Chapter 185: Chapter 185: Plucking Leaves and Fluttering Petals Can Kill
Spirit Talismans are quite expensive, just look at the auction that just ended!
A single talisman from the Hengshan layman sold for three million.
If this pile of Spirit Talismans is real, what is this if not paper? This is a pile of gold!
Bai Chuwei walked with her hands behind her back, as leisurely as if strolling through her own home.
Bai Chuwei sauntered to the middle of the hall and said calmly, “I will give you the talisman, but I won’t give you the money for the Snow Lotus and jade.”
The auction house owner, Li Sheng, quickly picked up the large stack of Spirit Talismans, with cinnabar characters on yellow paper that he couldn’t understand, and although they were different from the Hengshan layman’s talismans, the characters were more complex.
Lack of understanding filled Li Sheng’s eyes. Could these really just be scribbles?
How is he to know whether these are real or fake?
And who has so many talismans, like a stack of draft papers?
A fierce light flashed in Li Sheng’s eyes. When the surrounding bodyguards saw this look in their boss’s eyes, they tensed up.
The next second, everyone’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!
Bai Chuwei took out the piece of jade and began to fiddle with it in her hand.
Yellow Hair, one of Li Sheng’s underlings, had his legs go weak, and he stammered, “Boss, the jade was in a glass cabinet!”
The glass cabinet was locked; how did this young lady get the jade out?
Could it be… haunted?
Li Sheng, too, felt a tingling on his scalp and glanced at the floor. There was Bai Chuwei’s shadow, and he immediately scolded, “Fool, there are no ghosts in this world!”
As Bai Chuwei toyed with the jade, she nodded and replied, “Yeah, Little Yellow Hair, don’t talk nonsense, there are indeed no ghosts in this world.”
It must be said that the main character Tong Qingyan’s taste is truly excellent; whether in terms of appearance or quality, the jade is top-notch.
Qi Mo spent one million five hundred thousand to buy it, which was worth it.
Groups of bodyguards nervously pounded their chests, bracing themselves as they surrounded Bai Chuwei.
She, holding the piece of jade, sat down on the soft leather sofa and looked around, “No knife?”
Li Sheng now dared not act tough in front of Bai Chuwei.
Keeping a distance of three meters from Bai Chuwei, Li Sheng watched her nervously, “Miss… Miss, what exactly are you trying to do? Are you buying the jade?”
Bai Chuwei glanced at Li Sheng with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, “Don’t be nervous, Boss Li. I’m just buying the jade to carve Jade Talismans. There’s no knife…”
Li Sheng hesitated whether or not to bring Bai Chuwei a knife, afraid that it might become a weapon in her hands.
Suddenly, Bai Chuwei’s eyes lit up, and she reached out to pull a green leaf from a potted plant next to the sofa, plucking it off. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel✶fire.net
Then, with that leaf, Bai Chuwei effortlessly sliced open the jade, revealing a large expanse of white jade within.
The impact was visually stunning!
This seemed not enough, as Bai Chuwei continued to use the leaf as a knife, crafting patterns on that piece of jade.
Scraps of jade fell from Bai Chuwei’s hands, making a muffled sound as they hit the brown wooden floor.
Pair after pair of eyes stared dumbfounded at Bai Chuwei.
This… is this carving a Jade Talisman?
Those who didn’t know might think she was carving tofu.
What she held was extremely hard jade, certainly not tofu!
Others must use specialized equipment to meticulously polish a jade pendant, but Bai Chuwei just carved it with a leaf.
Everyone’s minds were instantly filled with the phrase—”A plucked leaf can kill when thrown.”
Bai Chuwei leisurely looked up at Li Sheng, who stood there stunned, her voice relaxed and tinged with a smile, “Boss Li, now, what do you think about the authenticity of my Spirit Talismans?”
