041 Pinch into a bird

"It turned out to be a magic refining technique from Saint Tomb?"

Everyone present showed surprise.

On the market, it is rare to practice spiritual power, let alone come from the tomb of a saint.

Gu Bai suddenly felt excited and asked, "Boss Lin, how valuable is this thing?"

Lin Xiaotian laughed and said:

"Everyone is my own, and I don't talk nonsense."

"That is indeed a magic refining technique, but it was not unearthed from the Saint Mausoleum. There is no way to prove it. If the seller said this, we will naturally use it as a gimmick."

"As for the value, after we appraised, the starting price was 100,000 taels of silver."

Long Kaijiang pondered for a moment and added: "This thing is too attractive to those formation masters and alchemists. Even if it is a broken piece, the final transaction price will probably be extremely terrifying."

"Indeed, it's not surprising that it's lifting to hundreds of thousands of taels." Lin Xiaotian nodded.

Hearing this terrifying price, Gu Bai couldn't help but gasp between his teeth, and it hurt a little.

"What, Mr. Gu is interested?" Lin Xiaotian asked with a smile.

Gu Bai smiled bitterly: "I am indeed interested in the magic refining technique, but my wallet can't stand it."

Everyone was a little surprised.

Long Kaijiang patted his shoulder: "Gu Bai, if you really want it, I can pay you two years of salary in advance and then lend you 50,000 taels in your private name."

Luo Zhen, who was standing beside him, also said: "Although I am not rich, I can still take out 10,000 or 20,000 taels. If you need it, just take it."

After these two people made their speeches, the other generals expressed their willingness to help, after all, it was a matter of face.

Gu Bai sincerely thanked everyone, but did not take advantage of them directly. He just said that there was really a need at that time, so he would speak up to you again.

...

After the banquet, Gu Bai stayed alone and discussed with Lin Xiaotian about entrusting the auction of the sandworm mother Huang Ao Pliers.

The pair of claws behind the insect are very rare demon materials and can be used to refine and cast high-quality weapons.

According to Lin Xiaotian's estimate, the real value of this pair of acets is about 50,000 taels. After the agreement between the two sides, the final starting price is set at 35,000.

"Boss Lin, I actually have something to sell."

Gu Bai took out a pre-prepared silk and satin, and after spreading it out, he revealed a round and jade-like elixir of vitality.

"This is……"

"This thing is the best healing pill I got by chance. I won't elaborate on the effect. Boss Lin can find someone to identify it. It's not too late to give me a quote at that time."

"oh?"

Lin Xiaotian became interested, picked up the angry pill and looked at it carefully for a while, and asked, "I wonder how many such pills Gu Zongqi has?"

"Fifteen."

"Okay, I can give you an answer tomorrow at the latest."

...

Tonight coincides with the first day of the New Year.

After leaving the Star Gazing Tower, Gu Bai did not return to the Demon Suppression Department directly, but ran to the black market and purchased another puppet material.

The more than 30,000 taels of resources obtained from plundering the Qi family's resources has now been considered exhausted.

The next morning, the Demon Suppression Company issued an edict, officially announcing to the outside world that Gu Bai took office as the chief banner officer of the Demon Suppression Company.

This incident caused a lot of sensation in Sun and Moon City, and even attracted the attention of Wang Qi and the two major families.

The Demon Suppressing Department has a new general flag every year. This is not surprising. What is strange is that this person is so young, which is unprecedented.

Qi Mansion.

In the lobby of carved beams and painted buildings, Qi Huan sat in front of the desk, savoring the teacup in his hand expressionlessly.

His face was covered with scars from burns. When he spoke, the scars twisted, making him a little hideous and terrifying.

"What is the background of that new general flag?"

A manager beside him bowed slightly and said respectfully: "Return to the second young master, the man's name is Gu Bai. According to our eyewitness in the Demon Suppression Department, this man was born in Kuxia Town and was originally a refugee, but he was talented and had several outstanding performances..."

The manager briefly described Gu Bai's resume, but the more Qi Huan heard it, the more gloomy the eyes became.

"So, the demon-exorcist clock that Qi Xiong kidnapped at that time was brought back by this man?"

Qi Xiong tapped his fingers on the armrests of the table and chairs, squinting his eyes like a poisonous snake.

He did not investigate this matter at the beginning, but now he connects it and feels very strange.

Even if an ordinary refugee is extremely talented, how can he reach this point in such a short time?

Could it be that this person intercepted Qi Xiong?

But the mysterious man who sold resources on the black market and attacked Qi Daxu was also in the Yang Ling Realm's cultivation level, and the time point was not up to par.

And according to everything Qi Daxu described, that person was probably from the Wang family.

"Check! Check Gu Bai's background for me!" Qi Huan's voice was cold, "Also, send some people to sweep the two places on the Wang family on Liuye Street, and clean up your hands and feet."

In recent times, the conflict between the Qi family and the Wang family has gradually heated up, and both sides have taken secret tricks. Although it has not yet been put into the open, Liangzi has formed a forged.

Recalling the scene when the fire burned in his body, Qi Huan suddenly felt angry in his heart.

Qi Xiong was intercepted and all resources were robbed.

He was attacked in front of his home and was burned beyond recognition.

Many celebrities stationed in the black market were even left alone.

Behind all this, there is the figure of the Wang family.

"Wang family... you wait and wait until my elder brother returns from Taiyuan Sect. At that time, let you and the Demon Suppressing Department be buried with you!"

Qi Huan said this with a harsh look, and with a bang, he pinched the teacup in his hand into powder.

...

"Master Gu Qi, this is my grandfather, and he is the top craftsman in our Zhoufu Forging Equipment Factory."

In the courtyard, Cheng Hai led a sloppy old man in coarse linen and introduced enthusiastically.

"Hello, Mr. Cheng, take your seat quickly."

Gu Bai greeted him, sat at the stone pier table, and brewed a cup of tea for the old man.

"Those two of you are chatting slowly. I still have something to do, so I will leave first."

After taking a break, Cheng Hai left the yard first.

Gu Bai and the sloppy old man sat opposite each other.

The old man was a bachelor, without saying a little nonsense, and went straight to the topic: "Mr. Gu doesn't have to be polite, I'll just work, where is the thing?"

"I don't have any other hobbies. I usually like to burn some models, but my skills are really bad."

Gu Bai laughed and pointed to a pile of clay under the eaves: "This time I asked Mr. Cheng to come here, just to ask you to help me shape the things and pinch those things into a bird."

"What?" Old Man Cheng widened his eyes.

...

His great craftsmanship was a master of craftsmanship, and his forgings were either a bronze bell that was so powerful that he could use his magic to drive away the demons or an exquisite and strong weapon. He never used a big bird to play with mud.

If Gu Bai hadn't given a lot of money, Old Cheng would have quit.

“Add a claw in this place.”

Lao Chengtou was furious: "What bird has three legs?"
