Chapter 104 Why did you mess with it?
This dramatic scene caught the eyes of everyone, causing bursts of exclamations of surprise.
Du Junyan and others widened their eyes in surprise, staring at the white dove that landed on Du Anrao's shoulder, holding its head high and combing its feathers as if no one was around.
After a long while, he found his voice and asked with difficulty: "An An, you said this bird is your master's carrier pigeon, the master in your Taoist temple?"
"Yes, it's called Xiaobai, and it's a carrier pigeon raised by my master. When we were in the mountains, my master always used it to communicate with his old friends. I didn't expect it to be my turn now. But..."
Duan Rao turned his head to look at the white pigeon, which was obviously bigger than before it came down the mountain. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Xiaobai, what have you eaten recently when you went out with Master? Why did you gain so much weight?"
The white dove suddenly stopped stroking its feathers, then fluttered over Duanrao's head and started chattering.
Du Anrao seemed to have anticipated this. He protected his head skillfully, and ran away, begging for mercy loudly as he dodged.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, you are not fat at all, you are round, round!"
Unfortunately, the white dove was probably immune to this set of rhetoric. It nagged her twice before flying back to her shoulder, raising its head high to a 45-degree angle, looking as arrogant as a naughty child who should be taught a lesson.
Du Anrao covered his aching head and couldn't help but mutter, "It seems that not only is his body fat growing, but his temper is too. Oh, stop nagging, stop nagging, I was wrong, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong!"
There was another chaotic escape. When the white dove calmed down and landed on Duanrao's shoulder, all the hair accessories on her head had fallen off.
Fortunately, the chief stylist Du Hexuan is quite reliable. Considering that today is the day for the two of them to have their coming-of-age ceremony, he specially helped them braid their hair when designing their hairstyles.
Even without hair accessories, her hairstyle was not messy at all, otherwise Duanrao would have really had to celebrate her birthday with a messy hair.
Everyone in the Du family: "..." Why did you provoke it?
Looking again, the white dove was standing on Duanrao's shoulder, still looking arrogant and innocent.
The onlookers: “…” It was really weird. They actually saw emotions such as contempt and disgust in the small black eyes of a bird!
Seeing that the man and the bird had finally calmed down, Du Yuxi coughed lightly and asked what everyone present was concerned about.
"An An, what is this in your hand..."
Du Anrao lowered his head and glanced at the brocade bag in his hand, his eyebrows curved: "It should be the birthday gift from my master."
"Birthday present?" Du Yuxi leaned forward curiously. She wanted to see what birthday present Du Anrao, the legendary master, had given her, but she was worried that asking rashly would be too offensive.
Du Anrao didn't care. Seeing Du Yuxi's little thoughts, he poured out the contents of the brocade bag.
This fall startled everyone present.
"Is this... a copper coin?"
Lying in Duanrao's palm were five small round copper coins that were thinner than coins, tied together with a red rope and a small red knot on top. It looked very delicate and eye-catching.
Du Yuxi had just finished speaking when the white dove perched on Du Anrao's shoulder had already combed its messy feathers and lowered its head to rub against Du Anrao's neck.
Duanrao seemed to have anticipated something, his smile faded slightly, and he reached out to touch the white dove's little head.
The next second, the white dove flapped its wings and followed the path it came from, swaying and flying out of the gate.
Duanrao watched it leave reluctantly, and only turned his attention back to the birthday present in his hand when the white dove flew out of the courtyard.
"This is the Five Emperors' Coins."
"Five Emperors' Coins?"
Duanrao nodded and picked up the small string of copper coins.
"The so-called Five Emperors' Coins are a magical instrument made from copper coins cast during the five different periods of the ancient emperors. They have the effect of exorcising evil spirits and attracting wealth and fortune."
"As we all know, there is a saying that the emperors in ancient times were the true dragon emperors who were appointed by heaven. Copper coins, as a testimony to their various measures during their reign, are naturally stained with their energy. The more wise and famous the monarch is, the stronger the power he can give to the copper coins."
Du Anrao carefully examined the five copper coins and raised the corners of his lips slightly.
"The set my master gave me should be the Great Five Emperors' Coins. They are all copper coins minted by famous wise monarchs from different dynasties. The effect is super doubled. Carrying it with you will definitely keep away evil spirits and treacherous people."
Duanrao was stunned when he finished speaking.
[Could it be that Master had predicted what would happen to my second cousin in advance and gave me this birthday present? ]
Jiang Wentao and his son were both shocked, and their gazes towards the string of Five Emperors' Coins became heated.
Regardless of the master's intention in giving her this birthday gift, there is no doubt that this thing is useful to Jiang Younian now.
Duanrao originally wanted to save people, and now with this thing he felt more confident.
"I can try to help with my second cousin's problem, but I am not very knowledgeable and can't guarantee that I can solve his problem."
"It's okay, it's okay. We really have no other options right now. We can only try everything to see if we can give him a glimmer of hope. If you can really help Younian, you will be the benefactor of our entire family. If it really doesn't work out, we will definitely not blame you."
Du Anrao was relieved for the time being, and handed over the Five Emperors' Coins in his hand, which were not even warm yet: "This thing can bring good luck and avoid disaster. You can take it back and let your second cousin take care of it for a while. If there is really something shameful going on, this thing can at least suppress it. As for the rest, I will talk to you after I meet my second cousin."
Jiang Wentao and his son were overjoyed and they wished they could grow wings and fly back to City B with the Five Emperors' Coins in their hands.
Father Du saw that everyone had almost finished talking, so he stepped forward and made the final decision, "In that case, I'll contact Dean Qiao in a while and ask him to make arrangements in advance. You also have to ask clearly whether Younian's current condition is suitable for transfer to another hospital, and if he really needs to be transferred, how you can cooperate. If Younian's condition is okay, let him transfer over, so that if something really happens, everyone can take care of him. But if it really can't be done, we can only let An An go."
Duanrao had no objection to this and accepted the proposal.
Because of Jiang Younian's incident, the Du family members lost interest in continuing to celebrate the birthday. However, there were many guests coming and going today, and even though they were in a heavy mood as the hosts, they did not want to leave them alone, which would be too rude.
Just at this moment, Du's mother, who had taken people upstairs because of Ruan Xiuru's misconduct, finally came down from upstairs with a few familiar relatives and sisters.
As soon as he walked downstairs, he saw his brother and nephew. His eyes lit up: "Brother, Changbin, you are here. Where are sister-in-law and Anian? Why didn't they come with you?"
After saying that, he seemed to have discovered something and frowned: "What were you talking about just now? Why do you look so serious?"
