Outside the city of Tai'an, ten miles away, this is a dilapidated mansion, covered with cobwebs above the gate, and the plaque has collapsed in half, staggering as if it is about to fall.

Thinking about it, this house has been uninhabited for many years, otherwise it would not be so dilapidated.

"Tanefu"

Faintly on the plaque, you can still see these two words clearly.

And there are few people around this mansion, as if this is the only one who lives here.

A breeze blew, and a man with a wooden box appeared here, looking at the dilapidated mansion, and was fascinated. I don't know how long it took for the man to step forward, but when he just stepped on the steps, he tapped the wooden box with his backhand, and a rainbow light appeared, heading directly towards a big tree on the left.

I saw that on the top of the big tree, a man in black appeared, and when he saw the flying rainbow light, his face was full of horror, and he just wanted to say something, but he was instantly hit by the rainbow light and pierced his head.

The rainbow light circled around the sky, and when he returned to the wooden box, the man looked at the dead man in black on the tree, and whispered, "After so many years, don't you give up?"

The man pushed open the door and made a cooing sound, which was the sound of the door not opening all year round, rubbing. Sweeping away the cobwebs with his hands, the man stepped into the house.

At this time, the mansion has been overgrown with weeds, and there are some birds and beasts inhabiting here, everywhere has been dilapidated, there is a large water tank in the courtyard, which has been covered with weeds, and the whole picture is basically missing, and the man looked at the corner of the water tank with a bitter smile.

"It's still like that. ”

The man walked slowly towards the lobby, the door had collapsed to the ground, and there was a long wooden box in the lobby, which was already covered with dust and cobwebs, but I didn't know what this wooden box was made of, and it had not rotted away after the baptism of time. Sweeping away the dust and cobwebs on the wooden box, the wooden box was revealed, and it was exactly the same as the man was carrying, except that the wooden box on the table was older.

The man gently opened the wooden box with his hand, very slowly and carefully, and when the wooden box was opened, he saw a yellowed picture scroll. The man carefully took out the scroll and opened it slowly, fearing that it would be broken.

I don't know how many years this scroll has existed here, the portrait painted on this scroll has been blurred, and it is impossible to see the original appearance, but it can still be seen that it is a woman.

The man looked at the woman in the painting, and a portrait came to mind: it was a woman dressed in white, sitting on the ground, with a guqin in front of her, slowly playing.

"Sister, the south wind is back. ”

Mu Nanfeng's eyes were moist, leaving a tear that fell on the painting.

After a long time, the man put away the scroll, put it in the wooden box on the table, put it on his back, turned and left, stepped out of the plantation, and headed towards Tai'an City.

......

On the streets of Tai'an, Lao Gai walked out of the inn alone, holding a pot of wine in his hand, step by step as if drunk, staggering towards the city gate in the west.

Walking out of the city gate, as if familiar with the road, without any stop, towards the front, about a refreshment time, came to a place overgrown with flowers and plants.

Even though it was night, under the moonlight, you could see that the place was very quiet.

Lao Gai walked on a path among the flowers, and walked inside, and after walking for long, he could see that there was a tomb in front of him.

Old Gai staggered, with tears on his face, and walked towards the grave step by step.

The tomb was very clean, without any weeds, and I think someone should have been taking care of it all year round.

Lao Gai sat down in front of the tomb, poured down a pot of wine in his hand, stretched out his old hands, and touched the tombstone.

The words on the tombstone are clearly visible.

"The Tomb of My Wife Muyeon"

"Yan'er, I'm back. ”

Lao Gai actually opened his mouth to speak, if they were born here in vain, I was afraid that they would be shocked and they would not be able to speak.

The breeze blew, as if telling a sad and weeping story, and Lao Gai sat in front of the tomb, as if he had finished the words that had been precipitated in his heart and had not been spoken.

A man, a pot of wine, a grave, a story

I don't know how long it took, but Lao Gai left the pot of wine and left.

It's just that when Lao Gai turned to leave, the originally bright moonlight suddenly became cloudy, and the moonlight was covered, and then suddenly thunder shook and a night rain fell violently.

Lao Gai walked forward in the heavy rain, as if at this moment his body was no longer bent, but became erect.

......

Mu Nanfeng appeared here with two wooden boxes on his back and an umbrella, reached out to touch the tombstone, and slowly shouted in an almost choked voice: "Sister".

Mu Nanfeng looked at the wine jug under the tombstone, and suddenly his face was shocked, but then he smiled bitterly.

"It is rumored that you are already dead, how can you still appear here. ”

Mu Nanfeng shook his head, stood in the rainy night with an umbrella, and softly told what had happened over the years.

"Sister, I like someone, but it seems that she has someone she likes. ”

"Sister, I learned to fly the rainbow in the box, and now I am also a big master in the famous towns in the rivers and lakes. ”

"Sister, you have been teaching me to play the piano, but I complained to you because of the delay in practicing martial arts, now that I have learned, it is good for me to play it for you. ”

Mu Nanfeng ignored the rain, just sat cross-legged on the ground like this, and put the wooden box on his back on his lap, which made the rivers and lakes of the Jin Kingdom shake, and today he can finally see its true face, but no one can see it.

The wooden box was opened, and there was a guqin inside, and there was nothing except the guqin, what was the seven Changhong that flew out?

Guqin has seven Daoxuan.

Mu Nanfeng put his hands on the qinxuan, but the umbrella was suspended above him, and a piano sounded, melodious in the song, with the meaning of longing, echoing in the flowers!

As Mu Nanfeng played the piano music, the qin xuan was brilliant, and then suddenly flew out, spinning around him.

This is the rainbow in the box!

......

Bai Sheng and Liu Xi'er, who returned to the inn, did not see Lao Gai, and the shopkeeper took out a note, saying that it was left by Lao Gai.

Bai Sheng looked puzzled, he never knew that Lao Gai could write, he just looked at the content on the note.

"Don't look for it, see you in three days. ”

This is the time that Wu Qi agreed with them, only the three of them know, thinking that this note should be left by Lao Gai, but where did Lao Gai go?

Bai Sheng was full of doubts, he always felt that after Lao Gai came to Tai'an City, his expression was wrong.

"What's wrong?" Liu Xi'er looked at Bai Sheng and couldn't help asking.

Bai Sheng couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I should be abandoned." ”

"Hehe!" Liu Xi'er couldn't help laughing, and then said: "Then you go with me to see grandpa, I think he will be happy to see you alive." ”

"Then let's go!" Bai Sheng replied.

Bai Sheng never thought that Liu Xi'er actually took him to a nine-story tower, and looked at the name of the tower, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"Changle Mansion. ”

"This is the legend on the rivers and lakes, the Changle Mansion founded by the predecessor of a great grandmaster?"

Liu Xi nodded and replied: "It was founded by Granny Yu, she is a pianist, and no one in the whole world can compare to her." ”

When Bai Sheng heard this, he understood that the original Great Grandmaster was a woman, and a woman who had achieved a great grandmaster and even created such a top force was really admirable.

"Let's go!"

Liu Xi'er took Bai Sheng into this Changle Mansion that too many pianists wanted to enter.

As soon as I stepped into the tower, I saw that there were still many luthiers here at this moment, all of whom were nervous, but all of them were silent and very quiet.

And these luthiers still look into a beaded curtain from time to time, not knowing what they are expecting.

"Xi'er, why are there so many people?"

"They all came to apprentice. ”

Bai Sheng suddenly realized.

"Next. ”

Suddenly, a voice came from inside the bead curtain, and I saw a white-robed woman walking out with a guqin in her arms, with a lonely face and tears in her eyes.

"It's her. ”

Bai Sheng recognized this woman as the one who was going to cut off Lao Gai's hand and force him to go to the platform.

"Xiao Baisheng, do you know her?"

Liu Xi'er asked, this is her title for Bai Sheng, because in terms of age, Liu Xi'er is a few days older than him.

Bai Sheng told Liu Xi'er what had happened before.

"Oh, that's right!"

"It's just that I didn't expect to meet her here, it seems that I came here to apprentice!" Bai Sheng sighed.

"It's just that she failed. "Liu Xi'er has been in Changle Mansion for many days, and she has long been accustomed to apprenticeship, and it is very difficult to become a pianist in Changle Mansion.

The woman was about to leave, and when she looked up, she saw Bai Sheng at the door, and she couldn't help but be stunned, but the woman was extremely depressed because of the failure of her apprenticeship, and she ignored Bai Sheng.

"Girl, fortunately, I didn't expect to meet here. Bai Sheng stepped forward and greeted out of the etiquette of the rivers and lakes.

The woman didn't expect Bai Sheng to greet her, so she couldn't help but salute for a while, and then returned a salute, without the previous pungent and unreasonable.

At this time, a musician from Changle Mansion walked out, this is a young woman, with a unique temperament, although her appearance is not a country and a city, but because of her temperament, it makes people feel very kind.

"Sister Lian"

When Liu Xi'er saw the woman, she couldn't help but look happy, and hurriedly shouted.

"Xi'er is back, why are you so happy?" The woman also smiled, pulled Liu Xi'er into her arms, and quipped.

"Meet Miss Lian. ”

When the surrounding violinists saw the woman appear, they all hurriedly saluted her, and even the white-robed woman looked respectful.

This lotus girl, named Qinlian, is a pianist in Changle Mansion, a master sister of this generation, and a six-grade pianist, who is placed in the rivers and lakes, and is a master who can compare with the hermit realm.

Qin Lian replied to everyone, which showed this woman's mind, but when he saw Bai Sheng with a long sword on his back, he couldn't help but be stunned, because the people who came to Changle Mansion were all piano masters who came to apprentice, and it was rare to see a young man with a sword on his back.

"In Xia Qinlian, dare to ask Your Excellency who it is, what is the so-called matter of coming to Changle Mansion?"

Bai Sheng couldn't help scratching his head when he heard the woman who had a very good relationship with Liu Xi'er, but his eyes looked at Liu Xi'er. Bai Sheng's actions escaped Qin Lian's gaze, and he couldn't help but look at Liu Xi'er in his arms.

"Your suitor?"

Liu Xi'er's face flushed, she looked shy, and hurriedly said, "It's not!"

Seeing Liu Xi'er's appearance, Qin Lian couldn't help but be surprised, you must know that since Liu Xi'er came to Changle Mansion, those young and handsome men who knew Liu Xi'er's identity almost broke the threshold, just wanting to get Liu Xi'er's side.

It's just that Liu Xi'er has been sullen since she came to Changle Mansion, sometimes crying alone, and she hasn't prayed day and night, only when she is with her master, can she show a smile. I knew from the mouth of Jianlu that Liu Xi'er was waiting for someone, but that person didn't know whether he was alive or dead now, but in fact, he was nine deaths and one life.

It's just that now that Liu Xi'er actually looks like this, Qin Lian couldn't help but look at Bai Sheng, and couldn't help but wonder if he was Liu Xi'er's person who thought about it all night.

"In Xia Baisheng, I have seen Miss Qin. Bai Sheng saw that Liu Xi'er didn't help him explain, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and hurriedly replied.

"It turns out that you are the little lover that our Xi'er thinks about at night!" Qin Lian couldn't help but smile and quipped.

The white-robed woman on the side looked like a woman for a while, but she didn't expect that the young man who seemed to be a beggar actually had such a woman who was all over the country and the city.

"Sister Lian, you hate it, don't talk nonsense. Liu Xi'er's face was flushed.

Qin Lian finally confirmed that her guess was right, the inconspicuous young man in front of her was the person Liu Xi'er was waiting for, the one who died for a lifetime, but he really came here.

"What's wrong with us?"

At this time, a voice with a hint of old age came from the top of the stairs, and I saw a gray-haired woman strolling down slowly.

"Meet the Master. ”

When Qin Lian saw someone coming, she hurriedly knelt on the ground and bowed.

Hearing this, the surrounding qin masters were the only one who could be called the ancestor by Qin Lian, the great master who founded Changle Mansion, Concubine Yu.

"Meet the Grandmaster. ”

They all knelt on the ground, looking nervous and excited, but they didn't even dare to breathe.

On the contrary, when Bai Sheng saw this great grandmaster, he didn't have that kind of excitement, he just had a normal heart and gave a salute.

"Bai Sheng saw his seniors. ”

"Granny Yu. Liu Xi'er said.

Concubine Yu looked at Bai Sheng, and then couldn't help but smile: "You're here." ”

It's only three words, but it says it all.

You're here, and you've kept that guy waiting for a long time.

Bai Sheng raised his head and clasped his fists again: "Senior, I'm here, it's too late." ”

"It's still not too late, it's not easy to get here alive. Concubine Yu said slowly, then looked at Liu Xi'er, and said again: "Only Xi'er, a stupid girl, believes that you are still alive." ”

Bai Sheng looked at Liu Xi'er, thinking about how painful she was when the news of her death reached her, otherwise she would have cried so loudly when she saw herself.

The people around them were wondering who the young man in front of them was, and he could actually make that great grandmaster figure like this.

"You are the daughter of the Luo family, right?" Concubine Yu looked at the woman beside Bai Sheng and asked.

"Luo Shui greeted his seniors. The white-robed woman hurriedly responded.

Concubine Yu nodded, and then said, "In the future, you will learn the piano from Lian'er here!"

"Luo Shui, thank you seniors for your great kindness. With tears of excitement, Luo Shui kowtowed to Concubine Yu nine times in a row.

"It's Shizu. Qin Lian looked at it, and Luo Shui couldn't help but sigh that the other party's luck was really good, otherwise he wouldn't be able to pass the assessment with the other party's piano skills.

"Let's go, go upstairs, and tell me, old woman, how you got here. Concubine Yu pulled Liu Xi'er and said to Bai Sheng, her eyes fell on the red sandalwood sword behind him, and she didn't show a funny smile.

Bai Sheng hugged Luo Shui and Qin Lian, followed behind Concubine Yu and Liu Xi'er, and went upstairs.

Everyone was envious!

Luo Shui looked at Bai Sheng's back and bit his lip, not knowing what he was thinking.

......

Within the high walls, a secret letter was sent from the palace and headed for the outside of Tai'an City.

In the Corner Palace, Liang Shan had been on hunger strike for a day, kneeling on the ground, his eyes looking ahead, motionless.
