Chapter 242: Decisive Battle - Fate (6)

"Brother Xu is really happy!" Wan Shijun said with great joy.

"I wonder where that jade pendant is now?" asked Xu Chen.

"Oh, right there!" Wan Shijun stretched out his hand and pointed to the tribute case in front of the row of tablets, where the copper tripod was placed, and replied.

The young men looked at the tribute case that they had investigated many times in confusion, and then looked at each other, but still found nothing, so they had to move their eyes back to Wan Shijun.

Wan Shijun smiled, stood up, walked to the tribute case, and stretched out his hand to pluck the several burning incense sticks in the copper tripod. Then he took out a small brocade box from his arms, opened it and took out a fine incense that was only three inches long in the brocade box, carefully lit it and inserted it into the copper tripod, and finally bowed respectfully a few times.

Only then did he stand up, stretched out his hand and groped on the surface of the tribute case in front of the copper tripod, and soon found a small copper ring from the small crack, and then pulled it hard, and after a soft sound, a dark grid appeared on the tribute case, and a wooden box was placed in the dark grid.

"Brother Xu, hurry!" Wan Shijun's hand was still grasping the copper ring, and he urged Xu Chen with an anxious expression.

When Xu Chen heard this, he didn't hesitate and stepped forward quickly.

"Big brother!" Lu Hao couldn't help it, and opened his mouth to call.

Today's events are inevitably too weird, and their relationship with Wan Shijun is not good, and Wan Shijun's mysterious words before are more like gimmicks that attract people.

"Big brother, why don't you let me try it first!" said the third Wang Ce.

"No, I believe Brother Wan, if he wants to deal with us, he won't use this childlike method!" Xu Chen said.

"Big brother, not necessarily! maybe he did the opposite?" said Old Zhou Zhoukang.

Zhou Kang's meaning was that Wan Shijun knew that Xu Chen was also a smart person, so those complicated techniques were not as effective as this seemingly childish method.

Xu Chen understood his brothers' worries, but he had other things in his heart, so he naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity.

"Don't worry!"

Xu Chen calmed everyone, then walked to Wan Shijun's side and asked, "What should I do?"

Wan Shijun's heart was also relieved, if Xu Chen didn't agree this time, then his preparations this time would be in vain.

"Brother Xu, please look! The jade pendant is here, just need Brother Xu to take it out!" Wan Shijun said.

After Xu Chen walked in, he found that in the wooden box, there was a jade pendant with the same appearance as the imitation that Wan Shijun took out just now. The jade pendant was placed like that, and there was no extra decoration in the wooden box except for the jade pendant.

Xu Chen stretched out his hand and grabbed the jade pendant, feeling apprehensive. Wan Shijun also looked at him with anticipation on his face, Xu Chen was moved by this solemn atmosphere, took a deep breath, put a slight force on his hand, and then ......

Then, the ordinary jade pendant was taken out by Xu Chen lightly!

Xu Chen blinked his eyes and looked at Wan Shijun beside him with a hint of surprise and doubt.

"This ...... Is it okay?" asked Xu Chen uncertainly.

Wan Shijun's eyes widened, his mouth opened, and he didn't say a word for a long time, just looked at Xu Chen blankly.

"Brother Wan, Brother Wan!" Xu Chen held the jade pendant in his right hand and kept dangling it in front of Wan Shijun's eyes.

Wan Shijun closed his mouth with difficulty and swallowed heavily, only then did he come back to his senses, and his heart was suddenly overwhelmed by ecstasy.

"Hahahaha! it's done! it's done! it's finally done!" Wan Shijun smiled a little, and Xu Chen's heart trembled for no reason.

"Brother Wan, this is ......" Xu Chen calmly looked at Wan Shijun in ecstasy and smiled.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm rude!" Wan Shijun laughed.

Wan Shijun bowed slightly, even when he apologized, the hand holding the small copper ring still did not let go.

Lu Hao, who was behind Xu Chen, immediately glanced at Wang Ce beside him, Wang Ce nodded slightly, so he stepped forward, snatched the jade pendant from the eldest brother's hand, stood between Wan Shijun and Xu Chen, and laughed at Wan Shijun: "Is this jade pendant so magical? I don't think it's anything! It's just an ordinary jade pendant and a camphor wood box! No one has taken it out for four hundred years? I don't believe it! Let me try it!"

So he saw Wang Ce quickly put the jade pendant back into the wooden box.

"Third child, don't ......" Xu Chen's words didn't have time to finish.

"You!" Wan Shijun just wanted to let go of the copper ring and rush up, but saw that Wang Ce had already put the jade pendant back, so he hurriedly retracted his forward leaning body, and the finger that had not yet detached from the copper ring was inserted again, You Jue was not very safe, Wan Shijun's other hand also slammed over, and after grasping it firmly, he shouted and scolded: "What the hell are you doing!"

Outside the ancestral hall for some reason, there didn't seem to be any guards at this moment, and Wan Shijun's angry and depraved shouting and scolding did not attract a guard or family. I don't know if Wan Shijun is really honest, or because in this ancestral hall, as the head of the Wan family, he has no fear.

"Do you fucking know how difficult it is to open this dark grid once!" Wan Shijun obviously doesn't know how to scold people, and he only uses those few words, but the high-pitched tone can still accurately reflect his angry mood at this time.

"Is it? How difficult can it be? Isn't it just a tattered camphor box! I don't believe it!" Wang Ce used his body to block Xu Chen behind, and the hand behind his back made a gesture towards the eldest brother.

After Xu Chen saw it, he smiled bitterly in his heart a few times, at this time, not only Wan Shijun, but Xu Chen saw that the things that he had finally obtained were gone, and he was also anxious in his heart!

was about to put aside the third child and stepped forward, but he didn't know that Wan Shijun actually said in a grand manner: "If you have the ability, you can take it, if you can really take it out, why don't I give you this jade pendant?"

"Haha! That's what you said!" Wang Ce laughed, looking like he had succeeded in his treacherous scheme.

As soon as Xu Chen heard Wan Shijun's words, his heart moved, and he stopped.

Xu Chen didn't feel the slightest difficulty when he took the jade pendant just now, and he inevitably had some doubts about Wan Shijun's previous statement in his heart, but now that the third child has provoked Wan Shijun's words, let him try it, it's a big deal that he will try again when the time comes, in short, he can't delay any effort.

He didn't know that Wan Shijun regretted it as soon as he said it, and then looked at the fine incense that was burning rapidly in the copper tripod, and his heart was even more anxious, but the words had been spoken, and Wan Shijun was not good at breaking his word and getting fat, so he could only urge: "If you want to try, hurry up!"

Wang Ce smiled, did not delay, stretched out his hand, grabbed the jade pendant, used a slight force, and then ......

Then, the jade pendant didn't move at all!

Wang Ce's face changed slightly, and then he increased the strength in his hand, but the jade pendant still didn't move!

"Huh!" Wang Ce suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"One hand is not enough, you can use two together!" Wan Shijun sneered.

Wang Ce ignored Wan Shijun's ridicule, calmly put his hands into the wooden box, held half of the jade pendant in one hand, exhaled, and actually used the force method used for physical training.

"Phew!" Wang Ce slammed his strength, but then staggered a step, his body lost his balance for a while, and he fell to his side.

"Third child!" Xu Chen hurriedly stepped forward to hold him up.

"Big brother, this thing is weird!" The surprise on Wang Ce's face increased a lot, and he looked at Xu Chen with wide eyes and said.

"I can see it!" Xu Chen said angrily.

"Such an evil sect, then I'll try it!" Lao Zhou Kang walked up with fists, and did not listen to Wan Shijun's reply, as soon as he came up, he used his hands, also shouted, and stumbled a step, but with Wang Ce's previous experience, Zhou Kang quickly took a step forward on one leg and kept the balance of his body.

"Good boy! this thing is really weird!" said to himself, holding his smooth chin.

"Second brother, why don't you try it too?" it doesn't make sense, only the eldest brother can do it!" Zhou Kang called.

"Okay!" Lu Hao immediately stepped forward and tried it again.

……

"Stone, you have the most strength here!Earn some qi!" After Lu Hao failed, he glared at Shi Lei and said.

"Don't worry! It's on me!" Xiao Shi was not slow to react, and his face showed the kind of expression that would appear every time he acted.

"Oops! this thing is really heavy!" the stone tried once, but it didn't work, and then he increased his strength, and his arm was bruised, but unfortunately, it still didn't work......

"Second brother, I'm sorry! I didn't take it out......" Xiaoshi tried many times, and every time he succeeded, he had to lower his head and "confess" in front of Lu Hao.

Looking at the contrived performances of several people, Wan Shijun's face became darker and darker, and finally he couldn't help it, and broke out: "Enough!"

"Oh, that incense is about to burn out!" said the third Wang Ce as if he had suddenly found out.

At this point, the teenagers naturally realized the extraordinaryness of this jade pendant, and they also believed a lot in the mysterious things that Wan Shijun just said, so they naturally realized that this fine incense is the key to making it possible for the family to prepare for twenty years.

Wan Shijun's behavior today is very strange, how can the teenagers let him achieve what he wants lightly before they can't clarify the other party's purpose? So, this is the above scene.

Wan Shijun was startled, turned his head to look, but saw that the fine incense had indeed gradually burned to the end, so he hurriedly said: "Brother Xu, why don't you take it again!"

Xu Chen looked at the brothers who were covering themselves tightly in front of him, and his heart was warm, but he had to stretch out his hand to push away a few people, walked out, turned back to a few people and said with a wry smile: "Okay! Don't make trouble! This thing is useful to me!"

"Huh?" the four brothers were visibly stunned.

Xu Chen didn't explain, he hurriedly turned around, and saw that the fine incense in the copper tripod had now burned to the bottom, and the faint firelight appeared from time to time, but Wan Shijun's face showed a very painful expression, and his hands were holding the small copper ring, holding his breath and concentrating, as if he was using all his strength, and he didn't even have the ability to speak.

Immediately, there was no need for Wan Shijun to urge again, Xu Chen walked forward quickly, stretched out his hand and quickly walked towards the jade pendant. Perhaps influenced by the experience of the Fang Cai brothers, after Xu Chen grabbed the jade pendant, he also pulled it hard, and his body fell backwards due to excessive force, and was supported by several brothers on the side.

It's just that Xu Chen's hand successfully took out the jade pendant again.

Seeing this, Wan Shijun's breath that he had been holding was finally relieved, and his hands holding on to the copper ring were also released.

Next, the teenagers saw what surprised them the most in their lives, and even creeped out for a long time afterward. Although in the later years of life, the teenagers will encounter a scene countless times grander than this scene, but the teenagers still can't forget this scene...... After all, this is their first time, the first time their worldview has been changed!

I saw that after Wan Shijun's hands were released, the wooden board that had been lifted closed again with great speed, but such a violent impact did not cause the slightest sound. Then, when the fine incense in the copper tripod was completely burned out, when the last wisp of green smoke dissipated, the small copper ring on the wooden board was strangely and quickly integrated into the wooden board, and then disappeared. In the end, even the small gap on the desk disappeared without a trace, and an intact desk appeared in front of the teenagers, where there was still a trace of the dark grid!

Except for Xu Chen, who was not surprised because he had seen a more magical scene than this before, the expressions of the other four people at this moment were exactly the same as the expressions of Fang Cai Wan Shijun when he saw Xu Chen really take out the jade pendant.

"I'm dazzled?" Lu Hao asked, then rubbing his eyes.

"Am I right?" asked Wang Ce, then rubbing his eyes.

"Really?" Zhou Kang asked, then rubbing his eyes.

"Oh, brother, did I not sleep well yesterday?" asked Shi Lei, and then rubbed his eyes.

After the four of them rubbed it, they found that there was still no trace on the desk, so they immediately glanced at each other, and then rushed towards the desk, and the four pairs of big hands kept rubbing on the desk.

"Why is it gone?" asked the second child after touching it several times and making sure that he couldn't find any traces.

"Impossible!" the third child also observed several times.

"It's weird! Where did the copper ring run just now?" Zhou Kang looked left and right.

Among the four people, Xiaoshi did the most thoroughly, stretched out his hand and kept knocking on the case, but he was listening to the sound, and after knocking left and right to no avail, he went to the bottom of the case, and knocked the whole case again from below, and finally there was really no way, so he had to poke his head out with a dead heart, and wondered: "Why is it gone?"

Ignoring the brothers who were working tirelessly on the scientific field, Xu Chen handed over the jade pendant in his hand to Wan Shijun's hand, although there was a fiery desire in the depths of his eyes.

Wan Shijun was unconscious, took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully, this jade pendant has not been available for hundreds of years, and Wan Shijun naturally has not seen it, so it is inevitable that he is a little curious.

Xu Chen looked at Wan Shijun for a long time, and then said with determination: "Brother Wan's matter, I have done my best!"

"Haha! Thank you, thank you Brother Xu for your help, in the future, no, the entire family will thank Brother Xu for his great kindness!" Wan Shijun said with a smile.

Xu Chen smiled the same, and then spoke again: "Actually, there is a reluctant request below, and I need Brother Wan's help, I don't know ......."

Wan Shijun was in a happy mood, so he said boldly: "Brother Xu, but it doesn't hurt to say it! As long as my family can do it, I won't make any excuses! Otherwise, how can I repay Brother Xu for such a great favor?"

Xu Chen smiled humbly, and then said straight to the point: "Don't hide it from Brother Wan, I want to borrow something from Brother Wan temporarily!"

"Oh, what's the matter? Brother Xu said yes, as long as we have it, we will never refuse!" Wan Shijun said with a full mouth.

"It's not a secret, the thing I want to borrow is this jade pendant in Brother Wan's hand! I want to be genuine!" Xu Chen saw that Wan Shijun was talking so much, how could he not make good use of it. After explaining the purpose, Xu Chen looked at Wan Shijun, whose smile was gradually disappearing, so he continued: "Brother Wan, don't worry, this thing will only be borrowed for a month at most! It will definitely be returned after a month!"

"This ......" Wan Shijun hesitated, if it was something else, it would be fine! But this inheritance jade pendant that only comes out once in four hundred years, how dare Wan Shijun agree lightly, but Fang Cai himself said it too much.

The tangle on Wan Shijun's face looked at Xu Chen, but now he doesn't know what chips he has in his hand that can impress Wan Shijun, so it's impossible to spend money to buy it, right?

What's more, such a miraculous thing would make a fool exchange it for money! Besides, there is no shortage of money in ten thousand families!

Xu Chen waited anxiously.

Wan Shijun thought about it for a long time, then sighed heavily, and said, "Alas! Brother Xu's favor is really not helpful!"

"I also know that this matter is a bit difficult for strong people, and I hope that Brother Wan will be successful!" Xu Chen clasped his fists with both hands and saluted respectfully at Wan Shijun.

"Alas, so it is...... This jade pendant was originally taken out by Brother Xu, so it can be seen that it is indeed related to Brother Xu, so let's borrow it from Brother Xu!" Wan Shijun made a difficult decision.

"Thank you, Brother Wan!" Xu Chen was already overjoyed at this moment!

"But ......," Wan Shijun looked at Xu Chen, who was overjoyed, but he wanted to speak and stopped.

Xu Chen is also a smart person, so he immediately reacted and asked, "Brother Wan has any requirements, but it doesn't hurt to say it!"

Wan Shijun's family is so atmospheric, Xu Chen feels that he can't be stingy.

"Hehe, this is not a request, but there is an old man in the family who retired from the Hongzhou shipyard an old boatwright, once in the Ganshui cruise found a few very interesting boats, after coming back to remember, and instructed in the next must find a way to help him get a few back, but also to have a good time. Brother Xu must also know, old man, when he is old, he is like a child, and he has a lot of fun, how can we who are juniors not want to find a way to be satisfied?" Wan Shijun said with a smile.

"What Brother Wan said are those turtle boats that are under the line?" Xu Chen said with a playful smile.

"Turtle boats?...... I guess it's called that!" Wan Shijun ignored the love in Xu Chen's smile and said calmly.

"Hehe!" Xu Chen smiled, and then replied directly: "Yes! I'll have two turtle boats sent tomorrow!"

"Haha! Brother Xu is really happy!" Wan Shijun said with a smile.

"Big brother, it's not possible! How can this ghost ship give away people?" After Lu Hao finished exploring the case, he walked towards Xu Chen, who knew that he heard such a few words just after he walked in, and he was immediately shocked.

"That's right, how can this ghost ship give away?"

The third and fourth children who followed were also opposed.

"I have made up my mind! I don't need to say it!" Xu Chen said in a deep voice.

……

Then, Xu Chen took over the coveted jade pendant from Wan Shijun's hand.

At the gate of the ancestral hall of the Wanjia family, Wan Shijun looked at Xu Chen and the others who were drifting away, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a treacherous appearance......
