He was a little curious as to what kept the monster at the door.
"ah?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."
"You can look at it as you wish."
A boy's room is not a girl's boudoir.
Besides, the other party is also a boy, so there is nothing to avoid.
He thinks that his house is quite clean.
Not afraid to meet people.
...
"that......"
The young man followed Xiao Xiao, "My house is quite special..."
"is that true?"
"Why is my house special?"
"I also want to know."
Xiao Xiao walked unhurriedly and had a panoramic view of the surrounding arrangements.
"ah?"
The young man was a little surprised and a little disappointed.
It turns out that Xiao Xiao didn’t know either.
"I'm looking for it."
Xiao Xiao let go of his perception.
It can detect the breath of monsters and form a barrier like a barrier to prevent monsters from entering...
There should be some kind of treasure in the young man's home...
I just don’t know what kind of treasure it is.
...
"try to find?"
After a moment of confusion, the young man understood.
It seems that something in his home has such a magical effect.
You can actually stop the monster at the door...
Is it something like a jade pendant?
Isn’t that what is written in novels?
The young man thought hard.
Do you have a jade pendant at home?
No?
He rubbed his frown.
He is not a girl and likes beautiful accessories.
What kind of jade did he buy for no reason?
His home is a typical men's bachelor apartment.
Except for daily necessities, there is nothing miscellaneous.
The house is simply small, but it doesn't look empty.
If it's not a jade pendant... then what is it?
The young man opened his eyes wide and carefully scanned every furnishing in the room.
It was obviously a house he had lived in for almost a year, but he suddenly felt a little strange.
…
"Where is your rock?"
Xiao Xiao stopped and turned around.
The young man didn't notice and almost hit him.
He took a step back, "Stone?"
"Oh, stone."
The young man reacted.
Just now he was so focused on finding an "artifact" that could ward off monsters at home that he almost forgot the purpose of his return.
It looks like the "artifact" won't be found for a while, so let's solve the problem at hand first.
"In my bedroom."
As the young man spoke, he changed direction and walked towards a room on the side.
Xiao Xiao followed the young man.
…
The young man pushed open the ajar door of the bedroom.
"I put the stone on the bedside table."
Before the young man spoke, Xiao Xiao had already seen the stone on the bedside table.
Place in a half-open and upright box.
The young man explained, "At night, when the bedside lamp shines on the stones, the flowers inside look like..."
The young man frowned and thought for a moment, "It's like being alive."
Some were not sure whether their description was accurate and appropriate. The young man stopped worrying about wording and said directly, "Let me show you."
He walked to the window and pulled down the curtains.
The bright room suddenly fell into darkness.
The young man returned to the bedside and turned on the bedside lamp.
...
The dim yellow light shrouded the stone, and the translucent stone shimmered with golden-red light, creating soft ripples like flowing water.
The small flowers inside spread their petals with the flowing light, as if they were fluttering in the wind.
"Isn't it pretty?"
The young man's expression was somewhat dreamy.
He also discovered such a scene by chance once.
The young man who originally planned to put the stone away suddenly decided to put the stone on the bedside table.
I take a look at it every day before going to bed, and I always feel that even the quality of my sleep has improved.
…
"Alas~"
The young man sighed.
Xiao Xiao clearly raised the corners of his mouth, "Can't bear to part with you?"
Being told the central issue, the young man smiled sheepishly.
"Kind of."
"Look, such a beautiful stone..."
"Sure enough, such a beautiful stone has an owner."
The young man murmured.
He is also an incredible host.
He couldn't even try to see if he could buy the stone from the other party.
…
"Alas~"
The young man sighed again.
He thought he was so lucky that he picked up such a beautiful stone for nothing.
Sure enough, if it's not yours, it's not yours.
I have suffered for so many days.
There is only... "Ah!"
The young man shouted.
Meeting Xiao Xiao's questioning gaze, the young man sneered, "I just suddenly remembered..."
"No wonder I never hear any noise at home."
"This is also the reason why I have never seen a psychiatrist."
"If I can hear voices from morning to night, I will definitely go to a psychiatrist even if I don't want to."
"Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't even be able to get a good rest, right?"
Young people are a little scared.
"That would be really tragic."
Thinking about it this way, the young man's reluctance to let go of the stone eased a lot.
Although a stone is good, it is just a stone.
He also has no ability to take possession of it.
...
The young man picked up the box of stones.
Looking closely, the young man can even vaguely outline the lines on the petals.
It is indeed a monster's favorite thing.
The young man sighed, and then he closed the lid.
You don't have to look at it because you can't bear to let it go.
…
"Xiao-"
The young man looked up and did not see Xiao Xiao.
He was stunned.
He turned his gaze and saw Xiao Xiao at the end of the bed.
…
Xiao Xiao raised his eyes and looked at a painting hanging on the wall.
It is a horizontal scroll ink painting.
The paintings are of common mountains and flowing water.
The mountains are towering and the water flows swiftly.
The mist lingering over the water in the mountains is a bit out of this world.
The rocks are rugged and there are splashes of water.
The person viewing the painting felt as if water vapor was blowing on his face, and a cool feeling mixed with the breath of mountain vegetation enveloped his whole body.
…
"This is what my grandfather painted."
The young man walked to Xiao Xiao's side.
He also looked up at the painting.
"Your grandpa draws very well."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
this painting……
His eyes slowly scanned every inch of the screen.
…
"right?"
The young man laughed and said, "Everyone who has seen my grandfather's paintings says they are good."
"This painting was a gift from my grandfather when I found a job and moved out to live alone. He asked me to hang it in the house to prevent my house from looking too shabby."
"Don't tell me, even though it's just a painting, the house does look much more classy all of a sudden."
The young man looked around his bedroom.
The only decoration is this painting.
The stone must be returned to its original owner.
Maybe he can go to the store later to see if there are similar stones, buy one, and put it on the bedside table.
Of course, the premise is that the price is within his affordability range.
He has never bought a stone before, and he doesn't know whether it is expensive...
...
"Classmate Xiao."
The young man finally came up with a reluctant title.
"Let's go and return the stone to the monster first."
He was a little worried that if the monster waited at the door for too long, he would be in a bad mood.
