Chapter 19: Beautiful
Chu Xuyun hadn't bothered Chu Yibai recently, because there were less than three weeks before the annual second-class family competition, and the juniors in the cultivation hall were busy cultivating to prepare for the competition.
Although the emperor left without saying hello, Chu Xuyun forgot about it within a few days.
During this period, Chu Yibai jumped into the team of Earth Spirit Root and Mu Spirit Root during class, pretending to be a ghost to scare Chu Yuankai and his little brothers.
Because Chu Yibai's cultivation was already faster than that of ordinary spirits, and he took the Gathering Spirit Pill given by the ice cube face, his cultivation directly reached the late stage of spiritual cultivation two weeks later! However, with the existence of the Hidden Spirit Ring, Chu Yibai is still a weak chicken in the middle stage of the spirit warrior.
Chu Yiyun looked at Chu Yibai, who was often full of cultivation halls, and his teeth itched with hatred, but Dabi was right in front of him, and he must not be distracted by this slut!
Chu Yibai is relying on the fact that everyone is preparing for Dabi these days, so he is bouncing back and forth in the cultivation hall like a monkey, and Chu Yibai knows a lot of things with other spiritual root teams.
For example, Master Zhang's wife accidentally cuckolded him, Master Fan of Tulinggen next door secretly disagreed with Master Qi, and many young boys among the children of the lower people had a crush on Senior Sister Qiu in the Shui Linggen team......
Well, I deeply feel that there is only Chu Yibai, who is the most idle in the entire cultivation hall, and I have also gone to my cheap grandfather to sell it when I am bored, of course, I will inevitably care about and comfort Xu Lao by the way.
Soon, there were still two days left before all the second-class families in Gao Jinguo.
This big competition was spontaneously organized by the second-class families in Gaojin's country, and its purpose was not only to motivate the juniors in the clan to cultivate diligently, but also to test the waters between the second-class families, and the rewards set by the competition were also very rich.
As long as they are between the ages of fourteen and eighteen and have cultivated to the second-class juniors above the Lingshi realm, each family can select thirty people to participate in the competition.
At that time, the big competition will be held in the northernmost Yiwei Villa in Gaojin Kingdom, and there is a competition platform in Yiwei Villa, where not only the place is open, but also not far from the Chihong Sect, and the competition will also stimulate the enthusiasm of the juniors more.
The Chu Mansion has always set off two days in advance, and before leaving, Chu Pengtian found Chu Zixiu, who had the best talent, Chu Zimo, who cultivated the highest, and several juniors with great potential for mobilization.
The last one is Chu Yibai, but it is obvious that this product is an exception.
"Yibai, in fact, grandfather doesn't want you to go, after you get there, grandfather is really worried about what kind of trouble you will cause again, but he always lets you stay at home and not see some of the world, and it is not very good for your cultivation."
Chu Yibai looked at his cheap grandfather with a drooping face, is this still his own grandfather?!
To everyone else, "Just do your best!" "Grandfather believes that you will bring glory to the family!" "You performed very well last year, and recently I see that your cultivation has risen a lot, and this year I hope to go to the next level!"
And when it comes to himself, "I don't want you to go", "What kind of mess are you doing", "Stay at home"
"Grandfather, I'm also in the late stage of spirituality, am I still your own granddaughter?!"
Some time ago, Chu Pengtian still remembered the incident of Wang Zifu clearly, but he was afraid that the Wang family would hold a grudge and take the opportunity to be unfavorable to Yibai, and after a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, he said,
"Yibai, I've already told them, you don't have to participate in the big competition at that time, just stay in the team and watch other people's competitions, how much you can learn something, you know?"
"Oh."
The three elders in the mansion, Lin Yanghua, Shen Xiuwei, and Jing Guang, as well as the five deacons in the mansion, led the thirty-one juniors of the Chu Mansion to Yiwei Villa immediately, and Chu Yibai was the extra one, but his identity was just an escort.
A day later, the group came to the town at the foot of Yiwei Villa, and after finding a few inns, the deacons arranged for them to stay.
Because Chu Yibai was a young lady and the inn room was a little nervous, he was arranged to live in a room with another young lady named Chu Qian.
The young lady who should be her cousin is a good-tempered lady, because what she said to Chu Yibai was limited to, 'hey', 'oh', 'um'.
Chu Yibai, who was really bored after eating at noon, called Qiu Yue and Xiao Yun and sneaked out of the inn to have fun in the town.
The town is called Shengyang Town, which is actually not small, with traders everywhere and various shops on the street.
Chu Yibai, who had just come out, was attracted by some food, and because of the family competition in the past few days, there were more than twice as many people in the town as usual.
After a while, Chu Yibai was reading a book at a small bookstall on the side of the road while eating, and Qiu Yue and Xiao Yun, who were not far away, suddenly called her, saying that there was a fun thing to see over there.
Many people gathered in front of a small shop, two bald men were polishing stones in front of a table, behind the table were frames of stones, and a shopkeeper in front of him who looked a little thief-eyed was talking to the crowd.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a characteristic of our Shengyang Town, don't miss it when you pass by, guess the stone and try your luck, and take the good jade home!"
Chu Yibai had heard that Nanxi Mountain, which was backed by Shengyang Town, was rich in jade. Therefore, most of the people here also rely on selling jade for their livelihood, taking advantage of the big competition of Yiwei Villa, on the next street, you can see this kind of stone guessing stalls almost everywhere.
Qiu Yuexing explained to Chu Yibai that as long as she handed in ten spirit stones, she could guess a stone for the guy to help polish for free, and this stone was said to have a nine-layer chance of being able to open jade, she just looked at it for a while, and sure enough, many people could guess it.
Chu Yibai squinted and looked at it for a while, the probability of producing jade is indeed very high, but the quality of the jade is really not flattering, and some stupid people spend hundreds of spirit stones to guess that it is some slag jade, that is, the most worthless jade.
It's all some coaxing tricks, just when Chu Yibai was about to pull the two of them away, she suddenly thought of it, can't the divine sense come to investigate the surrounding environment? If you use your divine sense, will you be able to peek into the stone?
Chu Yibai, who was moved, borrowed the stones of the stone guessers next to her to do an experiment, and after trying several times, she finally found that her divine sense was really special!
The jade in the stone is of high quality and large in size, and when Chu Yibai senses this kind of stone, his divine sense will have a warm feeling, while those stones that do not contain a little bit of jade will not react at all.
With a roll of his eyes, if he could think of it, someone would definitely think of it, but seeing that many of the outsiders with high cultivation were also empty-handed, Chu Yibai guessed that it might be that his divine sense was a little special, but, hehehe.
Attached to the ear whispered a few words to Qiu Yue and Xiao Yun, Chu Yibai rubbed his hands and took out a hundred spirit stones, "Shopkeeper, I'll have ten stones!" ”
stepped forward to pick and choose in the basket, Chu Yibai picked up a lot of stones and knocked them again, looked at the colors carefully, and even sniffed them with his nose at the end.
Then she proudly picked out ten stones and put them on the table.
"Man, I'm careful to polish these ten pieces, they are all good jade!"
Everyone laughed when they heard this, this little girl is really a big mouth! We'll see what she can do later!
The speed of the man's polishing was very fast, and after a while, the ten stones were all opened and placed neatly on the table, and everyone curiously gathered around to take a look, hey, let this girl talk big, only one stone opened a small red jade, and the others are all the same, scum jade!
When Chu Yibai saw it, he put away the piece of red jade, picked up a few stones in a huff and fell away.
"Hmph, why are they all like this! Forget it, stop playing! With that, he left the stall with anger on his face, and everyone laughed again.
"Shopkeeper, this is fifty spirit stones, I'll try it." After Qiu Yue saw Chu Yibai leaving, she stepped forward and carefully picked five stones, and when the guy polished them, yo, two of them were actually valuable purple water jade!
Everyone looked at this lucky girl with envy, the corners of the shopkeeper's eyes twitched a little, two pieces of purple water jade, even if they sold it, they wouldn't take it out to guess the stone! And seeing that the texture of the two pieces was still superior, the shopkeeper immediately stopped Qiu Yue,
"Girl, why don't you make a price, how about selling these two pieces of purple water jade to me?"
Qiu Yue was secretly shocked in her heart, it was really the same as what Yibai said!
"I'm sorry shopkeeper, I like these two pieces of jade very much, and I don't plan to sell them." After that, he put away the jade and left.
"Shopkeeper, I'll try again!" Chu Yibai ran back from a short distance with a snort.
Everyone's eyes were attracted by this girl again.
took out fifty spirit stones, Chu Yibai smiled,
"Shopkeeper, I really didn't expect you to have such a good jade here! I thought about the good fortune of that young lady and tried again! ”
When everyone heard this, they all wanted to see if this girl was so lucky to be able to open jade again.
Chu Yibai's old trick was repeated to pick and choose, seeing, touching and smelling, and only after hesitation did he choose five more stones,
"There will definitely be good jade this time! Maybe I'll be able to give that girl's good fortune a bit! Chu Yibai watched the guy polish with great interest.
"Palm, shopkeeper!" A guy was polishing and suddenly stopped, and looked at the shopkeeper with a little trembling hands, "Autumn, autumn, autumn,"
Chu Yibai's eyes rolled, and the stone was the most powerful in his own divine sense, looking at the guy's reaction, it was estimated that this jade was definitely not ordinary!
Before everyone could react, she moved her body and put away the five stones on the table that had not been polished without a trace, and said angrily,
"What the hell are you shivering, you guy! What should I do if I break this stone? Forget the shopkeeper, I don't need you to open it, farewell! ”
After speaking, Chu Yibai slipped out of the crowd at a very fast speed, and disappeared in the crowd on the street in the blink of an eye.
The shopkeeper is very shrewd, and the guys in the store have some eyesight, and this reaction must be that the stone has opened a baby, but Chu Yibai is like the soles of his feet are oiled, he didn't see it clearly, and he didn't even stop her!
"Everyone, keep going, that girl is probably here to mess around, go on!"
Then some people guessed one after another, but none of the two pieces of purple water jade opened by Qiu Yue were of high quality.
In an inconspicuous small teahouse diagonally opposite not far away, Qiu Yue looked at Chu Yibai who was staring at the stone guessing stall with admiration,
"Yibai, you're amazing! How do you know there's jade in those stones? These two pieces are still high-quality purple water jade! ”
Chu Yibai pretended to smile and said,
"Because I'm so beautiful! Beautiful jade with beautiful women, so I naturally saw it at a glance! ”
