The downtown is crowded with people, and the various toys on the stalls dazzle Xiao Xue. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Info When passing by a stall, Xiao Han involuntarily stopped, and his eyes scanned the many strange things on the stall.

This kind of stall, which is very common in Guyang Town, is a gambling game that gambles on treasure with sight and luck. Maybe you spend a penny to buy something here, and it may become a treasure worth dozens of taels in an instant. Or maybe you bought something for a few dozen taels, but it was actually not worth a dime.

Xiao Han has a good background and has seen a lot of strange treasures, after his father lost his wealth due to a leg injury, he did not become a delicate son who could not bear poverty, but tried every means to raise money for his father's treatment. At that time, the first way he thought of was to come here to gamble on luck, and with his extraordinary insight, he succeeded three times in succession with a small amount of money and obtained a lot of money. Since then, he has frequently gone back and forth, but he has delayed his martial arts practice, so that he has become a laughing stock of ridicule from outsiders.

Although he stopped, Xiao Han simply glanced at the items on the stall, and did not plan to try his luck, because he had more important things to do on this trip.

Just when Xiao Han was about to pull Xiao Xue away, the stall owner hurriedly stopped him: "Hey! Ay! Ay! Don't go, little boy, I have good things here! ”

When Xiao Han heard this, he stopped curiously, only to see the stall owner take out a blue-white jade bead from his arms, which looked the same size as the sugar gourd in Xiao Xue's hand. At first glance, he thought it was just an ordinary jade bead ornament, after all, its condition was not very good, and it was impossible to say that it was still the one that fell from a large object. But the moment he took the jade bead from the stall owner's hand, he immediately overturned his previous thoughts, because the moment he took over, the jade bead seemed to exude a cool breath, driving away the heat in his body and calming his body and mind.

Holding the jade bead in his hand, Xiao Han's face was expressionless, he knew the value of this jade bead. Even though he had seen a lot of jade, he had only felt the moist properties of high-grade jade, and it was the first time he had seen such an item that could cool the body and mind. Especially in this hot summer, such an item is even more precious.

Seeing Xiao Han silent, the stall owner said even more proudly: "How is it, it's a good thing, right?" This treasure was accidentally found yesterday in a rock outside of town. At that time, it was completely wrapped in a layer of stone, and I accidentally touched the stone when I was resting, and found that it had a cooling effect, and immediately decided that there must be a mystery inside. After I smashed the stone, I found a magical jade bead that was natural, created by ghosts and gods, and had cool properties. Originally, I wanted to keep it for myself, but I was short of money recently, so I had to look for someone destined to go through it. I saw that Gongzi's heavenly court was full and the earth pavilion was round, and he must be the son of an ordinary family, so I decided to transfer it to Gongzi. ”

Although he knew that the other party was bragging, he really wanted to buy this jade bead, so he said lightly: "How to bid?"

Seeing that Xiao Han was interested in buying, the other party smiled and said, "I think I have a fate with my son, so it's five taels of silver!"

Seeing that the other party opened his mouth is five taels, Xiao Han was secretly angry in his heart, and he was destined for me? Seeing that I am dressed in fine clothes today, they think that I can be deceived and have a relationship with my money! However, he also secretly celebrated Xin, and today he changed into the new clothes that his mother sewed for him earlier, so that the other party mistakenly thought that he was a rich and noble son, otherwise it was very likely that he would miss this jade bead.

However, in the barren place of Guyang Town, very few people are willing to spend five taels of silver to buy jade beads of this texture. Even though it has cool properties, people are more willing to have five taels of silver, after all, five taels of silver is not a small amount, which can be seen from Xiao Jianfeng's income as a member of the three major families.

"Five taels of silver? A high-grade jade bead of the same size is only three or four silver, right? For this quality of jade, you also need five taels? ”

Xiao Han's pretended to be light-hearted, which made the other party a little disappointed, but he immediately said firmly: "Four taels, no less!" The characteristics of this jade bead are enough to make up for its lack of quality! If you're not happy to buy it, go ahead! ”

Seeing that the other party's attitude was already obvious, Xiao Han knew that this price was no longer negotiable. "Four taels is four taels!"

Now that the two sides have negotiated, Xiao Han is ready to pay. But at this time, he realized that he only had one tael or four dollars, plus ten taels from his second uncle, although it was enough to pay the bill, but the next sword casting was likely to be insufficient. After all, my father introduced himself to the other party as a fuse, and borrowed ten taels of silver from the second uncle, so I am afraid that the cost of forging a sword is likely to be close to ten taels. In this way, if you pay the bill, you are afraid that it will be difficult to forge a sword.

After several struggles, Xiao Han still decided to buy the jade beads first. However, in order to increase the insurance money for forging the sword, he pointed out some cheap items of more value on the stall, which were converted into some silver taels. In the end, Xiao Han paid the price of three taels and two dollars in exchange for the magical blue-white jade bead with a cooling effect.

On the west street of Donghua District, Xiao Han held Xiao Xue with one hand and played with the blue and white jade beads that had just arrived with the other. Before trading, Xiao Han had not carefully observed this jade bead, but at this time, he looked carefully and found that there were four waves printed on the jade bead. On top and bottom of this continuous wave pattern, there were also two peculiar characters printed, as far as he could know, in the history of the Tianwu Empire, there had never been such characters. Moreover, these character patterns are not carved, but printed, more like heaven and earth.

Just when Xiao Han was observing the jade bead in detail, Xiao Xue gave him a moment and said in surprise: "Brother, it's so comfortable to hold your hand, the whole person has become cold!"

"Cool?" Xiao Han looked suspicious, not understanding why Xiao Xue said this.

Xiao Xue nodded and said, "Yes! From the moment you grabbed me, I felt a little cool, and it wasn't hot! ”

Listening to the meaning of Xiao Xue's words, the coolness brought by the jade bead can not only drive away the irritability on his body, but also pass it on to others. At this moment, Xiao Han was even more convinced that the jade bead in front of him was not a mortal thing, and he had picked up a big treasure this time. After a moment of excitement, he settled down, put the jade beads in his empty money bag, and kept them close to him.

Calming down, Xiao Han began to look for the sword-forging shop called "Forging Fengping" on both sides of the street.

Although Guyang Town is an inconspicuous small place on the border of the Western Regions of the Empire, it is the only town within a radius of 100 miles. So, there are quite a few residents living here. Because it was abandoned by the Empire, there were no walls built here. And the inhabitants who live here are built house after house. Therefore, the streets are relatively complicated, like a chessboard, even Xiao Han, who grew up here, is at a loss for a while.

Just as Xiao Han and the others were running around, looking for a target, several laughing teenagers suddenly came from the front. One of the fourteen or fifteen-year-old boys with handsome faces pointed at Xiao Han and sneered, "Yo! Isn't this the eldest son of the Cold Sword White Fox? Why, do you also come out to have fun? And with a little girl! ”

This person's name is Lin Qingfeng, and he is a son of the Lin family, one of the three major families in Guyang Town. His father is the head of the Lin family, Lin Zhenshan. Lin Qingfeng has relied on his father's high position since he was a child, and often bullied the children of the same sect, and was insidious and domineering. The young people beside him were also the children of the Lin family, and they were accepted as younger brothers because they succumbed to his obscenity.

In the face of Lin Qingfeng's unprovoked provocation, Xiao Han didn't care too much. Over the years, he has been ridiculed by others, and he has long been accustomed to such words.

Seeing that Xiao Han did not react to his words, Lin Qingfeng's face immediately became gloomy. Seeing this, a disciple of the Lin family on the side immediately shouted, "Xiao Han! Didn't you hear Young Master Lin ask you? ”

A sudden shout caused the surrounding pedestrians to stop and look at each other. Under this wild shout, Xiao Xue was also startled, and hurriedly hid behind Xiao Han.

Seeing this, Xiao Han touched Xiao Xue's head and said, "Don't be afraid! There's my brother here! ”

"What's the use of having you, what kind of green onion are you? As far as I know, you're only in the Blood Refining Realm until now! And the lowest on our side is the Meat Refining Realm, and any person can easily defeat you. Lin Qingfeng smiled and said, "But don't worry, Young Master Ben is in a good mood today, and he won't do anything to you, on the contrary, I will help you." Young Master Ben knows that you have been working hard to earn money for your father all these years. Well, if you're willing to get under my crotch, I'll give you five taels of silver!" What do you think? ”

"No, I don't need your money!" In the face of such a provocation that was close to dignity, even though Xiao Han was tenacious, he couldn't help but frown, and his voice was cold. If it had been before, he might have chosen to turn around and walk away. But now, he is no longer the Blood Refining Realm kid who can be bullied by anyone.
