Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 1435 Music Box

The silver needle pierced the little craftsman's shoulder, right on the prickly hole, and immediately made half of his body go numb, and he fell back to the bench.

Liu Ya said without turning her head: "The silver needle is also for you." After speaking, she casually took the oiled paper umbrella that was left at the door when she entered the door just now, and walked out the door.

The little craftsman couldn't stand up. Seeing that Liu Ya had gone far away, he simply shouted: "Girl, I don't mean any harm. I'm just afraid that you will be lonely on the road, so I want to go with you."

Liu Ya turned a deaf ear to her, she was almost out of sight.

The little craftsman hurriedly shouted louder: "We will meet again. My name is Mu Qingyu."

However, the voice drifted away and the person was gone, Liu Yacai didn't care whether he was Qingyu, Ziyu or Lanyu, she didn't care at all.

She didn't go back to the inn, anyway, except for a set of clothes, she didn't have anything valuable to pack, so Liu Ya walked out of the city directly holding an umbrella.

Now it is the end of the winter moon, and it will be the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye.

It has been a month since she came out alone, and she has never contacted anyone, and no one has come to find her.

Liu Ya couldn't help touching her face, thinking about what the little craftsman said just now, she laughed at herself: "Is my lonely appearance written on my face? Or is he used to chatting up girls like this?"

The rain was still pouring down, making a "crackling" sound on the oil-paper umbrella.

After walking for a while, Liu Ya suddenly discovered that the umbrella had changed.The originally plain earth-colored umbrella surface was smudged with watermarks because it had been drenched in the rain for a long time.

But the watermark was not chaotic, but instead formed a picture scroll of overlapping shadows.

Some watermarks look like flowing clouds in the sky, and some watermarks look like rushing streams. Looking at the entire umbrella surface, it is a picture scroll of high sky, clear clouds and gurgling streams.Looking carefully, it seems that there are still people fishing by the stream?
Is such an exquisite and beautiful picture scroll a divine work of nature, or is it the ingenuity of a craftsman?

Liu Ya stared blankly for a while, and couldn't help thinking of that handsome little craftsman.

It seems that people are good-looking, and the things they make are quite strange, and I don't know which famous disciple they come from.

With such superb craftsmanship and this kind of leisure, he is not only a famous family but also a noble son of a wealthy family.

But they will definitely not be the children of craftsmen from ordinary people's families, because ordinary people's food and clothing are the first, they don't have that elegance, and they don't have such a distant artistic conception.

Because of the uniqueness of this umbrella, Liu Ya looked up from time to time while walking.After walking for a long time, Liu Ya discovered that the special feature of this umbrella is that the amount of rain will make the umbrella surface form different patterns.

Although he was holding an umbrella in his hand, it was as if he was holding a kaleidoscope, which made Liu Ya feel very interesting along the way.

Until the end, I wished that the rain would be heavier or lighter. In short, it would be better if the rain did not stop.

In this way, we walked all the way to dusk, because it was always rainy, so we could only roughly judge the time.

There is a small town ahead, because of the rainy day, no one in the town can be seen at this time.

Liu Ya wasn't sure how far she had to go to get to the town, so she simply decided to stay here for one night and leave tomorrow.

The town is neither big nor small.There are two inns not far from each other on the main street, one of which is larger and is a small second-floor structure.But the front hall on the first floor was a restaurant, and it was time for dinner, so there were a few diners eating at the table.

Liu Ya didn't like to see people who looked ugly, so she walked forward, wanting to see how the smaller inn was.

Fortunately, this inn is small, but it looks clean.There is a small counter and two small tables in the front hall, which should be a place for guests to rest temporarily, and there is no one there at this time.

Liu Ya came in and asked for an upper room to live in.The house is not big, but fortunately it is clean and tidy.The guy in the store also said that three meals a day can be delivered to the guests' houses.

After walking for such a day, even though she was holding an umbrella, the wind was unavoidable, so Liu Ya's clothes were slightly damp, and her pair of shoes were even wet inside.

Liu Ya asked the staff to bring hot water for her to wash and wash, and also asked her to bring her dinner directly to the house.

When everything was tidied up and Liu Ya was having dinner, he heard the staff call for someone to live next door to Liu Ya.

As soon as Liu Ya's mind moved, she inexplicably felt uneasy.She simply put down her chopsticks, walked to the door and looked out through the crack of the door.

But I saw the man leading a tall and strong man over, but he didn't see the face, only the broad back of the man.But looking at this back, it is definitely not someone I know.

Liu Ya took a breath, wondering if she was making a fuss out of a molehill.Then he sat back and ate with peace of mind, ignoring whether someone came outside again.

And after that, until Liu Ya was about to go to bed, she didn't hear any other guests coming in.

Liu Ya turned off the light, inserted the latch, and got ready to sleep.But just as she lay down, she heard a burst of music.

The sound of the music is a bit monotonous, a ditty of one syllable.But the sound was very clear and sweet, like the ding-dong sound of pearls falling on a jade plate, or the fine sound of stream water crashing against pebbles.

But what Liuya cares about is that the music is not played by ordinary strings, but like... the sound of a music box.

That's right, it's the sound of a music box.After the mainspring is fully wound, the shrapnel in the music box will automatically ring the bell button on the roller, thus emitting high and low tunes.

Different tunes can be played by the different positions of the bell button on the roller.

Liu Ya sat up from the bed, put her hands on her chin and listened quietly, finding it interesting and familiar.

The "ding dong" sound from the music box was intermittent, sometimes a whole little song was played, and sometimes it stopped halfway through and played again after a while.

It sounded like the person who was fiddling with the music box, constantly adjusting the tone.Until late at night, a complete and accurate tune was played, and the music box never sounded again.

Liu Ya also unknowingly heard it late into the night, and when the surroundings became completely silent, she was no longer sleepy.

At this time, her mind kept recalling all kinds of things from the past, thinking about Cang Qianche, and also thinking about Gu Shangqing, Qiuying, Xiuning and the others.

"Why does it seem like I'm going further and further away? Could it be that I really can't go back?" Liu Ya couldn't help but mutter to herself.

For the first time in this month, she felt lonely in her heart, as if the things she gave up at the beginning had drifted away to nowhere.

　That's all for today, there is no update at zero o'clock, so don't wait.The box is temporarily busy, sorry.
