The Grand Steward of the Royal Palace asked for twenty of the most skilled musicians, and the director of the Rite Chambers found twenty musicians and handed them over to the Grand Steward.

The chief steward said to the twenty musicians, "Take your best instrument and come with me." ”

The director said next to him, "Boss, these people are left......"

The chief steward said: "Continue to stand by, no one is allowed to leave without my order!"

Xia Yu and Gong Yu continued to stand in the courtyard, and after less than half an hour, several musicians ran back in a panic. These musicians were among the twenty musicians, and they were all terrified, and they were wounded and covered in blood.

Someone asked the musicians, "What about the rest?"

"All dead, all dead, all dead...... these musicians went crazy, obviously frightened beyond imagination.

Xia Yu frowned, thinking to himself that the musician played music, how could his life be in danger?

At this moment, the chief steward came over in a huff, stepped forward and gave the supervisor a resounding slap in the face, and shouted, "You idiot, what kind of waste you have chosen for me." Choose me another 20 musicians, remember, you have to have the kind of real talent to learn!"

The Director covered his face, blinked, stared at the crowd, and picked it up. Just now, the supervisor selected 20 musicians, and the ones selected were all his cronies, and now the supervisor has selected musicians with real talents and learning.

The supervisor picked and picked eighteen people, and there were two people left, and the director's gaze swept through the crowd, and finally landed on Gong Yu and Xia Yu's (shēn).

"You two come out," the director shouted pointing at Gong Yu and Xia Yu.

Although the director didn't know what the chief manager wanted the twenty musicians to do, it could be seen from the (shēn) of the musicians just now that this was a dangerous errand, and it was most appropriate to give this kind of errand to Xia Yu and Gong Yu to do.

Twenty musicians were chosen, and the chief steward shouted, "Take your best instrument and come with me." ”

The musicians turned (shēn) to get the instruments, Gong Yu and Xia Yu ran to the warehouse, and in the face of the dazzling instruments in the warehouse, Xia Yu committed a phobia of choice, which one should be taken?

At this time, Gong Yu shouted outside: "Xia Yu, come over and help me help." ”

Xia Yu glanced at it, Gong Yu was holding musical instruments to load on the flatbed car, and these instruments were all repaired by the fragments brought by Ronggui.

Xia Yu shouted: "Brother Gong, there are so many good musical instruments in the warehouse, what are you doing with all this rags?"

Gong Yu said: "These musical instruments are not broken, they are all treasures, help me load them in the car." ”

Xia Yu helped Gong Yu load all the repaired musical instruments onto the flatbed, and then pushed the flatbed away.

Eighteen musicians with musical instruments arrived, just sent Xia Yu and Gong Yu, the chief manager was so anxious that he was about to get angry, Xia Yu and Gong Yu ran over with a flatbed truck.

The chief steward looked at the instruments on the flatbed truck, looked surprised, and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Gong Yu said: "These are all instruments that I am good at. ”

The chief manager frowned and said, "Let's go, let's go, let's go." ”

Looking at the tattered cart pushed by Xia Yu and Gong Yu, the rest of the musicians and musicians couldn't help laughing, this is for sale

What about rags or playing music?

Xia Yu and Gong Yu pushed the flatbed cart, followed by the chief manager and the eighteen musicians, trotted all the way to the gate of the palace (diàn).

The palace is the place where the king summons his ministers and entertains foreign guests, and it is the most solemn and sacred place in the entire palace and even the whole country.

The chief manager whispered to Xia Yu and Gong Yu: "You guys are waiting here, I'll go in and report it." ”

The chief steward ran into the big (diàn), and after a while, ran out again and asked, "Which of you is a senior musician?"

After a moment of hesitation, five men timidly raised their hands.

The chief steward waved his hand and shouted, "You five come in with me." ”

Five senior musicians followed the chief manager into the big (diàn) with the instrument, Xia Yu and Gong Yu stood outside (diàn), and after a while, they heard the sound of the instrument in the big (diàn), the sound of the instrument was very fierce, with a bit of murderous aura.

Suddenly, several screams rang out, the music stopped abruptly, and the musicians outside (diàn) looked at each other and shuddered.

Xia Yu saw the servants carry out five stretchers from the big (diàn), and on each stretcher lay a person, covered with a white cloth, and the white cloth was stained with blood, and it was obvious that these five people were dead.

The chief manager Tie Qing's face turned blue, and he walked over and shouted at Xia Yu and Gong Yu: "You guys hold musical instruments, come with me." ”

There are dozens of steps outside the palace (diàn), Gong Yu and Xia Yu carried the flatbed car up the steps, put the flatbed car in the corner, and then followed the chief manager into the big (diàn).

There is a person sitting in the center of the big (diàn), it is Jiang Xiang, the king of Chengping, on the right side of Jiang Xiang sits a row of people, who are the envoys of the barbarian state, and on the left side of Jiang Xiang sits a row of people, who are the ministers of the Chengping Kingdom.

In Qingzhou, in addition to Chengping, there are several small barbarian states, collectively known as barbarian states.

There were pools of blood on the floor in the center of the big (diàn), and the servants were bent over, kneeling on the ground, diligently wiping the blood. Jiang Xiang and the ministers of Chengping State had a gloomy face, while the barbarian envoys were smug.

The envoy of the barbarian state said: "People say that Chengping is a state of etiquette, poetry, books, etiquette and music, proficient in everything, we have long admired it, and now (rì) see it, the skills of the Chengping national musicians are indeed not flattering." King Chengping, did you hide all the masters of Chengping Kingdom, and you were reluctant to let them show up?"

Before the barbarian envoys could finish speaking, several barbarians after (shēn) burst into laughter, mocking the words of qíng.

Jiang Xiang glared at the chief manager, gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice: "Do you just watch these barbarians mock us Chengping Kingdom?!"

The chief steward wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, this time we will definitely trample on the arrogance of the barbarians. ”

The chief steward called five musicians and said to the barbarian envoys: "These five are all senior musicians of my Chengping Kingdom, and I want to ask you for advice. ”

A tall, thin and tall old man with gray hair behind the barbarian envoy (shēn) stood up and said, "Old and rotten Lu Shang, there will be five of them in a while." ”

Lü Shang walked to the center of the big (diàn) with a piano in his hand, and the five musicians took their respective instruments and stood opposite Lü Shang. The two sides looked at each other, and sparks burst out in their eyes, and within this big (diàn) was a battlefield.

Lu Shang sat on the ground and began to bow his head and play the piano, at first, the sound of the piano was melodious and very beautiful, but as he played, the sound of the piano became rapid and urgent, and turned into a sharp blade, flying towards the five musicians (shè).

The five musicians set up their formations, played their instruments, and began to face each other. The five instruments in the hands of the five musicians played five sounds, and these five sounds turned into five weapons, and flew towards the sharp blade turned by the sound of Lu Shangqin.

Six kinds of weapons hovered over the big (diàn), stirring together, clanging, and inseparable.

The people in the big (diàn) stared at the weapons that were fighting in the air, sweating in their palms, and they were so nervous that they were about to suffocate.

After dozens of rounds of fierce fighting, with a bang, the six weapons were wiped out in the air, blowing up a wave of qi and agitating (dàng).

If it weren't for the fact that the palace was strong enough, the raging air would have torn off the roof.

After a battle, the five musicians were tired and sweating profusely, panting, but Lu Shang was calm and relaxed, his face did not change and his heart did not beat.

A smile appeared on the corner of Lu Shang's mouth, and he continued to play the piano, and this time, the sound of the piano turned into a fierce tiger and pounced on the five musicians.

The five musicians gritted their teeth, played their instruments, and the music turned into dogs, wolves, lynxes, tanuki cats, and foxes, and pounced on the tigers.

The five musicians were almost exhausted, and they held on, turning their music into war beasts. However, their music was too weak, and the war beasts that were conjured up were also withered, thin, and weak.

The dogs, wolves, lynxes, tanuki, and foxes were torn to pieces by the tigers as soon as they fought with them. The tiger rushed straight to the five musicians and pounced, and the five musicians couldn't dodge, screaming, and were pounced on by the tiger.

The tiger tore and bit the five musicians (shēn) and bit the five musicians into a blur of blood (ròu), and even if they did not die, they became wasted.

Lu Shang pressed the strings, the tiger disappeared, looking at the bloody five musicians on the ground, Lu Shang pursed his lips and said: "King Chengping, I'm sorry, on a whim, I forgot to stop and accidentally injured five friends, I'm really sorry, I'm sorry." ”

The monarch of Chengping was so angry that he gritted his teeth, this Lu Shang killed the musician in front of Jiang Xiang in Chengping Kingdom, and said such cool words, which was obviously bullying no one in Chengping Country!

Lu Shang looked at the unconvinced Chengping people and said, "If any friend likes it, just come up and talk to me, and Lu will accompany you to the end." ”

Xia Yu was enraged by Lu Shang and wanted to go up to teach Lu Shang a lesson, but the chief manager glared at Xia Yu and shouted, "Don't move without my order!"

In the contest with Lu Shang, Cheng Pingguo has already lost several games in a row, he can't lose anymore, he can't lose face anymore, and the general manager wants to send a reliable master to the game, defeat Lu Shang in one fell swoop, and save face.

The chief manager walked to the seat of the minister of Chengping on Jiang Xiang's left side, and said to a person: "Ouyang San, now is the time for you to make a move." ”

Ouyang San, who used to be a musician at the Rite Music Workshop, has now been promoted to the director of Yuefu, mainly responsible for teaching students, and rarely plays music.

Ouyang San stood up, walked to the center of the big (diàn), hugged his fists at Lu Shang, and shouted, "In Xia Ouyang San, I will be fortunate to meet you." ”

The chief manager shouted at Lu Shang next to him: "Lord Lu, didn't you say that our king hid all the masters, and now I will invite a master to let you see and understand." ”

"Oh, that's good, the old man likes to learn from the master the most," Lu Shang looked at Ouyang San, his eyes revealing murderous intent.

Xia Yu and Gong Yu were standing in the corner of the big (diàn), and when Gong Yu saw Ouyang San, the god (qíng) was very surprised.

Xia Yu looked at Gong Yu and asked, "Brother Gong, do you know this Ouyang San?"
