bag in his arms. The dragon prince smiled coldly, looking at Du Wei with a sword in his hand, but he was unafraid.It is one of the strongest in the Dragon Clan. Du Wei, let alone holding a sword in his hand, even if he has thousands of troops, he doesn't pay attention to it.It's just that seeing Du Wei draw the sword as soon as he said it, the Dragon Prince couldn't help feeling slightly disappointed... Alas, so he has such a demeanor? The Dragon Prince couldn't help feeling disappointed.It lurked just now, but heard Du Wei's "Fighting Typhoon". You must know that this song "Fighting Typhoon" is a masterpiece of Guzheng's technical breakthrough, and it can be called a classic of a generation. He lost 50% to 60% of his ability, but after all, there is no such thing as a guzheng in Loulan mainland. The melody-loving Dragon Prince was delighted to see Lie Xin, so he hid in the dark and didn't make a move. After a song, he was mesmerized by it!I just feel that none of the music pieces I have heard in my life can compare with the performance of this young duke!And what's rare is that this young Duke, sitting alone on an ice tray under the blue sky, clear water and red clouds, playing a piece of music, is even more shocking!A lazy look, full of inscrutability, and that calm demeanor is really heart-wrenching! The Dragon Prince can be regarded as a man of wide knowledge. He only feels that no one he has come into contact with in his life can compare with this young duke in terms of tolerance!It is really elegant to the extreme, but also mysterious to the extreme! Such a character, even if he is an enemy, the Dragon Prince can't help but feel a little bit unbearable.It was originally a dragon that likes elegance, but now seeing a character like Du Wei with such a demeanor, it really made the hostility in his heart a little less. But after Du Wei finished speaking, he drew his sword, which was a bit more clichéd and rude.Under Prince Dragon's frown, he couldn't help but feel disappointed, but he felt a little more relaxed: Well, it turns out that he is nothing more than that, so I won't feel too guilty for taking his life. His face changed, and there was a trace of murderous look in his eyes. He was about to speak when Du Wei suddenly raised his sword... Click! ! ! ! But after seeing a cold light, the guzheng in front of Du Wei was cut off by Du Wei's sword!Then Du Wei sighed, raised the broken piano with both hands, and threw it into the lake along the edge of the ice tray... When the Dragon Prince saw it, he couldn't help being surprised: "What are you doing! How could such a magical instrument be destroyed so rudely!" However, Du Wei sighed quietly, turned around, looked at the red clouds in the sky, and said leisurely: "The melody of the piano is like the heart, and the most important thing is not to be fascinated by dust. Once it touches the dust, it will be lost." Clear... Sigh, my qin is good, but it is stained with your murderous aura, the heart of the qin is already impure, how can I play a clear sound? This qin, don't mind it!" When the Dragon Prince heard this, his face changed color unconsciously. He just felt that this little boy was standing on the ice plate, looking at the sky, which really made him feel ashamed. The murderous intent in his eyes, unconsciously, had disappeared to nothing. up... I just feel that Du Wei in front of him, whether it is his demeanor or this ghostly rhythmic attainment, is really not comparable to half of the characters he has seen!Especially seeing Du Wei cut off his qin with a sword and threw it like the bottom of the lake, but said that he was polluted by his murderous aura, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty in his heart! Compared to him... what am I? At this moment, in its heart, how much of the thought of taking Du Wei's life and being an enemy of Du Wei is left? Du Wei almost broke his stomach from laughing, his face was indifferent, but he secretly smiled in his heart: I'm pretending to be a certain level, I guess!Dragon Prince, Dragon Prince, it seems that you are still not fooled?
