There was a dark staircase with no handrails on both sides and only walls. It looked like a secret room. Li Xuan couldn't help but maliciously guess whether Wesley had killed someone inside and left the body inside.

But Li Xuan just thought about it. He knew Wesley's character. Although he couldn't be said to be timid, he was not very bold. He looked like a scholar. How could he kill someone?

This passage is not long. It only takes one layer of gold to reach the bottom. There is also a crack in the door. I don't know if it is left for others intentionally or because it is not closed tightly.

From the crack in the door, Li Xuan saw a lot of stacked books, like a hill, taking up most of the room inside: "It seems that this is where all the books are stored." But the next second, Li Xuan I was stunned, because the only place in the room that was ventilated and illuminated by light was a leather chair. I could tell at a glance that it was used by nobles, and sitting on it was a girl holding a book. The girl lowered her head Her face was not clearly visible, but her long dark purple hair and good figure revealed the fact that the girl must be very beautiful, but it was also true that her height would not exceed 1.6 meters.

"Doll." Li Xuan took a few steps closer and muttered to himself as he looked at this cute girl.

"Why is it placed in such a place? Is it scary? It doesn't seem to be scary." Li Xuan took two steps forward, ready to tidy up the surroundings, but suddenly, the girl who had been judged by Li Xuan as a doll held her hand Suddenly he turned the pages of the book, as if he was troubled by the fact that he had finished reading this page, so he had to turn the book. He also seemed to be engrossed in it, ignoring the surroundings, including what Li Xuan had just said.

However, just when Li Xuan was about to say something in astonishment, the girl clearly reacted and raised her head to look at Li Xuan: "Who are you?"

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

"Well, I'm sorry. I'm Li Xuan. You can call me Xuan. I'm the owner of this mansion and the elder of Wesley Ward. I should be considered uncle. At least he always calls me that." Li Xuan scratched his head. Cheeks, then smiled awkwardly.

"Wes's..." The girl was obviously stunned for a moment, but in the next second she understood this obviously nonsense seniority: "Is there anything wrong with Wes's uncle coming just now?"

"Inherit this mansion. By the way, look for the bookshelf of the extremely troublesome Danterian that Wesley mentioned in the book. The letter said it was given to me. I don't know if you know." With that said, 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 under Wesley's confinement, but should be an acquaintance of Wesley. After all, Wesley was very messy, and it was expected that he would have an underage acquaintance.

"Oh, by the way, the letter seems to have mentioned someone named Darian, who asked me to take care of her and cook three meals a day. It sounds like she must be some kind of pet. "Li Xuan asked in confusion as he placed 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 following him was a psychic beast: a purple-eyed silver fox!

Purple-eyed silver foxes are rare in the world. They are usually produced in the Nine Netherworld Mansion. They are one of the most famous spiritual beasts among them. Their magical power is a pair of soul-catching purple pupils. It is rumored that as long as the purple-eyed silver fox evolves to the third level, When you are in the ninth stage, you can pull the things you see into the underworld at a glance. No matter the immortals or Buddhas, they are very difficult to deal with!

Of course, Li Xuan is only accompanied by a three-molded silver fox, but he can also take care of himself, so Li Xuan hates keeping ordinary pets.

"Pet, pet?" The girl glanced at the letter. When she heard Li Xuan speak like this, she couldn't help but have a hint of anger in her voice. Her eyebrows were gathered together as she stared at Li Xuan impulsively, as if waiting for Li Xuan to take back the words. The way a sentence looks like.

It's a pity that Li Xuan didn't pay much attention to her, but looked around and said: "Yes, that little thing must have been hungry for many days. Although it is a bit troublesome, it sounds quite pitiful, so let's give it first Let’s make something to eat. If you need to defecate, you’ll have to clean up behind..."

The girl stood up with the book in her arms and angrily, and kicked her up unceremoniously: "You idiot!"

Li Xuan took two steps back in pain. The true energy of luck surrounded his legs, but the pain disappeared without even squatting down.

The girl shook her head to the other side angrily, breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around with her hands on her hips and said, "Dalian is my name!"

"Oh, what, it's still a pet." Li Xuan looked at Dalian's cute little face and couldn't help complaining. After all, no matter how you look at her, she looks like a little pet waiting to be fed, but it's just too much. It's just a arrogant pet, and it even kicked the future owner.

"By the way, Danterian is the name of the devil. I wonder if there will be any interesting things in the knowledge of the devil. It's really exciting..."

Chapter 3 I have done many things

Li Xuan's words made Dalian stunned for a moment, and then she looked at Li Xuan unhappily and said with a preaching look: "Huh, it's because people like you exist that I keep thinking about fighting with the devil. If you make a deal and gain knowledge about the devil, the world will be in chaos."

"Let's not talk about it for now. Did that guy Wesley do anything excessive to you? If so, I'll apologize to you first for him. Although an apology is of no use, if you want to dig a grave, I will I don’t mind, it’s none of my business anyway.” Li Xuan looked at the girl’s appearance and felt that it was hard to imagine that Wesley didn’t do anything, so he couldn’t help asking with a weird expression.

"The most outrageous thing is what you are thinking in your mind right now!" Dalian angrily picked up the lighter that Li Xuan had put aside and walked out first, as if she didn't want to stay here with Li Xuan any longer. It's been too long.

Li Xuan didn't seem to care. He held up his chair and walked out.

In the kitchen, Li Xuan lit the fire and started cooking. Although he didn't like cooking very much, his bad luck was that this was his Qigong period, let alone casting any magical powers. Xuan Gong also disappeared completely. During this period, he was just like an ordinary mortal, in order to avoid the three disasters of heaven, earth and man that he had to suffer once in five hundred years because of practicing the art of immortality.

It is also for this reason that Li Xuan hates trouble and hates ordinary pets, because only the purple-eyed silver fox can protect him, and ordinary pets cannot!

"Hey, have you ever been a soldier?" Dalian looked through Li Xuan's bag on the table. Seeing Li Xuan's nonchalant look, she couldn't help but take out the bullets inside and asked.

Li Xuan looked back, was stunned for a moment and then said with a smile: "Yes, I want to experience a different life and know what the soldiers on the battlefield are thinking about."

"What's the result?" Dalian seemed to be intrigued by Li Xuan's words and couldn't help but ask.

Li Xuan smiled and said: "There is no result, it is still greed. Greed of wanting to live, wanting to live with friends, so unceremoniously taking the lives of enemies, wanting a higher-level position, wanting I just wanted more money, so after I understood the answer, there was no result, so I left the battlefield and came here."

"In your eyes, do humans only have greed?" Dalian glanced at Li Xuan with complicated eyes. She didn't know what she wanted to say, but she asked this question again.

"Probably, but isn't this nice? It's quite exciting. The excitement and luck after killing the enemy because you want to live, and the reunion between brothers and lovers are all quite good, both ugly and Wonderful." Li Xuan roasted the things in the pot and brought them over.

"By the way, just to confirm, are you really Wesley's friend? That guy has always been a loner." Li Xuan put the toast on the table, took the plate over and prepared black tea.

Dalian looked very happy when she mentioned Wesley, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly: "Yes, he is a very good person."

"Yeah, that guy isn't alone anymore." Li Xuan chuckled, took out the tea leaves, poured it into the teapot, put a layer of filter on it, and then poured the hot water in. .

Dalian twitched her nose and seemed very satisfied with the bread. She found a piece of paper and put the bread on it and couldn't help but ask, "Where is the sugar?"

"Do you want to add it to the black tea?" Li Xuan asked after putting the cup and the milk jug into the plate.

"It's not black tea, you idiot." This unreasonable accusation made Li Xuan stunned for a moment. After taking out the sugar, he watched Dalian dig something out of his pocket.

"Fried bread has always been eaten covered with sugar." Dalian found a small bottle from Li Xuan's pocket with a happy face.

Li Xuan helplessly placed the sugar in front of Dalian, put the small bottle back and said: "Although I don't know who stipulated that fried bread must be eaten with sugar, but I have to remind you, a What’s in the bottle is honey, not sugar, this is sugar.”

"Honey..." Dalian glanced at the small bottle of honey in Li Xuan's hand with some reluctance, then sprinkled the sugar on the bread and ate it with a happy face, looking very happy.

"By the way, this is what I use to fill my stomach temporarily. After all, I still have to cook." Li Xuan couldn't help but sigh as he watched Dalian eating with gusto.

Dalian said confidently: "You just said it, Dalian is so pitiful with an empty stomach."

"Hahaha, yes, yes, I forgot about it. I'm sorry, just keep eating." Li Xuan scratched his head, smiled nonchalantly, and then brewed the black tea and served it.

Seeing Li Xuan cooking there skillfully, Dalian couldn't help but asked curiously: "Have you ever been a chef? It looks like you are very good at it."

Hearing what Dalian said, Li Xuan couldn't help but feel playful. He turned around and said with a cute expression: "Do you have the urge to eat me before eating?"

Dalian looked at Li Xuan with a depressed expression. It's not that Li Xuan's current behavior is unattractive. If it were a man, he would either have too much nosebleeds and be in a life-threatening state, or he couldn't help but pounce. He went up, but to her, he clearly felt like a boy, but the other person's face was undoubtedly cute, even many women were ashamed of it, as if he was favored by God and was like an angel created by God. ; But when these two situations happen to the same person, the weird feeling can't help but make people murmur in their hearts.

"Hahaha, Dalian was fooled. I did work as a chef before, but because of the harassment from the store manager, I stopped working after only three years. I also worked as a carpenter, a deacon, and a tutor. Anyway, I can do it. I basically did everything, so look forward to it, the food I cook is delicious..."

Chapter 4: Enduring Family and Ancestral Instructions

Looking at the dark thing Li Xuan brought to the table, Dalian's mouth twitched a few times and she couldn't help asking pitifully: "What is this? A legendary dark dish that can kill people?"

"Hahahaha, Dalian, you are so good at joking. These are just green pepper potato slices that have been fried a little bit on the outside. You can eat them first. There are other dishes." Li Xuan didn't pay any attention to Dalian's words. Mind you, although he is not very good at sitting down to eat, but because he has learned from the palace chefs and the people in the royal kitchen of the Celestial Dynasty, Manchu and Han banquets are not a problem at all, if it is really compared. , the chefs of five-star hotels can only surrender. The only ones who can surpass him are those talented chefs whose cooking methods are secret or have found new ways.

"Hmm!" Dalian doubtfully picked up a dark, rectangular object and carefully put it in her mouth, but her eyes widened the next second, as if something incredible had happened.

When Li Xuan served another dish, he only found that the previous dish had been destroyed by the wind, leaving only a few scattered potato slices.

Seeing the twitching look at the corner of Li Xuan's mouth, Dalian couldn't help turning her face away in embarrassment. She changed the subject and said sheepishly: "How did you make it? It tastes quite delicious."

Li Xuan could only sigh, and while cooking more intensively, he said: "I used starch to wrap a layer of skin on the outside, because after frying the potato slices, they will either be a little harder, which will affect the taste, or they will be very soft, and they will be soft when pinched. It’s broken, but after being wrapped in starch, as long as it’s fried and deep-fried, it will be crispy on the outside and tender and delicious on the inside.”

"It was coated in starch after frying, right?" Dalian had read a lot of books after all. Although she didn't know how to cook it, she could still make a rough guess.
