He's alone, but he's a tomb raider!
Chapter 9 The Exquisite Jade Key, Imaginary Space!
I thought I had transmigrated to a world where I was alone, but now it seems that this world is not so simple!
"But... what more could I ask for from a treasure I found for free!"
"The only problem is, how do we get the shark blood?"
While browsing through his phone's contacts, Qin Yun also began to think quietly.
Fortunately, not long after, when Qin Yun saw a name in the phone book, a smile appeared in his eyes.
"Beep beep~"
"Hey, Mr. Qin, what a rare guest! Are you looking to buy some ornamental fish to decorate the backyard of your 'Silent Abode'? I've said it before, your yard is a bit too quiet and cold. Wouldn't 'May you have abundance every year' be better?"
"Boss Zhang, long time no see! I heard you three brothers were locked in a shipping container by Xu Si and supposedly sunk at sea? I thought we wouldn't be able to get through, but I didn't expect we could still contact each other!"
The Boss Zhang that Qin Yun mentioned is actually named Zhang Cai.
He, Liu Fang, and Guan Ling were from the same school. After beheading a chicken and burning yellow paper, they became sworn brothers. Using the names of Liu, Guan, and Zhang, the three of them were also known as the Little Peach Garden of Tianjin!
The three brothers aren't particularly strong individually, but when they team up, they're quite formidable.
Therefore, in the circle of extraordinary people in Tianjin, the three brothers were considered to be well-known figures!
However, unlike the three brothers Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Zhang Cai and his two companions got together, they really did everything except good deeds.
Sure enough, the three brothers caused some trouble recently and caught the attention of Xu Si from the North China region.
Feng Baobao's actions locked the three people inside the container. According to ocean currents, they should be drifting towards Japan by now.
Fortunately, the three brothers were good swimmers and managed to climb back up halfway, reluctant to leave the embrace of their motherland.
In Tianjin, if you want to do some shady work that skirts the edges of legality, Xiao Taoyuan is the place to go.
Zhang Cai: "Oh, Master Qin, what are you saying?"
"Are Baojie and Fourth Brother really that kind of people? They were just giving us three brothers a loving lesson. You can eat anything, but you absolutely can't say anything carelessly!"
Xu Si and Feng Baobao, one ruthless and the other vicious.
Even a stubborn guy like Zhang Cai couldn't help but feel lingering fear whenever he thought of them.
……
Qin Yun leaned against the window on the second floor of the Silent House, casually tapping the windowsill with his fingertips, and replied in a calm and reserved Tianjin accent.
"Alright, enough of this small talk. It's good that you're in Tianjin."
"Mr. Zhang, I'd like to order three live spotted sharks from you, the kind commonly known as striped bamboo sharks, legally farmed ornamental sharks."
These days, a bamboo shark costs at least a thousand yuan, and if it's of good quality and large, it can easily cost three thousand.
Three for almost ten thousand!
For Qin Yun, this might not seem like much, but for Xiao Taoyuan, it was no small business.
"Oh my! So you want sharks, huh? You know your stuff!"
Our stock is perfectly sized, uniform in size, and docile – absolutely no mud!
All items are compliant with regulations; we absolutely do not include any protective products that cannot be touched. You can rest assured.
"That would be perfect."
Qin Yun said calmly, "I want three, they should be big, at least 30 centimeters or more."
There's a pond in my backyard next to the river; the water and soil are perfect for raising them.
The Shark Tooth Sword is quite large. If you buy one that's too small, it won't be able to draw out enough blood, which would affect the Shark Tooth Sword's ability to recognize its master, and that would be a huge loss.
Therefore, Qin Yun did not compromise in the slightest on this point.
Zhang Cai: "No problem! This size might be a problem for others, but it's nothing to me. We have plenty in our warehouse, and they're all top-notch."
"Sir, let's get this straight: transporting live aquatic animals requires meticulous care. Packing, oxygenation, and everything else must be arranged perfectly to ensure nothing goes wrong on the journey."
Qin Yun chuckled lightly: "I know all the rules. I won't haggle over the shipping and packaging fees. Just hurry up and ship it out; the sooner it arrives, the better. Ideally, it should arrive tonight."
"Hey! Don't worry, it'll be fine!" The boss patted his chest and agreed. "We've been doing business in the Central Flower, Bird, Fish and Insect Market for years, and this is the kind of reliable business we do."
I'll pack it up and ship it to you right now; it'll be delivered to your door tonight!
……
After finishing the call and ordering the shark, his golden eyes also fell on another magical artifact on the table.
[Item: Exquisite Jade Key!]
[Grade: Superior Magic Treasure (Fragment)]
[Status: Not yet bound to a master. While dripping blood, silently recite the following to complete the binding: A snake coils around the stone pillar, blood moistens the dark eyes, sand rises and the soul falls, the sacrificial rites resound in the abyss, the essence is undying, the ghostly eyes endure forever!]
【Origin: Originally created by the Zaglama tribe using the power of imaginary space, this is a special magical artifact used to explore ghost caves. The whole thing is shaped like an eyeball, and the jade key is the mechanism to activate the eyeball. Later, the Zaglama tribe left the territory of Jingjue Kingdom, and the jade eye and jade key were passed down to the Jingjue lineage.
After it was passed down to the Queen of Jingjue, in addition to its original function, it was modified by the Queen into a key to unlock the underground palace!
[Ability: Imaginary Space, containing a 10x10x10 independent space. Once bound to a master, it can be used freely. Note that living beings cannot be stored inside!]
……
"It was actually this!"
Because it hasn't been long, Qin Yun is quite clear about the origin of this ancient jade.
About a month ago, this was something a fat man named Wang Kaixuan sold to me.
Judging from their accent, they're from Shuntian Prefecture, but I don't know if they're a native of the capital or from Langfang.
Because his comrade was retiring, he wanted to treat him to a decent meal, but due to his own financial difficulties, he had no choice but to sell this family heirloom.
However, the prices offered by Panjiayuan and Liulichang were too high, so in a fit of anger, Wang Kaixuan took the high-speed train to Tianjin to try his luck.
After going around in circles, he finally found the Silent Shop.
Unlike the antique dealers in the capital, Qin Yun didn't deliberately rip him off, out of a sense of kinship, even though all's fair in the world of antiques and calligraphy.
This ancient jade piece was eventually sold for 88,000 yuan.
When he left, Wang Kaixuan not only added him on WeChat, but also treated him to a meal.
Touching the ancient jade in his hand, Qin Yun's thoughts couldn't help but wander.
"I thought it was just someone with the same name, but now it seems that this triumph is the same one from Ghost Blows Out the Light!"
only……"
The timeline of Ghost Blows Out the Light is clearly set in the 1980s. If you calculate his age, Wang Kaixuan would be almost sixty at that time.
However, based on previous observations, the other party is at most thirty.
Is it because I deciphered the mystery of the womb that caused the butterfly effect, or is this world just a hodgepodge?
Since Wang Kaixuan is there, doesn't that mean Hu Bayi is also there? I wonder if the Nine Gates next door are there?
This world is truly becoming more and more interesting!
Before being bound to the system, all Qin Yun could do in the face of such a chaotic plot was to protect himself.
But now...
As the pinnacle of superhuman combat power, although he hasn't reached the point of not eating beef, it seems that he is not the one who should be worried!
