Chapter 1378 - 1378 Snow Pearl Revival
1378 Snow Pearl Revival
The nurse could only carry the child outside. In the corridor outside, An Rao was looking in anxiously.
Seeing the nurse walk over, An Rao went up to her. “How’s Yuan Yuan’s condition? Is she okay?”
The nurse handed the child to An Rao. “Doctor Shen and the rest are having a consultation. This is Miss Xia’s child. Do you want to take a look?”
An Rao waved her hand. “Take her away.”
If they were born in half a month, these two children would probably be surrounded by stars. However, now, not only did Jun Shiling not like them, but even when he carried them to An Rao, she only glanced at them indifferently and looked anxiously at the operating theater.
To normal women, giving birth to a child was a huge harm to their bodies, let alone Xia Wanyuan’s fragile body.
The children were born safely, but because Xia Wanyuan had lost too much blood and was exhausted, she was completely unconscious.
Jun Shiling stood silently at the side and looked at Xia Wanyuan on the bed quietly, his eyes filled with worry. He stood straight and did not move at all, as if he had become a still statue.
The experts did their best to save her, but Xia Wanyuan’s internal damage was too serious. By the next morning, the experts’ expressions were already quite ugly.
“CEO Jun, we’ve already done our best. Madam…”
There was no need for everyone to say the rest. Jun Shiling understood.
His expression darkened. “Is there no other way? No matter the price, as long as I can save her, I’m willing to pay any price!”
“Madam’s injuries are serious. In addition, giving birth consumed a large amount of blood and effort.” Shen Xiu stood up and explained the situation to Jun Shiling.
“I understand.” Jun Shiling walked to Xia Wanyuan’s side. “All of you can leave.”
After the experts left, Jun Shiling held Xia Wanyuan’s hand and looked at her pale face, his eyes filled with pain.
“I don’t want a child anymore.” Jun Shiling’s voice choked. “Come back.”
Xia Wanyuan lay quietly like a statue. The entire operating theater was so quiet that only Jun Shiling’s cries could be heard.
Suddenly, the crying stopped. Jun Shiling thought of the note from last night and took it out of his pocket.
Jun Shiling looked at it for a while and suddenly called Lin Jing in.
“CEO Jun, do you have any instructions?”
“Arrange for a private plane to Rongchang now.”
“Okay.”
Two hours later, a plane landed at Rongchang Airport.
The doctors followed behind and observed Xia Wanyuan’s condition. They secretly gave Shen Xiu a look. “Doctor Shen, why did CEO Jun bring Madam here? With Madam’s health, staying in Beijing Hospital is the best choice.”
Shen Xiu shook his head. “Don’t ask so much. CEO Jun has his own considerations.”
Everyone looked at Jun Shiling, who was walking in front. Even his back made one feel the pain and sorrow in his heart.
Everyone’s hearts were a little dull. The question just now was actually meaningless. Now, the person who wanted Xia Wanyuan to recover the most should be Jun Shiling.
Lin Jing brought people to pick Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan up. “CEO Jun, let’s go over directly.”
“Mm.”
Before the sun set, the group arrived at the center of the desert.
In the endless golden desert, a small area was specially surrounded by a tarpaulin. The professional staff walked forward and reported the situation to Lin Jing.
Lin Jing nodded, then looked at Jun Shiling. “CEO Jun, we can go down now.”
This place had been sealed off from the outside for a long time. The professional staff had already conducted a comprehensive exploration of the ancient tomb.
Jun Shiling turned around and glanced at Shen Xiu. Shen Xiu immediately understood.
“All of you stay outside and wait. I’ll accompany CEO Jun in.”
“Okay.”
The experts handed the medicine and equipment to Shen Xiu and waited outside. Shen Xiu followed Jun Shiling into the ancient tomb.
Ever since the ancient tomb was discovered, Shen Qian and Lin Jing had been in charge of the excavation here. This was the first time Jun Shiling had come here.
The ancient tomb on Long Qi Mountain was actually already very magnificent. The ancient tomb here was larger than Long Qi Mountain, and the structure of the tomb was even more complicated.
After walking around for a long time, they finally arrived at the main tomb.
At the entrance of the main tomb was a huge stone statue with all sorts of complicated patterns carved on it. Seeing Jun Shiling and the rest walk over, the staff walked forward.
“CEO Jun, the main tomb hasn’t been solved yet. We can’t enter for the time being.”
Jun Shiling looked at the heavy door and his eyes darkened. “Blow it up.”
“CEO Jun?” To professionals, blowing up the ancient tomb was the most unwise thing to do. After all, no one knew what was going on in the ancient tomb.
If the entire tomb structure collapsed and something uncontrollable happened, no one would dare to bear the responsibility.
“I said blow it up.” Jun Shiling’s expression was firm. “I’ll send someone over. Prepare to receive them.”
“Okay.” Someone wanted to persuade Jun Shiling again, but seeing Jun Shiling’s cold expression, everyone suppressed their thoughts.
Soon, a group of national professionals entered the ancient tomb. Everyone looked at these professionals in uniforms and felt a little more confident.
With them around, even if it exploded, nothing major should happen.
Time was equivalent to money now. Everyone quickly finished all the preparations. Jun Shiling walked to the mobile medical cabin beside him.
On the bed, Xia Wanyuan’s face was pale and she was still in a deep sleep.
“CEO Jun, Madam’s condition won’t last long.” Shen Xiu looked at Xia Wanyuan worriedly. “Her condition is already quite serious to begin with. Now that she’s still on a long journey, if she doesn’t return to the hospital for treatment in two hours, I’m afraid her condition will be quite dangerous.”
“Mm,” Jun Shiling replied and lowered his head to kiss Xia Wanyuan’s forehead. “You’re in charge of following her. No matter what you see later, don’t say anything.”
“Yes.” As Jun Shiling’s most trusted doctor, Shen Xiu naturally knew what to say and not to say.
Jun Shiling stood by the bed with Xia Wanyuan. Explosions came from outside from time to time. Not long after, Lin Jing walked in. “CEO Jun, it’s done according to your requirements. You can go in now.”
“Bring a few trusted aides in. Everyone else stay.”
“Okay.”
Jun Shiling brought a few close people into the ancient tomb. The tombs here had the same layout as Emperor Xia Yuan’s ancient tomb, but there were some differences.
It was equally magnificent. The entire tomb seemed to have replicated the luxury of its owner when she was alive. The staff was very shocked when they saw the scene in front of them.
There was no need to mention the shock of the archeologists. With such a tomb size, it was obvious that it was at the emperor level.
What puzzled everyone was that there was clearly an emperor in the Xia Dynasty. From the records, there was only one emperor. Then who was this person with the burial standards of an emperor??
At this moment, Jun Shiling seemed to have sensed something and looked back. He walked into the medical cabin. Xia Wanyuan, who was on the bed, had already opened her eyes.
“We’re at the ancient tomb.” Jun Shiling held Xia Wanyuan’s hand. “Can your body do it?”
Xia Wanyuan nodded. “Help me up. I want to see.”
“Okay.” Jun Shiling carefully helped Xia Wanyuan up and walked out with her.
When Shen Xiu saw Xia Wanyuan, his eyes widened slightly. “CEO Jun, Madam’s health…”
Jun Shiling waved his hand, and Shen Xiu immediately shut his mouth. “Madam and I will go in. Wait here.”
Everyone wanted to say something but hesitated. They watched as Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling entered the tomb.
After passing through a door made of pure gold, the scene inside was different from the prosperous and extravagant outside.
This place was filled with eight trigrams runes and all sorts of strange arrays. In the middle of the room was a huge coffin.
Seeing the coffin, Xia Wanyuan walked forward. Jun Shiling hurriedly supported her.
“I want to see what’s inside.” Xia Wanyuan wanted to know if it was her corpse lying in the coffin.
“Okay.” Jun Shiling helped Xia Wanyuan in.
Surrounding the coffin were a large number of mechanisms and hidden weapons. Xia Wanyuan seemed to know these things quite well.
Along the way, according to Xia Wanyuan’s instructions, Jun Shiling eliminated all the hidden weapons.
Walking to the coffin, Jun Shiling supported Xia Wanyuan with one hand and pushed it open with the other.
Even though a thousand years had passed, the quality of the coffin was quite good. Jun Shiling tried his best but could not move it at all.
At this moment, Xia Wanyuan looked around and said, “Go to the phoenix eye in front and press it three times.”
Following Xia Wanyuan’s instructions, Jun Shiling walked over and pressed it three times. Just as Xia Wanyuan had said, after three times, the huge coffin automatically opened.
Because it had been sealed for too long, when the entire coffin opened, it emitted an old creaking sound that made one’s heart tingle.
The coffin was slowly moving. Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling stood at the side and stared intently at the scene in the coffin.
Finally, a corner was revealed, and an endless cold aura seeped out. Jun Shiling hurriedly covered Xia Wanyuan with his coat and moved her to the side.
The coffin was still opening. As the exposed area became larger and larger, Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling looked surprised.
At this moment, there was an ice coffin in the coffin. The ice that had not melted for a thousand years enveloped the person inside and kept her from rotting for a thousand years.
Jun Shiling had imagined Xia Wanyuan’s previous life countless times. At this moment, Xia Wanyuan had crossed the long river of history and appeared in front of him in the form of a corpse.
Although a thousand years had passed, Xia Wanyuan, who was in the ice, was alive as if she had never died.
She was wearing a yellow palace dress and a crown. She lay quietly in the coffin, peaceful but filled with dignity.
Looking at herself in the coffin, Xia Wanyuan had a strange feeling.
This feeling of being able to see her corpse a thousand years later was really strange.
“Does your Xia Dynasty have a sacred artifact?” Xia Wanyuan was sizing up her corpse, while Jun Shiling was searching for the sacred artifact mentioned in the note in the coffin.
“What sacred relic?” Xia Wanyuan turned to look at Jun Shiling. After standing for so long, her stamina could not hold on anymore. She could only lean on Jun Shiling and barely stand.
“I’m not sure either. A sacred artifact that can bring the dead back to life. Think about it. Do you have it?”
Xia Wanyuan frowned. “I’ve never heard of it… No, I think there’s one.”
No matter what dynasty it was, there would always be all sorts of strange legends.
Ever since Xia Wanyuan was young, she had always heard her parents mention a sacred item left behind by their ancestors in the Great Xia Dynasty.
It was said that back then, the ancestor of the Xia family had saved a frozen old man in the snow. The ancestor had used his blood as water to pull the old man back from the brink of death.
After the old man regained consciousness, he gave his ancestor a Snow Pearl and told him that this could revive the dead and restore the bones. Later on, the old man disappeared.
Although her mother had always told this legend to Xia Wanyuan and Emperor Xia Yuan as a story, Xia Wanyuan had never believed that such a thing really existed.
Now that Jun Shiling asked, Xia Wanyuan told Jun Shiling about the legend of the Snow Pearl.
“Snow-white pearl?” Jun Shiling’s eyes were deep. He pointed at the ice coffin. “Is that the one?”
Xia Wanyuan had not paid attention to the scene in the ice coffin at all just now. Now that Jun Shiling pointed, Xia Wanyuan saw that in the ice coffin, above her head, was a snow-white pearl. Even though it had been frozen in the ice for an entire thousand years, the surface of the pearl had a layer of gentle light.
While Xia Wanyuan was still watching, Jun Shiling had already called Lin Jing to bring people in.
However, the phone was switched off.
Jun Shiling frowned. It was impossible for Lin Jing’s phone to be switched off, let alone in such an urgent situation.
Jun Shiling pulled Xia Wanyuan into his arms. “Let’s go out first.”
However, it was already too late. Countless men in black surged in from all directions. “CEO Jun, since you’re here, why don’t you take a good look before leaving?”
In Continent F, looking at Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan, who were surrounded by the coffin, the black-robed man chuckled. “Young Master Chu, is this the Jun Shiling you said was not to be trifled with?? Looks like he’s nothing much. We don’t even have to bother looking for Xia Wanyuan anymore. Didn’t we capture them in one fell swoop??”
Chu Yi looked at the black-robed man and then at the scene in the surveillance video. He felt that something was wrong.
