Chapter 148 Finger Injury
Liu Man played two instruments at the same time.
So this is what they call a two-person trio!
Awesome! It sounds great!
This is the common voice of the audience at this moment.
It is not uncommon for art students in music conservatories to be able to play two musical instruments, but over the years, there has been only one student, Liu Man, who not only can play both Chinese classical instruments but is also proficient in both.
"The Hanfu goddess can actually play the guzheng, and she seems pretty good at it."
After all, the announcement said "Gu Zheng", so many audiences who were far away thought she was playing the Gu Zheng.
"No, no, the instrument she used just now was the guqin, not the guzheng. The guzheng's tone is not that low."
Among the audience were students from the Chinese folk music department, who kept providing general knowledge to other audience members who did not know much about the subject.
...
...
"Yes, I just looked carefully, her zither is much smaller than the guzheng."
"Besides, the difficulty of playing the guqin is much higher than that of the guzheng. Although I don't want to admit it, Liu Man is really good at it."
Several professors on the jury were also deeply impressed by the performances of Liu Lan and Li Xiaoru. They had been teaching for decades, and it was the first time for them to see such wonderful student performances.
They regretted their previous behavior of looking down on Liu Lan without knowing the cause and effect.
"Professor Wei, this Liu Man is definitely a good talent for folk music," a professor of folk music said to Wei Wanru, "It's strange, how come she studied piano."
Wei Wanru frowned, "You can't grow nails when playing the piano. In order to play the piano and the guqin at the same time, she didn't wear artificial nails. I think her right hand must be injured. This child is too patient."
Experience always brings wisdom. Wei Wanru guessed correctly that the five fingers on Liu Lan's right hand were rubbed bloody by the strings when she was playing the ** part with Li Xiaoru.
When playing the guqin, the right hand needs to use its fingernails to pluck the strings. The strings are not sharp, but if there are no fingernails to protect them, the fingers will definitely be injured if they touch the strings with the fingertips for a long time.
Liu Lan clasped her injured finger in her palm and returned to the backstage with Li Xiaoru as if nothing had happened.
Although Li Xiaoru looked like a little universe exploding on the stage just now, playing the piano calmly with the high level of a performer, she was actually covered in cold sweat and her heart was numb with nervousness, and she was only supported by her unyielding spirit and persistence.
At this moment, none of the other performers waiting in the wings dared to look down on Liu Lan and Li Xiaoru anymore. They felt that the two girls suddenly had the aura of kings, which made them involuntarily make way for them and bow their heads.
Whether they lowered their heads out of shame for the vicious words they had said before, or out of true admiration for the supreme musical standards of Liu Lan and Li Xiaoru, probably only they themselves knew.
Even though everyone wanted to strike up a conversation with Liu Lan and Li Xiaoru and get to know them better, they were too embarrassed to speak up and could only stare at the two girls from afar, hesitant to speak.
Yu Zhan had just been standing outside the backstage exit, watching Liu Man's performance directly from below the stage. He had already noticed that something was wrong with her.
He quickly caught up with Liu Lan from behind and grabbed her right hand. Liu Lan was defenseless and he opened her palm.
A hand of blood...
"Oh my God," a girl who was afraid of blood exclaimed.
Li Xiaoru was also surprised. She was so close to Manman that she didn't even notice that her finger was injured.
"It's just a crappy performance. So what if it fails? Will the sky fall? Why do you have to work so hard and hurt yourself?"
Yu Zhan's tone was heavy and his expression was serious.
Liu Lan was stunned. This was the first time he was angry with her.
But she also saw the pain and pity in his eyes.
Others were watching the performance, but Yu Zhan was watching her, so he could notice her subtle changes, such as her unintentional frown due to the pain in her fingers, and her frequent blinking in order to make herself persevere and endure the pain.
Liu Lan seemed to have figured something out in an instant and suddenly smiled. Different from the fairy-like smile on the stage just now, her smile now had a bit more warmth and popularity.
"I'm sorry, I will take better care of myself next time."
Her eyes were sparkling, and there was something in them that only Yu Zhan could understand.
Yu Zhan understood what she meant, and suddenly wrapped her right hand tightly with his left hand.
"I have a first aid kit in my car. I'll stop the bleeding and disinfect it first."
He led her out, and Liu Lan followed him closely, cooperating very obediently.
This scene happened in front of all the performers and staff backstage. Everyone watched them leave in ignorance, and only later did they realize that something seemed to be wrong.
"Didn't the internet say that Liu Man seduced Tang Tu? How do you explain that handsome guy just now?"
