"You can read it upside down." Tang Bai reminded.

Elijah turned his head and glanced at Tang Bai, turned his gaze back to the inscription on the mirror body, and read the letters of erised upside down according to Tang Bai's reminder. <-seduction-seduction-heart-de. ”

"As you can see, it's a mirror, a very special mirror. It reflects what a person's heart desires most. Other than that, it has no capabilities. Don Bai stood up and walked over to Elijah and stood side by side with him.

"Where did you get this mirror?" Klaus looked at the mirror with a somewhat complicated expression. His spirit was much tougher than that of his sister Rebecca, and although he had almost indulged in the illusion reflected in the mirror, he had been able to use his control to wake up from the illusion that seemed to be real, even without Elijah pulling him away from the mirror.

"I got it by accident." Tang Bai replied.

"I love it." Rebecca's eyes were full of envy and surprise.

Among the four siblings who are still active, Rebecca is the one with the worst self-control and the most easily affected by emotions. For more than a thousand years, when she kept her surname, she always insisted on a naivety and kindness that did not belong to her.

With the pampering and help of several older brothers, Rebecca has never been stingy in expressing the people and things she likes, and has done her best to possess them. Despite those who like it, most of them will bring her hurt again and again.

"It's time for us to go." Klaus reached out and wiped the corners of his mouth, grabbed Rebecca's wrist with one hand, and dragged her hard in the direction of the door.

"I love this mirror." Rebecca struggled twice, but did not break free from Klaus's palm, and suddenly felt a little aggrieved in her heart. If you like it, you have to get it, this is Rebecca's insistence. As much as she likes, most of them are things that mean nothing in the eyes of her brother Klaus.

The queen of the ball, the center of attention, and the girl's unique dream of love.

These things that are almost worthless in the eyes of Klaus's brothers are what Rebecca has always pursued, although when she fails to achieve her goal, she will also use some vampire special means to ensure that her wishes are achieved.

"Sober up, my little sister, everything in that mirror is fake, unreal. We don't need it. Klaus angrily pulled Rebecca hard, pulling her body apart.

Elijah looked at Klaus and Rebecca, and showed a helpless look to Tang Bai: "I'm sorry, it's time for us to leave." ”

"Wait a minute." Tang Bai spoke up and stopped the three people who were about to walk out of the room.

The three Elijahs, who were stopped by Tang Bai's abrupt voice, looked at him with inexplicable expressions. But Tang Bai, who said that, ignored Elijah's suspicious gaze and waved his wand under the gaze of the three of them.

With the wave of the wand, in the sound of Tang Bai's muttering incantations, the items that were clicked seemed to come to life one by one, changing according to Tang Bai's wishes.

The wooden table in the room, which is said to be more than 100 years old, "snapped" and "snapped", instantly disintegrated under the gaze of everyone, and all parts fell apart. Immediately after that, the wide wooden tabletop suddenly seemed to be as flexible as paper, and it folded like origami under the dancing guidance of Tang Bai's magic wand in his hand. In just a few moments, an empty wooden box was born on the ruins of a wooden table.

Standing by the door, Elijah with his palms on the doorknob, looked at this scene strangely, guessing Tang Bai's intentions.

After applying a few traceless stretching spells and reinforcement spells on the wooden box made on the table, Tang Bai's arm holding the wand waved sharply, and the wooden box also swung with the wand, and the bottom of the wooden box seemed to be equipped with a pulley, sliding all the way in the direction of the Eris Magic Mirror on the thick and delicate carpet. Along the way, he crashed into several table legs that stood in the way, and through the belly of another table, and braked sharply in front of the mirror.

The next scene made Elijah, who had survived for a long time and all kinds of strange things no longer strange, also raised their eyebrows slightly, and a trace of interest flashed in their eyes. The big, special mirror flickered twice in front of their eyes, and flew up with Tang Bai's gesture, falling straight towards the wide-open wooden box next to it.

It is very strange that compared to the huge size of the Eris Magic Mirror, according to common sense, it could not hold it anyway, and even the narrow wooden box that could only be stuffed into the corner of the mirror at best, could completely accommodate the huge mirror.

Ignoring the completely unequal diameter and volume of the two, it was like the wooden box connecting to another space, and the mirror body was so weirdly stuffed into the box. Seeing that the tall mirror body was completely submerged in the box, Tang Bai raised the wand in his hand slightly, and the lid of the wooden box closed.

Although Tang Bai was not proficient in the spell of the Traceless Stretching Mantra, he was not unfamiliar with it.

With his current abilities, it was impossible to easily expand a large, villa-like space in a small tent like those wizards who used the Traceless Stretching Charm to enter the room. But just stuffing a large mirror close to the ceiling of the room into a wooden box that is less than half a meter long, wide and high, is not much difficult.

A few nails that were pulled out of the wooden table, with their nimble tips pointing downward, stood up out of thin air at the closure of the lid and the body of the box, as if they were smashed by an invisible sledgehammer, and they were submerged in the body of the box little by little. Tang Bai, who had done all this, turned around and slid the wooden box containing the Eris Magic Mirror along the carpeted floor all the way to Rebecca's feet.

"She doesn't need this." Klaus looked at the rudimentary wooden box at Rebecca's feet, and the expression on his face looked like he was going to destroy it. Transformed into a vampire, Klaus, who had traveled a lot of places, finally got rid of his father's shadow, the influence of the family, and re-established his inner persistence and **, for that period of family life, he was attached to it at the same time, but also had a strong disgust.

He didn't like it, and he didn't need anyone to dictate to him like his father did, and he longed to be a king that no one could disobey. For this he can do not hesitate to make himself ruthless and ruthless, paying whatever price he can.

His brother Finn had been neatly sealed by Klaus for pointing fingers at him. He wouldn't mind sealing his other siblings together if necessary. Sealed until he thought he could release them and enjoy everything with him.

Therefore, Klaus is intoxicated by this mirror that can make him feel weak and seduced, but also has a kind of forced repulsion.

"No, I need to!" Rebecca broke free of Klaus's hand, squatted down and picked up the wooden box at her feet, and hugged it tightly in her arms. She looked at Tang Bai: "What do you want?" ”

"Not hostile, not involved in my business." Tang Bai groaned for a moment, as if he had just found a good excuse, his fingers caressed the corners of his lips, and he replied softly.

"I'll do it." Rebecca nodded without thinking about Tang Bai's request. Then, before Klaus and Elijah could react, they turned on the super-speed wind and rushed out of the room.

"I don't know what your intentions are in doing this, but I know very well that she can't protect it." Klaus glared at Tang Bai and walked out through the wide open door. It was Elijah and Cole, who were related to him by blood, Klaus always had a suspicion in his heart, and he naturally felt extra vigilant about Tang Bai's behavior of being attentive to nothing.

"Can you find out where they are?" Looking at the vampire ancestors who disappeared into the house, Tang Bai secretly communicated with the mirror spirit.

"Wherever there is a mirror, it is my eyes and ears. If you need to, I can monitor mirrored homes throughout New Orleans. Jing Ling's answer rang in Tang Bai's mind at the right time.

Tang Bai pursed the corners of his lower lip, "That's good, help me find a gathering place for witches and werewolves in New Orleans first, maybe in a few days, when these ancestors leave, I should go to visit." ”

"Would it be nice to give away that Mirror of Eris? Klaus was afraid he would throw it away soon. ”

"Perhaps, but I'm more sure Rebecca will pay attention to this and hide it beforehand. With that mirror, you can better grasp Klaus's whereabouts. You don't need to go into too much detail, just be sure that the other person won't be in New Orleans for a while. Tang Bai muttered to himself.

The Mirror of Eris that was sent out, in addition to being able to reflect people's inner desires as they are, also has an obscure special surname. That is, it allows the Mirror Spirit's ability to monitor regardless of its distance. This special surname is given by the twin Mirror of Eris, which is both longing and fear.

Between the two mirrors, just like the two vanishing cabinets that seem to be one in the dark, there is also a mysterious and indescribable connection. This connection allows the Mirror Spirit to wander between the two mirrors, regardless of their distance.

In the confrontation between Rebecca and Klaus, it will undoubtedly be Klaus who will win. No matter how well Rebecca hid the Mirror of Eris, it was only a matter of time before Klaus wanted to find it. But even if the plan fails, it's nothing, it's a whim-spur plan, and it's naturally good to have a good effect. If not, it's fine. Tang Bai saw this very clearly.

Tang Bai was not worried that Klaus would smash the Eris Magic Mirror in a fit of anger or something like that. As a complex and rare alchemy object, even if it looks like a fragile item, it is not easy to destroy it with pure violence.

The next day, Tang Bai returned to the house in the suburbs and began to live a simple life. The contract of the house in the French Quarter was also signed by Tang Bai after Elijah and they left that day.

This meant that without Donald's permission, Klaus would never be able to enter the door of the house again.

Living in a simple place, Tang Bai is still very busy. Various protective spells need to be applied to the house you live in.

For this large house, it was a laborious and laborious task to use magic to cast various protective spells on it alone. It took Tang Bai more than a day to squeeze out his experience every day, and it took Tang Bai more than a day to complete it thoroughly.

The rest of the time Tang Bai was spent flipping through Esther's magic book.

Some of the contents of this magic book are similar to those recorded in Emily's magic book. Considering Emily's ancestors, who were once close friends with her grandmother, Esther, this seems to be a no-brainer.

But there is still a fundamental difference between the two magic books.

Emily's spellbook is more like a spell book that records all sorts of spells.

Esther's magic book, in addition to spells, has something very special. For example, teach a wizard how to learn to control his own powers.

Witches have a lot of means to make their abilities suddenly leap a lot. For example, the connection spell that connects the power of several wizards together, as well as the possession of part of the power of a dead wizard, and some special magic rituals, etc., can make a wizard's ability instantly rise to a large level.

But this kind of ability to pull out the seedlings and fuel the same skyrocket, which is not a good thing for wizards in many cases. Because there is gain, there is bound to be loss. While taking great power into your arms, you also have to bear the corresponding price.

The most common is the rampage of power, and the burden and torture that the body endures when casting spells. It's the same as eating, every bite of food after you're full, it's a burden and torture. Controlling a force that you can't control is like dancing on the edge of a cliff, and danger is always around.

If Emily's spellbook is compared to a simple spell book, then Esther's spell book is equivalent to a detailed magic mastery textbook. Compared to spells, these Esther experiences are undoubtedly more precious and more important than ordinary spells.

Tang Bai should be glad for one thing, that is, every time he enters a world, he can understand all the languages and scripts of this world. Otherwise, he wouldn't have practiced spells, just mastering and understanding the words in these spell books would have been a chore.

In addition to decorating the house and reading the magic book, Tang Bai also kept Jing Ling paying attention to the movements on Klaus's side at all times. Seven days passed, and Klaus seemed to have decided that it was unsafe, and after packing up and packing up, he left with his family.

After getting the news, Tang Bai waited patiently for a few days, and confirmed that Klaus and they stopped in the nearby city of New Orleans, and after staying for a while, Tang Bai left the house he lived in for the first time.

Klaus and the others were indeed suspicious of Tang Bai's news, just out of caution and caution, they left New Orleans temporarily, settled in its nearby cities, and waited and watched for a while.

If the news revealed to them by Tang Bai has not been confirmed for a long time, or if there is some big wind and grass here, Klaus and them may make a comeback at any time.

If he knew the accurate traces of his ancestor father Michaelson, Tang Bai really wanted to reveal Klaus's traces to him without reservation. And lead him to Klaus and them. But as far as secret surnames are concerned, the first father knew how to hide himself better than his sons.

Tang Bai's current power in this world is still too weak. He only has more than 20 vampires under him, including Pearl. This amount of manpower, if you want to find out the traces and news of any person, it is a thing that requires a lot of time to do.

At the end of a dirty, narrow, dim alley, several low, damp houses were lined up in a staggered manner. If the information Tang Bai has gathered these days is not wrong, this is one of the places where witches live.

Near this alley is a cemetery.

New Orleans' unique location makes the cemetery very different from the rest of the world. With the exception of the French Quarter, most of the cemeteries here are hanging coffins on the ground. This is not because the people here have a very different concept than people elsewhere, or because they are nostalgic for the dead and built them the City of the Necromancy. Rather, it's a part of New Orleans, where there are swamps beneath the surface, and digging a few more feet of graves would have to pour them back, and it would be impossible to bury the bones of the ancestors. You can't soak the bodies of your ancestors in water. In this respect, New Orleans' unique cemetery tradition is somewhat similar to the customs of many Caribbean island nations.

Because of New Orleans' poor drainage system, during the rainy season, the abundant groundwater flows from the surrounding Mississippi River and Lake Pontcharttrain to the basin of Old Town, which ranges from seven to twenty feet below sea level, and the only drainage system begins to "regurgitate" and sewage flows rampantly on the cobblestone streets.

Coupled with the uninterrupted generosity of the drunks in the red light district all year round, Bourbon Avenue is always filled with the fishy smell that is characteristic of [***]. How is it that such a public health environment is not a hotbed of disease and pestilence!

Therefore, there have been several large-scale plagues in the history of New Orleans, a large number of deaths, the two coffins of ordinary tombs are not enough, and the "coffin apartment" specially renovated in a corner of the cemetery has to be temporarily borrowed. These "apartments" are much more modest than the single-family cemetery, with an oven-like structure, without any ornamentation, cast iron or statues, only the same mottled and peeling walls. Each coffin has a small square opening, and the coffin is placed from here until the family cemetery is empty, or until the frugal bones are said to return to the arms of the ancestors.

The same is true of the burial ground of the witch's ancestors.

When Tang Bai's figure walked into this alley, his clothes and unfamiliar face easily attracted the attention of the people here. (To be continued.) )
