Is this Pipa Ghost just a monster trying to scare people?
But most people can't see it.
No matter how hard it tries to make faces, no matter how terrifying it is, it can't scare these people.
Seeing the Pipa Ghost laughing so happily, why did Xiao Xiao suddenly feel pitiful for this monster?
This monster must have tried countless times, right?
Every time when others are immersed in its pipa music and unable to extricate themselves, they stop and make faces.
If these people could see it, they would really be scared to death by it, right?
…
After the Pipa Demon laughed to himself for a while, he returned to his handsome young appearance, holding Pipa in his arms, and walked towards Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao:?
The Pipa Demon walked over and saw Feifei on Xiao Xiao's other shoulder.
It was obviously stunned.
The two monsters stared at each other silently for a while, then looked away.
Pipa Demon looked at Xiao Xiao strangely.
But there was no other reaction. Just like what he had done countless times before, his pale and slender fingers gently plucked the silk strings, and there was a faint heavenly sound.
Appreciating it at such a close distance, Xiao Xiao lowered his head slightly and closed his eyes. He felt that his heart was clear, the years were peaceful, and his slight melancholy was as intoxicating as fine wine.
…
Even if you know the evil behavior of this monster, it is still difficult to restrain yourself from wanting to beat it after experiencing it personally.
What a great piece of music, what a beautiful performance.
He stopped so abruptly, Xiao Xiao felt like his heart was on fire, he scratched his ears and cheeks, wishing he could grab the Pipa Demon's hand and continue playing.
After enduring it again and again, Xiao Xiao looked at the pipa ghost in front of him with his eyes open and his tongue hanging out expressionlessly, but he still couldn't hold it back and asked: "Why don't you finish playing a piece of music?"
"!" The Pipa Demon's expression froze.
His eyeballs were hanging out of his eye sockets, and his tongue was hanging under his chin, which was inexplicably funny.
Xiao Xiao pursed his lips and let out a few hints of laughter with a "Pfft~" sound. He quickly coughed a few times to suppress the laughter that was about to burst out.
The previous resentment because the pipa song ended halfway also disappeared.
…
"Hua la la~" The rain became heavier and heavier.
The roaring sound of rain, the hazy water vapor and the heavy rain curtains created a relatively independent small world for Xiao Xiao.
On this rainy day, he met a monster who liked to play the pipa and scare people.
What an interesting experience.
"Hello."
Xiao Xiao suddenly had the idea of getting to know this monster.
It was the second humanoid monster he had encountered besides the fox monster. It was almost indistinguishable from humans in appearance and body shape.
No, maybe this Pipa ghost was the first humanoid monster he met. The fox monster only possessed a human form by possessing a human girl, but its body was a fox.
If it were not for possession, there would be no way for it to transform into a human being based on the cultivation of its two tails.
So this Pipa ghost is considered unique, right?
Isn’t cultivating the human form an important goal of many monsters’ cultivation?
So, maybe this Pipa ghost is surprisingly powerful?
…
Pipa Ghost was a little stunned when he saw Xiao Xiao's expression showing no fear and even a little smile.
This is the first time it has encountered a human being who can see it.
As long as it can remember, it has been wandering around the city holding a pipa.
It plays a piece for the human being it likes, and remembers that in the beginning, it played a whole piece of music with all its heart.
However, no matter how hard it works and no matter how well it plays the pipa, no human being can really hear it, let alone appreciate it.
After being disappointed again and again, it became angry.
He began to stop playing complete pieces, and took to liking to have a nasty abrupt stop at the climax of the piece, and then make the most horrific faces imaginable, and then laugh himself so hard that his stomach knotted.
Just like this, even though it was its own one-man show, the Pipa Ghost was actually enjoying itself very much, without a trace of gloom between its brows and eyes.
After all, no matter how human it looks, it is still a monster, and monsters do not have the sentimentality of humans.
…
This time the Pipa Demon didn't open his eyes, he just grinned the corners of his mouth, still grinning all the way to his ears.
The "drinking" sound coming from the throat is not pleasant, but more like a beast-like roar.
Is this a joke?
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but also smiled.
Although I was a little surprised and regretful that this Pipa demon couldn't speak.
The Pipa Demon, who clearly didn't make any faces, looked like an ordinary boy, but it always made him feel that as long as he talked to him, it would answer him the next moment.
Moreover, the pipa music played was so beautiful, but its voice was hoarse and unpleasant, as if it had been burnt by smoke.
However, seeing the extremely exaggerated yet somewhat innocent smile on Pipa Ghost's face, he felt that such a Pipa Ghost was very good.
The smile on Xiao Xiao's lips couldn't help but deepen a little.
…
"Hello, Pipa Ghost, my name is Xiao Xiao, can you play another song for me?"
"A complete song."
"Drink~" Pipa Ghost nodded. As the first human being who could hear it playing, it was naturally willing to play a complete song for him.
Moreover, I don’t know how long ago, it seemed to have had a wish. What was it?
Oh, by the way, I just hope that there will be a human being who can listen to it play a song seriously and completely.
However, how long ago did this idea come up? Well, I don’t really remember...
In short, it came true today, so happy!
Pipa Ghost's face has returned to normal.
The Pipa ghost is focused and serious in playing, with a clear and low tone, and a light melody that seems to have a slight warmth, a kind of melancholy and gentleness of the afterglow.
Both Xiao Xiao and Feifei on his shoulders looked intoxicated.
…
At the end of the song, there was a lingering sound. Xiao Xiao, who was still intoxicated, looked up and saw the pipa ghost's eyes widening and sticking out his tongue. In an instant, he was not moved at all, and he only felt that he couldn't laugh or cry.
"Drink~" Seeing this, Pipa Demon looked proud and excited.
The brown eyes were filled with a brilliance like broken gold. This was... Xiao Xiao turned his head and looked at the sky. Unknown to him, the heavy rain had stopped, and a few rays of sunlight penetrated the gradually dispersing clouds and poured down.
A ray of sunlight hit Pipa Demon's eyes.
Sparkling eyes? Phew, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but want to laugh again.
"Thank you, Pipa Ghost, you play the pipa really well."
"A very beautiful song."
…
"Your grimace is also very funny."
Seeing Pipa Ghost's increasingly shining eyes, Xiao Xiao laughed a little. It seems that Pipa Ghost always doesn't get the proper response to the faces he makes, right?
"Then the rain has stopped."
"The car is here too."
"I gotta go."
"Coffee~" Perhaps because of listening to the beautiful music, Feifei, who has always been aloof, also called out to the Pipa ghost a few times.
"Drink~"
The Pipa Demon took back its eyes and tongue that were hanging out, but opened its big mouth again, grinning all the way to its ears.
