Chapter 1084 The Brave Old Man
The Pipa Ghost was stunned for a moment, then slowly looked up.

Then it saw the human it was trying to scare was laughing happily.

The cane in his hand kept hitting the ground, making a "du du du" sound.

It tilted its head in confusion.

I was a little confused about the situation.

The old man wiped the tears from his eyes, calmed his breath, and then spoke, "Oh, I'm really old. I can't smile like this anymore."

There was emotion in the old man's voice, as well as a lingering smile.

She looked at the Pipa Ghost, "Are you a street performer?"

"Why did you choose an old woman like me to perform?"

Pipa Ghost:
It silently put its eyeballs back into its sockets, and then blinked.

What's happening here?
Can this human see it?

"but-"

The old man straightened his clothes that were wrinkled from laughing just now, and his hands slowly and carefully smoothed out every crease on them. His expression was gentle and calm, "Thank you for your performance."

"Very wonderful."

As if thinking of the grimace just now, the smile in the old woman's eyes became more intense, "I haven't laughed so hard in a long time."

"They all took the old woman's health into consideration and told her not to get too excited."

"Whenever the old lady wants to do something, those guys rush to do it."

"I am already old, but I am still being treated like a child."

“No freedom.”

The old man kept complaining, but the corners of his mouth were always slightly raised.

……

The old man's chattering finally made the Pipa Ghost react.

It turns out this human can actually see it.

I also saw the grimace it made just now.

However, looking at the old man's smiling face, why is it different from what it imagined?
Its ghost face...one of the Pipa ghost's eyes fell out...isn't it scary at all?

Is it funny?

The Pipa ghost stuffed the eyeball that had fallen out back into its place.

When I looked up, I saw the old man's face full of surprise, "How did you do that? It's amazing!"

The old man's hand couldn't help but touch the corner of his eye.

“Is this magic?”

The old man asked curiously.

The Pipa Ghost stared at the old man silently, trying to see something.

Although it always laughs when it sees its own grimace, this is not how humans should react.

The Pipa Ghost pursed his lips.

It has seen humans who were frightened by horror movies, screaming and looking terrified, and in serious cases even crying out of fear.

The dim scene was filled with a sense of sorrow and misery.

However, the Pipa Ghost, who had watched the show carefully from beginning to end, tilted his head.

It thinks its own face is scarier.

It was increasingly looking forward to humans' reactions after seeing its grimace.

result……

Are its grimaces not as good as those in human movies?

The Pipa Ghost felt a little aggrieved.

……

The old man looked at the boy who remained silent. After a moment of confusion, he suddenly realized, "Oh, is it inconvenient for you to talk now?"

"I've seen him on TV before... What was his name? Oh, yes, the Joker."

"They also don't talk, they just perform for passers-by."

Pipa Ghost: ...

Humph, even humans can’t understand what it said.

The old man laughed out loud, "Are you not satisfied that you didn't scare me?"

"Although the old woman is old, she is very courageous."

The old man was somewhat pleased with himself, and the wrinkles on his face smoothed out. "The face you just made can't scare me."

The Pipa Ghost glared at the old man with bulging eyes.

The old man smiled and said, "My husband really likes watching horror movies."

"I was taken away from watching horror movies. I was so scared at first that I felt nothing after watching them alone."

"Sometimes I even watch horror movies as comedies." The old man's expression showed some nostalgia and reminiscence, "The old man always likes to scare the old woman."

"The worst one was when he was lying in bed unable to move, but he pretended to be dead to scare his wife."

"Seeing the old woman crying, he suddenly opened his eyes, with a triumphant smile on his face, and said that the old woman was not trustworthy, saying that she had promised not to cry, but he still caught her."

"The old woman was really angry at the time and she hit the old man a few times."

"That old pervert."

"Is that something you can joke about?"

"But, when the old woman calms down and calls the old man's name again..."

"But the old man is really gone."

A few sparks appeared in the corners of the old man's eyes, reflecting a faint light in the sunlight.

"Really are……"

"At that moment, the old woman suddenly became extremely frightened."

"The old man...is really gone..."

"He will no longer open his eyes and laugh at the old woman's panic."

……

“Isn’t that excessive?”

"What an excessive and terrible man."

……

The old man raised his head, then subconsciously squinted his eyes because of the direct sunlight.

"Because of him, I am not afraid of any horror movies anymore."

"Because there's no horror movie like..."

What was even more horrifying was the fact that he could no longer open his eyes.

……

"Ah, sorry."

After a period of silence, the old man suddenly spoke, and the smile that the Pipa Ghost saw on the old man's face at first appeared on his wrinkled old face.

"When the real people get older, they start to be troublesome."

"I haven't told anyone about these things."

"possible-"

The old woman lowered her eyes to look at the young man who had been sitting cross-legged in front of her, "You play the pipa really well."

"It makes me say too much to you."

"Don't worry about it, just think of it as an old story."

"But, if possible, could you play another song for me?"

“A complete song.”

"I really want to hear it."

"I have never heard such beautiful pipa music before."

There was a gentle smile in the old man's eyes, as well as a hint of pleading.

Look serious.

She was really amazed by the performance just now.

So the sudden end of the program really made her feel very regretful.

If it weren't for the ghost face that appeared in front of her the next second, she would have immediately asked the other party to continue playing.

……

The Pipa Ghost looked at the human in front of him.

I didn't miss the slightly red corners of her eyes.

It nodded.

Since this human saw it and its grimace, it was naturally willing to play a complete song for it.

The Pipa Ghost's face returned to the clean and handsome appearance of a young man.

He lowered his head and plucked the strings lightly with his fingers.

A beautiful tune sounded slowly.

The old man closed his eyes slightly and listened quietly to the sound of nature.

In a trance, she seemed to see her husband who had passed away long ago.

She smiled.

She knew that it wouldn't be long before she would meet the bastard who threatened her with his own death.

It won’t be long.
