Chapter 141: Choosing a Secret Technique
The hut in front of me, which is less than five zhang square, is where the strange scripture scrolls are stored. The house is surrounded by shelves on all sides, there are no windows, and only a vent above it is used for ventilation and light lighting.
At the top of the shelf is a lone book, which is locked with a black box and a label is attached to the box.
The others are neatly stacked on the shelves, occupying a total of three large shelves, which shows that the Hengxi Chamber of Commerce has prepared for this summer auction.
Steward Xu pointed to these and said, "The third shopkeeper said, you can pick three books here." You can only come in like this once, and there is no chance of returning, but you must keep your eyes open and choose carefully. ”
With that, he and the guard took two steps back and let the boy choose.
Only Yan Saburo could hear it, and Chitose snorted: "It's not sincere, and I won't send anyone to explain." "Yan Saburo has only just started practicing, even if there are so many secret books and methods in front of him, he won't choose. Each person's physique, foundation, and affinity are different, and it may not be possible to practice just three books, and it may not be easy to use after practice.
If it is at the sales meeting, it will be explained in detail by a special auctioneer, so that it is convenient for buyers to distinguish, Ma Hongyue is too chicken thief, and only sent a Xu steward who knows nothing about the secret method to lead the way. Chitose said angrily: "You read it to me." A spirit control array has been set up here to prevent others from using the Five Ghost Handling Technique to steal things. As soon as I show up, an alarm is triggered. "During the day, she can only be a spirit.
She paused for a moment, and then said, "It's really better to leave this job to Duan Fang to do." "In the Longyou Chamber of Commerce, Duan Fang explained to Yan Saburo well, and the book "Dragon Feeding Recipe" was bought at that time, "In addition, I guess that because Duan Fang is close to you, Ma Hongyue also has a tentative mind for you." Hmph, no matter, this time I must make him die of pain!"
There is no shortage of orphans like Yan Saburo in this world, but there are very few people who can go to the Chamber of Commerce as an accountant and have the courage to live alone in a murderous house. What's more, Yan Saburo also plans to practice by himself, and considering all the weirdness about him, even if Ma Hongyue personally recruited him into the Chamber of Commerce, he is now suspicious.
At that moment, Yan Saburo looked at the name of the book and read it down one by one.
"The Explanation of the Strange Classics and Pillars" ......"
"Don't!"
"Minghua Yin Qi?" Yan Saburo seemed to be talking to himself, "The price is very high. "Such a thin copy costs five hundred and fifty taels of silver.
"Heh, that's used to bluff the boss. Yin is the meaning of Yin Virtue. Chitose sneered, "It is said that it is a scripture, but it preaches doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, without asking for anything in return." Deshan is of no use to you right now!"
Yan Saburo originally picked it up and flipped through two pages, but when he heard the words, he stuffed it back again. He knew in his heart that the Asura did not cultivate virtue and goodness, and he must have scoffed at this book, and he may have spoken too much. But she was right about one thing: with a wooden bell in his hand, he was not afraid of karma, so virtue and goodness were really of little use to him now, who was in dire need of external powers.
Yan Saburo is unhurried here, and he has to read words while watching. Steward Xu waited on the side for half an hour, and finally couldn't help but say, "San Lang, have you picked it well?"
"Not yet. Yan Saburo turned around and smiled at him, his face was full of childish innocence, "There are too many books, I'm picky, if only someone could explain it." ”
"Oh, this ......" Steward Xu didn't understand what Ma Hongyue meant, but he remembered that the third shopkeeper said that except for the guards, no third person was allowed to enter the warehouse, so the auctioneer couldn't bring it in. "Then you choose slowly, choose slowly. Turning his head, he asked the guard to bring him a chair.
After another half hour, he sat down in his chair with a few more snacks at hand, and felt more and more that he had made a wise decision. The stinky boy spent so long here that he didn't even eat lunch.
Yan Saburo has already picked out a sword recipe with a very peculiar name, called "Tiger Fight". It is prominently positioned on the three-tier shelf, in a center-to-left position on the third shelf.
Chitose asked him to start with the book recipe in the middle: "People are not stupid, although this is not a grocery store shelf, but the best things will definitely be placed in the most conspicuous position, easy to take and record." If you want to go to the corner to find a treasure, you will underestimate the appraiser of the Chamber of Commerce. Let's start here and save us time. ”
Yan Saburo picked up "Tiger Fight", this booklet is very thin, only more than 20 pages, he quickly read the first few sentences, and the last few sentences, Chitose clapped and said: "Okay, that's it." ”
The sword technique is chosen, and the next step is the body technique. According to Chitose's true knowledge that "if you can't beat it, you must be able to run", Yan Saburo finally chose "Getaway", after practice, he can usually be in shape, and he has the ability to miss a hit and escape thousands of miles at critical moments.
The sword technique and body technique have been selected, but it is the third book that takes the most time.
What kind of secret technique should Yan Saburo choose? There is no direction to be determined.
Chitose couldn't sneak out to inspect it in the light, so he could only listen to him read one by one, which took countless hours.
In the end, she vacillated between the two strange scriptures, "Kaiyang" and "Qingyu Secret Record".
The former is a secret technique that reverses true power and bursts in a short period of time, and has a short-term bonus to strength and body magic, while the latter contains many treacherous secret techniques, especially Yin Gu, voodoo, and ghost magic. In the eyes of the disciples of the Sha Sect, this is probably a ninth-rate thing, a trick that specializes in harming people.
However, Chitose was very interested, according to her original words: "You don't have to practice, but you must know it in your heart, so that you can calculate and ambush in the future." ”
She is very fond of both things, but it is Yan Saburo who has the idea.
In the kung fu of Steward Xu taking a nap with his chin propped up, he finally chose "The Secret Record of Qingyu". Chitose asked why, and he only replied with two words:
Playful.
Chitose dumped.
Indeed, in the eyes of a ten-year-old boy, these secret techniques with all kinds of tricks and effects are not the same, which are much more interesting than a fixed exercise.
This kid doesn't have any toys, so let him play with this. She thought irresponsibly.
The manager of the chamber Xu yawned for a long time: "I have chosen, don't regret it?"
Yan Saburo took the book in his hand and nodded his head heavily: "Hmm!"
Steward Xu then led him back to the main building.
Ma San's shopkeeper had something to go out today, so Yan Saburo was directly led to the big boss Yang Hengxi. This is Ma Hongyue's decision, so the book selected by Yan Saburo must be handed over to the owner for review.
Yang Hengxi's thick eyebrows raised Lao Gao: "These three books, are you sure?"
Yan Saburo nodded.
Yang Hengxi pointed to "Tiger Fight" and said, "You probably didn't think it was more expensive, so you chose it, right?"
