It may not feel intuitive to say this, but if you convert it to about ten floors, you can know how tall it is. Flashing Dance and this is only a county town, not the capital of the imperial court.

The city wall stretches left and right and cannot be seen, and from a distance it looks like a fierce beast crawling on the ground, giving people an indescribable colossal pressure.

As the crowd walked into the city, Gu Qing looked around, and finally went to the clothing store to change his clothes first, and then found the inn to book an upper room.

Just as he was eating, suddenly there was a dispute between several people at the adjacent table, the warrior, said that he naturally had to do it, but unfortunately only when the two sides drew their swords and were eager to try, a person coughed and walked in.

Seeing this person, the two sides sat down to eat together, as if nothing had happened just now, and they didn't see the momentum of the saber rattling just now.

"Peach blossom stuffing. ”

The man slapped a handful of broken silver on the counter, his half-open and half-closed eyes scanned around, and his face was slightly sallow, as if he was lacking in qi.

The shopkeeper took out a jar of palm-sized wine from under the cabinet and handed it to him, smiled bitterly and put away the silver, and said, "My lord, don't come to us to buy wine in the future, this peach blossom brew is also for you to drink, and it can't be sold, and I won't be going to buy this thing next time." ”

The man patted off the mud seal, took a sip carefully, and sighed: "Tsk, you still sell peach blossom brew in this city, if you don't sell it anymore, I won't have a place to buy it if I want to drink it in the future." ”

"Aren't you going to be promoted, my lord?" asked the shopkeeper in a low voice.

"High ascension. ”

When the man heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes: "It was originally a sure thing, but it turned out to be a basket halfway, and it would be good if there was no punishment, where should I go up?"

"Hey, it's not that the evil king ......"

"Silence. ”

The man coughed and glanced at him with a slight warning: "There are some things that you can't talk about. ”

The shopkeeper couldn't help but shudder, woke up in shock, and quickly nodded: "Yes, yes......"

......

Gu Qing was not a six-eared macaque, so naturally he couldn't hear the conversation between them, and after eating, he rushed towards the jewelry store. 35xs

Don't forget that he had deducted the two strange gems that were his eyes on the statue of the ancient tomb before, and if he could suppress the snake, there must be something miraculous, and Gu Qing felt that he might be able to make a fortune.

Half an hour later.

Gu Qing frowned and walked out, his eyes flashing with suspicion.

The appraiser of the jewelry store told him that he couldn't read the history of this thing, so he didn't dare to give it too high a price, and a ten taels of gold was considered a sincere price.

In this regard, Gu Qing naturally didn't believe it, and decisively chose not to sell, but the other party was not reluctant.

"Do you want to wait until you sell the given dragon pie in the future? He rubbed the corners of his eyebrows, thinking with some headaches.

I didn't expect these two things to be sold, which was a bit unexpected by Gu Qing, if they were really worthless, wouldn't he lose a lot?

Originally, Gu Qing calculated very well, secretly gave up the gem, and then pretended to give up the inheritance left by Lu Wenyu generously, so that Zhao Wuyuan could not only owe him a personal favor, but also make a windfall.

But now it seems that some of my thoughts are too good.

"Childe, Childe. ”

At this moment, a woman's soft voice suddenly sounded behind him, and Gu Qing turned to look, but it was the tea maid at the end of the jewelry store just now. "Something?"

The maid weakly turned sideways and moved out of the way: "Master Liu, please speak again." ”

"There's a problem. ”

Gu Qing nodded as usual, and walked towards the jewel as she walked towards it, but the alarm bell sounded unconsciously in her heart, and mixed thoughts quickly overlapped, forming one possibility after another.

He was absolutely not mistaken, the appraiser surnamed Liu really didn't care too much about gemstones, and even one tael of gold still looked at the gems with a strange feeling.

That's the problem.

What was the reason for his sudden change of mind?

The full of thoughts was not revealed on his face, Gu Qing had just the right amount of doubt in his eyes, and followed the maid to the room on the second floor. Flash Dance

Old man Liu smiled apologetically and arched his hand: "Son, forgive me, the old man just looked away, if he hadn't checked the classics, he might really miss the treasure." ”

It's even more abnormal.

Gu Qing sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he still greeted him quietly, and his afterglow casually swept around, as if he was observing something.

Old man Liu coughed and took out a lacquered wooden box: "Childe, the old man is willing to buy those two gems for one hundred taels of gold, I don't know what Childe wants?"

Gu Qing sat down and said indifferently, "I'm very curious, what is that classic?"

As soon as these words came out, Old Man Liu's smile suddenly stiffened, and his forehead was sweaty. He was originally a reason for nonsense, in fact, there are no classics, I never thought that the other party was the master who didn't see rabbits and didn't scatter eagles.

"Eh, this ......" Old man Liu stiffened his head and said with a dry smile: "Son, forgive me, the secret classics are inconvenient to show people, and I hope to ......"

"Let him out. ”

Gu Qing looked at Old Man Liu suddenly, his eyes were full of a bit of playfulness, how could he do business as soon as he came up? This old boy can't act.

"What?"

"I said, let him out. Gu Qing's tone was already a little impatient.

"The old man doesn't understand what Childe said......"

The door opened, and a woman glared at him with some dissatisfaction, and walked in with a complaint: "Forget it, Old man Liu, you really disappointed Miss Ben." ”

As she spoke, she slapped the table with her slender hand, and turned to Gu Qing with her chin and beautiful eyes: "Say, what do you want?"

"One thousand taels. Gu Qing's eyelids rolled, and she directly casually threw a price, and the afterglow quietly swept over her maid, and her heart was a little clear.

The corners of the woman's mouth twitched, knowing that Gu Qing was asking for a sky-high price, and the price was not false at all, her red lips opened lightly, and she spit out three words: "Eleven taels." ”

"Farewell. Gu Qing's pupils shrank, knowing that he had met an opponent, so he immediately got up and walked out without saying a word.

The woman stood up, and her willow eyebrows raised slightly: "You don't think that you can keep this kind of treasure, right?"

"Hehe, if I can't keep it, I won't sell it cheaply. Gu Qing turned to shrug his shoulders.

"Ten thousand taels? ”

Gu Qing pouted: "Eleven taels, Your Excellency dares to bargain?"

The woman looked at him curiously, and suddenly asked, "The treasure of the Evil King Sect's inheritance, this thing disappeared hundreds of years ago.

The current Evil King Sect tried its best to find it. How did you get it? And it's said that it's always been with the Evil King's Secret Codex, and since you've got it, you must be ......."

Gu Qing was surprised in his heart, and his face was as calm as water: "No, this was just picked up on the ground by chance." ”

The woman softly threatened: "If you don't tell the truth, I will tell the news to the Evil King Sect......"

Gu Qing sneered: "I really only picked up these two things, and I don't know anything else." ”

"......" The woman was angry, but she couldn't stand that she really wanted to get the secret book of the evil king, so she could only hold back her anger and say, "How about one thousand taels and one?"

"Good. The corners of Gu Qing's mouth curled, as if he was proud of his persistence.

It's good, just a few days to make you proud.

The woman grinded her teeth with a look of embarrassment: "But there is not so much gold here, and I need a few days to raise it." ”

Gu Qing coughed and nodded: "Then it's three days, I'll come back in three days." ”

After that, he didn't mean to stay for a moment, so he raised his feet and left this place.

......

After a long time, a maid suddenly stepped forward and said softly: "Miss, why didn't we just capture him and force him to tell him the whereabouts of the Evil King's Secret Codex?"

The woman shook her head and sighed lightly: "It's not safe, from the conversation just now, you should have noticed that this guy is by no means a person who can tell the truth by coercing confessions from words and deeds."

If he doesn't say whether he lives or dies, or if he says it for a long time, it will be bad for us to delay for too long, so it is better to let him go. ”

The maid furrowed her eyebrows, and said with some reluctance: "Do you really want to wait for him to come over in three days?" I am afraid that he will not come, but choose to run away directly. ”

The woman sneered: "It's not possible, with his character, he will definitely run, and he will run now, you follow behind and see if you can get something." ”

"Whether you get it or not, ......," the maid made a gesture wiping her neck.

The woman blinked and bowed slightly: "Do it strictly, he must have the secret book of the evil king, since it has been sent to the door, then you must get it." ”

Gu Qing's strength is not as good as Er'er in her opinion, although it is possible that there is some backing behind this guy, but as long as it is done without leakage, even if the other party's backer comes to the door, they are not afraid, after all, how many fuel-efficient lamps can be used to open a jewelry store?

At that time, if there is no evidence at all, you can only end up with mud.

What's more, her thirst for the Evil King's Secret Archive is really to the extreme, you must know that the current Evil King Sect is simply a force composed of a bunch of stinky fish and rotten shrimps, and it cannot be compared with the previous Evil King Sect, the reason is that the Evil King Secret Codex.

Walking outside the door, Gu Qing glanced at the plaque thoughtfully, the corners of his lips curled, and his talent gave him a warning: "They will not give up, and the plan for now is to join the imperial court." ”

Thinking like this, his movements were unexpectedly fast, and he turned directly to the place of the mansion, and after saying his intentions, he checked the photo post, and the other party let him in without too much difficulty.

"Follow me. ”

A man with a tiger's back glanced at him, put down the double hammer in his hand, and led him to the backyard of the mansion, pointing to the black-brown stone lock in the corner of the wall.

He chuckled and said, "Since we have the intention to serve the court, we should welcome it, but this bowl of rice is not something that can be eaten casually." ”

"The lightest two thousand catties?" Gu Qing raised his eyebrows in surprise, this standard is a bit perverted, two thousand catties is one ton.

The man shook his head and pointed to the three stone locks to explain: "No, there are three kinds of stone locks here, all of which are made of special materials, and the lowest standard is for people like you who only have the foundation, but have not yet started, that is, two thousand catties."

The second is the stone lock of 5,000 catties, if you want to run freely, at least one of the five internal organs is condensed, which is not only the mastery of the physical force, but also the need to drum up the qi and blood to increase the strength.
