Prologue The heart flows, and the mind hurts secretly Chapter 53 Investigate the wooden box

[Xue Liyue: This identity is not useful at all times, for example, when protecting you, it seems useless at all. 】

"Uh... Shizome opened her eyes again, only to find that she was in her room, and she only remembered yesterday eating pastries, and she couldn't even remember anything else.

She was about to get up, and she was once again involved in a splitting headache, and it seemed that the injury that came out of the ethereal space was still not good.

She was hit hard by the spirit sense of the ethereal space at that time, even if she recuperated for so many days, her life was saved, but the headache was still from time to time, and she couldn't enter her spirit sense now, I don't know if Xiao Jiu, who was recuperating in it, was affected.

"Are you awake?" Xiran made some small movements inside, and Xue Liyue immediately came in from outside, still holding a bowl of steaming decoction in her hand.

"You, what is this?" Xi Ran looked at Xue Liyue with a surprised look on his face, and stopped to get out of bed.

"Yesterday I thought you fainted because you were heartbroken, but I didn't expect someone to show you only to find out that your spiritual sense was damaged, because of the ethereal space?"

Xue Liyue came to Xiran with the decoction, blew gently, scooped a spoonful and blew again, and sent it to Xiran's mouth.

"Well, you know everything." Xiran obediently opened his mouth and drank the spoonful of medicine, instantly wrinkled into a bun face, and then said dissatisfied: "This, what kind of medicine is this, so bitter!" ”

"Bitter medicine, come, this medicine works well." Xue Liyue blew a spoonful again and sent it to Xi Ran, her eyes were strong, as if Xi Ran was disobedient, and he would be able to force her into it in the next second.

Shizoan swallowed his saliva, pouted and drank the bitter decoction one by one with great reluctance.

"Oh, let's eat." After Xue Liyue put away the bowl and spoon, she took out some desserts as if she was doing a trick, and motioned that Xiran could eat them to relieve the bitterness in her mouth.

"I've found out you're pretty good at taking care of people, Big Ice." Xiran's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stuffed a piece of dessert, praising Xue Liyue while eating, as if he had forgotten everything about the quarrel just yesterday.

"Then you can take care of yourself, I still have to leave beforehand." Saying that, Xue Liyue was about to raise her feet and leave.

"No, wait a minute, I'll probably know how I can find out where those craftsmen are." Seeing this, Shizome hurriedly opened his mouth to stop it.

"What?"

Away from the Child's house

"How long will it take for them to finish?" Li Gongzi asked the man next to him who was dressed in black and wearing a black hat.

"It's going to take a while."

"No, there's no time, he's already suspicious of me, I have to transfer them quickly, if it's too late, it's time to give up." Li Gongzi frowned and whispered, his face was very serious, and his calculating eyes looked particularly terrifying.

"Yes."

Langui Auction House

"You're coming to the auction house?" Xue Liyue didn't quite understand Xi Ran's thoughts, why did she come to the auction house to find someone?

"Yes, I guess that wooden box is our only breakthrough at the moment, come here to find out who took the wooden box in the end, maybe there will be new discoveries." Xi Ran thought of what Ji Tao said before leaving, and it felt that it was not unreasonable, so let's try it.

"You mean the wooden box with that totem?"

Xue Liyue knew in an instant, maybe this is the only clue, last time he tried to find out nothing new from Gongzi for a long time, and Xue Rongqing seems to be honest recently, he didn't see any movement, seeing that his coming-of-age ceremony is coming soon, they have to hurry up and find those people before the ceremony.

"Yes, let's go in and take a look, aren't you a high-level VIP, you should be able to find out who took that thing, right?" Xiran squinted and smiled, and pulled Xue Liyue towards the auction hall.

After the two of them entered, they went straight to the service desk, "Hello, we want to check the item that was auctioned in the finale a few days ago, that is, the wooden box that you call the relic of the ancient blood clan, can you help us find out who took the item?" ”

Xue Liyue politely said to the people at the service desk, and after speaking, she took out her senior VIP ID card, which made the service staff who was about to refuse immediately take it with polite hands, looked at it carefully, and respectfully handed it back again, and said, "Okay, please wait a moment, I'll check it for you." ”

"Sure enough, the people here are all well-trained." Shizome couldn't help but sigh when he looked at such a serious and orderly behavior.

"Of course, it's not easy to stay in a place like this."

Xue Liyue didn't look at the tide of dyeing, but kept looking around, watching all kinds of people walking back and forth around her, most of them were rich and powerful people, working in this kind of place, if you accidentally offend anyone, it can really bring about a catastrophe.

"I found out, the wooden box was auctioned by someone, but I didn't come to pick it up, and it is still stored in the auction house."

"Didn't take it? Do you know who took the picture? This result shocked both Xi Ran and Xue Liyue, who else could take a picture and not take it away?

"I'm sorry, but we need to protect the privacy of our customers, so we can't disclose it to you." The staff at the service desk apologized politely, obviously this was the rule of the auction house, and they still didn't dare to cross it without permission.

"So, can you take us to see the wooden box?" Shizome didn't embarrass her anymore, and then thought about it and asked.

"This..."

"No, got it? Okay, take us to see it. Seeing that the other party was still hesitating, Xue Liyue directly took out the prince's waist card to show the other party, which startled the staff at the service desk, no one expected that it was the fifth prince of the Xingnuo Empire coming, so he immediately nodded his head in response, bowed, made a gesture of please, and took the two of them to the room where the auction items were stored.

"Sure enough, it's still easy to use the identity of the prince." Shizome looked at the changes before and after, and couldn't help but sigh again, and there was a slight irony in his words.

"It's not always so good." Xue Liyue listened to Xi Ran's emotion, put her hands behind her back, and left such a faint sentence from Xi Ran's side, and followed the service staff.

"Huh?" Shizome was stunned for a few seconds when he heard this, and he couldn't react a little, and he didn't know why he suddenly said that.

"Of course, sometimes it's not easy to use, such as protecting you, and when I'm looking for you, it doesn't seem to be so easy to use."

Xue Liyue looked at the stunned Xiran with her spare eyes, smiled bitterly, and sighed in her heart, remembering how many times before, he himself didn't protect her well, and always let her get hurt and encounter danger. In fact, if you can keep you safe for the rest of your life, then this prince's identity, don't do it.

The two followed the service staff to an inconspicuous small door, and after following in, they found that there was a hole in it, an empty room, on the left was a row of high shelves, on which were all kinds of auction items, and on the right was empty I didn't know what to do.

"This is the wooden box that day." When Xiran and Xue Liyue looked at the entire room, the service staff quickly found the delicate wooden box and handed it over.

"Okay, thank you." Xue Liyue politely took it and observed it again and again, this time he was observing the wooden box up close, in fact, except for the familiar totem above, there was nothing special, and he tried to open the small lock but found that it was very strong.

"Can this lock be opened?" Shizome wasn't at the auction site at the time, so this was the first time she had seen this wooden box, and it did give people a peculiar feeling, but she didn't see anything special, so she wondered if it was something special inside?

"Sorry, we don't know how to open this box."

"Hey, didn't you open it when you received it?"

Shizome was surprised that he couldn't open it, that is, he didn't know what was inside, so why could it still be auctioned as a lot? And it was the finale auction, but she didn't see anything valuable about this wooden box, but the totem was more eye-catching.

"No, because the owner of this lot is our resident high-ranking guest here, and they have the right to keep it confidential."
