Demoness, Where Are You Fleeing To?

Chapter 148 The cauldron is the weapon of the emperor

After calming down, Li Xuan turned his attention back to Shopkeeper Han.

In fact, he didn't pay much attention to it, but when the shopkeeper opened his mouth to introduce, Li Xuan pretended to look at it carefully for a few times, then nodded or shook his head.

On this floor of Xuanyi's residence, there are mostly gold and stone ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, gold, silver and bronze wares. Although they are not magic weapons or heavenly materials and earthly treasures, they are all exquisite in shape and extremely gorgeous in decoration, so they are also expensive.

Of course, this is only a relative term, so most of them are stolen goods, either stolen antiques from Jinling or from tombs, so the price is less than 30% of the market price.

Perhaps considering that the visitors from the grassland were not interested in calligraphy, painting and jade, shopkeeper Han introduced them to various gems, porcelain and metal crafts.

"The three of you have found the right place. If you want to say that it is easy to carry, rare, valuable, and can be sold for a big price, then besides jade, there is nothing more than these porcelains from the imperial cellars of the past dynasties. Jun kiln, Ding kiln , blue and white porcelain, we all have it here, they are all rare and exquisite products. As for cheap and affordable, then in this boat city, our Xuanyi ranks second, no one dares to say first. "

Shopkeeper Han smiled brightly: "Since Brother Luo is here, I will tell you the truth. The origin of the things here is indeed very problematic, but there is no such problem on the grassland. Those police officers will not find a few This is the Khan's territory, right? Besides, for Brother Luo's sake, if the goods you purchase today are large in quantity, I can give you a further discount on the current price."

Luo Yan smiled and shook his head: "Forget about porcelain. Porcelain is fragile. Their grassland tribe lives in pursuit of water and grass and cannot afford such precious things. The shopkeeper should introduce them to some gems, gold and silverware, but I see here There are not many high-end ones, they are all ordinary things. By the way, I wonder if there is cloisonné sold here? This kind of copper is very rare on the grassland. Each piece is worth tens of thousands of gold, but there is no market for it. The utensils are even more precious.”

"Gold and silverware? Cloisonné?"

Shopkeeper Han frowned. He looked at Li Xuan and others. After a while, he regained his smile and said, "We happen to have a few pieces of cloisonné here. A few guests are here."

He led several people to a corner, then opened a nearby cabinet and took out six golden bowls.

Li Xuan's eyes suddenly revealed a hint of strangeness, and he recognized that this was the 'Golden Silk Enamel Golden Dragon Cup' in the Shadow Talisman.

He took a step forward and took the copper bowl in his hand as if he couldn't put it down. He played with it for a long time before signaling to Le Qianqian.

Le Qianqian pretended to say a few words to Li Xuan in Mongolian, and then timidly whispered to Luo Yan. The latter immediately nodded, turned to Shopkeeper Han and said, "Master Taiji said this is indeed cloisonné, and the craftsmanship is excellent. He likes it very much. How much does it cost?"

Shopkeeper Han looked slightly happy and held out a finger: "This is the top-grade royal-made copperware, and our store has a huge stake in it. So even if you, Brother Luo, are the winner, the price is It cannot be less than one thousand two hundred taels of silver."

"It's worth the price!" Luo Yan nodded: "Under normal circumstances, this thing will never be less than three thousand taels. I wonder if there are more? Just six bowls can't feed my customers. appetite."

Shopkeeper Han was obviously hesitant again: "This? How rare is this cloisonné? Where do you want me to find it at this time -"

Luo Yan laughed and opened the folding fan with a loud bang: "Don't worry, shopkeeper, my customer just made a big deal. Now he is short of everything except money. If this business is completed, there will be no shortage." Good for you, shopkeeper.”

As if in response to Luo Yan's words, Peng Fulai opened his pocket, and there were stacks of banknotes in denominations of thousands of taels. At a glance, it is impossible to estimate the approximate number.

Shopkeeper Han's eyes suddenly showed a strong sense of greed, and his breathing became a little heavier. He thought for a while and said in a serious voice: "Please wait a few guests! Xiao Shao, go and get a few people. Take out the contents of the box."

They waited for about two minutes and looked at several items introduced by Shopkeeper Han. Then a few stout servants arrived at the third floor carrying two heavy boxes.

When the two large boxes were opened, a brilliant brilliance was seen. Inside were a pile of gold- and silver-inlaid utensils, which were either gorgeous, delicate, heavy, or elegant.

"A total of twenty-three pieces of cloisonné are in this. Including the remaining twelve 'golden enamel golden dragon lamps'. In addition, there are five pieces of goldware with gold filigree and twenty-five pieces of gold-gilt bronze. . They are all rare imperial masterpieces. Master Taiji can take them as long as he can afford the money——"

But at this time, Li Xuan's eyes were locked on one of the objects, and he couldn't move his eyes away for a moment.

It is a strangely shaped and extremely exquisite 'Four-legged Gilded Golden Dragon Cauldron'. It is also made of cloisonné craftsmanship. It is completely blue and is inlaid with twelve palm-sized pieces of Pei Cui and twenty-four pieces of Hetian jade. It looks brilliant, gorgeous and noble.

What is interesting is that tripods usually use the Nine Sons of the Dragon or mythical beasts such as the Four Elephants and Four Spirits as their totems.

But the lower four legs of this round tripod are shaped like the giant tortoise ‘Ba Xia’. The top is directly decorated with "golden dragons" as reliefs. There are four in total. The carvings are extremely exquisite. The lifelike golden dragons coil around the body of the cauldron. Then they each occupy one side and poke their heads out from the southeast and northwest, aiming their dragon heads into the cauldron.

This should be the most precious piece of all the gold and bronze objects in the box, but what really made Li Xuan lose his mind was the reaction of the female ghost in red.

She actually ran out of the scroll of Zhengqi Song and looked at the object intently.

Since the incident in the underworld, when the female ghost in red chose to seal herself, this was the first time Li Xuan saw her have such a strong reaction.

Li Xuan's mind was slightly concentrated, and he walked over and took the 'Four-legged Gilded Golden Dragon Cauldron' in his hand to play with it. He felt that the reaction of the female ghost in red was even stronger, and a strong possessive desire actually entered his soul.

"Master Taiji seems to like this thing very much?"

Shopkeeper Han smiled as expected: "Although this object is not a weapon, a merchant from Nanyang has already offered it a high price of 120,000 taels of silver. I thought the price was too low and did not sell it, but if Taiwan Master Ji likes it and can take it away with an additional price of fifty thousand taels."

Li Xuan still looked dazed and had no reaction at all.

Le Qianqian saw something wasn't right about his expression, so she leaned into his ear and asked with a secret voice: "Sir, what are you doing?"

"It's my guardian spirit." Li Xuan smiled bitterly and responded in a secret voice: "I can't let go!"

At this time, the surroundings of the 'Four-legged Gilded Golden Dragon Cauldron' were already surrounded by dense silk threads and bloody streamers.

The female ghost in red clearly expressed her determination to win with this attitude.

Le Qianqian looked stunned, took a closer look at the golden dragon cauldron, and then said thoughtfully: "The cauldron carries the weight of the country and the country! This vessel uses the underlord as the tripod foot and the golden dragon as the carving. It is a unique tool for cultivating the dragon's energy. Excellent artifact. Sir, remember what I told you before, right? Your wish-keeping spirit is the property of an emperor, and only an emperor's instrument can match it."

Li Xuan's pupils dilated: "Le Qianqian, what do you mean?"

"The cauldron is the weapon of the emperor! The five-clawed golden dragon and the underlord are also sacred beasts that symbolize imperial power. Their appearance and shape are naturally in line with the way of heaven. Therefore, there is no need for seal-carving talisman formations for objects like this, as long as there are suitable people , cultivated in a suitable way, it is a natural magic weapon, and it is the best."

Le Qianqian pointed at the 'four-legged gilded Baxia Golden Dragon Cauldron' in Li Xuan's hand and said: "And this is obviously made by a skilled craftsman. I can feel the golden dragons and Baxia, they are breathing and swimming. It seems that it can come back to life at any time. But I think the shape of this cauldron is not complete yet. Looking at the golden dragon dancing, there should be another heavy weapon on it to calm the dragon's energy. "

Luo Yan couldn't help frowning slightly when she saw the two of them whispering to each other without caring about the overall situation.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before Le Qianqian muttered a few words to him in Mongolian. Luo Yan immediately closed the folding fan and said, "I bought it! But 170,000 taels is a bit expensive. I hope the shopkeeper can give me a suitable price." , Mr. Taiji said that the things in this cabinet are complete.

Apart from this, do you have more of this cloisonné? Master Taiji said that the tripod was incomplete and there should be something on it. Shopkeeper, I'm afraid these things don't all come from the palace? This is really a big deal. It's rare for you to meet a suitable customer, so why not clear it all at once. "

Shopkeeper Han was obviously very moved, but after he looked at everyone for the third time, he still shook his head with a wry smile: "Brother Luo, this is making things difficult for me. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net To be honest, this cloisonné is just Someone else left something for sale in our Xuanyiju. That person may still have it, but I don’t know exactly what it is.”

As this person spoke, he rubbed a ring on his hand: "Why don't you buy these things first, and then I will help you contact them? It won't take long, just bother a few guests to stay in Yangzhou for a few days. Can."

Luo Yan noticed the movements of this man's hands, and there was a slight glint in his eyes. Then he turned to look at Li Xuan calmly: "Master Taiji, I wonder what you mean?"

He seemed to be asking Li Xuan for instructions, but Li Xuan understood Luo Yan's eyes in an instant. The shopkeeper might have become suspicious of them! If we don't take action, things may change later.

Li Xuan didn't hesitate, and without thinking, he signaled the three people behind him to take action.

Le Qianqian was the first to activate. She raised her hand and a bright yellow talisman was shot out. In an instant, the building fell silent, and there was no more sound.

——The words of shopkeeper Han, the exclamations of several Xuanyiju servants nearby, and the sound of Li Xuan's footsteps all seemed to be drawn away by a mysterious force, unable to make even the slightest sound.

Not only the sound, but even the spiritual energy on this floor of Xuanyiju became extremely stagnant, as if it was stuck in place.
