Chapter 298: Jade Tablet

Chu Luo stopped in her tracks and turned around.

It was a thin boy with a lunchbox in his hand.

“Chu Luo!”

When the boy saw Chu Luo, he was obviously a little surprised. He subconsciously quickened his pace and walked over. He asked uncertainly, “Are you Chu Luo?”

Chu Luo nodded. “Yes.”

“Why are you here in our archeology department? Are you here to take photos too?”

The buildings in the College of Archaeology were very unique and ancient. Many students from the other colleges liked to come over and take photos.

The boy added, “You can take photos, but everyone takes photos in front. You’re not allowed to take photos here.”

“No,” Chu Luo said. “I came over with a professor from the ancient language department last time. I heard from your professor that there are many antiques from various dynasties here. I happened to be here today, so I wanted to come in and take a look.”

She widened her big, sparkling eyes and asked expectantly, “Can I take a look?”

“Erm…” The boy looked into Chu Luo’s eyes and couldn’t refuse her. “You can look, but you can’t touch. Many of our antiques are damaged. A few are being repaired. If you touch them, all the efforts will be for naught. ”

“Okay, I promise not to touch anything.”

After Chu Luo promised this, the boy led her to the room in front.

Chu Luo pointed at the second room on the left. “Let’s go to this one.”

The boy nodded and opened the room.

As Chu Luo followed him in, she asked, “Did the antiques inside come from the National Ancient Artifact Museum, or did the professors go to tombs to retrieve them?”

“They’re basically brought back by professors who followed the national archeological team to the tombs.”

The two of them walked into the room.

Indeed, many of the items were damaged, with some parts missing.

The boy pointed at a few ancient items in a glass cabinet that looked more complete and said, “Those were repaired by our faculty’s professors.”

Chu Luo walked over and stood in front of the glass cabinet. There were big antiques, small snuff bottles, and copper coins inside.

After looking at them for a while, she pointed at a porcelain bottle and asked, “I can’t tell what’s wrong with that porcelain bottle.”

“That porcelain bottle was broken at the bottom. It’s impossible to tell.”

Chu Luo nodded and looked elsewhere.

There was a worktable on the right. It was at least two meters long and there were a few items of various sizes placed on it. Chu Luo’s gaze was fixed on a white jade tablet carved with two dragons playing with beads.

Almost the entire white jade tablet was solid, but the two dragons playing with beads on the top were hollow.

This jade tablet was obviously expensive, but a large piece of the head of one of the dragons had been damaged, and the bead in the middle was also no longer there.

Chu Luo looked at the jade tablet and a voice sounded in her mind. “Help me, help me.”

Hearing this voice, Chu Luo subconsciously walked a little closer.

“Chu Luo, don’t get too close to that side. The things on it are very important. The professor instructed us not to touch them.”

Just as the boy finished speaking, the lights above the work table suddenly went out.

“Eh? What’s going on?”

The boy wanted to go over and look at the lights.

“Wait.”

Just as Chu Luo spoke, the entire room became pitch-black.

“What… what’s going on?”

The boy was shocked. “It’s clearly daytime. Why is it dark?”

As he spoke, he wanted to walk towards the door.

Chu Luo stood there without moving. Her gaze was still fixed on the work table. At this moment, the jade tablet on the work table emitted a faint glow.

Chu Luo raised her arm and knocked out the boy walking towards the door.

Then, she looked at the glowing jade tablet.

The voice in her mind sounded again. “Help me find my incomplete part and retrieve my bead and I will fulfill your wish.”

“Ha!” Chu Luo sneered. “I can fulfill my wish myself. Why should I let you fulfill it?”

After she said that, a red light quickly erupted from her body. The red light instantly lit up the entire room and formed a barrier.

“You’re actually from the Phoenix Clan!”

“No, Phoenix is just my intrinsic beast.”

“How is that possible? A phoenix is so proud. How can it possibly become your intrinsic beast!”

After this sound ended, a strong gust of wind suddenly blew into the room.

Chu Luo narrowed her eyes at the wind. Then, a faintly discernible dragon appeared in front of her.

Chu Luo looked at the dragon in front of her who couldn’t maintain its form at all and frowned. A strange premonition suddenly surged in her heart. “Where are you from?”

“I’m the guardian beast of the Imperial Mausoleum of Emperor Yan. Eighteen years ago, a group of tomb raiders barged into the Imperial Mausoleum. At the same time, they destroyed my real body, making me unable to protect that Imperial Mausoleum with powerful energy…”

“Wait.”

Chu Luo stopped him and frowned. “Why is it 18 years ago again?”

She asked the jade dragon, “How did the tomb raiders find your Imperial Mausoleum 18 years ago?”

When the jade dragon heard this, a strong gust of wind blew into the room. He looked very angry.

“Those tomb raiders were really looking for the Imperial Mausoleum beside the Yan Imperial Mausoleum.”

“That Imperial Mausoleum is beside the Yan Imperial Mausoleum?”

“That’s right. That Imperial Mausoleum has always been close to the Yan Imperial Mausoleum. The one that the tomb raiders truly entered was the Yan Imperial Mausoleum. Everyone who entered that Imperial Mausoleum died. Later on, that Imperial Mausoleum disappeared.

“My missing piece disappeared from that Imperial Mausoleum.”

When Chu Luo heard this, her frown deepened. “How did the living come out 18 years ago?”

“They were protected by my true body.”

Chu Luo finally thought through what she hadn’t been able to fathom before and asked, “Since it disappeared, how can I help you find it?”

“I can feel that the Imperial Mausoleum has appeared again.”

Chu Luo pursed her lips and stopped talking.

The jade dragon was a little anxious. “A powerful curse was placed on that Imperial Mausoleum. In these thousands of years, it has formed a very powerful baneful aura. Those who enter will never return.”

“Isn’t that good?” Chu Luo didn’t want anyone to enter that tomb either.

“Do you really think it’s good? I heard from the people here that they have already found the location of the Imperial Mausoleum. When the time comes, they will all go there. Also, the temptation inside is too great. Can you guarantee that the people you care about won’t go?

“You have the same aura as that Imperial Mausoleum on you. I can feel it. Only you can help me retrieve the incomplete parts of my body. If you want to go down that tomb, you have to bring me along so you can escape unscathed.”

Chu Luo frowned even more.

At that moment, Phoenix told her, “Mistress, someone is coming this way.”

Chu Luo thought for a while and said to the jade dragon, “Restore this place to normal.”

With a flash of light, the room became bright again.

Chu Luo looked at the jade tablet and raised her hand.

The jade tablet flew into her hand.

Chu Luo put the jade tablet into her Heaven-and-Earth pouch and used a spell to restore all the antiques that had been shattered by the wind caused by the jade dragon before conjuring up an identical jade tablet to place there.

After she did all of this, the boy who had fainted opened his eyes.

Chu Luo turned around and asked him, “Why did you suddenly fall unconscious?”

The boy didn’t have any memory from just now. He got up from the ground awkwardly and said in embarrassment, “Maybe it’s because I didn’t sleep well these past few days. My blood sugar was low just now.” Actually, he had played games overnight for a few nights.

Chu Luo nodded. “Then quickly go back to the dormitory to rest.”

Just as Chu Luo finished speaking, footsteps came from the courtyard outside.

Then, the door was pushed open. A professor stood by the door and asked, “Why are you guys here?”

“Professor Chen.”

The boy said to the professor standing by the door, “Chu Luo wanted to take a look, so I brought her here.”

Professor Chen looked at Chu Luo and asked with a smile, “Is Chu Luo interested in our archaeology department?”

Chu Luo nodded. “I’ve always wanted to see how the antiques here are repaired, so I came over at noon to take a look.”

Professor Chen was obviously a warm person and had a good impression of Chu Luo. She said, “You can ask me if you want to know anything. Yang Jun is just a dabbler.”

Professor Chen gestured to Chu Luo. “Chu Luo, what do you want to know? I’ll tell you.”

Chu Luo followed her to the work table and pointed at the jade tablet. “Why is that jade tablet missing such a big piece? Can it be repaired?”

“As long as we can find the missing parts, we can definitely fix it.”

“Really? Then will it be exactly the same after it’s repaired?”

“Haha, it’ll definitely be a little different from before. After all, the repair won’t be perfect.”

Chu Luo was a little disappointed. “That’s true.”

“But if one doesn’t look at it carefully, there should be no problem with it inside the display case for others to view. This jade tablet is actually a very expensive antique. If not for the missing piece, it would definitely have been placed in the National Museum.”

Professor Chen and Chu Luo talked about the origin of that jade tablet for a while. Chu Luo listened seriously and occasionally asked a question or two.

Yang Jun, who was standing at the side, couldn’t help but complain in his heart:?‘Who exactly is your student?!’

Professor Chen only let Chu Luo go when class was about to start.

After class in the afternoon, Chu Luo had just walked out of the classroom when she received a call from Li Yan.

Li Yan said to her over the phone, “Luoluo, I’ll come to the school to pick you up later.”

Chu Luo found it a little strange. She had clearly said in the morning that he didn’t need to pick her up. Nonetheless, she didn’t object. She said, “Then I’ll wait for you outside the school.”

Unexpectedly, Li Yan said, “No need. I’ll come into the school to pick you up.”

Chu Luo was even more puzzled. She planned to see what he wanted to do later, so she responded with an “Mm.”

After hanging up the phone, she continued walking downstairs.

As soon as she walked out of the school building, she was stopped by someone.

“Chu Luo.”
