Chapter 7 Obtaining a new identity - Wandering Musician

Purple air?

Chen Ye felt a little surprised.

This is a sign of luck related to "Tengda"!

If it appears on someone's head, it means that the other person may be able to help you with "noble luck".

Moreover, Chen Ye also noticed that on the head of the old man Erhu, in addition to purple clouds, a ray of golden light loomed from the purple light. On the top floor, a faint blue covers the sky, and the outer ring is filled with steaming white mist. The sky is as clear as blue, surrounded by golden scales, and the atmosphere is myriad...

"There is actually a trace of golden luck hidden in it?"

Chen Ye was extremely surprised.

Gold is the symbol of destiny.

The aura of good fortune of the old man Erhu is so rich!

White, blue, purple, gold...

All kinds of luck haloes are intertwined, and there is even gold mixed in. Could it be that he is in charge of destiny?

The identity of the old man Erhu immediately became mysterious.

only.

For some reason, when Chen Ye saw the halo of luck, he suddenly felt like he was reunited after a long absence.

That inexplicable kindness seemed to connect this aura of luck with Chen Ye's own luck aura.

It's like coming home.

Suddenly, Chen Ye realized that his eyes had been staying on the old man Erhu for a while.

The trait of hatred in the wanderer's eyes was not triggered?

The old man Erhu didn't seem to pay attention to Chen Ye's gaze at all, and just kept playing the Erhu by himself.

Chen Ye heard the melody of this piece was "Lullaby" and suddenly felt nostalgic.

When I was a child, because it was difficult to fall asleep at night, the family crowded into a small room of less than 40 square meters, listening to their parents humming lullabies and falling asleep slowly.

The quiet melody comes melodiously, as if it brings memories back to childhood.

Until the melody gradually stops.

Only then did the old man Erhu cast his eyes on Chen Ye. With a kind face, he waved to Chen Ye to come over.

Chen Ye pondered for a moment and observed with the pupil of luck. He found that the luck halo above his head did not go to colors related to evil spirits such as "black" and "bloody", but instead had a faint purple rhyme.

Just now, I almost sold myself to the old lady selling chestnuts. The blood-black evil energy above my head was about to reach the sky!

Facing the old man Erhu, a similar halo of luck does not exist.

even……

The purple energy is starting to come out!

Combined with the characteristics of [Wanderer], the further you walk, the easier it is to encounter help from fellow wanderers.

Judging from the clothes of the old man Erhu, he is wearing a shabby shirt, which seems to have been worn for decades. After countless exposure to wind and sun, the clothes have become wrinkled, although they look much more complete than those worn by Chen Ye. But still not much better.

He must be so depressed because he is also a [Wanderer].

And according to the characteristics, being able to get help from the other party is within the rules.

Chen Ye walked over obediently, not only because of the purple luck halo, which indicated that the other party might have good luck for him.

That kind feeling also made him do this.

"Young man, you are very musically gifted."

The old man Erhu smiled.

Uh...are you saying that if I'm tone-deaf, sing out of tune, scream in high pitches, or play the piano, my next-door neighbor will come to check my water meter?

Chen Ye complained in his mind and wanted to say something modest and polite, but after thinking about it, he had already arrived in "Weird Era", so why should he be polite to Wei?

So, he pondered for a moment and said:

"well enough……"

The old man Erhu took out an instrument from his pocket with a smile and handed it to Chen Ye.

"You are very talented in music. This is a gift for you."

Chen Ye took a closer look and saw that the upper end of this double-reed wind instrument was equipped with a thin copper tube, and the hollow part was made of sandalwood. The trumpet in the bowl was yellowed and worn, and it turned out to be the same color as the iron bowl used for begging.

Suona!

Chen Ye didn't expect that the instrument the other party gave him was a rogue instrument known as the "King of Baile"!

Moreover, the structure of this suona is really hard to describe.

It's hard to guess...whether the old man put the begging bowl on the suona, or whether another suona was removed and used as a begging bowl.

Faced with the "generous gift" given by the old man Erhu when he met, Chen Ye fell into hesitation.

It was not that he suspected that the other party would harm him, but according to the rules of "Strange Era", the equivalent exchange theorem was almost everywhere.

If you do not follow this theorem, then fate will make you pay the corresponding price.

Therefore, Chen Ye did not immediately accept the gift from the old man Erhu, and was about to refuse...

At this moment, the old man Erhu smiled and said: "Old man, I am old, I don't have enough breath, and I can't play loudly. It's useless to keep this suona with me."

"You happen to lack the skills to eat, so why not stay with me, the old man, and make a living through music."

"Haha, I'm old and no longer useful. I may have to rely on your performing arts to survive in the future."

"It can be regarded as leaving a way out for me as an old man."

Chen Ye was stunned, but he didn't expect the old man Erhu to reveal his true feelings.

In this way, it does not violate the theorem of equivalent exchange.

The meaning of the old man Erhu is to give Chen Ye the skill of eating, so that when he gets old, he will have an apprentice to rely on.

Chen Ye still lacks a stable source of food for the time being, so he may be able to survive the early stage by following the old man Erhu.

After all, this city is too weird and dangerous, and I was almost sent away by the old woman selling chestnuts just now...

Chen Ye thought about it and felt that following the old man Erhu might not be an unacceptable choice.

First of all, I currently lack a stable source of food. When I came to the dungeon for the first time, I had the game rules of the closed beta in my mind. However, after the bloody countdown incident, the game came to reality and I found that the situation here was somewhat different from that of the ordinary dungeon.

For example, the old lady selling chestnuts is obviously not a very friendly trick to newbies.

If it weren't for the help of the old man Erhu, he would probably start with GG.

This kind of difficulty only appears in high-difficulty dungeons... This has to make Chen Ye rethink his current situation.

Secondly, the old erhu people are both "wandering beings", they are the same kind and have no fixed abode. Even if he makes a living from music, there is no fixed performance place where he can take advantage of his characteristics as a "wanderer", and his weirdness value can be steadily increased through wandering.

If there is no stable source of income, then it is impossible to wander around every day and 24 hours a day, right?

Based on Chen Ye's current judgment, following the old man Erhu for the time being is the best choice.

This is also a manifestation of the characteristics of [Wanderer].

finally.

Chen Ye took the suona from the old man's hand.

"Ding!"

The red phone suddenly popped up with a reminder.

[Congratulations on obtaining a "musician" trait. 】

[Wanderer] + [Musician] = [Wandering Musician]!
