Chapter 460: Little NPC and Player Boss 38
Song Yiwan thought: "Could the secret of the manor owner be related to soul trading?"
Cha Jiu continued walking towards the annex building: "Then we need to investigate the history of the manor."
The two came to the library on the first floor.
The library is very large, almost the size of a small football field; rows of bookshelves reaching up to the ceiling stand tall, giving people a shocking feeling of an endless sea of books.
Fortunately, I called Song Yiwan, otherwise I would have no idea how long it would take if I were alone.
"Let's split up, starting from the middle bookshelf and moving to both sides." Cha Jiu suggested.
Song Yiwan nodded: "Okay."
The two of them headed in opposite directions at the same time and began to search for information related to the manor in the vast sea of books.
It was obvious that no one had taken care of this library for a long time. Both the bookshelves and the floor were covered with a thick layer of dust, and there were cobwebs in the corners of the ceiling.
Cha Jiu waved away the flying dust in front of him and continued walking deeper into the bookshelf.
There is an inconspicuous lounge hidden in a secret corner. When I pushed open the door and went in, I saw that it should belong to the owner of the manor, but it has been abandoned for a long time.
On the desk is a photo of grandma and grandpa when they were young, with gentle smiles and dignified manners.
There is also a manor notebook next to it, which records some trivial matters of the owner about fifty years ago.
It records that the hostess (grandmother) inherited the manor at the age of 20. At that time, the manor was not called Green Rose, but Ruoshui Manor, which means "the highest good is like water", reflecting the way of dealing with people of the century-old family.
Later, the hostess married her beloved, but found out that her husband was infertile, so they decided not to have children.
Later, when they were 25 years old, the couple unexpectedly took in a poor elderly couple who had nowhere to go and temporarily lived in the manor.
I stopped keeping notes this year and haven't recorded anything since.
"This old couple who were taken in are very suspicious... they have sneaky eyes." The system squinted at the photo of the manor couple and the old couple on the last page of the notebook, and suddenly noticed something.
"Hey, isn't the parchment book in the old lady's hand the one the female ghost found this morning?"
Cha Jiu took a look and found that it was true.
Same cover, same soul totem.
So far, Cha Jiu has already made a basic guess about the president's grandmother.
She stuffed the notebook into her arms, and when she looked up, she met a pair of bloodshot eyes peering at her from outside the window.
“…”
After two seconds of silence, she quickly turned around and ran out of the lounge, shouting loudly: "Song Yiwan! Run!"
I don't know where the other person is, so I can only remind him like this!
At the same time, there was a loud noise of window glass being smashed behind me!
The system started beating its heart again: "My heart rate has never dropped below 100 while I was doing the mission with you!!!"
Cha Jiu felt a cool breeze blowing from behind, and driven by his sixth sense, he bent down and rolled to the side.
Sure enough, the place where she had just stood was swept across by a giant electric saw!
Fortunately she dodged, otherwise she would have been broken into two!
The one who attacked her was a large man over two meters tall, with a dog's head and a human body. He was grinning and had foul-smelling, sticky saliva flowing from the corners of his mouth.
It stared at Cha Jiu who dodged the attack with its green eyes, growled, and rushed towards her again with the electric saw!
Cha Jiu picked up a chair and threw it over, but it was cut in half by an electric saw like tofu.
Can't beat!
run!
She no longer tried to confront him head-on, and rushed straight to the library door!
Unexpectedly, although the dog-headed man looked stiff in his limbs, his movements were very flexible. He swung the electric saw in his hand and smashed the switch of the door.
Finished.
Song Yiwan, who had already escaped from the library in stealth, and Cha Jiu, who was trapped inside, thought at the same time.
The Kobold laughed and chopped down on the head with the chainsaw!
At this moment, a hand quickly pulled Cha Jiu aside and hid in the gaps between the densely packed bookshelves.
Cha Jiu's back was against the bookshelf, with a warm and solid chest in front of him.
She looked up in surprise: "Yan Yan, why are you here?"
Doctor Yan lowered his head and was about to say something, but his line of sight accidentally touched the girl's collar, which was twisted and opened due to her large movements.
The soft and delicate snow scenery is in full view.
His face flushed and he stuttered as he spoke: "I, I just happened to be passing by."
The system sees through everything but smiles without saying anything.
Cha Jiu suddenly realized: "You are worried about me, so you followed me to protect me, right?"
Doctor Yan was stunned.
Is this what he just said?
Oops, maybe I was distracted and said what was on my mind
On the other side, the dog-headed man who couldn't find anyone had started to go crazy. He wielded an electric saw and madly chopped down the bookshelves, trying to destroy all places where people could hide.
Doctor Yan quickly changed the subject: "It's not safe here. Let's go back and talk about it."
He took Cha Jiu's hand and was about to leave.
"Hiss." Cha Jiu moved, and immediately revealed a look of pain, "I think I sprained my ankle."
Doctor Yan's heart ached, and without caring about being shy or not, he immediately picked her up and walked towards another exit.
The journey was smooth and I didn't encounter any players or servants of the villa.
I don't know if it's a coincidence.
In other words, all the dynamics in the manor are actually under his control.
…
Back in the room, Doctor Yan gently placed Cha Jiu on the bed, took out the medicine box, squatted on the floor, and carefully held her feet to apply medicine.
"Does it hurt?" He lowered his brows, concentrating on applying the medicine, and also asked her about her feelings with concern.
Cha Jiu stared at his familiar features and asked instead of answering: "Why are you helping me?"
Doctor Yan paused.
He looked up at her.
The other person's eyes were as clear as a mirror, and he could even see his own reflection completely in them.
It's an amazing feeling.
It was as if he occupied her entire vision and all her thoughts, as if she was born only for him.
There was a moment when he wanted to greedily monopolize this feeling forever.
"No reason. Whenever you are in danger, I will lend a hand to save you, no matter what the cost."
He said slowly and firmly: "And I believe that both me in this world and me in your dream will make the same choice."
This time it was Chajiu's turn to be stunned.
Indeed, he was not exaggerating.
Even though Yan Wugui only had a 50% chance of winning against the Mountain God, he never thought of giving up on her.
Not to mention that later on, in order to get her, he chose to make a loss-making transaction with the game.
His sincerity may be silent, or his words may not match his heart, but it will never be discounted.
Cha Jiu felt her nose a little sour.
She leaned over and hugged the half-kneeling Doctor Yan, buried her face in his neck, and said in a muffled voice: "After this is over, we will live together and never leave each other again, okay?"
Doctor Yan was a little bit overwhelmed when she was held in his arms, but when he heard her begging voice with a hint of tears, he couldn't bear it anymore and used his other clean hand to gently pat her back to comfort her.
Just like before.
"Okay, we will be together forever and never separate again."
