Chapter 50 [Shadow, is the place of missing]
The zither's courtyard was still very quiet. After Bai Shi stayed outside the wooden door for a moment, he reached out to knock on the door.
The zither was very fast and had already returned to the courtyard. It was him who came to open the door. Seeing Bai Shi's appearance, the zither immediately greeted him with a smile and greeted Bai Shi and walked into the courtyard.
The fragrance in the courtyard was even stronger at this moment. Bai Shi looked around and saw that the piano master was already taking care of the flowers and plants. Although it was only one day, she could get out of bed and walk around.
It seems that with the love of the piano master, there is a new life, and the flowers and plants in this small courtyard are also rejuvenated.
"Ni Shang... Come and see who is here." The piano master's voice was filled with excitement.
After listening to the piano player's words, Shiraishi knew the name he loved.
Nishang slowly stretched out her back, wiped the sweat beads from her forehead, and walked over with a smile, saying, "It turns out that he is the life-saving benefactor. Please come in quickly, please come in quickly."
Nishang stopped what he had done and called Bai Shi into the hut while pouring tea for Bai Shi.
There was no change in the room, the only difference was that there was an extra piano on the wall.
Shiraishi recognized this piano, which was emitting a faint light, the aura of the piano player.
He did not refuse the tea handed over by Nishang. Bai Shi gently put down the piano on his back, looked at Nishang, and said, "It seems that your condition has recovered well."
"Thanks to your benefactor..." Nishang looked at the piano master beside him, and his eyes showed tenderness.
Bai Shi smiled stalemate and said, "You'd better call me Shi Bai... Don't call me benefactor, it sounds awkward."
The piano player is a person with a cheerful personality. After hearing Bai Shi's words, he laughed loudly and said, "Okay, okay. Just call him Shi Bai."
"I'm here today, I guess the piano master has seen it too." Shiraishi said with a smile, subconsciously looking at his piano.
Nodded, the piano master said, "Not busy... Brother Shibai has just arrived, so I will take a break first. It will not be too late to learn after dinner."
Shiraishi smiled and said, "There is no need to eat. I've eaten it when I came before."
"Since Brother Shi is so polite, I won't force it... Please follow me with me." After the words came, the zither stood up, took off the zither hanging on the wall, and walked out of the door.
Bypassing the wooden house, under the leadership of the Qinji Master, Bai Shi and Qinji came to the back door of the courtyard. The back door stood against the mountain and was made of marble. The color was basically the same as the rock. If you don’t pay attention to it, you will not notice that there is actually a door here.
The zither turned a quick stone next to the stone gate, and the stone gate slowly opened with a loud bang. When the stone gate opened, there was no dust emitted. It seemed that the zither often entered and exited here.
There is a passage behind the stone gate. This passage is not long, because after entering, you can see a hint of white light.
Shiraishi did not speak, but followed the piano player and finally walked out of the passage.
What appeared in Shiraishi's sight was a paradise.
The empty earth is covered with green grass, and when it steps on it, it feels soft and soaked in the soles of your feet. The stream flows down from the rock wall, making a gurgling sound. Below it, there is a pool of water. Even if the stream water splashes ripples, the pool water is still transparent. In the air, there is mist. Under the sunlight, a rainbow appears and disappears.
There were golden fish jumping in the pond, as if cheering, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was extremely rich.
There is a stone platform on the grass. The stone platform is carved from rocks. It has strange patterns and a piano stand on it. Next to it, there are several stone benches. This stone bench is not artificial, but natural and rises from the ground.
About twenty meters away from the Qintai, it is a thatched hut with green grass growing on the roof, neatly and orderly.
But what attracted Baishi's eyes the most was the willow tree next to the stream. The willow branches hung into the pond, and the branches and leaves became even greener, while a black hat was hung above the willow branches.
Shiraish stared at the hat without saying anything.
Seeing this scene, the piano master suddenly showed an unnatural smile and said, "That hat is used by me to cover the scorching sun. Brother Shibai wants to learn to play the piano... Then let's start."
After coming back to his senses, Shiraishi smiled stalemate and nodded immediately. Then he saw the piano master pointing at the piano platform and said, "You sit there."
Immediately, the piano player walked into the thatched hut with his zither in his arms. Instead, he sat next to the wooden table inside the hut and played the strings.
The sound of the piano seemed to have the power to penetrate everything, spreading in the void, disrupting the tranquility. At this moment, his words suddenly echoed in the void.
"Play the piano... just to calm your mind. If the mind is not calm, the song you play is purely noise..." The piano master said, pulling the second string. This time the piano sound seemed to be much thicker than the previous one, and it would not dissipate in the void for a long time.
Listening to the pianist's words in the void, Bai Shi slowly sat down and looked at the strings. The pianist plucked the third string.
After the string was plucked by the zither, its power was even more piercing than before. The sound of the string echoed, and in the tremor, it alarmed the birds on the tree, causing the birds to escape in an instant.
"Playing the piano is like practicing... If you can integrate your consciousness into the song, the piano will have a breath from your own. If your mind is calm, the piano will be skilled and the strength will be high... If your mind is confused, it will be like getting into a devil."
As the third string was plucked by the piano player, his words spread again as the sound of the piano echoed.
Bai Shi looked at the stream flowing in front of him, but from the gurgling sound, he understood the words of the piano master. In his thoughts, the piano master plucked the fourth string.
The plucking of the fourth string, as if it contained the power of heaven and earth, also seemed to activate a certain law of heaven and earth. The moment the sound of the piano echoed, it seemed to have the power of transmitting sound for thousands of miles, and it seemed to tremble in the void, which made the water in the stream and pond tremble for a moment.
"There is chaos in the mind, and quietness is also in the mind... chaos and quietness, consciousness, concentration... consciousness is integrated, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can be integrated... and there is no song in the world, and songs come from the hearts of people. Therefore, all I can do is teach you some fingering techniques and heart tips. As for the songs, you can understand them yourself."
The piano master's words fell and suddenly plucked the fifth string. As the string plucked, an invisible wave of energy suddenly burst out from the thatched hut. Its sound shook the white clouds in the sky, and its waves roared past Bai Shi's head and hit the rock wall. When it exploded, gravels were flying on the rock. After a piece of dust and smoke passed, its sound disappeared in the void. At the rock hit by the energy wave, a big regular word - Jing!
As if he could see through Bai Shi's heart, the moment the word appeared in Bai Shi's eyes, Bai Shi's body trembled, and his lips trembled, and he turned his head to look at the place of the wooden house.
At this moment, the zither had already walked out of the wooden house.
The piano master smiled and walked towards Bai Shi. After telling some fingering techniques to Bai Shi, he said: "In fact, I already knew that you are a monk, and you are a monk with strength beyond foundation building... It is indeed a miracle to have such a fortune as you are. However, since you have chosen to learn piano with me, you must be unable to decide in your heart.
This happened after Dongxuan, because if you were before Dongxuan, you would not be able to calm your mind, and your strength would not be as strong as you are now..."
Bai Shi looked at the piano player without saying a word. In silence, he heard the piano player say: "Yesterday, when you saved Nishang, I seemed to see someone in your eyes, but it was just a shadow, the shadow in your heart, what you miss in your mind - where!"
After the piano master finished speaking, he walked to the front of the piano platform. When he was about to leave, he suddenly stopped and said, "The reason I brought you here to learn piano is because I hope you will put your thoughts on the piano music and bury the piano music in their hearts. With this calm mind, you can obtain the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth here to enhance your strength!"
After the piano player finished speaking, he entered the passage and disappeared.
Shiraishi looked at the road where the piano master left, and for a moment he didn't know how to express his inner feelings at this moment. In his thoughts, he looked up at the sky and saw the dazzling light, but he did not frown slightly because of this, but saw the outline of the scorching sun in this strong light, but the color was no longer the same.
