The Three Spirit Stones

After watching the dance for three days, Ah Cai got bored and decided to play pot-to-pot, which is a form of gambling played in a special pot-to-pot game. She bought more than 100 taels of arrows, but the result was hard to describe, as none of her arrows hit the target, which made the owner of the pot-to-pot game very happy.

She held the last arrow in disappointment. Cheng Yu saw that she was unhappy and said, "Cai Bao, come here, I will teach you how to shoot."

He stood behind her, grabbed her little hand, and threw it in.

Someone sang beside him,

"There is a new entry into the pot~"

"Haha, I got it,"

She was so happy that she hugged Cheng Yu's neck and kissed him on the cheek. Cheng Chang beside her didn't even have time to cover his eyes.

As a man, the happiest thing is to be admired by the woman you love.

Cheng Yu was in a good mood and ordered another pot of arrows. He picked up an arrow and threw it, and it hit again. Then...

"Hit the pot in a row,"

"The ears go into the pot,"

"The whole pot,"

"There is an end,"

"Xiao Arrow,"

"Ah~~"

Ah Cai clapped her hands and giggled with joy. Cheng Yu felt as if he saw her innocent face as a child, and his mood became particularly happy!

"Twelve more pots,"

……

The whole place was in an uproar, and everyone gathered around to watch.

Outrageous!

In addition to shooting arrows into the pot, this man could also grab twelve arrows and shoot them into twelve pots at the same time.

People are speculating about who this person is.

Cheng Chang was extremely happy. It turned out that our prince’s skill in pitching pots was so amazing, yet he had never shown off his skills before!

He made a rough calculation and figured that he could win at least a few thousand taels this time, which would finally earn back what the young lady had spent during this period of time.

This boiling scene finally alarmed the big boss behind this tile.

He sent a shopkeeper to invite Cheng Yu. The three of them followed the shopkeeper through an alley, and were then invited into a two-story brick and wood structure building that looked ordinary on the outside but had low-key and luxurious interior decoration.

Going up to the second floor, Cheng Yu asked Cheng Chang to wait outside the door while he and Ah Cai went in.

Inside was a very elegant study room, with a row of bookshelves filled with books and antiques. Behind a mahogany desk inlaid with mother-of-pearl and gold thread sat a wealthy middle-aged man.

He saw Cheng Yu and the other man, looked them up and down, and said with a forced smile, "Prince Cheng, I didn't expect your skills to be so amazing. I was really wrong."

"Um!"

Cheng Yu was a little surprised.

"Your last name is Guan? You figured out my background so quickly?"

"Hahaha!"

Guan Dada laughed proudly and said, "Among all the people in Bianjing, Guan is one of the best when it comes to being well-informed."

"The prince of the Earl's Mansion has been missing for three years and has now returned. If I don't know about this joyous event, how can I survive in Bianjing City?"

He fiddled with the jade pendant in his hand as he spoke.

"Well-informed?"

Cheng Yu murmured, revealing a meaningful smile.

"Master Guan, you are so well-informed, can you help me find someone?"

"Oh? Who is the prince looking for?"

"A Taoist priest appeared in Changping Restaurant eleven years ago and sold me a piece of white stone."

"What's his last name? Which Taoist temple does he practice in?"

"Not sure,"

"What are his height and appearance like?"

"He was about the same height as me, had a few wisps of beard, and his appearance... I don't remember it very clearly. I might have to meet him in person before I could remember it."

"Haha, Master, you have so few clues, how can I find them?"

"Well, I can't do anything about this matter. I asked you to come up here to tell you that it's just a game of pot-tossing. You should stop when you're ahead. I have something important to do. Please go ahead."

After saying this, he picked up the teacup and ordered us to leave.

Cheng Yu was a little unhappy!

His eyes dimmed slightly, and he said, "Master Guan, this person is very important to Cheng, please help me."

"I'm sorry, Guan can't help you,"

Master Guan shook his head coldly.

Cheng Yu was a little angry. If you don't accept my toast, you should drink the wine for punishment, right?

Good! I need to teach you a lesson.

He scratched Ah Cai's nose and said lovingly, "Baby, let me show you a magic trick."

"Uh-huh,"

Ah Cai nodded happily. She knew someone was going to be in trouble.

Cheng Yu smiled slightly, waved his arm towards Guan Dadang, and used a stream of Yuanling Qi in the air to lift him up and pin him against the wall.

Boss Guan was stunned!

He thought he was dreaming, but the force was squeezing his neck and making it harder and harder to breathe. He was like a stranded fish, with his mouth wide open, only able to make a "hmm" sound in his throat.

The force was getting stronger and stronger, and he kept struggling on the wall. Just when his face turned red, his eyeballs bulged, and he was about to suffocate to death, the force suddenly disappeared, and he fell back to the ground.

He breathed in big gulps of precious air, and after catching his breath, he huddled in the corner and looked at Cheng Yu in horror.

Cheng Yu stood up, walked to him and squatted down, pointed his finger at his throat and said with a smile, "Master Guan, this Taoist priest is very important to me, please help me."

Guan Da felt as if his throat was stabbed by a sharp knife.

At this moment, he already knew that the man opposite him was a very scary person, and it would be easy for him to kill him.

He nodded like a chicken pecking at rice while shivering, "Okay, okay, Master, rest assured, Guan will mobilize all his manpower and resources to find someone for you."

"That's right,"

After saying that, Cheng Yu carried him back to the armchair like a chick and patted him on the shoulder, which frightened him so much that his whole body froze!

After a while, Cheng Chang and another shopkeeper who were waiting outside the door saw that Guan Da respectfully invited Cheng Yu and others to come out. He walked to the door and nodded and said, "Don't worry, sir. I will send someone to do what you asked me to do. As soon as there is news, I will send someone to inform you immediately."

Cheng Yu bowed to him politely and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Boss! I will definitely remember your help. We are leaving now, please stay!"

"You are so polite, my Lord! You are so polite!"

The two chatted with each other as if they were close friends.

When leaving, Guan Da Dang asked the shopkeeper to immediately give Cheng Yu the silver he had just won.

Cheng Chang was still a little confused when he saw the 10,000 taels of silver in his hand. He said to Cheng Yu, "Master, did they make a mistake in the calculation? It seems like there are a lot more silver taels!"

Cheng Yu smiled but said nothing.

Ah Cai interrupted and said, "Today is the store's celebration of the 10,000th customer. Win one get three free. We are lucky."

"Oh! Is there such a good thing?"

Cheng Chang said in surprise.

……

After seeing Cheng Yu off, Guan Da returned to his study and closed the door.

Sitting at the desk, he finally managed to hold the teacup steady with his shaking hands. He gulped down the almost cold tea, and only then did he feel a little calmer. Only then did he realize that his back was already covered in sweat.

He regretted very much that he had provoked this evil star just for the sake of momentary pleasure!

Being able to take a person’s life out of thin air is not a human ability, it is the ability of gods and ghosts!

He didn't kill me when I knew his secret because he wanted to use me. If I couldn't do his job well, I would be of no value to him. It would be a simple matter for him to take my life.

He is now in tears and cannot tell anyone.

Guan Da Dangjia is well-informed and knows many talented people and dignitaries. He is also a powerful person who has survived many storms, so he is very sensitive to danger.

He knew very well that Cheng Yu could not be dealt with by using power or money.

He is very polite to people, and he is also very polite when killing people. The only way to save his life is to be obedient!
