Elven History Song

Jia Xie briefly told Ling Aohan a few exploration locations, including the royal cities in the North Continent, the Middle Continent and the West Continent. Ling Aohan thought about it carefully. First, he found Ling Aoyan in the Middle Continent, and it was unlikely to find anyone else. The West Continent There was a lot of commotion before I found Natasha, so the next best way to get rid of her would be Hokuriku. After all, I never went to Hokuriku to take a look.

"Hokuriku? We might even meet the Ghost King."

"If he dares to come, I will kill and bury him."

"Now that you've decided, let's set off. Dance of Light."

The two of them turned into light due to Gaxie's skills and instantly arrived at the junction of the southeastern city and the south city of Hokuriku. The regional division of Hokuriku is very simple. With the central royal city as the center, it is divided into six urban areas of different sizes. The most prosperous of them is the city in the south. From the map, Ling Aohan does not recognize it. What I wrote, but I heard from people around me that the name of this urban area is "Wu".

"Let's start here first. I'll leave it to you, little handsome boy."

"As expected, do you still want me to negotiate?"

"Haha, you can't let a weak girl like me strike up a conversation. It's easy to be misunderstood and cause unnecessary trouble."

The two of them bought a map in a small town. When they bought the map in that store, the shopkeeper looked at the two of them very carefully. Ling Aohan wanted to talk, but the shopkeeper just gave him a map. He told him two copper coins and never said a word except these four words.

This town is not big, probably similar to or even smaller than the town of Gegu. There are very few people here. Places located at the junction should generally be prosperous, but this town behaves completely differently.

Coming to this world, Ling Aohan has seen many such abnormal phenomena. There must be a reason for everything. The small towns at the junction of the Eastern Continent are very prosperous, and even the economies of the small towns at the junction of the Western Continent that are often used as post stations are also very prosperous. Developed, but as a town that is almost necessary to pass through at the junction and has the shortest distance, it seems very cold.

"I feel like there's a second Drinkett here."

"I feel the same way. It's so deserted here."

"Do you know anything??"

"I don't know. It's always difficult to get information about Hokuriku. People here are very tight-lipped. No matter how you ask them, they refuse to answer."

"So you're going to let me pry their mouths open?"

"Haha, handsome boy, you must be able to do that. After all, you have gained quite a lot of people's hearts."

While the two were talking, they had already reached the center of the town. There were scattered people on the street, and there wasn't much conversation between them. It stands to reason that in a small town like this, almost everyone would know each other, but everyone didn't say hello when they met.

When those people saw Jiaxie and Ling Aohan, they would stare at them, but the eyes looking at them were full of indifference and even some hostility. Ling Aohan felt that the people here were even more xenophobic than the people in Gegu's small town, but they were not the kind who would directly use force to drive them out like Gegu and the others. What they used was cold violence. If you're unhappy, I won't pay attention to you. Anyway, since no one cares about you, it's impossible for you to stay here and you will be forced to leave sooner or later.

"What an outrageous move."

"Yeah, this is even worse than driving us out with sticks."

Jia Xieshi has also noticed the attitude of people here towards outsiders. She does not recommend Ling Aohan to start here. After all, it is much easier to obtain information from Wu in front than here and it can save a lot of trouble.

"I think so too. After all, it's too difficult to obtain information here. I don't have the same prestige in Hokuriku as I do in East Continent. It's still very difficult to obtain useful information here for the time being."

"Now that you've decided, let's keep going. Stay in this place as little as possible. You'll always feel uncomfortable if you stay in this place for too long."

Jiaxie took Ling Aohan's arm and the two of them headed in the direction of Wu, but Ling Aohan knew that they would come back sooner or later. This place gave Ling Aohan an indescribable feeling. He felt that there seemed to be something else here. Something he had to know.

Wu is not far from here. It takes about an hour to walk after this town. In order to save some time, Jiaxie released the Dance of Light again and took Ling Aohan to the center of Wu. The endless flow of people and the bustling downtown formed a sharp contrast with the newly deserted town. People came and went very fast, as if they would be unable to catch up if they slowed down.

"In some ways I don't like such a fast pace of life."

"Me too."

There are many stores here, including a music store. Maybe his behavior of staring at the piano store was seen by Jia Xieshi, who chuckled lightly and took Ling Aohan's arm and walked into the piano store. The owner of the music store is an old man who looks to be in his fifties. His gray hair and the traces of age on his face indicate that he has spent a long time, just like this old-looking music store.

"Young man, do you want to see Qin?"

The uncle came up and asked Ling Aohan, but he didn't seem very enthusiastic. This music store displays mostly pianos and violins, as well as some musical instruments that Ling Aohan has never seen before and that he does not recognize.

"Are all the pianos here made by you?"

"Yeah, if you like it you can try playing it twice."

Ling Aohan seemed to hear a hint of ridicule when the uncle said this. Ling Aohan hated it when others dared to ridicule him. Although he would not be ridiculed at critical moments, as a generation of emperors, he would never be looked down upon easily.

"What's the best piano here?"

The uncle casually pointed to a white piano with a simple yet noble shape. Ling Aohan walked up and sat on the seat in front of the piano. Jiaxie leaned next to him and said

"Little handsome boy, can you play the piano?"

Ling Aohan smiled and shook his head

"Not really, but I know a little bit about it."

Ling Aohan raised his hand and pressed a few keys on the piano, which meant the beginning of the piano sound. Ling Aohan frowned slightly.

"Uncle, you can't lie to me. When I say the best, I don't mean the most beautiful piano."

After hearing Ling Aohan's words, the uncle showed a surprised look and turned to Ling Aohan.

"There's nothing wrong with this piano."

"There is nothing wrong with the piano, but it's not the best one in this store. Although I haven't done much research on pianos, I can still hear the tone. If you say this is the best one in this store, Qin, I’m afraid I can only blame myself for looking at the wrong store.”

Ling Aohan stood up and wanted to leave with Jiaxie, but the uncle hurriedly stopped them from behind.

"Young man, it's my fault. I thought you were like other rich people who only care about the appearance and price and don't care about the real value of the piano. I did lie to you. This is just the most ordinary piano in the store. , this one is the best.”
