Chapter 126 Meeting Across Time and Space
The box was covered with black velvet and contained a shell necklace.
The necklace is made of ordinary hemp rope, and the shell is a thumb-sized white conch, decorated with a purple gem on each side.
It doesn't look like anything special, and the gem doesn't look like any precious gem. It looks very similar to ordinary amethyst on the market.
But such a simple necklace has been passed down from generation to generation. The gems are very shiny. I wonder if every generation has touched it.
In a trance, a picture suddenly flashed before Lin Jin's eyes.
The faces of countless women appeared before his eyes. They came from various dynasties. Everyone opened the box and touched the necklace, and in the end, they all handed it to their descendants with a smile.
"This is a family heirloom. I must give it to my daughter in the future."
The scene disappeared and Lin Jin solemnly picked up the necklace.
The edges of the uncut purple gemstone are not sharp, and it feels like touching a smooth piece of jade.
The white conch feels cool to the touch, and you can faintly smell the scent of sea salt.
Lin Jin stared at the tail of the conch and suddenly found a vortex in the middle of the purple gem, and the same thing happened to the other purple gem.
Two whirlpools appeared from nothing and soon became the same size. They rotated inside the gem and rose to the surface of the gem.
As soon as the hands are wet, gems emerge from the vortex.
The two small whirlpools merged into a large whirlpool, covering the thumb-sized conch and Lin Jin's hands.
Lin Jin looked at this scene in shock and wanted to let go, but the vortex did not give her any chance to withdraw.
She could feel the water passing through her fingers, and she could also feel something entering the vortex inside her body. The faint fragrance became more and more intense, and in the blink of an eye it enveloped the entire room.
I don’t know how long it took, maybe a few minutes, maybe dozens of minutes, the vortex finally disappeared from my hand.
There was a weight on her hand. The white conch, which was only the size of a thumb just now, became as big as Lin Jin's palm after the whirlpool disappeared.
The white surface is covered with golden fine sand, and countless small pink starfish are stuck to the surface.
A golden word "Lin" appeared from the inside of the conch. At the same time, a golden light flashed on the inside of Lin Jin's right wrist, and an identical word "Lin" flashed across her skin.
The word "Lin" on the conch felt the call, the font turned transparent, left the conch and went straight into the left wrist.
The smell of sea salt disappeared, but the sound continued.
Lin Jin turned the conch over and over to examine it. She glanced at the conch's mouth and felt that the sound she heard seemed to come from there.
She put the conch to her ear and heard the sound of the conch gradually become clearer.
“Woo——”
“Woo——”
“Woo——”
"Fire, the blue-eyed tiger is running towards you."
In a mysterious deep forest, a tall, wheat-skinned woman, barefoot and wearing a fur skirt, shouted anxiously into the woods.
In front of her sight was a green tiger with three eyes on its head.
The tiger was hit by an arrow in the buttocks and rushed towards the woods, roaring. Judging from the direction it was heading, it was obviously trying to escape from the encirclement.
The woman who was speaking was unwilling to let go of her prey. After waiting for a long time without receiving any response from the woods, she gritted her teeth, drew her bow and pointed it at the tiger.
In the blink of an eye, three wooden arrows were shot out.
The tip of the wooden arrow spontaneously ignited without fire, and the end that was sharpened by a stone knife, with flames, instantly entered the body of the blue-eyed tiger.
The blue-eyed tiger roared, bared its fangs, gave up trying to escape, and turned to pounce on the nearest woman in animal skins.
The targeted woman in animal skins was not in a hurry. She took out a stone axe weighing dozens of kilograms from her back and rushed towards the blue-eyed tiger with an excited look on her face.
When the man and the tiger were about to collide, the sound of conch shells suddenly rang out in the woods.
The conch shell sounded hummingly, and in an instant, two fireballs fell from the sky above the Blue-Eyed Tiger.
The fireballs, with an unstoppable momentum, surrounded the Blue-Eyed Tiger in a circle.
The woman holding the stone axe stopped and quickly moved away from the encirclement without hesitation. The other women in animal skins also moved away with their weapons.
The fireball did not ignite the hay when it landed, but instead burned the blue-eyed tiger to death on the spot with its own temperature.
The huge body of the blue-eyed tiger fell to the ground with a loud bang. Its blue fur remained intact, but all the flesh and blood inside was roasted.
The flames died down, and a tall, strong, wheat-skinned woman walked out from the depths of the woods.
The woman was holding a white conch in her hand and carrying a wild boar that was still bleeding, and she spoke to everyone with a smile.
“I almost missed it.”
The animal-skin woman who first held the bow rolled her eyes at her and said, "I really thought you were addicted to hunting."
"No way, the Blue-Eyed Tiger is the focus, but this wild boar just happened to run in front of me, how could I let it go?"
Lin Huo put the wild boar down, glanced at the blue-eyed tiger whose three eyes were still open, and shouted, "It's a good harvest today. We have enough food for the next few days."
Everyone laughed when they talked about this.
Yes, I have everything. I can have a good meal when I go back today.
A wild boar and a blue-eyed tiger were carried back to the tribe by everyone.
The hunting place is two hours’ walk from the tribe, but because of the big harvest today, everyone ran almost as fast as they could.
The group of people moved very quickly. They ran a long distance in a blink of an eye and returned to the tribe in less than two hours.
The tribe was built by the water and is undoubtedly the strongest tribe today.
The tribe has abundant food. Not only does it have a complete range of hunting tools, but it also has a budding planting industry.
The older women are responsible for planting in the tribe, the younger women are responsible for hunting, and the younger children are responsible for picking wild fruits around the tribal camp.
The tribe's population is not large, but it is very harmonious from top to bottom.
The return of the hunting team caused everyone to cheer.
Everyone was happy to find food and cheered for the warriors' safe return.
The naked children found some wild flowers from somewhere and made wreaths for all the warriors to wear on their heads.
Lin Huo declined the enthusiasm of the tribesmen, put down the food, washed the blood off his body, and walked towards the wooden house in the center of the tribe.
The door of the wooden house was not closed, and one could hear the voices of people inside as long as one passed by from the outside.
Lin Huo waited patiently at the door and only entered the room when there was no sound.
The light in the room was a little dim, and it took her a while to adjust before she could see clearly inside the room.
A middle-aged woman who looked 50% like her, with black hair but full of energy, was sitting cross-legged on the ground.
She had her back to the forest fire, her clear eyes fixed on the sandalwood box opposite her.
Lin Huo quietly walked over and sat down cross-legged, "Amu, the master is gone?"
The woman called Amu withdrew her gaze from the sandalwood box and said, "Well, let's go."
Her voice was neither happy nor sad, and it was hard to tell what was going on.
But Lin Huo, her daughter, was the first to notice something was wrong.
Lin Huo's heart skipped a beat, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Am, what's going on? Is a war going to start?"
