"I see. Why is this statue holding a book in its hand for no reason?" Yi Liuling watched as the chamber pot pricked her finger and smeared the blood on the cover of a book held by the c statue.

The blood was quickly absorbed until every drop was left, and the book also emitted a golden light. The jade on the surface gradually receded, turning into a golden-covered book, which fell into the hand of the chamber pot.

The chamber pot turned the book over, revealing the words on the cover: Daily Notes. It was written in Common Language, and it seemed to be the same one that the Qi family had previously.

But in this case, Yi Liuling became a little curious: "It stands to reason that since this kind of book is used to record the daily life of the city lord, it should be used often, right? Does it have to use blood every time?"

Hearing Yi Liuling's question, the chamber pot smiled and explained his doubts while flipping through the pages.

It turns out that the book itself is an epic prop. It is said that it was a blueprint given to Suojia High School when they had good relations with Mary City, so it is extremely difficult to destroy. Each generation of city lords had to establish a temporary contract with them before they could leave their mark on it.

Therefore, although the name is called Daily Notes, this thing can actually be regarded as the city lord's diary.

But the city lord himself is not the only one who can open this book. His blood relatives can also open it with blood and read it, but they cannot leave any words. Moreover, this is limited to relatively close relatives, such as cousins. If they are distant relatives separated by several layers, this book will not recognize them.

The reason why the read-only mode function was added was mainly because once something happened to the city lord, he might leave some important information in the notes. On the one hand, this information can be used to help the city lord, and on the other hand, it can also prevent some family secrets from being lost due to the death of the city lord.

Originally, both the Living Note and the Space Mirror recognized the city lord as the master by default, but unlike the Space Mirror, which had become a semi-artifact and was spiritual for the first time, the Living Note did not have such a flexible ability to choose the master. Therefore, the creator of this book originally added rules for its inheritance, that is, after the previous owner voluntarily gives up the contract or dies, his direct bloodline can activate the second contract as a basis for passing it on from generation to generation.

This setting has always worked well in the past, because the space mirror basically chooses the master among the children of the previous generation of city lords, and the living notes are activated by them when the position is passed. But that time 40,000 years ago, the situation was different.

Although Qi Qian was regarded as the popular candidate to succeed the city lord at that time, his father was still alive after all and was even in good health. Therefore, he is still the owner of the space mirror and living room.

After Qi Qian disappeared, the city lord also passed away. So judging from the relationship with the previous generation of masters, all of Qi Qian's brothers and sisters are eligible for the contract, except Qi Ji, who is the nephew of the city lord, not. However, Space Mirror chose Qi Ji as its owner, which led to the first disagreement between Living Room Note and the owner of Space Mirror.

At that time, everyone came up with a solution, which was to not recognize the owner for the time being, because the rule of direct blood relatives does not require that they must be only one generation apart. For example, there was a situation where all the sons and grandsons of a city lord died and were finally passed on to the great-grandson.

In this way, if there is a person in the city lord's lineage who is selected by the space mirror in the future, then he will still be the descendant of the original city lord, and he can transfer his living bet back. If not, you can still ask Suojia High School for help as a last resort.

This matter was indeed planned at that time, but later due to the appearance of the fate prophecy, the direct line of the city lord was completely wiped out, and everyone knew that this daily note could never be opened again. But this doesn't matter, because when every previous generation of city leaders leaves office, the previous content will be backed up, and there is no need to use it. The favors of Suojia High School are not that easy to owe.

At this point, the living note has been sealed in the treasure house of Mary City, and has temporarily become an antique collection.

It wasn't until Gru Hu returned that the Qi family learned that Qi Qian's youngest sister had survived and followed her husband to where Gru Village is now. However, the fate of that lineage was still not good. There was a brief period of prosperity, but in the end only Gruhu was left as an orphan.

After all, he was a member of his own family, and Gruhu had indeed successfully activated the Living Note, and the city lord of that generation accepted him as his adopted son. Moreover, he also came up with a method of using the daily life note at that time. After all, as long as this thing is not lost, its ability to retain information will definitely be far better than ordinary carriers.

Therefore, he thought of simply letting Gruhu, including his possible future descendants, become the historians of Mary City. On the one hand, he would prepare a corresponding position for his lineage, and on the other hand, it would also prevent competition with his descendants.

The city lord had a good idea, but his plan could not keep up with the changes. He first lost his beloved son Sieg, and then he soon died of illness. In the end, Gruhu became the new owner of Mary County, and the original Mary City also retreated to the area where Reiter Town is now. The relevant personnel were trapped in it, which was almost equivalent to exile. They had to trade with the outside world to obtain resources to survive. .

From this point of view, the things recorded in this daily note should have been directly passed down to Gruhu from Qi Qian’s father’s generation?

Just as Yi Liuling was thinking this, she heard a low exclamation from the chamber pot: "Huh?"

Blake stretched his head to look at the opened page of the chamber pot, only to find that the writing on it was extremely blurry and could not be read clearly at all.

"Wow, this anti-theft ability is really amazing." Yi Liuling sighed.

"Oh, yes, you can't see it." After being reminded by him, the chamber pot immediately relayed, "I found that the record in this book is wrong. Between Gruhu and the city lord of 40,000 years ago, there is another person in this book. Owner."

"Is there another term?" Yi Liuling thought for a moment. Since Gruhu can recognize his owner, it means that the previous owner was of the same lineage as him, but their family has moved away long ago, which means...

"Yes, that's Qi Qian's sister." Chamber Pot looked at the book and frowned, "According to what she wrote, she seemed to be very dissatisfied with the Space Mirror's choice of Qi Ji, and said that the fortune teller would not lie to her. Her lineage will eventually come back to take everything back.”

"Ah, yes, fortune teller." Yi Liuling remembered that even the group of people specially raised by the Qi family could only roughly guess the direction of destiny predictions, and often failed to solve the problem, but this fortune teller directly saved the Qi family. The survival of the girl and her descendants, "This person is extraordinary."

"Yes, and it says that she and her son were actually on the verge of death at that time. It was the fortune teller who gave them a potion to drink and brought her back from hell." The chamber pot's expression gradually became shocked. "She said here that after drinking the potion, her son quickly grew into an adult, and both of them had a peach blossom aroma."
