"Perhaps no one knows about the Soul Pearl, but what about the Heavenly Jade Pearl?”
Just as the scene was in chaos, an old man suddenly spoke!
As soon as the old man spoke, the entire scene fell silent.
First of all, this old man was not an ordinary old man. He was not a native of Tengchong, but he had been in Tengchong all his life.
The old man's original name was Xu Dabao, and he was a soldier. During the war, he was sent by the warlords to guard Tengchong. At that time, Tengchong's location was relatively better. When the Japanese attacked China, Tengchong wasn't the affected area.
However, at that time, Japan's ambitions were extremely great. However, the higher-ups still arranged for people to be stationed here, in case the war reached here one day. At that time, there would be a crowd of people without a commander. If the war started, it would be another Jinling massacre.
Elder Xu was a small team leader of the warlord back then. After coming here, he had quietly defended the place.
As the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the romans do. Not long after, Elder Xu also fell in love with jade and would study it every day. At that time, a gun was a master. Some merchants would give him some good things to ensure that they would not be hurt.
His days were pretty good.
Until one day, something that shocked the entire city and even the entire province suddenly appeared in Tengchong's market.
This thing was a round and plump jade bead. No one knew where it came from or whose hand it came from.
However, what was known was that this pearl had been appraised by countless people and had given a unified result. This bead was not a work of art, which meant that this round and plump jade bead was directly cut out from the original stone.
Those who loved jade were shocked!!
Since ancient times, bracelets, earrings, or jade pendants made of jade were all man-made sculptures. And this incomparably beautiful jade bead was actually something made by the heavens. For this reason, this jade bead was named the Heavenly Jade Pearl.
Then, the jade merchants went crazy!
One by one, they offered sky-high prices that even ordinary rich people would think were sky-high prices. They were prepared to buy this jade bead.
After a series of competitions, before the jade bead could be sold, a soldier suddenly arrived. They came here without any nonsense, and their goal was the jade bead.
Who dared to disobey the demands of those in power at that time? Even if this thing was priceless, to his family's life, this bead was just a good-looking thing.
However, just as the warlord was about to take the things away, a group of Japanese troops attacked Tengchong quietly and no one noticed.
This attack had killed all the warlords, along with a few villagers.
With so many people dead, the warlord was unhappy. He immediately sent troops over to counterattack.
A great battle began. This battle lasted for three months. In three months, more than 10,000 soldiers and civilians died. Due to the poor calculation ability back then, this number of more than 10,000 people was a conservative estimate.
Tengchong was dyed red with blood. The entire city seemed to be surrounded by a sad mood. The commoners did not dare to go out, and the soldiers were ready to sacrifice themselves at any time.
Fortunately, three months later, the war ended. The Japanese army retreated, and the warlord could not find the bead. After seven days, the warlord also left.
And all of this was because of a priceless pearl.
From then on, this Heavenly Jade Pearl was called the Soul Pearl by the older generation of Tengchong.
The implication was that because of this pearl, ten thousand people had been sacrificed.
Elder Xu was the warlord who had been left behind during the war. Even after the warlord had left, he still refused to give up and had Elder Xu bring a group of people to wait here.
Later on, due to various reasons, the era of peace had arrived. Elder Xu was arranged to be the chief of the police station because of his combat ability and public security ability.
For this reason, some of the middle-aged men who grew up in Tengchong knew Elder Xu.
Now, after Elder Xu mentioned the Heavenly Jade Pearl, almost everyone knew the origin of this pearl.
Because in the stories of the older generation, when they told this story, they all talked about the Heavenly Jade Pearl, so when they heard about the Soul Pearl, most people did not think of the same thing.
Jiang Bei listened to their stories slowly and glanced at the pearl under the sun. He didn't know whether it was because of photosynthesis or something else, but the emerald green Heavenly Jade Pearl looked a little dark.
"What a great Ten Thousand Soul Array. Do you think that the Zhou family can take this thing for themselves by doing this? It seemed that the previous Divine Minister of the Zhou family had not died unjustly.”
As everyone was discussing the matter, Jiang Bei opened his mouth. He looked at the pearl and said this without a change in expression.
Zhou Yitian took a few steps back and stared at Jiang Bei in disbelief.
Such a reaction made the onlookers even more confused.
"I... I don't know. I... I don't know... I don't know what you're talking about!"
Zhou Yitian quickly reacted to his own loss of composure and said hurriedly.
"Didn't your father warn you before he died? He has already paid the price, but you still refuse to come to your senses?”
As soon as Jiang Bei finished his sentence, the most beautiful jade bead suddenly emitted a puff of black smoke. Then, the jade bead, which was originally covered in a layer of black shadow, turned even greener.
Zhou Yitian was the only one who saw this.
"No, I don't think so. No!"
When Zhou Yitian saw the black smoke coming out of the pearl, he charged at Jiang Bei like a mad beast. His right hand was already stretched out, wanting to take back the pearl from Jiang Bei's hand!
However, as Zhou Yitian neared Jiangbei, he realized that he couldn't move!
In the next few seconds, he watched helplessly as the jade bead emitted all the black gas.
"Hahahaha, hahahaha, hahahaha!!”
After he was done, Divine Image Zhou suddenly burst into laughter. This sharp laughter resounded throughout the entire square!
