Chapter 158: The Flute
After watching it for a long time, we didn't find anything wrong. And there was nothing abnormal after the white mandarin duck, and this matter passed like this.
We had a brief bite to eat that night, and then everyone went to rest.
Since we live in the wilderness, I took turns keeping vigil with a few men from Hisashi. The sound of insects around me at night came to my ears, and listening to these insects to fall asleep was really a special feeling. I leaned against the trunk of the tree and fell asleep listening to the sound of insects.
Just as I was sleeping soundly, I suddenly felt that someone was filming me. When I opened my eyes, I saw that Huayue was waiting for bloodshot eyes to look at me.
Hua Yue's face really jumped me down, and then I saw Hua Yue and said, "Big brother, I can't bear it, you can hurry up and take care of me for a while." ”
I smiled and nodded, and Huayue turned around and lay down next to me and fell asleep.
I got up and stretched, then looked at the moon in the sky. I realized that it was already the middle of the night, and it would be dawn in a few hours.
I walked slowly to the fire, and I threw all the remaining dry wood into the fire. When the dry wood is thrown into the fire, it begins to burn.
As the minutes passed, the dry wood in the fire was almost burned. I glanced at the sleeping men, then got up and walked off into the distance, intending to find some dry wood to fill the fire.
As I was picking up the dry wood and walking back, a melodious flute suddenly came into my ears.
At first, I was curious, how could there be a flute in the middle of the night, and it was in the wilderness? But after a while, I couldn't help but be fascinated by the sound of the flute.
The sound of this flute sounds very wonderful, and when you listen carefully, there is a feeling of longing. Before I knew it, I put the dry wood on the ground, and then I sat down and closed my eyes to listen to the somewhat sad sound of the flute.
After a long time, the sound of the flute gradually disappeared. Everything around me was back to normal again, and I looked up at the moon in the sky. I had a strong curiosity about the flute.
Looking at the moonlight, I shook my head and smiled bitterly.
I thought to myself, who plays the flute, and what does it have to do with me? It's a great blessing to hear such a beautiful flute.
With this in mind, I walked slowly in the direction of the fire. When I returned, I found several people still asleep.
I saw them shake their heads, sorry for them missing such a wonderful flute.
Just as I was about to add firewood to the fire that was about to be extinguished, Qing Yao's voice suddenly came: "This flute is really beautiful, what do you think?" ”
I filled the firewood and turned around and smiled: "Hehe, you're awake." ”
Qing Yao nodded, then got up and sat down beside me.
Qing Yao looked at me and asked, "Do you have anyone you like?" ”
"Someone you like? It doesn't seem to be yet, I spend all day reading books, just practicing Taoism, where do I have time to think about those things. ”
"But I have." Qing Yao slowly looked at the sky and said.
"Who?" I looked at Qing Yao and asked.
"Anyway, I actually looked for him for a long time to find him. But he has forgotten me, and he can't be blamed for that, there are some things that he can't control. However, I will stay with him until he dies of old age, and then I will wait for his next life. After speaking, Qing Yao looked at me and smiled.
"And who is he?" Intrigued, I asked again.
Qing Yao glanced at me and said, "You elm head, you just don't tell you." ”
To be honest, I don't know who Qing Yao is talking about. But when I listened to Qing Yao, I actually had a strange feeling in my heart. I don't know what it's like, I haven't felt it like this since I can remember, it seems a little sad.
"By the way, did you see who played the flute just now?" Qing Yao suddenly looked at me and asked.
Only then did I remember how I had forgotten about this, and then scratched my head a little embarrassedly and said, "I forgot about it, and I listened to the flute when I was patronizing." ”
"Forget it, since I didn't find it, I didn't find it. Whether it's a human or a ghost, it's good if it doesn't harm us. Qing Yao spread her hands and said.
Later, Qing Yao and I chatted for a while. As the sky began to get brighter, I got up and stretched out and shouted to everyone.
After that, we were ready to continue on our way, and when it was close to noon, we were ready to find a place to rest.
But at that moment, the sound of the flute suddenly sounded again not far away, but it didn't sound like it was the one I had heard before.
Qing Yao and I glanced at each other, and I hurriedly got up and said, "Go over and have a look." ”
After saying that, I walked in the direction of the flute, and Hisashi got up and followed us with a complaining face.
As we crossed a hill, I saw a flock of sheep not far away, and a child was sitting playing the flute in his hand.
"It's just a kid for a long time, I thought it was a beauty." Hisashi sat on the ground and said.
Hua Feng glanced at me and said, "Having children proves that there are people in the vicinity, we have been living in the wild for so many days, wouldn't it be better for me to rest for a day." ”
After hearing this, I think it is the same, and the white mandarin duck does not look very good at this time. I let her recuperate, and then I walked towards the child.
When I came to the child, the child put down the flute in his hand, and the sound of the flute disappeared instantly.
"Are there any villages or homes around here?" Huayue asked, looking at the child.
The boy looked at us and said, "Yes, just go over two hills to the south." But I advise you not to go, for I don't care if you lose your life. ”
When I heard this, the boy had something to say, and then I looked at the child and asked, "What do you mean by that?" Could it be that there are man-eating monsters in the village? ”
The child looked at me and said, "I have said everything that needs to be said, and I can't control if you insist on sending you to death." ”
Then the child got up and walked towards the flock, and then drove the flock to one side.
Looking at the back of the child leaving, I think this matter must not be so simple, there must be something else in it.
"Let's go, I'm going to see what's in this village." As I spoke, I walked towards the hill to the south.
The wind and the others glanced at the child again, and then followed me towards the south.
As the boy watched us walk south, he shook his head helplessly and said, "Another group of people who are sending us to death." ”
