The First Immortal of Swordsmanship

Chapter 691: Abacus, Bell, and Scale

There was a moment of silence.

Dong Guofeng suppressed his inner curiosity and turned around to leave.

He was seriously injured and would be very vulnerable to misfortune in the event of an accident.

But just a few steps away, that strange bell sounded again.

Dong Guofeng stamped his feet and turned around suddenly.

That wisp of bell sound came from a mysterious pawn shop not far away!

At this moment, the closed door of the bamboo building opened from the inside, revealing a figure.

This is a short old man, dressed as a businessman, with a mustache, a black round hat on his head, and his hands in his sleeves.

Under the orange lights on the eaves, you can clearly see that the little old man is smiling and amiable.

Guest, Xiao Lao, this pawn shop has not been open for a long time. It is rare that we meet a swordsman like our guest tonight. Please come in and talk about it.

As he spoke, he clasped his fists slightly in a gesture of invitation.

Dong Guofeng hesitated for a moment and said, Dare I ask if that bell was made by a senior?

Before, it was that strange bell that woke him up like a wake-up call from his hazy state.

It can be said that this kind of thing saved his sword heart!

The short old man smiled warmly and said: Seniors don't dare to take this position. Guests can just call me 'Lao Chaofeng'.

Chaofeng is a name for the pawnshop owner.

There is no doubt that the short old man is the owner of this mysterious pawn shop.

As for the bell, it is not controlled by the little old man. Whenever it senses a customer who is qualified to enter this pawn shop, it will take the initiative to make a sound and invite the customer to come.

The short old man who called himself Lao Chaofeng had a meaningful look in his eyes and said, Even the little old man didn't expect that after so many years, he would meet such a customer on this Cangqing Continent... a sword cultivator who is qualified to enter the pawn shop.

The word Jian Xiu came out of his mouth, adding a strange flavor.

Dong Guofeng said with an moved expression: Senior, what you mean is that only those selected by the bell will have the opportunity to enter this pawn shop?

Lao Chaofeng smiled and nodded. He did not correct Dong Guofeng's title of himself and said: Guest, please.

Dong Guofeng took a deep breath and walked in.

The first floor of the bamboo building is extremely vast, with a counter spread across it, and on it are an abacus, a bronze lamp, and a steelyard.

Behind the counter, there is a shelf full of items.

The copper lamps and candles were as bright as beans, and the light and shadow were dim, making the rest of the area around the pawn shop look very dark, as if shrouded in mist.

Lao Chaofeng stood behind the counter, and the dim light cast a shadow on his warm and kind face, adding a touch of mystery.

As soon as Dong Guo Fengfu came in, he was attracted by a sword at first sight.

This sword hangs in the corner of the top of the container. It is as thin as a cicada's wing, like a clear stream of autumn water. On the hilt of the sword, there are two small characters yinghuo engraved on it.

However, no matter how hard Dong Guofeng tried, he could not sense any breath from this sword.

This sword was pawned by a Xuanyou realm sword king a long time ago. It has been more than 10,000 years ago. According to the agreement, if he does not come to redeem it within 10,000 years, the sword will belong to this pawn shop. , available for exchange by guests.”

Lao Chaofeng said softly, However, this sword is too fierce and not suitable for guests.

Dongguo Feng was horrified, a Xuanyou Realm Sword King stayed behind! ?

Which sword king would be willing to pawn his sword?

After calming down his mind, Dong Guofeng moved his eyes and saw that there were all kinds of treasures on the shelves, such as Dao

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Seal, vase, jade ruler, furnace tripod, etc.

In addition, there are also other strange things, such as hairpins, jade pendants, hair, animal skins, bones, etc.

No matter what kind of item it is, it is covered with an invisible force. You can only see it, but cannot sense the breath of those items.

And when he saw a severed hand displayed on the shelf, Dong Guofeng couldn't help but be startled.

This severed hand is slender and crystal clear, with white and slender fingers.

Just seeing it gives people a sense of amazement.

It was undoubtedly a woman's hand.

Senior, this hand...

Dong Guofeng couldn't help but ask.

Lao Chaofeng said in a casual tone: This is the left hand that was pawned by an empress, just to give her beloved man a magical medicine that can bring the dead back to life.

Left by a female emperor...

Dong Guofeng's heart trembled, and he subconsciously asked, Senior, are the items on these shelves all left by people in the imperial realm?

Lao Chaofeng shook his head and said: No, from ancient times to the present, the guests who can be invited by the bell include both emperors and ordinary warriors who have just begun to practice. No matter what their origin, what ethnic group they are, whether they are human or ghost, demon or monster, as long as they are Anyone who is invited by the bell is qualified to enter the door of this pawn shop.

I see……

Dong Guofeng muttered to himself, but his heart could not calm down for a long time.

What kind of pawn shop must be so incredible?

At this moment, Dong Guofeng even felt as unreal as a dream.

Guest, according to the rules of the pawn shop, guests can put forward any needs they have when they come in. As long as our pawn shop can handle it, we will satisfy it.

Lao Chaofeng pressed his finger on the abacus on the counter and said with a smile, Of course, the premise is that the guest must pay an equal price. This is the so-called pawn.

Dong Guofeng couldn't help but be surprised and considered: If I want to become an emperor, can your pawnshop help me achieve it?

Lao Chaofeng said with a smile: Yes.

He pointed to the steel scale on the counter and said: As long as the guest puts his hand on the scale and gets its approval, the guest will take out what he likes and pawn it, and the little old man will hand over the method of becoming an emperor. To the guests.”

Dong Guofeng couldn't help but be surprised.

He originally just made an outrageous request as a test, but he never thought that the other party seemed to be able to do it!

Then...what if I want that sword?

Dong Guofeng looked at the Ying Huo Sword hanging on the shelf.

Lao Chaofeng smiled and said: It's still the same method. As long as you get the approval of the steelyard and pawn it, that's it.

Dong Guofeng finally figured it out, In other words, if the scale doesn't approve it, I won't be able to get what I want.

Lao Chaofeng said meaningfully: Guest, sometimes when there are too many choices, you don't know what you really want most, and this steel scale can help you know.

Dong Guofeng said in surprise: Seriously?

Lao Chaofeng said with a smile: Young men are not deceived. The guests will know it once they try it.

Dong Guofeng hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said: Forget it, I have no need here, so there is no need to give it a try.

Lao Chaofeng's eyes were subtle and his smile became warmer. He said: It is reasonable for guests to be wary. However, according to the rules, if you enter a pawn shop but do not conduct a transaction, you will be punished.

Dong Guofeng's pupils suddenly shrank and he said, Senior, are you planning to buy and sell by force?

Lao Chaofeng shook his head and said: Guests, don't panic. It's just the rules of the pawn shop. The so-called punishment

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Punishment is just a small admonishment, and it will never kill the guest.

Dong Guofeng frowned and said, Then how should I be punished?

Lao Chaofeng picked up the abacus on the counter and said, Of course, let it do the calculations.

Speaking of this, he looked at Dong Guofeng and said with a kind smile: Guest, you have a low level of cultivation and don't understand the pawn shop. You probably don't know what kind of extraordinary situation you are encountering now. good fortune.

Throughout the ages, there have been emperor-level figures with heaven-reaching skills, who exchanged their treasures here for their favorite treasures, and there are also ordinary warriors, who have received heaven-reaching inheritance and changed their fates against the will of heaven.

Paying a reciprocal price for this is the fairest thing in itself.

After a pause, Lao Chaofeng said with a smile, Of course, if the guest refuses, I won't force him. I just don't want the guest to miss this good fortune.

After all, throughout the ages, the people who can be invited by the bell are only a handful of people among all living beings.

Dong Guofeng was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head and said: What I desire will be obtained by my own efforts, not by transactions.

There was a trace of regret in Lao Chaofeng's eyes, and he nodded: Then we can only use this abacus to figure out how to punish the guests.

Dong Guofeng's heart tightened and he became alert.

Wow!

The abacus with a dim luster suddenly started to vibrate on its own, and the abacus beads moved quickly one by one, making a crisp and dense sound.

But at this moment——

clang!

A rapid ringing of a bell made Lao Chaofeng's short figure tremble all over. Before he could recover, the abacus on the counter suddenly trembled.

Even the beams and weights of the steelyard were shaking violently.

Lao Chaofeng's expression changed completely, his kind and gentle face turned into a look of shock and anger, and his hands were trembling.

Dong Guofeng couldn't help but be surprised, what happened?

Time passes by.

Lao Chaofeng's expression was uncertain. After a long time, he nodded imperceptibly.

Then, the rushing bells disappeared, and the abacus and steelyard stopped and returned to calm.

At this moment, Lao Chaofeng suddenly took a deep breath, raised his hand and pointed at the abacus on the counter, and congratulated Dong Guofeng with a smile:

Guest, congratulations. The result of the abacus is that this time not only will the guest be exempted from punishment, but the guest will also be given a fate!

Giving me fate?

Dong Guofeng was a little confused.

However, he was keenly aware that after the incident just now, the mysterious old Chaofeng's attitude towards him had obviously undergone an astonishing change!

Yes, I have to say that the guest is indeed a person with deep luck and good fortune...

Lao Chaofeng's eyes were complicated, his voice was weak, and he seemed very perfunctory.

As he spoke, he reached out and tapped the scale.

clang!

The scale trembled slightly, and a ray of light suddenly appeared on the scale. In a flash of light, a bronze box appeared on the counter out of thin air.

The bronze box is two feet long, and its surface is covered with dense and strange Taoist patterns, exuding a heavy aura of vicissitudes of time.

When he saw this thing, the corners of Lao Chaofeng's lips twitched violently, and his heart was bleeding.

At this moment, he had the urge to smash the scale with a slap!

You damn bastard, no matter how afraid you are of that guy named Su, you can't take out this treasure!
