Nanyang Mantra: the Campus Secret Mantra in Singing
by Ye Yuxin
About This Novel
"Thirteen-year-old Ruan Xing heard that song without beginning or end for the first time under the camphor tree of Nanyang Middle School. The tune was weird, like it leaked from an old tape, mixed with the chirping of cicadas and entered her ears, but it left a shallow mark in her heart. At that time, she only thought it was a prank played by a senior senior. Until many years later, the bronze bell that her grandmother gave her before her death suddenly trembled on a rainy night, and she hummed the exact same melody. Three words are engraved on the inside of the bell: Nanyang Mantra. As the song revived in her memory, the neglected details on campus began to become weird - the old photos from the 1950s locked in the archives, the girl in the photo looked almost the same as Ruan Xing; after self-study every Wednesday night, there would always be wrong chords played in the piano room, and the rhythm coincided perfectly with that song; and the transfer student Lin Shen always handed her a cup of milk tea at the right temperature when she was getting closer to the truth, with something more incomprehensible than the singing in her eyes hidden in her eyes. It turns out that youth is never pure white. That song is the key to unlocking not only the secret of the Nanyang Curse, but also the code about loneliness and redemption hidden by a group of teenagers as they grew up. Ruan Xing clutched the bell tightly, knowing that she must follow the song, even if the end point is the shadow on the back of youth that she did not dare to think about. " This version strengthens the details of the campus scene, makes the relationship between "Singing" and "Nanyang Curse" more concrete, and also adds the interaction of youthful characters, which not only retains the sense of suspense, but also brings the delicate tension of growth. If you need to adjust the focus (such as highlighting the rhythm of puzzle solving, or adding a youthful emotional line), you can tell me at any time~
