Chapter 111: The Orb (I)

The Tatsunoon Gym reopens. The opening ceremony was very grand, and the nearby Taoists came to congratulate one after another, and Lou Zhixian and other local officials and businessmen who had nothing to do with the cultivation also sent congratulatory gifts.

The owner of the Sanhe River Pavilion also came to congratulate him in person, he had a good memory, and when he saw Jiang Chen Jiang in the afternoon, he recognized them as one of the teenagers who came to the Daoist Pavilion to apprentice in the past two years, and he was immediately very embarrassed. The nameless boy who was rejected by him back then turned into a famous Taoist master!

After the lively opening ceremony, all the Taoist heroes left one after another. Han Banxian and Cangxia Daoren also left one after another, and the Tie Shen General and his subordinates who escorted Jiang Chen back to his hometown also left with their resignations.

Yunlan Town returned to calm. Aside from the fact that the Chenwu Gym had become extraordinarily grandiose - and they didn't have to pay rent anymore, it didn't seem to be much different from their previous lives.

The Chenwu Gym is still rarely frequented by customers, there are no young demons and monsters here, and there are only two monks in the town.

Jun Zhu also moved into the Chenwu Gym, of course, as an alchemist. Jiang Wu still studies kendo every day, only Jiang Chen, although he no longer has to be scared all day long like when he was in the military frontier, but in the current peaceful days, he has nothing to do, and he is quite bored, sitting in the courtyard all day long, hoping that a customer will come to the door.

"Senior Han Banxian invited us to visit Lingnan, or the lychees there are very delicious, why don't we find time to go. ”

"The southwest mountainous area where Cangxia Dao people are located, the peaks are continuous, the scenery is magnificent, and it is also something that cannot be seen in other places, I also want to take a look!"

Jiang Chen kept having all kinds of thoughts in his heart, but he saw that Jun Zhu and Jiang Wu seemed to be enjoying the peaceful life now, so he didn't put these thoughts into action.

His dream was to carry forward the Chenwu Gym without worrying about rent and expenses every day. Now he has realized such a dream, the Taoist Hall was bought by Zixia Daoist and expanded to give him, no need to pay rent; as for the expenses, as the commander-in-chief, he brought back the military salary after joining the army, which is enough for him and Jiang Wu to use for a lifetime; and the fame of the Chenwu Taoist Hall has also been obtained, and the gathering of distinguished guests from all over the world on the opening day is the best proof.

When a dream comes true, a higher dream is needed. Jiang Wu is obsessed with the way of the sword and has no end, and although Jiang Chen also wants to cultivate, it is difficult to continue. What he wanted to do before, he had already done it, but what he wanted to do now was limited by his own talent and he couldn't get started, so he suddenly felt a little lost and empty.

Junzhu teased Xiaobai every day, experimenting with all kinds of Danfang, and lived a very fulfilling life. Aunt Li takes care of their daily life and diet, and is also busy in the morning and evening. Chen Ying still doesn't leave Jiang Chen day and night, he can stand behind Jiang Chen all day without doing anything and not feel bored. In the entire Chenwu Dao Hall, there is only Jiang Chen as an idler.

Getting closer and closer to Qixi Festival, Jun Zhu hugged Xiaobai, always passing by Jiang Chen who was in a daze intentionally or unintentionally, and said to himself: "It's going to be Qixi Festival, Xiaojuan from Grandma Wang's house next door received a silk dress sent by her fiancé who was a layman, which is very good-looking." ”

Sister Cheng also received a silver phoenix hairpin, which was given to her by her husband. The couple has been married for several years, and they are still very affectionate, and every year on the Chinese Valentine's Day, Sister Cheng will receive gifts. ”

"I also want a hairpin! Daoist Jiang, my hairpin was borrowed by you, when you saw the Seventh Young Master, why didn't you remember to ask him for it back? That is the dowry that my mother gave me!"

"Hey, are you listening! Will you give me a gift on the day of Tanabata?"

Jiang Chen turned a deaf ear and was still in a daze. He is immersed in the bloody memories of being embraced by all the soldiers when he exterminated the demon tide, and he can't wait to experience that glory again!

"Smack!" Jun Zhu threw out a red ball in his hand and smashed it into Jiang Chen's chest.

Jiang Chen was stunned: "Why are you smashing me!"

"Ouch!" Jun Zhu glanced at Jiang Chen: "I'm really sorry for Daoist Jiang, the little woman accidentally threw it crooked!

Xiaobai immediately jumped up, picked up the ball, returned to Jun Zhu's side, and wagged his tail to invite credit.

"Good!" Jun Zhu touched Xiaobai's head and praised: "You are more obedient than some people!"

Junzhu picked up the ball and threw it far away from the yard. Without waiting for her to command, Xiaobai immediately ran out of the yard to find the ball.

"Where did the ball come from, it hurts to smash people!" Jiang Chen said.

"Hmph, if you don't give a gift on Tanabata, Miss Ben will make you hurt even more!" Jun Zhu glared at Jiang Chen, then turned around and left.

Jiang Chen sighed and pulled himself back to reality from his memories.

"Anyway, if you're idle, you'll just go to the market and see if there's anything to buy as a gift!" Jiang Chen said secretly in his heart.

He went to the backyard to say hello to Jiang Wu, who was practicing his sword, and then went to the market.

Jiang Chen is now a celebrity in Yunlan Town, although the people don't know what the official position of the Daoist is, but they all call him "Jiang Daoist", or Jiang Shaoxia. Along the way, Jiang Chen greeted almost everyone, and a short distance took more than half an hour.

Jiang Chen came to a gold and silver shop, where all kinds of gold and silver jewelry were displayed, which were dazzling. Jiang Chen had walked in front of this shop countless times before, but he had never come in.

"Daoist Jiang is here, hurry up and be affectionate!I don't know what jewelry Daoist Jiang wants, Qixi Festival is coming, is it a gift for his sweetheart?" The shopkeeper greeted Jiang Chen warmly, but Jiang Chen was a little embarrassed.

"Well, this Dao is mainly a jade hairpin, the more expensive the better!" Jiang Chen opened his mouth very arrogantly. He had brought several ingots of silver in his purse.

The shopkeeper was overjoyed and said, "Please wait a while, and I will take out the treasure of the town store!"

The shopkeeper went to pick up the treasure himself, and a moment later, the shopkeeper came out with a boxy box. This box is exquisitely carved, inlaid with gold and jade, and I am afraid that the box alone is worth a lot of money.

The shopkeeper opened the jade box, took out a red gold phoenix hairpin from it, and introduced: "This hairpin is called Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens! The hairpin body is made of barefoot pure gold, weighing three taels or three dollars; the key is that this phoenix carries a sapphire diamond, but it is an extremely precious gem, and there is no second such big one in the world." ”

"Well, it's very good!" Jiang Chen nodded again and again, very satisfied: "How much?"

The shopkeeper smiled: "If others want to buy it, I may not be willing to cut my love." Since Jiang Dao mainly buys it, as long as he gets the capital back. This gem is worth thirty taels of gold, and as for the hairpin, it should be given to Jiang Dao Master. ”

"Thirty taels of gold!" Jiang Chen's face turned white with fright, one tael of gold is equivalent to fifty taels of official silver, and thirty taels of gold is one thousand five hundred taels of silver, four hundred and fifty thousand yuan, enough to buy grain from dozens of warehouses, enough for hundreds of people to eat for most of their lives!

"What kind of rich and noble family can wear such a precious hairpin! Isn't it tiring to carry the rations of hundreds of people on their heads!" Jiang Chen secretly shook his head in his heart.

When the shopkeeper saw Jiang Chen's face, he guessed his intentions, and immediately he covered the jade box and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if Daoist Jiang doesn't buy it, you can take a look at other jewelry." This hairpin is also good, only three taels of silver. ”

Jiang Chen was not in the mood to look at other hairpins, so he made an excuse and left the gold and silver shop in a gloomy manner.

Walking half the street in frustration, Jiang Chen suddenly saw a miscellaneous shop, and the shopkeeper Lu recognized it as a middle-aged man with six fingers on both hands.

According to the records of "Ten Thousand Demon Genealogy", the six fingers are actually the characteristics of a branch of the demon race, and they are called the six fingered demons. The six-fingered demon is the descendant of the demon clan and the human race, except for the six fingers on the hand, it is almost no different from ordinary people, and it is not too rejected by ordinary people, and even they themselves don't know that they have a little bit of demon blood.

"Ten Thousand Demon Spectrum" also said that the six-fingered demon clan people have six fingers and are mostly skilled craftsmen. The owner of this miscellaneous shop is also a craftsman, and he can make almost any utensil you ask him to make.

"There is!" Jiang Chen's heart moved: "Anyway, it's just on the head, thirty taels of gold and three taels of silver, there is not much difference! )
