Chapter 97 The Man Zi Nu Fears Most
Yang Chong was listening to Nong Yu's playing. The Book of Songs had been selected by Confucius, the founder of Confucianism. The chapters that had been passed down not only had artistic value, but also had another characteristic, which was that they were easy to spread. Therefore, the subjects adapted from the Book of Songs were not difficult, at least in Yang Chong's opinion.

Moreover, Yang Chong already knew some fingering techniques, and by analogy, he had already developed his own understanding of the fingering techniques in the zither technique. When the song of Nongyu ended, although Yang Chong did not remember most of the fingering changes, he had already mastered the basic fingering techniques in the zither technique. The next thing he had to do was to adjust the use of fingering according to the music.

"Has Lord Yang taken note of it?" Nanyue withdrew her hands from the strings and folded them in front of her.

"I remembered roughly half of it, but I did remember the basic fingering changes." Yang Chong replied.

Nanyue looked at Yang Chong and saw that he did not seem to be lying. She also wanted to test Yang Chong, so she said, "Knowing is only the first step, and applying is the second step. Sir Yang might as well try it with my zither, and maybe you can master it better."

"Thank you very much, Miss Nongyu." Yang Chong walked forward and sat opposite Nongyu across the table.

When Yang Chonggui sat down, Nongyu realized that she was wrong. The piano table was not big, and the distance between them was too close. Seeing this, Nongyu could only tense her mind, because her calves folded under her buttocks were already tense because of her kneeling sitting. As long as Yang Chong made any excessive move, Nongyu would jump away. The women in Zilanxuan had all been taught some martial arts by Zinu, and Nongyu was the best among them.

Yang Chong adjusted the seven-stringed zither in front of him towards himself and stretched out his hand. As his fingers plucked the zither, intermittent notes flowed from between his fingers. The music was very rough and not pleasant to listen to, but it made Nong Yu let down her guard a little.

Now Nanyue is certain that Yang Chong’s previous words were not a lie.

However, Nanyue soon discovered that what Yang Chong said was not entirely true. Yang Chong said that he only remembered half of it, but in fact, Yang Chong had already remembered two-thirds of it, and only the last part of the recording was not mastered.

Nanyue looked at Yang Chong's hand caressing the strings. Could he still play? Probably not. He had already been very reluctant just now. It was impossible for him to play any more.

But the next moment, Yang Chong's action was beyond Nongyu's expectations. Yang Chong was really able to continue playing, but this time he had changed the tune, a tune that Nongyu had never even heard of.

Of course, Nong Yu had never heard of it. Not only Nong Yu, but no one in the world had ever heard the music that Yang Chong was playing at that time, because it was called "Fuxi Divine Heavenly Sound", which was the pinnacle of the art of playing the music from another world.

After mastering the fingering, Yang Chong began to try to practice Fuxi Shentian Xiang. Different from the Book of Songs played by Nong Yu, the complete music of Fuxi Shentian Xiang was in Yang Chong's memory, so there was no major problem in playing it except for some intermittent performances.

But this intermittent sound became something else in Nanyue's ears.

Nong Yu was the best zither player in Zi Lan Xuan, and even in the whole of Korea. The Fuxi Shen Tian Xiang played by Yang Chong at this time might be just a new piece of music that others had never heard of before, but in Nong Yu's ears, she could hear something else.

This is a true sound of heaven and earth.

As the notes of Fuxi's divine music echoed in the room, Nongyu's face changed. Shock replaced vigilance, and gradually the shock disappeared, leaving only intoxication.

Yang Chong played the piano intermittently, but suddenly he felt a pain in his fingertips, which was enough to break weapons. The fingertips that could pierce metal and stone were cut by the strings.

The pain in her fingertips caused the music in the room to stop abruptly, and Nongyu suddenly woke up, unable to help but feel a palpitation. Just now, she had let down all her defenses, and she would only be like this with the sister she trusted the most.

"It's not that easy after all!" Yang Chong wiped the blood from his fingertips and had a preliminary assessment of Fuxi Shentian Xiang.

It is true. The martial arts I master now are the result of the fusion of the six inheritances of Emperor Yan in this world and the martial arts in my own memory. While carrying its own attributes, it also integrates the characteristics of the martial arts in this world, from the Nine Yin Scriptures which focuses on the Yin and Yang meridians, to the Qi Sucking Method which focuses on the belt meridian, and now to the Fuxi Shentian Xiang, a martial arts that focuses on the Ren meridian.

The Ren Meridian runs along the midline of the abdomen. Its meridians intersect with the three Yin meridians of the hands and feet and the Yinwei Meridian many times. It can connect all the Yin meridians of the body, so it is called the "Sea of ​​Yin Meridians". As long as it is opened up, you can be promoted to a first-class master.

More importantly, in this world, there is no martial art that directly focuses on the Ren meridian. Although all martial arts schools involve the cultivation of the eight extraordinary meridians, the main cultivation is always only one or two of the Ren and Du meridians. The Ren and Du meridians can only be opened when at least one of the six meridians is cultivated to the limit, but opening them up is not the main cultivation. Fuxi Shentianxiang, on the other hand, focuses on the Ren meridian.

"The music played by Lord Yang doesn't seem to be included in the general list of music?" Nanyue's curiosity interrupted Yang Chong's thoughts.

"No, it doesn't belong to this world." Yang Chong came back to his senses.

Not from this world? Could it be a piece of music from another world? Nongyu was speechless, but she couldn't ask such questions. She just thought Yang Chong didn't want to say too much.

"It seems that if I don't master the piano skills, I won't be able to play the complete Fuxi Shen Tian Xiang. Miss Nanyue, please teach me the Book of Songs again." Yang Chong asked Nanyue.

So it's called Fuxi Shentianxiang? Nanyue wrote down the name and nodded to Yang Chong.

……

"Sister, something is wrong!" On the fourth floor, Caidie said to Zinu with a worried look on her face.

"What's wrong?" Zi Nu, who was counting the accounts, raised her head and asked.

"It has been two hours since Nanyue entered the room, and she hasn't come out yet. This is very abnormal." Caidie said.

Nongyu was a zither player, and apart from playing the zither, she didn't need to entertain guests. But now it had been two hours since Nongyu entered that room, but she had no intention of coming out. This was very intriguing, especially since Nongyu had never stayed in any guest's box for two hours.

"What are you worried about?" Zi Nu asked.

"I'm worried about Nanyue, sister. Aren't you at ease? She is a weird man. He won't do anything excessive to her, right?" Caidie said worriedly.

But Zi Nu was unmoved and said, "Don't worry, he is just weird, not bad. Besides, don't underestimate Nong Yu, she is smarter than you."

"But..." Caidie was still worried.

"Okay, I'll go take a look." After checking the accounts, Zi Nu's heart moved slightly. She now wanted to meet Yang Chong. What kind of person is this that Wei Zhuang regards as an opponent? Zi Nu was very curious. She didn't believe that Yang Chong was really like what she saw at the riverside last time. That bold and shy country boy was definitely not Yang Chong's true face.

What kind of changes would such a person suddenly bring to Xinzheng? "Sister, I'll go with you." Caidie said hurriedly.

Zi Nu and Cai Die quickly went down from the fourth floor and arrived at the third floor. Zi Nu even asked Cai Die to bring a pot of fine wine. Since they made a sudden visit, they naturally had to find a reason.

As the door was knocked, a "come in" sound was heard from inside the room. Zi Nu then pushed the door open and walked in. The scene in the room soon appeared in Zi Nu's sight.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Zi Nu's purple pupils couldn't help but condense. What did she see? She saw Nanyue and Yang Chong sitting opposite each other, with only a musical table and a musical instrument in front of them. Such a distance?

Especially since the zither was in Yang Chong's hands at this time, and Zi Nu knew how much Nanyue cherished her zither. If it wasn't someone Nanyue truly trusted, she would not let anyone else touch it.

But now she saw Yang Chong's fingers plucking the strings unconsciously. Is this what happened?

"It's you?" While Zi Nu was shocked, Yang Chong showed a look of surprise.

"It's me. I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon." Zi Nu suppressed her shock and said with a smile.

"A little slow, a little slow. I have been looking forward to this day for a long time." Yang Chong stood up and said.

Have you been looking forward to it for a long time? Zi Nu's expression froze when she heard this. Why did Yang Chong look forward to this day? She thought of what Yang Chong said to her by the river.

Zi Nu knew how attractive her beauty was to men. There were many people eyeing her, and Zi Nu was no longer surprised by this. However, this was the first time she had seen someone take the initiative to express his love to her so directly.

Especially, in her eyes, Yang Chong was just a peculiar country youth before, but she learned from Wei Zhuang that Yang Chong himself was a big lunatic. What would such a lunatic who had expressed his love to her do? Zi Nu couldn't help but panic when she thought of this. She, who had always been calm, was really scared at this moment.

Just when Zi Nu was feeling a little regretful about her recklessness today, Yang Chong had already stood up and walked towards her.

"So your name is Zi Nu, and you're the boss here. I knew I had a good eye." Yang Chong looked at Zi Nu in front of him. She had a small face as big as a palm, and her figure was ripe under the purple waist-baring skirt, especially her narrow waist, which showed shallow dimples as she moved up and down. She was unique.

Good taste? Why do you think he has good taste? Isn't it because he wants to marry her into the family? The heat in Yang Chong's eyes made Zi Nu a little overwhelmed. She could only reach out and lift up a strand of purple hair that fell on her forehead.

"Today I heard that the general recommended a person to the king. I never thought it was you. I would like to congratulate you here." After a moment of panic, Zi Nu regained her composure.

"Those are not important. I'm just a gatekeeper. I came to Xinzheng for only one purpose." Yang Chong looked at Zi Nu with burning eyes. The woman in front of him was too smart. Ordinary methods would hardly work on her, but a random punch could kill a master, and this was the method Yang Chong was using now.

Yang Chong once told Yan Lingji that he came to Xinzheng to get money, people and trouble. The money he mentioned was the 100,000 taels of gold from the ghost soldiers' robbery case. Although there were a lot of people, the most important one among them was Zi Nu. Zi Nu, who was extremely intelligent and good at management, was exactly the talent Yang Chong needed. As for causing trouble, when he was getting money and people, he was actually causing trouble.

Zi Nu didn't dare to respond to Yang Chong's words, but Cai Die didn't know. She just asked stupidly, "What's the purpose?"

Caidie's cooperation made Yang Chong have a good impression of her. Just because of her assist to him at this time, Yang Chong decided that if Caidie was still defeated by Luowang in the future, he would definitely help her.

"It's for Miss Zinu. The power of Xinzheng is the most false existence in the world and can be destroyed at any time. But you, Zinu, are different. Your beauty is eternal to me." Yang Chong looked at Zinu intently. At this moment, there was only Zinu in front of him in his eyes.

Under Yang Chong's gaze, Zi Nu's pretty face blushed slightly. Even if she was facing a sex-hungry man, she could handle it calmly, but in the face of Yang Chong's naked display of love, she couldn't handle it.

"Lord Yang, you're joking. With your ability, you can get any beauty you want. Why do you have to set your sights on me?" Zi Nu said calmly.

"It's different, it's different. I said, you decorated my dreams." Yang Chong repeatedly denied Zi Nu's statement.

"But you are not my dream, Lord Yang. You have a bright future, so why waste your time on me." Zi Nu said helplessly. She regretted it now. She should not have come here. She would rather deal with ten or a hundred most difficult guests than face Yang Chong like this in front of her.

"This is not a waste of time. Time is not wasted as long as it is used on meaningful things, and Miss Zi Nu is my meaning." Yang Chong was only stubborn at this time, a stubbornness that Zi Nu could do nothing about.

"But I don't like you." Zi Nu said helplessly.

"Do I really have no chance at all?" Yang Chong said disappointedly, his face ashen.

"No, I won't fall in love with any man." Zi Nu's face was firm. At this moment, she knew that she had to break Yang Chong's mind on her. She had a premonition that once she was entangled with Yang Chong, there would be endless troubles in the future. Yang Chong was a dangerous person to her, and even more a dangerous man.

"Is that so?" Yang Chong murmured to himself, seeming to have been shattered by the blow.

"That's right." Zi Nu was unmoved. It had nothing to do with her whether Yang Chong was sad or not!

"That's really a pity." Yang Chong said sadly.

Just when Zi Nu thought she was going to give up, Yang Chong's expression changed, and sadness turned into determination: "But I won't give up, I will definitely try my best to make Miss Zi Nu accept me."

"Oh..." Zi Nu, who thought she had dealt with Yang Chong, was now completely stunned. The calmness she had just shown froze on her face.

"Miss Zi Nu, don't worry. I won't do anything to upset you." Just when Zi Nu was helpless, Yang Chong took the initiative.

"It's up to you." Zi Nu waved her hands weakly. She shouldn't have appeared in front of Yang Chong tonight.
