Chapter 363 The Gears of Destiny
Walking on mountain roads is very tiring! Cheng Xuyuan had walked on mountain roads before when he traveled, but walking on the rugged mountain roads at this time still made him feel as if his legs were filled with lead.
Every time I took a step, my legs felt sore.
However, he couldn't complain of being tired at this time, because except for a few men, the rest of the people around him were all girls.
No one else is complaining about being tired, so it's a bit unreasonable for me to complain about being tired! As he walked forward, he glanced at Shen Yumo beside him and said, "Can you still hold on?"
Shen Yumo nodded and said, "It's okay. Although this road is a bit difficult to walk on, it's still a little worse than working in the fields before."
"And you?"
How could Cheng Xuyuan say that he was a little tired at this time, so he laughed dryly and said, "I don't think there's anything wrong with me."
While the two were talking, someone suddenly said, "How about we all sing a song?"
Cheng Xuyuan looked up and found that the person who spoke was Sister Li from the drama troupe. This sister was less than 40 years old and had a hot-tempered personality.
Although Cheng Xuyuan didn't have much contact with her, he admired her carefree and casual nature.
It seems that this elder sister wants to encourage everyone.
As soon as she said this, someone said, "Okay, Sister Li, you sing first."
"We'll sing if you sing."
Following this suggestion, there was a burst of good-natured laughter all around.
Sister Li was very tolerant of the young ladies under her. She smiled and said, "Okay, I'll sing a song first. After I sing, each of you can sing a song."
"I think that by the time we're all done singing, we'll be almost at the camp we need to go to."
After hearing this, someone said, "Sister Li, you said so. Let Writer Cheng sing a song for us later."
"Yes, we have to let Writer Cheng show us a picture too!"
…
Cheng Xuyuan didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he would become the target of everyone's siege.
"Mr. Cheng, is it okay for you to sing a song for everyone?" Because they had been traveling together for several days, Sister Li was no longer a stranger to Cheng Xuyuan, so she asked with a smile.
Cheng Xuyuan waved his hand and said, "Sister, I have no objection to you singing a song, but please call me by my name. I am Cheng Xuyuan, just an ordinary author."
"Calling me a writer is too much of a compliment. I can't handle it!"
While the sisters were cheering, Rong Bing's eyes were always on Cheng Xuyuan.
Through her contact with Shen Yumo these days, she learned a lot about Cheng Xuyuan.
Although this young man is younger than himself, he is still studying at Yenching University.
But his fame is much greater than mine.
The most important thing is that he has a very easy-going personality, is not arrogant at all, and has a very good relationship with himself and others.
"Okay, then you sing a song for us first. If everyone applauds, we will fulfill your wish and won't ask you to be a writer anymore." Sister Li joked with a smile.
Facing this request, Cheng Xuyuan hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then I'll sing a song."
Before Cheng Xuyuan could start singing, a female actress from a drama troupe in her twenties said, "Writer Cheng, you can't fool people."
"Our eldest sister said that you have to sing a song that we all agree on."
"It would be great if we could also listen to what songs college students sing."
After hearing this, even more people started to make a fuss.
Shen Yumo stood not far away, looking at Cheng Xuyuan who was being teased, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Although she and Cheng Xuyuan were husband and wife, they did not have much contact when they were in Chengjiazhuang, and she was not sure whether Cheng Xuyuan could sing.
But when it comes to singing, if you can’t sing well, you can still sing badly!
Cheng Xuyuan looked at the group of girls who were making a fuss and felt speechless.
However, since everyone is tired from walking on the mountain road, it would be nice to sing a song.
Since he couldn't dodge it at this moment, Cheng Xuyuan began to think about what song to sing.
I don’t seem to be able to sing the songs of today.
And there is a high possibility that I will not pass the test. Instead of arguing with these girls, I might as well sing a song that I can pass on to future generations!
What to sing?
In a flash, countless songs and lyrics appeared in Cheng Xuyuan's mind.
It was really because of his super memory in his previous life that he remembered too many things.
"Then let me sing a song called "Love Song of the West Sea" for everyone. I hope everyone will be satisfied."
Cheng Xuyuan thought about it and decided to choose the song he was familiar with, "Love Song of the West Sea".
Hearing Cheng Xuyuan's words, Rong Bing was stunned for a moment.
Among the songs she was familiar with was "Kangding Love Song", but she had never heard of "West Sea Love Song" before.
Is this a new song or a local folk song?
Out of curiosity, she looked at her companions and found that most of them looked dazed.
For a moment, a thought came to her mind: Could it be that Cheng Xuyuan was deliberately teasing everyone?
What is "Love Song of the West Sea"? Was it just a random name he came up with? She looked at Shen Yumo beside her and found that Shen Yumo was also confused at this time.
At this time, I heard Cheng Xuyuan singing: "Since you left, I have lost my tenderness.
Waiting on this long snowy mountain road
Listen to the cold wind howling as usual..."
From a professional perspective, Cheng Xuyuan's voice is still far from perfect, but it is more than enough for KTV.
What's more, this is one of his best songs.
When he started singing, Cheng Xuyuan was still a little bit hesitant, but after singing the first sentence, Cheng Xuyuan suddenly felt like he was singing with his friends.
This feeling has not appeared since I traveled through time.
Just as Cheng Xuyuan started singing, Shen Yumo was stunned when he heard the song.
She could conclude that she had never heard of this song "Love Song of the West Sea".
But Cheng Xuyuan's first sentence made her feel touched, as if this song was written for herself.
Ever since I wanted to separate from him, he has lost his gentleness!
If that's the case, then...
Just as thoughts were surging in Shen Yumo's mind, he heard other lyrics.
Turns out this wasn’t written for me.
The moment Shen Yumo thought of this, she felt relieved, but at this moment, a sadder and more lost feeling appeared in her heart.
He didn’t write it for himself.
The actors in the drama troupe are basically proficient in music.
Asking Cheng Xuyuan to sing was originally just to stir up trouble and to get closer to Cheng Xuyuan.
But at this moment, listening to Cheng Xuyuan's singing, their expressions all became serious.
Even those who were originally talking in low voices stopped talking and just watched Cheng Xuyuan singing silently.
The lyrics and music of this song are both very nice.
Cheng Xuyuan sang with great devotion and it sounded pretty good.
Just as everyone was listening to these memorable lyrics, the song suddenly entered the chorus.
"Remember you promised me
I won't let you go.
But you followed the migratory birds flying so far
Love is like a kite with its string cut
I can’t hold back the promise you made…”
Listening to Cheng Xuyuan's singing which seemed to have a hint of roar, Shen Yumo's heart trembled a little.
If the lyrics she just confessed made her feel that this song was not written for her.
But now these words made her wonder, were these the heartfelt words of Cheng Xuyuan when she was about to leave Chengjiazhuang Brigade?
this……
When Cheng Xuyuan finished singing the chorus, his companions who were walking with him stopped talking.
For them, the lyrics just now really shocked them.
This song is so good! Half a minute later, Sister Li suddenly clapped her hands, and as she clapped, the others followed suit.
"Cheng...Xuyuan, is this what you mean by you can't sing? Your singing is so beautiful, it makes me want to cry just by listening to it."
At this point, Sister Li said solemnly: "Xuyuan, why haven't I heard of your song "Love Song of the West Sea"? Who wrote it? It's so beautiful."
As she spoke, Rong Bing followed suit and asked, "Cheng Xuyuan, this is the first time I've heard of this song. Normally, we should have heard such a good song before."
The two people's questions prompted the other actors in the drama troupe who were immersed in the song to say, "That's right, I haven't heard of it either."
"Such a beautiful song should not be buried."
Facing the inquiring gazes, Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "I heard this from a friend of mine. He said it's a folk song from their place."
"I don't think it's a folk song." Sister Li said, "Where does your friend work? I'll go ask him for advice when I get back."
Cheng Xuyuan frowned when he heard what Sister Li said, and then said, "I'll see if I can contact him then."
"Sister Li, I think I've passed this test. After all, everyone just applauded."
"Next, it's time for someone else to sing."
After being interrupted by Cheng Xuyuan, Sister Li said, "Okay, let's continue singing."
As he spoke, he said to a thin girl, "Xiao Ling, you sing first. You must sing a song you are good at. You can't let Mr. Cheng look down on us."
Hearing this, there was another burst of laughter all around.
Having been called Writer Cheng for a long time, Cheng Xuyuan was too lazy to defend himself anymore.
The girl called Xiao Ling smiled and said, "Don't worry, big sister. I will never let Writer Cheng look down on me."
"Writer Cheng, I will sing a song 'Kangding Love Song' for you now."
As Xiao Ling opened her mouth, clear singing began to sound. Although there was no accompaniment, listening to it was a different kind of enjoyment.
Cheng Xuyuan couldn't help but feel happier as he listened to the song. His legs, which had been numb, felt a lot more relaxed.
Just at this time, someone said, "Everyone, please be careful. The road ahead is a bit steep and there are often falling rocks. Please be careful..."
Just as he finished speaking, Cheng Xuyuan suddenly saw a stone as big as a bowl falling from the cliff above.
In an instant, the stone was about to hit the head of Shen Yumo in front of him.
If it hits, then...
Looking at Shen Yumo who was walking forward without any reaction, Cheng Xuyuan had no thoughts in his mind at this moment.
He just walked quickly forward and pushed Shen Yumo hard.
Shen Yumo's body was pushed directly to the ground, and the falling stone hit Cheng Xuyuan's back heavily.
Cheng Xuyuan felt his eyes go dark and he fell to the ground.
After a burst of noise in his ears, he could hear nothing!
