Chapter Seventy-One: The Sound of Willows by the Lake

Seeing Yang Muyun's puzzled appearance, she smiled, took off a slender willow leaf and put it on her petal-like lips.

Yang Muyun was stunned, he didn't expect that blowing Konoha could be so beautiful. An ordinary willow leaf turned into a wonderful musical instrument in Juni's mouth.

"Well, you can blow it too." Jenny picked a willow leaf and handed it to Yang Muyun.

"I, I won't." Yang Muyun scratched his head, no, no, no.

"It's very simple, put it to your mouth and blow it and it will sound." Sunny's big beautiful eyes flashed and encouraged him.

"Really?" Yang Muyun took it with apprehension, put it on his lips and puffed out his cheeks, "Whew-" It was like spraying rice, the tone was not blown, but the leaves were blown out.

"Ka'erβ€”" Jenny smiled, smiling cutely, her beautiful eyes narrowed into a crooked crescent moon.

"I said I wouldn't, you made a fool of me." Yang Muyun's face was elongated.

"I'm letting you blow, not spray." Jenny handed him another willow leaf and said softly, "Come, gently put it to your lips, gently hold it against the tip of your tongue, and blow slowly firstβ€”β€”, that's it." ”

Yang Muyun tried a few times, and finally blew it, but the tone of the blowing was trembling, like a cat's meow.

Looking at Yan Ni's smiling expression, Yang Muyun was a little frustrated: "Am I too stupid?" ”

"No, it's already good to blow it like this so quickly." Jenny pursed her lips.

Yang Muyun looked at her, how did she look at it, how did she feel that it was not a compliment to him.

"If you learned, would you blow it to me?" She asked expectantly.

"I blow like this, do you dare to blow it to others except you?" Yang Muyun said angrily.

Yan Ni stared at him for a long time, the corners of her mouth slowly hooked, picked a willow leaf and put it to her lips, a soft and tactful music leisurely swayed on the sparkling lake, the tone was new and elegant, like swimming in the water, like a milk warbler returning to the nest, sounding pleasant and clear.

"Hee, β€”β€”, alpine leaves are piled up, but it's a pity that Brother can't blow it, when the leaves are blown, only the leaves are not used." Jenny threw the willow leaves to the surface of the lake and sang the Miao family's mountain song.

The singing was sung in the Miao dialect, and Yang Muyun only felt that the singing was beautiful and beautiful, but he didn't understand the meaning.

"You sing so well, can you tell me what you mean?" Yang Muyun asked innocently.

"I'll tell you about it when you're as good as I do." A shallow smile hung on the corner of her mouth.

"Why are you still here, Miss Cinny? Do you still hope that Ling Yihan will go back with you? Yang Muyun was a little timid in his heart for Yini's smile, and hurriedly changed the topic.

The smile on her face vanished, and a sharp look flashed in her eyes.

"I promised my sister that I would take him back." Jenny's eyes narrowed.

"What if he doesn't agree?"

"He will definitely agree, if a person dies, nothing can be left to him." There was a chill in Jenny's soft voice.

Yang Muyun felt a chill down her spine, "Your sister is so weird, why do you have to be obsessed with a man who is not worthy of love, can't she forget him?" ”

"Because, he stole my sister's heart," Yan Ni's beautiful eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of fog, "Once the heart of our Miao family woman is given to a man, it will never be taken back." Because we will only love one man in our lives. ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Yang Muyun returned to the inn, and the quarrel had subsided. He came to his room, fell on the bed with his body crooked, his arms pillowed behind his head, and chewed on the words of the little Miao girl: "These Miao Jiang women are really weird, no matter what kind of person the other party is, they must love each other to the end, and there is no room for repentance." If the other party does not comply, he will curse the person to death. It's ridiculous, how can a good person die with a few curses? He shook his head, yawned, turned to one side, his eyelids drooped, and fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, Yang Muyun was asleep when he was suddenly awakened by a terrible scream. He got up from the bed and listened carefully, the cry was next door, and the sound seemed to be that Ling Yihan. "What's wrong with this person? Could it be that he was driven crazy by his mother-in-law? Hearing the screams more and more heartbreaking, Yang Muyun couldn't help it, jumped up and pushed the door open and rushed out.

The door next door opened, and he walked straight inside. The room was already full of people, and the innkeeper, the man, the old man and the young man who had been rescued by himself, were also in the room. The clothes on Ling Yihan's body had been torn into pieces, and his body was covered with blood, and he kept scratching, shouting in his mouth: "It's so itchy, it's so itchy, it's itching to death." Where the fingers scratched, there was blood.

"What kind of medicine did you put in your meal? Let him be like this. The young woman who was in the same room with Ling Yihan asked the innkeeper with a blushing face.

"Little lady, don't wronged people, these other guests have also eaten the food of the small shop, aren't they all standing here?" The shopkeeper screamed and slammed into the sky.

"It's hot, it's hot, don't set me on fire, ah-" Ling Yihan rolled and struggled on the ground and screamed loudly.

"Xianggong, how did you become like this?" The young woman turned around in a panic, looking at Ling Yihan's miserable appearance, and there was no master for a while.

"This boy can't be evil, right? Little Si'er, go and call the Huang Banxian in the town to come over and have a look. The shopkeeper instructed a fellow behind him.

The guy agreed, and was about to turn around and go out. At this time, a deep and slightly shrill voice said: "No need to go, he has been tricked." Everyone saw that it was the old man with a red face who spoke.

"Old man, you said he was tricked?" The young woman's voice was a little excited, "Do you have a way to save my husband?" ”

The old man didn't answer, and stepped forward to ask Ling Yihan, who was screaming on the ground: "Have you ever met someone who is good at Gu magic?" ”

"How do I know? What Gu technique? Ling Yihan's handsome face was now very terrifying due to the distortion of muscles, "By the way, it must be her, that little slut in Miao Jiang, she drank me a bowl of acacia tea, saying that if I don't go back to her, I will be devoured by all kinds of Gu and die of madness." Ahβ€”β€”, my heart hurts! He covered his chest and rolled on the ground.

The old man's face was solemn, and he sighed: "It seems that he is the most powerful Gu - Love Gu." ”

"Love Gu, what is that?" The young woman asked.

"Miaojiang women are good at raising poisonous insects, they will use special utensils, put the menstrual blood of girls in it, and then put some poisonous insects in, and finally cover the lid. After 7749, the last one left is the Love Gu, and then they will grind the Love Gu into powder together with the Love Flower, Quxian Grass and other things, and let the beloved take it. ”

"Can you save him, old man?" The young woman asked mournfully.

The old man shook his head, "The Gu poison in this son's body can only be saved by the Gu practitioner himself, otherwise ......" suddenly shook his head and was silent.

"Sister Wan, I'm so cold, please save me, I'm about to freeze to death......" Ling Yihan shivered all over, his lips cracked, and he pulled the young woman to plead for help.

"Xianggong-" Seeing that his life was worse than death, the young woman's face was pale, and she didn't know what to do.

"Ling Gongzi, you come with me." Yang Muyun stepped forward and pulled him up, and said to the young woman: "I'll take him to a place, you don't come with him, maybe you can save him." ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Yang Muyun pulled Ling Yihan to the willow tree by the lake outside the town, under the moonlight like water, the willow was still shining, but the trace of Miss Yani was nowhere to be found.

"Miss Yaniβ€”" Yang Muyun shouted a few times, and the voice spread out across the lake, and the willow branches swayed slightly, but there was no response.

"My heart hurts, please save me-" Ling Yihan gasped, his eyes a little dazed.

Yang Muyun was in a hurry, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, he tore off a willow leaf and put it to his lips and blew it, and the high and low tones trembled like ripples and rolled around.

Yang Muyun was blushing and blowing hard, suddenly felt that someone patted his shoulder lightly, he turned around, and Yan Ni stood behind him with a bright smile, the breeze blowing, and the hair and skirt fluttered slightly, like a peony under the light veil.

"Did you miss me?" Yan Ni stroked the hair on her sideburns and smiled sweetly.

"When is it, you're still kidding." Yang Muyun stomped his feet and pulled Ling Yihan over, "Ling Gongzi is very uncomfortable now, I brought him here, you can save him quickly." ”

"Yanni, good Yani......" Ling Yihan howled and threw herself at her feet, a hoho in her throat, "Please save me, I promise you, go back with you and be with Xiandi, and never be separated again." ”

"You're really going to be with my sister and never be separated again." Jenny's eyes narrowed.

"Really, I don't lie to you, now I'll go back to Miaojiang with you, you save me, I can't stand the pain in my heart." Ling Yihan's face was distorted a little hideously.

"Wellβ€”" Jenny pulled a shiny scimitar from her waist with a thud.

"What are you going to do?" Ling Yihan hurriedly stepped back.

"You said you wanted to be with my sister." Grace's beautiful face was covered with frost.

"her..... Could it be ......" Ling Yihan's eyes widened in horror.

"You're such a smart person, wouldn't you think about why it was me who came to you, not my sister." Her eyes sharpened, her hand raised, and her scimitar slashed in a cold arc.

"Don't, I don't want ......to die," Ling Yihan shouted, and the sword light slashed across his chest like lightning, stirring up a rain of blood.

"Save meβ€”" These were the last words Ling Yihan said in this world, and then he fell to the ground like a piece of rotten wood that had been split by lightning, and was silent ever since.

Yan Ni returned the knife into the sheath, silently stepped forward, leaned over to hold Ling Yihan's legs, and lifted it up, suddenly feeling that her strength was empty. She couldn't help but look up in surprise, Yang Muyun came over and helped her lift Ling Yihan's shoulders at some point.

"Thank you......" The sharpness in Jenny's eyes swept away, and a tenderness welled up.

Yang Muyun carried Ling Yihan's body with her to a pile of firewood not far away, and laid the corpse high on it.

Jenny lit a piece of paper and threw it at the firewood stack, "Boom-" The firewood stack should have been sprinkled with black oil, and as soon as it caught the spark, it ignited a skyrocketing fire.

Suni closed her eyes, folded her hands, and her lips moved, wondering what she was praying for?

Seeing that she was doing a prayer ceremony for the deceased, Yang Muyun was inconvenient to be beside her, so he walked away.

After praying for a while, she danced around the fire, and for a moment her skirt fluttered and wore a tinkling of her skirt, and her silver ornaments shone brightly in the light of the fire, making her look like a beautiful elf in the middle of the night.

"Cough ......" A light cough made Yang Muyun turn around suddenly, and the red-faced bearded old man came behind him at some point.

"Mr. Kim?" Seeing him, Yang Muyun couldn't help but show a trace of astonishment.

"Miao Nu is the most infatuated, once she falls in love with someone, she will be entangled to the end without hesitation, and she will ......never die," Jin Ying looked at Xi Ni, who was still dancing by the fire, "Ling Gongzi's death here is also his fate." ”

"Mr. Jin seems to know the Miao people very well, have you ever stayed in a place where the Miao people live?" Yang Muyun asked curiously.

"The old man is a Jiaozhi person, and he grows and lives in a variety of places, so he knows a little about the temperament and habits of these Miao people."

"Cochins? So how did you come to Daming? ”

"How did you come to Daming?" Jin Ying smiled bitterly, and her eyes became deeper, "That was the fifth year of Yongle, before that Jiaozhi was still called Annanguo, because the Li father and son caused the country and chaos in the country, they caused the Ming Dynasty to crusade, and the country was destroyed." The old man came to Daming with the army of the British Gong Zhang Fu that year. At that time, I was only thirteen years old, and I set foot on the land of the Ming Dynasty as a eunuch. ”

Yang Muyun listened silently and did not interject.

"You already know who I am, don't you?" Jin Ying glanced at him, Yang Muyun's face was very flat, without the slightest look of disgust and disdain. "It's been forty years, my body and soul have been deeply integrated into the Ming Dynasty, and if it weren't for Engong asking, I would have forgotten that I was once an Annan person." Jin Ying sighed.

"Why would someone assassinate you?" Yang Muyun asked.

"Above the court, there are treacherous clouds, and there is no shortage of swords and swords in the palace." Jin Ying said leisurely: "The old man has been in the palace for forty years, and he has sat in the position of the right eunuch of the celebrant and the right eunuch, which can be said to have read countless people, so it is impossible for no one to be offended." When the scenery is beautiful, no one dares to do anything to the old man, and now Qi Qiran is walking in the rivers and lakes, even if someone does something to the old man, it is not strange. ”

"And where do you want to go now?"

"A few years ago, the old man offended a big man in the palace, so he was demoted to the southern capital to be a eunuch, and now the emperor sent an edict, and let the old man return to Beijing, the road ahead is boundless, I don't know if it is good or bad?"
