Late at night, a light came on in Bai Xi's room.
After washing away the smelly tung oil and stains, the girl finally felt refreshed and put on her pajamas. Her white hair, which had gradually grown longer, was spread over her shoulders, reflecting the shadow of the lamp, like pure silver.
She was sitting cross-legged on the bed, holding a lot of things in her hands, and her eyes were shining brightly, brightly illuminated by the lights!
Ye Qingxuan looked into her eyes and felt like a little female dragon was standing in front of him.
"Thirty thousand, twenty thousand, sixty thousand, one hundred and eleven thousand... This one is cheap. Twelve thousand is better than nothing. Hey, this is good. The purity of the gem is so high! The price is two hundred thousand!"
She smiled contentedly, counting the trophies in her hands, and her whole body almost melted with happiness.
After breaking into and looting, the most exciting thing is undoubtedly to sit on the ground and divide the loot!
Now, just counting these things made her scream with excitement, rolling on the bed holding the pillow: "It's incredible! He's dead! There's so much money, cousin, what should I do if I feel like I'm going to die!" "
"...divide the spoils first and then die."
Ye Qingxuan reached out helplessly and woke her up: "As promised, you will share half of it. Have you finished picking it?"
"Your, mine, your, mine..."
In the shadow of the lamp, Bai Xi divided the things into two piles with great dexterity, and finally took the larger pile into his arms without hesitation:
"Lazuli gold, ancient silver, and precious stones, these are all valuable and belong to me! Just take those tattered rune stones!"
The corner of Ye Qingxuan's mouth twitched: This guy chose money without hesitation, and then threw away all the valuable rune stones...
"You don't want the rune stones and these materials?"
Bai Xi looked at him sideways: "Cousin, if you are a genius like me, you only need to learn one instant note one day. Do I need it? Besides, I am a girl. What is it like to fight and kill every day? It's not easy for me. After making so much money, I will live the life of a noble lady from now on!"
Ye Qingxuan was speechless for a while.
It's one thing to feel frustrated in talent, but what the hell is a girl... Has Bai Xi really considered himself a girl in his heart
He sighed helplessly, and was really ready to say something, but when he looked up at Bai Xi with a silly smile on his face, he couldn't.
He just reached out and touched her long hair: "Whatever you like. Then I'm welcome."
He put away the rune stones that had formed a hill. After counting them, he was so frightened that he became numb... There were more than two hundred rune stones in total, all of which were the basic notes that Ye Qingxuan needed most. In order to collect these, the people of Tianzhu were afraid that Wipe out all the black markets around Avalon, right
But soon, he thought of something, and his expression suddenly became confused and stunned.
When Bai Xi saw his appearance, he was immediately confused: "What's wrong? The sky is falling?"
"Well… "
Ye Qingxuan raised his head sadly and asked weakly:
"Rune stones... how are they used?"
…
…
When it was dimly lit, the young man sitting cross-legged in the room seemed to be in a deep sleep.
Just like the popular meditation method among ascetics in Tianzhu, his five hearts are facing the sky, and his ten fingers are entangled in a seal, but between the entangled ten fingers, he is holding a crystal prism.
In the prism, a faint note appears as the light shines.
As he breathed, the light of ether rippled around him and turned into fine ripples.
The young man recited the syllables of the runes in a low voice, over and over again, resonating with the rune stones in his palm.
In his heart, a faint note kept floating and rising, gradually becoming clearer, and finally, it turned into a real and true form.
Without any thought, the note suddenly changed, no longer static, but turned into a jumping flame and began to burn.
The burning runes flickered and released a mysterious light, as if they had turned into stars.
Following the young man's will, the meditative notes in his mind slowly rose up to the illusory sky, shining together with the stars.
In the night sky, more than thirty stars shine brightly. Some of the stars transformed by those notes flowed like water, some were hazy in appearance, and some were ever-changing. As the notes burned, the positions of the stars suddenly shifted aside and slowly changed, making room for the new notes.
The starry sky slowly changed, and the stars wandered irregularly, and finally stabilized again. There is a certain gravitational pull between them, and they converge into an ever-changing force.
Driven by that force, the stars were faintly driven by movement.
There was a snap.
The rune stones in Ye Qingxuan's palm shattered and turned into dust, falling rustlingly. The young man slowly opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and raised his fingertips.
With the brief chanting of syllables, a cluster of flames burned from the fingertips.
He smiled: After consuming all the eleven runestones engraved with musical notes and burning, he advanced another musical note to the instantaneous level.
The thought is instant!
Relying on the foundation of a large number of rune stones, his apprentice's mastery of musical notes has reached the level of most third-level musicians. After all, not everyone has the opportunity to waste money and use extremely precious rune stones to practice musical notes.
He bent down and swept the white ash on the ground aside... Beside it, the ashes of the rune stones had piled up into a hill!
Overnight, he had consumed sixty rune stones, surpassing the progress that would normally take an apprentice a year or two to complete.
"Seventeen notes to go."
Ye Qingxuan stared at the pile of rune stones in front of him: after he fully learns these seventeen notes, the number of notes in his heart and soul will reach forty-eight.
The forty-eight basic notes recorded in "The Equal Temperament" will be completely controlled by him. At that time, the starry sky in his mind will move like a real starry sky.
At that time, he will be promoted to the rhythm level as a matter of course.
Next, it’s note·extraction.
He once again clenched a rune, closed his eyes and calmed his mind, but soon, he was ejected from his calmness and felt deeply dizzy.
"You were so full?"
He rubbed his forehead and smiled bitterly: overnight he had pushed twelve notes to the point where his thoughts were about to start.
How many people want to get a rune stone to resonate, just like a starving person wants to roast goose. But he didn't expect that he was almost exhausted from this gluttonous feast!
This feeling of dizziness... is so happy that it makes people cry.
Ye Qingxuan sighed and put away the rune stones.
There were still a few hours until afternoon class, and he still had time to catch up on some sleep.
But when he lay on his bed, he couldn't help but think of the professor's warning before leaving.
"Blood Road."
Ye Qingxuan sighed softly.
For many years, the Shadow of Avalon has been a bizarre legend. Some say it is the heaven on earth established by King Arthur. Some say it is the secret place where the fairy in the lake lives. Some people also say that there are endless treasures and precious musical scores stored there. .
If you want to enter there, the bloody road is the only way.
Over the years, many people have been searching for this path. But why did he inexplicably run to that mysterious blood road
To be honest, Ye Qingxuan definitely has no interest in the so-called Shadow of Avalon.
He just wants to become a musician, find out what happened to his father, and... rehabilitate his mother, so that she can get the honor and rest that belongs to her.
Apart from that, he has no interest in anything, but it seems that his father has some kind of connection with the Shadow of Avalon.
Every time he thought about this, he was confused. My father was forced to run away after he did something that many people hated.
So far, all he knows about his father are memories from when he was a boy, and the notebook of Langdi...
Ye Qingxuan's eyes suddenly lit up: That notebook! There might be some things above that I didn't notice. Will my father still have anything left in this heart seal
He suddenly jumped up from his bed and started rummaging through the boxes and cabinets.
notes! notes! Where are the notes
Not on the table, not in the cabinet, not under the bed...
In the end he searched the whole room and couldn't find it.
In desperation, he pushed the door open and ran to the living room to look for her.
Beside the dining table, Charles, who had gotten up early, was yawning and stirring oatmeal in the milk. When he saw Ye Qingxuan rushing downstairs, he couldn't help but spit and started coughing crazily.
"Wow, junior brother, you look like me in those days."
Charles gave a thumbs up: "Running around in a pair of shorts is so energetic! So energetic!"
"...Senior brother, please stop telling lies?"
Ye Qingxuan felt regretful and began to search frantically in the living room.
In the end, nothing was found.
"What are you looking for?"
Ciel was holding milk and watching the fun.
"Brother, have you seen where my notes are?"
Ye Qingxuan asked, "It's the book you took away when we just met. After you gave it back to me, I remember putting it on the table, but I can't find it now."
"Oh, that one." Charles thought for a moment, as if he remembered it, nodded and said, "I saw it."
Ye Qingxuan was overjoyed: "Where is it?"
"Isn't that what it is?"
Ciel pointed to the corner of the living room.
The young man was stunned for a moment, that direction...
He didn't know why, but he suddenly had a bad feeling.
…
…
…
In the early morning, in the lower city, the noisy market has begun to sell vegetables. Amidst the cries, women carrying baskets, butchers holding mutton legs, and beggars all gathered in this chaotic market.
As soon as the morning light breaks, the day of the traffickers and lackeys has already begun.
Recently, it has been going on here, and the fighting and shouting of death every night is like another world. In fact, for most people, those gangs are existences in another world, and they don't have much real sense.
Only when they open the door in the morning and find blood all over the alley will they understand what happened here last night. Then he brought a bucket of water to wash away the blood, picked up the tools and went to work.
Right next to the vegetable market, amidst the hustle and bustle, the tavern, which was originally closed early in the morning, opened its windows, letting the morning light shine into the dim interior.
Inside, there was silence, and the noise outside could be faintly heard.
In the quiet tavern, the bartender behind the counter had already been kicked out and was squatting on the steps, smoking, while smiling at the burly men guarding the door.
In the dim room, there were already people sitting around the only round table.
Last night, after the vengeful evil spirit and the professor who had become famous in the Lower City made a fuss together, Sheila Yidu unexpectedly appeared here.
He was sitting on a chair with a cold expression, just slowly smoking his hookah. Seeing his bloodshot eyes, the others who knew how unlucky he was last night immediately gloated.
On his left is Alberto, the leader of the Sicilians, the head of the Luci family, and the "grandfather" of all Sicilians. Lorenzo was his son.
The person on his right is a short man with a stubble on his face, the leader of the Asgardians - the dwarf Werner.
The three biggest bosses in Xiacheng District are actually gathered here. Originally, the professor was supposed to occupy a seat here, but now I'm afraid he won't be here either.
Well, now, there is only one person left who has not come...
