Chapter 274 Searching
Xiao Xiao looked up at the beautiful and proud monster among the maple leaves. Just as he was about to say goodbye, a gust of wind blew by, and the maple leaves and branches collided with each other, making a crisp "rustling" sound.

The deep and shallow red waves surge up and down, drawing brilliant shadows.

Xiao Xiao subconsciously turned his head to avoid the wind blowing directly at him. He could hear the sound of the wind whistling past his ears and the faint shouts of tourists around him.

When the wind died down, Xiao Xiao looked in the direction of the eel again, but all that was left were long branches with maple leaves swaying on them, and the monster that was supposed to be there was nowhere to be seen.

Xiao Xiao subconsciously searched for the maple tree with his eyes. It was just an instinctive reaction.

He knew that the eel had left.

Because of a gust of wind, the remaining evil spirit was scattered.

Xiao Xiao smiled helplessly. He left so decisively.

But he still whispered, "Goodbye, eagle."

He saw Taotie's surprise and subsequent silence.

He knew that when it came to sealing Taotie, Ya Ya chose to "stand by and watch." He wondered if it was because he was truly helpless or because he was afraid of the person who placed the seal?
When Xiao Xiao first came here, he did intend to ask Ya Ya to help him look at the seal of Taotie.

Now, by coincidence, it was exactly what he had been thinking.

However, the good luck ended there.

Understanding the serious expression on Yuyu's face, Xiao Xiao did not force it.

He knew that Ya Ya was worried that if he unsealed Taotie without permission, he would offend the powerful person who placed the seal.

In fact, he also had this hidden worry.

When he was helpless against the seal in Taotie's body, Xiao Xiao knew that the one who put the seal was an extremely powerful being. He wondered if it was a monster, or... a human?
But if we talk about sealing, I always feel that the probability of it being a human is higher.

……

Therefore, Xiao Xiao understood Longlong's concerns and did not ask anything.

Anyway, this glutton is living well now. He either sleeps or eats every day, and likes to provoke and bully little monsters everywhere. So, it’s okay to continue like this for a while, right?
Even without relying on others, Xiao Xiao believed that he would be able to unlock the seal in Taotie's body one day.

……

The man and the demon tacitly skipped the topic of Taotie, and the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed and comfortable.

Just like friends chatting together.

……

"Coffee~"

Feifei stood on Xiao Xiao's shoulder, looked around, and felt a little regretful that Yuyu left without saying goodbye.

It's rare for it to encounter a monster that so closely matches its aesthetic taste.

The pigeon at home is small and cute, and looks smart and adorable, but unfortunately it is a little stupid.

Feifei doesn't want to lower his IQ.

The later baby spoon actually looked pretty good, with snow-jade wings and a bright red beak, but its words and actions were a bit rude.

Feifei curled her lips in disgust.

However, this duck, whether it was its gorgeous crimson feathers, its beak that looked like it was carved from jade, or its naturally gorgeous demeanor, Feifei admitted that this monster was worthy of his attention.

Of course, Uncle Feifei raised his chin arrogantly, he was still a little worse than himself.

……

After Xiao Xiao got off Xiangshan, he did not go back to school directly, but took a bus to the city center commercial district.

Since he saw the duck, Xiao Xiao thought that his luck was pretty good today, so he wanted to try to see if he could meet the Pipa Ghost.

The reason we went to the downtown business district was because every time we encountered the Pipa Monster, it seemed to be in crowded places.

Maybe it’s because the Pipa Ghost needs to select the audience who listens to its performance, so it subconsciously likes to choose more places?
He wasn't sure and was just trying his luck.

He wanted to listen to the Pipa Ghost's performance. ...

The commercial district is crowded with people, and it is bustling even if it is not the weekend.

As Xiao Xiao walked through the building, the large windows of the office building reflected brilliant and dazzling light.
It also reflects the blue sky and white clouds in the sky.

The white clouds float slowly, revealing the leisurely and laziness of autumn.

……

Xiao Xiao did not search around, but instead used his heart to sense the evil aura of the Pipa Monster.

It is not easy to spot the Pipa Fairy in this busy street and among the shops on both sides with human eyes alone.

Then, it would be better to rely on your sensitivity to evil spirits from the beginning.

Xiao Xiao walked forward slowly.

I was thinking about whether to use spiritual energy to search for the Pipa monster?

After thinking about it, I decided to give up.

After all, I just came here with the mentality of "chance encounter".

It would be best if I could meet her, but if I can’t, I can only say that I have no chance to meet the Pipa Demon today.

……

However, I am really lucky today.

Looking ahead, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and reveal a happy smile.

Isn’t the one squatting in front of the glass wall of a coffee shop the Pipa Ghost that he is “thinking about” so much?
Looking from behind, there is a figure of a young boy.

If it weren't for the demonic aura floating in the air, Xiao Xiao would have realized that this was really just a human boy.

Still wearing a white shirt and jeans.

There are also bare feet just as they were when we first saw them, and the pipa music floating in the air, so beautiful that it makes people linger.

Xiao Xiao looked into the store and saw a young man with a serious face, about thirty-five or thirty-six years old, sitting at the table opposite Pipa Gui.

There is a cup of coffee on the table.

The man was carefully looking through the text documents in the folder.

This was the content of the speech he was to give at the afternoon meeting.

This rare opportunity made the man excited, yet extremely nervous and cautious.

When I arrived at the coffee shop, the steam from the coffee had already dissipated before I even took a sip.

He didn't notice that just outside the glass next to him, there was a monster squatting on the ground, looking up at him, playing a pipa tune for him.

There is a bus stop right in front of the coffee shop.

Xiao Xiao walked over briskly and leaned against the billboard of the station with some comfort, his head slightly lowered as if he was resting his eyes, but his ears were perked up.

The pipa music that Xiao Xiao had been thinking about moved him again, and the sudden end of the music did not affect his happy mood.

But a feeling of "wasting God's gift" still arises spontaneously. Such a beautiful piece of music is always "cut off" halfway through playing. It is such a waste.

Xiao Xiao was somewhat emotional. He tilted his head and looked over, and was not surprised to see the Pipa Ghost starting to make faces.

Two big eyeballs were moved out of their sockets, with dense blood vessels crisscrossing on them like veins, and the bright red color was ominous and strange.

The long and flexible tongue wrapped around his neck, making a "heh~heh~" sound like a snake's tongue.

The already pale cheeks showed a hint of purple, giving off a disturbing aura.
