65.Chapter 65: The Star-Picking Scroll
In the private room of the restaurant, Xiao Bai and Ximenxiu sat opposite each other, with two cups of steaming tea on the table, Ximenxiu smiled and said: "I came to find Xiao Gongzi for two things, the first is to thank Xiao Gongzi for making me a lot of money this time." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Xiao Bai knew that Ximen Xiu, as the shopkeeper of a Wanbao Zhai branch, naturally had a lot of money, and he said that he had made a lot of money, and most of them had made a lot of bets on himself, and said with a smile: "It's the boss of Ximen who has a unique vision, and he bought me, a kid who looks like he has no chance of winning, and I want to thank the boss of Ximen for his affirmation." ”
"One yard to one yard, Xiao Gongzi did let me earn this money!" Ximen Xiu's face was happy, and his beautiful eyebrows were like a spring breeze, and said: "In order to chat about gratitude, I will prepare a small gift for Xiao Gongzi, chat to express gratitude, please don't shirk." After that, Ximenxiu took out a brocade box from his arms and handed it over.
As soon as Xiao Bai opened it, he immediately felt a wave of abundant heaven and earth aura coming towards him, which only made people's spirits lifted.
It turned out that there was a golden Ganoderma lucidum lying in the brocade box, its shape was very special, it looked like a huge scale, and the surface of the Ganoderma lucidum was surrounded by a faint golden aura smoke, which looked extraordinary.
Xiao Bai's heart trembled, and he said, "Could it be that this is the legendary Dragon Scale Immortal Zhi?"
Ximen Xiu smiled and said, "Xiao Gongzi has good eyesight, this is indeed Dragon Scale Immortal Zhi." ”
The dragon scale immortal zhi is the legendary true dragon scales left behind in the mortal world, containing extremely abundant heaven and earth aura, after the warrior takes it, it is very helpful for cultivation, it is a rare cultivation god in the world, and money can't buy it.
Xiao Bai felt the extremely strong aura in the Lingzhi, and judged that this Lingzhi was even more precious than the two Wind Thunder Demon Horns he had harvested before, if it was placed in Lingnan, maybe the number one master in Lingnan like Baili Mingjun would also snatch it.
Xiao Bai was shocked in his heart, such a treasure of heaven and earth could not be taken out by the owner of a small Wanbao Zhai branch in Yanyu City, it seems that the true identity of this Ximen Show is not as simple as it seems.
Xiao Bai closed the lid, handed the lingzhi back, and said, "The things given by Boss Ximen are too precious, Xiao Bai can't accept them." ”
Ximen Xiu seemed to have expected Xiao Bai to refuse, and said with a smile: "Xiao Gongzi doesn't have to refuse, in fact, I gave you this Lingzhi, thank you for one reason, and there is another reason, which is related to the exercise I bought from you last time." ”
Before, Ximen Xiu spent a sky-high price of 50,000 yuan to buy a very ordinary yellow-level high-grade exercise "Three-star Mixed Yuan Gong", Xiao Bai has always felt strange, knowing that this exercise naturally hides a major secret, his expression froze, and immediately asked: "Boss Ximen might as well say it directly." ”
Ximen Xiu didn't answer directly, got up and closed the window, then locked the door, and then sat on Xiao Bai's side, with a solemn face, and lowered his voice: "Xiao Gongzi, have you ever heard that more than fifty years ago, there was a mysterious special sect on the mainland, called the Star Picking Gate?"
Xiao Bai narrowed his eyes and said, "The first thief in the history of the continent you said?"
Ximen Xiu nodded and said: "Yes, back then, this Star Picking Sect cultivated the top secret exercises, and there were seven thief grandmasters in it, and all the powerful sects and families on the continent, and even the strongest force in the Red Dust Continent, the supreme human emperor hall, had been stolen by them, whether it was treasures, cultivation classics, divine weapons, The Divine Pill is still a powerful secret treasure, as long as it is something valuable, they all steal, although the Star Picking Gate has only existed for a short period of three years, but it has stolen half of the continent's wealth and treasures, so that the major forces of the mainland have suffered heavy losses, and later after the destruction of the Star Picking Gate, the treasure stolen by the Seven Great Thieves Grandmaster for half a lifetime has not been found, leaving only seven cultivation classics, collectively known as the 'Star Picking Ancient Scroll'. The Star Picking Scrolls are all very low-level exercises or martial arts, but there is a treasure map hidden in their content, which can help find the treasures left over from the Star Picking Gate back then. ”
The more Xiao Bai listened, the more surprised he became, and asked, "Could it be that the three-star Mixed Yuan Gong I sold you before is one of the 'Star Picking Ancient Scrolls'?"
Ximen Xiu said: "It's not just that one, but also the 'Seven Star Drunken Moon Sword' that Xiao Gongzi used today, which is actually one of the Star Picking Ancient Scrolls. ”
Xiao Bai thought to himself that it was no wonder that Ximen Xiu suddenly came to him again, presumably because he couldn't bear to see that he had two Star-Picking Ancient Scrolls, and asked, "Then does Boss Ximen know the names of the seven Star-Picking Ancient Scrolls?"
Ximen Xiu nodded: "After years of secret visits to my Ximen family, I have already investigated the names of these seven exercises, which are "One-Star Life and Death", "Two-Star Easy Palm", "Three-Star Mixed Yuan Gong", "Four-Star Lost Steps", "Five-Star Lianzhu Arrow", "Six-Star Dragon Elephant Gong", "Seven-Star Drunken Moon Sword". ”
The more Xiao Bai listened, the more surprised he became, he had already mastered five of the exercises that Ximen Xiu said, except for "One-Star Life and Death" and "Six-Star Dragon Elephant Gong".
Xiao Bai asked, "The matter of the Star Scroll is so important, I wonder why Boss Ximen revealed it to me?"
Ximen Xiu Zhengse said: "It's not a secret, fifty years ago, a family heirloom treasure of my Ximen family was also stolen by the Star Picking Gate, fifty years, the children of my Ximen family have inquired about the whereabouts of the Star Picking Treasure, and finally found out about the Star Picking Ancient Scroll, I revealed this news in the hope that if Xiao Gongzi finds the Star Picking Treasure in the future, he can return that heavy treasure to my Ximen family." ”
Simon's house?
Xiao Bai looked at the beautiful young man in front of him, and suddenly remembered that Wanbao Zhai, as the largest business in the Hongchen Continent, has branches all over the mainland, and the family that controls Wanbao Zhai is not surnamed "Ximen"?
This is the richest family on the mainland, and I heard that this family also has a strange rule, if any family member wants to ascend to the throne, he must go to a remote city to start from the shopkeeper of the smallest branch, and when he accumulates a sufficient amount of money to accelerate the regulations, he can be promoted from a small branch to a branch shop in a larger area, and so on, and finally have the opportunity to take charge of the entire Ximen family.
Xiao Bai finally understood that this young man named "Ximen Xiu" was actually the descendant of the Ximen family, otherwise how could he have such a heavy treasure as "Dragon Scale Immortal Zhi"!
Xiao Bai looked at Ximen Xiu and said, "To be honest, Boss Ximen is so sure that I must have seven Star Picking Ancient Scrolls?"
Ximen Xiu said: "I'm not sure, but my Ximen family has been looking for the Star Picking Scroll on the continent for many years, except for the one I bought from Xiao Bai Gongzi last time, I only saw the second one today, Xiao Bai Gongzi may not have all the Star Picking Scrolls, but you must be the person on the entire continent who has the best chance to collect all seven Star Picking Scrolls." ”
Xiao Bai looked at the young man in front of him, who looked like a boy and a girl, and suddenly admired the other party.
The Ximen family is not only the richest family in the mainland, but also a powerful super force with many warriors and strength, and he doesn't understand the value of the Star Picking Scrolls at all, Ximen Xiu can pay a sky-high price to buy all the Star Picking Scrolls in his hands, or directly find someone to arrest him and coerce him to hand over the remaining scrolls. However, Ximen Xiu did not do this, and just out of trust, he told himself such an important secret.
Xiao Bai said: "Actually, Xiao Bai doesn't have much interest in treasures, especially since these treasures are still stolen by people, but since the boss of Ximen has a commission, if Xiao Bai is lucky enough to collect all the seven Star Picking Ancient Scrolls, he will naturally find the lost things for the Ximen family, this dragon scale immortal mushroom, I accepted it." ”
Ximen Xiu was overjoyed, knowing that a loyal and righteous person like Xiao Bai, since he accepted something, it was equivalent to giving him a promise that he would definitely try his best to find that treasure for their Ximen family.
And Ximen Xiu saw Xiao Bai's various performances these days, and he also expected that he would definitely become a great figure on the mainland in the future, and he was also very confident in his recovery of treasures.
Subsequently, Ximen Xiu told Xiao Bai the name of the heavy treasure in the family, and after the latter left, the door opened, and Fu Ruhai, the old shopkeeper who followed Ximen Xiu, walked in.
"Little master, you really told him that big secret!? The old slave has a hundred ways to dig up all the star-picking scrolls he has from this young man. Fu Ruhai said regretfully.
Ximen Xiu Zhengse: "Lao Fu, the most important thing in doing business is integrity, we want to get the Star Picking Ancient Scroll, whether it is soft or hard, it violates this integrity." What's more, I'm sure he'll be able to retrieve it for our family. “
Fu Ruhai said: "Since the destruction of the Star Picking Gate, the Star Picking Treasure has never appeared in the world, countless powerhouses on the mainland have been searching for decades, without the slightest clue, the little master thinks that an ordinary boy from a weak family is really possible to collect seven Star Picking Ancient Scrolls to find the Star Picking Treasure, and do what no one in the mainland has done for decades?"
Ximen Xiu said: "Before Xiao Bai and Dugu Yun fought, didn't you also strongly oppose me putting all my money on Xiao Bai? But it turns out that my eyesight has made me enough money to be promoted from the boss of the branch shop in Yanyu City to the chief boss of Wanbaozhai in the entire eighteen cities of Lingnan, you don't have to say much about Xiao Bai, you just need to keep your mouth shut, don't reveal this matter to anyone in the family, if Xiao Bai encounters threats from the rest of the family because of your leakage, I will not be the first to spare you." ”
