Waking up, Liang Liang found that he had been reborn into 1993.
After much thought about what he should do after his rebirth, Liang Liang decided not to be overly ambitious and venture into p...
Brush your teeth, wash your face, and eat breakfast.
Mornings are usually the time for the dance troupe to practice. After finishing his morning routine, Liang Liang picked up his guitar.
To make up for the lack of a bass, he also took Cuihua's guzheng.
Although the guzheng and the electric bass are two different instruments, it is not impossible to use a certain range of the guzheng as a bass.
The guzheng accompaniment in Lao Cui's "The Fake Monk" is a classic among classics, and you can listen to it a hundred times without getting tired of it.
However, blending the guzheng into the accompaniment is not an easy task, nor can it be accomplished in a short time.
Try practicing now, and you'll get better with time.
The four of them rehearsed for more than an hour, and just when they were starting to look good, Cuihua, who had a somewhat unreliable personality, suggested going shopping.
Cuihua is the kind of carefree person, with a personality somewhat similar to a husky.
Should we call her Husky Cuihua from now on?
Her suggestion was surprisingly approved by the other two girls, and the three women pulled Liang Liang out of the greenhouse without saying a word.
In 1993, there was really nothing to see in the rural township government seat. Apart from the township government office building, there were no other buildings, just some ordinary houses.
The same situation applies here in Shannantou.
A north-south street with houses lining both sides.
This is no different from what Liang Liang remembers.
Although their Pingshan Village is not under the jurisdiction of Shannantou Township, he often came here in his previous life and was very familiar with the place.
Shannantou Commune is located on the coast. About three miles south of here lies the Yellow Sea, where the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 took place.
It's very convenient to buy seafood here; seafood stalls are everywhere on both sides of the main road.
Women are so fussy. They clearly shouldn't buy seafood, but they still have the nerve to ask how much it costs per pound, which makes Liang Liang very annoyed.
The shops lining both sides of the avenue are mostly general merchandise stores, one after another, with one or two arcades and video arcades interspersed among them.
Liang Liang was drawn to a video arcade because it sold audio tapes.
There was a small speaker outside the video arcade, blasting martial arts sounds.
Liang Liang then walked into the video arcade.
"Watching the video?" a girl of about eighteen or nineteen asked with a grin.
"I don't want to watch the video, I want to see the audio tapes. How much is one?"
There was a counter in the video arcade with a lot of audio tapes on display, and you could tell from the packaging that they were pirated.
"Five yuan a book, or three for ten yuan if you buy more."
Do you have any tracks by the Black Panther band?
The influence of Black Panther 1 in the early 1990s was enormous. Liang Liang fell in love with rock music in his previous life because of listening to Black Panther 1.
"Black Panther? No! We have the Black Cat Band here."
It was almost unimaginable in 1993 that a videotape stall didn't have any Black Panther tapes.
And what the heck is this black cat?
"Do you have any tapes of the Tang Dynasty band?" The Tang Dynasty band is best known for "Dreaming Back to the Tang Dynasty," but besides that, Liang Liang also likes "Flying Bird" and "The Sun."
"I've never heard of the Tang Dynasty band, only the Sugar Bean band." The girl still smiled.
The Sugar Bean Band? Is this girl trying to be funny?
"Are there really no tapes from these two bands?"
"I've never heard of this band before. Could it be a foreign band?" the girl retorted.
"What about Cui Jian? 'Nothing to My Name'? 'The Fake Monk'?"
"Never heard of it."
Liang Liang suddenly felt an extreme sense of unreality.
Could it be that Black Panther Tang Dynasty and Cui Jian are not in the world I was reborn into?
If this is true, is this still a real world?
Is everything I'm seeing now an illusion? Then who am I? Where did I come from and where am I going?
"What about the Compass Band?" Liang Liang took a deep breath and asked, still unwilling to give up.
"Yes, we have that! But it's not an album, it's a compilation."
The girl picked up a copy of "Rock North Crystal" and placed it on the counter.
Hearing that the Compass Band was still around, Liang Liang breathed a sigh of relief.
Liang Liang was also familiar with the cassette tape "Rock North Crystal". In his previous life, he had bought an original copy, which cost him ten yuan.
The cover and back cover of this book are very distinctive. The cover is black on top and red on the bottom, each taking up half the area.
The black part is the red "rock and roll" lettering, and the red part is the black "Beijing" lettering.
The back cover is reversed, with red on top and black on the bottom.
Liang Liang picked up the tape and frowned as she looked at it.
The packaging was no different from the tapes he used to own, but the contents seemed to be problematic.
He can still remember that the bands performing in this compilation included Black Panther, Breath, Cobra, Compass, Reincarnation, New Creation, Overload, Dreaming Band, and singers Wang Yong and Chang Kuan.
However, the tape in his hand contained the bands Cobra, Compass, Reincarnation, New Creation, and Overload, and Wang Yong and Chang Kuan were also there, but the bands Black Panther and Dreaming were gone, and two bands that Liang Liang had never heard of were added.
It can be confirmed that the Black Panther band no longer exists in this world.
Since the Black Panther band no longer exists, Dou Wei naturally won't appear, and the Dreaming band he formed after leaving Black Panther also can't exist.
If Black Panther were to disappear, Tang Dynasty and Cui Jian would likely face dire consequences as well.
Seeing Liang Liang's lost and dejected look, the girl found it strange.
"Why isn't it this cassette tape?"
"Oh! Yes! How much is it? Can you give me a discount?"
"Give me four yuan. We've never given a discount on a single cassette tape before."
Liang Liang took out the 100-yuan note from his pocket and handed it to the girl.
When the girl turned around to look for her money, Ming Hongling and the other two girls also ran in.
"I knew Liang Liang would come here. See how right I was?" Lan Zhi said smugly.
The three women were looking around on the street when they turned around and realized that Liang Liang was missing.
Lanzhi was more astute; she saw a video arcade by the roadside and immediately assumed Liang Liangyi had come here.
She assumed Liang Liang had come to watch a video, and didn't guess that Liang Liang was buying a cassette tape.
"Liang Liang! I see you bought a tape!" Cuihua, acting as if she were family, snatched the tape from Liang Liang's hand.
"Rock North Crystal? What kind of tape is this? I've never heard any of the songs on it before."
"Please walk on the sidewalk, the beacon fires of Yangzhou, my own paradise, Requiem..." Ming Hongling muttered the song titles, looking completely bewildered.
She thought Liang Liang had bought pop songs, but she had never heard any of the songs on the list.
"You spendthrift! What did you buy?" Ming Hongling's little hands itched, and she wanted to pull Liang Liang's ear again.
"You guys don't understand, do you? If you don't understand, then ask. Let me tell you, this is rock and roll! From now on, follow me and I'll teach you."
"Who's he going to be brothers with at his age? Sisters, teach him a lesson!"
Seeing that things were going badly, Liang Liang quickly raised his hands in surrender.
The key point is that the girl hasn't asked him for the money yet; if she had, he would have already cheated on her.
