Galactic Garbage Station - Chapter 857-2

Jia Zhengning, Yang Tong, and Liu Yong, who were going to watch Su Jing make a fool of himself all had terrible expressions on their faces.

The show was still going on and one student after another took to the stage to perform their pieces. Many people were embarrassed to find that shows such as singing, cross talk, sketches, and many other performances were not as good as that martial arts gymnastics. 

Three boys performed a cool street dance, and both boys and girls were excited about it. Although there was a big mistake and a few small mistakes in the middle, it still did not affect the enthusiasm of the students. 

However, after the hip-hop performance, the atmosphere decreased again, and as the shows passed, the party was drawing to a close.

“Senior Brother Su Jing organized a gymnastics martial arts performance. Will he not go on stage anymore?”

“I thought he would at least perform on stage for one show, it looks like I was happy for nothing.”

“Wait, Senior Brother Su Jing isn’t in the VIP seat?”

“Hey, he’s gone, did he leave early?”

“He definitely didn’t. Look there, his girlfriend is still sitting there so how could he leave early without her?”

“In other words, he went backstage?”

The students who found out that Su Jing had gone backstage got excited, and then the host on stage said, “The next show and the last show of the night would be really great, I know everyone is looking forward to Mr. Su’s performance and to be honest, I’m looking forward to it too. Now, we are finally going to see it with our own eyes. Mr. Su will play an Ancient Zither song titled ‘Forget the rivers and lakes.”

The whole audience burst into a frenzy, and the fans who came from nearby and stood around the periphery shouted out one after another.

“Oh My God, it seems like a new song.”

“I know all the songs performed by Brother Jing but I haven’t heard anything about ‘Forget the rivers and lakes, this must be a new song.”

“Coming here today was worth it.”

At that moment, the curtain was pulled open and everyone saw Su Jing who was sitting alone in the center of the stage with an Ancient Zither in front of him, there was no choreography, no backup dancers, but the cheering and shouting of the whole audience suddenly stopped and everyone became quiet.

Su Jing, without speaking any nonsense, gently lifted his hands and landed them on the strings, and a piece of zither music started to play. The zither music tinkled like flowing water, trickling, revealing a sense of freedom and spontaneity.

That kind of extraordinary artistic conception is indescribable.

Everyone in the audience was immediately caught up in the music and they got lost in it.

Everyone seemed to see that they have transformed into an ancient gentleman, holding an ancient book, reading it comfortably, even if there was a war of gold and resources outside, it would not affect them at all.

The zither music curled up, and the artistic conception was sublimated. Many boys seemed to see a beautiful woman and a confidante appear next to them who were reading. 

She is also reading and she would occasionally discuss a few words with them while smiling sweetly. The girls seemed to see that there was a handsome gentleman with a confident face, who was chanting poetry to her. 

This kind of feeling is very beautiful, but it has nothing to do with the situation and it has nothing to do with the relationship between men and women, they are just confidants. 

Some are just imagining themselves looking like a fine gentleman with women by their side and everyone in immersed in this wonderful feeling of “The Book has its own Golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu”  

(TL:-The so-called golden house, on the surface, refers to a house made of gold, but in fact, it describes an extremely rich and luxurious living environment; and the so-called Yan Ruyu refers to a beautiful woman. This famous saying from the ages means that as long as you gain fame through learning, you will naturally be prosperous and wealthy, and naturally beautiful women are indispensable. At the same time, it also explains the importance of reading from the perspective of people chasing fame and fortune.).

Everyone present became drunk on hearing Su Jing’s music and it was as if they had forgotten all their troubles with the outside world and at the moment, they just enjoyed the feeling they got. 

The Zither Song finally ended after a long time.

After a few seconds of silence, there were warm cheers and applause.

“It sounds good, it sounds great.”

“The artistic conception behind this music is even more unique, it makes me want to be a scholar.”

“Yes, yes, I have always been unable to sit still, but suddenly I like the feeling of forgetting everything and just reading quietly.”

“Brother Jing this is so good.”

“Brother Jing, I love you.”

The principal, leaders, and some teachers were even more excited than the students. They all stood up excitedly with shocked expressions on their faces. 

Because this piece is not only good to listen to, the key is that kind of artistic conception, is really too high and clear. 

As teachers, they have naturally tried all kinds of ways to get students to meditate, to educate them, to encourage scholarships, to publicize student rankings, etc., but the effect has been limited.

This is the first time that they have heard a piece of music that has such a good effect. Listening to this piece of music makes people calm down and want to immerse themselves in the feeling of reading a book quietly. 

It’s amazing, how can there be such a thing in the world? If they knew that there was such a song then why would they need so many complicated methods? It would be better if they played this song every day in class.

Actually, this “Forget the rivers and lakes” is really not something belonging to the earth. It comes from the Yang God Universe and is made by the father of the fairy Tian Lai (Heavenly Sound). 

He is a great Confucian, and his understanding of Confucianism, music, and the love between scholars and confidantes has reached a realm beyond the reach of mortals. 

Su Jing can’t express the entire feel of this song, but what he can do is enough to make ordinary people intoxicated.
