Chapter 379: Song of Redemption

Chen Rongrong had been keeping the original version of "Deep Sea" on Loop for some time, so she had already memorized the lyrics to the entire song.

"'Deluding to warm you' was changed to 'It wants to warm you.'"

"'The soul sinks into silence' was changed to 'It says you listen, you listen.'"

"'No one will wake you' became 'Someone is calling you back.'"

She sniffled, understanding that these two versions were actually two different cores, and could even be said to be two different songs.

In reality, if not for the original version, this adapted version would not be so moving.

This has a complementary effect.

The next moment, Tian Ming took another step forward.

This time, it was his Rap section again.

"【You like the salty scent of the sea breeze,

Stepping on the wet gravel,

You say that people's final destination should be back in the deep sea.

You ask where longing goes, if anyone loves you,

Why the world is so quiet.】"

It still gave people a feeling of having its own built-in reverb, truly just like the barrage comments posted by the audience: "Listen, the Buddha is Rap-ing."

However, compared to the first time, the Sanskrit Sound effect here was slightly weakened, and instead became more sonorous and powerful!

The power increased again, and the emotions progressed further.

Yes, since you are asking me, then I will answer you loudly!

The barrage began to sweep across the screen.

"Does anyone feel that the Buddha light has turned into sunlight?"

"Wow! This atmosphere creation, this emotional rendering!"

"Damn! This is the real Rap Emperor!"

"Worthy of being someone who debuted from a CCTV program, worthy of being called the National Team!"

"I suddenly understand why they can repeatedly appear on the Spring Festival Gala."

Tian Ming and Xue Ning were very strong; they just hadn't found the right path, and then they were constantly criticized and scolded, making them increasingly unconfident.

What Luo Mo did was to make the two of them amplify all their own characteristics!

At the professional judge's table, the teacher we are familiar with, Lv Yi, was still sitting in the first row. He directly nudged his Lyricist friend beside him with his elbow and said, "Luo Mo is still Ox, right?"

"You Number One Luo Fan!" The friend pointed at him helplessly with his finger, then nodded vigorously and said, "Indeed Ox!"

It is hard to imagine that a song with both popularity and appeal could convey such a sense of power and vitality!

This is due to the credit of the lyrics and music, as well as the blessing of the Singing.

It is a relationship of mutual achievement.

Lv Yi and the others believed that after this episode, many people's impressions of the Fengge Group would undergo a earth-shaking change.

"So, people favored by Luo Mo are definitely not simple." Listening to the singing of Xue Ning and Tian Ming, Lv Yi couldn't help but sigh again.

For a special audience group like Chen Rongrong, this song was already very touching up to this point.

For professional judges like Lv Yi, for this song to reach this level, it was already incomparably Ox.

But as mentioned earlier, the whole song had several highlights.

Xue Ning's Singing, which was full of vitality, was one point, and Tian Ming's Sanskrit Sound Rap was another.

But there was still one place that was very stunning and shocking, at the end of the song.

Do not forget, Fengge Group, it is a group.

Just like in the songs of Phoenix Legend, many people feel that Ceng Yi seems to be of no use, just a freeloader who splits the money, but in reality, his harmony is terrifying.

This guy, who is known as the 【AKA Grassland Bandit】, comes from the 【CCTV label】, and is nicknamed the 【Earthly Rap Emperor】, doesn't just know how to Rap, doesn't just know how to sing "Yo Yo", how to "Stay", or how to sing "Young Wife Aha"!

His harmony is very natural, so natural that it is sometimes ignored by everyone.

But it can definitely play the effect of adding flowers to the brocade.

Now, the strongest harmony part of the entire "Deep Sea" hadn't even started yet.

It was seen that after Tian Ming finished the Rap part this time, he did not put down the microphone.

And Xue Ning, on the side, followed by raising her microphone.

The harmony part of "Deep Sea" was about to come.

The entire lyrics also had a new transformation here.

Do you think the song has already reached its climax?

Luo Mo would tell you: "I can still push it up!"

……..

……..

It was already night, and Chen Rongrong was sitting in the living room watching the program.

Her apartment was on a higher floor, and a large glass window was installed next to the living room, where she could see the night view outside.

She watched as Tian Ming and Xue Ning picked up their microphones together.

In the barrage, some viewers were more sensitive and immediately left comments: "Ah! The harmony is finally coming!"

You must know that when Xue Ning participated in "Masked Singer" alone, Tian Ming came to help sing in the grand finale. As soon as he arrived, everyone immediately felt that Xue Ning's songs were sublimated.

As partners for ten years, the two were too tacit.

In the recording studio, Luo Mo said directly to the two: "I think you are one of the most tacit groups in the Chinese music scene."

The singing began to spread, and Chen Rongrong didn't know what was wrong, so she directly turned up the volume a little.

"【Always wearing a forced smile for the cold and indifferent,

People on the shore all wear expressions of light and shadow.

Year after year in the human world,

Who dares to say it is like smoke!?】"

In an instant, Chen Rongrong shuddered.

"The original version sang: 'The human world holds no attachment, everything dissipates like smoke,'" she muttered.

"'Year after year in the human world, who dares to say it is like smoke?'" She glanced out the window.

——Outside the window, the lights were blazing.

Up to this point, the harmony work Tian Ming was doing was almost just backing vocals.

His voice was very deep, not high-pitched.

Xue Ning, in fact, had not yet belted out high notes, nor had she sung in her strongest vocal range.

This was merely a setup.

Or rather...

——Charging up a spell!

The two stopped singing, and at this point, inserted a short interlude of only a few seconds.

The rhythm of the interlude was still very strong, pushing the emotions further.

Ahead... high-energy warning!

One could see Xue Ning and Tian Ming standing together, both holding microphones in one hand and spreading their arms with the other.

From the audience's perspective, it looked like a phoenix spreading its wings.

The Siren invites you to sink, but the phoenix carries you to soar!

Luo Mo kept giving the two special training in the recording booth, kept praising them, and wanted them to let go of themselves and sing with total abandon, all for the sake of this ending, to achieve the most shocking effect!

"【Too late, too late,

You once cried while smiling.

Too late, too late,

I must also sing it for you to hear!】"

Listening from the beginning, it was still the same as the original version, continuously singing "too late," giving one a sense of despair and powerlessness.

But the last line changed directly from 【Your trembling arms】 to 【I must also sing it for you to hear】!

The overall artistic conception had a huge Reversal at this moment.

Even though every line sung was "too late."

Yet every line was also telling you—it is not too late!

So, the question arises.

What exactly is there to sing for you to hear?

At the end of the original version, it sang: "【Too late, too late, no one will fish you out. Too late, too late, you clearly hate suffocation.】"

So, what about them?

One could see Xue Ning's vocal pitch still rising.

Tian Ming's singing voice also became impassioned along with it.

"【Spring rain!】"

On the entire stage, stage effects appeared, changing from the original ocean waves to spring flowers in full bloom.

"【Summer cicadas chirping!】"

Amidst the singing, the stage effects changed again, from spring flowers to lush green trees, sunlight spilling down, and cicadas flapping their wings.

"【Tomorrow is a good day.】"

They were singing the future to you, singing tomorrow to you.

"【Autumn wind rises!】"

In an instant, the stage was full of Maple trees and Maple leaves, bright red, like clusters of flames!

"【Snowflakes light!】"

The stage changed again, becoming pure white snow, with crystalline snowflakes falling from the sky.

The changing of the four seasons was so beautiful that it was overwhelming.

How could it make one not Want to Watch, how could it make one not feel attached?

At the very end of the song, the two sang loudly.

"【The bottom of the sea cannot see the four seasons.】"

As the entire adapted version of "Deep Sea" concluded, Chen Rongrong, who usually felt dead inside like Dead Water, only felt goosebumps all over, tears streaming down uncontrollably, but there was no despair, no sadness.

"The ending of the whole song has been changed too much."

"The four 'too late's were changed to 'Spring rain, summer cicadas chirping, autumn wind rises, snowflakes light'."

The bullet comments were overwhelming, dense and thick.

"I can't hold it back anymore, I inexplicably can't hold it back when I hear this!"

"I don't know why, I just cried."

"So powerful, and I feel like Xue Ning is singing with a tiny bit of a sob."

"I thought of a phrase: clanking rose. Truly both Gentle and firm!"

"The bottom of the sea cannot see the four seasons!!!"

"It's not too late! It's not too late! It's not too late! It's not too late!"

Amidst the final accompaniment of the song, Xue Ning and Tian Ming had already put down their microphones.

The music continued, and the bullet comments were filled with nothing but three words—【It's not too late】.

On the large screen on the stage, a sentence began to appear.

That was the theme for this episode of "King of Love Songs".

"【If it were possible...】"

Looking at this sentence that could only be considered a half-sentence, a voice emerged in Chen Rongrong's heart.

"If it were possible, I want to get better."

"Perhaps, tomorrow will be a nice day?" She had a smile on her face, yet her face was covered in tears.

This sentence was too piercing.

She probably knew why she didn't cry when listening to the desperate original version, feeling very calm inside, yet cried like this when listening to this version.

What makes people shed tears more than despair is, in fact, hope.

She picked up her phone and sent a WeChat message to the Psychologist who was currently with Xu Chujing.

The Psychologist wearing Gold-rimmed Glasses glanced at the WeChat message, looked up at the "King of Love Songs" playing, and then looked at Xu Chujing with an expression of disbelief.

Muttering to herself: "It really is a song of redemption?"

The timing was too coincidental; she felt that Chen Rongrong was very likely watching the show and had just finished listening to the song.

"What's wrong?" Xu Chujing raised her eyes and glanced at the female doctor.

The Psychologist only said: "A client, presumably having watched the show, asked me if I have time tomorrow and wants to make a Reservation. Other information... sorry, even if it's you, I cannot say."

Xu Chujing nodded, expressing her understanding of this.

A Psychologist is sometimes like a hollow tree, sealing away a vast amount of secrets.

Therefore, she would not press for details.

In reality, didn't the Psychologist also hold her own secrets?

Who would believe that the dignified Heavenly Queen would intermittently feel: "I am a Cat, a cat that is snow-white all over, without a single stray hair! Not a single stray hair!"

This woman wearing a White Lab Coat pushed up her Gold-rimmed Glasses and looked down at her phone screen again.

On the phone, Chen Rongrong said to her:

"Doctor, do you have time tomorrow? I would like to make a Reservation for two o'clock in the afternoon."

In her impression, this patient named Chen Rongrong had not come for a long time. Some patients are just like this; gradually, they start to become too lazy to even see a doctor.

They give up on themselves.

Even when the doctor takes the initiative to schedule a time with the patient, the patient is unwilling to come.

After sending the WeChat Reservation, Chen Rongrong also sent a silly-smiling WeChat emoji, along with a sentence.

"The weather in Beijing has been too good lately, I'm a little bit reluctant to let it go."
