Chapter 182: Hunting and Killing the Purple Bird (4)
The servants hurriedly said, "It's so dark and I don't light a lamp, for fear of being a monster."
Old Man Man smiled and said, "If there is a demon on the piano, it is also a Yayao. I would like to go and meet it for a while."
Mrs. Man walked over gently, and Wang Cuiping stopped playing the piano. Mrs. Man asked outside the door, "Who is playing the piano?"
Wang Cuiping was a little scared in the room, and through the crack in the door she saw several men under the lantern.
When Old Man Man saw no one responded, several servants got scared, "I'm afraid it's really a ghost."
Old Man Man said, "Bring me the piano." The servant handed him the piano. Old Man Man pressed the strings, and after a set of slides, Wang Cuiping's piano followed suit. She was so frightened that she hurriedly pressed down the strings.
Old Man Man said, "She is a human being. Don't scare her. She is still a girl." Then he knocked on the door and said, "Open the door. We are not bad people."
Wang Cuiping still didn't dare to open the door, and Mrs. Man said again, "You girl, your piano sound is so spiritual. I haven't heard such spiritual music in a long time. Let me see who you are?"
The servants also said, "This is the famous Man Ba Yin. Mr. Man, maybe I can teach you a thing or two, why don't you open the door?"
Wang Cuiping was so happy when she heard that it was the old man Man who was known as the Eight-tone Man in the world. Of the ten fingers in life, except for the two little fingers which cannot play the piano and must be bent into orchid fingers to avoid touching the strings and dulling the sound, the other eight fingers must be
When used, Man Ba Yin can produce eight kinds of harmonies with eight fingers at the same time, so it is named after it.
Wang Cuiping didn't care whether it was true or not, so she opened the door and knelt beside the door.
Man Bayin took the wind lantern to shine, but she was a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. Man Bayin asked, "What is your name? Why are you playing the piano in the dark? Can you see?"
Wang Cuiping did not want to give her name, but only said, "The piano is played with the heart, not with the eyes. It doesn't matter whether it is night or day, as long as you have the heart, you can play good music."
Man Bayin was overjoyed after hearing this, "That's right, but it's a pity it's a girl."
Wang Cuiping said, "The Nu family has not received any guidance from a famous teacher. It just makes rough sounds that are unpleasant to the ears. So we still ask Senior Ba Yin for guidance."
Man Bayin said, "I don't dare to give you advice, but since I am several dozen years older than you, I have a lot of experience, so I can give you some advice. I just put this experience in the piano, and if you can hear it, it is you."
If you can't understand my fate, you won't be able to learn it even if I teach you step by step."
As he spoke the full eight notes, he knelt down to play the piano, and the song "Wind Passing the Pines" began to play.
After just listening to a prelude, the wind started to sound everywhere, and hundreds of sounds were heard in the forest. Among the hundreds of sounds, there were hundreds of thoughts, which made people have a variety of mixed feelings. The performance was so mesmerizing that she was drunk. From the main room of her uncle's house, there was
My aunt scolded her like a pig-killer. She was distracted by the eight-note sound, and suddenly the string broke. Everyone booed and gasped.
Wang Cuiping said, "The second string was broken at the wrong time. Without this string, the music cannot be played anymore."
Man Ba Yin was shocked, "How did you know it was the second string?" At that time, the two of them were ten feet away, and it was pitch black. When the servant raised the lamp to look, he saw that the second string was broken.
Man Bayin said, "Your hearing is extraordinary. It's a pity that you are born a girl. Do you understand what I just taught you?"
Wang Cuiping said, "I play the qin in the dark every day, and I have the qin in my heart and ears without even looking at it. Just now, Senior Ba Yin's wind into the pine forest was to teach me to play with my heart. If the sound does not enter the human heart, it is just an ordinary sound.
, it’s the same whether it’s there or not. Even if it’s a thunderous thunder, if you don’t pay attention, you can’t hear it. If you pay attention, you can still hear it even if a silver needle falls to the ground or drops of water fall on a stone.”
