Chapter 973: I Am Not Afraid of Thieves Stealing, I Am Afraid of Thieves Thinking About It
Pan Yucheng smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be afraid sometimes?"
Ning Chen rolled his eyes, "Nonsense, aren't you afraid of being targeted by a super master?
If we fight head-on, I'm not afraid...but I'm in the open and he's in the dark, it's hard to defend against a sneak attack."
Pan Yucheng said, "Didn't Miss Yue lead people to search for the city lord? That person might have already run away."
Ning Chen shook his head, "You also know that it's possible? What if he's hiding somewhere? It's not difficult for a super master to avoid a search."
Pan Yucheng smiled and said, "I didn't see you afraid when I took the risk to capture Leng Wenyan alive before."
"How can it be the same? When we captured Leng Wenyan alive, we were in the dark and Leng Wenyan was in the open...Now I'm in the open and the man in white is in the dark." Ning Chen sighed, "I've been sneaking around too many times, and I'm always afraid of being sneaked around...It's better to be an old sneak."
Pan Yucheng's face became serious, "This person must be found, otherwise I'll feel uneasy."
Ning Chen nodded.
As the two were talking, Xiao Yanxi came over.
Ning Chen's face changed, "Why did you come here by yourself? How dangerous is it?"
Xiao Yanxi smiled, "Don't think of me as a delicate and weak woman, I am the Master Le of Taichu Pavilion, and I am ranked among the best in the world... Don't worry, I stepped on the roof all the way here.
But you are too amazing, you actually killed Leng Wenyan."
Ning Chen was full of pride, "I said it a long time ago, this risk is worth taking."
Xiao Yanxi was about to speak, but suddenly her pretty face changed, staring at Ning Chen's chest, "You, you are injured?"
Ning Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's a minor injury, it's nothing!"
"Minor injuries must be treated in time, it's not good if they are infected."
As he said that, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms.
Children of the world always have medicine for treating sword injuries.
Ning Chen's injury was not serious.
Xiao Yanxi gently helped him apply the medicine.
"Old Pan is also injured, can you give him some medicine?"
Xiao Yanxi nodded.
Pan Yucheng was a little embarrassed, "I can do it myself!"
Xiao Yanxi smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll do it!"
After Xiao Yanxi helped Pan Yucheng apply the medicine, Ning Chen said, "Xiao Xixi, you came at the right time... The wound on my body was left by a man in white. This person is a super master, and his strength is comparable to mine."
Xiao Yanxi was shocked, "Super master?"
Ning Chen nodded, "This person is dressed in white, and his face is covered by a mask, so his full appearance cannot be seen... But from his eyes, this person has an outstanding appearance and is no more than 40 years old.
The ranking of super masters is completed by Taichu Pavilion... Can you guess who this person is?"
Xiao Yanxi thought about it and shook her head slightly, "Super masters are like dragons that can only be seen from the beginning but not the end. The ranking of Taichu Pavilion is mostly based on their battle records, and they may not necessarily be seen in person."
Ning Chen was a little disappointed, but immediately took out half a jade pendant from his arms.
"This is what the man in white left behind. Can you tell what's engraved on it?"
Xiao Yanxi took it and took a look at it, then said, "It's engraved with forget-me-not."
Ning Chen leaned over to take a look, "Are there any words on it? Why can't I see it?"
Xiao Yanxi smiled and said, "It's not a word. Forget-me-not is a kind of flower, usually given to each other by lovers... It probably means eternal love, don't forget me, etc.
This is a piece of top-quality Baishan jade, which is rare on the market."
Ning Chen said, "Baishan jade? I remember that there was Baishan jade in the reward given to me by my father. I heard that it was very expensive."
Xiao Yanxi hummed, "Baishan jade has a warm texture and very little production. Ordinary people can't afford it. It is mostly used by royal relatives and dignitaries.
I once went to an auction house with my teacher and bought a piece of Baishan jade of excellent quality. It was the size of a fist and worth 20,000 taels of silver."
Ning Chen pouted. I don't know why? As soon as he heard about Xiao Yanxi, the teacher, he felt uncomfortable. Maybe it was stereotyped prejudice?
"Your teacher is an idiot."
Xiao Yanxi looked at him with both anger and amusement. This man was too jealous. He couldn't even mention her teacher.
Ning Chen said, "I'm not scolding him. I'm just telling the truth... Gold and silver have a price, but jade is priceless. To put it bluntly, this thing is just a piece of stone. The high price is just hype... I will never spend 20,000 taels of silver to buy a piece of stone."
Xiao Yanxi smiled and said, "You are wrong. People often use jade to describe people, such as a face like a crown of jade, gentle as jade... Jade is also a symbol of status. Since ancient times, the jade seals of emperors have all been polished and carved from jade?
It's true that jade is a piece of stone, but the added value of jade to people is far beyond the comparison of other things."
Ning Chen rolled his eyes, "Okay, okay... Your teacher is not an idiot, okay?"
Your teacher is a big idiot, Ning Chen complained in his heart.
Immediately, Ning Chen put away the jade pendant, which is the key clue to finding the man in white.
"Xiao Xixi, ask Taichu Pavilion to help me check... Among the super-class masters, is there anyone who dresses as if someone has died at home and likes to wear jade pendants?"
Xiao Yanxi said: "Tan Tai Qingyue!"
Ning Chen's mouth twitched fiercely.
"I mean men."
Xiao Yanxi thought for a while and said: "That's Kang Luo."
Ning Chen shook his head, "Kang Luo does often dress as if someone has died at home, and likes to wear jade pendants...but he is not a super-class master."
Xiao Yanxi nodded, "Being targeted by a super-class master is no small matter. I will have someone check as soon as possible... Can you recognize which martial arts style the other party uses?"
Ning Chen shook his head, "I don't deal with martial arts sects very often... Old Pan, can you tell?"
Pan Yucheng shook his head, "The gap is too big. I can't see the sword moves of the super-class master at all."
Ning Chen thought for a while and said, "This person's swordsmanship is sharp and fierce, and his sword moves are weird. Every move goes straight to the vital point."
Xiao Yanxi looked at him speechlessly.
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Yanxi said: "Your description... Forget it, I'll help you check."
A strange thought suddenly popped up in Ning Chen's mind. He looked at Xiao Yanxi, "Xiao Xixi, does your teacher know martial arts?"
"Of course, my teacher is both civil and martial..." Xiao Yanxi suddenly kept silent. She forgot that the man next to her was very jealous. Then she changed the subject, "My teacher's martial arts is definitely not as good as yours. My teacher is barely a first-class master."
Ning Chen felt comfortable all of a sudden.
Xiao Yanxi suddenly turned her head and looked at Ning Chen, "Why do you ask that? You don't suspect that the man in white is my teacher, do you?"
"How is it possible? Your teacher is just a first-class master. To me, he is just a piece of shit. I can kill him in one move."
Ning Chen said this, but he actually had such a guess in his heart just now.
Pan Yucheng's mouth twitched, and he looked at him sideways, "What do you mean?"
Ning Chen's expression froze slightly. Well... I offended another person invisibly.
He laughed dryly: "Old Pan, I definitely didn't say anything about you, don't take it personally... I was only talking about her teacher."
Xiao Yanxi: "......."
