"Why did you choose this?! This one looks so ordinary! I feel like all the others look real, but this brush looks the most like a fake."
"Really? I'm not going to lie. My family makes brushes. Judging by the color of this brush, it looks like it was just made and put on sale not long ago... This shop owner is really..."
"I also feel that any artifact would be more valuable than this. It seems the host's taste is not very good..."
The stall owner's voice became a little softer.
"You can choose this one." As he said that, he handed the brush to Gu Xingmiao.
Gu Xingmiao took the brush with both hands and said in a serious voice, "Thank you."
The stall owner was even more speechless, and asked again, "Are you sure you want this pen?"
"It seems even the stall owner couldn't stand it anymore, haha, it looks like this is really a fake—"
"This reminder is really obvious. The anchor is so stupid. I can't stand it."
"The host is really stubborn. He insisted on choosing a useless brush. What's the value of a brush? That little golden dragon looks more useful than a brush."
"I'm sure." Gu Xingmiao uttered the three words very clearly.
"Why?" the stall owner couldn't help but ask, his tone higher than before.
Gu Xingmiao raised his eyelids and looked over: "Because this is the only one that is likely to be a fake."
"???"
“???”
“????”
Everyone had big question marks in their little heads.
Even the stall owner was stunned and seemed to fall silent.
This reason...
It's really more outrageous than I imagined.
Gu Xingmiao said calmly: "Is there a problem?"
“…No problem.” The stall owner remained silent.
Not only was he silent, but the other stall owners around him were also silent.
They encountered people who bought genuine goods but accidentally bought fakes, but they also encountered people who bought genuine goods occasionally. However, they had never encountered such a situation.
I want this thing because I know it is the only fake one among them.
“…”
“…”
"How did you know that?" The indifference in the stall owner's tone finally disappeared completely, and he asked in confusion.
Gu Xingmiao said sincerely: "A feeling."
Is she saying that she just feels that this brush is different from other cultural relics? She can even rely on fate to speak.
I just feel that I have a connection with this pen.
"If the old items we get can become real in the future world, I feel that Gu Xingmiao should take the other artifacts the most. Those artifacts seem to be powerful even if they become old items—"
"Yeah, what can you do with this brush? Write? Before you even start writing, the pollution starts attacking you. It's so weak."
"No, no, no, no brush, sister, please don't..."
"You're amazing. Since you chose this, it means you're destined to have it. You can take this pen," the man said, but he paused before continuing, "I can give you another genuine one."
Gu Xingmiao's eyes were filled with emotion, and she opened her lips slightly: "Why?"
For what purpose?
All gestures of goodwill and all gifts are secretly priced.
Gu Xingmiao didn't think that the other party wanted to give it to him because of his personal charm, unless he had loaded some kind of charm system. However, after arriving in the future world, he didn't even hear the sound of the system being broken.
"Because you deserve it," the man said.
Gu Xingmiao raised his head suddenly: "What do you want me to do?"
She was not surprised by what the other person said, but still insisted on her original idea: "What do you want?"
The man's eyes flickered slightly, and he just looked into the distance: "I just need you to help me find something."
Gu Xingmiao still looked at the man quietly.
Waiting for what he didn't finish saying.
"This thing isn't hard to find." He pulled out a strange stone from his bosom. "This stone can help you sense where the thing I'm looking for is. Take it with you. If you ever find the thing I asked you to sense, just help me see if it's doing well."
Gu Xingmiao keenly captured the key words.
Are you living well?
Human? Animal? Ghost?
It's nothing more than speculation between different species, which is really a matter of experience.
"It's not a person, it's an animal."
Gu Xingmiao suddenly had a bad feeling: "Yellow?"
The man was slightly surprised: "You know it? Or did you encounter it?"
Gu Xingmiao: "...I guess I saw it."
Not only did they meet, but Weasel No. 2 seemed to have had a fight with Little Yellow, and now both guys are missing.
Did it meet its owner?
But when Gu Xingmiao saw the man like this, she felt that he was not the master of Weasel No. 2. However, she did not dare to easily expose their hostility with Weasel No. 2, so she just nodded with an ambiguous meaning.
...Did you see the other person carrying a blue stone at that time?
I don’t seem to see it.
But it might be hanging outside that loose robe. Who would have thought that this was a weasel with an owner? Isn't it said that only when one becomes a human can one be considered an immortal?
Gu Xingmiao couldn't stop muttering in his heart.
"It stole my treasure. You just need to find it and take it back. It's okay if you don't have to give it back to me. I won't leave it to that dead weasel anyway." The man gritted his teeth and was obviously suppressing his anger.
"As for how to test whether you have done so... I believe you are a person of integrity."
Gu Xingmiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Make enemies, it’s good to make enemies.
But for repaying a favor, this thing is a bit too heavy to hold in my hand, so I feel more at ease like this for now.
"I will help you get revenge." Gu Xingmiao said solemnly. Although she did not guarantee that she was honest, she could still do it for such a thing.
It should be said that revenge has been taken.
Even if we don't meet again later, it won't be considered a breach of contract.
In this case, the cultural relics that I got...aren't they a little too simple?
"...Since you want to seek revenge on that weasel, why don't you do it yourself, but instead look for someone who is destined to do it?" Gu Xingmiao couldn't help but ask.
The man was silent.
“Not everyone has the opportunity to see Wong Tai Sin, even the Wong Tai Sin who has not yet become an immortal.”
"I've only seen it once, just that once...but it stole a lot of my treasures! The most important one must be spit out!" The man's voice was even colder than before.
If it is important, why don't you return it after you find it? It's okay to give it to yourself.
Gu Xingmiao felt that there were doubts everywhere.
Don't even know where to start sorting it out.
