"This?" Ning Xia was slightly surprised and subconsciously touched her forehead.
She had thought of many incompatible reasons, but she never expected it to unfold like this.
These two people stopped her not for anything, but for the hairband on her head, which was Chaoyun given by the headmaster. Earth-level magic weapons are just a little short of being able to reach heaven-level, even if they don't dazzle.
This hairband has been used by Zhenjun Yuanheng since she came back from Cloud Island. The divine thoughts and fragments sealed in it can save her life.
Gradually, she got used to the slightly flashy hairband, and she forgot that she usually walked around with an earth-level magic weapon on her head.
As a result, before she even used it herself, someone knowledgeable took notice of it...but there was no way she could sell it.
"That's right. I was sitting in a separate room with my Taoist friend down below. I happened to face the back and saw him. I wonder if my friend can part with me?" Cai Ye said sincerely.
Ningxia knew something about it. The booth they were sitting in was elegantly decorated in the style favored by today's literati, which emphasizes subtle beauty. Therefore, the separated seats are rigidly framed and well-proportioned, and the partition surfaces are also hollowed out, so that one can see the silhouettes of people on the other side.
Originally, Cai Ye's attention was on the conversation with Cai Yan, and he did not pay attention to the conversations of the people around him. But the problem was that Ningxia's headband was too shiny. It was polarized and difficult to ignore under the light. Cai Ye saw it immediately.
So he couldn't sit still immediately. Isn't this the moving thing they need and have been looking for for a long time? As soon as he and his brother figured it out, they immediately thought about talking to this fellow Taoist to see if they could buy something.
At that time, they felt that this fellow Taoist was indeed more defensive, but his temper was still good and his attitude was quite restrained, which made them feel that there was hope. So just when they were about to persuade them hard, they even thought about the things they would use in exchange for bribes, but...
Now things are back to square one. Although this fellow Taoist was probably unhappy, he finally opened up the conversation and the other party was finally willing to talk.
The Cai brothers believe that as long as the exchange terms they offer are generous enough, the possibility of this fellow Taoist being persuaded by them will be greatly increased.
As if he could see what Cai Yan and Cai Ye were thinking, Cai Yi next to him shook his head. He was still too young. What could he do after he made a mistake at the beginning? But he didn't intend to interfere with the children's behavior. Although he was the caregiver of the two, he couldn't do everything for him.
Ning Xia shook her head: "This is a gift from the elders and should not be transferred to others."
Refused.
Cai Yan and Cai Ye looked at each other in shock. They didn't expect that they both offered such generous offers and the other party rejected them. Could it be that the conditions they gave were not enough?
Given by elders? This is an excuse. Cai Yan felt that maybe the conditions they offered were not attractive enough, so they refused.
As if he was afraid that Ningxia would leave immediately, he said quickly: "If fellow Taoists feel that what we have given is not enough, we can discuss it again. Our grandfather will come back later, and he may be able to provide some things that our brothers don't have. Maybe there will be something fellow Taoists want."
Cai Yan's mouth was too fast, and the words came out all at once. Even if Cai Ye wanted to, it was too late.
Cai Ye couldn't help but cover his head, feeling that his head hurt more and more. His brother...didn't he hear that it was a gift from an elder, so shouldn't it be transferred to him?
The key points in her words came out. Translated, this thing has a special meaning to others, and she will not and cannot transfer it. Isn't this clear enough?
This stupid big brother of his actually thought it was a problem with the spirit stone, but it wasn't at all, okay? Do you know that you look like a nouveau riche with empty spiritual stones?
Fortunately, the other party did not misunderstand the nature of his eldest brother. He only shook his head slightly and said politely: "It's not about the spiritual stone."
"I'm sorry, this is a gift from an elder. I cherish it very much and don't want to sell it in exchange for something." Ning Xia emphasized again.
Besides, what she lacks now is not the spiritual stone, but something else more important.
When things developed like this, Ningxia really didn't want to continue arguing with the other party, so she wanted to stand up and say goodbye, not wanting the person opposite to speak out again. After all, this is what the other party said, let her come and go as she pleases and will not stop her...
"Little friend, wait a minute."
Um? you again? ! This is the third time that the other party has been involved in this matter, which made Ningxia have some bad feelings about him.
Isn't this person too annoying? ! Why do you always have to put on a smart face, but in fact you are very annoying. There are thousands of people in this world, and naturally there are thousands of different kinds. Ningxia never uses her own standards to measure others, she just thinks they are a bit annoying.
She looked at the other party slightly suspiciously: "I wonder if you have any advice, senior?" She was asking knowingly, and what the other party was going to say must be related to her hair tie.
She has been observing each other since just now. Even though he acted like he was lazy and didn't care about the Cai brothers, his eyes were fixed on them and he almost never left them.
The opponent's sitting position is also a bit subtle, making it easy to attack and defend. It seems that he can attack the opponent's target at any time.
The repeated interruptions and interruptions were seamlessly connected, which showed that this person was always paying attention to what was happening on their side, and would not even miss a point.
Not to mention that the other party was paying attention to her... most likely, they were following the brothers. I was afraid that she would hurt the Cai brothers if she mentioned anything else.
Now that the two brothers have hit a wall with her, the other party will naturally not sit still and wait for death.
Ningxia wanted to see what this person could come up with.
"Don't be anxious, little friend. You might as well sit down for a while. These can all be discussed easily."
After explaining repeatedly that the other party was still so stubborn, Ningxia also became a little irritable when asked: "I don't..."
"If you really don't want to sell it, can you let me wait for a while so that I can have an eye-opening experience? In exchange, the eldest brother and the others promised not less." Cai Yi put forward a condition that made Ningxia extremely excited. .
The price is clearly marked, good guy, she is really moved... and there is such a good thing. If you can get so many benefits by borrowing it for a look as he said, then you would be a fool if you don't do it.
But the question is how can she ensure that the other party will not burn bridges if they get the thing? Ningxia is very afraid that when the hairband is worn, the meat bun will beat the dog, and it will never look back.
"You don't have to worry. I must have told you before that our Cai family never does such shady things. Besides, if there are really forced thoughts, my little friend will not be able to stay here safely until now."
She looked at the two brothers with heavy expectant eyes, and finally nodded: "Then go...please——"
“A pleasure to work with.”
