Xu Tianhu said: "I am familiar with some local families in Kaiyuan City, but outsiders are a problem.
Xu Yang nodded heavily and said, "Second uncle, don't worry, I will definitely pay attention." ” Xu Tianhu sighed, there was a faint worry in his eyes, and said: "Some time ago, you were attacked by horse bandits, and at the same time, Kaiyuan City also had an accident, I am worried that someone is trying to mess with our Xu family." ” The Xu family is a big family, and because of this, there are many enemies in the open and in the dark.
It is normal for Xu Tianhu to have this kind of suspicion.
When Xu Yang heard this, his heart couldn't help but sink.
Xu Tianhu is the number two person in the Xu family, and he himself is the first person in the younger generation of the Xu family.
If something happens to them, the blow to the Xu family can be imagined Xu Yang couldn't help asking: "Second uncle, do we have any mortal enemies in the Xu family?"
Xu Tianhu fell into deep thought, and then said: "Our Xu family has risen in the southern realm, and there are naturally many enemies.
However, there should be no one who can turn Kaiyuan City into a dead city and let countless ghosts haunt him.
If we offended someone of that strength, I'm afraid our Xu family would have been wiped out long ago. ” The uncle and nephew talked a lot, and the more they analyzed, the more frightened they became.
The affairs of Kaiyuan City are confusing and complicated, and I can't figure it out for a while.
After the two finished talking, the sky was already dark.
Xu Yang was injured, he couldn't hold on, and went to rest directly.
And Xu Tianhu hadn't slept well for several days, and he couldn't hold it anymore at this time, so he went to rest.
"It's boring."
Xu Ling'er pouted, holding flowers in her hands, she was so bored that she counted the petals.
She's a little sullen these days, and she feels so bored.
Because of the frequent strange incidents in Kaiyuan City, she was grounded by Xu Tianhu for safety reasons.
You can't go anywhere except the City Lord's Mansion.
For a lively and active girl, not being able to go out and surf is simply torment.
At the same time, Xu Ling'er is naturally more curious than ordinary people, and she is very bold.
Usually, she often calls his brother Xu Bei a coward.
She was extremely interested in the strange things that had happened in Kaiyuan City recently, and she really wanted to go out and take a look.
After counting the petals, she held her cheeks with her jade hand and made a contemplative gesture.
"The book says that there are demons and monsters in this world, and the recent strange things in Kaiyuan City, could it be that ghosts are doing it, I really want to see what ghosts look like."
Thinking of the demons and monsters mentioned in the book, Xu Ling'er's heart jumped suddenly, she was not afraid, but excited.
If you can actually see the legendary youkai, it will be exciting to think about Xu Ling'er's eyes rolled slightly, and she couldn't help but look towards the location of the door.
There were two wooden guards standing over her.
She pursed her lips and said to herself, "Alas, it's impossible to get out."
Daddy, how can you bear to lock your daughter in the yard, I'm your own daughter, you can really do it. ” Then, with a light step, she got up and walked towards the doorway.
"If you don't let it out, you won't let it out, I will go to the library to read the ancient books, and the myths and legends described in the book are very exciting."
Xu Ling'er walked out of the courtyard gate, and the two guards also followed.
Seeing that Xu Ling'er did not go in the direction of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, the two guards breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as they don't leave the City Lord's Mansion, they can't control anything else.
Xu Linger did go to the library building.
The library building of the City Lord's Mansion is very large, with a large collection of books, ancient books, files, and secrets.
In normal times, Xu Ling'er doesn't come here often.
Her mother told her that she had nothing to do and read more, so Xu Linger did so.
I'm a good boy, this is Xu Ling'er's inner thoughts.
The two guards couldn't get in, so they had to wait outside.
"Grandpa Tang, I'm here to read the book."
Xu Ling'er jumped up and shouted inside.
Grandpa Tang in Xu Ling'er's mouth is the manager of the library, an old man with half-white hair.
The first time Xu Ling'er came here to read a book, it was a few years ago, and the other party was already here at that time.
When we met for the first time, the other party also made a paper kite for her, but she was very happy.
At that time, while playing with paper kites, she asked curiously: "Grandpa, what is your name, how old are you today, how long have you been here?"

The old man showed a kind smile, touched her little head, and said, "Old man, my name is Tang Dayuan, I am seventy years old today, and I have been here for forty years. ” "Wow, Grandpa Tang, so you were here when my father didn't come here to be the city lord" "Hahaha, of course.
Old man, I have served three city lords, and if you count your father, there are four city lords. ” "Hehe, Grandpa Tang, you're really amazing."
Everything at that time is vivid.
And at this moment, when Xu Linger walked in, she didn't find Tang Dayuan's figure, and she couldn't help but wonder where Grandpa Tang went Every time she comes here, Tang Dayuan is always guarding the door.
Tang Dayuan was very conscientious, so he was able to serve the four city lords in a row without being fired.
"Grandpa Tang, are you there" Xu Ling'er shouted again.
There are very few windows in the library, so even during the day, the light is a little dim.
Xu Ling'er was a little puzzled, standing at the door and looking around.
Faintly, he saw a figure walking slowly inside, as if sorting out books.
"Grandpa Tang, it turns out that you are inside."
Xu Ling'er recognized the figure for the first time, it was Tang Dayuan's.
However, what made Xu Linger a little strange was that the other party didn't look back or greet her as if he hadn't heard her words.
"Alas, it seems that Grandpa Tang is old and his ears are not good."
Xu Ling'er looked at the busy figure and felt a little emotional.
Instead of disturbing the other party's work, she walked towards another remote corner.
The light is a little dim, and the books in the remote corners are very old, belonging to unpopular books, and few people usually read them.
And Xu Linger is very interested in the stories in the books, so she is a frequent visitor to these books.
Gonzo is a yellowed ancient book, all of which are a little torn, and it is about some sensational ghosts.
Others are not interested in this kind of book, and are even afraid, but Xu Linger is very interested, and she can't stop when she looks at it.
She was only halfway through that book last time, and it happened to be the highlight of it.
So at this moment, Xu Linger's eyes were full of fire, some excitement, some anticipation, and some excitement in her heart, and she couldn't wait to read the story behind.
Then, slowly, she opened the book.
At that moment, Xu Linger's face changed suddenly.
When she opened the book, she saw not a wonderful story, but a bright red liquid.
There was also a strong smell of blood.
The pages inside were stained blood-red.
Faintly, she saw a blood-red skull pounce on her.
"Ahh A frightened scream instantly spread throughout the entire library
