Volume 9 Gu Zheng Street
Guzheng Street, is an ordinary street, at least from the outside looks like this, the street is not long, you can see the head at a glance, although there are a lot of stalls, but there are not many guests, and the merchants also seem listless, there is no shouting to solicit business, even if there are guests to come to the door and do not show much enthusiasm, and even ignore it, the whole street is clear and clear, if it is not for a street sign at the entrance of the street, Ming Xuan doubts whether it is a mistake.
"How's that? Doesn't it feel weird? Haoyue could see Mingxuan's doubts.
"I've just entered the street, but I've already changed my understanding of the market. Ming Xuan did not deny his doubts.
"This street has always been like this, and we've long been surprised by it, in fact, there's nothing decent here except for this decent street name. Haoyue smiled and led Mingxuan into the street.
The next scene made Ming Xuan even more dumbfounded, there are carvings for sale here, and the carvings I have seen in the past require fine carving, lifelike, or far-reaching meaning, it's good here, put a few pieces of wood randomly, A few stones are even sculptures, and the price is extremely high, you can buy fine works outside; here also sell ordinary objects, combs are made of wood horns, here are made of iron, baskets are made of bamboo, here are made of iron sheets; here are also bought weapons, either strange shapes, or broken blades, there is no decent, there are really calligraphy and paintings for sale here, but the things painted are unknown, I don't know what the paintings are after looking at them for a long time, and the things written are also messy, either there are only one or two words, or I don't know what is written, and I don't know what is written, which is completely out of tune; what makes Mingxuan speechless is that there are indeed dung sellers here。
"How do you feel after watching it for so long?" Haoyue looked at Ming Xuan's expression and couldn't help but want to laugh.
"To put it elegantly, it's called an eye-opener, and to put it vulgarly, what kind of thing is it!" Ming Xuan could barely describe it in words.
At first glance, when she heard the usual elegant Mingxuan's foul mouth, Haoyue immediately laughed and fell back and back, unable to close her mouth, and the beautiful laughter like wind chimes spread to every corner of Guzheng Street, provoking these strange merchants who sold strange things to look sideways.
"It's vulgar, but it's aptly described, and the first time I came here, I was in the same mood as you. Finally, Haoyue finally suppressed her smile, but the smile on her face did not decrease.
"Then what kind of mood do you feel now?" Ming Xuan asked curiously, he couldn't see anything anyway.
"I still can't see anything here, but the master said that there is a lot of mystery here, those so-called sculptures, in fact, are just the blanks of sculpture, the black wood is called Xuantie wood, hard as iron, but it will not rust, it will not rot for thousands of years, it is an excellent material for sculpture, and the stone is also like this, it is a rare material; , The woven basket is about the same weight as ordinary, but the durability is much higher, and it will not wear out for ten years, and those weapons look very weird, but the feel is excellent, it is easy to get started, once practiced, and people are overwhelmed, and those broken blades are actually famous weapons before, but then unfortunately they were damaged, but they are still considered good, there are many famous works in calligraphy and painting, your pair of words is the master bought in that stall, of course, there are a lot of useless things here, which is a personal vision。 Haoyue said that she naturally does not have such knowledge, these are the experiences accumulated by Ma Zhiwen for many years of shopping.
"The world is so big, there are no surprises, I can be regarded as an eye-opener. Mingxuan had to be convinced.
"Little doll, since you are so right, then you can take a look at my goods, see what you can see, as long as you can say one or two, I will give it to you!" A vendor next to him was immediately interested when he heard Haoyue comment.
When the two of them heard the sound, Ming Xuan immediately smiled bitterly: It seems that the road is really narrow, this vendor is the one who made trouble in Wangyue Tower yesterday, but Ming Xuan turned his back to him when he made a move, so he didn't recognize Ming Xuan.
"Hey, I haven't seen you, and I haven't seen these things sold, you're new here, right?" Haoyue often accompanies Ma Zhiwen to hang around here, and she is very familiar with these vendors.
"It's true that it hasn't been open for a long time, but the little doll has such a sharp eye, come to me to take a look, and you don't take a penny!" the old man said heroically, but his eyes were numb and he looked at the two of them, and he could see that the two of them were rich, saying that they were for appreciating items, but in fact they were also for soliciting business.
"Just look at it, but you can't blame me if you don't see it!" Haoyue is not a master who is afraid of things, and after following Ma Zhiwen for so long, she has also learned a lot, and she is confident that she can deal with it.
When I entered the store, the things that this old man sold were even more strange, there was a mess, conch shells, pebbles, bones, unknown flowers and plants, and a bunch of things that I didn't know what they were.
"This ......" Haoyue looked at it for a long time, but she still couldn't say a word.
"What's the matter, little doll, don't you like anything?" the old man looked proud, and others were happy that they didn't like their own things.
Ming Xuan also looked at it for a long time, and he really didn't see anything special about these things, they seemed to be ordinary objects, he picked up a piece of jade and looked at it carefully.
This is a piece of blue and white jade, it looks like a piece of jade blank, without any ornamentation, extremely ordinary, as if picked up in the jade pile, without any pondering, but it is very warm in the hand, and it feels very comfortable, Ming Xuan pinched it twice unnaturally, but it was this unnatural force, and a strange scene appeared! In this jade, it seemed that a great resistance was born in an instant, forming a counterattack against Ming Xuan, Ming Xuan suddenly felt numb in his hand, and almost dropped the jade.
"What's going on?" Ming Xuan's expression didn't change, but his heart immediately set off a storm.
In order to verify, Ming Xuan pinched the jade again, and sure enough, a force of resistance struck again, making Ming Xuan a little unable to hold it.
"How so? This jade seems to be alive......! Could it be the legendary magic weapon?" Ming Xuan's mind raced, and a bold hypothesis was born.
Once assumed like this, Ming Xuan couldn't hold it back at all, Ming Xuan was already at the peak of his ability, his internal force and body were gradually fused, and at this stage, he had basically fused, and his body had begun to gradually breed spiritual power, although it was still relatively weak and embarrassing, but it was enough to try this jade.
Thinking of this, Ming Xuan carefully controlled the spiritual power, swam from the palm of his hand to the jade, and wanted to borrow the spiritual power to find out, due to the reason that the spiritual power was rebounded due to the force, the spiritual power used by Ming Xuan was extremely small, and he was afraid that he would not be able to bear it when he was counterattacked.
Sure enough, when Ming Xuan tried to infiltrate the spiritual power into the jade, a powerful counterattack burst out from inside the jade! Directly dispersed Ming Xuan's spiritual power, and counterattacked along the spiritual power, Ming Xuan was already prepared, and immediately cut off the connection between them!
"It's so dangerous!" Ming Xuan was shocked, if he hadn't cut off contact in time, the powerful counterattack of the jade stone might directly seriously injure Ming Xuan, or even die!
"What's the matter? This little brother has taken a fancy to this piece of jade?" Seeing that Ming Xuan was holding the jade and looking at it for a long time, the old man asked curiously.
"Well, I think it's pretty good, I don't know what the price is?" The old man's cultivation is also at the level of the second and third order, naturally he can't see the mystery of this jade, if the Dao is too broken, he will definitely not sell it, and even set off a bloody storm It is not certain, you must know that the magic weapon is like a rare treasure for the cultivator, and it is strange if it does not cause crazy robbery.
"Since the son likes it, it's good to have a hundred taels of silver. "The old man is a good person, seeing that Mingxuan took the jade and looked at it for a long time, he should have liked this thing very much, and immediately sat on the ground and raised the price.
"What? one hundred taels! In an ordinary jade shop, a piece of high-quality white marble is only forty or fifty taels, and you actually cost a hundred taels for a piece of jade that has no carving and poor color!"
"I'm sorry, this is Guzheng Street, I won't bargain, if you think it's expensive, go to the jade store to buy it." The old man looked indifferent, but his eyes still stayed on Ming Xuan.
"I'll look at the others. Ming Xuan smiled, put the jade down, and turned to something else.
Of course, Mingxuan is not a fool, if he buys it without hesitation, the old man will feel that he is selling cheaply, either sit on the ground and start the price, or simply not sell, if he immediately bargains and proves that he really likes it, the old man will definitely bite the price, but now that he has put the things down, the old man will not be able to touch the transparent Xuan's thoughts.
Mingxuan is not stingy with this money, mainly because he doesn't want to buy this thing too shockingly, so as not to attract too much attention from others and cause extraneous branches.
Sure enough, the old man also secretly picked up the piece of jade and looked at it, but he really didn't find anything abnormal, and put it down stupidly, it seems that he didn't find the true mystery of the jade.
Ming Xuan tried everything again in the same way, but he didn't find anything like that again, and he felt a sense of loss in his heart, and Hao Yue was still trying to study it, trying to see something, but judging from her frowning brows, it should be nothing.
"Well, forget it, I can't see anything, let's go. After trying various methods, Haoyue still found nothing, so she had to give up, and Mingxuan did not hesitate, turned around and walked out.
"Childe, slow down!" the old man immediately stopped the two who were walking out.
"What's the matter with the old man?" Ming Xuan was overjoyed, but his face did not change.
"Since that piece of jade boy likes it, I also love the beauty of adults, how about selling fifty taels to you?" the old man said with a sigh, but his eyes were fixed on Ming Xuan.
"I know you can't hold your breath. Ming Xuan secretly said, the reason why he deliberately left heartily was that he ate the old man, since he was not even willing to pay for the meal, although it was caused by his strange temper, but he must be a stingy person, before he found out the true value of this jade, he could sell it for ten taels of silver to make money, how could he miss such an opportunity to make money, so Ming Xuan deliberately pretended to be indifferent, and when he saw that Haoyue was leaving, he also turned around and left.
"If you are willing to give up your love, then thirty taels of silver, otherwise forget it. Ming Xuan said further, but his eyes were already looking out.
"Alas, okay, okay, it's not too early, let's take it as a closed business, sell it to you!" the old man said bitterly, but the smile in his eyes couldn't be concealed, but he didn't know that Mingxuan's smile was even worse, but it was hidden more deeply.
"Dare to ask the old man, where did this jade come from?" Ming Xuan handed over the silver tael, pretending to ask casually.
"I accidentally picked it up in a mountain stream once. The old man took the money and smiled.
"Oh, I see, I don't know if it's in that mountain, I'll go and see it, and make a little fortune by the way. Ming Xuan asked with a smile.
"It's in Mingcui Mountain, if you're interested, you can go and have a look. The old man said generously, he had already searched the place where he picked up the jade, and he was not afraid that Ming Xuan would look for it again.
