When asked by Lu Yinshuang, Shen Ruobing didn't know how to explain.
For Jianxiu, like ordinary ancient martial arts practitioners, it was difficult to explain to those who had not touched this mysterious realm.
Because even if explained, in the minds of ordinary people, it would still be confusing.
After all, there were many mysterious things involved.
Most importantly, even if spoken, not everyone would believe it.
"Sister Yinshuang, speaking of Jianxiu, there are too many things involved. I will definitely explain it to you when there's a chance!" Shen Ruobing could only use these few words to fob her off.
Lu Yinshuang was naturally not satisfied with Shen Ruobing's response.
However, since the other party was unwilling to answer at this time, she couldn't force it further.
As they were chatting, the lights on the boat moored by the lake suddenly lit up.
Someone saw Cheng Xiaofan appear on the boat.
"Ah, Master Cheng has gone to that small boat!"
Shen Ruobing exclaimed in surprise, "Is he going to perform for us right away?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Yinshuang and the others noticed that the boat began to drift slowly towards the center of the lake, swayed by Cheng Xiaofan's feet.
It didn't drift far before stopping.
Cheng Xiaofan sat cross-legged at the front of the boat, with a zither placed between his knees.
"So, the performance Master Cheng is going to give is to play the zither for us?" At this moment, Su Ruobing looked at Cheng Xiaofan on the small boat in the center of the lake with anticipation.
As a descendant of Jianxiu, she had a strange premonition in her heart.
It seemed that tonight, she might obtain what she had been expecting.
The depths of the lake reflected the lamplight on the boat and the starry sky; water connected to the sky, and the sky connected to the water. In a daze, Cheng Xiaofan seemed to be in the depths of the vast starry sky in Su Ruobing's eyes.
The evening breeze blew gently.
It seemed to stir the thoughts in one's heart.
Turning into dancing stars.
"Tonight is truly beautiful!" Su Ruobing murmured.
Lu Yinshuang glanced at Su Ruobing beside her with some surprise, very concerned that she might have gone mad because of Cheng Xiaofan after coming to Bai Mang Lake this time.
After all, Cheng Xiaofan was the man in Bai Yiling's heart.
This time you came to Zhuxi Village, don't fail to persuade Bai Yiling to return to C City, and instead go mad yourself, that would be bad.
Ding!
Just as Lu Yinshuang was lost in thought, a crisp zither sound suddenly came from the center of the lake.
This sound seemed to make the world suddenly freeze.
The sounds of frogs croaking and insects chirping that had been filling Bai Mang Lake, as well as the occasional bird calls from the surrounding mountains and fields, all fell silent.
Ding ding!
Two clear zither notes came from Cheng Xiaofan's fingertips.
A fish, about two feet long, leaped out of the lake. At a height of three meters above the water, it flipped three times in the air before diving back into the water.
Ripples spread outwards, and then the surface became calm again.
The lake was as smooth as a mirror.
"It's too beautiful, this scene will be forever etched in my heart!"
Su Ruobing murmured again as if in a dream.
The other beautiful women also seemed to have entered a special realm.
With another "ding," the zither music began to flow continuously from Cheng Xiaofan's fingers.
Sliding from low notes to high notes, it was like moonlight emitting a faint fragrance, gently caressing the heart; then descending slowly from high notes, like scattered pearls, shimmering with fine luster.
As the notes changed, the fireflies that had been moving in and out of the reeds around Bai Mang Lake all flew in one direction.
In an instant, they formed a wall of fireflies, standing opposite where Lu Yinshuang and the others could see.
Suddenly, the entire, previously bright, firefly wall dimmed.
Just as everyone was stunned, the zither music shifted slightly, and a pair of bright butterflies appeared on the darkened wall, dancing gracefully.
It was truly a breathtaking sight!
Huh!
How magical!
At this moment, the beautiful women suddenly woke up.
Cheng Xiaofan could actually use the zither music to control the fireflies around Bai Mang Lake to perform a butterfly dance for them.
So beautiful!
So magical!
He could even do this!
The scene suddenly shifted. The firefly wall that had stood on the lake suddenly collapsed.
In Cheng Xiaofan's beautiful zither music, the collapsing firefly wall transformed into birds, flying and singing over the lake.
Then, those flying birds transformed into countless flowers, swaying in the wind on the lake.
"Wow, what beautiful music, what a beautiful scene!"
"I feel my heart has been enchanted!"
"I can't imagine how Cheng Xiaofan managed to do all this!"
While the beautiful women were exclaiming, Shen Ruobing closed her eyes and sat cross-legged, as if in deep meditation.
"Ruobing, what are you doing?" Lu Yinshuang asked, puzzled.
Bai Yiling smiled and said, "Ruobing is now listening to Xiaofan's zither music with her heart. At this moment, she may understand the great principles contained in this music better than us!"
Great principles?
Obviously, Lu Yinshuang and the other beautiful women did not understand what "great principles" meant.
They were more interested in how Cheng Xiaofan used his zither music to control the fireflies and continuously conjure up various scenes.
Since they were born, they had never dared to imagine that fireflies, under the manipulation of music, could form various magical spectacles.
After the flowers swaying in the wind disappeared, from the opposite bank of the lake, galloping red horses rushed to the center of the lake, dancing around Cheng Xiaofan on the waves.
"Heavens, horses can dance on the lake?" Mo Yingying exclaimed in disbelief.
Bai Yiling smiled and said, "These are the horses Xiaofan raised. It can be said that you can no longer find horses in the world that can dance on the water, treading on waves!"
Liu Wanqing's eyes widened and she said, "Why does this scene feel like a dream to me?"
At this moment!
Cheng Xiaofan suddenly leaped up, flew into the air from the bow of the boat, spun, and landed gracefully on the back of a general.
He sat cross-legged as before, his hands dancing on the zither strings.
The passionate zither music echoed endlessly in the mountains.
The thirty-six red horses, with the rhythm of an army of thousands, created layers of waves more than three feet high on the lake, with no wind around.
"Woof woof!"
"Quack quack!"
"Chirp—"
"Beep boop beep boop!"
At this moment, Taobao rode on a white swan, leading nine other white swans, flying over.
The Sky-Breaking Eagle and the Dragon Fish also flew over, dancing in the air around Cheng Xiaofan from different angles.
Seeing this scene, and those magical animals, the beautiful women led by Lu Yinshuang were all stunned.
As they stood dumbfounded, not knowing what to say, a commotion suddenly occurred beside them.
Boom!
A sound similar to a violent explosion erupted beside them.
Before the few people could understand what was happening, they were knocked to the ground by a strong gust of wind.
