Chapter 351 We Still Have More Than _1

As Yin Tian’s hands began to dance, the sound of plinking and plonking continually echoed within the exhibition hall.

The piece Yin Tian played was very soothing and pleasant to the ear, yet there wasn’t a single person who had heard this melody before.

Even the eldest senior brother furrowed his brows, unsure of what piece Yin Tian was playing. He even doubted whether the piece was an original composition by Yin Tian himself.

Having studied the zither for nearly twenty years, he prided himself on knowing all the famous pieces, but he simply could not recognize the piece Yin Tian was playing.

Just then, Yin Tian’s hands began to quicken.

The tune also changed accordingly.

Plink plink plonk plonk...

Everyone closed their eyes, listening quietly.

The eldest senior brother also closed his eyes.

Although his eyes were closed, before him seemed to appear mountains, streams, bamboo forests...

All were completely captivated by Yin Tian’s zither music, even entering the artistic conception of the melody he was playing!

Only in a high mountain and flowing water can one find a true friend; in colorful clouds chasing the moon, a kindred spirit!

The eldest senior brother’s body began to shake.

He forcibly opened his eyes, struggling to pull himself out of that artistic conception and looked at Yin Tian in disbelief.

"Guangling San?"

The eldest senior brother’s voice trembled, his eyes full of shock.

This piece had many similarities to the piece he had learned, "High Mountain Flowing Water Finds a True Friend."

But it was more pleasant to the ear and also more complex than the piece he had learned.

And "High Mountain Flowing Water Finds a True Friend" was none other than derived from "Guangling San"!

The eldest senior brother could confirm with certainty that what Yin Tian was playing was the legendary "Guangling San" that had been passed down through the ages!

Only, he did not know that "Guangling San" had been lost along with Bo Ya’s death as early as during the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period.

The later "High Mountain Flowing Water Finds a True Friend" was simply a creation by later generations who had significantly altered it based on their interpretation of the version they had heard.

From where had Yin Tian obtained this complete "Guangling San"?

However, very soon, the eldest senior brother closed his eyes once more, listening to the piece Yin Tian was playing.

For him, it was a rare encounter.

If he could gain insight within the sound of Yin Tian’s zither, it would also be of great help to his own zither skills!

After a short while, the piece was over, and Yin Tian’s melody should have ended, but he did the opposite, seamlessly transitioning from one piece to another!

Clang!

Metal horse and iron soldiers, the clanging of swords!

All the people in the exhibition hall shuddered, as if they had entered a battlefield, surrounded by countless soldiers fighting with all their might!

The eldest senior brother, who had just closed his eyes, once again opened them, "Ambush From Ten Sides!"

He was very familiar with this piece, as "Ambush From Ten Sides" had been passed down from ancient times.

But he definitely couldn’t achieve what he just felt with only a guqin, making people even fantasize that they were in the midst of a battlefield!

Some people were even scared to the point of sitting on the ground, their legs trembling, terribly frightened.

The eldest senior brother looked at Yin Tian, who was still playing, with a complex expression.

Being able to draw people into the mood of the music, he simply couldn’t compare himself with Yin Tian.

What he could do was to immerse himself into it, but he couldn’t bring the audience with him, meaning he couldn’t resonate with the audience.

The piece "Ambush From Ten Sides" was short, and Yin Tian quickly finished playing it.

Just when the eldest senior brother thought Yin Tian had ended, the tune changed once again.

Clear, melodious.

It was as if one were in a lush forest, experiencing an unprecedented harmony between man and nature.

"A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix..."

The eldest senior brother spoke with difficulty, his eyes filled with admiration as he looked at Yin Tian.

And the people in the audience quickly withdrew from the mood of "Ambush From Ten Sides," being drawn into another gentle illusion.

Flap flap flap...

A dark shadow suddenly rushed into the exhibition hall.

It was a swallow!

The swallow flew around the hall before settling beside Yin Tian.

As the swallow arrived, more and more birds flew in.

All the birds landed next to Yin Tian, seemingly intoxicated by his music.

Cheep cheep cheep...

The calls of the birds were somewhat chaotic, but they did not affect the overall music, instead, they even played a supporting role.

For a moment, it was difficult to discern whether it was the zither or the birdsong!

Another ten minutes or so passed, and Yin Tian’s hands covered the zither strings. The enchanting music finally stopped.

The audience opened their eyes, only to discover that the hall was already filled with hundreds of birds!

And as the music disappeared, the birds took flight again, quickly leaving the exhibition hall.

Yin Tian turned his head, looking at the eldest senior brother, "How was it?"

"I lost."

The eldest senior brother didn’t hesitate at all and readily admitted that he was no match for Yin Tian.

Yin Tian nodded in satisfaction, then said, "Then apologize."

The eldest senior brother grunted affirmatively, and just as he was about to speak, the second senior brother suddenly interjected.

"We haven’t compared yet."
