Chapter 1663 Beautiful Stone

"Can I look around?"

Xiao Xiao asked politely.

He was somewhat curious about what was keeping the monster out.

"what?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."

"Look at it as you wish."

A boy's room is not a girl's boudoir.

What's more, the other party is also a boy, so there is nothing to be shy about.

He thought his house was pretty clean.

Not afraid of meeting people.

"that."

The young man followed Xiao Xiao and said, "My house is special."

"is that true?"

“Why is my house special?”

"I also want to know."

Xiao Xiao didn't walk fast, but he had a panoramic view of the surrounding arrangements.

"what?"

The young man was somewhat surprised and disappointed.

It turns out Xiao Xiao didn’t know either.

"I'm looking for it."

Xiao Xiao let go of his perception.

Able to detect the breath of monsters, form a barrier similar to a barrier, and prevent monsters from entering
There must be some treasure in the young man's home.
I just don’t know what treasure it is.

"Find?"

After a moment of confusion, the young man understood.

It seems that something in his house has such magical effect.

It can actually keep the monsters out of the door.
Could it be something like a jade pendant?

Isn't that how it's written in novels?
The young man thought hard.

Do you have a jade pendant at home?

No?
He rubbed his frowning brows.

He is not a girl who likes beautiful accessories.

Why would he buy jade for no reason?
His home is a typical bachelor apartment for men.

There is nothing miscellaneous except the necessities of life.

Fortunately, the house is small, so it doesn’t look empty.

If it’s not a jade pendant… then what is it?
The young man opened his eyes wide and carefully scanned every furnishing in the room.

Although he had lived in this house for almost a year, he suddenly felt it was a little strange.

……

"Where is your stone?"

Xiao Xiao stopped and turned around.

The young man was not paying attention and almost bumped into it.

He took a step back. "Stone?"

"Ohhh, Stone."

The young man reacted.

He was so focused on finding the "magic weapon" at home that could ward off monsters that he almost forgot the purpose of his return.

It seems that the "magic weapon" cannot be found for the time being, so it is better to solve the problem at hand first.

"In my bedroom."

As the young man spoke, he turned and walked towards a room at the side.

Xiao Xiao followed behind the young man.

……

The young man pushed open the half-open door of the bedroom.

"I put the stone on the bedside table."

Before the young man spoke, Xiao Xiao had already seen the stone on the bedside table.

Placed in a half-opened upright box.

The young man explained, "At night, when the bedside lamp shines on the stone, the flowers inside look like..."

The young man frowned and thought for a moment, "It's like being alive."

Somewhat unsure whether his description was accurate or not, the young man did not bother with the wording and said directly, "Let me show you."

He walked to the window and drew the curtains.

The bright room suddenly fell into darkness.

The young man returned to the bedside and turned on the bedside lamp.

The hazy yellow light enveloped the stone, and the translucent stone emitted a golden-red glow and created soft ripples like flowing water.

The small flowers inside stretched out their petals as the light flowed, as if they were waving in the wind.

"Beautiful, right?"

The young man looked somewhat dreamy.

He also discovered this scenery by chance once.

The young man, who had originally planned to put the stone away, immediately decided to put it on the bedside table.

I read it before going to bed every day, and I always feel that my sleep quality has improved.

……

"Ah~"

The young man sighed.

Xiao Xiao raised the corner of his mouth knowingly, "Can't bear to part with it?" Being hit on the heart's matter, the young man smiled embarrassedly.

"Kind of."

"Look, such a beautiful stone..."

"Sure enough, such a beautiful stone has an owner."

The young man murmured.

Still an incredible host.

He had no way of trying to see if he could buy the stone from the other party with money.

……

"Ah~"

The young man sighed again.

He thought he was so lucky to have picked up such a beautiful stone for free.

Sure enough, what is not yours is not yours.

And I have suffered for so many days.

There was only... "Ah!"

The young man cried out.

Facing Xiao Xiao's inquiring gaze, the young man smiled awkwardly, "I just suddenly remembered..."

"No wonder I never heard any noise at home."

"This is also the reason why I have not seen a psychiatrist."

"If I could hear voices from morning till night, I would definitely go to see a psychiatrist even if I didn't want to."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't even be able to rest properly, right?"

The young man was a little scared.

"That would be really tragic."

Thinking of this, the young man’s reluctance to part with the stone was alleviated a lot.

Although stone is beautiful, it is just a stone.

He also has no ability to take it for himself.

The young man picked up the box of stones.

Looking closely, the young man could even vaguely make out the lines on the petals.

It is indeed a favorite of monsters.

The young man sighed, and then he closed the lid.

This saves you from looking at it and then becoming reluctant to let it go.

……

"Xiao-"

The young man looked up and did not see Xiao Xiao.

He was stunned.

Turning my gaze, I saw Xiao Xiao at the end of the bed.

……

Xiao Xiao raised his eyes and looked at a painting hanging on the wall.

It is a horizontal scroll ink painting.

The painting depicts the common scene of mountains and flowing water.

The mountains are towering and the water is rushing.

The mountains and water are shrouded in mist, giving it a sense of otherworldliness.

The rocks are jagged and water is splashing.

People who view the painting feel as if water vapor is blowing on their faces, and a cool feeling mixed with the scent of mountain grass and trees envelops their whole body.

……

“This was painted by my grandfather.”

The young man walked up to Xiao Xiao.

He also looked up at the painting.

“Your grandfather draws very well.”

Xiao Xiao smiled.

this painting……

His eyes slowly scanned every inch of the screen.

……

"right?"

The young man laughed and said, "Everyone who has seen my grandfather's paintings says they are good."

"This painting was a gift from my grandfather when I found a job and moved out to live on my own. He asked me to hang it in my house so that it wouldn't look too shabby."

"You know what, even though it's just a painting, the room does look much more classy."

The young man looked around his bedroom.

The only decoration is this painting.

The stone must be returned to its original owner.

Maybe later he could go to the store to see if there was a similar stone, buy one, and put it on the bedside table.

Of course, the premise is that the price is within his affordability.

He had never bought a stone before, and he didn't know whether it was expensive or not...

"Student Xiao."

The young man finally came up with a barely passable name.

"Let's go return the stone to the monster first."

He was a little worried that the monster might be in a bad mood if he waited at the door for too long.
