Chapter 259: Something Worth Ten Thousand Taels of Gold

Two days later.

"Sister Lin!" Jiang Ning was slightly surprised when he saw Lin Qingyi, who was wearing a blue shirt outside the door.

Lin Qingyi smiled and said, "Why? Didn't you expect me to come see you so early in the morning?"

"I really didn't expect it." Jiang Ning smiled.

With his powerful five senses and hearing, he could tell that there was someone outside the door, but he couldn't tell who it was until Lin Qingyi spoke.

As for the mental force field, he did not dare to deploy it easily.

Mental strength is not unique to him.

Those who can step into the sixth level of martial arts have all reached the level of condensing mental power into reality, that is, they can barely control external objects in the air without leaving the body.

The next step in turning the virtual into the real is to expand the mental force field, using the mental force field as the sixth consciousness to observe the world and all things.

However, as long as it reaches the state of condensing the void into the solid, no matter what else, any mental force field that is not of a crushing level will be discovered by it.

The mental force field is covering you, which means you are spying.

This behavior is a blatant provocation.

If you rashly surround a top martial arts expert, no one will say "this is wrong" even if you are beaten to death.

So when he heard the knock on the door, Jiang Ning would not easily expand his mental force field and spread it away.

"Why, you won't invite me in?" Lin Qingyi smiled and continued, "It's so windy outside, do you want to freeze me to death?"

"Please!" Jiang Ning made way.

Lin Qingyi lifted her leg and stepped over the threshold. Her long skirt was blown by the cold wind, revealing half of her calf.

Jiang Ning glanced briefly and looked away.

I couldn't help but secretly smack my lips.

The temperature is high enough to freeze water, but Lin Qingyi can walk around in a long skirt that barely covers her calves. She is truly immune to cold and heat!
As for what Lin Qingyi said just now, Jiang Ning smiled in his heart and didn't care at all.

Are you kidding? It is ridiculous that Lin Qingyi, a quasi-grandmaster, could be frozen to death in a temperature of around zero degrees.

Although he didn't know how powerful the Grandmaster was.

But he knew how strong he was.

And now he is only at the sixth level of martial arts.

The quasi-grandmaster is at the peak of the fourth rank!

The further you go on the road of martial arts, the bigger the gap becomes.

You know, under normal circumstances, the lifespan of a master is at least two decades.

In this era where a sixty-year cycle is considered a long life, two sixty-year cycles means six generations living under one roof, and this is just the beginning.

Based on some random talks he read in books.

There was a master who lived for more than one hundred and fifty years.

This kind of lifespan has clearly broken the limits of the human body and reached a level beyond his knowledge in his previous life.

You know, in the previous life.

In this era of advanced productivity, biomedicine is also so advanced.

Don’t even mention living for two centuries!

Even a centenarian is extremely rare.

Theoretically, the maximum human life span is only two sixty years.

The world's longevity record in the previous life was just over two Jiazi, or one hundred and twenty-two years and one hundred and sixty-four days.

By comparing this, it can undoubtedly be seen that the so-called master already possesses qualities that transcend the ordinary.

The increase in lifespan is the most obvious manifestation of changes in life levels.

And Lin Qingyi is someone who is infinitely close to this kind of person.

The two walked on the shallow snow.

There was a "puff" and "puff" sound of the snow being crushed under my feet.

"Where are your brother and sister-in-law?" Lin Qingyi looked around and then spoke.

Jiang Ning said, "It just so happened that the snow stopped today, so they went to the market to buy some daily necessities. Now there's only me and my oldest nephew at home."

"Nephew!" Lin Qingyi murmured, then looked at Jiang Ning and smiled slightly: "How do you feel about being an uncle at your age?"

"I don't feel anything!" Jiang Ning spread his hands and shrugged: "I'm used to it!"

Then he asked, "Sister Lin, what about you?"

"Me what?" Lin Qingyi asked.

"Sister Lin looks so young, but she's already a mother. How do you feel about that?" Jiang Ning asked.

Hearing Jiang Ning's words, Lin Qingyi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Who told you that I'm a mother? I'm still a virgin!"

"Intact virgin?" Jiang Ning was stunned.

"What's wrong? Do you feel weird?" Lin Qingyi glanced sideways, her earlobes slightly flushed.

Talking about this topic, even with her current state of mind, her face felt slightly hot.

Hearing this, Jiang Ning hesitated and said, "Eighth Prince and Little Seventeen both call you cousin, which means that my sister is..."

"The Eighth Prince!" Lin Qingyi murmured.

Then she said calmly: "Princess, right!"

"Yes!" Jiang Ning nodded: "Logically speaking, Sister Lin is the princess of a certain prince, right?"

Lin Qingyi immediately smiled bitterly and said, "What princess? She's just a piece of merchandise!"

goods?

Jiang Ning was stunned.

Then Lin Qingyi laughed at herself and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore!"

The two were speechless.

Until I stepped into the East Courtyard.

"Do you know why I came to see you today?" Lin Qingyi suddenly asked.

"I don't know!" Jiang Ning shook his head.

Lin Qingyi turned her head to look at Jiang Ning. She had already adjusted her mentality and a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"You are really awesome, kid!"

"After meeting Princess Seventeen, she will keep asking to marry you and will wait for you to marry her in the capital."

Hearing this, Jiang Ning smiled helplessly.

"Xiao Shiqi is still a child now. He was just in a good mood at the moment. You can't take such words seriously."

A teasing smile appeared on Lin Qingyi's lips.

"You say that as if you're really big!"

Jiang Ning opened his mouth, then closed it again.

"What, what do you want to say?" Lin Qingyi glanced slightly.

"Nothing!" Jiang Ning shook his head calmly.

Then he pushed open the main hall in the east courtyard for receiving guests.

Although he seldom opened the main hall, there was no strange smell in the air.

Normally, my elder brother and sister-in-law would come to his place to clean when they had time.

After entering the main hall and waiting for Lin Qingyi to come in, Jiang Ning closed the door to prevent the cold wind from entering the room.

"Sister Lin, do you want to warm yourself by the fire or have a cup of hot tea?" Jiang Ning asked.

"I want both! Your house is by the lake, and it's a bit cold in the winter!" Lin Qingyi crossed his hands in front of his chest, highlighting his majestic silhouette.

Then she rubbed her left and right hands on one side of her shoulder.

With her hands pressing down the clothes, her arms looked exceptionally slender, not like a quasi-grandmaster at all.

At the same time, you can also see that her clothes are thin, no different from the clothes that ordinary women wear in spring and autumn.

It doesn't look like something you would wear in the cold winter months at all.

After a while.

Jiang Ning used a little trick to light the charcoal, and at the same time walked towards Lin Qingyi with a cup of hot tea.

Lin Qingyi sat next to the charcoal stove.

In the slightly dim room, the flickering charcoal fire illuminated her rosy face.

She took the hot tea handed to her by Jiang Ning and held the cup with both hands.

"It's so warm!" Lin Qingyi squinted her eyes, and her expression became inexplicably lazy, like a kitten warming itself by the fire in winter. "Sister Lin, are you afraid of the cold?" Jiang Ning sat aside, looking at Lin Qingyi with a posture that didn't seem fake.

"Yeah!" Lin Qingyi nodded slightly when she heard Jiang Ning's words: "I was born with a cold body. Even in the middle of summer, my body is still cold, not to mention winter!"

"If you don't believe me, touch it!"

As she spoke, Lin Qingyi suddenly stretched her left hand, which was grasping the wall of the cup, towards Jiang Ning, and it landed on the back of Jiang Ning's right hand.

"Let it cool down!" Lin Qingyi's face was calm.

"It's a bit cold!" Jiang Ning nodded, grabbed it twice with his backhand, and suddenly felt like he was holding a piece of ice.

At this moment, it seemed that the charcoal was burning too vigorously, and the dancing flames shone on Lin Qingyi's pretty face, dyeing her face red.

next moment.

Jiang Ning let go of her hand and said calmly, "Sister Lin, I think you have anemia."

"Anemia?" Lin Qingyi looked at Jiang Ning with eyes wide open.

Jiang Ning smiled awkwardly, touched his nose, and did not continue the topic.

Lin Qingyi took a sip of the hot tea, and she squinted her eyes slightly, enjoying the pleasure of having the coldness in her body driven away by the scalding hot tea.

Then, she opened her eyes and looked at Jiang Ning.

"Let's get back to the topic just now!"

"I came to see you today mainly because of Xiao Shiqi's request."

"Xiao Shiqi's request?" Jiang Ning was slightly surprised: "What request did Xiao Shiqi ask?"

Lin Qingyi took out a piece of white warm jade from her body, with a thin red string on it.

The red string is about forty to fifty centimeters long and is obviously a red string worn around the neck.

"This is the token of love that Xiao Shiqi asked me to give you!"

"She and Ji Minghao are going to travel around the world. After our last separation, she was embarrassed to come see you."

"So you entrusted this token of love to me and asked me to pass it on to you!"

"She also wants me to tell you that if you take this token of love to the capital to find her in a year, she will marry you!"

Seeing this, Jiang Ning was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Why do I always feel like Xiao Shiqi is just playing house?"

"How can she play like that? Decide on a lifelong relationship after meeting me once? Isn't she worried that I have bad character? My personality? My values ​​don't match hers?"

Lin Qingyi, who was standing by, smiled when she heard these words.

"I also think Xiao Shiqi is a bit dramatic."

"One year later, Xiao Shiqi won't even be eighteen!"

"But this is a token of her love, you have to accept it!"

"And this thing is different from others. It is the warm jade from the earth's core. Wearing it on your chest all year round can warm up your blood, calm your mind, and ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters!"

"The most important thing is that this item can slowly increase your spiritual power. It is truly worth a fortune!"

Worth ten thousand gold!
Hearing these four words, Jiang Ning's eyes suddenly opened slightly and the corners of his eyes twitched.

"Is it really worth a fortune?" he asked.

"It's really worth a fortune!" Lin Qingyi nodded: "This thing should be the most valuable thing on Xiao Shiqi's body."

Hearing this, Jiang Ning took the Earth Core Warm Jade from Lin Qingyi's hand.

The warm jade feels extremely soft and smooth.

After touching his body, the Earth Core Warm Jade continuously released warmth, transmitting from the surface skin to the deep of his arm.

"This red rope is a little unusual!" Jiang Ning looked surprised.

Lin Qingyi nodded: "Of course it's not ordinary! This is tied with a priceless earth-warming jade. If it's an ordinary red string, what if it breaks?"

Then she continued: "Even I can't break this red string! The same is true of this Earth Core Warm Jade, it is extremely hard."

Hearing this, Jiang Ning turned his attention back to the Earth Core Warm Jade in his hand.

Although this thing looks very light, he inexplicably feels it is very heavy.

Worth ten thousand gold.

If we sell it now, we can only get a few tenths of it.

This thing is too valuable!

He suddenly felt a little confused.

Could a princess of the royal family really be so naive?

Lin Qingyi looked at Jiang Ning and asked, "What are you going to do with this now?"

Jiang Ning slowly held up the Earth Core Warm Jade, then smiled and said, "Of course I'll keep it well. If I lose it, I won't be able to compensate you even if you sell me off."

"Hang it around your neck!" Lin Qingyi said, "This thing will be of great help to you. Whether it is to calm your mind, nourish your blood, or increase your mental strength, it is very practical."

"Yeah!" Jiang Ning nodded immediately.

"Let me help you!" Lin Qingyi suddenly stood up and put the cup of tea in her hand aside.

"Then I'll trouble you, Sister Lin!" Jiang Ning said.

Lin Qingyi came to Jiang Ning's side and took the warm jade from Jiang Ning.

She couldn't help but sigh: "Xiao Shiqi is really brave!"

As she spoke, she grabbed the two ends of the red rope with both hands and reached behind Jiang Ning's head.

Jiang Ning suddenly felt Lin Qingyi's snow-cold fingers touching his neck from time to time.

"Your body temperature is really high!" Lin Qingyi suddenly said, "It feels hot."

Jiang Ning smiled without looking back: "It's natural for men to have sufficient yang energy. Plus, Sister Lin is born with a cold body, so the feeling will be more obvious."

Lin Qingyi behind him just smiled and said nothing.

next moment.

"Okay!" She clapped her hands.

Jiang Ning grabbed the Earth Core Warm Jade and pulled it back, and immediately felt that the red rope around his neck was very strong.

"Don't use too much force!" Lin Qingyi suddenly said, "If you use too much force, the knot of the red rope tied around your neck will come undone. This is also to prevent you, Jiang Ning, from fighting with others. The red rope around your neck can become a weapon that can strangle your neck!"

"Sister Lin is really thoughtful!" Jiang Ning praised.

Just as Lin Qingyi said, the red rope was so strong that even she couldn't break it.

If such a tough red rope becomes a knot, once someone grabs it in close combat, the toughness of the red rope can directly strangle the person's neck.

Subsequently.

Jiang Ning grabbed the Earth-warming Jade and put it into his collar.

When the Earth's Core Warm Jade fell on his chest, he immediately felt the warmth slowly spreading from the Earth's Core Warm Jade in his chest.

Under the influence of this warmth, the qi and blood also become more energetic.

The brain feels a little ethereal and there are fewer distracting thoughts.

It's like some of the dust on the mirror was blown away.

Jiang Ning closed his eyes slightly and felt it for a while, then opened his eyes and showed admiration: "It is indeed worth a priceless item, it really works!!"

Lin Qingyi smiled and said, "This item is placed in the royal family, and it is also at the level of a family heirloom. It can be passed down from generation to generation. Its efficacy can benefit countless generations of descendants, so it is not an exaggeration to say that it is worth a million gold. It can even be said that it is priceless!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ning nodded in agreement.

In his opinion, it has reached a certain height.

Gold and silver are not important!

Because the most precious things in the world are always scarce.

Gold and silver are just currencies and general equivalents, not truly scarce items.

Lin Qingyi sat back in her previous position, with her hands on the bench and her legs stretched out in the air, as if she was stretching her muscles, looking very relaxed and comfortable.

She looked at Jiang Ning: "Have you thought about how to face Xiao Shiqi when you go to the capital in the future?"

Jiang Ning said calmly, "That will be at least a year later. We only met once, and Xiao Shiqi might have forgotten me by then! I will just return the Earth Heart Warming Jade to its original owner! As for that sentence, it was just a joke."

When speaking.

His eyes were also attracted by the white jade-like calf that was exposed when the hem of Lin Qingyi's skirt slipped down.

Seeing this, Lin Qingyi couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, as if she had noticed where Jiang Ning's gaze was.

"Do you like legs?" Lin Qingyi suddenly asked without any hesitation.

"It's okay!" Jiang Ning smiled awkwardly. It was always embarrassing to be caught peeking.

"Want to touch?"
