Chapter 3: Bloodstone
It is said that after Cheng Hao and Rhubarb came out of the hospital, it was early the next morning.
Because Rhubarb and Cheng Hao have made an equal contract, Cheng Hao can clearly feel Rhubarb's inner thoughts.
"Boy, don't snoop into my mind if you have nothing to do, be careful that the emperor bites you. Suddenly, a voice sounded in Cheng Hao's heart.
Cheng Hao was startled, looked down at Rhubarb, and asked, "Rhubarb, were you talking just now?" ”
Rhubarb glared at Cheng Hao, "Boy, this emperor and you have made an equal contract, and we can communicate through our hearts and minds in the future, what do you want to say to this emperor, just tell this emperor in your heart, you don't need to say it." ”
"It's amazing, I'll try it. Rhubarb, rhubarb, can you hear me?" Cheng Hao thought in his heart.
"Are you annoying, this time you are lucky, if it weren't for the fact that you saved the emperor's life, the emperor would not have made such a precious equal contract with you, you must know that each divine beast can only sign a contract with one person in his life, which is really cheap for you. Rhubarb looked reluctant.
"Thank you Rhubarb, if you regret it at any time, you can break the contract, I will not object. ”
Rhubarb glanced at Cheng Hao and said: "You think that the contract is determined by you and solved if you want, once the contract is signed, there is only one way to unravel it, that is, the other party who signed the contract is dead, what an idiot." ”
"Oh, I see, I thought you could break the contract at any time, so I'm relieved, and you can follow me with peace of mind in the future. Cheng Hao smiled evilly.
"The Emperor @#¥%......" At this moment, there are thousands of grass and mud horses galloping in Rhubarb's heart. Rhubarb did not continue to discuss this topic with Cheng Hao, but spit out a crimson stone from his mouth. After the stone landed, Rhubarb pouted and motioned for Cheng Hao to pick up the stone on the ground.
Cheng Hao was confused and didn't know what Rhubarb was doing, but he still picked up the red stones on the ground. Then Rhubarb's voice came to Cheng Hao's mind: "Boy, this piece is a bloodstone, it takes three hundred living human essence blood, and it will take more than three hundred years to form such a small piece under the glacier in the extremely cold land, so it is extremely rare, I don't know if there are people who know the goods in your world, but you still try to sell it, this emperor doesn't want to wander and beg with you." ”
When Cheng Hao heard Rhubarb's words, he looked at the stone in his hand suspiciously, and communicated with Rhubarb: "I don't think there is anything peculiar about this stone, can it really be sold for money?"
Rhubarb glanced at Cheng Hao with disdain and said, "Where did you come from so much nonsense, if you want to sell it, you will sell it, if you don't want to go, give it back to me." ”
"I'll go, I'll go, can't I? After speaking, Cheng Hao took Rhubarb to a jewelry store in the city.
When he arrived at the door of the jewelry store, Cheng Hao took the bloodstone and wandered in front of the door and was reluctant to enter. "Hey, I said kid, you can't get in, I think you're so entangled?"
"I wonder if I'm going to be kicked out if I'm dressed like this. Cheng Hao said to Rhubarb with some concern.
"What are you worried about, being kicked out to prove that they don't know the goods, then I don't want to sell the bloodstone to him, go inside, trust me. ”
"Yes. Cheng Hao nodded, and walked boldly to the jewelry store, he was just about to enter, two fancy welcome ladies at the door stopped him, one of them said to Cheng Hao: "Where are the beggars, this is not a place for you to beg, go away quickly." ”
It's not the first time Cheng Hao has encountered such a thing, so he had the courage to say to her: "I'm not here to beg, I have a gem to sell to you, so please let me in." ”
"Oh, you still have gems, show them to me. Miss Welcome looked at Cheng Hao with some contempt and said.
Cheng Hao did not hesitate, handed the bloodstone in his hand to Miss Yingbin, Miss Yingbin stayed in the jewelry store for not a day or two, or some knowledgeable goods, since she saw the bloodstone for the first time, she knew that this stone was not ordinary, so she couldn't wait to take the bloodstone, the more she looked at it, the more sure this stone was priceless, so she wanted to make this stone her own, and was thinking about how to deceive the bloodstone.
"Big sister, have you finished reading it, return the gem to me when you finish reading it, and let me in. Cheng Hao saw that the welcome lady stared at the bloodclotting stone for a long time and had no intention of returning it, so he asked.
Cheng Hao's words brought the contemplative welcome lady back to her senses, changed her previous attitude, and said to Cheng Hao with a smile: "Little brother, your stone is just made of ordinary glass, it's not worth much, or else, my sister looks at the stone quite beautiful, you might as well sell it to your sister, my sister will give you two hundred yuan, do you think it's okay." ”
Two hundred yuan is simply an astronomical amount for Cheng Hao, who makes a living by begging, he didn't think that the stone that Rhubarb gave him could be sold, but now someone is willing to buy it, and is willing to pay two hundred yuan, Cheng Hao subconsciously wanted to nod and agree.
"Boy, you are stupid, you can't sell bloodstone to her. Rhubarb's voice suddenly appeared in Cheng Hao's mind.
"Why. Cheng Hao asked.
"I said you're stupid, you're really stupid, she obviously saw the value of this bloodstone, and wanted to trick you into selling it to her at a low price, and you couldn't even see it. Rhubarb saw Miss Yingbin's thoughts at a glance, and tried his best to dissuade Cheng Hao from selling the bloodstone to her.
Hearing what Rhubarb said, Cheng Hao finally understood, looked at the expectant welcome lady and said, "Big sister, I'm sorry, I can't sell this stone to you, please return it to me and let me in." ”
Seeing that Cheng Hao was so ignorant of current affairs, a trace of disappointment flashed in Miss Yingbin's eyes, but she still said to Cheng Hao step by step: "Little brother, you see that this stone is useless in your hands, and it can't be eaten, so it's better to sell it to my sister, or my sister will add another hundred yuan to you, what do you think." ”
Seeing that Miss Yingbin was so eager to get this bloodstone, Cheng Hao believed more and more what Rhubarb said, and said very firmly: "I won't sell this gem to you, and I won't buy it, you give it back to me, I'm leaving." ”
Seeing that Cheng Hao was so ignorant of current affairs, the welcome lady obviously lost her patience, and said to Cheng Hao viciously: "You little beggar, don't be ignorant of current affairs, I am willing to spend three hundred yuan to buy this stone from you, let alone three hundred now, I will not give you three yuan, you get out, otherwise I will call the security guard." "Miss Welcome saw that she couldn't cheat, so she came directly to Ming to rob it.
"If you want me to go, you can return the stone to me first. Cheng Hao didn't want to entangle with her more, and wanted to leave after getting the bloodstone.
"I don't see any stones, get out of here, don't affect our business." After saying that, the welcome lady secretly stuffed the bloodstone into her pocket, ignored Cheng Hao, turned her head and walked towards the store.
