Chapter 159 The Sword Spirit's Wish 7



As he finished speaking, Zhou Lang slowly vanished in front of Ah Li.

Ahri also heard him say, "Thank you."

That guqin has always been in the pavilion by the Broken Bridge. For hundreds of years, no one has been able to move it or play it.

Simply because Zhou Lang loved the person who gave him that tenderness in the illusion.

So when Ah Li said she wanted to take the zither, Zhou Lang heard her and agreed.

The guqin, forged with his lifeblood, would naturally suit his wishes.

When Ahri played "Phoenix Seeking Its Mate" on her guqin, Zhou Lang appeared.

Zhou Lang always loved listening to the zither, and it was through the zither that he and Hong Gu were able to meet.

While Hong Gu claimed to like him, she secretly plotted with others to kill him and use him.

This ancient zither is the key to unlocking the sealing array at the bottom of the lake, but she has always been unwilling to let him go free.

She knew that if Zhou Lang could simply take the guqin into the water and break the seal, he would be free. Instead, she stayed by the guqin.

To put it nicely, it's about seeing something that reminds you of someone; to put it bluntly, isn't she also just looking after the guqin?

Because the hairpin in Hong Gu's hair was the weapon that killed Zhou Lang. It had a talisman on it, which made Zhou Lang fearful and prevented him from getting close.

Therefore, for over a hundred years, Zhou Lang has never come up.

The illusion created by Hong Gu is unclear whether it was to deceive herself or others.

In the illusion she created, she was a victim, not only being forced but also unable to speak out.

But Zhou Lang was so gentle, and even in the end, he chose to let her go.

At this moment, Huo Ling leaned close to Ah Li and whispered, "Then, when I couldn't control myself in the illusion, was it because Zhou Yu possessed me?"

Ahri turned around and glared at him, saying, "Why bring up something you shouldn't talk about? Now that the broken bridge issue is resolved, we don't have to worry about strange events happening here anymore."

Because of the illusion created by Hong Gu, many people who went in couldn't tell who they were when they came out.

Some people were even killed in the illusion, and three days later they floated on the lake as mummies.

This incident has left those who constantly preach about believing in science and not superstition somewhat confused about the reason.

The only option is to let those with the skills to solve this problem take action.

This place has also become a testing point for every reclusive family.

However, whether they broke the illusion or dived underwater, they did not see Hong Gu and Zhou Lang.

And that guqin (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument), it's not like no one has ever seen it.

But those people just couldn't lift it or make a sound.

Therefore, when the examiner saw Huo Ling pick up the guqin, he gave her a meaningful look.

Finally, Hong Gu was sealed in a soul-locking bag by the examiner.

The examiner said to Huo Ling, "Not bad, young master of the fire-type clan."

Huo Ling touched the red thread on her wrist; Ah Li was already gone.

The examiners also looked at the red line on Huo Ling's wrist. They had only seen Huo Ling, Hong Gu, and Zhou Lang.

Because they were far apart, no one could hear their conversation.

Huo Ling remembered that there was a reward for solving the broken bridge incident, so he asked the examiner, "What's the reward?"

"They said they could give a reward of 100,000 yuan."

The examiner added, "However, it needs to be reported first, then approved, and finally implemented. But don't worry, the money will be directly deposited into your account."

Huo Ling was thinking that once the money arrived, she would definitely treat Ah Li to a movie, go shopping, and have hot pot together.

In Ahri's world, she certainly hadn't seen any of these things.

Of course, you can also take Ahri to the amusement park.

While Huo Ling was enthusiastically making plans, Ah Li was following Wan Jiaoyang in searching for a way back.

Ah Li watched as Wan Jiaoyang kept calculating with his hands, occasionally changing his position, but without any results.

Wan Jiaoyang withdrew his hand, frowning in confusion.

"Did the outcome not go well, Master?"

Ahri tilted her head and asked.

Wan Jiaoyang nodded slightly and said, "It's really not good. We still have no clue."

"oh."

Ah Li responded and sat down on the sofa, turning on the TV.

The TV show was about the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather.

Wan Jiaoyang sat down as well, then looked at Ah Li and said, "You seem to be very familiar with these things."

Ahri held the remote control in her hand, her expression unchanged: "I think it's quite simple. When I came back just now, I passed by other people's windows and happened to see them all operating it this way."

On TV, the Third Brother is standing at the entrance of the demon's cave, shouting, "Demon! Give me back my grandfather!"

Ah Li was engrossed in watching TV when Wan Jiaoyang suddenly spoke up again: "How do you know the truth about the broken bridge?"

Ahri said dismissively, "Oh, Master, don't disturb me while I'm watching TV. It was in the illusion that a lot of memories that didn't belong to me suddenly appeared in my mind, and that's when I found out."

Wan Jiaoyang scrutinized Ah Li. The divine sword was still the divine sword, but the sword spirit felt unfamiliar to him.

And then there was that red rope. Wan Jiaoyang only asked Ah Li to help, but Ah Li took out the red rope and tied it to Huo Ling's hand.

The red string is like the red thread of the Old Man Under the Moon; once tied together, it's a symbiotic relationship—one prospers, all prosper; one suffers, all suffer.

Of course, the most important function is invisibility; ordinary people simply cannot detect Ahri.

Suddenly, Wan Jiaoyang looked outside and said, "Huo Ling is in trouble."

Ah Li was a beat slow to react. By the time she looked at Wan Jiaoyang, she found that Wan Jiaoyang had already rushed to save Huo Ling.

On the other side, Huo Ling was suddenly blocked by Huo Xiaolong and his men.
