Chapter 61: The Sound of the Flute Rises Again
There was no one else in the courtyard, and Qin Ziyan stood under the fire lotus flower, tilting his head slightly. The evening breeze blows through the tips of the hair, a few strands of green silk fly, purple clothes flutter, and the empty yard looks even quieter.
After a long time, I heard a soft sigh, crossing this dusk, and how many shallow ripples were exchanged for it.
In the distance of the sky, a pair of Guiyan swept by happily, leaving a murmur.
When she came back to her senses, it was already completely dark, and she hadn't figured out where it was, and if she went out like this, she wasn't sure she could go back, because she still didn't need half of her internal energy. Although the man was not good, he didn't seem to have any malicious intent, or he had been asleep for so long, he really wanted to do anything, and he didn't know if the disciples of the Kunwu Sect had arrived, thinking about this, she made up her mind to stay here for one night first, and then make plans tomorrow.
After walking around the courtyard again, she began to walk back, and still smelling the tempting aroma of rice outside the door, she was surprised for a while, and pushed open the door, and saw the man who called himself Yuan Xuan sitting at the table, drinking himself. Seeing her come in, he nodded slightly, pointed to the seat next to her, and motioned for her to sit down. Maybe it was because of the loss of skill and the reason that he had no idea, Qin Ziyan actually sat down obediently.
"When did you come in?"
Qin Ziyan looked up at him, when did he come in? He actually brought a large table of food! He looked at her thinking funny, and the two words "for a long time" overflowed from his mouth, and he continued to drink his wine, his expression seemed to have no intention of talking to her at all.
For a long time, Qin Ziyan pondered in her heart, how long was that, "How could you enter my room without permission?"
He chuckled and said, "I should ask you this sentence, it seems that I am the master here!"
Only then did I realize that I had forgotten my feelings just now, and I couldn't help but feel a little strange when I thought that I had been lying on the bed of a strange man before.
Yuan Xuan seemed to be a little aware, and said: "This was originally the residence of a friend of mine, but now that she is traveling, I will temporarily rescue you here, she is also a woman, you can rest assured." ”
Ziyan realized this, and said in her heart: "No wonder this place is so pure and elegant, it was originally a woman's residence, but what is the relationship between this man named Yuan Xuan and her, and he actually lives here without asking?" As soon as she thought of this, she couldn't help but scold herself: "What is their relationship with themselves, what a fool." ”
"Your name is Yuan Xuan?" Qin Ziyan suddenly asked.
He was stunned when he heard this, and the wine glass that came to his mouth suddenly stopped, as if he didn't expect her to suddenly ask such a question; half-ringing, he drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, gently put down the glass, and said coldly: "Yes, my name is Yuan Xuan." His expression was a little strange, very different from before, as if as long as he mentioned the word Yuan Xuan, he would change.
At this time, Ziyan had countless questions in his heart: "Who is he? Why do you want to be yourself, but why does he seem so indifferent?" It's a pity that Yuan Xuan just quietly drank to himself, and he didn't mean to speak at all, Ziyan was not a person who talked much, and the other party was a strange man, so it was naturally even more difficult to ask, but he vaguely felt in his heart that he seemed to have many secrets that people couldn't know.
After drinking a jar of wine, Yuan Xuan suddenly stood up and said coldly: "When you were asleep, I had already given you the antidote to the Nine Shadows Mist, although you can't use the True Yuan now, but tomorrow you will be able to recover most of it; "Say it, don't wait for Ziyan to speak, go straight away.
Ziyan heard that the poison had been removed, and hurriedly tried to exercise, and sure enough, he felt that the meridians had been able to gather a little bit of true qi, but for some reason, after knowing that he had detoxified, he didn't have the slightest joy in his heart, as if he was nostalgic for what to write, but in the end, he couldn't understand ...... in his heart.
After lying down, she tossed and turned on the bed alone and couldn't sleep, thinking about not the demon, but Yuan Xuan's shadow spinning around in her mind, always wondering who this mysterious and handsome man was, and what secrets he had that had to be hidden, she was secretly guessing in her heart.
Suddenly, faintly, she heard a low sound of the flute, which she heard that night, the sound of the flute was ethereal, although it was not accompanied by other music, but it was still very pleasant and moving. She was curious, quietly got out of bed, and followed the sound, but saw a clear and upright figure, standing alone in the wind on the high pavilion in the courtyard. Qin Ziyan had a fast heartbeat for a moment, she had never looked at him so seriously, and even said that she had never seen a man like this. He is tall and cold, with sharp edges and corners, and under the bleak moonlight, his lonely figure is reflected, and the sad melody shows a boundless loneliness. Loneliness? Qin Ziyan didn't know why she thought of the word loneliness to describe it, such a man should not belong to such a word.
Just as she was thinking about it, her voice suddenly stopped, and at some point, Yuan Xuan was already standing in front of her. He looked at her, and Ziyan felt a pang of embarrassment, as if a child who had done something wrong had been caught by an adult.
"Why are you here, is it my flute sound that disturbs you," his voice was different from before, unusually gentle.
Qin Ziyan didn't know what to say, his face couldn't help but turn red again, fortunately it was so dark, he shouldn't be able to see it really.
"Are you the man in the town that night?" she asked suddenly, stupidly.
Yuan Xuan said lightly: "I don't remember, maybe it is, I like to play this song in the dead of night, and it's not strange to be heard by you by chance." ”
Ziyan said: "This song is tactful and desolate, very sad, but it is unforgettable, I don't know who composed it, but there is a name?"
Yuan Xuan was silent for a moment, and Fang said gloomily: "This piece is called 'Preference', which was originally composed for me by the master here, but she wrote the tune for me, but she refused to listen to me play it for her.
Ziyan said: "This is strange, since she specially wrote music for you, but refused to listen to your flute, it must be that you did something to make her unhappy, and deliberately gambled with you." ”
If that's the case, then that's fine. It's just that how can I be angry with her, everything I do just wants to make her happy!" Yuan Xuan finished speaking, and his sad expression became more and more depressed under the moonlight.
