Chapter 225 Classic Tracks

In the study room of the Neptune Palace, Quero looked at the documents in his hand and reported: "The Taloris family, the Riis family, and the Gata family all sent people to inquire about what happened in the Temple of the Storm God, and Governor Batum also... …”

"That's enough! They are asking in name, but in reality they are questioning. Of course they are not willing to let go of the opportunity they finally got." Ferrego interrupted Quiro's report and looked at the documents on the desk with a gloomy expression. , was silent for a moment, and said: "Send someone to tell the keykeepers and governors that I will give corresponding compensation."

"Sir, you..." Quero's expression changed slightly, and he wanted to persuade him to say something, but Ferrege raised his hand to indicate that he didn't need to say any more.

This explosion of faith caused by his surveillance of the Temple of the Storm God will undoubtedly greatly increase the influence of various temples and shrines, as well as their overall strength. This will have a great impact on the city's trade governor and the keykeeper's family. It's not a good thing to say.

Under this situation, the power of the trade governor and the keykeeper family in the city will inevitably be greatly affected.

Naturally, they will not vent their dissatisfaction to the various temples and shrines on the Island of the Gods at this moment, nor will they do anything to the Temple of the Storm God, the other side of the explosion of faith. After all, Liga, the priest of the Storm God, is already recognized God's Favored One, attacking her will definitely anger the number of followers of the Storm God who are increasing rapidly.

Therefore, the trade governor and the keykeeper family could only vent their dissatisfaction on the source of the incident, Neptune.

Although they can't point fingers at Neptune and blame him, they can cooperate with each other to send inquiry letters to Neptune, so that Ferrego can be surrounded by these soft knives and harass Neptune over and over again, but Neptune still can't say anything. , and according to the rules, he must also reply to these governors and keykeepers one by one.

In the end, he could only choose to spend money to eliminate the disaster and transfer part of the benefits in exchange for exposing the matter.

At this moment, he also began to regret that he had bought the magic armor, but the regret in his heart did not last long, and turned into resentment, resentment for Linde who had not yet seen a trace.

Just when Neptune was resenting Lind for not appearing in front of him obediently, the object of his resentment was sitting leisurely outside the tavern next to the moon pool in the south of Neptune Palace, listening to the bard addressing the visiting socialite next to the moon pool. Huayue and Yeying offer their singing voices.

The Moon Pond is the focus of the Sweet Water Canal. A water channel guides fresh water into the water spray reliefs in the Moon Pond. The fresh water sprayed out gathers around it to form a huge fresh water pond.

The pond is connected to the waterway in the city. Nobles will take boats to dock here and go to the Iron Treasury on the north side to do business, so you will usually see a large number of boats docked around here.

However, today, the small piers at the edge of the moonpool were all empty. There was not a single boat, only two flower boats specially designed for Braavos socialites, docked there.

These two ships belong to Nightshadow and Flower Moon, the two most popular socialites in Braavos. This is why a large number of bards, warriors and ordinary people watching the excitement gathered around the Moonpool.

Courtesans in Braavos belong to a category of people with special status. They are not prostitutes, but a symbol of status, just like the crown on the king's head. In addition to their beautiful appearance, each of them also has They are all knowledgeable about the past and present, know all kinds of music and songs, and possess exquisite swordsmanship as a water dancer. They can be called the closest to perfect women.

What they do every day is usually to accompany the dignitaries of Braavos to various banquets. If they meet the person they like, they will spend the night with him, but if they don't want to spend the night with the guest, the guest cannot force them. , even if that guest is the Sea King of Braavos.

Because of the courtesan's superb negotiation skills and knowledge, the Sea King of Braavos often appoints courtesans as deputy diplomatic envoys to travel to various countries and city-states around the world to participate in various diplomatic affairs. This also makes the courtesans of Braavos His name spread throughout the world.

In Braavos, there are not many people who are qualified to be courtesans. There are less than fifty people in total. Among these courtesans, except for a few outsiders, more of them come from four courteous families. Now the night Shadow and Hanazuki are from two of these families.

The two most famous courtesans in Braavos were at the Moonpool mainly to recruit musicians for the Moonsinger's Day of Redemption in a few days.

The Day of the Moonsinger's Redemption is an important festival for the Braavos people, second only to the anniversary of the Mask. This festival is to celebrate the year when the Moonsinger guided the slaves who escaped Valyria to the sanctuary of Braavos. place.

Because of this, all parties in Braavos attach great importance to this festival. The Temple of the Moonsinger directly found two socialites with the best music appreciation in the city to specially select the festival musicians.

As a result, all the musicians in the city gathered next to the Moon Pond, one by one, offering their most exquisite skills and singing voices to the two courtesans on the flower boat.

Among the participating musicians, there are not only locals from Braavos, but also musicians from all over the world. This is a good opportunity for them to make a name for themselves, as long as they can become a festival on the Moonsinger's Redemption Day. Musicians, then they will become famous all over the world and become guests at the banquets of kings, lords and nobles. They will no longer sit in taverns and beg for money from drinkers.

The person who is performing now should be a Westeros man. He is using a small war drum used by the army to give orders. He beats a rhythm and sings Lind's Song of the Chosen One. Obviously he just wants to take advantage of the recent situation. What happened in the city was related to the Chosen One, and it was just a trick to get more attention.

Unfortunately, he was a bit self-defeating. The drumbeat he created was not suitable for melodious music like the Song of the Chosen One. He was stopped by two socialites at the same time just as he played, and the people around him also booed.

Then another local singer from Braavos came on stage. She also sang the Song of the Chosen One, and had the same idea as the Westeros musician.

However, she did not use any musical instrument, but sang directly with her own voice.

The moment she started singing, everyone around the moon pool fell silent. Everyone was listening to this famous song from Westeros. Until the last line of the lyrics was finished, everyone was still immersed in each other's singing, until someone Applause, the entire Moon Pond was suddenly surrounded by applause.

Linde, who was sitting on the balcony of the nearby tavern, also stood up and applauded the singer. He had to say that this was the best song of the Chosen One he had ever heard, and it was very similar to the version he heard in his previous life.

Yeying walked out of the cabin of his flower boat and said to the singer on the stage: "Belle from the Leoros family, your singing voice is still so beautiful. I hope to hear you sing at the festival."

Huayue on the flower boat next to her didn't say anything. She just asked the servant to give a gem to the singer and invited her to have a tryst at his house at night.

Because of the amazing singing voice of this female singer named Belle, all the bards and musicians who came on stage became mediocre, and it would be inappropriate to describe the surrounding atmosphere as sleepy. However, it wasn't until a musician from Miracle Harbor took the stage that everyone regained their spirits a little.

The reason why people reacted like this is not because this musician is a celebrity, but because the instrument used by this musician is not any traditional instrument, but one that is said to be created by Linde, the Chosen One. An instrument called a violin.

As we all know, Linde is a music master. The Song of the Chosen One written by him has been sung for many years and is still enduring. It is an inevitable repertoire in almost every grand banquet. Therefore, when the violin appears in the Summer Hall, this kind of song is still popular. The new instrument soon spread throughout the world on merchant ships.

Many musicians are trying to learn how to use this instrument, but they are still unable to play any music, and all they get are some unpleasant and harsh sounds, so they all think that the instrument created by Linde is a failure. .

Now seeing someone so confidently performing on stage with a violin, everyone who knew something about the violin thought that the other person might have found the correct way to play the violin, and they all pricked up their ears and listened.

The man found a chair, sat on the stage, clamped the sides of the violin with his feet, then put the bowstring on the strings and started to play.

Just after the first call, everyone made a sound of disappointment, because the sound the other party made was so unpleasant that it made people feel itchy all over.

"That's enough! Get out!" Someone immediately couldn't help shouting loudly.

Another musician threw the wine glass in his hand directly at the musician and said loudly: "This instrument is a piece of rubbish. Only brainless idiots will use this kind of rubbish instrument."

Hearing this man's comment, everyone around him agreed, and the musician's face turned red and he stood on the stage in embarrassment.

Linde, who was sitting on the balcony of the tavern, heard the shouting below and couldn't help but frowned with an unhappy look on his face.

If they were just criticizing the musician, Lind would not be displeased. After all, the musician's performance was indeed rubbish and he used the violin as a cello. But they should not criticize the instrument because this instrument was specially made for Nymelie. Made in Asia.

On the way back to the castle after attending a banquet, Nymeria said in a chat that Lind had not written a new song for a long time. She wanted to listen to Lind's new song on her birthday, and it was based on the Battle of the Stepstone Islands. Prototype write a song.

Naturally, Linde would not refuse his wife's request. He quickly selected one of the most famous songs from his previous life, which was related to sailing and naval battles. For this reason, he also brought the violin from his previous life to this world and played it specially for Nymeria. once.

Originally, he only regarded this instrument and that song as Nymeria's birthday gift, and had no intention of spreading it. However, in order to please Linde, an official who came to the castle took the initiative to promote the violin and sold this brand-new instrument through the Miracle Chamber of Commerce. It was promoted to all parts of the world, and this is how it is now.

Since the appearance of the violin involved Nymeria, Lind naturally didn't want to see it being slandered so much, so he jumped directly from the balcony of the tavern to the street, pushed away the crowd in front of him, and walked to the performance stage.

Lind came to the Moon Pool today. He planned to sit down for a while and then go to see Neptune and end his trip to Braavos, so he did not put on any disguise, and the clothes he wore were also the traditional aristocratic clothes of Westeros.

When Lind came on stage, the people around him couldn't help but look at this Westeros man who was dressed in ordinary clothes and had an equally unremarkable appearance. They didn't know why they felt that this man had an inexplicable attraction that made them endure it. I couldn't help but quiet down to see what he would do next, so the Moon Pool, which was noisy just now, instantly became quiet, and the two socialites in the flower boat also stood on the bow of the boat and looked curiously at the performance stage.

"This is not how you use the violin." Linde walked up to the musician, reached out and took the violin from his hand, looked at it, and said, "It is the standard violin of the Miracle Chamber of Commerce. It is well maintained."

After saying that, he motioned to the musicians to stand aside, moved the chairs away, then stood in the middle of the performance stage, adjusted the strings, and after confirming the pitch, he clamped the violin under his neck and put the bow string on the piano. on the string.

The musicians in the crowd were all surprised when they saw Lind's posture on the violin, because they had never thought of such a weird way of playing.

As the first notes burst out from the violin, Pirates of the Caribbean, a classic piece from the previous life, appeared in the ears of the public in the world of ice and fire.

When everyone heard the first passionate music, they fell into an inexplicable hallucination, as if they were in the midst of turbulent waves, with storms raging from heaven and earth, and countless warships rising and falling in front of them, and the soldiers stood in front of them. People on the deck were shouting and fighting. An unprecedented hot feeling spread throughout their bodies, making them want to fight and shout.

When the song ended, everyone was still immersed in the excitement brought by the music and could not calm down for a long time. It was not until Lind handed the violin back to the musician that everyone woke up, and cheers spread throughout the moon pool. , everyone fell into a frenzied mood, and even the two socialites, who were known for their stability and elegance, shouted excitedly, as if they couldn't vent the heat in their hearts without this method.

The musician from Miracle Harbor was also very excited at the moment, because he had never thought that this instrument could play such exciting music. The reason why he took the violin on stage to perform was mainly because he wanted to prove to others that Lind The instrument produced is not useless as people say, and now it has been proved that this instrument is not useless, but far exceeds the feeling of other instruments.

At this time, he suddenly thought that if there was anyone in the world who knew how to use this instrument best, and who could best play such passionate music, there would be no one except Lind Terra, the maker of the instrument. There is no second person.

The musician who discovered this was about to turn back to look for Linde, but Linde had already disappeared into the crowd.

At this time, the excited social butterfly Huayue seemed to have thought of something. She covered her mouth tightly, as if she wanted to swallow the words that had reached her throat. In the end, she couldn't help it and shouted loudly: "Lind Tai La, the person who played just now is Lind Terra, the Chosen One!"

As her shouts were heard by others, everyone came back to their senses and realized that there was a commotion in Braavos during this period. Lynd Terra, whom Aquaman had been searching for for many days, had just been found in front of everyone. Next, he played such an unusual and stunning piece of music in front of them without any scruples.

This legendary story actually happened around him and was witnessed by him. For a time, everyone's enthusiasm that had just subsided began to expand again. Everyone shouted Linde's name. This voice gradually spread from the moon pool and spread. Arrived elsewhere.
