When he returned to Baishui city, Yan Li calculated the date and found out that it was already January 28th. He was late by two days.
After asking the shopkeeper, he found out that there were two people looking for him. One was Yu Qiuyu and the other was an old man. They left an address.
He immediately came to the address. It was a grocery store in a deep alley. Although there were a lot of goods, it was still deserted.
"Is the shopkeeper here?"
Not long after he walked in, the curtain of the inner room was lifted, and a beautiful woman came out. She quickly glanced at him, then lowered her head and hurried away. Just as he was feeling puzzled, the curtain was lifted again and a head popped out like a thief. Seeing that it was him, he immediately walked out while cursing, "What are you doing? It's you, brat! Why didn't you say so earlier?
This was an old man in ragged clothes who did not care about his appearance. If word of this got out, no one would believe that this person was actually one of the rare Great Craftsmen of the present age — Great Master Gu Haiyuan.
"It's you, old thing!" Yan Li thought that it was a special contact method of Moulin Rouge. He didn't expect it to be Gu Haiyuan. He was surprised and relieved: "Customer? What customer? "
"Shh!" Gu Haiyuan made a gesture with his fingers, and then he ran out guiltily. He poked his head out of the door for a while to make sure no one was looking, and then he quickly closed the door of the shop. He pulled Yan Li into the room and said, "Let's talk inside."
The two of them came to the inner room, which was even messier than the outside, and casually found a place to sit down. Gu Haiyuan sighed and said, "You don't know how hard life is, kid. I've tried everything to fill my stomach. As a matter of fact, under the cover of the grocery business, I got someone to recommend me to do some private work to earn some expenses. "
"Isn't that a good thing?" Yan Li was stunned: "Why do you have to hide it?"
Gu Haiyuan said angrily: "Baishui city has a rule that craftsmen have to go through the Treasure Pavilion. But guess what, they often replace my excellent works with the shoddy works of our craftsmen. If one day I am labeled as such, I will lose my face. "
Yan Li said: "Even so, can't you sell your 'excellent' works in the Treasure Pavilion?"
"Materials don't cost money." Gu Haiyuan said angrily: "It's all because of you! You even robbed my Qiankun bag! If not, how could I have come to White Water City without preparing any materials? "
Yan Li disapprovingly took out the Qiankun Bag and said, "Here, I'll give it back to you. Don't complain about a Qiankun Bag like an old woman."
Gu Haiyuan's expression softened a little, and he snatched it back. "Brat, at least you have some conscience. You know to leave me some money as compensation. However, you've already made your way to White Water City and are about to become a disciple of the Sword Court. You're really stingy! "
"How much money can a mortal like you use?" Yan Li said helplessly.
"It costs a lot of money to develop relics!" Gu Haiyuan said with a straight face: "And you, have you been studying the art of talisman lately?"
"Old man, you have no idea how many times I almost lost my life …" Yan Li sighed: "I want to but I can't do it."
Gu Haiyuan sighed too. He knew that people were good at something and bad at something. It was too greedy to hope that a person who was good at sword skills was also a genius in drawing talismans.
"Forget it." He waved his hand.
Yan Li suddenly thought of something and said: "Speaking of which, the Magical Dust Lock is not bad. Why is it sold at such a low price?" He took out the jade pot and was shocked to find out that there was a crack on the surface of the jade pot.
"Now you know," Gu Haiyuan said.
"So it's because of the material. Can it be fixed?" Yan Li did not want to give up on the relic.
"I need some time." Gu Haiyuan nodded and took it.
Yan Li took out another item and said: "Old man, do you know how to analyze the Sword Quenching Quartz?" He felt more and more anxious. If he could increase his ability, he would do it.
Gu Haiyuan took it, placed it on his palm, and carefully observed it for a moment. His expression gradually turned solemn, then horrified, and finally solemn. "Boy, how did you get this thing?"
Yan Li thought about it. It was a serious matter, so he said vaguely: "I got it by chance."
Gu Haiyuan smiled and said: "Do you know what it is?"
"Isn't it the Sword Quenching Quartz?" Yan Li was hesitant: "It's the kind that imbues a divine power into a relic."
"Of course it is. If it wasn't, it wouldn't be." Gu Haiyuan was still smiling. "However, it's the one and only peerless treasure in the world. It's even more famous than an immortal instrument."
"What do you mean?" Yan Li was dumbfounded.
Gu Haiyuan said lightly: "First of all, you have to understand what the Sword Quenching Quartz is. Most of its divine powers are condensed from the superpowers of its General-level Meteorite Beast. In other words, it's actually the crystallization of the Meteorite Beast's superpowers. The reason why it's called the Sword Quenching Quartz is because it's similar to the Earth Quartz. Most of its divine powers require swords to bring out its greatest power. "
"This object is naturally the Sword Quenching Quartz, but it's special. It's called the Seed of Origin. After it's been tempered on a sword, it can kill almost anyone."
"Anyone?" Yan Li said in horror.
Gu Haiyuan nodded.
"Then wouldn't the person who gets it be invincible?" Yan Li was a little doubtful.
"After being analyzed, it can only be used once." Gu Haiyuan said lightly: "You should have heard of the last person who fell to the Seed of Origin."
"Oh?" Yan Li said.
"The leader of Lihen Heaven, the previous owner of the Primordial Lost Sound," Gu Haiyuan said.
Seeing that Yan Li wasn't moved, he smiled. "You should be familiar with the last person who fell."
"Oh?" Yan Li said.
"The Sorcerer God of Buluo City," Gu Haiyuan said.
Yan Li finally opened his eyes wide. The overlord of the Sorcerer God Era had died like this.
Since it can kill anyone, then can't it be used for revenge?
Thinking of this, his mind suddenly became active. "Does it mean that as long as there's the Seed of Origin, even a weak scholar can kill anyone?"
Gu Haiyuan rolled his eyes and said unhappily: "Your sword has to touch people. If you can't even touch them, how can you kill them?"
Yan Li heard this and instantly became very excited. Even if Yang Youyun had the Nether Lotus Mother behind her, he still had the confidence to fight her.
But just in case, he still asked carefully: "After it's attached to the sword, can it be controlled at will?"
"Yes," Gu Haiyuan said.
Yan Li was even more surprised and said: "Then quickly help me analyze it."
Gu Haiyuan smiled mysteriously and said: "I can, but I need some time."
"How long?" Yan Li said while rubbing his palms.
