Ding! Ding!
When the two payment sounds sounded one after another, the transaction was considered completed.
The eyes of Qin Yang and Senior Brother Gu immediately turned to the painting, but neither of them made any move first.
The bystanders did not disperse. After all, they knew that the painting did not belong to any one person, and there should be a process of dividing the paintings next.
"Am I coming, or are you coming?"
Qin Yang looked at it for a moment and finally asked softly.
In fact, he only knew a little about the lightning strike wood. He didn't know what the purpose of this thing was.
His real purpose is in another direction.
In this case, there is no need to worry about the matter of lightning striking the wood anymore, the more important thing is to get what you want as soon as possible.
"Let me do it. This thing is too expensive. I'm afraid you'll break it."
Now that the payment has been made, Senior Brother Gu no longer hides it.
Hearing the words "too expensive" in his mouth, the stall owner always felt like he had been cheated.
It was obvious that he was a profiteer, and that painting was obviously a fake painting and not worth much at all. How could he feel like this?
"Brother Gu, can you tell me what this lightning-struck wood is?"
Qin Yang next to him was also a little curious. After giving up his seat, he couldn't help but ask, but a mysterious look appeared on Senior Brother Gu's face.
Brother Gu did not answer Qin Yang, but carefully began to peel off the scroll. His movements seemed very gentle, which made Qin Yang even more confused.
"Thunder-struck wood, as the name suggests, is wood that has been struck by lightning."
A voice came from the side, it was from the junior sister, which attracted the attention of Qin Yang and others.
It seemed that Junior Sister still couldn't hold it back, and Senior Brother Gu didn't stop her either.
Anyway, now that the Lightning Strike Wood has been obtained, the other party cannot possibly snatch it back, right?
"Of course, not all wood can become lightning-strike wood. After being struck by lightning, most ordinary wood will turn into ashes and cease to exist in the world."
The junior sister was chatting and heard her say: "Only some ancient trees that are more than a thousand years old, and the core of the tree can become a real lightning-strike tree after being struck by lightning."
"Is it so rare for lightning to strike a tree?"
Many people were shocked when they heard what the junior sister said about the process of forming wood struck by lightning, especially the stall owner whose expression was even more astonishing and uncertain.
"Then what is he used for?"
What Qin Yang cares about is not the lightning-struck wood itself. If this is just a piece of wood that has been struck by lightning, how can it be worth tens of thousands?
"Well, I can't just say it casually."
Unexpectedly, the junior sister actually acted so secretly at this time, which made everyone look a little disappointed. Qin Yang also looked at the junior sister with some resentment.
"Hey, didn't you just say that you were going to use the Five Elements Horse Picture to ward off evil spirits in the house? What I want to tell you is that in terms of the effect of warding off evil spirits in the house, the lightning strike wood is hundreds of times more powerful than that piece of broken paper!"
A hint of cunning appeared on the little junior sister's face, and she heard her say: "And I can also tell you that such a long piece of lightning strike wood is worth at least this amount."
The junior sister spoke, then raised her hand and extended a finger, causing everyone to open their mouths wide, and gasps of cold air could be heard from everywhere.
"Ten...one hundred thousand?!"
Because they are all sure that the finger of the junior sister definitely does not point to ten thousand. After all, the price they spent just now has exceeded ten thousand.
"She was only pointing to one, but there were two scrolls!"
Another voice came out, almost causing the stall owner to spit out a mouthful of blood. Is the lightning-struck wood so valuable?
"Big liar, what a big liar!"
The stall owner looked at Senior Brother Gu with eyes that were about to spit out fire, and his lips trembled. If it wasn't inappropriate, he might have roared out the curse in his heart.
"Don't look at me like this. Have you forgotten what I just said?"
At this time, Senior Brother Gu had already taken off two black scrolls, a smile appeared on his face, and then he spoke.
"I said that the Lightning Strike Wood is worthless in your hands. Only in the hands of someone like me can it achieve its greatest value."
Senior Brother Gu's face was very proud, and he said with some emotion: "One hundred thousand and two hundred thousand are just common things. Sometimes with so much money, you can't buy a single lightning strike wood."
It seems that Senior Brother Gu is quite satisfied with his luck this time, which also shows that he is not short of money.
Qin Yang's eyes flickered. Now he was really more and more curious about the purpose of lightning striking the wood.
It's a pity that the other party didn't tell him, so he couldn't break the casserole and ask the truth.
"Brother, this Five Elements Horse Picture belongs to you!"
As expected, Senior Brother Gu didn't mean to explain too much. When he finished speaking, Qin Yang nodded and stretched his hand towards the Five Elements Horse Picture.
"Huh?"
At this moment, Senior Brother Gu, who was just about to put away the Lightning Strike Wood in his hand, suddenly let out a startled cry, and then rushed in front of Qin Yang with a quick stride.
"Brother Gu, what's wrong?"
Qin Yang was also startled by the other party, but he asked the question the next moment.
He is a brave artist and is not afraid of the other party robbing him of his painting. He is just afraid of damaging this treasure.
"Senior Brother Gu..."
Seeing this, the junior sister also frowned. She also thought that her senior brother wanted to take possession of the painting as well.
Senior Brother Gu did not answer Qin Yang's question, nor did he pay attention to Junior Sister. Instead, he bent sideways and looked towards the bottom of the painting.
At the bottom of the Five Elements Horse Picture, there was originally a scroll, but at this time the scroll had been taken away by Brother Gu, leaving only a small hole.
At this moment, Senior Brother Gu was looking at the hole where the scroll was removed, as if there was some unknown secret in it.
"Boss, where did you get this picture of the Five Elements Horse?"
After a while, Senior Brother Gu suddenly took a deep breath, raised his head, and suddenly turned his attention to the stall owner over there and asked.
"What happened to the ones we collected from the countryside?"
The stall owner had nothing to hide about this. At that time, he spent more than two hundred to collect this painting. He felt that this was the only painting in his stall that looked like an ancient painting.
Unexpectedly, in the eyes of some experts, they could see through it at a glance, which made the stall owner a little melancholy. He always felt that this painting was a bit useless.
The painting was finally sold today, but the stall owner was not happy at all.
He just felt that he had made a loss on the sale. The lightning strike wood was worth more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan.
Now that he heard Senior Brother Gu ask this question again, he always had a bad feeling.
Is there any secret in this painting that I haven't discovered yet?
