Chapter 35: A Treasure Unworthy of the Name
The lobby is very wide, with several large desks, each long desk that can accommodate people to walk through, and various things are placed on it.
There is a whole white bear skin spread on the case, a pile of white fox skins tied into several bunches placed aside, the most is a stack of mahogany boxes, long and short, large and small, full of more than a dozen long cases,
There are many glazed windows around the lobby, and the sunlight penetrates into the hall.
"This is the treasure trove of Temple Street?" This is very different from the treasure house imagined by Wang Jiangnan, the Wang family also has a treasure house, Wang Jiangnan and Zheng Suier also often go to Zheng Ji Treasure House to play, it is all buried deep underground, huge bluestone is the wall, it is dark on weekdays, they will first take out the night pearl to illuminate the road, the dark and confined space is very depressing, but thinking of that environment, Wang Jiangnan feels that it is what a treasure house looks like, what's going on here, how to say it, it has to be heavily guarded, right? But there were two ordinary guards outside and an old man in a room, and there was only an old and dizzy guard in the courtyard watching, Wang Jiangnan couldn't help but lower his expectations for the treasures.
Dugu Tianxing didn't understand the psychological changes of the little ladies, and was still proudly introduced,
"This is the snow white bear skin, you see the thick hair, crystal clear, whether it is made into a cushion or a mattress, sleeping on it is like a cloud, the white bear is unique to the snow field of the North Silent Snowfield, each one weighs three or four thousand pounds, upright two or three heads taller than the big bear, running like thunder, in order to get this whole bear skin, our wolf group has dispatched a team of people and horses to wait for half a month"
"This is the white fox, you touch, soft and smooth, made into a hat that is extravagant, more importantly, the white fox can prevent evil, you put it in the room, wrap you sleep sweet, how about it? Why don't you have one? Half the price, only 500 gold"
"It's ivory, mammoth tusk, thick and big enough, right? I tell you, mammoths are extinct in the world now, these two tusks were taken from the frozen mammoths dug out of the snow and ice, and they were all shocked when they dug up the mammoths, they were behemoths, and their bodies were taller than this house."
"Black Diamond Caviar is in the cold storage of the Temple Street Inn, there are four thousand-year-old ginseng here, you see if it is already human-shaped, that is the head and this leg, this ginseng is old, it must be tied with red silk, otherwise it will run"
These are rare, but with the net worth of the three little ladies, it is not unseen, even if they have not seen the same quality, at least they have seen ginseng for five hundred years, a small white bear skin, when Zheng Suier was admitted to Datang College, the ancestor of the Zheng family, her grandmother also gave a white fox fur hat, and both of them wore it in turn.
Zheng Xiu'er's father, Zheng Shirt Zheng Shisan, is a leather goods store, Zheng Ji leather goods store is the largest leather goods store in the Far East, what strange fur has not been seen, these are just better appearance, in the eyes of the little ladies, the quality is not so obvious, and even small and exquisite are more loved by them.
"You Temple Street won't just fool people with these goods, will you?" Wang Jiangnan couldn't help but shout.
"You guys? To put it mildly, there are no beads in the eyes," the Demon Wolf Tianxing rolled his eyes, "I tell you, I won't give him this white bear skin."
"Okay, knowing that these treasures are valuable, what about your Red Scaled Kunpeng Iron Feather? Take it out, let's open our eyes," Zheng Xiu'er couldn't help but tease.
"Dangdang" Dugu Tianxing picked up a palm-sized box piled up together, and no one noticed this ordinary mahogany box just now, it was the size of a rouge box used by the little ladies, and there was no special decoration.
"Everyone's eyes widen, don't blink, don't wander, a miracle is about to happen" Dugu Tianxing slowly opened the box.
Everyone became interested and watched with wide eyes.
The box opened, the red silk cushion was at the bottom, and there was a lonely piece of fish scales on it, yes, it was fish scales, the three little ladies were not delicate young ladies who did not go out of the door, nor were they a model of beauty without touching the spring water with both hands, that is, from Kyoto to the Far East, I had seen a lot of cooks cutting meat and killing fish, and naturally recognized that this was a fish scale that was a little larger than ordinary fish scales, even if it was big, it was also fish scales.
The three little ladies couldn't help but be disappointed, and they glanced at the Demon Wolf Tianxing with just one glance, and the meaning in their eyes was that it was nothing more than that.
Dugu Tianxing looked hurt, "You don't just have this little look, this is a red squid scale that can bring the dead back to life and cure all diseases?" ”
The three little ladies nodded, but the expression clearly said that you said yes, yes?
"Don't believe me? You touch it."
So the three little ladies lined up to touch the inconspicuous and even more inconspicuous scales.
Zheng Xiu'er didn't feel it, but Zheng Sui'er and Wang Jiangnan were surprised to feel the fluctuation of the spell, which was very warm, just like rubbing beautiful jade, fresh but not icy hands, and they also felt that their pores were about to open, and their whole body was full of comfort.
The two looked at each other, hesitated, and stroked again, and the comfortable feeling came back to their hearts again.
"How? Feel it, right? Treasures have their own beloved," Tianxing shuttled again, snapping and closing the wooden box.
Ignoring the suspicions of the three little ladies, he threw it on the table and picked up a long box again, which was very long, longer than the height of the three little ladies.
Dugu Tianxing opened the box on the case, and the bottom of the red silk was still laid inside, and something that looked like an old tree root was lying on it.
As soon as the box was opened, Wang Jiangnan felt a strong aura of magic, she looked at Zheng Sui'er, Zheng Sui'er also looked surprised, that look like seeing the teacher perform a new spell in the academy, serious, surprised and worshipped.
Dugu Tianxing took in the expressions of the two little ladies, and showed a look that I knew you would be surprised.
"Strong snake wood, a rare wood in the Greenland mainland, thousands of years of breeding and thousands of years of growth, surrounding the thick trunk buried in the ground for thousands of years condensed into such a point, you try to pick it up and see," Dugu Tianxing pouted Wang Jiangnan and tried to pick up the root, but Wang Jiangnan blushed and did not lift it.
Watching the little lady make a fool of herself, Dugu Tianxing sneered unscrupulously. "That's it, that's more than three hundred pounds,"
Isn't that heavier than a golden stone? The three little ladies looked at each other, and the three of them were unconvinced and lifted together again, and finally lifted the strong snake wood out of the box and set it on the ground, and the wood made a clanging sound when it touched the bluestone floor.
"What's the use of this piece of rotten wood?" Wang Jiangnan was embarrassed, so he naturally wanted to return it.
"It's very useful... The hateful Demon Wolf Tianxing continued to laugh shamefully, "I won't tell you"
"I've seen golden silk nanmu, thousand-year-old agarwood, which are comparable to gold and stone, but they are not so hard and heavy" Zheng Suier gave a fair evaluation
"Well, this thing is barely a treasure, but what about Kunpeng Tieyu?" Wang Jiangnan himself had the gem known as the Eye of the Northern Underworld given by Xiao Wu, so he shouted to see the last treasure, there was originally Xuanwu Zhiming's magic spear, but the big gun was brought back to Kyoto by Zhong Li.
So Dugu Tianxing put the snake wood into the box with one hand, covered it and pushed it aside, and took out a box again, which was also long, but only a foot long, and when he opened it, he saw that a black feather was lying on the red silk cloth.
The feathers are black, like iron arrows, and the whole feather is like iron casting, cold and refreshing.
The three little ladies looked at it, and they couldn't see any magic except for their appearance.
"Kunpeng Iron Feather, 100,000 years ago, the Northern Darkness Kunpeng soared in the silent snowfield, the road encountered a fierce beast, a fierce battle, the beast became a belly meal, but in the fierce fight, a few feathers fell off, most of them disappeared, and now only such a one was found, do you say that it is magical?"
What's so magical about this, there are many wild beasts in the ancient wilderness, there are countless fossil relics found on the mainland, what mammoth ivory belongs to pediatrics, think about what dragon bones, phoenix perching wood, a few years ago, there were rumors that the golden lion thunder tiger was found?
"Okay, you've seen all the treasures, shouldn't you rehearse tomorrow's exhibition?" Dugu Tianxing put the box in place and clapped his hands.
"Oh, so what are we going to do?" Wang Jiangnan couldn't hide his disappointed look.
"It's very simple, the white bear skin uses other methods, we have a good white fox fur fur hat, each of you brings one, let each of you come out with a white fox skin"
Dugu Tianxing took out three white fox fur hats from a few boxes, this finished product was different from the semi-finished product he saw just now, and the three little ladies couldn't take their eyes off it when they saw it.
The three hats are of different styles, but they are all furry and shiny.
Tianxing motioned for each of the three to choose one to put on, and the three little ladies looked at each other, each delighted.
Zheng Xiuer chose an ear-length round hat with shoulders, her temperament is dignified, and the whole look is down-to-earth and generous, and she is extravagant.
Zheng Sui'er chose the one with a back, and her charming cheeks looked charming and moving under the cover of the white fur hat.
Wang Jiangnan is a top with two fox tails hanging down in front, which is extremely playful.
The three little ladies looked at each other and couldn't put it down.
Dugu Tianxing looked at it with a smile, "Not bad, yes, I will choose a set of clothes later, and tomorrow's appearance like this will ensure that the audience is a sensation"
In addition to showing the white fox, Dugu Tianxing also asked the three little ladies to hold a few colorful eyes of the Northern Darkness with a jade plate, and carefully asked the three of them to walk with their legs staggered, just like cats.
Not to mention the three little ladies who are like flowers and jade take cat steps, walking in a row, like the willows swaying in the spring breeze, like the water with the ups and downs of the waves, which is very eye-catching.
At least the big bear and the dog looked straight at each other.
Dugu Tianxing held his chin and looked at it for a while, and suddenly said: "This is a bit monotonous, you have watched the song and dance drama, do you want to practice it yourself?" ”
The three hesitated, nodded and were at the mercy of Dugu Tianxing, but fortunately it was not complicated, and the three girls heard the narration and rehearsed according to their roles.
General toss, Jin Wuxi falls, and the sky turns dark.
Tianxing and the wolf group who were still lying in the corridor offered Jing Wuming a few words, and then took everyone back to the Temple Street Inn.
Looking at the three little ladies in the carriage, Tianxing was forced to promise to give them the three white fox fur hats for display.
On March 10, the weather was still fine.
Wang Jiangnan got up very early, rarely ranked first among the three little ladies, and walked around the house excitedly, Zheng Xiu'er, who was nested in the quilt, said weakly, "Yesterday I tossed for half a night, and this morning began to make people uneasy, so the auction will start in the afternoon."
"I, Wang Jiangnan, the goddess of fire of the Datang Academy will take the stage solemnly today, and the audience will be respected. . . ." Wang Jiangnan is prosperous.
"Thousands of people in the audience admire, that's watching you play treasure on stage" Zheng Sui'er sat up angrily and prepared to get up.
Wang Jiangnan immediately pounced, bursting into laughter.
Dugu Dadu Hu has rushed back to Bohai Longquan Mansion, where Andong Dadu Hufu is stationed, leaving Shan Sijing Deputy Dadu Hu to supervise the formation in Temple Street.
At breakfast, Wang Jiangnan was still in high spirits, and the single deputy Dadu Hu and Sima Lao Immortal also had a great appetite and ate more breakfast.
In the morning, Temple Street evacuated the stranded crowd in a tense and orderly manner, and sorted out and built a new layout at the old venue. Dugu Tianxing was personally in charge, and he was very busy.
The three little ladies were also prevented from going to the scene by the single deputy Dadu Hu, and were left by him to teach the military affairs, Dugu Dadu Hu promised the three little ladies to temporarily serve as the military record of the camp of the east of the army, and assisted in the record of joining the army.
After all, this is the original intention of their coming to the Far East to practice, all three of them listened to the training seriously, Sima Shenxian looked at the bamboo slips of the Tao Te Ching given by the Demon Wolf Tianxing on the side, it was very leisurely, and the third princess also held a tea cup and listened leisurely, interjecting two sentences from time to time.
Most of the single deputies acted in the style of the army, concise and to the point, and quickly explained, and let them experience the rest in specific affairs, and they began to drink tea freely.
Zheng Xiu'er arranged to eat, Zheng Sui'er diligently learned to make tea like the star, and Wang Jiangnan had nothing to do, bored watching Sima Immortal rubbing the ancient Tao Te Ching.
After a while, even the Sima Immortal couldn't help it, and asked kindly, "What does Little Lady Wang have to ask about the poor Dao?" ”
"Uhhh Wang Jiangnan period Ai Ai.
"Isn't this like the goddess of fire in the Datang Academy?" Shan Dadu Hu also began to tease his niece.
"Old fairy, you also saw the sister of the star yesterday, why do I always feel a little strange?" Wang Jiangnan sorted out his words and asked.
"Oh, Little Lady Wang sensed that something was wrong?"
"I had a strange feeling when I faced her, like... It's like the feeling of facing the dragon skeleton of the academy, and that feeling is terrifying," Wang Jiangnan said.
The two Zheng ladies also nodded and said that they also felt this way.
"The three little ladies have a very keen sense," Sima Lao Immortal closed the bamboo slip and sighed, "Dugu Tianxing is very alert, I gave him a side yesterday, and he reacted very quickly."
"This is not the other, the puppet turns into a stubborn stone, and there is a time for fate, and there is no time for many things" Wang Jiangnan recited "What does this sentence mean? ”
Sima Shenxian didn't answer, and looked at Zheng Sui'er, who was eager to try.
"The old fairy began to chant an old work, but deliberately changed the cold wind to the sea breeze, although it was a suitable situation, but it reminded that there were thieves on the temple street at sea, and the first sentence of the verse was also buckled with a stone, and by extension, it was an island, and the demon wolf Tianxing patrolled according to it, and it was quite rewarding, but unfortunately the second sentence was always in time, and there was nothing to do, and the little woman was dull, not very clear?"
"It is worthy of the top students of Datang Academy" Sima Shenxian learned the tone of the Demon Wolf Tianxing and praised, "The result of the poor Dao hexagram is Xun hexagram, which is intended to be in the southeast, and the southeast of Temple Street is Shaohai, so the poor Dao reminded the Tianxing monks to pay attention to the situation at sea, and finally made a small gain."
"The old immortal is clever," the single deputy Dadu Hu also praised, "Thinking that the Turkic Khanate lives deep inland, and is not accustomed to water, who knows that they are hiding on the sea, who would have expected it?" ”
"Tianxing is also a celestial and intelligent person, and I also pointed to it in my second sentence, and he immediately became enlightened?"
"Could it be that the old fairy's second sentence refers to his sister's matter?" Zheng Sui'er covered her mouth and asked, but Wang Jiangnan was still confused.
"There will be a time for fate, and there will be many things at all times," the single deputy Dadu also pondered.
"Don't be too curious, you feel like you've met an ancient dragon?" Sima Shenxian prompted, "Is there a legend about the dragon in the Far East?" ”
"No?" Shan Daduhu frowned and said, "It's just that three years ago, that Dugu Tianxing summoned the Blood Sculpture Ice Dragon, but the ice dragon disappeared later, and I also asked the Demon Wolf Tianxing curiously, and he was bypassed by him."
"There is a time for fate, and there is always a lot to do, could it be that the snow sculpture ice dragon? The old fairy said that the ice dragon did not exist in hit? Zheng Sui'er was surprised: "But this has nothing to do with his sister?" ”
"No, that woman is an ice dragon, right?" Wang Jiangnan called.
The crowd laughed and disagreed.
