268. The wind of the rolling shutter, the piano boat will never meet in the painting

When Cheng Tianle came to his senses, the black-sailed boat and the girl playing the piano on the boat had disappeared, but the sound of the piano seemed to still linger in his ears, just like sighs and low singing that had traveled through thousands of years had not stopped. Cheng Tianle's feeling could no longer be described as shock. It was just a moment before, and he didn't think about anything, and he could only savor it carefully at this moment.

In the spiritual sense just now, the girl playing the piano, the sound of the strings and the aura and movement of the Gusu painting, was completely integrated. What kind of cultivation level is this? The guqin she played is a real antique, and it is an exquisite work of art. Cheng Tianle couldn't tell which dynasty it was, but it should have been at least hundreds of years!

Whether inside or outside the painting, he has visited Suzhou City many times, especially in the world of paintings. He has walked this Shantang Street many times. How could such a woman appear and hear such a piano sound?

...

After exiting the state of painting and returning to the real world, Cheng Tianle was still as conscious as standing by a mountain pond and river for a long time. He held the scroll in his hand and was not thinking about anything. It seemed like he was in an indescribable state of suddenness, and there seemed to be the sound of the piano lingering in his ears.

Suddenly a voice interrupted his trance, and only the "rat" shouted: "Zheng Tianle, have you come out of the painting? Why is it still like in the painting? What did you see just now with such an expression?"

Cheng Tianle put down the scroll and breathed a sigh of relief: "I saw a black-sailed boat sailing through the mountain pond and the wind blew the curtains. A girl playing the guqin was sitting in the boat. It was a natural sound! I couldn't imagine that this person could play a modern song with such a meaning, and almost even my soul transformed into the sound of the piano. The girl's breath was obviously different, but I didn't know what kind of cultivation it was... Mouse, have you never seen that girl in the scroll?"

"Rat": "What girl? There are so many girls in the scroll!"

Cheng Tianle: "I've been talking for a long time, you haven't listened? It's just a girl wearing ancient costume playing the guqin. As long as you have seen it, you should know who I'm talking about."

"Rat" shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it before, but I know what you are talking about is definitely not a stream!...Hi, there are many photo studios on Shantang Street, and shops specializing in selling and renting ancient costumes. You can often see girls taking photos in ancient costumes, but you haven't seen them!... There is also a Pingtan Pavilion on Shantang Bridge, which houses various musical instruments, and there are teahouses on the second floor. You are not unaware of them playing and singing every day! Why are you so fussy?"

Cheng Tianle shook her head and said, "It's different, it's completely different. You haven't seen me before and I can't describe it to you. She is like a person who came out of the painting environment."

"Rat": "Did you be crazy about seeing other girls look beautiful? Don't forget that you are the one who has entered the painting environment!"

Cheng Tianle smiled bitterly and said, "I am a slutty flower? I didn't see the girl very clearly, but she was indeed very beautiful and very beautiful! I just described it. But I didn't have any ideas."

"Rat": "Tsk! You have betrayed you just now. Is this the legendary stunning? Do you dare to bet with me - you want to see that girl again in the painting?"

Cheng Tianle touched his nose with his hand and covered his lips, saying, "I dare not, because I do want to see her again, listen to the sound of the piano."

"Rat": "I don't know you yet, it's true that this is true!...Aren't you reunited with Su Fu in the world in the painting? You should have gotten better, why did you think about this again?"

Cheng Tianle glared and said, "What am I thinking? What's wrong with looking at the girl! Will you become a hooligan after looking at her?"

...

Su Fu has not been in Suzhou these days, and Cheng Tianle has entered the world of paintings and always unconsciously walked to Shantang Street. He walked back and forth along the Qili Shantang River, always looking like he was suddenly in a daze and didn't know what he was thinking. When he left the world of paintings and came back to his senses, he realized that he wanted to hear the sound of the piano again and see the person playing the piano.

But that boat, that girl, that guqin, and that music never appeared again. A few days later, Cheng Tianle finally put away the scroll in the real world and said to the "rat": "Let's go out and have a stroll."

"Rat" asked in surprise: "Are you not imitating the painting today?"

Cheng Tianle replied: "There is Suzhou in the painting, and Suzhou outside the painting. When practicing the soul and practicing the shape, it is naturally better to be the real world. We are too addicted to the painting environment. Suzhou is just outside the door, so why should we stay at home every day?"

"Rat" nodded and said, "Well, that's true, but the world in the painting is more fun!... It's time to go out for a walk. Where are we going and watch the streets?"

Cheng Tianle: "No, go to a better place, Shantang Street."

"Mouse": "Go to Shantang Street again! You obviously want to find someone. Are you not found in the painting and just thinking about trying your luck outside the painting?"

"Rat" really understands Cheng Tianle. That's what Cheng Tianle thinks. The world in the painting is very strange, not an illusion, not a demonic state, nor a false state, but a transformation state - a derivation state. It is a state of derivation and change state. It is an unexpected factor of Cheng Tianle that walks outside the painting at a certain point in time, thus causing subtle changes in the painting state that complements the real world.

Compared with the real world, it may also be a kind of illusion because what happened does not exist; it may also be a kind of demonic realm, which will also be hurt in the world in the painting, thus hurting the body and spirit; it may also be similar to a kind of illusion because it is realized that the world in the painting will not affect the reality, and some people may do things that they will not do in the real world at all.

But these are just symbols of transformation, which makes the world in the painting have certain characteristics similar to illusion, demonic, and false realms, but it is still just a transformation realm. Although Cheng Tianle still does not understand the subtleties of these, he already understands what kind of world is in the painting. The person in the painting does not appear out of thin air. Since he saw the girl in the painting, if he is lucky, he should have the chance to encounter it outside the painting.

However, his luck today was not very good. He walked two round trips on Qilishantang Street, walking distance of more than fifteen kilometers, but still did not find the girl, and he didn't even see such a black-sailed boat. Cheng Tianle carefully recalled the scene when he saw her at that time. The girl was sitting in the boat, and no one rowed the oars behind the boat.

Most of the privately contracted tourist boats on the Shantang River are now equipped with diesel engines, and there is no need to row and paddle. Just sit in the cabin and take the helm. Therefore, if a black-sailed boat passes by, it will not attract special attention. But Cheng Tianle senses it very clearly that the wooden boat is not equipped with an engine at all, which means it floats across the Shantang River by itself with the sound of the piano, which is too strange!

Unless it is driven by magic power, no boat will be powerless, and it will never be drifting with the water. But he did not sense the fluctuations of spell casting in the scroll world. The rhythm of the piano sound seems to be one with the Susu in the scroll. In the real world outside the painting, Cheng Tianle could not find such a boat at all on the mountain pond river in Suzhou.

After walking back and forth twice, I was sure that every boat on the river could see clearly. Cheng Tianle left Shantang Street helplessly. He did not go back to the courtyard, but went to a tea room to drink tea and listen to the piano. There was the place where Nangong Yue once learned piano, and the place where he and Xiao Su had dated in the real world.

Nangong Yue has now moved to Tongli with Bi Ran. In the real world, Su Fu could not have accompanied Cheng Tianle to have tea at this time. Cheng Tianle ordered a pot of Phoenix Danchun and sat down alone, diagonally opposite the position of the owner of the tea room playing piano. Zhen Shirui still looks so graceful. Since last time I saw her, it seems that she has not even changed her sitting posture. There are not many guests in the tea room, and Zhen Shirui is playing the guqin. It is a song "Spring River Flower Moon Night", and Cheng Tianle listens quietly.

The sound of the piano is elegant, but it is different from the sound of the piano you hear in the scroll. When Zhen Shirui finished playing a song and sat there drinking tea, Cheng Tianle walked over and asked, "Hello, is it Boss Zhen? My name is Cheng Tianle, and I am Nangong Yue's friend."

Zhen Shirui nodded gracefully and said, "I am Zhen Shirui. I often heard Nangong mention you, but I didn't expect to see you a long time ago... Mr. Cheng hasn't been here for a long time, why did he suddenly have a good mood today?"

Cheng Tianle was slightly surprised and thought to himself that this boss Zhen is really a memory. He has only been here twice or three times, and it has been a year and a half ago. He asked in surprise: "Do you actually remember me?"

Zhen Shirui smiled slightly: "I noticed it when you were drinking tea and recognized it. There are all kinds of guests here, some come to drink tea, some come to listen to the piano, some come to date, and some come to other purposes. But the way of drinking tea is different, and the way of listening to the piano is different. Some people are for showing style, some people are for looking for mood, some people are for filling elegance, and some people think the environment here is good."

Cheng Tianle also smiled: "Who does Boss Zhen think I am? Why did he notice me?"

Zhen Shirui: "Mr. Cheng has been here to wait for someone, and has made an appointment here, but today I am here to listen to the piano. I rarely see anyone listening to the piano like you do today, as if they melt their minds into the sound of the piano. Even when I play the piano, I can feel that you are the only one who is really listening in the tea room."

Cheng Tianle: "That's the mysterious sound of Boss Zhen's piano. I was fascinated by it!... Actually, I wanted to ask you something today. I heard from Nangong Yue that you are very accomplished in the guqin. What kind of piano is this?" He took out a piece of paper and opened it on the guqin table. On it, he saw the guqin played by the girl in the world of painting. The shocking glance that was imprinted into the depths of his mind. Afterwards, Cheng Tianle tried his best to describe the details of this guqin based on his memory.
