【558】Compromise, unicorn horn in hand!
After weighing it again and again, we discussed it for nearly an hour, and finally reduced the list to six types of "natural treasures".
Among them, the most precious ones are, of course, the "True Phoenix Feather" and the "Qilin Horn" that Xia Wuren needed to "reshape his body". It's just that the "rare" thing is too rare, and we're not sure if the Maoshan Sect has it, so we just have the attitude of giving it a try.
As for the remaining four, they were all proposed by Feng Fei'er alone, of course, she didn't want it for herself, but for Xia Xiaoyi. According to her, she has a very powerful supernatural ability that she wants to teach Xia Xiaoyi, but she has been suffering from the lack of suitable medicine. And the four "Heavenly and Earth Treasures" she proposed at this time happened to be the best medicine guide for cultivating this supernatural power!
I took a cursory look at the four "treasures of heaven and earth" she proposed, which are also extremely precious, and almost every one of them is unattainable. In order to get these four flavors of medicine for Xia Xiaoyi, I had to reluctantly give up some of the "natural treasures" I needed, and planned to let Zuo Pengyun exchange the four "medicine leads" on this list. As for the "rarity", it can only be purely a matter of luck.
Once the list was confirmed, we no longer had a mother-in-law, so we found Zuo Pengyun who was resting in the guest house with Master Dian, explained the intention, and handed the list directly to him.
"True phoenix feathers, unicorn horns...... You're crazy poor, aren't you? ”
As expected, when Zuo Pengyun took a closer look at the six "heavenly treasures" on the list, his face couldn't help but become extremely ugly in an instant, and his gaze at me was full of resentment: "You guys are naked blackmail!" ”
"Whatever you want!"
Shrugging my shoulders slightly, I directly chose to ignore the anger in Zuo Pengyun's eyes, and sneered: "Anyway, if you don't see these things, you don't want to take the head token from me!" ”
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Zuo Pengyun couldn't help but glance at Master Tuan on the side again, and asked with a gloomy face, "Master!" Is this what you agreed upon? ”
"Uh, that's a ......"
After all, he is also a high-ranking monk, and Master Dian's face is obviously not very accustomed to this kind of "extortion", and his old face is red, but he can't help but talk a little.
"What's embarrassing!"
Seeing Master Dian's shame, Feng Fei'er suddenly became a little unhappy, and while Zuo Pengyun was not paying attention, she stepped forward and pinched Master Dian.
"Ahh
Forced by Feng Fei'er's "obscenity", Master Dian had no choice but to nod with a wry smile and replied, "That's right! That's exactly what we agreed on! The token of the head of the Maoshan Sect is a relic left by Lao Wang to Wang Lin after all, so ......"
"Bastard!"
Seeing that Master Lian had expressed his position, Zuo Pengyun was even more angry, and couldn't help but say angrily with a look of annoyance: "It's all this time, you still want to take advantage of the fire to rob?" I tell you, it's impossible! ”
"Even if my Maoshan Sect has a great cause, it will never be possible to gather so many heavenly and earthly treasures! Each of these pieces is almost a once-in-a-century treasure, and in a short period of time, where did you ask me to find so many treasures! ”
"It's your business, it's none of me!"
Glancing at him indifferently, seeing his angry and ruined face, my heart blossomed with joy. Because since he is willing to bargain, it means that this condition does not exceed Zuo Pengyun's bottom line, since this is the case, then it is even more impossible for me to give in, so he sneered and said: "It's still the same sentence, if you don't see things, you will never take away this head token!" Think about it yourself, I have time now, anyway! ”
After saying that, I ignored Zuo Pengyun and prepared to leave here with everyone.
"Wait a minute!"
Sure enough, just as we walked to the door, Zuo Pengyun still stopped us, gritted his teeth fiercely, and then took a deep breath and said: "It's okay to ask for things, but this 'rare', my Maoshan Sect really doesn't have it!" In addition to these two things, I can have the other four items delivered immediately! ”
Did he compromise after all?
As soon as these words came out, my eyes suddenly lit up, and it seemed that he still accepted our conditions! As for the "rare", it is indeed too rare, and we didn't have much hope from the beginning!
"Becoming ......"
However, almost just as I was about to promise Zuo Pengyun, Xia Wuren in my mind couldn't help but suddenly stop me again: "Wait a minute! ”
"Huh?"
I was subconsciously stunned, and the words that were almost in my mouth just now couldn't help but swallow them back. Immediately, he heard Xia Wuren sneer: "Don't fall for him, I don't know if he has a 'True Phoenix Feather' in Maoshan Sect, but this Qilin Horn definitely exists, and it originally belonged to your grandfather!" ”
"Oh?"
Before I could react, Xia Wuren had already continued: "About thirty years ago, the Tianchi Secret Realm suddenly opened, and your grandfather, me, and Na Mei Feibai arrived almost at the same time. The reason why Mei Feibai took the lead in breaking in was precisely because we met a unicorn that was about to die of old age! ”
"Your grandfather insisted on saving the dying Qilin, which delayed the best time to enter, and by the time we entered the secret realm, almost all the good things had been looted by Mei Feibai! Later, in order to thank your grandfather, the old unicorn gave him one of his unicorn horns! If nothing else, that unicorn horn should still be secretly preserved in the Maoshan Sect! ”
"Is there such a thing?"
After listening to Xia Wuren's narration, the corners of my mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and my eyes looking at Zuo Pengyun couldn't help but be full of cunning.
"How?"
At this time, Zuo Pengyun had already asked again: "This is already my bottom line, whether you agree or not, you can do it yourself!" ”
"Really?"
sneered, but I didn't say anything, I stared at Zuo Pengyun for a long time, and then I laughed sarcastically: "The dignified head of Maoshan didn't expect this to lie, and he didn't even blink an eyelid!" ”
"Huh?"
As soon as these words came out, Zuo Pengyun's face suddenly became a little gloomy, and he frowned: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"Humph!"
Glancing at Zuo Pengyun coldly, I sneered and said, "Didn't Boss Zuo fool us as three-year-old children?" You said you couldn't take out the real phoenix, I will believe you, but this unicorn horn ......"
"Hey......
As he spoke, I couldn't help but flash a touch of cunning on my face, and said with a smile: "How did I hear that my grandfather once left a unicorn horn to Maoshan back then?" ”
"You!"
As soon as he heard this, Zuo Pengyun's face suddenly became even more ugly than a pig's liver, although the matter of the "Tianchi Secret Realm" back then was only known to a very few people. But as the head of the Maoshan Sect, Zuo Pengyun must have known, he thought that I didn't know about it, but he forgot that Xia Wuren's soul was still in my body, how could this matter be hidden from me?
Without waiting for Zuo Pengyun to speak, I was already non-negotiable: "True Fengling, we don't want it!" But this unicorn horn was originally owned by my grandfather, and you must return it! ”
After speaking, without waiting for Zuo Pengyun's reply, he took everyone out of here.
Not long after returning to the Religious Affairs Bureau, we received a report from the staff of the guest house, saying that as soon as we left on the front foot, Zuo Pengyun left the guest house with his people.
In this regard, we are not very worried, because judging from Zuo Pengyun's previous attitude, our conditions are far from exceeding his bottom line. Compared to the head token of the Maoshan Sect, what is the mere unicorn horn? And the reason why he is leaving now, presumably he is also going back to Maoshan Sect to discuss with Zuo Qingmei, if nothing else, I believe that in a few days, he will come to the door again!
Sure enough, just three days later, someone came to us again. And this time, it was not Zuo Pengyun who came to the door, but Elder Wang Jingxiu, who I was more familiar with.
Compared to Zuo Pengyun, my impression of Elder Wang is undoubtedly much better, this person has an old relationship with my grandfather, and the last time I left the Maoshan Sect, it was thanks to his guidance.
After a few words of greeting, Elder Wang got down to business, got straight to the point, and directly asked me for the token of the head of the Maoshan Sect! At the same time, he also put five kinds of heavenly treasures, including the "unicorn horn", directly in front of us.
As for Elder Wang's character, I naturally can trust it, and without saying a word, I handed over the head token to him!
Elder Wang took it with an excited face, and after repeatedly confirming that this was the token of the head of the Maoshan Sect, his expression suddenly became a little serious.
Immediately afterwards, he actually made a big gift to me respectfully, and said with a grateful face: "Xiaoyou understands the righteousness, and I thank you on behalf of the Maoshan Sect!" ”
"I can't help it! Predecessor! ”
Elder Wang's actions undoubtedly startled me, so I quickly helped him up, and said with some embarrassment: "Aren't you tormenting the boy? This is all what you exchanged with me, how did you come to understand the righteousness......"
"Heh......"
Elder Wang smiled slightly, and then explained: "Compared to this master token, what are a few heavenly treasures? What's more, there are some things that were originally left to me by your grandfather to my Maoshan Sect when he was alive, and now they are just returned to their original owners! ”
As he spoke, Elder Wang hurriedly put away the head token, exchanged a few words of greeting, and left here in a hurry.
