On his knees, a purple wood cane as thick as a thumb lay across the surface. The head of the staff is decorated with a golden eagle, with mother-of-pearl inlay around the edge and a circle of reliefs on it. It is a large piece of pale silver acanthus leaves surrounding the eagle head in the middle. It looks low-key and luxurious.

The overall stick body is about the thickness of an adult's thumb.

Card Xiu suppressed the excitement in his heart, first sat on the sofa and looked around carefully, playing with it for a while. It can be regarded as a personality that suits my antique lover. After chatting with Matthew for five or six minutes while watching, he excused himself to go to the toilet.

On both sides of the carpeted rectangular corridor, there are copper wall lamps at regular intervals. The wall lamp exudes soft yellow light, illuminating the entire corridor very warmly.

Ka Xiu was walking towards the toilet at this moment. He glanced at no one in front and behind him, then reached out and bit his thumb hard.

Suddenly a bloody wound appeared.

His thumb gently pressed on the staff, and for a moment, Ka Xiu felt a large stream of cold air licking his wounds like an octopus. In the next second, these airflows rushed in, and Ka Xiu's entire right arm went numb.

The bitter taste spread from his arms to his mouth. What was born along with it was a strong cold feeling.

It is clearly June, the beginning of summer. Kaxiu felt as if he was in an ice cellar, his face was numb and he was trembling.

It felt like swallowing a big mouthful of ice cubes all at once on a hot day. The chill hit my brain and made my whole body feel numb.

But fortunately, the bitterness and chill go away just as quickly as they come.

In just a few seconds, Ka Xiu absorbed all the icy coldness, and the airflow no longer came out of the cane.

"Huh..." He pressed one hand on the wall and let out a long breath. Looking up, numbers gradually appear above the perspective.

"Obsession Energy: 1.1"

Taking the obsessional energy required to look back at the times as a unit, then this purple wood cane contains every bit of obsessional energy. A bit more energy than a backtrace requires.

"Sure enough, the obsessional energy contained in different antiques is also different. I don't know what this energy intensity is related to..."

Kashi rubbed the cane in his hand and murmured to himself.

He glanced at the upper right corner again, above the obsession energy display bar. The rune symbol of a wind ivory pendant hangs alone at the top, with no other symbols appearing next to it.

Like a wooden cane with a gold eagle on top.

Squint your eyes and take a closer look. Ka Xiu understood.

Not all obsessive antiques can produce rune marks like the wind ivory pendant, more just possess the energy of obsession. In other words, there are actually two categories of antiques.

The first type is what Cardiff calls legendary antiques.

For example, the wind ivory pendant, this kind of antique can not only contain the energy of obsession, but also have the obsession retrospect node of the original owner, which allows Ka Xiu to perform retroactive practice. For example, Levi, the original owner of the Wind Ivory Pendant, has three important nodes.

The youth training camp incident, the battle to annihilate the family, and the road to revenge.

The second type, Ka Xiu calls it the obsessive antique.

As the name suggests, there is only obsession energy in the antique, but there are no obsession nodes like the wind ivory pendant. For example, the purple wood cane he just absorbed only provides an energy source.

After coming back to his senses, Ka Xiu looked down at his thumb, the wound had already formed a scab. He glanced at the wall on the right, and there was a blood spot on the smooth and smooth wall. It was the one he pressed against the wall with his right hand just now. The blood stain was very small, and Ka Xiu wiped it off casually.

Turning around, the sound of footsteps gradually spread towards the toilet.

Ka Xiu simply washed his hands and also cleaned the bloody cane. He turned around and walked back the way he came.

Walk out of the corridor and come to the hall of the villa. A black shoe stepped on the marble floor and froze for an instant. Ka Xiu clicked his tongue, glanced at the cane in his hand, and then clicked his tongue again. He understood instantly: "In addition to the purple wood cane, there are also obsessive antiques in this villa!!!"

As expected of a wealthy businessman who owns several cross-city companies, he has a lot of antique collections at home! A lot of harvest today...

For such a surprising windfall, a smile from the heart appeared on Ka Xiu's face.

"Yes, I just walked all the way from the living room. The reason why I didn't notice anything unusual is because I was holding a purple wood cane in my hand. The other obsession is the bitter smell of antiques from a distance, and the bitter smell caused by the purple wood cane at a close distance. It’s not obvious in front of you.”

"Since I have sensed it, there is no reason to let it go. I only need the obsession energy inside. As long as the antique is not a legendary antique, I can completely absorb the obsession energy and put it back." Ka Xiu I was thinking in my heart.

He recalled that when he and Matthew asked to go to the toilet just now, they didn't specify whether they wanted a small one or a large one. If it's a big one, it's quite normal to spend a few minutes in the toilet.

When he thought of this, Ka Xiu quickly glanced around.

There was no one, not even the occasional waiter walking back and forth.

He immediately walked into the hall and searched for the source of the bitter taste with his tongue like the nose of a rescue dog. The closer he gets to the obsessive antique, the bitter taste in Ka Xiu's mouth will become stronger.

Two or three minutes passed, and he roughly walked around the entire hall. I am increasingly convinced that the source is on the second or third floor.

On the right side of the hall is a spiral staircase with a bronze metal handrail on one side and a ball handle at the front.

Ka Xiu raised his head and glanced upward, tapping his toes. The whole person instantly jumped up like an agile cheetah, very fast. It took a few seconds to reach the stairwell of the second floor.

And no sound was made in the process.

To be honest, it is impossible for a secret martial practitioner to starve to death due to stupidity. Just this ability to control body muscles can make him an excellent thief. It's easy to climb over walls, climb up walls, and walk silently, and you can even slip away easily if you're spotted.

However, no secret martial arts practitioners would do such shameful things as stealing property. They have other ways to make money.

Standing at the stairway on the second floor, Kaxiu felt something. The source of the bitter taste has basically been determined to be on the second floor of the villa.

In front is a spacious hall like the one on the first floor, with a circle of cabinets, coffee tables, sofas, and the like, and several oil paintings on the walls. Potted plants and decorative antiques line the corners.

Further away is a left and right corridor, which seems to lead to different areas on the second floor. There are occasional rooms in the corridor. At the end of the right side, there is an occasional sound coming from a dark red wooden door. A brass label on top read the letters: Study.

"White Bird, my son was attacked by people from Sanddust..."
