Chapter 1805: The Baltic Sea Finds Old People
According to Gu Xiaobai's experience, every time he travels to a new era, he always encounters little moths.
Either early or late.
And since he traveled to this era, maybe the little moth has already arrived.
So where will the little moth be?
Gu Xiaobai's idea is that as long as a legendary singer like Xiao Mozi appears once, she will definitely cause a sensation among the people. Even if decades or hundreds of years pass, there will still be people in the places where she appeared.
The legend about her.
Even if she doesn't appear on a large scale, maybe some people have seen her in the circle of musicians.
But how to find Riga’s circle of musicians?
Gu Xiaobai's idea is very simple. There is no online shopping in this era. Regardless of whether they are court musicians, folk musicians, or even aristocratic music lovers, they always need musical instruments, and musical instruments also need consumables.
As for musical instruments and consumables, they can only be received by your ears. People who are not familiar with the industry can easily be deceived. Even if you are a big-name musician, in most cases, you have to buy and select by yourself, so there are some musical instrument stores and musical instrument markets.
, it will definitely be a gathering place for musicians.
And now, Gu Xiaobai finally found such a place.
The old man playing the violin at the door of the store saw Gu Xiaobai walking over with the instrument on his back, put down the violin in his hand, and asked: "Guest, what do you need?"
Gu Xiaobai handed over the white erhu "Wu Ming" on his back, and then said: "I want to match this piano with two strings..."
The old man saw the instrument wrapped in cloth and said:
"Strings? What strings? If they are violin strings, I have excellent gut strings here, from famous Italians. The sound is exceptionally bright and mellow, and the price is very reasonable. I am not bragging. I have the largest supply around the Baltic Sea.
Business, half of Europe buys goods from me. In addition, I also have some very rare cow intestine strings. This kind of string has not been made by anyone for a long time..."
The old man did not look down upon Gu Xiaobai because he was wearing a sailor's rough clothes, but introduced him very seriously and proudly.
But after he carefully saw the shape of the cloth-wrapped instrument, he paused.
After all, this shape of musical instrument does not look like a common musical instrument.
He took it with both hands, then carefully placed it on a table in front of him, and went to untie the cloth wrapping the instrument.
Taking this opportunity, Gu Xiaobai said: "Old man, I want to ask someone, have you seen an oriental woman holding a red silk ribbon recently?"
In fact, Gu Xiaobai came here to buy strings. He just took the opportunity of buying strings to inquire about the news.
You can't just buy nothing, just ask others for news.
"Oh? What kind of woman? How old is she? What does she look like?" the old man asked casually.
"She must be in her early twenties now, and she always has a bun on one side. Her singing can make even the solid ice melt, even the stones bloom, and even the deaf can sing.
I was moved to tears by her..."
The old man raised his head in shock and looked at Gu Xiaobai.
Next to him, a customer who seemed to be buying a musical instrument turned his head and looked over, sneering: "There are still people like this? How can a deaf person hear the sound?"
"If it's her, then even a deaf person can hear it." Gu Xiaobai shook his head.
Because humans never only use their ears to hear sounds.
Sound is a mechanical wave that even the deaf can feel.
It is said that after Beethoven lost his hearing in his later years, he held a chopstick between his teeth and leaned it against the piano to listen to music.
And Gu Xiaobai has no doubt that the little moth's singing can move even a cage.
The old man did not question Gu Xiaobai's statement, but frowned and said: "If you talk about recent times, I have never seen..."
"Actually, it doesn't have to be recently, it could be decades or even hundreds of years ago..." Gu Xiaobai said.
"Tsk..." The customer buying musical instruments next to him laughed again, "You are really interesting. How could you find someone who is in his twenties and who appeared decades ago?"
The old man didn't know what he thought of, and hesitated to speak. Then he lowered his head again, slowly unfolded the cloth wrapped with the erhu under his hand.
Then he hissed and took a breath of cold air.
Next to him, the customer who was buying musical instruments also suddenly widened his eyes: "Oh my God, what kind of musical instrument is this!"
His exclamation attracted the attention of many people who were looking at the musical instruments or who had just arrived.
As soon as their eyes came over, they couldn't move away.
It is true that this erhu "Wu Ming" is completely white, but white in its own style. It is really beautiful.
The texture of the albino bamboo, the transparency of the night-shining mane, the warmth of the beautiful white stone, the dryness of the white animal bones, the sparkle of the thousand-year-old gloomy wood vapor-deposited diamonds, the matte color of the white python skin...
So many materials are combined to form this unique white erhu.
Not to mention, the manufacturing process of this piano is absolutely impossible in this era.
There is no gold, silver or precious stones, so it is not at all as gorgeous as the Western style inlaid with gold and jade, but it is shockingly beautiful.
Holding the piano, the old man's hands were shaking, and then he put it down hurriedly, as if he was afraid that he would accidentally drop the piano.
Several people nearby had already begun to look at Gu Xiaobai.
Wearing ordinary or even shabby sailor clothes, but having such a beautiful piano?
How is this possible?
Some people were already whispering to the people around them, with a trace of greed in their eyes.
It is said that wealth is not revealed in vain. Even the most ignorant person will be attracted to this piano and unable to take their eyes away the moment they see it.
This piano is absolutely priceless!
"Guest...you..." The old man looked up at Gu Xiaobai and said helplessly: "If you had known that this piano was so valuable, you should have told me that I shouldn't have opened it here..."
Gu Xiaobai smiled and seemed indifferent.
It is said that people with good skills are bold, and others may worry that someone has evil intentions in life.
Gu Xiaobai’s words…
Maybe he just wants someone to have evil intentions.
Gu Xiaobai himself has not forgotten that he still has a musical instrument trial.
The so-called musical instrument trial is, of course, beating someone with an instrument.
For example, during the previous guzheng trial, Gu Xiaobai just played the song "Zheng Ming Sword Flashes in LY City" and knocked down all the guzheng masters in LY City. From then on, he became the top guzheng player in the guzheng circle.
When the sacrifice came out, everyone in the world was dissatisfied and gave a thumbs up obediently.
In the same way, if you complete the Erhu test, you will of course hit someone with the Erhu.
Otherwise, how can we make everyone work hard to take it orally?
However, this time Gu Xiaobai killed so many people with his erhu, and the system actually said that his trial has not been completed yet?
Mouth!
This is simply intolerable!
