my soulful sister

After drinking a few sips of water to calm down, Yu Bolong went downstairs to the restaurant on the 3rd floor of the Red Star Hotel. The Red Star Hotel is considered a 4-star hotel, and there must be something elegant like a piano in the restaurant on the 3rd floor.Just before when Wang Jiayu came into the room to discuss music with Yu Bolong, Wang Jiayu asked him what musical instrument he knew. Yu Bolong hesitated for a long time and answered the word 'piano', but he felt extremely ashamed. He had learned a little about piano when he was young. Now I'm afraid I can't even play a piece of music. As a person who wants to be a singer, he can't even know a musical instrument. This is a shame. A singer who can only sing will never be successful.So taking this opportunity, he wanted to go down and try how much he knew about the piano, and see if he could make up for it.

Taking the elevator to the third floor, Yu Bolong said hello to the staff and sat in front of the grand piano. After observing for a while and recalling it for a while, he felt very at a loss. When I touched it with my hands, it felt very unfamiliar, and I didn't know how to play it. It was beeping, beeping...he tried playing it a few times, and it was completely wrong!There is no melody at all in the vomit hoarse mockery.

Yu Bolong hardly had a music score in his head, so he opened the ready-made music score on the piano. After reading it for a while, he found a more serious problem. He couldn't even understand the music score. There were so many symbols Forgot what it meant.As a singer, he can't read the music score, which is the most fatal flaw. That is to say, when someone writes a song for him, he doesn't know how to sing it with the music, because he can't understand it at all!

I can only sing, but I don’t know anything else. It takes a lot of effort to learn again. It takes at least a month to learn music theory, and at least half a year to learn an instrument.At this time, Yu Bolong felt a kind of remorse of "young people don't work hard, the old man is sad". Why didn't my mother let me learn piano well, and I didn't study music theory well!The piano is something that I have practiced since I was a child, and I also practice singing when I grow up.

Just when Yu Bolong was frowning, Xi Ling appeared by herself, grabbed a lock of Yu Bolong's hair and pulled it vigorously, "Master, I have a way to make you understand music theory and the piano."

Yu Bolong was overjoyed when he heard it, and said in surprise, "You can even do this?"

"Of course, I have many functions, and what the master understands is only a small part." Xi Ling spun in the air and said proudly

"What kind of function is this, how much energy does it need?"

"If you want to learn music theory and be able to play the piano, you need to use knowledge writing, soul engineering, and muscle memory writing. How much energy you consume depends on how much music theory knowledge you need..."

"Wait, what is soul engineering? Do human beings really have a soul?" Yu Bolong interrupted and asked, he could understand knowledge writing and muscle memory writing, but he couldn't understand what soul engineering meant.He is an atheist and does not believe in such a thing as a soul.

Xi Ling explained, "Yes, all brain creatures have souls. Of course, souls are not what you humans mean. Souls are actually the collective brain waves, which are long waves with ultra-short wavelengths. It is produced and gathered in the biological brain. The more complex the brain thinks, the stronger the soul is. The function of the soul is to make knowledge and memory more coherent. If I only write knowledge for the master, but the master has not used it This kind of knowledge, then you don’t have the soul band of that knowledge, that is to say, you only know that knowledge, but you haven’t mastered it, and you can’t use it freely.”

After hearing this, Yu Bolong seemed to understand, "You mean to use the function of soul engineering to help me create a soul?"

Xi Ling nodded, "Master is very smart, that's how it is in simple terms!"

"Then, is that still me? You created the soul." Yu Bolong felt that if he changed his soul, he would not be himself.

"Yes, that's not you. Because the master didn't learn and experience anything. After adding that part of the soul, the master is indeed no longer the current master, but master, are you at this second the same as you at the last second? You It's changing all the time, it's never being who you were when you said 'yourself'"

After a long while, Yu Bolong nodded, "It is philosophical, yes and no, no and yes. There is no absolute yes, and no absolute no. I am no longer who I used to be, but I am still myself, hahahaha"

"Master, how much energy you need depends on how much knowledge you need to write. Do you think all the music theory knowledge of human beings and the basic music theory knowledge of Esmol people are enough?" As for the deep music theory and super advanced music theory of Esmol people The analysis of music theory and attack spirit is not going to be written for Yu Bolong. The former of these two levels of music theory is used for creation and the latter for scientific research.Xi Ling felt that Yu Bolong only needed to understand it, and did not need to create or research.

Yu Bolong asked puzzledly, "I also want to learn the music theory of the Esmolians?"

"Didn't the master say that he wanted to sing the songs of the Esmol people? Then you have to rewrite those classic songs of the Esmol people into human scores, right? Music theory is like a language, and you must be proficient in two kinds of music theories." to translate them into each other"

"It makes sense, let's do as you say." Yu Bolong stretched out his index finger and tapped Xi Ling's small forehead. He was very lucky to have such a smart, witty and considerate sister Ling.

"Okay, the writing of human music theory and soul engineering needs 8 points of energy, the writing of basic music theory and soul engineering of Esmol people needs 54 points of energy, and the writing of piano knowledge, soul engineering and muscle memory needs 16 points of energy , In addition, the generation of muscle memory for playing the piano needs to be calculated by turning on the supercomputing mode for 1 minute, so a total of 79 points of biological energy are needed, are you sure?"

"Indeed, sure." Yu Bolong actually wanted to ask why the basic music theory of the Esmolians requires so much energy, but after thinking about it, it's okay. After all, they are so many years ahead of humans, and even some basic concepts are more advanced than humans. Perfect many times over.However, the total amount of energy needed is really enough. Originally, Yu Bolong earned some energy from Aixinjue Luo Yiyi and Wang Jiayu, and now he has 180 points of energy. After consuming the 79 points, he only has 101 points, which will not be enough soon. Hundreds.

However, 79 points of energy can help him realize his dream, which is definitely worth it.
