Chapter 724: Qin Garden
Li Sen and the others walked along the white corridor all the way to the depths.
At this time, the night was dark, and the distance was hazy, and it was difficult to see the scene. There is no fireworks, as if the pavilions and pavilions in the depths of the Spring Garden are all illusory and illusory, and no one exists at all.
However, after the previous two trials, everyone in the field already knew that there must be masters in this secret realm, so they all honestly went deep along the road, and did not dare to make a single mistake.
Walking all the way, about a thousand feet or so, I saw two nine-foot-high semicircular arches on both sides of the road.
Naturally, everyone's eyes stayed on the top of the two arches.
Where I saw it, it was the four big characters of 'Qin Garden' and 'Chess Garden'.
"Qinqi, calligraphy and painting?"
When Nan Xin saw this scene, he couldn't help but be happy: "These Confucian monks are really interesting, I was a little strange when I saw those two gardens before." Now that I see these two gardens, it turns out to be the favorite 'qin, chess, calligraphy and painting' of those Confucian scholars. ”
Elder Wu snorted lightly, "It's all a frivolous trick to pretend to be a god. Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting sound elegant, but you can't use it to eat and drink, and you can't go into battle to kill the enemy, what's the use?"
Hearing this, although those Miao Jiang elders didn't say anything on the surface, they all looked disappreciative from their expressions. It seems that for the elegant things of 'qin, chess, calligraphy and painting', he doesn't like it.
Instead, Elder Duan coughed lightly and opened his mouth.
"Wu Daoyou's words are wrong. The practice of the Confucian monks is very different from ours, and this qin, chess, calligraphy and painting is also very exquisite. Li Daoyou also said before that in the practice of Confucian monks, everything is a law, and everyone can enter the Tao. This qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, maybe it contains some extremely special cultivation method. ”
When Elder Wu heard this, she showed a suspicious look, obviously not believing it very much, but because of Elder Duan's face, she didn't have much to say. He just snorted lightly and stopped talking.
In the end, it was Li Sen who opened his mouth with a calm expression.
"Now that we've arrived here, there's no need to argue about the usefulness of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. In contrast, let's think about which trial to start with. ”
Hearing this, many Miao Jiang elders in the field looked at each other.
But soon, most of them actually looked at the middle-aged Miao Jiang female elder in the team.
Seeing this scene, Li Sen turned around and looked at the middle-aged woman.
Facing everyone's eyes, the middle-aged woman's expression was still very quiet, she first glanced at the door of the 'Qin Garden', and then said softly: "Since this garden is called the Qin Garden, it should have something to do with music, right? The concubine has some musical skills, and may be able to help a little. ”
When Li Sen heard this, the expression on his face couldn't help but move slightly.
However, Li Sen hadn't said anything yet, but Nan Xin on the side had already slapped his palms and chuckled.
"Haha, I forgot about this! Master, this Granny Ma is a well-known musician in the entire southern Xinjiang, and her skills in the dong flute are unmatched. She taught me the technique of when I was younger. ”
"If so, that's great. It seems that in this trial of the piano garden, we have a few more chances of winning. When Li Sen heard this, he couldn't help but show a smile on his face.
The 'Granny Ma' shook her head and said: "A tube of cave flutes is just a superficial kung fu that the concubine learned by herself in the land of Miaojiang, and she can't enter the eyes of the Fang family." Li Daoyou is talented and has rich experience, whether this piano garden can pass or not, I am afraid it depends on Li Daoyou's guidance. ”
"Where, where, Ma Daoyou is polite, please. ”
Li Sen stretched out his hand and asked the mother-in-law to lead into the piano garden.
After Granny Ma gave in a little twice, she no longer shirked and took the lead in entering the piano garden.
Li Sen, Nan Xin, Elder Duan, Elder Wu and others followed closely behind and entered the Qin Garden.
After everyone entered the piano garden, they didn't look around, and the first thing was a slightly cool fresh breath coming to their faces.
The night breeze blew on their faces, and everyone suddenly felt refreshed, and the hardships and fatigue along the way were instantly alleviated a lot.
And at this moment, the scenery in the piano garden also came into the eyes of Li Sen and others.
First of all, there is a sea of bamboo, green and crystalline, and bamboo leaves are like washing.
On the side of the bamboo sea, there is a mirror lake with a square circle of thousands of zhang, and there are lotus leaves in the lake, swaying with the wind, quite rhythmic.
The scene in front of me is very poetic, which makes people suddenly see it, and they can't help but recite a poem.
"Under the moon, the old bamboo has new leaves, and the light lotus on the lake is sparse and the wind is sparse. Elder Duan twisted his beard and actually read a sentence.
Hearing this, Elder Wu on the side frowned, and continued.
"The wild vines invade the ancient road, and the ruthless moon penetrates the cold pool. ”
The other Miao Jiang elders looked at each other, but Nan Xin was happy: "Three times to seek the Taoyuan realm, the eight tones are in the Qin Garden." ”
After Nan Xin took this sentence, the other Miao Jiang elders shook their heads one after another, but the Ma Granny smiled slightly.
"Wan Lai is quiet like a fairyland, and no one knows that it is my generation. ”
Hearing this, Li Sen stroked his palms and laughed: "Okay, this is interesting." All the elders are really talented people, and Li admires them very much. ”
Li Sen praised this, and Granny Ma's expression was calm, still just smiling. Elder Duan shook his head again and again, revealing a look of shame. In contrast, Elder Wu had a cold old face, still looking around cautiously, and didn't seem to have any interest in composing poetry.
Only Nan Xin was the most cheerful, she looked at the scenery of the Qin Garden back and forth, leaned against Li Sen's side, and said with curiosity on her face: "Master, this Qin Garden is the largest garden we have seen since we traveled all the way. I just don't know what the test here will be. ”
"Although there is a mirror lake of considerable scale in the piano garden, there are no pavilions here, only a bamboo forest that is quite lush and cannot see what is inside. Between me, the mystery of this piano garden is probably still in this bamboo forest. Li Sen said as he looked towards the bamboo forest.
"Then what are we waiting for, let's go into the bamboo forest and find out!" Nan Xin said with a smile.
"There's no hurry. ”
Li Sen stretched out his hand to stop Nan Xin's actions, then glanced towards the entrance, and then said pointedly: "This action, if it is really a test of musical skills, I am afraid that some elders are not competent. If you force yourself to stay here, you may be in danger. Therefore, before the entrance is sealed, if any elder is unwilling to take risks, he can leave the Qin Garden early. lest there be any unforeseen danger. ”
Hearing this, those Miao Jiang elders couldn't help but glance at each other.
For these people, if they fight and fight with their lives, they all have their own means. But if it is a simple test of musical techniques, they are just the second monk who is confused, and there is nothing to be done.
As Li Sen said, if the topic that appears this time is to test the musical attainments of all the members, I am afraid that these people will not be able to clear the level at all, and they will be trapped here for a long time after that.
Therefore, Li Sen's words are not unreasonable.
It's just that they've already arrived here, and if they retreat again, won't they look too bad on their faces?
For a while, after these Miao Jiang looked at each other, they all showed hesitation.
In the end, it was Elder Duan who spoke: "Except for Li Daoyou, Elder Ma, Elder Wu, Nan Xin, and me, everyone else should withdraw from the garden! Moreover, in this way, if there is any danger to me and a few others, you can also find a way to rescue them. ”
I have to say that Elder Duan's prestige among these Miao Jiang elders is still very high. As soon as he opened his mouth, the five middle-aged Miao Jiang elders agreed with their fists in their hands, and then immediately left the Qin Garden without saying a word, and returned to stand in the corridor.
After these people had left the Qin Garden, Elder Duan bowed his hand to Li Sen and said, "Li Daoyou, please." ”
"Elder Duan is polite, please. ”
Li Sen smiled slightly, and then took the lead towards the bamboo forest with one step.
No, Li Sen, Nan Xin and others have all entered the bamboo forest.
After entering the bamboo forest, there is a faintly recognizable bamboo forest path at your feet, and the road becomes narrower and darker along the path.
Not long ago, in the depths of a bamboo forest not far ahead, a small white stele appeared with four small characters engraved on it.
Li Sen, Nan Xin and others looked at it, and saw that there were four delicate and handsome small letters engraved on it, which were the four characters of 'winding path through secluded'.
When Li Sen and the others came to the front of this white stele, another breeze blew on the left, and everyone looked back again, and suddenly found that there was a very open space there.
Looking inside, there are several stone platforms on top of the clearing, on which are placed several elegantly shaped musical instruments.
Seeing this scene, Li Sen and the others couldn't help but move, and then they hurriedly came to this clearing.
"Bells, drums, chimes, pianos, flutes. ”
When Nan Xin saw the musical instruments in the clearing, he couldn't help but report the names of these instruments with red lips.
Granny Ma came directly to the front of a stone platform, and then grabbed one of the musical instruments with a raised hand.
If you look closely, it is a hole flute with a whole body of turquoise and like a green bamboo!
Granny Ma took this flute in her hand, slowly looked left and right, and after a while, there was a hint of joy on her face.
"It's a good flute. ”
Elder Duan obviously knew a little about musical instruments, he came to the front of the piano platform, glanced at the piano a few times, and then nodded slightly.
"The shape is quaint and the materials are exquisite. Although it is not a spiritual weapon, if it is placed in the secular world, any of them is probably the best of the best, and it can be called a priceless treasure. ”
