Soaring the Heavens

Main Text Chapter 6 Scholar (Part 2)

This basin seemed to be the home of the underworld mantises. It was densely packed with mantises of all sizes, and the sound of the piano led Miao Yi to avoid a large number of underworld mantises.

Obviously, if Miao Yi had not heard the sound of the piano and had barged in by mistake, he would have been eaten by the mantis without even the bones.

When the sound of the piano stopped, he came to a lake shrouded in cold smoke. The water was calm. On the shore of the lake, a mountain peak sat, and the sound of the piano suddenly disappeared.

The sound of the piano did stop, because the 'scholar' had stopped playing the piano and stood on the edge of the cliff, with the simple blue cloak back on his shoulders.

Miao Yi didn't see him, but he had seen Miao Yi looking around cautiously at the foot of the mountain, confused.

The scholar clasped his hands and looked down at Miao Yi at the bottom of the mountain. He opened his lips and said calmly: "Those who are not blessed are not lucky. If you enter this mortal world without dying, you will return empty-handed. It is difficult to approach this twenty-mile basin. It is difficult for those who are not wise and brave to approach this place." Twenty Miles Basin: Those who are not determined will return in a hurry after half a month. How can they meet me? Those who enter this Twenty Miles Basin and are not connected with my mind will hardly know my voice. Trespassing will not lead to a good end. A hundred thousand years have passed by with a snap of a finger, and now that a true friend has arrived, why waste your time and come up to see me quickly?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the fog in the distance immediately rolled in. The densely packed mantises that could be vaguely seen from the top of the mountain were obscured by the thick fog that quickly drifted around.

Miao Yi at the bottom of the mountain didn't hear what he said. He was still looking around cautiously. Where had the sound of the piano gone?

Seeing that there were artificial stone steps at the foot of the mountain, which seemed to lead to the mountain, I approached with a butcher knife and stepped up slowly.

As soon as I stepped onto the top of the mountain, I was immediately attracted by a huge boulder. On the boulder was a sculpture of a graceful and graceful woman flying into the sky. Although it was a statue, the sculpture was expressive and beautiful, making people unable to help but take a second look.

‘The path of the immortal hero has not yet been exhausted, and the sea of ​​blood has no limit to the bone boat! ’

Two large blood-red characters like narration are placed next to the woman's statue. They are full of blood and extraordinary momentum. I don't know what they mean.

The appearance of the flying woman is very attractive, but Miao Yi, who is here, is not in the mood to appreciate it slowly. He holds the butcher knife tightly and continues to move forward.

After walking for more than ten meters, a figure standing on the edge of the cliff with his hands behind his back made Miao Yi stop. He held a butcher's knife a little nervously and asked, "Are you playing the piano?"

The 'scholar' turned around slowly and his eyes fell on Miao Yi, examining him.

As soon as he saw the other person's appearance, Miao Yi was stunned for a moment. He had never seen such a good-looking man before. His temperament was like sitting on a cloud, and the gaze that looked at him was like looking down at an ordinary person from the nine heavens.

"Immortal?" Miao Yi asked nervously.

The scholar shook his head.

Miao Yi asked again: "Monster?"

The scholar shook his head again.

Miao Yi suddenly raised his hand and slapped his forehead. He couldn't help but laugh. He found that he was thinking too much. No matter it was gods or monsters, no one except mortals could enter the world at this time. Otherwise, the immortals outside would have come in long ago. .

Miao Yi smiled and said, "Uncle, you are so good-looking."

The scholar nodded slightly and smiled, seemingly saying thank you for the compliment.

Seeing that the scholar was not carrying a weapon, Miao Yi felt relieved and asked, "Were you playing the piano just now?"

"I was attracted by the sound of the piano." The scholar finally spoke, his tone was unusually calm, and he waved his hand and pointed at the guqin on the stone platform not far away, "I saw only the guqin, but no people. I don't know who is playing the guqin."

"Uh..." Miao Yi's eyes fell on the stone platform, and he was a little speechless. If it weren't for the other party's instructions, he really didn't notice that such a huge guy turned out to be Qin. When he got closer, he immediately felt a thrilling feeling.

It's not because of the huge size of the piano, but it's because there's an inexplicable sense of depression when you get close to it, and it seems like you'll be frightened even if you look at it twice.

"Is this really Qin?" Miao Yi couldn't help but ask.

The scholar quietly replied: "It should be."

"Such a big Qin..." Miao Yi's eyes suddenly flashed, and he didn't know what he thought of. He looked around and saw no one else, suddenly opened his arms and hugged Qin, and lay on the Qin, humming for a long time, his face turned red from holding it in.

The scholar looked surprised, wondering what he was doing?

After looking at it for a long time, I probably understood it and couldn't help but smile.

He was right. Miao Yi had already guessed that this was a treasure, because it was impossible for a mortal to use such a big piano, so he started to think about snatching it. Seeing that there was no one else around, the scholar didn't look like he could fight, and There was no weapon in his hand, but he had a knife in his hand, so he wanted to take the opportunity to grab the guqin and run away.

However, what made Miao Yi depressed was that even with all his strength, he could not shake the guqin at all. It was as heavy as a mountain.

Really unable to do it, he finally let go of Guqin and said with a smile: "I'll try his weight, it's quite heavy... What's your surname, uncle?"

"Just call me Lao Bai." The scholar smiled, looked at the guqin and asked, "Do you want to take it out?"

Miao Yi said contemptuously: "Don't you want to take it out?"

The scholar said: "I can't move it either."

Miao Yi tried to ask: "Are you going to go back and find someone to carry you out with you?"

The scholar shook his head slightly and said, "I suggest you not to talk about this piano when you go out, otherwise it will only bring trouble to yourself."

Miao Yi expressed doubt: "Why?"

The scholar chuckled and said: "You came here all the way, didn't you realize it was dangerous? If the immortals outside knew about it, even if they sent people to help you carry you out, they would definitely let you in to lead the way. So I won't mention this after I go out. Just Qin, because I don’t want to cause trouble for myself.”

Miao Yi thought for a moment and had to admit that what the other party said made sense. Not to mention the date when the formation would be closed, he had already experienced the degree of danger here. It was lucky to be able to get here. If he was forced to come in and lead the way by the immortal, it would be a question whether he could return alive.

After thinking it through, he could only put the matter of the piano aside for the time being. Looking at the scholar's clean and spotless body, he asked suspiciously: "Did you really not see who was playing the piano just now?"

"If you mean just now, I just plucked it twice." The scholar walked to the piano, stretched out his fingers and plucked the strings, and the sound of the piano like flowing water sounded again.

When the sound of the piano sounded, Miao Yi trembled all over, and instantly seemed to be possessed by a demon, staring blankly at the slightly trembling strings.

"You are so young, why do you come here to take risks?" The scholar asked lightly without turning his head, staring at his five fingers playing the piano.

Miao Yi was suddenly like a dream. Whatever people asked, he answered honestly and stupidly.

After asking everything he wanted to know, the scholar hooked the strings with his index finger, and Miao Yi immediately woke up from his trance.

Before he could react, the scholar had already spread out a string of pendants in his palm and handed it to him.

A dark green bead was strung on a rope, which seemed to be a necklace hanging around the neck. It looked simple, but pleasing to the eye.

Miao Yi was stunned and said, "Give it to me?"
