At the start of the luncheon, there was no lack of people waiting to welcome them.
Bai Ruyue sat there obediently as she listened to the group of people bullsh * t for a full quarter of an hour. Finally, after Lord Commander gave a yawn and grabbed his chopsticks, he had no choice but to start eating.
As the song and dance began, the bell began to chime.
The aristocrats' etiquette and demeanor began to show, one after another. The crown prince's displeasure at having his limelight stolen from him by a certain Overseer, also finally disappeared into thin air after a cup of wine had been respectfully welcomed.
Could it not dissipate?
All of the princes and descendants consciously toasted the crown prince, leaving Ye Feng, this pretentious guy, hanging in the air.
Therefore, monkeys were monkeys. In any case, they were not true kings!
After Bai Ruyue stuffed a peanut into her mouth, she looked at a certain Overseer with some sympathy.
"Ahhh!" Suddenly, a certain Overseer cleared his throat and interrupted the Kabuka show, as well as Zhong Ding's melodious performance, "Duke Yi, your zither skills are so outstanding. Just drinking with Your Highness is too much fun.
Duke Yi Sha Yanliu was startled, then nodded: "That's right, today Yan Liu, His Highness the crown prince and all the royal grandchildren are all coming to hunt, and we can only have fun together.
Sha Yanliu did not plan to show off his zither skills in front of others. After all, he was not some expert in music.
However, since someone had mentioned it, he couldn't not agree. Since they had already said that it would be a form of entertainment for His Highness, he naturally only had the rights to play it.
"Great!" It is said that the Duke Yi's zither skills are outstanding. It is truly a happy matter to have you to help them get their spirits up, sorry for the trouble. "
The Crown Prince was very polite. The servants quickly went to get a zither and set up a stage in the middle of the stage. A zither covered with purple light was placed on top of the stage.
Bai Ruyue raised her brows.
Good zither!
With just a glance, Bai Ruyue knew that this guqin was worth a lot.
The purple light was a type of divine wood that took at least five hundred years to create.
As for the zither head's zither, she knew that it was the zither created by the zither master, Yinyin.
She immediately glanced at Overseer, hoping that he would understand that this "avenger" of hers, Alexander, was able to increase the level of her zither by at least thirty percent. She didn't even have a decent zither, and although she had the confidence to compete with this person, it would definitely be a slap to her face.
She didn't want to put herself in a situation of hatred for others.
However, Lord Commander actually grabbed the chopsticks and heartily ate and drank, not even sparing the guqin a single glance.
Sigh!
Bai Ruyue's heart was filled with bitterness. She was hoping that an outsider from the Rhythm School would understand her difficulties, but she was also drunk!
"Duke Yi, could this zither be Ao Ya?" Overseer did not know what was good for themselves, but there were still people who knew what was good for them, and the crown prince had a look of joy on his face.
"Your Highness, last month, my master passed this zither to me!" Sha Yanliu said with a face full of pride: "The reason why I brought it along this time around, is because I want to use this zither to lure the demon into the hunting grounds for Your Highness!"
"Alright!" The Crown Prince was so happy that he slapped the table, "This is such a good idea!" At this moment, what will Yen Liu play for me? "
"At such a joyous and joyous time, let's play a song, 'Flower of the Spring River'!"
After Sha Yanliu finished, he stood up and washed his hands of the Crown Prince's praise, then returned to the zither stand and sat down cross-legged.
The two strings of the zither were strung together, and the noise was removed. Following that, a string of melodious sounds swayed, as if the bright moon shone in the sky. After a short pause, waves began to rise from the melody, as if clear and melodious waves were rippling …
The zither notes lingered in the air as everyone seemed to have left the bright afternoon, blending in with the beauty of the moon.
As the wind danced and the clouds scattered, the water rippled. In the darkness of the night, the pleasure boats glimmered with neon lights as the birds chirped and danced.
As the group entered the zither music, it was as if they saw an illusion. All of them seemed intoxicated, as if they were guarding the night scenery by the river, intoxicated by the flowers, the moon, and the birds' intimate embrace.
Bai Ruyue lightly bit her lips.
Sha Yanliu's zither skill was a stage higher than Hu Yinyin's, and with Ao Ya's help, the entire concept was completely immersed in the sound of the zither strings scratching at each other, bringing the person into the moving Yue Ye.
Bai Ruyue knew that as long as one was not someone who was completely unable to adapt to the music, they would all enter the country at this moment. This was because even a normal person would know that the music was pleasant and intoxicating, no matter how beautiful it was.
However, a certain Overseer was not included in this list.
He wasn't like the others who got drunk after entering the city for a while. Instead, he twitched his mouth in disdain, while his eyes fell on Bai Ruyue's body, using his gaze to pressure her.
You beat him for laozi!
Overseer did not say anything, but Bai Ruyue felt that this was the only thing she heard.
She bit her lips again in difficulty, then moved her lips towards Duke Yi's zither one last time — — She had a zither! Baoqin!
Overseer closed his eyes and started drinking the wine.
Bai Ruyue cried in her heart once again — Damn it! You want me to take revenge on your behalf and suppress others? You should at least give me a sharp weapon, right? Do you want me to take a broken guqin and fight with them?
Bai Ruyue was very worried.
In her rage, Sha Yanliu's strings were strumming faster and faster, Bai Ruyue knew that she was reaching the end.
What should he do?
Bai Ruyue was really worried.
She subconsciously glanced at Hu Yinyin, who was sitting at the same table as her, and wanted to borrow the zither from her. However, when she thought about the discontented look in Hu Yinyin's eyes just now, she felt that it would be better not to make things difficult for herself.
The sound of the hook pressed down on the zither. The sound came to an abrupt halt as the song came to an end.
In a flash, everyone returned from Yue Ye to the luncheon, feeling as if they were in a dream, and couldn't help but loudly praise her.
"Duke Yi's zither skills are unparalleled! You must have already stepped into the second level, right? "
In the zither realm, the first was physical sensation, the second was hallucination, and the third was Meng Xin.
To put it bluntly, it was a first stage zither technique. One could feel the intent behind the zither music, for example, Hu Yinyin's zither technique, was first stage large success!
The second level of hallucination was when the zither music fused with nature, allowing one to trick others into entering the realm.
At that time, one of her songs tricked the autumn cicadas, and they all thought it was late autumn but were scared to death. Furthermore, this song, Yue Ye, actually tricked everyone into thinking it was Yue Ye.
The third stage was the zither skill, Meng Xin. A single tune could cause a person to be like a dream, unable to wake up even if they didn't cry out. It took a long time for someone to be free from the Zither Stage when they were in the Drunken Life and Death Stage.
For example, for those three months when he didn't know the taste of meat, even if his heart was still in the zither realm and couldn't be removed, he was still like a walking corpse.
In terms of zither skills, Bai Ruyue had long reached the peak of the third stage.
However, she could not use it. The third stage was not something that could be avoided with a talented master like you!
It would take at least ten years for him to master the Intoxicated Zither Technique!
Therefore, she could not reveal herself in front of everyone!
But not to be exposed, they still had to win, especially since the other party had Baoqin s in their hands …
Bai Ruyue lowered her head. She felt that she couldn't do it.
"Duke Yi's zither skills are indeed outstanding, but you might not know that there is another person in our seats with good zither skills!" At this moment, the voice that Bai Ruyue did not want to hear the most appeared.
