Chapter 7: A Penny Stumps a Hero

After a two-hour drive, we returned to Majiang County, I was worried about Uncle Tian's injury, and asked him if he wanted to go to the hospital, Uncle Tian waved his hand indifferently, saying that this wound was not enough.

He was born in the military, and his body was as hard as an iron man, so I didn't insist any longer, and under his guidance, I drove into an old house on the outskirts of the county.

This old house was handed down by Uncle Tian's ancestors, and he has been running out on tasks all these years, and he rarely has the opportunity to go home, so the furnishings at home are very old, and the yard is full of ash.

I hurriedly boiled medicine for myself to drink, so I temporarily stayed at Uncle Tian's house, took out the prescription given by my second uncle, and prepared to catch the medicine according to the prescription.

But when I opened the prescription, I was dumbfounded again.

The prescriptions prescribed by the second uncle are not at all according to common sense, what black dog bones, the blood of the old cat's lower palace, cinnabar, eagle ashes, bezoar, brown gall and other objects, most of which I have never even heard of.

I found Uncle Tian and asked him what he thought of this prescription? Uncle Tian snorted and said that he didn't understand pharmacology at all, but the prescription prescribed by my second uncle himself would not be wrong, so let me follow the prescription.

My face was full of bitterness, and when I came to Majiang County for the first time, I didn't know where to catch these medicines, so I begged Uncle Tian to accompany me out.

Uncle Tian promised well at the time, but when he turned around, he received a phone call.

He said "um" a few times on the other end of the phone, put down the phone, looked at me very apologetically, and said, "I'm sorry, that call just now came from the organization, I received a new task, and I have to go back to the bureau quickly." ”

As for what this organization does, Uncle Tian didn't say, but only told me that there was an order from above that he must return to the team within 24 hours, so he didn't have time to stay with me.

Before leaving, he took out the key and threw it to me, so that I could live in peace and hang the key on the eaves when I wanted to leave.

I was at a loss, feeling quite lost in my heart, but after packing my luggage, Uncle Tian found me, took out a stack of yellowed old pages from my pocket, handed them to me, and solemnly admonished, "These pages record some methods of practicing qi for cultivators, although they are relatively superficial, but they are useful to you. ”

I hurriedly excused myself, and hurriedly said that I didn't want such a valuable thing.

Uncle Tian shook his head and said, "This thing was given to me by your second uncle back then, it was originally your Lin family's own thing, and now I handed it over to you, which is also reasonable, followed by that thing in your body, you are destined to embark on the path of a cultivator, with these qi conduction methods, you can avoid many detours." ”

I took the page in a daze, and hurriedly asked, "This thing was given to you by my second uncle?" Then why hasn't he ever shown it to me......?"

Uncle Tian smiled, shook his head and said, "Your old man is a great man, he placed you like this, naturally he has his hard work, if it weren't for the special situation now, I wouldn't have made the decision to give you this method privately." By the way, there's one more thing I have to tell you......"

Uncle Tian's words changed, his tone suddenly became stern, and he said word by word, "The God Devouring Gu on your body was born in the Nine Shadows Polar Region, which is a place that even gods and demons are afraid of, from now on, you must strictly keep it a secret, and you must never tell the second person about the God Devouring Gu on your body, so as not to invite trouble, do you know?"

I was taken aback by Uncle Tian's serious expression, subconsciously shrunk my neck, and half-jokingly, "Didn't you just say that my old man is a big man? Who would dare to touch me?"

Uncle Tian laughed and slapped my head with his hand, "The rivers and lakes are unpredictable, who can say clearly? In short, you have to remember that your second uncle and I will not harm you, you will remember what you say, do you understand?"

I nodded heavily, "Hmm!"

"Okay!" Seeing that I agreed, Uncle Tian's tense face relaxed, turned his head and left.

As soon as he left, I packed up my things, went out to take a taxi, and went to the nearest pharmacy to pick up medicine.

The prescription that my second uncle prescribed to me was really strange, and I even found several pharmacies, and finally got the materials together, but when it was time to pay, I felt in my pocket and realized how difficult it was for me.

When I went out, my mother secretly stuffed me with a few hundred dollars, but it was not enough.

I had just joined the work, I didn't have any savings on hand, and I thought that there was a sick second uncle to take care of at home, so I couldn't bear this cheek, so I continued to call the housekeeper to ask for money, and when I was thinking about what to do, I touched the pendant that I snatched from the mandrill when I fled down the mountain that day.

My heart moved, and I walked into the shadows, and took out the pendant to look closely.

The surface of this pendant is plated with a layer of gold, and there is a blue gemstone embedded in it, which does not look big, but it is brilliant and very aura.

I thought to myself, if this pendant was real, it should be worth a lot of money, so I went to a jewelry store down the street.

Generally, this kind of jewelry store sells jewelry and also does a part-time recycling business.

The greeter at the door saw that I was dressed ordinary, and didn't bother to greet me, so I went to the counter to have a look.

I stubbornly leaned in and asked her if she would accept the jewelry?

The beautiful lady greeted the guest without even raising her eyelids, and said with a fake look, "Sir, we only accept high-end jewelry here......

My face darkened, and my heart said that you are not just a janitor, why do dogs look down on people? I was angry, and I was about to go out, but after thinking about it, I had to try it, so I took out the pendant, handed it to her, and said, "Can you take a look?"

The beautiful lady took the jewelry, grabbed it in her hand and looked at it, and suddenly her eyes widened, telling me to wait.

She walked into the inner hall with my pendant and seemed to have gone to a professional appraiser.

I was bored, so I leaned against the door and waited.

In less than half a cigarette, the welcome lady appeared again, at this time there was already some charm on her face, as if she had just knocked **, her eyes looked at me much more charming, and her voice was soft, "Sir, our manager wants to invite you to the inner hall." ”

I was a little impatient, and said how much can I exchange for that thing, you quickly say a price, you can change it, and if you can't change it, return it to me immediately.

At this time, a middle-aged man with myopic glasses and a rich face walked out of the lobby of the jewelry store, with a big back and meticulous combing, and approached me with a smile on his face and said, "Sir, please don't worry, let's drink saliva first, let's have a good chat." ”

When I went to the inner hall, this manager-like person took the initiative to serve me tea, and introduced his surname Wang, and asked me what I should call him?

I just wanted to scrape together enough money to catch the medicine as soon as possible, and I didn't think about it deeply, so I asked him, "Manager Wang, how much is that pendant worth?"

Manager Wang thought for a while, and directly said something that made my heart tremble,

"The pendant given by Mr. Lin is very rare, it is a fine gemstone jade pendant, according to the market price, we plan to buy it at a price of 80,000 yuan. ”
