Chapter 144: I've never seen such a thick skin

"Okay, then I'll say it." Leng Qingqiu put the mussel shell fragment in the sunlight and said to everyone, "You see, in the sunlight, this fragment can reveal the image of the whole river mussel."

On the body of this mussel, there are circles and lines, and this is its age.

When it is born, its shell is gray, and every year it appears, a red stripe appears on the shell. Every 10 years, another circle of orange will appear. Centennial gold, millennium-old green, 10,000-year-old purple.

There are seven purple lines on this mussel shell, representing 70,000 years old, seven green lines representing 7,000 years old, and golden, orange, and red lines, representing the age of less than 100 years. I can only extrapolate from the purple and green lines that he lived for more than 77,000 years. ”

More than 77,000 years?

Zhao Lin was amazed, "Oh my God, with so many years of history, this fragment should be very valuable." ”

Leng Qingqiu said, "What is money?" Can money buy immortality? This kind of mussel is called colorful mussel, it is a mascot holy object, symbolizing the five blessings, with it, you can live a long life, wealth, well-being, good virtue, and a good death.

In fact, it not only has a beautiful meaning, but also can eliminate disasters and ward off evil spirits, eat its meat, beneficial to longevity, healing and healing. Grinding its shell into powder and swallowing it can keep it young forever and immortal. ”

When everyone heard such an explanation, they were shocked beyond words, including Leng Xiyue.

Because when he was in the small hotel, Leng Qingqiu didn't tell her that the colorful mussels symbolized the meaning of the five blessings, did he miss it?

Think about it carefully, no, Leng Qingqiu clearly told her that this kind of mussel is called a colorful pearl mussel, but now she actually omitted the word "pearl" and became a colorful mussel.

It can be seen that Leng Qingqiu actually said this on purpose, omitting the word "pearl", no one would know that this was a pearl mussel, and no one would know that there was a spirit pearl in her body.

And the so-called symbol of five blessings should also be made up by Leng Qingqiu, in order to divert people's attention and better protect the spirit bead hidden in her body.

After hearing about such a value, the old lady of the palace stepped forward excitedly, "The autumn water is traceless, you mean that this fragment of my mussel shell has the effect of immortality and eternal youth?" ”

The implication is that this priceless fragment of mussel shells is still her old lady's.

"Old Madam Gong, is this your mussel shell?" Leng Qingqiu asked with a straight face.

"Of course." Old Madam Gong smiled, "I personally brought it to you for identification, didn't I?" ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, "Come, give it back to me." ”

Leng Qingqiu didn't return it to the old lady of the palace, "Didn't you just say that this mussel shell fragment belonged to a country girl?" And you also said that even if it was given to you, you would not want it. ”

"Ouch, that's a joke, just kidding, don't take it seriously. How can a wild girl in the countryside have such a priceless treasure? To tell you the truth, this mussel shell fragment is an ancestral heirloom of the Gong family. ”

"Yes, yes, it's the ancestral heirloom of the Gong family." Zhao Lin nodded in agreement.

I've seen a thick-skinned one, but I've never seen one with such a thick skin! Everyone cast disgusted glances at the old lady and Zhao Lin.

Gong Xinyi stepped forward with a cold face, "Grandma, this mussel shell fragment is not yours, it is Leng Xiyue's, she just put it at my family doctor for testing, and she didn't say that she wanted to give it to you." ”

The old lady of the palace glared at Gong Xinyi fiercely, "You kid, what are you talking about, Leng Xiyue is an orphan, she has no parents, and she is poor, how can she have such a valuable baby?" ”
