Chapter 407: The Boat of Joy (4)
Translator: 549690339
Xu Bai looked in the direction that Ye Zi was pointing at and saw a boat that could accommodate up to a hundred people anchored at the center of the river.
In the middle of the ship, there was a plaque with the words ” Zhile Ship ‘ written on it.
“Who built such a big ship?”Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and asked.
“It’s the Lin family, the number one family in the Wind Chime Manor.”Ye Zi explained,” It is said that their family has connections with many high officials and nobles in the capital. The Lin family is very good at war drums. The head of the family has already become a third-grade musician and is a drum master of the musician branch.”
Xu Bai nodded.
He was only interested in these things. As for the rest, he was not interested. He was only interested in those demon masters.
“Oh, right.” Xu Bai seemed to have thought of something and asked, “Why haven’t I seen you guys use musical instruments before?”
He suddenly remembered that the Ye family was also a branch of musicians. Why had he never seen Ye Zi use an instrument? He had only seen Ye Zi use white light to make silk threads to play.
Now that Xu Bai’s Yin Music had been perfected, he naturally understood that if he had a musical instrument, its power would multiply.
“Young Master, the instruments of the Ye family are all in the second volume of the Yin Xian Song, so we don’t know what to use.”Ye Zi said.
The second volume had already been lost, so of course they couldn’t find it, so they could only use the method of the first volume.
Xu Bai nodded and did not say anything else. He focused on the river.
At this moment, there were more and more people. As time passed, the sun gradually set.
The sky gradually darkened, but it was as bright as day here.
All kinds of lanterns were hung high up. Even on both sides of the Xunle River, there were lanterns hanging side by side. The fire-like light illuminated the river surface.
For such a grand event, someone had to host it.
Not long after, Xu Bai saw a middle-aged man walk out of the largest Zhile Boat.
This person was dressed in silk and satin, and he looked rich and overbearing. He had a kind smile on his face and looked very kind.
When this person came out, the surrounding lively scene paused slightly. Everyone’s eyes followed this person’s figure and looked over.
“Everyone, regardless of whether you are a local or a foreigner, you are all welcome to participate in the annual grand event of my Wind Chime Manor.”The middle-aged man in silk laughed and said, “I, Lin Yong, am the head of the Lin family and am here to host this banquet. Now, let’s welcome our prefecture commander.”
There were two servants standing on both sides of the boat with a red cloth in their hands.
The red cloth was pulled straight, and behind the red cloth, the magistrate of
Wind Chime Manor walked up in his official robe, holding a pair of scissors in
nis ngnt nana.
As per usual, he said a few words of courtesy.
At this moment, the crowd was already very excited. After all, they could only participate once a year. Of course, they were very excited.
“Alright, I see that everyone is already extremely excited. Then, I will announce the start of the Music Water Festival.’
The governor cut the red cloth with scissors. The next moment, the Music Water Festival officially began.
When the red cloth was cut off, cheers rose and fell, and all kinds of noises sounded one after another.
The Happy Water Festival had begun.
“Young master, if you want to go to the biggest Zhile Ship, you have to pass that small boat first.”Ye Zi pointed to the side of Zhile Boat.
Not far away from Zhile Boat was a boat that could only accommodate a few dozen people. People boarded it one after another, and people came down.
“Interesting.” Xu Bai smiled.” It seems that you have to pass a test before you can go up. What is the test? Is it music?””
Ye Zi said softly,”Young Master’s guess is correct. Naturally, it will be tested on temperament.’”‘
” Ye Zi and I should be fine. Young Master Xu, Young Master Kong Xu, and
way, we’ll have an excuse to go up.’”‘
Those who could pass the test were naturally high-ranking officials and nobles. Of course, they would bring their servants up, and no one would stop them.
Xu Bai thought for a moment and nodded.
Actually, for him, there was no problem with the temperament test. After all, he had already maxed out the Yin Xian Song.
But at this moment, it was better to keep a low profile.
If even Xu Bai had no problem, Kong Xu naturally had no problem either.
After everything was arranged, everyone took a small boat and headed to the boat next to Zhile Boat.
Along the way, Xu Bai’s divine soul was sensing the changes in the surroundings, but nothing happened.
There was nothing unusual, and there were no sneaky demon masters. It was as if nothing had happened.
However, the centipede’s words were still ringing in his ears. Something big was definitely going to happen tonight.
The small boat was getting closer and closer to the ship. In the blink of an eye, they had already arrived.
When Xu Bai stepped in, he realized that the ship was already crowded with people. There was a lamp in every corner of the ship.
There was a note in the base of each lamp.
There were all kinds of questions written on the paper.
“Young Master, if you want to answer the questions, you can bring them to the servants on the ship. You only need to tell them the answers. As for whether they are correct, the servants on the ship have already memorized them.”Ye Zi moved closer to Xu Bai and whispered.
“How can music be summarized with just one answer?” Xu Bai shook his head.”
Ye Zi said,”There’s no other way. It can only be like this.””
Xu Bai thought for a moment and agreed.
If he really wanted to achieve the best of the best, it would cost too much manpower and material resources, and it would be very difficult.
After all, how could these servants understand profound music?
