Chapter 1512: I just don’t know
Lin Fan was certainly surprised to be asked this, but it wasn’t as if he didn’t know what Ye Qing Huan was asking for.
This was something that he had to take a moment to think about since the things that he was bringing out were things from his past life.
It was one thing to take out simple things that could be used as products, it was completely different to take out things that could be used for cultivation like this. After all, the music that was being played here was anything but simple, so he knew that it was a special kind of technique that was being used to play this music.
That was the thing that he was the most worried about.
"What if there’s some kind of strange compatibility issue with the music from my past life and the cultivation techniques of this life..."
However, it wasn’t as if he was able to get out of this.
He could see the way that Ye Qing Huan was looking at him and he knew that she wouldn’t back down on this.
So in the end, Lin Fan had no choice but to take out a few songs for her to choose from.
"If anything happens, I’ll be here to stop it. Not to mention that this shouldn’t be anything serious since it’s just performing a song. It’s not as if she’ll actually be using any cultivation techniques with this."
The moment that Ye Qing Huan received the sheet music, she couldn’t help narrowing her eyes.
As part of her training, it was only natural that she had been taught how to play music with different instruments. It was something that could have helped with all kinds of different situations, so it was something that she learned.
Though it would have been a lie to say that there wasn’t a part of her that didn’t enjoy it.
After she finished looking through the music sheet, she turned to look at Lin Fan with the same look on her face.
Lin Fan just looked back at her with an awkward smile without actually saying anything, but he could tell what she was thinking.
"How can you come up with this kind of music sheet if you’re that bad at singing?"
In the end, Ye Qing Huan didn’t bother dragging this matter out and went up to the stage with the music sheet in hand. After she was on stage, she also raised her hand and pulled out a pure white zither.
The moment that this zither appeared, it already demonstrated just how special it was.
It felt like this was something that was made of pure ice with the aura that it gave off.
This was something that didn’t feel like it could be tainted by anything in the mortal world, it almost felt like something that came from a completely different world with the sensation that came from it.
She didn’t start playing as soon as she pulled out the zither and instead slowly looked over the music sheet once more. It was as if she was confirming what she was about to play before she actually played it.
Then all of a sudden, there was a clear sound that rang out.
As expected of a zither that had an aura that wasn’t normal.
The sound that came from this zither was just as pure as the zither itself.
It was as if just a single sound pollution would disrupt the purity of this sound, but it was also so pure that it was hard to believe that any other sound would be able to enter it.
This was a sound that was completely different from the sound that had been playing the entire time. This wasn’t a sound that could co-exist with other sounds, this was a sound that completely took the main stage, shutting out anyone that tried to enter.
When she was playing this song, it seemed like Ye Qing Huan was completely lost in the music that she was playing. It was as if the zither and the sheet music were the only thing that existed in her world with how focused she was.
With this kind of dedication, it didn’t take long for a phenomenon to appear.
This was the kind of phenomenon that could only appear when the music played reached a certain level.
"Are these rice fields?" Xiao Mu asked in a confused voice as it looked at what was around it.
However, Lin Fan wasn’t surprised at all since the song that he had given Ye Qing Huan was about returning to one’s hometown. This was a song that was about returning to one’s roots and doing something much simpler.
He was just surprised that Ye Qing Huan could play the song to the level that it would show this kind of phenomenon.
This time, there wasn’t the same voice that cut her off. This time, it seemed like the one that was judging this song was completely enthralled by what Ye Qing Huan was playing.
"This is one of the songs that was considered the most popular in my past life. This was a song that basically everyone knew about, so I doubt it would be that badly rated here."
There was this strange sense of confidence that filled Lin Fan as he thought this to himself.
When Ye Qing Huan was finally done with her performance, there was only silence that followed. It didn’t seem like whoever was judging them had recovered from hearing this performance yet.
After a long silence, there was a voice that rang out that caused a bitter smile to appear on Lin Fan’s face.
"I just don’t know..."
At first, they were surprised by what the voice said, but then Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling aggrieved.
"How can you sing so poorly, but write a song like that? This just doesn’t make any sense at all."
It was made even worse when Ye Qing Huan and Xiao Mu turned to look at Lin Fan as well. The look in their eyes made it very clear that they were thinking the same thing as the voice.
Lin Fan did feel aggrieved that they were criticizing his singing abilities like this, but there was a simple explanation that he just couldn’t share.
"I didn’t write this..." Lin Fan thought to himself with a secret bitter laugh.
Once the voice was done making fun of Lin Fan, the tone of that voice changed as it said, "While you pass this first test, it doesn’t mean that you’ve passed all of the tests for this trial."
No one was surprised to hear this since they had already expected this kind of development.
If a single song was enough, then it would have been too simple.
Before Ye Qing Huan could react, she found that she was being moved.
It wasn’t as if she was being pushed away, it was just that the ground under her was moving in a way that brought her off the stage.
After Ye Qing Huan came off the stage, there was something that appeared from the ground. These things suddenly popped out and took their positions on the stage before they suddenly started their performance.
Seeing the appearance of these things, it wasn’t hard to guess what they were doing.
At the same time, the music that had been playing as BGM suddenly became louder.
However, this music matched what the figures on stage were doing.
These dolls were dancing in perfect sync with the music, creating a beautiful display for those that were watching them. But with this dance, they also made it very clear what this next test was supposed to be.
When it was over, the dolls on stage suddenly moved to the side and suddenly collapsed as if their strings were cut.
That single demonstration was enough, now it was supposed to be their turn.
However, it didn’t seem like anyone was willing to go on stage just yet.
Lin Fan certainly wasn’t going to go on stage again just to embarrass himself, so the only thing that he could do was turn to look at Ye Qing Huan as if he was waiting for her to demonstrate something.
She had already shown her talent with the zither playing, so he believed that she would be able to do the same with this dance performance.
Xiao Mu on the other hand seemed to be lost in thought as if it was trying to think of something.
After a moment of silence, Ye Qing Huan turned to look at Lin Fan.
The look on her face was the same as earlier when she asked for sheet music from him.
Just from this, it was clear that she was asking for some kind of choreography from him just as she had done with the sheet music. Only Lin Fan didn’t give her anything right away as he waited to see what Xiao Mu had to say.
After all, it was different from requesting sheet music.
It wasn’t as if a dance routine was that easy to demonstrate, he had to either demonstrate it with his body or he would have to use something else to demonstrate it. That something else was what he was worried about since he didn’t want to expose too much of himself.
But when he saw Xiao Mu turning to look at him with a similar look, he knew that it was hopeless.
It didn’t seem like Xiao Mu had found anything in its database, so they could only rely on Lin Fan.
