Evening, General Manor.
On the bed in the hall sat a burly man. He was drinking as if he was waiting for something. Beside him was a huge sword. He was Ji Ruye, the Great General of Han Country. His power was so great that he did not even care about the Han King. No one in Han dared to disobey Ji Wuye.
At this moment, a woman walked in. She was wearing a long golden dress. There were two orange-pink ribbons hanging on the front of her pink waist, and a short white ribbon hanging on the back. Her long hair draped behind her back, making her look beautiful.
Looking at the woman who walked in, Ji Ruye said," I heard that your zither skills are outstanding! A piece of music could attract the sight of thousands of birds gathering. Tonight, I want to see it with my own eyes.
The person who walked into the hall was Nongyu from the Sparrow Pavilion.
He bowed to Ji Ruye and replied,"It is my honor to play a song for you.”
Ji Ruye nodded. At the same time, a servant brought over a zither and placed it on the table in front of Nongyu. "Just use that zither to play a song for me!”The servant brought over a broken zither, and it was the one that Nongyu had used in the Sparrow Pavilion.
At this moment, Mo Ya also saw the zither on the beam, and a trace of uneasiness flashed across his heart.
He bowed again and said,"Yes." Nongyu went forward and sat in front of the zither. She played the zither with both hands and was ready to start playing. The ink crow on the roof suddenly saw a white feather. Catching the feather, he turned around and saw Bai Feng looking down at the jade below. Mo Ya left the roof and went down to the window. He looked into the hall through the screen, and Bai Feng followed him down.
Ji Ruye was surprised to see Nongyu put her hand on the zither.”
Nongyu answered calmly," There are two types of music. One is the music of the strings, and the other is the music of the heartstrings. This is the song I played for the general.”
Ji Ruye was even more confused when he heard Nongyu's answer.""Song of Heartstrings?"
Nongyu continued to answer," Everyone can hear the tune played by the strings. The tune played by the heartstrings could only be heard by those who were passionate.”After hearing Nongyu's words, the black crow and the white phoenix outside the window had different reactions.
"Alright, I'd like to hear your so-called heartstrings.”Ji Ruye agreed.
As Nongyu's ten fingers began to dance on the zither, the white phoenix outside the window suddenly became very excited. It calmed down with Nongyu's zither music and listened attentively.
Along with Nongyu's performance, many crows flew over from outside the hall. Mo Ya looked at the crows that were gathering more and more, then turned to look at Bai Feng with a focused expression."Could it be that he really heard the song of heartstrings?”
However, what no one noticed was that there was a man and a woman standing on the supposed empty Sparrow Pavilion. The man frowned and listened attentively, as if there was something he did not understand. As for the woman, she only looked indifferently at the two people outside the window and the Nongyu who was playing in the room.
At this moment, Bai Feng recalled something Nongyu had once said to him. There was also a song about the most special kind of bird. It was the leader of all birds, but on its path of life, it had to experience destruction again and again. When it went through hardships and struggled to break through the desperate situation of death, it would obtain a new life.
Ji Ruye threw the wine glass on the ground, unable to hide the anger on his face. At this moment, Nongyu stopped playing and looked up at Ji Ruye." General, is the music still in your ears?"”
"Are you tired of living by playing tricks on me?”Ji Ruye suddenly stood up, picked up the big sword beside him, and rushed to Nongyu, as if he wanted to kill her.
Outside the window, the white phoenix saw that Nongyu was in danger and wanted to rush in, but was stopped by Mo Ya." Ji Ruye's martial arts are far above ours. Don't act rashly."”
Nongyu looked at Ji Ruye, who was holding a big sword and pointing it at her, but she did not panic." General, you gave me this broken string zither, so I naturally want to listen to extraordinary music. How dare I fool you? If you don't believe me, you can look around the hall."”
Ji Ruye looked up and saw that the beams in the hall were already filled with crows.
Nongyu slowly stood up." General, you have already seen the strange sight of thousands of birds gathering. Do you still think that Nongyu is fooling you?”
Ji Ruye retracted his sword and looked at the crows in the hall. He was a little surprised. Could it be that these birds could really hear some heartstrings? "It is said that crows are the messengers of death. Why did you attract these crows that represent death when you played the song with your heart?”
The white phoenix outside the window was also puzzled. How could Nongyu play such a heart-warming song?”
Nongyu replied,"General, have you ever heard of the king of white birds?" It will rise from the ashes and live a more glorious life. This is the meaning of my song. This was the surprise that Nongyu had given the general.”
Ji Ruye raised his head and laughed after hearing that. He stabbed his sword into the ground, kicked open the table, and walked to Nongyu's side." Previously, someone said that you were different from ordinary women. Now that I've seen you today, it's true. Good, I like women like you."”As he spoke, he walked forward and was about to pick up Nongyu and turn around to walk towards the bed.
Nongyu and the black crows and white phoenixes outside the window looked strangely at Ji Ruye, who was doing strange actions. They did not know what was happening. Suddenly, Nongyu and Mo Ya seemed to have thought of something and revealed expressions of understanding. Only Bai Feng was confused.
Nongyu knew that this might be the man's help to her. Without hesitation, she pulled out the special copper hairpin on her head and stabbed it into Ji Ruye's back.
Looking at Nongyu who had suddenly attacked, the white phoenix was shocked and wanted to rush in, but Mo Ya held it down tightly. Mo Ya knew that the lord hiding in the Sparrow Pavilion had made a move. Now, before receiving instructions, it was best not to get involved!
With a soft sound, the copper hairpin pierced Ji Ruye's armor with the full force of Nongyu. Nongyu was overjoyed, thinking that she had succeeded. However, she immediately realized that something was wrong. Before she could react, Ji Ruye suddenly erupted his internal energy and sent Nongyu flying. "Beauty is like a blade. It's not your turn to kill me!”
Nongyu fell to the ground and suffered internal injuries. Her heart was filled with bitterness. I didn't expect him to take the risk (uh-huh? Risky?) The opportunity he had fought for himself was wasted just like that. He had underestimated Ji Ruye's strength. The specially made copper thorn could penetrate his layers of armor, but it could not pierce through his body of flesh and blood. The depth of this person's training suit was too terrifying. Fortunately, he had only attacked secretly and should not have been discovered by Ji Ruye.
Ji Ruye was also slightly injured, but compared to the injuries on his body, he was more concerned about the fact that he had clearly held Nongyu in his arms just now, but she had stabbed him from the back. This meant that he had just been hallucinating! Who was it? Looking at Nongyu who was lying on the ground, he asked," Who sent you to kill me?”
"You owe a lot of blood, and everyone has the right to kill you.”Because of her internal injuries, Nongyu spat out a few mouthfuls of blood.
Ji Ruye did not believe that. There were many people who wanted to kill me, but not many had the guts to do so. Who is your master? Open your mouth, Han Fei is still…"
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw blood flowing out of the corner of Nongyu's mouth. He secretly cried out,"Not good, take the poison." Then, he rushed over and reached out to pinch Nongyu's crotch.
However, before Ji Ruye could touch Nongyu, a strong force suddenly came and knocked him back. A blissful smile appeared on Nongyu's lips, but she was a little worried in her heart.
Outside the window, Mo Ya suddenly heard a voice,"Nongyu's show is over. It's your turn next!"”
After receiving the instructions, Mo Ya released the hand holding Bai Feng and allowed Bai Feng to rush in.
Ji Ruye was suddenly sent flying, but he didn't see anyone. He couldn't help but shout angrily," You want to protect her, right? Then I'll kill her first and see if you'll show up!"”As he spoke, he picked up the sword that was stuck in the ground and swung it at Nongyu.
As a figure flashed past, Ji Ruye saw that Nongyu was no longer in front of him. He turned around and saw Bai Feng standing there with Nongyu in her arms.”He was a little surprised and uncertain. No, Bai Feng's strength was not that strong. He was not the person who attacked just now.”
Nongyu looked at the white phoenix hugging her and wanted to struggle away, but she had no strength left. She could only stay in the white phoenix's arms, hoping that he would not misunderstand! " You didn't leave." He asked Bai Feng.
Bai Feng looked at Nongyu, who was in her arms." I said it before. I don't believe a single word you said in the Sparrow Pavilion!" Stop talking. I'm here to take you away.”
Nongyu lowered her eyes. Besides, I won't go with you."
Bai Feng was shocked and turned to look at Ji Ruye." I'm here to take her away."”His voice was firm.
Ji Ruye raised his saber. The only thing you can do is to die with her!”After saying that, he charged at the white phoenix and swung his sword to attack.
The white phoenix kept dodging with Nongyu, but it was gradually forced into a desperate situation by Ji Ruye. Ji Ruye pointed his sword at Bai Feng and laughed." Then I'll grant your wish. Let's die together." Just as he was about to attack, Mo Ya rushed out and exchanged a few blows with Ji Ruye before being forced back by him.
Bai Feng looked at Mo Ya with worry.”
Mo Ya turned around and looked at Bai Feng." Kid, you should worry about yourself."”
Looking at Mo Ya who had stood up, he said,"You actually dare to appear in front of me. I think you know the consequences of betraying me!"”
Mo Ya denied Ji Ruye's words." I didn't betray the general. I'm only here to exchange my life for his."”At this moment, Mo Ya did not know what the person in the dark was thinking. Right now, he could only protect Bai Feng and Nongyu. He believed that since that person cared so much about Nongyu, he would definitely not let Nongyu die like this.
