NFBE Chapter 132 Shock
Chapter 132 Shock
The song "Ten Sides of Ambush" ended, its lingering sound lingering, as if lingering in the air, unwilling to dissipate for a long time. Leaving behind only a room of aftertaste and reverie. By the time everyone came to their senses, the Fusu master on the stage had long since vanished.
"I've had the privilege of listening to 'Ten Sides of Ambush' once before, and hearing it again, I still feel a surge of emotion, unable to contain myself. My whole body trembles uncontrollably, as if I had personally experienced that thrilling battle. The person who composed this piece is truly amazing!"
"Yes, it is full of murderous intentions and crises. No matter how many times you listen to it, it is still amazing. I heard that the last time the barbarians attacked, a team secretly trained by the border guards relied on this song to crush the barbarians' offensive trend in one fell swoop!" The people around were satisfied and sighed, but more of them praised Miss Fusu. She was worthy of being one of the leaders of Qionghua Pavilion. The level of this song was definitely worthy of her reputation.
"Shan Ze, you are really nice. The reputation of Master Fusu is well-deserved. It is worth the trip to listen to his song today!" Wu Ziyu had a look of satisfaction on his face and praised Fusu very much.
Jiang Liunian suddenly mentioned something, his eyes flickering with curiosity. "Speaking of which, I've heard that the score for 'Ten Sides of Ambush' seems to have originated from Jinzhou County. Brother Yunzhou is from Jinzhou County, so I wonder if you know which master created this score?"
He finished his words with a gentle smile on his face. He looked the youngest of the group, dressed like a handsome young man. Judging from his appearance alone, he was probably only a year or two older than Gu Yunzhou. In contrast, Zhuang Xianzhi, standing next to him, seemed more calm and experienced. Gu Yunzhou secretly estimated that Zhuang Xianzhi was probably over thirty years old.
Gu Yunzhou's face flickered with a subtle embarrassment when he heard this. He scratched his ear unconsciously, a small gesture he would subconsciously make when embarrassed, as if to dispel his discomfort. After a moment, he coughed twice and uttered a slightly awkward sentence: "Ahem, yes, I know him."
As soon as these words were spoken, not only did Zhuang Xian's face flicker with curiosity, but even Shan Ze, who had been sitting by the side with a smile on his face, leisurely observing the conversation, couldn't contain his curiosity and couldn't help but interrupt, "Oh? Really? Brother Yunzhou, who exactly is this master? Could you introduce him to me?"
Wu Ziyu also nodded repeatedly and agreed: "Yes, yes, and me too! The skills of this master are truly amazing. I have two great loves in my life, one is poetry and songs, and the other is this lingering music. It is a great honor to meet such a master!" Wu Ziyu also sat up straight with shining eyes and asked.
"Add me in, Yunzhou!" Jiang Liunian also raised his hand.
What else could Gu Yunzhou say? He could only raise his hand to cover his face. He felt a mixture of emotions, mixed with an indescribable sense of guilt. He whispered with a hint of uncertainty, "If I haven't misunderstood you, the master you're talking about might be... me."
"Clang, clang!" A sudden sound interrupted the tranquility in the room. It was the messy sound of bowls, chopsticks and wine glasses accidentally slipping and colliding with the table and the ground.
"Yunzhou, you're joking too much. This is not just a casual remark!" Wu Ziyu widened his eyes with an expression of disbelief. His usual uninhibited and romantic demeanor seemed a little ridiculous at this moment, as if he was so shocked by this unexpected "truth" that he was a little lost.
"Hey, Yunzhou, if you really feel embarrassed, just don't say it. You don't have to force yourself to do this for me..." Jiang Liunian was a good-natured person. He thought that Gu Yunzhou was embarrassed to refuse, so he considerately gave the other party a way out.
"Yun Zhou, are you telling the truth?" Compared to the others' skepticism, Shan Ze inexplicably felt a tinge of trust. The immense power displayed by the national poetry just now was still vividly etched in his memory. He found it hard to believe that someone capable of such heroic words could so easily destroy their own future and become a treacherous villain in the eyes of the world.
Gu Yunzhou sighed softly, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and he slowly said: "This song is what I gave to Miss Su Xun at the Qionghua Pavilion in Jinzhou County in the past..." He succinctly recounted the past, and his words were filled with recollections of the past and speechless about the coincidence of the current situation.
"So that's the case. Yun Zhou is really kind to women. But if not for that, we wouldn't be able to listen to such wonderful music today!" Shan Ze laughed heartily, his face full of satisfaction that he had a good eye for talent.
"Yun Zhou, is it true that the ancient book containing the peerless music score can never be found again? It is really a pity that such a treasure has disappeared from the world. I feel so sad in my heart!" Jiang Liunian's face was full of regret. He felt an indescribable deep pain for the lost cultural treasure.
"I wonder if you, Yunzhou, still remember the other music scores recorded in that ancient book? Of course, I can exchange them for other items of equal value. It's not that I deliberately want to take what others want, but I'm just happy to see the good stuff. I hope you can help me with one or two things. I, Wu Ziyu, will remember this and will definitely reward you handsomely in the future!"
Wu Ziyu suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to Gu Yunzhou. His gesture was so humble that if one hadn't seen it with one's own eyes, it would have been hard to believe that this was the unruly young master of the Wu family. If an old acquaintance had witnessed this scene, they would probably be astonished, wondering when this free-spirited young master could be so humble and ask for help.
"Never mind. I was going to ask about it, but seeing how Ziyu couldn't let it go, it was clear he truly loved it. Yunzhou, if you still have such exquisite music, why not show us another one? Don't worry, we won't reveal a single word about what happened today!" Zhuang Xian sighed softly, and gave up his original idea, instead handing the opportunity over to Wu Ziyu. As soon as he said this, Wu Ziyu immediately cast a grateful look at him, his gratitude overflowing with words.
Aside from the naive Jiang Liunian, the others were all certain that the music must have been composed by Gu Yunzhou himself. While his talent seemed unconventional and almost demonic for his age, they, as members of prestigious families, had witnessed countless geniuses since childhood. A prodigy like Gu Yunzhou, while rare, was not enough to dissuade these seasoned and worldly children from aristocratic families.
The reason why they were surprised just now was that they really didn't expect that the person everyone was looking for was right in front of them. As for what Gu Yunzhou said about seeing it in ancient books, everyone smiled in understanding.
