Chapter 388

Chang'an Olympic Sports Center.

In the corner of the main stage at Zhang Xueyou's God of Songs concert.

Reba sat on the VIP sofa.

Her small body was rigidly straight, more attentive than a primary school student in the headteacher's class.

Although the small coffee table before her

Had sunflower seeds, drinks, mineral water, sliced meats, peanuts, popcorn—all of it.

But Reba dared not touch a single thing~

Onstage, the Qin opera troupe was singing with full passion.

You must listen carefully!

Feeling that even cracking open one sunflower seed

Would be an act of disrespect toward China's thousand-year-old Qin opera!

Most importantly!

Qin Feng's next lyrics seemed to shout out and make Zhang Xueyou's concert perfectly fit this city of Chang'an! A song exclusive to this city!

Naturally, the audience below erupted in excitement!

Zhang Xueyou's emotions were also soaring!

He never imagined he'd experience Qin Feng's new musical style!

Qin opera old tune + rock style!

For the God of Songs, this was an entirely unexplored territory!

Following Qin Feng's lyrics,

Zhang Xueyou sang next:

"At the ten-li pavilion street, I part from you—"

"Distant lanterns flicker and fade—"

"Yellowed memories, fresh illusions,

"The story has already been rewritten!"

"Right here! A promise from a past life!"

"Right here! Dreams begin to take flight!"

Then!

The entire stage joined in chorus:

"Melt my emotion, sealed for a thousand years—"

"My heart, in reincarnation, will no longer be incomplete—"

"Who interprets your ancient rhymes!"

Ye ye ye ye ye, An an an an de, Chang chang chang chang wo

The first three words, "Chang'an Night," were Qin opera old tune.

Again, the Qin opera troupe led the singing.

The latter half of the lyrics were sung in duet by Qin Feng and Zhang Xueyou.

Although!

Among the sixty thousand listeners, none had heard this song before.

But as the melody progressed,

In the second verse,

Every time they sang "Chang'an Night,"

Above the Olympic Sports Center,

Echoed the thunderous chorus of sixty thousand voices shaking heaven and earth!

On the main stage screen of Zhang Xueyou's concert,

A subtitle was displayed:

【Qin opera】 originated in the Qin dynasty, refined in the Han, flourished in the Tang, completed in the Yuan, matured in the Ming, spread in the Qing, evolved through centuries, and became a grand spectacle!

As a foundational-level Chinese opera,

Even the veteran artists invited to the concert

Had never imagined

That this ancient, sorrowful opera style

Would one day be resurrected by a young man, in such an innovative way,

And once again resound through the skies of the thirteen-dynasty ancient capital!

Reba's skin prickled with goosebumps from her boyfriend's song.

She had never felt this way before!

Throughout the entire "Chang'an Night,"

She was the only audience member who had been closest in proximity

To observe the Qin opera troupe's performance state.

Especially when she saw those uncles and elders of the Qin opera troupe, utterly immersed.

They weren't just singing a song.

They weren't just singing about a place, a night.

It was more than just a place, more than just a single night.

Instead, it goes against the current of the river of time, as if using sound to string together the starry sky and night of past and present!

Reba looked up at the bright moon on the dome of the Olympic Sports Center.

What came to mind was:

The people of today do not see the moon of ancient times, yet the moon of today once shone on the people of old.

The people of old and the people of today are like flowing water; all who gaze upon the bright moon are the same.

May it be that when we raise our cups in song, the moonlight forever shines within our golden goblets!

A sentiment that arose on the spur of the moment.

Perhaps that is the reason she got goosebumps!

In short~

She really wants to have a couple of drinks with Qin Feng right now! Really, really want to~

On the stage!

The three words "Chang'an Night" had been sung in chorus, looped several times over!

It nearly shouted Zhang Xueyou's voice hoarse~

The emotion had arrived.

The veins were about to burst~

Although he is the God of Songs, time waits for no one.

Brother Wu Ying has grown old too, QAQ!

Even though it was also a sixty-thousand-person grand chorus!

But the earlier "Common Jasmine Orange" had focused on a warm love-song chorus.

Relatively warmer~

But now this song "Chang'an Night" is all about grandeur and momentum!
