"My little benefactor, why don't you try opening it by dripping your blood?"
The old woman hesitated for a moment before saying, "Back then, we tried to open it to determine its origin, but everyone in the city tried and no one could do it. Now, we're just waiting for you."
"What this old woman said is true."
At this moment, Heaven and Earth spoke up, “Some families, in order to ensure that their heirlooms truly fall into the hands of their younger generations, have set up bloodline restrictions on them, which can only be activated by pure bloodline power.”
"kindness."
Upon hearing this, Jun Feijue said to Ji Fanya, "Little Cliff, you give it a try."
"good."
Upon hearing Jun Feijue speak, Ji Fanya did not hesitate, nodded, and bit his finger.
"Click..."
There was no surprising reaction. The moment Ji Fanya's blood dripped, the box unlocked automatically, and the lid popped open a small gap.
"Truly a little benefactor."
Upon hearing this, the old woman immediately said with delight, "When we learned that Dongxinglou used to be the property of our benefactor's father, we guessed that it must belong to you."
"kindness."
Looking at the thing in his hand, Ji Fanya's eyes flickered. What was it that his father had never told him?
"I'll look into it later. Let's eat first."
Seeing that Ji Fanya was about to open the box, Di Moyu reached out, took the item, and put it directly into Jun Feijue's Void Jade.
Wealth should not be flaunted. Everyone can see how special this thing is. If we open it now, and it turns out to be an extraordinary treasure, even if we have done the people of this city a favor, it may not be as good as greed.
Ji Fanya and Jun Feijue both lacked social experience and were simple-minded, so Di Moyu had no choice but to take on the responsibility of protecting them.
"Okay, let's eat."
Jun Feijue didn't understand what Di Moyu meant, but when he heard about eating, he subconsciously nodded along enthusiastically.
"Alright, in that case, please come to the city lord's mansion for a meal."
The old woman didn't say much, and very politely led the group to the city lord's mansion.
The city lord's chef was excellent, and knowing that their benefactor had arrived, the city's residents had brought many good things and local specialties to supplement the meal, making it an exceptionally sumptuous affair.
Jun Feijue and his party were extremely satisfied with the meal.
After finishing their meal, they led a few people to a side room to rest. The people from the city lord's mansion were very tactful and did not disturb them.
At this moment, Ji Fanya opened the box in front of Jun Feijue and the others.
When the long, rectangular box was opened, a hairpin came into view.
The hairpin is inlaid with a purple magnolia carved from jade at the top, and the hairpin body is a flat round wooden handle that is wide at the top and pointed at the bottom. The workmanship is very exquisite and ingenious, and it is clearly a woman's item.
"Inside, there is also a ring and a letter."
There was an envelope folded under the hairpin, and next to it was a small dark ring.
Ji Fanya reached out and picked it up, without avoiding the crowd, and opened it to read it.
However, as he watched, Ji Fanya, who had been looking puzzled, suddenly became excited, his eyes reddened, and his hands trembled slightly.
"Xiaoya, what's wrong?"
Seeing this, Jin Yue quickly asked with concern, "Isn't this yours?"
"No, it is indeed mine, or more precisely, it belongs to my mother."
Ji Fanya wiped away his tears and calmed himself down before saying, "I have been living with my father since I was a child. I thought I had no other relatives. I never expected that my father was from the imperial dynasty. He was the eldest son of a middle-class family in Lingnan City of the Western Zhou Dynasty."
