Chapter 32 The Temple of War Demons
Gao Feng's eyesight is far beyond ordinary people. Although he is sitting in the corner of the shop, he can also see clearly the goods being tasted and bought on other tables.
There are jewelry composed of gold, silver, jade and various colored gemstones, as well as various finely carved ornaments and playthings. They are all exquisite and luxurious. These things are exactly what a jewelry store should have, but there are also some inconspicuous goods. This kind of goods is not only
It is inconspicuous and even incongruous with this wealthy atmosphere, such as stones, medicinal materials, and even some tattered and mottled leather, wood chips, etc.
Gao Feng paid more attention to these uncoordinated goods. There were two tables with such things. In the place opposite him, the customers were different from the wealthy people in the store, but they were wearing robes.
Taoist priests and monks.
"Our store also sells various materials used in Taoism, and Taoist masters often come to support us."
Seeing Gao Feng's attention, Shopkeeper Zhang explained with a smile. Gao Feng nodded. The items and raw materials used in cultivating Taoism are not ordinary items. The prices are no less than gold, silver and jade, and the profits are also huge. Put them here.
The occasion was quite suitable. Seeing Gao Feng's interested look, Shopkeeper Zhang said again:
"If your Excellency is interested in this, you can go to the inner courtyard of our store and have a look. There are also elixirs and precious phantoms sold there. You must know the relationship between our store and the Taoist Temple, and the reputation in the capital is not to mention fake and inferior goods.
There won’t be any.”
Shopkeeper Zhang showed his businessman nature and started promoting to Gao Feng. It was said that the demon-suppressing captains had to deal with demons and evil spirits. Although they were warriors, they were related to Taoism and magical powers, so most of the demon-suppressing captains had treasures.
Or it could be a magical weapon, no wonder Shopkeeper Zhang said this.
"Thank you shopkeeper for your kindness, I won't use it for the time being!"
Gao Feng smiled bitterly and refused. What was the price of the precious phantoms and elixirs? They were far more expensive than gold, silver and jewelry. How could a poor man like himself afford them? He had heard that General Gao Tianhe of the Forbidden Army had bought a garrison stone as a gift.
Yan Dan, the effect of that elixir is just to keep your appearance for three years. This kind of Yan Dan is an ordinary magical item, nothing like it, but it costs three thousand taels of silver, not to mention other elixirs and treasures.
With my salary, I don’t even think about it.
And to put it more philistinely, Yongji Jewelry Store would not give him such an expensive thing. Although he is an official, Yongji's background is not bad, so there is no need to care too much about himself, so he should not look for trouble.
Being able to invite myself in for tea and see the scenery of this jewelry store is already a good feeling for Gao Feng. He doesn't expect anything extra. He can feel the other party's goodwill and take a leisurely look and listen in the store.
His eyesight and hearing were extraordinary. Even if he didn't mean it, the conversations of people in the store kept pouring into his ears. Gao Feng had gradually become accustomed to this state and didn't particularly care.
"... Mr. Hou, this short sword comes from Yanshan. It is said to be a relic of the War Demon Temple..."
"War Demon Temple"...haven't you seen this name on the mountain? It was on the stone tablet on the roadside in the second section of the mountain. When I saw it on the mountain, Gao Feng had never heard of this name.
I didn't care, but I didn't expect to hear it in this jewelry store, what exactly is that mountain, where is it, and what is the War Demon Temple...
Gao Feng was frightened and turned his head to look at the table. The table was very close to where Gao Feng was sitting. The waiter was standing beside the table. There was a young man sitting at the table, holding a hand carefully.
Watch the dagger.
The dagger has a simple style and no decoration. The blade is not very sharp and has no flash. It is iron-colored and only occasionally flashes at the blade. Gao Feng understands this. This so-called "hidden edge"
”, but it is an extremely sharp performance.
Shopkeeper Zhang naturally noticed the direction of Gao Feng's attention. He looked over, smiled, walked closer, and whispered:
"Master Gao is interested in such weapons?"
Gao Feng suppressed the surprise in his heart and asked calmly:
"Excuse me, shopkeeper, what is the origin of this War Demon Temple? Why have I never heard of it?"
The tables were so close that it wasn't unusual to hear the waiters talking. Shopkeeper Zhang didn't find it strange. When Gao Feng asked, he explained with a smile:
"I'm going to show off my knowledge to Mr. Gao. I believe you know that people say that the demons are under the Nine Netherworld and are fighting endlessly all day long. Those who are tempered by fighting with blood and fire will naturally be proficient in martial arts and unparalleled in battle. It is said that the demons are among the demons.
The one who is best at fighting is the War Demon. I don’t know when, but warriors in the world began to worship this War Demon. Naturally, there was the War Demon Temple. It is said that those who believe in this War Demon not only have great advancement in martial arts, but also have various aids to victory.
It is magical, and since the war demons are unparalleled in combat, they are also very good at making armor and weapons. Therefore, there is also a category of people who believe in war demons who are weapon craftsmen, and the armors and weapons they make are of the highest quality...
.”
"Where is the War Demon Temple now?"
Gao Feng couldn't help but interrupt the shopkeeper. Shopkeeper Zhang smiled and said again:
"It's gone a long time ago. This was a mistake years ago. Someone discovered a ruins deep in Yanshan Mountain. Weapons and armor were found in the ruins. Only then did they know about the War Demon Temple. Later, after searching through the classics, I found out that in this ruins
Three hundred years before the founding of the Dynasty, there was no trace of the War Demon Temple, and the warriors who believed in the War Demon also disappeared. The armors and weapons excavated from the ruins were all extremely extraordinary artifacts, and this slowly spread.
, many weapon workshops are imitations, and some who are scheming even set up a workshop in Yanshan, and after making it, they said it was dug out."
Having said this, Shopkeeper Zhang lowered his voice and said with a smile:
"Didn't your Excellency hear the waiter at the table say 'It is said to be'? Mr. Hou also knew it in his heart. Everyone went back to show off, so having an origin of 'It is said to be' is enough."
This is the business story. Gao Feng and Zhang Zhang looked at each other and smiled.
After hearing the ins and outs of the War Demon Temple, Gao Feng no longer wanted to drink tea. He thanked the shopkeeper and said that he still had errands to attend to, so Gao Feng took his leave.
When he walked out of the door, there was some chaos on the street. A closer look revealed that the police were running around, some arresting people, and some chasing people away. Gao Feng could clearly see that these Zhongjing Prefecture policemen were catching and chasing people.
It is those who commit crimes, some are thieves, some are liars, and all kinds of others.
I didn't expect that I, with my "excellent reputation for evil", would actually frighten these lazy agents into this state, and told them to clean them up, which I started to do.
It's not a bad thing. After tidying up this time, Shima Street will be much cleaner. Gao Feng showed a smile on his face and walked slowly down the steps in front of Yongji Store.
On the street, I saw the police officers busy everywhere, but the good people did not panic and even clapped their hands. This situation was really rare. The police officers were all sweating profusely and they were in a bad mood. They often became angry when they saw someone blocking the road.
After a few scoldings, by chance, Gao Feng walked out and happened to be standing in front of a police officer.
"Those who don't have long eyes, get out..."
