“Is there original music played on the pipa in the game?”
“Could it be using ancient music?”
“Many times, some ancient music that is not well-known to the public is also mistaken for original music.”
Professor Liu's eyes lit up when he saw the barrage.
Then he calmed down.
After all, Professor Liu had encountered similar situations many times.
Now, in some so-called national style music, the pipa is occasionally used.
But the tunes are all hard to describe.
The vast majority are difficult to bring out the tonal characteristics of the pipa.
They are clearly more suitable for Western instruments like the piano or guitar.
They are simply played on the pipa.
It could be said that it is only for the sake of having the pipa.
Occasionally, some pipa melodies are decent, but upon closer listening, they are all using ancient music.
It's not bad, but it is still a layer removed.
Because he had expectations, and had been disappointed too many times, Professor Liu was not optimistic about the music in the game that the barrage mentioned.
Then, those two barrages appeared again.
“Professor Liu, you can go listen, many streamers are now live-streaming this game.”
“Yes, yes, I recommend Zhan Lao’s livestream, she plays with a lot of character, she’ll fight a boss at least ten or twenty times, you can listen carefully to the background music.”
“Is that playing with character? She’s just bad!”
Professor Liu looked at the barrages in the livestream, and slowly became curious.
Soon, under the guidance of the netizens, he came to Zhan Lao’s livestream.
At this time, Zhan Lao had already reached the pool where Bai Yi Xiu Shi was located.
She was building herself up mentally.
Tonight’s livestream, Zhan Lao had already died at the hands of Bai Yi Xiu Shi at least ten times.
Even so, that was already a superhuman performance.
“Brothers, I’m going to beat this Bai Yi Xiu Shi today.”
“I’ve found the trick, trust me.”
After Zhan Lao psyched herself up, her state clearly improved.
She waved her stick and charged forward.
Once she entered battle, the background music played.
The other viewers in the livestream were all paying attention to the battle between Zhan Lao and Bai Yi Xiu Shi.
Only Professor Liu, who had just entered the livestream, had his eyes light up.
“Marvelous, the drumbeat is strong.”
“The pipa comes in at just the right time.”
“This tune… it’s not a variation of ancient music, it’s a new composition.”
Professor Liu’s expression was becoming more and more excited.
He began to dance in the livestream.
“Rubbing the strings,”
“Picking the strings,”
“Phoenix nods,”
“Twisting the strings,”
“Wow, the composer of this piece is very skilled with the pipa.”
“He was actually able to incorporate all these traditional playing techniques into a new composition.”
“Full of emotion, I can almost see the fierce fighting on the battlefield.”
“No, in the game, it’s real fighting.”
“The rhythm should be faster here.”
“Follow the rhythm of the background music.”
Professor Liu couldn’t help himself, he sent two barrages in Zhan Lao’s livestream.
Zhan Lao was currently fighting a hard battle against the first phase of Bai Yi Xiu Shi.
As an abstract streamer, Zhan Lao’s gaming skills could not be said to be professional, it could be said that she had no skills at all.
At the beginning, she was completely lacking in technique, it was all instinct.
Her output was basically by shouting.
After playing for a while, she had now barely caught up with the level of ordinary players.
However, Zhan Lao’s mentality was absolutely top-notch, her psychological preparation was first-rate.
She wouldn’t get discouraged after losing.
And though she seemed abstract, she was actually very intelligent.
Currently, she was fighting the first phase of Bai Yi Xiu Shi, it was close call.
She had almost won twice.
Then, she suddenly saw two barrages in her livestream.
They were the kind with special effects.
In this world’s livestreams, some streamers with special identity verification would get some special effects.
Their barrages would be either colored or with animations.
They were very eye-catching.
However, this kind of barrage with special effects could only be had by streamers with special verification.
And this special verification was not based on the number of fans.
It was based on the streamer’s level of professionalism in real life.
Zhan Lao herself had barrage special effects, that was because Zhan Lao was a bona fide professional chess player in real life.
So, when she saw those two colored barrages.
Zhan Lao immediately understood, a big shot had come to the livestream.
“Holy crap, it’s Professor Liu.”
“Zhan Lao’s connections are really big, not only is she buddies with the chess sage, but she also knows a music master?”
“To see Professor Liu while playing games, that’s incredible.”
“Professor Liu? The master who did the national style soundtrack for documentaries? He’s a big shot.”
“Wait, what did Professor Liu say just now?”
“Follow the rhythm of the background music?”
“Matching the battle rhythm with the music rhythm?”
“This game can actually be played like that?”
…
Zhan Lao’s livestream also had many fans of Professor Liu.
They immediately recognized him.
But what shocked the fans even more was Professor Liu’s suggestion.
Could it be that the background music of this game was already integrated with the game content to this extent?
At this time, Professor Liu added another sentence.
“I don’t understand games, but I understand music.”
“Trust me, the rhythm of the background music in this game is very special.”
“It’s completely describing the scene and rhythm of the battle, I feel like I can see it.”
The viewers in the livestream were stunned for a moment.
What did Professor Liu mean by being able to see the music?
Only Zhan Lao, after seeing this barrage, had her eyes light up.
“Synesthesia? No wonder he’s a master.”
“Since the master said so, let’s try it.”
Zhan Lao also calmed down at this moment, carefully listening to the background music in “Black Myth: Wukong.”
Slowly, her hand movements began to follow the rhythm of the music.
A miraculous thing happened.
