Chapter 298 Playing and Attracting

Feifei rubbed Xiao Xiao's cheek gently, and when Xiao Xiao looked over, her silver-blue eyes revealed a bit of flattering, and she looked exceptionally well-behaved.

Xiao Xiao helplessly tilted his head and rubbed Feifei's snow-white hair. The bright red demon pattern on it was particularly bright and beautiful in the dim and hazy sky.

What a monster who only knows how to act like a spoiled child.

"Chi~"

In response, Taotie pulled his gaze away from the cake with difficulty and gave Feifei a disdainful sneer.

Dog legs!

Feifei only gave Taotie the back of his head.

Taotie almost got angry again, but he barely managed to control himself.

It also wants Xiao Xiao to buy it a cake.

His gaze was fixed on the cake again, and a certain monster's eyes were wide open.

……

"Have a drink~"

The familiar evil aura made Xiao Xiao's mouth curl up into an arc without him even looking up.

"Pipa ghost."

Xiao Xiao looked at the monster who was walking towards him across the road without paying any attention to the pouring rain.

Speeding vehicles passed by it, splashing water.

The Pipa Ghost looked at Xiao Xiao, smiling shyly and happily, but did not let any car hit him.

He was still wearing a white shirt and jeans, with strands of wet hair sticking to his face.

Her eyes were slightly curved, and her long eyelashes acted like a curtain to block out the rain.

In her arms she held a dark, ancient and elegant pipa.

Walking barefoot, his pale feet were not dirty at all by the mud on the ground.

……

It seemed slow but was actually fast. In just a blink of an eye, the Pipa Ghost stood in front of him holding a pipa.

As the car lights swept past, the Pipa Ghost seemed to exist between reality and illusion in the changing light and shadow, the "ripples" were sparkling yet real.

"Have a drink~"

The Pipa Ghost, who has a handsome boyish appearance, has a youthful and clean temperament when he smiles.

Xiao Xiao was used to even this unpleasant sound and didn't feel the slightest bit of discomfort.

"Pipa ghost, hello."

The smile on Xiao Xiao's already slightly raised lips deepened even more.

This was the first time that the Pipa Ghost came over and greeted him.

Before, he was the one who spotted the Pipa Ghost first and then went up to say hello.

……

There were people taking shelter from the rain around Xiao Xiao. The sudden heavy rain trapped many people.

Even if you want to take a taxi, it is not so easy at this time.

Occasionally, if there is an empty car, you can see many people immediately rushing in, pushing and shoving, and almost starting a quarrel.

Xiao Xiao frowned slightly. Even though the Pipa Ghost was not afraid of the rain, this "drowned chicken" appearance still made Xiao Xiao feel a little uncomfortable. He wanted to find a place for it to shelter from the rain.

However, the places where we can take shelter from the rain are basically occupied, and there is really no vacant space.

"Have a drink~"

The Pipa Ghost seemed to understand Xiao Xiao's troubles, and the smile on his face faded a little, shyness remained, but with a little more brightness.

It shook its head slightly and sat down cross-legged on the ground in front of Xiao Xiao.

It was raining heavily, but it looked calm, not even its eyelids trembled.

The Pipa Ghost adjusted the position of the pipa in his arms, looked up and smiled at Xiao Xiao.

It knew that Xiao Xiao liked to listen to the pipa it played.

Every time they met before, Xiao Xiao would ask it to play a song for him.

It remembers everything. …

The sudden heavy rain caused the Pipa Ghost, who was about to play for a young girl, to stop playing.

It remembered that it was raining heavily when it first met Xiao Xiao.

Just thinking about it makes it happy.

Xiao Xiao is its first friend, and a human friend at that.

Before meeting Xiao Xiao, it had never thought that it would have a human friend.

Because it has played for so many people, but no one has ever stopped to listen to its performance, nor has anyone smiled at its performance, or said to it, "It sounds great."

The girl got into a car that came to pick her up and left.

The Pipa Ghost had no regrets, nor was he in a hurry to find an "audience".

It missed its human friends a little.

"Di Di~"

The car horns sounded so shrill and sharp that they even cut through the roar of the rain.

The Pipa Ghost couldn't help but look towards the center of the road, but his casual gaze paused when he passed by one place.

It opened its eyes wide in disbelief.

But his feet had already gone that way.

As the distance got closer, the other party seemed to raise his head as if he sensed something.

The Pipa Ghost couldn't help but call out to the other party.

In Xiao Xiao's eyes, it saw its own figure and the corners of its mouth curled up.

It heard the other party call softly: "Pipa Ghost."

……

The clear and bright pipa music flowed out from the fingers of the pipa ghost, lingering and melodious. Even the roaring sound of rain could not cover it up in the slightest. Instead, it became the foil for the pipa music, adding a bit of rich timbre.

Xiao Xiao was stunned by the Pipa Ghost's action of sitting down in front of him. He subconsciously wanted to pull it up, but just as he stretched out his hand a little, a few raindrops hit his hand obliquely, and he felt a cold feeling. However, he saw the Pipa Ghost smiled at him, and its pale and slender fingers gently plucked and twisted, and a few bright syllables jumped out, opening the prelude to the performance.

Xiao Xiao slowly withdrew his hand. No matter how many times he listened to the Pipa Ghost's performance, it was always so touching.

He slightly closed his eyes, and all the noise gradually faded away, leaving only the pipa music becoming clearer and clearer to his ears.

……

Xiao Xiao suddenly opened his eyes and looked forward, past the Pipa Ghost.

In the dark and hazy sky due to the heavy rain, everything seemed to be covered with a thin veil, making it difficult to see clearly.

However, the monster, although completely black, seemed to absorb all the light around it, making it visible at a glance.

The black floor-length skirt was flowing gracefully but did not create a single splash of water.

Xiao Xiao's lips curled slightly. No wonder the evil aura seemed familiar. It turned out to be... Yu Shi's concubine.

……

Yu Shiqi was attracted by the sound of the pipa coming from the rain.

A very beautiful performance.

It hesitated for just a moment, then changed direction and walked slowly towards the sound.

……

From a not-so-far distance, Yu Shiqie soon saw the performer sitting cross-legged on the ground.

It stopped three steps away so as not to disturb the performance that had attracted it.

It noticed Xiao Xiao's gaze, glanced at him lightly, but didn't care.

At this moment, it just wants to listen quietly to the beautiful music of the pipa.

The snakes on Yu Shiqi's body, whether bewitched by the music or influenced by Yu Shiqi, closed their mouths and made no hissing sound. Instead, they raised their heads, and there seemed to be a hint of intoxication in their usually ferocious eyes.

……

Xiao Xiao looked at the Pipa Ghost who was concentrating on playing the pipa without noticing anything unusual, curled the corners of his mouth, and slightly lowered his eyes, listening attentively to the pipa music that the Pipa Ghost was playing for him.
