"The zither, huh?" Yu Rou mumbled after hearing about this instrument from Yuan, and she said a moment later, "People used to play those instruments in the ancient times if I remember correctly, but it's rarely played today."

"I'm not too sure either, but I can look it up online if you want." Yu Rou said to him.

"Okay."

"Give me a moment…"

Yu Rou pulled out her smartphone and did a quick search on the web.

"Zithers… Eh?" Yu Rou released a surprised voice.

"What is it?" Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked her with his interest piqued.

"Well… it says that the reason people stopped playing the zither was due to some curse… It doesn't make any sense," Yu Rou said.

"Curse?"
