Chapter 217 Bronze Mirror
When everyone heard this, they immediately cheered. The excitement and cheers intertwined together, shaking the surrounding leaves rustling, as if playing a cheerful melody for them.
The young people were full of enthusiasm and ran back to their homeland, packing their bags swiftly. The women helped each other pack up the valuables in the house, and kept talking about their longing for a new life!
Although the elderly moved slowly, there was excitement in their eyes. They directed the children to pack up their toys and clothes. The family was happy but busy but not chaotic.
"Everyone, work harder. Let's move more things down while it's still light!" A young and strong man from the Tang family shouted loudly. His forehead was covered with sweat, but his eyes were full of enthusiasm.
Everyone responded, and ox carts and horse carts loaded with luggage and supplies moved slowly forward on the rugged mountain road, the wheels rolling and raising a cloud of dust.
While the Tang family members were busy moving to their new homeland all night long, Murong Linger was already moving quickly through the mountains and forests like an arrow.
She was agile and walked lightly, leaving only a slight breeze wherever she passed. Since she was traveling alone, her speed was much faster than that of the large group, and at this moment she was already far behind the team, having fallen behind by half a day's distance.
She stopped and looked around. She saw towering ancient trees and a quiet and secluded place, but there was no sign of the team.
"Golden Eagle King!" Murong Ling'er called out softly. Before she finished her voice, a majestic golden eagle swooped down from the treetops. Its huge wings stirred up a gust of wind and landed in front of Murong Ling'er.
The golden eagle king has a majestic figure, and its feathers sparkle with golden light in the sunlight. Its sharp eyes are fixed on Murong Ling'er, as if waiting for her order.
Murong Ling'er walked forward, gently stroked the Golden Eagle King's neck, and said solemnly, "Golden Eagle King, go ahead and scout the way to see where they are. Don't let me miss them."
The Golden Eagle King seemed to understand her words and let out a long cry towards the sky. The sound cut through the sky and was deafening.
Then, it spread its wide wings, flapped them hard, and took off into the air, rushing towards the sky.
Soon, its agile figure turned into a small black dot and disappeared from Murong Ling'er's sight.
The night fell like a huge piece of black silk, tightly covering the forest. The forest, which had shown some vitality during the day, now seemed to be dragged into the dark abyss by an invisible hand, and a gloomy and terrifying atmosphere filled every inch of the air.
The wind whistled through the forest, like the howling of ghosts and wolves, which was creepy. Unknown wild beasts roared one after another in the dark, as if fighting for dominance of the night.
Murong Ling'er was like an elf in the night, moving lightly through the deep mountains and forests full of dangers.
She closed her eyes slightly, and her powerful spiritual sense spread out in all directions like an invisible wave of light, exploring the road ahead. Every step she took was steady and firm, her expression as calm as water, without any sign of panic.
Today during the day, she had harvested a number of prey in the mountains with her superb hunting skills. Now she was exhausted both physically and mentally, and naturally had no interest in hunting again.
After walking for a while, Murong Ling'er keenly noticed a hidden small cave in front of her, which seemed like a natural safe haven. She flashed and entered the cave like a ghost.
This was the first time she had truly been alone since she had awakened from this body. The silence around her made her feel a little strange yet somewhat comfortable.
Murong Ling'er skillfully built a bonfire. The jumping flames instantly dispelled the chill in the cave and cast her figure dimly on the cave wall.
She took out half a marinated chicken from the storage bag and placed it above the embers. After a while, the rich aroma of the chicken filled the air.
Just when she was feeling bored, the mysterious wooden box that Tang Muyang gave her suddenly appeared in her mind.
Murong Ling'er waved her jade hand, and the wooden box slowly flew out of the space and landed steadily in her palm.
She raised her eyebrows slightly, and with a bit of curiosity and nonchalantness, she gently opened the lid of the box.
In an instant, a soft and mysterious light overflowed from the box, illuminating her beautiful face.
When she saw clearly what was in the box, Murong Ling'er's eyes suddenly fixed, as if she had been struck by lightning, and she was stunned for a moment.
Her thoughts drifted back to the moment when Tang Muyang handed over the wooden box. His solemn and nervous expression clearly appeared before her eyes. He even solemnly warned her, "Miss Murong, this item is of great importance. Please keep it properly."
At that time, she did not pay much attention to it, thinking it was just an ordinary instruction. Now it seems that there may be a major secret hidden in it, and Patriarch Tang obviously does not want to let this secret leak out easily.
Murong Ling'er gently picked up the object in the box and looked at it carefully.
It was a simple bronze mirror the size of a palm, with delicate and intricate patterns carved on the mirror body. Those patterns seemed to contain some kind of mysterious power, flickering faintly in the light of the fire.
The mirror surface is as smooth as a mirror, but it exudes an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, as if it can reflect the vicissitudes of time and the changes of history.
Murong Ling'er let out a faint bitter smile as she thought to herself: These earthly objects are just a drop in the ocean for someone like her who has experienced countless hardships. What special use can they have?
She shook her head slightly, her fingers unconsciously stroking the bronze mirror.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to her mind, and a long-forgotten past event flooded into her heart like a tide.
She recalled that she had heard that hundreds of years ago, a mysterious organization called "Shadow Pavilion" appeared in the world. This organization attempted to overthrow the court and control the world!
In fact, the Shadow Pavilion is a branch of the Witch Clan. They secretly planned a shocking conspiracy, although they were eventually besieged by the imperial court.
But it is said that in the chaos, a treasure related to the lifeblood of the royal family disappeared. It is said that the treasure can open a mysterious place that hides huge treasures and peerless martial arts secrets. The owner may dominate the martial arts world.
Could it be that the bronze mirror in her hand is the treasure that disappeared that year?
Murong Ling'er's heartbeat suddenly quickened, and an inexplicable excitement and nervousness surged in her heart. She looked at the bronze mirror carefully again, trying to find some clues to confirm her guess.
As her thoughts deepened, Murong Ling'er thought of the strange curse on the Tang family.
She secretly guessed that perhaps the curse was caused by this bronze mirror. The ancestors of the Tang family might have had some interactions with the people of the Shadow Pavilion, and later they became enemies because of this bronze mirror. In order to avoid disaster, the Tang family chose to live in seclusion, but they did not expect that this curse would haunt them like a thorn in the flesh.
Murong Ling'er's eyes became more profound, and she connected all the clues one by one in her mind.
At this moment, the bronze mirror in her hand is no longer just an ordinary object, but more like a key to open a mysterious door, a key item that can change the world situation.
