Lin Hu squatted down and touched the iron chain, but his hand was instantly pulled back because of the cold.
It must be 40 or 50 degrees Celsius now, but this iron chain is still so cold.
Lin Hu looked up at the dragon, a hint of difficulty in his voice: "It's a bit difficult."
"What should we do then?" Long asked Lin Hu.
"Wait a moment, I'll think of something." Lin Hu said as he walked out of the cave, preparing to ask about point 1097.
"You're not not coming back, are you?" Long called out to Lin Hu from behind, but the other only waved and left without returning.
Lin Hu turned two corners and stopped only after 1097 reminded him that he was no longer within the dragon's mind-reading range.
"What's the story behind Duan Linzhou's family heirloom that you just mentioned?" Lin Hu asked curiously.
He had spent so much time with Duan Linzhou that he had never noticed whether the other person had any jade on him.
[1097: That jade was given to him by his grandfather and passed down through several generations. It is said to have been worn by a former emperor.]
"With such an impressive background, do you think Duan Linzhou would lend it to me if I asked him to?" Lin Hu asked.
Although he and Duan Linzhou are now in a romantic relationship, they still need to keep things separate in important matters.
This family heirloom is a big deal.
[1097: No, his family heirloom can only be used once. If you use it here, he can't use it there.]
The moment 1097 returned, he received news of what had happened in the past few days.
She learned about the new rules the survival system had issued in the past few days, as well as the fact that her host and the male protagonist were having an affair.
Although the atmosphere between the two was a bit strange, it was a system and didn't really understand human emotions, so it didn't take it seriously.
"If this family heirloom is only for one use, how can it be passed down through generations?" Lin Hu complained, but he still had to think of a solution.
[1097: By his generation, it shouldn't have needed to be passed down anymore.]
Lin Hu: Why does this sound like a double entendre?
[1097: Actually, there is a way.]
Lin Hu: "Why didn't you say so earlier if you had a solution? You've made me listen to your nonsense."
[1097: Find Duan Linzhou and bring over the family heirloom, then make a copy.]
Lin Hu was shocked. Could this family heirloom that could save the dragon be replicated?
Is it a bug?
"It's that simple? I don't have to do anything?"
Lin Hu knew 1097's nature; he wouldn't let him get something for nothing.
1097: Hmm... Host is quick-witted.
[1097: 200,000 Level 3 Crystal Cores need to be paid quickly... Hey, host, where are you going?]
Seeing Lin Hu turn to walk out of the cave, 1097 quickly called out.
"I'm not saving it. Let it wait for someone destined to be its match." Lin Hu said seriously as he walked straight out.
[1097: Saving him will get you treasure; it's definitely worth it.]
Lin Hu stopped in his tracks immediately upon hearing what 1097 said.
"I rescued it because it was chained up with those big iron chains and I felt sorry for it." Lin Hu opened his friend list and contacted Duan Linzhou.
[1097: Yes, yes, it's not for any treasure.]
When Duan Linzhou received the message from Lin Hu, he was standing in front of a cave, where a group of unconscious people were tied up on the ground.
They were all there to steal the treasure, but he stopped them.
[Lin Hu: Brother Duan, I heard you have a family heirloom. Can I borrow it for a look? I'll return it to you right away.]
Duan Linzhou didn't think too deeply about how Lin Hu knew about his family heirloom, assuming it was something Wen Mofei was talking about with him now.
Duan Linzhou didn't think this thing was anything special; it couldn't be eaten or used as a crystal core, so he simply transferred it from his backpack to the other party.
When Lin Hu received the items, he couldn't believe that the other party had just given them to him like that.
It looked like a jade pendant. Lin Hu clicked to receive it, and the jade pendant appeared in his backpack.
I took it out of my backpack and held it up to the nightlight to examine it. It was a thin, round piece of Hetian white jade ring, and it felt like it would break if I squeezed it too hard.
"How do I copy it?" Lin Hu asked, holding the jade ring up to the system interface of 1097.
[1097: Put the jade back in the backpack.]
Lin Hu did as instructed, and a message suddenly popped up on the 1097 system interface.
[Consume 200,000 Level 3 Crystal Cores to replicate this item [Hetian White Jade Ring]?]
[1097: Host confirmation is all that's needed.]
Lin Hu reached out and clicked to confirm, and the Hetian white jade ring*1 in his backpack instantly turned into Hetian white jade ring*2.
"Which one is real?" Lin Hu couldn't tell the difference between the two when they were put together.
[1097: The first one you took out is it.]
Lin Hu quickly returned Duan Linzhou's to him, then, as if remembering something, asked 1097, "Is there any way to block its mind-reading ability?"
Lin Hu was going to make up a story later. Since the other party could read minds, if he didn't have any props to resist, he would be exposed before he even opened his mouth.
[1097: Host, you know what I mean...]
Lin Hu rolled his eyes: "How much?"
[1097: 50,000 Level 3 Crystal Cores - a steal!]
Lin Hu said with a benevolent look, "Tell me, how many crystal cores do I need to create a physical entity for you?"
[1097: Host, you've already spent 200,000. If it weren't for this mind-reading resistance ability, wouldn't all 200,000 have been wasted?]
Very good, that's right.
Lin Hu once again became a customer of the 1097th "sales" system.
Lin Hu had everything ready and stepped into the cave again.
"I've thought of a solution, but it's a bit troublesome." Lin Hu looked at Long with a troubled expression.
The dragon originally intended to use its mind-reading ability, but found it couldn't see through the thoughts in the person in front of it, so it could only ask, "What's the trouble?"
Lin Hu took the jade out of his pocket, held it in his hand, and sighed, "This jade is my family's treasure. My father gave it to me before he died."
Lin Hu looked up at the dragon, then lowered his head and continued, "I noticed that one part of the chain that's binding you is the same shape as the jade in my hand."
Lin Hu pointed to the iron chain that had tripped him earlier. At the end of the chain was a square piece of iron with a depression on it, which was clearly shaped like a jade ring.
"Then please save me!" Long was a little excited. He had been trapped here for a long time, without sun or light, and had spent a long time in darkness, unable to even distinguish between day and night.
“I want to save you too, but this is the only thing my father left me.” Lin Hu looked troubled.
"Save me first, and then you can take it, right?" The dragon was starting to get a little irritable.
"That's what I originally thought too, but look how thin my jade is. If I put it in, I definitely won't be able to take it out."
Upon hearing Lin Hu's words, Long also glanced at the groove in the jade and the iron block.
"If you save me, I'll compensate you with many more." This was the only solution Long Wei wanted to offer.
“No, it’s not the same,” Lin Hu said. Seeing that Long was about to lose his temper, Lin Hu changed the subject and continued, “How about this, you help me fulfill a wish, and I won’t make you pay for my jade.”
