    Back home, Huainan still felt a little cold. Seeing her listless appearance, Li Ling asked what was wrong. He reached out and tried Huainan's forehead. He seemed to have a slight fever.  Antipyretics, and boiled water, Yang Lan is not at home, busy Li Ling is in a hurry.

    After sleeping under the covers, I woke up feeling refreshed.  Li Ling saw that Huainan was getting better, so he hurried back to the inn.

    Lili meowed, jumped down from the den, climbed onto the desk, and looked at Huainan.

    Huainan stood up reluctantly, touched his forehead, "Did I provoke something again?"

    Liliu said: "Yes."

    Huainan was puzzled, "Is it the little monster in the academy?"

    Lili shook his head, "It's that old man."

    Huainan was taken aback, "Is that the old man I accidentally bumped into? Heis he a monster?"

    "No." Lili shook his head: "It's not humans, it's not demons, and it's not ghosts. It's something called mei. Humans become ghosts after death, and ghosts become mei after hundreds of years of practice. Meizu can break out of it."  Wangchuan, return to the world."

    Huainan was surprised when he heard that the old man was clearly human. He suddenly remembered the strange look in the passers-by's eyes when he accidentally bumped into the old man and said he was sorry.  can not see?"

    Liliu nodded, "Yes."

    Huainan hurriedly said again, "I just accidentally bumped into it, will it cause disaster?"

    Lili turned his head and thought for a while, "Probably not."

    After packing up the dinner, Li Ling greeted Huainan for dinner, thinking that tomorrow would be Monday, and the homework for the travel notes assigned by the teacher hadn't been finished yet, so Huainan ate carelessly, so he hurried back to his room to make up his homework.

    In the evening of early summer, the sky was a bit gloomy. After nightfall, there was a wind blowing, and there was a faint thunder, and it might rain.

    Huainan got up and closed the window, went back to the desk and continued to write his travel notes. He thought of Liliu, and looked back at Liliu's nest. Liliu disappeared after dinner, and has not returned until now.

    The desk light was dim, and Huainan was in a trance when the wind chime on the window sill rang softly. Huainan hurriedly turned his head to see that there was no wind. Thinking in his heart, he felt a little dozed off, so he fell asleep on the desk.

    There was a faint sound of thunder outside the window, and it started to rain. The rain was also mixed with the faint sound of the piano. Huainan wondered who was playing the piano?  He saw a boy of eighteen or nineteen walking by, Huainan wanted to say hello, but the boy seemed to be unable to see her, and went straight away looking for the sound of the piano.

    Huainan thought in a daze, not knowing where this was, so he hurriedly followed the boy.

    A few turns on the mountain road, outside a Taoist temple, the young man quietly listened to the sound of the piano, clasping the beat with his hands behind his back.

    Huainan was taken aback. The next scene was a lotus pond in the Taoist temple. The young man passed through the lotus pond and swept towards the pavilion in the pond. Inside the misty white curtain in the pavilion, someone was playing the piano.

    The young man's dropped clothes brought up a gentle wind, and the wind blew away the white curtain. It was a Taoist priest in his forties, and behind him stood a child holding floating dust in his hands.

    The little boy saw that the young man raised the curtain and was about to shout, but when he heard a clang, the Taoist priest played a note, and the curtain fell down by itself.

    The young man smiled lightly: "Passing by here, I was attracted by the sound of the piano, so I came to take a look. Sir, continue to play, and I will leave after listening."

    The Taoist raised his eyebrows and continued playing the piano without answering.

    The young man sat next to the beauty, closed his eyes, and tapped the beat while listening to the piano.

    He still held a bunch of lotus flowers just picked from the lotus pond in his hand.

    The ancient and clumsy sound of the piano was accompanied by the crackling of the lotus leaves from the rain. The Taoist priest played halfway, looked up at the young man who was immersed in the music outside the curtain, and pressed his fingers hard, and the soul-stirring sound of the piano immediately lingered throughout the courtyard.

    The young man noticed it, opened his eyes slightly, glanced around, raised the corners of his mouth again, with a slight smile, shook the lotus in his hand, and dissipated the spiritual power lingering in the sound of the piano, and said with a smile: "The sound of the piano is scattered!"  That's it." He continued to close his eyes.

    After playing a piece, the young man stood up, bowed to the Taoist priest and said, "Sir, I am impressed by my junior piano skills. If you didn't try it on purpose, this piece should be played perfectly." He smiled again, "I just listened to it for a while.  It¡¯s not worth it. Promise, I¡¯ll give this lotus to my husband.¡± Gently brushing the tip of the lotus with my hand, the lotus bloomed and filled the courtyard with a delicate fragrance.

    The little boy removed the curtain, the Taoist flicked his sleeves lightly, got up to pick up the lotus, and saluted: "Thank you."

    teenageHe smiled, "This lotus is worthy of the sound of the master's piano. Farewell." Saying that, he was about to leave.

    The Taoist said: "Wait a minute, you will receive the gift immediately, and you should know the name."

    The young man laughed, "The younger generation's dust, the dust of the mortal world, the unswerving love." While speaking, he had disappeared.

    The boy next to him was already staring blankly, and the Taoist priest was also stunned. The name Chenyu suddenly remembered a past event many years ago, and thought to himself, "It turned out to be him."

    The rain was getting heavier and heavier, there was a slight sigh, Huainan thought in a daze, only heard a bang, something was knocked open, it was a window, Huainan was taken aback, and suddenly opened his eyes, the indoor light was dim, it really was  The windows were blown open by the wind, and a lot of rainwater had leaked into the ground.

    Huainan hurriedly got up and closed the window, who knew that the wind was strong in the rain, and as soon as he got up, the paper on the table was blown away.

    Huainan didn't bother to close the window, and went to pick up the paper that fell on the floor. The door squeaked and opened a gap, only to see the raccoon poking his head in. The fur on his body was all stained and dripping water continuously.  .

    Huainan couldn't help laughing at the cat's appearance, "I saw it was going to rain and ran around, I must have been drenched." As he spoke, his fingers touched the edge of a piece of paper that had fallen on the ground, and suddenly felt  Something is wrong, there seems to be a powerful force on the paper that wants to suck itself into it, and he said in shock: "Liu Li."

    A dazzling light flashed, the picked up paper was scattered all over the floor, and there was no trace of Huainan in the room.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
