Chapter 121: The Rouge Goose Breast and the West Chamber (4)
"It's not a dead thing, it's a dead thing, that thing shouldn't belong to that man, but to a dead soul."
"Revenant?" Bai Li hurriedly shook his head: "It's really unlucky, how can I go out casually, and when I meet someone casually after going out, I can meet the revenant, I have to wonder if I have a ghost-summoning physique." Let's go, let's go. ”
"Li'er, are you scared?"
"I'm afraid, but not of ghosts, but of getting into trouble. Let's go, let's leave this place and go to Piaoxiangju, my master is still waiting for me. ”
Bai Li's voice was not loud, but it was obvious that the pair of men and women who had just passed by her had good ears, and they heard the conversation between Bai Li and Bai Ze, and turned around together to look at the two who were about to leave. After the four of them looked at each other for a moment, the man and woman suddenly walked in opposite directions, and their steps were extremely fast, as if they were running.
Bai Ze's face changed, and then he protected Bai Li behind him.
"You two, can you tell that this qin is wrong?" Before he could reach him, the man spoke impatiently, and removed the black cloth that wrapped the thing in his arms.
Bai Li saw that the man was only in his thirties, but his eyes were full of vicissitudes.
"You're holding a piano in your arms?" Bai Li had just finished asking, and the man had already taken off all the black cloth: "It's really a piano, and it looks like that kind of guqin." ”
"The girl knows the piano?"
"I don't know, but I've seen a few pictures of the piano before...... I mean, I can probably recognize the pattern of the piano, but I can't say it specifically. ”
"I see, I thought the girl knew the piano." The man was slightly disappointed.
"Not everyone knows about the piano." The woman next to the man excused, "We just heard this girl say that it was a dead thing, and we heard this gentleman say what kind of dead air it was, so we want to know, who is the dead air in this gentleman's mouth?" It's this piano in my husband's hand, or my husband. ”
It turned out to be a couple.
"This friend of mine is a fortune teller and knows a little about feng shui, so you just ask him." Bai Li stepped back slightly, signaling the couple to ask Bai Ze directly.
"Fortune teller? So this gentleman's surname is Bai? ”
"My surname is indeed Bai." Bai Ze nodded.
"Great, we just came to Mr. Bai." The woman's face was full of excitement, and she almost reached out to pull Bai Ze: "Don't hide it, sir, both of us are from Liyang City." This is my husband Xu Qing, my little character Juan'er, this guqin was purchased by my husband from an old man. ”
"Let me tell you." The man glanced at the woman, sighed, and said, "My name is Xu Qing, and I teach students to play the piano as a teacher in Liyang Academy. This piano is not only a means of earning a living, but also a mentor and friend to me. Juan'er is my teacher's daughter, we have known each other since childhood, and we married at the age of sixteen. ”
"This is a real childhood sweetheart."
"Yes, it's really a childhood sweetheart. It has been more than ten years since the two of us got married. Husband and wife are harmonious and respect each other. These days, although they are not rich and rich, they are also safe and stable, and the water flows for a long time. I thought that our lives would be quiet until our gray hair was like frost, and we left hand in hand to go to the underworld. ”
"You're thinking so long?" Bai Li, who has never even looked for an object, obviously hasn't thought about this, her life goal has always been very short, that is, to live one day at a time, as long as she lives well today, she will not worry about tomorrow's sadness. As for the white-headed old age, it is even more casual, it is best to be white-headed, if you can't, you won't force it.
"You came to Huaxi Town from Liyang City, but your original life was disturbed by this guqin?" Bai Ze directly asked the crux of the question.
"Yes!" Xu Qing nodded: "I learned the piano since I was a child, and when I became an adult, I made a living by teaching students piano skills. The piano in my hand, named Yuexia Banana, was purchased from an old friend half a year ago. Speaking of this guqin, there is really something unbelievable. My friend is a person who doesn't play the piano himself, but knows a lot about the piano and loves to collect guqin. In his collection, there are many guqins that are better than this banana, but for some reason, when I saw this banana, I had a sense of déjà vu. Ever since I got this piano, every time I played, I always felt like I had fallen into another unknown place, and I could vaguely see a girl. ”
"Meet a girl."
"Yes!" Xu Qing sighed: "Whenever my fingers pluck on the strings, I fall into a very strange illusion, as if I am not in my own piano room, but in a woman's boudoir. Sometimes it's a sunny day, and through the window, you can see the banana trees planted outside the window. Sometimes it's raining, and the windows are closed, but you can hear the rain hitting the plantains. Sometimes it's day, sometimes it's night. Sometimes I see a woman sitting quietly listening to me play the piano, and sometimes I see the woman dancing softly with her long sleeves, dancing one song after another with my banana under the moon. But no matter what kind of illusion I was in, I never saw her face clearly. Her face was like a veil, hazy and invisible. But the more I couldn't see it, the more I wanted to see it clearly, and every time I played the piano, I felt like I was crazy. ”
"My husband was originally an elegant person, but since he got this banana under the moon, he has become no longer like him. Especially the way he looks when he plays the piano is very scary. There was a hint of fear in Juan'er's eyes: "His eyes, his expression, and even his movements on the piano were like a demon." When my husband was sober, I asked him, and he said that the banana in his hand was very likely to be a spirit, and the woman he saw in the illusion was the embodiment of the banana under the moon. ”
"No, if this guqin is really a spirit, then it is a living thing, not a dead thing." The white glass interface said.
"My family Li'er is right, this guqin is not without precedent, but the guqin that has become fine is by no means a dead thing, let alone a dead thing. This piano is not a refinement, but is possessed by a dead soul. In layman's terms, there is a wisp of a woman's ghost hidden in this guqin, or a female ghost is hidden. ”
"Female ghosts?" Juan'er's face changed suddenly: "But if it's a female ghost, why is it only pestering my husband?" Because of this banana, we went to visit the friend who sold the guqin to my husband, who had been collecting the qin for several years, but had never seen such a bizarre sight. ”
"There must be a reason for everything, some are predestined, some are coincidences. That's it, not far in front of Piaoxiangju, if the two of you are not in a hurry, let's go over together, I will take a closer look at this piano. Perhaps, I can find the woman hiding in the piano and ask her why she is only pestering Mr. Xu Qing. ”
