Chapter 9: Jade Cutting Knife

Silently reliving the things in his mind, Zhong Yuan still had a feeling of dreaming. Why did so many good things come to him? However, in the blink of an eye, Zhongyuan felt relieved again. All of this was because he had psychic power in his body, otherwise how could he have discovered the abnormality of that big tree? In fact, if it weren't for his psychic powers, Zhong Yuan was certain that he might never have come here for the rest of his life.

Comforting himself well, Zhong Yuan put the Buddhist bead on his left wrist and shook it vigorously a few times to ensure that the bead would not accidentally fall off his hand. Zhong Yuan nodded in satisfaction, feeling that his mental energy was absorbing several times faster than before, and his mood was good.

With this string of Buddhist beads, how much trouble will I have to save myself? I'm not afraid that I won't be able to bring good things with me. Just like now, Zhong Yuan is already considering packing up the things here. Thinking of this, Zhong Yuan immediately took action and put away all the bamboo slips in the bedroom. After putting the things in that string of Buddhist beads, they all became stationary. Zhong Yuan is not worried that they might accidentally touch and damage each other.

There weren't many things in the bedroom, except for a few bamboo slips, which Zhong Yuan couldn't stand. However, even so, Zhong Yuan still searched the entire bedroom with his psychic power before giving up.

After tidying up the things in the bedroom, Zhong Yuan went to the next target, the place where the books were placed. Zhong Yuan stretched out his psychic power and looked at the bamboo slips placed on the shelf. Then he put these bamboo rolls and silk books in piles into the Buddhist beads. The position of these things inside the beads was similar to outside. Zhong Yuan thought that these things could be placed on one bookshelf after another. He thought that the previous owner should have classified them. Zhong Yuan did not want them to be piled up randomly. It took him more than an hour to carefully handle the things in the cave. Looking at the empty bookshelves in the entire cave, Zhong Yuan was satisfied and came out. Breathe, I was in a state of tension just now, afraid of accidentally moving things too quickly and causing wind or something to damage them. As usual, Zhong Yuan swept the entire cave again before retreating, and there was another cave waiting for him to tidy up.

There wasn't much in this last cave either. Zhongyuan just put away the jade blocks and carving knives on the table. Zhongyuan definitely wouldn't let go of the jade blocks that had already been carved on the shelf. After putting all the jade blocks into the Buddha beads, Zhongyuan found them on the shelf again. In addition to these jade blocks, there were also many miscellaneous items on the shelf. Zhongyuan casually flipped them over and put them back. After years of change, Zhongyuan's vision had become higher and he was about to walk to the box with jade in the corner of the wall. At that time, something on the shelf caught Zhongyuan's attention. It was a small knife that was more than 30 centimeters long, and the handle took up about 10 centimeters. The handle of the knife was a murky white, with no visible color. Zhong Yuan reached out and picked up the knife to take a look. The beautiful patterns on the knife were like mountains, water, clouds, and mist, Zhongyuan is certain that these patterns were not painted later, but must have been crafted. Moreover, the entire knife is as thin as a cicada's wing, as if it would shatter with a light touch. With a gentle force in Zhongyuan's hand, the knife bends and returns to its original shape. Zhongyuan cannot currently tell what material the handle is made of, but can only see that the handle is engraved with strange anti slip patterns, giving the entire handle a moist feeling.

What surprised Zhongyuan the most was that the knife had been left here for an unknown amount of time, but there was no rust at all. Looking at the beautiful small knife and the jade in the box, Zhongyuan was lost in thought and reached out to take a fist sized jade from the box. Zhongyuan placed the jade on the table, picked up the knife in his hand, and gestured towards it. He actually wanted to use this knife to cut the jade?

Zhong Yuan gestured a few times, chose a location, and placed the blade on the jade to start using force. It was incredible that the entire knife actually slowly cut towards the jade.

Even Zhong Yuan, who had just received the Buddha bead, was ecstatic. He was just thinking that this cave seemed to be opened to deal with these jade, and that the knife placed here should be related to these jade. So he tried it casually, but he didn't expect that using this knife to cut jade was no different from cutting radish. Zhong Yuan didn't feel much resistance, and the jade was cut in half. Feeling interested, Zhong Yuan cut both halves of the jade on the table into pieces. Then he couldn't put down the small knife and put it into the Buddha bead. When he had time in the future, he could find someone to make a scabbard for this knife and carry it with him. Hmm, of course, with the sharpness of this knife, The material for making this scabbard needs to be carefully studied and refined.

After collecting a box of jade stones from the corner of the wall into the Buddhist beads, Zhongyuan finally left the cave satisfied and casually collected the beads from the tent and backpack. Zhongyuan walked out of the cave and floated up into the sky, searching everywhere. Zhongyuan didn't want to miss anything good. Just after flying a few hundred meters, he found that his psychic power had hit an invisible barrier. It must be the cover that the monk had made before. Zhongyuan flew around along this barrier and indeed, several kilometers around the valley were covered by an invisible cover. He had just seen the monk use prayer beads to make this cover in his mind. Zhongyuan arrived. It's not surprising, I just didn't expect this cover to still work after so many years. However, if it weren't for this, these treasures wouldn't be my turn to pick them up.

After circling around, Zhong Yuan didn't find anything worth collecting except for the medicinal herbs he didn't know. He then turned to the exit and realized that all the things in the valley that should have been collected had already been collected by Zhong Yuan. Zhong Yuan planned to see if the jade talisman he saw in his mind was really useful. There were many finished jade talismans in Zhong Yuan's Buddhist beads, and he found many jade talismans hanging in the same way as the cultivator in his mind. If it was useful, it was fine. This place could be used as his future destination. If it couldn't be used, he didn't know if he could still come in, but it didn't matter if he couldn't. The valuable things in the valley are all in my hands.

With this amazing harvest, Zhongyuan's mood was great. Flying in mid air, he felt extremely carefree. He came to the big tree and flew out without stopping. With a bumpy heart, Zhongyuan took a jade talisman from the Buddha bead and slowly walked towards the big tree. As he was about to touch the big tree, Zhongyuan clearly saw a bright white light flashing through the jade talisman in his hand. Then, Zhongyuan's hand passed through the big tree without any obstruction. Zhongyuan took two steps and walked into the big tree again. Looking at it, Zhongyuan grabbed the jade talisman and slowly leaned towards the big tree. The transparent light curtain and the green corridor in front of him made Zhong Yuan very happy. It's completely a lie to say that Zhong Yuan no longer cares about this valley in his heart, There is no place safer and more secluded than this valley, and most importantly, Zhongyuan loves the scenery here very much. It would be even better to treat this place as a home in the mountains and forests in the future.

After experimenting with the jade talisman in his hand, Zhongyuan now wished he could bring his family over to see the paradise he had discovered. Walking out of the big tree, Zhongyuan looked at the phone not far away, and with a movement of his heart, the phone flew into his hand. Without his previous concerns, Zhongyuan could wait outside until Mr. Shui sent someone to send the information. What Zhongyuan was most looking forward to now were those materials, and everything else was secondary.

I took out the tent and backpack from the Buddha bead. It's better to bring these two things with me. I fixed the tent and looked up at the sun that was almost overhead. I hadn't even eaten breakfast yet, no wonder my stomach was already growling with hunger. I went to see which unlucky guy had entered my stomach today
