Versatile Mage: I Awakened Nine Stars
Chapter 30: Money moves people’s hearts
"You hit my hair!"
Bai Tingting pushed Xu Shen away and straightened her messy hair.
"Ahem, I didn't pay attention." Xu Shen scratched his head in embarrassment.
The teleportation point of the mural was really not about martial arts. It actually threw them down from mid-air. The two of them were piled on top of each other, and it took all the strength of the boss to get up.
The new environment seems to be in a house.
The room is only about 40 to 50 square meters in size, with a height of about three meters. The walls, floor, and roof are integrated and crystal clear.
Because the night pearls as big as a man's head are placed in all directions, the light in the room is not dim. The whole house is filled with purple air, making it very dreamy.
This seems to be a woman's dormitory.
Even a rough guy like Xu Shen could see that the house was built with great ingenuity, the furniture and decorations were all elegant and romantic, and the owner of the room should have a high level of aesthetics.
"This is……"
After Xu Shen and Bai Tingting studied for a long time, they discovered that this house seemed to be carved out of a complete piece of crystal.
What a big crystal stone this is!
The two rustics were stunned on the spot.
Crystal has the effect of gathering magic energy. As one of the basic materials for many magic tools to inscribe core formations, its value is not low.
No wonder both of them felt that the stars in the stardust were extremely active, like a cat seeing a mouse, a shark smelling blood, or a licking dog encountering a goddess, feeling hungry, thirsty, and ready to move.
One day of practicing here can probably last for several days outside.
Such a piece of extremely pure natural amethyst is actually only used to build houses...
The luxury of the rich two thousand years ago exceeded the imagination of mere mortals like them.
"This thing can be sold for a lot of money if shipped out."
Xu Shen wished he could transform into a strong man and lift the house away.
Bai Tingting shook her head slightly. She was born in a magic family and was much more knowledgeable than Xu Shen. She had a clearer understanding of the value of this crystal house. Treasures of this level could not only be obtained with money.
"If you guessed correctly, this should be the core of an amethyst mine. The material of this crystal wall is not ordinary amethyst, but the most essence of the veins in the crystal mine."
"The boss is awesome!"
Xu Shen didn't know what to say, just be awesome and be done with it.
Bai Tingting observed very carefully. She walked around and looked at it, and then picked up the jade pieces on the desk.
"Xu Shen, come and take a look. This seems to be the writing of the Wuyue area during the Spring and Autumn Period."
Xu Shen came closer and saw that the seal script was very beautiful, but there was not a word he recognized.
But that's okay.
He took out his mobile phone and clicked on the smart recognition scan.
This APP was developed by a consortium of archaeologists from several universities and covers the identification of hundreds of ancient characters. Since its launch, it has been well received by all types of grave digging enthusiasts.
"Li and Yi Guang scattered their wealth here..."
The mobile phone screen not only has the original text and translation, but also indexes the biographies of the characters.
"So, how did you two get rich?"
Xu Shen's eyes glowed after reading it.
He rubbed his hands and looked forward to it: "Let me see the big treasure left by the ancestor Shang Sheng!"
Following the jade piece's guidance, Xu Shen opened the desk drawer. There was another jade piece inside, and underneath it was a ring.
Xu Shen picked up the jade piece, which was a long article.
"The Sui people started the fire, and Hongmeng was first established. Cangjie created characters, and Tianli ghosts cried. The fuel fire was passed down from generation to generation, and the human race began to grow... However, the war broke out, the old articles were lost, and the inheritance was destroyed. Li did not know what he could do, and compiled the books in the five lakes, maintaining them. May future generations cherish it.”
Xu Shen scratched his head.
The story of Suiren's creation of fire magic was unexpectedly told more than two thousand years ago.
"I'm afraid this is the first treasure Fan Li left us." Bai Tingting rubbed her ring and sighed softly, feeling admiration for the ancients from thousands of years ago.
Inside the ring is a huge library with bamboo slips divided into categories and in good order.
This is a great wealth.
But it is far less shocking than the second treasure.
The jade pieces in the second drawer only have a few words: some common things, bequeathed to future generations.
It's also a ring with a mountain of magic stones inside.
Magic stone is a natural stone bred in a place rich in natural elements such as wind, thunder, earth, and fire. Although it cannot be directly used by magicians, it can be embedded in magic tools as its energy source.
Various home appliances such as mobile phones and computers, as well as large equipment driven by electricity, have their energy source from thunder magic stones.
Thousands of years ago, in an era before the credit currency system was established, magic stones were natural currency.
In Xu Shen's eyes, these mountains of magic stones were like endless money.
There is nothing more shocking than having countless amounts of cash in front of you.
Xu Shen's breathing was rapid and he clenched his ring tightly.
Then, he turned around suddenly and looked at Bai Tingting, murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
Bai Tingting's heart tightened.
Money moves people's hearts.
Human nature is never worth testing.
In this completely sealed world with only the two of them, if Xu Shen had evil intentions, she would never survive.
Must seek self-help!
She thought about using her family background as a threat, but it might only arouse the urge to kill and silence her.
"I don't want any of these treasures." Bai Tingting put the ring on the table and took a few steps back carefully, with a timid and flattering expression on her face.
Xu Shen was silent.
The atmosphere became increasingly tense, and Bai Tingting's face turned pale.
"Let's look at the next one first." Xu Shen took a deep breath and opened the last drawer.
There are not many words on the jade tablet, but it describes a set of soul-sacrifice and weapon-refining magic.
This set of magic was born out of the sword-making experience of Ou Yezi and Ganjiang, and was acquired by Fan Li when he supervised the production of the Yue King's sword for the King of Yue.
Fan Li originally wanted to destroy it, but felt that the technique was neither good nor evil, so he stayed.
There are hundreds of magic tools of different shapes in the ring. Thousands of years have passed, and most of the spiritual soul light has completely dissipated, and few of them are usable anymore.
All the treasures left by Fan Li are here.
Xu Shen put the three rings into his pocket and stared at the shivering Bai Tingting without saying a word.
"Can you please don't kill me..." His voice was weak and trembling.
"Give me a reason to keep you alive."
"I swear, I will never tell anyone what happened today."
"Only the dead can keep secrets."
Xu Shen was silent, thinking about the pros and cons.
Bai Tingting is a child of an aristocratic family. He has known for a long time that although the Bai family's power in the Magic City is not as powerful as the Mu family and the Zhao family, it is more than enough to crush him to death.
If Bai Tingting died here, even if he could find an excuse to say it was a secret killing formation.
However, aristocratic families have always been unreasonable.
Bai Tingting died and was buried with him. There was no need for any other reason.
"You...what are you doing?"
Xu Shen inadvertently raised his eyes and was stunned.
In front of her eyes, a pair of dazzling white super-large white rabbits were about to appear. Bai Tingting was about to cry. She was holding on to her collar with both hands. She could still see the veins on the joints on the back of her hands because of the excessive exertion.
This girl, who already had great ambitions, actually wore a corset.
It's me who underestimated her.
No, what am I thinking!
"You can take pictures, if I tell you...Qingyu..." Bai Tingting's voice sounded like a mosquito. If it weren't for the extremely quiet place, Xu Shen wouldn't be able to hear what she was saying.
"After I go out, I can also share the cultivation resources assigned to me by my family to you..."
The critical moment of life and death aroused Bai Tingting's great desire to survive.
Even though she knew it was humiliating, she had no choice.
She's still young and she doesn't want to die.
