After leaving the pair of master and servant, Li Qiye turned over the wooden Buddha in his hand, flipped it a few times, and then looked at Bai Jinning next to him.
Bai Jinning couldn't help but look at the wooden Buddha in Li Qiye's hand and couldn't bear to look away. This was not only because the wooden Buddha was bought for 100 million.
"It seems that you have a special liking for this wooden Buddha." Li Qiye smiled lightly.
From the very beginning, Bai Jinning's eyes were attracted to this wooden Buddha, as if he had never moved away.
"It, it was once pawned by us." Bai Jinning didn't know what kind of expression he had at this time, so he could only laugh dryly, had to look away from the wooden Buddha, and said in a very soft voice. After a sentence, he said: "It, it, it was once an heirloom of our family, passed down from our ancestors a long time ago."
"Is your family related to Buddha?" Li Qiye smiled and casually shook the wooden Buddha in his hand.
When Li Qiye casually shook the wooden Buddha, Bai Jinning couldn't help but feel frightened. Her eyes couldn't help but jump up and down. Her heart was hanging below her throat. She was afraid that Li Qiye might not pay attention and fail. Catch this wooden Buddha, what if it falls to the ground and is smashed to pieces.
"I, I, I don't know." Bai Jinning was restless at this time. Her eyes followed the wooden Buddha beating up and down, and said: "Anyway, when I was very young, it, it was at home, Later, my family pawned it for me to practice."
Bai Jinning was born in the borderland, but according to the old people in her family, they moved here from the Xiantong world. As for the reason for moving, the old people in her family no longer know.
I learned from the old people at home that when they were still in the Xiantong world, their family was rich and powerful, but later it declined. After arriving in the borderland, it continued to decline day by day. As life became more and more sad, the family members All the valuable things were pawned off one by one, and in the end only this wooden Buddha remained.
I heard from the elderly in the family that this wooden Buddha is an heirloom of their family. People in the family have worshiped this wooden Buddha for generations. I heard that it is precisely because of this wooden Buddha that they have protected their family from generation to generation. safe and sound.
However, as Bai Jinning grew up, there was nothing valuable in their home to pawn.
At this point, their family has also declined. At this time, the elderly in their family also want to rise up. After all, there are fewer and fewer people in their family who are cultivators. If they don't rise up, their family will be completely destroyed. He became a mortal and completely severed ties with the monk world.
In the end, in order for Bai Jinning to practice Taoism, the old man in their family ruthlessly pawned the wooden Buddha to provide Bai Jinning with enough money to practice Taoism.
Bai Jinning lived up to the expectations of the elders in her family, which also made her a good fortune and became the squad leader of the Tianqian Army.
Although it is said that Bai Jinning's body is not invincible in the entire Xiantong world, he can still be regarded as a strong man. However, for their family, he is the strongest in recent generations. A great disciple.
Bai Jinning did not expect that to this day, he would still be able to see the wooden Buddha that was pawned by his family. This can be regarded as a fate.
Therefore, when Bai Jinning saw this wooden Buddha in the window cabinet, she was deeply attracted by it and could not move her eyes anymore. However, the price of 300,000 yuan was beyond her ability.
However, what happened next was far beyond her imagination. Li Qiye actually bought this wooden Buddha at the most outrageous price.
"The old man at home said that this, this wooden Buddha, will bless generations of peace." At this time, Bai Jinning was nervous. She was frightened when she saw Li Qiye tossing the wooden Buddha in his hand.
At this time, Bai Jinning couldn't help but worry whether the wooden Buddha that protected her home would be shattered into pieces in Li Qiye's hands. Although this wooden Buddha no longer belonged to her, she also knew that this wooden Buddha no longer belonged to her. It seems that she will never get it back in her life. After all, at a price of 100 million, she will never be able to get so much money in her entire life.
Despite this, even if this wooden Buddha no longer belongs to their family, Bai Jinning does not want to be smashed to pieces by Li Qiye.
"Can a Buddha keep people safe?" Li Qiye smiled, disapprovingly, and still shook the wooden Buddha in his hand again and again.
"Don't dump it -" In the end, Bai Jinning was so frightened that he stopped Li Qiye's palm and couldn't help but glared at Li Qiye and said, "What if you break it?" Do it? This is worth 100 million anyway."
Li Qiye grabbed the wooden Buddha in his hand and couldn't help laughing, and said: "If it is so easy to be broken, it will be impossible to keep your family safe from generation to generation. If it breaks even if it is dropped lightly, it will be like this." If you can't protect yourself, how can you protect others?" Hearing such a weird argument, Bai Jinning couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Such an argument was really weird, but it made sense after hearing it.
However, this wooden Buddha had been kept at home for worship, and Bai Jinning didn't know if it had been broken.
No matter what, Bai Jinning finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Qiye holding the wooden Buddha. Seeing Li Qiye's nonchalant look, Bai Jinning didn't understand. Putting 100 million things in his hands, He doesn't care at all.
"You, why did you spend 100 million to buy it?" Bai Jinning was a little confused. He looked at Li Qiye and said, "Even if you pay 30 million, you can already buy it."
Li Qiye went crazy and spent 100 million to buy such a wooden Buddha. At first, Bai Jinning thought that Li Qiye really liked this wooden Buddha, and maybe he even loved it.
Now it seems that there is no such thing at all. Seeing Li Qiye throw away the 100 million wooden Buddha as if it was worthless, Bai Jinning suddenly understood that Li Qiye bought this He didn't really like the wooden Buddha, or it was very possible that he just bought it casually.
"Is there any difference?" Li Qiye smiled and said casually: "Just like when you go to the street to eat a steamed bun in the morning, for your status today, a meat bun sells for three copper coins or ten copper coins. Is there any difference in price?”
"No, there's no difference." Bai Jinning was stunned and said.
Although, in the world of Xiantong, in a world like those of immortal gods and invincible true emperors, she is just an insignificant person.
However, if we say that in the mortal world, with the financial resources she has today, she would spend three copper coins or ten copper coins to buy a bun, whether it is three copper coins or ten copper coins, such a price, such The number, for her, was very numb, because it was an insignificant amount.
Even if a bun is only worth three copper coins, she can pay ten coins for it.
"That's right." Li Qiye smiled and said casually: "Thirty million and one hundred million, there is no difference to me, they are all the same."
Li Qiye's extremely casual words immediately made Bai Jinning choke.
Whether 30 million or 100 million, it is an astronomical figure that is out of reach for her. Even for many powerful people in the world, not to mention little people like her, those Taoists and princes of great religions. There are even existences like Ming Wang Zuotong and Ming Wang Youtong. For them, 30 million or 100 million is a huge sum.
However, in Li Qiye's eyes, that was just an insignificant amount, as if to her, it was as much as three copper coins.
Such a gap is so suffocating. At this time, Bai Jinning can only think of one word - a world of difference.
"However, it is worth the price." When Bai Jinning was suffocating, Li Qiye said leisurely.
"It, it, it's worth 100 million?" Bai Jinning was stunned, feeling incredible, and his beautiful eyes widened.
In her memory, when her family pawned the wooden Buddha, they heard that it only cost 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. Later, it changed hands several times and it rose to 300,000 yuan.
Such a price is already outrageous in Bai Jinning's heart. With her current financial resources, she cannot buy it back at such a price.
However, now Li Qiye actually said it was worth 100 million, why didn't this frighten Bai Jinning.
Although this wooden Buddha has always been an heirloom of their family, for Bai Jinning, its greater value lies in its symbolic meaning, which symbolizes the unity and eternity of their family, and also symbolizes Their family will be in peace forever.
In Bai Jinning's view, this wooden Buddha is not a treasure, it is just a token.
If she really had the money for three hundred thousand, she would definitely buy it back. At a price of three million, she would consider it.
If it is 100 million, then for Bai Jinning, even if she had the money, she would not buy it back. After all, such a wooden Buddha is just a token, not a treasure. The price of 100 million , that’s really outrageous.
However, now Li Qiye actually said that this wooden Buddha is worth 100 million. How could this not frighten Bai Jinning?
"It's worth adding a few more numbers. How can a mere immortal real stone compare with it?" Li Qiye smiled and said: "Although I have so much money that it burns my hands, I still don't want to spend money to buy a piece of garbage. , if it is garbage, it will not be in my eyes."
Bai Jinning was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and felt that Li Qiye's words made sense. Just imagine, before leaving, Li Qiye didn't even take a second look at the many treasures in the store. Moreover, these treasures could be given away for free, but he was unmoved, which meant that these treasures were not included at all. Li Qiye has Dharma Eyes.
"It, it, it's really so valuable." For a moment, Bai Jinning looked at the wooden Buddha in Li Qiye's hand with some stupidity.
She had grown up looking at this wooden Buddha. She had seen this wooden Buddha countless times, but she had never seen that this wooden Buddha was worth such a sky-high price.
"If you can see it, that would be amazing." Li Qiye smiled and said: "Your ancestors are considered capable people. Since they are capable, would they just take such a wood carving as a family heirloom? ?" "It seems so." Bai Jinning was stunned.
Although their family is now in complete decline, I heard from the elders in the family that their ancestors were once very wealthy.
Since their ancestors were once rich and powerful, they must have had astonishing wealth. In an era of astonishing wealth, their ancestors still regarded such a wooden Buddha as a family heirloom.
Just imagine, such a wooden Buddha, would it be an ordinary wooden sculpture?
Before that, Bai Jinning didn't think deeply about this problem. Now after being woken up by Li Qiye at one o'clock, Bai Jinning suddenly felt that it was not that simple.
"Then, then, what is it?" He finally came back to his senses and said, "It, it, was it really shaped by Lengyao Buddha himself?"
In the past, this wooden Buddha was just a token in her heart.
