Chapter 27 Storage Space
Chapter 27 Storage Space
Chang Yuan held the treasure in his hand, his heart filled with pride.
By calming down and reviewing the situation, clues were discovered.
Make bold assumptions and actively verify them.
After patiently exploring, I finally succeeded.
If any one step in this series of steps is not done properly, the treasure will not belong to him.
So, what kind of treasure is it?
Because his hands were covered in foul-smelling mud, Chang Yuan couldn't see what the treasure looked like, but he knew it was a palm-sized ceramic gourd just by holding it.
Chang Yuan crawled out of the sewer and entered the workshop next to the street, where he found a pool of water.
He turned on the tap and rinsed the treasure he had just acquired clean.
The porcelain gourd immediately revealed its bright red and yellow colors.
It features a yellow glaze base with iron-red paint applied to leave yellow patterns, creating a unique "yellow on red" technique.
The majestic yellow and the pure red color prove that the porcelain gourd was a special item supplied to the Ming Dynasty imperial family.
The decoration on the porcelain gourd is also extraordinary. The mouth is painted with cloud patterns, the upper belly has four lotus flowers, the waist has a lingzhi pattern, the lower belly has six lotus flowers, and there are six string patterns on the upper and lower parts, making the decoration five layers in total.
But the most convincing evidence is the six-character inscription in regular script within a double blue-and-white circle on the white ground inside the foot: "Made in the Jiajing Reign of the Great Ming Dynasty".
Chang Yuan was taken aback when he saw the signature.
The Jiajing Emperor seems to be appearing quite frequently these past few days.
Regardless, this porcelain gourd is a treasure even as an antique, especially since it clearly shows signs of being extraordinary.
As long as Chang Yuan gripped the porcelain gourd tightly, the spiritual energy within his body became exceptionally active, gradually flowing into the gourd.
As a seasoned online novel enthusiast, Chang Yuan immediately thought of the treasure recognizing its master. Not only did he not resist this slight extraction, he actively poured in the spiritual energy.
A moment later, he felt a sudden sense of clarity, and his mind entered a space filled with gray mist.
Gray fog...
Chang Yuan cracked his neck and cleared his throat: "Hmm, praising the fool?"
"Is the witch really that good?"
The lack of response greatly relieved Chang Yuan.
Not good.
As his mind delved deeper, a five-character poem emerged in his mind.
[A gourd, though small in size, contains a vast universe.]
In an instant, a flood of information entered Chang Yuan's mind, making him realize that the small porcelain gourd was called "Jiajing Yellow Ground Red Enamel Lotus Pattern Gourd Bottle", usually simply referred to as "Jiajing Gourd".
Originally a large carving with a height of 45.1 cm, a mouth diameter of 5.1 cm, and a foot diameter of 13.4 cm, it was later transformed by Taoists.
The Jiajing gourd, which contains the power of space, is extraordinary and so spiritually rich that it conceals itself and shrinks to one-tenth of its original size using the power of space.
The Jiajing gourd, which is 4.5 centimeters tall, was just the right size for Chang Yuan to grasp.
Chang Yuan probed the inside of the porcelain gourd with his mind. Following the control method he had just learned, he moved his mind slightly, and the loader and bullet he was holding in his left hand entered the gourd space.
The next second, the loader reappeared in his hand, while the bullet remained in the gourd space.
Then, bullets appeared one by one on the loader, in the exact same position.
This treasure is not only powerful, but also incredibly flexible to use, even capable of simulating a pseudo-unlimited bullet effect.
Of course, a revolver won't do; it has to be a pistol that can automatically eject the spent cartridge.
Chang Yuan played with it for a while, experimenting with all the small items he carried, before finally managing to control himself and continue exploring the Jiajing porcelain gourd.
He soon discovered that this gourd not only had storage space, but could also sense the presence of the other eight treasures.
However, these treasures were dim and obscure, and their condition was unclear.
According to the internal instructions of the porcelain gourd, Chang Yuan knew that this was because the treasure had not yet recognized a master and was in a dormant state.
It is clear that the great being who created these nine treasures viewed them as a set, but did not want them to be gathered in one person's hands.
Chang Yuan didn't understand the great power's thoughts, but he didn't care about them.
After all, the porcelain gourd has such a useful storage capacity that even without other functions, it is already the best treasure in the world.
He no longer has to worry about the problem of Yibo's bullets being bulky and difficult to carry after being put into a bag.
He will no longer have to worry about carrying and concealing the rifle.
Even the machine guns that will inevitably appear in the future, and the reserves of thousands of bullets, are no longer a problem.
Just as Chang Yuan was overjoyed and imagining how to develop the spatial capabilities of the porcelain gourd in the future, a sharp bell rang out from the workshop behind him.
Chang Yuan was startled and realized that this was not a place to stay for long!
Especially now that I possess such a valuable treasure, I absolutely cannot allow myself to be cornered in a dangerous situation.
He quickly put away the porcelain gourd, then hastily washed off the mud on his body before slipping out of the workshop.
Just like when he sneaked in, Chang Yuan stayed close to the wall, using the shadows to avoid the sight of the patrolling guards, and quickly moved out of town.
Instead of leaving through the town gate, he climbed over the outermost workshop and then climbed over the wall on the other side to leave the town.
Only after he climbed up the wall did he realize to his surprise that someone was digging a hole outside, and there was more than one person doing it.
The only drawback of the term "precise" is that it lacks features such as X-ray vision or radar.
When Chang Yuan was unaware that there were people outside the wall, the "precise" entry was unable to pinpoint enemies that did not exist in his knowledge.
Fortunately, Chang Yuan failed to notice that there were people outside the wall beforehand because the workshop was making a lot of noise.
Correspondingly, the people digging the hole outside the wall did not notice that Chang Yuan was climbing over the wall.
Chang Yuan saw the four people, and even after retreating inside the wall, the "precise" entry could still lock onto them through the wall.
Chang Yuan was thus able to pinpoint their exact location, so he moved to a spot out of their sight, silently scaled the wall, and quickly left the town.
But they hadn't gone far when Chang Yuan returned stealthily with a gloomy face.
After running away, he felt relaxed and couldn't help but recall the glimpse he had just made from the top of the wall.
He remembered that the three men had dug the pit to bury someone.
That's right, it's burying people!
It's not about burying corpses!
The fourth person was lying on the ground, but his hands were still moving, and he was even struggling.
They are burying people alive!
But Chang Yuan returned too late.
Whether it was because the victim was struggling or because those burying people had a set procedure, they beat the victim hard with shovels and even chopped off his head.
When Chang Yuan saw that the man had lost his head and his arms were hanging limply at his sides, he swallowed back the words "Stop!" that were on the tip of his tongue.
A sudden surge of anger welled up within him.
The intense, violent, and frenzied fire of slaughter burned his eyes until they were bloodshot, and his mind was filled with only the thought of "killing".
Ever since he transmigrated here, he has been killing people.
Kill the cultists, kill those who have turned into monsters, kill Lahu Gaoshan, kill the veteran Liu Yuan who was sent by the gods.
Murder requires a reason and motivation.
If it is for the sake of the Chinese nation, and to protect the lights of countless homes behind them, the magnificent power of civilization will help them crush all psychological pressure.
But Chang Yuan did it for his own survival, for the safety of his family, to complete his mission, and even to obtain more spiritual resources.
These reasons are reasonable, but not strong enough to completely eliminate the psychological pressure he felt after committing the murder.
In just over ten days, he unknowingly accumulated a lot of negative emotions.
Now, these emotions have been ignited.
