Chapter 31: The Dragon in the Picture Who Failed Many Failures
"The girl sells paintings, and it's pitiful to see her. ”
"Ten taels of silver, it's too much. ”
"Generally, a painting can be sold for a hundred dollars, and it is already made by a well-known painter. ”
"Little girl, you come in first, let everyone see, what kind of painting is it, although everyone is here to beg for a living, but there are many big families in the city here, and there are guests who want to see it?"
A group of people chattered and asked the girl to come in, so that she could not get out in the rain.
Chen Long stood behind the people, also looking at the excitement, the other party is not an ordinary person, may not be a human being, then the question is, what does she want to do if she wants to sell paintings?
I can't figure out why for the time being, but he was also thinking about it in his mind, and slowly he had a guess.
"This painting is worth a thousand gold, and ten taels are just for people of insight to buy. ”
The girl held an umbrella and stood on tiptoe, trying not to let the rain wet the hem of her skirt, but she did not leave the rain curtain, looking at everyone, looking a little depressed, but it seemed that there was no one to see anything.
The people present are all ordinary people, and I am afraid that no one will be able to buy this painting, and it is impossible to see through her.
"Tell me, what are your paintings?"
"Yes, even if someone likes it, they have to look at the painting. ”
"It's impossible to buy a pair of words that you don't know what it is for ten taels of silver because of your words. ”
The peddlers and pawns present and the down-and-out scholars said one after another, wanting to see the painting of ten taels of silver, what the hell is going on.
"This painting is a priceless treasure, if anyone can guess what the painting is, ten taels of silver sold, if no one guesses, it is worth a thousand gold. ”
When the girl heard the words of the crowd, she spoke again, suggesting that there might be some mystery in the painting, or that the painting itself was a masterpiece of ancient monuments.
This situation has made more people curious, what is it?
The girl didn't come in, she stood stubbornly outside, holding an umbrella, standing on tiptoe, standing at the door, letting the rain flow, she held an oil-paper umbrella, stood in the rain, holding a painting, wearing a long white dress, if you look at it from a distance, the girl is like a fairy in the rain.
However, if you come to the front and look closely, if there are not many people here, I am afraid that you will think that evil ghosts are infested, and the pale and bloodless face makes people feel infiltrated when they look at it.
Bang!
Hearing the girl's words, everyone was not only curious, but also exploded.
Most of the people present were not wealthy, and they were not rich people, even scholars, who did not have much floating wealth without obtaining official positions.
I'm afraid they have to weigh their own lives, let alone buy a painting for ten taels of silver, and they don't know what the painting is, they already feel expensive.
And right now, the girl's words shocked everyone even more, and if she didn't know what was painted inside, it was worth a thousand gold.
Not to mention a thousand gold, a thousand taels of silver, it's scary enough, one tael of gold is worth ten taels of silver, one tael of silver is worth a hundred dollars, and a thousand gold is a million dollars.
Not to mention buying paintings, even the many people present have never seen so much money so far.
"Girl, come in and speak. ”
"Come in and see, the shopkeeper has an invitation, maybe he likes it, so I'll give you ten taels of silver to buy it." ”
"As for the words of the daughter, don't say it, just kidding, it can't be true. ”
There are tavern guys, seeing that this place is so lively, they are clever and energetic, and they are greeting, and everyone comes in and says, standing at the door to hide from the rain, so what is the business done if you don't drink tea, drink and eat?
"Does anyone know what is painted in this painting?"
The girl was not moved, but looked up at the sky, saw that the rain had slowed down, and got up in a hurry, looking at her appearance, maybe if no one could guess it, then she would hold the painting and leave.
"Oh, little girl, why are you so ignorant?"
"Let you come in, everyone will look at the paintings, and you will know. ”
"I guess it's a beauty picture. ”
"It must be a landscape, it must be a landscape painting. ”
"Flowers and birds, they must be flowers and birds. ”
"Character ......"
All kinds of speculation was hilarious, Chen Long stood aside, silent, he probably guessed what was in the painting.
There is dragon energy, that must have something to do with the dragon, and there is demonic energy, the dragon does not become a demon, naturally there is a demon, and in the end intermittently, I am afraid that it is because of the impact of the catastrophe, there is a dragon in this painting, and it is a dragon genus that failed to cross the catastrophe, and more than once failed to turn into a dragon.
With this guess, Chen Long had a smile on his face, and it was not what he wanted to do when he met the dragon and did not touch it, not to mention what the girl said.
Besides, what is the relationship between the girl in front of her and the dragon in the painting?
Or, what is the girl's intention?
He couldn't guess it.
The bustling sound of people overshadowed the sound of the rain outside, and the rain also had a tendency to get smaller and smaller, Chen Long had never seen this girl when he visited the market before, and her appearance had a lot to do with the rain.
Looking at her expression, listening to everyone's words, a little frustrated, and a little anxious, I thought, if the rain stops, I'm afraid this girl will disappear without a trace.
In the stories of the supernatural, it is very common to see this kind of scene, obviously there is a beautiful woman, or turn a corner, and the person disappears.
Or the girl in front of him, Chen Long guessed that the other party was afraid that as long as the rain stopped, the girl would disappear in front of everyone.
Of course, at present, the people of the City God Temple are not vegetarians, and if the girl has something to do and has a plan, I am afraid that she will not be able to disappear out of thin air in front of everyone, causing the people to be uneasy.
"No one knows what is in the painting, but who is willing to pay a thousand dollars to buy a painting?"
The girl's anxious expression could not be faked, and when she heard everyone's discussions, she did not say what was in the painting, so she decided to settle for the second best thing and sell the painting for a thousand dollars.
"Little girl, you open it first, I'll take a look, if the painting is really good, it's hard to say, a hundred taels is not a problem. ”
There was a shopkeeper in a brocade robe who came out of it, with this jade pendant hanging on his waist and a wrench in his hand, and he looked like a rich man.
No one knew what was in the painting, and seeing this, the unprovoked mist slowly spread from the doorway, as if it was raining and foggy, and it was about to cover the door of the tavern where everyone was sheltering from the rain.
Seeing this situation, needless to say, the girl saw that no one was sincere enough to buy the painting and was ready to leave.
"Haha, girl, I know what's in the painting!"
Chen Long laughed out loud and walked out of the crowd, "Moreover, I also happen to have ten taels of silver, I have money, you have paintings, you can buy your paintings." ”
In any case, even if it is a dragon that has failed to survive in the painting, it is still a demon, and he should know a lot about supernatural things.
exchanging his wealth for information about supernatural things did not feel anything wrong with Chen Long, who grew up under the information explosion.
In later generations, movies will be shown to collect tickets, and novels will be subscribed and rewarded, and information is also a valuable thing, "It just so happens that you have an umbrella again, and seeing that the rain is getting smaller, let's take a step to speak." ”
Chen Long's eyes were running, looking at the girl transparently, with a smile on his face that seemed to see through everything, beckoning the girl, and walking towards the rain outside.
