"Listen, here's the important thing. ”

Ye Qingxuan said: "First of all, I want to tell you that if you awaken the Nine Heavens Huanpei and are recognized by it, then you will be the master of the Ye family from now on."

In other words, your words and deeds in the future will represent the 'Ye Clan' in the blood of the dragon vein, but your father and I have already run away from the east, so you don't have to care about this.

However, this piano is something that has been passed down from your grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's generation. You know, old thing, there are a lot of rules, no way.

Before you become a full-fledged musician, you'll probably only be able to invoke some of its features. So, make do with it first, and at least you can have a sum of money left over to buy a musical instrument.

If you feel like you can't get your hands on it, it's okay to change it. Anyway, it's an old antique, so it's a souvenir. ”

Ye Lanzhou said these inconsequential words with a relaxed face, not at all afraid that the ancestors and ancestors would release a thunderbolt to kill him.

"To be honest, the blood of the dragon vein is not as good as you think, and a lot of things are quite troublesome. I just hated this and came to the West.

So, when you were born, I sealed your gifts. I'm going to wait until you're an adult, and let you choose whether to unravel it or not. But if I'm not there, I can only disarm myself if I enter the resonance level. ”

Ye Lanzhou spread his hands helplessly: "If you urgently need something like cheats, talents, etc., I can only say I'm sorry." ”

When Ye Qingxuan heard this, he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

Everyone else is a cheating father, father, it's really neat for you to pit your own son!

"Ahem, I'm sorry, this was my mistake, don't worry about it.

But there's one thing I want you to be able to pay attention to. ”

In the moonlight phantom, Ye Lanzhou's expression became serious: "Listen to Ye Zi, before you become a resonance-level musician, absolutely, absolutely, never check anything about me."

I've erased a lot of memories of me, but there are still a few monsters that I can't erase. So don't look into those things until you're strong enough to protect yourself.

It's not good for you or for the people around you.

My only piece of advice for you right now is: if you're still in Avalon, get out of here as soon as possible. It's best not to have anything to do with the Shadow of Avalon.

It was the sin of the Mad King Arthur hundreds of years ago, and the royal family had already suffered a curse for it, and Anglo would pay a heavy price for it. So, until that day comes, you must not enter the Shadow of Avalon, understand?"

Ye Qingxuan listened to Ye Lanzhou's message in astonishment, and after a long time, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Father, you're too late. ”

He already had a strong relationship with the city, and even the Shadow of Avalon was close to getting into it. Now the ruffians throughout the Lower City know that their heads have something to do with the Shadow of Avalon.

"I'm afraid you're not having a good time now, are you?"

Ye Lanzhou in the moonlight phantom suddenly said, "I set this song as the key to unlock, because only when you are most confused and painful, you can comprehend it."

If you need help, go find the old ghost. Although the old ghost sometimes doesn't recognize his relatives, he is the most trustworthy person in the whole of Avalon.

He owes me a lot of favors, and you can trouble him as much as you want. ”

'Old ghost'?

Ye Qingxuan was stunned.

He had seen the name from the notes left by Ye Lanzhou, and it was written on the score of Black Friday that this song was inspired after communicating with the old ghost.

But who is the old ghost?

In the video, Ye Lanzhou pinched his chin and pondered: "I remember what is his name now......?"

At this point, his image shook.

The moonlight was scattered.

"Well, it seems that time is running out? ”

He smiled helplessly and waved to the boy: "So, goodbye, Yezi." ”

In the flickering images, there was a faint jumble of sounds, like explosions and roars.

Ye Lanzhou glanced back at him, his eyes darkened, and he couldn't help sighing: "The speed of this group of guys is even faster than I thought." ”

As if he couldn't hold it anymore, he lowered his head, covered his mouth, coughed softly, and the blood fell from his fingers drop by drop, falling on the moonlight white clothes, and it became scarlet and beautiful.

"I'm sorry, I've had a bit of a cold lately. ”

He smiled with difficulty, touched the corners of his mouth, propped up a nonchalant smile, and waved his hand to Ye Qingxuan: "Take care of yourself, Ye Zi." Don't be like me. ”

Ye Lanzhou slowly retreated, and the dust fell on his white clothes, looking a little embarrassed

The moonlight gradually dimmed, and his face blurred, but the eyes that looked at the young man were full of reluctance and relief.

The basement was once again pitch black.

In the dissipating moonlight, there was a farewell whisper from a long time ago: "Yezi, it's great that you can become a musician." ”

In the darkness, the boy stared at the place where the moonlight dissipated, and after a long time lowered his head.

"Yes. ”――

In the middle of the night, the basement door opened silently.

Ye Qingxuan cautiously poked his head out from behind the door, cautiously looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one around, he nodded with satisfaction.

It's good, everyone is asleep.

He crept to the hall, which was empty, the starlight illuminated the tables and chairs, and the silence was only the sound of crickets outside the door.

I took off the jacket from the hanger, quickly put it on, and then took out another hat and stuffed all my hair into it.

"Thankfully, it wasn't discovered. ”

He looked at his blurred shadow in the mirror, and finally nodded with satisfaction: "It's almost the same way to dress up like this." ”

In the silence, suddenly an arm came out of the spur and drooped over his shoulder. The sudden stimulation made his body tense subconsciously, and he almost screamed.

But then, a smirk with a strong smell of wine appeared beside him, grabbed his shoulder, and waved his hand to the young man in the mirror:

"Yo, junior brother, haven't you slept yet?"

Ye Qingxuan saw Xia Er and squeezed out a smile with difficulty: "Senior brother, you haven't slept yet?"

"For the past two days, I have been having nightmares, dreaming of something bloody, and I was scared to wake up. Charles shrugged, "I was about to have two drinks, and I happened to run into you, would you like to have some?"

"No need. Ye Qingxuan shook his head with a dry smile.

"Anyway, where are you going? ”

"I ...... Go for a walk. ”

Ye Qingxuan racked his brains to find an excuse, and said seriously, "I've not been in a good mood these two days, I want to go and relax." Maybe you'll figure it out?"

"Really? Then you have to be careful. Charles said lightly, "Do you know how many people in the lower part of the city want to catch you dreaming of making a fortune." ”

“......”

Ye Qingxuan was silent, he looked at Xia Er's drunken eyes, and asked embarrassedly, "...... Senior brother, do you know everything?"

"You can't think I've been fooling around for all these years, can you?"

Charles picked his nostrils and looked at the little ghost in front of him: "Let's put it this way, the entire Xiacheng District has been like taking an aphrodisiac for the past two days."

The guys almost got all the white-haired old men into their nest to find you. Now it's time for the whole city to put up your notice.

Are you going to give them turkeys for Christmas?

Listen to my brother's words, stay well in school, and the teacher will be able to cover you. It's a big deal, if you don't go out, what can they do with you?"

"It's not an option to hide in school all the time, is it?"

Ye Qingxuan took off his hat with some frustration: "You see, for so long, I'm hiding in the academy." I've looked through so many books to find an explanation, but I still can't find a solution.

I can hide, I don't care if I hide for three or four years, five or six years. But what are you going to do? You and Bai Xi can't help but go out, right?

We obviously have nothing wrong, why do we live this kind of life where we will be hunted down and killed even when we go to the street to buy something?

Somebody has to settle this matter, and if I don't go, who will?"

“......”

Charles was silent, he quietly looked at the young man in front of him with the wine bottle, and after a long time, he sighed softly, lifted the wine bottle and poured it halfway down.

"Now, don't say that I won't help you, senior brother, come with me. ”

"Where?"

"Basement. ”――

In the basement, Charles turned on the lights in the corners one by one, completely illuminating the entire basement.

In the empty basement, he pushed the scrapped piano aside and walked to the corner of the wall to the mass of things covered with dust cloths.

The pile of what looked like scrapped machinery and something strange took up most of the basement, releasing the smell of oil and rusted steel as the dust cloth lifted up.

"Senior brother, what are you looking for?" the young man asked curiously when he saw this.

Charles looked back at him, his eyes seemed to be a little helpless: "Yezi, this turned out to be my workshop." You've been in my workshop for almost a month, haven't you ever wondered what this place is all about?"

"No ......"

Ye Qingxuan was a little embarrassed: "Without the permission of others, I generally don't want to touch other people's things." ”

"Do you always be polite in such indifferent places?"

Charles tugged at the dust cloth with difficulty: "Come here, take a hand." ”

Under the vigorous drag of the two of them, the heavy dust cloth was finally completely lifted and thrown in the corner.

The sleeping workshop was finally exposed to the light again, and the unfinished creations were reflected in the boy's drill.

A massive, mangled batwing that looked like a steel skeleton, a carriage that looked like it was powered by mechanical force but lacked two wheels, and a heavy garment made of leather that enclosed the entire person perfectly, including the skull, and the eyes were replaced by two glass lenses.

There was a bronze full-body armor that had long since been corroded, and the chest cavity that could be opened was full of dense chains......

"What is this?"

The young man stroked the inner cavity of the whole body armor and observed the sequence: "This conduction structure is to make it move?"

"This thing...... It was when I was thirteen or fourteen years old. ”

Charles squatted beside him, scratching his head a little embarrassedly: "I was full of confidence that I wanted to make a mechanical puppet that could walk and come out to play with me, and I named it 'Pinocchio', but unfortunately, in the end, it still didn't work. The problem of center of gravity is really difficult to solve. ”

"You used so many parts just to design a machine that could walk?" Ye Qingxuan was a little puzzled.

"Ahaha, who knows what the kid thinks, maybe he's just bored......"

Charles stared at the puppeteer's heart, looking at the handwriting on it—'My friend: Pinocchio'.

"It's all in the past, and I don't need it anymore. ”

He pulled up the dust cloth and covered the armor.

"Come with me, here's what you've got for you. (To be continued.) )
