"Toad Arhat seems to feel that he knows everything, and the focus of everything he knows is still on this jade, so he has a plan.

He quietly walked out of the cave and went straight to the market.The place is extremely lively, with buyers and sellers shouting and shouting, and people walking through the narrow and crowded alleys in an endless stream.

People bumping into each other, people crowding people, the people behind urged: "It's all borrowed! It's all borrowed! Get up! Get up! Don't stand still!"

Although the people heard it clearly, they didn't move, but concentrated on choosing what they wanted at each small booth.

Toad walked through the crowd, anxious in his heart, and had no time to care about the items of these small vendors, but wanted to step into the center of the market in one step.

Just because it is more lively and there are more people.

Originated from the dazzling array of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jade and rare new gadgets on the market.

This represents the historical accumulation of the people here, and it is also the best gathering place for this culture and art.

There are many talents here, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, no matter how capable people come here, they will inevitably listen to the explanations of the bugs in this circle.

Toad squeezed through the bustling crowd and came to this antique market, with many facades on both sides.

Each of the antique wooden plaques is majestic, flowing with clouds and flowing water, hearty and dripping, with gorgeous rhetoric.

Running script, cursive script, official script, seal script, and regular script interpret the unique national traditional culture, and every word has a soul.

As the old saying goes, there is no first thing in literature, and no second in martial arts, which is the best interpretation of this situation.

A culturally prosperous street scene where a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred birds contend, Zhenyu Pavilion, Cimo Hall, Yaqu Garden, Lingmu Pavilion, Qishifang, Shanggu Pond, Bihua Academy, Luanyu Shop...the list goes on and on.Unconsciously dazzling, refreshing.

Toad practiced meditation on weekdays and rarely came here to play, but he didn't know that this place was so lively and bustling with people.

It can be seen that ordinary people yearn for and pursue culture. There are many veteran scholars who have studied antiquities in depth, chatting about the world, learning about the past and the present, archaeological and quarrying, and throwing bricks to attract jade.

In particular, he has quite a lot of research on this jade, and he talks eloquently and happily.

This was exactly what he wanted, and since he didn't know anything about it, he listened to it with relish.

However, there are many people who know superficial knowledge in the big antiquities market, but there are quite a few people in the real circle. He listened quietly for a long time, but he was still in the fog and didn't know what to say.

In a fit of anger, he didn't want to listen to it any more, and only visited the jade shop to taste and relax.

His idea is very simple, if he wants to find something that is invulnerable to five poisons from these jade shops, then he can also practice that peerless magic skill, so as to defeat the spirit snake and avenge his master.

You can also snatch the five-poison jade pendant, the favorite thing of little junior sister Jin Zhuzi.

There are indeed many types of jade, but they dazzled him.

The shopkeeper was not hesitating about his words, eloquently explaining to him, "Eminent Monk! Do you want to see jade? This jade can be described as broad and profound!

The four famous jades are also well-known far and wide, Hotan, Lantian, Dushan, and Xiuyan. Among them, Hotan is divided into white jade, suet white jade, green white jade, sapphire, topaz, sugar jade, black jade, and jasper.

Lantian is divided into emerald jade, black jade, colored jade, white marble, topaz and so on.Dushan can be divided into...wait a minute, which one should the eminent monk choose?Or which one of the shops you like, I can tell you in detail. "" Shopkeeper!Is there any jade that can resist poison here? "Arhat Toad asked very curiously.

"Eminent Monk! You're not making fun of me, are you? You must be talking about the famous ancient poisonous stone, right?

This stone is invulnerable to the five poisons, and it can turn bad luck into good luck, and make good luck in death.It is a unique and rare treasure, which has long been lost and never heard of.

Don't say I don't have this small shop, you may not be able to get it if you have traveled all over the Central Plains, the Western Regions, all over the world, and the north and south of the river.

Forgive my blindness, I think you must be an expert in this circle, dedicated to research, hardworking, and have nothing to do now, just looking for some fun with me as a business person, and have no intention of buying.

If this is the case, I have no time to accompany you, you should go to another store to learn skills, so as not to delay the small business of our store!Thank you very much! "The shopkeeper knew it and issued an order to evict customers.

On the contrary, he made Toad confused, inexplicable and confused.

He doesn't know anything about this field.However, from the shopkeeper's words, it can be felt that this poisonous stone is a rare treasure, and it is definitely not something that is easily obtained.

I thought to myself, little junior sister!Junior sister!You have such a unique vision, you are actually very interested in this object, this object is by no means trivial.

After thinking about it, the rarer it is, the more it can reflect the deep affection and friendship for the little junior sister. Thinking about it, the corner of the mouth moved slightly.

The store has countless customers every day, and it is even more unique to observe the words and expressions. It was thought that the eminent monk was playing tricks on him. At this time, the corner of the eminent monk's mouth moved slightly, and he was more convinced that his judgment was correct, so he stopped talking and said goodbye. customers went.

Toad had no choice but to leave silently, and ran to the next store, but saw the four characters "Jin Yu Liang Yuan" engraved in italics on the thick plaque.

good!good!Although the store is not big, the signboard is very suitable for the occasion, so he went inside to enjoy it.

Unlike the previous store, the owner of this store did not talk endlessly.

But it is quietly waiting for customers to inquire, and answering the questions raised by customers in a targeted manner.

But seeing the dazzling array of jade stones on the counter, it is overwhelming. They are white and pure, delicate, smooth and moist, as subtle as cream.

There are also gray and white dotted with black markings, warm and moist, crystal clear, delicate and round.

Rather than looking at it, it is better to say looking for it.The store owner was careful, observing Toad's expression, and saw that he was looking at the jade, not carefully admiring it, but once he passed by, he knew he was looking for it.

So he asked very politely: "Eminent Monk! If I guessed correctly, I must be looking for something? Is there anything I can do to help you?"

"Shopkeeper! Is there any green jade?" Toad asked in a very unprofessional manner.

"Of course there are green jade, jasper, jadeite, chalcedony, green pine, Tianhe, agate, peacock, Dongling, green Dushan, Xiuyu, Guicui, these are all green jade, but I don't know which one the eminent monk wants to know? "The store is very professional. According to the needs of customers, he will tell you everything like a few treasures. His attitude is kind and considerate.

"Shopkeeper! I am very clueless about this jade, I have no impression of the ones you just listed!
I only know that what I am looking for is the poisonous stone.Wearing it can prevent the five poisons from invading!I don't know which piece of jade can be compared with it? "Toad is even more straight to the point, and the ignorant person fearlessly confesses his thoughts.

"So, I know! You seem to be talking about the poisonous stone in ancient times. This thing is invulnerable to all poisons and is a rare treasure! It has been silenced, and there is no way to verify it. If it is convenient for you, you can share the reason with me. Tell me? I can find another way for you to solve this problem."

"I was looking for this thing but I was trapped by love. Although I am a monk, the six senses should be pure and the four elements should be empty, but I fell in love with a beautiful and lovely woman, but I suffered from the pain of lovesickness.

I saw that she took a fancy to the peerless treasure five-poison jade pendant, so I wanted to get it and give it to her, but I didn't know that I couldn't find it in all the jade shops when I came here.But I don't know what to do! "Toad confides his difficulties without any concealment.

"So that's it! The eminent monk is really an infatuated person! I already understand!

Look how good it is!I'll take a piece, and watch it with your eyes! "As he spoke, he took out a piece of dark green jade from the cabinet, which was dull in color, ordinary in texture, very ordinary to the touch, and not at all rare.

The toad is carefully tasted, and the eyes are carefully seen, isn't it?This is the jade used in the five-poison jade pendant, "Shopkeeper! This is exactly the poison stone I was looking for! There is no difference in any trace. Didn't you just say that it is a rare treasure? How do you own this thing?"

The shopkeeper smiled slightly, "This is just ordinary jasper, it is not invulnerable to all poisons, but its appearance is no different from that poisonous stone.

In fact, the ancient poisonous stone was originally jasper, but the substance collected the essence of heaven and earth, and the spirituality of poison-dissolving substances, and naturally formed an antibody that is invulnerable to all poisons, which can be described as a gift from heavenly creation.Therefore, it has become a peerless treasure.

It is a token of love, so you can modify the shape, and I will cut the gold and cut the jade to carve this jade into a device, and you can give this high-quality imitation to her to express your feelings, and she will accept it happily .I don't know what the eminent monk wants? "The shopkeeper spoke eloquently, with a sense of reason, and it was very appropriate. Toad nodded repeatedly.

"This object is a round jade pendant, engraved with a vigorous, suave and free-spirited poisonous character." Toad said, using the store's pen and ink to outline the image of the object and the font.

The store put the jade material on the water stool, and carefully cut and carved it with the Tuo mounted on it.

But see its cutting, consultation, cutting and grinding, first use toothless saw to cut the material, use circular saw to trim, use drill and cone to carve patterns and drill holes, and finally polish and polish in one go.

The shopkeeper's technique is superb, especially the carving of the poisonous character is indistinguishable from that on the five poisonous jade pendant, it is really the best imitation of the real one.

The shopkeeper was very skilled. He put the high-quality imitation jade pendant with a red string and handed it to Toad, "Monk! How do you feel? Do you think it looks like it?"

Toad took it with both hands, couldn't help being overjoyed, and praised again and again: "It's so similar! It's so real! It's incredible!"

On the way back, Toad looked at the high-quality imitation jade pendant in his hand, and felt extremely happy. Now he can finally give this jade pendant to his junior sister!He even imagined the joyful expression on his little junior sister's delicate face if she saw this treasure.

Of course, she would not only look at him with admiration, but would even give him the girl's heart.Think about it and feel happy.

But after thinking about it again, I was quite surprised and scared again and again!With a single mistake, he almost killed his beloved little junior sister.

I remember that day when Prime Minister Bo Yan presented the five-poison jade pendant to the master, he deliberately emphasized the words that this pendant is invulnerable to all poisons. At that time, my junior sister was there, and of course she knew that wearing this jade pendant could cure five poisons. If you don't invade, you can practice the master's peerless magic skill "Cold-Blooded Poison Attack".

However, this is a high imitation jade pendant, a fake. The store has repeatedly emphasized that this pendant does not have the function of being invulnerable to all poisons like the five-poison jade pendant. Divine skills, there is no doubt that death is inevitable.

Besides, this high imitation jade pendant is a fake after all, so how can it reflect the deep friendship I have for my junior sister.

He couldn't tell her about it when he gave it to her. What she likes is the real five-poison jade pendant, so how could he deceive her with a fake one?Toad is caught in extreme contradictions.How should this be done?

Sometimes the power of love is really great, and it can even bring him wisdom. He suddenly remembered this blood feud.It was Ling Snake who killed the master, and he had to pay for it.

What's more, he is still holding the five poisonous jade pendant that his junior sister loves the most.

Toad looked at the high-quality imitation jade pendant in his hand, and thought about the scene of Ling Snake practicing kung fu in the cave, those poisonous things crawled on his body, biting his hair and skin frantically, although he was bleeding profusely, he was safe.Why doesn't he do this, such and such!
