Old-time musicians

"What will the blessing emblem of 'Fanghui Poet' look like?"

When they turned back, twilight had already begun to appear. Fan Ning was holding an inferior guitar and thinking about this problem in the warm sea breeze.

He tried asking Luna when he came, but he didn't get anything valuable yet.

However, this was the first time he played music after coming to the South Country, and he vaguely experienced an indescribable novel feeling.

If I had to describe it, it seemed like I got the attention of someone from a higher place and then "created something."

Of course, music performance itself is a creative process. As one of the most important procedures in occult rituals, it is not surprising to receive the attention and response of the Lord of Witness...

But Fan Ning felt that after just a few short measures of audition, the sense of creation was extremely "concrete" and the resonance it brought to the astral body was also extremely strong - even the audience could notice it. He himself must be better than the audience. Also be clear.

Whether the reason for the novelty in his playing was because of the divinity that vibrated that extraordinary string, or whether it was related to the fact that he was in the realm of the "Fanghui Poet", he was not sure now.

The sun was still lazily setting above the horizon. The flower beds, small shops, reed ponds and haystacks on the right of the two people, as well as the coconut trees and beaches further away, were all shrouded in the charming red light of sunset.

Like being dipped in wine.

"Mr. Scheler, those few plucks you just made were such a mysterious and mysterious creation." Luna was still immersed in the boundless darkness, the seasonal hallucinations and the rich fragrance of flowers after waking up.

Fan Ning said "hmm".

Although it is a work by an Italian composer, as an Easterner in my previous life, I tried this piece of music that is rich in Eastern mysticism on a whim.

"Is it possible for me to learn?"

She was completely convinced that Mr. Scheler was a true apprentice bard, and even his plan to obtain the emblem of blessing was likely to be realized soon.

But it took some courage to ask this question, mainly due to guilt and lack of confidence.

——Mr. Scheele chose the lowest quality guitar, it must be because he was immature, and he inadvertently showed an expression of worry about the price, and then he saw it.

"It can't be done in a short time." Fan Ning answered truthfully, "Its sound shape is very special, and it needs to be combined with fingering and multi-part control, and the latter two are already relatively advanced techniques in classical guitar. "

...Isn’t it just for a short time? Luna was happy because of this conclusion.

"What is chakra?" she asked.

"The ring finger is 'da da da da'..." Fan Ning said as an onomatopoeia metaphor, "The original long sound with a certain duration is broken into dense and fast homophonic sounds and played repeatedly, so that the melody will have It has a strange sense of urgency and flow...it requires finger independence and is not suitable for beginners to practice at first.”

"Then what is polyphony?" The little girl asked the second question, and immediately began to worry about whether she would be annoying. "Sorry, I seem to have asked too many questions. It doesn't matter if you answer me in a few days."

"If you can hear two or more parts, it's called polyphony. For example, there seemed to be a ring-finger-like melody just now, a bass, and groups of cadenzas." Fan Ning still answered casually.

"Thank you." She slowed down her pace, bowed slightly, and then quickened her pace to keep up.

“Tell me about Marseille.”

"Ah, our Mr. Guide? What happened to him?"

"He made a good suggestion. I asked him by the way."

Fan Ning knew that he was in tatters and had empty hands before. He could scare a little girl like Luna only because of his face and mouth. It was normal for normal adults to regard him as a wanderer. He had just been ready to return to his original self. It is unclear which of the two plans is better than the investigation plan.

But then...if he hadn't believed in the impeccable disguise of "Fountain in the Painting", he almost thought that this person recognized the great musician Carolne Van Ning - although he had not yet had any tour experience, in the end A record sales report I saw showed that the Southern Continent accounted for 12% of the world market share.

Therefore, Masenegu's motive of treating each other with courtesy inevitably aroused some interest in Fan Ning.

"Mr. Masenegou is an experienced 'guide' and has superb swordsmanship and marksmanship." Luna shared the information she knew. "He is the honorary president of the Missing City Chamber of Commerce and the Duke of Falla. Madam’s guest, this is not the only time we have worked together, and the generous remuneration given by my father has allowed us to maintain a happy cooperative relationship.”

Fanning analyzed the information.

Judging from her description, this person is most likely a knowledgeable person, and an official knowledgeable person.

Under the religious political systems of the Western Continent and the Southern Continent, the official intellectuals and the Zhengshen Church can almost be equated. If this is the case, it is more appropriate to gradually contact the Fanghui Temple starting from Marseille.

"Does 'guide' mean clergy?" So he tried to confirm.

"No, the clergy are 'flower-touched people'." Luna shook her head, "They directly worship the 'Fanghui Poet'. It is difficult for a merchant family like ours to recruit their help with money alone. "

"If we want to have a pleasant and perfect journey, we rely more on the 'guide' and the escort to ensure safety, and also rely on the 'troubadour' to bring good luck... Of course, in a sense, peace and good luck go hand in hand.”

Hearing this, Fan Ning pondered for a moment:

"Why do we need a 'guide' when traveling? Is it because we will encounter robbers far away from the city-state?"

"This is an important reason, and the other reason is to avoid getting lost."

"Lost?" Fanning was a little surprised, "Would an experienced merchant not know the way? And... no map?"

"The map can never be detailed enough." Luna said, "Besides, the land here is vast and sparsely populated, and there are strange creatures in the rainforest, wilderness and ocean. It is easy to have some illusions and misjudgments when traveling long distances..."

"In short, getting lost is a very common and easy thing to encounter, and sometimes it happens in a dream-like moment."

"Okay..." Fanning nodded slightly to show that he knew, but he still found it difficult to understand.

The hotel where the caravan stayed was an extremely spacious courtyard with fine white sand like the beach, and coconut trees, cacti and exotic flowers and plants in the corners.

Dusk enveloped the entire courtyard, and several bonfires were lit in the middle. Someone was already turning wooden sticks with big fish, sea cucumbers and sea urchins on them. The overflowing water dripped into the trough and sizzled. The smoke from the burning black olives and jujube wood mixed with the aroma of seafood, turning into a cloud of smoke swirling in the sky.

Before leaving tomorrow, the first night in the south will be spent in Puerto Baquerizo.

"Sheler, you look more like a troubadour than before after holding a guitar!"

Ann stretched out her arms in the crowd, and the flames glowed through her rosy flesh.

Fanning approached the bonfire surrounded by more than ten people, found a place to sit casually, and put the guitar beside him.

Ann came over, and was surprised when she saw its appearance clearly:

"Oh my God, my sister, this is the result of your long wandering, and you actually bought him a low-quality plywood guitar!"

"I..." Luna's face turned red and white.

Based on the subtle thoughts before, she was embarrassed to say that it was Mr. Scheller who chose it himself, which made it impossible to explain the matter clearly.

She could only make a weak excuse thinner than a mosquito:

"I didn't mean it..."
