Chapter 417 The Fifth Movement The Angel Tells Me (8): Temporary Decision (Two in One)

"The never-withering nectar disappeared?"

In the teachings of Fanghui Temple, it is a "sacred substance", the two little girls exclaimed, and Fan Ning's pupils also dilated instantly.

But in fact, the degree of surprise in his heart is limited, and this expression is a cover-up.

The loud noise after Miss Nightingale's curtain call not only made him feel that the support on the soles of his feet was folded and dropped, but also seemed to have almost emptied some of the little leftovers.

As the Orthodox Church, the Fanghui Temple will not lead to degeneration in general, but this continent has been infected by the "Red Pond", and the Special Inspection Office has been secretly investigating. Fan Ning has always been very vigilant. Not daring to have a thorough heart-to-heart relationship with any Extraordinary organization.

"Is 'all' gone?"

After all, it was a shocking anomaly, Fan Ning asked with normal doubts and concerns.

Fields told the truth to the "King of Love Songs" in the southern kingdom: "The investigation progress of each branch hall is still being reported. Said that this conclusion cannot be drawn for the time being..."

"Maybe it's not 'all'. A small part of the non-withering nectar that has entered the preparatory process for the 'Flower Festival' celebration in our headquarters is still there, but apart from that, the entire Tia city has really disappeared, and the rest of the city-states and The search of the archipelago has not found any remains so far, and the last few 'gardens' in the headquarters that contributed to the main growth of the unfading nectar seem to have dried up..."

Fan Ning is not clear about the extraordinary resource operation mechanism within their church, and has limited knowledge of the true meaning of the never-withering nectar in the southern country, but listening to the archbishop's narration, at least one thing can be understood-the never-withered nectar is not only existing almost disappeared, and its main mysterious reproduction channel seems to have been "discontinued"?

The way this accident happened always felt a bit similar... After Fan Ning thought about it for a while, he thought of another thing in a blink of an eye:
"May it be related to the 'fasting order' issued by your religion recently?"

Fields' answer confirmed Fanning's thinking:

"Nectar of never-withered flowers is regarded as the primary representative of His gifts. Its output is positively correlated with the abundance of products in the southern country. It cannot be determined who is the cause and who is the effect, but the fact is that in the past half a century, the two Both are continuing to go lower, and the nectar of undead nectar evaporating overnight may be a worse omen..."

Speaking of this, the archbishop's face was full of gloom: "Mr. Scheler, this is why I personally sent the invitation to you. In addition to inviting you to be the music officiant of the 'Flower Ceremony' ceremony, there is also a A more personal meeting invitation—”

"Our sage 'Ji Yi' hopes to have an interview with you one day before the celebration begins."

Fan Ning's eyes flickered upon hearing this, and he asked a word:
"Executor?"

"Yes." The archbishop nodded, "In the current situation where the activities of secret organizations in the Southern Continent are undercurrents, the church has put a lot of effort into this year's 'Flower Ceremony', hoping to reawaken the 'Fanghui Poets' to be more powerful." The great attention and response, Lord Saint must think that you will give us greater confidence as the priest, and moreover, he who has been promoted to a higher level may have grasped the situation that we people did not know..."

"My intention of coming here is roughly the same. The 'Great Auspicious Time' calculated this year will fall on September 9th. If you wish, you can visit my temple headquarters at any time, as long as you are close to the corresponding fox lily field area and ignite With this invitation, there will be priests coming to receive your party."

After speaking, Fields bowed cautiously.

"Things worth considering." Fanning's attitude did not mean to reject others, but he did not say anything dead.

After the figure of the archbishop disappeared from the passage behind the stage, Luna carefully took out the fox lily bouquet from her sleeve.

"Teacher, this is the ordinary flower bouquet you gave out when you watched the performance before. We suddenly found it a little strange in the middle of the night, and then we found that it turned into this..."

This time, Fan Ning was also shocked by its peculiar shape and light.

I don't feel it when I look at it, but when I touch it, my spiritual sense tells Fan Ning that the invisible power of "Pond" contained in this strange object is extremely condensed and huge!
"You don't feel anything else strange, do you? Leave it to me for safekeeping."

It would be fine if it was related to Fanghui Temple, but the Lord of Witnesses worshiped by the other two secret organizations in the Southern Continent also involved "Pool", Fan Ning did not dare to let these two students carry it around for a second longer.

"Except for the sweet taste of saliva in my mouth when I hold it, there seems to be nothing else," Miss Nightingale said.

Luna on the side quickly nodded and handed over
"Ann, you go to the cast room to collect your things, go out first."

Fan Ning thought for a while and briefly separated the two of them.

"it is good."

The two little girls walked towards the aisle behind the stage.

"Joan."

"Do you know what this is?"

Fan Ning woke up in a low voice.

"Joan, are you there?"

He quietly stared at the music book in front of him. After about 40 seconds, a paper-cut hole finally appeared on the blank page:
"do not know."

"I'm not even sure if it's an Extraordinary substance. I only know that the composition is very pure and single. There seems to be some hidden mysterious power condensed in it."

single component substance?But this material doesn't look like never-withered nectar... Fan Ning thought for a while and asked again: "Didn't you see what happened to it last night?"

It took another few tens of seconds before the movement appeared:

"Why do you think I'll be watching you all the time?"

Fan Ning had nothing to say for a while, he held the bouquet and looked at it again for a while, then carefully stretched out his index finger, ready to "pierce" a trace of inspiration into it.

This time, a sudden change occurred.

My thread of inspiration hadn't penetrated at all, just touched its surface, and the bunch of fox lilies suddenly melted like ice cubes meeting magma.

"what!?"

Fan Ning hurriedly wanted to let go, but it was too late. In an instant, the bright red light quality liquid was "pouring" along the tip of his index finger like a vacuum cleaner!

In a few seconds, the red light spread densely along the capillaries on the palm, and finally formed a pink emblem like a "stick picture" of a fox lily on the inside of the left forearm!

During the whole process, his body and spirit didn't feel any strange, and this emblem seemed to be born in the skin, and it couldn't touch the special place, and couldn't rub it off.

He raised his hand, stared at the emblem with wide eyes.

"Teacher, we're done tidying up." At this moment, Miss Nightingale's voice came.

"Teacher?" Seeing that he was still standing at the front of the stage, Luna called again after walking a few steps closer.

Fanning had no choice but to flatten his sleeves first, then turned around and picked up the guitar that was resting on the ground.

"Let's go."

The street is sunny, and pedestrians are passing by.

The scent of baked flowers is still strong, Luna is still holding her little black umbrella, and the road is still as white as a flashing light.

The spirit is not exhausted, but Fan Ning somehow feels that the sense of detachment after "summer is coming" has advanced to a higher level.

To make an inappropriate analogy, he felt a bit similar to the feeling of walking on the campus street in the summer morning after surfing the Internet all night in his previous life.

"Did you sleep well?" Fanning asked after wandering aimlessly in the street for a while.

"Well, I feel a little groggy. Taiyang can't open his eyes, but he won't be able to fall asleep for a while. I want to catch up on sleep at noon." Miss Nightingale yawned.

Half an hour later, the three of them found Walter in the event-specific hotel arranged by the church. After parading the streets at night, he took a nap for several hours, and he still seemed energetic.

Several people had a simple breakfast together in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel restaurant, and exchanged ideas about what happened last night, but Fanning didn't ask Walter about anything unusual.

While the waiter was clearing the plates, he lowered his head and began to write on a piece of letter paper.

"Today you can leave for the Northern Continent to seek a higher director position. Now that you are the laureate troubadour, it doesn't make much sense to be the permanent conductor of a troupe ranked farther than thirty. The old symphony orchestra, which was between the first and the top There is a lot of room for a young great conductor like you to play in the regiment."

After Fanning finished speaking, he packed the letterhead and handed it over.

"Is this a letter of recommendation?" Walter took it in surprise, "Teacher, you really have quite a deep network."

If it weren't for better development and a more beautiful resume, he, a native of San Porto, would not have crossed the ocean four years ago and brought his family to an orchestra in the southern country to become the permanent conductor.

It seems that although the teacher of this old symphony orchestra feels that the ranking is a bit "high or low", he thinks it is still very suitable for his current career stage.

Generally speaking, as a conductor these days, you can only choose one of the two positions to increase your position or increase your ranking. Like yourself, not only from permanent to director, but also from more than 30 to eleven in the orchestra, it is definitely a huge step.

"After becoming famous, there are always a lot of people in the industry coming to make friends." Fan Ning smiled calmly

"Can I see in advance what recommendations you wrote for me?" Walter was full of curiosity.

"I want to see it too." Luna looked eagerly at the back of the paper.

"Sure." Fan Ning picked up a green coconut and leaned back on his seat.

Walter immediately pulled out the letter inside the envelope, and was dumbfounded.

"He wants to be the music director."

It's fine without Scheler's signature, why didn't even the name of "Bruno Walter" be mentioned?
who am I? where am I?
"Teacher," the conductor choked on his mouth, "I think the recommendation letter is generally well written, please be a little more detailed?"

"How detailed?" Fanning held the straw in his mouth.

Walter cautiously proposes:

"For example, generally speaking, shouldn't the name of the recommender be written in first? And"

"Oh, it's okay, that's not the point." Fanning waved his hand indifferently.

Walter continued to be dumbfounded.

So what's the difference between taking this recommendation letter to the old symphony orchestra and taking a blank piece of paper?
"You will leave today." Fan Ning restrained his usual indifferent expression at this time, and his tone became a little more serious, "Then, bring the two junior sisters with you."

"Take them? Today?"

"Ah, teacher, shall we go to the Northern Continent?"

All three were stunned.

Such a big arrangement, so sudden, and is it going to leave today?
Such a hasty and abrupt decision.

The relaxed atmosphere of the chat suddenly changed.

"The latest boat ticket departure time at Tia Port is [-]:[-] p.m., and there is still a whole day to pack up and prepare, which should be enough." Fan Ning looked at the wall clock on the wall of the restaurant, and then his eyes met Luna and Ann's. The astonished gaze intertwined——

"Walter should be fine, is there a problem with Luna and Ann?"

"I" and "We." The two little girls drew their tones.

In fact, it has long been a great honor for them to become Scheler's students for a non-noble merchant family. Chretien, the head of the family, once expressed his gratitude to Scheler and asked them to obey the teacher's arrangements. Brother Troy has nowhere to put his admiration, but...
"How long will it be?" Miss Nightingale bit her lips.

"Maybe, less than half a year?" Fan Ning said after pondering for a while, "You have already obtained the honors of poet laureate and famous singer, so now it can be understood as a new task of 'study tour' or 'advanced study'."

Walter nodded seriously.

He has been in the southern country for so long, and he has long wanted to seek a higher position. Although the recommendation letter was a bit too incomprehensible, the teacher was right. Working in the old symphony orchestra was the direction of promotion he hoped for before.

"Teacher, what about you? Aren't you going?" Miss Nightingale asked again.

"I have things to do." Fan Ning said, "I will travel to the Northern Continent later, maybe soon, maybe a little longer, you go with Walter first, his position is not small, the platform is bigger, and the opportunities are bigger many."

There is nothing false or deceptive about what he said. Arranging Walter to go to the Northern Continent was also considered a long time ago. The old symphony orchestra is now both vacant as the music director and permanent conductor, although there is Sheeran behind him "managing the family business ", but the artistic leader cannot be vacant for a long time.

Especially now that he is still facing the task of expanding the territory, Fanning plans to act in a low-key manner in "name", and arrange major personnel arrangements as they should.Anyway, it is daily news in the art world that conductors move positions among various orchestras. Conductor Walter likes to rehearse Fanning's repertoire.

But the decision about Luna and Ann was something Fanning had just made.

Everything here is becoming more and more weird. I urgently need to complete the final sixth movement, use the performance at the "Flower Festival" to advance to the level of comprehension, and find out the clues behind Viern, and solve the problem of "Miss Scarlet". question.

You also need to consider whether you should be invited to have an interview with the saint "Yu Yi" who has the power of the orderer in Fanghui Temple.

In short, all of this does not require the company or participation of two students.

Fanning originally planned that the female solo and children's chorus of the fourth and fifth movements should be performed by the two respectively, but substitutions are also acceptable.

It's better to let them leave the Southern Continent directly with Walter.

The sooner the better.

Fan Ning, who was leaning on the chair, folded his arms across his chest, slowly closed his eyes, and said in a sullen tone:

"Go back to Yuanye Villa to tell your relatives and friends, pack your luggage, and I will send you off at the port before sailing in the evening."
