Chapter 0074
Boss Tang, who was used to big scenes, was holding the "treasure" in his hands and was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Mr. Gu took the opportunity to wink at the old Taoist priest in front of the door and said: "Taoist Priest, we want to discuss something with you... We accidentally found this gourd bottle. This old man of mine is very happy."
If you like it, see if you can sell it to us. The price is negotiable..."
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, you must not use it. This is the magic weapon used by the Patriarch to make elixirs. It has a history of hundreds of years. I can't give it to you... If the Patriarch finds out, he will blame you..."
The old Taoist priest shook his head like a rattle and sternly rejected the transaction. No matter how Mr. Gu and Boss Tang increased the price or increased the temptation, they just refused to sell the gourd bottle.
During the discussion, the old Taoist priest claimed to be the abbot of Zhongli Taoist Temple. He also said that two years ago, someone offered 2 million to take away the gourd bottle, but he did not agree. Now he cannot break the rules of the Taoist temple.
Mr. Gu pretended to pull Boss Tang aside and discussed countermeasures in a low voice. He told Boss Tang that there was no possibility of picking up the leak at a low price today. If he didn't work hard, he would miss this treasure in the future. In addition,
, once this thing is put on the market, it will have an auction hammer price of tens of millions!
"Taoist Master, I will give you 3 million. In addition, I will pay to renovate your Taoist temple. What do you think?..."
After listening to the advice of his "good friend", Boss Tang gritted his teeth and shouted out a high price of 3 million. He was also willing to invest additional money to repair the dilapidated Zhongli Taoist Temple, hoping to emotionally impress the abbot.
After hearing this, the veteran host secretly exchanged glances with Mr. Gu on the side. After getting the hint, he was ready to say a few more polite words, then agreed and completed the transaction smoothly.
Just as the old Taoist opened his mouth to speak, he heard a strange voice in the room: "Oh, is this the legendary "Gourd Vase with Five-Colored Blessings and Longevity Patterns and Immortals' Birthday Blessings"? This is an important royal weapon. I want it.
5000000."
The old abbot took a closer look and saw that there were two more young men and women in this shabby tile-roofed house. The man was about twenty-six or seven years old. After he came in, he walked over to the colorful gourd bottle, unexpectedly.
He snatched the piece of porcelain.
The old Taoist thought that this was a temporary arrangement arranged by Mr. Gu to deliberately raise the price. He didn't care. He chanted the Taoist holy name in a deep voice and continued to play his role as the abbot of the Taoist temple.
The boss surnamed Tang was anxious. The deal that was about to succeed and the "treasure" that was about to be obtained was disturbed by two young men who came out of the way.
"I'll offer 5.5 million." Boss Tang didn't want to give up, so he had no choice but to add another 500,000.
Mr. Gu, who had been hiding nearby and secretly rejoicing, suddenly changed color when he saw the scam was successful. He took a step back and stared cautiously at the two young people who emerged from the ground, his eyes twinkling.
, he was suspicious and unsure about the origins of this young man and woman who suddenly appeared.
"Hehe, I'll offer 6 million. It seems like this was the price we sold last time!"
The young man confidently quoted a high price again, but the second half of his sentence sounded like a bolt from the blue to Mr. Gu's ears, frightening him out of his wits.
Mr. Gu stumbled and almost fell.
What does the last sentence of this young man mean? Is it a coincidence? Or does he know that he has defrauded others of 6 million using the same method?
Looking at this small tile-roofed house, I don't know when three more tall men with stern faces appeared. The three men formed a Zigzag shape and surrounded him.
When the guy surnamed Gu saw this posture, he secretly thought it was not good.
Suddenly two young people appeared to participate in the quotation, and he felt something was wrong.
The three strong men who have barged in now are most likely policemen lurking outside. The trap they have worked so hard to set up has been leaked, and they must escape quickly.
Thinking of this, he shouted to Boss Tang next to him: "Brother, these people must be in a group. They are eyeing your money. Run away from here...leave me alone..."
As he spoke, Mr. Gu "kindly" pushed Boss Tang next to him towards the door. Boss Tang's back was forceful and he couldn't stand firm, so he fell towards a policeman blocking the door. The policeman at the door
Knowing that Boss Tang was also a victim, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to steady him.
Mr. Gu took advantage of this opportunity, bent down and jumped out.
The young people who were messing around in the room just now and participating in the bidding were naturally Fang Feiyang and Su Yazhi. When Fang Feiyang saw that the liar had chosen to escape at the critical moment, he quickly chased after him.
When passing by Boss Tang, he handed him the high imitation colorful gourd bottle in his hand and shouted: "I gave it to you, don't trust others too much next time..."
"
Fang Feiyang, Su Yazhi and two police officers quickly chased away, leaving only the frightened Boss Tang guarding his "treasure gourd bottle", thinking that someone was really going to rob him. At this moment, he,
I still don’t understand what the young man said when he rushed out just now.
Mr. Gu, who rushed out of the encirclement, was quite agile. He spotted a half-collapsed wall due north of the Taoist temple. Holding back his strength, he jumped over it with a running start.
Fang Feiyang was now considered a martial arts practitioner. He chased after Mr. Gu and was not to be outdone. He kicked off the ground with both feet and easily climbed over the dilapidated wall.
After climbing over this wall, you will reach the outside of Zhongli Taoist Temple.
As soon as Fang Feiyang landed on the ground, he looked around.
"Holy crap, where's the person?...Does this guy know how to fly?"
Fang Feiyang stood up straight and quickly looked around, only to see that there was no trace of Mr. Gu outside the wall. This was a semi-arc area, and beyond that there was a cliff and an abyss.
There is only one laurel tree over three meters high on this semi-arc section. The ground under the tree looks very rough and covered with gravel. There is an open-air stone table near the trunk, which looks like
Made of granite, the circular countertop has been cracked and collapsed in half, and the stone pier under the countertop is also a little tilted.
Another 10 meters ahead is a cliff with no way to go.
"Isn't this guy like in the movies, hanging on the cliff with his hands to avoid tracking and searching..."
Fang Feiyang said to himself, bent down, crouched, and put his head to the edge of the cliff 10 meters away to check and confirm.
He looked down along the edge of the cliff. There were only a few sparse dwarf pines and cypresses on the half-way cliff that was as steep as a wall. The rest were the roughness and coldness brought to him by the mountain peaks. There were lush green trees down the valley.
Unfortunately, it was only a dozen feet away.
"Did this guy jump off a cliff to escape?... Impossible! He thought he was the protagonist of a martial arts novel? He risked his life and survived, but in the end, there were also adventures..."
Fang Feiyang would not believe that this guy was so "brave" that he jumped off a cliff to survive. There must be other ways out here, or he could hide in a dark place somewhere.
At this moment, it is almost six o'clock in the afternoon. The sun in the west has already reached the top of the mountain. The afterglow of the setting sun has dyed the white clouds into pink and the green mountains here into golden yellow.
Just as the red sun was setting in the west, a flickering golden spot shone on the broken stone table under the laurel tree.
