The old man quickly explained: "Girl, I have been here just to wait for someone! This carpenter's shop is just a place for me to stay. I really have nothing to do with your assassination. I don't even know those people."

Jiang Tangxi frowned, thinking about the old man's words. Her eyes kept scanning the surroundings to see if there was anything unusual.

She looked at the old man again, still feeling somewhat skeptical.

"Okay, then tell me, how can we find the Sky Tourmaline? You must know some clues." Jiang Tangxi said.

The old man scratched his head and said, "Girl, I really don't know where it is. I have been looking for it for hundreds of years!"

Jiang Tangxi stood in the carpenter's shop, feeling as if she had been struck by lightning. The old man's words "hundreds of years" kept echoing in her mind.

Her eyes widened, her face full of disbelief, and her body trembled slightly involuntarily.

"What? Hundreds of years? You've lived for hundreds of years? This is too scary! You're simply an old monster!" Jiang Tangxi said as he unconsciously took a small step back.

The old man looked at Jiang Tangxi's panic-stricken appearance, shook his head slightly, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

He slowly took the dagger in his hand and gently placed it on the table next to him.

"Girl, don't panic. Come, sit down and have a cup of tea, and we'll chat slowly." As the old man spoke, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation.

She hesitated for a moment, but finally walked slowly to the table and sat down.

The old man picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for Jiang Tangxi, then poured himself a cup and took a sip.

"Girl, you are not from this world, are you?" the old man said slowly.

Jiang Tangxi took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"Old monster, to be honest, I... I don't know how I ended up here. I used to live in a completely different place, and then suddenly I ended up here. I can't believe it myself."

The old man nodded slightly, "I knew that you were able to come here because of the fluctuation of the Nine Heavens Magic Jade..."

Jiang Tangxi asked quickly: "Do you know if I can go back? Also, what exactly is the Nine Heavens Magic Jade?"

The old man smiled and said, "This magical jade has an extraordinary origin. It is said to have once been a treasure of a demon god and contains powerful power. And you may be the one chosen by it."

Jiang Tangxi was stunned when she heard this. She had never expected that her time travel would be related to a piece of jade.

She always thought it would be that jade hairpin!

"Old monster, why are you telling me this?" Jiang Tangxi asked puzzledly.

The old man looked at Jiang Tangxi, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. "I've already said it, I think you and I are destined to be together!"

As he spoke, the old man took out a emerald green jade sword from the side.

"This long sword was also left by the demon god. It has a special ability. When it is not needed, it can turn into a jade bracelet. If you wear it, it may save your life at a critical moment."

Jiang Tangxi carefully took the sword and examined it carefully. She could feel a mysterious power contained in the sword.

Very friendly, just like an old friend!

"Thank you." Jiang Tangxi said sincerely.

The old man waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. This is fate between us. In addition, I have prepared a personal pet for you. It can stay by your side to protect you."

Before they knew it, Jiang Tangxi had been chatting with the old man for more than two hours.

When she walked out of the carpenter's shop, she felt much more relaxed, as if a huge weight had been lifted off her heart.

Xiao Cui was very confused. Why did Jiang Tangxi become happy after she woke up after just sleeping for a while?

A puzzled look appeared on her face.

"Princess, how is the thing you want to make going?" Xiao Cui asked.

Jiang Tangxi was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "I didn't see anyone. Let's try our luck next time."

So the two of them quickly got on the carriage.

Jiang Tangxi was sitting in the carriage on the way back home, playing with the little purple hamster in her hands.

The little hamster's round body twisted in her palm, its small eyes sparkling with lively light, and its wings behind it flapped gently from time to time, as if ready to fly at any time. Its furry purple hair felt very soft to the touch, and the snow-white part in front was like a small ball, so cute that Jiang Tangxi's heart almost melted.

Jiang Tangxi couldn't help but gently poked the hamster's belly, and the hamster immediately squeaked, the sound was crisp and full of energy.

Jiang Tangxi was amused by it and chuckled.

How can it be a treasure? It's so cute, isn't it a pet?

The carriage moved slowly forward, but Jiang Tangxi's thoughts involuntarily returned to the old man in the carpenter shop.

She just couldn't understand how a person could live for hundreds of years. It was simply incredible!

She began to recall the conversation with the old monster!

The old man said that the unusual movement of the Jiuxiao Huanyu caused the distortion of space, which allowed her to come to this world.

But why did Jiuxiao Huanyu choose her?

And there is the Sky Tourmaline. The old woman said it could help her return to her original world, but its whereabouts have been unknown for hundreds of years. So where should she go to find it?

Jiang Tangxi felt as if he was trapped in a huge mystery.

Just as Jiang Tangxi fell into deep thought, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Jiang Tangxi didn't sit firmly and almost fell down in the car. She steadied herself and had a bad feeling in her heart.

She gently pulled open the curtains and saw Jiang Jiayun standing outside the carriage.

Jiang Jiayun's face looked very bad, and her gloomy expression seemed to be able to drip water.

But she still tried to force a smile and said to Jiang Tangxi: "Sister, long time no see. We two sisters haven't had a good chat for a long time. Sister, could you please take a seat in my carriage so that we can have a good chat?"

Jiang Tangxi refused without hesitation: "Humph, Jiang Jiayun, are you out of your mind? I seem to remember that we just met? Besides, there's nothing to talk about with you."

The smile on Jiang Jiayun's face froze slightly, but soon recovered. She quickly stepped forward and said anxiously, "Sister, don't be so heartless. We are sisters after all. There are some things we can talk about. I promise that I have absolutely no ill intentions this time. I just want to talk to you about some things in the palace."

Jiang Tangxi didn't believe her at all. She crossed her arms and sneered, "What happened in the palace? I think you are trying to plot against me again. Didn't you and Xiao Yuxi hurt me badly enough before?"
