The room was dark. There was sunlight outside, but it could not shine because this place was like a prison cell, a prison cell that did not see the light of day. She was free, but his heart seemed to be completely locked and numb.
All of a sudden, a golden light appeared. It was as dazzling as the moon that had escaped from the dark clouds in the pitch-black night sky.
The golden light gradually lit up the surroundings. Beside it sat a person, a veiled girl. Although her face couldn't be seen clearly, her noble charm and temperament destined her extraordinary fate. Her name was Ji Ru Qianlong.
The golden light illuminated the surroundings, and of course, it also illuminated the object that was emitting the golden light.
On the outside, it looked like an ordinary music box. On the surface of the box, there were words from the Chu Country: "12 Illusion Laws, Five Tune Non-Music, Heavenly Rhyme of Bliss, Myriad Demonic Music.”After the pavilion-style building was built according to the five tones and twelve rhythms, the internal gears turned, and the tower-shaped pavilion rose layer by layer. The pavilion had five floors, and each floor corresponded to the five tones of Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu respectively (the first floor was the Yu tune). There were twelve eaves on each floor, and there was a window under each eaves. Each window was marked with the name of a melody, which corresponded to the Twelve Tones.
This was the Illusionary Sound Treasure Box, the ultimate treasure of the Yin-Yang School. Logically speaking, the Illusory Sound Box could play countless pieces of music, but every time Ji Ru Qianlong opened it, she would hear the same song. At this moment, the song was played again. The spiritual and graceful music calmed people's hearts. The light rhythm seemed to be constructing a beautiful scroll floating in the sky, traveling beyond the sky and not eating the mortal world. But at the same time, it was emitting a faint sadness. This sadness was spreading, as if it wanted to stretch out between heaven and earth, telling the sorrow of the world.
Unknowingly, Ji Ruqian Long's eyes were filled with tears, but she knew that there was no sadness on her face. Why was that? Could it be that without sorrow, one could shed tears?
She did not know why she was crying. He seemed to have forgotten the meaning of tears.
Behind him, someone was walking slowly. There were no footsteps, but Ji Ruqian Long knew that someone was coming. It was a familiar feeling. It seemed that she could only feel her existence when he was surrounded by this feeling.
She had a thin face and a graceful figure. Her gorgeous attire did not lose its elegance. Her blurred eyes always revealed a sense of mystery. She was the Moon Goddess. She habitually caressed Ji Ruqian Long's hair, her movements delicate and gentle. Her every movement was filled with love, just like a mother.
At this moment, Ji Ruqian Long felt his heart beating. Was this person her mother? Why did it feel so familiar and warm!
"Qian Long, what are you thinking about?" Yueshen asked.”
" The melody from the Illusory Sound Box is so beautiful," Ji Ruqian Long said." But I feel like I've heard it a long time ago. Why can't I remember anything from the past?"”
" Don't think about things you can't remember," said Moon Goddess." It'll only add to your troubles if you think too much."”
" I don't want to think about it either," Ji Ruqian Long said." But every time I hear this moving melody, I don't feel sad. Instead, I cry every time."”
" Don't cry," Moon Goddess said." People like us won't and can't cry." Do you know?"
"I know, don't worry!" Ji Ruqian Long said. I won't do it again."
" That's right," said the Moon Goddess." The entrance-into-God Ceremony will begin in a few days. You must prepare well. The person who can obtain Lord Donghuang's recognition will definitely be above everyone else."”
"I understand," Ji Ruqian Long said.”
Above everyone else? Was this important? Ji Ruqian Long didn't know what all of this was for. She didn't know what she wanted. She didn't have any desires or thoughts. She just followed Yueshen's orders and did what she had to do.
This kind of life was like a walking corpse. That cute and beautiful Gao Yue seemed to have died.
Tianming and the others had been in the ventilation canal for nearly four hours. Now, they only felt their backs ache, as if they were crippled. If they were to walk for four hours, it would not be a problem at all. However, if they were to bend over and crawl for four hours, the feeling would be completely different.
Now they were going to Xiang Ziyao's residence because they couldn't find a second safe place to hide on this mountain, so they could only trust Xiang Ziyao. However, the ventilation canal was almost pitch-black. Occasionally, there would be a glimmer of light when they touched the ventilation window, so they basically crawled around in the darkness without a clear direction. However, Xiang Ziyao was the most familiar with this place, so she was the one walking in front.
Perhaps it was because they had walked for too long, Tianming could not stand it anymore and said,"Do you know the way or not? Do you know how long you've been gone?”
"I don't know him."
"Then why are you still leading us blindly?"”
"It's fun!" Xiang Ziyao laughed. Don't you think this is very interesting? It was like searching for treasure in a cave. It was very mysterious.”After walking for so long, the Young Feather Stone Orchid seemed to be tired, but this Xiang Zi Yao was still full of energy, not like a delicate little girl at all. Was this the benefit of eating too much meat?
"I only feel that my knees and waist are hurting. You should have had enough fun by now!" Tianming said angrily.”
Xiang Ziyao said,"We'll find a place with a window and go down." I don't know the way in this ventilation canal, but I definitely know the way down.”
"If we go down, we'll be dead for sure!" Tianming said.”
"Don't worry, as long as you don't make a sound, I guarantee that no one will see you."”
They should not have believed the words of such a young lady, but they had no choice but to believe it at this moment. Shaoyu had been on guard against Xiang Ziyao. He hoped that this little girl was not lying to them, otherwise…
Shi Lan had her guard up against Xiang Zi Yao, but she didn't doubt her ability because she felt that Xiang Zi Yao had a mysterious power.
