Chapter 7 Bone Qin (1)
There is a country on the sea called Chuanxiong Kingdom. There are people in the east, called the immortal people. They look like humans, black all over, live long, and never die.
Floating on the vast blue sea, I was holding a parasol of the flower-breaking lees in my hand, looking at the mysterious island from afar, and moving forward slowly.
When I stepped on the soft sand, I saw a dark figure hiding in the forest from a distance. I took off my sunglasses and walked over slowly.
"I have been here for hundreds of years. What's the matter with the Empress?" The figure spoke when I was a few steps away from him.
He has a black skin, black face, and even his teeth are black. A long hair can be seen faintly, swaying lightly in the wind. Without thinking too much, you can also know that he is the legendary immortal.
After walking over and sitting next to him, I couldn't help but smile: "Don't be so polite. It's all this time, calling me a lady is a joke!"
Hearing what I said, he sighed helplessly and said, "Oh, the world has changed, I am the only one who is immortal, and the world has changed!"
"I'm here for this reason!" After dusting off the fine sand on my body, I took out a recorder from my pocket, "Listen!" After that, I came to his ear.
Nodded, he must have closed his eyes!
I tried hard to see clearly, but there was no way. After all, they were so dark that they were integrated: "I want to play!" After that, I pressed the play button.
The amplification of the recorder immediately played a pleasant piece of music. No, it was not just pleasant. This sound made the listener feel full of strength, just like cells were filled with vitality, as if life was ignited.
"Is this?" At the end of the song, the man's voice trembled, "Where did the Empress get this sound?" It seemed that he was so surprised, his expression was very exaggerated.
"Is this the reason for the death of the immortals?" This time I finally saw his face clearly, so dark that it was so dark that it was unprecedented.
Without answering the question, he stood up and greeted me, "If the Empress wants, please follow me!" After that, he walked deep into the forest.
After blowing the broken hair that was dispersed on my forehead, I also stood up and followed his direction.
The Chuanhun Kingdom is located on the island in the sea, and the immortal people grew up in the eastern part of the country. Now that the Chuanhun Kingdom has changed this year, the Chuanhun Kingdom has long disappeared, and it seems that the only one of the immortal people is left.
He traveled very fast. The island was only hundreds of miles away, but the forest was dense, as if it could not even be blown through a slight wind. After walking for a while, it should have been considered as reaching the end of the forest. Some ruins were revealed. The prosperity of the past was beyond recognition. What could be left behind were the fragments of tiles scattered among the green grass. Under the occasional sunlight, it shone with loneliness from time to time.
I have lived in this world for thousands of years, have seen the most beautiful imperial palaces in the world, have met the most beautiful beauty in the world, and have also seen the most inhumane emperors and kings in the world. But all of this cannot resist the passing time. They collapsed in the torrent of time and finally turned into the dust of time, forgotten by the world in the corner of memory.
As I thought about it, I saw the old man stopping from afar and hurriedly chased after him.
"Is this?" I asked in confusion as I looked at the thing in front of me.
Before he could hear his answer, his cry came first: "It's been hundreds of years, I've been chaotic here. What's the point of time? But I'm not going to have much time at this time. I'm afraid that this immortal citizen will be cut off!"
I bent down and reached out to caress the grass growing from the cracks of the rocks on the ground. I was a little surprised. It was obviously a grass, but it was very hard.
"That's the bone grass!" The old man found a big stone and sat down. "The bone grass is twin, breaking out of the stone, and it grows into a plant for thousands of years, and only bears one fruit. It is called the bone qin. It is shaped like a string of a piano, which can be used as a musical music. Its sound is lively and can eliminate diseases and disasters, but it can also charm the mind and nature!" At this point, he paused, as if giving me time to digest these contents. "We immortal people are protecting the bone grass for generations, and it also blesses my immortal people for generations, and they will never die for generations. But now, the bone qin was stolen hundreds of years ago, and the bone grass gradually witheres, and my immortal people are destined to die withered!"
According to legend, bone grass is formed by the two front teeth that fell off when Chiyou and the emperor fought against each other in ancient times. Because of Chiyou's obsession with immortality and the absorption of the essence of heaven and earth, it is not an ordinary thing. The fruit of the fruit is called the bone qin. One planted and raised the other can protect one's life and not die. However, if the bone qin is separated from the root, the bone grass will wither, and the convenience of the blessing will disappear.
However, not many people in this world know about this, how did this bone zither be thrown away?
"Empress, empress!"
"Oh!" I came to my senses after being gently pushed. Seeing that the old man had already squatted beside him, stroking the increasingly dry torso of the bone grass, he said, "Don't worry, as the mother of the earth, I will not watch my people disappear. I will definitely find the bone zither before the bone grass has dried up!"
"I'll thank the Empress for the Immortals!" He was about to fall, and he lowered his body and knelt down.
I reached out to hold him, and I shook my head: "You must protect the bone grass, and be sure to wait for me to come back!" I took out a pill from my pocket and handed it to him, "Powder it into the spring where you irrigate the bone grass to slow down its withering speed!"
"Thank you, Empress!" After he accepted it, he hurriedly ran into the forest, probably to go to the spring.
And I also held up a gust of wind and rushed back tightly.
A few hours later, my soul returned to the store and saw Lin'er gently poking my cheek with her fingernails.
After returning to my body, I calmed down and opened my eyes suddenly: "What are you doing?"
She was so scared that she shook her whole body, and then she took a few steps back and sat down on the ground: "Master, Princess, when will you come back?" She laughed awkwardly, and a flattering expression appeared on her face.
I stood up and gently closed my hair in the mirror behind me. The sunshine on the sea was so terrible. But after two trips back and forth, I felt that I had sunburned me, even though it was just a soul.
"Is this trip rewarding?" Lin'er lying on the counter, casually turned on the TV and asked while adjusting the channel.
"There is no harvest!" I walked into the back hall and took out a bottle of iced flower wine from the refrigerator, opened the plug and took a few sips, "I asked for one!"
"What?" She stopped with her fingers changing the channel. She put down the TV controller in confusion, "Task?"
"Shh!" Without answering her question, I set my eyes on the news that was being played on TV-
"It is said that there were two dead at the scene, twin sisters Lu Lianshuang and Lu Lianxue. The bodies have been handed over to the police for handling. The specific details need to be dissected before making judgments. This station will continue to track and report...!"
After watching TV, Lin'er fiddled with her fingers and said absent-mindedly: "Tell me, let's die. In this society, there are a few people who die every day. If the princess cares about it, he will definitely be exhausted!"
"Twins!" As I said that, I pinched my fingers and my doubts became clearer. "Hey, it seems that I will go there again this night!" I lay lazily on the couch and closed my eyes. Anyway, it was still the night's business, so it would be better to take a break first.
Lin'er felt very beautiful when she heard "going around", so she didn't make a noise. She probably went to open the door when she heard the sound.
Listening quietly to the grunt of the air pump in the fish tank and the gentle sound of the fish waving its tail, my heart was extremely quiet and I fell asleep soon.
I sat up and the old torn bell sitting in the corner of the wall just rang out the twelfth stroke. It was already late at night. At this time, at least there wouldn't be too many people to go out.
Modern cities are indeed becoming increasingly prosperous, but after years of precipitation and constant changes of dynasties, I miss the time when I was not so developed before. People work from sunrise and sunset at night. Every day, life is simple and happy. It is really not as pure as people today.
This time, Lin'er woke up without calling me, rubbed her eyes, and stared in a daze.
I had already changed into a neat black suit, so I threw the other one in my hand into her arms: "Change in clothes, let's go to the crime scene to see if we can solve the case!"
She jumped up happily, and immediately changed her clothes and followed me to leave the store.
After all, this modern Tianjin City is not as good as the old Luoyang City. Some places are still very lively at this time, so I had to pinch the invisibility method to avoid further troubles.
When others could not see it at all, we two shuttled through the crowd, watching people with different appearances pass by, and always felt a sense of loss. When will we see that figure again in the world? Alas, it’s fine to think about it, but hope is always bad!
Soon we arrived at the place where the legal news was broadcast - a villa that had been burned to death by a fire.
With a wave of his hand, we appeared under the orange street lights, and the moonlight made our shadows extremely long.
"Princess, I seem to see a faint black air!" Lin'er stared at a corner of the broken house and looked hard, "Yes, there is really a black air over there. Although it is very few, it is very obvious!" As she said that, she raised her hand and pointed.
Looking in the direction she pointed, I also noticed something strange. Seeing that there was no one around, there was only a night vision camera with a small red light on, facing this direction, I raised it up casually, and a large leaf rose straight up to it, making it tight. I, pointed and twisted my waist and flashed, jumped over the cordon and landed in the place with black gas.
Standing still and looking carefully, I was delighted. The truth is: I can find a place without any effort when I find it!
