Su Yi smiled freely, and he naturally would not be stingy with praise for Su Shi'er. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

But ordinary words of praise were no longer enough to express Su Yi's state of mind, so he closed his eyes and carefully recalled the rhythm of Su Shi'er's "Spring and White Snow", and only opened his eyes for a long time, looked at Su Shi'er's snow-like white dress, and glanced at the grapes on the stone table and plate with dewdrops of different sizes, and remembered a poem in his heart.

So Su Yi pondered for a while, and then said:

The warm jade pipa is cold and the moon skin is generally like snow reflecting Luo.

Hold only the spring song, play as the size of the beads in the plate.

When the words fell, the two daughters were slightly stunned.

"That, that, what does this poem mean?" Su Shi'er looked confused.

"Sister, Su Lang is complimenting you on your beauty. Liu Xinzhao said with a smile.

"Huh, aren't you complimenting me on how well I play the lute?"

Su Yi and Liu Xinzhao smiled and said nothing.

Su Yi quickly thought in his heart: "The music of the Bingfeng Continent is divided into two categories: 'Wenqu' and 'Wuqu', most of the functions of Wenqu are to stimulate morale, or to add various abilities to allies, and some Wenqu has the special effect of interfering with the enemy, while Wuqu focuses on killing the enemy; A morale-boosting effect, and the second half freezes enemies, especially against highly mobile enemies like the Barbarians. ”

"Yangchun White Snow" was originally a guqin song composed by the Chu Chinese musician 'Shi Kuang' in the Spring and Autumn Period, but it is more charming to play with the pipa, although the effect of "Yangchun" has been reduced, but the killing effect of "White Snow" can be significantly improved; many guqin songs in the Bingfeng Continent, such as "High Mountains and Flowing Water", "Pingsha Falling Geese", "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats" and other literary songs, as well as "Guangling San", "Wind and Thunder Yin" and other martial arts songs, can be played with the pipa, not only the effect has changed, but also the power of disturbing the enemy and killing can be raised to a higher level. ”

Su Yi remembered the characteristics of the pipa again.

"Compared with the guqin, the pipa has a wider range, higher pitch and crispness, and is very expressive, which is the first of the national musical instruments; and the pipa can play a more compact and dense rhythm, which is very suitable for showing the tense scenes of martial arts battles; and the guqin can play the tunes, the pipa can basically be played, and it has a unique charm, but the reverse is not. ”

And one of the main advantages of the pipa is that it is easy to carry, you can play it when you hold it, it does not hinder your footsteps, and you can also play it on horseback; It's just that if the musician fails to understand the charm of the music, it will just be an ordinary tune when it pops up. ”

"I heard that a sage used the pipa to play the "Wind and Thunder Yin" of the Five Realms of Music, and killed more than a dozen heads in an instant, and the corpses of other low-level barbarians could be piled up on a hill, which was spectacular; although among all the forces to kill the enemy, the power was the most powerful, but the large-scale killing effect of Wuqu was far better than the former, and the power was higher than that of the same level of military literature, and the penetrating power of the sound was second to none, and it was difficult to defend; Wuqu had almost no other shortcomings except that it was difficult to get started and had a slow effect. ”

And Su Yi remembered the development history of the pipa, and an indescribable smile rose at the corner of her mouth.

Su Yi said to Su Shi'er: "Sister Shi'er, although your playing skills are good, the quality of this pipa is too poor to fully play the charm of "Yangchun White Snow", wait for me to give you a better pipa in a few days." ”

"If you want to buy a new lute, you should never choose something that is too expensive. Su Shi'er thought of this first.

"No, not to buy it, I'll make you one. Su Yi smiled inexplicably.

Liu Xinzhao's eyes lit up and asked, "Su Lang, could it be you...... Do you want to remodel the lute?"

"Well, I have that idea, but I'll wait until I'm done to explain it to you. ”

Just do it, Su Yi left the pavilion and walked to her room, leaving the two daughters looking at each other, not knowing what he was going to do.

When he returned to the room, Su Yi thought: "In fact, the earliest pipa is far inferior to the guqin, in addition to being easy to carry, there are almost no more advantages, the amplification effect of playing the literary song is very weak, and the killing effect of playing the martial music is only better than nothing, almost abandoned by the human race;

"It can be seen from this that the higher the quality of the pipa, the greater the special effect of the music, but it is a pity that the pipa style of the Bingfeng Continent is still in the Wei and Jin dynasties, and has reached the bottleneck of improvement, and many musicians think that it can no longer be changed;

Su Yi turned out the style map of the pipa of the later generations in the Yanhai Monument, carefully compared the pipa of the present world, and had some enlightenment in her heart.

"The current pipa is a four-phase nine-fret, and the vocal range is still slightly barren, while the later pipa has been increased to six phases and twenty-four frets, and the shape has also been slightly changed, not only has a wider vocal range, but also has richer overtones, which can greatly enhance the penetrating power of the music, and can almost treat the enemy's defenses as nothing. Su Yi felt a little excited in her heart.

The "frets" and "phases" of the pipa are those pieces of wood that are placed on the panel and pressed under the strings.

Since it is to improve the pipa, it is natural that the classic music of later generations cannot be left behind.

"There are three major martial arts songs in later generations, namely "Ambush on Ten Sides", "Overlord Unloading Armor" and "General Order", compared with "Guangling San" and "Wind and Thunder Introduction", the power is only stronger than not; Shocking, and the latter with Xiang Yu as the protagonist, fully showing the despair of the Chu army being besieged on all sides, the style is dull and tragic, and my plot is based on Chu Han, with these two martial arts, maybe it can play a strong effect. ”

Thinking of this, Su Yi's desire to learn music was even stronger, but the top priority was to ask the craftsman to create a pipa in the form of a masterpiece for later generations.

Su Yi began to draw drawings, including the structure and material selection, and marked them meticulously.

The main body of the pipa is made of rosewood wood and has the best timbre, but Su Yi knows that there is also an extremely peculiar wood in the Bingfeng Continent, called "Phoenix Fire Sycamore", which can reflect a sound similar to the phoenix's chirping when it vibrates, and the highest quality Phoenix Fire Sycamore can even add double the power to the martial arts, which is the preferred material for the best pipa.

It's just that Fenghuo sycamore is very rare, and it has no price, and Su Yi's current net worth alone can't afford it, so she still uses rosewood as the main material.

"I heard that when a musician achieves a certain extreme achievement in music, he can shape the blank tire of a 'sharp weapon' instrument in the training ground, and then after several years, or even decades of cultivation, during which he can be born with a sharp instrument without neglecting the practice of musical art; if he plays a piece of music with a pipa that has been turned into a sharp weapon, it can enhance the effect of the music by one to nine times according to the different grades of the sharp weapon, and the power is extremely amazing. ”

"It's just that under normal circumstances, a person can only give birth to a sharp weapon in his life, and the 'ultimate achievement' in various fields is not so easy to achieve, so the sharp instrument pipa is extremely rare, and most of them are collected by the descendants of musicians or famous families, and the sharp instrument pipa circulating in the market is even rarer, if I meet it in the future, I must not miss it. Su Yi secretly made up her mind.

After drawing the drawings, Su Yi wrote a few more reply letters, and then informed Su Shi'er that she set off for Craftsman Street in Nancheng District.

The master of the carpenter's shop was obviously also an expert in building musical instruments, and he understood Su Yi's drawings at a glance, and although he was a little puzzled by the peculiar shape of the new pipa, he still took the job.

After receiving the drawings, the prestigious master asked for 1,700 taels of silver, which almost didn't make Su Yi stare out of his eyes.

"A good pipa is more expensive than a courtyard house. Su Yi slandered in his heart, fortunately, he was no longer the poor boy he used to be, so he paid on the spot, and finally agreed to take it three days later.

Later, Su Yi came to the "Dengyun Pavilion" of the Gongjia and used the carrier pigeon to send a reply to a group of acquaintances in Sushui County.

There were a total of seven letters, and Su Yi was asked for seventy taels of silver, and looking at the bill in front of him, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

One tael of silver is equal to one thousand yuan, and the value is almost equal to one thousand yuan in later generations, and you can buy six or seven hundred catties of rice, that is to say, Su Yi will spend 10,000 yuan for each letter.

"No wonder Du Fu would write 'The beacon fire lasts for three months, and the family letter is worth 10,000 gold', at first I thought that Du Fu was singing the praises of the preciousness of the family letter, but it turned out that he was mocking the cost of sending the letter! If the border pass is thousands of miles away from his hometown, and a soldier uses a carrier pigeon to send a letter to his family, the whole family must not go bankrupt?

After doing all this, Su Yi boarded the carriage and went home, he didn't want to waste the slightest study time.

Throughout the day, Su Yi exercised in the courtyard, and then used her ability to read in the training ground.

The slanting sun returns to the mountain, and the flames fill the sky.

After dinner, Su Yi received an invitation to the banquet.

Because Su Yi is the protagonist, she has to participate, otherwise this banquet will not be able to start, and it will inevitably refute the face of many people.

And the venue for the banquet was in the Qinhuai Tower in the port north of the city, and since it was within the coverage of the power of the Martial Temple, there should not be any danger-Su Yi thought so.
