Chapter 459 Spring Performance
"Gulu~Gulu~"
The suitcase's wheels rolled over the uneven bluestone floor, moving forward.
It’s still chilly in spring, but the sweet fragrance of flowers in the air brightens people’s mood.
At this time, it is spring when flowers are in full bloom and all things begin to come.
The long-lost bright colors are dotted among the dark green and light green, swaying gently in the breeze.
……
At the entrance of the alley, the light suddenly brightened, and the tiny cracks on the bluestone road were clearly visible.
Light dust is flying in the air.
The noise of traffic could be heard faintly in the distance.
……
Xiao Xiao stopped and looked up at the clear blue sky.
The boundless blue seemed to be glowing faintly.
Although the air was chilly, the sun was shining brightly, and it gave me a slightly warm feeling when it hit my body.
What a nice day.
Xiao Xiao raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"Feifei, little Taotie, let's walk to school."
……
Most of the pedestrians passing by on the street have already changed into spring clothes.
Especially for young women, a floral inner dress is very pleasing to the eye.
The streets are lined with colorful flowers, attracting passers-by to stop and admire them.
Xiao Xiao also slowed down his pace as he walked past these beautiful flowers.
He tilted his head to look at Feifei on his shoulder.
The little white monster's silver-blue eyes were glittering and shining, with a look of delight on his face.
The red demonic patterns on it flashed with a faint luster, becoming more and more vivid.
……
Suddenly, Xiao Xiao's expression changed, his footsteps paused slightly, and then he walked in a certain direction.
The faint sound of the pipa is so beautiful that it doesn't sound like human music.
……
Xiao Xiao walked neither hurriedly nor slowly.
While listening to the performance, I was looking for the performer.
……
Soon, next to a flower bed, Xiao Xiao saw the performer he was looking for.
A faint smile spread across his face.
Every encounter with the Pipa Ghost is always so sudden and so delightful.
……
Xiao Xiao did not go forward immediately because the Pipa Ghost was playing for someone.
They were two young women.
……
There seems to be no specific criteria for the Pipa Ghost to choose the person it plays against; it all depends on its own feelings.
It can play for anyone, young or old, male or female.
……
As the performance reached its climax, Xiao Xiao smiled helplessly.
Sure enough, the next second, the music stopped abruptly. Looking at the monster who was making faces and laughing happily, Xiao Xiao was speechless for a moment, then frowned.
He walked towards the Pipa Ghost.
The two young women happened to get up and leave.
……
Xiao Xiao passed by them and overheard their conversation.
“…I don’t know which store played the pipa music just now, but it was really beautiful!”
"Really? Why didn't I hear it?"
"No way? You didn't hear such beautiful music?!"
"What a pity!"
"But that bastard shop owner is going too far!"
"Such beautiful music had just reached its climax, but they turned it off?!"
"It's totally unreasonable! Incomprehensible!"
"Ah~ I'm so mad!"
"Okay, okay, isn't it just a song?"
"But I have never heard such beautiful lute playing!"
"Have you ever heard a lute played before?"
"ah!"……
Xiao Xiao turned around and looked at the woman who was a little annoyed by her friend's teasing. She was a girl with a half-bun hairstyle, with soft hair hanging down.
"Have a drink~"
The Pipa Ghost sensed Xiao Xiao's breath, turned his head, and saw Xiao Xiao looking behind him.
The eyeballs that had fallen out were retracted, and the bright red tongue that was wrapped around the neck also retracted into the mouth.
A genuine and happy smile appeared on the face of a young boy.
The bare feet hurriedly walked towards Xiao Xiao.
……
"Pipa Ghost, that girl just heard your performance."
Xiao Xiao tilted his head to look at the Pipa Ghost who walked up to him, curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and spoke softly.
"Have a drink~"
The Pipa Ghost tilted his head, somewhat confused about what Xiao Xiao meant.
"Are you not happy?"
“Someone heard you play.”
Xiao Xiao raised her eyebrows slightly, "She said your performance was beautiful."
"Have a drink~"
The Pipa Ghost nodded. Of course it was happy.
Performing is not about enjoying oneself alone. If there is no audience to appreciate it, then wouldn’t the music be a bit lonely?
Because no matter how well I played, I never got any praise or even a smile.
"Really? I thought you'd be happier."
Seeing the Pipa Ghost's reaction, which seemed a little bland to him, Xiao Xiao walked over to the chair where the two women had just sat, took out his earphones and plugged them into his ears, with a look of curiosity and confusion.
“Drink, drink, drink~”
Because it has already met Lord Xiao Xiao.
It is not that its performances are without real audiences.
One such listener is enough.
……
Moreover, the human woman would not ask it like Lord Xiao Xiao did: Why don’t you finish playing a song?
Nor would I ask it: Can you play another song for me?
……
Xiao Xiao was stunned by Pipa Ghost's words. Looking at the serious expression of the young monster, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, his eyebrows curved, "Then, Pipa Ghost, play another song for me."
"Have a drink~"
The Pipa Ghost nodded happily.
It sat next to Xiao Xiao, holding the pipa.
Xiao Xiao turned his head, and the Pipa Ghost gave him a shy smile, with a faint blush on his pale, slightly blue cheeks.
It made the Pipa Ghost look much better.
……
The next second, the strings trembled slightly, and the bright and melodious pipa music flowed out from the fingertips of the Pipa Ghost like a gurgling stream.
The moment the music started, Xiao Xiao felt that time had stopped and everything was silent. Only the sound of the pipa lingered around the world and moved his heart.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression calm but with a hint of intoxication.
Feifei and Taotie both closed their eyes in ecstasy, listening to this heavenly music.
……
After the song is over, the lingering sound lingers in my heart.
After a long time, Xiao Xiao slowly opened his slightly closed eyes.
I just felt the sky was bright, the breeze was gentle, and the fragrance of flowers was refreshing.
My mood is clear and full of the breath of spring.
Indeed, "No matter how many times I listen to your performance, it's always so beautiful, Pipa Ghost."
Xiao Xiao spoke with emotion, a hint of smile flowing out of his face.
"Coffee~"
Feifei couldn't help but shout a few times, and the little monster, who was always indifferent to monsters, showed a friendly smile to the Pipa Ghost.
"Ouch~"
Taotie looked at the Pipa Ghost below and gave his praise quite reservedly.
……
"hehe."
Xiao Xiao chuckled, "Fei Fei and Xiao Taotie also like your performance, Pipa Ghost."
"Have a drink~"
The Pipa Ghost tightened his grip on the Pipa a little, and a huge smile broke out on his face.
Although the curve of his mouth was a little exaggerated, Xiao Xiao felt that it was still a very good smile.
