Origin Chapter 588: Butterfly

The secret room has five underground floors, which store magical weapons, medicinal herbs and spirits, rare sundries, and isolated copies of ancient books. The bottom floor is an ancient place prepared by Wan Shanhong for himself.

There are two floors on the ground. The upper floor is Wan Shanhong's boudoir, which he has never been to. The lower floor is filled with various sundries collected by Wan Shanhong from outside. These things have not yet been classified. cluttered together.

After entering the door, Zhao Ying looked around in amazement, "Where did you find so many strange things?"

"I didn't collect this, it was given to me by someone else," Wu Zhongyuan said, "is a mysterious woman, generous, right?"

"Why did she give you so many things?" Zhao Ying wondered.

"Excellent men are always favored by women." When there is no pressure, Wu Zhongyuan is not a very serious person.

"Is she an old rich woman?" Zhao Ying pouted with contempt.

"You really guessed it right," Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "I've always been curious about this person's age. It stands to reason that she should be very old, but she doesn't look old, and she is only around 30. "

Seeing the look of contempt on Zhao Ying's face, Wu Zhongyuan had to tell the truth, "How could someone like me receive favors from others in vain? I gave her a return gift of equal value, even exceeding the total value of these things."

"What return gift?" Zhao Ying tilted her head.

"The secrets of martial arts," Wu Zhongyuan said casually, "let's go, there is nothing good here, the good things are all below."

Wu Zhongyuan took Zhao Ying to the entrance of the underground palace, activated the mechanism, and opened the downward passage.

The first floor is about to be evacuated. Most of the black iron weapons were distributed by him to the masters of the three clans and the city lords of the major cities. Those who were incomplete were also moved back to re-casting, creating new weapons and distribution. For the yellow-robed guards, what was left in the stone room were mostly copper and iron weapons.

Zhao Ying was very interested in the pillar of fire in the stone room on the first floor, and only walked over to follow him to the second floor after Wu Zhongyuan opened the second stone door to call.

The second floor stores spiritual items, including medicinal pills. He also took some of the things here before, and there are still many left. There are medicinal medicinal herbs for beauty and longevity, as well as pills for balancing Yin and Yang and prolonging life. , Wu Zhongyuan will not be stingy, pick a good one, and give Zhao Ying a handful of each.

"Let's go, good things are on the third floor." Wu Zhongyuan waved to Zhao Ying.

"What kind of martial arts secrets did you give her?" Zhao Ying asked in confusion. The remaining collections and empty storage racks indicate that the collections here are very rich and can no longer be described as invaluable.

"The secret of martial arts that can become an immortal." Wu Zhongyuan laughed, Zhao Ying is not a person who practices Qi, so it is difficult for her to believe in things beyond her knowledge.

Zhao Ying was dubious, she didn't ask any further questions, and followed Wu Zhongyuan down to the third floor.

The third floor was filled with rare objects. Zhao Ying had no aura cultivation and could not see things at night. Wu Zhongyuan took the hibiscus stick and forced the aura, causing it to generate a hot flame.

The sudden flames startled Zhao Ying, instinctively retreated, and the piebald butterfly parked on her shoulder was also surprised and fluttered.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't take much of the things on the third floor, most of them are still there. Wu Zhongyuan held a fire stick in one hand and raised the lighting, "You can choose whatever you like."

Zhao Ying turned her head and looked around, observing.

"Try not to take too big, it's not easy to carry when you go back." Wu Zhongyuan walked to the right side, grabbed a few jade bracelets on the table, walked back and put them on Zhao Ying's wrist, "These bracelets It can be worth 100 million, do you believe it?"

"What material is this?" Zhao Ying looked down.

"The two white ones are Hetian mutton fat jade, which seems to be rare after the Song Dynasty," Wu Zhongyuan pointed out, "Hetian jade began to be mined as early as ancient times, and it has been continuously In modern times, only a few rivers originating from the Kunlun Mountains produce high-quality Hetian jade. The output is very rare, and even fewer can reach the level of suet. Look at this one. The entire outer ring is red. This is the seed material. The outer skin of the bracelet shows that the seeds used to polish the bracelet are originally regular circles. The best quality is no longer enough to describe its rarity. Hundreds of millions."

"Really?" Zhao Ying frowned.

"Of course it's true, what were you doing during the appraisal class?" Wu Zhongyuan asked casually.

"I'm appraising you." Zhao Ying smiled.

Wu Zhongyuan glanced at her, then pointed to another bracelet, "This Hetian jade bracelet is also very good, the powder is fine and oily, and the whiteness can reach the highest level, but it has no outer skin, so it cannot be proved that it comes from seeds. material, so the value is greatly discounted, but at least it is worth several million.”

"It's all Hetian Yu, why is there such a big difference?" Zhao Ying asked.

"Jade is like a woman, with body, appearance, temperament, and self-cultivation, all have criteria for judging. Some women are good-looking, but their temperament is not good, and they have no cultural background, so their value is not very high. Comprehensive consideration of factors, accurate assessment." Wu Zhongyuan said that here is a slight extension, "It is also Hetian jade, not only produced in my country, but also produced in Russia and South Korea, and the official certificate of Hetian jade can be issued by the appraisal agency. The value of Hetian jade in Russia is much lower than that in my country, and the quality of Hetian jade produced in South Korea is the worst. The jade bracelet is only a few hundred yuan, and the pendant is only a few dozen yuan. The gold used in shopping malls is used to deceive people. The inlaid jade is made of Korean material, so don't be superstitious about the appraisal certificate."

Wu Zhongyuan said here and pointed to a blue bracelet, "This bracelet is made of turquoise, from the Hubei region, do you see it, there is no iron wire at all, it is flawless, you must know that the turquoise is not very large Children, and the impurities are generally very heavy, you don't think its ring is smaller than these two Hetian jade bracelets, but it is extremely difficult to obtain, things like this quality are already priceless, and I also I can't estimate the specific price, it's priceless if you like it, but the bottom line must be more than six figures."

While Zhao Ying was looking down at the bracelets, Wu Zhongyuan went to the other side and grabbed two necklaces and returned, and wrapped them around Zhao Ying's neck involuntarily.

"What is this?" Zhao Ying asked.

"This white string is the inner core of a century-old tortoise. There are a total of 100 pieces, meaning longevity." Wu Zhongyuan picked up another string, "This black string is cut and polished by dragon horns, remember , is a dragon horn, not the horns of other animals, these two things are unique, and there is no way to estimate them."

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan was still looking around, Zhao Ying hurriedly stopped, "Don't look for it, enough is enough."

"It's okay, these things are of no use to me, and I can't discount it at this time." Wu Zhongyuan said casually.

"You can use it to reward your officials and women in the harem." Zhao Ying said.

"I have my own measure." Wu Zhongyuan picked up a string of colored necklaces, looked at them, and put them back. It was a string of glazed beads. Glazed glass is of the same nature as modern glass. It was a good thing at this time, but since Modern is not worth much.

Then picked up a string of transparent beads, looked at them and put them back. This is a string of crystal beads. The composition of crystal is mainly silicon dioxide, which is similar to the composition of glass and sand. Like obsidian, they are all low-grade. cheap jewelry.

"There's a bunch of good stuff here," Wu Zhongyuan put a bunch of red beads around Zhao Ying's neck again, "This is the real red coral, it's extinct in modern times, and all you can see on the market are dyes. white corals, or even cheaper sea willows.”

"Only this string? I don't want it, you leave it to her." Zhao Ying wanted to pick it down.

Wu Zhongyuan reached out his hand to stop it, "She doesn't have it, but she has me."

"Are you compensating for the loser?" Zhao Ying smiled wryly.

"I'm expressing my concern for the woman who likes me." Wu Zhongyuan laughed.

Zhao Ying sighed and did not continue to pick.

"Look at it again, pick a few pieces." Wu Zhongyuan stretched out his hand and circled his fingers.

"Enough is enough." Zhao Ying felt a little down.

"Look, there are things here that you can't see anywhere else," Wu Zhongyuan said.

Zhao Ying nodded and walked around in the company of Wu Zhongyuan. Everything here is in a directory. Wu Zhongyuan took the directory back and put it in the Zhongtian Hall. I know a lot about the collections here. When I encounter rare and valuable items, I will bring them to Zhao Ying.

Not long after Zhao Ying finished her visit, she turned her eyes to the two coffins by the wall.

"In that sarcophagus is a woman carved by Tai Sui, and in the iron coffin is the body of a fairy." Wu Zhongyuan explained casually.

Zhao Ying had no interest in the two coffins at first, but after hearing Wu Zhongyuan's explanation, she became curious.

Wu Zhongyuan felt this, so he took her to the sarcophagus and opened the lid for her to look at.

Zhao Ying looked at him for a moment, then turned to look at him with rather ambiguous eyes.

"Don't look at me, I like to live." Wu Zhongyuan shook his head repeatedly.

"What does a fairy look like?" Zhao Ying looked at the iron coffin again.

"It's almost like an ordinary person." Wu Zhongyuan walked to the iron coffin.

"Aren't all the gods in legends immortal? How could he die?" Zhao Ying asked curiously.

"The immortal also has a soul and soul. This immortal's primordial spirit has been destroyed, and only the body is left." Wu Zhongyuan lifted the heavy coffin lid with one hand.

Using the light of the fire stick, Zhao Ying leaned forward and looked down, "How long has he been dead? Why does it seem like he's asleep."

"At the level of an immortal, the physical body can exist forever," Wu Zhongyuan said. "As far as I know, this person died thousands of years ago, even longer than the Great War."

"How did he die?" Zhao Ying asked again.

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "I don't know."

Just as the two were talking, the piebald butterfly flew from the side, its wings were burned by the flame of the fire stick, and it fell to death.

"How do you know..." Zhao Ying suddenly took a deep breath and turned her head in astonishment.

While Zhao Ying turned her head in astonishment, Wu Zhongyuan also let go, the lid of the coffin fell, and the iron coffin closed.

"What did you see?" Wu Zhongyuan asked with a frown.

"He opened his eyes..."
