Looking up from the chaos, I don’t know how many days and nights have passed.
The sky was still bright, but it was too dazzling. Mu Wan struggled to get up, and dead leaves fell from her head and clothes. This seems to be a forest, and the leaves also fall from those trees. Although it has entered the cold winter, when you look up, the crowns of successive trees are still intertwined with gold and green, and are lush and green.
There were several gray birds standing on the branches, tilting their heads to look at her curiously.
For now... this is the human world, right?
There are not many fallen leaves on the ground, they are soft and there is only a faint muffled sound when you step on them. She could barely stand on this soft earth, and seemed to sink in with every step she took. It could also be that she was too weak - she didn't know how many days had passed, but she wasn't sleepy or hungry, but she was cold, maybe she had been unconscious for too long.
It's so quiet here, no other people's sounds. She tried calling Shanhai and Dailuan's names, but she opened her mouth and no sound came out. She held on to the tree and coughed for a long time. Finally, she felt that there was some saliva in her mouth and she was able to make normal sounds.
There is no way to continue like this. We must find a town or village quickly, as long as there are living people.
She rested against the tree trunk for a while, feeling a little refreshed. This forest is dense or not, sparse or sparse. When she raised her head, she couldn't find the sun for a long time, and she didn't know what time it was. She quickly sighed again, thinking so what if she didn't know? Now I don’t even know which day it will be.
I don’t know where the other two went.
Mu Wan cheered up and walked forward for a while. Although I feel a little weak in my heart, my body seems to be fine. She also checked the umbrella. The workmanship was really meticulous, and there was almost no damage. It was just that her sleeves were torn.
At this time, the Tengu should be called. This not only saves the energy of traveling, but also makes it easier to find crowded places from high places. After she planned this, she found that somehow she couldn't summon the Tengu. She was so anxious now, cold sweat broke out on her head, and ten thousand possibilities flashed through her mind. This is indeed the human world, right? Even if it's not in the human world, the shikigami should still be able to be summoned. Or is it that the power of the spiritual veins is too strong, stripping away the spiritual power from oneself? What can I do? Can it be restored?
Her mood was very confused, and as she walked, she became more and more irritable.
Through the trees, Mu Wan vaguely saw something glowing in the distance. That must be the water source. Anyway, go over and drink some water to moisten your throat, then wash your face to wake up. After making this plan, she walked in that direction.
There was a faint sound of a piano, which was like an auditory hallucination. At the same time, the breath of a living creature appeared.
There should be someone there.
Her spiritual power was probably indeed weakened. In the past, at this level, she could definitely tell whether the other person was a human or a demon. If she had seen him before, she would also be able to recognize him at once. But now, she only felt that there was someone in front of her - before the sparkling light, behind the scattered trees, there was someone there. She couldn't care too much, she just wanted to see a living creature besides herself, so she quickened her pace.
etc……
Gradually she felt a little uneasy. Although the breath was not that clear, she was familiar with this instinctive resistance. Although she was a little nervous, she didn't stop, she just slowed down slightly and acted more cautiously.
There is indeed a figure in Chi Bian. But it was too far away for her to see clearly. The man didn't seem to notice her. He still turned his back to her and faced the calm pond, motionless.
She stepped closer and finally saw the man's back clearly.
Her long black hair was as dark as the night, as if it had swallowed up all the light in the world, blending into the equally dark bathrobe. Large areas of bright red color roam freely on it, like burning fire. In the lively sound of the piano, they seem to be dancing to this melody.
Mu Wan suddenly quickened his pace and rushed forward.
It's the evil guy... he can't be wrong!
She didn't regulate her breathing, and her steps were messy. Thinking about it afterwards, she also felt that she was brave enough at that time to rush towards her enemy when she was at her weakest. She didn't know what she was thinking at that time, she just felt casual and it didn't matter. It was when she was at her wits' end and she didn't hesitate to fight him desperately.
Just when she was less than a foot away from the figure, the sound of the piano stopped and the man turned his head.
Mu Wan suddenly stopped holding the umbrella, staggered forward a few steps, his left foot almost caught his right leg, and he almost fell forward in embarrassment. Fortunately, she stopped it in time, otherwise there would have been another misunderstanding.
That's a woman.
The long-haired woman was also very surprised when she saw her. Her red lips were slightly opened, but her eyes were wide open, and she didn't say a word for a long time. So why not Mu Wan? She looked at the girl awkwardly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Sorry...I made a mistake."
She spoke dryly, her voice so soft that she couldn't hear it.
"Um?"
"I recognized the wrong person." She explained, "Sorry, your back looks like someone I know..."
The woman stared at her blankly for a while, then suddenly chuckled. Mu Wan was a little strange, but it was hard to ask. What's more, her current appearance must be inexplicable. It's already very difficult for the other party not to be scared away by her.
But having said that, this woman is indeed beautiful. Her black hair complements her clean complexion, her lips are red and her teeth are white, and her eyes are bright. The brow bone is perfect for this delicate face. She couldn't tell whether this woman had any light makeup on, she just looked natural. Her smiling face was both soft and aloof, with a very unique temperament that she couldn't find words to describe.
She didn't know how she recognized her as Kuchtsuki-kun, maybe it was just the similar color of her hairstyle and clothes. Looking closely at the eyebrows, she felt they were similar, but not that similar. Come to think of it, Lord Kutsutsuki's face itself is very neutral. If it were really a woman, it would make people look more comfortable. The other person stood up, taller than me, probably on par with Hazuki-kun. Only then did Mu Wan see that there was a lyre in front of her. Under the skylight and in front of the water, the body of the piano is shimmering with fine pearlescent light, perhaps the octuplets are on it. The piano made of gold twinkled like stars in the daytime.
"You're so funny." Her voice was like gurgling warm water, with a dark depth.
"What, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, you scared me." She lifted her hair from her ears, "I didn't know anyone would come to this place."
"Sorry to disturb you playing the piano..."
"It's okay, I'm just playing around, don't worry about it." The woman turned around and hugged the piano to her chest. "I haven't touched the strings for a long time. It's just a whim. It's nothing to disturb. By the way, girl, where did you come from... …What do you call it?”
"I, from...I am a disciple of Xue Yangu,"
"Yes, I can see it." The woman stared at the decoration on her forehead for a second time.
"I am Liangqiu Muwan... You can call me Liangqiu, or Mu Wan, whatever... what do you call me? Do you live near here? Are there any villages around here?"
"Um……"
The woman thought for a while, turned her head and looked at the pond. Mu Wan also looked over. There are many round lotus leaves growing in the water, and some small lotus buds are hidden among them, not yet blooming. No matter how you think about it, it's not the season for blooming now, but weren't the plants at the entrance to the spiritual veins also flourishing?
"Are there...are there six spiritual veins around here?" she asked.
The woman was a little surprised again. Seeing the other party's expression, Mu Wan immediately explained:
"It's just a kind of... Well, let me just say it casually. If you don't know..."
"No." The woman replied, "I still know about the six spiritual veins. But there are none nearby. The nearest one is just an ordinary spiritual vein."
"normal……"
"The kind that can only come and go in the human world."
"Oh...I seem to have an impression."
Mu Wan breathed a sigh of relief. Firstly, she was sure that she was really not unlucky enough to be transported to a strange place. Secondly, even if the master and apprentice were separated from her, at least they would still be in the human world and there wouldn't be any big trouble. The woman turned her head and pointed to the hillside on the other side of the lotus pond, and said to her:
"There is a town there, and I will live there temporarily. If you want to find a place to stay, you can rest for a while. But, Mu Wan, are you alone?"
"Well, for the time being...I got separated from my friends."
"Is that so? That's indeed a bit of a headache. Do you want to wait for them to come, or take a break and find it yourself?"
"I haven't thought about it yet, but... let's rest for a while."
"You should rest. You look very haggard. It seems like you haven't had a good rest."
The woman held her hand and walked with her towards the hillside. Mu Wan's hands were stiff and cold, but hers were warm, perhaps because she had been playing the piano just now. Moreover, her hands were soft, as gentle as if they had no bones, and there seemed to be no calluses. After walking for a while, Mu Wan asked again:
"What's the name of that town?"
"Qinglian Town." The woman replied, "It's a very hidden place. Most people won't find it, except for people who are lost like you... Does it sound a bit like a paradise? If you want to meet up with your friends, it's best to go out. It’s better to look for it.”
"Qinglian Town? I seem to have heard of it... It is said to be the place where Qingnv lives. The green lotus blooms there all year round..."
"You have actually heard of it and know about Qingnv."
"I know. Legend has it that she is the goddess in charge of frost and snow. Every snow in the world is a piece of music for her..."
The woman suddenly stopped and pointed at herself.
"You just asked me what my name is. If I told you that I am Qingnv, would you believe me?"
Mu Wan was stunned by this question. Her thoughts were still on the wide and beautiful lotus pond, and she was a little caught off guard when she suddenly heard what the woman said. She looked at the woman carefully, trying to use her weak strength to perceive. The woman is indeed different, the spiritual power on her body has a faint lotus fragrance, not to mention that she does hold the priceless lyre in her other hand.
"I... believe it, believe it?"
"Pfft-hahahaha..."
The woman laughed again, genuinely happy. Mu Wan didn't understand why she was like this.
"Really? Or no? I'm not sure..."
"Do you believe there is a god in this world?" the person who calls herself Qingnv asked her.
"If I haven't seen it, I don't believe it. Although there are monsters in the world, there should be gods... but I have never seen it with my own eyes. If I really saw it, maybe I would believe it."
"Well, I am, I won't lie to you."
Qingnv said seriously, turned around and walked forward. Mu Wan quickly followed. When the two were walking side by side, Qingnv turned her head again and said to her abruptly:
"You really interesting."
"Really? I... think I'm quite bored."
"No, you're really interesting."
