My chaotic head suddenly woke up, and my sleepiness disappeared without a trace. My whole body was like a bent spring that suddenly relaxed, and I sat up straight.

Listen carefully for a moment, except for the sound of the mountain wind that sounds like wild ghosts howling, no one is playing music outside the cave!

Bah!

I slapped Old A's bald head fiercely and said angrily: "Are you suffering from hysteria? I think you are just frightened these days. How can anyone here play music?"

"It really does!"

Old A’s face was full of grievances. Since he met us, his big bald head has suffered a lot. While rubbing the place where he was beaten, he said: "Just now, there was something..."

Before he finished speaking, bursts of melodious music sounded outside again.

It's a flute.

To be honest, this is probably the most pleasant instrumental music I have ever heard in my life. The sound of the flute is melodious and melodious, like the soft intestines of my daughter’s house. It is like crying and complaining. Mixed with the rough mountain wind, there is an indescribable feeling. the taste of.

Cold sweat ran down my forehead. After kicking the three sleeping soldiers awake, I picked up the Nine-Dragon Sword and walked quickly towards the cave entrance. My expression changed. After hesitating for a moment, I shouted to the outside of the cave: "Stop pretending to be a ghost. I'm getting out!"

The flute sounded for a moment, and then sounded again after a while. The low voice was no longer tactful, but sonorous and powerful, and the intention of killing was coming!

"Reckless."

Ji Zi shook her head and said such a sentence out of nowhere.

I asked in confusion: "What?"

"You don't understand."

Ji Zi glanced at me, put her hands behind her hands and walked out.

I am very familiar with this look, because I often have this look when looking at soldiers, and most people also look like this when looking at mountain artillery.

I felt like I had been stabbed in the chest, it was burning.

The mountain forest got even colder at night. As soon as I walked out of the cave, the cold wind hit my face and my breath was suffocated. I had to lower my head in a hurry to get a chance to breathe.

The sound of the flute came from Hu Nu's mouth, deep in the empty valley and could not be heard anywhere.

"The furthest can only go as far as the outer edge of Hu Nukou!"

I shouted loudly from behind to remind Ji Zi, but he waved his hand and made no response. I had no choice but to speed up and catch up.

I walked down the snowy hillside very quickly, and I even occasionally had to use the trees along the way to support my body to slow down the excessive speed.

Near Hu Nu's entrance, there seems to be an ancient pavilion in the dark forest, and the sound of the flute comes from there.

Of course, this pavilion cannot be built by the Huns. The Huns are a nation that is good at destruction, but not good at creation.

The old man in Hailar said that this pavilion was built by Nurhachi, the first emperor of the Qing Dynasty. After the Battle of Sarhu, the Manchu and Qing cavalry swept through Liaodong. They went deep here and heard the story of Hu girls sending their husbands off in the past. Perhaps it was out of the same fate as the conscripts. He felt pity, so he built this pavilion, called Hu Nu Pavilion.

"Stop it!"

A few hundred meters away, I held Ji Zi, then turned on a strong flashlight and shined it towards Hu Nu Pavilion. A young young man in white was playing the flute in the ancient pavilion. He was too far away and I couldn’t see his face clearly. , it must be Gu Zhibai.

The sound of the flute stopped suddenly.

Gu Zhibai in the pavilion said loudly: "You must be the people of Liming, right? I met a person like me before, and he told me about your existence. Since you came all the way to chase me, why? Why don’t you come down and sit with me?”

"Do you think we are stupid?"

I smiled and said: "The Sitting Dragon Sha's qi is in a low-lying area, and the qi is three feet high. If we continue to go down, we will get into your territory!"

Gu Zhibai sighed and put down the flute in his hand.

"It's quiet here at night, and you can talk at this distance."

Ji Zi stood with her hands behind her hands and said calmly: "You can tell me any grievances you have."

Gu Zhibai stood up: "Do you understand?"

"Of course I understand, elegant scholars naturally have elegant communication methods!"

Ji Zi smiled and said: "It is said that you can know the elegant meaning by hearing the string. At first, your flute sound was melodious and euphemistic, and you were very resentful. This is telling us that you have resentment. I heard that the five senses of the Faceless Ghost are very sharp, especially the hearing. It can't be said to be thousands of miles away. But the sound within a thousand meters can still be caught. My companion scolded you angrily. You must have heard it. You think he is arrogant and does not want to care about your grievances. He just wants to arrest you. In a fit of anger, The sound of the flute suddenly changes, it is sonorous and powerful, and the killing intent is fierce. It is telling us that if we want to fight, just let our horses come over!"

After saying this, Ji Zi spread her hands and said: "I guess you went through all the trouble just to tell us that you have grievances. If we are willing to listen and understand you, you can just let us know. Stop, if you don't want to harm anyone, if it doesn't work, then you can only fight to the death. This is the cemetery you chose for us!"

I am even more worried.

Ji Zi is very good at flattering people, and she immediately raised him and Gu Zhibai to the level of elegant scholars. People like me and Dabing... are naturally mountain cannons.

After all, we didn’t understand the meaning of the flute sound.

Gu Zhibai chuckled in the Hu Nu Pavilion. After a moment, he raised his head and asked, "You should know about the things between Mu Qing and me!"

Ji Zi nodded.

Gu Zhibai raised his head again and asked, "What would you do if it were you?"

Ji Zi was stunned, he lowered his head and thought carefully, then said: "I have never been in love, but if someone treats me like this, I will kill someone!"

"Hey, it seems you are stingier than me."

Gu Zhibai walked out of the Hu Nu Pavilion and walked towards us step by step, but stopped halfway. The location of the stop was very clever, just on the edge of the place where the Dragon Qi was sitting.

Sitting on the dragon's qi, it cannot be seen or touched, but it does exist. We can estimate a rough range. Going down is chaos. Going back is the human world, which is also the Chu River and Han realm. We don't want to go down. Gu Zhibai didn't want to come up.

He is close enough for us to see him clearly!

This is a handsome boy, wearing a white down jacket on his upper body, white jeans and white shoes on his lower body. The white color almost blends in with the snow color. He is not a famous brand, but he is very clean, with a delicate face and slightly long hair.

I can't imagine that such a neat and clean boy could be a terrifying faceless ghost.

He was also looking at us, but he only glanced at people like me and Da Bing, as if we were not worthy of exposure. Finally, he looked at Ji Zi and said: "I am more generous than you. , at least I didn't kill Mu Qing. This was Mu Qing's own choice. She made her own decisions about her life. I have no right to kill her for this. Moreover, it's not worth paying for such a person's life. I still have a bright future. I still have a bright future. To make money and be filial to your parents..."

Ji Zi nodded and said, "Is there any secret behind this incident?"

Gu Zhibai did not answer, but asked: "How is my music?"

"Very good."

Ji Zi sighed: "At least I have never heard such a good song."

"There are many more songs like this."

Gu Zhibai was filled with a pure smile: "I have known that I am different from others since I became an adult. I dare not tell my parents or others. Many of my worries are written into the song. One after another... Later, I compiled these songs into an album. This album is half of my life, but..."

At this point, Gu Zhibai’s eyes became gloomy, which was in great contrast with before: "Ji Maocai said that many old artists come to our school to recruit apprentices. Once they are attracted by these old artists, with their connections and abilities, , it will soon make the disciples popular, and let all the students come up with their own proud works, hoping to win the favor of the old artists.

I posted my album and it is said that many people like it.

However, the album’s creator is not me, but Xu Youlong. ”

Ji Zi was startled: "Is it because of Mu Qing that Ji Mao owes the favor to the Xu family?"

"Yes."

Gu Zhibai nodded and gritted his teeth and said: "Xu Dong feels that the Xu family cannot survive. Xu Youwei is somewhat capable, but this Xu Youlong is a complete playboy. He has no merit except drinking and playing with women. When the Xu family is in trouble, Xu Youlong will be doomed sooner or later! This time is his chance. If Xu Dong can be supported by an old artist, and Xu Dong can find many arrangers for Xu Youlong behind the scenes, Xu Youlong will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life."

At this point, Gu Zhibai became angry: "But that is also the most important opportunity in my life. Why do they steal what belongs to me!"

Don't mention this to Gu Zhibai, I feel very angry when I hear it. I haven't seen the talent for so long, and I finally became famous with great difficulty. As a result, under the interests of a bunch of mediocre people, the fruits of my wisdom were stolen by others. No one else would be able to stand it.

Ji Zi lowered his head and said, "It's pitiable."

"So?"

Gu Zhibai suppressed his anger very well and said calmly: "No one I killed deserves to die. As long as you nod, I will never be an enemy of Liming in this life. I will find a job. If I don't Let’s think about those things of fame and fortune, and let my parents take care of themselves until they die.”

Ji Zi sighed. He did not dare to look at Gu Zhibai's expectant eyes, and said to himself: "If a person encounters such a thing, as long as he can escape the sanction of the law, I will pretend not to know. It's a pity. , you are not a human being..."
