The sun was setting, and it was already time to light a fire for cooking, but now the whole village was gathered together, looking at a dilapidated tile-roofed house from a distance.
Outside the tiled house, in addition to the government officials from the state capital, there was also a young man who had several steel knives held to his neck.
The young man's name is Yun Ze, and he has lived in Hanshan Village since he was a child. His parents are both bodyguards, so he can be considered a martial arts family.
But he never bullies others based on his strength. Instead, he often helps the villagers and does what he can.
All the villagers also liked this child very much and took good care of him when the Yun family and his wife left home.
How could such a kind-hearted child provoke a big shot from the state capital?
boom!
There was a muffled explosion, and a wooden table smashed out and fell to pieces in front of Yunze!
This kind of strength is definitely not something ordinary people can have.
"Where's the stuff!"
A young man in brocade robes quickly came to Yunze, reached out and pinched his neck: "Hand over the things to me! Hurry up!"
Yunze's hands were tied, and besides one hand and several steel knives around his neck, he had no way to resist and could only squeeze out a few words from his throat.
"I...I don't know what you are talking about!"
"Jade pendant! Your ancestors... no, it was your ancestors who stole the jade pendant from my family!"
The tone of the young man in brocade became more and more excited.
This is a rumor he got by chance. It is said that the ancestors of the Yun family once rescued an immortal family who was in distress hundreds of years ago. In order to repay their kindness, the immortal family gave him a jade pendant. It is said that there is a fairy tale hidden in it!
But hundreds of years have passed, and no one in the Yun family has been able to get immortality from it, but the jade pendant has been passed down.
He originally thought this was just a legend, but by chance he found the Yun family and his wife who were escorting them, and planned to trap the two of them and threaten the Yun family's wife's life.
For the sake of his wife's life, the Yun family man finally told the story about the jade pendant and promised to give the jade pendant to her as long as they spared their family's lives.
Just kidding, how is this possible!
I want to inherit the immortal destiny! Wouldn’t it be bad if the immortal family knew that I had stolen the immortal destiny from his benefactor?
So after getting the information about the true existence of the jade pendant, he sent the Yun family and his wife to hell.
Now the Yun family in Hanshan Village was right in front of him, but he searched the whole house and had people strip off the boy's clothes, but he still couldn't find the legendary jade pendant!
The only possibility is that he was hidden by this kid.
"Hand it over!"
The young man in brocade roared again: "Hand over the jade pendant!"
Jade pendant?
It turns out that what you are looking for is a jade pendant!
Yunze frowned and was almost out of breath. He could only say: "Okay! Let me go and I'll give it to you!"
"good!"
The young man in golden clothes let go of his hand and wiped his hands on the Yamen servant twice with great disgust, as if he had just touched something dirty: "Boy, I warn you not to try any tricks, you can't escape here."
"Cough, cough!"
Yunze coughed twice and looked up at the young man in brocade: "You can't find that place. Let me go and I'll take you there."
"snort!"
The young man in golden clothes snorted coldly. He believed that the other party would not pose a threat to him. He raised his hand and waved the officer away.
He took out a steel knife and put it on his neck again: "Boy, you only have one chance.
If I can't find the jade pendant, I will kill all those people and turn the entire Hanshan Village upside down to look for it slowly!"
"Believe me, I can do it!"
Yunze didn't answer, just walked forward silently.
When he reached the door of the tile-roofed house, he stopped and turned to look at the young man in brocade clothes: "Where are my parents?"
The story of the jade pendant is widely circulated. In the early years, many people seeking immortality came to their house to look for it, but they could not find it. The ancestors of the Yun family have always told the outside world that it is a legend.
As time goes by, fewer and fewer people come looking for jade pendants.
Now that such a person suddenly appears, he must have gotten some news. In addition, his parents have not been back for so long, so Yunze naturally thinks of them.
Maybe... they have encountered something unexpected.
"They're doing great in the state capital!"
The young man in brocade clothes said casually: "Return the jade pendant to me quickly, and I will take you to the state capital to reunite with them!"
The state capital? I’m afraid it’s the underworld!
Yunze had already guessed the fate of his parents. He clenched his fists and was filled with anger, but he could only suppress it in his heart!
Now is not the time!
If he didn't take out the jade pendant, all the villagers in Hanshan Village would probably accompany him on the road. At least they would be innocent.
He squatted down, easily removed the threshold in front of him, and dug down a few inches to reveal a wooden box buried in the ground!
The first time he saw the wooden box, the young man in brocade shouted excitedly: "Quick! Take it out!"
He didn't reach out to take it because he was afraid that there might be some mechanism medicine powder on the wooden box.
Now there is only one final step left, so don't be in a hurry.
Yunze opened the wooden box, and a round, round jade appeared in front of the two of them!
The stream of light hit the faces of the two people, and even the gazes of the surrounding government officials were attracted, and a surge of greed surged in their hearts.
Fairy jade! Really fairy jade!
The young man's eyes were instantly caught by it, and he wanted to reach out to get it. The steel knife in his hand unconsciously lifted up and escaped from Yunze's neck.
But before he could reach out and touch the jade, Yun Ze took advantage of the situation and fished it away.
He ducked to the stone mill, held the fairy jade high in his hand, pointed it at the corner of the stone mill, and smashed it hard!
Click!
A clear sound echoed in everyone's ears, and they saw the fairy jade fall on the corner of the stone mill, split into two halves in an instant, and fell to the ground.
The original dense stream of light now dispersed into the sky, and the fairy jade became a crystal clear stone.
Everyone's eyes were filled with regret and regret, even the villagers watching from a distance shook their heads and sighed.
What a piece of fairy jade, now it has become a waste.
Only Yunze.
There was only determination and disgust in his eyes!
What kind of ancestral fairy jade? What kind of immortality?
This is clearly a reminder of death!
If the Immortal family really wanted to repay their kindness, why would they give them a jade pendant that was of no use? Apart from bringing harm to the Yun family, what other use would it have?
Yunze once heard his father say that although the Yun family was not rich and powerful, they lived a comfortable life, with a yard and land at home.
But after saving the immortal family, in order to avoid others, the ancestors had no choice but to sell their ancestral property and flee to other places. After many trips to this cold mountain village, they finally became mountain villagers.
It would be fine if there really was a so-called immortal fate, but this is just a piece of jade pendant that is of no use, and now it has ruined my whole family!
Repaying a favor? I think repaying a favor with an enemy is more or less the same!
No matter what the fairy jade is! If you hand it over, you will die, if you don’t hand it over, you will die!
Since death is the end of the road, why should we obey the wishes of the enemy who killed our father? Why should we leave this evil in the world?
"Don't you want immortal jade?"
Yunze had a sneer on his lips, looking at the stunned young man in brocade clothes in the distance, and kicked one of the broken jade pieces over: "The fairy jade is right here, come and pick it up!"
