He is the last violin maker in Yunqi Pavilion. His fingertips can condense ice into strings, and his music can split mountains and rivers - but he can't play the scar in Xie Yanbing's heart.
Until we first met in the black market, the young master of Shang Yinlou, who was wearing the skin of a playboy, used half a jade pendant with a piano pattern to open his sword box: "Thank you, master, "Nine Heavens Qin Pu", how about you and I each take what we need?"
Gu Chengyu always had a smile in his eyes. When he was tuning the piano, he deliberately rubbed his fingertips and said, "The strings need to be warm before they ring." He turned around and disappeared into the firelight with the music score, leaving him to face the corpses in the pavilion and crush the blood-stained jade pendant.
Later, he sneaked into the military camp under a pseudonym and watched Gu Chengyu staring blankly at the old piano in Yunqi Pavilion in the tent. He mixed the blood of the dragon pattern into the ink and drew half an unopened ice-edge plum in the blank space of the memorial - that was his favorite flower.
"Did you know that if you break into the military aircraft camp without permission, you should be killed according to the law?" Gu Chengyu's knife was pressed against his throat, but his fingertips were trembling violently.
Xie Yanbing turned her head and bit his scabbard, tasting the rust mixed with the fragrance of the piano: "Don't you want the music score, Young Master Gu? I am the living music score."
Everyone knows that "Jiu Xiao Qin Pu" can determine the world, but no one knows that the key to deciphering the music is the symmetrical birthmark of broken strings on their wrists.
He thought he was a chess piece on the road to revenge, but when he was shot through the heart by a poisonous arrow, he heard Gu Chengyu swear to the beacon fire in the sky: "Xie Yanbing, I will offer you a job in exchange for your life."
He thought he was his opponent in the power chess game, but in the Jinluan Palace, the new emperor pressed his fingers on the royal seal: "You will get half of this world, even me."
From the tense situation of seizing a book on the black market, to the fake interview when they reunite in the military camp;
From the murderous intent hidden in the sound of the piano to the lifespan shared in the blood contract;
They are feuds, old enemies, and inevitable disasters in each other's lives——
After breaking through the fog of power and conspiracy, he is the only one who can turn "mountains and rivers as a betrothal" into "life and death".
"Xie Yanbing, do you think it can be repaired if the piano is broken?"
"Yes." He held Gu Chengyu's hand on the strings, "Just like you and me, after being broken once, we know better where to melt."
(Small theater)
Gu Chengyu: "It is said that Pavilion Master Xie is as cold as ice?"
Xie Yanbing (playing the third string): "If you keep making noise, I will use your dragon blood to stick to the piano next time."
Gu Chengyu (leaning forward and biting his earlobe): "Okay, after we stick to the piano, can we stick to it for the rest of our lives?"
Intention: Use the piano as a contract, break the situation with love - redemption and symbiosis beyond hatred and fate
