Chapter 2782 Playing the Piano
Hua Tiandao was born into a wealthy family. His clan was one of the eighteen royal clans. He was born with a golden key in his mouth. ?шщЩ.suimEnG.1a In addition, he was gifted and had always been superior to his peers. Therefore, he was highly valued by the clan and developed a proud and arrogant character.
He rarely suffered from anger since he was a child. Unless he did something too much and was scolded by his elders, no one dared to scold him, let alone laugh at him or slap him in the face.
He was extremely angry, mainly because there were so many beauties in the field, which made it impossible for him to step down. He burst into anger, his body was trembling, and the murderous intent in his body soared infinitely.
Lu Li took a sip of the wine glass leisurely, not caring at all. This is the Female Saint Sect. Hua Tiandao has the courage to take action, but his elders do not have the courage, otherwise it would be a slap in the face of the Female Saint Sect. As long as Hua Tiandao's elders do not take action, Hua Tiandao is not afraid of any play if he is alone.
"Shh~"
The sound of footsteps outside broke the awkward atmosphere inside. Seeing this, Liu Ye quickly pulled Hua Tiandao aside and sat him down, advising: "Young Master Hua, don't get angry. Many emperors are coming. Don't make a big fuss."
"Hmph!"
Hua Tiandao also calmed down. If he was outside the Female Saint Sect, he would definitely not be able to bear it and would try his best to kill Lu Li. If he really wanted to make trouble in the Female Saint Sect, he would still suffer.
A group of strong men came in from outside, all of them were quasi-emperors and emperors. The queen walked in with more than a dozen people. All of them had a strong breath like the sea. Although they restrained their breath, they still made everyone feel depressed.
"More than a dozen emperors!"
Lu Li's eyes lit up. It was an honor to be able to attend the banquet with so many emperors. Many young masters were also very excited. Liu Ye was enough for him to brag for many years.
This time, not only more than a dozen emperors came, but also more than 20 elders from various families. The huge hall was full of people, with hundreds of maids walking around, making it extremely lively.
The queen and several emperors sat in the first seat, and people kept toasting them. Because there were emperors and quasi-emperors present, Lu Li and others kept a low profile and didn't speak, just listening to the powerful people talking.
Halfway through the banquet, the queen waved her hand, and the thirty-five beauties began to take turns to perform their talents, which made countless young men feel itchy. Only Hua Tiandao had a gloomy face, and glanced at Lu Li from time to time with hatred.
After the women showed their talents, the queen suggested that ten young men come up to show their talents, making the atmosphere more lively.
Most of the top ten were young men from famous families.
They were trained in various etiquette by their families since childhood, and they were proficient in almost everything, such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting. For these young men, performing some talents is a simple thing, and it is also an opportunity for them to show themselves, attract the attention of beauties, and win their favor.
Wen Xiang was the first to go on stage. He performed a sword dance in a graceful and elegant manner, which was extremely beautiful and attracted applause. Dong Yeying went on stage next. He showed off a relief carving skill and quickly carved two beauties with jade on the spot. The jade carvings were lifelike. The two people were Lu Ling and Xiang Linglong. He also gave the jade carvings to the two people, which attracted applause.
Later, Tu Ying, Liu Yun, Liu Ye and others came on stage one after another. Hua Tiandao also came on stage and showed off a boxing method that was specially used for performance. It was extremely powerful and beautiful, showing the masculine beauty of men.
All of them went on stage, except Lu Li. Lu Li didn't want to play this kind of show-off performance. He grew up in the mountains and had no chance to learn this kind of high-pressure skills. Naturally, he would not learn it later, so he had nothing to show. Could it be that he went up and twisted his butt?
Everyone went on stage, leaving only Lu Li. A group of people looked at him. Lu Li smiled awkwardly and said, "So many famous young masters have performed. I am not very knowledgeable, so I won't go up and show my ugliness."
"How can this be?"
"No, no, everyone is on stage, Master Feng, you must go up!"
"Yes, yes, yes, Master Feng must come up and show a piece!"
Many beauties refused. Some people were still waiting for Lu Li to go on stage. Now that Lu Li is at his peak, how could they let him go?
The queen looked at Lu Li with a slightly kind look and said, "Feng Wuding, your ancestor was omnipotent back then. Didn't you learn a little from him? Don't be shy, come up and perform a piece."
The queen spoke, what else could Lu Li do? He pondered for a moment, got up and walked to the center of the stage and sat cross-legged on the ground, then smiled and said, "Can you lend me a zither? I'll play a piece to entertain you."
"Wow~"
A low voice suddenly rang out in the stage. Lu Li wanted to play the zither? He doesn't even have a special zither? You know, every zither is different, and you can't play your best with an unfamiliar zither.
What does this mean? Does it mean that Lu Li is not very proficient in zither skills?
Most of the people present were children of wealthy families, and everyone was considered proficient in zither skills. Lu Li, a layman, was playing the zither here. Isn't this just showing off his skills in front of an expert, making a fool of himself?
The actress waved her hand, and a woman immediately stood up and took out a zither. She walked in front of Lu Li, held it in her hands and said, "Mr. Feng, this zither is called Zhiya. I am waiting for your divine song."
Lu Li nodded slightly, took the zither, put it aside, and fiddled with it a little clumsily, as if judging the sound of the zither. This made the group of people speechless. Lu Li didn't say that he was proficient in zither skills, and he could even be said to be half-understanding. He didn't even tune the piano, and his posture didn't look like someone who had learned to play the zither at all.
Lu Li fiddled with it for a while, and finally got the tone right. He smiled awkwardly, then closed his eyes and pondered. He didn't know many songs, just a few simple ones. He finally chose a relatively simple one, so don't play it wrong.
Lu Ling and Xiang Linglong looked at Lu Li angrily and amusedly, their clumsy tactics left them speechless. However, they all know Lu Li very well and will not do anything that is uncertain, so they are both looking forward to seeing what amazing performance Lu Li will perform?
"Boom~"
A low piano sound sounded, like a clear sound in the mountains, and Lu Li started playing. Judging from the first few sounds, it was obvious that Lu Li was not very good at piano skills, and even had a poor sense of basic rhythm. .
This sounds like noise to the ears of a group of people who are proficient in piano skills, but the people present are very well-educated and will not show any special expressions.
“Dong dong~
After playing for a while, Lu Li seemed to have found the right rhythm, and his playing began to get better. The music he played was low and distant, making people feel like a picture was unconsciously emerging in their mind.
It was as if they saw a deep mountain, a mountain they played with when they were children, familiar rivers, the low voices of cattle and sheep, and scenes that many people had forgotten all appeared in everyone's mind.
Slowly, there was no sound in the venue. There were still people drinking wine and eating spiritual fruits, but they all stopped at this moment. Some people closed their eyes and listened quietly to the low, resentful music with a touch of sadness.
"Tick tock, tick tock~"
After a while again, a tear slipped down, and a woman actually started to cry. More people's faces showed a look of longing, a look of sadness, a look of sadness.
Lu Li's piano music unexpectedly brought everyone in, reminding them of their childhood, the place where they were born, their hometown, and their deceased parents or relatives...
The most unforgettable thing is my hometown, and the most sad thing is homesickness.
Most of the thirty-five female disciples of the Female Saint Sect joined the Female Saint Sect when they were children and have been living and cultivating in the Female Saint Sect. After many years, they have forgotten what their hometown looks like and where they were born.
The music awakened things deep in their memories, reminding them of places they would only recall when dreaming back at midnight.
