There are seven books in total, and they are piled on the desk almost half a meter high.
“Let’s read them one by one.”
Habitually check your phone before engaging in formal study.
The phone screen shattered into a flower reminded Lu Yuan that it was time to go to a mobile phone repair shop.
I opened a few unread messages and took a look at them.
Most of them were sent by Cheng Yue, the thin girl I just met in the library this morning.
She asked him about his books and said that if he needed help, let her know. She knew many seniors in different majors.
Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile and sent her a few words of thanks in reply.
Scroll down further, ignoring the few useless messages from Cheng Peng and the boring Aite in the class group, Lu Yuan's eyes stayed on a certain contact.
——Lao Jie (Lu Jing).
Click to enter the conversation with Lu Jing, and the chat history stays at three days ago.
【Sister, make a video.】
Lu Jing did not return.
It’s still a long way to go up.
There are very few speeches belonging to Lu Jing, only a few.
Since the last video with Lu Jing, she mentioned that the archaeological team went to the temple ruins and someone died in an accident.
The communication between the two became intermittent.
When Lu Yuan sends her a message, it often takes a day or two or even longer for Lu Jing to reply.
Will something happen?
Lu Yuan felt a little worried in his heart, thought about it, and sent a message.
【Sister, grandpa is discharged from the hospital today. Can you make a video call tonight? He wants to see you.】
Originally, I was planning to leave it alone after sending the message.
I never thought that Lu Jing would come back instantly this time.
【In the evening? Okay, I'll take a look and call you when I get a chance.】
Lu Yuan perked up and hurriedly continued sending messages.
【Sister, how are you doing recently? Why do you never get a reply when I send you messages?】
【The signal is not good...Busy.(sigh)】
【Where was the temple dug? Last time you mentioned the dead, you didn't say anything about the follow-up! (Anger)】
【Xiaoyuan...】
At the top of the chat box, the note name of the elder sister (Lu Jing) jumps to "The other party is typing..."
But Lu Yuan waited for a long time, and there was no movement on the other side of Lu Jing.
It wasn't until Lu Yuan couldn't wait to type a few more "?" that Lu Jing's reply popped up.
【Xiaoyuan, sister is very tired these days, can I talk to you later?】
Lu Yuan stared at this sentence for a long time, and the image of Lu Jing typing a lot of words on the phone appeared in his mind, but in the end he deleted them all one by one.
【good.】
Lu Jing replied with a cute expression (obediently), and the brief exchange between the two officially came to an end.
Lu Yuan sat silently at the table, his brows slightly furrowed.
His intuition felt that Lu Jing seemed to have experienced a lot during this period, but she refused to talk about it.
“Is it because you’re worried about us?”
At this point, the personalities of their families are very similar.
Whether it’s Lu Yuan, his grandfather Lu Yueping, his father Lu Xinghua, or now Lu Jing, when something goes wrong, he grits his teeth and carries it, covering it up tightly, not wanting his family to know at all.
Sometimes I can’t help but think about it even when I’m far away.
Is this the reason why he traveled through time and came to Lailu's house?
Because he has always had this character in his previous life.
“Xixu and Jiaoyan are separated by more than 3,000 kilometers, and I am in the vast sea of sand.
Even if I knew what happened, I couldn't do anything to help her.
At this stage, it is better to deal with the matters at hand first..."
Lu Yuan shook his head, put down his mobile phone, took out the top book from the pile of information books at hand, and placed it in front of him.
"Exploring the Middle Ages: Ventuas, Lord of the Crypt"
This is one of a series of books, which combines a large number of epic legends and some of the author's own speculation and imagination, and is closer to a novel story.
【Remember the domain name of this website s520.

So Lu Yuan didn’t turn on [Absolute Concentration], and just read it like a novel.
Time passes little by little with the ticking sound of the small alarm clock.
I don’t know how long it took, but Lu Yuan finished turning the last page of the book in his hand.
At this time, the notebook in his hand was already filled with dense writing.
This is a habit Lu Yuan developed after becoming a top student. No matter what book he reads, he will subconsciously take notes.
【The name Fantuas comes from the transliteration of the ancient Dorian word "Lord of the Crypt"】
Ventuas, the Lord of the Crypt, claims to control all the treasures buried deep underground in the world.
Have infinite strength, wealth and power, and enjoy endless life...]
It is said that He has the head of an ox, the eyes of an elk, the body and limbs of a tiger and leopard, and the wings of a vulture.
But there are also rumors that He would often transform into a handsome young man dressed in luxurious clothes, and appear from the end of the foggy wasteland with a rat and a centipede on the second night of the full moon.
Then, before the sun rises the next day, step into the crypt again.
...】
【Vantuas is a moody evil god. He may grant his followers eternal life and wealth, or he may suddenly take away your soul in the next second.
It is said that Fantuas once used a bone flute to summon hundreds of millions of hungry rats from the ground, turning the most prosperous capital city in ancient East Lunsa into a dead city overnight...】
In these fragmentary notes, all words related to rats have been highlighted by Lu Yuan.
The computer on the desk has already been turned on.
The search record for information about the White Mountain Era and the Crypt Master ran to dozens of pages, and the screen was so stuck that it was almost impossible to move.
The most recent web page shows an eight-year-old news item from the Far Star Federation's Conrad State. It says that in a small town in the eastern part of Conrad State, many things happened in one month.
There were incidents of cave monsters attacking passers-by.
The crypt monster is a local legend in Conrad, which refers to a kind of monster that lives underground, looks like a rat, and is cruel and cunning.
Attached to the news was a picture of a burrowing monster that I didn’t know where to find, but it looked somewhat similar to the rat man Lu Yuan had seen.
"The ancient Eastern Lunsa where the legend of the Crypt Master is most popular is almost an area near the current Far Star Federation's Conrad Serzhou... Ratmen and Crypt Monsters are indeed very likely to be related to this so-called
It’s related to the Lord of the Crypt.”
Of course, to find stronger evidence, we still have to start from another way.
——
Thinking about it, Lu Yuan picked up one of the last books he had never read before - "Introduction to Self-Study of Gudor Language".
This is the final key to unlocking the mystery!
“lv3 [Absolute Concentration], activate!”
Sudden feeling of falling into the water.
Lu Yuan instantly fell into the deepest state of concentration.
The thick ancient language dictionary was flipped through quickly in his hand, while the other hand held a pen and quickly took notes on the notes.
Lu Yuan’s eyes were fixed on the book, and the light in his eyes seemed to be shining all the time as data flashed by quickly.
His mouth kept opening and closing, making various slight but weird syllables.
Learn, imitate, correct...
“Ah..ka..lu..mi@#¥!”
Suddenly, the voice from Lu Yuan's mouth became louder, and he spoke a long string of words clearly.
At the moment when these words were spoken, Lu Yuan's body trembled slightly, and his whole body was completely separated from the state of "absolute concentration".
At the same time, new message prompts from the career panel also appeared in front of Lu Yuan.
….
【You have learned a new skill——[Gudor language lv1]】
【Congratulations, you have unlocked a new career panel - [Ancient Language Expert]!】
