Someone called me? An Chen's brows furrowed, she did hear a voice, but this voice was not felt from her ears. I only felt that a voice suddenly appeared in my consciousness, but I didn't feel any hearing. This made Anchen feel as if he was having auditory hallucinations.

The sound of the intermittent tide was still heard in my ears, as if it had never been heard in the silent night. Anchen turned his head a little uncertainly, only to see a young girl standing on the deck below the cabin, looking up at him.

The long blue hair hung down behind her, she was holding a guqin in her hand, her eyes seemed to be very flat, but when she saw An Chen's gaze, a trace of panic flashed.

"Are you calling me?" An Chen looked at the girl suspiciously, the voice just now still made her feel weird.

The girl looked at An Chen's eyes flickering, as if she was escaping but expecting something: Yes, I, I want to learn that tune.

Anchen was a little distracted and surprised to hear the girl's voice, she didn't see her speak, but she could hear her voice very clearly. It's like the transmission of consciousness, there is no sound, it appears directly.

I can't speak. Seeing the other party's surprise, the girl said with some inferiority, but quickly added nervously: But we can communicate like this, can I please teach me?

An Chen was stunned for a while, quickly came back to his senses, looked at the girl's eyes that began to be a little lost, and said with a smile: "Of course it doesn't matter, is this your piano?" We can use this. ”

Will you play it? The girl was still happy for Anchen's consent, and asked worriedly when she heard Anchen's next sentence. This ancient style of the long lyre, because of the difficulty of use and the monotony of the tone, few people will learn.

"Your voice is truly amazing." An Chen walked out of the cabin and said sincerely, and then looked at the long qin in the girl's hand: "I'm only a little bit good at this." Then, in the girl's surprised eyes, she gently plucked the strings, making a pleasant and crisp sound.

"Sa." An Chen shrugged her shoulders, the glimmer reflected her cheeks, and the smile on her face made the girl remember it for a long time. "I'll teach you. ”

I don't know when, it should be the moment when the sun rises and illuminates the sea. The beautiful sound echoed through the boat, echoing into the distance with the direction of the ship, with the long wake of the trailing waves.

Perhaps, only those who have never had a sound can truly cherish those sketched movements.

Time at sea always flies, and after a few weeks, the ship docks, and Sana and Anchen say goodbye to their docks in Noxus. Oh, Sana is that girl, and Anchen only learned her name later. She is a luthier who came out to play on the mainland with her adoptive mother. Listening to her, she still has a lot of places to go.

Unbeknownst to Anchen, a few months later, in one of Freljord's royal palaces, Sana played the piece for a tribal queen. The sound of the piano was as beautiful as ever, but I don't know why the queen didn't give out her admiration, but just sat quietly, looking out of the palace, as if thinking about something. After a long time, the queen asked in a choked voice.

"Who taught you this tune?"

Sana was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "A traveler with long black hair, she is a good person, and she has a very charming smile. ”

"Yes, indeed." The queen remembered something, a smile appeared on her indifferent face, and nodded: "Where is he now?" ”

"I met her at the docks in Ionia. She said that she was going to the Shurima Desert, did His Majesty know her? ”

The queen looked at the snow outside the palace dyed golden by the setting sun, and hooked the corners of her mouth: "Yes, he is a traveler with long black hair and a very charming smile." ”

The next day, as she was about to leave, she heard the news of the Queen's disappearance. The queen's uncle seemed to know the reason for the queen's disappearance, and did not send someone to search, but just took out the queen's appointment letter with a depressed face and temporarily took over the government.

"Nok fruit, delicious Nok fruit, as long as three copper coins, Nok fruit."

"A golden carriage to visit Noxus."

The docks of Noxus are not like the docks of a war empire, and the people here live their lives in busyness and enjoyment, just like every person in a peaceful country.

The roadside vendors were hawking, and from time to time you could see a few children running past the roadside playing with each other, and everything was still familiar to Anchen.

"Squeak, squeak." Ahri followed at Anchen's feet, curiously surveying the surroundings of the unfamiliar, the buildings and streets of Noxus were very different from those of Ionia. Almost every city on Valoran is different, and even gives people a sense of the gap between the times, just like the rune steam carts on the streets of Leather City, which rarely appear in other cities, where people are more accustomed to horse-drawn carriages.

Anchen was accustomed to switching scenes like this, walking leisurely on the street, searching for the carriages on the streets, and wondering if any carriages would be willing to go to the ghost place in the Shurima Desert.

"Ed, are you sure we're heading in the right direction?" Yasuo asked uncomfortably as he followed behind An Chen, holding his long sword in his hand, his injuries were almost healed, at least they would not affect his usual activities.

"I can't help it." An Chen spread his hands and said that he was helpless: "The west of Ionia, this news is too broad, it is not good to say, the whole continent is in the west of Ionia. We'll have to narrow it down as much as we can. ”

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers and said, "Na, you said that the senior left the division for a woman, so he must have gone to live with this woman." ”

"Yes, it should be." Yasuo didn't know how to refute Anchen's straightforward remarks, so he could only nod.

"There are three places that Ionia can reach by boat, Zaun, Noxus, and Pierwaterf." Saying that, An Chen continued: "Zu'an is definitely impossible, that place is not suitable for normal people at all. Pierwaterff is not bad, the law and order is good, but it is the capital of wealth and technology, and the prices are all floating in the sky, unless that predecessor of yours is a hidden rich man, otherwise he will not choose to live in such a place. Then there is only Noxus, although there was a war in Noxus at that time, it would not be as radical as it is now, and the quality of life of people was generally good. ”

The corners of Yasuo's mouth twitched, as if it made sense······

"And then there's the way Noxus will go." Anchen continued: "First of all, the Boulder Peak, where outsiders will not be allowed to enter at will, so that road will not be passed. And then there's Icacia, which, you know, is the Forgotten Lands. Then there is only one way, from Noxus to the Plains of Stormwind, and then near the Shurima Desert. So I think that as long as we follow this road and check the news in the black market in several cities on the way, there will always be some results. ”
