Invasion Myth: Starting with the Schoolteacher

Chapter 273 The goddess scatters flowers
"Professor Shi, Ning's emotional knot is difficult to untie, what do you think?"

Professor Shi sighed. Memories are always beautiful. This student is so immersed in the past that he can't get out of it. He becomes more and more obsessed with playing any piece of music, and in the end, he will only destroy himself.

So he took the pipa, and after a couple of casual strums, he already knew it by heart.

Then he started by unleashing his most prized piece, "Yangchun Baixue".

With a gentle touch on the strings, one's spirit merges with the universe, and skill approaches the Tao!
The feeling of spring breaking through the ice flowed into everyone's hearts along with the musical notes, melting away all the previous feelings of loneliness and depression.

Warmth rose from the mountains, rivers, buildings, flowers, birds, fish, and insects, and from everyone's heart, and was then sent into Ning Caichen's heart.

Sometimes melodious and gentle, sometimes passionate and soaring, like pine and cypress trees standing tall and unyielding under a blanket of snow.

Everything comes back to life, birds sing and flowers bloom. The power of life should always be moving forward.

Just as Xu Xuan enlightened Zao's classmate with righteousness at the Ge family, Professor Shi is doing the same thing.

For an ordinary person, this is an incredible stroke of luck.

Ning, sensing the power of warmth, gradually emerged and joined Professor Shi's melody.

The duet between master and student was so captivating that it left the audience mesmerized.

Xu Xuan sighed, surprised that he hadn't felt the same things from the Pipa Ballad in the young lady, but he did feel them in the music of the two men.

As the last notes faded, everyone felt a sense of loss.

Then they would frantically dance their bodies and make strange noises to express their emotions.

Modern people don't need to go through all that trouble; they can simply contort their limbs and yell "Fuck!"

People in Chongqi may be used to hearing it, but very few people outside the area can actually hear this piece.

The troupe leader wished he could kowtow to the old gentleman immediately; the Qingyin Troupe had definitely struck gold today.

The former Grand Chancellor was a master among masters who played music for His Majesty, and also a ruthless man who frightened the emperor into hiding in a corner.

How could any of you here possibly listen to this without being harmed?

At the same time, Ning Caichen also became very famous, and everyone knew that his future was limitless.

Inside the attic, the young lady's eyes were practically glued to the screen as she kept calling out to Young Master Ning.

Talented men and beautiful women are a perfect match.

Ji Rui looked at the scene before him and felt a little flustered. "I spent the money... and they have no professional ethics at all."

I almost took off my hat on the spot to show everyone how remarkable I am. I'm not an ordinary person, you know.

Ning, however, continued to push away the women who were getting too close, completely absorbed in the enhancement of his musical heart.

Zao stepped forward to protect his friend, urging him not to waste his insights.

Along the way, two of the three have made great progress, which Ji is quite envious of.

The governor of Xunyang upstairs suddenly had a brilliant idea to win over Chongqi Academy.

That is to bet on young students.

Especially young people who are not from aristocratic families but are destined for a bright future.

"I have a close friend who is now the Imperial Censor, named Fu Tianchou. He also comes from a humble background, is upright and incorruptible, and his integrity has been praised by Yu Gong several times."

It just so happens that his eldest daughter is sixteen years old and of marriageable age. If they are interested, I can write a letter and arrange for the two young people to get married.

Xu Xuan politely declined when he heard that the person was trying to find a match for his student.

Given Ning Caichen's temperament, he would most likely refuse outright. Xiaoqian is the white moonlight he can never have, and no living person can compare to her.

Arranged marriages by parents and matchmakers are considered reactionary plots in the eyes of the protagonists, and will only create rifts between the two sides.

If they are destined to meet, they will meet again. The music performance is temporarily over; now it's time to appreciate the painting.

The story of monks selling paintings has spread in Xunyang, and it's quite an interesting anecdote.

Xu Xuan sat up straight, somewhat curious. "Goddess Painting?"

He had only seen erotic pictures, and then his life began with those pictures.

We'll naturally be more vigilant if this kind of thing reappears.

The troupe leader first presented other precious paintings as a prelude, all by renowned artists, which drew admiration from the audience. Only then did he carefully take out a scroll and unfold it.

Those who were interested had already gone downstairs to get a closer look.

As the scroll is unfurled, a painting titled "Celestial Maiden Scattering Flowers" is revealed before you.

Her hair was styled in a high bun, her cherry lips seemed about to move, and her eyes were about to sparkle. Her figure was full yet graceful, she smiled while holding a flower, wearing a long, wide-sleeved dress adorned with cloud-shaped patterns, and standing on exotic flowers. The painting on the paper swayed in the river breeze, giving it a lifelike quality.

"What a beautiful painting of a goddess! Her eyes shone with divine light; she truly possessed the bearing of a celestial being."

"The cloud pattern of Chu region, that flower looks like a peony, but I can't tell which god it is."

"The brushstrokes are simple and unadorned, and the techniques and pigments are more like those used in mural rubbings."

There are many cultured people here, so their appreciation skills are naturally excellent; you can pick anyone and they can say three or four points about it.

At this moment, someone said, "It may be unremarkable, but it can hardly be called a rare object."

The troupe leader remained unmoved. He had traveled all over the country for many years, and his eyes had never missed a thing.

It is certainly worth the money to buy this item for ten gold coins.

"This painting can bewitch the mind and spirit, but it should not be looked at for too long."

Shouldn't you look at it for too long? Sure enough, the next moment...

"Hey!" "She moved!" "She's smiling at me!" "How is that possible?!" "So beautiful!"

The mystery of this painting lies in the fact that Zhu stared at it for a long time, and before he knew it, his mind was captivated and he was lost in thought.

The gasps of surprise grew increasingly eerie, drawing even those who weren't initially interested in taking a look. They became so engrossed that they stood frozen in place.

Xie Yu was also moved upon seeing it. He came from a wealthy family and had seen countless beautiful women, but even the concubines in the imperial palace were not as beautiful as depicted in the painting, and the woman seemed to be constantly becoming more beautiful.

I immediately gripped my arm with great willpower and forced myself away from the temptation through the pain.

Qian Zhongyu, on the other hand, saw the person who had been with her since childhood, but who had married someone else three years prior.
He knew there was something strange about the painting, but he just wanted to look at it more and more until he became obsessed.

Qiao Feng saw Lian Cheng calling him, but initially, this did not move the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

But the painting was becoming increasingly strange, its allure growing stronger. Liancheng's figure was becoming more and more exaggerated, and the style of the painting was becoming more and more erotic, even more unspeakable than the secret manual given to him by his father-in-law.

Suddenly, her blood rushed to her head. After all, she had only been married for less than a year, and the taste of new experiences was putting her to the test.

In the end, Xie Yu helped him and Qian get out of trouble. The two looked at each other and felt ashamed.

I'm definitely not as good as others at cultivating inner peace and calming the mind.

At first glance, Zao Tongxue thought the other party was also about to transform into some kind of form, but it was overwhelmed by the righteous energy of "Loyal Heart and Loyal Soul" and obediently lay dormant like an ordinary painting.

Ning Caichen was already crying and wailing over Xiaoqian, in a state of emotional breakdown.

Upon closer inspection, Ning's eyes seemed to be looking through the painting, and she was crying for Xiaoqian in her heart.

Although I have difficulty getting over emotional turmoil, I will not become obsessed with such eerie paintings.
