"OK"
Long Yu still accepted the challenge calmly, but asked with a playful expression:
"The judging will be conducted by the elders of the sect. However, since your son is a challenge, it should be interesting to add some stakes. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Xu Shengjie was stunned for a moment, and understood that what Long Haotian said about betting was to add some luck. He murmured in his heart that if he lost, he would not only lose face but also lose the luck, but the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. Thousands of pairs of eyes were staring at him. If he didn't agree, he would look timid.
"Okay, what's the prize?"
"If it's money, I'm afraid you can't get it. How about letting the loser call the other party grandpa when they see each other in the future?"
Long Yu said playfully.
Xu Shengjie looked around, and countless eyes looked at him with support and affirmation. He had an idea and said:
"No problem, but I have a request, that is, the judging should be decided by a vote by the many disciples of our Shenyuan Sect. Because the Shenyuan Peak Arena Competition is a challenge between disciples, the judging should be decided by the disciples. "
Long Yu was startled and glanced around the arena. Most of the disciples were staring at him with expressions of laughter.
If everyone were to vote for whose music is better, even if his musical talent is obvious to all, most people would definitely vote for Xu Shengjie, and some people would definitely tell lies.
However, what Xu Shengjie said is not unreasonable. The Shenyuan Peak Challenge Arena is a legal place for disciples to resolve disputes privately. Elders are generally not qualified to participate. Unless it is an arena competition organized by the sect, they will be sect elders. review.
Glancing at the elders on the stage, they all nodded, expressing their agreement with what Xu Shengjie said.
"Okay." Long Yu knew it was a trap, but still readily agreed and asked:
"How to compete?"
Xu Shengjie stretched out two fingers and said loudly:
"It's divided into two rounds. In the first round, you and I each play a musical instrument, and in the second round we each sing a song. After the competition, the winners will be determined by votes from fellow brothers and sisters."
"Okay, please go first!" Long Yu smiled and made a gesture of invitation.
"Okay! Then I'll show my shame."
Xu Shengjie looked very humble and polite. He picked up the recorder and took a deep breath to calm down.
Everyone held their breath and listened with all ears.
The sound of the flute floats in the distance, like a breeze in the mountains, blowing the dust in people's hearts, making people feel extremely peaceful and comfortable.
The sound of the flute is sometimes clear and clear, like the chirping of birds in the morning, bringing people a touch of warmth and hope.
The ethereal sound of the flute is like an ancient legend, bringing people into a mysterious and beautiful world.
As the song gradually ended, the disciples of the Shenyuan Sect burst into enthusiastic applause and praise. Xu Shengjie showed a proud smile on his face, cupped his hands in all directions, and said:
"This flute is still too old. If there is a better one, I believe it can give everyone a better and more melodious performance. Thank you again for your applause." Then he looked at Long Haotian with a proud look and disdain.
The noise around him stopped, which meant that it was time for the Crown Prince to perform, but the Crown Prince smiled, and the applause sounded discordantly at this moment.
"Pah! Pah!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on him. Long Yu smiled, clapped a few times, and then said:
"Yes, but compared to my musical attainments, you are a bit immature." Everyone looked doubtful.
As he spoke, he slid his fingertips. After a flash of spiritual light, a strange musical instrument appeared in Long Yu's right hand! .
Gourd-shaped, with a round hole in the middle and a handle in the middle. There are six steel strings on the handle ranging from thick to thin. There are countless brass protruding "frets" from wide to narrow inside the handle.
--Guitar!
Yes, this is the "guitar" that Long Yu made together when he went to the weapon refining shop to make the "Taishan Sword" after killing the Purple Blood Spider in the secret realm. This is from the earth in the previous life. a musical instrument, too
One of the hobbies of "Chen Haotian" in the previous life, this was the first time that he showed Zijin's unique musical instrument in front of everyone.
As soon as the guitar appeared, everyone was stunned because they had never seen such a weird thing. After a brief silence, there was a lot of discussion.
"Then...what is that?"
"I don't know, but it seems to be a spiral harp type!"
Countless people started talking.
Among the people present, only Zhou Qingmei knew that this was a musical instrument, and that this instrument was no worse than the spiral piano, because she had seen this thing in the secret realm of Moyuan Cliff, and Long Haotian could actually remember her unique "sonic wave" with a photograph. "The Art Society."
"Sister Mei, is Long Haotian's an alternative to the spiral piano?" Zi Yu asked when Zhou Qingmei looked at Long Yu with fiery eyes, because among the sisters, Zhou Qingmei studied music, so she should know better.
"No, it's a unique musical instrument owned by ***father. It seems to be called...guitar...yes, it's called guitar."
"Guitar...?" Long Wan'er heard this, and she, Mu Chunxue and others also murmured this name.
While they were discussing, Long Yu on the stage plucked the strings, which immediately made everyone hold their breath. There was no more noise, but everyone twitched their lips, because it didn't make a note, and it jingled.
Long Yu, on the other hand, reached out to the headstock of the guitar and slightly adjusted the scale of each string. He was making preparations before playing. Because he hadn't played the guitar for a long time, the scale was not accurate and he was debugging.
At this time, countless people had already looked at him with disdain and disdain. It seemed that they felt that the instrument of the Crown Prince did not have a unique or elegant sound, because the current sound was completely incompetent and beautiful.
Long Yu adjusted the scale in a few seconds, and then gently plucked the strings.
"Dang Dang Dang, Dang Dang Dang..."
The performance officially started, and everyone was immediately refreshed and listened with great respect.
As the strings are plucked with the waves of your fingertips, since the material of the guitar is made of the whistle of spiritual animals, and with a little spiritual blessing, the sound is loud and distant, enough to be heard within a radius of ten thousand feet, and even the entire Shenyuan Sect. The sound of his guitar playing was far more than a hundred times stronger than the sound of Xu Shengjie's flute that could only cover the arena.
Long Yu played "Spring River with Flowers and Moonlight Night" from the earth. It is a string quartet of "Spring River with Flowers and Moonlight Night" written by the famous Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Ruoxu. It is a classic in traditional Chinese music and is played in the classical way on guitar.
This piece is for a string quartet, performed by four instrumentalists.
At the beginning of the music, the crisp and smooth melody shows the beauty of the spring river and the moon, just like the tranquility at night and the slight ripples on the river, which seems to bring people into this deep state.
Then, the smooth fingers of the guitar continued like a "pipa", playing a melodious melody, further strengthening this emotion.
On this basis, the notes played by Long Yu bring a deep emotion and at the same time bring a more complex musical feeling to the piece.
Then, the third part of the piece changes and once again plays a beautiful melody, but this time they add some variations and changes in rhythm to the melody, making the piece more colorful.
Finally, the climax came, and all the players gathered together to express their love for the moonlit night on the spring river and the beautiful life with their most beautiful skills and most sincere playing.
The whole piece of music ended in a climax, leaving the audience immersed in the wonderful world of music. Everyone did not come back to their senses for a long time. They were still thinking about the artistic conception of the music just now, forgetting to applaud and praise, and the scene was silent.
The song "Moonlight Night on the Spring River" is played by Long Yu on the guitar. It vividly expresses the yearning and love for the "Moonlight Night on the Spring River" and a beautiful life, and expresses a deep and romantic emotion. It is an indispensable masterpiece in traditional Chinese music.
"It's your turn." Long Yu looked at Xu Shengjie and reminded him, indicating that he would sing after it was his turn.
Hearing this, Xu Shengjie came back from his daze and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. In fact, the winner was already decided, but there was still one round of singing competition. He took a deep breath, cleared his throat, and then mustered up the courage to continue the competition.
Try it.
Because he knows that even if Long Haotian is still a dark horse in the next round of singing, the support rate of everyone is still on his side. This is a matter of connections, because nine out of ten disciples of the sect are right The crown prince, Long Haotian, was unhappy.
Xu Shengjie took out a memory crystal and played the background music, and then he passionately started singing an inspirational song from Tongtian Continent.
The main idea of the lyrics:
"Success is far away, and dreams are calling. We must not lose hope or faith. Only by perseverance can we succeed in cultivation. Let us move forward and fight for the future."
After singing, it actually led countless disciples to follow and sing.
The scene was filled with excitement and enthusiasm, which proved that most of the people cheered and encouraged him.
Xu Shengjie played a classic piece from this world. The sound of the flute sounded like the sound of nature, making people unable to extricate themselves and imagining that they were in a world of struggle and struggle.
"The music is like the sound of nature, melodious and melodious. Senior Brother Xu is indeed a talented person!"
"Yes, he is indeed the number one talent of our Shenyuan Sect. His musical talent is extraordinary."
There were cheers and shouts all around, and Xu Shengjie enjoyed this treatment very much.
As the curtain came to an end after the enthusiasm was high, most of the people continued to focus on the prince with disdain and laughter.
There are also some female disciples who admire and support Long Haotian. After all, Long Yu is handsome and talented, and he is also unconventional, novel and alternative. They wave the flag and shout:
"Come on, Your Majesty, come on, Your Majesty...!"
This scene made more male disciples secretly dissatisfied. They didn't know it, but they were shocked to see that most of the female disciples of Shenyuan Sect were encouraging and supporting Long Haotian.
"Support the crown prince...!"
Several male disciples shouted excitedly, but the shouts became smaller and smaller, and then stopped abruptly, because the surrounding male disciples who supported Xu Shengjie's side stared at them with ferocious faces, which immediately made them feel uneasy.
Long Yu still took out the guitar from the earth and showed it in another world. He did not choose to use the memory crystal stone to play background music, but planned to play and sing.
After taking a look around, there were still classmates who supported him. Long Yu felt warm in his heart, a slight smile appeared on his face, and then he started his performance.
"Thank you very much for supporting me. I will take this opportunity today to bring you a very moving song. I hope you can feel the spirit of a sailor with me, persist in fighting, and meet the challenges of the future."
Long Yu first introduced the song "Sailor", which is a classic earth pop song composed by Zheng Dada.
After hearing the introduction, Zhou Qingmei had already taken out a memory crystal. She knew that her godfather's songs were definitely classics, so she made preparations in advance and planned to record them for collection.
The lively music uses "overtones" on the difficult guitar strings to play the intro, coupled with the passionate lyrics and melody that gradually burns.
Immediately, Long Yu struck the guitar cabinet with his fingers or palms while playing, making a rhythmic sound similar to a drum set (guitar beat), which was equivalent to the effect of a guitar playing a band.
It's refreshing for people in this world because they have never heard this type of music, and the lyrics are very inspiring and melodic.
lyrics:
"I always imagine that there is another world at the end of the ocean, and I always feel a sense of emptiness for no reason. When I am half asleep and half awake, I seem to hear the sailor saying again, he said that the pain in the wind and rain is nothing. Wipe away your tears and don't be afraid. At least we still have me..."
