"Ding, please save the Son of Destiny." Song Jinqiao inexplicably transmigrated, and the system tasked her with saving the Son of Destiny. What the hell? Save the Son of Destiny?
Song...
"Little female, you're seriously injured. Why don't you go and rest? What are you doing here?"
Song Jinqiao slowly closed the door. After making sure it was securely closed, he turned to look at the old wizard and said with a smile, "I want to ask you something."
"Oh?" The old wizard raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, but still let Song Jinqiao sit on the stool beside him first.
"What's wrong? Do you have something to ask me?"
Song Jinqiao spoke slowly and methodically, "I want to ask about Pandora's Box. If we get Pandora's Box, do you know what we should do next?"
So that's what happened.
The old wizard said slowly, "I really don't know what to do, but we still haven't found Pandora's Box. Let's find it first. Only when we truly see the hope inside, I will probably know what to do next."
"Is there anything else you want to ask?" The old witch picked up the herbs on the table and continued to study them.
The tribe's veterinarian died of plague two years ago. Fortunately, the old witch doctor also knew some medical skills. In the past few years, the old witch doctor has been treating all the injuries, big and small, of the orcs in the tribe.
"These herbs are for your use. If you use them, you should be able to recover to your original state." He was more concerned about Song Jinqiao's health. After all, he was seriously injured when he was found before.
Song Jinqiao paused and said calmly, "What if I have Pandora's Box?"
"Bang!"
The stone bowl in the old wizard's hand fell onto the table with a loud noise, but he didn't have time to care about those things now. He stared at her with burning eyes and breathed rapidly.
"You really have Pandora's Box?!"
Song Jinqiao opened his palm, and a box appeared out of thin air in his hand. He handed the box over and said, "This is Pandora's Box. As for what's inside...you should open it and see for yourself."
Seeing Pandora's Box really appear in front of him, the old wizard couldn't believe it. He reached for the box with trembling hands and didn't notice the strange tone in Song Jinqiao's voice for a moment.
He put his right hand on the lid of the box and couldn't wait to open it. When he saw what was inside, he was stunned.
There were two things in the magic box, one was an orange-red crystal that looked very beautiful, and the other was a gray-purple stone that looked dull.
"Are these two things the things that represent hope?" he asked.
Although it was not quite the same as the Pandora's box he had imagined, it was still acceptable. However, Song Jinqiao's next words surprised her again.
Song Jinqiao replied, "No, to be precise, there was only the gray-purple stone in Pandora's Box originally. The other thing was something I found near Pandora's Box."
Old Siwu: “?”
The old wizard almost thought he had heard it wrong.
This gray, dusty stone is all they have hoped for?
Song Jinqiao said helplessly: "I know you may be very surprised, but this is the truth."
For a moment, the old wizard didn't know what to say. He looked at the magic box in his hand and was silent for a while: "You can put this thing in here first. I want to take a look at it first."
"Oh, by the way, don't tell the orcs in the tribe about this for now. And little female, can you help call the tribe leader over?"
Song Jinqiao nodded and stood up: "Okay, I'll go find the clan leader now."
She understood the old witch's intention.
If the people in the tribe knew about this, they would definitely be devastated. After all, their hope was just such an inconspicuous stone that could be seen everywhere.
She walked out of the old witch's ice house, and not long after, she saw Ming Jiu and the clan leader walking together and talking about something.
Seeing her, Ming Jiu was stunned for a moment: "Why did you come out? Are you feeling better?"
Song Jinqiao nodded and smiled, "I'm much better now."
She looked at the clan leader and said, "Clan leader, the old witch wants you to come over and talk to her about something."
The patriarch nodded and walked towards the old witch's ice house.
Ming Jiu did not follow and watched the patriarch's back as he left. Huai Xiang was looking for Song Jinqiao at that time, so the three of them returned to Song Jinqiao's ice house.
"It's so cold outside. You're only wearing so little. Be careful not to get frozen inside." Huai Xiang muttered to himself as he wrapped Song Jinqiao in a fur coat.
Song Jinqiao smiled and said, "Fortunately, I'm really fine now."
She talked to Huai Xiang, and half a day passed like this.
The next morning, an orc from the cattle tribe came to find Song Jinqiao and said that the old witch was looking for her.
Song Jinqiao thought it was because of Pandora's Box, so he didn't delay any longer and hurried to the old wizard's ice house.
Inside the ice house, the old witch and the patriarch sat opposite each other, and Pandora's Box was placed in the center of the table.
Seeing Song Jinqiao walk into the ice house, the old witch waved to her anxiously and said, "Come, come, little female, come here quickly."
Seeing this Song Jinqiao, Song Jinqiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Is this... a solution to the problem?
She walked over, sat on the stool over there, and listened to what the old witch said.
The old witch said, "Little female, according to the ancient inscriptions, the place where Pandora's Box is kept should be in a place full of magma. If we put these two things in the magma and refine them, we should be able to get what we ultimately want."
Hearing this, Song Jinqiao's mouth twitched.
So, she fought so hard to get out of there, and now she has to go back.
It's really despairing!
After the old witch finished speaking, his expression gradually became serious: "Little female, do you know where that place is? If possible, you, Hongshan, and the clan leader can go there together to refine these two things."
Song Jinqiao nodded, having no problem with the old witch's suggestion: "I'm well now, this matter is urgent, we'll leave in a while."
When Song Jinqiao was leaving, the old witch asked Song Jinqiao to call Hong Shan over and prepared to tell Hong Shan about the matter in detail.
As for why they didn't look for Mingjiu, the old witch and the clan leader also had many considerations.
A tribe cannot be without a leader. When the patriarch passes away, his successor becomes the leader of the entire tribe.
Moreover, this matter is very risky and there is a high possibility that we will never be able to return. The tribe cannot afford to lose the chief and two successors of the chief at once. This will be a major blow to the entire tribe.
Besides, Mingjiu has a partner, but Hongshan doesn’t, so it’s obvious who will go.
After hearing what had happened, Hongshan had no complaints about the decision of the old witch and the clan leader.
As the successor to the patriarch, his responsibility is to protect the entire tribe, which is what he should do.
