Chapter 1315 Voice of the Heart
Zhou Wen stared at Zhang Yuzhi in a daze. Zhang Yuzhi was still the same Zhang Yuzhi. In his pupils, Zhang Yuzhi was still playing the guzheng, closing his eyes and immersed in his own singing.
But for some reason, Zhou Wen's mind suddenly popped up an image of a little girl curled up in the dark. He could even hear the little girl's trembling and sad voice.
"Since Heaven has destined me to walk in darkness... I shall trade my own darkness for the light of all... This is the fate I deserve... They all considered me a friend... They would rather die than let me come to any harm... And yet I killed them... I am so filthy... I am unworthy of embracing the light... Zhang Yuzhi... You deserved to die... What is there to be afraid of?"
The little girl raised her head, tears streaming down her cheeks. She looked forward and saw a ray of light in the darkness in front of her.
Zhou Wen was slightly stunned. The light actually came from a figure, emitting light like an angel, but without wings or angel rings. It was just a human figure, and that appearance was exactly the same as Zhou Wen.
The little girl looked at the figure, as if she wanted to reach out and grab something, but her hand was only halfway out, and she timidly withdrew it slowly.
"People like me...will only bring misfortune to my friends...will only hurt them...I don't deserve to have friends..." The little girl looked at the figure reluctantly, slowly withdrew her hands, and finally buried her head in her arms, curled up there and sobbed softly.
The only figure with a ray of light was also shattered in the darkness, and the world instantly returned to the darkness of despair.
At this time, Zhang Yuzhi had finished singing the song, and she opened her eyes. The image of the little girl in Zhou Wen's mind also disappeared, as if everything just now was just a dream.
The various sounds that had just disappeared returned to Zhou Wen's ears, making Zhou Wen fall into the noisy ocean of sound again.
"How was my singing?" Zhang Yuzhi asked Zhou Wen.
Perhaps because the sea of sound had just arrived and had not yet completely occupied Zhou Wen's hearing, Zhou Wen heard this sentence clearly.
"I didn't hear it clearly." Zhou Wen shook his head.
Strangely enough, he did hear Zhang Yuzhi's singing, and he heard it quite clearly, without being affected by the sea of sound, but he could not remember what she sang. All he remembered in his mind was the image and voice of the little girl.
"You are such an idiot who doesn't know how to appreciate art. It makes me angry just looking at you. Go away, go away, and don't let me see you again." Zhang Yuzhi looked very unhappy. After she said that, she stood up and went back to her own small building.
"I'm sorry, Yuzhi has been spoiled by us and is a little willful, but she means no harm, so don't blame her." Zhang Chunqiu said to Zhou Wen.
"I know." Zhou Wen was surprised to find that his chances of accurately capturing sounds had increased a lot.
"I'll take you there." Zhang Chunqiu said.
Zhou Wen hesitated for a moment, then looked at Zhang Chunqiu and asked, "Is everything really okay over at the Demon Tomb?"
"Don't you think the weather has been much cooler these past two days?" Zhang Chunqiu did not give a direct answer.
Zhou Wen understood what he meant. The scorching hot weather before had gradually returned to normal in the past few days, which seemed to indicate that the Demon Tomb should be under control.
If it were in the past, Zhou Wen wouldn't have any bad thoughts and would have thought that this matter should be over. However, when he recalled the scene of the little girl he had seen before, he felt that something was wrong.
"The scene I saw was not an illusion. If my feeling is correct, it should be the ability brought to me by Di Ting. According to legend, Di Ting can hear the sounds of heaven and earth and tell the good and evil in people's hearts. In other words, it has the ability to hear the voice of the heart. What I heard just now was very likely the voice in Zhang Yuzhi's heart..." Zhou Wen guessed secretly in his heart.
But for some reason, Zhou Wen could hear Zhang Yuzhi's inner voice just now, but now he couldn't hear it. He tried, but couldn't hear the inner voices of Zhang Chunqiu and others. This made Zhou Wen doubt whether his judgment was really correct. Maybe it was just an illusion.
"My hearing has not fully recovered yet. Can I rest here for two more days and leave after it recovers?" Zhou Wen looked at Zhang Chunqiu and asked.
"I also want you to stay a few more days, but Yuzhi said she doesn't want to see you. If she sees you again, she will definitely get angry." Zhang Chunqiu said.
"What did you say?" Zhou Wen didn't hear what Zhang Chunqiu said.
"I also want you to stay a few more days..." Zhang Chunqiu had to repeat it again.
But he had barely finished his words when Zhou Wen said, "You can't stay too long. I have things to do when I get back. A few days really won't do. Just stay for two more days."
"No, I mean Yuzhi doesn't want to see you. If she sees that you haven't left, she will get angry again..." Zhang Chunqiu said.
"What? Are you going to lose your temper? I really have something else to do, so I can't stay too long. Three days at most, no more..." Zhou Wen said, pulling Zhang Chunqiu out, saying as he walked, "I didn't expect you to be so hospitable, Brother Zhang. If I had known this, I would have come to see you more often... You're such a nice person..."
Zhang Chunqiu looked at Zhou Wen, not knowing whether he really couldn't hear.
"What's going on? Why hasn't Zhou Wen left yet?" After Zhang Chunqiu separated from Zhou Wen, Zhang Xiao came over and asked.
"His hearing has not recovered yet, so he wants to stay for two or three more days," Zhang Chunqiu replied.
"That won't do. The day after tomorrow is..." Zhang Xiao stopped talking.
"It's okay, just ignore him." Zhang Chunqiu said.
"My uncles and aunts are worried that Zhou Wen will interfere with their work. If anything goes wrong, the Zhang family will never have peace. It's better for him to leave early," said Zhang Xiao.
"I don't have the ability to drive him away, and I don't think he will interfere with any important work. If you think there is something wrong with him, just go and drive him away yourself." Zhang Chunqiu said, then turned and left.
Zhang Xiao looked at the yard where Zhou Wen lived, but did not dare to go there. He could only go back and tell his elders what Zhang Chunqiu said.
The elders of the Zhang family were also worried. If it was an ordinary person, the Zhang family would have driven him away if they wanted to, but the person living in the Zhang family now was Zhou Wen.
The Zhang family had some understanding of Zhou Wen's strength. If Zhou Wen refused to leave, they would not dare to use force to kick him out.
"Uncle, I think Zhou Wen might just want to improve his hearing before leaving. It should have nothing to do with our Zhang family's affairs." When Zhang's uncle asked Zhang Xiao to drive Zhou Wen away, Zhang Xiao hesitated and said.
Even Zhang Chunqiu couldn't drive Zhou Wen away, so what could he use to drive Zhou Wen away?
"Forget it, it won't cause any trouble. Just let him stay there." In the end, it was Zhang Siyou who spoke up, and the matter came to nothing.
