Chapter 1010: Chapter 1009: Opening the Oiled Paper Packet
Luo Yirui and Jing Changle opened the oil paper package together, inside was a small iron box. The small iron box wasn’t locked, and it opened easily, which made the two little buns somewhat disappointed.
Shouldn’t there be a lock, and matched with some mechanism?
Only then would it have a sense of mystery, like if you opened it, poisonous arrows would shoot out or poison mist would spray, proving that the contents were very precious!
Now that it opened so easily, the two little buns felt it was like hiding toys...
Of course, Hao Meili wouldn’t go out in the middle of the night to hide toys, it’s just how they felt.
Despite some disappointment, they were still curious about the contents of the box.
The small iron box contained three items in total.
Luo Yirui took out a piece of paper, he didn’t know what material this paper was made of, it seemed waterproof, and it was filled with... words?
These are words, right? Why don’t I recognize a single one?
"This isn’t English, is this the language of some country?" Luo Yirui asked Jing Changle.
Jing Changle was speechless, he didn’t know, he hadn’t even attended much school, how could he know, he hadn’t even seen what English looked like.
After looking for a long time without knowing what was written on it, or even if it was writing, Luo Yirui had to set it aside for now, then took out a ring from the iron box?
Jing Changle looked at the large, jade ring for a long time and said, "Why is this ring so big and silly looking? Silly big!"
Luo Yirui laughed, "This is a thumb ring, and you call it silly big, you have a way with words."
"What’s a thumb ring?"
"A thumb ring is... well, a ring one size larger is called a thumb ring," Luo Yirui thought for a moment and said seriously.
He had seen his mom with a thumb ring. At that time, he also called it a ring and was laughed at by his mom; he didn’t expect he would have the chance to laugh at someone else one day.
Jing Changle nodded understandingly, just a big ring then.
Luo Yirui took the thumb ring from Jing Changle, looked at it, the jade was good jade, even though he didn’t quite understand, but generally, jade used to make thumb rings was good jade, his mom said so.
He didn’t know his mom’s words needed to be taken in context.
The last item Luo Yirui recognized, it was the only thing he recognized.
It was a talisman medium!
Seeing this talisman medium, Luo Yirui was quite shocked. Why would there be such an item among the things Hao Meili hid, she was definitely an ordinary person, so this item must not belong to her!
He picked up the talisman medium for a closer look, even more shocked, for he didn’t recognize the talisman scripts on it!
Actually, although talismans have many subtle variations, generally one can identify the type of talisman; many paths lead to the same destination. However, this talisman medium, Luo Yirui didn’t understand it at all!
"All these are strange things..." Luo Yirui said.
Seeing the paper filled with odd characters gave him a strange feeling in his heart, and the thumb ring, he remembered his mom once said thumb rings generally represented something, most of the time they signified identity.
Lastly, there was this talisman medium he didn’t even know what it was for!
"What exactly is this talisman medium used for?" Luo Yirui wondered, really wanting to try it out.
After thinking it over, he decided not to act rashly; after all, it was obtained from Hao Meili, and there seemed to be something suspicious about Hao Meili, better to wait until his mom had a look before deciding.
Soon after, Luo Yirui was very thankful for that decision.
