Look In the Mirror

  Chapter 601 Guqin and Ding

  Ji Xu immediately put on a smile when he heard the words: "Hahaha, Master Li Chen is right!"

   "I'm impatient, I'm impatient~"

   After finishing speaking, he touched the Prisoner Cauldron, and the frenzy in his eyes became more intense.

  Li Chen thought to himself, seeing that the time was ripe, he leaned closer to the cauldron as if listening attentively.

   After a while, he said: "E'e is like Mount Tai."

   "The flow is like a river~"

  Ji Xu's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "It's "High Mountain and Flowing Water", "High Mountain and Flowing Water"!"

   "It's as tall as Mount Tai."

   "The flow is like a river~"

   "Bo Ya Ziqi, a bosom friend is hard to find!"

  While talking, Ji Xu has already summoned Guqin and is eager to try it.

  Li Chen sighed softly: "To perform this song, you must be still while moving, on the side of the water."

   "Stay in motion, on the water side?"

   Ji Xu immediately thought of the pool in the center of Huanhualou.

   "Hahaha, very good very good."

  In Ji Xu's heart, this arrangement is God's will.

   But Li Chen sneered in his heart.

  Before, Zhuge Wei revealed the word 'water' to herself.

  Nine times out of ten, it refers to the large pool in the middle of Huanhualou.

   But if you want to get close to the pool, you must first pass through the enchantment barrier in the middle.

  That's why Li Chen deliberately went to great lengths to guide Ji Xu with rhythm.

   Sure enough, Ji Xu was overjoyed and asked Cao Chengmu to remove the barrier.

   After Cao Chengmu hesitated for a while, he could only ask Huanhualou to remove the barrier.

  The monks only felt a flash in front of their eyes.

  The enchantment originally covering the middle has disappeared.

   Ji Xu put away the prisoner Niu Ding and took the lead, and went directly to the pool.

   "Stay in motion, on the water side."

   "There is no better place to fit in!"

  Ji Xu was in a good mood. After a chuckle, he hugged the Guqin and sat cross-legged.

  Ding Dong~

  The slender fingertips slid across, the strings trembled, and the faint sound echoed. The Huanhualou, which was extremely noisy in the past, is now like a child discovering a new world.

  It sat quietly beside the pool, turning into an obsessed bystander.

  Ji Xu devoted himself wholeheartedly to the guqin in front of him, with a calm expression, as if he had changed into a different person.

   Once upon a time, he was a carefree child.

  Since coming to this world, I haven't seen my mother.

  The court ladies said that his mother was thrown into limbo.

  What is a cold palace?

  Is it cold in the palace?

  Ji Xu was troubled by this problem for a long time when she was a child.

   Because of this, his mother is a stranger to him.

  Of course my father did too.

  Better than a stranger, barely a passerby.

  In short, they are far inferior to Caihe, the court lady beside them.

  Cai He has been taking care of Ji Xu since he was born.

  So Ji Xu has a special dependence on her.

  In my memory, Caihe always combs her hair into two round buns and wraps them with two rose-red ribbons.

  Whenever she ran, the ribbons on the bun danced lightly behind her.

  That is probably the most beautiful memory of Ji Xu's childhood.

  Caihe likes rhythm, she often hides behind the stone pillar and secretly listens to Luo Fei playing the piano.

  Sometimes I couldn't help but pluck the strings in the void.

  Ji Xu thought it was funny.

  But unknowingly, I also fell in love with the rhythm.

   Wait until he grows up and starts to attend elementary school in the palace. ("Zhou Li": Entering elementary school at the age of eight, the Bao family taught the sons of the country, first with the six books.")

  He doesn't pay much attention to Liushu and the like, but he has a soft spot for rhythm.

   Whenever he learned a new score, he would return to his residence and teach it to Caihe.

  "High Mountains and Flowing Water", "Pingsha Falling Geese", "Guangling San", "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms"...

  Everything is never tired, everything is fun.

   During that time, Ji Xu seemed to be living in a dream.

  Happiness, satisfaction.

   However, there is always a time to wake up from a dream.

   That day, the wind and the sun were beautiful.

  He and Cai He played the piano together as usual.

   Hearts are connected, high mountains and flowing waters.

  Inexplicable feelings filled Ji Xu's heart.

  The sound of ding dong brought a lot of life to that desolate courtyard.

  It's just... there is an extra passerby at the gate of the small courtyard.

  On this day, the father, who hadn't seen Ji Xu for a long time, suddenly appeared in the small courtyard for an unprecedented time.

  The sun fell on Caihe's body, giving off a faint divine light.

  Lively, agile, and beautiful.

   Shocked to heaven.

  Father and son are always alike, including aesthetics.

  So the next day, Cai He was picked up by the **** in the palace.

   Ji Xu didn't want her to go, but wanted her to stay by his side and play the piano.

  But Cai He said: "The destiny is hard to break."

  Destiny is inevitable?

  The young Ji Xu finally has a third concern-'destiny'.

  The first two are 'Lenggong' and 'Zhiyin' respectively.

  Since that day, the small courtyard has never heard the sound of the piano again.

  Later, I heard from the new lady-in-waiting that 'Caihe' was called 'Concubine Zhu'.

   She became a woman of the "destiny".

  At that moment, something seemed to break in Ji Xu's heart.

   Are the strings of ‘Zhiyin’?

  Ji Xu didn't know.

   All he knew was that a seed called 'Destiny' had been planted in his heart.

  …

  In Huanhualou, Ji Xu was playing the guqin with all his concentration.

  He seems to have merged with the guqin in front of him, exuding an inexplicable look.

  It was only then that Li Chen understood why Ji Xu said that he had become refreshed.

   It turned out that it wasn't because of the Prisoner Cauldron, but the ordinary guqin in his arms.

  Maybe he didn't even realize it himself.

  The priceless Prisoner Cauldron is actually not as important as that Guqin.

  The sound of the piano curled up, and even the surrounding Moon Shadow Guards were mesmerized by it.

   It's just that Li Chen didn't have the mood to continue admiring it, so he came to the side of the prisoner cauldron instead.

   Moon Shadow Guard glanced at him, but didn't doubt it.

  Seeing this, Lichen clasped his hands together, and the monks understood, and began to approach the pool.

  Finally, the monks saw Li Chen nodding his head, and immediately ran towards the pool in unison!

   Plop! Plop!

  At this time, the Moon Shadow Guard reacted: "Curse!"

"Certainly!"

   Young monk Ying Hui, who was walking last, was a step behind.

  When he was caught by the 'curse', he was still half a step away from the pool.

  Seeing this, Li Chen directly kicked him into the water.

  But I heard a voice: "Definitely!"

  With just one word, Li Chen felt as if he was shrouded in a shadow.

  The muscles all over the body were frozen, unable to move an inch.

   Fortunately, the true qi in his body was not affected, so he secretly used the formula of "Inviting the Moon and the Sky Shadow".

  The next moment, Li Chen was overjoyed.

   It worked.

  Cao Chengmu saw that he was still trying to break free, so he couldn't help laughing: "You are overestimating your capabilities!"

   "No one can break free from the 'curse' of my Moon Studios!"

   Before he finished speaking, the figure in front of him suddenly disappeared.

   When Li Chen reappeared, he was already standing next to the Prisoner Cauldron.

  Cao Chengmu's face turned pale with shock, and he reacted this time.

   Lichen smiled at the corner of his mouth, and without giving the other party time at all, he directly picked up the 'Prisoner Cauldron' and jumped into the pool.

"boom!"

  At this time, a piercing piano sound suddenly sounded.

   But Ji Xu finally woke up from the sound of the piano.

   "Dare!"

  He threw away the guqin and turned into a ray of lightning to attack Lichen.

  Finally...he still chose ‘Mandate of Heaven’.
