Chapter 1 Chaos Jewel
Daxia Kingdom, southern Hunan Province, Furong City.
As a provincial capital, Furong City has developed rapidly over the years, and the entire city has become more and more prosperous. At night, when the lights are on, the whole city is covered by night, there are lights and wine everywhere, and bars and karaoke bars are gradually becoming lively.
Not only are the bars and karaoke bars gradually becoming lively, but the business of various late-night snack stalls is also gradually becoming popular.
A late-night snack steak business by the river is particularly good. Twenty or thirty tables are basically full. The middle-aged boss and his wife are so busy that they are almost unable to touch the ground. On the side of the river, a young man is pouring himself a drink.
Huang Tian is in a very bad mood these days. His girlfriend, who has been in love for three years, officially proposed to break up a few days ago and fell in love with a rich second generation. Yesterday, he was fired by his boss for a major mistake in his work.
"Old Huang, my buddy is late."
A cheerful voice sounded, and a tall and thin young man sat down opposite Huang Tian. He was not polite, so he picked up a bottle of beer and blew it at the bottle. Then, without using chopsticks, he grabbed a piece of stinky tofu and put it in his mouth and chewed it.
Seeing his best friend's appearance, Huang Tian shook his head with a wry smile.
Seeing that Huang Tian didn't speak and his face was still bitter, Zhong Yuan asked concernedly: "Huang Tian, think about it more easily. A woman like Long Qianqian is not worthy of your sorrow. In addition, work is a trivial matter. You can find it again if you don't have it. Look at me, I have changed three jobs since I graduated."
Long Qianqian is naturally Huang Tian’s former girlfriend. Zhong Yuan has always been dissatisfied with Long Qianqian and thinks that this woman is too vain. As a best friend, Zhong Yuan wants to suggest that Huang Tian break up as soon as possible, but he swallows it back every time he says it.
After hearing Zhong Yuan's words, Huang Tian smiled bitterly: "Old Zhong, don't worry about me. I have gradually become more excited in the past two days. I will get better in a few days."
"Okay, this is how I look like my brother. Come on, let's do it." Zhong Yuan saw that his friend was basically fine and was in a good mood, so he picked up the wine bottle and touched Huang Tian.
The two of them were having a chat while eating, and Huang Tian seemed to have a much better mood. His face gradually became a smile. After drinking a bottle of beer, Huang Tian also started to talk around.
The two are best friends and can talk about any topic. In college, they had a relationship with the same dormitory. After graduation, they stayed in Furong City to develop together. It was a common thing to meet. Whenever they had time or on a phone call, they would eat, drink and gather together. Every time they had a small gathering, they would talk about topics and talk about everything.
I ate for two or three hours, and looked at the time on my phone. It was almost eleven o'clock in the evening. There were already many empty beer bottles on the desktop. The two of them were burping and eating almost the same.
"Old clock, I won't send it!"
Zhong Yuan was also a little drunk and burped, saying, "It's okay, I'll go back with the taxi."
The two said goodbye and watched Zhong Yuan get on a taxi. Huang Tian touched his stomach and slowly walked towards his residence.
The house that Huang Tian rented is not far from here, and it is less than ten minutes' walk, and it is a small one-bedroom and one-living room. Long Qianqian used to spend the night here, but recently, Long Qianqian has come here very few times. She even proposed to break up a few days ago, and soon took away all the things she didn't have.
The weather was still quite hot in early September. At around 11 o'clock in the evening, you could still feel the heat in the air. Smoked by the heat waves, Huang Tian felt his head dizzy, walked into the community where he rented a house and slowly walked towards his rental house.
"Ouch! Who is so immoral!"
As soon as he walked to the building where he rented a house, a jade pendant suddenly fell from the sky and hit Huang Tian's head accurately. Huang Tian felt a stinging pain in his head. He reached out and touched it and felt a bit of blood. Needless to think about it, he must have been smashed into a small hole.
He touched his head, then looked down at the culprit under his feet, and saw that it was a small piece of jade pendant. Huang Tian was full of curiosity and bent down to pick up the jade pendant.
Looking up at the residential building that was more than ten floors high, it was impossible to see which floor it was dropped. Huang Tian smiled bitterly and thought to himself, he didn't know if it was unlucky or lucky.
He took a jade pendant and looked at it through the street light. The jade pendant was in the shape of a water droplet, crystal clear, about the size of a little finger. Huang Tian looked a little and couldn't figure out who would throw such a good jade pendant from the upper floor. He touched his wound again. Seeing that the wound was no longer bleeding, Huang Tian slowly entered the elevator and went to his rental house on the top floor.
After returning home, Huang Tian put the small jade pendant in his hand on the table, then went into the bathroom to take a shower. The sound of water was clattering. After more than ten minutes, Huang Tian felt much more refreshed, and his sleepiness became stronger and stronger.
After throwing himself onto the bed, Huang Tian quickly fell asleep. Before he fell asleep, Huang Tian was still thinking in his mind what the small jade pendant was just now, whether it was worth it, and whether he would take it to someone to ask tomorrow. As he thought about it, Huang Tian fell asleep.
There were traces of blood on the small jade pendant on the table, which might be the blood from the small wound on Huang Tian’s head. These blood gradually disappeared into the jade pendant and finally disappeared completely, as if it was a sponge absorbing water.
Absorbing these traces of blood, the small jade pendant burst out with a soft, faint, red light, and the whole room was filled with this faint red color. The faint light did not last long and finally turned into a stream of light.
This light red light flew into Huang Tian's forehead and disappeared. There was no more small jade pendant on the table, and Huang Tian, who was sleeping, seemed to have no sense of all this.
Huang Tian in his sleep seemed very sweet and had a strange and bizarre dream. Everything in the dream seemed very clear and real.
The next morning, waves of alarm rings on mobile phones woke Huang Tian up like a conditioned reflex. Huang Tian got up immediately, got dressed, washed up for a while, and was about to go out. Huang Tian remembered that he was now an unemployed vagrant.
He patted his head gently, Huang Tian shook his head gently, sat down slowly, and sorted out his thoughts.
"By the way, I seemed to have picked up a small piece of jade pendant last night. Today I can take a good look at whether this piece of jade pendant is worth a little money."
Huang Tian was not rich. Although he had a job before, he could earn four or five thousand yuan a month, except for sending 1,000 yuan a month to go home, most of the rest was spent on Long Qianqian. Now, Huang Tian’s assets totaled less than five thousand yuan.
It was because he had no money and saw that this jade pendant looked like an ordinary product, so Huang Tian had the idea of this jade pendant and was about to take it to the Antique Street to try his luck to see if it could be sold for some money.
The antique streets in Furong City not only contain antiques, calligraphy and paintings, but also jadeware. Of course, there are more fakes, but fewer real things. Some shops also collect antique calligraphy, paintings and jadeware.
Thinking of his jade pendant, Huang Tian remembered that he put it on the table. However, Huang Tian searched for a long time and searched all the rental houses but did not find them.
"Strange, where did you go?"
Huang Tian looked puzzled, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure it out. He touched his head, but he was puzzled. Huang Tian was stunned as soon as he touched his head.
He hurriedly ran to the front of the mirror and looked carefully. There was obviously a small wound on his head, but now there was nothing. He could not see any of the small wounds that had been smashed into, and there was not a single blood-colored scab.
Huang Tian looked carefully but couldn't see any reason. He was full of wonder: "Did I drink too much last night, my head was so dizzy and hallucinated. There was no jade pendant at all, and I didn't cut my head at all."
"It must be like this." Huang Tian nodded, then sorted out and prepared to go downstairs. From today on, there is no job for the time being and there is not much surplus in his pocket. He still has to go to the talent market to find a better job.
There are many breakfast varieties in Furong City, and there are breakfast shops everywhere. Not far from Huang Tian left the community where he lives, he found a seat at a rice noodle shop next to the street and sat down, ordered a bowl of beef noodles and started eating.
The rice noodle shop has a good taste and business. The owner added a few tables at the door. Huang Tian’s location is right at the door of the rice noodle shop, basically close to the street.
Huang Tian, who was eating rice noodles, suddenly heard a burst of exclamation. Huang Tian immediately looked over instinctively. When he saw this, Huang Tian cursed in his heart.
"I'll go!"
