"Uncle, do you want to give me this pendant?"

I asked patiently.

He still didn't answer, there was still a faint smile on his face, his eyes never left me for a moment, and his eyes made me feel inexplicably kind.

Can he hear me? Or did you acquiesce to what we just asked?

Afraid of misunderstanding, I still wanted to return the pendant to the old man, but he blindly refused, and didn't want it.

Are you really going to give it to me?

Seeing that the old man was so persistent, I couldn't force it anymore, so I had to accept it for the time being, planning to wait for the master to come back and ask him if he knew such an old man.

As soon as I came back to my senses, the old man actually pressed my shoulder and pushed me down the mountain.

Does he mean that he wants me to go down the mountain? But he's so old, I'll leave him here alone, will it really be okay?

I was still hesitating, but the old man pushed me down several steps.

I was helpless, so I could only say: "Uncle, the road is slippery in the cold, you must be careful of your step!" ”

He still pushed me down, and I could only continue to descend the mountain according to his wishes, but I couldn't help but think in my heart: What a strange old man!

Walking all the way down the mountain, stepping on the snow particles to make a rustling sound, and the sound of the wind sounded in my ears from time to time, as if whispering.

My hands are a little cold, if only Nian Kong was there, he will definitely cover my hands warm.

I hope that when he comes back, the snow on Lingxiu Mountain has not melted, because he and I have not seen the snow scene of Lingxiu Mountain together.

Just when my heart was bitter and sweet, suddenly there was a sound of the piano wafting from a distance. I couldn't help but stop and listen, and in a moment I recognized the piece and heard that the person playing the piano was Master.

It seems that the master is still in the mountains, so the old man should not run in vain.

I continued to listen to the tune.

This was the first complete piece that Master taught me, and Master said that it did not have a name.

The beginning of this song is a little sad and gloomy, just like this cold winter.

Gradually, the piece moves into the second part, and the tempo becomes faster and faster, like a rushing water.

As expected, I saw the silver and white of the mountains gradually melting, and the murmuring sound was endless.

It's the spirit rhino technique, and the master is using the sound of the piano to perform the spirit rhino technique.

It turns out that this is the highest level of spiritual rhinoceros:

Not only living beings, but even lifeless snow can be used for the spirit rhinoceros.

Or is it that snowflakes are alive too?

I didn't understand why Master suddenly performed the Spirit Rhino Technique, and I couldn't hear where the reverberating sound of the piano came from, so I just admired the wonder of the scene under Master's fingers.

Soon, the snow and ice were gone. But the sound continued, and the tune was as cheerful as I remembered.

The silver and white of the mountains were replaced by decaying yellow, but soon they were dyed inch by inch with tender colors, decorated with plum white, peach, and cherry pink. A splendid spring flower crashed into my eyes so suddenly.

My heart softened suddenly, and I lost my mind at the sight before me.

Spring flowers bloom one by one, only blooming undefeated. The melodious sound of the piano seems to be mixed with human voices, whispering low, not very clear, listening to the ears like a lover's whisper.

The flowers were still in full bloom, but the trees were green and receding, dressed in gold, and after a while they burned red again.

I suddenly remembered that when I first came back, I saw the autumn leaves all over the mountain, and I was shocked at the time.

At the time, I thought it was unbelievable enough, but I didn't think it was just the beginning.

Watching the most beautiful scenery of the four seasons unfold together, I somehow felt a bitterness welling up in my heart.

This feeling is different from any of my previous state of mind, and it feels familiar when I taste it carefully, but I don't know the source.

When I came back to my senses, I found that I was in tears.

I was still wondering about my inexplicable emotion, the music had ended, but the aftersound lingered for a long time.

Halfway up the mountain in the distance, a few bright lights suddenly appeared. At the same time, the vitality of the mountains and fields was instantly scattered and fell silent.

I stared intently at those few bright lights, three gold and seven silver, like fireworks.

The golden color is like a flower, surrounded by silver splendor in it.

Suddenly, all the pillars of light climbed to the top, and then scattered in all directions, dazzling.

Somehow, his heart suddenly cramped without warning, but at the same time, he saw that one of the falling pillars of light was one gold and one silver falling in the direction where Niankong was.

Niankong! Could it be that something happened to Niankong?!

My heart almost stopped, and the next moment, I didn't want to rush back......

When I returned to the stone room and saw that Niankong was still sleeping peacefully, I was relieved and walked over slowly.

"Niankong, you know? You just scared me. ”

I smiled self-deprecatingly.

"If you don't come back, I'm going to be nervous."

As I spoke, I habitually shook his hand.

My eyes widened in disbelief at the touch of his skin.

There is temperature! Niankong's hands have warmth!

I grabbed his wrist pulse, and my vision blurred for a moment when I felt the weakness of the beat.

I leaned down and carefully hugged him, listening to his heartbeat.

It's true! My Niankong is back!

"Thank you Niankong, thank you for not making me wait that long......"

******

The person sent by Liuyun to pick me up saw that I didn't show up for a long time, worried that something would happen, but he couldn't go up the mountain, so he could only return to Liuyun. Liuyun couldn't do it, so he went up the mountain in person.

Knowing the situation, Liuyun also seemed to be relieved.

"Liuyun, you look for Master in the mountains for me, I just heard Master stroked the qin, and I shouldn't have gone far.

Although Niankong has regained his breathing and heartbeat, there is no sign of waking up, and I want to ask Master to take a second look at Niankong's condition while he is still gone. ”

"Yes."

Half an hour later, Liuyun went and returned, but he didn't find the master, and only brought back two things.

The minister only found the master's qin and the gray robe, but found no trace of the master. I'm afraid it's gone. ”

I'm a little disappointed, but fortunately, Niankong is fine.

His gaze inadvertently fell on the two things that Liuyun had brought back. The piano was indeed Master's, but the gray robe was ......

Master has always only worn white robes, where did this gray robe come from?

I suddenly remembered the old man I met on the way down the mountain before, and he seemed to be wearing this robe.

It seems that the old man has already found the master, and he is probably going to travel with the master and come here to meet the master.

"Your Highness, Xiao Jifeng has been asking to see you." Liuyun's words pulled my thoughts back.

I looked at Niankong and said without thinking: "Don't go, Niankong will wake up at any time." I don't want him to be there when he wakes up. ”

Xiao Jifeng said that he knew some things, and only he knew these things, and said that you would definitely want to hear them. If you don't go, you'll regret it later. And...... Master related. ”

"Master?"

"Yes."

I thought about it for a while, but I still didn't know how he Xiao Jifeng was going to die, and how else could he play tricks.

But Xiao Jifeng has hurt the people around me one after another for so many years, and if his so-called secret is related to Master, I can't ignore it.

I glanced at Niankong again and reluctantly got up.

"I'll take a look, you can help me take care of Niankong here."

"Yes."
