However, when Qin Hai focused his eyes again, the old man in the portrait was still the same as before. There had not been any strange occurrences.
Was there something wrong with my eyes just now? Qin Hai was secretly alarmed. He did not tell Shang Dajun about the strange situation he saw earlier, lest they make a fuss out of it.
However, at this time, the dragon talisman that had been lying on the incense table suddenly released a golden light.
The faces of Shang Dajun and the monks changed. For a moment, they did not know what had happened. This was because according to the records of the Shang family, the dragon talisman had never experienced such a change.
Before they could regain their wits, an even more resplendent golden light suddenly drilled out from Qin Hai"s body. A giant golden dragon suddenly drilled out from Qin Hai"s chest, circled him three times, and then suddenly rushed onto the incense table.
Qin Hai instinctively took a step back. However, that dragon was too fast and before he could retreat, the golden dragon had already slammed into his chest. As for the dragon talisman, it had vanished into thin air.
Following the disappearance of the colossal dragon, the golden rays of light in the secret chamber also disappeared. Qin Hai and his people looked at each other in dismay. They did not know what had happened.
Qin Hai suddenly pulled down his collar and looked at his chest. To his surprise, there was a dragon tattoo on his chest. It looked exactly the same as the golden dragon on the dragon talisman, even the size was the same.
"What"s going on?" Qin Hai was stunned for a moment before he turned to ask Shang Dajun.
How could Shang Dajun know what was going on? It was as if he was a monk, and all of them were stupefied by what they were seeing.
The dragon talisman that the Shang Family had kept for hundreds of years had suddenly disappeared. This was something that had never happened before. Their minds were in a state of complete chaos and they were completely at a loss at what to do.
Although Qin Hai was a bit confused, he was clear on one thing. The Shang family"s dragon talisman must have been devoured by him. That thing was most likely already on his body. Looking at the stupefied expression on Shang Dajun"s face, he felt somewhat embarra.s.sed.
Eh, after "swallowing" someone"s family treasure, shouldn"t I give them some compensation?
Qin Hai scratched his head painfully. This situation was completely out of his expectations, and he was at a loss as to what to do.
However, before he could finish his words, a "pa" sound was heard. Suddenly, the portrait on the wall changed. The scroll underneath the scroll painting actually fell off. It fell onto the incense burner below, and along with it, a piece of paper.
Shocked, Shang Dajun hurried forward to take a look. Only then did he discover that there was another layer in the middle of the painting. This piece of paper had fallen out from the middle.
Although Qin Hai was somewhat curious, this portrait was drawn by the Shang Family"s ancestor. The items dropped from the portrait were definitely related to the secret of the Shang Family, so it would be inconvenient for him to go over and take a look.
However, not long after, after hesitating for a moment, Shang Dajun took the initiative to hand the piece of paper to him.
"Little Qin, take a look!"
This piece of paper was hidden in the Shang clan"s ancestor"s portrait, it was definitely related to the monk"s secret. As an outsider, how could he bear to see it, he did not take the piece of paper, but instead subconsciously said, "Shang Lao, this isn"t too good, is it?"
Shang Dajun understood what Qin Hai meant. However, he still stubbornly handed the paper over to Qin Hai and explained, "The contents are related to you."
Qin Hai was even more surprised. This piece of paper was unknown to even Shang Dajun. It must have been hidden in this portrait for who knows how many years. There might have been it for hundreds of years, so how could it be related to him!
With a puzzled expression, he took the piece of paper from Shang Dajun and started reading it.
"The dragon talisman has a spirit, the virtuous live within it, and you cannot control yourself!"
Looking at this line of calligraphy that was written in calligraphy as fast as flying dragons and dancing phoenixes, Qin Hai finally understood what Shang Dajun meant.
The old ancestor of the Shang family had long since realized that his descendants were unlikely to obtain the acknowledgement of the dragon talisman, which was why he gave an explanation in advance.
When Shang Dajun saw that Qin Hai had already looked at the piece of paper, he said, "It looks like the Dragon Symbol chose you. Little Qin, congratulations!"
Qin Hai was a bit embarra.s.sed as he said, "Elder Shang, this is too embarra.s.sing. The dragon talisman has always been your ancestral treasure, but now it has become mine."
Shang Dajun took the paper from Qin Hai"s hands. Although he felt somewhat regretful, at this point, he had no other choice. Besides, the Old Ancestor had also given him an order. As the current patriarch of the Shang family, he had to follow it.
Therefore, Shang Dajun retracted the bit of regret in his heart and said, "This is heaven"s will. Even the Old Ancestor predicted this. Thus, Little Qin, you don"t have to talk about this in the future." Since the dragon talisman has chosen you, then you will be the master of the dragon talisman and will have nothing to do with our Shang Clan. "
Qin Hai also knew that it was useless to decline now. The dragon talisman had already landed on his body. He couldn"t possibly dig out the tattoo on his chest and give it to the Shang family, so this matter was settled.
After a while, the three of them left the secret room and returned to the study through the stairs. After bidding farewell to Shang Daji, Qin Hai followed Shang Xuexin to her room. He immediately heard her sweet laughter. It seemed like Lin Qingya had really hit the nail on the head with her.
Qin Hai knocked on the door and said to Lin Qingya, "Qingya, it"s getting late. Let"s go back."
"Big brother Qin Hai, I"ve already spoken to elder sister Qing Ya. She"ll sleep with me tonight, you"re not allowed to steal her away!" Shang Tianxin wrapped her arms around Lin Qingya"s arm and pouted at Qin Hai, as if he was really going to s.n.a.t.c.h her away.
Lin Qingya smiled and said, "That"s right, I already said it to Tiantian. Why don"t you go back by yourself?"
Qin Hai didn"t know whether to laugh or cry. It seemed like he could only stay in Tianhai Pavilion by himself tonight. However, this was good as well. Ever since the dragon talisman had disappeared, Liu Ming felt that his body had changed a little. Thus, he decided to take a look at it at night.
After returning to Heavenly Sea Pavilion, Qin Hai first took a cold shower, then sat cross-legged on the bed bare-chested, his mind quickly sinking into his body.
Even though the three bolts of heavenly lightning had nearly destroyed his soul, the benefits of enduring them were great. For example, his muscles, bones, and flesh had clearly become much tougher and stronger than before, as well as his vital energy and blood. It could be seen that although these three lightning strikes had almost taken his life, and also tempered his body, his current body was clearly much stronger than before.
In addition to that, his meridians had also been tempered by the heavenly thunder. It was as if his meridians had turned from a small narrow pathway into a two-way road with six lanes of large, un.o.bstructed true essence galloping along it.
Feeling the changes in his body, Qin Hai couldn"t help but feel happy. It seemed like being struck by lightning wasn"t necessarily a bad thing. There were also many benefits! Chapter error, point this report (registered free)
