Chapter 137 The Secret Among the Four Holy Beasts

As soon as Wu Di finished speaking, the carving knife in the old man's right hand trembled slightly, and the white jade in his left hand shattered into two halves.

Seeing the shattered white jade in his hand, the old man's white eyebrows suddenly frowned, and after a few seconds, the old man put down the carving knife and flipped it with his left hand, and the two halves of the white jade fell on the counter with a clatter.

"Boy, do you know how long I have been carving this piece of broken white jade?"

The old man suddenly raised his head, and two cold lights suddenly flashed in his deep eyes.

Wu Di narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the old man in silence.

"Counting today, the old man has been carving for 88 days. In two days, exactly three months, this jade cicada is also finished carving. But it was broken into two halves."

The old man glanced at the shattered white jade again, and the cold light in his eyes became more and more intense.

Wu Di remained silent, but moved the Huofeng Sword in front of him, and raised his vigilance to the old man.

"After the jade cicada is carved, even if it is sold at an auction house, it is enough to auction off 50 taels of silver, but because of your words, it...is worthless."

"Oh! It's meaningless for you to say that. You are restless. What does the broken jade have to do with me?"

Wu Di was also very unhappy. From what the old man said, he probably wanted him to pay money.

"Boy, you are very arrogant. However, the old man did not intend to let you pay for the broken jade cicadas." The old man put the carving knife on the counter, stood up slowly, and walked out from behind the counter to Wu Disan. Mi Wai sneered and said, "But you have to give me an explanation, why do you say my jade ornaments are vulgar?"

"Want to hear? Okay! Then I'll tell you something." Wu Di smiled lightly, and then said: "Among the [-] kinds of jade ornaments, let alone bracelets and pendants, we only talk about flowers, birds, fish and insects, and the flowers are not fragrant. , Birds don’t sing, fish don’t swim happily, insects don’t crawl.”

"Ok?"

"Although there are several petals on the jade, I can't think of the fragrance that hits my face. Although the bird opens its mouth and sings, I can't think of the crisp sound. These things have only shape but no charm, so what if they are worth hundreds of thousands of silver taels? In my eyes, it is no different from the jade ornaments with two lines of silver on the street."

The old man blushed more and more as he listened, but the cold light in his eyes dissipated, and he burst out laughing suddenly.

"Boy! The eyes are poisonous enough. What you said is not unreasonable, but the old man has to defend himself. The things here are all carved before the old man was 30 years old."

The old man twirled his white beard with his hands, and spoke calmly, but Wu Di's eyes changed.

"Excuse me, how does Wu feel, are you bragging?"

When the old man's eyes were emitting a cold light just now, Wu Di realized that this old man was not simple.But precisely because of the old man's unfriendly gaze just now, what Wu Di said was not very pleasant.

But the old man didn't get angry, instead he laughed, waved his right hand towards the door, and he didn't know what trick he used, the two open doors closed with a bang.

In a flash!Wu Di clenched the hilt of the Fire Phoenix Sword instantly, staring vigilantly at the old man three meters away, ready to strike at any time.

"Boy, don't be nervous. If I want to kill you, do you think you can survive in front of me with the eight-star Martial King's cultivation?"

The old man's voice was not loud, but it made Wu Di's mind roar.

"Damn it! What's the origin of this old man? He can ignore the 'Concealing the Heavens Art' I learned. His cultivation base...was at the stage of the Great Martial King at the last time. Damn it, why did he get into the dragon's pool and tiger's lair again in a daze?"

Wu Di really felt a little regretful, why did hundreds of jade shops in the city seem to be possessed and walked into this ghostly place?
"Don't be dazed, don't you say that the things I carve are very vulgar? Today I will let you see that the jade ornaments carved by the old man are not vulgar. Of course, if you don't want to see, you can open the door and leave, and the old man will not stop you."

The old man had no intention of killing Wu Di, so he went straight up the stairs leading to the second floor with his hands behind his back.

Wu Di's brows stretched a little, and he stood there in silence for a moment, and went up to the second floor without any hesitation.

There was only one counter on the second floor, and there were four pieces of jade on the counter. Wu Di took a look at it, and immediately took a deep breath.

The objects carved on these four pieces of jade are not flowers, birds, fish and insects, nor exotic plants, but lifelike... four holy beasts.

The first piece on the left is green jade, with a five-clawed black dragon stepping on the blue clouds, and its five claws seem to have the power to tear the sky.The second piece of jade is white with black streaks. After fine carving, the tiger's eyes wide open as if glaring at all creatures, and the tiger's mouth is wide open, and the tiger's roar shakes the sky, revealing endless divine power.

The third piece of jade was fiery red, and a red bird soaring into the sky waved its wings, as if it was reborn from the ashes of fire and burned everything in the world with its wings.

The fourth piece of jade is earthy black, with armor on the back of the turtle's body, and the folds of the turtle's body are thick and thick, revealing endless years and immortality.

"How is it? These four holy beasts are carved by me in my middle age, and it took me 30 years."

The old man stared at Wu Di from the corner of his eyes with his hands behind his back, with a very smug expression.

Wu Di took a deep breath again, but he didn't speak. Instead, he stepped forward to the counter and stared intently at the four holy beasts.

This scene made the old man gradually frown.

"No... no way? He... he can't find it. But he... what if he finds out? No, no, no! He is only fifteen or sixteen years old, how can he see through the secrets contained in the four holy beasts? "

The complacency on the old man's face gradually faded, and when Wu Di squatted down and looked at the four holy beasts carefully, the old man became even more flustered.

"Did you find out? Damn it! What is this guy's qualifications? No, no! What's wrong with me? These four holy beasts can hide from those old guys, how could he find out at such a young age? He frightened himself.... "

The old man secretly persuaded himself in his heart, but at this moment, Wu Di suddenly stood up, turned around and bowed with fists in his hands.

This prostration made the expression on the old man's face stiff, he heheed twice with a half-smile, his lips moved as if he wanted to ask something, but in the end he shook his head with a wry smile.

"What are you doing?"

"Seniors have exquisite skills, and their carving skills are at their peak, but this junior was reckless before."

"Oh? Why... did you say that?"

"The four holy beasts have form and charm. But these are not important. The important thing is that each holy beast contains a set of earth-level martial arts."

"this……."

The old man's intestines were full of remorse, he just wanted to be serious with Wu Di, but he never expected that Wu Di would be aware of his martial arts engraved in the Four Sacred Beasts in such a short period of time.

"Senior! I don't know the real names of the four sets of martial arts, but I guess that these four sets of martial arts are related to the dragon claw, tiger roar, bird flame, and tortoise shell."

"that……."

The old man chattered for a long time, really wanted to refute Wu Di, but what Wu Di said was right.

"Monster! This talent for comprehension is one of the few in the entire Middle-earth continent. But, boy, are you too courageous? Don't be afraid that I will kill you, lest this secret leak out and seal your heart forever. Mouth?"

　Thank you'penpen' for your reward.
