To country folks, the things in these boxes might be good things that they would never see in their lives.
However, the golden hair pins and bright agates could not attract Little Ah Yu.
Little Ah Yu only liked the fist-sized silver jade bead the most.
Everyone would definitely like such a huge bead when it was brought to the village.
It would be sturdier than a mudball, right?
[That’s an East Pearl. It’s a pearl produced in the east sea. You can’t take it to roll on the ground.]
Little Ah Yu’s tone was especially regretful. “Oh.”
When she held the bead in her hand, she felt that it was so heavy that she almost lost her grip.
“What mission is this?”
[Put it aside. I have an idea.]
Little Ah Yu followed Meatball’s instructions and placed the East Pearl on the Myriad Spirit Soil.
Meatball spent one point to buy a small hammer from the mall.
He started knocking.
After knocking for a long time, the bead was still the same.
As this concerned the mission item, Meatball could not use its energy to split it open. It was mainly afraid that if it did not control it well, it would directly blast the bead into foam.
Little Ah Yu was eager to try. “Are we going to knock it open? I want to play too!”
[…Alright.]
In any case, there was a night’s time. It was good to let Ah Yu train her arm strength.
If she drank another cup of purified Myriad Spirit Holy Water in the morning, her body would naturally recover.
Little Ah Yu took the hammer from Meatball’s claws and began to work hard.
She quickly realized that when Meatball knocked, the East Pearl did not move at all. When she knocked, the East Pearl directly sank into the soil.
The soft soil could not withstand such a knock.
Little Ah Yu rummaged through the spatial pocket again and found a small iron plate that she had put in at some point. There was coincidentally a small groove on the plate. She placed the East Pearl there and knocked on it hard.
However, the bead was actually harder than she had imagined.
The stubborn Little Ah Yu gritted her teeth and knocked all night. In the end, the surface of the East Pearl was full of holes.
It did not look like it had cracked at all.
After feeding Ah Yu water for the tenth time, Meatball had no choice but to stop Little Ah Yu to prevent her from over exerting herself.
[Stop knocking. This thing is specially made and not so easy to open. Go and look for your Auntie. She might have a way.]
Wang Aibao’s presence in Old man Wang’s house was very low. She usually did not speak much. After dinner, she hid in the house to embroider or silently helped her family do some housework.
However, Meatball knew that Wang Aibao would go to the kitchen from time to time not to help cook, but to help set up the firewood.
She was extremely strong. When the others from the Wang Family were not paying attention, she would directly break open the wood with her hands.
She could easily break wood as thick as an arm.
A wooden stake as thick as a thigh could be broken into two with the strength of her two arms.
Perhaps, it was best to leave the mission of knocking open the East Pearl to Wang Aibao.
At dawn, Little Ah Yu washed up briefly and went to look for Wang Aibao.
Little Ah Yu was outside Wang Aibao’s room. She quietly approached and pressed her ear against the door to hear the commotion inside.
Only then did she shout softly at the door—
“Little Aunt, are you awake?”
Wang Aibao was sewing in the room when she heard this and went to open the door.
She saw Little Ah Yu outside the door. “Ah Yu, what’s wrong?”
“Little Aunt, I want to ask you for a favor. Help me crack this thing open.”
Little Ah Yu handed the hand behind her to the front. It was the East Pearl wrapped in a handkerchief. In her other hand was the special small hammer she had exchanged from the shop.
