After He Xiao finished singing the song, he returned to his seat at the table.
Not long after he came down, Jibang was called up to play drums. The one who called Jibang was the lead singer of another band, and the drummer of their band was a traveling drummer, who was not with another band today.
As soon as Ji Bang came up, Qi Yuan and Lin Ye, who had been looking down, also raised their heads with a smile. Looking up at Ji Bang who was jumping up on the stage, Qi Yuan put down his phone and said to He Xiao who was drinking beside him.
"Look in the group. Ji Bang told Tang Miao a lot of things, even telling her that you asked him to post the video he took in this group."
After Qi Yuan finished his complaint, Lin Ye beside him also smiled.
Just now, after He Xiao finished singing and left the stage, he was pulled by Li Zhen who was sitting on the other side to talk, so he didn't look at his phone. After hearing what Qi Yuan said, He Xiao glanced at him and took the phone.
After taking the phone, He Xiao leaned back in his chair, opened WeChat and started looking at the chat history in the group.
The beginning was full of emoticons. He Xiao scrolled up a few pages. As he scrolled, the light of the screen flickered in his deep eyes.
He Xiao went to look at the chat history. Li Zhen watched him pick up the phone, then looked up and smiled at Qi Yuan and asked a question.
"What group?"
"A group of people whizzing by." Qi Yuan said with a smile, "Yesterday our band added a new keyboard player."
As soon as this was said, everyone at the table laughed. Everyone knew that the keyboard player of Howling Passing was He Xiao. Even though he was also the lead singer, he never said that he wanted to recruit another keyboard player for Howling Passing.
Everyone knew Qi Yuan was joking, so Li Zhen laughed along with everyone else and asked, "Tang Miao?"
Qi Yuan mentioned this name when he was talking to He Xiao just now.
"Yes." Qi Yuan said.
When Qi Yuan agreed to this, the people at the table who originally thought he was joking began to question whether this was a joke after hearing his name.
"Is this true?" a guitarist asked.
Qi Yuan was smiling and was about to speak when Lin Ye said, "It's not true, but it's not false either. Tang Miao is Xiao's neighbor and she came to the Qingcheng Music Festival yesterday. We had a meal together and after knowing that she can play the piano, we asked her to perform with us. She said there were too many people at the festival and she couldn't play on stage. Qi Yuan said that when we return to Huaicheng, we can ask her to perform with us on the way back."
Lin Ye briefly explained what happened, and then said, "Then we created a group and added her in, so Jibang now tells everyone that we are now a band of five people."
After Lin Ye said this, the Jibang drum set on the stage started to beat "bang bang". He looked back, smiled, and then looked away.
After hearing what Lin Ye said, everyone understood. This matter was of course not true, at most it was a serious joke. After Lin Ye finished speaking, the lead singer of a band vividly described Tang Miao's identity.
"Special guest."
"That's right!" After he said that, Qi Yuan took the wine glass and clinked it with him.
After Qi Yuan clinked glasses like this, others also picked up their wine glasses, and the table was filled with joy again.
"Is she from Huaicheng?" Li Zhen asked this after putting down her glass of wine.
Gang Linye said that they were with Tang Miao when they were going back to Huaicheng for the performance, so Tang Miao should be from Huaicheng.
"Yes." Lin Ye responded, "She is Xiao's neighbor."
"Neighbor?" After Lin Ye introduced Tang Miao's identity, Li Zhen looked at He Xiao, who was still looking down at the chat history beside him, with wide eyes in surprise.
When Li Zhen asked her such a surprised question, Qi Yuan returned to her motherly nature and said, "What's so strange about this? We, Xiao, don't live in the deep mountains or old forests, so of course we have neighbors."
What he said does make sense.
Li Zhen smiled and said, "I just find it strange. It seems that Xiao doesn't interact with people that much, at most it's just you or us."
After saying that, Li Zhen paused and said, "I didn't expect that he could get along well with his neighbors and introduce them to you."
At this point, Li Zhen took a sip of the wine and said, "By the way, is this Tang Miao a man or a woman?"
The name Tang Miao sounds somewhat neutral and can be used by both men and women.
"A girl." Qi Yuan said this after Li Zhen asked. After that, he looked at He Xiao, who was looking down at the chat history, with a malicious look and said, "She's a sister, very gentle."
As soon as he finished speaking, He Xiao, who was originally looking at the phone screen, raised his head. After raising his head, he looked at Qi Yuan, who was showing a bad taste, calmly and put down his phone.
"Have you finished reading it?" Qi Yuan asked after seeing him put down his phone.
After Qi Yuan asked, He Xiao took a sip from the wine glass and said, "I've finished reading it."
-
I whizzed past and stayed in Pucheng for three days.
On the first day, we had dinner at a music restaurant and performed a show. On the second day, we attended the Pucheng Music Festival. On the third day, we rested in the hotel until noon, and then set off for Haicheng.
Haicheng is an island city.
It is on the same line as Qingcheng and Pucheng, and it feels like going from inland to the coast. The high-speed rail goes all the way to the high-speed rail station in the city next to Haicheng, and then you take a car and a ferry to the island where Haicheng is located.
The island of Haicheng is located in the north. Compared with the island cities in the south, the climate of Haicheng is more humid and cooler. Even in August, the temperature on the island is maintained at 25 or 26 degrees, which is neither too high nor too low. When standing on the island, there is sea breeze from all directions, which makes the temperature lower, and it is cool and refreshing.
Compared with Qingcheng and Pucheng, Haicheng is a smaller city. The island has a rugged terrain, many mountains and forests, and there are beaches and cliffs on the seashore. There are not many residents on the sea, and the city construction is more in line with local characteristics and original. From the moment you step onto the island, you will feel like you are in a paradise.
Although the city is not big, it is quite glorious. The special geographical environment creates a special scenery of Haicheng. The whole island has different colors every hour for 24 hours a day. The color change is like giving it a fresh filter, making the scenery of the island beautiful and different.
Because of this, it has become the filming location for many movies or songs. Although there are mountains and forests on the island, they are all hills with low altitudes. The top of the mountain is still flat and has been developed almost completely. At the highest point on the island stands a white lighthouse, which is tall and towering. It is also one of the island's characteristic attractions. Anyone who comes to the island will come here to take pictures and check in.
The island looks like a painting.
As the ferry approached the shore, four people whizzed past and got off the ferry, and walked into the painting.
The journey of Whizzing Past in Haicheng is still three days.
Starting from tonight, we will perform in the livehouse for two days, and the third day, which is Wednesday night, will be the music festival performance.
The music festival in Haicheng was held on a beach that extended into the deep sea. The beach was very large and the scenery was very beautiful. The music festival started in the evening, and the lights shone through the darkness and the black sea, as if lighting up the eyes of the island. The aerial photography was very bright and shocking.
Haicheng is also a long-established music festival city with a strong music festival culture. Because of this, many bars and livehouses have emerged. The performance of Howling Passing at the Haicheng Livehouse was held in the same bar. The owner of the bar is a singer who was very popular in the past. Later, he didn't want to live in the worldly vanity, so he came to this island. But the owner really loves singing, so he spent money to open a bar.
This bar is not small, even bigger than Guitu. There is a band playing, and there are many customers in the bar. Some of the customers are locals who have moved here, and more are tourists from other places.
Some people like the noise of music festivals, while others like the closed and thick atmosphere of livehouses. In a closed space with dim lights, the performances of bands seem to be more likely to stimulate people's emotions.
The service at a large bar like this is no worse than at a music festival. Long before the four people arrived, the bar sent a car to the high-speed rail station to pick them up, and for the next few days, their food, clothing, housing and transportation were all arranged for them.
It was five in the afternoon when we arrived at Haicheng. There was still some time before the live house performance in the evening, so the four of us were sent to the hotel to rest first. After resting and having dinner at the hotel, we were sent to the bar.
Today's livehouse performances were a mix of bands. Some were bands participating in the festival, such as Howling Pass, who came early and performed two shows in advance. Some were small bands that were not invited to the festival. It was quite interesting to see them mixed together.
The four of them rested in Pucheng in the morning before taking the high-speed train. The journey in the afternoon was not too far, but the ferry ride was a bit tiring.
Lin Ye was a little seasick, so he went back to his room to rest after arriving at the hotel. The other three also took their room cards and went back to their rooms together.
-
The owner of the bar that invited them to perform has a very wealthy background and is willing to spend money.
The hotel for several people was booked at the best sea view hotel in Haicheng. Although it was not as exaggerated as a suite, it was also a sea view room.
The room is large and luxurious, with a large balcony facing the door. Looking across the room, across the French windows, across the balcony, you can see the mountains and forests in the distance, and the sea in the distance.
The sunset in the north is earlier than that in the south. At around five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun hangs above the sea, emitting a soft light, making the calm sea surface sparkle with thin light.
He Xiao took the room card and walked in. He stood at the door and looked out the French window. Then, he retracted his gaze, put down his luggage and went to take a shower.
After taking a shower, He Xiao changed into clean clothes and half-leaned on the bed. After leaning on the bed, He Xiao opened WeChat on his phone.
He Xiao rarely uses WeChat.
He has only a handful of friends on WeChat.
Apart from the other three people who whizzed by, the WeChat accounts I added earlier were some producers or directors, mainly for work purposes.
As for the WeChat messages about work, they were usually not very busy. In fact, most of the time, Qi Yuan and Ji Bang sent him messages asking him to come down for dinner.
But in recent days, his WeChat has been quite busy.
He didn't block group messages. Every time there was a message in the group, it would be displayed on the WeChat app icon. While he was taking a shower, the number of messages displayed on the icon had reached 99.
Opening the group message, Ji Bang was posting photos in the group. Since he boarded the ferry, his phone has never been idle. He has been taking photos and posting them to the group so that Tang Miao, the "fifth person" who whizzed by and did not come to Haicheng, can always be with them.
He sent a lot of messages, but Tang Miao never replied. It was only about five minutes ago that Tang Miao replied to Ji Bang's first message.
【Tang Miao: Have you arrived in Haicheng? 】
As soon as Tang Miao sent the message, Ji Bang sent several messages in a row.
【Jibang: Yes. I just arrived this afternoon.】
【Jibang: Look at the pictures and videos I posted above! Aren’t they super beautiful?】
After Jibang sent these two messages, Tang Miao did not reply for a while, as if he was looking at the pictures and videos Jibang sent. After a while, Tang Miao's message came.
【Tang Miao: It looks very nice.】
After commenting on the pictures and videos taken by Jibang, Tang Miao sent another message.
【Tang Miao: Haicheng is really beautiful. 】
After Tang Miao finished speaking, Ji Bang asked a question.
【Jibang: Ah, have you been here? 】
【Tang Miao: No.】
【Tang Miao: But I’ve always wanted to go there.】
[Jibang: It would be nice if you could come with us this time. ]
After Ji Bang expressed his thoughts, Tang Miao did not reply for a while. Not long after, she sent a photo. The photo showed piano keys and a pair of children's hands playing next to them.
【Tang Miao: Yes.】
【Tang Miao: But you have to work.】
After Tang Miao sent this message, Ji Bang looked at the message she sent and then said a few words of comfort.
[Jibang: Anyway, whether you come or not, Haicheng is here. ]
【Jibang: I'll come back when I have time. 】
[Jibang: I will take more photos and videos for you. ]
Ji Bang sent three messages in a row, but Tang Miao did not reply immediately. She seemed to have gone to class again. In fact, since the day they separated in Qingcheng, Tang Miao's replies were short and intermittent except in the morning and evening. Her classes were still very tight, and she could only reply in the gaps between classes.
After Jibang sent the message, Tang Miao replied with an "OK" gesture after a while. After that, there was no more news in the group.
He Xiao sat on the bed, watching the chat in the group end. He refreshed the page twice with his fingers, but no new messages appeared.
He looked at the chat history on the screen, pursed his lips slightly, and put down his phone.
