Chapter 830: Hearing the World
Bu Xiu reluctantly took out ten Red Yuan Immortal Fruits from the storage bracelet, put them on the table next to him, and muttered, "How can I feel like I've been fooled!"
The man put away the Red Yuan Immortal Fruit and said, "Wait a minute, you'll go and ask the shopkeeper!" turned around and went upstairs down the stairs.
After a while, the shopkeeper went downstairs, looking not very old, thin, with an awl face, and a wide forehead and fat ears. The shopkeeper was not as attentive as the guy, and he didn't say a few polite words after going downstairs, but glanced at a few people, and then said, "A few people, please come with me!" After speaking, he turned around and left, there was a door behind the store, the shopkeeper pushed the door out, and Jiang Xiaobai and a few people followed.
Outside the door is the courtyard, and there are more than a dozen side rooms, and in a few rooms there are still lights, and there are people talking inside. The shopkeeper led them into one of the chambers, and the room was darkly lit, and the shopkeeper made a fire on his fingertips, and with a flick of it, he lit the candle on the table, and the room suddenly became bright, and the furnishings in it were very simple, just a table, a few stools, and looked empty.
The shopkeeper walked to the table, stretched out his arms, grabbed the round table, and turned it hard, and heard a "click", as if touching a mechanism, and then the ground trembled, and a piece of the floor sank, revealing a deep tunnel, and there was a night pearl in the tunnel, illuminating clear steps.
The shopkeeper said, "Please come with me!" After speaking, he walked down the steps first.
Jiang Xiaobai and the others were shocked, so they asked, "Why do you want to go down?
The shopkeeper didn't reply, and said: "Since you are asking about confidential matters, except for me and a few distinguished guests, we will not let the third person hear the slightest, which is also the foundation of our store." ”
Buxiu said: "Exquisite!"
The men walked down the steps, and the floor above their heads returned to its original position, sealing the hole. The tunnel is not long, only three or two steps to the end, at the end is a room, the house is not big, a square zhang, surrounded by stones, put a few chairs on both sides, and put a wooden case at the entrance of the hole.
The shopkeeper walked in, sat down in the wooden case, and stretched out his hand at the same time, "Please take a seat!"
Jiang Xiaobai and the others sat down on the chairs, and Bu Xiu muttered: "How is it like a meeting?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "If you have anything you want to inquire about, it doesn't hurt to say it, there will be no ears on the wall here!"
Buxiu said, "Do you know everything here?"
The shopkeeper said: "It's impossible, but I can say that you can't find out about it from me, and you don't want to inquire outside!"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "Let's inquire about you, you won't leak the news, right?"
The shopkeeper smiled: "Little brother, don't worry, if this happens, our store will not open, you can go out to inquire about the reputation of our store, what you inquire, into my ears, will never leave the mouth again, no matter what you inquire, even if you inquire about my brother's residence, I will not tell my brother, this is the foundation of our store." ”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, "The thing we want to ask is also very simple, where is the amethyst?"
The shopkeeper's face changed, and he laughed hard, and said, "Little brother is joking with me, right? You spend ten pieces of red crystal, just want to find out where there is amethyst? Then why should I accept ten pieces of red crystal from you, I know where there is amethyst, I will pick it up myself." ”
Jiang Xiaobai said: "I didn't mean that, I mean, you tell us where it is abundant."
Amethyst is fine, I don't believe there is no place to produce amethyst in this world?"
The shopkeeper said, "You want to rob it?"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "Can't you?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "With all due respect, in fact, where amethyst is produced, you don't have to spend money to inquire at all, who doesn't know that there are amethyst mines in the hands of the five famous pavilions? In this continent, even the palm-sized amethyst mines have been occupied by those famous factions, since people can occupy the amethyst mine, the strength is naturally not weak, and there are basically masters of the Earth Wonderland to guard them, I see that a few of you want to grab the amethyst mine, with all due respect, it is tantamount to giving up your life!"
Bu Xiu interjected: "Then there is no amethyst ore to grab, it is better to have that kind of soft persimmon!"
The shopkeeper said: "If there are really soft persimmons, it will not be your turn, but if you want to get amethyst, now the five famous pavilions are not issuing a reward, as long as you catch the jade dog golden eagle, there will be a bounty of sixty pieces of amethyst, why don't you try it, so there is no danger at all." ”
The faces of several people changed.
Jiang Xiaobai said: "Jade Dog Golden Eagle?"
The shopkeeper hesitated and said, "Have you seen it, and you will get rich if you see it!"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "I haven't seen it! When did this happen?"
The shopkeeper said: "It seems that you are not from this continent, and you don't even know such a sensational thing?"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "We have lived in the mountains for a long time, and we have just come out of the mountain recently, so we don't know anything about things outside the mountain. ”
The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said, "No wonder, this incident seems to have happened the winter before last, right?"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "The winter before last, did you find the jade dog golden eagle?"
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Anyway, I haven't gotten any news, so I definitely haven't found it yet, and if I do, I won't let you look for it." ”
Jiang Xiaobai took a long breath and said: "Since the five famous pavilions can't find the jade dog golden eagle, with a few of us, if we want to find the jade dog golden eagle, it's just a fool's dream, if we don't look for it, we are still more interested in grabbing the amethyst mine!"
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "If you insist on grabbing the amethyst mine, I can't stop it, after all, this store is only responsible for providing information, and I can also tell you about the amethyst ore of the five famous pavilions, but take 10,000 steps back, even if you have the ability to grab the amethyst mine, this amethyst is very rare, you can't produce a few pieces a day, and it will be shipped away, if you are unlucky, even if you break through other people's amethyst mines, there may not be a single amethyst in it, even if you are lucky, there are at most a few pieces, a little uneconomical!"
Jiang Xiaobai thought about it, took a deep breath, and said, "Is there no other way?"
The shopkeeper pursed his lips and thought for a while, and said, "If you insist on sending you to death, oh no, you insist on robbing it, then it is better to rob the Pipa Cave of the Beiye Sword Pavilion, there should be a lot of amethyst in it!"
Jiang Xiaobai was stunned and said, "Why is there an amethyst in the Pipa Cave?"
The shopkeeper said: "Because it is the treasure house of the Kitano Sword Pavilion, there are not only amethysts in it, but also the rare treasures collected by the Kitano Sword Pavilion for thousands of years, what famous swords and famous swords, precious medicinal materials, cultivation cheats, anyway, the things that the monk wants to get, there are all in it, do a vote, don't do anything for the rest of your life." ”
Jiang Xiaobai said: "Then it must be heavily guarded, right?"
The shopkeeper smiled: "What do you say?"
Jiang Xiaobai took a deep breath and said, "Beiye Sword Pavilion, are you familiar with it?"
The shopkeeper was stunned, "What? You don't plan to let me lead the way, do you?"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "Just draw us a map." ”
The shopkeeper said: "Do our business, if you can't even figure out the Kitano Sword Pavilion, then you don't have to do it, but this will cost you an additional fee!"
Jiang Xiaobai said: "What price?"
The shopkeeper said, "A piece of amethyst!"
Buxiu exclaimed, "What? Just draw a map and ask for an amethyst, you're too dark, aren't you?"
The shopkeeper smiled: "You also know that this is not an ordinary map, ordinary people want to draw it, they have to risk their lives." ”
Bu Xiu remembered Fat San's words, reported his name, you can get a twenty percent discount, and said: "Brother, we were introduced by Fat San, we are all our own people, don't be so dark, be polite." ”
The shopkeeper said, "Which fat three?"
Bu Xiu said: "It's the fat third of Variety Villa! ”
The shopkeeper's face darkened, he snorted coldly, and said, "Since it was introduced by Fat San, then at least two pieces of amethyst, and one less piece is not to be discussed!"
Bu Xiu didn't expect to report the name of the fat three, not only did not reduce the price, but also increased the price, what is the reason?
The shopkeeper snorted coldly and said, "I don't have this kind of friend!"
Bu Xiu was puzzled, could it be that the fat three were usually idle and bored, and put on his appearance to play with his wife?
In fact, two years ago, Fat San was also a friend of the shopkeeper, Fat San could speak well, and he ran to his store to talk to him when he had nothing to do, and also chatted about some friendships. But this shopkeeper used to be obsessed with the cloud rumor of Chunhualou, and he would go to prostitute with a little spare money in hand, but two years ago, the fat three of the Variety Villa made a windfall for some reason, and he didn't go on the road, and the cloud rumor was raised, and others couldn't prostitute it, so that he had no bed to show his martial arts, and he usually stayed in this cold and deserted shop, and it was inevitable to feel empty and lonely.
But how can outsiders know about this?
Jiang Xiaobai said at this time: "You also know that we don't have amethyst, and if we have amethyst, we won't ask you these things, is Hongyuan Immortal Fruit okay?"
The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "It's okay, but at least two thousand red yuan immortal fruits!"
Bu Xiu jumped up again, and said hurriedly: "You go and grab it, it's really a lion's mouth, I have two thousand red yuan immortal fruits, I won't go to exchange for amethyst by myself, and I want to find you?"
The shopkeeper smiled: "Amethyst, this thing is priceless, even if there are shops willing to exchange it for you, it will be three or five yuan at most, if there are more, few shops can take it out, and the shops that can take it out have been robbed by others." ”
Bu Xiu also talked about it, of course, he also understood this truth, if he could exchange it for amethyst, they would have so many red yuan immortal fruits, and they wouldn't use it here. looked at Jiang Xiaobai and said, "Do you really want to give it to him?"
Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, "Give it to him!"
Although Bu Xiu still has a lot of red yuan fairy fruits, he is also a little reluctant, so he directly took out a storage bracelet, threw it on the wooden case, and said: "In this storage bracelet is two thousand red yuan fairy fruits, you click on it, and even the storage bracelet will be given to you." ”
