Chapter 707: The Soul of Music

Just like the old song, the wizard rescued the beautiful princess with a kiss. The king promised him a lot of rewards to thank him, but the wizard said that he wanted the princess to marry him.

Her father said, "No, go away, she will marry a king some day."

A cursed violin, a gorgeous "real" aristocratic dress, a mansion, a ball attended only by the royal family and nobles, this is Mr. Lorraine's thank you to the person who saved his life.

This kind of dismissal made her very unhappy, and she didn't help their family out of money.

She can't see children having broken families. If Mr. Lorraine dies, his three children will not have a father, so pitiful.

While the Venice Carnival isn't over yet, and there will be people in the streets dressed in vintage aristocratic attire, Pomona decides to walk around Venice like a normal tourist, in jeans and espadrilles.

It's very simple, it's convenient to go to the bathroom, wearing that damn skirt requires help for such a simple task, that kind of life is very rich, but there is no freedom at all, and people will become stupid after a long time.

After the meal time, they had lunch on the train. Southern Europeans like to eat rice, a plate of risotto and Linz cake, this is their lunch.

There was no red wine steak or truffle ice cream, so they went back to the private room to take a nap after eating.

Princess Sissi was not very happy after marrying Franz. This is not Franz's problem, but his terrible mother. She is just like the prince's mother in Princess and the Pea. She must marry her son to a wife she is satisfied with. It's just that the queen in the fairy tale wants a real princess, and Princess Sophie likes her sister Helen.

It was Franz who married a woman, not Princess Sophie, he was not interested in Helen, so what if Sophie was satisfied with Helen?

Unreasonable women have no distinction, maybe they are the wife of a wealthy farmer, maybe a professor, maybe a queen dowager, and a naive girl can't think that she must be reasonable because she is born noble or has received higher education.

Pomona herself had done something against Remus and Tonks' marriage, and she would do it again, she was a "professor".

Remus was too old, too poor, too dangerous for Tonks, but she married anyway, and her Patronus changed because of it.

Wolves are very loyal. As long as the mate is still there, most wolves will stay with each other for life. But if the wolf's mate dies, it will quickly re-establish a new spouse relationship.

At the same time, wolves are also ambitious and greedy. Their loyalty to their spouses is not necessarily loyal to people outside the family, animals, and even gods. It is also difficult to obtain their loyalty.

There are many superiors who regard loyalty as a unilateral request of their subordinates, but rarely consider the expectations and needs of their subordinates. Some people can obtain their loyalty by giving enough money, women and power, but some people do not.

Charlie, Pepin, and Charlemagne saw that the Merovingian royal family was weak and deceitful, so they usurped power and the throne together with the Pope. Resisting the heretics became their best excuse. It was the Arabs who helped them. No wonder there will be profanity later. The Holy League exists.

They are already extremely human ministers, if they are given more power, the king can only hand over the crown, this kind of person can only be killed, but unfortunately the last monarch of the Merovingian royal family does not have that kind of skill like Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.

Cao's father and son usurped power just like the founders of the Carolingian Dynasty, but later their family's descendants withered due to internal strife, and finally Sima usurped power.

The painful lessons brought about by the Rebellion of the Eight Kings and the Rebellion of the Five Huns during the Jin Dynasty should have confirmed what kind of disaster the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism would be together.

Both Buddhism and Taoism have no desires, no desires, the pursuit of inner peace, "monastic" practice, and no competition with the world.

But the problem is that being an aristocrat has one's own responsibilities. During the period of the Five Husbands and Chaos China, the northern Han people suffered unprecedented catastrophe, but the "nobles" ran away and traveled southward to the south of the Yangtze River. Maybe they couldn't sleep well and built many temples. Please be at ease.

In such a world of great contention, can seeking an indomitable heart and praying to God and worshiping Buddha repel the nomads?

In the end, it was by killing Hu Ling that the Han people regained their living space, and the civilians who had been tamed by Confucianism to be as docile as lambs took up arms to kill those barbarians.

Both the Carolingian royal family and Cao Wei are very capable and successfully replaced their former masters, but the result was unprecedented catastrophe.

The more complex problems we can solve, the more intractable ones we create.

Theology solves some moral problems and makes people's way of life less depraved. However, after the outbreak of the Black Death, religion has no way to drive away the plague, and the Bible cannot explain why there is such a terrible disease.

So in order to shirk responsibility, they tied the Jews and witches to the stake.

Burn them and the disease really disappears?

No, not really, but people were entertained while watching the public execution, their souls and bodies tortured by the disaster were relaxed, and the original face of human nature was revealed in the stretched necks and smiles.

The devil plays tricks because he thinks it's funny.

According to the composer himself, there is such a bizarre story about the origin of the title Devil's Tremolo. One night Tartini had a dream in which he sold his soul to the devil in return for the devil's willingness to serve him. He gave his violin to the devil to see what good music he could make, and the devil played a sonata so wonderful and so masterful that Tartini was breathless with excitement. . When he was so excited, he woke up, thinking of the scene in his dream, he quickly grabbed the violin and pulled out the sonata played by the devil in the dream from his memory, and wrote it down on the music paper. vibrato".

If the piece is played according to the score, it does not have that kind of magical power. After it was completed, it was not as famous as the pieces of Chopin and Schubert for many years.

It wasn't until the 19th century that a talented violinist Paganini used a 1742 Guarneri violin made by Jesus Guarneri to play it.

Andrea Guarneri is the founder of the Guarneri violin-making dynasty. He and Stradivari are both students of Amati. In order to be different from his father's works, people have Greek on his trademark. The initials "Jesus the Savior of Mankind" (JHS) and a cross, and called him "Jesus" (del Gesu) Guarneri.

The works of Jesus Guarneri are completely different from the creations at that time, but it is a pity that he did not make many violins. In addition, Stradivari's customers were mostly wealthy nobles and royal families, so the violins were better preserved.

Guarneri's violins were relatively cheap at that time, and most of his customers were ordinary musicians, and the protection of violins was not as good as that of Stradivari's customers. There are only about 150 violins made by Jesus Guarneri in the world, each of which is priceless, and every violinist who learns to play the violin knows it.

In order to become famous as an outstanding musician like Paganini, or to play the devil's tremolo as perfect as him, it is a pity that there was no phonograph recording Paganini's music in the early 19th century, and people can only rely on themselves. imagine recreating it.

6 Muggles were turned into ghosts by a violin. If you add the composer himself, 7 of them sold their souls to the devil.

The violin was a soul harvester, and the rational way would be to burn it with the Fiercefire Curse, but Severus wanted to keep it, or as he said, give it to Felicity as a gift.

Ravenclaw's half-breed goblin dean also likes women, but he is too short, knowing that he cannot be favored by women, so he focuses on music.

That black wizard likes to experiment with his colleagues. He often puts psychotropic drugs into Sybil's food. Who told her that her "celestial eye" doesn't work at all times.

"You're such a devil, Severus," she said as she fell asleep, not sure if the dark figure standing by her bed was an old bat who liked to wear black, or something else. thing.

Even she couldn't figure out if she was dreaming.

For all to see, Pomona Sprout, Head of Hufflepuff, was a squat witch whose only beauty was her winged hair, like fairy wings.

How could such a muddy woman be worthy of Severus Snape? The red-haired Lily has eyes as green as a lake. Only such a goddess is worthy of such a perfect love.

As long as a woman loses her beauty, all her values ​​will be denied. The virtues of wisdom, courage, strategy, gentleness, kindness, and cuteness are not as important as a beautiful body.

Even if Mrs. Zabini is a woman, men still have a heart to save her, and maybe she will fall in love with her and turn her back on herself.

But the final result is often used by the "beautiful monster" who is perfect except for her integrity. Like her ex-husbands, she contributes all her property and becomes one of the black widow's food.

The magic mirror reveals the desire deep in the heart. She wants to get rid of this illusion, but the "devil" does not let her go so easily. Maybe he is also having a dream. There is a beautiful, kind and intelligent woman who doesn't care about him. It is not the devil who plays music to the composer, but the angel, who makes the composer hear the wonderful voice from heaven.

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me.

When Severus's magic rioted, she didn't even think about it, just hugged the little murderer with her father's blood on her hands, she hummed a song, this song came from the depths of the forest, it was a natural melody , it quieted the magic that he had lost control of because of his emotions.

The odd thing was that Pomona didn't want to hug the Duke of Lorraine at all, even though he looked like he really needed help at the time, maybe that's why Severus let her stay there, he wasn't at all worried that she would be with his mother , Arianna's mother, was shocked to death by the magic of the riot?

She was very scared. When she saw Mr. Lorraine destroying unscrupulously, she was afraid that he would kill her.

So she could only stand there stupidly without doing anything, Mr. Lorraine adjusted and controlled it by himself.

He gave them these "rewards" as a thank-you gift, any more would be too greedy for them.

The only thing she couldn't figure out was why Lorraine gave such an expensive violin to someone who didn't understand music at all?

Obviously there are so many people in the world yearning for it.
