The mountain lion cast a trace of disdain! It's just a rock!

The stone shook more and more violently, and the sneering sound was not loud, but it was rapid and violent, and it seemed to feel the breath of danger!

Now, the mountain lion was attracted.

It turned to the stone and gently touched the shaking stone with its paws...... The stone looks like an egg!

Egg?

Such a big egg is a delicious meal!

The mountain lion sniffed excitedly with its pointed nose, trying to tell what kind of egg it was by its breath. Its sense of smell is extremely sensitive!

Suddenly!

The mountain lion smelled a strange aura, and immediately, endless fear began to spread from the beast's pupils......

"Whew!"

As if greatly frightened, the mountain lion screamed a few times and fled frantically!

In an instant, the mountain lion that had crossed the wall completely disappeared into the darkness......

The mountain lion leaves, and the egg is quiet again.

Lying on the ground, quiet, motionless, looking in the dark, it looked like an ordinary stone......

No one saw what happened in the middle of the night. It's just that the people in the neighborhood are very curious, and they don't know when the mountain lions in the vicinity became extinct. Some people say that the mountain lions have migrated into the mountains en masse, and some people say that it is a mysterious master who has exterminated all the harmful mountain lions in this vicinity...... In short, for a long, long time after that, no one saw the mountain lion in the vicinity, not a single one!

However, a pair of eyes in the crack of the door took this scene into their eyes.

This person is Xuan Zhongwu!

Xuanyue's rare peace these days was finally broken, and she was slightly surprised when her father appeared at her door. For the first time in these days, she saw her father at home during the day. What day is it? From her father's solemn expression, she guessed that something important must have happened.

"Month, half an hour later in my study." Xuan Zhongwu said.

"If there's anything you want to tell me, just say it here." Xuanyue said.

"Oh?"

Xuan Zhongwu was slightly stunned. How is this daughter so flexible? It has been more than half a month since Xuan Yue went home, and Xuan Zhongwu and Xuan Yue have no more than ten words. Coupled with Xuan Yue's deliberate concealment and isolation of herself, it is obvious that Xuan Zhongwu did not notice that his daughter had changed in essence from before.

"Okay." Xuan Zhongwu came to the door and said, "I want to talk to you about the egg." ”

"Eggs?" Xuanyue thought to herself: "Could it be that there are eggs to eat today?" ”

She hadn't eaten eggs since the first day she came home. The life of the Xuan family is really not ordinary poverty.

"Your pet egg!" Xuan Zhongwu said straight to the point.

"What egg?" Xuanyue had almost forgotten about her demon pet egg for a long time.

"Devil's Eggs. The egg you put in the yard for Xiaobao to practice! ”

"That's a rock!"

"Are you sure it's really a rock?" A hint of doubt flashed in Xuan Zhongwu's eyes.

"What's the difference between a pet egg that can't hatch and a stone?" Xuanyue said.

"Can't it really hatch? Could it be that you are not vindictive enough? Hatching a pet egg needs to be moistened with bucket temperature! "As the second young master of the Xuan family, Xuan Zhongwu naturally knows the hatching procedure of the Demon Pet Egg!

"An intermediate appraiser says so, it shouldn't be wrong!" Xuanyue looked calm.

"What? You mean...... Intermediate appraiser? Xuan Zhongwu couldn't believe his ears and asked rhetorically.

"yes!" Xuanyue's dark eyes did not have a trace of waves.

"Did you find an intermediate appraiser to identify the Demon Pet Egg?" Xuan Zhongwu couldn't help but confirm again.

"Hmm."

"How did you find that? An intermediate appraiser is not just going to give people to identify the devil pet eggs at will! Even if you are a low-level appraiser, you need to charge an expensive fee to identify a magic pet egg! Xuan Zhongwu's extremely surprised words showed that he respected the intermediate appraiser very much. Only then did Xuanyue know that it was no wonder that the intermediate appraiser in the restaurant always looked like he was awesome and coaxing!

"It's a bit complicated. However, the result was a dead egg. ”

"The intermediate appraiser's conclusion will certainly not be wrong." Xuan Zhongwu's face was full of disappointment, and then he thought of the scene he saw last night, and his eyes bloomed with some brilliance, "But there are exceptions to everything!" Since this magic pet egg is yours, it can be regarded as a fate with you. You don't have to work hard, think about how to hatch it. ”

"If you have a powerful Warcraft war pet, Dad doesn't have to worry about you."

When it was over, Xuan Zhongwu added a sentence of his heart. This was the conclusion he thought of after tossing and turning all night after seeing the egg scare away the mountain lion last night! An egg can scare the ferocious mountain lion into fleeing, and the magic pet that will hatch in the future must be a very powerful war pet. At least it's much more powerful than the mountain lion. Even if there is a mountain lion as Xuanyue's war pet, ordinary people don't dare to bully her!

"Aren't you going to the General's Mansion today?" Xuanyue pulled away from the topic. She has never been used to facing the Xuan family's feelings for her.

"Hmm."

At the mention of the General's Mansion, Xuan Zhongwu's face was slightly wrinkled, and he looked worried.

"Is something wrong?" His expression naturally couldn't escape the eyes of Xuan Yue, who was observant!

"I didn't ...... What the. ”

"Dad, tell me about it. Maybe I can help you! ”

"You can't help me. If you have this heart, your father will be very happy. You went to the academy for two years and suffered a lot, but you also grew up and became sensible. Dad was very pleased. But you don't have to worry about adult affairs. After talking deeply, Xuan Zhongwu realized that his daughter had undergone earth-shaking changes from two years ago.

"Is it a work thing...... Having a hard time? Xuanyue asked guessingly.

"How do you know?" Xuan Zhongwu asked in surprise.

"Dad has always been very nervous about work, and he goes out early and returns late every day. Today, I stayed at home and didn't go to the General's Mansion, obviously because I had a problem at work. ”

"You're so smart. It seems that Daddy's daughter has really grown up, you have this intelligence and meticulousness, and you are not afraid that you will be bullied in the future. Xuan Zhongwu's brows furrowed, nothing made him happier than a child's appearance.

"Since my father says I'm smart, let me help you." Xuanyue called "Dad", feeling very awkward. The middle-aged man in front of him, who was deep and family-oriented, lived under the same roof as her, but he was no different from a stranger. But this man was deeply concerned about her, without any flowery language, without much communication, and even very little politeness to ask for warmth. But from the heart, he cared and nervous about her.

"It's the General's Mansion that has a problem with its accounts."

Xuan Zhongwu finally told the truth. It turned out that he had been in charge of the accounts of the General's Mansion all these years, and all financial revenues and expenditures had to pass through his hands.

Originally, the Xuan family had huge industries in various places and made considerable profits. The expenses allocated to the General's Palace were also very large. Xuan Zhongwu has a humble position in the General's Mansion, and although he is in charge of all financial expenses, he is actually just a puppet. Those gentlemen and disciples of the General's Mansion spent extravagantly, and when the money was spent, they directly went to the account office to advance and borrow. When the money is lent out, it becomes a difficult thing to return. The general's mansion has a big business, and no one cares about it in the first few years. But over time, over the years, these advances and loans have become a huge dead account.

In recent years, the general's business in various places has declined, and profits have declined. As a result, the general's government was able to allocate less spending. As a result, the General's Mansion had serious financial problems. Xuan Zhongwu has been hiding it for a long time, but recently it was known by the old man. The old man criticized him fiercely, and was even more disappointed in this scumbag son.
