I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world
#1945 - Half a jade pendant
"In the 1,314th year of the Kaiyuan Era, the Holy Pagoda descended upon the world and suppressed all gods, demons, monsters, and ghosts. There was no more extraordinary magic in the world."
"From now on, the world has entered the mortal age."
"After hundreds of years of chaos, the Human Emperor ascended the throne and unified the world. After more than a thousand years of development, the human race reached its peak."
"But everything has its limits, and prosperity must decline."
"The dynasty is in decline now, treacherous officials are in power, and the general was wrongly killed and wars broke out everywhere, and the people are living in misery. If the general was still alive, it would not be like this!"
In the school.
The Master became more and more excited as he spoke, and finally he began to beat his chest and stamp his feet.
The students listening to the lecture below were all concentrating.
But they did not resonate with the Master. They had no feelings for the general. The reason they were so serious was that they were interested in the holy tower that the Master mentioned.
"Sir, is the Holy Tower really like the legend says, and can anyone enter it?"
A muscular young man raised his hand to ask, interrupting the old man's excitement.
The other students were also looking forward to it.
The old man took a deep breath.
He glanced at the dozen or so students below and shook his head.
While tidying up his clothes, he said, "Anyone can enter the Holy Pagoda, but it is in the Imperial City. Although the imperial dynasty is weak now, not everyone can go there. For those of you who are not up to the task, it will be difficult for you to leave Qingyang County in your lifetime."
After saying that, he waved his hand.
"Okay, that's all for today, let's go home."
The students were a little disappointed that they couldn't hear the "secret" of the Holy Tower, but when they heard that the school would be dismissed early, they immediately became excited and ran out of the classroom.
"Sanbao, please stay for a moment."
The old teacher stopped the muscular young man who was about to leave the classroom.
"oh."
The strong boy could only walk back to his seat.
Wait until everyone has left.
The old man glanced at the muscular young man and asked, "I heard you want to drop out of school, what's the reason?"
"I want to take Li Tietui as my master!"
The muscular young man was not at all nervous and answered confidently.
"Li Tietui?"
The old man frowned.
"So you plan to give up literature and pursue martial arts, and don't want to pass the imperial examination and bring honor to your family?"
Li Tietui is a martial artist in the town and is considered to be quite famous, but in the eyes of literati, people who practice martial arts are synonymous with vulgarity.
The muscular young man glanced at the old man.
He said bluntly: "In today's world, what's the point of passing the imperial examination?"
The old man was stunned.
I want to refute, but I don't know how to start.
After a while, he said in a deep voice: "Don't you want to go to the Holy Pagoda? Only those who pass the imperial examination can enter the Imperial City. You won't have the chance to learn those farming skills."
The muscular young man remained silent.
The muscular young man picked up his school bag, bowed to the old teacher, and left the school.
The students who had been traveling with him had already gone far away, so he was not in a hurry and walked home slowly, while thinking in his mind how to tell his mother about this when he returned.
But do it anyway.
It has been fourteen years since I came into this world. I couldn’t do anything before because I was too young, but now that I can move independently, I can’t waste time any longer.
He doesn't want to stay in this mountain valley forever.
Think of this.
The muscular young man raised his hand and looked at the ring on it.
I pulled it with my hands, but couldn't pull it off.
Then he touched the birthmark on his neck.
Very hard.
Like a scale.
The muscular young man's eyes flickered.
Whether it is the ring or the birthmark, there is nothing abnormal from the outside.
In addition to these two things, there is also a chess piece.
According to his mother, he was born with these three things, so he was named Chen Sanbao.
However, Sanbao is just a nickname. His real name is Chen Lin. It is said that he lacks wood in the five elements, so the name is used to complete it.
Born with treasure.
This kind of thing is too shocking, and no one knows this secret except him and his mother.
There are even two secrets that even his mother doesn't know.
Chen Lin walked along the country road, thinking about his own situation.
He is actually not from this world, but a time traveler. The place where he lived in his previous life was called Earth, which is also a mortal world, but it is much more exciting than here.
Another secret is that he has a "special ability".
This special ability is very obscure, and he only discovered it by chance three years ago.
What a pity.
This special ability is not of the offensive type and cannot enhance his combat capability, otherwise he would have gone out to explore the world long ago.
The effect is even a bit useless.
That is the ability to create items that you cannot complete on your own.
It sounds good, but it has many limitations.
Not only does he need to be very familiar with the production process, but he also needs to repeat the production continuously. Only after ten times will the effect of the ability appear.
It is basically dispensable.
Although this is the case.
When Chen Lin discovered that he possessed this ability, he was also filled with excitement. After all, no matter how rubbish it was, it was still the legendary golden finger.
Moreover, because of the Holy Tower, all extraordinary things in this world have disappeared, which makes him even more special.
This was also the reason why he wanted to give up literature and take up military service and enter the imperial city.
Ever since he could remember, he had been preparing, secretly training some subordinates, and making several powerful weapons. He would start the uprising as soon as the number of weapons reached a certain level.
but.
The goal of entering the imperial city is not just to become emperor, but more to understand one's own situation.
In the novel, Jia Baoyu was born with a jade in his mouth, and he only brought one thing with him, but he brought three things with him. They must have some special use, and it would be really uncomfortable if we don't find out.
in addition.
Chen Lin always has a feeling.
I seem to have forgotten something important and need to find the answer in that holy tower.
"What, you dropped out of school?"
After returning home, Chen Lin took the initiative to confess that he had dropped out of school, which made his mother furious.
He immediately picked up the feather duster and was about to punish him.
"No, mother. I can't listen to those nonsense. It's useless to go to school. I might as well learn martial arts. Brother Wang said that if I learn martial arts with my physique, I will definitely achieve great things!"
Chen Lin hurriedly explained.
"What's wrong with that? If you don't want to go to school, you can farm or learn a craft. In short, you can't learn martial arts!"
Chen's mother did not take any action, but her attitude was very firm.
"Why?"
This situation made Chen Lin very confused.
He also felt that his mother seemed to be very resistant to learning martial arts, but now there are wars everywhere, and learning martial arts can protect oneself, so there is no reason to object.
"No, it just can't."
Chen's mother's tone left no room for doubt.
Seeing this, Chen Lin did not refute.
He knew that his mother doted on him, and as long as he persisted, he would achieve his goal.
Just delay it for a few days.
really.
After a few days, Chen's mother's attitude softened.
But there is also a request.
If you want to learn martial arts, you can, but you need to start a family first.
Chen Lin was speechless.
This request is too ridiculous.
He is only fourteen years old now. Isn't it too early for him to get married?
Moreover, he wanted to enter the imperial city and become the emperor, so it would be too hasty to decide on the queen now. Therefore, he refused with a firm attitude.
But his mother was more determined than him.
"Why should I get married first? I'm only fourteen now. They say that you can see initial results after three years of learning martial arts. It won't be too late to get married then, right?"
Chen Lin had no choice but to negotiate calmly.
"snort."
Mother Chen snorted.
He glared at her and said, "Do you think I don't know your little thoughts? Don't you just think you are extraordinary and want to learn some kung fu to venture out into the world?"
Seeing that her son was silent, she sighed softly.
Continue to persuade.
"The world is too chaotic nowadays, and it's too dangerous to venture out. Although this place is remote, I can still fill my stomach. And even if you can be a powerful figure in a region, life is only a few decades long. No matter how high your position is, it will be nothing more than a dream."
"Mother is wrong."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Chen Lin immediately refuted.
“It is precisely because life is short that we should meet different people, do different things, and appreciate different scenery. Otherwise, what is the difference between living a hundred years and living one day?”
Then the tone of voice became higher.
He said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "God gave me the body of a dragon, how can I act like an ant!"
Mother Chen was stunned.
The person in front of her seemed not to be her son, but the upright and upright deceased husband who had appeared in her dreams countless times.
"well!"
Sigh.
Mother Chen walked forward and touched her son's face.
Then he turned around and walked to the cabinet, pushed it hard, and the cabinet moved sideways.
Revealing the dusty ground below.
"Go get the shovel."
Mother Chen said to Chen Lin.
"ah."
Chen Lin screamed and quickly ran outside to get the shovel.
“Dig here.”
Mother Chen pointed to the wall.
Without hesitation, Chen Lin immediately stepped forward and started digging hard.
After digging about two feet deep, I heard a ding sound and it seemed that I had dug up something hard.
After expanding the surrounding soil, a small sealed jar was revealed.
"What's this?"
Chen Lin took out the jar in surprise.
"Your father's legacy."
Mother Chen picked up the jar, carefully placed it on the cabinet, and gently wiped the dirt off it.
This made Chen Lin's eyes flash.
He wondered if there were the ashes of his father, whom he had never met.
However, there is no cremation in this world. People believe in burying the dead in peace. Logically, there should be no such thing as ashes.
Chen Lin watched quietly.
My mother never talked about my father. I asked her many times since I was a child, but I never got an answer.
Even the neighbors didn't know who his father was.
Their family moved here later. When they arrived, there was only their mother, and their father has always been a mystery.
Half a quarter of an hour later.
Chen's mother wiped the jar clean.
Then open the lid.
Chen Lin curiously went over to check and found that there was no ashes inside, but a small oilcloth package.
After taking it out and opening it, two items were revealed.
A golden token.
There is also half a jade pendant.
Mother Chen picked up the token first and stroked it for a while.
Then walk to the door.
He looked around for a while, then locked the door and returned to Chen Lin.
His expression became serious.
"Lin'er, kneel down!"
Chen's mother held the token and gave instructions to Chen Lin.
"thump."
Chen Lin immediately knelt down on the ground.
Although he is a time traveler, his previous life is the previous life and this life is this life. In this life, he is Chen Sanbao.
"Listen carefully!"
Mother Chen's tone was serious.
He said in a deep voice: "Your father is the great general Chen Wentian who died unjustly, and you are his only bloodline left in the world. Since you are unwilling to be mediocre, then reactivate this general order and avenge your father!"
"I……"
Chen Lin opened his mouth without saying a word.
He didn't expect that his own mother also had a secret hidden from him.
It’s still a big secret!
The great general Chen Wentian was the one mentioned by the old teacher in the school. He was a man who was once able to suppress the dynasty, but because of this, he was feared by the emperor of the time and his family was exterminated due to the frame-up of treacherous officials.
It is rumored that all 136 members of the family were killed.
I didn't expect that he would be left behind as a 'remnant'.
"Why, are you scared?"
Mother Chen raised her eyebrows.
At this moment, she no longer looked like a village woman. Her eyes became unusually sharp, and she seemed very disappointed with Chen Lin's reaction.
"Hahaha!"
Chen Lin laughed out loud.
He puffed out his chest and said, "How could I be afraid? I am just too excited. With this status, it will be easier for me to achieve success. Mother, just wait for me to break through the imperial city and take the emperor's dog head to worship at my father's grave!"
Mother Chen stared at her son in a daze.
Both happy and worried.
It took a while before he put the token in Chen Lin's hand.
He asked Chen Lin to stand up and said, "Although the imperial power is unstable now, it still has absolute control over the country. The road to revenge will be a life-and-death struggle. However, your father still has some remnants who are now hiding in various places. You can take this order to mobilize them, and perhaps they can help you."
"And this half of the jade pendant."
Mother Chen picked up the jade pendant again.
"This thing was obtained by your father before he died. It has a magical property. Whenever you place it under the moonlight on a full moon night, it will gather the moonlight on it, like liquid."
"It's a pity that there's only half a piece."
"Your father said that he got this item from the Holy Pagoda and wanted to keep it as a family heirloom for the Chen family so that his descendants can continue to look for their other half. Maybe they can get a glimpse into the secrets of the ancient gods and immortals."
After saying.
Mother Chen placed half of the jade pendant in Chen Lin's hand.
Then a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
When the jade pendant was placed in Chen Lin's hand, it immediately emitted a bright light, and a faint pattern emerged inside!
Chen Lin was also very surprised.
Besides glowing, the jade pendant seemed to be very close to him.
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it..."
Mother Chen looked at the jade pendant with a changing expression.
He immediately asked with concern: "Is there anything wrong with Lin'er's body?"
Chen Lin shook his head.
"No, on the contrary, I feel very comfortable, as if this thing should belong to me."
Hearing Chen Lin's answer, Chen's mother felt relieved.
"That's good. It means you have a connection with this item. So you can take it. But don't let others see it. Especially on a full moon night, you must not show it to outsiders."
"Don't worry, mother."
Mother Chen nodded.
She knew her son was precocious and would not do anything irrational.
Moreover, his son was born with three treasures, which made him different from others. Perhaps he could really turn the world upside down and avenge their Chen family.
Her eyes gradually became firm.
"Since you want to do it, then go ahead and do it. But you don't have to worship Li Tietui as your master. Your father is a great general, and our Chen family has no shortage of martial arts!"
