Beauty and the Bodyguard Chapter 1981

Chapter 1981: The antique market

“I don’t know …” Han Jingjing shook her head in confusion.”Do you know, Lin Yi bro?”

“I don’t know,” Lin Yi said faintly. He couldn’t tell a student he’d only known for a few days that he had Zhang Liju’s notes, so he asked,”If you don’t know, why would you buy a medicinal cauldron?”

“I can study it!” Han Jingjing said,”also, I’ve found a lot of information about alchemists on the internet. I want to do some research first!” Besides, I often go to the antique market, so maybe I can find a book on the cultivation method of an Alchemist …”

“If that’s the case, then you can do your research …” Lin Yi didn’t say anything. It seemed that han Jingjing had heard about alchemy from somewhere and was fascinated by it. She started researching alchemy, but she just didn’t know how to do it.

Of course, if it was so easy for her to become an Alchemist, then it would really be strange.

At that thought, Lin Yi put his suspicions aside. Not many normal people knew about pract.i.tioners and refiners, but those rich people who had hired pract.i.tioners as bodyguards would know about them. As for refiners, they would definitely know.

Therefore, it was normal for a rich girl like han Jingjing to have a cultivator as a bodyguard. It was not difficult to find out about the existence of alchemy Masters from the bodyguard’s mouth. It was just that she seemed to be very obsessed with it, and she had even applied for a related major in University.

“En, en!” “Lin Yi bro, you don’t like refining?” Han Jing Jing nodded heavily.

“I don’t know how to refine it even if I like it.” Lin Yi said faintly.

“Then when Jingjing learns how to make pills, she can teach Lin Yi bro, and we can do dual pract.i.tioning together!” Han Jing Jing said.

“Pfft … What? Dual cultivation?” Lin Yi coughed a couple of times-he’d been scared out of his wits.

“That’s right, isn’t cultivating and refining pills together a dual cultivation?” Han Jing Jing looked at Lin Yi, confused.

“…Alright, then once you’ve learned it, I’ll do dual cultivation with you.” Lin Yi didn’t want to waste time explaining to Jingjing-this girl must’ve been studying medicine and making elixirs from a young age, and she’d probably ask why if he explained too much to her.

“En, en, that’s great! Then, Lin Yi bro, it’s a deal!” Han Jingjing stretched out her little finger.

“Why?” Lin Yi frowned.

“Pinky swear!” “Only a pinky promise can guarantee that you’re not lying …” Han Jingjing said.

“Alright, alright, let’s pull the hook, alright!” Lin Yi saw that han Jingjing was going to go on and on, so he quickly interrupted her and beckoned her with his pinky. His mission was completed.

“You can’t change your mind for a hundred years!” Han Jing Jing said.

“No, can we go now?” Lin Yi said helplessly as he started the car.

“No, aren’t we going to the antique market now? I need to study how to make pills, so I need a cauldron. How am I supposed to teach you if I don’t study? Lin Yi bro, you’re going to support me, right?” Han Jingjing looked at Lin Yi pitifully, “We’ve already made a promise!”

Lin Yi looked at the time and saw that there was still some time before school ended. He nodded,”Alright, then let’s just walk around.”

Donghai’s antique market was located near the East Heaven Gate, and Lin Yi had never been there before. He could only rely on the GPS to lead him to one of the biggest antique markets in the entire province!

Because Donghai was a provincial city, the antique market in Donghai was much bigger than other cities. Lin Yi parked his car in the parking lot of the antique market and was asked for a parking fee of twenty Kuai. Lin Yi felt that he was being cheated!

This antique was really for the rich. Even the parking fee was more expensive than other places!

Fortunately, Lin Yi didn’t care about the money. After parking the car, he walked into the antique market with han Jingjing.

The antique market was huge. There were all kinds of things sold in it. There were all kinds of imitations and real ones. It was hard to buy the real ones unless you were an expert.

It was just that Lin Yi wasn’t interested in buying antiques. There were so many treasures in the tomb, but he didn’t take a single one with him, let alone spending money on these things.

The item that Han Jing Jing wanted to buy was a medicinal cauldron. There weren’t many of such items, and one usually had to rely on luck. However, there were many imitations. It was just that the materials used for these items were not much different from the real ones. They were either made of cast iron or made of pure copper. This was enough for a junior Alchemist.

The two came with a purpose. Lin Yi was just looking around, while han Jingjing was looking for medicinal cauldrons. The two walked through half the market before they finally found a stall that sold medicinal cauldrons.

“How much are you selling this cauldron for?” Han Jing Jing asked as she picked up a cast iron cauldron that looked similar.

“This was once used by the nation-protecting heavenly master of the Ming Dynasty, priest Zhang …” The seller looked at han Jingjing’s dress and knew that she was a rich girl. She probably didn’t know anything about antiques, so he started to Bluff her.

“Lin Yi bro, is this guy stupid? I asked him how much he wanted to sell it for, why did he say so many strange things?” Han Jing Jing said as she put down the cauldron.

“Eh? Little girl, how can you say that? who are you calling an idiot?” When the stall owner heard han Jingjing scold him, he was a little unhappy.

“Lin Yi bro, this guy’s not only stupid, he doesn’t know his place either. The things he’s selling are definitely not good, let’s go check out the other houses.” Han Jingjing turned around and prepared to leave.

“Wait, don’t go. I’m just introducing you to the origin of the medicinal cauldron. If you don’t want to hear it, let’s talk about the price …” The stall owner saw that han Jingjing was about to leave and immediately became a little anxious. He quickly called out to her.

“Lin Yi bro, let’s go.” Han Jing Jing was determined to leave.

Helpless, Lin Yi turned around and followed …

However, the two of them had not gone far when two burly men blocked their way.

“What are you guys doing?” Han Jing Jing looked at the two men in front of her warily.

“You want to leave after breaking the medicinal cauldron? It won’t be that easy!” One of the burly men said coldly.

They were the gangsters in this area. The merchants in the antique market paid them protection fees, so they naturally helped these people solve some problems. It was a win-win situation.

The stall owner was already p.i.s.sed off after getting scolded by han Jingjing, and now that he lost his business, he was even more p.i.s.sed off. He found two punks to teach Lin Yi and han Jingjing a lesson!

From the stall owner’s point of view, the two of them were dressed like students, and han Jingjing was dressed in branded goods. One look and he could tell that she was rich. It was naturally not difficult to squeeze some money out of them!
