I can't afford to offend her, but I don't want to die. I came to Miss Ruan just to ask Miss Ruan to ask the young master to save my life."
As Chu Tingna spoke, she stood up and knelt down with a thud.
Ruan Qiao quickly reached out and touched her, then asked, "Do you know what she was digging deep in your house looking for?"
Chu Tingna shook her head blankly. "I don't know what she's looking for. I asked her, but she wouldn't tell me."
Ruan Qiao was surprised.
Chu Shiyu then asked, "Do you, or your elders, have anything special left behind?"
Chu Tingna nodded repeatedly and said, "If there is one, it's only a string of wind chimes."
Wind chime?
This is nothing special.
Chu Tingna said: "When I was a child, I often saw my father staring at the wind chimes hanging on the front door of our house in a daze.
I asked my father why he kept staring at the wind chimes, and he said he missed grandpa.
I asked my father why he looked at the wind chimes when he missed grandpa?
Dad said that when grandpa missed his great-grandfather, he would also stare at the wind chimes.
Later, my father told me that my great-grandfather and grandfather both spent their lives staring at the wind chimes in front of the door.
Chu Tingna's lineage was expelled from the Chu family because her great-grandfather committed a serious mistake.
Chu Tingna didn't dare to talk nonsense and continued, "I never understood what was so special about that string of wind chimes.
Later, when I grew up, I realized that the string of wind chimes must have had a special meaning to my great-grandfather.
It’s just that grandpa, dad and I don’t know about it.
My father said that when my great-grandfather was expelled from the Chu family and drifted to Lancheng, he often stared at the wind chimes and drank one jar after another.
He later died of alcoholism.
Before he died, he told my grandfather and father not to take down the wind chimes and to keep them hanging on the door.
This is probably why my grandfather and father were also staring at the wind chimes."
Ruan Qiao said thoughtfully, "Is there anything special about the wind chime?"
Chu Tingna shook her head in confusion. She turned around, opened her bag, and took out a string of very old wind chimes.
The wind chime is made of brass and has not rusted, but after a hundred years or so, it has shown signs of aging.
"It's this string of wind chimes." Chu Tingna handed the wind chimes to Ruan Qiao.
Ruan Qiao took it and looked at it carefully in her hand.
Didn't find anything different.
Chu Tingna said, "I really can't think of anything else in my house that would be worth a big shot like Chu Linglong coming to my house to look for.
Only this wind chime is somewhat different."
Chu Shiyu's gaze also fell on the string of wind chimes.
Ruan Qiao was just about to hand the wind chime to Chu Shiyu and ask him to take a look, but unexpectedly, the Shennong Fire in her body suddenly became active.
Ruan Qiao was startled and quickly calmed Shennonghuo. Then she lowered her head and stroked one of the beads hanging on the wind chime.
The beads broke when her hand touched them.
The crisp cracking sound was so loud that everyone present heard it.
Everyone's eyes fell on the bead.
I saw that there was a ring-shaped object embedded in the brass bead that was broken into two halves, which looked like a ring.
"this……"
Chu Tingna widened her eyes in disbelief.
At the same time, the voice of the first generation sounded somewhat excitedly in Ruan Qiao's mind.
"Girl, this ring is from Shennong's Herb Garden!"
