It turned out that all the buyers who had read the secret manual were defeated and said they could not understand it.

Before purchasing, the blood talisman was used, so no one dared to fake it.

It was fine if one person couldn't understand, but dozens of people were defeated, including even the famous monk Qi Sea Realm.

In this way, the so-called secrets in their hands have become a joke.

After all, everyone who practices Martial Arts knows that no matter how profound the secret manual is, it is impossible not to understand it. The essentials of martial arts must be thoroughly explained in the secret manual. If not, how can it be recorded and passed on to the latter.

What's more, even the Qi Sea Realm monks can't understand the secret manual. It can only be said to be a child's doodle, unconstrained and only worth a glance.

Xu Yi Originally had no intention of entangled here, but suddenly he heard the word "tomb robbing" and became interested.

He never thought that there was such a thing as tomb robbing in this world, but an iron-like impulse that was poured out by later generations of online novels suddenly burst out in his mind. What came out of the tomb must be something good.

Therefore, he listened patiently to the end.

After hearing this, his enthusiasm was almost dampened. After all, Qi Sea Realm warriors couldn't study things thoroughly, and I'm afraid I couldn't do anything about it.

Just as he was about to move away, he was unwilling to give in, "After all, it was dug out of Ancient Tomb, so why not take a look?"

At that moment, he moved closer, pointed to the black book in front of the stall, and said, "Boy, can you show me this book?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he said these words, the air within a radius of three feet suddenly became solemn, and everyone looked towards him, as if they were looking at the freak.

The angry young men and strong men jumped up and surrounded him as if struck by lightning.

Almost each of them held half of the secret book and handed it to him.

"I don't have a blood talisman, are you two prepared?"

Xu Yi heard the explanation just now, so he knows the rules.

"No, no, no, you have a look. If you like it, make a price and take it away?"

The strong man had a flattering smile on his face and was full of enthusiasm, but he was cursing in his heart, "Bullshit blood talisman. I've lost all my fucking fortune just for this crappy book. How can I afford to buy a blood talisman?"

Xu Yi took it and was about to look through it when the strong man kicked the young man and said, "Stand up the corpse with a pestle. Why don't you hurry up and get a stool for the guest officer?"

The young man glared at him, quickly took out a few pieces of wood from the package, quickly built a chair, and moved it to Xu Yi.

Xu Yi is welcome, sit down and read quietly.

The secret book is very thick, with more than ten pages, but the Overlord Qi Art obtained by Xu Yi is only a few hundred words long.

The tentacles are neither paper nor silk, with moderate hardness and softness, indicating that they are made of special materials.

There is no writing on the cover, and when you open the title page, there is no writing. There is only a strange mark printed in the middle of the book, an extremely delicate golden abacus.

Xu Yi was even more curious. He continued to turn back, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He was flipping through the book faster and faster, until he was halfway through the book, and then the speed slowed down. Sometimes he knitted his eyebrows and sometimes frowned. This reading actually lasted an hour.

Suddenly, Xu Yi closed the book and said, "Make a price, I want this book."

Wow!

There seemed to be a strong wind in the whole place, and countless discussions broke out.

"One hundred gold, you take one hundred gold!"

The short-haired young man jumped up, his face beaming with joy.

"What a hundred gold, what the hell!"

The strong man snatched the book away with his hands. He changed his enthusiasm and said sternly, "You must have heard the gossip about the origin of this book. You should know how much my brothers suffered for this book. It's a pity that ordinary people don't know the goods and treat pearls like stones., I met an expert who knows the goods today, how can I let the treasure be covered in dust? The price is one thousand five hundred gold. You should also know that the previous asking price was two thousand gold. It was only because of your knowledge of the goods that I was willing to part with five hundred gold in one breath. I wonder what you think?"

Xu Yi was wearing a bamboo hat. The strong man could not see Xu Yi's facial expressions while reading. However, based on the length of time Xu Yi spent reading, he guessed that this person understood what was written in the book. After waiting for many days, the big fish finally came. There is no reason why a lion should not open its mouth.

As soon as the strong man spoke, everyone around him held their breath, waiting for Xu Yi's reply, wanting to see how this good show would end.

Xu Yi did not answer, but stretched out a finger.

"One thousand gold? No, how can you bargain like this? It's only a third of the price. Well, depending on your sincerity, I'll give you a little more, one thousand four hundred gold. This is already a real bargain."

The strong man's face was full of sincerity and he stared at Xu Yi, but all he could see was a black veil.

"You misunderstood, I said one hundred gold!"

Xu Yi said lightly.

"What, a hundred gold pieces, are you kidding? The treasure hunter found it on my head, Mr. Guo!"

The strong man seemed to have his tail stepped on, and he walked around in circles and shouted, "If you want to buy, buy it, if you don't want to buy it, leave. Don't come to amuse me, Guo!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yi turned around and left without saying a word.

He even guessed that if he couldn't walk ten steps, the person would definitely stop him.

One step, two steps...

After just two steps, the short-haired young man couldn't bear it anymore. He grabbed Xu Yi and said, "My lord, please don't be anxious. Let's discuss it carefully and then discuss it carefully."

Xu Yi said categorically, "There is nothing to discuss. One hundred gold. If you want to sell it, I will sell it. If you don't want to sell it, I will leave. Don't think that because I have been reading the book for a long time, you think you can rip it off. To be honest, I read it for a long time., I didn't understand that this book was about how to practice cultivation. I just felt that the method of drawing a circle described in it seemed to be worth exploring. You guys want to sell this idle book at a sky-high price. Is it me who amuses you, or you guys amuse me!"

"Forget it, forget it, I won't bargain with you anymore, five hundred gold, you take the five hundred gold right away." The strong man looked pained.

He believed that Xu Yi had figured it out, but since they didn't admit it, he didn't do anything.

The crux of the problem is that this shabby book has been sitting around for several months, and except for a period of popularity, no one has paid attention to it for more than a month.

The most terrible thing is that this so-called secret book has become useless. If you throw it away, you can't sell it. It drags the two of them here in vain. Now it's easy for someone to offer a price, and both of them are determined to make this deal happen.

"Ninety-nine gold!"

Xu Yi made a bid again, but this time he copied the method used to deal with Jiang Shaohuan.

He was confident. First, he had just listened to other people's stories, and he knew the situation of the two people in front of him. Second, he was confident that not many people could understand this book except him.

In other words, he is the only buyer of this book, but the two people opposite him have to sell it.

If he Xu can't win such a business at a low price, he may be unjustly accused of a bunch of nicknames given to him by Yuan Qinghua behind his back.

"How come you don't increase the price, but instead reduce the money? How can this make sense?"

The strong man turned red with anger.

"This is your punishment for being greedy and uncomplaining!"

"How can there be such a reason? You can't bargain like this. Two hundred gold, two hundred gold, I sold it. Our brothers' capital is more than this amount. You have to let us get our money back."
