On the same day on November 1, the 35th year of Tianbao, it was far away in Jiangning Mansion, thousands of miles away from Yehuang City, Kyoto.

The oppressive cold air could not bring a snow, but turned into showers of rain, pouring the bitter cold on people's bodies, and their hearts were depressed, and there was an indescribable depression and sadness.

Duan Qianqiu's mansion is by the Qinhuai River. He is delicate and handsome, with a long body, tall and tall, with a chic and calm demeanor and a graceful demeanor. On this day, he stood on top of the high-rise building in the mansion, looking at the cold water of the Qingjiang River from afar, from far to near, and passed by in a long way.

At this time, the housekeeper in the house came to report: "Son, the flying pigeon over there in Guangling Mansion has sent a message, and the blood jade Buddha hand of Xingxiang Jade Workshop has arrived, and it is inviting buyers from all over the world to bid." ”

"When was the invitation list posted?"

"The day before yesterday. ”

"Well, got it. Duan Qianqiu only replied lightly, but the blood on his body seemed to be boiling, and he had waited too long for this day.

It's been three years! One of the most important things in the blood list, black jade blood ginseng, finally made him wait!

He pushed open the closed door of the attic, the door was as warm as spring, and in the purple tent light veil, there was a gentle beauty with moth eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and an apricot face and peach cheeks, only to see her frowning tightly and covering her chest, as if she was enduring great pain.

Duan Qianqiu passed, sat on the bed, hugged her gently, after a while, the woman calmed down, she looked at Duan Qianqiu, and said softly: "You have this expression again, are you going to leave again? The last time you left was a year, how long will it be this time?"

Duan Qianqiu's eyes showed reluctance to pain, but after a while, he changed to a hearty smile and said: "No matter how long, I will come back, the black jade blood ginseng has reappeared in the rivers and lakes, I only bought a piece of root whiskers for you to take last time, and your illness will gradually improve, if I can buy it back this time and cure your disease, I will never have to go again." ”

The woman smiled, her smile was as warm as a summer flower, she stroked Duan Qianqiu's hair and said softly: "Don't worry about me! It's just that you have a bad temper, you love to be strong, and you like to fight with people, I'm worried about you." ”

Duan Qianqiu didn't speak again, he just hugged her and gently stroked the woman's face, and the woman slowly fell asleep with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

Duan Qianqiu put her down and left quickly, because he was afraid that if he stayed for a few more moments, he would never want to leave again.

The woman's name is Ye Chulong.

Duan Qianqiu has known her for five years, but her life is still like a flower, and there are always more times when she is declining than when she is in full bloom. But Duan Qianqiu has no regrets, because she is one of the two most important people in his life!

A day later, Duan Qianqiu came to Guangling Mansion and stood in front of the Xingxiang Jade Workshop.

At this time, he had completely turned into a different person, his face was wearing a human skin mask made by Du Yunlong, the thousand-handed fox of the first disguised grandmaster of the rivers and lakes, and he was also wearing refined close-fitting soft armor, making him look like a businessman with a sturdy body who walked all over the world.

His current identity is Xiao Tietang, a wealthy grain merchant who walks Jianghuai.

Plus this time, he has worn this mask twice, once three years ago, he took back a small half of the black jade blood ginseng, this time he picked up this mask and this identity again, for the whole black jade blood ginseng.

Xingxiang Jade Workshop is the largest jade workshop in the entire Guangling Mansion and even the entire Dajing Dynasty, with a business network all over the world, specializing in collecting strange stones from all over the world and selling them at a high price. But all high-ranking officials and magnates are proud to have one or two auspicious jade.

People who do well in business generally have a particularly bright smile, and Xingxiang's Xiaoer is no exception, especially for people like Duan Qianqiu, who dress and act like uncles, they are even more smiling and can't see their eyes.

As soon as Duan Qianqiu stepped into the threshold, Xiao Er's eyes at the door lit up like a cat seeing a fish.

For Xiao Er's flattery, Duan Qianqiu responded with a match, and after casually throwing Xiao Er a silver ingot, he sat down in the spacious jade antique exhibition hall, and saw that there were not many people around, so he casually asked a few pieces of Qigu price,

The price quoted by Xiao Er is really in line with Xingxiang's consistent style, and it is ridiculously expensive. But Duan Qianqiu sneered disdainfully, and then asked to see the shopkeeper.

Xiao Er was embarrassed and said: "The owner is too busy, and he is entertaining Master Shi in it, uncle, what stone do you like, let the little one explain it to you." ”

Duan Qianqiu took out a piece of gold and stuffed it in the little second-hand, and when Xiao Er was dumbfounded and amazed at his magnificence, he only smiled and said: "This little brother, do me a favor, just tell the shopkeeper that Xiao Tietang wants to see him and buy something more expensive than the blood jade Buddha's hand." ”

"Is there anything more expensive than the Blood Jade Buddha's hand?" Xiao Erhu scratched his head suspiciously, bowed down and reported to the owner.

After half a cup of tea, Duan Qianqiu met the big proprietor of Xingxiang Jade Workshop, Qin Yulou, in the attic of the backyard in the Jade Workshop.

Qin Yulou is as his name, warm as jade, graceful, and his five long beards are smooth and black, which makes him graceful and noble.

After serving the tea, Qin Yulou stepped back and asked, "Mr. Xiao is generous and extraordinary, I don't know which piece of strange stone in my workshop is more expensive than the blood jade Buddha's hand?"

Duan Qianqiu said: "Black jade blood ginseng." ”

Qin Yulou's face changed, and he was about to speak.

Duan Qianqiu placed a crystal clear jade plaque on the table, and the card was engraved with four words: The sky is high and the sea is wide.

There is a small red clay stove on the sandalwood table in front of the two of them, and the olive core is used to cook tea, at this time the charcoal fire in the hearth is booming, Duan Qianqiu took the teapot, held the jade plate in his hand, and stretched it straight into the furnace, the jade plate was heated, and suddenly the whole body flashed green light, and the four characters of the sky and the sea became blood red.

Qin Yulou's expression was calm, Duan Qianqiu slowly removed his hand from the furnace, and said, "I want to buy black jade blood ginseng, I don't know if this price can be accepted by Shopkeeper Qin." ”

"This jade plate is owned by Hai Kuotian's favorite concubine, it is said that those who get this token can command nearly 100,000 people in the Changkong Gang, I don't know how Mr. Xiao got it?" Qin Yulou squinted and said.

"I took it off her breasts. ”

"Oh, doesn't Hai Kuotian object?"

"How could a dead man object!" Duan Qianqiu said with a smile.

"Three years ago, I heard that Hai Kuotian, the leader of the Changkong Gang, liked to eat people's brains the most, and even used the evil skill of the Three Corpses Soul Dementoring to run rampant in the world, but I didn't expect to die at the hands of Mr. Xiao. I heard that the Changkong Gang suffered a great injury in that battle and lost nearly a hundred masters, and Mr. Xiao's subordinates were too heavy!" Qin Yulou smiled with a smile.

"Shopkeeper Qin must have misremembered, I only killed seven people in total, Hai Kuotian plus his three heroes and three heroes and six hall masters. Duan Qianqiu said.

Qin Yulou patted his head and said: "Yes, I have this memory, but Mr. Xiao also knows the rules of the blood list, the better the thing, the higher the grade of the person to be killed." Black jade blood ginseng has rotten bones and muscles, and the miraculous effect of resurrecting the dead, this time with the whole plant hanging red, the assassination target is naturally much more difficult to deal with than the sea and the sky, I don't know if Mr. Xiao can afford it?"

Duan Qianqiu understood what Qin Yulou meant, but what he was worried about was not this, he only killed the great traitors, he didn't want to kill some innocent people, so he said lightly: "I want to see who the target is first!"

Qin Yulou pondered for a moment and said, "Well, I'm going to ask the employer about this, Mr. Xiao will come back in three days." ”

Duan Qianqiu didn't speak anymore and got up to leave.

Three years ago, in order to kill the sea, he almost died. Who will be the target in three days? Will he be able to save his life to get the black jade blood ginseng? Duan Qianqiu didn't want to think about it, because his hands hadn't been stained with human blood for three years, and he didn't know if his hands would shake when he killed someone.
