Chapter 1795 That’s Really a Regret
Because there was still some distance, Gu Ning couldn't see it clearly, so he waited until he got closer to take a closer look.
When they got closer to the deserted courtyard, Gu Ning sensed a hint of evil spirit coming from the bottom of the well.
Gu Ning walked in, but decided not to explore what was at the bottom of the well for the time being. The most important thing now was to face the cultivator.
"Come out! You've been following me for so many days, but I haven't had a chance to take action. It's really hard for you." Before the cultivator appeared, Gu Ning spoke first, with a hint of mockery in his tone.
Since she had to face it anyway, there was no need for her to wait for him to show up. Moreover, she took the initiative to speak and took the dominant position. In terms of momentum, she had the advantage.
The cultivator in the dark was stunned when he heard this. He was a little surprised and a little suspicious. Was Gu Ning talking to him? The cultivator couldn't believe it. How could she, a mortal, have such great ability?
But the other party said that he had been following her for many days, which was true. During these days, he was the only one following her, and she didn't find anyone else following her.
But how did she discover herself?
"The person behind the wall five meters behind me is you. Come out and let us settle the matter for you damaging my car!" Seeing that the cultivator did not come out, Gu Ning guessed his thoughts and continued.
Now, without a doubt, the cultivator was sure that Gu Ning was talking about him, and was immediately shocked that she actually knew... Then, when she was in Qianling Mountain, she also recognized him...
Then, she knew Baili Zongyang and his sister, would it be possible that...
Cultivators have many doubts in their hearts, but these are not things that can be answered by themselves. If they want to know, they can only ask Gu Ning themselves.
Even though he was surprised that Gu Ning had discovered this a long time ago, he did not feel afraid of her. No matter how capable she was, she was just a mortal and could not be his opponent.
Then, the cultivator showed up, stepped into the yard, looked at Gu Ning with deep eyes, and asked directly: "How did you know that I damaged your car? How did you find out that I was following you?"
"My car door was broken, so of course I had to check the surveillance. Knowing it was you, what's so strange about that? And I found you around me from time to time, I don't believe it was a coincidence! Moreover, I have naturally sharp senses. I was followed for so long, so I could naturally feel it more or less. Since I was being followed, for my own safety, I naturally needed to follow up on the surveillance. Presumably, you have already investigated my identity! Then you should know that investigating a surveillance is not a difficult task for me." Gu Ning said. Of course, this was all nonsense, she had no intention of revealing her secrets.
Hearing this, the cultivator frowned. What Gu Ning said made sense, but he didn't believe it all.
"So, you came here on purpose to lure me here?" asked the cultivator.
"I didn't mean to lure you here. Why am I here? Do you think I'm full and have nothing to do? No, I haven't eaten yet. So, you think I'm hungry and have nothing to do, so I come here to have fun!" Gu Ning said, his words full of ridicule towards the cultivator.
"Then aren't you afraid of what I might do to you?" The cultivator looked at Gu Ning seriously and asked.
"You have investigated me, so you should know that I am not a weak woman who can't even tie a chicken. What's more, I am quite skilled in martial arts. So, why should I be afraid of you? Even if I can't beat you, can't I just jump away?" Gu Ning said sarcastically, with an arrogant look as if he didn't take the other party seriously.
Of course, this is all done for the other party to see, to make the other party feel that she does not know the other party's ability, so she despises the other party so much, which will make the other party despise her even more.
Yes, when the cultivator heard this, he felt that Gu Ning was being conceited, so he looked down on Gu Ning even more.
I am a cultivator, so isn't it easy for me to get a mortal?
However, the cultivator did not want to use force for the time being, but first talked to Gu Ning politely about the deal. If the issue could be resolved amicably, there would be no need to resort to force.
"I am willing to compensate you for damaging your car." said the cultivator.
"Oh! In that case, that couldn't be better." Gu Ning asked, pretending to be surprised, but he was not surprised at all in his heart, and he had guessed the cultivator's plan.
"Although it's just a lock that's broken, the car is not a cheap one after all, so replacing a lock will cost tens of thousands of dollars. Just give me ten thousand yuan. I don't know if you want to pay by mobile phone transfer or in cash!" Gu Ning said.
"Before I pay, I have another business to discuss with you." The cultivator said. She didn't care at all about the ten thousand yuan compensation. Let alone ten thousand, even if it was twenty or thirty thousand, as long as the transaction of "Jade Dragon Phoenix Cloud Pattern Bi" was successful, she would be willing to give it.
After all, the "Jade Dragon Phoenix and Cloud Pattern Bi" is worth 30 million.
"Oh! What business?" Gu Ning asked knowingly.
The cultivator did not beat around the bush and said directly: "I want the Jade Dragon Phoenix Cloud Patterned Bi that you bought from the Imperial Palace Museum. The Jade Dragon Phoenix Cloud Patterned Bi was originally a family heirloom, but it was later stolen by tomb robbers. I searched for a long time before I found it. I wanted to find a way to buy it, but before I could think of a way, you got there first. If you are willing to sell it to me, I am willing to pay an extra 10 million on top of the price you paid."
The family heirloom was of course all nonsense, just to win Gu Ning's sympathy.
"You want the Jade Dragon Phoenix and Cloud Pattern Bi! That's really a pity. I just bought it for someone and gave it to that person after the purchase." Gu Ning said with regret.
"What?" Upon hearing this, the cultivator's face suddenly changed. The first person he thought of was Baili Zongyang and his sister, because only cultivators could easily discover the secret of this "Jade Dragon Phoenix Cloud Patterned Bi".
Of course, it is also possible that it was spotted by antique lovers and then collected.
But who it was, only for Gu Ning could he know: "Who told you to buy it? That one!"
At this time, the cultivator did not think too much and did not doubt the truthfulness of Gu Ning's words.
"I don't know that person. He knew I had some connections in the Imperial Palace Museum, so he gave me 10 million and asked me to buy the Jade Dragon Phoenix and Cloud Patterned Bi. I can earn 10 million just by talking. I'm not a fool. I'd do well to make some money. It's just an antique anyway." Gu Ning said, expressing that he didn't know the other meanings of the Jade Dragon Phoenix and Cloud Patterned Bi.
