Since that day, Ji Kang would go to the mountain stream almost every few days to find the fisherman wearing a straw raincoat and a straw hat. However, most of the time he would not see anyone, and he could only meet once or twice occasionally.

Although it is difficult to meet, Ji Kang always doesn't speak much every time he meets him, but just stays quietly aside. Later, he would bring a few books out of the academy and sit aside to read.

Perhaps what he came to look for was not the immortal fate, but the feeling that he seemed to have gotten rid of the world in this mountain forest.

As time goes by, Gu Nan is familiar with this young man. When fishing is fine, the two of them will talk a few words without saying a word.

Maybe it's after the vernal equinox.

One day, when Ji Kang came, his face looked a little ugly, his face was slightly yellow, and his eyes were swollen, as if he hadn't been asleep all night.

He was about to enter the officialdom, which was what his father and brother wanted, but he had no intention of becoming an official at all. What he wanted was to study in the countryside and travel around the world. So he thought about it all night last night, but still didn't understand how to do it.

Dragging his tired body, he saw Gu Nan sitting by the stream, walking to a stone to sit down, and looking at the empty fish frame beside Gu Nan.

"Can the immortal family catch fish today?"

"Ask a question knowingly." Gu Nan said while sitting quietly with a fishing rod. When she sat quietly, her body remained motionless, like a stone.

Ji Kang smiled tiredly, and did not take out a book to read as before, but sat by the stream in a daze.

A small fish jumped up from the water, splashed and swam past the hook, but didn't bite the bait. It was probably because Gu Nan had caught here for too long, and the fish had already known her.

"Immortals." Ji Kang watched the fish wandering and said to Gu Nan.

"I want to do one thing, but this matter is contrary to the grace of parents and the expectations of brothers and friends. It is not be kind or righteous. Do you think I should do it?"

Knowing that it would be difficult to catch fish today, Gu Nan put down the fishing rod in his hand and casually supported it aside.

After thinking about Ji Kang's question for a while, he said.

"So do you want to do this?"

Ji Kang thought for a while and nodded for sure: "I want to."

"Then will this matter involve both parents, brothers and friends?"

Ji Kang shook his head: "It shouldn't be."

"Then go and do it."

There was no reason, no advice, no redundant words. Since Ji Kang asked, Gu Nan told him her answer.

Even Ji Kang was stunned for a moment. He thought Gu Nan would either not be able to answer. If he answered, it would be a reason for the narrative. He didn't expect it to be so straightforward.

The two met one after another. Gu Nan looked at Ji Kang and placed his hand on the long piano beside him.

"How about I teach you a song?"

Ji Kang was still thinking about Gu Nan's words just now, and when he heard Gu Nan teach him the song, he saluted and said, "That's the hard work of the immortals."

The sound of the piano sounds in the mountain stream. Unlike in the past, today's sound of the piano is a bit intense, and the sounds never dissipate.

Ji Kang listened intently, and the sound of the piano was fiercely refuting just like his thoughts at this time.

The sound of the piano lasted for a long time, and I don’t know if it was played three times or four times, Ji Kang kept watching Gu Nan play.

Until Gu Nan gradually stopped and said to him.

"I learned this song from others. I haven't got a name yet, so you can name it yourself. Let's do it today. If you figure it out, I will give you the piano score when you come again next time."

Ji Kang still didn't know what he thought, or he had made it clear, but he didn't decide to do it.

He knew Gu Nan's words and so much that he stood up and bowed: "Xie Xianjia."

After saying that, he walked towards the narrow path in the mountains.

But when he walked to the path, he saw a man standing at the end of the path, a young man.

The young man was wearing a green robe, with slender eyebrows and eyes, which seemed very peaceful and would not give people a feeling of oppression. But it also made people feel indifferent and difficult to get close to.

The cheeks were clear and angular, with a plain expression, no smile or a stern look. There was a mole in the corner of his eyes, which added a bit of beauty. Anyone who saw this person should be praised.

Ji Kang was a little surprised and asked, "Ji Kang has met Mr. Ji, but I don't know if he is?"

"Oh." The young man responded calmly, pointed to Gu Nan by the stream and said, "I am her old acquaintance, but"

He pointed at Ji Kang and himself, blinked: "I should have seen you and I have seen you."

It was just the last time he met him, he was a deer.

Ji Kang naturally didn't remember him, and he thought he had forgotten it, so he couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

The young man did not stop at the topic of who he was, but said casually to Ji Kang.

"I heard about you, but some things should be understood by yourself."

As he said that, he stretched out a finger and pointed it on Ji Kang's forehead.

The moment he pointed his finger on his forehead, Ji Kang felt a clear mind, but that feeling was fleeting, and when he wanted to catch it, he couldn't catch it again.

"Go." The young man patted Ji Kang on the shoulder. Ji Kang didn't know what happened, so he bowed in a daze and thanked him for leaving.

When Ji Kang walked away, the young talent walked towards Gu Nan. Gu Nan looked back at him and looked away.

"Why do you always come during this time?"

The young man did not answer her and walked slowly to her side and said.

"Can you teach me the song you just now?"

Gu Nan raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised: "You have read it several times, but can't you learn it?"

She knew the ability of the person in front of her, and she didn't believe that she could not even learn a piano piece.

The young man shook his head and said as if he was taken for granted.

"I can't learn if you don't agree."

He pays attention to rules in his work and is the same at all times.

Looking at his rigid appearance, Gu Nan sighed heavily and put his hands back on the long piano.

"I'll play it again for you to see, you'll learn it yourself."

The hands were stroking the strings of the piano, and the young man sat down and listened silently to the sound of the piano accompanied by the gentle mountain breeze and the gurgling stream.

The sun was as lazy as it fell slowly on the stones by the stream, and one or two birds cries came from the distant mountains.

The sound of the piano stirred, but it made him feel calm.

He turned his head and looked at Gu Nan, very close, so he could see her lowered eyes through the hat.

It seemed as if suddenly, he understood why she liked to live in such a place.

The young man lowered his eyes and looked at the hands on the strings. He was in a daze to see one of the hands, and there was a hideous scar on the back of the hands.

After closing his eyes lightly, the young man reached out his hand silently and held Gu Nan's palm.

The sound of the piano came to an abrupt end, Gu Nan's hand was held, his brows frowned slightly, and he looked at the young man and asked.

"what you do?"

I don’t know if it was panic, but the young man paused his hand and let go of Gu Nan.

"nothing."
