Chapter 1 The Magic Sound Enters the Ears
There was a strange sound in the back room of the antique shop.
Like sawn wood, creaking and crunching; It's like playing cotton, banging......
The little squirrel shivered and hid behind a small clay pot in the Han Dynasty, while Zhao Nan frowned, covered his ears and grinned, staring fiercely at the door of the inner room.
"That's enough, you've been fiddling around all afternoon, do you want to live or not, I'll continue with it...... I ran away in a rage! ”
The sound of the piano was rough a few times, and Ye Quan's sigh came from inside: "Alas, this time, this time, how can a sad word ......" Her voice was mournful and moving, but the last squeak completely shattered the little poetry that had just burst out into nothing.
Zhao Nan slapped his palms and laughed: "Look, just this sentence is still like a look, you, you don't have the life of that qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, don't pretend to be a talented girl here, I said that not a single guest came to the door today, and you were scared away." ”
"I didn't have any guests to come to the door, so I was so idle."
Ye Quan stood up, stared at the guqin on the table, and said hatefully: "I know that you are hiding here, why don't you cooperate with me to play well?" It's too much, and I'm ...... if I do it again Burn you down. ”
Zhao Nan shook his head and sighed: "You still want to make this broken piano into a scorched tail, then you really lift it, but the thing looks like the main shape, and the two of you are also a perfect match." People can't do it, and neither can the piano. ”
Ye Liang opened the door: "You can do it, then you can play!" Zhao Nan was not polite, walked in, pressed a few strings casually, the sound of the piano was melodious, Zhao Nan glanced at Ye Limit triumphantly: "This is not called playing, it is called caressing, do you understand the piano?" ”
"No, I need some artistic edification, guarding these bottles and cans every day, facing those who tell all kinds of joys and sorrows, I can't be literary and artistic at all," Ye Yuan thought about it, saw today's newspaper on the counter, took it and patiently flipped through the advertising page: "I have to see what new movies are there recently, or I'm going to dance?" ”
"It's a talent that can't be envied."
At this time, I heard a jingle outside and a guest came.
Zhao Nan immediately turned into the appearance of a diligent young man, and shouted loudly: "Welcome to the antique store in the cold time." ”
It was a young woman who came in, dressed in a plaid cheongsam, with ear-length hair, carrying a woolen handbag in her hand, with some bright beads sewn on it, and a hairband of the same texture and color as the cheongsam.
The woman was handsome, and when she came in, she saw a tall young man looking at her, she was a little embarrassed, and lowered her head slightly and said, "I'm here to find someone." ”
"You? Get? ”
Zhao Nan was a little surprised. Because this woman looked normal, with rosy lips and dark eyes, and a little shyness, I couldn't believe that something terrible or wrongful could happen to her.
"Yes, I'm looking for someone, but I'm helping someone to find someone," the woman said and found that the more she explained, the more troublesome it became, so she followed up again, "I'm helping someone find Miss Ye." ”
Ye Liang raised his eyebrows: "Help someone find it?" When there is something to ask me for, I always come in person, because the price of looking for me is too great, and no one can replace me. ”
"Are you Miss Ye?"
The woman stepped forward to introduce herself: "My name is Yuan Qianxiao, and I will help my neighbor Granny Yin to find Miss Ye." ”
"I made it clear. You have to come in person, and no one else can replace you. ”
Ye Liang repeated a sentence expressionlessly.
"Granny Yin can't come, she's ...... Passed away. ”
Yuan Qianxiao's voice lowered, Ye Limit and Zhao Nan glanced at each other, and Ye Limit pointed to the inside: "Then come in with me." ”
Yuan Qian smiled and entered the room, and was a little surprised when he saw the piano on the table: "Miss Ye also likes to stroke the piano." ”
"It's just a hobby." Ye Liang said that the clouds are light and the wind is light.
Outside the house, Zhao Nan covered his mouth and almost laughed.
"Why didn't Granny Yin come by herself?"
Ye Liang asked again.
"Huh?" The woman thought that Ye Liang didn't understand her words, so she repeated, "Granny Yin has passed away, and no one is here, how can you come?" ”
"And how did you find this, and she told you about it when she was dying?"
Yuan Qianxiao nodded, took out a letter from his handbag and handed it to Ye Quan.
Ye Liang didn't take it, motioned for her to put the letter on the table, and then put on a pair of black silk gloves and picked up the letter.
The envelope was glued to old kraft paper by itself, not a word was written on it, and the letter was not sealed.
Yuan Qianxiao hurriedly said, "I didn't read the content of the letter, Granny Yin said that I can only give it to Miss Ye to you to see in person," she raised a hand; "I promise." She held up a hand as she spoke.
"Miss Yuan's profession is ......"
"I'm a teacher at a national kindergarten."
"Oh," Ye Liang glanced at her incomprehensibly, Yuan Qian smiled and lowered his head embarrassedly, his hands clasped together, a little nervous.
Zhao Nan nodded outside the house: No wonder this Yuan Xiaojie looks childish, it turns out to be a kindergarten teacher, smiling lightly, so that it is really worthy of her name.
"Miss Ye, my name is Yin Guizhen, if you can read this letter, it means that I am dead, and even my soul has been scattered, there is no way to gather all the spirits to see you in person, I can't afford to be sick and my days are numbered, I learned about you and that mysterious contract from a certain channel, but I have nothing now, even after death, there is nothing left, and I have no capital to sign a contract with you. I can only provide Miss Ye with a message about an unrighteous person, and if you dispose of this person, you may get a peerless treasure. That person's name is Cai Yong, and he has a magical guqin, which is unique in the world, and he can play ancient songs by himself in the dead of night. And he snatched it from my father, and he poisoned my father to get it, and I was left alone for the rest of my life. If Miss Ye is interested in this qin, you can go to him to help me take revenge, and the qin is yours......"
Ye Quan put down the letter and sneered: "When my eyelids are so shallow, I can see everything." ”
Yuan Qianxiao was a little at a loss, she didn't know the content of the letter, seeing that this Miss Ye was not kind in tone, her eyes widened nervously, like an innocent deer.
Ye Liang looked up and saw Yuan Qianxiao's appearance, and smiled: "Did anyone say that you look like a sika deer?" ”
"Huh?" Yuan Qianxiao looked surprised, and couldn't help but reach out to touch his face, "I have a round face, and my face is not long." ”
"Praise you, silly girl." Ye Liang stood up and made a send-off appearance, "Okay, I have received the letter, your task is complete, Miss Yuan." ”
Yuan Qianxiao stood up a little dazed: "That...... Don't you want to know about Granny Yin? She has been living alone in our Duck and Goose Lane, very lonely, she can write and paint, she is really good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, my piano is learned from her. ”
Ye Limiting said in his heart, why is this little girl so blind. Zhao Nan held back a smile and shouted loudly outside: "Miss Yuan, I don't know if I will have the honor to listen to you play a song." ”
"Miss Yuan still has to go home, how can she have time to mess around with us." Ye Liang hurriedly stopped.
Unexpectedly, Miss Yuan replied crisply: "Okay, then I'll be ugly, I'm not busy." ”
Ye Liang moved out of the way, opened the door, and rushed to Zhao Nanzhi to roll his eyes.
Zhao Nan smiled and hugged his shoulders with his hands, the little squirrel squatted on his shoulder, and when he saw Yuan Qianxiao sitting on the guqin, he was so frightened that he hugged his head with two little paws, and then drilled into Zhao Nan's arms.
Zhao Nan held back a smile, endured extremely hard, Ye Liang pinched his back arm heavily, Zhao Nan couldn't help but sigh, Yuan Qianxiao looked up and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Ah...... It's okay, you continue. Zhao Nan's mouth was very big, because it wasn't a laugh, it hurt.
