Zuo Shi walked around the third floor and felt a little bored. She stood motionlessly next to the turtle shell and waited for Shi Yan to hurry up.
Half an hour later, Shi Yan slowly walked up the stairs. He had changed into a green robe and looked quite handsome.
However, Zuo Shi only glanced at him and looked away. She continued to stare at the turtle shell in front of her and said, "If you're done, hurry up and let me have a look. I'm dying of anxiety from waiting."
Zuo Shi had seen too many handsome and stalwart young men. The men of the Zuo family were all handsome men, so Zuo Shi was almost immune to all kinds of handsome men.
"Little girl, you're used to people waiting for you. If you don't have a taste of waiting, how will you know how hard it is to wait?"
Shi Yan snorted coldly. He was in no hurry to go forward. He first walked around a few bookshelves and according to the memory in the depths of his mind, pulled out a thick book covered in dust. He then walked to Zuo Shi's side.
Zuo Shi was lost in thought for a moment because of Shi Yan's words. Then, she nodded gently and agreed, "You're right. It's always been people waiting for me. I've never waited for anyone. So this is what it feels like to wait for someone. But why did those people wait for me for so long without any temper? They even talked to me with smiles on their faces? "
"That's because they're cheap!" Shi Yan commented bluntly.
"Pfft!"
Zuo Shi pursed her lips and smiled. Her bright eyes looked at Shi Yan and she said with a smile, "You're so wicked. How are they cheap?"
"I don't think you should be called Zuo Shi. You should be called Zuo Xinxin."
"Why?"
"Where I come from, whatever a child lacks in their life, their name will make up for it. For example, the name Zhao Xin means that his life lacks gold. Wang Miao means that his life lacks water. Hmm, you should be called Zuo Xinxin … "
"You're the one who lacks intelligence! Bastard! "
"So you're not stupid?" Shi Yan's expression was indifferent. "If you're not stupid, how could you not know what they're planning? Since they want to please you, they definitely won't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction in front of you. Well, men, before they get something good, they're always cheap. After they get it, yeah, they're even more cheap! "
"Are you talking about yourself?" Zuo Shi's eyes sparkled as she looked at him with a smile.
"Ahem, I mean most men are like that, but I'm a special case!"
Shi Yan boasted shamelessly before squatting down guiltily. He moved closer to the turtle shell on the ground and flipped through the thick ancient book with one hand. When he flipped to a certain page, he would pause for a moment and point at a special ancient character.
On the back of the basin-sized turtle shell, apart from the complex and simple turtle patterns, there were actually eight lip-sized ancient characters. Those eight ancient characters didn't look like they were forcibly engraved on the shell. Instead, they looked like they were naturally outlined by the turtle patterns on the shell. It was very magical.
The eight ancient characters were arranged in two rows. Each ancient character was the same size and felt cold to the touch.
Shi Yan's left hand fumbled with the ancient characters while his right hand constantly flipped through the thick ancient book. Sometimes, he frowned in deep thought. Sometimes, his eyes lit up and the corners of his mouth revealed a trace of a smile. He seemed to have understood something and was completely focused on deciphering the characters on the turtle shell.
He, who was completely focused, didn't seem to know that there was a beautiful and moving girl right in front of him.
Zuo Shi's delicate body also slightly squatted down, her delicate face facing Shi Yan. She had been paying attention to the changes in his expression.
It had to be said that Shi Yan, who was focused on doing things, had a unique charm of a man. This kind of focused attitude made Zuo Shi admire him a little. She secretly nodded and said, "Although this guy is a little arrogant, and although his mouth is a little noisy, when it comes to doing things, he's still quite serious."
"Shua shua! Shua shua! "
In the quiet room, only the sound of Shi Yan's rapid flipping of the book could be heard. Zuo Shi quietly squatted beside him, quietly observed him and didn't say anything to disturb him.
After some time, Shi Yan suddenly closed the ancient book in his hand and said with a serious face, "It's out."
"What are these eight ancient characters?" Zuo Shi's eyes lit up and asked happily.
"Dragon Turtle Armor! Xuanwu True Kang! "Shi Yan said in a deep voice.
"Huh?"
Zuo Shi let out a soft cry and pointed at the turtle shell. She said in surprise, "The turtle shell lit up because of your voice!"
"Huh?"
ShiYan was startled. He hurriedly lowered his head to look at the turtle shell. Indeed, the turtle patterns on the turtle shell slowly released a faint cyan halo.
The eight ancient characters seemed to have come to life. They slowly wriggled on the turtle shell and reassembled on the shell.
Zuo Shi and Shi Yan gawked and dropped their jaws.
The eight ancient characters moved for a while and connected together to form a groove in the shape of a palm.
On the surface of the turtle shell, there was a faint green light flowing. Waves of strange waves also came from the turtle shell. The air in the room seemed to be attracted by the turtle shell and quickly flowed into it. This made it difficult for Shi Yan and Zuo Shi to breathe.
"Zuo Shi, I will watch over here. You go to the living room and call your grandpa and my grandpa here. Quick!" Shi Yan was stunned for a moment and suddenly shouted.
"Okay!"
Zuo Shi was also shocked by the turtle shell's change. She didn't dare to delay. Her slender body swayed and disappeared from Shi Yan's sight.
Shi Yan's expression was solemn as he stared at the turtle shell.
He saw the green light flowing on the turtle shell. The hand-shaped groove on the turtle shell became more and more obvious. As the air flowed in, the groove seemed to sink a little deeper.
After staring at the turtle shell for a while, Shi Yan suddenly realized that the turtle shell was acting strangely. It seemed to want someone to put their hand in it.
As soon as this idea came to his mind, Shi Yan couldn't help but want to put his hand in it.
However, just as he stretched out his hand, he suddenly came to his senses.
"No, this turtle shell belongs to Zuo Shi. I shouldn't touch it."
Thinking about this, Shi Yan stopped and took a deep breath. He moved a few steps away from the turtle shell and waited calmly.
Not long after, Zuo Shi, Zuo Xu, and Shi Jian rushed up together. The three of them surrounded the turtle shell and stared at it as it continued to change.
"It's like this …" Shi Yan briefly explained the situation and said, "The handprint on the turtle shell should be the way to open it. As long as you put your hand on it, you should be able to know the secret of the turtle shell. Since it was Xiao Shi who brought the turtle shell, I won't do it for her."
"Will it be dangerous?" Zuo Xu's eyes flickered. At this moment, he couldn't make up his mind.
"I don't know." Shi Yan shook his head and hesitated for a while before giving his opinion, "I don't know if it will be dangerous, so I asked Xiao Shi to call you here. Now that you are here, even if the turtle shell is in danger, you should be able to stop it in time. "
"You mean, we can give it a try?" Zuo Xu's eyes brightened. The words "Dragon Turtle Shell" and "Xuanwu True Star" were obviously related to secret treasures and Martial Skills. The turtle shell was so old, it was enough to prove its great value. It would be strange if Zuo Xu didn't want it.
"Of course we can give it a try." Shi Yan grinned and said casually, "Grandpa Zuo, if you are worried about Xiao Shi, I can do it for you. What do you think?"
"Let me."
Hearing Shi Yan's words, Zuo Shi didn't even ask for Zuo Xu's opinion. She stretched out her left hand and suddenly pressed on the deep groove on the turtle shell.
"Boom!"
A muffled explosion suddenly came from the turtle shell.
Five thin needles instantly shot out from the grooves and inserted themselves into the fingertips of Zuo Shi's fingers that were pressed into the grooves.
Dark red blood immediately dripped out of Zuo Shi's jade-like fingers. The ruby-like blood actually spun around in the groove as if it was a solid substance before being absorbed by the turtle shell.
Bright green light suddenly bloomed from the turtle shell. The dazzling green light was so dazzling that people couldn't even open their eyes.
Strange ancient symbols formed by the green light suddenly flew out and flowed along Zuo Shi's arm into Zuo Shi's brain.
