Niu Sanpi disguised himself as a woodcutter and went straight to the posthouse carrying firewood.
Seeing him like this, Mu Sheng would have almost not recognized him if he hadn't announced his family name.
Mu Sheng asked curiously, "Niu Sanbei, why are you doing this? In addition to the government, your Green Snake Sect is the most powerful in Xiangcheng. What are you afraid of? Just come to the door openly and honestly."
Niu Sanbei said with a flattering smile, "Reporting to the Immortal, I have some unavoidable difficulties, so I would like to ask the Immortal to lend me a step to speak."
Seeing this situation, Mu Sheng had no choice but to welcome him into his room.
After Niu Sanpi came in, he suddenly relaxed and bowed and said, "The little man Niu Sanpi believes that he has fulfilled his mission and has investigated the cause and effect of the fragment of the magical artifact. I will explain the whole story in detail..."
Niu Sanbei said, "Chief Immortal, according to our Green Snake Sect's investigation, it turns out that this magical artifact fragment was left behind by a small sect called Shenjian Sect. This sect is very good at setting up sword formations. This is indeed a set of magical artifacts. Twelve identical magic weapons are needed to form a sword formation, so there are numbers on the magic weapons."
"Furthermore, it is said that this sect can use sword-controlling skills to seize people's heads thousands of miles away. At that time, the Shenjian Sect relied on a set of sword-controlling skills and sword formations to dominate the spiritual world. Even the powerful sects at that time did not dare to provoke them easily. But later I heard that more than 400 years ago, the Divine Sword Sect was involved in the internal struggle for royal power in the Zhongyue Kingdom and a deadly fight between the powerful officials of the Zhongyue Kingdom. The leader of the Divine Sword Sect was killed, and the Divine Sword Sect gradually declined."
"Only a few decades later, the Yue Kingdom was destroyed by the Jin Kingdom. The Divine Sword Sect quickly disappeared from the world of cultivation, and no cultivation techniques were scattered in the world. After that, no one knew its whereabouts. We Qing Sect The Shemen also obtained these magical artifacts by accidentally digging up the coffins of their descendants, and a total of four swords were unearthed."
Niu Sanbei said, "Immortal Chang, you have one in your hand, and the others have been sold to others. As for the sword-controlling skills, according to the villain's speculation, they have been lost long ago. Do you want us to go and find out more?" …”
Mu Sheng muttered to himself, "Sword-controlling skills? What a pity, it has been lost again. If there are no cultivation techniques to complement each other, even if you get that set of magical tools, it will be useless..."
Of course Mu Sheng knew what he meant by probing, which meant that he had to pay more!
After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, Mu Sheng said, "Forget it, that's it."
After that, Mu Sheng paid the agreed three thousand gold in addition to the deposit to find out the information. Although it was a bit painful, there was nothing he could do about it. This was the rule.
They are traveling to the local area to investigate, and they are looking through ancient books and history books to find clues for you. The manpower, material resources and time involved all require activity funds.
Seeing that the transaction was completed and the money was received, Liu Sanpi also beamed with joy. He rolled his eyes and said, "Xian Chang, there will be a magic weapon for sale in this transaction. I think you have already participated in the auction because of your generosity, Xian Chang. It is not convenient for me to ask." Whether the immortal can capture the magic weapon, but the villain has a treasure that he wants the immortal to see, I believe the immortal will be interested."
When Mu Sheng heard this, his eyes flashed and he said, "Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
Niu Sanbei hesitated and said, "The Immortal Chief is of great importance. I took a huge risk by coming here this time. If this matter is found out by this sect, I, Lao Niu, will be purged from the sect."
Mu Shengxin said, no wonder Niu Sanpi was disguised and mysterious at the beginning. It seemed that he was making extra money behind the Green Snake Sect...
Mu Sheng asked curiously, "What kind of treasure is it? That makes you so cautious?"
Liu Sanpi looked around. Even though there were only two of us in the room, he seemed to be afraid that the walls had ears, so he came up and whispered to Mu Sheng...
When Mu Sheng heard the news, he sat up straight, looked into his eyes and asked, "Are you serious? If you dare to deceive me, do you want to learn my methods?"
Niu Sanbei quickly waved his hand to please him and said, "The immortal is joking. The villain is just a mortal, how dare he deceive the immortal."
What Liu Sanbei told Mu Sheng was that he still had a magic weapon in his hand, which was dug out by his brothers, but he did not turn it over to the Green Snake Sect. When he saw Mu Sheng's generous spending, he wanted to hide it from the Green Snake Sect. Deal with him privately to see if Mu Sheng has any intention to acquire it.
At this moment, Mu Sheng was also wondering if he was using this matter as bait to lure him into seeking money. After all, the huge sum of money he could bring was enough to tempt the average monk. It was entirely possible that he was colluding with others!
But Mu Sheng then thought about it and realized that he had already spent almost all his money on the magic weapon. It should not be a problem, even if it was possible to conspire with the magic weapon in the auction house, he was cautious and decided to pretend to be confused.
Mu Sheng said, "Why do you think I have the strength to acquire magic weapons?"
The Niu Sanpi smiled slyly and said, "The villain has always been very keen on observing details. According to my observations over the past few days and analyzing the traffic patterns, the villain saw that when the immortal came, the large vehicle that transported money was already a light vehicle. According to the villain, It is inferred that, Immortal Chief, you should have won the magic weapon from the auction house, right?"
Mu Sheng didn't say anything after hearing this, so he acquiesced. He said in his heart, he didn't expect that this person did have a lot of skills, and he was worthy of being an old man.
After observing Mu Sheng's expression, Niu Sanbei said, "I think it's not difficult to get a magic weapon with your family fortune."
At this time, Mu Sheng laughed and said, "To be honest, the belongings I brought from home have been almost squandered. If I want to get a magic weapon, I will really be powerless!"
At this time, Niu Sanpi rolled his eyes and said, "Immortal, it seems you still can't trust me. Immortal, are you afraid that I will set you up?"
Seeing that Mu Sheng didn't say anything, Niu Sanbei said sincerely, "Master Immortal, you can rest assured. I, Niu Sanbei, have always been honest and honest in my work and will never harm my guests."
At this time, Niu Sanbei seemed to have made up his mind. He turned around and rummaged through the firewood frame on his back to find a very thick and long piece of wood. It looked unremarkable on the outside.
I saw him taking out the wood and slapping it left and right with both hands, and it turned out that it was hollow in the middle...
Mu Sheng stepped forward to check, and there was a dark red sword-shaped magic weapon inside.
Mu Sheng couldn't help but secretly marvel. He was creative. He stepped forward, observed it carefully, and then picked up the magic weapon and played with it in his hands. It was indeed a genuine product and a fire attribute magic weapon.
Mu Sheng played with it for a while and then put it back. He gave up the idea of killing people and grabbing treasures after a brief thought.
Since Niu Sanpi dared to show the magic weapon in front of him, it meant that he had already prepared a backup plan. Based on his performance, he was a thoughtful person.
Mu Sheng did not hesitate, he had to ask about the price first!
"Can you give me a price?"
Niu Sanpi said, "The villain doesn't want much, eighty thousand gold is enough."
Mu Sheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "So cheap?"
Mu Shengxin said that the magic weapon was indeed real, but he didn't know how powerful it was, but the price was indeed too cheap for a magic weapon. Generally speaking, the benchmark purchase price of a magic weapon was 150,000 gold. Going up, the magic weapon in Niu Sanpi's hand is basically a half-price promotion.
Niu Sanpi frowned and said with a smile, "Immortal is so heroic. This is the hard work of the villain and his brothers. The Green Snake Sect doesn't know about it. If you are willing to take it, you can save a lot of handling fees. For those of us, To a mortal, this magic weapon is no different than a fire stick, useless. Eighty thousand gold is money that cannot be spent in several lifetimes, it is enough."
Mu Sheng did not hesitate after hearing this and directly finalized the transaction details with Niu Sanbei.
It's rare to see such a cheap thing. Eighty thousand gold for a magic weapon? If you resell it to someone else, you can make a profit of 50,000 to 60,000 gold. I am lucky to have missed it this time.
The magic weapon is an important treasure, and Niu Sanbei himself understands that this is a hot potato and he must get rid of it as soon as possible. Ordinary people like him dare not cast a wide net to resell it. He can only choose the buyer very carefully. Once the buyer is contacted If the news spreads to the Green Snake Sect, then he will definitely have to move. Mu Sheng guessed that he might be the only buyer Niu Sanbei found.
Mu Sheng really had no money at the moment and had to rush back to Beijing to raise funds. When he thought about the money, the angry expression of the housekeeper Po Yun'er flashed in his mind. He had a slight headache. After spending this money, he could really say it. Lord Changping's treasury has been completely squandered, and he will still have to find another way to raise funds...
A few days later, Hua Zilan and Mu Sheng's cavalry of more than a dozen people returned to the capital's mansion.
As soon as Mu Sheng entered the house, he hurried to Yun'er's boudoir. When he saw Yun'er standing in front of him, he couldn't help but rushed forward and held Yun'er's hand tightly. The delicate body is held in his arms.
He recalled that he almost couldn't come back to the world of ancient treasures, and he still felt a little afraid that he might never see Yun'er again.
At this moment, Mu Sheng's eyes were staring deeply at Yun'er, and he felt a sense of joy in his heart, and he had mixed feelings for a while.
Yun'er was a little confused and said, "Husband, what's wrong with you?"
Mu Sheng said with a trembling tone, "It's okay, I just miss you so much."
Yun'er was a little surprised by Mu Sheng's performance, and at the same time she felt a little sweet in her heart. They had only been separated for a few days, and her husband couldn't live without her.
Hearing this, Yun'er snuggled tightly against Mu Sheng's chest. She looked at him with a blushing face and said, "Husband, when are we going to go to our godfather's house to talk about the two of us?"
Mu Sheng glanced at the shy Yun'er and said, "Are you so anxious to get in?"
Yun'er blushed and punched him and said, "I hate you... I won't pay attention to you."
Mu Sheng grabbed her catkins and said with a smile, "Okay, we will visit Mr. Shaofu tomorrow."
Mu Sheng thought for a long time, then remembered Liu Sanpo's magic weapon, and asked, "Yun'er, I remember if there is still 60,000 gold in the treasury?"
When Yun'er heard this, she immediately became alert and said in a bad tone, "Husband, what else do you want to do? The family only has this little money left, and they still have to maintain the daily expenses of the house. I prepared 250,000 gold for my husband before. Is it possible?" All spent?”
When Mu Sheng saw this situation, he immediately laughed and said, "It's okay, I just wanted to ask."
Seeing Yun'er's expression, Mu Sheng shouldn't be able to ask for a penny anymore, but she is right. If she squanders it, she will really lose everything...
Mu Sheng secretly sighed in his heart. He had just pretended to be a rich man, but a magic weapon was immediately knocked back to its original form. This practice was too expensive. I and Qian Huhou were all wiped out. Others As you can imagine, monks basically have to rely on the support of the sect's resources, otherwise they won't even have the right guys to run around...
But I have already promised Niu Sanpi's deal, are I going to break my promise?
At this moment, a figure flashed in Mu Sheng's mind. Maybe he could help him, but he would first visit his uncle's house tomorrow and let Yun'er get through smoothly first...
