Chapter 6 The Scholar (II)
This basin seemed to be the lair of the Underworld Mantis, almost everywhere was densely populated with Underworld Mantises of all sizes, and the sound of the zither brought Miao Yi just in time to avoid a large number of Underworld Mantises.
Obviously, if Miao Yi hadn't heard the sound of the zither and came here, if he had mistakenly entered, he would have long been eaten by the Underworld Mantis to the point where there weren't even any bones left.
When the sound of the zither stopped, he arrived beside a lake shrouded in cold smoke, the lake was calm, and on the shore of the lake, a mountain peak was situated, and the sound of the zither was suddenly gone.
The sound of the zither had indeed stopped, because the "Scholar" had stopped playing the zither, and stood at the edge of the cliff, with the simple green cloak back on his shoulders.
Miao Yi did not see him, but he had already seen Miao Yi at the foot of the mountain who was looking around with a foggy head.
The scholar looks down at Miao Yi at the bottom of the mountain with his arms folded and opens his lips and calmly says: "No luck for those who are not blessed, into this 10,000 feet of red dust will not die but also return empty-handed, it is difficult to get close to this 20-mile basin; non-intelligent and courageous, it is difficult to get close to this 20-mile basin; non-willful and determined, halfway through the period of one month here will be returned in a hurry, what is the virtue of seeing me? Into this 20-mile basin non-compatible with my heart can hardly know my voice, trespassing will not end well. One hundred thousand years have gone by in a snap of the fingers, the soulmate has come, why waste time, why don't you quickly come up to see me!"
As soon as the words fell, the mist in the distance immediately rolled in, standing on top of the mountain and looking down on the dense Underworld Mantis that could be vaguely seen was covered up by the fog that quickly drifted in the surrounding area.
Miao Yi at the bottom of the mountain did not hear what he said, still cautiously looking around, where did the qin go?
Seeing the foot of the mountain actually have artificial excavated stone steps, seems to lead to the mountain, carrying a pig-killing knife approached, a foot slowly stepped on.
Once stepped on the top of the mountain, was immediately attracted by a huge stone, the huge stone carved with a light Shu arm delicate flying woman, although it is a statue, but the carving of the God, beautiful and touching, let a person can not help but look at two more eyes.
"Immortal warriors have a path of destiny yet to be exhausted, the sea of blood has no end of white bone boats!"
Two vertical as if narrator's blood red big words beside the woman's carved statue, blood gas, extraordinary momentum, don't know what to care about the metaphor.
Flying woman's appearance is very attractive, but in this place Miao Yi now does not have the pleasure to slowly appreciate, gripping the pig knife continue to walk forward.
Forward a dozen meters, a negative hand standing on the cliff side of the back so that Miao Yi's footsteps stopped, a little nervous to carry the pig knife and asked: "Are you playing the zither?"
The "scholar" slowly turned around, his gaze landing on Miao Yi's body in scrutiny.
Upon seeing the other party's appearance, Miao Yi is instantly dumbfounded, he has never seen such a good looking man, that temperament is like sitting on a cloud, and the gaze that scrutinizes him is like looking down on the mundane people above the nine heavens.
"Immortal?" Miao Yi asked nervously.
The scholar shook his head.
Miao Yi asked again, "Demon?"
The scholar shook his head again.
Miao Yi suddenly raises his hand and slaps his forehead, unable to hold back his laughter, realizing that he has overthought things a bit, whether it is an immortal or a demon, at this time, the ten thousand feet of red dust is not accessible to anyone except mortals, otherwise those immortals outside would have long come in.
Miao Yi smiled, "Uncle, you are so good looking."
The scholar slightly nodded his head and smiled, seemingly saying thanks for the compliment.
Seeing that the scholar did not have a weapon on him, Miao Yi was slightly relieved and asked, "Were you the one playing the zither just now?"
"I was attracted by the sound of the zither." The scholar finally spoke, his tone unusually calm, waving his hand and pointing to the ancient zither on the stone platform not far away, "I only saw the zither, I didn't see anyone, I don't know who was playing the zither."
"Uh ......" Miao Yi's gaze fell on the stone platform, a little speechless, if not the other party pointed out, he really did not notice that so huge guy was actually a zither, approached to take a look, immediately had a kind of thrilling feeling.
Not because the qin is huge, but as soon as he got close to this qin there was an inexplicable feeling of oppression, it seemed that even if he looked at it two more times his heart jumped.
"Is this really a qin?" Miao Yi could not help but ask.
The scholar quietly returned, "It should be."
"Such a big piano ......" Miao Yi suddenly flashed his eyes, I do not know what to think of, around to see what no one else, suddenly opened his arms to hold the piano, lying on the piano humming for a long time, hold a face red.
The scholar was surprised, do not know what he was doing?
After watching for a long time, he probably understood and could not help but smile.
He is not wrong, Miao Yi has guessed that this is a treasure, because mortals can not use such a big piano, so he started to snatch the mind, see no one else around, the scholar does not look like he can fight, and there is no weapon in his hand, but he has a knife in his hand, so he wants to take advantage of the opportunity to snatch this ancient qin and then run away.
However, what makes Miao Yi depressed is that, using all his strength, it is also difficult to shake this ancient qin, heavy as a mountain.
Really can not engage in, and finally scattered hands to release the ancient qin, laughed: "I try his weight, but also quite heavy ...... uncle your name?"
"Call me old white is good." The scholar smiled and looked at the ancient qin and asked, "You want to take it out?"
Miao Yi despised, "Don't you want to take it out?"
The scholar said, "I can't move it either."
Miao Yi tried to ask, "Ready to go back and find someone to carry it out together?"
The scholar shook his head slightly and said, "I suggest that you go out and not say anything about this zither, otherwise you will only bring trouble to yourself."
Miao Yi expressed his skepticism, "Why?"
The scholar laughed softly, "You came all the way here, didn't you realize that it's dangerous? If the Immortals outside knew about it, even if they sent someone to help carry you out, they would definitely let you in to lead the way. That's why I won't mention this zither when I go out, because I don't want to get myself into trouble."
Miao Yi thought for a moment and had to admit that what the other party said made sense, not to mention the date that the big formation was about to be closed, the degree of danger in here he had already comprehended, to be able to walk here had already been considered a fluke, and if the Immortals were forced to come in and lead the way, whether or not he could go back alive would indeed be a problem.
Figured out can only temporarily put the qin thing aside, looking at the scholar clean and spotless body suspiciously said: "you just really did not see who is playing the qin?"
"If you mean just now, I did casually tease it twice just now." The scholar walked over to the zither and stretched out his fingers to fiddle with the strings, and the tinkling sound of the zither like flowing water resounded once again.
At the same time as the zither sound resounded, Miao Yi trembled, instantly as if he was bewitched, looking at the slightly trembling zither strings in a demented manner.
"You're young, why did you come here to risk your life?" The scholar asked indifferently without turning his head back, staring at his five fingers playing the zither.
Miao Yi, on the other hand, was dazed as if in a dream, what did the person ask, and he was dumbfounded to answer honestly.
After asking himself what he wanted to know clearly, the scholar's index finger hooked the strings of the zither, and Miao Yi immediately woke up from his trance.
Before he could react to what was going on, the scholar had already spread out a string of jewelry in his palm and sent it to him.
On a string was a dark green bead, which appeared to be a necklace hung around the neck, simple to look at, but pleasing to the eye.
Miao Yi was stunned and said, "For me?"
