Chapter 445: Deep Mansion (Thirty-three)
He squinted at the man outside the door and saw that the man seemed to have nails under his feet. He refused to leave and did not come to get the piano himself. He was very stubborn!
Yu Huo was tired and really didn't want to play this low-level and boring game with the other party. He reached out and hugged the guqin, then walked out of the room as if he had accepted his fate.
At this moment, Yuan's expression was as if he had won the whole world. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and even his steps became lighter.
Yu Huo really didn't understand him.
This person seemed... a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand times more moody than himself!
He frowned, hugged the guqin and walked half a step behind the other person, glancing at Yuan's profile with a puzzled look.
The sunlight fell on the other person's white earlobe, and the thin layer of skin seemed to become transparent, pink and soft.
He couldn't help but feel itchy, and his fingertips subconsciously ran across the body of the piano, and then touched the irregular patterns on the bottom of the piano.
The romantic thoughts in Yu Huo's mind were easily destroyed. With curiosity, he slowly rubbed it and found out that it should be two tiny words.
But because the engraving was too small, he couldn't figure out what the two words meant.
Yu Huo walked and guessed, his eyes passing over the man's beautiful face which had no expression, and his heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat.
He wanted to turn the guqin over to take a look, but he was afraid that it might be an important clue and the man beside him would discover it and stop him.
Don't doubt it, this bastard has evil intentions, and his face is full of the words "I'm looking for trouble"! Especially since the two of them are now in a state that seems more like enemies than friends.
God knows what weird things he will do!
Just as Yu Huo was secretly complaining, Yuan suddenly glanced at him coldly and said calmly: "You are scolding me."
He spoke with such confidence that if Yu Huo had not been so resolute, he would have thought that he had spoken his heart out loud.
"No!"
Yu Huo reacted quickly and denied it.
Yuan slowed down his pace and said, "That means you are planning something bad."
Yu Huo rolled his eyes: "Your true form is a roundworm?"
Yuan twitched his crimson lips, and instantly smiled brightly: "It seems that I guessed right. What on earth are you planning? Why don't you tell me, and I'll give you some advice?"
Yu Huo lowered his eyes and didn't look at his face, which was more gorgeous than a ghost. He snorted with a fake smile: "Don't you know how to guess? Keep guessing..."
Yuan shrugged and was about to say something when he suddenly heard his wife's voice asking a question from the yard.
"Is Master Wenqin here?"
Yuan glanced towards the courtyard, but gave up. He walked into the courtyard filled with all kinds of miscellaneous items from the warehouse and said meaningfully, "Madam, you are in such a good mood. The courtyard is in such a mess, and you still have the mood to listen to music?"
The lady's face froze after being confronted. She cast a suspicious look on Yuan's face and said to herself, "Master, please sit down."
Upon seeing this, Yu Huo tactfully ran forward and moved the guqin off the table, and placed the guqin in his arms on the stone table. During this time, he seized the opportunity to turn the body of the guqin over, and vaguely saw the word "female"?
Yu Huo wanted to take a closer look, but Ke Yuan had already walked behind him.
He could only give up, put the guqin away, and pointed at the previous guqin and asked, "Madam, where should I put this guqin?"
The lady glanced at him, a brief flash of pain in her eyes, and then said, "Put it back in the warehouse."
Yu Huo responded and walked back to the warehouse carrying the guqin that had been wiped clean.
During the process, he saw clearly the words on his wife's guqin - Ruyin.
Is this Qin's name?
Yu Huo felt that these two words sounded familiar and couldn't help but repeat them in his mouth.
Like sound, like sound...like cause?
Liu Ruyin!
He paused and thought carefully.
Just now in the courtyard, the lady had said that this was Mr. Ding's piano, and that he was quite good at playing it, but in the past three years he had fallen in love with someone else and refused to play for her.
So the lady's feelings for the zither player are to express her feelings?
Or to put it bluntly, is she using the musician as a substitute?
After Yu Huo figured it out, he continued walking towards the warehouse, but his expression was still a little distracted, as if he had overlooked something.
By the way, there are also two words engraved on the bottom of the luthier’s guitar.
Female...like...
Such a coincidence?
Could it be that the words "Ruyin" are also written on the zither played by the zither master?
Yu Huo stood at the door of the warehouse, his mind in a mess.
He pulled the head of the 'headless male corpse' out of Pan Quan's coffin, but the man refused to admit that he was Pan Quan and instead claimed to be a musician.
I thought this guy was trying to cheat on Master Ding in an unconventional way, but now he found the words "Ruyin" on the back of the guqin played by the musician.
If the musician really had the intention of revenge, would he have secretly engraved these two words on the back of the guitar?
Besides, that is clearly the name of Mr. Ding’s guqin!
So...'Headless Male Corpse', who the hell are you?
Yu Huo was now eager to find an answer. Just as he was hurriedly trying to take a shortcut back to the well to find the other party, he suddenly smelled a pungent smoke.
This smell, it's like someone is burning something?
Yu Huo looked to the left and then to the right, thinking of the three words "headless male corpse" that he had been saying from beginning to end, so he decisively and quietly approached the source of the smoke.
Because the Liu residence had not been properly maintained, it always looked bare in winter. Without the cover of green plants, anything done against the frosty white background was clearly visible.
In addition to this secluded path, there are rugged rocks and rockery on both sides, which makes it convenient for doing some sneaky things.
Thinking this, Yu Huo quietly lay down in front of the gap in the rockery, and looked through the hole at the person hiding in the inner wall of the rockery on the other side.
The other person was squatting in front of the brazier with his back to him. The burning flames caused the air near the brazier to begin to distort slightly.
Smoke floats from it and slowly rises into the air. When blown by the cold wind, the strong smell will be blown over by the wind, making people feel choked and want to cry.
Yu Huo quickly moved his eyes away from the hole in the rockery.
He stroked his chin and thought to himself, judging from the back, she looked like a woman, and her red and green clothing style matched that of the mysterious Aunt Pan.
Just as Yu Huo was thinking, a sobbing sound came from behind the rockery.
"Pan Lang, it's all my fault, wuwuwu..."
"If I hadn't forced you to study, and listened to you and waited two years before taking the imperial examination, I wouldn't have let you end up with your head and body separated..."
"Also, when you went to the capital to take the exam, the heavy snow collapsed our house, and Mom and Dad went with you. It's all my fault~"
"Pan Lang, please don't blame me for selling all my jewelry and belongings to buy two thin coffins for your parents, okay?"
"...Oh right, there's something I need to tell you. I've been robbed by that Ding guy and taken to this Liu residence. I originally wanted to hang myself and follow you, but after coming here, I realized that the feng shui of this house... is really good~
Pan Lang, do you still remember the Taoist priest we met when we were young?"
