Threat.

Naked threats.

I did vaguely feel that this small stone was unusual before, but if Zhou Chen said it, he really didn't know what was so strange about this small stone; Therefore, for this small stone that is easy to get, Zhou Chen does not have a strong idea, at best, he likes it a little. Facing the old man who loved this stone so much, Zhou Chen really wanted to give it to him; But I never expected this old man to make a threat, as if for the sake of this small stone, human life can be trampled on at will.

He didn't care how precious the little stone in his hand was, and he didn't have the idea of keeping it for himself because the old man showed that the little stone was extremely precious, the only thing he cared about was that the old man actually threatened him.

His own life has never been Zhou Chen's decision, so what he hates most is being threatened.

Zhou Chen was furious, completely angry.

Looking at the old man's grim eyes and cold expression, a sneer appeared at the corner of Zhou Chen's mouth, and under the old man's gaze, he slowly put the small stone into his pocket like a demonstration, and said in an indifferent tone: "If you don't sell it, you won't sell it no matter how much you give." ”

The old man's sunken eyes stared at Zhou Chen fiercely and viciously, full of strong killing intent, and said in a cold voice: "Boy, for a stone, it would be a big loss to lose a small life." ”

"Heh......" Zhou Chen sneered, his face was calm, and he said lightly: "If it is for the sake of a small life and loses the backbone, then the loss is really big!" ”

Hearing this, the old man was stunned, and now he really understands that the other party does not want to sit on the ground and raise the price, but because he is angry because of his disrespectful words. I felt a bit of self-resentment in my heart, and his fierce expression disappeared with a smile, and he apologized: "Little brother, I'm really sorry, the old man was rude just now; It's just that this stone is extremely important to the old man, so in a fit of anger, he said threatening words. Little brother, the old man is here to apologize to you. ”

Faced with the 180-degree change in the old man's attitude, Zhou Chen's face was full of astonishment, it seemed that this little stone was really a priceless treasure.

Since the other party has apologized for his previous words and deeds, and most of the anger in Zhou Chen's heart has disappeared, perhaps this thing is extremely important to the old man, so he is eager and disrespectful. Zhou Chen didn't want to continue to embarrass the other party, thought about it, and said, "It's not impossible to give it to you, old man, can you tell me what this little stone is?" ”

"This ......" the old man looked embarrassed, as if there was something unspeakable; But after all, this thing is in the hands of the other party, for fear of dissatisfaction with the other party, and it will not be able to get it; After thinking about it carefully, this kind of thing is useless to ordinary people anyway, so he slowly said, "Okay, the old man told you." ”

Speaking, at this time, there were guests who came to the antique shop to buy things, and there were many people here, and it was not easy to talk in detail, so the old man said: "Little brother, let's go to a café not far away to talk in detail." ”

"Okay."

Zhou Chen replied and followed the old man out of the antique shop.

Watching everyone leave, the owner of the antique shop was so grief-stricken that he even regretted his intestines. As soon as the kid entered the door, he showed a layman who didn't know anything, and he didn't even know Zhao Shuzhi's pen and ink, but the boss didn't expect that the other party was a master of picking up leaks, and it was estimated that he noticed the small stone as soon as he entered the door, and deliberately said that Zhao Shuzhi's words were fake to confuse himself.

Nowadays, people are really better than the other, and fools can't live.

But after all, I gave the money, I have already traded, and there is no way to regret it.

Zhou Chen, who left the antique shop, would definitely cry and laugh if he knew that the boss thought of him like this. To be honest, as a Zhou Jiajun in the past, I did play some antiques, and I also had some research on antiques. But the point is that this small stone is not an antique at all, and it was only useful to the old man, so he hit it. Otherwise, it is estimated that you will never meet someone who knows what this kind of thing is for.

After leaving the antique shop, he called Qing Wei, who was buying gadgets, and introduced him to the old man beside him, and the few people walked towards a café not far away.

When they arrived at the café, the three of them entered the closest position inside, and two big men who seemed to be bodyguards sat at the next table.

ordered coffee and sent the waiter away, the old man didn't delay, leaned forward, lowered his voice, and said straight to the point: "Little brother, do you believe that there are really dragons in the world?" ”

Dragon?

It's a dragon again.

Zhou Chen's face was full of surprise, it had been less than a day since he came to Yueyang, and he had already heard people talk about dragons twice.

"The ancients used dragons as a diagram, and there should be dragons in the world!" Zhou Chen smiled, casually perfunctory, and asked: "Old man, what I want to ask is what is wonderful about this stone, why do you always ask the prime minister as soon as you open your mouth if you believe that there is a dragon in the world!" ”

At this time, the waiter came with coffee, and the old man leaned back, with a smile on his face, and did not speak. When the waiter put down the coffee and left, the old man took a sip of the coffee before continuing to speak: "It's not a secret, if the little brother doesn't believe that there is a dragon in the world, then he will definitely think that what the old man said next is a lie, and the old man really doesn't know how to say the strangeness of the stone on the little brother." ”

"Oh? Could it be that this stone has something to do with dragons? Zhou Chen's face was full of surprise, and he couldn't help asking.

"That's right." The old man replied in a firm tone and continued: "This stone is called the Dragon's Blood Stone, and it is conceived from the dragon's essence blood. Of course, the specific gestation is not so simple, it must be soaked in a large amount of dragon blood for hundreds of years, and the dragon blood cannot be left during the soaking period; Otherwise, it would not be possible to completely absorb the essence of the dragon's blood. The dragon's blood stone is pregnant with the dragon's essence and blood, the dragon's nature is brutal and the character is hard, this dragon's blood stone has the effect of warding off evil spirits, and for people with weak physique, wearing this thing can thrive. The old man's newborn grandson is too weak; Therefore, the old man searched for dragon's blood stone everywhere, but he searched for a long time, but he didn't find it. ”

Used to ward off evil spirits?

There are too many things in the world that can be used to ward off evil spirits, and if this is the case, then why didn't the old man go to the temple to ask for a talisman? According to the identity of the old man, it should not be a problem to go to the temple to ask for an amulet. The Dharma instruments conceived by the monks of the temple are sure to ensure that the baby will thrive and even keep him safe for the rest of his life. There's no need to look for Dragon's Blood Stone! This thing is hard to find, not to mention, dragons are ferocious by nature, if they are protected by dragon blood, they can indeed ensure that they are strong; But the personality may also be affected and become murderous.

What parent in the world wants to see their children turn into murderous villains?

The old man must be lying.

"Old man, why don't you go to the temple and ask for a Dharma weapon for a monk to protect your grandson? Several monks of Guangji Temple have profound Buddhism, and the abbot of Shaolin Temple is also boundless Buddhism. ”

Zhou Chen had a smile on his face and unceremoniously exposed the old man's lies.

Being exposed to his face, the old man was stunned, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, the smile on his face froze, he smiled awkwardly, and said in a cold tone: "Little brother, it seems that you just want to learn the secret of this dragon's blood stone from the old man's mouth, and you don't mean to give it away!" Are you kidding my old man? ”
