Chapter 442: Got a new teacher?
Hu Guan Shi's gaze has just been cast on Master Yi Fan, and the old man has already noticed it, but he acted like he didn’t see Hu Guan Shi.
Yuan Zhan also noticed Hu Guan Shi. He really hoped that Hu Guan Shi would do something. To be honest, he was very bored and wanted to find something to do or beat.
"The ten demon creature bones, how are you going to sell them?" The old man asked Yan Mo.
Yan Mo spread his hand. "As you have guessed, I don't know the value of the bone. Do you want to quote me a price?"
The old man was slightly indulged. "There is not much demon power of the ten demon creature bones. There is no more than one hundred of it. Maybe those creatures were low-level Demon creatures before they were killed. The most valuable thing is the demon rabbit bone with healing energy, but only alone. The price of that bone is up to 10,000. The other bones are worth between 2000 and 3000, the average is 2800, ten together, I quote you 36,000 bone coins, if you sell them alone, It will be just about this price.”
“What do you want to buy them?” Yan Mo thought that the old man wouldn’t look down on these low-demon creature bones, at least he couldn’t want to get them.
"Of course." The old man was helplessly scorning the boy. "Didn't you hear what I just told you? The demon creature bones are scarce. Any shop and Bone-Sculptor will not easily let them go, even if the demon energy is less than ten. Remember, if you want to become an intermediate level Bone-Sculptor in the future, it is best not to reveal your bottom line easily when you encounter the demon creature bone. Although the bones are worth the money, how can you make the bone objects which are more expensive that no one will afford them?"
The old man clicked on the counter. "The cheapest bone treasure in my shop is sold more than 30,000 bone coins. It is a bone object with no special ability. It is not less than a 1000 bone coins."
Yan Mo was surprised when he heard the price of the bone objects and looked at the village witch Hou Nu. He remembered that there were bone objects in the Wadi village and the villages nearby, the Huoguo village and the Qianshan village, but the old man said that the cheapest bone objects should also cost more than a thousand bones, when he looked at Hou Nu again, his mind suddenly appeared with an image in a villages of the Hornless people. For the sake of respect, the whole village and several generations of financial resources were combed up together to buy a pair of objects for the village witch to wear.. If this is true, then the Bone Sculpting tribesmen is too clever and they know how to squeeze the money of the Hornless people in this way.
Hou Nu didn't know what Yan Mo was looking at and was busy showing him a respectful smile.
The old man followed his gaze and guessed his thoughts. He immediately laughed and said: "Bone objects in the village witches of the Hornless people living near the city are mostly given by the temple of the city. It is a status of recognition. Village witches like the Wuqian City, except the bone objects, have feathers on their heads. When the Horn-people sees the feathers on the witch's head and the bone objects on the body, they would know that the village is the one that is recognized and protected by horned nobleman. It is not a savage community."
What would be the end of the hornless community without recognition? Yan Mo did not continue to ask. He also heard the quotes of those people just now. According to the calculation, the price given by the old man is quite kind. Unless someone deliberately fails to go to the A-Lan shop, the result of the auction will not exceed by much.
"As you said, 36,000 bone coins, all sold to your store."
The old man heard a gesture of the shop manager, the shop manager has been paying attention to this side, seeing the gesture immediately clear, the manager current voice shouted to everyone in the store: "The seller has decided that the ten demon creature bones are not going to be sold separately, if you want to bid, then ten together. Our shop first bids..."
The old man raised three fingers.
The shop manager saw it and said loudly: "Thirty thousand!"
There are people who want to buy a single stock to send out noise.
The shop manager did not hear it.
Yan Mo raised his eyebrows and didn't quite understand the meaning of the old man doing this.
The old man turned his head and looked back at Yan Mo. He suddenly reached out and patted his head. Yan Mo held back and did not dodge. This is the sadness of his young and tender face. His Shifu, The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu also likes to pat his head.
Yuan Zhan felt that the old man was not malicious, and he did not move. Although he was very unhappy that someone had touched his Priest Da-Ren, but with the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu, he had gotten more tolerant of the same kind of old people patting Yan Mo head as compare to another.
The old man patted the soft hair of the Little Hornless man and smiled: "Don’t worry little one. Although I quoted the price, it will not take advantage of you. 36,000 bone coins is my low price. If someone bids more higher than me, you can also sell the bones to them."
At this time, the store has already sounded the bidding price. Most of them are bidders at the price of the objects shop owners. The price of the Bone-Sculptor is mostly low-level Bone-Sculptor, while the low-level Bone- Sculptor is not only financially strong except for his original family.
"How about it? Do you want to learn to sculpt the bone objects with me?" The old man spoke and added a bit of soul temptation suggestion.
Yan Mo glanced at the old man, and this level of spiritual suggestion should not be a thing in front of me. Believe it or not, I will show you soul power in language?
The old man was stunned by Yan Mo's eyes, then suddenly laughed. It seems that he has looked away, and this Hornless man is not as clever and honest as he imagined. However, this made him more satisfied with Yan Mo. The talent of the Hornless people to learn sculpt is not high. If one is stupid, it is a nightmare for the instructor.
Yan Mo had a good impression of the old man. While thinking about what kind of bone objects to gift him, he looked up and honestly said to the old man: "I think I must explain to you first, this necklace is very important to me, I will not trade it to anyone."
The old man showed a regretful expression, but he was not surprised.
"But you are right, I did learn sculpting bones. If you are willing to teach me, I will be very grateful. Of course, if I have what you need, I will try to find it you, but I can't guarantee that I will find it." Although the character of the old man looked good, but Yan Mo does not want to risk letting the other party know that he has other ancient bone objects, he does not want to test the greed of the human nature.
"Do you mean your ability to distinguish bones?"
Yan Mo saw the old man misunderstood and simply pushed the boat along the water. "Yes."
The old man smiled. "I need a lot of demon creature bones. Maybe your ability is really useful to me. Although I can identify most of the bones with my experience and soul strength, I don't have a third eye. I only have the natural keen eyes of the three eyes can see through all the disguise and see the truth."
The old man touched the spar in the middle of his eyebrows. His soul crystal color was purple. Since he was promoted to the Bone-Sculpting Master, the soul crystal color became purple black, but the soul crystal is not the third eye.
"Child, you seem to be confident in your ability? Then try this bone and tell me what you saw?" The old man showed a pair of bone objects on his bracelet and a crescent moon bracelet appeared on the counter.
Is this a test? Yan Mo saw the bone at first sight and knew that it was a normal bone without demon magic. The surface of the bone is very smooth, and there is a little faint luster. It is like the bones has been used for a long time, but in Yan Mo's eyes, this bone is also good-looking on the surface, and there is no fluctuation in the actual energy flow.
But Yan Mo didn't want the old man to know that he could tell that at a glance, and he deliberately picked up the bone and checked it.
And when he just touched this bone... eh?
Yan Mo came to a bit of interest and his attitude towards this bone was also a lot more serious.
After watching it for a while, he finally saw the trick, and he was almost cheated!
"This is the bone that has been sculpted recently," Yan Mo affirmed.
The old man’s eyes showed a praising color. “Yes.”
"It was with energy, but the demon energy is used up."
The old man smiled deeper, "Yes."
"It's the original bone pattern has been modified and has been modified... twice."
The old man was really surprised this time. "Bone-Sculptor noticing whose bone pattern has been modified, is quite a huge feat. But to be able to see that it has been modified twice, there are only a handful of people who can see this detail. This is not a problem of eyesight. It involves deep bone knowledge and understanding of bone carving lines. Now I have to wonder if you are really just a low-level Bone-Sculptor."
Yan Mo returned the compliment with a deceptively silly smile.
The old man’s expression was weird. He seemed to want to give Yan Mo a little pat, and he held back. “Tell me, what else can you see?”
Yan Mo hesitated between the need to hide, and Yuan Zhan's thick palm sliding from his shoulder to his neck at this time.
Yan Mo made the decision instantly: "If I didn't read it wrong, it was about a part of the bone object, which played the role of storing and releasing magic. It was modified twice. It is probably because it some parts on the bone objects were removed and mounted on another bone object, but the object could not function exactly, so the bone lines were re-modulated."
"..." The old man looked at Yan Mo for a while and didn't talk. He turned his head and suddenly shouted to the shop manager: "40,000!"
Hu Guan Shi resentful, he just came out to outbid 36,000, there are no other people around to quote, he was happy that he can take the ten demon creature bones, but!
The shop manager has quoted the price three times, and the other people in the store have never come out to a higher price than 40,000. Some people think that Master Yi Fan is willing to pay 40,000 bone coins in return for something else, and even suspect that the value of these ten demon creature bones is higher, although they really want to continue to quote, but think about it they decided to stop.
Thus, the bidding for the ten pieces of the bones is the result.
Although the shop manager thinks that this price is a bit high, but the old man screamed the price, out of the trust of the old man, the shop manager does not feel that he will suffer. He put away the ten bones and smiles at every on in the shop and then he shouted: "Our store also has a separate demon creature bone to sell, interested guests are welcome to stay and see, and the price is good."
Some people are not reconciled. They dare not talk directly to Master Yi Fan. They are surrounded by the store and want to let them sell their respective demon creature bones through this auction.
The shop manager laughed, and he can handle it freely.
Hu Guan Shi inhaled deeply, but fortunately his main purpose is not the bones.
Yan Mo smiled, "Thank you." More than four thousand bone coins, is this a recognition of his ability?
The old man looked serious. "What is your name?"
Yan Mo did not hide: "My name is Mo, and I have been called Mo for a while."
He is talking about the free translation in the Bone Sculpting people language. After learning the cursing with the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu, he learned that the real name and name of the witch cannot be told to others.
He tried to use the word "Yan Mo" in the Jiu Yuan language, which had no effect on him. However, if he uses his previous native pronunciation to call his full name Yan Mo, it will have a special effect. According to The Curse-Witch Zhou Wu theory, this seems to be because his own soul only recognizes that pronunciation is his real name.
Coincidentally, in the common language of the Eastern Continent, salt and Yan are the same, which is why the people of the Yuan Ji Tribe thought he was Yan Moof the Salt Mountain Tribe Yanshan while he real name from the previous world is Yan Mo and it has nothing to do with the Salt Mountain people.
The old man pointed to himself, "I am Yi Fan, and you can call me Mr. Yi Fan later."
Yan Mo understands that the Bone Sculpting people language Mr. is the equivalent of the word meaning teacher, is the old man trying to admit him as a student? But the old man quickly broke his guess.
"Although I asked you to call me Mr., but I did not put you in the wall, you can only be regarded as an apprentice, and one day you will get advanced level Bone-Sculptor I will admit that you are my disciple. This is not just for you, I say this to all of my students.”
Just as Yan Mo doesn't want to be an apprentice, he has the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu as his Shifu. If the Curse-Witch Zhou Wu knows that he has worshipped other Shifu, he will bet that even if he is separated by a piece of ocean, Shifu will use the most mean curse to curse the people who robbed his disciples.
“Mr. Yi Fan.” Yan Mo saluted with the Jiu Yuan etiquette.
The old man looked slower, put away the crescent moon bone, and waved to Yan Mo, "Follow me."
The counter door opens and Yan Mo waved to Hou Nu and Hou Shi.
Hu Guan Shi saw Master Yi Fan take Yan Mo away, anxious, and immediately shouted in front of the two steps: "Master Yi Fan, please wait a moment!"
The old man turned back and Yan Mo also followed.
Others heard Hu Guan Shi shouting the identity of Master Yi Fan, not knowing what he was going to do, know they all turned also looking at him.
The busy people in the store saw that the bones had been sold and they were leaving. At this time, they suddenly heard a familiar name, and many people stopped and turned back.
“Master Yi Fan? The only Bone-Sculpting Master in the Wuqian City?”
"I didn't get it wrong? Master Yi Fan is here too?"
“Where is Master Yi Fan? Who is Master Yi Fan?”
"You don't know?" Someone smugly whispered: "This shop is the shop under the name of Master Yi Fan. The bones sold in it are better than the upper city stores, but the price is too expensive."
The people who didn't know Master Yi Fan also knew who the old Black-Horn Clan was, and many of the low-level Bone-Sculptor eyes were bright. They don't dare to disturb Master Yi Fan right away, but they heard that Master Yi Fan is always worthy of pointing out the talented or willing Bone-Sculptor. He is also one of the Bone-Sculpting Master, if...
Even if you know their hope, but everyone will dream of falling to their own head, in the case of others do not go, several Bone-Sculptor are like you see me and I see you, no one will make a move first.
Master Yi Fan frowned and asked faintly: "Who are you? What's the matter? If you want to buy bone objects, tell your request to my store, they will..."
"Master, I don't want to ask you to sculpt the bone objects. There are the storekeepers of the Hu-De Bone Objects Store for that. I ask you to wait a moment because the one behind you is a little man related to my store." Hu Guan Shi respected the old man with a greeting, "May the glory of the Pan’a gods cover you forever."
Master Yi Fan doesn't look please by that, "Oh? What is the relationship between this little man and your store?"
Yan Mo also wanted to hear what Hu Guan Shi meant. He didn't immediately shout the denial, and it was useless to say that he denied it.
Hu Guan Shi quickly weaved the language, pointing to Yan Mo in front of all the people: "This Little Hornless man is actually the Bone Sculptor person who was specially hired by our shop, and we paid bone coins at the village. The village witch has a lot of our bone coins. But this Little Hornless man is very cunning and escaped on the way. We searched all the way. I didn't expect him to enter the Wuqian City. I think he didn't have money, that’s why he had to come out and make bones. We almost let him run away again."
Everyone: Do you think we believe you? Anyway, we don't believe it.
Master Yi Fan certainly won't believe that, because if Hu Guan Shi is telling the truth, this Little Hornless man will have long been wearing the Enslavement Bone, how could he let him escape? What's more, this Little Hornless man is surrounded by the hornless Demon warrior, who can see Hu Guan Shi's expression. But how does he doesn't know the warrior's details.
But Master Yi Fan didn't remind him of this, just asked on the matter: "So, this little man is your slave?"
Hu Guan Shi daringly said: "Yes."
"So why didn't he wear the Enslavement Bone?"
"I don't know the details. It is said that the Little Hornless man was sick at the time and it is not suitable to wear the Enslavement Bone immediately with his health."
"Isn’t there always have a slave imprint?"
"This... there was no time to brand it."
Master Yi Fan's expression is still very dull, and even the tone has not changed much. He just throw it out and blow up the lies like a bomb: "So you don't have any evidence to say that Yi Fan's apprentice is your shop slave?"
What? Wait! What did Master Yi Fan say? Everyone doubted their ears.
Hu Guan Shi was busy arguing: "We can identify him, we can find his tribesmen. Master, we are not messy..."
Hu Guan Shi suddenly was shocked, what did Master Yi Fan say?
The rest of the store opened a murmurs of conversations after a silence.
“What did Master Yi Fan say? He said that the Hornless people is his apprentice?”
"Master Yi Fan's apprentice? A Hornless man? This, this..." I want to say that this is impossible, but this is indeed what Master Yi Fan said, and everyone can hear it clearly!
But a Bone-Sculpting Master even received anyone as a disciple?
Anyone who knows a little about Master Yi Fan knows that Master Yi Fan never accepts disciples. He is not looking for an apprentice. He only accepts an apprentice at an advanced level Bone-Sculptor qualification, which is 9th rank and above Bone-Sculptor. He recognizes the discipleship of the other party..
For this reason, everyone knows that the apprentices in Master Yi Fan are no different from the disciples!
Hu Guan Shi's face changed and the buzzing sound continued. Master Yi Fan’s questioning is more exaggerated than the effect of a stone that stirs up a thousand waves. How many people’s eyes are on Yan Mo, and if the eyes can be turned into essence, Yan Mo’s back will be already on fire.
Hu Guan Shiswallowed his mouth and said: "Master Yi Fan, do you really want to accept a Hornless man as an apprentice?"
Master Yi Fan asked with a funny smiling face: "What? Is there any rule that would not allow me to accept a Hornless man as an apprentice?"
Hu Guan Shi’s brain flashed and he blurted out: “But the last time the city’s lord Da-Ren asked you to accept his third son, you refused. Can we not have a Horn Noble worth than a Hornless man? ”
"What do you mean by this?" Master Yi Fan looked down.
Hu Guan Shi also thought over what he said. The words he just said are actually not good, but the words have been said. It is impossible to take them back.
Hu Guan Shi’s heart was swaying, and there is a priest backing the store. He simply don’t want to say but he amended it to: “Master, this Hornless man is indeed a slave bought by our shop. You want evidence. I can find his tribesmen to testify later. If you just pity him, there is absolutely no need to say that he is your apprentice, you are a Bone-Sculpting Master, you are the master under the temple priest, and you now say that you want to receive a Hornless man as an apprentice, other Bone-Sculpting Master How to do?"
Hu Guan Shi said that the meaning of the threat from priest has been frightening him.
How can Master Yi Fan not hear? At the moment, he laughed and said: "What other people want to do is their business. It is my freedom to accept who is an apprentice. Hu Guan Shi, Priest Hu-De knows that you are bullying a Bone-Sculpting Master using his name?"
This is very heavy, and it is too heavy an obvious warning for Hu Guan Shi to bear.
The rest of the store was also very dissatisfied with Hu Guan Shi's aggressive attitude, and everyone knew that he was lying, especially from the bones he scammed earlier. Everyone guessed that Hu Guan Shi was fascinated by the ability of the Little Hornless man to identify bones. He wanted to force him to be one of his slave men and squeeze the Little Hornless man talent.
If they do this in any other occasions, they may sympathize with the experience of the Little Hornless man, but they won't say much, but now it is different to have a Bone-Sculpting Master pissed off.
In the store, there was a loud talk, and some competing shops with bad relations with Hu-De bone objects shop began to ridicule Hu Guan Shi directly, and Bone-Sculptor blamed Hu Guan Shi as a civilian and even spoke to the Bone-Sculpting Master. Disrespectful.
"Hey Gods Above! How dare I bully the master? I am just..." Hu Guan Shi had sweats on his head, step by step, step by step, he has been riding himself on a tiger, "Yes, I just don't want the Hornless man slaves to deceive you, Master Yi Fan, you have to believe me, I am absolutely not disrespectful to you. I..."
"I will tell you again." Master Yi Fan hid his dislike of Hu Guan Shi and still said with warmth: "I have already accepted this apprentice. I saw him occasionally through the Silver Fox Forest five years ago. I think he has a certain talent in sculpting bones and he has been taken down here to meet me. Otherwise, do you think where does his ability to distinguish bones comes from? Why is it that he will come directly to my store with the demon creature bones? And why do I happen to be right here today? In the store?"
Right! Others are at a loss. Master Yi Fan didn't say no to the point that he is training a Hornless man, he said that phrase and people found out that it was really reasonable. People who felt that the master’s offer was too high for 40,000 people also felt that this here was an explanation. This is not the equivalent of Master helping the poor disciples.
Some people even nodded directly, and even the shop manager looked like a stunned expression. "I wondered how the master came to the store today, it was originally to see apprentice."
"Well, I made an appointment with him to meet in the city today. I didn't expect this little guy to run to identify the bones first." Master Yi Fan face had a helpless expression of "the primary school students are not obedient."
Yan Mo's mouth was slightly sour. His new teacher was holding a face of an honest and honest old professor. He was full of lies and made people believe that he was really an apprentice he had admitted five years ago.
Hou Nu and Hou Shi have the weird expressions of their faces, but they hold back and say nothing. In fact, they all have doubts that Yan Mo is really a disciple of Master Yi Fan.
Yuan Zhan stuck in his ear and finally couldn't help but ask him: "What are these people talking about?"
Yan Mo looked at him sympathetically: This is the sorrow that is still unspeakable in a foreign country. Others say it is cheerfully, but he can't understand anything. Yuan Zhan was silent to the present, not that he believes that was silence is gold, but he has no idea.
Suddenly, Yan Mo's heart moved. If his soul power is connected with the soul of Yuan Zhan, can Yuan Zhan understand everything he understands?
When he thought of it, Yan Mo whispered: "Don't resist me, open your heart and soul."
Yuan Zhan wouldn't resist him at all, and felt the invasion of Yan Mo's soul, and he naturally let go of his mental defense.
Hu Guan Shi struggled at this time to force a sentence: "Maybe my admission is wrong, I will go back and ask them. Oh, Master Yi Fan, I spoke a lot today, I hope not to have not annoyed you. If you calm in your heart, I will say goodbye."
Hu Guan Shi wandered away, and others watched Master Yi Fan with the Little Hornless man walking behind the store and gradually disappearing.
With the mouths of these people, Master Yi Fan's acceptance of a Hornless man as an apprentice was quickly spread in the Wuqian City, and it was passed to the upper ear before it was evening.
Here, Hu Guan Shi is more and angrier when he returns to the store. He didn't achieve his goal, and he felt that he lost his face. Not only did he hate Master Yi Fan who didn't give him face, but even the most innocent Yan Mo, he hated him.
A few of the Hornless people, he did not believe that if he really killed them, Master Yi Fan will be how he is!
"Go, check out which village of the Hornless people behind the little slave! One of them has black feathers on his head and bone objects on his body. It is a village witch in a nearby village."
"Yes, I will check it out." The shopkeeper saw that Hu Guan Shi was in a bad mood and disappeared.
