Chapter 8 The Study

Seeing that the maid kept her head down and didn't dare to look at him, Ye Yu exhaled lightly, looked at the servant with a relaxed expression, and said, "You don't have to make a fuss, you will feel that the room is too stuffy after taking a nap, so you will come out for a walk, and you will come here before you know it." โ€

"It's because the slaves and maids are not thoughtful, it's hot outside, and I ask Young Master Ye to sit in the study first, and the slaves and maids will go to inform the other servants to prepare something to cool down Young Master Ye's room in a while. The maid said respectfully.

"Okay, but don't notify anyone else here, a place like the study, the quieter the better, I'll just go in and take a look." Ye Yu hurriedly said.

"Yes!" the maid answered, turned around and walked to Ye Yu's right hand, and led Ye Yu towards the study.

"What is the oldest of the eight servants?" asked Ye Yu as he walked.

"Slaves and maids are fifth. The maid said.

"Then I'll call you Fifth Sister Hu, don't be a slave or something, I can't get used to it, I'm not a young master, just call me Ye Yu in the future." Ye Yu said neatly.

"But that's ยทยทยทยทยทยท" There was a tremor in the maid's voice.

"It's nothing, this matter is settled, and you will convey these words to the other servants in a while, I don't want there to be a distinction between us, I want to treat you as my friends, I hope you are the same, it just takes a little time to run in. Ye Yu said.

"Yes! Hu Wu knows. The maid whispered.

Listening to Fifth Sister Hu's agreement, although she agreed somewhat reluctantly at her own request, Ye Yu was still a lot happier.

Walking to the door of the study, Ye Yu's attention fell on the carving on the door, the carved pattern was abstract and messy, and he took a closer look, and among the intertwined vines and running beast patterns was the logo of the cover of an old book.

In the dark, Ye Yu felt that the cover of this old book seemed to have been seen somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.

Ye Yu looked away, and seeing that there was no sound behind Fifth Sister Hu, he hurriedly said, "Let's go in." โ€

The study is an architectural style of two floors, the first floor is a typical library pavilion, the circular bookshelf is like the annual rings of the tree, and the bookshelves are directly set up from the ground to the ceiling, there is a sliding ladder on one side, the four walls are covered by rows of books, several chairs and small tables are placed on the wall, the middle of the bookshelf is a round table, surrounded by circular benches, and there is a strong sandalwood fragrance in the study.

For Ye Yu, the study of the Khazar family was already spectacular, but compared to here, it was simply a thatched shed.

The heart was shocked, but it didn't stop him from continuing to look around,

"How can there be so many books in here?" Ye Yu asked.

"I don't know about this, Fourth Aunt He didn't tell us about the whole yard. Hu Wujie said.

"Oh, Fifth Sister Hu, you go and deal with the affairs of my room, I'll just stay here alone. โ€

"Yes!"

Sister Hu didn't dare to slack off, turned around and walked towards the door with light steps, and the door closed immediately.

Faced with so many books in front of him, Ye Yu walked down in a circle around the bookshelf on the first floor, and it took about a quarter of an hour to just roughly sweep through it, most of the books just read the titles of the books and knew that the content was about the history of the development of Jieyu Town for hundreds of years, some of them were brochures that recorded the meeting, and some of the books were about some of the beasts.

After a circle, Ye Yu didn't want to read too much, and went up the stairs to the second floor from the right side of the door.

The design of the second floor is completely different from the first floor, there is a circle of glass dome balconies, the whole room is shrouded in dazzling sunlight, in the middle of the room, just below the glittering glass dome, there is a large case of pear marble, the case is paved with various celebrity texts, and dozens of treasure inkstones, the pen inserted in the sea of pens is like a forest, there is a big Ru kiln flower bag on that side, and there is a white chrysanthemum full of crystal balls.

There are four huge landscape drawings hanging on the four walls, look at the past in turn, the creation time of these four pictures is three hundred years ago, there is a pair of even five hundred years ago, but they are all preserved very well, a corner of the red sandalwood frame is placed on a large plate of a large official kiln, the plate contains dozens of pieces of jade, another corner of the wall lacquer frame hangs a white jade flounder, next to the hanging of a small hammer.

There was a recessed place on each wall, and to Ye Yu's surprise, there was a book in the other three recessed places, but there was only one wall that was empty, whether it was originally there or the book on it was taken away, Ye Yu didn't know.

The feeling of the second floor for Ye Yu is that the overall width is dense and the details are dense, full of a chic and elegant bookish atmosphere.

The weirdest place is also the most attractive place, Ye Yu's gaze can't take away from the hollow place, and slowly walks over.

"Luo Meng's Twelve Giant Beasts Atlas??" Ye Yu got goosebumps when he looked at the eight words on the cover, but quickly calmed down and looked at it.

The text on the first page mentions that there are twelve kinds of beast races with strong dominance on the Luo Gang Continent, and the Tongling Kingdom was the first to discover and list these twelve beasts as twelve giant beasts, referred to as pythons, flies, fish lizards, bears, lions, bats, tigers, eagles, monkeys, foxes, and demons.

"It's really powerful, and it doesn't seem to be inferior to the Nine Ghost Elephants. Ye Yu quickly flipped from the beginning to the end and muttered.

Since he hadn't seen it, judging from the records in the book alone, Ye Yu had no way to accurately feel the power of the twelve giant beasts, and the only beast clan that could come to mind that was close to the description of the text was the Nine Ghost Elephants of Krea City.

I thought that I could find a beast clan that looked like a little oolong in the twelve giant beasts, but a line of words on the second page completely dispelled this idea, the twelve giant beasts were an existence that could not be controlled by psychics.

In the process of flipping through the entire book, Ye Yu relied on his innate sensitivity to the beast race, and intentionally or unintentionally remembered the appearance attributes of the twelve giant beasts and the haunting place, and there was no need for him to take this book away.

Put it back in its original place, walked to the opposite side, and just reached out to touch the book, Ye Yu was pushed a few meters away by the sudden force of the shock, and almost fell to the ground.

After standing still, he looked at the past in surprise, the sunken space seemed to have been set up some kind of impenetrable barrier, and a mysterious and sophistic pattern loomed, and finally disappeared without a trace.

Ye Yu didn't know how to crack this strange technique at all, and after reading it a few times, he had an idea, ran to the big case, took out paper and pen, and drew the pattern.

Suddenly, there was the sound of the door being pushed open downstairs, and a rush of footsteps was heard.

"Ye Yu, where are you?" said Wu Sister Hu softly.

"Fifth Sister Hu, I'm on the second floor. Ye Yu replied.

"When it's time for dinner, please come with me to the main hall. โ€

"Okay, I'll come down right away. Ye Yu hurriedly folded the paper and stuffed it into the pocket of his robe and walked downstairs.

Hu Wujie held an oil lamp in her hand, stood downstairs and watched Ye Yu come down the stairs and move outside the door.

As soon as Ye Yu stepped out of the study, the dim light made him a little unable to see where the only exit was, and then he realized that he had been on the second floor for a long time, and night had fallen.

"How long have I been here?"

"Two hours. โ€

"Oh. โ€

"Ye Yu, let's go. โ€

Fifth Sister Hu waited for Ye Yu to come to her, turned around and walked in front with an oil lamp to lead the way, the place that the oil lamp could illuminate was only one meter of ground around her, and Ye Yu followed closely behind Fifth Sister Hu.

With Fifth Sister Hu leading the way in front, Ye Yu saved a street sign and a street sign to find the trouble in the direction of the main hall, followed behind and turned left and right, looking up at the moon from time to time.

"Slow down when passing through here. Hu Wujie pointed to the front and said.

Through the flickering lights, Ye Yu saw that where Hu Wujie was pointing, there were cobblestones piled up on the edge of the stone road, and beyond was a huge lake, on which a small part of the vast night sky was reflected.

"The main hall is right in front. Hu Wujie pointed to the place where there was some light on the shore of the lake, which was a white building on high ground.

"It's really not easy to eat, not only to walk for so long, but also to go to such a high place, what do you say the previous owner of this yard thought, isn't it too tired?" Ye Yu complained a few words.

"It's quite tiring to go back and forth, but after a rich and powerful person like this has reached a certain height, fame and fortune are no longer so important to them, but it is the state of mind that has become what they are pursuing. Hu Wujie said with some self-deprecation.

Ye Yu was silent for a moment after hearing this, and said, "Then Fifth Sister Hu, you should treat this place as your home." โ€

"It's already a blessing for us to be here, how dare we think like that. The light flickered slightly.

"What is there to dare to do, look at me, the house is not mine, and I don't have the ability to build such a big house, but I just feel that this is my home, how comfortable and how to come, not to mention that you are taking care of all the big and small things in this house, I am far away, without you, I don't know what this house will be abandoned, you are more important to this house, so I can treat this place as my home, why can't you?" Ye Yu said with a serious face.

"Since you said so, if I don't agree, I won't be able to get along with myself. Fifth Sister Hu said lightly.

"That's right. โ€

While talking, Ye Yu and Hu Wujie went down the steps and walked along the shore of the lake to the main entrance of the white building.

It was dark, and I couldn't see the outside of the main hall clearly, I only knew that it was circular, and the two servants standing at the door saw Ye Yu appear, pushed open the door and retreated to stand behind the door, and the light in the hall shone on the steps that Ye Yu was about to walk.
