42. Music space

Qu Zhaodi, who has always been at ease in the love field, was misunderstood like this, it was really hard to cry and laugh, Shen Yun knew that the war was about to break out, according to the habits of the Americans, as long as he showed a little more resistance, Qu Zhaodi would be beaten into a pig's head.

She hurriedly straightened her clothes and explained to the two heroes: "Thank you, but you misunderstood, he is my friend, and he didn't disrespect me, we just had a little dispute." ”

The foreigner young man is innocent, even if he knows that he has made a fuss, he will not be embarrassed, the black young man's hand is lowered, and the white young man also jumps away from the two, and the anger on his face is replaced by a smile in a blink of an eye.

This episode happened, Shen Yun was sorry for Qu Zhaodi, and naturally she was embarrassed to insist on going alone. Qu Zhaodi drove her back to the dormitory, and neither of them spoke at first. Qu Zhaodi consciously paused the deafening rap music, turned down the volume, connected the car stereo with the Bluetooth of his mobile phone, and played a set of piano songs.

Compared with vocals, Shen Yun prefers to listen to pure music, and she loves piano music the most in pure music.

She feels that the tinkling music is a kind of telling that can travel through time, never telling the specific content, leaving only a vast space for reverie, waiting for people to fill in their own stories, and then interpret them with beautiful notes. Therefore, everyone can have their own piano music, and only they can understand the artistic conception of the music.

When a song by Richard. Clayderman played "Starry Night", as usual, Shen Yun felt a kind of freedom from the constraints of time and space, she seemed to become a cloud swimming in the air, and there were no more worries in reality.

While indulging in the passionate and majestic melody, Qu Zhaodi spoke again, "Music written on the staff is a plane composed of notes and straight lines, but after being played on the instrument, it becomes three-dimensional. A complete piece of music is a complete space, an expansion of the human mind, pushing the invisible dimension of the brain to radiate in an arc to the outside world. It's like hydrogen and helium radiating energy into outer space after the fusion of a star's inner core, and the energy makes the universe more powerful despite the extremely long output path. I think music has this kind of charm compared to the human brain. ”

Shen Yun didn't want to pay attention to him, so as not to quarrel again, but for some reason, his soft Shanghainese tone seemed to merge with the piano music, and one note after another stood up from the lifeless staff, showing a fluttering dance and flying towards the night sky, all the way into the boundless universe, and then turned into shining stars, and then the stars expanded and exploded into clouds of colorful mist and released huge energy, and then gradually converged into a glorious figure, waving to her from afar.

"Dad......" Shen Yun called out in distraction, tears suddenly blurred his eyes.

The tears were crystal clear, but they dimmed all the brilliance of the universe.

When Shen Yun returned to China, Qu Zhaodi did not come to see him off. In fact, he has never come to her since the day of separation. Standing in the hustle and bustle of Auckland International Airport, there was a strong sense of loss in her heart, and Shen Yun felt scared, afraid that she really had feelings for this unreliable junior.

After completing the check-in procedures at the counter, Shen Yun walked towards the security checkpoint with a heavy backpack on her back, but saw her good friend Danny running far away with two elephant legs, and a yellow envelope in his hand, which was a letter written to her by Qu Zhaodi.

"My God!" This was the first sentence that came out of Danny's panting and running in front of Shen Yun.

"It can't be that Qu Zhaodi has an accident, right?" Shen Yun was startled, this thought flashed in his mind, and the smile that greeted Danny instantly froze.

The big fat man Danny was a thick-lined person, and he didn't notice the change in Shen Yun's face at all, so he just wiped the beads of sweat on his head and shouted: "What age is this, you still use pen and paper to communicate?" Take out your phone and type a few words casually, why do you have to send me to be this postman? You Chinese brains are really deep enough, Americans can't turn such a big bend! If I didn't want to give you another ride, I wouldn't do it if he gave me that Lakers jersey signed by Kobe! But Shen, I think this bastard is serious about you this time, you should think about it! ”

Danny's thin lips on the double chin were almost opening and closing at the speed of light, crackling and indiscriminately, Shen Yun really couldn't interject, but fortunately, when she heard that Qu Zhaodi was fine, her smile returned to her face, and she took the envelope without saying a word.

After the plane took off, Shen Yun sat in the seat and took a deep breath and opened Qu Zhaodi's letter.

In a brown paper letterbag was a CD with a few words written crookedly in highlighter: Clayderman Piano Songs.

There is also a small note in the envelope, not an A4-sized letter paper, it is indeed a piece of paper torn out of nowhere, which is also written in clumsy handwriting: I know that the young lady does not love gold and silver, so I offer my mother's antiques of that era as a gift, I hope it is to your heart. It was me who was wrong on the bell tower, I scared you, I'm sorry. But if you don't let me say the last sentence, I'll write it on paper, you can't stop it~ Study the dimensions of the universe with me, in the way of studying the brain. If you want, just let me know online, or I won't bother you anymore. ”

The last sentence he always insisted on saying should be the content that was replaced by the three words "useful" at that time. If he knew how to stop in moderation, it would be over here, at least leaving Shen Yun with a hope, but he wanted to add a p.s to the end, and the additional message was like a hammer, which hammered her heart that had finally begun to thaw to pieces.

P.S. After returning to China, if you meet the right person, get married, give yourself a home, and don't be alone anymore.

After returning to China, Shen Yun did not marry, and did not even engage in work related to this profession at all. After Shen Yin's death, she could no longer stay at home alone, so she left Baoding and went to Beijing to join the Beipiao clan.

Qu Zhaodi's expectations were completely disappointed, as he promised, Shen Yun didn't take the initiative to contact him, and he didn't bother her again. In the following years, Shen Yun only occasionally chatted with Danny on Whatsapp, and Danny never inquired about the two of them, dealing with foreigners, which was worry-free.

Far away from the professional field of brain science that she has studied for four years, Shen Yun herself can't tell why. The only reason she could find was fear, she really didn't have the courage to study the dimensions of the universe with him.

She often listened to Clayderman's "Starry Night" over and over again, and the invisible black-and-white keys seemed to speak to her in the language of musical notes. Listening to it, Qu Zhaodi seemed to start talking again in the passionate music, telling her that the music space is an extension of the brain's thinking. That chorus unleashed a strange energy in her life, pulling a little bit of thought, and she couldn't forget him.
