Chapter 415: To repay you, I will teach you a new song
Yue He stood up silently, not daring to say anything, but Du Wan Wan smiled at her softly: “You don’t have to be afraid, it’s not your fault, it’s Mother Qian’s fault.
But I am a great man and I don't bear grudges. It's normal for a brothel owner to bluff. I'm just curious, why are you not the best in the building now? "
Ye Tingxiao glanced at Mother Qian casually, said nothing, just glanced at her indifferently.
But this scared Qian's mother, who was about to speak, so much that she shut up immediately.
The look in this guest's eyes was so terrifying that he looked at her as if she were a dead person. This pressure was even more terrifying than that of ordinary princes and nobles.
Were they really from other places? But she knew almost all the nobles in the capital, including the male prostitutes, and she had never seen them before.
Yue He slightly bent her knees, bowed, and smiled bitterly: "I only know a few songs. If the guests get tired of listening to them, they will naturally stop praising me."
In front of Qian Mama, she naturally didn't dare to tell the truth. If she dared to say that Qian Mama forced her to sell her body, and she was forced to teach Bai Ling and be replaced by someone else because she didn't agree, Qian Mama would definitely not let her go.
You can only blame yourself, but you cannot point out the madam's evil intentions.
"What if you appear with new music? Can you still return to the peak?" Du Wanwan asked casually.
Yue He shook her head: "I am stupid and cannot create new music."
It is impossible for the madam to spend a large sum of money to hire someone to write new songs for her. What she wants is to make a fortune every day without spending a penny.
"What are you best at?" Du Wanwan asked again.
Yue He held the pipa and replied calmly, "It's "Song of the Frontier", "The Snow of the Spring", "Ambush from All Sides", and "The Waves Wash Away the Sand". What do you want to listen to, sir?"
Du Wanwan replied: "House of Flying Daggers."
She liked listening to this song very much and had listened to it often in her previous life. The song could bring the listener into a tense, fierce and cruel ancient battlefield.
In the sound of the pipa, people seem to see the battle flags waving, the flashing of swords, and the warriors fighting in fierce battles, making earth-shaking shouts of killing.
At the beginning of the piece, the sound of the pipa carries a sense of urgency, like the murderous intent lurking in a densely packed military camp.
This sense of urgency is conveyed to the listener through the fast playing and the close arrangement of notes, making people feel the tense atmosphere of the battlefield in their hearts.
The track also simulates various battlefield sounds, such as artillery fire, shouting, crying, horse hoof sounds, etc., to express the cruelty and heroism of war.
Behind every sound there may be a story, a heroic picture of heroic sacrifice, which makes the music full of deep emotional colors.
The different stages of the war are shown through multiple paragraphs with titles, such as "Ambush from Ten Sides" and "Enemy Songs on All Sides".
These passages narrate the course of the war in the form of music, making the listeners feel as if a thrilling historical drama is being performed before their eyes.
In the last part, the exquisite performance skills of the pipa simulate the chaos and cruelty of war, making people feel as if they are in an ancient battlefield, experiencing the horror and cruelty of war firsthand.
I've been so busy in this life that I never had the chance to listen to it. Today I must enjoy it.
Mother Qian ordered Yuehe: "Hurry up and play for the guests."
"Yes!" Yuehe sat down and began to prepare.
Ye Tingxiao waved at Mother Qian, motioning her to go out. The old woman's smell of powder made him feel uncomfortable.
His daughter Wanwan never uses these low-quality rouge and powder. She only uses things from the space, which have a faint fragrance.
Unlike the greasy, rouge and powder on the procuress's body, which had several smells mixed together, so strong that it was disgusting.
Seeing that the guest disliked her, Mother Qian did not dare to stay any longer and turned away.
Yue He moved her ten fingers slightly, and instantly a series of exciting pipa music sounded.
Yetingxiao and Du Wanwan sat and listened carefully, closing their eyes and swimming in the ocean of music.
Suddenly, a terrified scream came from the opposite bakery: "Ah! Murder!"
Yue He's hand paused and she played a wrong syllable. Du Wan Wan opened her eyes and heard the sound of swords clashing outside.
"No way! It's a rare visit to a brothel, and someone actually messed with me?"
Du Wanwan stood up while complaining, walked to the door, and leaned forward to look outside, but was grabbed by Ye Tingxiao and pulled behind him to protect her.
"Danger!"
Yuehe's hands continued to move down. The customer didn't ask her to stop, so she didn't dare to stop. However, her fingers were a little out of control and kept shaking.
"What happened? Come and have a look! Could it be that Yu Hanyan was murdered?"
"Bang!"
As he was speaking, a man rushed in from outside, injured in his left shoulder. Bright red blood kept dripping onto the floor, instantly gathering into a small pool.
When he saw Ye Tingxiao and Du Wanwan, he said nothing, rolled his eyes, and fainted.
Yue He covered her mouth tightly, hugged her Pipa, and was so frightened that she was out of her mind. She had been in Wangjun Tower for three years, and this was the first time she saw someone being assassinated and unconscious in front of her.
Ye Tingxiao squatted down and looked at the man's face. He was shocked and pressed the acupuncture points to stop the bleeding. He asked Yue He: "Is there anyone hiding in this room?"
Yuehe shook her head, then nodded and pointed inside. Her trembling voice was obviously weak, as if she was scared.
"There's a cabinet over there. I can hide here for a while."
Du Wanwan also saw the man's face, which was 70% similar to Yu Hanyan. It must be Yu Hanyan from southern Xinjiang.
He reached out to help Ye Tingxiao move the person to the back, then opened the cabinet, but instead of throwing the person in, he put the person into the space.
Ye Tingxiao also opened a window, stuck his head out to look outside, then walked out and instructed Yue He.
"Keep playing."
Yue He stood up, sat on a stool, holding the pipa in her arms. Even though her fingers were shaking with fear, she still steadied herself and began to play.
Not long after the music started, two men in black came in, wearing turbans that left only a pair of eyes exposed.
With the sword in hand, he stared at the three of them, and one of them asked, "Is anyone coming in?"
Yuehe didn't dare to speak, but continued to play the pipa with her hands, but the tone was extremely chaotic, just like her heart at the moment.
Yetingxiao nodded and pointed to the rear window.
Du Wanwan didn't say anything. She narrowed her eyes and looked at the person in front of her calmly.
The man in black looked in the direction of Ye Tingxiao's hand and quickly ran back to check, not paying any attention to why the two young masters were so calm when they saw them.
Shouldn't ordinary people be trembling with fear when seeing them, just like the girl playing the music? Why could he still calmly give them directions?
Finding the window open, the two jumped down without saying anything.
Du Wanwan turned her head and looked at him, unable to help but muttering, "Is he a fool? So easy to fool?"
Ye Tingxiao looked at Du Wanwan lovingly, said nothing, glanced at Yue He indifferently, and said indifferently: "Just pretend you didn't see what happened tonight."
Yue He replied in a voice so tense that it made her hair stand on end: "Yes, yes, yes, I'll remember it."
Coming back to her senses, Du Wanwan lowered her head and thought for a while: "To repay you, I will teach you a new song. I will hum a part and you can play it on the pipa."
