Invincible martial arts supreme

Chapter 136 Expensive Jade Jewelry

Wu Di's footsteps stopped suddenly, and he turned his head to look at Shangguan Xue who was blinking wide-eyed, Wu Di's eyeballs were straightened.

"How is it? Let's leave Qinglan Country."

Seeing that Wu Di was silent, Shangguanxue asked again.

"Cough! That..." Wu Di raised his hand and rubbed his aching head, and after a long silence, he spoke again: "Xue'er! We... can we not make trouble?"

"I didn't quarrel with you. If my father handed you over to Sanzong, do you still want to live? I don't want you to die, I just want to escape from Qinglan Country. Where can Sanzong find us?"

Wu Di frowned and fell silent.

What Shangguan Xue said was not unreasonable. Once Shangguan Yuyi handed himself over to Sanzong, Wu Di knew very well that even if he had ten lives, it would not be enough for Sanzong to kill him.

However, Wu Di was silent for a moment, sighed and shook his head.

"Shangguanxue! It's a blessing, not a disaster. A disaster can't be avoided. If I escape, Tianyuanzong and Kunyuan City will definitely be implicated. Such things... I can't do it."

"Hmph! I think you just can't bear to part with Li Mengyao, you love him to death, and you're too lazy to talk to you."

Shangguan Xue pouted, grabbed the reins and got on the horse, stepped on the stirrups with both feet and knocked on the horse's belly, the white horse neighed, and galloped away towards Fengqi City.

Looking at Shangguan Xue who was getting angry and going away, Wu Di smiled wryly and shook his head: "This girl, go crazy... She really doesn't care about anything."

After muttering with a wry smile, Wu Difei got on his horse and chased after him.

Fengqi City is less than two thousand miles away from Kunyuan City.

In Wu Di's impression, this city is a place rich in beautiful jade.

Wu Di had already thought about it in Fengling Town before, and bought a jade ornament for Li Mengyao when he arrived in Fengqi City, and gave it to her as a meeting gift.After more than half a year, I can't go back empty-handed.

While the night was not too hot, Wu Di and Shangguanxue traveled all night without stopping, and arrived at Fengqi City when it was nearly Chen.

Upon entering Fengqi City, Wu Di was also stunned by the number of jade shops on both sides of the street.

It is no exaggeration to say that jade stores are next to each other, and it is not easy to find restaurants.The two walked for several streets, and it took half an hour before they found an inn in the east of the city.

On the first floor of the inn, the two had a simple meal.At the dinner table, Wu Di muttered a few words, but Shangguan Xue ignored him, and the meal was quite awkward.

Back in their respective rooms, Wu Di rested for two hours. After the scorching noon, Wu Di left the inn with the fire phoenix sword.

Maybe Shangguan Xue was really angry, but in the past, if Wu Di wanted to come out, she would definitely follow him every step of the way.

But today, Shangguan Xue didn't come out of the room, perhaps because she was sullen in the room.

Wu Di was quite helpless about this.But Shangguan Xue didn't follow, Wu Di was happier.

You know, most of Fengqi City is a jade store, so this girl can still go shopping?

Holding a sword in his back and dressed in white snow, Wu Di walked unhurriedly on the bustling street, looking left and right at the jade shops on both sides.

"Yu... Zhen... Pavilion!"

Wu Di stopped in his tracks, looked up at the three-story building, turned his gaze back to look inside, and walked in with his hands behind his back unhurriedly.

Unlike other shops, the business of this one is really bleak.

There are only three guests on the huge first floor.At the moment, he was standing in front of the counter on the west side, pointing at the jade ornaments in the counter, frowning from time to time and whispering a few words in a low voice.

Opposite the main entrance, an old man sat behind the counter.

The old man had white hair and beard, and he didn't greet the three guests, and he didn't even look at them. He just sat there with his head lowered, holding a small carving knife in his right hand, and engrossed in carving a piece of white jade in his left hand.

I have to marvel at the level of concentration of this old man, which is far beyond imagination.It feels like the sky is falling, and it won't disturb him to carve that piece of white jade.

However, the moment Wu Di walked in, the carving knife in the old man's right hand visibly stopped, and he slowly raised his head to glance at Wu Di in white, his piercing and deep eyes shrank slightly, and a sound came from his mouth Huh lightly.

When the old man looked at Wu Di, Wu Di also looked at the old man.For some unknown reason, Wu Di frowned slightly, looked at the old man with strange eyes, and there was a slight surprise from his mouth.

Just when both parties were stunned, a man and two women who were choosing jade ornaments turned around, and without looking at Wu Di who walked in, the man said directly to the old man: "Shopkeeper, those pair of ice jade jade bracelets, you Can you sell it cheaper? It's...it's too expensive."

The old man glanced at a man and two women out of the corners of his eyes, then retracted his eyes and said indifferently: "One hundred thousand, one pair 18 thousand."

"Old man! The price you set is too outrageous, right? Of course, the color, texture and luster of the pair of bracelets can be regarded as high-quality products. But in the largest 'Xiangyu Auction House' in the city, such a pair of jadeite bracelets That's one hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver."

"Hmph! Ignorance. If you want to buy it, you can buy it. If you don't want to buy it, you can get out. The jade articles from this old man can be sold or not. Today I will order a pair of 18 yuan, tomorrow it may be 28 yuan, and the day after tomorrow it will be 38 yuan."

"How can you do business like this? Do it! I can't afford your bracelet, can I? Anyway, tomorrow is the tenth anniversary of the 'Xiangyu Auction House', and the quality of the jade pendants auctioned is also high-quality, so I will sell them there." go."

The man became angry, grabbed the two women beside him and walked out.

Seeing Wu Di at the door, the man gave the old man behind the counter a hard look, and said to Wu Di: "Little brother, don't buy jade here, this is a black shop, and the old man's spirit is not normal."

Wu Di was slightly taken aback, and smiled awkwardly.

But seeing that Wu Di didn't intend to leave, the man's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed his words in the end, and pulled the second daughter out of the shop.

After a man and two women left, the old man held the carving knife, and without looking at Wu Di again, he continued to carve the piece of white jade in his hand with his head down.

Wu Di raised his eyebrows, but he didn't care about the old man's neglect. He walked to the counter on the right with a sword in his back, and looked at the pieces of jade on the counter.

Seeing this, Wu Di suddenly took a deep breath.

There are various kinds of jade on the counter, but no matter whether it is a pendant or a bracelet, none of them is less than 10 taels of silver.

"No wonder no one patronizes the store. This price is really not acceptable to ordinary people."

Wu Di walked around the store, looked at the many jade ornaments on the counter, sighed, turned around and was about to leave the store.

But at this moment, the old man who had been carving white jade opened his mouth.

"Little brother! Turn around, why do you want to leave without buying?"

"Ok?"

Wu Di's footsteps paused slightly, why?Do you have to buy it after turning around?

"Cough! I'm sorry, although you have a lot of jade ornaments in your shop, but... there is really nothing I like. How should I put it, it's a bit... vulgar! It doesn't match the temperament of the person I gave it to."
