Chapter 7 Stringless Guqin
"It's an elm head."
In the practice room of the Si Le room, the old man in charge of teaching the guqin glared at Su Yue.
Su Yue's two paws trembled and rested on the strings, not like playing the piano, but like two chicken paws that were about to be sent to the board.
The old teacher really didn't see it, so he took out an iron ruler and hit the back of Su Yue's hand.
Listening to the sound of a voice, there was no red mark on the back of Su Yue's hand, and the iron ruler of the teaching was broken in response.
Teaching: ......
Su Yue: ......
"Mr. Gu, why don't you hit me with a spiritual weapon, ordinary mortal iron can't hurt me." Su Yue looked at the iron ruler and said embarrassedly.
"Hmph, the iron ruler is not to hit the students, it was just a warning. But you, who don't even know the basics of piano art, how can you catch up with those masters who have practiced piano art since childhood in a short period of time? Hurry up and explain to you Director Xiao, let's change someone else when the time comes. Gu Jiaoxi said bitterly.
Su Yue thought to himself, I want to change, but he doesn't agree with the system. You said that Yan Qitang is not good at what he is proficient in, not proficient in the guqin.
"Gu Jiaoxi, this task has come down, and it's not easy for me to change, do you see any quick way?"
Su Yue licked his face and asked in a low voice.
"There is no quick way to say what kind of skills. Whether it's cultivation or piano skills, don't insult the old man. ”
Gu Jiaoxi waved his sleeves and left angrily.
Su Yue had a bitter face and sat on the ground without an image. She thought that if Gu Jiao couldn't learn it, wouldn't anyone else be able either? You can't hang yourself from a tree.
So, Su Yue left the Yan Mansion and went to Longsheng City, where the Yan Mansion was located, to find a teacher who was willing to teach him patiently.
But first, you have to buy yourself a piano.
Su Yue went to the largest piano shop in the city, and then secretly wept in his heart at the lowest price piano inside.
Although Su Yue is a maid, he also has a salary every month, and since the start of training, he has doubled his salary. In the two months combined, a total of forty-five taels of silver were given. This is already considered high in an ordinary city. But this is in Longsheng City, where immortal cultivators and mortals live together, although the silver taels can be used, the value is greatly reduced.
And the cheapest piano in the whole piano shop actually costs 90 taels of silver, which is a high price that cannot be seen in other cities.
Just when Su Yue was at a loss, he saw a little girl about the same age as himself outside the store, standing at the door with something in her arms, arguing with the guys in the store.
“…… This is not garbage, this is the most important relic of my father, if it wasn't for the change of medicine for my friend, how could I have sold this piano. ”
The little girl wore a double bun and a dark blue coarse cloth skirt, and said loudly while holding the burden in her hand.
"You say it's a treasure piano, but there's no place to press the strings on it, so what's the use of leaving a piano board for nothing?" The guy sneered and retorted.
"Yes...... However, when Daddy played it, this piano had strings. I don't understand why the strings of this piano suddenly disappeared. ”
The little girl said aggrievedly, her eyes slightly red.
"Okay, it's a small treasure that I don't know, you can find a piano store that knows the goods." After that, the guy ignored the girl and turned around and went back to the store.
After Su Yue heard it on the side, he had the intention to buy it. With this board, it is not enough to find someone to press the strings.
"Little sister, I don't know how you sell this piano?" Just do it, Su Yue immediately stopped the little girl and asked.
"Little sister, do you want to buy a piano? This piano is not cheaply sold, and forty taels and one points cannot be less. The little girl said earnestly with her reddened eyes.
Su Yue smiled and said, "Forty taels, I'll give you money, I bought this piano." ”
Su Yue said and took out the hot forty taels and stuffed them into the little girl.
The little girl nodded the number, then nodded and said, "It's all ten taels of small silver ingots, and the number will not be wrong." ”
After speaking, he handed the piano to Su Yue.
Su Yue got the piano and immediately unwrapped the package on it, and then saw a black and shiny piano board with some strange patterns engraved on it. It looks a little like a formation.
"Just find another place to press the strings." Su Yue touched the body of the piano and said.
"This piano is a spiritual weapon, and it has no strings......"
A clear male voice suddenly sounded in his ears, and then Su Yue saw that a pair of white and jointed hands crossed over his head and touched the piano he had just bought.
Su Yue turned his head and looked up.
I saw that this was a young man in a cyan robe, and what caught his eyes was a pair of clear and gentle eyes, and slightly reddened smiling lips. A black hair was neatly tied into a simple bun with a green jade headband, and the remaining green silk fell behind him.
When Su Yue saw this person, his first reaction: This is a rich man!
Well, it's not that the son is not handsome, you see that the little girl who sells the piano has been stunned.
Because Su Yue is closer to this son, he can clearly see the texture on the other party's cyan clothes, which is made of cyan silk brocade woven with good spider silk, and some green bamboo textures can be faintly seen on the clothes, which are not embroidered, but deliberately used different shades of cyan spider silk to weave into such a pattern when weaving silk brocade.
"Are you a descendant of the Yan Mansion?"
Just as Su Yue was estimating in his heart how much silver the other party's robe was worth, he saw the boy open his mouth to ask.
"Yes." Su Yue replied
In fact, it is no secret that many people in this Longsheng City know the standard clothing of the servants of the Yan Mansion. Just now, Su Yue was touching the piano shop east and west, but she didn't pay for it, and the shopkeeper didn't blow her out, also because she was wearing the clothes of a servant of the Yan family.
"You've got a good eye and luck. If it weren't for the fact that this artifact doesn't like to change hands frequently, I would have wanted to buy it from you. ”
The young man in Tsing Yi stroked the piano lightly, but heard that although the piano had no strings, an extremely harsh sound sounded, which startled Su Yue.
When the boy in the green shirt heard it, he smiled: "What a fierce man." You can try it. ”
After speaking, he looked at Su Yue and pointed at the stringless piano with his finger.
Su Yue looked at this stringless piano suspiciously, and at this time knew that he had bought a treasure. Hearing the words of the boy in Tsing Yi, he gently touched the piano with his own hand, only to see that there was nothing on the surface of the piano just now, and the strings and shafts appeared, and the appearance of the shaft and strings was also strange, and three of the strings and the shaft were glowing with cyan, yellow, and blue light respectively. The remaining two strings turned out to be bone white, and they didn't look like strings, but like thin bones.
"Earth, water, and wood are the three spiritual roots? If the five spirit roots can be lit up, but it seems that you have other better talents. The boy in the green shirt pointed to the two bone-white strings and said.
Su Yue followed his fingers to look at the two bone-white strings, and then touched one of the bone-white strings with his hand.
"Ding~" A crisp guqin sound sounded, and then I saw the building of the piano shop just now collapse.
Inside, the shopkeeper escaped from the inside, looking at the collapsed industry in horror.
"Shopkeeper, what's going on?" The guy looked at the other stores that were fine left and right in surprise, and then looked at his own store, a little confused.
The shopkeeper ignored him, just looked at the qin in Su Yue's hand, and said in surprise: "Pull the silk qin?" But the silk piano shouldn't have that much power. Unfortunately, it has changed hands. ”
The shopkeeper glanced at Su Yue, who looked confused, and said sadly.
The guy glanced at the qin, which was judged to be garbage by himself before, and it was so powerful at this time, only then did he know that because of his shallowness, he had missed such a spiritual weapon.
"I just don't understand why I touched the little girl who sold the piano, and it didn't change." The guy looked at the silk piano and muttered.
"The silk qin is the most eccentric qin in the cultivation world, it doesn't like single spirit roots, if I read it right, the little girl who sells the qin should be a single spirit root of the wood system. As for you, you are a mortal, and you were not optimistic about this piano before, as a proud spiritual weapon, of course I will not choose you. ”
The boy in Tsing Yi replied to the man's words.
"Boya, sub-period, bosom friends are hard to find, this person who buys the piano has the right qualifications, and knows the treasure, and is willing to buy a piano that seems to be a waste product at a high price. This is the destiny of heaven, and I don't force it anymore. I only hope that the person who buys the qin can really give full play to the strength of this silk guqin. The shopkeeper sighed.
Several people sighed a lot about Su Yue's purchase of the piano.
Only Su Yue was confused, and he bought the piano at a high price, isn't it because the price of your piano shop is too high? It turns out that the 90 taels of piano may actually be sold for less than 45 taels in other places.
Su Yue secretly scolded the price cheating father in this Longsheng City.
