I am aging gracefully in the world of famous books

Pei Xiang felt that Dagger was a bit duplicity at first.He obviously suddenly realized that it was not easy for her to cultivate with sword intent, and he was willing to reveal this secret news because of his love and pity for talents.

Otherwise, he already knew about his queen's plan, so why didn't he tell the real power of the magical picture book?

——Sure enough, for some strong people, the only behavior that goes all out to pursue power is the easiest way to impress them.

Pei Xiang also thought that the reason why Mr. Dagger was able to wake up was because he felt the sword intent in her soul - a power completely different from magic.

Because of curiosity, he was attracted, and because of novelty, he was touched. After that, he began to have more in-depth communication with her.

——Well, although Dagger is often ordinary and unaware, cold and arrogant, he is the only existence in my dumb life that can chat freely.

Thinking of this, Pei Xiang couldn't help but look at Cui Cui stretching out its branches and leaves in the flowerpot, thinking, if the existence that can communicate with his soul is an elf, it must be super sweet and heartwarming.

"Amy, you'd better stay away from this magical plant these days, so as not to accidentally confuse the things you most want to know."

"Ok?"

"Let's just think that when you open that picture book for the first time, you probably don't want to see the contents inside to tell you that this Cui Cui is not conscious, and it will never be able to form a real life. Then , you have wasted a precious opportunity."

Pei Xiang smiled: "Thank you, Mr. Dagger, for being considerate for me. I always know what I want most, and I won't make such an oolong. As for Cui Cui... no matter what the future outcome is, I will be with him Yes. If he comes to life, I am naturally happy. If he remains a plant, I will take care of him patiently until he completes his life cycle."

The dagger gave a soft "hmm", and he felt that he had fulfilled his duty of reminder, so he didn't say anything more.

The next day, Pei Xiang directly asked Lilia about the whereabouts of the magical picture book.

In the past few days, Lilia has been busy adapting to the new life in the palace, busy getting together with her father and brothers to reminisce about the old days, and she hasn't had time to pay attention to a toy from her childhood.At this time, he suddenly heard Pei Xiang's inquiry, and couldn't remember the whereabouts of the book for a while, so he quickly sent his attendants to inquire.

After more than an hour, the attendant came back. He not only brought back the answer, but also brought the magical picture book and some rewards from the king.

"What happened?" Lilia asked curiously.

The attendant quickly reported that the magical picture book that originally belonged to Princess Lilia was taken away by Moenna before, and after Moenna was captured, her things were taken back to the king's private treasury, and the book The storybook that can move and talk is also among them.

"When the subordinates went to inquire, His Majesty heard that His Royal Highness Lilia was looking for a childhood story book, so he ordered someone to get it out. After reading it, all the little people in the pictures on the pages came out of it, and they were still able to talk and chat. , It was very interesting. His Majesty recalled the past warm days, and he was in a good mood. He not only sent this storybook back to Her Royal Highness, but also personally selected precious and beautiful jewelry for the princess."

Hearing this, Lilia got up to appreciate the king's gift, while Pei Xiang raised her eyebrows slightly, and poked the dagger's consciousness lightly in her heart:

"Storybook? Could it be that Moenna is still a child at heart, so the book is still the original content after it is in her hands?"

The dagger thought for a while, and speculated:

"Perhaps the title of 'owner' has special conditions, and it doesn't mean that whoever gets it belongs to him. Back then...His Majesty Asfar was not very interested in the alchemy works of human wizards, so he didn't ask about it in detail. Details. The news I told you before came from the general introduction of the human wizard when he showed his works."

At this time, Pei Xiang no longer asked about the identity of the dagger thousands of years ago. She naturally skipped some obvious clues and only cared about practical issues.

"After Moenna got the magical picture book, what she saw was the story Lilia liked. After the king took back the former queen's items, what she saw was still the content that the little daughter liked the most. That is to say, for that book , it does not judge the owner based on power, status, or even the length of time it has been occupied."

"Probably...'gifting' is the correct way." Dagger said softly.

Pei Xiang nodded slightly, she guessed the same way.

At this time, Lilia walked up to Pei Xiang with the heavy picture book in her hand, and said in a brisk tone:

"Amy, come check out this amazing book, it's Helena and Alice on page five. Oops, I miss my little brother reading to me."

Pei Xiang took the book from Lilia, and after opening it, she found that the contents inside were indeed vivid and interesting stories, and there was no change because of the different book holders.

"Lilia," Pei Xiang gestured, "How did you get this book? Was it given to you by His Majesty the King?"

Lilia shook her head, and said with nostalgia:

"This is a thank you gift from the fairy Morgana to my mother. Later, my mother gave this book to me. She told me that as long as I remember the contents of the book and maintain a kind and pure nature , treat those who have helped me and those in need with sincerity and generosity, and I will live happily ever after in the future."

Pei Xiang was taken aback for a moment, and some guesses gradually became clear in the haze.

She couldn't help thinking further, what would the queen see in the book after she got it?

"As a mother, she should be very concerned about the future of the children..." Pei Xiang thought, "If...the queen reads in the book how to help the children save the future, she will probably make arrangements in advance. Then , is it an important step to resolve future disasters by giving the magic book to the young daughter?"

Pei Xiang continued to think about everything after she and Lilia met, and also thought about the original storyline. It is not difficult to find that the key to saving the eleven princes has always been Lilia.

If she hadn't met Pei Xiang, Lilia would have suffered all kinds of hardships to help her brother under the guidance of the fairy Morgana, and in the end she would have suffered all the hardships to get happiness.

But now Lilia met Pei Xiang, and through a story, the relationship between the two was brought closer and a friendship was established.Therefore, Lilia didn't suffer any hardships in saving the wild swan prince, but because of this, she also had more troubles in marrying the old widower.

"This is amazing..." Pei Xiang murmured in his heart.

At the same time, the sincere little princess didn't notice her good friend's distraction. She continued:

"That bad witch slandered the fairy Morgana for not helping her mother, which is actually wrong. I heard from my elder brother that Morgana actually told her mother how to prolong her life, but for some reason, my mother didn't do it and never mentioned it. Instead, she gave me Morgana's amazing gift.

"Amy, I have always believed that the queen mother must hope that I will be honest, brave, gentle, kind, and tenacious like some great women in the story. As long as I do it, the people I love and I will be able to obtain happiness. "

Pei Xiang temporarily suppressed the speculation and analysis in his heart, and nodded solemnly towards Lilia.

She told the little princess earnestly with hand gestures that she has grown up very well according to the queen's expectations, and the queen in the kingdom of heaven will definitely feel gratified and proud of her daughter.

With Pei Xiang's affirmation, Lilia was extremely happy.After spinning around the room a few times like a happy bird, she suddenly made a decision that caught Pei Xiang off guard:

"Amy, it's the stories in this book that made you and me good friends. You agreed to help me find out the whereabouts of my brothers in gratitude for the stories I told, and what a smart and loyal friend you are, not only Keeping her promise, she bravely rescued my brothers, and even took the risk of exposing Moenna's true face.

"My friend, I've always wanted to thank you, but I didn't know where to start. Now, I've thought of a good way, Amy, and I'm going to give you this amazing picture book. I hope to give my mother Blessings to share with you."

As the little princess's crisp voice fell, the picture book in Pei Xiang's hand immediately trembled slightly and unnoticed.

Immediately afterwards, the colorful childlike pictures on the pages of the book gradually faded and disappeared, replaced by rows of densely packed text, floating strange symbols, and some extremely fine and vivid small illustrations.Of course, those symbols and illustrations can also be animated.

In a moment of silence, a picture book full of interesting stories becomes a thick book for learning magic knowledge.

Lilia who was not far away didn't notice such a hidden and magical scene, but how could Pei Xiang ignore the sudden change in the book in his hand.She glanced at the attendants in the room for the first time, and after making sure that no one noticed anything unusual, she immediately closed the page calmly.

"Lilia, thank you for your precious gift, I am very happy," Pei Xiang put the book on his lap, took out the notebook and wrote, "Let's go for a walk in the garden, I want to have some private words with you."

Lilia noticed that her good friend cherished her gift, and couldn't help but feel that she had made a great decision.She nodded happily, took Pei Xiang's arm and left the room.

In the beautiful tree-lined courtyard, Pei Xiang signaled Lilia to open the magic book.

"What's the matter, dear Amy," Lilia opened the book cover while talking, "this book...Huh?"

Looking at the completely different text on the page in surprise, Lilia's eyes flashed with doubt.If she hadn't been sure that the book in Pei Xiang's hand hadn't been changed, she would have thought she was reading another book at this time.

Pei Xiang rubbed the little princess's hair, pulled her to sit on the bench under the shade of the tree, and then began to explain the uniqueness and preciousness of this magic book in the notebook.

The tip of the pen rustled, and Lilia's expression changed from bewildered to suddenly enlightened. After a while, she hurriedly put the magic book back into Pei Xiang's arms.

"Amy, since the content on this is what you want to know the most, take it and have a look."

Pei Xiang wrote: "Lilia, I won't hide it from you, I really need to use this magic book, but I won't keep it for myself forever. After I write down all the contents in the book, I will write it down. Back to you."

Lilia quickly waved her hand: "This is a gift from me, Amy. You helped me find my brothers, that is more precious than anything else, and I will not regret it."

Pei Xiang shook his head, and continued to write to persuade:

"After I have mastered the knowledge in this book, it won't be very useful to keep this book by my side. Lilia, I guessed before that probably only if I give it with sincerity, can this book successfully change its owner. So, when I finish reading this book, I will give it back to you or your relatives and friends, so that more people will benefit from this magic book, which is great."

As soon as Lilia heard that more people would get help, she no longer insisted on her original idea, and readily accepted Pei Xiang's promise that she would return the magic book in the future.

She happily thought about what a precious gift her mother who died young gave her. It not only filled her childhood with fantasy and wonderful colors, but also helped others continuously. This is simply a wonderful thing something happened.

Pei Xiang looked at Lilia's pure and gentle smile, and hurriedly told her a few more words.

She told the little princess that it is best not to tell others about the strangeness of this book in detail, lest some villains with evil intentions take the opportunity to defraud the magic book.At that time, the villains will not only rely on the contents of the book to commit crimes and harm people, but will also keep occupying the treasures to prevent more people from sharing the magic of this book.

Lilia nodded obediently, and secretly drew a warning line in her heart.She is innocent and soft but not stupid, so it is clear that the worry and caution of a good friend are not superfluous, and at the same time, she does not want the gift of the queen mother to become the weapon of the villain.

After agreeing on the ownership of the magic book, Pei Xiang flipped through the contents with anticipation.

Judging from the table of contents, this book is divided into six parts in total, which are Discrimination of the Origin of Magic, Potion Science, Charm Science, Mageweave and Alchemy, Contract and Summoning, and Magic Natural History.

"The content here is written according to my specific situation," Pei Xiang hurriedly browsed the subheadings in each chapter, especially the part on the analysis of the origin of magic, "the weird symbols in the middle of the text are accompanied by pronunciation. There are examples at the end of the paragraph, and the examples are all related to the mermaids."

"Look at the potion section, maybe there is a way or hint to undo the sea witch's curse." Dagger reminded Pei Xiang.

But Pei Xiang didn't rush to read back, but closed the book instead.

"Don't worry, I will study quietly after I go back, and now I will deal with the issue of Lilia's marriage."

"Once you have this magic book, there is no need to go to Burleigh to be the queen." Dagger frowned.

Pei Xiang smiled and nodded, and explained in a gentle voice:

"It's really unnecessary. But since Lilia gave me such a precious gift, I can't just stand by and watch her plight. I have to ask her what she wants, and then decide how to help her."

Dagger remained silent, but stopped making any sound.

Pei Xiang suddenly sighed softly:

"Mr. Dagger, do you think the queen of that year saw my choice today in the book, so she gave the magic book to her little daughter? Also, did she find that even if she relied on the magic book The knowledge prolongs the life, but it cannot avoid and resolve the hardships that the children will encounter in the future? So she gave up the hope of life, and gave up the opportunity to grow up with the children, just for today's scene."

After she finished her guess, without waiting for the dagger to answer, she changed the subject and continued:

"Besides, I have been looking for the truth about the warrior He Qiu's victory over the Great Demon King 1000 years ago. Now I have only explored half of it, and the rest of the ending may be hidden in the country of Bolai. So, from the perspective of the beginning and the end , I have to go too. Mr. Dagger, don't you want to visit the hometown of the man who successfully conquered the Great Demon King?"
