Chapter 7: The Finale

Previous Chapter

When Qi Luoling returned to the old-fashioned house, she had two more things in her hand, which were the photos and sheet music taken out of the wooden box.

Everything seems to be settled, but there are still some unsolved mysteries in her heart. She also wants to know more about what happened to her mother and Cui Zhiyou, and even the grievances and hatreds between the Dun family and the Cui family for generations.

Chopin's piano music lingered in the room, like an ethereal mist. Choi Ji-woo sat on the sofa in the center of the room. The mist spread silently from the other side of time, and there was a bright melancholy color on his body, and a lonely and dazed aphasia.

Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Cui Zhiyou turned his head and said lightly: "As you can see, that box is your mother's urn." ”

"How did my mother die?" Qi Luoling asked calmly.

"Your mother died of an acute infection in her lungs. It was a winter, she lived in a cramped place, the environment was not good, she did not go to the doctor in the early stage of infection, and her condition worsened rapidly due to fatigue during the day, and finally caused respiratory failure, and she died in the hospital after one day of rescue. When I found her, she was dead in her hospital bed. The nurses at the hospital carefully wiped her body like a sleeping baby, and then wrapped a white cloth around her body. I pushed her down the long, dark corridor to the cold morgue. It wasn't until the iron door of the morgue was locked that I realized she was dead. A few days later, she was reduced to ashes in the crematorium. I bury her ashes here, I don't want to help her find a cemetery, I want her soul to be freed, her soul can only be imprisoned here. ”

"Why do you hate her so much, and what is her purpose in approaching you?"

"She doesn't love me, and her only purpose in approaching me is the sheet music in your hand."

Qi Luoling subconsciously glanced at the piano sheet in his hand, which was the third movement of the demonic music that Qi Luoling had been looking for for a long time. Now that she got it easily, she was at a loss, and there was a sense of unreality.

"Why did my mother bother to get this score?"

"Because this score can lift the curse of the Dun family for a hundred years."

Qi Luoling frowned and asked puzzledly, "Oh?" I'd love to know how the Hundred Year Curse came about? What kind of grudge does the Cui family and the Dun family have that make a curse last for a hundred years? ”

Choi Ji-woo took out a few photos from his clothes pocket and put them on the coffee table in front of the sofa.

Qi Luoling picked up the photos suspiciously, these photos were black and white photos from many years ago, the photos were very old and a little yellowed.

The first photo is a photo of the ancient ancestral hall, the four corners of the ancestral hall are high, the tall ancestral hall door, and the door plaque reads "Dun's ancestral hall" in big characters.

The second photograph is of a young woman dressed in a white Korean national costume with wide sleeves and a hair that is split into strands and formed into large braids. She looks familiar, with a melon seed face, a tall nose, and a smile on her face.

The third photo is a picture of the snow in winter, the sky and the earth are white and covered in silver, but if you look closely, you will find that there is a place in the snow that is black, as if there is something lying in the snow.

Qi Luoling suddenly remembered the dream she had had, and the scenes in the dream seemed to be very similar.

She was horrified, if everything was as dreamlike, then the thing in the snow should be the baby, the baby who was thrown to the ground. Thinking about it, she felt her body tremble.

Next, Cui Zhiyou told her about the previous grievances between the Dun family and the Cui family.

The Dun family and the Choi family were both two major families along the coast of ancient Korea a hundred years ago. The two families have a very good personal relationship, among which the grandson of the Dun family, Dun Bangxiu, and the grandson of the Cui family, Cui Shengxian, grew up together. When he reached marriageable age, Tun Bang Xiu married a young local woman, Kim. At that time, the coast was invaded by Japan many times, and because the Atsushi family was quite prestigious in front of them, in order to quell the Japanese harassment, the Atsushi family sent their grandson Atsu Kunitsu to lead everyone to fight against Japan. ”

In that struggle, Japan was defeated, but Tsutsu Bang Xiu did not return with the victorious warship. No one knows whether he is dead or alive. A few months later, the unheard from Tun Bang Show was tacitly assumed to have died in the war.

Dun Bang-so's new wife Kim is very sad, and Choi Seung-hyun, as Dun Bang-so's good brother, often goes to comfort her, and the two gradually develop feelings. Originally, before getting married, Choi Seung-hyun was also fond of the Kim family, but Dun Bangxiu and the Kim family had a friendship first, so he gave up that thought. But now, Dun Bangxiu no longer knows what to do, Choi Seung-hyun picked up his original relationship again, and slowly, the hearts of the two came together.

A year later, when the two young men were about to get together, Tun Bang Xiu unexpectedly appeared and returned home. Tun Bang Xiu hugged her tightly and confessed that the only motivation for his survival and return was from his beloved wife. After experiencing the joy of being reunited after a long absence, Kim found that he did not know how to deal with her husband who had returned from a long journey, let alone how to explain the emotional changes that had happened to her during the year.

But when Kim soon found out that she was pregnant with Choi Seung-hyun's child, reality forced her to face complex emotional entanglements, so she had to confess to her husband what happened this year and beg for Dun Bang-so's forgiveness.

When he heard this, he was surprised, and then he felt a sense of humiliation that he had never felt before. When he was struggling with life and death, the woman he loved the most hooked up with his best brother and betrayed him emotionally. He came to the door to question Choi Seung-hyun, and Choi Seung-hyun was ashamed to admit his relationship with Kim on the spot. Dun Bangxiu was immediately furious, and broke off his robe with Cui's on the spot, breaking off the brotherhood.

In the days that followed, Dun Bangxiu ignored the Kim family, was extremely indifferent, and spent all day drinking outside. Jin knew that he was ashamed, and he burst into tears all day long, and when he was in pain, he wanted to cut himself off, but he took care of the fetus in his womb, so he had to give up and live.

A few months later, Kim gave birth to a son. But without waiting for her to take a second look, Dun Bangxiu immediately sent someone to grab the baby in her bedding and came to the Dun clan ancestral hall, and in front of Cui Shengxian, Dun Bangxiu fell to death the baby on the spot. The Jin family, who came later, witnessed the tragedy with their own eyes, and when they were grief-stricken, they hit their heads on the red pillar of the Dun clan ancestral hall and cut themselves off.

Since then, the enmity between the Dun family and the Cui family has been here, Cui Sheng's kidney pain is unbearable, he lost the woman he loves the most, and he also lost his newborn child. With this toothless hatred, he quickly found a Western wizard, and through his blood oath, the Dun family was cursed: the Dun family would be extinct within a hundred years, and the boy would die before he became an adult.

In the following hundred years, the shadow of the curse followed, and the bad luck of the Dun family continued, and the entire clan was drastically reduced in population due to wars, accidents, and illness, and the male members of the family were not allowed to die well, and they would all die for various reasons before reaching adulthood.

Until World War II, Qi Luoling's maternal grandmother met her maternal grandfather, a woman who had fallen into a century-old curse and a descendant of demonic music. Qi Luoling's grandmother knew one thing very well, only in the face of demonic music, the hundred-year curse of the Dun family would disappear. Just as Qi Luoling once heard the news, the soul imprisoned by the ring in Eric's hand will also be released in the face of demonic music.......

Qi Luoling seemed to understand everything, but she still had some doubts. For example, did your grandmother really love her grandfather, or did she want to get his mysterious score? Is his mission to be the heir to demonic music or to lift the century-old curse of his family?

None of this matters, though, the most important thing is that the three chapters of the Demon's Musical Sheet Music have been obtained. A new chapter in her life unfolds anew, and she smiles at her slightly bulging abdomen, and at the same time her lover is about to wake up.......
