"Forgive me for taking the liberty of the duke's next songs, are they all in the same atmosphere?"

For the sake of his own and Ciri's lives, Qiao Xiu must confirm this one thing before listening to the next performance.

In the unlikely event that the rest of the performance is dominated by this cold tone, Qiao Xiu may become the first 'Chaos Demon who was frozen to death while listening to music' in history.

Ciri's words... Well, even if the skeleton didn't continue to play, and didn't find a stove or a firewood for Ciri, she wouldn't last long.

Zenas wasn't allowed to step into here by the Skeleton, otherwise Ciri would have felt much better if there was a small Zenas stove.

"That's right, these pieces are all from this sheet music, and it's the only sheet music I have."

The Skeleton Gong picked up a sheet of music with a very mutilated cover, and judging from the old marks on the score, this sheet music had been in the Skeleton Prince's hands for many years.

Isn't he a good performer but not a composer?

"That's... Lord Duke, can you let me play a song? ”

Qiao Xiu made a reckless proposal again, but the Skeleton Gong was not angry at Qiao Xiu's 'smashing the field' behavior, but in the Skeleton Gong's dancing soul fire, Qiao Xiu felt the eyes called 'banter'.

"Your Highness, this piano is an old friend of mine, and its temper is much worse than mine, and if you don't please it, it will devour your soul! Even I can't save you when the time comes. ”

The Bone Prince's hand rested on the piano, as if in response to the Bone Prince's words, the piano emitted a few notes, as if mocking Qiao Xiu's inadequacy.

"I'm willing to give it a try."

Speaking of which, even Qiao Xiu himself didn't believe it, Qiao Xiu's father wanted to train Qiao Xiu to be a pianist since he was a child, so he has been in contact with the piano since Qiao Xiu was six years old.

I practiced for half a year, and the final result was that I didn't even succeed in the exam, and then I chose to give up.

The main reason for giving up... Just like many people's childhood, addicted to games and unable to extricate themselves.

After not touching the piano for so many years, Qiao Xiu should have forgotten it a long time ago, but after fusing the memories of the third prince, Qiao Xiu's own memory was also terrifyingly clear.

Even the 'muscle memory' that Qiao Xiu had cultivated by playing the piano when he was a child actually found it.

So Qiao Xiu thinks it's no problem to play a song.

"Are you sure? The last person to challenge was a well-known composer in the human world. ”

The Skeleton Father didn't remember what the third prince had in music, and the title 'despicable human' was definitely not a good nickname in the Demon Realm.

"My tunes will please your friends."

Quite famous? No matter how famous it is, are Beethoven, Mozart, and Chopin so powerful? Qiao Xiu didn't believe that he played a "Moonlight Sonata", and the piano applauded obediently.

Oh... Qiao Xiu forgot that the piano had no hands.

Behind Qiao Xiu, there are countless classical music masters on the earth as backstage, and if you really want to compare classical music on the spot, Qiao Xiu is really not afraid of anyone.

The skeleton man didn't talk nonsense anymore, he walked directly off the stage of the performance, came to the corner of the room where there was a table, picked up a glass full of red wine on the table, and looked ready to watch the play at any time.

"Hold your body temperature and don't fall asleep."

Qiao Xiu rubbed Ciri's cheeks with his somewhat warm hand, and wiped off the hoarfrost that had congealed on Ciri's eyelashes.

Her body temperature still showed no signs of recovering in the air, and with this lethargic state, Ciri could never wake up once she had fallen asleep.

There was no stove in the room, and Zenas couldn't get in due to the Skeleton's orders, so Ciri had to regain the lost body temperature on his own.

But the clothes on her body were already soaked due to the melting of the frost, and the clothes on Qiao Xiu's body were the same, and it was almost impossible for her to retrieve the body temperature by her own strength in this state.

"It's too embarrassing to die when you listen to a performance, so I won't die so easily."

Ciri shook her head and got rid of the hand that Qiao Xiu was holding on her cheek, as if Qiao Xiu's intimate gesture made her very unhappy.

"Then please hold on for ten seconds, Miss Magician."

Qiao Xiu also withdrew his hand and walked towards the piano.

It's been almost eighteen years since he touched the piano, and even if he relies on the familiarity he finds from memory, Qiao Xiu doesn't know if he can play it well.

Qiao Xiu pressed the first key on the piano, and then Qiao Xiu felt that part of his soul was being pulled out of his body......

This piano is really weird!

But Qiao Xiu didn't feel intimidated by this, and soon Qiao Xiu's hands were on the piano and he began to play.

It's a tune that makes people sound like standing in the sun and bathing in the spring breeze, and then... Qiao Xiu really felt the sunshine!

This was not an illusion, Qiao Xiu felt a warm touch of the sun shining on his body, and a breeze blowing.

It's like lying in the sun on the grass full of flowers in the afternoon!

Ciri, who was in the cold and tormented next to her, was stunned when she heard the note that Qiao Xiu played.

A faint warmth instantly dispelled the coldness on Ciri's body, like a pair of hands slowly hugging her, and there was a feeling that made people comfortable and uncomfortable.

This kind of warm feeling Ciri can't say at all, it's just... I felt like crying a little, and my nose started to feel a little sour.

She thought a lot about the days when she ran away from home and lived alone in her early years, and kept telling herself to live strongly, but because of loneliness and helplessness, she felt wronged but had no place to vent.

Until her eyes looked at Qiao Xiu, who was playing the piano there, she gently touched her cheek with her hand, and the warmth left by Qiao Xiu covering her cheek just now seemed to remain there.

Immersion, all the people present seemed to be immersed in the soft and warm tones of the notes overflowing from Qiao Xiu's fingertips.

Even the Skeleton Gong was no exception, he stood there without even noticing that the cup in his hand had fallen to the ground.

Music can really awaken a lot of things to a person, unlike movies, novels, and paintings that take a long time to move a person, music wants to touch a person's feelings, it only takes a moment, a note.

It was only when this soft tune was about to reach its climax that it suddenly stopped.

The Skeleton Male also came back to his senses from this warm atmosphere.

"Go on! Why stop! The skeleton asked loudly.

"Uh... I won't play it later. ”

Qiao Xiu's hand was removed from the piano, although he had not participated in the exam, Qiao Xiu's piano level was between level three and four, and the part behind this piece was very simple and super simple for the piano god, but it was not something that Qiao Xiu could play.

"Can't play?! You! ”

After so many years, the skeleton man finally tasted what it was like to be aggrieved again, and the sense of grievance that the song had just gotten better but stopped abruptly made the skeleton so angry that he wanted to beat someone!

"What's this song called?"

I want to know what this song is called more than this skeleton.

"Canon in D major, originally meant melody, was written by John Pachelbel, a great composer." Qiao Xiu said.
