Shen Yunxi looked at the plum blossom hairpin in his hand and reached out to grab it: "Why are you here? Give it back to me."
Wu Xuanye raised the hairpin high: "Answer my question and I will return it to you."
Seeing that it was out of reach, Shen Yunxi gave up the fight and said, "I bought this on the street the second day I came to southern Xinjiang."
Wu Xuanye was a little surprised when he heard her answer. How could she choose such a hairpin by such a coincidence?
He asked: "This hairpin is worn out and old. Why did you buy it?"
Shen Yunxi said: "I like it. I saw it at first sight, and my name was engraved on it."
Wu Xuanye's pupils moved, and his fingers rubbed the handwriting on the hairpin that could not be clearly seen: "Your name?"
Shen Yunxi nodded: "My name is also Qianqian, my father named me Qianqian."
Wu Xuanye was stunned. He looked at Shen Yunxi, as if he was looking at another person through her.
Shen Yunxi stretched out her hand and asked, "Can you give it back to me?"
Wu Xuanye lowered his eyes, holding the hairpin in his hand and said, "This is what I gave her, and I carved it myself."
Shen Yunxi was not surprised: "I know, under the tree in the back hill, you personally gave her a hairpin, and she gave you a bell in return."
She asked curiously: "Where is your bell?"
Wu Xuanye was startled. He looked at Shen Yunxi with a somewhat excited expression: "How...how did you know?"
Shen Yunxi replied: "I saw it with my own eyes, in my dream."
She took out the bell she treasured in her arms and said: "Actually, these bells are a pair. They are Gu insects that she cultivated by herself, called Tongxin Gu.
The poisons in the bells are connected with each other. If you shake one of them, the other one will ring."
Wu Xuanye looked at the rusty bell in her hand, and her memory returned to the distant past.
In the mountains behind the Gu Palace, in the sea of flowers, the night before they left the Gu Palace.
He gave her the plum blossom hairpin he carved himself as a birthday gift.
And she gave him such a small bell in return, but she didn't tell him the purpose of the bell at the time.
later......
He remembered that when he was imprisoned, the bell would always make an inexplicable sound.
Betrayal, use and abandonment are mixed with resentment, accompanied by a steady stream of bells.
In a rage, he crushed the bell and turned it into ashes.
Only now did he realize that what he had crushed was her cry for help.
Wu Xuanye was filled with regret. He took the little bell and murmured: "Tongxin Gu, Tongxin Bell."
In fact, she must have already expressed her love to him at that time.
But he suddenly didn't realize it.
Shen Yunxi said: "Tongxingu is very popular in southern Xinjiang now. Only people who love each other will make the bell ring."
Another thing she didn't tell Wu Xuanye was that Wen Qian not only died of dystocia and depression, but that her bell stopped ringing.
The Gu insect can sense the master's thoughts and destiny. When the Gu insect dies, she thinks that he is also dead!
So, she also gave up her life.
Wu Xuanye was heartbroken. He said: "I didn't know there was a poison in this bell. I blamed her, blamed her, and hated her. But my bell kept ringing, which made me upset and angry. Then I crushed it to pieces."
What he crushed was not only a bell, but also his love that had not yet blossomed.
Shen Yunxi looked at his sad and self-reproaching look, and couldn't help feeling a little distressed. She said, "She won't blame you."
Wu Xuanye raised his eyes and looked at her: "How do you know? You are not her."
Shen Yunxi bit her lip stubbornly: "I just know it." After a pause, she added: "She told me in person in a dream."
Wu Xuanye asked her: "Then why didn't she come to me? Tell me in person?"
