A certain sword soul's infinite journey

Chapter 305 Dangerous Egg
"That's right!"

There was a hint of solemnity in Elder Qin's voice.

"When handing over this egg, the descendants of the Liu family told us that not every generation of their ancestors was willing to guard an egg so ridiculously, so in so many years of history, there have been people who have had doubts about their mission. Doubt and even resentment, but due to the limitations of etiquette and family education, they could not put their doubts and resentment on the head of their ancestor Liu Bowen."

"So...they turned to the egg."

Hearing Elder Qin's words, Lin Yi frowned, and drove away Lin Keheng who was wandering around, turned around and carefully looked at the intact egg in front of him, and the interest on his face became more and more intense.

Obviously, the Liu family did not succeed.

Elder Qin said with a little emotion: "In order to destroy this egg and liberate myself from the mission left by my ancestors, those Liu family members exhausted all means back then, but no matter whether it was burning with fire or chopping with knives and axes , and even the fall of the boulder cannot cause the slightest damage to this egg."

"Not only that, this egg has become stronger and even heavier under the repeated destruction of the Liu family. This is something they can't understand at all...Finally, after several years of trying, those who originally doubted their own The Liu family of the mission gave up their previous ideas in despair and turned into loyal supporters of Liu Bowen's words."

"Since then, whenever descendants start to doubt this mission, the Liu family will take out this indestructible egg to prove that what the ancestors said is true..."

Lin Yi couldn't help frowning and asked, "So, this egg has been in the hands of the descendants of the Liu family for 600 years?"

Mr. Qin sighed after hearing the words: "That's not the case. In 1644, when Li Zicheng stayed in Shandong's army, a cavalry squad pretended to be horse bandits and ransacked Liu's village. Get off that egg."

"But within a week after that egg was taken away, Li Zicheng's army was defeated by the Qing army and Wu Sangui in Beijing. The chief general Liu Zongmin was injured and ordered to retreat urgently."

"At the same time, local officials and local gentry took advantage of the situation to overthrow the regime of Dashun and return it to the Ming Dynasty. However, Nanming, which was established in Nanjing at that time, did not send officials to Shandong and other places to recover the lost land, and Li Zicheng was busy. Then they fought against the Qing army in Shanxi and Shaanxi, so the entire Shandong and surrounding areas became a no-regret zone.”

"Without the jurisdiction of the political power, there are bandits everywhere in Shandong, big and small bandits emerge in endlessly, and wars and disputes are endless. There are only a dozen bandits whose names are left in the history books. The Dashun Army who stayed in Shandong lost contact with the main force. , and became a half-officer and half-rogue army."

"In such a chaotic situation, the team that looted the Liujiazhuangzi was inexplicably wiped out by several bandits who wanted to take advantage of the Dashun army. The egg was also inexplicably lost in the battle, and in the end it was inexplicably returned to the hands of the descendants of the Liu family..."

Following Qin Lao's narration, Lin Yi became more and more interested in the origin of this egg.

Of course, Lin Yi also understood that Mr. Qin was reminding himself that he used three inexplicable things in a row to express his incomprehension of this matter, in order to remind Lin Yi not to underestimate this one in the circle. The famous egg.

"...So even if they got this egg, the Taoist sect would only dare to let the descendants of the Liu family guard it."

Hearing this sentence, Lin Yi was slightly taken aback, and immediately reacted.

"The person who delivered the goods to me is also a descendant of the Liu family?"

"Yes."

"Then he dropped the egg and left?"

"That's right."

Hearing this sentence, Lin Yi's head was full of black lines.

"Aren't you afraid that this egg will cause some disturbance in my place?"

"Don't be afraid, you are no worse than Liu Bowen."

"..."

Lin Yi's cheek muscles twitched slightly, not knowing whether he should be happy or angry.

After thinking about it, he had no choice but to change the subject.

"So you think the egg is still alive?"

"Naturally there is more than one reason..."

Elder Qin sighed again.

"About 80 years ago, we got this egg and heard the stories passed down from generation to generation by the Liu family, but the Daoists at that time were still relatively young, and there was a trace of disdain and contempt for these old legends, so we consulted According to the opinions of the descendants of the Liu family, and with their permission, various tests were carried out on this egg, but the results...you have also seen it."

Lin Yi curled his lips, looking at the intact eggshell in front of him, which was as clean as ever.

"You didn't do any harm to it?"

"Yes, we used bed crossbows, grenades, firearms, and even rocket launchers, but none of them could harm him, so we changed our minds and planned to use microscopes and other advanced observation methods to study its eggshell structure .”

"The results of it?"

"Still useless."

"why?"

"Because in terms of structure alone, the eggshell of this egg is no different from other oviparous animals."

Speaking of this, Elder Qin's tone carried a hint of helplessness.

Lin Yi was amazed, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with Daomen's actions, because even he, after hearing such a legend, felt that the sword in his hand was about to move.

Mr. Qin continued: "And not only at the beginning, with the advancement and development of science and technology over the years, we have also conducted further tests on this egg, trying to obtain some new discoveries, but all attempts ended in failure. "

"Including talismans and formations?"

"That's right..."

That would be so much fun!

A smile appeared on Lin Yi's face.

Now he is very eager to know the origin of this egg. As for how to know... Of course, put this egg in the inventory, and then look at the name the system recognizes for it!
"Although the original attempts have failed, we are not without gains. When we use the most penetrating gamma rays to shoot at the eggshell, the feedback results confirm one of our previous guesses."

"Have you detected the vital signs in the eggshell?"

"Yes, it is indeed alive."

Hearing this sentence, Lin Yi temporarily suppressed the impulse in his heart, and asked Qin Lao one last question.

"Then why do you think I can wake up this egg?"

"Because you have completed our inheritance."

"Just because of this?"

"That's enough. You may not know that during the more than 600 years that the Liu family has guarded this egg, no one has stepped into our circle. All Liu family members have been ordinary people for generations."

"……how can that be?"

"Why is it impossible."

Elder Qin sighed and explained to Lin Yi.

"Liu Bowen's ability is too dreadful, and he himself knew about it, so before he died, Liu Bowen made an agreement with the entire practice world at that time, that he would bring his own ability into the coffin, and at the same time guarantee his own The descendants are all mortals from generation to generation, in exchange for the continuous generation of the Liu family."

"As soon as this appointment was made, all practitioners readily agreed. This also led to the fact that although the descendants of the Liu family knew about the practice world, no one was willing to teach them. As time went on, the entire Liu family gradually became real ordinary people."

Hearing Elder Qin's explanation, Lin Yi nodded thoughtfully.

"So you and the other Taoist elders feel that the succession of generations completed by me is the key?"

"That's right, specifically, it's the innate energy you found."

As he said that, Elder Qin's words paused, and there was a hint of expectation in the tone that sounded again.

"Have you tried it with Xiantian Qi?"

"Not yet, I plan to try it in a safe place."

"You're right. I was thinking too hastily. If the rumors about this egg are true, then motivating it may cause some unpredictable consequences... Well, I should be more cautious. !"

"Well, I'll find a safer place, try it out with my means, record the whole process of the attempt, and then send the video and the results to you."

"Okay, remember to use a few more seats!"

"..."

Lin Yi hung up the phone speechlessly.

Scratching his ear and scratching his cheek, Lin Keheng, who had been listening for a long time, saw that he had hung up the phone, so he hurriedly came over curiously.

Behind him, Zheng Shangqi was also very curious about Lin Yi's words just now, but he caught a glimpse of Lin Keheng who was impatient, and immediately stopped in his tracks, waiting for Lin Keheng to ask what he wanted to ask first. question.

"Little Martial Uncle, Little Martial Uncle!"

"What 600 years? What descendants of the Liu family?"

"Is it still alive? Is the egg still alive?"

"What's in it?"

"Azure dragon? Phoenix? Or Qi... woo woo woo!"

Lin Yi covered Lin Keheng's mouth with black lines all over his head, raised his arms by the way, and waved at Zheng Shangqi.

Zheng Shangqi was slightly taken aback, and quickly walked over, calling "Senior Brother" respectfully.

Lin Yi nodded slightly, and patted the noisy Lin Keheng on the head.

After he calmed down, he let go of his hand, looked at the two and said in a serious tone.

"I have something to do now, I have to leave here first, and the things sent by the Daomen will be moved directly to my room. Don't put them downstairs, and don't rummage around before I come back, otherwise it may be dangerous. have you understood?"

"I understand."

Zheng Shangqi nodded solemnly.

Lin Keheng on the side kept nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice, but Lin Yi in front of him not only ignored him, but also looked at Zheng Shangqi seriously and said, "Look at this brat."

Zheng Shangqi also replied seriously: "I will."

"Hello!"

Lin Keheng looked at the two of them dissatisfied, and kept jumping beside them.

But it was a pity that Lin Yi ignored his movements, stepped over him, put the egg into the wooden box, and hugged the box together.

"Finally, remember, no one can say anything about this egg."

After finishing speaking, Lin Yi turned around and went downstairs.
