Chapter 539 Cloud Palace Swift Sound!
"The opening theme is a true masterpiece, but to perform it well requires more than a dozen instruments!"
Xiao Yu pinched his brow as he pondered, feeling a headache coming on.
He searched his memory and recalled the ensemble version he had seen online in his previous life.
“Violin... cello... bass... guitar... pipa... guzheng…” Xiao Yu closed his eyes, recalling the instruments used in the song, and wrote them down on the A4 paper in front of him.
Soon, the names of 15 musical instruments were written on the A4 paper.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yu's brush moved with the speed and grace of dragons and snakes.
Draw the shapes of all 15 musical instruments.
"I've never played many of these instruments before, so it'll be difficult to recreate them!" Although Xiao Yu remembered the names and appearances of the instruments, he had no clue about their internal structures.
"In that case, we can only use that instrument instead."
A few minutes later, Xiao Yu drew another musical instrument on the paper and wrote down "double keyboard".
Then, he began searching the warehouse for suitable materials.
"If we're going to make musical instruments, let's use the bones of this giant bat..."
Previously, he had already crafted a number of rock instruments, including guitars and basses.
Therefore, it was easier to create the instrument this time.
Soon, Xiao Yu used the torso bones of a sixth-tier giant bat to create the skeleton of a musical instrument.
"First, the keyboard system: two rows of hand keys and one row of foot keys. We'll use the limb bones of a giant bat to create a more textured and tactile sound. For the haptic sensors, we'll use wings..."
Next, the controller... and the pedals....
The sound source system remains the same as before, with a new energy route being rebuilt.
Then create several more feeds and connect them to the keyboard, pedals, and controllers...
Soon, an instrument that was almost identical in shape and size to a piano appeared.
The instrument has a black and white exterior, with a crystal shell crafted by Xiao Yu, as exquisite and beautiful as a jade carving.
However, a closer look reveals that this instrument is far more complex than a piano.
It not only has more rows of keyboards, but also pedals and more complex controllers, etc...
The instrument Xiao Yu created was the legendary double-keyboard instrument that could produce a variety of different timbres and create the effect of a whole orchestra by one person.
"Phew~ Mission accomplished!"
............
A moment later, Xiao Yu had just come out of the studio when he heard the red-haired girl's voice.
“Brother, the transaction with the Mechanical City and the deals with the eighth-tier city lords have all been finalized, and the goods are ready. Take a look.” Honglian handed Xiao Yu several A4 sheets of paper listings.
"Hmm, let me see." Xiao Yu nodded lightly, took the document, and glanced at it.
In the past few days, two elders from the city have come to see him several times.
Perhaps the battle against the beast tide frightened the two old guys.
Now, their attitude towards Xiao Yu is noticeably more respectful.
Originally, they only planned to purchase 10 million worth of goods in Longcheng, but now they've purchased over 30 million!
Among the various forces that came to Dragon City this time, there were a total of four eighth-level city lords.
The four city lords also reached an agreement with Xiao Yu on a deal, with the transaction amount for each city not less than ten million!
"Bicycle sales are getting worse and worse!" Xiao Yu glanced at the sales report and sighed slightly.
Although some bicycles were sold after the three cities arrived in Longcheng.
However, despite having hundreds of people in the three major cities, they only sold less than a hundred units.
Compared to the previous booming sales, the current situation is clearly quite bleak.
"There's nothing we can do about it."
Honglian shrugged and explained, "Those who live in Dragon City think bicycles are excellent because the roads are very smooth. But those who don't live in Dragon City, after riding them in the wilderness, think bicycles are rather useless. Once the news spreads..."
Bicycles can be ridden very fast in Longcheng because the roads there are flat.
However, in the wilderness, the roads are bumpy and uneven.
The speed of riding a bicycle is definitely not as fast as running.
Moreover, riding a bicycle on a bumpy, desolate field will make your buttocks bounce around a lot.
Xiao Yu nodded and said, "I understand. I'm already researching and improving the bicycle."
He had already drawn up a design for improving the bicycle and handed it over to A Qiu and Dong Dong.
“Okay, brother! If there are no problems, I’ll go and make the deal with the various powers.” Honglian said after Xiao Yu finished reading.
People from the city of machinery and various powerful factions are all waiting to trade with her.
"Go ahead..." Xiao Yu waved his hand with a smile.
In the afternoon, Honglian completed transactions with each of the major powers.
When they met again while waiting for dinner.
The red-haired girl took out a large pile of animal skin bags from her storage bracelet.
"Great! My income has increased significantly these past few days!" Seeing so many energy stones, Xiao Yu's eyes lit up. He immediately used the system to exchange them all, and was overjoyed once again.
"Another 70 million energy points! The energy points have once again surpassed 100 million!"
............
Late at night, in the courtyard of the city lord's mansion.
"I have great news to share! My brother-in-law composed music specifically for 'Journey to the West' today!" Xinglan said excitedly, grabbing Xiao Yu's arm.
"Oh? Another new work?" Honglian asked with a smile.
“That’s right, it’s music I composed for the stage play ‘Journey to the West’,” Xiao Yu said frankly.
"A stage play?" The women's attention was instantly drawn, and they looked at Xiao Yu expectantly.
Xiao Yu shrugged and sighed, "I would like to make it into a TV series or a movie, but unfortunately... the technology doesn't support it, so for now we can only make it into a stage play."
"Movie? TV series?" The women looked puzzled.
The city lord has used new words again, which I can't understand at all.
However, I'm inexplicably looking forward to it.
"Alright, same as always, let's go to the courtyard," Xiao Yu waved his hand and smiled.
Although, Longcheng is currently completely unable to film movies and TV series, it lacks the necessary conditions.
However, he believes that in the future, he will definitely be able to restore the Earth to its former glory!
As he spoke, Xiao Yu waved his hand, and the double keyboard in the studio appeared in the courtyard.
The women, carrying popcorn, peanuts, and various cold drinks, all came to the courtyard.
"here we go."
After saying something softly, Xiao Yu sat down in front of the double keyboard rack, putting his hands and feet back in place.
Meanwhile, an A4 sheet of paper was placed on the piano stand, containing a musical composition.
While imagining the birth of the Monkey King in his mind, Xiao Yu began to play the music using the controller.
He pressed the control key with his right hand and then slammed the down button down twice.
Suddenly, the familiar 'thump-thump' sound from their past lives rang out, and all the women's eyes lit up.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yu began to use both his hands and feet, pressing the footpad with his left foot and the pedal with his right foot.
As the women listened to his performance, they gradually became engrossed in it, as if they were witnessing a series of wonderful scenes.
The birth of the Monkey King was earth-shattering, as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had split open.
Then, the Monkey King soared through the clouds, the Great Sage was drunk, and the White Dragon Horse made its appearance...
The fairy Chang'e is dancing, and Pigsy is flirting with her...
