Chapter 640 I vote for Zhong Liyu
"How many stars are needed to cross the river?"
Jiang He asked.
The old man said, "The ferryman can ferry those who are destined to cross."
Jiang He changed her words:
"How many spirit stones are needed to cross the river?"
Upon hearing the key words from Jiang He's mouth, the old man finally reacted, and his previously expressionless face became lively:
“Young lady, I have been in this water for over a hundred years, and I only charge one thousand spirit stones for each person crossing the river.”
Before the old man could finish speaking, Zhong Liyu burst into a tirade of curses:
"A thousand spirit stones! Why don't you just rob someone?"
The old man sat still on the boat, ignoring Zhong Liyu's words.
Seeing that she had gotten the answer, Jiang He sighed. Renewing her sect qualification wouldn't cost that much money. She wholeheartedly agreed with Zhong Liyu's words, but there was no time to waste. Jiang He threw down a thousand spirit stones and boarded the ship.
The cultivators following Jiang He all threw spirit stones.
Sword cultivators who had no spirit stones on them managed to get on the ship by pooling their resources.
Once the spirit stones arrived on the ship, they all went into the old man's mustard seed bag.
Jiang He pursed her lips and glanced at the mustard seed bag several times.
Sigh, a thousand spirit stones gone just like that.
The monks in the audience glanced at the boarding requirements and couldn't help but tighten their belts:
"Damn it, this is a robbery! This old man doesn't look like one of the participating cultivators. Where did he come from?"
"Didn't Zhong Liyu say it should be an NPC?"
"I'm rolling my eyes a bit. A thousand spirit stones would break my heart."
"I don't know who arranged it, whether it's a technologically simulated human or a real person."
"It looks like a real person."
"Now doesn't seem like the time to focus on this. Kong Ji and Wan Qi Zi Ye are both coming this way, and Pei Ci is also heading towards the Endless Waters after reading the note."
"The boat is moving! Something's not right, the water isn't calm."
Upon noticing the rising waves, the monster fish leaped straight out. They were enormous, each as tall as two adult cultivators, and each fish was covered in mottled scales, the color of which resembled rust.
They leaped across the water, their mouths widening to reveal sharp, knife-like teeth.
"What a huge fish! Oh my god! It won't get in here, will it?" Zhong Liyu's eyes widened like saucers, afraid that the fish would pounce and bite her.
"Probably not, he jumped."
Jin Dazhu said that he watched the fish thrash up, and then, just as it hit the boat, it was smashed down by an invisible protective shield.
"These days even fish are S-rank. The monsters in this secret realm are really powerful."
Zhong Liyu had just finished speaking.
The small boat sailed away from the shore, and not far away, two figures, one yellow and one green, came running.
The one dressed in yellow is Wan Qiziye.
Feeling empty and carefree, they didn't bring any teammates in order to keep moving forward.
The two arrived at the water's edge, and Jiang He boarded the boat as well.
Just as Kongji closed his eyes and turned the prayer beads, a melody from a zither drifted over.
"Why did Li Song come here on that donkey?"
Li Songcheng walked slowly, so he simply sat down halfway and set up his guqin. His music was domineering, and the notes kept reaching our ears.
As the music reached the surface, many more fish leaped out of the surging water.
The monsters kept ramming the boat's protective shield. Sitting on the boat, Zhong Liyu was still shaken. He watched the fish lunge at him and the old man who had stopped rowing due to the music. Zhong Liyu hurriedly took out his erhu.
"Li Songcheng, since you have no martial ethics, then I won't either. This time, I'll show you the strength I've cultivated for five years."
Zhong Liyu was very talkative; before she finished speaking, she took out her erhu and began to play.
Seeing that things were going badly, Li Ling quickly handed Jin Dazhu a special earmuff:
"Put it on first."
The people sitting on the boat silently put on their earmuffs.
Jiang He covered her head; a bad premonition was coming again.
"The great river flows eastward, and the stars in the sky point to the Big Dipper."
(Hehehehe, like the Big Dipper!) (A bowl of wine for a life-or-death friendship!)
Let's go! We have it all!
(Hehehehe, I have them all!) ~ (I'll go through fire and water without looking back!) ~~ ...
The stirring erhu music, paired with lyrics translated into interstellar language, made the melody and sound exceptionally loud.
The harsh erhu sound gained a slight rhythm, but only a slight one.
However, the two work together remarkably well.
The fit is awful...
Halfway there, Li Songcheng wiped his face, and loud voices echoed across the water:
"When you see injustice, speak out! When it's time to act, act!"
Wandering across the land with boundless energy! (Strike while the iron is hot!)
(Rushing across the land with great fanfare!) ~Hey, ya...
He rubbed his forehead and put his hands between his ears.
"No, has he gone mad?"
What kind of lousy tune is this? He was well-versed in all kinds of music and had never heard this tune before. It was ridiculously high-pitched and ridiculously unpleasant to listen to.
Li Songcheng turned his head away, suddenly feeling that even the zither in his hands no longer smelled good.
Li Songcheng, holding his zither, pondered for a long time before stepping into the bamboo forest. He placed his toes on two-thirds of the bamboo, which bent but did not break.
He stood on the bamboo, his legs crossed and bent, as if there were a chair below.
Li Songcheng placed the zither firmly on his lap, and the sound of the zither was warm and gentle.
He was clashing with Li Songcheng.
The sounds of the qin and erhu were equally captivating.
However, it only lasted for three seconds, but the ear-piercing sound was even more powerful.
Li Ling stood at the bow of the boat, her lips turned down. At this moment, she suddenly felt that being numbed by Li Songcheng's music was actually quite nice.
Right now, her senses have been numbed by Zhong Liyu.
Whenever Li Ling hears Zhong Liyu's erhu playing, he always gets the feeling that Zhong Liyu can't distinguish between friend and foe.
She really is going to have a nervous breakdown.
The viewers in the live stream were equally captivated, their expressions glazed over, not because of the beauty of the music, but simply because they were completely mesmerized.
[: Okay, it really is as Zhong Liyu said. Good heavens, which music master did he learn from? Just listening to this erhu makes my head spin, as if my brain is being soaked in excrement. I can't believe how painful it is.]
What kind of music repair expert? No doubt about it, it's just amateurish, it's terrifying! In the middle of the night, my neighbor came over to complain about my singing, saying I shouldn't sing if it's so awful.
Hahahaha, hiccup! Give me a laugh, this is indiscriminate attack!
Hey everyone, stop laughing! What kind of music is this? Sound engineer, come out and claim this piece: "The Great River Flows East"?
Just to clarify, this isn't a piece from our music editing textbook. As for whether it's some kind of heretical cultivation manual, I have no idea.
I just took off my earplugs because the sound was too loud, and now when I'm watching the comments, everyone's calling me a heretic. Looks like I didn't mishear.
Please, Li Songcheng, let's give way to Zhongli Yu since we're both skilled in martial arts. Otherwise, even if Li Songcheng isn't deaf, I will be! Is this even a human being capable of playing such a tune?
LOL, there are just too many talented people in the sect competition. If they keep playing at that sound, I reckon even the people on the boat won't be able to take it.
No way! Don't you guys think it's super catchy? The drum beats are really strong, it's perfect for all sorts of audio editing tools.
Okay, the people upstairs have gone crazy too, they're actually starting to think it sounds good. Why don't you turn the volume up a bit more and say it again?
For the first time, I desperately hope that a cultivator will be eliminated from the sect competition as soon as possible. I'm hoping they'll create a link for netizens to vote on which cultivators will be eliminated. I'll vote for Zhong Liyu!
