Regina fiddled with the harp a few times with her fingers and said: "In this operation, I haven't been able to do anything meaningful for you. The only thing I can do is to describe the story here in a poetic way, so that more people can enjoy it.
Many people know it and have sung it. I have basically planned it. If a few of you agree, you might as well listen to it."
"Okay, we've been waiting for Miss Regina to show off her singing voice for more than a day or two." Gavin was overjoyed. This was simply a piece of pie-in-the-sky good news.
Although Regina has not really performed during this journey, her plain singing is very melodious and seductive.
If it comes through her mouth and spreads, it will become a natural advertisement, expanding your reputation and helping you attract employees to come to you.
"Please." Naturally, Darnell would not refuse the opportunity to listen to an extraordinary bard show off his talents.
In Faerûn, music and poetry are magical.
Especially when used by bards, it can stimulate people's potential and combat effectiveness.
Regina's musical instrument is a harp, a magic harp.
Has three forms.
One is the size of a fist and is used as a waist ornament by Regina.
One is the harp guitar, which can be used as a violin. Just like a guitar, it can be played directly in the arms. It is the most commonly used one by Regina. Even on horseback, it does not affect her use.
The last one is the complete state, a standard golden harp standing on the ground, taller than Regina, and playing while standing, is just right.
In Faerun, the harp is known as the king of musical instruments.
It has this title not only because its structure is complex and difficult to learn, but it has a wide range of tones, and one piano can play several musical instruments.
And because of an organization - the Harpers.
This kind organization has an excellent reputation in Faerûn, especially in the North. They have many famous members - the legendary Archmage Elminster, Blackstaff Kalben Orosun, Storm Silverhand, etc.
They have done countless good deeds, and the number of people who have received their help is countless.
It is precisely because of the existence of this kind organization that those evil forces cannot be unscrupulous in Faerûn.
The members of this organization are rich in minstrels, and many of them admire and like to use the harp as a musical instrument. Since many people love the harp as much as they love it, they naturally put the harp in a high position.
Therefore, using the harp is a troublesome thing in Faerûn, especially for bards.
Many people can't help but associate it with the harpist.
As great as the reputation of the Harpers is, they have as many enemies as they are difficult to deal with.
Over time, real harpists rarely use the harp as a musical instrument in front of others, and some fakes, in order to highlight themselves, will use the harp as a musical instrument.
The person in front of me is a genuine harpist.
Watching Regina's performance is not only an auditory enjoyment, but also a visual enjoyment.
She did not just stand there playing the harp, but danced around the harp.
When the harp is plucked and poetry is sung.
Everyone's emotions couldn't help but be aroused.
Even the person involved couldn't help but be immersed in the poetry and stories she weaved.
There, Estelle was a gentle and virtuous wife, loyal to love and her husband, and endured humiliation and heavy burdens for her daughter.
Amanda is beautiful but pitiful. She has lived in a misunderstood environment since she was a child. She has not received any love from her father. All she has is hatred and torture.
Sir Colonfell is a pitiful puppet, a puppet controlled by the evil god. He is twisted by jealousy and hatred, and takes his tyranny as a husband and father to an extreme.
After all this was laid, when tragedy struck, everyone couldn't help but burst into tears and felt sincere sympathy for the mother and daughter.
And when revenge comes, it is so satisfying.
But when it was discovered that all this was planned by the evil god, and the poor mother and daughter became the new playthings of the evil god like their father, it was so heart-wrenching.
It was so gratifying when Gavin, with his endless brilliance, broke through the darkness, broke through the cycle of immortal revenge, and rescued the suffering mother and daughter.
Even Gavin and the others who were involved were mesmerized by what they heard, and their emotions fluctuated accordingly, not to mention those who were unaware, who were probably more likely to be emotionally aroused.
Among the audience, those who reacted the most strongly were naturally Estelle and Amanda, who had personally experienced the whole thing.
Under the temptation of Regina's poetry, it seemed that she was experiencing it all over again.
Not only was Amanda gritting her teeth, she also lost control of her emotions.
Astaire's emotions also began to become extremely unstable, and the negative energy in his body surged. For a time, he was unable to maintain his physical form and had a tendency to transform into a spirit body.
At this moment, a warmth came from his right hand.
When she turned around, she saw that it was the young man named Gavin Nott who was quietly nuzzling at her.
Looking in the direction he pointed, the three paladins seemed to be immersed in poetry, but their warhammers were lying across their knees, and they seemed to be observing her and Amanda from the corner of their eyes.
Obviously, these paladins will not simply believe Gavin and Estelle's words. They need to verify for themselves that they are indeed no longer evil spirits.
Once they lose control, the situation will be completely out of control.
This made Astaire pour cold water on his head, and he immediately calmed down his emotions and suppressed the surging negative energy.
At the same time, she reached out to hold Amanda, and then she realized that Amanda had returned to normal first.
Because there was a big hand that held Amanda first.
Amanda lowered her head, staring unblinkingly, holding her big hand, feeling the warmth coming from there.
What a warm hand, what a broad hand, what a rough hand.
This was a scene she had dreamed about countless times in the middle of the night and never dared to expect.
Because she was abandoned by the gods, she was born with a curse, and she brought countless censure and humiliation to her mother.
In her life, there is only her mother, only her mother.
But now there is one more hand and one more person.
But can this hand really hold me like this and be so warm all the time?
Will he be like that man, who would raise his whip or belt because of his own little mistake?
This thought made Amanda feel infinitely frightened. She couldn't help but hold this big hand tightly, fearing that if she let go, she wouldn't have a second chance to hold it.
One big and one small, the temperature of the two hands is obviously different from that of ordinary people.
Although it is not as cold as a corpse, the body temperature is at least several degrees lower than that of ordinary people, and the temperature difference can be clearly felt.
The heartbeat is also obviously slower and slower than that of ordinary people. If you don't feel it carefully, you may not even feel it.
It is estimated that this is the impact of negative energy.
The soothing effect was even better than Gavin imagined.
First, Estelle calmed down, and then Amanda. Her reaction was a bit beyond Gavin's imagination. Not only did the little hand that was held hold his back, but the other little hand also came up, and even the touching poems also
He stopped admiring it and just stared at Gavin's hand.
It almost made Gavin wonder if flowers were growing on his hands.
When Regina finished her performance and Gavin was about to applaud, Amanda held on tightly and refused to let go.
In desperation, he could only make do with a few pats and said loudly: "I have known for a long time that Miss Regina is a master in this aspect. I didn't expect that she is so masterful. I am afraid that she is the only one in the entire valley."
I can’t find a few who stand shoulder to shoulder with you.”
"The sound is amazing, the dance is amazing, and the song is even more amazing." Darnell gave a thumbs up and said sincerely, "It is not something that ordinary people can do to create a new song and dance in such a short time.
.”
"Thank you." Regina bowed humbly and said, "Due to the rush of time, this poem still has a lot of room for improvement. You are all participants and have more say. If you feel it is inappropriate,
You can point it out and I will make further adjustments and improvements.”
Gavin nodded solemnly and said: "Miss Regina, this poem is good in every aspect, except for one thing I don't agree with. Why does Mr. Darnell and the others not appear in it from beginning to end? The situation here, you
It is most clear that if Mr. Darnell and the others had not eliminated the ghosts in the manor in advance, and if he had not selflessly shared the information that I finally found, it is hard to say whether I would have succeeded."
Darnell didn't react much to Gavin's words. His two apprentices looked at him with obviously softer eyes.
They were aware of this problem just now, but they are the parties involved after all and cannot ask this question.
"This..." Regina's beautiful face showed a hint of embarrassment. She couldn't say that she did this intentionally.
Because doing this certainly demonstrated Darnell's selflessness, but it also had a certain impact on his reputation. After all, it showed that he failed in the matter of Vizeme Manor.
Darnell waved his hand generously and said: "Brother Gavin, all poems need a protagonist, and only one protagonist. Some unnecessary characters can be added without adding them. In this matter,
The role I play is not as big as you think. Even if we don't take the first step, Mr. Gavin can still solve it with his ability. It's just a little more troublesome. Poetry doesn't need to be more elaborate. I think this is the case.
very good."
"But..." Gavin wanted to say something else.
He was interrupted by Darnell waving his hand and said half-jokingly: "Brother Gavin, you have to let me speak so frankly. I have a certain reputation in the valley, especially in dealing with ghosts. You have to let Regina
Miss, if you incorporate me into your poems and use me as a foil for you, wouldn’t it make my worth plummet..."
Gavin was stunned. He only thought about fairness and justice. He really didn't think about it in this aspect. He hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, that's not what I meant..."
Darnell laughed and said: "Of course I know you didn't mean it. It was just a joke. The opportunity will be left to you young people. You need this more than me, especially the Vizeme Manor. If you want to rebuild it, you need a reputation."
, don’t refuse.
I just hope that when we come to Vizeme Manor again in the future, we can have a free glass of wine, and we will be satisfied. The crystal wine produced by Vizeme Manor is currently the only one in the valley. No one can surpass it, but I have already
I haven’t been able to drink it for more than two years.”
Gavin borrowed the donkey to stop worrying about this matter. The parties concerned didn't care, and he didn't care about monopolizing the reputation. He patted his chest and promised: "After the wine is brewed next year, I will send a car to the husband as soon as possible.
When the time comes, sir, please don’t refuse.”
"How could I refuse such a good thing? We are committed." Darnell readily agreed.
"It's a deal."
"If you want to drink Vizeme's crystal wine, you don't need to wait until next year." Estelle gently interjected, "There is a lot of stock in the manor's cellar, and they are all of the best years and the best quality.
of."
"The manor has a wine cellar? Why didn't I find it?" Gavin asked doubtfully.
He had previously flipped the main building of the Vizeme Manor from the inside to the bottom, wanting to dig at the cracks in the wall, but he didn't find any mechanism or anything like that.
Darnell also showed the same expression. Although he did not look through it so carefully, he indeed found no traces of the wine cellar.
