Chapter 4 Contact

As a different world, why does there also have a piano? This was once a question that Tang Yi wanted to explore, but of course there was no result.

The only explanation or the gods in both worlds belong to the same department, which is indeed a bit ridiculous, but in fact it is indeed a joke. Tang Yi is not a person who likes to get stuck in things that cannot be explored. The important thing is that at present, he is playing the piano.

According to Viscountess, the history of the piano in this world is only a hundred years, and there are very few famous piano masters that can be produced. When he played last time, he was worried that his performance would be accepted by people in this world. However, after watching the surprise expression of Viscountess after listening to a Bach's Creative Song last time, he realized that as long as it was music, there was always something in common with each other.

Besides, the piano has just started, so of course no one will point fingers at what rules should be followed in this section and how to turn that section. All standards for appreciation and playing have not appeared. He is the standard maker.

Compared with the "Creative Song" that was played casually just to debug the piano last time, he was already playing the "Blue Danube" this time. As the "king of waltz", John Jr.; Strauss's most famous waltz, this song is also called "The Second National Anthem of Austria". In 1866, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was defeated in the Pakatan Harapan War, and the people of Vienna, the capital of the empire fell into a dull mood. In order to get rid of this emotion, John Jr. Jr. was commissioned to create this song. I don't remember where I saw this information, but it was precisely for this reason that Tang Yi played this song. He once thought about finding some kind of peaceful power in music, but the effect was very little.

In the past world, he had participated in several youth music competitions with this song and won the championship without exception. However, once, a senior musician gave a high score and commented that "As a young man, it is rare to be able to meet such standards, but no matter how standardized training is, it cannot conceal the fact that this piano piece has lost its soul. If you do not mobilize the emotions of resonance, what you can achieve is just a technical peak..."

Since then, every time he plays this song, he only feels deep frustration.

But this time it's different.

The soul needed in some kind of music rose on the river of his soul for the first time. When his agile fingers jumped lightly along the track that had been practiced repeatedly for thousands of times, he also gained great enjoyment from it for the first time. His body seemed to have disappeared. He was quietly immersed in the melody of music, feeling the flow of music and time. The only thing in the world is that music and the river of time that quietly pass through, they passed through his body smoothly and gently, and every change seemed extremely clear.

The music is pulled toward the high and loudness of the end, and the end of the song. The tune seems to be deeply engraved on the human eardrum, circling for a long time, the sky light gently shines into the hall, and the white gauze gently caresses. Tang Yi takes a deep breath, a quiet and timeless afternoon.

After a long time, no sound was heard. Tang Yi came back to his senses from the music. What was going on? There was no applause. Did he leave after listening? When he turned around, he found that the two ladies were still sitting on the chair. The viscountess was lying lazily in the chair, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, shaking subconsciously. I don’t know how long it had been shaking. His eyes looked to the side with a little melancholy. He felt his gaze and then withdrew his gaze. He looked at him for a long time before he smiled naturally. As for Furna, he leaned forward a little, held her hands on her thighs, lowered her head, and looked away on the ground, not knowing what she was looking at.

How could this look...

When the performance was finished, there were people cheering as usual, some people gave flowers and some howled, but the situation was very enthusiastic no matter how. This time I felt much better than before, but why was the reaction so strange? Could it be that only I felt good, and I couldn't help but get out of tune as I felt good?

"Uh... I'm ugly..."

The two listeners did not respond, so he had to speak first, and then the Viscountess responded first. She only took a lot of effort to lift the wine glass to her mouth, drank it all in one slight rudely, and then let out a deep breath.

"It seems like we want to empty the power of a person's soul. From now on, except for Ayi's performance, I think there is no more music in the world that can be listened to..." She smiled charmingly, "I really don't know whether it's lucky or unfortunate."

"Ah...uh... that, sorry... no, I mean thank you..."

Hearing such praise, Tang Yi couldn't help but blush, and the viscountess smiled gently. Ferna finally raised her head at this time, and her expression surprised Tang Yi a little. She saw her last time when she came, and had a conversation today. In Tang Yi's mind, this beautiful blonde woman has elegant behavior and calm temperament. In general, this is what people gradually cultivate in life because of experience and exercise.

The shell, just like the gentle, polite and optimistic and sunny feeling he once gave people, once such shell is formed, it will not change easily. Once the shell is removed, people will return to the fragile and easy-to-kill soul level. But at this time, she obviously showed another style, her calm temperament is gone, her blonde hair on her forehead is slightly scattered, but her face shows charming laziness and a little shyness. This situation even makes people feel a little... naive and cute?

"Uh... I'm cumbersome all over, I don't have any strength..."

Tang Yi's face turned red involuntarily, and then he turned his head to the side quietly...

******************************************************************

"There is a difficult and over-speakable request. Even Ayi, you would think that I, an old woman, are using tricks, can't do anything, because in fact, this is indeed all selfish request..." When going out, the Viscountess deliberately left Furna and said her request to Tang Yi.

"Where is, my wife is still in her twenties. If you can be called old, wouldn't anyone in the world be called young? If you have anything, please say it. I will try my best to do what I can do."

"It's about Furna..." The Viscountess pursed her lips beautifully, "Actually, you may not know that she is here to relax this time, because at this time next year, she will have to marry an earl as her family's request."

Tang Yi nodded: "Although it's a bit rude to say this, it doesn't seem like a marriage worth looking forward to, right?"

"Ayi, you are right." The Viscountess smiled. "If I am in my position, I will ask her to directly reject the family's request. Of course, it will be a little difficult, but it is not impossible. But the problem is that she does not seem to have any ideas in this regard. The child looks calm and strong on the outside, but is quite fragile on the inside. Although the family has no commendable efforts to her, she cannot firmly escape, which makes me very embarrassed, and she herself, obviously, is in a dilemma for this matter."

"For this reason, I invited her to relax in this place, because to be honest, I have always been worried that she would fall into another rather dangerous mood. If it really makes her feel that everything is irreversible, there is no room for turning around... I believe you should understand what will happen, Ayi."

"Um..." Tang Yi nodded, and it goes without saying that it was nothing more than suicide.

"In fact, I used some scheming." The Viscountess looked at him. "Ferna has loved music since she was a child, so I have a heart since the first time I saw your performance. Can this strange boy impress her? The facts prove that my guess is completely correct. Instead of letting a relative enlighten her, I think it would be more effective to let an idol she admires."

She gradually changed into a praying expression: "I hope Ayi, you can give her a positive and optimistic attitude. It is best if she can make her determined to get rid of those unnecessary bonds. If not, I hope she can at least make her happy and not go to that dangerous path."

"Hmm." Tang Yi nodded, with a smile on his face, "What should I do?"

"I think... First of all, I hope you can take the time to come as much as possible. She will definitely look forward to your performance. In fact, I also hope to listen to such a performance a few more times. Today's music is really... Oh, I can't find the right words to describe it... I just hope that such a request is not too presumptuous..."

"...It's okay, I think it should be possible..."

After nodding and agreeing, Tang Yi officially said goodbye. Shortly after entering the mountains, a petite figure flashed out of the tree like an elf and drilled into his arms. It was Xiaoxue.

"Ayi came back so early today..."

"Ha, because I'm not entangled by those annoying children." He kissed Xiaoxue on the forehead, "I'm so sorry for letting you be here alone for so long."

"It's okay, I'm watching those people here, it's very interesting..."

"So, what did you see today?"

While speaking, the two walked towards the darkness in the forest. After a while, two giant wolves emerged from the front and roared at them. The two sat on the wolf's back and disappeared into the depths of the jungle in a blink of an eye.

More than a year has passed since Xiaoxue brought him into contact with human traces last time. More than two years have passed since he came to this world. Therefore, although Tang Yi still seems to have not changed in terms of appearance, at the beginning of this year, he had officially celebrated his eighteenth birthday. In his mind, this is the age to be responsible for his behavior. In short, he has become an adult.

Since she was sure that Tang Yi would not leave her, Xiaoxue no longer resisted Tang Yi's contact with humans. Therefore, when Tang Yi began to learn the language of this world and initially explore this strange world, Xiaoxue was able to observe the lives of those people alone in the mountains and forests not far from the town. First, she contacted with fear and cautiously, and was forced to retreat by the scare of every cup of bow and snake shadow. Later, she gradually let go of her hands and feet. Occasionally, human children played on the edge of the forest, and she would still look curiously on the trees. However, the shadows of the past have not yet faded completely. It would probably take some time to formally interact with humans outside like Tang Yi expected.

It's okay, I will accompany her and let her go gradually. I should have entered this world, but before that, any efforts I made for Xiaoxue were worth it. After all, I was just curious about this world, and only Xiaoxue was the person I really needed.

Therefore, it is good to be able to have the best of both worlds, but even if Xiaoxue really can't let go of her for the rest of her life, she will be here for the rest of her life.

After gradually contacting humans, Tang Yi spent a while to learn the language of this world. After that, many daily necessities that he thought were necessary were also bought into the forest. Now the daily necessities in the bamboo building on the grass are all available. As for the source of the money, it is not obtained from the outside world, but purely picked up in the forest.

According to Tang Yi's understanding over the days, this forest is called the Watching Forest, which is already a very dangerous place on the continent. The towering cliffs of the high land is named Ed Platform. In ancient words, it is called the Tomb of the Dragon. It was once a place where a large number of dragons lived. After the ancient magic empire was annihilated, the dragon clan, which was originally unprosperous, gradually embarked on the decline. A large number of dragon clans died, and the countless treasures they collected were left on the Ed Platform. It is said that there are not only a few giant dragons left on the continent, but also countless high-end lives such as undead dragons, night fairies, etc. Even so, countless explorers and trace seekers still rush to step into this dangerous area.

There are so many people who can watch the forest, but if they die here, the treasures carried by these people will remain in the forest, and of course there are many people who die from the mouths of wolves in the forest. When Tang Yi once discovered human corpses in the sphere of influence of the wolf pack, looking for the things left by these people became his biggest hobby for a while, gold coins, silver coins, scepters, armor, weapons, accessories, magic balls... and so on. But he didn't know most of the things, and could only be used to see them. For example, the two power gold coins of the ancient magic empire were found from other relics, but died here and became Tang Yi's bag.

The days after that still passed by plainly. After the harvest festival, Tang Yi often took time to visit the Viscountess' villa, occasionally playing a song, and occasionally chatting with two ladies. Tang Yi was still very interested in magic, but considering the problems portrayed in countless novels, since asking a warrior about his martial arts was a taboo, there was no reason why the magician would tell the mystery of his own magic without any scruples. Many times, he could only try to resist curiosity and not explore the places that interest him. He thought he was right in his heart, but he didn't expect that Ferna would have another idea.

Ask me, ask me, be interested, be interesting, as long as you speak on your own, I will tell you...

This is what Furna thought. Over the past few days, she finally realized that the other party's interest in magic was not a pretender. But she was a well-educated lady and had her own reserve. She could not show her skills in front of men like she showed off. What she wanted to do was ultimately a boy. On the other hand, after listening to Tang Yi's performances so many times, she was extremely impressed and moved. She also hoped that she could show her skills in front of the other party. Magic was obviously her greatest capital.

But the development of the matter obviously made her a little resentful. Occasionally, when she used magic in front of Tang Yi, the other party was obviously interested, but she always held back and said nothing. It was not a big deal. As long as you ask me, I would say everything. Furna often thought depressedly.

In this way, Tang Yi was not easy to ask, and she didn't say anything. In the end, Tang Yi still didn't understand the mystery of magic.

It gradually came two months later, late autumn and early winter, and the year was colder, but the weather began to turn colder. During this period, the Viscountess tested Furna's feelings for Tang Yi more than once, and Furna avoided the other party's topic.

"What, aunt, they just treat him as a good friend, and I admire him very much. He is so amazing..."

"Aunt...I'm having a engagement, how can I still like others? This is causing him..."

When she thought of this occasionally, she felt a little sad. Yes, she had a engagement and she didn't even have the qualification to like people. Moreover, the other party came here for refuge. If the family's power was involved, wouldn't it hurt him? Of course, her feelings for him have not reached that level, she just had a good impression of him, she was just a friend, right... She told herself over and over again.

Such a mental defense collapsed a day after the weather turned colder, and the Viscountess accidentally asked a question.

"Who else is there in Ayi's family? Is it alone now?" As people's interactions, such questions should have been known from the beginning. The reason why they are still unknown is that the two women have an answer in their hearts. After all, every time they come to the town, he is alone and never travels with other people. The Viscountess suddenly asked, just to simply find a topic, but unexpectedly, the answer was beyond their expectations.

"No, I have a wife... that's the person I cherish most in my life, her name is Xueer..."

Tang Yi replied with a smile, but did not notice that Furna's cheeks, which had become rosy due to the weather, instantly faded away blood and turned white...
