Chapter 283: Chapter 283

283 Special Pendant

The little lamb ran very quickly. As soon as the children reached the wild fruit field, the little lamb had already carried Ah Yu back.

The Spirit Treasure Rat also squatted on Little Ah Yu’s shoulder and lowered its head, looking extremely tired.

Little Ah Yu was indeed holding something in her hand. It was something that the Spirit Treasure Rat had jumped up and thrown to her on the way.

Tang Yuan and the others leaned forward to see what it was.

“Ah Yu, what’s that in your hand? Did the big rat find it?”

How much effort did this take?

It actually found something.

Little Ah Yu jumped off the little lamb’s back and raised the thing in her hand for everyone to see clearly.

However, her arms and legs were not long enough, and even when she lifted it up with all her might, she could not raise it very high.

“Put it on that rock and we’ll look at it together,” Hu Xiaotong suggested.

Little Ah Yu placed the thing on the rock.

Everyone went up to take a look, but they could not tell what it was.

“This is a joke, right?”

“It feels like it was carved by a carpenter.”

“Bullsh*t, this was clearly made by a blacksmith!”

“What is this? A big snake? A big bug?”

“It looks like a big bug, but it’s not clear.”

“There’s too much embroidery on it. It’s blocking the appearance.”

Everyone looked around and discussed for a long time, but they still could not figure it out.

Among this group of people, Hu Xiaotong was the oldest. He was already 14 years old this year and was a young man.

“Big Brother Tong, take a look.”

Hu Xiaotong looked at it for a while and shook his head. “I’ve never seen it before. Why don’t we show it to the village chief and the others? They should know.”

Children had limited knowledge, and adults knew more.

Little Ah Yu put away the thing and shouted into the field at the side, “Uncle Tu!”

Everyone was confused. What Uncle Tu?

An adult with a solemn expression suddenly appeared beside the originally empty wild fruit vine.

Was this Uncle Tu?

Hu Sanpang scratched his head. “I specially took a look just now. There’s no one around. Where did this person come from?”

A child said, “I saw him. He was squatting over there. I thought he was going to relieve himself.”

Chi Tu, who had found the hiding spot with great difficulty: “...”

It was getting harder and harder to work as a secret guard.

Little Ah Yu held the thing in her hand and handed it to Chi Tu. “Uncle Tu, take a look~”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Chi Tu took it in its hand. He was originally just taking a casual look, but his gaze quickly became sharp.

When he took a closer look, he felt his scalp tingle and turn cold.

This thing-

“Uncle Tu, what is this?” Little Ah Yu asked.

Chi Tu instantly came back to his senses and said, “Oh, it’s just an iron pendant.”

To be precise, it was actually bronze, but its surface was stained with some rust and looked like iron.

“Looks like it’s not worth much,” Hu Sanpang said casually.

When Little Ah Yu heard this, she threw the pendant into her pocket. “Then I’ll go back and give them to Grandma. I’ll ask her to get Uncle Blacksmith to play with it and make something.”

“Don’t!!” Chi Tu hurriedly shouted.

Little Ah Yu was puzzled. “What’s wrong?”

“Actually, this thing is still valuable. If it’s melted, it won’t be worth much,” Chi Tu said.

“How much can it be worth?” Hu Sanpang asked. “Is it worth this much?”

He raised a finger. “One tael of silver!”

In their understanding, one tael of silver was equivalent to one dan of food. It was very precious!

Chi Tu: “...More than that. It’s worth around a hundred taels.”

If this thing was really valued, it might not even be possible to buy it with 100,000 taels.

But there was no need to say so much. In any case, it was fine as long as the children could understand.

“Wow! Ah Yu, you’re rich!” The children were excited and surrounded Little Ah Yu, wanting to touch the Spirit Treasure Rat on her shoulder.

“Ah Yu, lend me your big rat. I’m not looking for such an expensive treasure. I’m just looking for my father’s private savings. I don’t know where he’s hiding it, but if I find it, he won’t dare to make a sound even if he loses it.”
