Jiyucho is still a paradise for "dreamers".

Ball-rolling, stilt-stepping, sword-swallowing, meteor-juggling, and all kinds of performers are still working hard to attract the audience's attention and rewards.

It's just that today, they were robbed of the limelight by a newcomer.

On the corner of the long street, the crowd formed a circle, all looking at the new "performer".

It was a strange man who couldn't tell his age, unkempt, I don't know how long he hadn't washed and combed, his black face, and his ugly facial features that couldn't be concealed.

The eyes are one large and one small, one side is bloodshot, the pupils are white, and the mouth is cracked, revealing a mouthful of teeth, full of yellow spots.

This face is already unbearable to look at, coupled with the rickets on the back, like a camel, the right leg is weak, and he walks with a limp, this kind of guy belongs to the most miserable and weird group even in Liberty Town, where strange people gather, and it really attracts a lot of attention.

The strange man holds a piano in both hands, with the sycamore as the face and the catalpa wood as the bottom, the whole body is black lacquer, the curve is smooth and full of charm, and the two sides of the strings are engraved with complex flowing water lines, which is eye-catching.

There is a wooden sign inserted in front of him, which reads "Desperate, betraying the ancestral phoenix mingqin".

The crowd was full, vying to judge the appearance of the weirdo.

"How can there be such ugly people in the world?"

"yes, when I go back at night, I'm going to have a nightmare!" A girl covered her eyes, complaining and peeking, and her companion next to her showed pity.

"This person is too miserable, no wonder he is desperate and wants to sell his ancestral property, but it's a pity that I am shy in my pocket, otherwise I have to help."

In the crowd, there were also people who knew the goods, and they looked at the ancestral qin in the hands of the strange man from a distance, their eyes showed greed, and they whispered endlessly.

"It looks good, if it were cheap, you could buy it."

"This guy looks so miserable, he probably waits for money to save his life."

There are many people with similar thoughts, and a young man with an explosive head boldly pushed away the crowd and walked in front of the stranger, "This ...... Dude, how do you sell the piano? ”

"You want to buy it?" The strange man raised his head and looked at the young man with the explosive head, his voice was very strange, sharp and high-pitched, not old, with an ugly face, it was particularly infiltrating, the young man couldn't help but want to retreat, but he forcibly held back and didn't make a fool of himself in front of everyone.

The exploding head had fire in his heart and asked sharply, "What, aren't you going to sell?" ”

The strange man nodded and grinned, "You can try it, as long as you can play this piano, you can take it away without a penny." ”

"Don't you have to pay a penny?" The exploding head was overjoyed and stretched out his hand to try, and in the crowd, the pot also exploded.

Some people regret it and hate that they didn't come forward earlier and take advantage of this, while others show curiosity, thinking that there must be something strange about this piano, so there will be a saying that you can take it away after playing a song.

The strange man offered the piano with both hands, took the lyre with the exploding head, sat down directly opposite him, put the piano on his knees, and put it in a posture, a posture to show off his skills, but when he touched the strings, he changed color.

"This ......" the young man raised his head, glared at the ugly monster in front of him, and shouted: "You are fooling me? This is a wooden string, how can you play it? ”

Hearing that this was the case, the surrounding discussion stopped.

"What, Wood String? What the hell is that? ”

"Isn't this a trick? I knew there was no such thing in the world! ”

There was a lot of discussion around him, and the strange man's face did not change, and he retrieved the qin from the young man's hand, "This is the piano of the avenue, the strings are the sound of the avenue, containing the wonder of heaven and earth, and those who are not virtuous cannot make a sound." ”

"What, the sound of the avenue?"

"Coaxing, huh?"

Everyone didn't believe it, and the young man shook his head and left, with the expression of a fool. Seeing this, the strange man looked up to the sky and sighed: "The world has fallen, the people's hearts are not ancient, I don't know when I can hear the sound of the road again?" ”

"When will you smell it again? Have you really heard of it? A big man with sideburns came out of the crowd and pointed at the strange man, "You ugly monster, you come here to make a fool of yourself, what do you want to do?" ”

The strange man still looked up to the sky, lonely and cold, only slightly oblique, and glanced at it, and the big man with sideburns felt cold behind his back, and he didn't dare to make a sound.

"This piano contains the truth of the avenue, the princes are afraid, and the world is resting, I was lucky to hear it once when I was a child, the sound of the piano sounded, there were hundreds of birds to come to the court, and the beam did not go for three days, worthy of the name of the phoenix! Since then, it has been difficult to smell again, and I regret it for the rest of my life...... Is there no more virtuous person in this world who can play the sound of the Great Dao? ”

The strange man looked up to the sky and sighed, and the voice came out from afar, and the audience was shocked.

The big man with sideburns who had just come out was frightened by the strange man's glance, and the crowd at the scene began to suspect that although this person was very ugly and looked pitiful, he was actually extraordinary, and he couldn't say it...... Where did the Taoist master come from, the great sage of the game world, looking for people who are destined here?

If you can play this piano, maybe you can get a great opportunity?

Some people are eager to try, but think about it, the wooden string is not something that people can play, if this is a test and chance, there must be another mystery in it?

Many people are deep in thought and want to solve this puzzle. A middle-aged man dressed as a businessman with a fat body came out, smiled and saluted the stranger, "This gentleman, you said that if you can play this piano, you can take it directly, don't want a penny, then ...... If you can't bounce it and want to spend money to buy it, how much do you have to spend? ”

Awakened by this sentence, the crowd fell into discussion again.

"Yes, you can buy it directly!"

"Why didn't I think of that?"

In a wave of regret, the strange man nodded at Shang Jia and raised a finger.

"One? Is one how much is a copper? ”

"How can it be so cheap, at least a silver coin?"

In the midst of speculation, many people suddenly gasped, and the fat merchant sweated on his forehead, revealing a resolute expression, "A gold coin? OK! ”

The strange man still shook his head, glanced at Shang Jia, and said regretfully: "This qin is an ancestral heirloom, worth a hundred gold!" ”

Shang Jia was so shocked that he took a few steps back, shook his head again and again, and returned to the crowd without speaking, and there was an uproar around him.

"Hey, you're not here to cheat money, are you? Pull a bunch of what you don't have, and you want to make a hundred gold? Do you know what the concept of 100 gold is? ”

"Your piano is made of good material, it is a first-class wood, and the craftsmanship is also good, but one gold may not be worth it, and you actually sell it for 100 gold? Do you think you can fool stupid people by making up a story? This kind of thing is not popular in this day and age! ”

If it is a gold, for the sake of possible chance, maybe there are still people who dare to bet on a shop, but they can ask for a hundred gold, which is a huge wealth that ordinary people can't accumulate in a lifetime, at least here, no one wants to bet so big!

People who want to find something else and gamble on the opportunity have retreated, and most of the onlookers regard the ugly monster as a liar, some leave directly, and some still hold the mentality of watching the play and continue to watch.

The strange man looked around, saw that no one dared to step forward again, his face was sad, he held the qin in his arms, and sighed sadly: "The avenue is wasted, and people's hearts are ruined!" The whole world is turbid, the world is long, and no one is qualified to talk to me, alas, alas! ”

This long groan, a thousand turns, stirred in everyone's ears, making people suspicious, and for a while their mentality swayed back slightly, from firmly believing that this person was a liar, and once again doubting that he might really be a hidden master?

However, no one in Liberty Town can take a huge sum of money!

More and more people gathered, but the scene quieted down, the strange man held the piano and looked up to the sky, and the crowd was silent, but they didn't expect a shout to suddenly sound.

"I bought this piano!"

There was a thunderous sound that shook the audience, and a heavy money bag flew over everyone's heads and landed in front of the strange man, making a crisp sound that showed that it was full of coins.

It happened suddenly, and the crowd became even more curious.

"Does anyone really buy it?"

"Who is so rich?"

"Where did the fool come from, who actually spent 100 gold to buy a broken piano that he couldn't play? Want to go crazy for chance? ”

Compared with a strange person who seems to have some ability, the rich fool who can spend a hundred dollars is undoubtedly more eye-catching, and the crowd is sensational, only to see a young man in white, standing out of the crowd.

The young man's facial features are upright, and he can be said to be delicate in the ordinary, if he is elsewhere, he is definitely not handsome, but at the moment when he throws a bag of coins with a big hand, he adds a bit of temperament in the eyes of everyone, and feels that he is straight, and the whole person is full of confidence, always holding his head high and looking at the world, like a towering figure.

The body is obviously just a cloth shirt, the style is ordinary, but it is not simple, but it seems to be a plus, a little more chic and uninhibited, free and easy to not be bound by secular rules.

Bearing the eyes of the crowd, Bai Yefei walked in front of the strange man, glanced down, and said with a smile: "I want this piano." ”

The strange man looked up at the visitor, pursed his lips, and stared: "Huangkou Xiaoer, are you worthy?" ”

Bai Yefei shrugged his shoulders, dismissive of the disdain for the weirdos, "You don't care if I'm worthy or not, if my money is worthy?" ”

The strange man was stunned for a moment, then picked up the money bag and shook it in front of everyone, in the eyes of others, it was indeed heavy.

Opening the money bag, the strange man grabbed it casually, pinched a few gold shining coins and came out to check, and the onlookers took the opportunity to see clearly, and what was taken out of the bag was indeed a genuine gold dragon coin, and there was an uproar.

"What is the origin of this person, he can really afford a hundred gold coins?"

"Spend 100 dollars to buy a piano that can't be played, which son's son is so magnificent?"

The well-informed person shook his head and said: "I haven't seen it, it's not like the local son of Yingdu, is it that he came to attend the prince's birthday banquet from somewhere else?" ”

The strange man checked the money bag, nodded and said, "It's indeed a hundred gold coins, okay, the money and goods are both good!" ”

Qin was handed over, Bai Yefei took it in his hand, looked at it slightly, and smiled confidently: "It turned out to be this thing, I have only seen it in books before, and I don't want to have the opportunity to see the real thing." It's not in vain, young master, I'll come to Liberty Town for a walk. Yingdu is all-encompassing, there are many opportunities, and it really deserves its name! ”

"Do you know Feng Mingqin?" The strange man asked in surprise, and Bai Yefei smiled: "Not only do I know, but I can also play." ”

"Can you play?" The weirdo was even more shocked, "Then you can play it to me now, I don't want the money." ”

Bai Yefei shook his head with a smile, "Not now." The phoenix qin is a sacred object, containing the avenue, and cannot be sounded lightly. I might be ready to spend the night. ”

"Then ......," the strange man thought for a moment and said, "You can play it to me tomorrow, and if you can really play the sound of the Great Dao, I will pay you back." ”

"It's a deal!" Bai Yefei laughed and said: "Tomorrow at noon, Crayfish Hutong, you come, I'll play it to you." ”

The two of them asked and answered, and their voices fell into the ears of the surrounding crowd, which immediately aroused their interest.

"What kind of harp is this?"

"Don't play a double reed, right?"

Some people doubted, and some people said: "Didn't people say that they would play it tomorrow, and when the time comes, they will see it, and they will know that it is?" ”

"That's right, I'll see the real chapter tomorrow, I want to see how I can play this impossible wooden string piano!" The previous explosion head nodded, and many people also expressed that they wanted to hear the sound of the Great Dao Lun in the mouth of the strange man.

Ignoring the discussion of the masses, the strange man still looked like he didn't care, just looked at Bai Yefei, who turned to face the crowd and invited loudly: "If you are interested, you can come and see for yourself tomorrow, listen to it with your own ears, I am waiting for you in the alley." ”

After saying what he had to say, Bai Yefei turned around and left, walked through the crowd, got into a carriage and left.

The crowd watched Bai Yefei leave, and then turned back, only to find that the strange person who sold the piano was nowhere to be found.

The interest of the crowd at the scene was more eager, and they were all full of interest in tomorrow's performance, and they met to see it with their own eyes......
