852 people are not enough
nced back at the mountain crevice and sighed, "Humans always want to grasp power they can't possibly obtain. No matter how careful they are, once an accident happens, they are the first to be struck b..."Is there something here" I asked Mu Wanchen with my eyes.
He frowned, peering through the crack at the array of knives in the room.
The Headmaster twirled the金剛菩提 beads in one hand, tapped the table with the other, and said to my Seventh Senior Brother, "When I looked at it just now, it seemed like something was hidden inside one of the beads. However, it's invisible to the naked eye and would require scanning or even cutting to see it. Since your junior apprentice sister values this rosary so much, I didn't want to say anything in front of everyone."
Seventh Brother gave him a withering look: "I just wanted you to see if it was real or fake, and get an idea of its value. Whether there's anything inside doesn't matter, as long as it's genuine. I'm worried my little sister will be cheated!"
"A man's gift" Daozong laughed heartily.
"Nonsense! I'm worried that some kid might randomly grab a Western product and run off with my little apprentice. The value isn't the main concern, it's her character!"
Daozong laughed as he stroked his rosary beads. These people who dealt in jewelry and antiques seemed to love "turning over" things, a shrewd glint in his eyes: "This string of amber can't be valued solely on its own merit, you have to look at what it hides... That's the story of this treasure, and that story is the true value... Hey, who gave your little sister this thing To give out something so valuable, what's their motive"
The Seventh Senior Brother let out a helpless hum: "Who knows what they want to do It's just expressing their feelings, isn't it"
Daozong smirked, that shrewd and calculating look made me want to punch him: "To chase after your younger sister, you really need to invest a lot… eh, do you think I have a chance"
His words were obviously a joke, he couldn't hold back his smile even as he said them.
"You" The seventh senior brother scoffed, "Your family's gold and silver mountains wouldn't interest my little junior sister. I think you should give up on the idea of using a bracelet to win her over."
He's eyeing my bracelet, isn't he
Knowing it was the real deal, I felt even more at ease. I pulled Mu Wanchen back to the adjacent private room. The snacks had already arrived.
"Don't be angry, my senior brother just worries that I might get cheated, so he asked his friends to take a look." I explained.
Mu Wanchen nodded. He wasn't that petty, but his expression was grave as he said, "I also know there's something here, but exactly what it is, after so many years, no one knows anymore. But we absolutely can't destroy it. This is a treasure passed down for countless years." He looked at me.
I covered my wrist and quickly nodded, "I'm not curious at all, it definitely won't be destroyed, you can rest assured."
That day, the hand that reached out from the black hole wanted to grab you. I don't know if it was for the female silkworm, or for this bracelet, or both…” He frowned in thought.
"I'm not running around recklessly, after all, there is a boundary between the yin and yang realms. The other party can't act wantonly either. I just have to be more careful... Or would you lend me Xuan Yue or Ling Zhen" I said with a smile.
Mu Wanchen glanced at me: "What identity do you use to command them"
"That really hurts."
I'm avoiding the obligations that come with being called "Little Princess," like marriage and leaving home. I haven't even thought about those things.
It's just that some selfish people want to cling to Mu Wanchen - there must be the female Gu manipulating things behind the scenes, she wants to stick to her own husband.
I let Mu Wanchen go back first and wait for me. I still have to obediently come back with Seventh Senior Brother.
That Mr. Dao smiled and handed me a business card: "Little sister Yin Lu, I was just teasing you earlier. If you have any questions about jewelry or antiques in the future, feel free to contact me. Friendly consultation, no charge."
Cut the crap, who cares about your friendship
I was about to scoff, but I forced a stiff smile out of respect for the Seventh Senior Brother.
"This guy is annoying, I don't like him. He feels sly and cunning." I said to Seventh Senior Brother, sitting in the back seat.
The seventh senior brother laughed and said, “Senior brother, when doing business, you can't offend anyone, let alone friends. After all, it’s only when things get tough that we realize how few friends we have… This General Dao is just a bit slippery, but he's not a bad person.”
"Hmph... He couldn't possibly be eyeing my bracelet, could he"
"Everyone likes a baby, don't they You think he gave you his card just for show He wants to be the first one to contact you when you decide to sell." The Seventh Senior Brother chuckled. "But he also knows that you have no such intention."
How could I possibly sell it Mu Wanchen entrusted me with this seriously. Even if I didn't want it someday, I would return it to him properly.
The car pulled up to the house, so I got out and walked a few steps back. Brother Qi went to park the car.
There was a gray-haired man sitting at my front door. I cautiously asked, "Who are you What are you doing here"
The man slowly raised his head, his eyes swollen and red, looking utterly haggard. The moment he saw me, he seemed to see a savior and rushed towards me.
I was frightened and quickly jumped onto the stairs, shouting, “Hey, who are you! What are you doing!”
"Second Miss, it's me, me…" He fell and scrambled to his feet, slumping down onto the ground and dejectedly pointed at his face.
Well, it seems a bit familiar...
"Do I know you" I asked, puzzled.
Everyone at home should be eating right now, shouldn't they No one's come out to take a look. This old man is just sitting here unnoticed at the front door like this. What does he want To block the entrance
"It's me, Miss Second. We met a while back, remember" He tilted his head, hoping I would recall him.
I stared wide-eyed—it was my senior brother's fat sheep! Or, rather, their big client!
Last time I saw him at the pharmacy, we chatted for a bit. I also saw his luxury car and bodyguard, as well as his beautiful wife.
"What are you doing It's only been a short while, how come you look ten years older!" I couldn't help but ask.
He sat on the ground, letting out a long sigh and shaking his head wordlessly.
Bankrupt Doesn't look like it, his clothes are still quite high-end. He just looks particularly despondent.
"Is the Divine Doctor here" he asked.
"He's not here. My senior brother went out on a trip and will be back in a while. If you're feeling unwell, you can ask another senior brother to see you." I suggested.
He shook his head without speaking. Seeing his expression, I couldn't help but ask, "Wasn't your little vixen wife cheating on you"
He suddenly looked up at me, his eyes filled with anguish. Oh my... did I say something right
"Before, the Divine Physician Jun said he wanted to come to my house and have a look, suspecting that there were some unclean things or unhealthy arrangements or objects in my home... I was always embarrassed, so I didn't agree. But recently, something happened, and I couldn't help but install a camera at home, and unexpectedly—"
His lips and hands were trembling slightly, he seemed very nervous.
"What did you not expect" I asked.
"My wife, she has been acting... strangely."
> we're here to rescue people. All the female soldiers back at camp are staying behind. How do we search them!"The major stared at me with confusion.I immediately cooperated and said, "My limbs are fin...
