With the help of the Qi Refining Pill and Kun Yuanzi's step-by-step guidance, Yu Fei's skills improved a lot after a period of time. Kun Yuanzi also taught him a move called 'Tai Xuan Jin Feng Palm'. The momentum is fast, the moves are ever-changing, and the palm power does not rely on internal energy, but external energy. Even when one's own vitality is severely damaged, he can still give the opponent a fatal blow, which can just make up for his "Pure Yang Mian" move. The shortcomings of the palm.
It's just that Yu Fei has not yet reached the state of 'unity of popularity', and there are still great limitations in using external energy, so he cannot fully exert the powerful power of the 'Tai Xuan Jin Wind Palm'. Otherwise, maybe he Like Kun Yuanzi, he can kill a giant dragon with one palm.
Yu Fei stayed at home and practiced hard for nearly half a year, and his skills also made great progress. During this period, the people in the ghost realm seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no news at all. Not only did the mysterious black man Yiren has never come to trouble Yu Fei, and even the task force has no clues about the cult organization 'Nine Netherworld Sect', and naturally there is no news about the Xuanming Divine Stone.
Bo Xinwen determined that there was a mole planted by a ghost in the government. In order to find out who it was, he secretly investigated many people, including some provincial and ministerial leaders, and used many methods to set up a trap to trap the mole. The ghost was lured out, but this guy was very cunning. No matter what, he just didn't take the bait.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was already May of 2009. On this day, a rather special customer came to Mr. Ye's jade shop.
Ye Lao's 'Yu Wuyuan' jade shop is located in a remote alley in Hualin Jade Street. There are not many customers on weekdays. In addition, Ye Lao's purpose of opening this shop was not to make money, but just to make money. Meeting friends with jade is a way to pass the boring and lonely time. If something happens, the store will often not be open for the whole day. Therefore, compared with several shops around it, this "Jade No Fate" seems quite deserted.
However, on this day, a young ghost with blond hair and blue eyes (note: ghost refers to a foreigner) stepped into the deserted "Yu Wuyuan". At first, Mr. Ye didn't pay attention. After all, Hua Lin Jade Street can also be regarded as a relatively special attraction in Guangzhou. There are also many ghost guys who come here. From time to time, ghost guys come to the store to take a look, but most of them just see something new. In their eyes , Jade is just a special stone, and you can’t bear to spend a lot of money to buy it.
Mr. Ye ignored the ghost guy and continued to smoke his agarwood pipe, holding an ancient book bound with thread and reading it carefully.
But this ghost guy did not leave after looking at it twice. Instead, he looked at the store very carefully, and from time to time he raised his head to ask Mr. Ye about the price of the jade items on the counter. To Mr. Ye's surprise, he He can actually speak fluent Chinese, and he seems to have a very good understanding of Chinese jade culture, and he is also quite knowledgeable about jade. His knowledge of Chinese ancient nephrite is not even inferior to that of Mr. Ye. This can't help but make Mr. Ye look at him with admiration. It's really rare for a ghost guy to have such an expert vision.
Mr. Ye put down the ancient book in his hand and started chatting with the young ghost.
The ghost guy’s name is John, and he comes from the United States. According to him, he is one-quarter Chinese. His grandmother is a typical Chinese woman. During the Anti-Japanese War, his grandfather came to China to help The Chinese government was fighting against the Japanese fascists, and later he met his grandmother, fell in love and got married. After liberation, his grandfather took his grandmother back to the United States.
Although John was born in the United States, due to the influence of his grandmother, he has been very fond of ancient Chinese culture since he was a child, and he has extensive research experience in Chinese nephrite.
Most of the items on the counter in Ye Lao's shop were Burmese jadeite, and there were not many Chinese nephrite jade. Seeing that John was so interested in Chinese nephrite and was good at it, Ye Lao walked into the shop and took out a few pieces of Hetian jade. The finest mutton fat jade.
John's eyes suddenly widened. He quickly took out the magnifying glass and looked at it carefully. After a while, John put down the magnifying glass, held an oval piece of mutton-fat jade carved into the shape of a swaddled baby, and asked Mr. Ye : "Old sir, how much do you plan to buy this piece of jade?"
Mr. Ye took the jade in John's hand and smiled slightly: "These things are priceless treasures to me. To be honest, I have no intention of selling them."
An expression of disappointment immediately appeared on John's face. He spread his hands helplessly and said: "Although gold is valuable and jade is priceless, the old gentleman runs a store after all. The things in the store are commodities, and the commodities should have prices."
"Haha, the products in the store are all displayed in the cupboard. I just took these things out for you to watch. I really can't sell them. Please forgive me, please forgive me," Mr. Ye said, and he was going to put those things away. Put away the piece of mutton-fat jade.
At this time, John suddenly waved his hand and said: "Wait a minute, since the old gentleman refuses to sell, how about I exchange it with you for another piece of jade?"
"Oh, so Mr. John also brought treasures," Mr. Ye was a little curious as to what kind of fine jade this foreign connoisseur would bring out.
"The quality of my thing may not be as good as the treasures in the old gentleman's hands, but it is very, very special. I think the old gentleman will definitely like it," John said as he took out a small wooden box.
Opening the wooden box, what was inside was a round jade tablet. Judging from the smoothness of this jade tablet, it should be considered a top-grade piece, but its uniqueness does not lie in its texture. , but its color is actually half pure white and the other half pure black.
Hotan jade comes in various colors such as white jade, sapphire, topaz, red jade and black jade. Pure white and pure black are relatively rare, and this combination of half pure white and half pure black is not popular even for experts like Mr. Ye. First time seeing it.
Mr. Ye was very surprised. He took a magnifying glass and looked carefully. The color was really natural. When he put it under the light and looked at it, he vaguely seemed to see a Bagua pattern.
Ye Lao secretly used his spiritual sense to explore again, and found that there seemed to be an undetectable barrier set up in this jade stone. His intuition told Ye Lao that this jade stone was by no means an ordinary thing. Thinking back to the original, Yu Fei's red flame There is an undetectable barrier in the ice crystal pendant, and within the barrier, the beast soul of the red flame beast is sealed. Maybe there is something strange sealed in this piece of jade.
Mr. Ye asked calmly: "Mr. John, where did you get this piece of jade?"
