"Is it that violin case?" Yin Yunquan asked. In fact, he found that Fu Chongji was carrying a violin case when he entered the room.
"That's impossible! How did you do that?" Qian Mingxin still had some doubts.
Lu Yuguo asked Fu Zhongji to help him get the pipa. He smiled and said, "I'll play it for you. You won't believe me even if I tell you."
Yi Qiushui watched Lu Yuguo take out a pair of strange nails from his bag. He asked in surprise, "What is this?"
"You'll know in a moment." Lu Yuguo said as he put on his artificial nails.
Chen Yian watched as Fu Chongji actually took out a pipa from the case. He was a little surprised. It looked pretty good.
Jie Xiang asked, "Xiao Guo, did you really make it? No, haven't you been working on restoring music? How could you have the time to make a pipa?"
"I've been working on it these days, making pipa during the day and restoring music at night."
Lu Yuguo took the pipa and held it in his arms as he spoke.
He tested the sound with a light strum, then looked at Chen Yian and asked, "Teacher, how's the sound quality, right?"
Chen Yian nodded and said excitedly, "That sounds really good!"
"I'll play the piece Liugong for you. I've practiced this piece the most recently, and it's the one I'm most familiar with," said Lu Yuguo.
The others nodded, and Yi Qiushui said, "Come on, I like Liu Gong the most."
Lu Yuguo sat up straight and was about to play the piano when Fu Chongji stopped him and said, "Wait."
He said as he took out his selfie ball, "I want to record it."
After listening to this, those who had selfie balls took them out to record, and those who didn't also used terminals to record, and then looked at Lu Yuguo expectantly.
Lu Yuguo smiled, picked up the pipa and started playing.
The clear sound of the piano flowed smoothly from the nimble fingers, and the tune of the Six Palaces was a little sad, as if three thousand beauties were telling their sorrow to the emperor, and the nerves of everyone present were aroused.
Chen Yian listened with a little excitement, feeling his scalp a little tingling.
Jie Xiang stared closely at Lu Yuguo's hand movements.
Yi Qiuli touched his arm unconsciously and felt goose bumps all over his body.
The sound of the pipa gradually turned to a feeling of competition, as if the beauties in the harem were deceiving each other and scheming against each other, just to gain the emperor's favor.
Then the end of the struggle seemed to usher in victory, with a burst of encouragement and euphoria, but it soon turned to sorrow and sadness, and gradually came to an end, as if saying that sorrow and sadness was the ending of the Six Palaces.
After playing the song, Lu Yuguo stopped and looked at everyone. Jie Xiang couldn't help but stand up and said, "Xiaoguo, awesome, awesome, awesome."
"Oh my god, it's so beautiful. The sound of the pipa can give people goose bumps all over their body." Yi Qiu Shui said.
The others clapped their hands vigorously, and Yin Yunquan said, "It sounds really good."
Qian Mingxin said: "It's so exciting to hear the pipa music live."
"Yes, it's very charming. I didn't expect that I would have the chance to listen to pipa playing again," said Zhao Jingbin.
Chen Yian said excitedly: "Xiaoguo, come on, bring the pipa here for me to see."
Lu Yuguo handed the pipa to him and said, "You really believe it this time, don't you?"
"I believe it, I believe it." Chen Yian took the pipa and looked at it carefully while saying, "Xiaoguo, how did you do it?"
"Well, it's a matter of luck," Lu Yuguo said.
"How is that possible?"
Chen Yian tried to play it as he spoke, but he needed to use some force when playing with his fingers, and the effect was not as good as Lu Yuguo's.
The others gathered around Chen Yian and watched. Lu Yuguo took off his artificial nails and handed them to Chen Yian, saying, "Teacher, you need to use this. It will be more effective if you use this."
Chen Yian took the artificial nails and took a closer look. They looked like they were made of plastic. Lu Yuguo was afraid that he wouldn't know how to wear them, so he went over to teach him.
After putting on the artificial nails, Chen Yian began to try out the sound of the pipa. He tried every scale and felt that the sound quality was really good.
Then he tried to play a nursery rhyme that was more familiar to the people of the Empire. Although his pipa playing technique was not very proficient, he still played the whole song completely.
"Not bad, Xiaoguo, how did you do that?" Chen Yian looked at the pipa with some excitement.
He turned the pipa over and over to look at it carefully, and tried tapping the back with his fingers to listen to the sound, then tried it on the panel, and finally looked at the strings carefully.
Lu Yuguo thought about it and started making up a half-truth.
He said, "I think it might be good luck. I don't know if it was because of that, but when I saw my teacher's pipa at the excavation site that day, I wanted to make one myself. I told you about this."
Chen Yian nodded after hearing this.
Lu Yuguo continued, "I searched for materials online after I got home, but as you know, I don't have much money. When I was looking for materials, I wanted to find the same red sandalwood, but better red sandalwood is more expensive.
So I found some small furniture manufacturers and asked them if they had any scraps of similar size. The manufacturers said that they did have those scraps, but some of them had been stored for a long time.
I thought it shouldn't be a big problem, and I didn't expect it to work right away, so I bought it and tried it out. I didn't expect it to turn out so well."
Chen Yian frowned after hearing this. "Materials that have been stored for a long time? Did the merchant specify how long?"
"Well, they said it's been at least five or six years."
Lu Yuguo thought about it and smiled, "And when I bought it, I thought that since the backboard was made of old materials, I also chose to buy some old bamboo when buying materials for making composite products.
I think these old bamboos are also useful, and they resonate well with the back panel."
Mo Yuanshen glanced at Lu Yuguo after hearing this. He didn't believe what Lu Yuguo said.
But Chen Yian believed it at least 70%.
After all, he couldn't think of any reason why Lu Yuguo would lie to them, so he said thoughtfully, "It seems I have to try to find some materials that have been stored for a long time."
Lu Yuguo thought about it and glanced at a few people and said, "By the way, when I was making the pipa, I also recorded a video.
However, the recording process took me about ten days, and the video was too long. When I got back, I made the video into a sped-up video and posted it on social media.
If you need anything, you can go and have a look."
"Okay. By the way, how much did it cost you to make the pipa?" Chen Yian asked.
Lu Yuguo said, "About 20,000."
"Well, if we can produce it later, I will apply for some rewards from the school for you." Chen Yian said.
"Thank you, teacher." Lu Yuguo said with a smile.
"Teacher, let me try the pipa." Jie Xiang was watching curiously. He also wanted to try the sound quality.
The others also had the same idea. Chen Yian smiled and gave the pipa to them to try.
After trying it, Jie Xiang and Yi Qiu Shui both clamored to make one for themselves.
Others are not very interested and may try it when they have free time.
