Chapter 782: Lost Item

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Everyone could not be bothered to discuss how Ah Yu had discovered this thing and surrounded her.

Chi Ding cursed on the surface, but used his True Qi to dry his belt extravagantly.

This was the bad thing about being a subordinate. In a short journey, there was basically nothing that belonged to them in the luggage they carried.

For example, an extra belt.

“Your Highness, this item is unknown,” King Xiaoyao’s subordinate said. “Let me open it.”

King Xiaoyao looked at Ah Yu and saw her nod. He said, “Open it.”

The person picked up the box and quickly walked about a hundred feet away. Only then did he want to open the box with his sword under everyone’s gaze.

Unfortunately, his wish was not fulfilled.

It looked like a simple closed box, but the gap was especially tight.

“What’s going on?” City Lord Wan was puzzled. “Is it broken?”

Wang Wulang recalled some martial arts books and said, “It might be some special mechanism. For example, if it’s opened in the wrong way, there might be danger or it might be destroyed.”

These words reminded everyone.

That’s right. Even the underground palace had so many mechanisms, and they had been operating steadily for many years. This meant that the person who built the mechanisms liked to build mechanisms and was good at it.

Although the box was soaked in water, why would it mean that there was no mechanism?

Ah Yu thought of some toys Grandpa had made for her and said, “Could it be something like a Luban lock? Such a small box has an exquisite shape. Perhaps the things inside are indeed precious. This means that the owner cherishes it very much and does not want it to be damaged.”

The reason why she said this was naturally not because she was very certain, but because Meatball had scanned it remotely and confirmed that there was no danger.

Meatball was very willing to leave her guessing on the small details so that Ah Yu would have a sense of participation in her growth. However, the premise must be to ensure her safety.

Now, it could already perfectly use this system and become a qualified guardian (self-appointed).

In the end, it was Wang Wulang and All Yu who squatted by the box to discuss. They found the method together and opened the box.

Ah Yu was in charge of thinking while Wang Wulang was in charge of the practice, and the siblings completed it with extreme tacit understanding.

With a click, the box opened. Everyone couldn’t help but peer over curiously.

“It’s just a jade pendant?” The space in the box was indeed very small. There was a piece of cloth inside and a jade pendant was firmly stuck in it.

The color of the jade pendant was not bad. It looked transparent and was suffused with a faint luster.

However, most of the people present had seen the world. When they saw that it was only a jade pendant, they were naturally disappointed.

If Shi Zhou was here, he would definitely be surprised because this jade pendant was none other than Princess Ruan Ruan’s former princess token!

However, now, All Yu picked up the jade pendant and looked at it seriously. She felt that the patterns on it were a little familiar.

“Fifth Brother, look at this pattern. I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere before.”

Wang Wulang leaned closer and indeed felt that it was familiar.

The others also came over to take a look.

King Xiaoyao was about to say something when Tang Yuan suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone looked at her. “What’s wrong?”

Tang Yuan thought of something and shook her head. “Nothing. It’s just that 1 think a bug bit me just now.”

Everyone turned back to look at the jade pendant.

Ah Yu felt someone tugging at her. She turned around and saw that it was Tang Yuan.

Tang Yuan pulled Ah Yu to the side. When Chi Gou saw this, he stood calmly in the middle, blocking the others’ vision and preventing them from hearing anything.

Chi Tu also stood over tacitly.

Everyone was still discussing the jade pendant and had no time to care.

“Big Sister Tang Yuan, what’s wrong?”

Tang Yuan leaned closer to Ah Yu and said in a low voice, “Little Master, there’s half a pattern on that jade pendant. It’s very similar to the birthmark behind your ear.”

It was more than similar. It was exactly the same!

It felt like half of Ah Yu’s birthmark had been imprinted on it.

Ah Yu vaguely knew what her birthmark looked like. Meatbail had once drawn it for her..
