Chapter 159: A Miracle
()
The "Hope" blue diamond is one of the most famous diamonds in the world.
However, it has a terrifying name, also known as the "Messenger of Calamity".
This huge blue diamond was created in India 500 years ago.
At that time, in an abandoned mine on the banks of the Kiber River, an old man passing by suddenly saw a stone that shimmered with blue light, which was identified as a huge blue diamond ore, which was later processed and still had 112.5 carats.
After the old man's death, his three sons began a journey of disaster for the diamond, and they fought over it, and later, the diamond was set on the forehead of the idol by the patriarch.
Soon after, a French missionary killed two guardian temple Brahmins and brought the diamond back to his homeland, where his throat was cut on a thunderstormy night.
Decades later, Hope Sapphire fell into the hands of a Parisian jeweller who sold the diamond to Louis XIV before being bitten to death by a wild dog.
Louis XIV soon returned to the West and gave it to Princess Belle, who was beaten to death by a group of civilians.
By this time, the diamond had become a treasure of the French royal family and was renamed "French Sapphire".
The next person to receive the blue diamond was Louis XVI of France, who was guillotined with Queen Marie shortly after receiving the diamond.
One of the guards stole the diamond, and by the time he was found again, he had already committed suicide due to insanity.
Later, the Russian prince Ivan got her and gave it to a prostitute, but soon after, for some reason, he suddenly stabbed the prostitute to death with his sword, and he himself died in the palace.
In order to crack the ominous nature of this giant diamond, the Russian Empress Catherine ordered it to be sent to the Netherlands after Prince Ivan obtained the giant diamond, and it was carefully polished by a world-class diamond polisher, and finally, it was cut into its current appearance, from more than 110 carats in the past to 44.4 carats now.
Unfortunately, the ominous entanglement that wraps around this diamond, even more terrifying than the curse of a vicious wizard, continues.
The grinder's son stole the diamond, and the diamondsmith, unable to deal with it, eventually committed suicide by poisoning.
Many years later, the diamond traveled to England, Russia, and Turkey, where it continued to be ominous, and was finally sold at an auction house in 1947 for $15 million.
Its last owner gifted it to the Smith Institute in Washington, D.C., and since then it has been housed in the exhibition halls of the Institute's small museum.
Regarding this hope blue treasure, Zhou Xiaoya had paid special attention to it because of his interest when he was in school, so as soon as Sun Yuting said it at this moment, he didn't feel strange at all.
However, it is absolutely impossible to run to the United States to steal the Hope Sapphire.
At the beginning, the reason why Sun Meimei made such a wish publicly, most of them were just casually said, and what she liked was that she hoped that Lanbao had been given to the museum and would never be put up for auction again, so that the guy who was engaged to her would retreat.
In fact, with the fierce reputation of this huge blue diamond, even if they can get their hands on it, who would dare to propose marriage with it? Aren't they afraid of being tainted with ominous?
Sun Yuting, this girl can't talk but has a brain, and in order to save her sister, she can even think of this way.
"It's an ominous diamond, you know? Since it was discovered and finally put into the museum, do you know how many misfortunes have happened to those who once owned it?
Rolling his eyes speechlessly, Zhou Xiaoya shook his head very firmly: "Don't mention this kind of thing again, don't say that you can't steal it at all, even if you can really do it, I can't do it." ”
"That'...... Then I don't care, you are responsible for saving my sister from the fire!"
Seeing that Zhou Xiaoya's attitude was so resolute, Sun Yuting was directly anxious.
The figure was much closer again, and the little girl wrapped her hands around Zhou Xiaoya's right arm, just like Li Liwen's woman, her bulging chest pressed up, and she shook it directly.
Not to mention, although this girl is not very old, her capital is really not small, and she is soft and elastic, and I don't know if she has been pinched and swollen by the female pervert of Demon Moon Sakurako in the past two days.
Thinking wildly, Zhou Xiaoya was shaken by Sun Yuting like this, and a few wisps of thought immediately popped up in his heart, and he subconsciously lowered his head slightly, and quickly glanced at the bulge next to his arm.
No, no, it's a loss for a brother-in-law to scream, my sister hasn't arrived yet, and I think about my sister-in-law again, beasts!
scolded himself for two sentences, and the black line on Zhou Xiaoya's head immediately climbed two.
Let this girl shake down again, I was afraid that it would be difficult to ensure that it would be true for a while, so he quickly rolled up his sleeves and pulled out his arm, and said curtly:
"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you, won't I? I didn't say I wouldn't help your sister! ”
"Really?"
As soon as she heard this, Sun Yuting stopped her coquettish movements.
"Of course, no matter what, I saved her little life, right? How could I watch her life worse than death? Doesn't that mean that I saved the wrong one in the first place? Saving people has become evil?" Pursing his lips, Zhou Xiaoya suddenly felt that he was very shameless, and he could say this kind of thing.
"Haha, brother-in-law, you have finally come to your senses! Then tell me, what should we do next?"
As soon as she heard Zhou Xiaoya say this, Sun Yuting finally put her mind at ease, put her hands together, and tied Zhou Xiaoya's arm again:
"Why don't we come out and grab our relatives......? Hmph, and I have to pick and choose to go over with that guy when he goes to Sun's house to propose marriage, and when the time comes, I will step on him hard and slap him in the face. ”
"The Sun family, do you say that about your own family?"
Hearing that Sun Yuting's tone was not quite right, Zhou Xiaoya's face was stunned, and suddenly remembered the difference between the two sisters, and he was curious, so he immediately asked:
"By the way, just looking at your sister, you also know that your Cainan Sun family is definitely rich and noble, why did you throw this girl on the side of Jianghai University and no one cares?"
As soon as this question was mentioned, Sun Yuting's expression immediately darkened, and she smiled forcefully, waved her hand and said:
"When you marry my sister, you will naturally know about these things...... Besides, Miss Ben doesn't want anyone to take care of it, how uncomfortable is it? By the way, brother-in-law, what other ideas can we have besides Hope for Lanbao? I heard my sister say that the guy let out a word, saying that he has obtained a treasure of the same level as Hope Lanbao, and he will come to the door to propose marriage after a while!"
"If we really want to rob the relatives, if this dowry is compared, it will be sent to the door and slapped in the face, it is purely looking for abuse, let's say okay first, I don't have this hobby!"
"Damn! I seem to like being abused, is Lao Tzu so perverted?" rolled his eyes, and Zhou Xiaoya's face was full of disdain.
Frowning and groaning for a while, Zhou Xiaoya raised his head and glanced at Sun Yuting, and after seeing this girl, she was looking at herself expectantly. My heart suddenly turned horizontal, and I made a decision in an instant.
If you are paralyzed, you will shoot when you should shoot, and you can't care about it so much!
Speaking of which, the girl's one million living expenses in front of her have been falsely paid back, and now they want to save their own sister, they are obviously capable, if they deliberately ignore it for fear that their secrets will be noticed, this is really no different from a beast.
It's so cold-blooded and ruthless, it's not a human thing!
Thinking of this, the corners of Zhou Xiaoya's mouth immediately evoked a rather playful mysterious smile, and he quietly pulled his arm out of Sun Yuting's embrace, lowered his voice, and said in a sly manner: "Do you remember the kind of demon purple double-pupil opal we got from Bailan Auction House last time?"
"Remember, so what...... Oops, brother-in-law, you ...... You don't really have it in your hands, do you? I thought you were joking when I heard you talk about wholesale last time!"
As soon as she heard Zhou Xiaoya mention this, Sun Yuting was slightly stunned, and a touch of surprise immediately appeared on her face.
It's just that this surprise stayed on his face for a noticeably short time, and the blink was replaced by a touch of frustration:
"Forget it, I still don't mention it...... Although the demon purple double-pupil opal is also a rarity, compared to the Hope Sapphire, it is not a little bit worse...... How much did you buy last time? Do you know what the price of Hope Blue Sapphire is now? How many billions are there!"
"Of course one won't work, but if it's eighteen...... No, what about thirty-six? And each one is exactly the same, the same!"
Secretly biting his teeth, Zhou Xiaoya said half of what he said, and suddenly changed his mouth, and threw out all the inventory on hand.
Solo Fruit: Although this fruit is called a fruit, it is actually a golden and jade thing, and legend has it that the Solo tree bears only one fruit in its lifetime, which is like a jewel, hard and translucent, like the best opal. It contains a faint spiritual power, and it belongs to the feminine spiritual power, which is most suitable for women to carry around, and has the magical effect of nourishing yin.
This kind of treasure, when Zhou Xiaoya first entered the fairy sword world, he got thirty-seven from the cave on the central platform of the Demon Ape Island Ape Peak, and he had already taken one off at the Bailan Auction House last time, and there were exactly thirty-six left, implying the number of Xiao Zhoutian.
These thirty-six Solo fruits, oh no, should be called Demon Purple Eyes now, if a top international jewelry design master, design it into a fashionable and luxurious necklace, it will definitely shock the entire international jewelry industry.
It's a miracle!
