C160 Life Seeking Music
Lin Yuchen finished his sentence as fast as he could. He closed his eyes and waited for the next second of "torture," or to wait for death.
Yes, even if he died, he could not lose his dignity. Yes, he could not lose his face in front of this girl!
"One, two, three. . . " Lin Yuchen counted in his heart, but after a long time, he still couldn't wait for the girl to attack again. Lin Yuchen slowly opened his eyes and looked at the woman. He saw her standing quietly in front of him, not moving at all.
Why didn't this woman play according to the pattern? She didn't play when it was time to play. . . But her current condition was even more torturous. She might as well play a round, it would be more enjoyable to play a round. . .
Could it be that she had already cooled herself down? It was very likely. Lin Yuchen thought about it and couldn't help but be delighted. He slightly tilted his head to peek at the face under the veil, but unfortunately, he couldn't see anything.
"You, you. . . " Lin Yuchen wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he did not know what to say. He could not help but scratch his head and smile awkwardly. "Oh, have you eaten? I was just about to go and eat. That inn has a few special dishes that are not bad. My treat. "
Lin Yuchen looked at the woman with anticipation, but he did not get any response.
"Why don't I accompany you to the East Market? It's very close. Besides, there are many interesting places inside. Let me tell you, when I was young, I asked for food there. So, I am very familiar with that area. I. . . "
"Did you write this?" The woman suddenly interrupted Lin Yuchen's words.
"Ah?" This was the first time Lin Yuchen had heard the woman speak. He felt that her voice was very pleasant. It was inexplicably pleasant to the ear. It was so pleasant that it made him ignore the content of her words. But her tone. . . It was so cold, just like the ice mountain he saw in the bamboo building that day. It was beautiful from afar, but it made people feel that it was very far away. It made people unable to get close to it. . .
Lin Yuchen raised his head and looked at the girl in front of him again. She was still standing there, motionless. . . " Oh. " A moment later, Lin Yuchen seemed to have woken up from a dream. "What did you say?"
The woman didn't say anything. She waved her sleeve and a piece of white paper flew towards her.
Lin Yuchen quickly took the piece of white paper and saw the words written on it.
"The letter is paused.
The smoke and moon should be here in a few days, and the weather would sometimes be sunny. When the autumn leaves, I'm afraid I'll come from the east.
The frost dyed the mountains red, and the cold chrysanthemum just bloomed. We're only waiting for the red plum blossoms to welcome the snow. Why should we be sad?"
It was written by me. Lin Yuchen couldn't help but furrow his brows as he secretly pondered. Moreover, the words were indeed written by me. But I remember that I took another piece of paper back then. Why did I come together? Could it be that I remembered wrongly?
"No?" The woman asked again.
"I wrote it. " Lin Yuchen was still in a dilemma.
"Listen to me play a song. " After the woman finished speaking, she sat down beside the seven-string zither by the wall.
There was no Seven String Zither in the house. But these few days, Lin Yuchen had nothing to do, and he couldn't help but think of the things that happened in the small house that day, the rabbit in the forest, the words in books, the furnishings in the house, and what he saw by the window. Everything. . .
Lin Yuchen couldn't dig a lake by the window, so he could only borrow the Seven String Zither from the shopkeeper.
Speaking of which, this zither was not an ordinary zither. The name of this zither was "Don't Thoughts," and it was an ancient zither. However, because it had once fallen into the hands of a prostitute, and that prostitute had a miserable ending after that, the zither was regarded as an inauspicious object and was left in the inn.
The shopkeeper was not an elegant person and had long wanted to give the zither to someone else. Unfortunately, no one wanted it. He wanted to destroy the zither, but he was reluctant to do so. That was why he had to keep it.
And so, they met Lin Yuchen. Lin Yuchen did not care about the auspicious and ominous. When he saw that the zither was good, he could not help but love it! He immediately threw two ingots of gold to the shopkeeper, causing him to almost go crazy!
It was originally an unintentional move, but he did not expect that it would be of great use today. Lin Yuchen looked at the woman with a happy expression, but he saw that she was slowly stroking the strings of the zither.
She was going to play, she was going to play. Lin Yuchen could not be more excited. He stared at the woman, unwilling to blink.
He saw that his finger had already drawn the string, but it suddenly stopped. He raised his head, as if he was looking at himself.
"Oh, you play it. I'm listening. " Lin Yuchen quickly said.
The woman thought for a long time and then slowly lowered her head.
She gently plucked the strings of the zither. It was as if the spring breeze was supporting the willow as it drifted over. If there was still no more. . . The sound of the zither slowly became heavier. It was also like a trickling stream that slowly flowed over.
It was truly 'lowering one's head to continue playing the song', as if it was telling the infinite things in one's heart. He gently picked up the strings, slowly played them again and again. First time, he was Nishang's 60th birthday. The big string was noisy like the rain, and the small string was like whispering to each other. The noise was like a stray bullet, and the small string was like a whisper. The big bead and small bead fell onto the jade plate. Guan Yingyu's words were smooth, and it was hard for her to swallow the cold water. The cold water of the spring was extremely condensed. The freezing never stopped, and the sound of the strings stopped for a moment. There was no need to worry, but there was hatred in his heart. At this moment, silence was better than sound. The silver bottle broke through the liquid and burst out. Boom! "
At first, Lin Yuchen thought that it was because he felt the worry in the music that he felt short of breath. But now, he realized that it was not the case.
Lin Yuchen only felt that the true qi in his body was boiling, as if his body was going to explode at any moment.
However, there was nothing he could do. His entire body was floating in the air, but it was as if he had fallen into a quagmire, and he couldn't move at all.
"Do you really have to kill me? Can't you give me a chance? I also regret what happened. Lin Yuchen spoke very quickly. This was not intentional. It was just that he felt that everything had inexplicably become very fast. The sound of the zither was very fast, and his heart was also very fast. His breathing was rapid, and his scalp was full of goosebumps. All the blood vessels in his body felt like they were going to burst. It was as if he had reached a critical state. . . It was as if his whole body would explode into pieces in the next second. . .
"If you think you will feel better after killing me, you can do it. . . " Lin Yuchen shouted in a stern voice.
"Buzz ~" A quiet sound was heard, and the sound of the zither broke.
"Bang!" Lin Yuchen landed on the ground.
Lin Yuchen closed his eyes and breathed heavily. The True Qi in his body gradually calmed down, but his whole body was still swollen and painful. Not only was it swollen and painful, but it was also abnormally numb. It was like thousands of ants crawling and biting all over his body at the same time. It was extremely uncomfortable.
Lin Yuchen laid on the ground and felt that the world had suddenly become unusually quiet. After a long time, there was no sound. Lin Yuchen hurriedly opened his eyes and looked at the woman. But the woman had already disappeared without a trace.
