Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 337
"Okay, then I will let you lose heartily!"

After finishing speaking, Yu Mingshuang walked to the table and poured herself a cup of tea.

There is a row of chime bells on the left side of the lobby. This row of chime bells is the private property of shopkeeper Su and has been polished very brightly.

Yu Mingshuang threw out the tea in the teacup, the tea was wrapped in internal force and condensed into a ball, and a chime bell was rung.

When ordinary people have seen such a strange phenomenon, they are suddenly horrified.

"How is it? Do you admit defeat?" Yu Mingshuang asked a little proudly.

Ye Qiongdan smiled without saying a word, and poured a cup of tea.

Yu Mingshuang looked at her quietly, disapproving in her heart, thinking that even if she imitated her, she was just humiliating herself.

The onlookers inside and outside Baoyuxuan saw that Yu Mingshuang was older than Ye Qiongdan and was taught by a famous family, so they all thought that Ye Qiongdan had no chance of winning.

Ye Qiongdan is a country girl, even if she is self-taught, her inner strength must be very superficial.

Ye Qiongdan picked up the teacup, and spilled the tea in the cup under the disapproving eyes of everyone.

The tea was not condensed into a ball, but turned into drops, which shot towards the chime like an arrow.

"Boom, boom, boom..." A bell rang, and all the chimes shook slightly.

Yu Mingshuang threw out the tea in the cup, and only rang one chime, while Ye Qiongdan threw out the tea in the cup, but rang all the chimes on the entire chime shelf.

The internal force has been controlled to such an extent that it can be said that it is like a finger. Comparing the two, it is clear what is superior.

"Okay!" Everyone shouted after being stunned for a moment, and immediately applauded.

The applause lasted for so long that Yu Mingshuang's hands hidden under her sleeves were slightly clenched.

After the applause ended, Yu Mingshuang snorted coldly and said, "It's just a show! Miss Ye, let's win two out of three rounds!"

"Okay." Ye Qiongdan raised her hand, signaling Yu Mingxia to invite her first.

Yu Mingxia plucked a leaf from the vase by the window, and under everyone's puzzled eyes, she patted it on the table. Clear lines of the leaf appeared immediately on the table, but the leaf was broken into fine powder.

A gust of wind blew outside the window, blowing this layer of powder to the ground.

Everyone looked at the clear leaf patterns on the table in shock, but couldn't say a word.

Can control the internal force to such an extent, in this competition, Yu Mingshuang is slightly better, right?

Yu Mingshuang looked at Ye Qiongdan, waiting for her to admit defeat.

Unexpectedly, Ye Qiongdan was not afraid at all, she stretched out her hand and took out a rose in the vase, which had more than a dozen leaves and four or five flowers on it.

"Shopkeeper Su, please prepare a flat wooden board for me. Your table is made of jujube branch wood, which is very precious. How dare I destroy it?"

When Yu Mingshuang patted the leaves on the table earlier, she didn't ask him, the shopkeeper of Baoyuxuan, for his opinion, and his attitude was very arrogant.

I don't know if it should be said that she didn't take him seriously, or that she lacked the basic courtesy in dealing with others.

With such a comparison, shopkeeper Su's impression of Ye Qiongdan is naturally better.

"You're welcome," Shopkeeper Su said with a smile, "You can just compete with her at this table."

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Su, for your fulfillment." Ye Qiongdan slapped the rose branch in his hand to the table.

The rose is intact.

Everyone froze for a moment, then looked at each other.

Ye Qiongdan lost?
This loss is too complete, there is not even a trace of room for respect!
Yu Mingshuang sneered, with a smug look in her eyes: "Did you use up your internal energy last time? I don't think so."

She thought she was very powerful before, but it turned out that she was just pretending to be calm. She must have used all her strength in the first competition and tried to use psychological tactics to force her to admit defeat. Fortunately, she was not fooled by her.

Everyone sighed in unison.

"You'll know it when you look at it." Ye Qiongdan reached out and picked up the undamaged rose. The dozen or so green leaves were still verdant, and the four or five pale pink flowers were still blooming gracefully.

After she put the rose back into the vase, someone gasped and pointed to the table but couldn't say a word.

Everyone followed her fingers and looked over, their eyes widened in horror.

The rose was inserted back into the vase intact, but there were more than a dozen leaves with clear lines and lifelike flowers printed on the table. It was painstakingly carved on the tabletop.

"How did you do it?" Yu Mingshuang asked in disbelief.

Ye Qiongdan smiled and said nothing.

"Trick! This must be a trick! You are younger than me, how can you have deeper internal power than me? You must be playing some kind of conspiracy!"

Yu Mingshuang finally couldn't maintain the hypocritical mask on her face anymore, she raised her hand and slapped Ye Qiongdan hard.

Ye Qiongdan took her palm, gathered the energy in her body into the palm, and slapped it back.

"Pfft!" Yu Mingshuang held her chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.

At this point, she had suffered internal injuries.

This internal injury was not serious, but it made her powerless to fight back.

"You said two wins in three rounds, now I can count as three wins in three rounds. From now on, you and your sister don't pester me anymore, the grievances between you and me end here!" Ye Qiongdan said loudly .

A look of unwillingness flashed across Yu Mingshuang's eyes, but she could only nod helplessly.

She is willing to gamble and admit defeat. Now she has lost in front of the public. If she doesn't abide by the bet, how can she walk in the rivers and lakes in the future?

Besides, the two sisters lost one after another at the hands of a country girl. This matter must be dealt with coldly. If they continue to hold on, it will only embarrass them even more, and make the two sisters even more invisible from now on!

"Okay, I lost, it's because our sisters are not as good as others, let's leave!" Yu Mingshuang walked out of Bao Yuxuan after saying that.

Yu Mingxia upstairs has been paying attention to the movement downstairs. She has practiced internal strength for many years, and her hearing is amazing. Seeing that her sister lost, she had no choice but to cover her head with her sleeves, and ran away with her sister in despair. go out.

"Okay!" The people downstairs cheered again, with thunderous applause.

Ye Qiongdan smiled slightly and nodded with them.

Shopkeeper Su and Manager Xiao Zhou both breathed a sigh of relief. After looking at each other, they both raised their hands to wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads.

Holding Ye Qiongdan's arm, Xu Mingzhu said with admiration: "Qiongdan, you are really amazing! Did you see the way those two sisters left when they left? They are as miserable as dogs!"

"Finally, a troublesome matter has been resolved," Ye Qiongdan breathed a sigh of relief, "I hope that this kind of troublesome matter will not be encountered again in the future!"

"Son and daughters of the rivers and lakes, isn't it good to be kind and friendly?" Xu Mingzhu said enviously.

"If you are lonely and have no worries, then it is very good for the children of the rivers and lakes to enjoy kindness and enmity. Life is only a few dozen years, so why not live a chic and reckless life? But after all, you and I are people who have the cares of the world. Living in peace is the greatest happiness.”

Xu Mingzhu curled her lips disapprovingly, but she didn't refute. There was fire in her blood, and she always yearned for that unstable life.

"Come on, let's take a look at the rough stone." Ye Qiongdan said.

But before watching the lively crowd inside and outside the lobby of Baoyuxuan, they couldn't bear it any longer. They gathered around the table to observe the vivid rose pattern on the table.

Someone was a little obsessed with watching it, and shouted: "Shopkeeper, can this table be sold for 50 taels of silver?"

"I'll pay 55 taels of silver!"

"I'll pay 60 taels of silver!"

"I'll pay 100 taels of silver!"

……

Shopkeeper Su smiled, but kept silent.

Finally, someone yelled, "I'll give you 1000 taels of silver!"

As soon as this remark came out, no one bid again.

"1000 taels of silver, I'll buy a legend back, will you sell it?" the man asked eagerly.

"Not for sale." Shopkeeper Su shook his head.

"Don't you even sell 1000 taels of silver? How much was your jujube branch wooden table worth when you bought it?" The man frowned.

"It was just a table when I bought it, but it is now a part of the legend, so I can't sell it, I want more people to take a look at this table with the legendary mark." Shopkeeper Su turned Turning around, Eyeball said slyly.

This table is definitely not for sale now, and after people who want to admire the legend flock to them and make their Baoyuxuan's booming business go to a higher level, he will entrust this table to the dental shop for auction at the peak of the popularity.

In this way, the price that can be auctioned is more than 1000 taels of silver?
As the saying goes, there is no profit without business.

"You really don't want to sell?" the man was anxious.

"Of course not for sale."

"What if I offer a high price of 1500 taels of silver?"

"Still not for sale." Shopkeeper Su stroked his beard and shook his head.

The man sighed.

Then there were sighs inside and outside the Baoyuxuan lobby.

The matter of Ye Qiongdan and Yu Mingshuang's competition of internal strength in Baoyuxuan naturally spread like wildfire, and soon spread to the Jianghu.

She defeated the two sisters of the Yu family one after another, which made people in the Jianghu very curious about her.

After people in Guazhou always used her as a topic of conversation after dinner, she also gained a certain reputation in the Jianghu, and became the object of everyone's talk about it for a while.

However, these are all later stories.

After the matter came to an end, Ye Qiongdan walked around the lobby and found that Baoyuxuan had a lot of customers, but there were many people watching and few people buying.

After all, the risk of betting on stones is too great.

Even so, it took less than one cup of tea to sell two stones.

The person who bought the rough stone will register it at Baoyuxuan, and then entrust the master of Baoyuxuan to cut the stone skin, and wait a few days to see if there is any green in the stone.

Bao Yuxuan's master has a very good reputation, and he will never do anything to exchange rough stones. If this kind of thing is done once, the signboard will be smashed.

Furthermore, people who buy stones will also remember which stone they bought before, and they can still recognize their own stone when only one layer of stone skin has been cut off. big.

In this day and age, cutting rough stones is not an easy task.

Generally speaking, there are two ways to cut off the stone skin. One is the wire cutting method, which is to use horsetail and horsehair rope to pull repeatedly on the original stone. The stone skin was cut off.

The other method is called mound cutting, which is to put the original stone on a disc called "dump" and rotate it back and forth for friction. During the friction process, water and sand with relatively high hardness are continuously added. As the mound continues to rotate, the stone The skin will gradually be worn off.

After walking around in the lobby, Ye Qiongdan actually sensed some vitality from these rough stones.

Some stones have very strong heaven and earth vitality, while others have only a faint trace of heaven and earth vitality.

She doesn't know how to look at stones, and at this time, she is more interested in watching the excitement in Baoyuxuan than in betting on stones.

She hoped that today she would meet someone who offered high-grade jadeite, and she would pay a high price to buy the jadeite wool.
