Chapter 454: The Hope of the Alien Treasure Sect
This is really a waste utilization to the extreme, these people of the Alien Treasure Sect are really not bad at business, they have completely grasped the weakness of human nature, and they are doing a businessless business with no risk at all.
Ge Heng thought that after he explained this, Chen Gong should no longer have any interest in this hope shop, but he didn't expect Chen Gong to move in and take a look because he deduced that the treasure hunting secret of the Strange Treasure Sect should still have some good results.
Ge Heng saw Chen Gong walking towards the Hope Store, so he had no choice but to follow in.
Under normal circumstances, it is rare for cultivators in the refining period to walk here, because after they go bankrupt, it is very likely that they will only get a piece of broken copper and iron, and such a transaction that is similar to a gamble can only be afforded by monks above the merger period, even if they look away once, they will be distressed for a period of time at most, and there will be a chance to recover after all.
The old man who was guarding the counter felt two cultivators from the Refining Void Stage realm coming in, and opened his half-squinted eyes in slight surprise, his gaze swept towards Chen Gong and the others, and after finding that there was Ge Heng among the people who came in, a look flashed like this, and he half-squinted his eyes again, thinking about his own business.
Chen Gong's sense is very acute now, he has not yet stepped into the hope shop, he found that the old man's cultivation is very profound, and when the other party released his spiritual sense to scan himself, he finally let Chen Gong seize the opportunity to find out clearly, the old man in front of him who seems to be in poor spirits, his cultivation has at least reached the late stage of integration.
Ge Heng obviously also knew that this old man was not trivial, and after entering the Hope Store, he kept silent and silently followed behind Chen Gong.
As a modern person, Chen Gong knows too well that this kind of business of gambling on luck needs to have the practice of super masters, otherwise it will be troublesome if someone loses and makes trouble. This hope shop is called hope, but nine out of ten people are desperate, if there is no master in charge, wouldn't everyone be clamoring to return it, then how can the strange treasure sect continue to do this business.
Chen Gong's eyes glittered, and he carefully examined the mess in the shop, his spiritual sense swept over each item as if it were nothing, and any abnormalities in it were taken into account.
Ge Heng saw that Chen Gong began to look for it seriously, knowing that he had already moved the mind of taking a gamble, and secretly regretted in his heart that he had just told Chen Gong about his experience of losing all his money here several times in order to save face, and now it seems that he is going to spend a lot of money again.
Ge Heng didn't know what a shrewd person Chen Gong was, except for his friends, he would never do loss-making business in his life, especially since he was a child, his family was poor, and every penny was hard-earned for a while, and he never did this kind of gambling behavior, and today is naturally no exception.
Chen Gong's eyes were soon drawn to a short wooden sword made of dead wood and a metal orb. These two things can be described as stark contrasts, and they are completely different objects.
The wooden sword was decent, looking like a wooden sword played by a country child, crudely made, without a trace of mana fluctuations. The only thing that catches some attention is that there are a lot of strange symbols carved on this wooden sword, which make people feel a sense of vicissitudes at a glance.
However, the metal orb was shining with golden light, extremely dazzling, and there were deep mana fluctuations on it, but the fluctuations were extremely strange, and it was even impossible to tell which kind of spiritual power was contained in it. It's just that when Chen Gong probed his spiritual sense into it, he found that it was a metal ball at all, and there was nothing strange in it, and he couldn't even see an inscribed magic circle.
It's just that these two things can make Chen Gong sense an extremely familiar aura, which makes him feel a shock in his heart, and a faint look of ecstasy flashes in his eyes.
Chen Gong casually took the wooden sword in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, it seemed that he couldn't make up his mind, and after putting it down, he went to pick up the metal ball, and he also played with it for a long time, and then put it down.
In fact, Chen Gong had already decided to buy both of these things in his heart, but he cut himself too much and simply made others suspicious, and he was afraid that the old man would sit on the ground and raise the price, so he had these actions to cover up.
Ge Heng saw that the things Chen Gong was looking at were either ordinary or flashy, and he secretly complained in his heart, these two things were almost the representatives of the broken copper and iron in the hope store. Either it is ordinary and makes some unusual symbols and patterns to attract attention, or it is dazzling and extremely eye-catching, basically such things will not be of any use if you buy them back, and you will lose all your money when you buy them back.
It's just that in this hope shop, it was originally a place to try luck, and now what Chen Gong chooses, who can guarantee that it is not a good thing? Ge Heng is not easy to interrupt, in case Chen Gong really chooses two good magic weapons, he Ge Heng will not become a person who does bad things with good intentions.
Chen Gong seemed to have picked a lot of things, and then hesitated between the wooden sword and the golden ball, and finally gritted his teeth, and actually brought both things to the counter, and said, "How much is this wooden sword and the golden ball?"
"Originally, if you sold them separately, you would need 400 pieces of aquamarine or 3 pieces of citrine, but now you will be a little less together, 700 pieces of aquamarine or 5 pieces of citrine. The old man didn't even raise his head, and directly quoted a price.
Thinking that the Kunlun faction was on the earth back then, in the inheritance ring of a sect, there were only more than two hundred pieces of azurite, about twenty pieces of citrine, although the earth was in a low-level world, but the Kunlun sect was not trivial, even if it was obtained from the current source realm with the strength of the year, it could be regarded as a small source realm cultivation sect, and the old man quoted the price of one-sixth of the wealth of a small cultivation sect in one breath, no wonder those monks in the integration period before did not dare to start.
Rao is Ge Heng was born in one of the four major cultivation families in Yangzhou, and his net worth far exceeded that of ordinary cultivators in the refining period, but he was still taken aback by this price, and finally couldn't help but want to dissuade him.
"Okay, I want these two things. Chen Gong said in a deep voice, and after speaking, he took out seven hundred neatly stacked blue crystals and piled them on the counter.
Ge Heng didn't expect Chen Gong to buy it so simply, so he had no choice but to swallow back the words of dissuasion, and he felt a big loss in his heart.
At this moment, three people came in at the door, one of them was handsome and unusually tall, if it weren't for his arrogant expression, and a sinister aura flashed in his eyes, he could be regarded as a beautiful man with a good demeanor.
Behind him were two monks, a man and a woman, the male looking rather thin but sharp-eyed, and the female bewitching, with a fiery figure and a pair of peach blossom eyes.
Ge Heng looked at the young man, his face smiled, and his eyes were extremely reluctant to touch him.
"Ge Heng, is this your friend, you came here to buy such a wooden sword and beads, and you took them back to tease the children, right?" As soon as the young man entered, his eyes swept over the wooden sword and metal beads on the counter, and he sneered.
The old man, who was originally drowsy and had no energy to collect money, suddenly opened his eyes, and his essence soared, shooting at the young man who was sneering like a sharp sword, but when he found the appearance of the young man and the two followers behind him, the pair of eyes returned to the old and dizzy appearance, and said weakly: "The world's treasures are all back to simplicity, and Wang Gongzi's words are a bit too much." ”
A cold light flashed in the eyes of the young man known as Wang Gongzi, but in the end he still did not have a seizure, obviously very jealous of the strength of this old man and the power behind him.
Ge Heng obviously didn't want to conflict with Wang Gongzi, the anger in his eyes flashed, and then he returned to normal.
Chen Gong is such a shrewd character, when the three of them were still at the door, he had already roughly judged that these three people had the cultivation of the early stage of integration, and then saw that Ge Heng was silent, and the old man just warned the people who came not to make a big deal here, and he already understood in his heart that the origin of these three people was extraordinary.
Although Chen Gong's strength has risen sharply now, as long as he is not a master above the Tribulation Period, it is difficult to threaten him, but he is in the Yanlong Empire, which can be described as the lair of the Sun Worship Sect, and it is obviously not a wise move to make enemies at will. So after he heard Wang Gongzi's ridicule, he pretended not to hear it, just silently put away the wooden sword and gold beads, and then slowly turned around.
When he turned around, Chen Gong caught a glimpse of the inconspicuous sleeves of the pair of men and women embroidered with a round of white sun, although it was like a thousand rays, it looked extremely cold. The murderous intent in Chen Gong's eyes flashed away, and then he greeted Ge Heng casually and passed by the three of them.
The two of them came out of the hope store, and Ge Heng sighed and said, "The money that Mr. spent just now is too wronged. ”
Chen Gong didn't intend to defend himself, he just smiled slightly, and then asked, "Who were those three people just now?"
Ge Heng's expression couldn't help but be gloomy when he heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Hmph, the person in the middle is Wang Yu, the eldest grandson of Wang Zhenyu, the head of the Wang family, one of the four major Xiuzhen families in Yangzhou, and I don't know the other two, but it seems that they should be from the Sun Worship Sect." ”
"Is this Wang family's power stronger than the other three?" Chen Gong asked.
Ge Heng's face changed slightly, knowing that Chen Gong saw that he had made concessions in front of Wang Yu, so he asked this question, and replied: "In terms of real strength, among the four major families, the Wang family is only worthy of being at the bottom, if it weren't for Wang Zhenyu of the Wang family, who worshiped the Sun Worship Sect a hundred years ago and became the protector of the Sun Worship Sect, relying on the Sun Worship Sect as a backer, otherwise how would he Wang Yu dare to make a big deal of nonsense in the place of the Strange Treasure Sect." ”
When Chen Gong heard this, he sighed and said, "Speaking of which, the power of the Sun Worship Sect is very strong?"
Because before arriving in Yangzhou Mansion, Chen Gong had told Ge Heng that he had been cultivating alone in an unnamed cave in the Evil Horse Continent, so he was very unfamiliar with the situation of the Yanlong Empire, so Ge Heng didn't think it was strange that Chen Gong didn't even know about the Sun Worship Sect.
However, he still showed a slight look of surprise before he said, "The most powerful forces in the Yanlong Empire are one sect and one sect and twelve sects. One sect is naturally the Sun Worship Sect, the other is the Kunlun Sect, and the Twelve Sects are the representatives of the strongest Xiuzhen sect in the Twelve Prefectures of Yanlong, and the Yibao Sect is one of them. It is said that its leader Liu Chuxiang is one of the few top masters in the Yanlong cultivation realm, and his cultivation has reached the Mahayana period. ”
Although Chen Gong already knew the power of the Sun Salutation Sect in his heart, when he heard that it was actually the state religion of the Yanlong Empire, at the top of the Yanlong Cultivation Realm, he was still secretly shocked in his heart, and suddenly felt the pressure double, and for a while, his originally calm expression became a little unnatural.
