Chapter 579: Higanbana Jade Pendant
The shelves are densely packed with all kinds of books, some of which are ancient books on martial arts techniques, alchemy, formations, etc.
Moreover, most of these skills are of heaven level, with only one saint level skill mixed in.
Su Chenyin and Jun Yijue merely glanced at this saint-level spiritual skill and then turned their eyes away as if nothing had happened.
They didn't take it seriously at all. After all, they had plenty of space, and their level was higher than the Saint level.
Su Chenyin's slender fingers gently slid across the ancient books, and suddenly, she accidentally touched a book in the corner.
But what was unexpected was that the edge of the book was like an extremely sharp blade and instantly cut her delicate fingers.
In an instant, a drop of bright red blood oozed out from the wound and dripped straight down, landing right on this ancient book.
"Hiss..." Su Chenyin hissed softly, and the sudden pain made her frown.
When Jun Yijue saw this, his heart suddenly tightened, and a trace of worry flashed across his eyes as deep as the sea.
He quickly stepped forward and asked with concern: "Yinyin, are you okay?"
Su Chenyin shook her head and was about to say something, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the shocking scene in front of her.
Suddenly, without any warning, a deeply hidden dark layer appeared next to the neatly arranged bookshelf!
Su Chenyin was shocked and subconsciously took a small step back.
Jun Yijue also frowned slightly, and there was a hint of vigilance that was hard to conceal in his eyes.
At this moment, both of them stared at the dark layer that suddenly appeared, not knowing what was inside.
Through the faint light, you can vaguely see a blue box quietly placed in that dark layer.
The box emitted a soft blue light, which was like a dream, and it seemed that there was a mysterious force attracting Su Chenyin.
Su Chenyin took a closer look out of curiosity, and her heart was suddenly shocked, and she couldn't help but gasp.
Because she found that this blue box was exactly the same as the box that contained the cloud jade pendant that her grandfather had given her!
The striking similarity made her feel both surprised and puzzled.
Su Chenyin took a deep breath, trying to calm the waves in her heart, then reached out and picked up the box.
Then, steadying the box with her free hand, she began to slowly, little by little, lift the lid.
When the lid was fully opened, she found another jade pendant inside.
This jade pendant is oval in shape, and is also engraved with the pattern of red spider lily. The petals are red and lifelike, as if swaying gently in the breeze.
The jade pendant has a gradient color and its texture is warm and delicate, as soft as mutton-fat jade and warm to the touch.
What’s even more amazing is that there is a faint halo flowing on the surface of the jade pendant, giving people a mysterious feeling.
Upon closer inspection, one can feel that this red spider lily jade pendant seems to be hiding countless secrets, waiting for the right person to uncover the truth behind it. Red spider lily jade pendant Su Chenyin stared at the red spider lily jade pendant intently.
Suddenly, without any warning, the figure of the woman in red appeared in her mind again.
In the picture, she saw that the red spider lily jade pendant was placed here by the woman in red.
Then, the scene suddenly changed, and the woman in red was seen holding another cloud jade pendant, standing in front of a wall.
Without hesitation, she inserted the cloud jade pendant in her hand into a groove on the wall.
As the jade pendant was inserted, a door that was originally tightly closed slowly opened, and a pitch-black passage suddenly appeared.
The woman in red walked into the passage without any hesitation and walked forward along the passage.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the woman in red finally reached the end of the passage, and what appeared before her was a secret room.
The secret room is not big, but it is filled with the smell of old books.
There were several bookshelves in the middle, piled with thick ancient books, and nothing else.
The woman in red approached one of the bookshelves and searched among the books on the shelf.
After a moment, her eyes rested on a blue book covered in dust, and she reached out and gently pulled it.
Just then, something unexpected happened.
As she pulled, the wall on the left slowly opened, revealing a tightly closed stone door!
There was a strangely shaped groove on the door.
If you look closely, you will find that the shape of this groove is very similar to that of the red spider lily jade pendant.
Seeing this, the woman in red walked towards the stone gate and took out the red spider lily jade pendant from her arms.
She placed the jade pendant into the groove, and heard a slight sound of the mechanism turning...
But the picture suddenly froze at this moment and came to an abrupt end.
Su Chenyin stood in place, his eyes slightly open, his eyes seemed a little dazed and absent-minded, as if he was still immersed in the scene just now.
Jun Yijue, who was standing by, noticed Su Chenyin's abnormality, and a trace of worry arose in his heart.
So, he reached out his hand, gently held Su Chenyin's weak shoulders, and asked softly with concern:
"Yinyin, are you okay? Is there something wrong with this jade pendant?"
Hearing Jun Yijue's words, Su Chenyin came back to her senses as if awakened from a dream.
She shook her head slightly, indicating that she was fine, but there was still a hint of confusion in the depths of her eyes.
She opened her red lips slightly and said to Jun Yijue beside her:
"Ajue, just now, some memories suddenly emerged in my mind, and these memories are inextricably linked to this jade pendant."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and stroked the red spider lily jade pendant in her hand.
"In those memories, there is a woman in a bright red dress..."
Su Chenyin's voice trembled slightly, as if those scenes were still vivid in her mind.
Then, she told Jun Yijue everything that had just occurred in her memory.
Jun Yijue listened to Su Chenyin's story attentively. His eyes, as deep as a pool of water, were always staring at the person in front of him, revealing endless concern.
After Su Chenyin finished speaking, Jun Yijue stretched out a hand, gently stroked her hair, and said comfortingly:
"Yinyin, don't worry about this. If you really can't remember, don't force yourself. Just let nature take its course."
Hearing Jun Yijue's considerate words, Su Chenyin nodded slightly and responded:
"Yes, I understand. Thank you for your concern, Ajue."
After saying that, she smiled and put the red spider lily jade pendant into the space.
Afterwards, Su Chenyin and Jun Yijue continued to select treasures to see if there were any other important things.
At the same time, people around were busy with their own things, and the whole scene was very lively.
In this hustle and bustle, time slipped away silently like a fleeting white horse.
Before I knew it, the pitch-black night had been replaced by morning light.
