In order to facilitate piano practice, the house had specially vacated an empty room and renovated it into a piano room. The piano placed there was expensive from the outside, not to mention its soft tone. It was not a standard that those crude goods could achieve.
Tang Xiu and Su Muxi were sitting on the sofa next to them, reading a book while sipping tea and listening to music.
Xia Qiuyin stood beside the piano and focused on teaching Tong Chenxi. From time to time, she would point out the problems that appeared during the performance. Occasionally, she would sit down and demonstrate it herself.
Even though Tang Xiu didn't know how to play the piano, he could still hear the huge difference between the two. Xia Qiuyin's performance was like flowing water, and the beautiful melody had been flowing on her fingertips. It was sometimes melodious and sometimes choppy, which incisively and vividly mobilized the audience's emotions.
Half an hour later, the class came to an end. When the two women left to drink water and rest, Tang Xiu went to the piano and sat down.
His right index finger gently tapped on the keys.
"Di, playing the piano, piano experience 1!”
As expected, the piano was a professional instrument that many people learned. It could also activate the system's skill upgrade. However, he did not expect that he could gain one point of experience by pressing the keys. If that was the case...
Tang Xiu's index finger quickly swept across the keys,
Dorimifasorasudo…
Every time a key was pressed, the corresponding note would be played, and the experience points would be collected.
"Di, playing the piano, piano experience 1!”
"Beep, piano experience is full, automatically upgrading!”
"Ding, upgrade complete. Congratulations to the host for upgrading the piano to level 1!”
Immediately, a stream of data flowed into his mind. With Tang Xiu's brain capacity that had been strengthened many times, he could easily digest this information. After integrating it, the most basic knowledge of playing the piano was imprinted into his mind.
Tang Xiu let out a satisfied sigh. Just as he was about to continue pressing the keys to gain experience, he saw Tong Chenxi's pretty face close to him, glaring at him.
"Is it fun?" Upon seeing Tang Xiu's gaze turn over, Tong Chenxi said lightly with a straight face.
"I'm not playing, but learning the piano!" Tang Xiu explained with a smile.”
"Are you looking down on my intelligence?" Tong Chenxi asked with her hands on her hips. Although I lost to you in the questions, I'm a professional when it comes to the piano. You don't even know the most basic gestures, so how can you be serious about learning the piano?”
Xia Qiuyin, who was standing next to him, also frowned. As a professional piano master, she was actually more annoyed by Tang Xiu's behavior of ruining the piano without knowing anything. However, she didn't say anything out of politeness because she was unfamiliar with him before. Now, she finally couldn't help but say,
"This student, the piano is not something that can be played well with one finger meditation. If you really want to learn, I can teach you the most basic fingering. You can first use the table as a piano to simulate your training.”
What he meant was that he should stop causing trouble here and go to the side to practice finger techniques in the air to pass the time.
A faint smile appeared on Tang Xiu's face. He glanced at the two women and indifferently said,"Are you saying that I don't know how to play the zither?”
Tong Chenxi immediately nodded and said," Of course. A piano player can tell how experienced they are just by looking at the basic gestures. You're obviously clueless!"”
As for Xia Qiuyin, she didn't even bother to say anything. Clearly, she didn't have a good impression of this guy who didn't know how to repent even after being pointed out.
Tang Xiu looked at Chen Xi and thought of something. He then smiled and said,"Little fool, since you wanted to bet with me again, then I agree. If I can play a piece of zither score, you will lose. How about it?”
"Alright!" Tong Chenxi simply couldn't believe that there was such a good thing as a pie falling from the sky. According to her experience, Tang Xiu was absolutely clueless about piano. Even her teacher had the same opinion. Under such circumstances, even if he was given the simplest music score, he would not be able to play it smoothly.
She agreed immediately without thinking, not even caring that the other party teased her for being a little fool.
In order to prevent Tang Xiu from going back on his words, he directly took the music score book from the side and casually flipped a page before handing it over. He quickly said,"Just play this song!"
Tang Xiu looked at the score. It was the piano piece "Canon in D Major". The score was really not difficult, and even a third or fourth-grade piano student could play it smoothly.
The next moment, Tang Xiu raised his hands and gently placed them above the piano keys. His mind was filled with thoughts as he instantly memorized the entire score. He then closed his eyes to cleanse his thoughts. When he opened his eyes again, an indifferent aura faintly spread out from his body.
Tong Chenxi, who had been prepared to watch the joke, was so shocked that her jaw almost fell off. Her large, watery eyes were wide open, and her two small hands were clenched into fists. If she still did not realize that she had been deceived, she would really be a little fool.
Even Xia Qiuyin, who hadn't paid attention to Tang Xiu, turned her head curiously at this time and looked at his back as he sat in front of the piano. Regardless of how well he played, his calm temperament alone was enough to scare a large group of people.
His slender index finger gently pressed the keys, and a series of lively notes suddenly sounded, striking into everyone's hearts.
With a gentle chord, it slowly became heavier. Memories and past events slowly surged into his mind as the music unfolded.
Then, it was the most familiar melody. The calm mood began to rise and fall with the music, immersing people in warmth and sadness.
In the end, the zither fell from the high note and slowly returned to silence. It was like a person's life. Those times that could not be found again, those love that could not be found again, gradually returned to dullness in frustration and melancholy, leaving only a sigh.
As the last note ended, Tang Xiu's fingers once again placed on the keys. However, the magical sound lingered in the room for a long time.
