Slender fingers, smooth jade-like skin, a pretty face, and a slender figure like a girl. If it weren't for the faint evil spirit and the unique masculine aura on his body, Li Xuan I'm afraid I have already used other shells, and I don't care if it gets destroyed once a month.

"It's just like in the legend. A boy who is cuter than a girl. Excuse me, Mr. Li, this is your letter. Wesley Desward asked me to send it." The middle-aged The messenger handed the letter in his hand to Li Xuan who just sat up with a smile.

Li Xuan saw the suspicious look flashing in the other party's eyes, and he was very disgusted. After receiving the letter in his hand, Li Xuan said coldly: "If you are a gentleman, you should know how to praise the other party in front of a man. What a faux pas for a child to be cute, sir."

After finishing speaking, Li Xuan ignored the other party and walked straight towards the classic car on the other side.

Because it was not long before the development of the New World, although cars are very popular, only a few nobles can afford classic cars. Li Xuan bought one because he thought it was new, because it was in the UK. You don't need to care about other special items needed to buy a car, as long as you have money and status.

In terms of identity, Wesley, who likes to collect books, once used this as a condition to exchange a magic book from his hand.

Although I always felt that it was not worth exchanging a magic book for a classic car, but after thinking about it carefully, it was useless to bring the magic book by myself anyway, so I was relieved.

Li Xuan looked at the elegant font on the letter suspiciously, and then opened the letter. In addition to a letter, there was also this key attached. There was a ruby ​​inlaid on the key, which looked very precious. look like.

Li Xuan didn't read the letter first, but glanced at the key in doubt, held it in his hand and thought about it.

Li Xuan couldn't help but frown because the magic power on it wasn't too strong, but it really existed. Although I don't know why Wesley gave the key to himself instead of his grandson, Li Xuan also heard from above. There was the smell of trouble, the smell of trouble that might cost you your life.

"Tch, old fox, no wonder he refuses to give away his grandson. It turns out that he is afraid that there will be no successors." After speaking, Li Xuan put the key in his pocket with disdain, and then read the letter.

The letter was written so uncomplicated, it probably means that I'm about to die, but I don't want my grandson to be as busy as me because of those broken books, so I leave this matter to you, the old man, there must be benefits, It's all my possessions and book collection, which is interesting.

"Tch, you really know how to be a man. All the property, isn't it just books, there is nothing but books, and I don't care about titles." Li Xuan curled his lips while looking at the letter, although he said Li Xuan didn't like those books at all, but at any rate, Wesley had watched him grow up. If he just inherited the inheritance or something, it would be fine. year.

Feeling idle and bored anyway, Li Xuan drove his classic car on the road.

All the way across the mountains and past the small river in the farm, Li Xuan almost felt that he was looking for Buddhist scriptures from the west.Fortunately, it didn't take long to reach the destination.

Li Xuan tidied up the black windbreaker on his body. It seemed to be the most popular clothes first, and they were all tight-fitting, so they were quite comfortable to wear.

Looking at the old courtyard and the three-storey villa in front of him, Li Xuan was quite nostalgic.

The decoration on the gate is two flying dragons and a pot. I don’t know what it represents or what it means. The chaotic garden is full of weeds and trees. I don’t know if the owner’s house is too lazy to clean it or it’s really deserted. long time.

Walking slowly to the door, Li Xuan glanced at the keyhole on the door, hesitated for a moment whether to open the door, because such an old villa looks rather dilapidated, which makes Li Xuan quite uncomfortable.

Fortunately, he was not an ordinary person after all, and no matter how uncomfortable he was, he couldn't be afraid. After searching for a while, he found a large bunch of keys from his pocket.

Seeing this large bunch of keys, the corner of Li Xuan's mouth twitched, wondering how many doors in this house need keys to open...

Pushing open the door let the sunlight in, the inside is clean which makes Li Xuan different. Of course, it is "clean" and there is no special thing to put in it. The dust is everywhere.

"Eh? Is this really a place where people used to live? It looks like no one has lived in it for several years, and..." Li Xuan looked at the dusty bookshelf beside him and said suspiciously: "Where are the books?" ? Didn’t that bibliophile say he left all the books to me? Where are the books?”

Li Xuan was stunned for a moment as his eyes swept across the ground casually. The traces of something being dragged in on the ground were obvious, like a horizontal line was drawn on a clean face with a finger stained with soot.

Although Li Xuan intends to use the Yuanshen to spy on the surroundings, the Yuanshen is still the same, and there is no way to leave the body...

Chapter 2 The Maiden in the House

It doesn't feel good to be calculated like this. The goddess seems to have used all her divine power to restrict the access of Li Xuan's primordial spirit, so as to disgust Li Xuan.

In this way, although Li Xuan was a little hesitant, he didn't feel how dangerous it was inside, so he hesitated for a while and walked in along that trace.

At the end of that trace is a bookshelf, which made Li Xuan stunned for a moment, but then laughed in the next second, mechanism, something that has existed since ancient times, even in the sleeping palace where the immortals in the sky practice. There is a similar mechanism, but what is used for its operation is not metal parts or something, but the prohibition of magical powers.

Pushing the bookshelf open, there is a door unexpectedly inside. There is no lock on the door, so it is easy to push open.

A dark staircase, with no handrails on both sides, is full of walls. It looks like a secret room, but Li Xuan can't help but maliciously speculate whether Wesley killed someone inside and left the body in it.

But Li Xuan just thought about it. He also knew Wesley's character. Although he could not be said to be as cowardly as a mouse, he was not very bold. He looked like a scholar, so how could he kill someone?

This passage is not very long, only a layer of gold has gone to the bottom, and there is a gap in the door, I don't know if it was left on purpose for others or because it was not closed tightly.

From the crack of the door, Li Xuan saw a lot of books piled up, like a hill, occupying most of the room inside: "It seems that this is where all the books are collected." But in the next second Li Xuan I was stunned, because the only ventilated place in the whole room, where there was light, was a leather chair, which was obviously used by nobles, and a girl was sitting on it with a book, and the girl was lowered. I can't see the face clearly, but the long dark purple hair and good figure have exposed the fact that the girl must be very beautiful, but it is also true that the height will not exceed 1.6 meters.

"A puppet." After taking two steps closer, Li Xuan muttered to himself looking at this cute girl.

"Why would it be placed in such a place? Is it scary? It doesn't seem to be scary at all." Li Xuan took two steps forward, ready to clean up the surroundings, but suddenly, the girl who had been judged by Li Xuan as a puppet hand He suddenly turned the pages of the book, as if he had to turn the page because he was troubled after finishing this page, and he seemed to be concentrating on his surroundings, including what Li Xuan said just now.

However, just when Li Xuan was about to say something in astonishment, the girl also obviously reflected, raised her head and looked at Li Xuan: "Who are you?"

His expression was extremely calm, but Li Xuan was a little restless. The huge lock on his chest and the metal collar around his neck made Li Xuan think of a poor girl who was locked up in the basement by Wesley for many years.

"Well, I'm sorry, I'm Li Xuan, you can call me Xuan, the owner of this mansion, the elder of Wesley Desward, he should be regarded as an uncle, at least he always calls me that." Li Xuan scratched Cheek, then smiled awkwardly.

"Wes's..." The girl was obviously taken aback for a moment, but in the next second she understood the obviously absurd seniority: "What's the matter with Wes's uncle coming here now?"

"Inherit this mansion. By the way, find out where the bookshelf of the troublesome Danterian that Wesley mentioned in the book is. The letter said it was given to me. I don't know if you know." After speaking, Li Xuan took the letter out of his arms.

The girl's nervous expression made Li Xuan instantly judge that the other party was definitely not a girl imprisoned by Wesley, but an acquaintance of Wesley. After all, Wesley was a very messy guy, and it was expected that there was an acquaintance who was underage.

"Oh, by the way, by the way, the letter seems to mention a person named Da Lian, who said that he asked me to take care of her and cook three meals a day. It sounds like a pet or something. " Li Xuan asked puzzledly, putting the letter in his hand in front of the girl's eyes.

After all, Wesley also knew that Li Xuan didn't like keeping pets very much, even the spirit fox beside him was a psychic beast: the purple-eyed silver fox!

Purple-eyed silver foxes are rare in the world. They are usually produced in the Nine Netherworld Palace and belong to one of the famous top-level spirit beasts. The supernatural power is a pair of soul-stirring purple pupils. When she is nine shed, she can pull the things she sees into the underworld at a glance, no matter whether it is a fairy or a Buddha, it is very difficult to deal with!

Of course, Li Xuan is only accompanied by the three-slough silver fox, but he also takes care of himself, so Li Xuan hates keeping ordinary pets.

"Pet, pet?" The girl glanced at the letter, and when she heard Li Xuan's words, she couldn't help but have a trace of anger in her voice, her eyebrows were also impulsively gathered together, and she stared at Li Xuan, as if waiting for Li Xuan to take back her words. The look of a sentence.

It's a pity that Li Xuan didn't pay much attention to her, but said while looking around: "Yeah, that little thing must have been hungry for many days, although it's a bit troublesome, it sounds pitiful, so I'll give it to you first." Let's make something to eat, if you defecate, you can only clean it later..."

Holding the book in her arms, the girl stood up angrily, kicked it up unceremoniously: "You idiot!"

Li Xuan took two steps back in pain, his legs were surrounded by the essence of luck, and the pain disappeared without squatting down.
