Chapter 10: The Su Family's Past



The shape of this fixed star hub resembles a vintage watch!

But it is more of a compass than a watch.

Lin Tongxi had seen a compass in history textbooks, which was very large, but this one was like a small and exquisite version of it.

In terms of size, it is only slightly larger than modern watches, so at first I subconsciously thought of it as a watch.

"Young Master Tongxi, this is a treasure I got by chance. It is called Dingxingshu. It has three functions: one is to identify the direction and time, two is to shoot hidden weapons, and three is to release mysterious fragrance." Su Wuya handed this multifunctional small device to Lin Tongxi.

Upon closer inspection, Dingxingshu still holds hidden secrets!

There are two pointers on the dial, one red and one blue. The red one always points in one direction, while the blue one moves slowly clockwise.

Under the pointer is the background of the Tai Chi diagram, with the Yin and Yang fish entangled with each other. There are two layers of different characters around the Yin and Yang fish. The inner layer is the Eight Trigrams: Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui, and the outer layer is the twelve hours: Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Wei, Shen, You, Xu, and Hai.

Category: Treasures

Background: Made by Dongfang Shi, a skilled craftsman in the palace of the Red Dynasty, it later spread to the people due to the invasion of the capital by the Saidi. It has multiple functions.

Function: A multifunctional treasure that can identify direction (the red needle always points to the geographic South Pole) and time (the blue needle rotates clockwise to point to the corresponding time). It can be embedded with hidden weapons and then fired (improved by Su Wuya, it can switch between ordinary silver needles, poison needles, and anesthetic needles, and each mode can store a total of 10 needles). It can also be embedded with disturbing incense (two sachets in total, each can release the fragrance twice).

Introduction: "Your Majesty, this object is only an inch in size in the palm of your hand, but it integrates the best of ancient and modern times. It can identify directions, measure time, and hide hidden objects." - Dongfang Shi

I have to say that any one of the functions of this thing can be regarded as an independent invention.

You have to know that this was in ancient times. It was very difficult to combine multiple functions on such a small object, and it was a great test of the craftsman's skills.

"My friend, this thing has many functions. Let me teach you how to use it first."

Su Wuya explained its function and taught him how to launch hidden weapons and release the disturbing incense.

The function of launching hidden weapons even takes into account the problem of accidental discharge and is equipped with a safety device.

In addition, the silver needles and sachets need to be replaced in time after use. Just ask Su Ruoxue to replenish them.

From this perspective, Su Ruoxue is indispensable in fully leveraging the role of Dingxingshu.

Fortunately, the two of them successfully brought Su Ruoxue into the team, otherwise it would have caused too much trouble.

"My friend, this is your weapon. I will return it to you." Su Wuya returned the pistol to himself.

Fortunately, Su Wuya was not what he had thought before. He almost thought that he had swallowed his own artifact.

Eject the magazine. There are only 6 rounds left. Use them sparingly. We don't have the technology to manufacture bullets yet.

"Okay, here is some money left. I'll give some to you." Su Wuya distributed the silver to the three people in turn.

There is no need to worry about currency issues. I have to say that the gift package for novices distributed by Su Wuya is thoughtful!

"After packing up your belongings, you can leave..." Su Wuya turned around and looked at the medical map on the house, trying to divert his attention.

"Daddy...Xue'er has something else to say to you..." Su Ruoxue sobbed, tears streaming down her fair face, making it hard for anyone who saw her not to feel pity for her.

Chen Yunxuan tactfully pulled Lin Tongxi out, "Miss Ruoxue, Brother Tongxi and I will wait for you outside."

When you go outside, you will feel the fresh air, the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers. The environment here is good and suitable for seclusion.

"Brother Tongxi, what are your plans for the future?" Chen Yunxuan spoke first.

Lin Tongxi held his chin in his hand and came to a conclusion, "Well... let's go back to Qingshi Village first. This is the only way to go for now."

"Going to Qingshi Village? That's good. The villagers there are simple and honest, not as bad as Master said. Before, I only dealt with fellow disciples, but now dealing with more people outside the academy can be a good experience." Chen Yunxuan agreed to Lin Tongxi's proposal.

Is it simple and honest? Come to think of it, it is indeed so.

After all, not every village dares to accept injured outsiders.

For the two of them, Qingshi Village saved their lives.

Let’s go back to Qingshi Village first and see what contribution we can make to the village.

In the chaotic world, I just left like that, and I don’t know when I will be able to return to Qingshi Village again.

What's more, the value of the Novice Village has not been fully explored.

You have to calm down before you move on, and it wouldn't be too much to even learn from the Sword God of Shilipo and level up in the initial area.

In one word, stable!

After the two chatted for a while, they finally waited for Su Wuya to send his daughter Su Ruoxue out.

At the time of parting, Su Ruoxue threw herself into Su Wuya's arms and sobbed.

Su Wuya stroked Su Ruoxue's head and said soothing words, "Xue'er...be good, you can see your father again in the future, don't worry."

Half a minute passed before Su Ruoxue let go of Su Wuya and finally stopped crying.

Su Wuya took out a handkerchief and wanted to wipe her tears for the last time with his own hands, but she took it directly and wiped away the tears herself.

"Daddy, I'm leaving." Su Ruoxue bowed and turned around. "Excuse me, young men. Let's go." Su Ruoxue's voice was still tearful, but her eyes were firm.

Looking at the three people leaving, Su Wuya couldn't help but stretch out his right hand. He hoped very much that his only daughter would turn around and take another look at him, her old father.
