A knife in love

Chapter 2984

After hearing what the old man in green robe had said, the old man in gray raised his eyebrows, glanced at the young man hiding behind the old man in green robe, and said: "So, this young master doesn't know the origin of this treasure, but it's not enough. Strange."

When he said this, he paused for a while, his eyes fell on the old man in green robe, and he continued: "The guest officer is very knowledgeable, you should know the origin of this treasure?"

The green-robed old man looked embarrassed, and he didn't speak for a while. After a while, he only laughed dryly twice, and said in his mouth: "This treasure is a family heirloom of the Patriarch. I am just a retainer under the Patriarch. If you can’t even see the baby’s shadow, how can you know its origin?”

The gray-clothed old man nodded, and said in his mouth: "So that's the case, the old man is reckless. The origin of this treasure is extremely unusual, but it is a priceless treasure that is first-class in the world. Even a wealthy family may not be blessed to enjoy it." This kind of rare thing. Looking at the world, perhaps only the inner courtyard of the palace can collect this thing. Even if ordinary people get this treasure, it will not only be of no benefit, but will bring disaster. Since the birth of this treasure, I don’t know how many people are unlucky The old man lost his life because of it. The old man originally thought that this thing had returned to the palace, or was buried deep in the ground with the remains of a certain emperor, but he didn't expect it to see the light of day again. Ions scattered!"

Hearing the old man in gray speak so solemnly, Li Qiufeng felt startled and suspicious, and became more and more curious about this jade scale.Murong Danyan always disdained the gray-clothed old man, seeing him like this, he thought to himself, this old guy is playing tricks, I don't know what the hell he's up to.This person is pretending to be a respectable and dignified official, playing tricks here, most likely trying to deceive Brother Li and me, and secretly laying his hands down.It's just that the young man and the old man in green robe don't know why they are friends or enemies with this old guy.Hmph, no matter what plans these guys have, once they want to kill Brother Li and me, I will act first, and I must not wait for death.As the saying goes, when you shoot a man, you shoot the horse first, and when you capture a thief, you capture the king first.As long as I stab this old guy to death with a single sword, or take him hostage, those two strange men under him will not be able to do anything to us.

Thinking of this, Murong Danyan fixed his eyes on the back of the gray-clothed old man, calculating in his mind how to make a move to kill the gray-clothed old man with a single sword or capture him alive.Fortunately, the gray-clothed old man didn't notice that Murong Danyan was staring at him, otherwise, seeing Murong Danyan's eyes were vicious, he might immediately realize that she was going to harm him.

The green-robed old man looked impatient, holding the folding fan in his right hand, and kept tapping on the palm of his left hand. Although the sound was not loud, it was crackling non-stop, and it was extremely unpleasant to hear.Seeing this situation, Murong Danyan became more and more unhappy, lowered his voice and whispered to Li Qiufeng: "Brother Li, it's already winter, everyone has changed into thick clothes, but this old guy is pretending to be holding a fan, It's really abominable. Just now when I saw him save that kid, I thought he was a chivalrous man, but judging by his appearance, he only wants to exchange jade scales for silver. Such a greedy person is definitely not a chivalrous hero. "

Li Qiufeng nodded, lowered his voice and said: "Young lady, you got what she said. This person claims to be the boy's servant, but the Qingyan gang intercepted the boy on the long street, beat and humiliated the boy, and dealt extremely heavy blows. This If the three guys were really under the boy's command, how could they sit idly by? Moreover, after the three broke into Hetai Dang, the boy not only didn't have the slightest intention of getting close to the three, but was rather terrified, I'm afraid there was something wrong with them. "

After hearing Li Qiufeng's words, Murong Danyan's heart shuddered, and he couldn't help turning his head to look at the young man.I saw the young man hiding behind the old man in green robe, the short fat man and the man in yellow shirt, his face was ashen, and there was some hatred in his eyes, but more panic.Seeing this situation, Murong Danyan thought to himself, this kid should be happy to escape from death, why is he so depressed?Could it be that these three people are not his subordinates at all, but have other plans? "

When Murong Danyan was thinking about it, he only heard the old man in green robe say with a smile on his face: "Da Chaofeng, it's getting late now, my son still has something to do, and he is in a hurry to exchange this treasure into silver. How much money Guidang can pay, please ask Dachaobong to give us a real number. If the money is low, we have to feel sorry for Dachaobong, and we have to take our treasures to other pawnshops on the island to try our luck."

The old man in gray shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "Guest officer, don't be impatient, just listen to the old man. This treasure is a priceless treasure. The old man really wants to keep it in Hetai, so before quoting the price, It is necessary to let all the guest officials know the origin of this treasure, lest you think that we and Taidang are deliberately lowering the price and ruining Hetaidang's reputation."

The gray-clothed old man stopped for a while, glanced at the green-robed old man, and then continued: "What's more, even if the guest officer is not satisfied with the price we and Tai pawn, you have to go to other pawnshops on the island to pawn the thing , if you know the origin of this treasure, you won't be cheated by the pawn shop when negotiating the price. Guest officer, do you think what the old man said is reasonable?"

The green-robed old man looked impatient, glanced at the gray-clothed old man, sneered, and said: "Thank you Da Chaofeng for your kindness. Since Da Chaofeng kindly taught me, we have no choice but to appreciate it. If Dachaobong has something to say, please say it. . . . and we are all ears."

The short fat man and the man in the yellow shirt stood next to the man in the green robe, looking impatient. They glared at the old man in gray, quite unconvinced.The old man in gray knew that the three of them were dissatisfied with him, but he didn't care. He stared at the jade scale on the counter and said, "About 20 years ago, I went to the Central Plains to do business, and that night I finally arrived at the west gate of Suzhou City. Unexpectedly, the time was delayed, the city gate was closed, and the old man was separated from the city. In desperation, the old man had no choice but to find a shelter outside the city, deal with it overnight, and enter the city early the next morning.

"It's just that the old man has never been to Suzhou, so I don't know where to find a house. It was the dead of night, and there was no one in sight. I couldn't ask the way, so I had to walk around in the dark. I accidentally saw a little light in front of me. , the old man was overjoyed. He thought he had encountered a village, so he looked for the light and walked over. Unexpectedly, the village was not found, but he saw a mountain gate of a temple. There were stone pillars standing on the left and right sides of the mountain gate, each stone pillar was one foot high Five or six feet long, five lotus lanterns hang from the top. Candles have been lit in the lanterns, illuminating the front of the mountain gate as if it were daytime. By the light of the lanterns, we can see that the temple gate is huge in scale, with an arch in the middle. The gate is more than three feet high and one foot two or three feet wide. There are also small arched doors on the left and right sides of the gate. Although the old man has been to many monasteries, this is the first time he saw such a huge monastery with a mountain gate, and he was stunned and completely forgot where he was."
