Chapter 224: How is the Ensemble 1?
As the song ended, Zhang Liang put away the gilded dagger in his hand and traced the source of the melodious flute sound. His figure flickered lightly and in a moment he stepped onto the top floor of the Xueying Building.
In the Xueying Building, in a suite with simple and elegant decoration, Xue'er was stroking the ivory flute, recalling the melody of the ensemble just now. There were very few people who could see through the deep meaning of her music. Unexpectedly, she unexpectedly met one today. The other party was able to step into the path of cultivation with the help of music. His talent and strength were almost the same as hers! You know, this is an extremely difficult and variable road, but the other party was able to break through many obstacles so easily, which was really amazing. It can be imagined that before this, the other party must have experienced countless trials and challenges to achieve today's achievements. And such achievements also make people full of expectations for his future development. Perhaps in the near future, he will become a person who is feared by the world and goes down in history? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly: There are really talented people in every generation! .
"I just don't know which senior could compose such an extraordinary piece of music..." Xue'er sighed softly.
"How do you know it must be the senior? Could it be that he is a young man?" Zhang Liang stood in front of the French window and couldn't help but smile.
"The kind that transcends the mundane world..." Xue'er was about to say that this was the kind of tune that transcended the mundane world and must have come from a hermit master, but she suddenly realized it and stopped talking.
"Who are you?" Xue'er stared at Zhang Liang closely with a trace of wariness on her face, but after seeing his transcendent temperament, she immediately let down her guard, as if at this moment, she had already determined that the person who had just played the music was the person in front of her.
Music comes from the heart, especially for scholars of music theory. Xueer judged that Zhang Liang was not a bad person at first sight.
"My name is Zhang Liang, nice to meet Miss Xueer!" Zhang Liang smiled slightly and flew into the room through the window without any hesitation.
Looking around the room, Zhang Liang found that it was extremely simple, without any luxurious atmosphere, but more refreshing and elegant. However, Zhang Liang's gaze made Xue'er blush slightly. After all, this was a girl's boudoir, and his gaze was indeed a bit rude.
"You, you get out!" Xue'er said in a panic.
"Well, sir, I just want to find a quiet place to practice, and this place is just right. I'm sorry to bother Miss Xue'er for a while!" Zhang Liang smiled without saying anything, as if he didn't hear Xue'er's words at all.
"How can you be such a scoundrel?" Xue'er said anxiously.
"Are you angry?" Zhang Liang couldn't help but laugh, and then teased: "I thought you were an iceberg, but I didn't expect that an iceberg would get angry. How interesting!"
Xue'er was stunned. Angry? It seemed like she hadn't felt this way for a long time. In an instant, she put away her little girl's thoughts and returned to her cold and indifferent state.
"Why do this?" Zhang Liang couldn't help but shake his head slightly. "If you have nothing to be attached to in life, why not end it all? Since you are still alive, why not make yourself feel better? For the living, there are always things in this world worth cherishing, right?"
Xue'er ignored Zhang Liang's words and asked, "Are you Zhang Liang of Korea, Zhang Zifang?"
"The real deal!" Zhang Liang smiled and continued, "Why, doesn't it look like it?"
"I heard that Zhang Liang from South Korea killed countless people and was so frightening that even children would stop crying when they heard his name..."
"Who made up this story about me?" Zhang Liang laughed. "I admit that I have killed countless people. If someone wants to kill me, I will fight back. This is how the world is. When can I make the child stop crying?"
Zhang Liang paused for a moment, looked at Xue'er and smiled, "Your cold look can really stop a child from crying!"
"Hmph!" Xue'er glared at Zhang Liang unhappily and did not respond, as if she hadn't heard him.
Everyone who has seen Cher praises her for her beauty. But when has anyone ever said that she can make a child stop crying? Isn’t that something only a devil would do?
Zhang Liang didn't mind. A cold beauty like Xue'er didn't talk much. He looked around the room and saw a guqin.
With a casual move, the guqin fell into Zhang Liang's hands.
"What a great zither!" Zhang Liang played the zither with a smile. The simple and pleasant sound of the zither rang out, like a low hum from ancient times.
Zhang Liang frowned slightly. This guqin was really too old.
Looking closely at the structure of the zither, the cracks are natural and ancient, the whole body seems to be made of ancient animal bones, and the strings are made of unknown silk threads.
"This guqin was excavated from an ancient relic three hundred years ago. At that time, only the body of the guqin was preserved, and the strings were broken. Later, Master Shi Kuang re-stringed it, and it was passed down to me. However, my guqin skills are not very good, so I can only preserve it!" Xue'er said with a smile.
Zhang Liang smiled slightly. Although this ancient zither is extremely old, it is only old. For those who truly love music, it is naturally a famous instrument. However, the sound quality is excellent. For Zhang Liang, who values practicality, it is not very useful.
"Miss Xue'er, how about we play a song together?" Zhang Liang said with a smile.
"Yeah!" Xue'er nodded slightly. She really loved and was obsessed with music. When she met a fellow enthusiast like Zhang Liang, she naturally wanted to learn from him and exchange ideas with him. Playing together was undoubtedly the most ideal way to do this.
Soon, music rang out again in the room. The zither and flute resonated, transcending the world, like the sound of nature, cleansing the soul, but also like the mundane sound of the world, teasing the world. Under Zhang Liang's deliberate control, the sound of the zither and flute only echoed in this room, without being heard outside.
