Those professional books can easily cost one or two hundred silver coins, and if they are a little thicker, they can even be sold for one gold coin.
Are the things in this library books?
That's all money!
They both presented their rose badges at the entrance, and the administrator handed them two pairs of thin gloves. He said in a cold tone, "You two, you are only authorized to read books on the first floor. Please take good care of the books while you read. If you are found to have intentionally damaged a book, you will not only be required to pay the full price for it, but you will also lose your access to the Secret Library."
"We understand."
Administrator, let him go.
Xu Mu and Chi Jinlian walked in side by side. He looked at the vast collection of books and asked, "Chi Jinlian, with so many books, where do we start looking?"
"You ignorant people, take a good look at what Miss Chi Jinlian is doing!"
knock --
Chi Jinlian stopped beside a pillar, bent her knuckles and knocked on the pillar.
"Om."
The next moment, a strange noise was heard. A dark green magic circle appeared on the pillar. Chi Jinlian extended her finger again and wrote the word "Twelve" below the magic circle.
"Hoohoo!"
The next moment, a series of sounds rang out one after another.
Xu Mu looked up and saw that among the books on the first floor of the library, there were hundreds of books emitting a faint green light!
This is……
Xu Mu looked surprised and asked, "Keyword search?"
Chi Jinlian glanced at him and said, "That's a fitting statement, but it's called 'Calling the Book Spirit,' a trick used in every library. I just wrote down 'Twelve,' and those books flashing green all contain 'Twelve.' Now all we have to do is split up and look for them."
Da da da.
She walked gracefully, her high heels tapping on the floor.
As she put on her gloves, she turned around and said, "Leave the left one to me, and the right one to you. Okay?"
Xu Mu also put on gloves: "Of course no problem."
……
……
"Call the Book Spirit" is very useful. It not only retrieves books with keywords, but also marks the page numbers where the text appears.
It is really convenient.
It feels not much different from Baidu.
Xu Mu found the first book emitting green light and discovered that it was a popular novel titled "The Rose Queen and Her Twelve Husbands".
what?
This……
Probably not?
Xu Mu turned to the pages that emitted green light. There were indeed the word "twelve" on those pages, but they were just measure words.
Twelve people, twelve pairs of hands, twelve times, and so on.
no way.
Xu Mu and Chi Jinlian had no idea what to do, so they could only use clumsy methods to figure it out slowly.
In the next half hour, Xu Mu eliminated twenty or thirty books in succession. He was not in a hurry and walked towards the next book with a calm expression.
"Ok?"
Next book, surprise him!
That is--
"The Magic Princess Spell Master"?
There is no mistake, it must be the Demon Princess who manipulates the magic.
Xu Mu would not mistake the slender woman on the cover who was wearing a pure white nun's robe and had a piece of black silk covering her eyes. She looked very much like the Sword Saint.
When he got closer, he picked it up and saw that it was indeed the magician of the Demon Princess.
It’s the eighth volume that just came out last month.
Xu Mu had already read the story carefully with a critical attitude. The plot was nothing more than the sudden appearance of the "Eighth Demon Princess" and the successful taming of her by the protagonist after some romantic adventures. There was nothing new about it.
Nor could it be related to Violet's rubbing.
Not to mention anything else, the timing doesn’t match.
The only thing that puzzled Xu Mu was...
The magic girl's magician not only has a green light, but also a blue light.
How is this going?
Is anyone else looking for this book?
"Hey, brother, you want to read the eighth volume of The Magic Princess Manipulator too?"
A voice sounded from the side!
Xu Mu's face was serious. He turned around and saw a young man dressed as a scholar, with acne all over his face and looking extremely energetic standing behind him!
With a hint of excitement in his eyes, he added, "Today I've finally met a colleague! Brother, let me tell you this—throughout history, there have been countless writers of erotic novels, and 'Dripping Queen,' who writes about demon concubines and sorcerers, is either number one or number two! Her writing style is concise, her brushwork is divine, and she can capture the full spectrum of eroticism in just a few sentences! Under her pen, those 'demon concubines' have a kind of hysterical allure. I just finished reading the seventh volume yesterday, and I'm a little tired of it!"
"..."
Can you please lower your voice?
What's there to be proud of when reading this kind of book!
Xu Mu looked around and luckily there was no one around.
He put the "Magic Princess Manipulator" back to its place and said, "You usually read this kind of thing? It's so lascivious. I don't even read it."
"Why are you pretending? We are all men."
The scholar acted like he knew Xu Mu very well. He laughed, then suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Have you heard? The Dripping Queen has recently decided to publish two extra chapters!"
Xu Mu was startled and asked, "Extra?"
"Yes! These two extra chapters are very expensive, this much for each one—"
Scholar, hold up three fingers.
Xu Mu nodded. "Three hundred silver coins? That's quite expensive indeed. I heard from my friend that the main story of "The Magic Princess Spell Master" is only eighty silver coins. How can the extra story be so much more expensive?"
"What three hundred silver coins? Three gold coins!"
"what?"
no--
Why do you need three gold coins?
The Dripping Queen hasn’t woken up yet!
The scholar continued mysteriously, "Of course there's a trick to this... There's a long-standing legend in the industry that this 'Dripping Queen' is a female author, and a stunningly beautiful one at that. This time, she's releasing a sequel, selling the text for real, not the photos! The news has already been released: buy the sequel and get twelve free private photos. I heard from the publisher that it's quite revealing."
PS: I didn’t want to update it! But the photoshop of the last picture seemed too heavy, how can I do this?
This is a funny novel with joy as its underlying tone, and it does not involve any sensationalism or pity.
Everyone, I'll put today's twelfth update here first, see you tomorrow!

Chapter 103 #102 Welfare Girl, I understand
Ok.
Found a familiar feeling in an unexpected place.
Welfare girl.
I understand.
Xu Mu hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Three gold coins is too high a price... How beautiful must those twelve photos be to be worth that much? I won't buy them—oh, I didn't read the book anyway."
The scholar smiled mysteriously and suddenly quipped, "Treasures are easy to come by, but private photos are hard to come by! Brother, think about it carefully. What if this 'Dripping Queen' is really a stunningly beautiful girl? Wouldn't those three gold coins be worth it?"
"..."
What's worth it?
Aren’t they just a few photos?
Seeing Xu Mu remain silent, the scholar shook his head and said, "Anyway, I personally really want to buy it, and three gold coins isn't a lot of money. My only concern now is that the Dripping Queen might not be as beautiful as the publisher says. Spending money on a few private photos that I can't use... that would be a huge loss."
Can’t use it?
How do you want to use it?
Be clear!
Xu Mu didn't want to say anything more. He put the books in his hand on the bookshelf and said, "Take care of yourself, brother. Take care of yourself."
"Save it, save it."
The scholar picked up the book that Xu Mu had put back and put his hands together: "Thank you for your humility, brother. May you live a peaceful life."
Xu Mu watched him leave in a hurry, not really caring.
He turned around and continued to grope in the sea of books.
The keyword "twelve" was too broad, and the information retrieved was basically useless. After wandering around the bookshelves for an entire afternoon, Xu Mu finally came out with a book.
On the other side, Chi Jinlian also completed her work.
She held three books in her arms and asked, "How is it? Did you gain anything?"
Xu Mu showed his findings: "I think this book might be related."
"Really? Well, let's go back and study it first."
"Let's go."
……
……
"Customs of the State of Li".
This was a textual research book introducing the culture of the Li Kingdom. Chi Jinlian pointed to a section and said, "Here, the Li Kingdom has the saying 'Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, and the Twelve Zodiac Signs.' The Twelve Zodiac Signs refer to twelve animals. Master Violet may have used this tradition of the Li people to create rubbings."
Xu Mu didn't even raise his eyelids, he was familiar with the twelve zodiac signs.
but--
He said, "Isn't Violet from Li Country? Why would she study the twelve zodiac animals?"
"She's a citizen of the 'Land of the Radiant Gems,' a small country in the west. But Master Violet is well-versed in both ancient and modern knowledge, so we can't rule this out, can we?"
Chi Jinlian retorted while taking out the second book.
"Travel Guide to the Land of Gems".
This is a local customs book that introduces the beautiful scenery, wonders and stunning views of the Land of Radiant Gem. The author is a famous traveler.
Chi Jinlian continued, "This book describes more than twelve landscapes. I checked the borrowing records and found that Violet had borrowed this book before. So, I don't think we can ignore it."
Xu Mu nodded. "Indeed. Of course, I won't forget the scenery of my motherland. Violet might choose twelve of her favorite scenes to make rubbings of."
The third book.
