You are not monster girls!

Chapter 124 It's not a drop tower, it's a Ding-Dong Chicken (4k)

A few days later, at Yan Yifan's coffee shop.

The bamboo wind chimes chimed melodiously as the door opened and closed, intentionally or unintentionally softening the quiet atmosphere of the café.

"Master Qing, thank goodness you were here, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."

Holding the coffee in her hands, Yun Yifei's tone softened considerably, a far cry from her usual aloof and cold demeanor.

"It was just a small favor, and I had a lot of fun."

"Have a great time."

She looked at Qingyi, who was stirring kale juice with great interest. Qingyi was still wearing the same gray-blue robe and the same small round sunglasses.

The only two changes were that the feather hair ornaments on the ponytail changed from three to two, and—

An oversized plaster patch stuck to the forehead.

"Are you sure you don't want to go to the hospital for another check-up?" Yun Yifei asked.

"It's nothing, I just fell, and I was wearing a headgear for protection, it's not serious."

Qingyi waved her hand, then sipped half of the green liquid in one gulp, her eyes narrowing as the feathers on her head trembled twice.

Yun Yifei was just trying her luck, so she paid out of her own pocket to have Qingyi fill in for her in the performance, thinking she could just pretend to sing a few lines and get through the show quickly.

As it turns out, Qingyi is not only skilled at playing the guqin, but also has excellent singing and guitar skills, and is very knowledgeable about some anime songs.

There were absolutely no mishaps during the actual performance, and she even spontaneously sang and played an instrument, bringing the atmosphere to its peak.

They turned a medium-sized comic convention into an abstract concert.

Most importantly, she only asked for a performance fee of 200 yuan and a Pikachu headgear, yet she achieved an atmosphere that even tens of thousands of yuan might not be able to replicate.

"But you fell from the stage."

Even though Yun Yifei now feels full of respect and gratitude for Qingyi, she still can't help but complain about the "leap of faith" that Qingyi performed after her song.

Having seen so many performances, big and small, this was the first time she had ever witnessed a lead singer leaping into the crowd during such a high-spirited moment, only to have the crowd scramble to make way for him, resulting in an awkward close encounter with the ground.

The last person to do this was probably Boqi-chan.

But that's anime after all, and the physical strength of people is different from that of real humans. For example, when Teacher Da Mo was pushed down the stairs by Chu Hua, nothing happened to him.

Although the stage wasn't very high, landing directly on the ground in a spread-eagle position on a concrete surface like that could easily cause injury, even for someone as skilled as Master Qing.

She hired the people, and if anything goes wrong, she'll feel really guilty.

"I'm just seeing how excited the audience is, wow, the floor of this venue is pretty hard."

Qingyi touched the plaster on her forehead, her body trembling slightly from the pain. She hadn't expected that even after some time, the wound still hadn't healed.

It's probably because the place I live isn't auspicious in terms of feng shui, and the spiritual energy isn't enough.
She only suffered minor scrapes when she fell into the pit last time, but this time she fell and swelled up so much.

No wonder he's a master; his thought process is truly unique.
"They don't know Master Qing, so why would they go to pick him up?"

Yun Yifei complained that after the waiter served the tea and snacks, he pushed them to Qingyi and, seeing that Qingyi was enjoying them, asked her:

"By the way, Master Qing, what was the name of that song you improvised on stage? I don't think I've ever heard it before?"

Ultimately, it wasn't just Qingyi's abstract lines that ignited the atmosphere, but more importantly, her accompanying music.

"That was just something I sang on the spot, just a line or two~ That's life."

After devouring the tea snacks in the same way that Pigsy ate ginseng fruit, Qingyi took a big gulp of vegetable juice and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

She felt that besides Lin Muran, Yun Yifei was probably the second most generous person in the world who would treat someone to a free meal and drinks, and she had to make friends with her.

"A flash of inspiration?"

Yun Yifei recalled how Qingyi sang and played the guitar at the scene, and subconsciously read out the lyrics.

"Wrong, wrong, it's not a drop tower, it's Dingdong Chicken, that's the core."

Qingyi was very dissatisfied with Yun Yifei's superfluous act of arbitrarily altering her lyrics.

She gently placed the fork on the small porcelain plate, and after confirming that no one was around, she cleared her throat and began to sing a cappella.

Is he riding a wheelchair?

crashing into the windmill

That's what will remind you~
It turns out my surname is also Tang.

Baby, our relationship is like a ding-dong chicken.

Let me speak forcefully.
But I can't produce the sound of love~
There's a game that makes you feel younger the more you play it.
It's the mobile game Peacekeeper Elite.

Nobody here calls you "brother".

Because they'll all call you a primary school student~
"Ahem, retelling a story isn't the same as making it up, and adapting it isn't the same as making it up randomly. Even if we're friends, I still have to correct you, you know?"

After Qingyi finished singing, she didn't care about Yun Yifei's reaction. She took a sip of tea and acted nonchalantly.

When she spoke, she specifically mentioned that she and Yun Yifei were friends, to test Yun Yifei's reaction.

Judging from this, Yun Yifei probably won't suggest splitting the bill when it's time to pay.

The venue was too noisy before, and Yun Yifei was standing quite far away. With the added effect of the accompaniment, she actually thought the song was surprisingly good.

But after hearing Qingyi sing it a cappella at such close range, she seemed to understand why the people in the audience were so excited, like they'd set off a firecracker.

Should I say that good lyrics don't discriminate against good music, or that good music doesn't discriminate against good lyrics?
"No, as expected of Master Qing, he's surprisingly up-to-date." Yun Yifei could only pretend to clap, having given up on complaining.

It's hard to believe that this expert's online surfing skills are already on par with mine.

But she didn't even have a cell phone.
so weird.

"When things are bad, change is necessary; change leads to progress; progress leads to longevity. How can one seek immortality and enlightenment by staying with old things all day?"

Although I ascended to the celestial realm long ago.

Seeing that Yun Yifei was about to lose her composure, Qingyi suppressed her laughter and continued to maintain her persona as a charlatan.

It's useless in front of Lin Muran because he's a monster expert.

Yun Yifei is just an ordinary person, so she should be able to successfully establish her persona.

"Seeking immortality and inquiring about the Dao."

Yun Yifei wasn't very interested in any metaphysics other than marriage; at most, she would just listen to it for amusement.

However, with the recent release of a new video by a monster expert, she has become slightly interested in "ghosts".

"Master Qing, do you think ghosts exist in this world?"

"Yes, but you can pretend you don't. Look, there's one right next to you right now."

When Qingyi was suddenly asked this question, the feathers on her head shook, and she gave a casual reply.

In a place like the Upper Realm where spiritual energy is scarce, it's not impossible for "ghosts" from horror movies to emerge. However, to her, shapelessness makes no difference. Even if it's wearing red, Xia Li could easily slap it away. What's there to be afraid of?

".oh."

Yun Yifei wasn't as startled as Qingyi had expected. Her expression didn't change much, and she calmly patted her shoulder.

As long as it's not like the Ghost Princess Lin Muran described in her video, then there's nothing to be afraid of.

"You are not afraid?"

"More than being afraid, I'm curious whether what's said in this video is true, and I'd like to ask Master Qing for clarification."

The part where Lin Muran explained the ghosts didn't have any suggestive scenes. Most of the drawings were concentrated in the climax and the ending. It's quite useful as an electronic pickled vegetable.

Besides, in Yun Yifei's eyes, Qingyi's singing and her leaping tackle that no one caught were top-notch social suicides, so she had nothing to be afraid of. She simply used her phone to pull up the video and showed it to Qingyi.

"Super Hardcore: How to Win Over a Ghost Girl #Monster Musings 07" was published 1 day ago, with 66 views, 4.1 likes, 1600 comments, and ranked 48th on the homepage.

Yun Yifei did not turn the video full screen, so Qingyi could clearly see all the information in the video, as well as the name of the content creator—Monster Expert.

The number of followers is no longer four digits, but 27.5, and there's also a little yellow lightning bolt.

Her eyes flickered behind her sunglasses; Qingyi felt as if she hadn't been online for a year.

When I first started following Lin Muran, he only had a few thousand followers. How come he has almost 30 followers in just half a month?

Shouldn't his rebellious disciple and that stupid dragon be nothing more than side effects to him?

Moreover, when I last looked at it, it was only 04. How come three videos were produced in such a short time? It's not like the speed that human painting should have.

You're cheating, aren't you?

Qingyi was taken aback by Lin Muran's ability to simultaneously update videos at a high speed while handling two others. If she weren't trying to maintain her image in front of Yun Yifei, she might have exclaimed: "Prolific like a sow!"

It seems he's got money now. Once I finish this order, I can probably go over there and freeload off him.

I am Xia Li's master, I should at least give him some face, right?

Now, she didn't dare to speak, she just stared at her phone screen and swallowed.

The three icons below are all pink, indicating that the user will recommend the video to others and give it a three-click like, clearly showing that they really like the video or the uploader.

The seemingly aloof Yun Yifei actually enjoys watching these borderline videos, a strange contrast that is surprisingly amusing.

The first half of the video explains the Ghost Princess and Qingyi's experiences, which are probably what Xia Li is telling Lin Muran. But these are just appetizers.

The most important part is the second half, the borderline segment. Qingyi is very curious about how much Lin Muran has matured and improved during this time, and whether his borderline skills have become even more extreme than before.

In addition, since this video features Ghost Princess, she wanted to see what new tricks Lin Muran could come up with with these lonely ghosts dressed in long skirts.

Lin Muran's videos generally start by explaining the species, in order to illustrate the strategy based on the characteristics of the species, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the experience with a sense of curiosity.

The explanation is almost finished, the progress bar is more than halfway done, and we're about to get to the most crucial part.

Qingyi was so engrossed in watching that she couldn't help but rub her hands together under the table, eagerly anticipating what would happen.

Just as the video mentioned Ghost Princess, Yun Yifei snatched the phone back and pressed the side button as if adjusting the volume.

Fortunately, Qingyi had watched the video several times before showing it to her, and she even remembered exactly when the illustrations would appear.

As a reclusive master, Qingyi would certainly scoff at such obscene things, and for the sake of her image, she couldn't let her see them.

Yun Yifei glanced at the ghostly girl in tattered clothes on her phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Master Qing, what do you think?"

"Well, that's a bit of an exaggeration, but it's clear he's done his research."

Qingyi pretended to be profound and said, "Ghosts and monsters are just for fun and curiosity; there's no need to take them seriously."

Damn it, why did they cut it off at the most crucial moment?!
Without erotic pictures, there's no soul! As a fan, don't you understand, Xiaoyun?!

Surely no one actually watches Lin Muran's videos because they're hardcore, right?

Seeing Yun Yifei's hesitant and timid manner, she was furious. She was certain that if Yun Yifei had someone she liked, that person would take advantage of her.

"Oh"

Yun Yifei had expected Qingyi to add something or refute her, but she only received a few words of nonchalance, which made her feel relieved.

This certainly fits my stereotype of a wise person.

"Master Qing, have you ever thought about using it as an account? With your ability to draw music, creating an account should be a piece of cake."

After all, Qingyi herself said that she should be open to new things. If she could create a new account, it would definitely become a hit.

If I had a legitimate status, I might actually have gotten involved.

"I don't really like the disputes on the internet, and playing music is just a trivial hobby of mine."

Qingyi sighed and finished the rest of the vegetable juice: "Besides, I'm not short of money, I don't need to rely on this to support myself."

“Master Keqing, you still owe me a few hundred yuan before this stand-in performance.”

"Um, how can the affairs of a cultivator be called money? This is called cause and effect."

"cause and effect?"

"If I didn't owe you money, you wouldn't have kept remembering me and then rushed to find me this time, right?"

Yun Yifei didn't speak, but she felt that what Qingyi said actually made a lot of sense. At first, she didn't have a deep impression of Qingyi. If it weren't for the several times she chased after her and Qingyi asking her for money, she probably wouldn't have thought of asking her.

Qingyi wiped the sweat from her cheeks and continued making things up: "My usual place is very spacious; most people can't live there."

"."

Yun Yifei sipped her coffee through a straw, her eyes filled with distrust: "Master Qing, are you talking about nature?"

Out of courtesy, she did not add the bridge arch and abandoned factory at the end.

She didn't believe that someone who sang in cafes every day and had to borrow money for food could live in a nice place.

Even highly skilled people are no exception.

"Hey, hey, hey, of course I'm talking about a house, okay? Stop, I know what you're going to say. First of all, it's not a bridge or an abandoned factory, it's a real, large house." Seeing that Yun Yifei was about to complain again, Qingyi immediately pressed her finger to the other's lips to interrupt the spell.

"So, Master Qing, where exactly do you live in that big house?"

Yun Yifei's curiosity was completely piqued. Before Qingyi had even fully sat back down, she immediately asked as soon as her fingers left her seat.

"Sigh, is it too late to hide it anymore?"

Qingyi sighed and shook her head: "Give me your phone and open the map. I'll mark it for you, and I can take you there without any problem."

When Yun Yifei got her phone back, her face darkened as she saw the address on it, and she couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

He is indeed a master.
