Chapter 128 Ambergris
Mrs. Xiao chuckled strangely and suddenly narrowed her eyes. Lu Xin instantly felt that a powerful thought was covering her whole body, as if she wanted to see herself through. When Zhao Li, who was standing beside him, he naturally thought of Li Chunfeng immediately when he heard Mrs. Xiao's words, and frowned immediately, his eyes became a little complicated.
Although Lu Xin was not very scheming, he could still guess some of the two of them. He immediately smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Madam, don't test me again. Today, I am sure to win this ambergris. Please open the door."
Without any unnecessary nonsense, Lu Xin directly expressed his firm attitude of buying ambergris. Seeing this, Mrs. Xiao looked at Zhao Li, pondered for a moment, but said nothing, turned around and opened the door of the secret room.
Boom!
The stone gate was slowly pushed open by the mechanism, revealing a space of about a hundred steps. There was no furniture arrangement inside, and the rock walls on all sides were one meter high, with a large number of caves chisels on it. Some were the size of fists and some millstones were all made into dark grids. Moreover, each dark grid was sealed by a talisman. Under the faint candlelight, thousands of yellow talismans flashed with light golden light at the same time, an indescribable dream.
"This is Mrs. Xiao's treasure house. It is said that there are more treasures in these secret spaces than the treasury of the imperial court. I have entered Xiao's mansion many times, which is the first time I have come here. Lu Xin, I'll thank you for your blessing."
Zhao Li looked around and looked at the dense dark grids on the rock wall, his eyes shining. Lu Xin didn't care about any treasure, he just wanted to see the legendary ambergris. At the same time, Mrs. Xiao walked to the east of the secret room, soared into the air, and lifted off the talisman above the secret room. The next second, the entire secret room shook twice. The secret room slowly moved out from the depths of the rock wall, sprinkled with dust. After Mrs. Xiao fell back to the ground, she stretched out her hand and the things in the secret room flew to his palm in an instant.
Looking closely, it was a dark green box with a transparent body of glass. It was about ten inches long and one finger wide. I don’t know what material it was made of. As soon as the box appeared, the temperature of the entire secret room immediately dropped. It was summer, but it seemed that it was suddenly the cold winter month.
"Modao Ice Crystal! It is said that there is an innate ice vein hidden in Guixu, hidden at the bottom of the sea thousands of feet away. Occasionally, dark green ice crystals float up, which will not melt for thousands of years, and will not melt when exposed to fire. This box alone is already a huge move."
The moment he saw the box, Zhao Li widened his eyes and his tone was extremely shocking. Lu Xin had never heard of "Mo Dao Ice Crystal", but he still knew the word Guixu.
"Liezi? Tang Wen" records: "There are hundreds of millions of miles east of the Bohai Sea, and there are big valleys. In fact, there is only a bottomless valley, and the bottom is called Guixu." These two words often appear in the Shanhai Sutra, and are the legendary residences of gods.
"Hmph, ambergris is the spiritual root of the wood of heaven and earth, and only can it be used as medicine. There are very few things that can be preserved in this world. If it weren't for this piece of ink ice crystal, you wouldn't have seen it. Now, is it more than 80,000 taels?"
Mrs. Xiao spoke coldly, not hiding the pride in her tone. When Zhao Li heard this, he swallowed a few saliva but stopped talking. Then, Mrs. Xiao slowly opened the box, and a fragrance suddenly filled the entire secret room.
Looking into the box, a dragon-shaped plant was rising and falling regularly, with a faint green light all over the body, as if it was breathing and breathing. In Lu Xin's view, it was a "ginseng" that was about to turn into a dragon. Its hair and beard were clearly distinguished, and even the heart was beating.
"This is not a herb, it's just a living thing!"
At this moment, Lu Xin truly realized what Li Chunfeng asked him to buy.
"Mrs. Xiao, this ambergris..."
Lu Xin didn't care about Zhao Li's reaction, and was about to take out the jade bottle in his arms and speak. But at this moment, a sound suddenly sounded outside the secret room. It was so powerful that it was like rolling thunder.
"Mrs. Xiao, I want this ambergris. I will add 20% of the money they pay."
The sudden sound made Lu Xin's face instantly sink. At this critical moment, someone would come to grab ambergris. Moreover, his tone was so loud that he not only did not ask about the price, but he added 20% as soon as he opened his mouth. Lu Xin and Zhao Li turned around almost at the same time, and saw the person wearing a big red robe, with patterns of tigers and unicorns embroidered on his chest. He tied his crown and long hair, and his expression was majestic. Zhao Li only took a look and then calmed down his voice.
"General Manager of the Demon Suppression Academy, Yuchi Baolin!"
"What, is this person Yuchi Baolin?"
Lu Xin was stunned when he heard this, his expression became even more ugly. He had met Yuchi Baolin in Xuanzhou. At that time, the underworld soldiers walked by Xuanzhou City at night. Yuchi Baolin rode a tall horse and followed him all the way to Qingyang County, Chizhou. This imperial general, the son of Yuchi Jingde, was in Guiwei Realm cultivation. Later, Ao Tian's corpse changed, and Yuchi Baolin's whereabouts were unknown after taking the move. Lu Xin originally thought that even if this person was not dead, he would definitely be seriously injured. But now it seems that this is not the case.
However, it is no wonder that Lu Xin did not recognize it. At that time, Yuchi Baolin was covered in armor. In addition, it was night, and the distance was far away, so she couldn't see clearly. Although she had a chance to meet, the other party appeared at this time, and it was obvious that the person who came was not good.
"It turns out that he is the chief manager and he is polite. But this ambergris has been booked by them, I..."
"It's okay, I will deal with their affairs. As long as Mrs. Xiao handed me the ambergris, it would be no problem for how much money."
Yuchi Baolin walked into the secret room and didn't even look at Lu Xin's reaction. While speaking, she reached out and waved her hand. Lu Xin and Zhao Li both froze on the spot and could not move. Seeing this, Mrs. Xiao pondered for a moment, but she started to laugh.
"The silver is 80,000 taels, and the bonus is exempted. It is also considered a little girl, and she respects her filial piety to General Yuchi."
Mrs. Xiao took the box and walked forward two steps, then handed it to Yuchi Baolin, not caring about Yinzi's whereabouts. Lu Xin was furious when he saw this. Although he could not raise his foot, he suddenly roared.
"Mrs. Xiao, since ancient times, has always had a rule of coming first and coming later, let alone you do business? This ambergris was bought by the younger generation. If you give it to others, aren't you afraid that the Xiao Mansion's business can never continue?"
"What did you say? Boy, I, Yuchi Baolin, do you still need your guidance?"
