Chapter 176: The Willow Tree and the Chest
"This ......"
Chen Feng had obvious shock and panic on his face, obviously the box was shaking, which was beyond his expectations.
"Brother Chen, what's wrong?"
Su Chen was also puzzled, could it be that this box was still famous?
"Do you have something special in here?"
Chen Feng looked at Su Chen, but Su Chen shook his head, he also has Xiangxiang and Da Bai in this store, Xiang Xiang is a ghost, but the credit knife man has not dealt with ghosts, as for Da Bai, this strange beast, the strange beast refers to some of his special talents, but it is still an animal in essence.
"That's weird, wait a minute. ”
Chen Feng put his hand on the box and rubbed it for a while before the box finally regained its calm.
"No problem, you can go in. ”
Su Chen walked in first, while Chen Feng followed, but after entering the store, Chen Feng's gaze changed.
"What is this?"
Chen Feng's gaze fell on the willow sapling placed on the counter, and the moment he saw the willow sapling, his eyes showed a look of awe, and he finally knew why his box was shaking.
The change in Chen Feng's gaze and expression could not escape Su Chen's attention, Su Chen looked at the willow sapling, and then at Chen Feng, not understanding why Chen Feng showed such an expression to the willow sapling.
Even if Chen Feng saw that this willow sapling was not simple, no matter how simple it was, it was just a sapling, even if it had already cultivated into a spirit monster in its previous life, it was still very weak now.
"Brother Su, where did you get this?"
Chen Feng gestured to Su Chen with his eyes, and Su Chen did not hide it and replied truthfully: "The mother tree of this willow sapling was split by lightning, it should be a failure of the crossing, this sapling is the hope left by the mother tree, and the mother tree entrusts me to help it take care of the sapling." ”
"Will it fail?"
After listening to Su Chen's answer, Chen Feng muttered in a low voice, and when Su Chen heard Chen Feng's words, he frowned and asked, "What does Brother Chen mean by this?"
"Brother Su, let me tell you, this willow sapling is very evil, I won't hide it from you, my box has been passed down from generation to generation in our family, and it has a history of almost a thousand years in my generation, it can be said to be a magic weapon, but the emotion that this box passed to me just now is that it is afraid of this willow tree. ”
"Are you afraid of this willow tree in this box?"
Su Chen's gaze fell on the willow sapling again, it seemed that he still underestimated this willow sapling, this willow sapling still had secrets that he didn't know.
"God, you're here. ”
Qin Yanxi upstairs heard the movement, and at this moment he also walked to the staircase, Chen Feng glanced at Qin Yanxi, and quickly withdrew his gaze.
"Well, here comes a friend, Brother Chen Feng Chen, who is a man with a knife on credit. ”
Hearing Su Chen's introduction, Qin Yanxi's face showed curiosity, there was no mention of the major forces and industries in the metaphysical world in the Duren Sutra, but she had still heard of the credit knife person, because she had also experienced it when she was a child.
At that time, there was also a knife man in the house, and the knife man sold sickles, and told his neighbors that when the house price rose to more than 100,000 yuan, he would come to collect money.
At that time, the housing prices in the capital were just over 10,000 yuan, and many people did not believe that they would rise so high.
"Brother Chen, do you guys really make predictions? ”
Qin Yanxi was very curious, but after Chen Feng heard Qin Yanxi's words, he shook his head, "We don't predict, those are just inferences because we have traveled south and north, and we have seen more." ”
"Brother Chen, since you don't know how to prophesy, how did your father make such an agreement?"
Su Chen interjected, Chen Feng's father's agreement, if it wasn't inferred, he wouldn't believe it, because who would have nothing to do to make such a promise, it's like waiting for the sun to rise in the west one day, it's too unreliable.
"That's because of the box. ”
Chen Feng didn't hide it, explained the situation to Su Chen and Qin Yanxi, and also unveiled the mystery about the credit knife person.
For Chen Feng, it was actually a helpless move for their family to become a family of credit swordsmen, and it all had to start from their ancestors' generation.
The ancestors of the Chen family lived in a small mountain village, which was very closed, but they also avoided the scourge of war, but one year there was a great drought, the village had no harvest, the river at the entrance of the village also dried up, and the animals on the mountain were sunburned.
Many villagers were starved to death, and the ancestors of the Chen family couldn't survive, but at this time an old man came to the village, this old man was also a knife man on credit, he gave the ancestors of the Chen family a lot of food on credit, and the promise was that if the river flowed backwards one day, then the ancestors of the Chen family would follow him.
The ancestors of the Chen family agreed, and survived for a month by relying on the water and food left by the old man, and a month later, it rained heavily, and the drought ended, and the ancestors of the Chen family did not take the old man's words to heart.
However, half a year later, there was a sudden earthquake in the mountains, which changed the topography of the river and reversed the river.
The river flowed backwards, and the old man appeared in the small mountain village again, and the ancestors of the Chen family also kept their promise to follow the old man out of the mountain village, inherited the mantle of the old man, and became a credit knife man.
After waiting for the old man to pass away, the ancestors of the Chen family inherited the two boxes of the old man and realized that it turned out that the credit knife man was a curse.
The credit knife man has been trading with people all his life, but the bargaining chips of the transaction are not what they say, but from that one box.
"My father will make such an agreement with Luo Zhijie because the box gave my father instructions at that time, and every time the agreement is completed, my father can get benefits from the box, this box is not allowed to be opened on weekdays, and I can only open it when it takes the initiative to communicate with me. ”
After listening to Chen Feng's words, Su Chen and Qin Yanxi both set their eyes on the box, is this box so weird?
"Brother Su, when I first met you, I actually wanted to make a deal for you, this is the message that the box passed on to me, but we have rules for credit knife people, and we must have the other party to speak first. ”
Chen Feng's words made Su Chen embarrassed, he didn't expect Chen Feng to target him.
"Brother Chen means that this box wants you to make a deal with me?"
"Hmm. ”
"Unfortunately, I don't have anything I want to trade. ”
Su Chen smiled, but Chen Feng's expression became serious, "Brother Su, I don't know if I want to tell you or not, I'm afraid that if I tell you, you won't say that." ”
"Tell me what? Brother Chen might as well say it if he has something to say. ”
Hearing Chen Feng's words, Su Chen was aroused by curiosity.
Chen Feng looked at Su Chen with a serious expression, "The instructions given to me by the box are that I can trade with you any of your requirements. ”
Su Chen was stunned for a moment, and then said half-jokingly: "Any request, if I ask you to kill Zhang Tianshi of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, you can accept this request?"
"Yes. ”
Su Chen: ......
Looking at Chen Feng's serious expression, Su Chen was sure that Chen Feng was not joking, which made his expression become serious, and he continued to ask, "Can you do this?"
"My strength is definitely not as good as Zhang Tianshi of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, but as long as the box agrees, there will be a way to do it, but how high the conditions are, the greater the price you need to pay. ”
After listening to Chen Feng's words, Su Chen finally knew why Chen Feng said that he didn't want to tell himself, this temptation was too great.
There are no restrictions on any request, and who can refuse such conditions?
Even if there is nothing you want to do now and you can't do it, as long as this seed is planted in the bottom of your heart, it will take root one day sooner or later.
"It's really hard to refuse. ”
After half a ring, Su Chen said this, and the look in his eyes at the box was the same as looking at a demon.
The devil relies on seducing people, and then enters the circle he designed step by step.
And just as Su Chen and Chen Feng were talking, the willow sapling on the counter suddenly changed, and one of the only two buds of the willow sapling suddenly skyrocketed, turning into a wicker stick, and it was directly whipped towards the box.
This scene surprised everyone.
However, when the wicker was about to fall, the box also bloomed with light, forming an aperture to protect itself in the middle, and the wicker was drawn on the aperture, which directly deformed the aperture, but it was not able to destroy the aperture.
Su Chen looked back at the willow sapling, and found that the roots under the sapling were smaller again, and they continued to get smaller.
When the roots of the tree were missing three times at once, the wicker fell again, this time, the aperture was directly removed, but the box also changed, and it opened a gap by itself, and the wicker directly drilled into the gap.
The box was closed again, shaking constantly, this was a competition with the wicker, and the three of Su Chen, Qin Yanxi and Chen Feng who were present were dumbfounded, and they didn't understand what was going on.
"Squeak!"
Dabai, who was originally on the second floor, was lying at the staircase at the moment, seeing the wicker and the box below, this guy showed a frightened look in his eyes, and the next moment he didn't want to think about it and rushed to the balcony, and then disappeared like a smoke.
None of the three Su Chen present spoke, just looking at the scene in front of them, but three seconds later, the box opened again, and the wicker also retreated.
Syllable!
The wicker left the box, and the box closed instantly, but the wicker did not return to its original state, but bloomed in mid-air with a bright light, and the next moment, a green bark slowly fell from the sky.
Su Chen subconsciously stretched out his hand to take the bark, and a line of words appeared on the bark, and when he saw this line of words, Su Chen's expression became extremely strange.
"Great God, what's wrong?"
When Qin Yanxi saw Su Chen's expression, she also leaned her head over curiously, but the next moment, her expression became the same as Su Chen's.
