Chapter 20: Antique Music Box
Zhong Jianian was about to push the door and go in, but found that the door could not be opened.
He turned the door handle again, but still couldn't push it open.
"What's going on?" Xue Yang held his hands tightly and tucked them in front of his chest. Looking at the door that could not be opened, his face turned pale because of his fright.
"It can't be opened." Zhong Jianian and Xue Yang looked at each other, shook their heads, saying that there was nothing they could do.
Wanwan stared at the door panel, lay on Xia Zhihuai's shoulder, and muttered in a low voice: "The bad things inside are afraid of Wanwan and dare not open the door."
Xia Zhihuai poked her bun face: "Don't stick gilds on your face, okay?"
"Let's stay away, Brother Nian will try again." Wanwan ordered Xia Zhihuai to walk backwards.
Xia Zhihuai thought this was purely nonsense, but he still walked away with the little radish spirit in his arms.
"Click", the door of the music room opened.
Xia Zhihuai glanced at the little radish spirit in his arms: "Isn't it a coincidence?"
"Brother, why are you always unwilling to believe the truth?"
Wanwan sighed.
After Brother Qinglong became a mortal, why did he feel stupid everywhere?
Zhong Jianian looked back at Xia Zhihuai and Wanwan, stopped at the door and hesitated, "Come in directly?"
"Hmm." Wanwan slipped down from Xia Zhihuai, swung her short legs, and pressed against the door that was about to close again, and smiled, "Hmm, I actually want to lock me outside the door!"
Xia Zhihuai helped her open the door and found it a little difficult. He was secretly surprised and looked up at the dim music room.
It's even colder than the living room.
The curtains were pulled, and the music room seemed airtight.
...
Zhong Jianian turned on the lights, walked to the window, and pulled open the curtains of the bay window.
The bright light outside the window passed through the glass and fell into the spacious music room, dispelling the darkness and coldness.
Wanwan opened her eyes wide and looked at the various instruments in the music room, and said in surprise.
"There are so many instruments." Wanwan turned her head and looked at Zhong Jianian in admiration, "Does Brother Nian use these instruments?"
Zhong Jianian pursed her lips and smiled: "Yes, if you like it, I can teach you in the future."
Xia Zhihuai looked at the two brothers, friends and sisters, and was so sad.
What's so great about knowing musical instruments? He can also play the violin.
Little Tu Niu Wanwan.
Wanwan naturally didn't care about Xia Zhihuai's expression. She shook her body excitedly, held her cheek and asked, "Really?"
"Is it really OK?"
"Can I learn too?"
Zhong Jianian looked at Wanwan with the little stars in her eyes, and she felt that Wanwan was indeed a three and a half-year-old child.
"Yes, I'll live downstairs of your house. If you have time, you can come to me." Zhong Jianian promised.
Wanwan nodded immediately like pounding garlic.
Seeing that the little guy was about to be abducted, Xia Zhihuai urged: "Didn't you say you should help find something? Hurry up, we also ordered takeaway, it's time to go home for dinner later."
“Right now.”
Wanwan immediately put away her hilarious look and turned her head to look at the corner where the boxes were piled up.
Zhong Jianian looked at several international express delivery that had not been opened and some items that had been shipped back, and took a paper cutter to disassemble the carton.
“There’s all here.”
Wanwan bypassed several large classical instruments, and did not go to see Zhong Jianian unboxing, but instead aimed at the ornaments on the niche.
On the second floor, there is a black box.
The box is inlaid with gorgeous gems, the gems on the heart of the lock are red like blood, and there is still a little patina on the brass lock.
Wanwan pointed to the box and turned her head and asked, "Brother Nian, can you take that box down and show me?"
Zhong Jianian sat on the box, looked at the box on the niche, and suddenly came back to her senses: "Yes."
He got up and took off the black box, placed it on the small table, and introduced: "This is a music box, bought it from a friend half a year ago. Is there any problem?"
Wanwan didn't say anything, her fingers were burned while holding the big music box, and a white smoke came out between her fingers.
Xia Zhihuai hurriedly took the music box from her hand and placed it on the table: "Are you injured your hand?"
"No." Wanwan reached out her white and tender little hands in front of Xia Zhihuai and said with a smile, "It can't hurt me."
"How could it be smoke?"
Xia Zhihuai stared at the music box on the table, thinking that he might be getting further and further away from the world of science.
Wanwan pointed to the corner of the box: "It's because it's injured."
She has fairy spirit energy to protect her body, and she is afraid of evil spirits and will be burned when she encounters them.
"The box is made of locust wood. Locust wood is the first of the five yin wood. If it becomes a sinking Yin wood, it is the best carrier for nourishing Yin and gathering evil."
Wanwan looked at the beautiful ebony box, and the little ghost sighed: "This music box is made of Shenyin Wood."
Zhong Jianian was chilling behind her, staring at the music box for a moment, her mind was blank.
When he first got the hand, he thought the music box was very beautiful and the tone was very nice, so he had no inspiration to write songs, so he would put the music box on the piano. Listening to the sounds made in the music box, he would feel very calm and gradually he would have new inspiration.
So, he loves playing with this antique music box very much.
Xue Yang stared at the music box and turned his head to look at Zhong Jianian, who looked pale: "Who did you buy this music box from?"
Zhong Jianian looked up blankly: "It's Deng Songming. He said it was an antique he encountered by chance. It happened to be difficult for him to pass me the goods during that time. He probably didn't know that there was something wrong with this music box, right?"
Xue Yang bit his back teeth and couldn't help but scold him.
"Zhong Jianian, are you stupid?"
"You believe Deng Songming, how many times have you told you that he is not right, so you don't interact with him. How could he have no feelings for this kind of thing before?"
...
Wanwan and Xia Zhihuai were confused, and the brother and sister squatted at the table and stared at each other.
Zhong Jianian did not refute Xue Yang's words. Xia Zhihuai looked at the two of them with different expressions and said, "Let's solve this music box problem first."
Even though Xue Yang kept silent, he said apologetically: "Sorry, my temper has risen and I can't help but stop it."
Xia Zhihuai waved his hand, but Zhong Jianian, the agent, had a bit of a temper, but it had nothing to do with him.
He turned his head to look at Wanwan and asked, "It's this thing that has an impact on Zhong Jianian, right?"
Wanwan nodded and said with a firm voice: "There is a very fierce bad thing in the box."
Wanwan reached out to open the box, and a shrill scream came from the box.
A black yin energy jumped out of the gap in the box, and the temperature inside the house dropped sharply, and Xia Zhihuai shivered.
He rubbed his right eye and looked at the place where the Yin Qi fled.
"Wanwan, that thing just...has it got into Zhong Jianian's body?"
Wanwan looked at Zhong Jianian, whose face suddenly turned gloomy, and the fine black patterns quickly climbed up to both sides of his cheeks from the back of his neck.
The whites of his eyes also changed, and his pupils became like small black dots, staring stiffly at Wanwan standing on the ground.
After Xue Yang looked at him, he fell to the ground in fear and made a sharp scream.
"Help--"
"monster!"
Xue Yang wanted to get up from the ground and leave, but Zhong Jianian stepped on her ankle. Her white high heels were kicked off by Xue Yang. Her face turned pale in pain and she fell into a state of horror.
Seeing this, Xia Zhihuai quickly got up to stop Zhong Jianian.
Wanwan bulged her fleshy cheeks, and a small flame suddenly appeared in her eyes.
Chapter completed!
