ltr ”>No wonder Pei Yuan always kept the mysterious items and never allowed Yu Ning to touch them.

 

For the readers, *paper people never age, and their minds automatically think that protagonists stay youthful and live happily ever after.
Who wants to read a story where the protagonist dies tragically just after their 40s!

 

*The book characters

 

Ji Mingxia couldn’t accept reading the book and knowing that the protagonists would end up like that, let alone now that he had transmigrated into the book and met Yu Ning, and Pei Yuan.

 

“Mingxia, are you alright?” Pei Yuan saw that Ji Mingxia’s face didn’t look right and hurriedly asked.

 

Ji Mingxia pulled the corner of his mouth, revealing a smile that was worse than crying: “You mean, you and Yu Ning won’t live to be fifty?”

 

Pei Yuan was stunned by the look in Ji Mingxia’s eyes and his expression became a little unnatural.

 

He wanted to emphasize Yu Ning’s abnormalities and he didn’t expect Ji Mingxia’s focus to be on his and Yu Ning’s lifespans.

 

Ji Mingxia’s face looked so sad that Pei Yuan couldn’t bear it and he had to say, “I am a dedicated person, the Pei family has been dealing with mysterious items since our ancestors, we are very experienced in facing them so you don’t have to worry.”

 

Pei Yuan then turned his words around, “But Yu Ning, like you, is an ordinary student, his current situation is indeed a little dangerous.”

 

Pei Yuan also narrated to Ji Mingxia about the reason for his appearance in the forest.

 

Pei Yuan was passing by and happened to notice a strange energy fluctuation in the direction of the forest.
It was only after he got closer that he noticed the boundary and he deliberately entered the forest to check it out.

 

Although he had passed through the boundary and managed to enter further into the forest, he did not know what was going as he had entered on a whim.

 

He did not know who had set up the boundary and what they were planning to do, nor did he know what the terrain within the forest was like and where he should go from there.

 

Pei Yuan searched the forest for a day, walking and stopping to look for clues.

 

He found an abandoned commercial vehicle and there were traces of human and ghost activity near the vehicle, as well as blood.
Just when he was about to check it out, he was attacked.

 

The person who attacked Pei Yuan was none other than Li Youzi.

 

“She appeared all of a sudden and was familiar with the terrain.
She used the bushes and light to interfere with my vision so I failed to catch her and only had time to leave a tracking mark before I lost her.” Pei Yuan said.

 

This tracking mark was a unique secret technique of the Pei family.
It could not only be used for tracking, but could also, to a certain extent, interfere with the play of mysterious items.

 

The mysterious item’s energy could not be brought into full play, directly interfering with Li Youzi’s murders.

 

Of course, at certain moments, the energy the crest absorbed from the mysterious object could also be fed back to the user.

 

Simply put, this triangular-shaped crest helped Pei Yuan have a vague sense of Li Youzi’s situation.

 

At the same time, every time she killed, Li Youzi’s power would be interfered with; while it can also save her life at a critical moment.

 

Ji Mingxia read the novel and he knew about Pei Yuan’s abilities.
He was very practical and decisive.

 

However, he preferred Yu Ning, the character, so he only knew a general idea of Pei Yuan’s skill points, but not the details.

 

With Pei Yuan’s narration, Ji Mingxia instantly matched up all the previous details.

 

After the triangular crest was carved above Li Youzi’s head, she managed to escape from Yu Ning’s attack with the power of the crest.

 

But at the same time, when she reappeared the next day after killing two people, she was in a very abnormal state.

 

It was likely that Li Youzi was unable to use the full power of the ring due to the interference of the crest, which caused her strength to be greatly reduced, and Yu Ning was able to take her down with ease.

 

The properties of the crest came into play once more when Li Youzu was about to die.
The crest supported Li Youzi for a few more minutes until it disappeared and she finally died.

 

The matter between Pei Yuan and Li Youzi was explained clearly but apart there were still a lot of doubts about him.

 

Ji Mingxia was in no hurry and quietly listened to Pei Yuan’s account.

 

After Li Youzi’s death, the boundary disappeared and the energy disturbance was reduced.
He had stayed in the forest for two days and had adapted to the environment.
He was now familiar with the terrain and understood how to get out of the forest.

 

Pei Yuan realised that the strange energy that had initially attracted him to the forest had not disappeared.

 

“I followed the strange energy up the mountain.
When I came to you, the bronze bell rang, proving that I was not wrong and that one of you already possessed the traits of mysterious items.” Pei Yuan said.

 

Ji Mingxia looked at him in surprise.

 

Pei Yuan’s bronze bell was one of Pei Yuan’s important items and Ji Mingxia had an impression of it.

 

According to the original story, the bronze bell possessed a consciousness and acuity, and only when faced with a great threat would it ring out to warn its master.

 

Ji Mingxia also recalled that the bronze bell had rung when Pei Yuan appeared before them earlier.

 

It was just that, he was shocked that Pei Yuan had appeared and the scene was very confusing for a while, causing him to forget to take this detail into account.

 

In that case, Pei Yuan appeared here not because of Li Youzi, but because one of them had attracted him from the beginning.

 

Ji Mingxia trembled and said, “Possessing the traits of mysterious items…… what does that phrase mean ……”

 

Pei Yuan said, “Mysterious items have unknown energy within them, whether it is the occurrence of supernatural events or our use of mysterious items, the source of everything, is caused by this unknown energy.
Under normal circumstances, the unknown energy is stored in the mysterious object, but under very special circumstances, this unknown energy can enter the human body.”

 

“It is like the electrical energy that is common in our daily lives.
We can use it for all sorts of things, but we cannot let it enter our bodies as once it does, it is a step towards death.”

 

“If you don’t die when the unknown energy enters the body, it ends up assimilating in the body.
We call it contamination.”

 

“The bronze bell didn’t warn me that there were powerful humans or fierce ghosts here, it was to inform me that there was a powerful mysterious object here.” Pei Yuan said, “To the Bronze Bell, one of you is no longer a human being, but one of its kind.”

 

'One of its kind……'

 

Ji Mingxia shuddered and a cold sweat broke out on his back.

 

Of the three of them, he and Bao Guangyuan had never touched a mysterious object.
Although they had encountered various dangers, the two of them were still within the range of ordinary people.

 

Only Yu Ning was able to harness the mysterious items for his use.

 

And there was more than one mysterious item on Yu Ning’s body!

 

In just one month, Yu Ning had collected a pair of rings and a bronze mirror, which added up to three mysterious items!

 

According to Pei Yuan, it was likely that Yu Ning had been contaminated by the unknown energy?
