The monk of the way of beauty

Chapter 41 The Cursed Gem

"Hello, my name is Ling Xiao." Ling Xiao nodded slightly to the blonde girl, and said with a smile, "I'm a beautician, maybe."

Holly Robinson, who was wearing a dark blue lady's suit and had a sharp face, asked with some confusion: "What does it mean?"

"Yeah!" Ling Xiao pondered for a while, and then explained in a low voice: "I am different from ordinary beauticians, but if you want to look younger and more beautiful, you are absolutely right to find me. The previous Mikaela Baines is my client."

"Oh!" Hearing what Ling Xiao said, Holly Robinson showed a special look in her eyes. If Julia took away today's diamond exhibition, then among the female models, Mikay La Baines is the most beautiful one.

"Can you tell me more specifically?" Holly Robinson asked immediately.

"This..." Ling Xiao glanced at the crowd around him, and said helplessly: "I use some methods like massage, acupuncture and medicine to help women maintain their youthful beauty. This is my job. As for more specific, We can contact you privately after the exhibition is over."

With that said, Ling Xiao took out a business card from his body and handed it to Holly Robinson.After Holly took it, she glanced at it twice, then looked at Ling Xiao with great interest and said, "So you are a Chinese medicine doctor, it seems that I have to find some time to try the medical methods from the mysterious ancient country in the East gone."

"Yeah, if you are really interested, we can have a good chat in private." Ling Xiao looked at Holly Robinson carefully, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Girl, I think you should return this year If you are less than 23 years old, you should not be so anxious about these things."

"Anyway, I should give it a try." Holly Robinson's performance exceeded the interest that ordinary people should have. Maybe women are like this when they mention this aspect, but this Holly Robinson's body Vitality beyond what the average person should be interested in.

"Hey, Ling, did you see, that person is Scott West!" Suddenly, Holly Robinson pointed to a middle-aged man who was talking with someone not far away, and Ling Xiao followed her gaze Looking over, a muscular, gentle man with glasses came into Ling Xiao's sight.

"Huh?" Ling Xiao frowned suddenly. Although Scott West had been standing there with his back to the two of them, Ling Xiao could still clearly see that he and Holly were looking at each other. When he was on the body, the opponent's shoulders couldn't help shaking slightly, obviously sensing the gaze of the two of them.

It's really interesting, how come I always meet these people with special abilities tonight, it seems that this jewelry exhibition has a hidden secret!

"What's the matter, what's the problem?" Although Ling Xiao's movements were slight, Holly Robinson, who was close at hand and had been talking to him, still noticed a slight strangeness, and looked at Ling Xiao with some amusement.

"It's nothing." Ling Xiao smiled softly, looked at Holly Robinson and said, "Can you tell me the specific deeds of that Scott West?"

"I don't know the specifics very well," Holly Robinson glanced at Scott West, and whispered to Ling Xiao: "West was born in the "Diamond Hunter" family, his grandfather and His father is a diamond merchant, and he is the owner of the LJ West Diamond Company in New York, which has a 40-year history of diamond trading. This time, a private diamond merchant was invited, which also created a precedent for dealers to be invited to display collections in museums. So this time he is really He took out two good things!"

When it comes to good stuff, Holly Robinson has a look of extra interest on her face.Seeing this scene, Ling Xiao's heart moved slightly. He vaguely guessed something, but he couldn't be too sure. After all, women's interest in jewelry is always beyond the ordinary.

Diamond hunters, as the name suggests, use various means to hunt diamonds. Compared with formal diamond companies, those diamond hunters are very unscrupulous in the process of hunting diamonds, and many methods cannot be brought to the table.

Strictly speaking, each of those diamond hunters is full of crimes and bloody hands.

Thinking of this, Ling Xiao suddenly felt that the mountain was about to come, and suddenly there were two, no, three, or even more.Ling Xiao looked around, he didn't know how many people in the scene had a special interest in those jewels, and were willing to use any means to snatch them.

"By the way, Ling, do you know what the last mysterious jewel is?" Holly Robinson suddenly asked Ling Xiao.

"I don't know about this, but I think it can be used as the last exhibition item. The value of this gemstone should exceed the value of the four just now." Ling Xiao pondered for a while, and continued: "Gemstones of this level are widely distributed throughout the world. From the perspective of the world, all should be limited, and I don’t know which one was borrowed for the exhibition.”

"All the jewelry displayed in this exhibition should be on sale, but I don't know if the last one is the same." Holly Robinson said with some excitement: "If that is the case, then this time The jewelry exhibition is really interesting!"

Ling Xiao smiled softly, looked at Holly Robinson with glowing eyes and couldn't help shaking her head slightly, woman!

At this moment, the heavy curtains on the four windows were suddenly pulled up, and the entire exhibition hall suddenly became dark.All the people present have experienced several jewelry exhibitions, so they naturally understand what this scene means, and everyone is looking forward to it with great interest.

At this time, in the center of the booth, a glass counter suddenly rose slowly. As it slowly rose above the ground, a clear blue light radiated from the glass cabinet to all directions, and everyone present All eyes were drawn to it.

Immediately afterwards, a huge purple sapphire appeared in front of everyone. It was inlaid on a silver ring with words and astrological symbols painted on the surface.

As more details appeared before everyone's eyes, most of the people present couldn't help exclaiming, because this purple sapphire is so famous.

"How did this thing appear here? How could the British borrow it." Holly Robinson leaned in front of Ling Xiao and said in surprise. When she said this, her eyes were fixed on Ling Xiao. on the sapphire.

Before Ling Xiao could speak, he saw a staff member walking up to the glass counter in the center of the exhibition hall, and introduced to everyone: "Guests, as you have seen and known, this gem is the famous Delhi purple. Sapphire, her rarity, her beauty, and her legendary color make her occupy an extremely important position in the history of world jewelry! This time, Mr. Scott West specially bought this gem from the British Museum of Natural History It was specially borrowed for this exhibition, of course, if you are interested, you can also try to contact the British Museum of Natural History.”

As soon as the staff finished speaking, everyone present could not help but chuckle, who would dare to own such a gem.

Yes, who would dare to own such a famous cursed gem, Ling Xiao couldn't help but sigh slightly.

The Delhi Violet Sapphire, a rare Indian gem held in the Natural History Museum in England, has been locked in a museum cabinet for 60 years because it is said to carry a "curse" and its multiple owners There have been many disasters, even sudden disasters.

The Delhi purple sapphire was plundered by soldiers during the Mutiny in India 150 years ago and brought to England by a cavalry colonel.

However, when the new owner of the gem, Phyllis, came to England, he encountered a series of bad luck. Not only did he lose all his money, but he was also plagued by many diseases.The same fate befell Phyllis' son when he inherited the jewel.A family friend of Phyllis borrowed the gem to play with for a few days before he killed himself.

The priceless "Delhi Purple Sapphire" became a symbol of disaster, and rumors spread that it was "cursed" and that anyone who owned it would suffer bad luck.
