Chapter 551: Dragon Bead
One thousand three hundred and fifty catties?
Everyone expressed their disbelief. Whoever said that seeing it with their own eyes is believing it?
Because it violates two natural common senses.
First, it is absolutely impossible for such a small iron ax to be so heavy!
Second, it is impossible for Xiao Ye to hold such a heavy iron ax in his hand as light as nothing.
In modern terms, it is unscientific.
But when things go wrong, there must be ghosts.
Let's weigh the weight of this Tianyue first.
In the current era, there is no scale that can weigh a thousand catties at once, and this is a battleship, not a cargo ship, and there is no scale at all.
But on the ship there is a large lever used to adjust the goods, which can be used as a balance. On the one hand, the sky ax is hoisted with ropes, and on the other hand, two hundred catties of grain bags are used as weights, and they are hung up one by one with big iron hooks.
After a total of seven bags of grain were hung up, the lever was slowly raised...
There is nothing wrong with the weight!
Then the problem was on Xiao Ye, so the big guy looked at Xiao Ye again, as if he had seen a ghost.
"Fake!" The little parrot said a foul word, expressing the big guy's heart.
But this should be a good thing, right?
Because no matter whether Xiao Ye is a man, a god, a monster, a monster or a ghost, it is all ours!
A burst of cheers erupted in the silence, from Ibrahimovic down, all the soldiers knelt on one knee, paying the highest respect in the army to Xiao Ye.
Just one word, take it!
Only Hengdu Saburo was unconvinced, staring at Xiao Ye's luck with his small eyes.
"Why are you dissatisfied with General Xiao Ye, Mr. Hengdu?" Zuoshan Saji asked.
"Dissatisfied!" Hengdu Saburo raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes.
"Then go and compete with him for strength." Fu Yan said with a smile.
"I can't compare to him, but I'm just not convinced!" Said Saburo Hengdu loudly.
Just so stubborn.
Just like Ling'er, after being stubborn to the sky, a big tortoise shell was sold for a sky-high price!
"Xiao Ye, come here, help me split this tortoise shell in half, one half belongs to me, and the other half belongs to Ling'er, if you spot Ang in the middle of the split, don't favor your elder sister Ling'er!" Xiao Chen called Xiao Ye over, Show him where to strike the ax by gesturing on the shell.
"Wait!" Ling'er came over and pulled Xiao Ye away.
"It's a high-five as an oath, so many people are watching, you little girl want to go back on your word!" Xiao Chen was furious.
"I'm not going back on my word, but brother, you have to explain it to me, why did you spend so much money on this piece of mine... Cough cough, my baby?" Ling'er needed an explanation.
"Yeah, Xiao Chen, there must be a reason for you to spend ten thousand taels of gold, right? If you don't make it clear, our brothers will not be at ease, and neither will the big guys. They will think you have lost your mind and gone crazy. You said that the big guys are following you to death, if you are crazy, who will dare to do things with you in the future?" Shangguan Qiji's words are reasonable.
The big guys also said that you should explain, boss, after all, this incident is too abnormal, we don't say it, but we are also muttering in our hearts.
"Oh? Is that so?" Xiao Chen glanced at everyone, "Then let me tell you?"
The big guys nodded again and again, talking and talking.
"Everyone, haven't you all heard of the dragon giving birth to nine sons?" Xiao Chen cleared his throat, adjusted his tone, assumed a learned attitude, and adopted the tone of a teaching speech.
This is a hypothetical question. The big guys naturally know that the dragon has nine sons, but I don't know what you mean by asking this question?
So nodding is not, shaking the head is not, or listen to you continue.
"The dragon has nine sons, and there is a dragon inside. Its skin is tough. It can be used to cover a drum. It can be hit with an iron hammer. It has been heard for hundreds of miles. This is the so-called drum. The emperor once gave me a poem. In the poem' The wind blows the drum, the mountains and rivers move, the flags of lightning flash, the sun and the moon are high. The drum in the song refers to the skin of the dragon, the drum of the veil!"
Xiao Chen paused for a while as he spoke, normally there should be applause here.
But the big guys were engrossed in listening, so they didn't applaud...
"The dragon has a long life, and can live up to 10,000 years old! It's almost like our Emperor Zhou... Hehehe, it has to shed its shell every thousand years, which is the big tortoise shell that we big guys saw. , the thousand-year-old tortoise shell has twenty-four ribs, which are born in response to the twenty-four solar terms in the sky, well, these are just one by one."
Xiao Chen was giving a lecture while teaching on the spot. The big guy followed his fingers to look, and he saw that there were twelve arm-thick ribs growing on both sides of the tortoise shell, adding up to twenty-four ribs. There is a bulge the size of a bowl.
"Here comes the key," Xiao Chen signaled the big guy to listen carefully, "At the end of the ribs, that is, inside these big bulges, twenty-four orbs will be born in accordance with the solar terms, and these orbs have absorbed the aura of the sun and the moon for thousands of years. It is a priceless treasure that is extremely cherished!"
ah? Everyone was shocked when they heard this remark, and there is such a thing?
Just heard that the old clam gave birth to beads, how could the old sea turtle still give birth to beads!
Don't say you have never seen it, but you have never heard of it.
real or fake?
"A brother asked, why has no one seen this kind of pearl before?" Xiao Chen looked at the big guy expectantly, waiting for someone to raise his hand to ask.
The big guy said who asked you!
But since the boss said so, he had to make fun of him stepping down. Ibrahimovic raised his hand high, "Why is that, boss?"
"Yeah, why?" Xiao Chen nodded gratifiedly, and asked himself, "Because every time the dragon takes off its tortoise shell, it will swallow all the orbs back into its stomach, so almost no one in the world has seen it, so how can it be?" A brother asked, is the orb in the tortoise shell still there? Yes, because of what, because it is complete..."
"There are so many reasons why, why don't you just smash it open? Wan Chun, the knife is here!" Shangguan Qiji listened, scratching his ears and cheeks, his heart itching unbearably. , See if there is any orb in it?
"I can't do it, my fat brother!" Xiao Chen hurriedly stopped, "If you cut down the orb with such a knife, is it mine or Linger's?"
"Get out of the way! Everyone who is watching the excitement, go away!" Ling'er came over and rudely pushed Shangguan Qiji away.
"Go away, fat man!" the little parrot yelled.
"Hey! Please go ahead!" Shangguan Qiji was not angry at all, he bowed back and smiled apologetically.
"Then why do you have to split it? Why don't we just dig out the beads?" Ling'er had already felt itchy, and pulled out the lancet.
"That's good." Xiao Chen originally wanted to make a fortune in a silent voice, but since he has already revealed it in public, he can simply dig it out, but Ling'er can't let Ling'er do it. This little girl is not stubborn if she breaks the orb with her frivolous hands. !
He ordered people to fetch some saws, and some of them found a few skilled ship repairers who were slightly older, and personally instructed them to walk slowly around the big bulge.
Don't worry, it must be slow and steady.
If any of you break Ben Boss' orb, I'm not joking, I'll throw you into the sea!
