musicians of old

In the hot wind, Fan Ning suddenly felt an unexplained coolness all over his body.

"What's so strange?" He asked after taking a deep breath.

Joan healed the scratches on the surface of the small bench again, and then quickly displayed several rows of words:
"Do not talk."

"It's not an emergency, you still use writing."

Infestation, watching or listening?Is it "Miss Scarlet", Poglerich, or something else? ... Fanning's heart tensed, but then he realized that Joan might also be backtracking after preventing something.

Compared to saying words scattered in the air, perhaps this way of "creating and erasing wounds" is more confident in her controllability.

The small bench continued to rustle, and sawdust flew:

"The strangeness is intuition. I won't be able to explain it for a while."

"In addition to being able to exert a real influence here, there is another point. I can find you directly along your dreams and keep looking at you."

"Although this is also because you will be close to me in a shallow consciousness, I found that I can't directly contact Xilan or other people in this way. This is the same as before. Only you and your surroundings have changed."

...I can, can't Sheeran?Fanning probably understood why she said that she or the whole Southern Continent was strange.

Could it be that some unstable "cracks" or "gaps" appeared after some special changes on my way back to the dreamland?
He collected himself, held the fingertips and wrist of the stone and exerted force slowly:

"When did it start?"

"Song of Awakening?"

Ever since he saw the beams of light bursting out in the city-state that day, he really felt immersed in an indescribable world. At the end of the conversation, Master Luckert also made some descriptions and reminders about "Midsummer".

But Joan's reply shows:

"No, it's still early."

"When I woke you up by the beach, I already had a similar feeling, but it has become stronger these days."

Fan Ning didn't think for too long, he slowly carved on the already leveled stool:

"Can I just leave?"

Faced with this kind of problem, the first solution that Fanning thinks of every time is a simple and rude "none of my business" run away, just like the "disaster" after the Santaram Fort subway incident. Same situation.

Anyway, the troubadour Scheele behaved informally and willfully. No matter what "residence rights", "singing competitions" and "flower ceremony festivals" he wanted to go, as for the few students he accepted, he loved to follow him. Just follow, if you don't follow, just play by yourself.

The series of doubts involving Viern may have a stake in him, but it is not too late to wait and see for a while before returning to continue the investigation.

Joan's response to this question was:

"You must be promoted to a master as soon as possible. If it doesn't affect the progress of creation, it's up to you."

... is a problem that is always present but neglected.Fanning frowned deeply.

The entire "Third Symphony" was conceived based on the inspiration of the southern country. If you leave this land directly, it is impossible not to affect the progress of the creation, let alone make the "Third Symphony" into a unique self-created secret. It's the key, and even a good start may be completely unfinished later.

According to Joan, there may be unknown dangers in staying here, but if you don't become an ascertainer as soon as possible and sublimate your spirituality, then the dream infection of "Miss Scarlet"...is not "possible" but "absolutely" "If something goes wrong, no matter where you go.

And in the long run, in the face of the worldwide investigation by the Special Patrol Office, the matter of promotion should not be delayed.

Fanning pondered for a moment.

Now that he decided to continue the investigation, he asked a more pragmatic question:

"If I can't dream, how can I be promoted later?"

Joan responded:

"I will find a solution immediately, and I won't delay until then."

"When I get in touch with the Northern Continent, I will find a reliable way to allow you to temporarily enter the dream through the dream-linking path of other enlightened beings."

"You can first familiarize yourself with the characteristics of "Illyrian". This kind of antique famous piano is an ordinary and extraordinary item in the hands of ordinary knowledgeable people. It is a sharp tool for creating magical performances in the hands of great musicians. A wise person + great musician, its role will often bring more unexpected results.”

"Other things, it's not too late to discuss immediately when you encounter something."

Fan Ning read the scratches, still subconsciously nodded slightly, then he thought about it, and asked tentatively:
"Are you going to be watching me all the time?"

The handwriting on the stool surface was removed, and it took a long time before there was any movement this time:
"I haven't chased you to the bathroom before."

Water dripped from Fanning's forehead, and he smiled mischievously.

At this time, he felt a little hot where he was sweating, not only his forehead, but also his arms, vest and thighs.

It was the wound caused by "scratching" at those too tricky corners or stairwells when he ran away in a straight line in a panic.

So he carefully carved out another line of words:
"I'm in a bit of pain, can you help me?"

The hot wind of the summer night was blowing, and the sea of ​​flowers lowered its head and rose again. This time, Fan Ning waited for a quarter of an hour, but did not find any movement.

So Fan Ning had no choice but to get up, put his guitar on his back, and walked towards the looming villa in the direction of the grassland downhill.

The small stool with two lines of writing behind him burned into coke under his control.

……

Late at night, the living room of the villa in Master Ton's former residence.

It was past four o'clock in the morning. What the three students didn't expect was that after they sorted out the letters and materials related to Wei Ern, they could still learn such a shocking news in the middle of the night: their teacher was moving into the former residence of the master. In one night, I investigated the clues of the long-lost 'Illyrian' guitar, and got it directly after I went out of the door, and the price was only a little skin trauma!

A reward price of 45 pounds!If you don’t consider the authority of the church, but only consider the cost of the project and the value of humanistic additions, this classical guitar can cover the entire villa estate in the Fox Lily Field! !

When Walter went back to his family's room to turn off the lights and went to sleep, the outline of light-colored maple wood and the patterns of almond leaves and pomegranates were still flashing in his mind. The third-rate fantasy adventure novels on the Internet are outrageous, but the classical guitar erected on the sofa and leaning against the wall by the teacher is "Illyrian".

An and Luna felt that although this kind of thing shocked everyone, it was not "incomprehensible" when it happened to the teacher. Alternatively, it is quite plausible that he would experience some of the more romantic adventures after midsummer.

At Fan Ning's suggestion, the three of them went back to their rooms to rest temporarily. At this time, in the bright living room, Fan Ning was sitting on the sofa in the center with several "healing belts" applied to him by Miss Nightingale on his body. , was slowly flipping through the letters stacked on the coffee table.

Of the two piles, there were only a dozen or so sheets with clear connections on the left, while the pile on the right was half a meter high. According to Fanning's request, Walter and the others collected all the sheets that they felt uncertain about.

Since quite a lot of information on the former residence of Viern has been destroyed, judging from this point alone, the records are very incomplete, and there are only a few exchanges with an extremely narrow timeline.The wording of the two is not very formal, there is no greeting at the beginning and end of "wearing boots and hats", and most of them do not have official carriers such as letterheads, envelopes, stamps, and postmarks.

Regarding the latter point, Fan Ning speculates that due to the relatively close distance between their residences, most of the written communication between the two people on weekdays is delivered by a private driver or a servant, and they can receive a response within half a day, thus downplaying the formal correspondence. A sense of waiting.

"...From the perspective of side effects, the price to bear to solve the vision problem is within an acceptable range. This week, a total of three episodes of headaches and visual and auditory hallucinations occurred, twice before going to bed, and once in the afternoon. Since taking your suggestion, After refusing a few students who came back to class, both the frequency and the degree eased. The next appointment with the pharmacist is three days later." (Louis Viern, September 875, 9)
"It's a pleasing change, but I think that instead of seeking medical treatment in a haphazard manner, it is better to find out whether there are any rules to follow in the distribution of intermittent seizures... According to my experience, this kind of heart-brain-related For illnesses, it is more important to improve my own rhythm of work and rest, and to adjust the relationship between the soul and the body. For example, after I made the decision to move out of the nursing home in advance and return to my residence, my heart disease was obviously alleviated, and I was once freed from the state of being on the verge of death Come out, maybe you just moved out too late..." (Esta Thorn, September 875, 9 new calendar)
"Your suggestion has inspired me a lot, but the "onset pattern" I tried to summarize is really ironic: I went to the city to listen to a concert before the two bedtime headaches; the one in the afternoon was a young man The pianist came to visit; and since yesterday morning I taught a class for a royal princess Eleanor who couldn't refuse, just in time for the pharmacist to knock on the door, the ravings were loud in my ears... Could it be that my discomfort lies in the fact that I listened to Their music?" (Louis Viern, September 875, 9)
……

"Since the beginning of autumn, there has been no progress in the creation of several songs. This is an indescribable state of distress. The source of inspiration is not exhausted, but the operation is stagnant. If it is attributed to your strange work, It certainly seems absurd, but the orchestral piece that haunts you from your spring audition for a piano-guitar duet cut-down in a nursing home to your own harpist in "Wake Up Song" is indeed Like a beam of light too strong to illuminate a room while blinding those near it..." (Esta Tone, November 875, 11 New Calendar)
Under the night light, Fan Ning's eyes flicked across the dark yellow pages.

The content is not small, and there is not much effective information, but at least he has discovered something.

First of all, Viern did not make friends with the guitar master after he settled in Fox Lily Field. They had known each other in a previous "nursing home". These two were not only "music friends" but also "patient friends";
After the cranial drilling operation, Viern's eyesight did recover, but side effects of intermittent headaches and auditory hallucinations occurred. Under Ton's suggestion, he seemed to want to find out the cause of the attack, and concluded the "rule" "It's very strange again, and later, his problems became more and more serious;
As for Ton's own heart disease, Fan Ning knew something about it as early as in the study of music history. The fate of this guitar master was rough and miserable. Only when he realized the "Wake Up Song" at the age of 874 did he receive the courtesy of the church and the public, and received relatively good medical assistance.

But at that time, his family members and lovers all passed away, and his own heart disease had been accumulated for a long time, and he died of illness three or four years later. His achievements in classical guitar were truly recognized by the world, and he was promoted to "New Moon".

Also an untimely death, perhaps a little luckier than Schubert, at least Thon had received initial recognition in the last few years of his life, while Schubert did not consider his talent "worthy" until his death Composer's name, he once thought he was just a music lover.

In the silent night, there was a rare cup of hot tea instead of a cold drink on the coffee table. Fanning's thoughts danced with the water vapor, and his fingers kept flipping through the letters that had been dusty for 40 years.

"Judging from the few words revealed, Viern's "Prelude" to realize the "Awakening Song" was completed in a sanatorium in the spring of 875. This work attracted Torn's attention and appreciation. After trying to play with piano and guitar, Ton decided to help him make the debut of the full version, and acted as a harpist in the band himself..."

"That's right, Viern was originally just a 'blade bearer' in the northern continent. In the southern land, his most proud pipe organ skills are difficult to use. He wants to win a professional symphony orchestra to perform his debut. A foreigner might not get the chance at all, but at that time, Ton was already the poet laureate, and his appreciation would naturally win resources, so he became the next poet laureate..."

"But later, how did Ton attribute the reason for his unsatisfactory creation to the influence of this "strange work"? Although the relationship between the two should be good from the tone of voice, Toen's attitude is mostly expressive Respect and admiration, but it is a bit strange that a person with master talent will be affected by this kind of influence..."

"What kind of work is this? Where is the 'nursing home' where the two once met?..."

After catching a few key threads, more questions followed, and at the next moment, Fan Ning, who was reading the letter, was stunned on the sofa because of a certain keyword in the writing.

This is what Viern wrote to Master Tone. The time has come to January 876. Judging from the previous letters, Viern’s headache is already quite serious at this point, and the progress of Master Tone’s follow-up creation is still stagnant. not before.

"Because the troubled people include you, I must be frank about something involving mysticism."

"After some repeated research and comparison, combined with someone's "reminder" to me, the culprit of my headache and auditory hallucinations is probably not the side effects of the operation, but the root cause of my baton! "
