Chapter 79: The sound of the piano lingers
After leaving the Yuxu Palace, Dongfang Shuo took Ji Henghu straight back to his courtyard.
Pushing open the door, his eyes swept over the long-lost courtyard.
It was the first time he had returned to the courtyard since he had regained his memory, and looking at everything in the courtyard at the moment suddenly made his heart feel like he had not felt for a long time.
"Finally back. β
He couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
Then he went into the courtyard.
There are three rooms in the courtyard, one of which is a study, the second is a bedroom, and the third is ......
Dongfang Shuo's eyes fell on the third room with closed doors and windows, and he couldn't help but purse his lips.
The last time he returned, he had no memory and no idea what was in that room. Now, his memory has returned, and he naturally knows very well what was in that room.
And looking at the eyes of that room, I unconsciously seemed a little soft and sad.
Left, walked to the door of the house.
Gently push the door open, and a leisurely aroma comes from inside the house. The light shines into the house through the crack in the door for a long time, but people can't see a trace of dust, because in this room, Dongfang Shuo has specially set up a cleaning formation, which can keep the house fresh and clean at all times.
When the door of the house opened, everything in the house was revealed in front of Dongfang Shuo's eyes.
This room is no smaller than the study and bedroom, but there is no furnishings in it, and it looks empty.
In the middle of the room, there was a low table with a guqin on it.
Other than that, there is nothing else.
Looking at the qin, Dongfang Shuo's face couldn't help but show a smile, as if he had seen a long-lost relative.
He set out and opened all the windows in the room, letting the sunlight into the room.
And he himself, with the crisp birdsong outside the window, sat behind the guqin.
Reaching out and gently pressing on the strings, combing them from beginning to end, and finally when he took his hand away, his eyes fell on the word 'Xi' engraved on the end of the guqin.
He knew it was his mother's name, and his mother's name was 'Qingxi'.
But no one ever told him what his mother's surname was, and when he was very young, he asked his father, but his father didn't want to say more. Since then, he has never mentioned his mother in front of anyone, but he has always kept the instrument.
This is his mother's piano.
He knew that this was his mother's favorite thing when she was alive.
"Hoo ......"
After being silent for a long time, Dongfang Shuo finally exhaled, and finally raised his hands and pressed them on the strings.
In my mind, a melody arises spontaneously.
Recalling that there was no sound of the piano, Dongfang Shuo's hand also began to swim among the strings.
After a few months, the guqin finally made a sound again.
The sound of the piano is graceful, and no matter how pure the natural sounds such as birdsong outside the window are, it seems like a murmur in this sound. Every tone seemed very smooth in Dongfang Shuo's hands, and his mood at the moment gradually entered the better state with the sound of the piano.
At this moment, Dongfang Shuo seemed to have forgotten all his troubles, put everything out of his mind, and only the sound of the piano was left in his heart, and his fingers as a man gradually became as delicate and flexible as a woman at this moment.
And with the playing of the tune, the birdsong that came from time to time outside the window gradually disappeared, and even unconsciously, the 'noise' of the entire Yuxu Peak seemed to have stopped for this sound, and the empty and lonely Yuxu Peak gradually only left the sound of the piano coming from the courtyard of Dongfang Shuo.
At this time, at the top of the Jade Void Peak, Du Qingxue walked out of the hall for some reason.
The sound of the piano couldn't be heard at all, but she seemed to be able to hear the sound, her eyes inexplicably revealed a little sadness, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, but there was only a sad wry smile.
Finally, after a certain paragraph, the piano notes are hastily concluded.
The murmur within the four fields reappeared.
When Dongfang Shuo looked up, he found that Dongfang Youling and Su Zhi's two daughters had already come to the door.
"Brother Dongfang, why don't you continue, did we disturb you?"
Su Zhi saw that the sound of the piano stopped, and Dongfang Shuo looked up at them, so he asked with a little apology.
Dongfang Shuo shook his head and got up slowly: "It's not because of you, it's just that I haven't mastered the second half of this sheet yet, and I'm quite rusty." Today it's just a whim to touch the piano, so don't play it. β
"It turns out that Dongfang Shuo was only good at it on the first day, and there are things that he is not good at?" Su Zhi breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and then smiled again.
Dongfang Shuo smiled bitterly: "If I know everything, wouldn't I be omniscient and omnipotent?"
At this time, Dongfang Youling knelt down in front of the window and said, "Even if my brother is not omniscient, he is also the best man in the world." β
"Meow meow. β
At this moment, Ji Henghu, who was staying in the courtyard, shouted twice, as if to express his approval.
After all, this is his Ji Heng Tiger's master, if it is not excellent, then wouldn't it be very faceless?
"Speaking of Dongfang Big Brother, is this big cat yours?" Following the prestige, Su Zhi suddenly asked.
At this time, Dongfang Shuo walked to the courtyard.
"Yes. He said.
Ji Henghu was lying in the courtyard, looking lazy, his eyes were half-open and drowsy, and the two dull hairs on his head hung down at will like ripe ears of wheat, fluttering in the wind.
As one of the nine sons of the dragon, Ji Henghu at this moment can be said to have no majesty at all.
Isn't this a fat cat?!
Looking at its appearance, Dongfang Shuo felt a little incredible when he remembered the scene where it bit Han Tongyang.
Just as Dongfang Shuo was thinking, the second daughter had already walked to Ji Henghu's side without saying anything, Dongfang Youling reached out to stroke the soft fluff, and Su Zhi wanted to grab the two silly hairs fluttering in the wind.
When Dongfang Shuo saw this, he was immediately shocked.
"Be careful, it will bite ......"
But as soon as he was halfway through the conversation, he saw that the second daughter had succeeded, and instead of resisting, Ji Henghu seemed to be enjoying the situation of being surrounded by beautiful girls.
Not only that, but it also seemed to be very happy to turn over on the spot, with its feet facing the sky and letting the two women and four hands go down together, and it was naΓ―ve for a while, even like an ordinary domestic cat.
Seeing such a scene, Dongfang Shuo inexplicably supported his forehead.
This stupid tiger ...... It's just a shame...... Obviously one of the nine sons of the dragon......
"Ahem. β
After a while, Dongfang Shuo coughed lightly.
Ji Henghu subconsciously looked at Dongfang Shuo, only to find that Dongfang Shuo's eyes had become less kind, which made Ji Henghu, who was still unsatisfied and rolling all over the ground, startled, and suddenly turned over and took a few steps back, and his naΓ―ve face was even more restrained.
Seeing Ji Henghu retreating, the second daughter got up suspiciously and looked at Dongfang Shuo.
"Brother Dongfang, you're too fierce like this, look at it's scary. β
"Yes, brother, it's not good to abuse small animals. β
Suddenly, the second daughter puffed up her cheeks and criticized Dongfang Shuo for a while.
And Dongfang Shuo was also helpless for a while, if Ji Henghu was left here, I am afraid that it would make these two guys lose their minds and have no intention of cultivating......
Speaking of which, Ji Henghu is cute because he is fat, right? Isn't it time to lose weight?
He looked in the direction of the fat cat, and suddenly thought for a moment.
Ji Henghu shuddered suddenly, and always felt as if his good days were over.
"Speaking of which, have you two been cultivating hard in the days that I am away?" Dongfang Shuo suddenly asked.
This question immediately made the second daughter, who was feigned anger at Dongfang Shuo, immediately look away.
"Yes......"
Su Zhi's voice looked a little empty.
And Dongfang Shuo was stunned.
Didn't practice well?
"Yes, yes, we have a good cultivation ......" Dongfang Young Ling was even more weak-hearted.
It's just that you haven't cultivated well, right?
Dongfang Shuo looked at the two girls with a questioning expression, and finally sighed.
"You can't relax just because you entered the Heaven Dou Sect, you two. Dongfang Shuo looked a little helpless when he spoke.
Dongfang Youling pursed his lips, raised his jade hand and pointed to the direction of the Jade Void Peak a little timidly, and said, "Actually...... It's because of Master. β
"Hmm, Master?" Dongfang Shuo was stunned for a moment, then looked at Su Zhi and asked, "Really?"
Unexpectedly, Su Zhi also sighed, put on a helpless look, and said, "Yes, it is that woman who occupies most of our cultivation time." β
"What's going on?" Dongfang Shuo asked.
Su Zhi replied: "Soon after you left, that woman didn't know what was going on, and brought a bunch of martial arts books for the two of us to copy, and the beautiful name was 'Copy the book a hundred times, and its meaning will be seen by itself'." But Brother Dongfang, you should also know, how can martial arts be so easy to comprehend, and it is not martial arts that can be copied once. β
At this time, Dongfang Youling also muttered, "Yes." Besides, even if you copy one copy, Master brought more than 10,000 volumes of martial arts, and none of them were even repeated. After copying it for so many days," she pointed at Su Zhi, "she memorized it all, and I haven't even remembered a complete sentence, brother." β
With that, the two daughters sighed at the same time.
Dongfang Shuo raised his eyebrows, and looked down at the ring in his hand again.
Copying martial arts?
More than 10,000 volumes??
So in other words, all the martial arts that Du Qingxue gave him just now were all copied by Dongfang Youling and Su Zhi?
For a while, Dongfang Shuo was also ridiculous.
"That old lady, I ......" he cursed in his heart, but a thousand words finally turned into a sigh.
After sighing, he looked at the second daughter and said, "The day of Tiandou hunting is getting closer and closer, since you have wasted a month, then the remaining month must be hurried." β
"Hmm, Brother Dongfang, I've heard the disciples of the other peaks talk about the 'Heaven Dou Hunting' these days, is this 'Heaven Dou Hunting' that important?" Su Zhi wondered.
And Dongfang Youling was also at a loss.
"Didn't Master tell you?" Dongfang Shuo frowned.
"We asked, but Master said, 'The Heaven Dou Hunt is just a ranked battle that determines the order of the young and the old, and it will definitely be possible with the cultivation of the two of you, just deal with it at will.'" Dongfang Youling spoke, and even the tone of his speech was quite charming.
Dongfang Shuo supports the forehead.
These are really the words that the woman spoke......
"Listen up. Dongfang Shuo said solemnly, "The Tiandou Hunt is not only related to whose senior sister you are in the future, and whose junior sister you are in the future, but also related to the supply of the sect that you can get in the next ten years, especially the Cleansing Pill, those who are excellent can get ten, and those who fail can only have one." β
"The sect supplies ten marrow cleansing pills?" the two daughters were all shocked.
Such an important matter was actually taken by Du Qingxue's words? !
Seeing the expressions of the two, Dongfang Shuo was even more helpless.
"Well, from today onwards, let me guide you to cultivate. Dongfang Shuo said.
The second daughter was stunned: "Is it okay?"
"There's a hunt waiting for me anyway, so I'll just prepare. Dongfang Shuo said.
It is true that the disciples of the previous class will also have a Heaven Dou Hunt in a month, but it will be held on the day after the disciples of this class, and the ranking results will not affect the order of the elders and young, but will only determine the supply that can be obtained in the next ten years.
The supply is nothing more than cultivation resources such as pills and spirit crystals, which are very important to other disciples, but for Dongfang Shuo today, it is undoubtedly a trivial thing.
He had to participate, but only symbolically.
The first or something, whoever loves it should go.
