Chapter 206: The Jade Pendant is Glowing
Speaking of old immortality, Xu Chen thought of the middle-aged shopkeeper hiding in Qinrenfang.
Early the morning of the second day after returning from the teacher, Xu Chen took the two young Che Jian Cong to this abrupt courtyard again.
The door of the store was hidden, and the morning light was sprinkled on the piles of old utensils, and Xu Chen was in the mood to take a good look at this weird-looking antique shop.
didn't rush into the door, this is Xu Chen's usual style.
"Go in!" Xu Chen kicked the tiger on the side.
The little white tiger covered in yellow fuel tilted his head and glared at Xu Chen, his expression was very vivid.
"Look at what!" Xu Chen glared back and threatened viciously: "Do you want to eat meat this month?"
The little tiger and the little turtle were very weird, completely contrary to the common sense of the cultivation world that Xu Chen knew.
According to those classics, in order for a demon beast to grow, it is similar to a monk, and it must ingest the energy of spiritual energy, the monk relies on spirit stones and pills, and the demon beast relies on devouring the flesh and blood of spiritual objects or other demon beasts.
But the little tiger and the little turtle are very abnormal, since they came out of the eggshell, they have been growing in the outside world, and they eat completely ordinary meat, only more than half a year, the tiger has grown to two meters long, and the turtle is even more amazing, and the size has almost caught up with the turtle boat.
Raising a tiger painted yellow is not eye-catching in Chang'an City, but it is necessary to raise a turtle that is more than ten meters long and more than three meters high......
It's not an ordinary turtle, but the kind of dragon turtle with a dragon head and a long neck!
In order to stop being ostentatious, Xu Chen had to ask Zhou Kang and Zheng Tai to bring the little turtle back to Ryukyu, and in the sea, the little turtle could have more fun.
According to the latest information available, in addition to being larger, the baby turtle is faster in the water than the new model of scissor sailboat, and its intelligence level has skyrocketed, and it can already communicate with people by graffiti on the beach.
As long as it is allowed to travel between Ryukyu and Chang'an a few times, Xu Chen can use it as a carrier pigeon.
In addition, the combat effectiveness of the little tiger and the little turtle is also increasing day by day, although they can't release those cool spells, but they far exceed the teenagers by relying on ** strength alone.
Even if Xuanwu doesn't say it this time, Xu Chen doesn't plan to give up the little tiger as a powerful thug, in the future in Chang'an City, Xu Chen feels that he should not ride a horse at all, how energetic is riding a tiger?
The little tiger's intelligence is also growing rapidly, and it may be contaminated with some of the nature of oviparous animals, and the little tiger naturally has a sense of closeness to Xu Chen, the first person he saw after breaking the shell.
However, Xu Chen attributed this sense of closeness to the desire for his own blood, and he basically hid when he was at home, and he wouldn't look at it when he didn't need it.
Their old man has never tasted his own blood so he can be indifferent, these two little beasts have grown up drinking their own blood, sharp teeth and claws, if they rub a little skin, then the fun will be great!
Little Tiger, who was completely ignorant of the cold reception he received, reluctantly stepped into the antique shop.
The middle-aged shopkeeper was still lying behind the counter, and he began to be confused early in the morning, and the projection of a little tiger appeared in his half-open and half-closed eyes.
His eyes slowly opened.
In this Chang'an City, there is no need for him to release his divine sense, plus the small courtyard where he lives is a formation, Xu Chen stood outside for a long time, and the middle-aged shopkeeper really didn't notice it.
As the middle-aged shopkeeper's gaze became more and more solemn, Xu Chen walked in slowly.
"Forehead......" thought for a while, and Xu Chen, who didn't find the opening remarks, had to greet with a smile: "Hello senior!"
The middle-aged shopkeeper only rolled his eyes and looked at him for a moment, and then continued to stare at the little tiger.
The embarrassed Xu Chen rubbed his nose, and didn't sell it, and directly took out the black tortoise shell from the enlarged iron box.
This tortoise shell is also unusual, Xu Chen deliberately exposed it to the air of Chang'an last night, and found that there was no other movement except for a little dullness on the surface, unlike other spiritual objects, which began to decompose quickly as soon as they were exposed.
The middle-aged shopkeeper stared at the tortoise shell for a long time, and finally muttered: "It turned out to be them, why did I say it is so familiar......
The middle-aged shopkeeper would not doubt his eyesight, he recognized the real body of the little tiger's white tiger, but it was because he recognized it that he couldn't believe it.
How is it possible for their descendants to survive in the outside world?
And this one in front of me is obviously still in its infancy and growing, what the hell is this?
Even if you can survive, you can still grow in the outside world, could it be that you slept last night and woke up that the world has changed back?
Could it be that all these 10,000 years have been a dream?
There are absurd thoughts in my head......
Xu Chen naturally didn't know how much impact the little tiger had brought to this mysterious middle-aged shopkeeper, and seeing that this person was still outside the wandering things, Xu Chen had no choice but to look left and right.
The shop is very small, the things are very messy, it looks tattered, and the sense of age is very sufficient, but it is all covered with dust, for example, the corner is a bronze in the shape of Shang Ding, and the ash inside is at least three fingers thick.
How dare you make the guests who walk in believe that the things used to hold ash in this corner are really antiquities from the Shang Dynasty?
Which of the high-grade antique shops is not beautifully packaged? The box used to hold the antiques is also an antique, and the value may be higher than the contents inside!
How can there be a dustpan to assemble the Ding, although it is likely that this dustpan was also rolled by hand from some ancient tribe......
"No wonder business is so bad!" Xu Chen couldn't help but scold.
"Senior, why don't I help you decorate?"
The middle-aged shopkeeper didn't even bother to go back, so he fell down again and began to close his eyes and pretend to sleep.
Seeing this, Xu Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the guard in his heart was also relaxed.
It seems that the little tiger and this tortoise shell played a role, and the other party slapped himself to death before he came up.
In that case, of course, you have to climb the pole!
Xu Chen picked up a pottery bowl on the old wooden shelf, looked at the pattern composed of lines on it, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "These are all national treasures! I saw photos in history books in my previous life, and all the things in the museum are imitations, and ordinary people can't see the real thing in their lifetime!"
"Good thing! senior, I bought it for ten taels, what do you think?"
The seniors ignored him.
"Senior, this Ding is not bad, I'll take it back to make soup for five taels of silver?"
The seniors still ignored him.
"!' Yue Wang dove shallow, since the first use of the squeak'......" Xu Chen was stunned, and then put the bronze sword into his pocket, and then took out a large gold cake and slapped it on the counter, domineering: "Ten taels of gold, I bought it!"
The middle-aged shopkeeper still didn't want to take care of him, just a broken sword, and he didn't remember when and where he rolled it up, let alone give money, even if he was stolen by a thief one day, he wouldn't care, although he had never been patronized by a thief over the years.
However, just as Xu Chen's hand slapped on the counter, several inconspicuous black stones on the counter suddenly began to vibrate......
Xu Chen was only slightly startled, but the middle-aged shopkeeper suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Xu Chen.
Then, the stone on the table shook more and more violently, almost as if it was about to jump.
Immediately, it was almost impossible to distinguish the front and back, and the sleeves of the middle-aged shopkeeper and Xu Chen's chest began to glow with a light blue light.
Xu Chen was shocked, and the middle-aged shopkeeper said even more sharply: "Take it out!"
With a wave of his hand, all the door panels were closed, but the teenagers outside did not move, and they probably didn't notice it.
Xu Chen's mind was racing, he gritted his teeth and tore off the small cloth bag hanging around his neck and threw it in front of the middle-aged shopkeeper.
The middle-aged shopkeeper quickly took out the three jade pendants, and the blue light on the jade pendants became more and more abundant.
Then, in Xu Chen's surprised but abrupt gaze, the middle-aged shopkeeper took out another jade pendant from his sleeve......
On the counter, the black stone danced happily, like an elf in the dark night.
The middle-aged shopkeeper kept fiddling with the four jade pendants, but no matter how he arranged them, the four jade pendants only glowed, and there were no other changes.
When the four jade pendants were shining, Xu Chen carefully observed the crisscrossing red lines in the jade pendants, the lines of these jade pendants were not so obvious at all, and even the color was much lighter than now.
"How could it be...... How could there be no reaction?" the middle-aged shopkeeper's face was full of anxiety and anger.
10,000 years of waiting!
"Why is there no response!"
After the shock, Xu Chen no longer focused on the four jade pendants, but turned his attention to the black stones whose beating frequency was decreasing.
Hearing the middle-aged shopkeeper's angry words, Xu Chen interjected: "Because there is still one piece missing!"
"What did you say?" the middle-aged shopkeeper glared at Xu Chen.
"There are a total of five of these jade pendants, and I think it's because of the lack of one, so there is no response. Xu Chen regained his composure.
Looking at him like this, he obviously didn't know that there were five jade pendants, and he didn't know when he got this jade pendant, but it shouldn't be too early.
Monk Huineng said that in the past few hundred years, he had collected five jade pendants three times, since all five pieces were in Huineng, presumably the time when the middle-aged shopkeeper found this jade pendant should be after Huineng collected all the jade pendants for the last time, otherwise with the unfathomable strength of the middle-aged shopkeeper, it is impossible for Huineng, a new generation master, to snatch something from him.
Xu Chen guessed right, the middle-aged shopkeeper did only get this jade pendant a few decades ago, and he didn't even wait for the five pieces to be collected and experimented many times like Huineng, he had already seen the extraordinaryness of the jade pendant.
It's just that before, the middle-aged shopkeeper never knew that there were other jade pendants, and he had studied day and night for decades, and all means had been used, and he couldn't even destroy this jade pendant, which strengthened his confidence in exploration.
But what shocked Xu Chen was those few black stones, what the hell was this, and how could it cause Yu Pei's reaction?
Xu Chen has also used a lot of methods to study in the past few years, but he can't destroy the jade pendant, let alone make him react.
At present, the middle-aged shopkeeper only cares about fiddling with the jade pendant, but he turns a blind eye to the black stone that causes the change of the jade pendant, and it seems that the other party has already discovered the inducing effect of the black stone on the jade pendant.
The presence of black stones in the middle-aged shopkeeper is another proof.
"Senior, shouldn't you explain these stones?"
"Heh, you're still in the mood to ask this, don't you think it's a dangerous thing to discover my secret?"
