Chapter 105: Rock 'n' Roll Is Coming to Life

"Bang bang bang!"

"Whoever says the world, everything is good, does not envy mandarin ducks, does not envy immortals..."

"Roar..."

The suona opens, the trombone ends, the drum is the root, the piano is the soul, and dozens of accompaniment instruments are connected in the middle.

At the end of the song, Shen Yiran suppressed the excitement in his heart and walked towards the air swing band for the first time.

This song is adapted from the "Brocade Story" in the traditional Han opera Huangmei tune, the original work is a bitter story of immortals falling in love and not being able to get it, but under the interpretation of the air swing band, the whole song is a little more free and easy, and it also has a little more connotation of fighting against heaven and earth.

"God, God!"

Coming to Bai Yao's side, Shen Yiran applauded and couldn't stop praising him:

"Miss Bai, your adaptation is really amazing, really, I want to apologize to you for my prejudice at the beginning, I'm sorry, I was too arrogant and stupid before. ”

As he spoke, he bowed deeply to all the members of the band.

The camphor is lush, and there is no wind to press the branches.

It was so quiet in the shade that only the intermittent chirping of cicadas could be heard.

"Uncle, you're too polite, then our band is now..."

"Sign the contract, and this concert will be handed over to your band!"

Without waiting for Bai Yao to ask a question, Shen Yiran gave a firm answer, and after speaking, he walked up to the uncles and uncles in the band and continued:

"Teachers, I have negotiated the contract with Bai Yao, and in the next dozens of days, we will officially start rehearsals, although the rehearsal conditions and venues are a bit difficult, but as long as you have any needs, you can tell me at any time, I will do my best to meet them." ”

As he spoke, Shen Yiran reached out and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and continued:

"Here, I take the liberty of asking, I don't know what to call the teachers?"

When the words fell, I saw a slightly chubby uncle in gray trousers standing in the front row put down the drumstick in his hand, smiled and gestured to Shen Yiran.

"This..."

"Uncle, this is my second uncle, he said he was very happy, and said that he didn't dare to call the teacher this title, you just follow me and call the second uncle. ”

Just when Shen Yiran didn't understand what was going on, Bai Yao on the side took the initiative to explain after translating:

"That's right, uncle, I haven't told you, in fact, no one else in our band can speak except me, so let's introduce it to you, this is my dad who plays the accordion, this is Uncle Liu, this is..."

......

......

Bai Yao introduced it quickly, she knew that Shen Yiran must have a lot of questions in her heart at this time, so after telling each member of the band about the names and instruments she was proficient in, she led the other party towards the place where she had talked before.

"I know what you want to ask. ”

Coming to the back of the camphor tree, without giving Shen Yiran a chance to speak, Bai Yao said to herself:

"My dad, my uncle, my second uncle, and everyone else in our band except me couldn't speak, and in layman's terms, they were mute. ”

"Okay, I see. ”

Hearing Bai Yao say this, Shen Yiran nodded, no wonder the band has been so quiet; no wonder when he first met, everyone in the band just smiled and nodded after he introduced himself; no wonder he didn't hear a word from the other members of the band from beginning to end, it turned out that there was such a reason behind it.

"Aren't you curious?"

Seeing that Shen Yiran said something and stopped saying nothing, Bai Yao glanced at him suspiciously.

"Well, I was a little shocked at first, but these are personal matters, I just know that they are very proficient in their instruments, and I admire their musical talent, and other things don't matter to me. ”

After speaking, he yawned and sat down with his back against the camphor tree.

"Shen Yiran, I found you very special. ”

Unlike the previous uncle's eldest uncle for a short time, Bai Yao rarely called Shen Yiran by his full name, and seeing that the other party still didn't have the slightest reaction on his face after hearing his words, the girl sighed a little boredly, and said to herself:

"Forget it, let's introduce you to our band!

Our band was formed a week ago, and all the members are from Yabai Village, Jingchuan County, which was called Dumb Village when I was a child, but later changed to its current name because it didn't sound good. ”

As if thinking of something, Bai Yao sighed and continued:

"There are a lot of mutes in our village, and most of them are men, some people say it's the ancestral grave, some people say it's the water and soil, anyway, there are all kinds of things, so I have investigated this matter deliberately.

My grandfather died early, and I asked my grandmother why, but she refused to say.

Later, I learned that people like my father, my uncle, my second uncle, and other people in the village who were about the same age as them became mute because they were harmed by the method of 'turning on the lamp' to reduce fever by the local doctor when he was a child.

At that time, it cost a lot of money to find a local doctor, and at that time, the family was generally only willing to spend money when the boy was sick, and most of the girls were left to their fate, so like my aunt, they were fine, but my dad... Isn't that ironic to you? ”

Speaking of this, Bai Yao sat cross-legged on the grass, looked up at the lush camphor leaves, and continued:

"My dad left the village before he was sixteen years old and followed a troupe, and later he learned a lot of musical instruments from the master of the scene, and when he was in his twenties, he returned to the village and started a dumb band, mainly responsible for red and white ceremonies, the band had 34 members at its peak, but now some people have left. ”

After a pause, Bai Yao's eyes showed a little tenderness, and said with a smile:

"Dumb band, uncle, you said that on the current TV show, is it possible for them to be crowned with some titles such as pursuing dreams and music not dying?

Haha, but my dad was just trying to make a living for the people in the village who couldn't speak like him.

By the way, uncle, do you know why our band is called Air Swing?"

"Hmm..."

After thinking for a while, Shen Yiran shook his head.

"Stupid, because my dad can't make a sound on their vocal cords, so people can only hear our band if they cause the air to vibrate, as for the swing, it was me at the time. ”

"Oh, so the full name of V8club should be Voice 8 Club. Voice, 8, the same as the bar, right?"

"Bingou! That's right, I chose all these names!"

Speaking of this, Bai Yao's face was full of pride.

"Well, it's not bad, it's very... Imagination. ”

Seeing that the girl put on a look of praising me quickly, Shen Yiran also complimented me a few words, but after listening to the introduction of this band, he had a doubt in his heart, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't help but ask:

"Bai Yao, let me ask you something, why did you form a rock band a week ago?"

The reason why he asked this question was because Shen Yiran was surprised to find that the members of the Air Swing Band were proficient in Western instruments, and they had at least ten years of practice experience to reach this level.

However, it stands to reason that apart from the drum kit, you basically don't need any other instruments for red and white ceremonies.

"Because dead rock 'n' roll is coming back to life!"
