Chapter 62: Erhu
Inside the old castle, a piercing sound kept ringing from the top of the castle, and the sound was a bit loud, and the people of the whole castle could hear it.
"This voice is so ugly, Young Master Allen has no musical talent at all. ”
The guards and companions stationed on the first floor of the castle muttered quietly.
The companion nodded approvingly, and got two strips of cloth out of nowhere, crumpled them into balls and stuffed them into his ears.
The sound was high-pitched, piercing, and I don't know what instrument it came from, and it was distinctly different from the bard's harp.
If it's good, it's fine, but the sound is very ugly, sharp and piercing, like two kittens constantly fighting in people's hearts, it's very uncomfortable to listen to.
The sound had been ringing since the end of breakfast, and it had not stopped until now, and the soldiers were a little unbearable, but it was their nominal master who made the noise, and they had to endure it if they couldn't bear it.
Compared to the guards standing guard on the first floor of the castle, the servants in the castle are much freer, and the underground areas that no one likes to go to in the past have now become the objects of competition among the servants, or some of the more soundproofed rooms have been cleaned by them several times...
However, unlike others, Rowan who came to report did not find this sound so ugly, or rather, although it was ugly, it was very attractive!
At this time, on the terrace of the castle, Rowan had basically forgotten the purpose of his previous visit, and looked at the figure of Allen facing him on the side facing the sea in front of him.
"This... Is it magic?"
At the edge of the terrace, Alan sat on a small chair and struck a posture of holding something and pulling the strings, a gesture that Rowan had never seen before, but that wasn't the point, the point was, Alan didn't have anything in his hands!
Just holding the air and playing out of thin air!
If there was no movement, Rowan would have felt that the young nobleman in front of him was not thinking again, but the extremely loud and piercing sound around him could not be faked!
"Can magic still do this? Why did Mentor Raphael never mention it?"
Under Allen's introduction, Raphael has become Rowan's magic teacher.
It's like Allen, who taught two hours a day, not that kind of apprenticeship.
It's just that, unlike Alan, Rowan usually addresses Mentor Raphael as a sign of respect.
Rowan was already considered an apprentice in spells under Allen's teaching, so Raphael's teaching him was not a foul.
As for one more way to make money, he is naturally happy, it is only two hours a day, and it does not take up his entertainment time.
Although Rowan was in pain because of the employment money of five gold coins per month, he chose to hire without hesitation.
Compared to later achievements, money is really not very important.
Their employment relationship has been going on for a while, so Rowan is not a rookie who doesn't know anything about magic, and it is because of this that he expresses surprise at Allen's behavior at this time.
The modern magic system of earth, water, wind, fire, and their variants, light and darkness, life, and a mysterious soul system are what Raphael taught.
But what is this department in front of you?
Wind, Soul, or Hybrid?
It doesn't seem to be, Rowan thought about it for a long time, and he didn't know what kind of "magic" Eren was using at this time.
But that was the end of his musings, and a strange rhythm suddenly came from all around him, slowly drawing him in.
I don't know when, the harsh sound around has turned into another kind, although it is not very good, but I can barely hear the rhythm of the voice, crisp, lingering, and a trace of .... Childlike?
What Rowan had thought in his heart had been abandoned by him unconsciously, and he had gradually been attracted by this peculiar voice that was becoming more and more pure, which he had never heard before, but it was strangely good.
The attentive Alan naturally didn't notice at this time that his loyal subordinates had somewhat transformed into loyal listeners.
He was sitting on a chair with Erlang's legs crossed at this time, trying to maintain the continuity of the magic in his mind, and at the same time, he pulled the erhu with a feeling that was getting more and more comfortable.
That's right, this sound that no one can understand is actually not emitted by the musical instrument that exists in this world, but the Chinese musical instrument in Allen's memory of his previous life-erhu.
In his memory, he didn't actually know how to play the erhu, but the magic magic instrument in his hand was a little different from the real one, although it also relied on the movements of his hands, but the thoughts in his mind could also affect it!
It's just that because of the need to maintain the transmission of mana, the sound that Eren played before was terrible, but now he has gradually adapted to another application of magic tricks to continue to transmit, so the sound of the "instrument" in his hand will become more and more beautiful.
Magic tricks, this spell can be called omnipotent, and playing music out of thin air is one of them.
It's just that Alan has never tested this ability in the past, and today he is a little bored, so he suddenly wanted to prepare for an erhu performance.
The maintenance of mana has stabilized, and bursts of mana fluctuations that ordinary people cannot detect continue to emanate from Allen's arms, and his hand movements have gradually become more and more regular.
Bursts of pleasant sound emerged from it, spreading from the terrace throughout the castle.
The people of the castle, who had been tormented by the noise, had chosen to ignore the previous uncomfortable situation, and all listened intently to the new music coming from the top of the castle.
The music is clear, simple and clear, crisp with a hint of lingering, and beautiful with a little play.
If there is someone from Allen's previous life here, you will hear that the music that Allen pulled out with "erhu" at this time is actually very famous, and even everyone knows it!
It's a pity that the widely sung lyrics didn't come out of Alan's mouth, and people naturally wouldn't have seen how catchy and crisp the childlike music composed of the king of beasts was...
As the music became complete, the erhu sound that had tormented the people in the castle for half a morning faded away, and finally disappeared completely.
Many people sighed in amazement, they had forgotten the torture of the past, and all that remained was the beautiful rhythm.
It's not a great piece of music overall, but it's not as fresh as it gets, whether it's music or instruments.
"It doesn't seem to be the style of the stars. ”
A servant who had studied music for a while came to this conclusion.
"I haven't heard that the young master has been to other countries?"
The other servant was a little puzzled.
"It's stupid, can't it be that bards from other countries have seen the young master. ”
A servant followed and looked at his companion with disdain.
“....”
Unheard music caused a stir in the castle, but Alan on the terrace at the top of the castle would not hear it.
He had put away his magic by this time, stood up and stretched, and then looked at Rowan who came to his side.
"It seems that the situation has basically stabilized in the past two days, has something happened again?" he asked, a little puzzled.
Rowan nodded, he actually wanted to ask Alan what the magic was before, but seeing Alan ask about work, he still held back his curiosity.
Instead, he reported the purpose of coming here.
"The mercenaries are starting to clash with each other. ”
