Holy Emperor's lover

When Shang Jiu arrived at the side courtyard, Mr. Liu was squinting his eyes and lying on the wicker chair, and the loyal butler never left. In comparison, his late arrival seemed somewhat unreasonable.

Hearing the movement, the housekeeper looked back, and a trace of helplessness flashed across his face. It was his cousin who received Dinah at the beginning. From the other party, he vaguely knew that she was a reserved and stable woman. disappointment.

The view of the side courtyard is good, the most important thing is the quietness, the afternoon sun is warm and quiet, scattered on people, it is extraordinarily comfortable.

Even though he was disguised as a woman, Shang Jiu was still not used to women's high-heeled shoes, especially after Mr. Liu expressed his appreciation for his simple and capable dressing style, Dinah's image became more and more neutral, wearing a white shirt A khaki vest, paired with trousers of the same color underneath, and snow-white Martin boots made a muffled sound as they stepped on the stone paved path.

Just like Shang Jiu's mood at the moment.

After being sober, Mr. Liu became more and more dependent on him. This unreasonable trust made Shang Jiu faintly uneasy.

In addition to the hands and feet in the prescription, there should be other reasons.

"Master, Miss Dinah is here." The housekeeper leaned over and said in a low voice.

Mr. Liu, who was asleep, nodded slightly, opened his eyes, and looked at Shang Jiu with unconcealable joy on his face.

"Come here, I'll show you something nice today."

That tone was as intimate as if he was talking to his most beloved child.

Shang Jiu stepped forward as he said, and helped Mr. Liu to get up. He knew better than anyone in his heart that in a big family like the Liu family, family ties are so fragile that they are no more than a piece of paper.

"Dinah just come with me, you wait here."

"Yes."

Shang Jiu glanced at the respectful housekeeper with some surprise. Although the other party was worried, he didn't make any rebuttal.

Mr. Liu led Shang Jiu into a side room in the side courtyard. Judging from the layout, it should be a bit of a surprise, and, recently, there has been no one living there.

Shang Jiu swept the dusty mahogany furniture without any trace, his eyes flickered, and the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense.

It's a bit funny to say, he thought he was fearless, immortal, immortal, if there is no accident, he will be like this in the future, until the next demon number 9 appears.

"Come, come here..."

Mr. Liu walked ahead, urging Shang Jiu in a low voice.

The corridor was a little dark and unlit, and he just walked forward, pausing every now and then, beckoning Shang Jiu to follow.

Shang Jiu's expression was slightly restrained, and unexpectedly, he thought of the "magic pupil" mentioned by Mu Ye earlier. He didn't make any comments about ominous omens, ghosts, bulls and snakes, but there was one thing he knew very well. , that is the existence of supernatural power.

The magic pupils from 300 years ago seem to be related to demons?Gu Haotian may know the answer.

After walking for about half an hour, Mr. Liu finally stopped. During the period, they seemed to have been walking straight forward with laughter, but they still made three turns. If there is no accident, they are now in the middle of the dungeon. Entrance.

"Here we are." Mr. Liu said abruptly.

Shang Jiu came back to his senses and did not act rashly. He quietly watched the other party walk forward with his hands behind his back, and knocked against the dark wall. Immediately afterwards, the lights came on one after another. A dungeon built secretly, the password for the entrance is the current owner's fingerprint, iris and twelve-digit password.

Shang Jiu was not interested in passwords, and he still stood there peacefully. As long as he wanted to, this wall couldn't stop him at all, even the strictest defense system and protective wall.

"Dinah, have you heard of 'Magic Eyes'?"

After passing the password verification, Mr. Liu looked back at Shang Jiu and asked with a serious face.

Shang Jiu nodded calmly: "Yeah."

At the same time, I added a sentence in my heart: I just heard about it an hour ago.

For Mu Ye to show up at Liu's house, there must be something that could attract him, and Shang Jiu already knew about this.

... magic pupil.

To put it bluntly, it was nothing more than a pair of purple eyes with the consciousness of a master, and after being stripped from the host, it could not rest in peace.

"Come with me." Old Master Liu waved to Shang Jiu without continuing the conversation.

The dungeon, perhaps this statement is a bit exaggerated, to be precise, this is more like a secret laboratory of a mad scientist.

In the dry and cold air, there was a pungent smell of chemicals, and the whole space was transparent and bright, so quiet that it was depressing.

Shang Jiu cut, there is no third person here except him and Mr. Liu, but he clearly sensed the third breath, which belongs to the breath of life.

It wasn't until Old Man Liu pushed open the frosted glass door that he realized that the third breath came from...

On the base of the purple crystal, a strategic sensing system is fixed, a pair of strange and enchanting purple eyes are suspended in mid-air, subtle light bursts out from the pupils, attacking the transparent glass wall.

"This is the magic pupil."

Mr. Liu said as a student, with a serious expression and a hint of fear.

300 years ago, the host of the magic pupil was born. After that tragic event, the baby was frowning, but the tragedy did not stop.

Bad luck spread like a plague.

At that time, medical technology was not as advanced as it is now, and even now, there are still many mysteries that cannot be explained by science.

Then a respected master of theology came up with a solution.

Remove the magic pupil from the host and seal it.

To put it bluntly, it was to dig out the pair of ominous purple eyes from the child.

Hearing this, Shang Jiu couldn't help shivering, for some reason, he thought of Bai Zi.

That Bai Zi, who was filled with the breath of death, and those eyes that had never been opened, looked a few steps away, clearly releasing the threatening "magic pupil" at him, and Shang Jiu suddenly had an incredible guess in his heart. .

However, the timing is not right.

Moreover, Bai Zi's request was only for him to help Liu Zheng obtain the head of the Liu family.

"Now, I will hand him over to you for safekeeping." Mr. Liu said suddenly.

It seems to be entrusted after careful consideration.

But Shang Jiu was stunned.

Isn't this a joke?

If he guessed correctly, the "Magic Eye" Liu family hides the deepest secret.

This kind of monster, which is regarded as unknown but possesses incredible power, is not just a simple collection value.

And Mr. Liu actually handed over the "magic pupil" to him, an outsider, so easily?

"Dinah, I don't know if this is your real name. But I've lived my whole life, old man. After all, I'm a good judge of people. I know your origin is not simple."

"..." Shang Jiu was silent.

This is the first time that old man Liu behaved so normally in front of him after he woke up.

"The Liu family has kept the 'Magic Eye' for nearly 300 years. This secret was suddenly leaked shortly before I fell into a coma. At that time, I expected that the catastrophe of the Liu family was coming."

As Mr. Liu was talking, a sentimental smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The ancestors of the Liu family regarded the "magic pupil" as a treasure, but in his opinion, it was more like a criminal evidence, proving that they had cruelly treated an innocent child .

It would be too hypocritical to talk about the word "cruel" now. Who is really innocent in a lifetime?

"Thought I had no chance to come back." The person who poisoned was Lu Yuan.A close friend of the son he had wanted to choose as his heir.

At that moment, Old Axe Liu really thought that he would never have a chance to wake up again, that child probably hated him...

But he still woke up.

Looking at the respect and worry on the smart second son's face, it was even more glaring, but the eldest son was so unprofessional.

At that moment, he really felt that instead of handing over the Liu family's family business to the vicious second son, it would be better to find a capable daughter-in-law to help the useless eldest son, but what a pity...

"Konoha, do you like him?" Old Master Liu pondered for a moment, then asked with a smile, seeing Shang Jiu's complexion changed slightly, and said again, "I'm a person who died once, I should have seen it through."

In the past, he was really sorry for Liu Yuehen's mother, and he wanted to turn that child into the perfect heir in his ideal, but he seemed to have failed.

Although Liu Yuehen was capable and shrewd, his thoughts were not with the Liu family. That child, he probably didn't even know what he wanted.

"I really don't have the relationship with him as you think." Shang Jiu explained weakly.

Liu Yuehen saw him with Mu Ye earlier, so... was it purely accidental?

But he didn't expect, how come his son is like this, and so is my father?Unreasonable! ?

Well, even if there was anything, it was just the "bandit chief"'s unilateral idea, so what does it have to do with him?

more importantly--

"Grandpa, I'm afraid it's not suitable for 'Magic Eye' to be given to me."
