Swordsman the Wanderer
Ch 215's. Greed Gu Feng
Furthermore, the owner of the Ancient Peak Appraisal Firm continued to assess the jade items and bottles on the table. When it came to that small stalk plant, Gu Feng's facial expression turned solemn. A second later, he exclaimed, “This looks like the plant they call the king of a thousand herbs, Nine Leaf Purple Grass! After all, this was a trunk that was over a thousand years old!"
The three young men and the young woman gasped in shock at Gu Feng's evaluation.
Yang Ying's facial expression remained calm as if he already knew, “ Boss Gu Feng's vision was very good. Indeed, this was the King of a Thousand Plants, the Nine Leaves Purple Grass. My main goal here this time is to ask Boss Gu Feng to help me determine the true age of this Nine Leaf Purple Grass."
Gu Feng was astonished, then started to carefully inspect the little plant. A moment later, he said, "This Nine Leaf Purple Grass should be one thousand three hundred years old."
Suddenly, Xiao Tian could be heard in the hall at this moment, "Sister, that potion looks really good." In the end, he even gulped his saliva and sounded clearly, his eyes fixedly staring at the small stalk of plant in the middle of the hall that was emitting that alluring gentle light.
Xiao Tian's voice was too sudden and attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.
Yang Ying's soft brows slightly furrowed, a sense of disdain appeared in his eyes, "Where did this wild child come from, so rude and ignorant of ethics!"
Xiao Tian's feet were barefoot and although his clothes looked good, but the materials were made with ordinary clothes. For noble families and disciples of large families like Yang Ying, they hated lowly commoners the most like this.
The simple clothes of Zhang En, Zhao Shu, and Zhang Fu did not go unnoticed either.
The young man who was beside Yang Ying, Lin Wu, looked towards Xiao Tian, saying, “Enak? This kind of rare herb is not something that a lowly commoner like you can afford to eat. Being able to breathe air in the presence of this potion is worth your ten lucky lives! Let me tell you, your hundred lives cannot even be compared to this one leaf of Nine Leaf Purple Grass!"
Lin Wu puffed his chest arrogantly, staring at Zhang En, Zhao Shu, Zhang Fu, and Xiao Tian.
Zhang En remained calm as usual, "Really?"
Another young man from the group named Qin Guo spoke this time, “Didn't you just say that you want to judge a treasure? Since we're done with our treasure, now is your turn. Come on, take out the so-called treasure you have and let Boss Gu Feng evaluate it, who knows, maybe there really is something good about you! " The word 'treasure' was heavily emphasized by Qin Gui, mixed with obvious-sounding ridicule.
It was clear that, in his eyes, the treasures Zhang En possessed were ordinary and only trash treasures.
A flash of anger flickered in Zhao Shu's eyes and Zhang Fu heard the young man's words. The two were about to stand up, but Zhang En waved his hand, telling the two to remain calm. Zhang En did not speak. He remained seated at the same spot while taking out two potions from his Spatial Ring that he had gathered all those years ago in the Tiger Valley cave and placing them on the table in front of him.
The moment these two herbs he took out, the plant aura of the two herbs filled the entire vast hall with spiritual energy. The scent of this potion completely defeated the Nine Leaves Purple Grass stalks that Gu Feng had on his table.
Everyone present in the hall was dumbfounded, staring at the two herbs on the table that was in front of Zhang En. One of them was the Nine Leaf Purple Grass, but the color of the Nine Leaf Purple Grass was more brilliant, larger in size, even emitting a layer of purple halo.
After a moment of being dazed, a burning greed appeared in their eyes.
The boss of the Ancient Peak Appraisal Firm, Gu Feng, approached Zhang En's table in less than ten steps, his eyes never moving away from the two potions on the table, “This, the, this was a ten thousand year old Purple Nine Leaf Grass, and this was a Human-shaped Purple Blood Ginseng! ” Her voice trembled, barely believing what was in front of her.
“Violet Grass Nine Leaves ten thousand years old!”
“Vegetable Blood Ginseng human shaped!”
As the lightning shook Yang Ying's heart, Qin Guo, Lin Wu, and the other group's thoughts, the previous ridicule and humiliation disappeared completely. Their eyes stared hotly at the two potions placed on the table in front of Zhang En.
Gu Feng who was trembling with excitement, his hands trembled as he carefully held the Nine Leaves Purple Grass in one hand while the other hand held his magnifying glass, observing the Nine Leaves Purple Grass Zhang En. The more he observed, the heavier his breathing, the longer he held onto the elixir, the more astonishment on his face deepened.
It was because the longer he observed the Nine Leaf Purple Grass, the more he realized that it was actually much older than he had imagined.
After reaching ten thousand years, the Nine Leaves Purple Grass would emit a purple circle of light, that was the main reason why Gu Feng exclaimed that Zhang En's Nine Leaf Purple Grass was ten thousand years old at first glance.
But now, after a very careful evaluation, he discovered that this Nine Leaf Purple Grass was not ten thousand years old, but thirty thousand years old
No, rather, it was close to forty thousand years! The Nine Leaf Purple Grass that was close to forty thousand years old.
Gu Feng felt the weight of the Nine Leaves Purple Grass in his hand growing heavier with each second. He knew very well the implications of the forty thousand year old Nine Leaf Purple Grass, selling the Ancient Peak Appraisal Firm that had been in business for over a hundred years, including all the treasures within it, he still could not afford to buy this potion. The Nine Leaves Purple Grass was forty thousand years old.
Then, Gu Feng carefully picked up the Human-shaped Purple Blood Ginseng, carefully he also examined the herb. The result awakened another huge shockwave in his heart, this Human-shaped Blood Ginseng was also nearly forty thousand years old.
A quick glint of greed flickered in Gu Feng's eyes, but he hid it well, a friendly appearance without losing the slightest calm as he returned the Human-shaped Purple Blood Ginseng to the table in front of Zhang En. A bright smile was seen on Gu Feng's face as he asked Zhang En, “May I ask this young brother, where did you find this Nine Leaf Purple Grass and Human-shaped Purple Blood Ginseng? I have no other intentions, just curious. "
Although Gu Feng skillfully hid the glint of greed in his eyes, it did not escape Zhang En's attention. Pouting in his heart, Zhang En replied with an excuse, “Nine Leaves of Purple Grass and this Human-shaped Blood Ginseng, I found it recently in the Demon Beast Forest. Originally, I was planning to hunt some leopards inside the Demon Beast Forest, but who knows I will fall into the abyss and find this Nine Leaf Purple Grass and Human-shaped Blood Ginseng there.”
Gu Feng nodded, "You managed to get lucky from the disaster, it is Heaven's luck to you."
