System: Arena of the Gods

Chapter 994

Seeing this smile, Wang Chu was stunned, and then he felt strange. It was not like he had never seen Shangguan smile before, but his reaction at that time was not like this.

How could he not understand the meaning of Shangguan's words, but he didn't want to answer, or he didn't know how to answer.

So he made an evasive move and said in a daze: "There's nothing interesting to see. Let's go back. I also promised Mr. Jiang a drink."

After saying that, he walked back helplessly. Shangguan looked at his back and smiled silently, then turned his hand away and jumped up like a girl to catch up.

If Xiaohui saw such a gesture, she would definitely suspect that her beloved sect master had been taken away from her. This was not the dignified relative she knew.

Wang Chu didn't find it strange. In the past, Shangguan was too tired and had to show a cold attitude. He spoke and acted calmly, not wanting to expose his weaknesses.

Maybe she left the sect and saw the wonders of the world, or maybe she saw the vast sea and her mind opened up. Her heart finally relaxed. Now is her truest side, still the same as she was 20 years ago. of mind.

But this side is probably only his chance to see, and it won't last long. When she returns to the city, she will change back to her original appearance.

Thinking of this, Wang Chu couldn't bear to walk too fast and gradually slowed down, and Shangguan also slowed down with him.

The two of them kept silent and walked quietly. Gradually, Wang Chu felt that he was not so resistant anymore, and it was good to be like this.

Perhaps feeling a little too silent, Shangguan hummed a piece of music that Wang Chu had never heard before, a piece that did not belong to this era.

Although Wang Chu didn't know much about music, he could still tell that the tune was very simple. But when he hummed it from Shangguan's mouth, he felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy and it sounded pleasant to the ears.

"It's very nice. What kind of song is this? Does it have a name?" Wang Chu asked softly.

"Humming casually, no name." Shangguan said with a smile.

"Do you still understand music?" Wang Chu asked again.

"Uncle Master... I have been taught by the great elder before, and I know a little bit about it. If Mr. Chu wants to listen, I can play the piano for you at any time." Shangguan bent down and walked around in front of Wang Chu, tilting his head and smiling.

Wang Chu blushed. He knew that he must be blushing without looking in the mirror. He looked around, pointed to a hill in the distance and said, "Actually, I'm not in a hurry to go back. Let's go for a walk in the mountains?"

Shangguan raised his eyebrows, curled his eyes, turned around, and continued to skip up the mountain, humming like a lark.

This time it was Wang Chu's turn to look at Shangguan's back. Unknowingly, his mind was completely attracted and he followed him unconsciously.

In Tangxi City, in the southwest area, melodious piano music suddenly sounded, and the lingering sound lingered in the ears.

Countless people were attracted by the sound of the piano and put down their work.

Those who don't understand the music only feel the tune is beautiful and unconsciously twist their bodies to follow the music, but for those who know the music, a picture appears in their minds.

A carefree little girl shuttles freely in the flower field like a butterfly, smelling the fragrance of various flowers, like an elf.

But then she was caught by a pair of big hands falling from the sky. The little girl was ravaged by all kinds of things in the big hands. After experiencing a long period of darkness, she gradually became slimmer.

At first, the little girl was frightened, confused, and didn't understand why she was being treated like this. Later, she gradually became numb and looked forward to the end.

Later, she gradually understood that the big hand was not destroying her, but training her. She renewed her spirit and vowed to fight to the end.

Finally one day, a heroic man untied the shackles of Big Hand, brought her back to the light, and even challenged the owner of Big Hand for her.

When the man appeared in front of the girl again, he still kept a smile and his front was unscathed. It seemed that everything was under control. However, when the man turned his body inadvertently, the girl saw the man's scarred back.

At that moment, the girl decided to stand side by side with the man. No matter whether she encountered darkness or light in the future, she wanted to stand by his side.

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and countless people were sad, hoping that the men and women in the picture could really join hands.

On the mountain, Wang Chu was sitting cross-legged on a bluestone. He closed his eyes tightly. A tear fell silently from the corner of his eye, but he wiped it away quickly. Then he opened his eyes and looked at Shangguan who was opposite with his hands on the edge of the piano.

"I, a music idiot, can hear the sadness, dissatisfaction, hesitation, relief, determination and other emotions in the music. Shangguan, you don't know a thing or two. You are too humble." Wang Chu said without finishing his meaning.

"It's just my true feelings. I can't play other songs at this level." Shangguan said modestly, but his body couldn't stop trembling.

She knew very well that Wang Chu was not familiar with music. Although this piece seemed like playing the harp to others, it was really played according to his heart and his performance was extraordinary.

I thought that Wang Chu would only find it pleasant, but from the passage just now, Wang Chu expressed a sense of empathy. This at least proved that she and Wang Chu had the most basic communication of minds. This is A major breakthrough.

"After the song is over, it's time to return. The sun is setting in the west. We need to make preparations in advance." Shangguan lowered his head and said, but he said it loudly.

"Oh, I was so attracted by such a beautiful piece of music that I completely lost track of time. Uncle Jiang, wait for me." Wang Chu stood up and said anxiously.

"Don't be anxious, Mr. Chu. I have informed Xiaohui and she will arrange everything. All you need to do is invite her," Shangguan persuaded.

"Hey, you are worthy of being the leader of a sect. He is considerate in everything he does. It is not too late to leave as soon as possible." Wang Chu urged.

He was a little embarrassed, because the picture he got from the song was completely different from that of ordinary people. It was the resentment and expectation of the young daughter who was unable to woo her. Naturally, he was a little panicked when he faced Shangguan again.

From many movies and TV dramas, he learned that the romance of the ancients was far better than that of today's people. After personal experience, he realized that he still underestimated the romanticism of ancient times. He really couldn't resist it.

The two of them set off on the road back to the city, without changing the route this time. Wang Chu had the illusion that if he was left alone with Shangguan again, he would really surrender.

Approaching the city, Shangguan also gradually changed his posture and returned to his previous calm and cold state. Wang Chu actually felt a little regretful.

He finally determined that this was extremely abnormal. Before, when Shangguan was not blocked by the Destiny Stone, he could still actively suppress his impulses and stay calm.

Now it seems to have completely failed, and his mind is attracted by Shangguan, but when he is wandering around the city, the reactions of others are very consistent with the state of meeting a stunning beauty.

So he questioned the system: "System, come out, have you tricked me again? Why does it seem that Shangguan's attraction is completely directed at me?"

"Host, don't be ignorant of your blessings. I have such a stunning beauty in heaven and on earth that I am already envious of others. Why are you still not satisfied?" the system said with a bad smile.

"You did something to the pendant, just for me!" Wang Chu suddenly realized.

"Be content. You can regard this as another trial, but please don't forget that it is the hardest to accept the kindness of a beautiful woman. Come on." The system rogue said.

Wang Chu understood that the system would definitely not help him, but from another perspective, this was indeed an opportunity to hone his skills, so he could only accept it.

"Shangguan, this song of yours has probably been known to everyone in Tangxi Pavilion. It won't take long to find out the identity. I have only one request. If Senior Jiang invites you to play the piano during the dinner, please refuse." Wang Chu said solemnly. .

"I said that my music is only played for Chu Lang." Shangguan did not look at Wang Chu, but his tone was firm.
