Chapter 299: Suspicious
was pulled by Morey like this, and Zhu Shuai reacted.
I want to find my mother's mentality, and I am too eager.
So much so that even the most basic thinking has been lost in this mentality.
I and this old woman have only met once, and I haven't even figured out her details.
Just rashly showed her her jade pendant, in case she was the eyeliner of the Lotus Pavilion, wouldn't she fall for her scheme?
Thinking of this, Zhu Shuai quickly broke out in a cold sweat.
After pretending to look for a long time in the ring, Zhu Shuai raised his head and said with some disappointment: "Old man, my piece of glazed jade fell at home, and I just didn't bring it with me." ”
"It's okay, if you really need my help, you can bring it to me later!"
The old woman's face was still full of kindness, without any unusual expression.
"Then thank you in advance, old man!"
Zhu Shuai hurriedly got up and saluted.
"Since you don't like the things above me, the things in this cave, you can take a look at them casually, if there is one that enters your eyes, I can give you a discount!"
The old woman stretched out her hand and casually pointed to the various jade products on the wooden shelves.
"Then you're welcome!"
Zhu Shuai paced slowly, looking in front of those wooden shelves.
The jade stones in the cave, both in terms of materials and refining techniques, are far better than those jade ornaments sold above.
Anything here, if you take it out, I'm afraid it can be sold for a good price.
I didn't expect that this old woman didn't look good, but the things she stored were so precious.
This also made Zhu Shuai believe what she said before.
However, what made Zhu Shuai feel strange was that although there were many kinds of items on these wooden shelves, from the perspective of refining techniques, they did not seem to be made by the same person.
Moreover, the categories of these jade stones are also diverse, and there is no trace to be traced at all.
This made Zhu Shuai very puzzled.
It stands to reason that each store has a special supplier, and most of the things provided by these suppliers are made by a fixed number of people.
But everything here is very different.
Forget it, let's not think about these things for now.
Zhu Shuai selected a few bracelets with a more elegant temperament from them and let the old woman pack them.
After paying, Zhu Shuai and Morey, accompanied by the old woman, returned to the top of the store.
"If you need me in the future, remember to come back to me!"
Before leaving, the old woman spoke again.
"Old man, don't worry, I will definitely come back to disturb you in the future!"
Zhu Shuai said a word, and then walked out of the store with Morey.
At this time, the sky outside had already darkened.
Zhu Shuai and Morey went straight back to the inn where they lived.
However, what made Zhu Shuai puzzled was that the two men in strong suits who had been following him before were not in the inn at the moment.
Could it be that they came to this Southern Holy City and had other missions?
Back in his room, Morey closed the door tightly, and then came to Zhu Shuai's side.
"Don't you think that old woman just now is very strange?"
Morey said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"I also think it's strange, if you hadn't reminded me, I would have almost shown her that jade pendant!"
Zhu Shuai also said with some palpitations.
If you weren't looking for your mother, how could you make such a low-level mistake.
"Yes, I can't feel the slightest elemental fluctuation from that old woman's body, and it stands to reason that she is not a cultivator. ”
"But she said that in the Southern Holy City, there is a fight every day because of those precious jade, since the atmosphere is so tense, how dare she take the two of us to her underground cave, isn't she afraid that we will take it?"
"Also, as far as I know, the reputation of the Lotus Pavilion in the Southern Continent is still relatively good, why did she deliberately lead us and aim at the Lotus Pavilion?"
"Besides, because of the matter of the Immortal Spirit Tree, all the people from the various branches of the Lotus Pavilion have been transferred to the Polar Swamp, and the disciples of the Lotus Pavilion in this Southern Holy City should also be temporarily leaving now, she is deliberately scaring us. ”
"What's more, when you said that you had that glass jade, I clearly saw a trace of greed in her eyes, this old woman, it's not simple!"
Morey's analysis is very detailed.
"I didn't expect you to be able to see things so thoroughly, which is a little different from the previous you!"
After listening to Morey's words, Zhu Shuai felt that Morey seemed to be a different person.
In the past, he was casual and careless, but now, he is also very attentive to those details.
"Don't be kidding, get down to business with you!"
Zhu Shuai's words made Morey's face flush slightly.
"I also realized that the jade ornaments in her underground cave looked like they were made by different people, and the refining methods were very different. ”
"Also, those jade ornaments, which are also sold in other jade shops, are not at all like she said, she doesn't dare to take them out, she is exaggerating the facts. ”
Zhu Shuai put the few bracelets he bought in front of him and said in a low voice.
"Yes, there must be something wrong with this old woman, let's stay away from her in the future!"
Morey touched his chest with some palpitations.
The relationship between the Southern Continent is complicated, and if you are not careful, it will lead to trouble, and with the strength of Zhu Shuai and Morey, it is not outstanding in the Southern Continent.
If they did meet someone who wanted to persecute them, the two of them would be very dangerous.
"No, I think I'll have to go to him!"
But Zhu Shuai's answer was much beyond Morey's expectations.
"Why, we all know that something is wrong with her, and we still go to her, what if we fall for it?"
Morey said anxiously.
"Since she is playing with us, then we will plan it, maybe, we can get some more useful information, we just need to be vigilant!"
Zhu Shuai said slowly.
There are not many people who know the secret of their jade pendant, and now, it is not easy to meet a well-informed person, Zhu Shuai doesn't want to give up easily.
Perhaps, he will get something about his mother from the mouth of this old woman.
"Hey, you're still not going to give up, okay then, when are you going to go to that little shop again? ”
Morey really has no way to take Zhu Shuai.
"Strike while the iron is hot, let's go again tomorrow!"
Zhu Shuai's eyes narrowed slightly.
Just as Zhu Shuai and Morey were talking in a low voice, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps at the staircase of the inn.
Zhu Shuai immediately made a silent movement, and his soul power poured out.
Sure enough, the two men in strong suits who had followed him all the way have now returned to the inn.
Which force do these two big men belong to, and why do they keep pestering themselves and Morey?
Is it the spies sent by the He family to follow him, or the people from the Lotus Pavilion that the old woman said?
However, it seems that the two of them don't have the slightest idea of making a move on themselves and Morey, is their task just to spy on themselves?
Also, the two of them had been following him closely before, but now, it had been a while since he and Morey returned to the inn, and the two of them had returned.
What did the two of them do during this time?
Zhu Shuai felt that as the truth of the glazed jade gradually surfaced, he was now surrounded by dangers.
This glazed jade is really a little scary.
Zhu Shuai and Morey didn't dare to continue to discuss anything, and after the two men in strong suits rested, Zhu Shuai and Morey also began to take turns to rest.
Although they were extremely nervous, the whole night passed, and the two men in strong suits did not make a move on Zhu Shuai and Morey.
After dawn the next day, Zhu Shuai and Morey got up early and cleaned up.
After that, Zhu Shuai and Morey walked towards the streets of the Southern Holy City together.
After Zhu Shuai and Morey left the inn, Zhu Shuai was keenly aware that the two men in strong suits also quickly followed.
What is the purpose of these two people, they follow themselves closely and don't do anything.
This gave Zhu Shuai a headache.
However, it was still important to get down to business, and Zhu Shuai didn't care about the two of them, and pretended not to notice it and wandered around the street.
After constantly patrolling in front of those stalls selling jade, Zhu Shuai finally found a small jade pendant in front of a stall.
This piece of jade is pale green, crystal clear throughout, and it doesn't look ordinary.
The most important thing is that this piece of jade is very similar to glazed jade in appearance.
Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Shuai bought the pendant.
After that, Zhu Shuai walked towards the old woman's shop yesterday.
Zhu Shuai just wanted to use this fake glass jade to get something out of the old woman's mouth.
In the early morning in the Southern Holy City, the flow of people was not very large, and the two of them came to the door of the old woman's shop very easily.
However, what surprised Zhu Shuai was that the other stores were now open, but the old woman's shop was still tightly closed.
Zhu Shuai and Morey had no choice but to find a teahouse opposite the shop, and while tasting tea, they waited for the old woman to open the door.
And the two men in strong suits also stopped not far away.
Soon, the morning was over.
But the old woman's shop door still didn't move at all.
Could it be that the old woman is not going to open for business today?
Then how can I find him for news!
Zhu Shuai couldn't wait any longer, stood up, came to the door of the store, and knocked on the door gently.
After knocking like this, Zhu Shuai found that the door of the store was only gently closed and not locked.
What's going on?
Zhu Shuai pushed open the door and walked in cautiously with Morey.
Inside the shop, it was dark, and the early morning sunlight was scattered along the gaps on both sides, which made the shop slightly vibrant.
However, the old woman was not in the store at this time, and the whole small shop was very quiet.
"Old man!"
Zhu Shuai shouted to the small room behind the curtain, but still did not respond.
"Let's go, go down and have a look!"
Zhu Shuai simply pulled Morey, entered the room, and began to descend.
Soon, the two arrived at the underground cave yesterday, but the scene in front of them made Zhu Shuai and Morey open their mouths wide at the same time!
