Chapter 238: Sound of Nature of the Ancient Zither
Chapter 238: Sound of Nature of the Ancient Zither
Qingyi Town, the days here were very peaceful.
On weekdays...
The people who lived here generally basked in the sun, chatted with their friends, and a day would be gone just like that.
But at the moment, that kind of peaceful life seemed to be broken instantly.
Among them, in front of the door of an earthen house, an old man who was taking a nap against the sun suddenly opened his eyes.
Then he poked his companion next to him.
"Hey, old guy... have you heard that strange sound just now? And this sound, I seem to have heard it before, but I can't remember it, what about you?"
The old man next to him looked a little dull, "I seem to have heard it somewhere before too."
In addition to them...
The whole villagers were talking.
"Have you heard anything?"
"I heard it!"
"So familiar..."
"Yeah, where did we hear this sound?"
"I don't know."
"The location of the sound source seems to be that legendary place."
When someone said this, a cold wind blew, and the whole town became silent at this moment.
About that legend...
All the people living in this town had heard of it.
"Could it be... that person is back?"
Someone spoke.
"Impossible, that legend was still a matter of hundreds of years ago. Although it was passed down by the ancestors, it is impossible to verify it. Moreover, we went to that house before and we didn't see any ancient zither at all. It was very empty." Someone retorted immediately, but his voice trembled as he spoke.
Although the legend was a legend.
But it had existed for hundreds of years...
It had long been ingrained in everyone's heart. No matter whether it was true or not, as long as this legend was mentioned, it would naturally affect a group of people.
"The location of the sound source is indeed that house. Let's go and take a look!"
"Ok!"
"Look at it first."
"Then go together."
In the small town, the old people are ready to move.
Quickly, they gathered together with some young children and walked in the direction of the earthen house.
...
In front of the earthen house, Ye Bei's eyes were indifferent.
But the old man standing beside him and Wang Ying looked completely different.
Especially the elderly...
His legs trembled terribly.
"It's this voice... it can't be wrong, it's exactly the same as the voice hundreds of years ago!" When speaking, his voice tremored, and his eyes were enlarged.
Next to him, Wang Ying looked puzzled, "Grandpa, you're not a hundred years old this year, right? How do you know that this is the sound hundreds of years ago? Also, this voice is really strange, but it sounds nice."
"Little Ying, you don't understand." The old man took a deep breath.
Then he put his eyes on Ye Bei...
Those eyes flickered constantly.
As for Ye Bei...
When he heard the sound from there, there was no slight fluctuation on his face.
In contrast, he took a quiet step and moved forward slowly.
Click!
When he walked to the front door of the earthen house, he just glanced at the lock on it, then the lock clicked and opened automatically.
Creak!
Ye Bei did not delay.
When the lock was opened, he continued forward.
Immediately after...
The rusty wooden door creaked and gradually opened.
A burst of dust also followed.
As the light shone into the lobby of this earthen house, a wooden chair, a table, and an ancient zither could be seen right in it.
The sound of nature came from that ancient zither that no one played.
"It's not bad here." Seeing this scene, Ye Bei opened his mouth and spoke softly.
After his voice fell, that sound of nature came to an abrupt stop timely.
The surroundings of the earth hut suddenly became extremely silent.
Hearing Ye Bei's voice, the old man suddenly recovered his senses. Looking at Ye Bei, he slightly bent over, "Sir, it's great that you are satisfied... This house originally belonged to an ancient person."
"Well, if nothing happens, you can go back." Ye Bei stood in front of the door, did not go in directly, but looked at the scenery inside and spoke again.
"Okay!" The old man nodded. Then his gaze inadvertently walked around Ye Bei, through the gap of the wooden door, he said a word softly, but his eyes opened wider.
In his view, a brand new ancient zither was placed in it.
The tables and seats were spotlessly clean and seemed to be occupied all the time.
"Sir, it really is you!" The old man didn't leave directly, but when he turned around, he opened his mouth and said a word indistinctly.
Ye Bei said nothing but he moved forward at this moment.
When Ye Bei stepped into the earthen house, the wooden door closed with a creak.
The old man stood in front of the door, dumbfounded.
However, at this time, the villagers in the small town were swarming. Because of the large number of people, the entire barren ground seemed to shake.
"What happened to this earthen house?" Someone shouted from a distance.
"I seemed to hear a voice coming from here just now. Is that legend true?" Someone looked excited.
"Look, the door lock of the earthen house was unlocked, someone must have entered. Who is it?" There were also people with round eyes, their voices trembling, and their faces flushed when they spoke.
In less than ten seconds, the residents who rushed over completely enclosed the earthen house.
But as time went by, these people quickly became quiet again, but their eyes widened and their mouths opened...
The sight they saw before their eyes were really too incredible to be described in words.
...
In the earthen house.
After Ye Bei closed the door, a candle hung on the wall immediately lit, illuminating the whole place.
"It's really intentional. He even moved my former residence hundreds of years ago to this place, and even the legend has been preserved..." Entering the lobby, Ye Bei murmured softly.
Yes
This earthen house was the former residence where Ye Bei lived in seclusion in a small village.
And the ancient zither in the lobby was just what Ye Bei used to compose songs when he was bored.
After probably understanding what was going on, Ye Bei looked at this familiar place, and his interest was piqued slightly. He continued to take a step forward, and in that split second, the majestic vitality began to be released from the soles of Ye Bei's feet.
Immediately after...
This dilapidated and collapsed house began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.
That ancient zither was still that brand new.
But the collapsed wall automatically returned to its original state.
Even the barren grass in front of this earthen house was rapidly changing.
And naturally, this scene was clearly seen by the group of residents who came from the town.
"God, this is a miracle!"
"The legend is true."
"Unbelievable, our ancestors did not lie to us."
Outside the earthen house, the residents quickly recovered from the silence, exclaiming constantly, the scene they saw before them completely subverted their cognition.
