Seven Strings in Dreams

Wu Na was the first to notice Meng Xianyu's mood changes.

Wu Na held Meng Xianyu's hand and said, "Xianyu, so your last name is Meng."

Meng Xianyu: "Yes!"

Meng Xianyu answered with a forced smile.

Shanhu: "I have read the letter. It seems that you are returning by boat, and want to go back to Shuitian Academy on Xianling Island. Fairy Yueyun is a brilliant person in Shuitian Academy. If she really died because of this, I am afraid that I will be sorry to this senior if I deal with it so hastily."

Linlang: "Have you carefully searched to see if there is anything on you that can prove your identity?"

Meng Xianyu: "I was in a panic and didn't look closely"

Wu Na: “I really didn’t think that much at the time”

Linlang: "What else is in this box?"

Meng Xianyu: "A few pieces of clothing, two jade pendants, an ancient zither and music scores"

Linlang: "Can you let me see?"

Meng Xianyu: “Yes.”

Linlang: "Don't worry, since we know that you are here by accident and not for any ulterior motives, our boss will definitely help you leave safely."

Meng Xianyu: "Take a look first."

Meng Xianyu opened the box and took out the things inside.

Meng Xianyu took a few women's clothes and shook them. There was nothing inside. The two jade pendants were of top quality. Meng Xianyu held the zither and the music sheet in her arms and placed them on her legs.

Coral: "Look at your posture, you look very good at it. If I didn't know you, I would think you can do it!"

Wu Na: "Xianyu can indeed play"

Coral: "Real or fake? Can't you tell?"

Meng Xianyu: "I just learned some when I was a child. If you want to listen, I can play a short piece for you."

Coral: "Think about it, play it and listen to it"

Linlang: “Please”

Meng Xianyu adjusted her sitting position, put the music score back into the box, then closed her eyes, lightly plucked the strings with her delicate hands, and played the song "Ten Sides of Ambush" with both hands.

The sound of the piano was ups and downs, and it was exciting, as if thousands of troops were coming to meet. The people who heard the piano were overwhelmed with emotion, as if they were deep in the army, and the scene of the two armies fighting seemed to be right in front of them.

Not to mention people like Linlang and Shanhu, even Wu Na was deeply attracted by the sound of the piano. After the song ended, she couldn't calm down for a long time.

Meng Xianyu adjusted her breathing and opened her eyes. She felt as if she was being led away by the guqin, as if the guqin had not yet exhausted its meaning and she was just a tool.

"Good, great! Great!" A hearty laugh came. The four people sitting around the fire quickly looked towards the cave entrance.

It turned out to be Elder Gele, and the protectors Weiqi and Yujue.

Shanhu stood up quickly and said, "It's great that you met. Come in and take a rest."

Elder Gelu leaned forward and entered, followed by the two guardians.

Geller: "Little girl, your music is very different. I can't stand those boring music. Your music is different! It's really comfortable to listen to! Just based on your ability to play such music, I believe you are a broad-minded person. You are definitely not a sinister and cunning person."

Yu Jue: "It is really amazing. I wonder where the girl learned this piece of music."

Meng Xianyu: "This is a piece of music from my hometown. It would sound better if played on the pipa."

Ge Le: "Really? Pipa is also OK? Can you play it, little girl?"

Meng Xianyu: “I know some simple ones.”

Geller: “What’s the name of this piece?”

Meng Xianyu: "House of Flying Daggers"

Geller: "Ambush from all sides?"

Meng Xianyu: “That’s right.”

Geller: "Can you talk about it again? I only heard the second half."

Meng Xianyu: "Elder, I don't know why, but I feel weak after playing this piece. I'm afraid it will be difficult to play it again. Can you play it again tomorrow?"

Ge Le: "It's all right. I don't like it in the first place. Jia Yu likes it, can he listen to it too?"

Meng Xianyu: "I was just about to thank the two elders for taking care of Yixi. If the elders like it, I will practice more and play more songs for them when I have the chance."

Geller: "Let me make it clear first, I like this kind of heroic ones. I don't want the kind that makes people fall asleep."

Meng Xianyu: “I understand.”

Shanhu: "Elder Gelu, where did you go just now?"

Ge Le: "Hey, I hunted a deer. Then I lost my way, so I sat there waiting for you to find me. Then the guardian Wei Qi came. The two of us went down the mountain, sold the deer for money, and then bought a coffin."

Meng Xianyu: "Coffin?"

Shanhu: "Where did you sell the goods? Where did you buy them? Has anyone found you?"

Geller: "Don't worry about it. The things are outside. See if you can use them."

Meng Xianyu: "Thank you, Elder"

Meng Xianyu thought that Elder Gele had always been suspicious of her, but she didn't expect him to think of these things. He must be a person who is hard on the outside but soft on the inside.

Geller: "If there is nothing wrong, bury the person quickly!"

Meng Xianyu put down the piano and Wu Na helped her stand up.

Yu Jue went forward and moved the fish basket containing the corpse outside the cave, placing it right next to the coffin.

Linlang briefly explained everyone's previous speculations. Meng Xianyu quickly sorted out the things in the box.

Afterwards, Wu Na, Meng Xianyu and Shanhu simply tidied up the corpse, and then Yu Jue placed it in the coffin.

Linlang carried the fishing basket and Meng Xianyu's box. Yujue and Weiqi carried the coffin to the place Yujue had found before.

This place is relatively high, with a good view of the surroundings. If it is daytime, the scenery must be very beautiful. There is no need to worry about water accumulation when it rains. It is not a steep place. It is a good place. Several men worked quickly and dug a pit to bury the woman who was suspected to be Fairy Yueyun. As for the tombstone, Shanhu used his inner force to cut a flat piece of wood and wrote "Tomb of Yao Yueyun". Although it is a bit simple, it is also a kind gesture from everyone.

Everything was ready. Meng Xianyu and Wu Na both knelt in front of the tomb and kowtowed three times to the elder.

Meng Xianyu: "Senior, Xianyu will go back to Xianling later. If there is a chance, I will give the three letters to your relatives. As for this ancient zither, Xianyu likes it very much. If it is found out that it has an owner, Xianyu will return it. Please rest assured, senior."

Wu Na: "Senior, I am Wu Na. Today, I really wronged you by letting you stay in the fish basket. Please don't blame me. If there is a chance in the future, Xianyu and I will come to see you again."

Geller: "Okay, it's getting late, let's go back first!"

Shanhu stepped forward to help Wu Na and Meng Xianyu up, and they hurried back to the villa.

The next morning, it was already noon and the villa was still quiet.

Meng Xianyu slept until she woke up naturally, packed up and came out, only to find that the whole villa was quiet.

Meng Xianyu: "What's going on? Where are all the people?"

Meng Xianyu first knocked on Wu Na's door next door.

Meng Xianyu: "Wu Na, are you there?"

Wu Na rubbed her eyes and came out to open the door.

Wu Na: "Good morning, Xianyu"

Meng Xianyu: “It’s getting late.”

Wu Na blushed for a moment. She hadn’t been able to sleep since she came back yesterday. She tossed and turned until dawn and finally fell asleep in the morning.

Meng Xianyu: "Then go back and sleep for a while."

Wu Na: "No, I'm going to wash up first, wait for me, you go around first"

Meng Xianyu: “Okay”

Meng Xianyu did a set of radio gymnastics in the yard before Wu Na came out of the room.

Wu Na: "Xianyu, what are you doing?"

Meng Xianyu: "I exercise in my hometown"

Wu Na: "Where are we going now?"

Meng Xianyu: "Can you help me fix my hair first?"

Wu Na: "How?"

Meng Xianyu: "Just hang your hair up and put it into a ponytail"

Wu Na: “Ponytail?”

Meng Xianyu: "My hair is too long, just help me tie the rope"

Meng Xianyu handed Wu Na a red headband.

Wu Na: "Then I'll try it. Tell me if it hurts."

Meng Xianyu: "Just do it, it's okay, I'm not that squeamish"

While Wu Na was combing Meng Xianyu's hair carefully, she asked, "How did you sleep last night?"

Meng Xianyu: “Not bad”

Wu Na: "What do you want to do later? If not, how about we go see Ali first and then Leah?"

Meng Xianyu: "I'm fine, but don't you find it strange? Why is it so quiet in this villa? Where are they?"

Wu Na: "If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have noticed. It's almost 9am now and no one has come to call us. If you hadn't called me, I might have slept until the afternoon."

Meng Xianyu: "Where is Yixi?"

Wu Na: "By the way, where is Yeshi? Do you think Yeshi went to Ali?"

Meng Xianyu: "Then let's go find Yixi first!"

Wu Na: "That's right. It's done. Take a look and see if it looks like this."

Meng Xianyu went to Wu Na's room, looked at herself in the mirror, and felt quite energetic.

Meng Xianyu: "Wuna, do I have to wear this veil all the time?"

Wu Na: “Take it with you first.”

Meng Xianyu blew a breath mischievously. She was not used to wearing a mask and scarf. She was used to showing her neck in the winter in the Northeast, so she couldn't stand covering her face every day.

Wu Na and Meng Xianyu came to Yixi's room, which was empty, and went to the yard where Wu Lan was.

There was not a single person on the road, and if you didn't know, you would think it was an empty villa.

It was only when I arrived at Monk's yard that I finally saw some familiar figures.

When Wu Na and Meng Xianyu came, Yixi was playing with Monk and Muren.

Wulan was wrapped tightly and sat on a chair with two maids standing beside her.

Gele and Jiayu were drinking tea and playing chess.

The yard and outside the yard are simply two different worlds.

Yixi was the first to see Wu Na and Meng Xianyu. He abandoned Muren and Monk and ran towards Wu Na and Meng Xianyu.

Yixi: "Sister Wu Na! Sister Xian Yu! You are finally here!"

Wu Na quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off Yixi's forehead.

Meng Xianyu: "What is Xiao Yixi playing so happily?"

Yixi: "Aji and Uncle Meng took Yixi to catch rabbits and caught a nest of baby rabbits"

Meng Xianyu: "A nest? So amazing!"

Wu Na: "Why are you sweating so much and your clothes are dirty?"

Meng Xianyu: "The white and tender little bun turned into a dirty bun"

Yixi: "What is a dirty bun?"

Meng Xianyu: "A delicious one! Take me to see your little rabbit."

Yixi: "Okay, but they are naughty and run around everywhere. Uncle Meng said that if I can catch them, I won't eat them."

Meng Xianyu: "Sister Xianyu supports you. Rabbits are so cute, how can you eat them?"

Geller: "What are you talking about? Grilled rabbit is delicious, why can't we eat it?"

Meng Xianyu: "If you want to eat them, go catch them yourself. Don't worry about these ones from Yixi."

Geller: "You girl!"
