Chapter 132
Linde's birthday was on December 27th, and he didn't know if it was the right date, anyway, Madam Evelyn told him so.
But he himself has no desire to celebrate his birthday.
After returning to Nott Town, Linde first avoided the eyes of passers-by, and returned home. After cleaning the house, he came to the cemetery again.Sweep Mrs. Evelyn's grave with his own hands.
When night came, Linde returned to the hidden cove where he had been staying half a year ago.
Hastily opened the box, got in, and returned to the warm nest in the suitcase.
A bright flame ignited in the lantern, illuminating Linde's den.
Tables, hammocks, hangers, cabinets.There is also a birdcage inside the cabinet. The birdcage has no door, and Andersen can come in and out freely. The meaning of this cage is to serve as a toilet.
In addition, there are all kinds of sundries in bottles and cans. All kinds of things have basically occupied the entire space, and there are not many places to stay.
Such an environment may seem uncomfortable, but it can give people an endless sense of security.
Linde took off his woolen coat and quickly changed into suitable clothes. The effect of the aging agent had expired long ago, and he had been wearing very ill-fitting clothes outside before.
After changing his clothes, Linde rested for a while, then walked out of the box house with Andersen and went outside.
Signaling Andersen to move freely, Linde walked towards the sea.
There are already many ice slags on the beach that have been pushed into a high pile by the waves. Linde stepped on these ice slags and walked into the bitterly cold sea...
The sun has slowly risen from the distant sea level, and the tide has also slowly receded, leaving only ice slag on the beach.The shellfish on the cliff began to close their shells, and continued to wait for the arrival of the tide at night. Some crabs were swimming in the gaps, and when the tide receded, they had to change places.
boom!
The water surface was broken suddenly, bringing a booming sound.
Afterwards, a large fish with a body length of nearly one meter fell from the sky. It was still alive, and it was jumping vigorously on the tidal flat.
Linde slowly walked out of the water, and the traces of the murlocs on his body were slowly disappearing.
After shaking his hands, Linde walked over to look at the big fish.
He didn't know what fish it was, but he was sure it was a big enough fish.
Andersen flew down, looking puzzled at the guy jumping on the tidal flat.
"Is there anyone around?" Linde asked Andersen.
"no!"
Linde nodded and turned into a murloc again.Step on the fish's head with one foot, and directly dent the tidal flat below.
"Be quiet, I'll be fast, bear with me!" Linde said, he didn't know if he heard Linde's words or what, although its head couldn't move, its tail struggled even more violently.But the more he struggled, the harder the foot that stepped on its head became, and it could feel that its bones were about to burst.
Linde didn't hesitate anymore, quickly took out a thick kitchen knife from his pocket without changing his face, and stabbed it directly through its gills, ending its life.
Lifting the knife again, the fish was separated head to tail.Linde didn't care about the body of the fish that continued to jump because of nerve reflex, he picked up the head of the fish, and directly stabbed at its head.
After a while, he dug out a complete, fist-sized fish brain.
Without hesitation, he directly took out a glass jar from his pocket, which was full of Erdos oil.
This oil was invented by a wizard named Erdos 300 years ago, and it is especially effective for preserving various potion ingredients. The recipe leaked 100 years ago, and now the oil is surprisingly cheap.
Linde carefully put the fish brain in, and then tightened the cap again.
Holding the fish brain, he came to the side of the suitcase, and did not open it in a hurry. He adjusted the suitcase first, and then opened it.
Below is still a small room of no more than ten square meters.But a little empty.The box that Linde bought at the time had only two small spaces, and it also had anti-Muggle devices.Just now he entered the room through the button debugging outside the box.
This room looks relatively empty, there is no cabinet or table, only a large water tank in the center of the room, filled with seawater, and a crucible is placed in it. put something.
The potion of the Ocean Singer is made in water, so Linde created such an environment to refine the potion.
In addition to these things in the tank, there is nothing.But on the ground next to the water tank, there were several glass jars similar to the jar of fish brains in Linde's hand.
There was gillweed in sea and mud, mistletoe, and rocatrick beans, and both the pods and the beans in this thing were full of curved spines.
There are also some common ones, such as dried salamanders, and spider eyeballs.
Whether it was the murlocs in the past or Linde now.The collection of this potion is not easy.
It was not difficult for the former murlocs to obtain fresh fish brains and whale blood, but they had to come to land to obtain mandrakes and spider eyes.
The same is true for Linde. Spider eyes, salamanders, and most of the materials can be bought off-the-shelf, but the fish brain has to be killed by himself. As for the whale blood, he hasn't got it yet!His goal this Christmas break is to get whale blood.
As for the mandrake.
The batch planted in the Forbidden Forest at that time should be healed soon. They have been taken care of by the centaur Firenze, and the survival rate has reached an astonishing [-]%.Coupled with the deal with Firenze, Linde estimated that he should be able to get about ten plants by then.
Linde put the fish brain away, and checked the other materials for any problems...
On Christmas Eve, Linde went to Diagon Alley again and got the unicorn skin he made.
Putting it on the skull, Linde was very satisfied.There is nothing to say about Terri's craftsmanship. She took a large unicorn scalp and sewed a small one again.
And at the neck, that is, the part without skin, she also sewed it on with a special technique, which is what Linde said, to completely cover the entire skull.
Linde rummaged around, but couldn't find the sewing thread, and she had also treated the mane. Linde searched for a long time but couldn't find the sewing thread.
After waiting for an unknown amount of time, the body of the piano, that is, the resonance box of the entire piano, was finally completed the day before Christmas!
After that, he returned to Knott Town.Then he entered the suitcase impatiently and began to make the piano.
The forehead was extended by Linde from the bloody horn tip of the unicorn, and then it was connected to the strings.
One end of the string is connected to the forehead on the other side of the animal horn, and the other end is connected to the head of the unicorn, pierced into the skin, and directly connected to the bone under the skin, so that the strings can resonate with the skull resonance box below to produce music .
There are seven strings, ranging from light to heavy. He used one of the unique toughness of the unicorn's cranial nerve, the dragon's heart string, and the tendons of the fire-tailed rat...
These strings are not necessarily connected, and Linde just chooses them for their toughness and sound effect.And if you encounter suitable materials in the future, you can also replace them.
Actually!
There was an idea in his mind...
Then find a way to kill the seven unicorns from big to small, and then use the main heartstrings of these seven unicorns with different thickness and toughness to make unified strings.
But think about it or forget it, it's too difficult.He probably couldn't bear the consequences of slaughtering unicorns.This kind of thing is bound to cause a sensation, and he can't be sure to escape
After connecting these seven strings together, this is a qualified piano.
At this time, Linde was holding Qin and climbing out of the suitcase.
I don't take potions, I don't do rituals, I just play the ball, it's okay!
Linde came out and looked at the scenery outside, a little surprised.
The sun was rising from the sea, and he took out his pocket watch to have a look.Seven fifty in the morning.
Christmas is here.
But of course Christmas is nothing without people.
Thinking about it, Linde held the piano with his left hand, and began to pluck the strings with his right hand.This is the first time he has used this violin. The tone of the violin is better than he imagined, and the overall feeling is more crisp and ethereal.
Does it sound good?What sounds good is a good piano!
It sounds good, but it's a pity that Linde himself is not very proficient in music theory.If it wasn't for Occlumency that reminded him of what little he once knew about guitars, he might have had trouble picking the strings properly.
But at least better than Hagrid!
Thinking about it, Linde recalled a song from the past.The fingertips began to touch the strings, and slowly, they began to pluck as if they were looking for them.
He frowned from time to time, and sometimes he found the tune and nodded again.
After a while, Linde hummed slowly.
when hugging loved ones
wish time would stop
Now I am to my hometown
Like passing by in a hurry...
Unknowingly, Linde closed his eyes and entered the state naturally.
His playing became smoother and smoother, not because his technique became inexplicably better, but because this piano seemed to know what Linde wanted, and it was always actively producing the rhythm Linde wanted.
The heartbeat became faster and faster, and slowly, it reached the same tune with the melody.
……
G
every dream
in the wandering years
make me strong
……
At the end of the song, Linde let out another long sigh.The timbre of the piano itself is not suitable for the ballad from the previous life in my memory, and my humming is also out of tune.
But
He sang very happily.
To use a word from the previous life, it is,
No technique, all emotion.
It's good to have feelings, thinking, Linde slowly opened his eyes.
But there was peace in front of him.
The sea breeze is gone, the waves are gone.
Linde looked, the sea was as flat as a mirror.
Even though he has lived here for so many years, he has never seen the sea so calm.The surface of the sea that is as smooth as a mirror...
"This……"
Linde hesitated to speak.
He's not an idiot, he understands what's going on.
Suddenly his heart became restless.
The sea, you understand me!
Get restless!
Linde suddenly became excited, and Occlumency extracted those memories.
In the previous life, freshman went to play bungee jumping...
Participate in a music festival...
At the age of seven, he was carried by Felix on his Harley, and he flew straight to a hundred yards...
When he was ten years old, Felix was driving a jet ski, and Linde was behind him holding on to the rope, galloping on the water at high speed...
These memories, together with his inner emotions at the time, directly made Linde uncontrollably push his emotions to the highest point again.
He didn't hold the piano upright, and suddenly turned into a murloc.Grab the horn with your left hand, no, that is now the handle of the violin.
The right hand was irregular, sweeping the strings violently.
He stopped humming in a low voice, but opened his throat and roared loudly,
"Among the crowds, there are you and me
Meet each other and think about each other
In the crowd, it's you and me
Pretending to be decent and smiling
……
The inexplicable sea breeze rushed towards his face, violently blowing his back hair back, and the tentacles of his chin waved wildly, and the originally calm sea suddenly churned.
With waves and songs!
They crashed against the cliff, then crashed back into new waves, and they were Lynd's chords—
The whistling of the wind, they were Linde's accompaniment—
"You don't have to say much, you know
What do you and i want to do
Don't care about a lot, let alone be sad
After all, one day you will understand me! ! "
The voice was hoarse, the voice was rough and bold, and the voice it produced was not at all the voice that a 12-year-old boy should have.
Andersen flew out, flying high in the sky, he also opened his mouth wide, followed by a hoarse cry.
The sound of waves, wind and Andersen.They composed a manic song featuring Lynd's vocals.
If anyone came over at this time, he would definitely be infected by Linde's singing. These lyrics and these rhythms would drill into his mind and affect his thinking.
Even if he leaves here after the song is over, in his dreams, in his trance, he will unavoidably echo this song again, recalling this scene...
At the end of the song, Linde looked at the sweeping waves and opened his hands in a hug, as if welcoming the overwhelming cheers from the audience.
The waves submerged him at once, and when the tide receded, the enthusiasm on Linde's face had disappeared.
His state just now was completely the result of his deliberate guidance by reviewing the past with Occlumency, which was not the emotion he could achieve under normal circumstances.
Now the frenzy was gone, the experiment was over, and he had returned to that calm state.
"Moods, songs, melodies, waves—
When I sang "Home" just now, it was because of my feelings for "Family Reunion" at Christmas. At that time, my mood was low and sad.
So then I expressed this emotion with singing, and then reflected it on the sea...
Just like the magic riot of the little wizard, there are strong emotions and magic power, and then the emotions drive the magic power, and the magic power causes changes in the real world.
Later, in order to confirm this conjecture, I took the initiative to guide my emotions, and then turned into a murloc and sang a rock and roll that marked my restless emotions!
As expected, I expressed my emotions through music, and then reached an echo with the sea, causing a reaction on the sea!
In other words, what I'm doing now can be regarded as Ocean Singer's 'Magic Riot'.But I'm not an ocean singer yet!
Then there is only one thing that can explain it. "
Linde looked at the piano in his hand.
This violin is equivalent to a wizard's wand, a tool for casting spells.
But in the records, this does not give him the power to move the sea.Now it should be just a spell-casting device of an ocean singer!
Lin De was a little puzzled, the zither was just a spell-casting tool for the Ocean Singer, but if it wasn't for the Ocean Singer, how could he use the zither to induce the waves and tides!
Obviously the system is different!
It's as strange as a Taoist holding a magic wand for the first time, chanting Tiandi Xuanhuang, and then releasing a floating spell.
Is there something wrong with me or something wrong with the piano!
No, the problem with the violin came from my blood when it was made.
and so.
It's me.
Thinking about it, Lin De breathed a sigh of relief, "If this is the case, then it's normal, because it's normal for me to be abnormal!"
