Unsheathed Sword Chapter 20: Trouble

Bai Xiaoyu saw that there were also stones in it, so she became competitive, took out the piece that Xu Huaigu gave her, handed it over, and asked the shopkeeper, "How about you help take a look at this stone?" ”

The boss was a young man, dressed in a Confucian shirt, and was reading a book, when he heard someone asking, he looked up, and saw that he was asking about the stone, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately took the bright red stone and put it in front of him to look at it carefully.

As if he didn't think the light was good, he went outside again, pointed the stone at the sun, and carefully examined the texture and impurities inside.

The stone shines brighter in the sunlight, and the texture inside is extremely exquisite, and the gold threads are weaving through it, and it follows the order of the rules, which is just right. The stone is very heavy and solid, and you can see little by little particles reflecting the light in the sun, which is very beautiful.

It's a great piece!

The man came from a scholarly family, and his ancestors have always made a living by selling strange stones everywhere in the mountain, and he has been exposed to them since he was a child, and he is very fond of stones. And this stone, although it is not the best stone he has ever seen, can also be ranked among the top five, and he can be regarded as determined to obtain this stone!

After watching it for a long time, he put it down with excitement.

The man knows that the more he wants, the more he can't reveal his thoughts. He pretended to return the stone to Bai Xiaoyu casually, took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and asked her, "Is the girl also a lover of stones?" ”

Bai Xiaoyu shook his head and said, "This is a gift from my friend, and I don't know how this stone is, so I came to ask you." ”

The man smiled and said, "So that's the case, although the girl's stone is beautiful, but it is very unfortunate that there is a carp whisker in it that we talked about, which is a big taboo for appreciating stones." With this whisker, no matter how beautiful the stone is, the material can only be considered inferior. ”

"Girl, please look", he held up the stone to the sun, and the sun shone a long golden line in the stone, "this is the carp whiskers, across the whole stone, if the girl buys a stone in the future, remember to be careful, don't be deceived by others." ”

In fact, the long golden thread is just a man who puts the stone in a special position, and the gold threads overlap to look like that, but in fact, it is not a carp whisker, but a rare beauty silk in the stone, which is very valuable.

Bai Xiaoyu took a closer look, it was indeed the case, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and was ready to put the stone away.

The man took another sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said to her, "Would the girl consider selling this stone?" Although it has flaws, it is also quite valuable. How about I give ten taels of silver? ”

Bai Xiaoyu raised his chin, frowned and thought for a while, and asked him a little puzzled: "How much is ten taels of silver, I don't know." ”

The man's eyelids twitched. There are still people in this world who don't even know how much silver is worth, could it be that it came out of an old mountain forest?

He said, "The girl doesn't know the silver, but the copper coin should know, ten taels of silver can be worth a thousand copper coins." ”

Bai Xiaoyu found that he had no concept of money in the real world at all, and he didn't even know how much copper coins were worth, so he didn't bother with this problem. She resolutely refused, saying, "I don't sell it, it was given to me by someone else." ”

The man was a little distressed, since the stone was given by someone else, not to talk about the value, the meaning was different, he could only raise the price, hoping that the price was the girl's heart.

"What does the girl think of thirty taels of silver?"

Bai Xiaoyu put away the stone, shook his head arrogantly and said, "I won't sell it for any amount of money." ”

She suddenly turned her head to Li Zi and asked her, "Didn't Xu Huaigu give you a stone, you can also take it out and let this gentleman estimate it." ”

Li Zi was embarrassed for a moment, and then took out the half-emerald green and half-fiery stone from a small bag.

The shopkeeper was shocked and stunned after just one glance, and said repeatedly: "This stone ...... Definitely the best of the best! This color alone is worth at least fifty taels of silver! ”

He was the one who loved the stone, he was very excited, and he wanted to reach out to touch it, Li Zi was startled by his sudden action, and quickly put the stone away, looking at the man with a wary face.

The man also realized that he had lost his temper, and quickly apologized: "I'm really sorry, I was too excited just now, that's why I was disrespectful to the little girl, and I ask for your forgiveness." ”

Bai Xiaoyu stood in front of Li Zi, and seeing that his apology was sincere, he said: "For the sake of your sincerity, I won't care, let's go." After speaking, he pulled Li Zi to leave.

"Wait!" The man shouted, begging, "If you can touch the stone for me, just touch it, and I'll give you a stone from the store." ”

Bai Xiaoyu looked down at Li Zi and asked for her opinion.

Li Zi shook his head resolutely. This stone has only been touched by Xu Huaigu and her, but it can't be given to others.

Bai Xiaoyu said: "See, the little girl is unwilling, which means that you have no fate with this stone." Needless to say, don't leave it at that. ”

The group followed, leaving the shopkeeper frowning and slapping the table helplessly, the teapot lid clanged by him.

I finally saw a rare treasure, and it slipped away under my nose, which is really a big regret in life.

Before the man could finish his heartache, a man in black walked into the shop, but he didn't look at the stone and quickly walked up to the man.

The black hat covers the face of the visitor, making it impossible to see the face and expression.

The man first looked at the man in black in surprise, and suddenly felt a chill. He knew that it was not a good thing, so he had to subconsciously run away, and before he could make any moves, the short knife of the man in black had already reached his neck.

He was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out, watching the bright blade resting on his neck, and the fear of death pervaded his body.

The man in black had a hoarse voice: "Tell me what you just did, and every word, and don't miss anything." Otherwise...... "the blade is closer," you'll have to go to hell. ”

The man cowered, and opened up his conversation with them.

At the same time, in a luxurious restaurant in Binxi, four people were eating with their mouths full of oil, and they were very happy.

Xu Huaigu's mouth was stuffed with chicken, and his speech was not very clear: "Little lamb, this is too good, is it so good, are the dishes outside so good?" ”

Little Sheep is the name of the Taoist priest, Xu Huaigu felt that the name of the Little Sheep Mountain was too long, and it was always weird to call, so he simply called him Little Sheep, anyway, the Taoist priest didn't care.

The Taoist priest was trying to deal with a roast lamb chop in front of him, carefully picking the meat on the bones with his teeth, and his appearance was extremely ugly, so he didn't care about him at all, but Xu Huaigu didn't plan to ask for an answer.

Li Zi is also eating like crazy, walking in the mountains for several days, his face is green when he eats dry food, and of course he has to eat a full meal with such a big meal.

Bai Xiaoyu looked at the group of starving ghosts on the table speechlessly. Forget about two children, you are so cheesy to eat as an immortal Taoist priest from Taihua Mountain? My nose was covered in oil...... Wow, still wiping your mouth with your sleeve?

Hey...... It's disgusting.

She began to roll her eyes at the Taoist priest, the Taoist priest pretended not to see, she turned again, the Taoist priest still didn't look at her, the white eyes were about to roll to the sky, the Taoist priest was still eating lamb chops, ignoring her.

She was puffing up, but she still ate in small bites. Human beings are shameless, our little snake demon still has to be imaged, at least in this regard, it has already surpassed them.

Everyone was eating happily, but there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps at the door of the restaurant. A young man rushed in, looking arrogant, threw the sword on his waist directly onto an empty table, and shouted: "Xiao Er is drinking!" ”

Immediately, the whole restaurant looked over.

This swordsman didn't care about everyone's eyes at all, and thought that he was very arrogant, so he took out a chair and sat down, cocked Erlang's legs, and commanded Xiao Er, who nodded his waist: "Come to two taels of cooked beef, two jars of wine, the wine must be the best!" ”

Xiao Er got the order, turned around and went to prepare, and kept muttering in his heart: "There is a poor swordsman again, and he insists on pretending to be arrogant, I really don't know why." "I thought so in my heart, but I still had a lot of respect for the swordsman.

There are many such swordsmen on the rivers and lakes, and he often entertains, wandering around the rivers and lakes with a lot of blood. When you have money, you spend a lot of money, and you eat and drink in the restaurant, just to have a good time. If you don't have money, you can nibble on two pieces of baked bread on the side of the road, and you can swallow it even in the river.

Dian Xiaoer once had such an idea of wandering the world, but he was flattened by reality and became an ordinary person.

What teenager has never had a sword and wine, a dream of beauty and rivers and lakes in his heart?

The swordsman stood with long eyebrows, held the scabbard in his hand, and his face was cold, looking around, his eyes finally stopped on Xu Huaigu's table.

The Taoist priest saw through the swordsman's cultivation at a glance. The martial artist of the Three Realms, holding a sword in his hand, treats himself as a sword cultivator? The Taoist priest has always been dismissive of this kind of person, and he just found a place to shout that there were monsters, and a dozen such swordsmen would immediately compete to kill the demons.

The swordsman was staring at them closely, his brows twisted into knots, and his gaze finally fell on Bai Xiaoyu and stopped moving.

Bai Xiaoyu was so panicked by him that he didn't know how to place his hands and feet, so he stopped his chopsticks and took a sip of tea to relieve the embarrassment.

The swordsman suddenly attacked: "In broad daylight, there are demons drinking and eating in public in the restaurant, are there any rules in the world?" ”

The word demon immediately caused an uproar in the restaurant, and everyone followed his eyes to look at Xu Huaigu and the people at the table, with fear and curiosity.

The swordsman seemed to enjoy the feeling of being in the limelight, raised his sword across his chest, and said imposingly, "Bold and demonic!" In the past, you didn't have to do evil, but today when you meet someone from me, Wei, you will be put on the spot to correct the Fa! ”

Bai Xiaoyu is very uncomfortable, it feels bad to be framed, he has never done anything hurtful, but he has to be scolded loudly in public, wronged by the dead snake.

The swordsman didn't care so much, stepped on the table with one foot, pointed the tip of the sword at Bai Xiaoyu, and said arrogantly: "Death!" ”

After speaking, a kick flew out of the air, the tip of the sword pointed directly at Bai Xiaoyu, and a sword stabbed out.

Bai Xiaoyu saw that the situation was not good, so he wanted to dodge, but suddenly remembered that the Taoist priest was beside him, and suddenly had a bad idea, wanting to see what he would do, so he simply didn't hide.

The swordsman saw that she was motionless, and he was puzzled, but the sword had already been stabbed out, and there was no reason to turn it back, and the blade of the sword was still forward.

The Taoist priest sighed helplessly, picked up a bowl on the table, threw it out with the tea, and smashed it on the blade of the sword. The tip of the sword was deflected, just along Bai Xiaoyu's forearm, and stabbed on the floor.

The ceramic bowl fell to the ground and crumbled to pieces. A large bowl of tea was sprinkled on the table and the food was a mess.

The swordsman turned his head and looked fiercely at the Taoist priest.

This beam is considered to be finished.
