Lin Xiangye inherited the jade pendant passed down through his family, and opened it one fine afternoon.
Strolling through the mountains and drinking water from a spirit spring, Lin Xiangye wiped his mouth with satisfaction.
“I am the chosen one!”
Lin Xiangye swiftly cleared out all the rare treasures in the pendant's space, then sighed happily.
“Thanks, nature, for the generous gift.”
After working hard all day to earn a grand total of five copper coins, Xie Yu finally returned home after dark and found the place completely bare. He broke down on the spot.
He was already this poor, and someone still stole from him! How outrageous!
For several days after that, Xie Yu waited for the thief, but never caught them. He let his guard down. Then, after another trip to sell wild vegetables, he returned to find that the little courtyard had been ransacked again.
Xie Yu collapsed, unable to get up. It felt no different from being hunted down by an enemy.
After they happened to meet one day...
Lin Xiangye shouted excitedly, “There's a gorgeous guy living inside my jade pendant!”
Xie Yu grabbed the wooden stick behind the door. “Thief! Take this!”
Lin Xiangye gradually realized that the jade pendant didn't lead to a separate space, but to another time.
The jade pendant had miraculously connected him to a small mountain village five hundred years in the past.
Xie Yu, who suffered from consumption, couldn't go with Lin Xiangye to the modern era for treatment, and Lin Xiangye couldn't bring medicine back to the past.
As Xie Yu's health grew worse by the day, Lin Xiangye was frantic with worry.
During the final pursuit by the soldiers, with nowhere left to run, Xie Yu stood where Lin Xiangye often appeared without warning.
He looked at the empty air and smiled helplessly.
“Lin Xiangye, I can't go where you are. From now on, don't think of me anymore.”
The jade pendant broke apart for no reason, and a shard cut a bloody line across Lin Xiangye's chest.
As Lin Xiangye held the two broken pieces in his palm and tried to find Xie Yu as he had before, the pendant stopped working.
