Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month

"What are you doing?"

Chen Ye looked at the buckets on the ground and felt countless little question marks appearing in front of his eyes.

For those who don’t know, they might think that there is some kind of array to subdue demons and eliminate demons here...

"Just in case of emergencies!" Old Erhu said in a very matter-of-fact tone, which made Chen Ye almost think it was his own problem.

Chen Ye said with a smile: "Even if you want to store water, can't you just use a larger one to store it? Why do you need to divide it so much?"

"Didn't the dog take the bucket away last time? Be more prepared this time to avoid getting up early in the morning without water."

"..." Chen Ye couldn't find any reason to refute for a while.

His eye of luck fell on the old man Erhu, and suddenly he frowned slightly, noticing something unusual about the other person's aura.

In that golden light, there was actually a black spot.

Invisible black mist sometimes flows around the golden light.

Black and gold are intertwined, weird and sacred coexist.

"What kind of luck is this?"

Chen Ye couldn't help but fell into silence. Of course he knew that the identity of the old man Erhu was very mysterious, but he didn't expect that the other party's luck would also be abnormal!

Moreover, the golden ring of luck has only appeared on the body of the old man Erhu so far.

Symbolizes destiny!

But in that golden light, there was a little bit of blackness, which seemed to add a sense of eerieness to this holiness.

It seems abrupt and contradictory.

Several possibilities flashed through Chen Ye's mind, but no matter how he guessed, he had no clue about the aura of luck of the old man Erhu.

A halo of luck like this is so rare!

But soon, the ink marks seemed to have dived into the water, leaving no trace at all, leaving only dazzling golden particles, shining brightly in the center of the halo.

"Disappeared?"

Chen Ye noticed that the black traces receded and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

perhaps……

I should be worrying blindly.

Maybe there was some unclean stuff on the way, which tainted the smell, but it was completely useless to the old man Erhu.

Chen Ye's eyes returned to the buckets on the ground.

He always felt that the old man Erhu should know something, but he didn't tell him clearly.

At this moment, the old man Erhu picked up the erhu beside him and said with a smile:

"Okay, let's play a song together."

"One day without practice is like three autumns!"

"To make a living by performing arts, you must practice diligently every day and don't let it go to waste!"

Listening to this familiar voice, Chen Ye relaxed and sat cross-legged next to the old man Erhu.

The sounds of suona and erhu played at the same time.

The melodious music once again echoed in the alleys of Xining.

At the beginning, Chen Ye was troubled by various things today and had difficulty concentrating.

There are flaws and errors in many places.

When practicing, I feel as if my breath is blocked, and no matter how hard I try, I can't blow smoothly enough.

"Be careful." The old man Erhu reminded him patiently and gently.

Chen Ye nodded, took a deep breath, and cleared his mind of irrelevant thoughts.

Put your whole heart into the performance of Erhu...

He closed his eyes and emptied his mind, leaving only the melodious music echoing in his ears, and his mind seemed to enter the world of music.

This time...

Chen Ye felt that the state of calmness finally returned. At the same time, his control over the suona immediately became completely different.

Even at the climax, I can keep up with the old man's Erhu performance.

Of course, there are still flaws in the ensemble's music, and it still sounds slightly dissonant, but it's a huge improvement compared to last time!

[Strange value +300! 】

[Strange value +300! 】

【……】

After practicing for a whole night, Chen Ye was completely immersed in it and forgot about the passage of time.

Unknowingly, the weird value finally exceeded the 10,000 mark!

suddenly……

Chen Ye suddenly felt something in his heart and realized that something was quietly changing in his body.

My perception of the world seems to have become clearer than before.

He closed his eyes and could suddenly capture every subtle emotional change in the music melody.

In the past, Chen Ye could only rely on the general direction of the melody to hear the emotion of the piece.

Just like ordinary listeners, they just listen with two ears. If something sounds good, it sounds good, and if it sounds bad, it sounds bad.

but now……

He could clearly hear every detail in the music, how much force and technique was used, and what kind of mood the performer had, giving new life to the music.

Immerse yourself and listen carefully...

Finally, Chen Ye found an ensemble between himself and the old man Erhu. What was the problem?

Although the melody of the Erhu is cheerful and melodious, it seems to take the listener to a vast grassland with no clouds in the sky, horses galloping freely, far away from the world and without worries.

But in this cheerful melody, there is a sad past hidden.

That past event seems to be telling a story about a hometown that cannot be returned to, where there are people you can't see and thoughts that are hard to let go, but there is still a persistent hope that turns into a blazing flame and keeps burning that heart!

He wanted to forget this incident and create a free space in the music world, but that past event has not been erased, but has been deeply imprinted on it.

That heart kept beating in the burning hope, but it quickly fell into the abyss of eternal destruction...

At this moment, Chen Ye's music suddenly stopped and he could no longer keep playing.

Because he couldn't understand what the old man Erhu wanted to express...

At this time, the old man Erhu gradually stopped playing.

He leaned against the low tile wall, lazily picked up the water ladle, poured the water into his mouth, and looked at the night sky with a slightly confused expression.

After a while, there was a hint of relief in Chen Ye's eyes:

"You made good progress today."

Chen Ye didn't show that he was very happy. He hesitated and was about to speak...

The old man Erhu suddenly laughed at himself and interrupted: "People, in this world, have to learn to separate. As you get older and live longer, who doesn't have a few sad past events?"

When Chen Ye finished speaking, he stopped talking about what he wanted to ask and just nodded silently.

"Okay." The old man Erhu stretched his body and stretched his muscles. "It's getting late. We won't play at this time. Go to bed when it's time."

As soon as he finished speaking, this guy rolled up the small bed next to him and wrapped him into a "silkworm chrysalis" alive.

Thunderous snoring came from the "chrysalis".

"Go to sleep!"

Chen Ye whispered with a hint of disgust.

He looked up at the sky and suddenly began to miss his hometown that he could never go back to.

The music just now, the strong nostalgia, stirred the longing in my heart...

But where does the old man Erhu’s sad past come from?

He should be an aborigine of this city, with extraordinary strength and mysterious identity. Wherever he wants to go, where can't he go?

Why did you choose to become a "wandering existence"?

All kinds of questions lingered in Chen Ye's mind.

In fact...

He wanted to sleep a little bit, but how could he sleep at this stage?

The progress of this month's tasks is not too advanced, and the ranking has just reached the tenth position.

There are still many things to solve.

The pollution in the lower reaches of the Xijiang River and the ensuing food problems, as well as the black flash in the golden light of the old man Erhu...

All kinds of uneasy factors seemed to turn into whispers in his ears, constantly urging Chen Ye to become stronger quickly!

Only with strong strength can we have the confidence to deal with these problems that may come one after another.

He took out a roasted chestnut from the oil paper bag, swallowed it, and regained his energy.

Immediately afterwards...

Keeping the wandering posture, walking six meters in one step, left the shelter and started the night performance!
