Chapter 82 Meeting the Master
Xia Xing'er watched helplessly as her senior brother spent 20 million silver coins to buy the pill. It would be a lie to say that she didn't feel bad.
She would regret it even more if she knew that the pill was taken for herself.
Box No. C2 on the third floor
Feng Qingyang took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and threw them to Ye Yichen with disgust.
Tsundere said, "Here, I bought this for my little apprentice. Give it to her, and don't tell her it was given to her by me."
After saying that, he turned his head and continued to look at the hall.
Ye Yichen knew that he was concerned about his junior sister, but he couldn't save face, so he saw through it but didn't say anything.
"Everyone, this is our finale item for today, called (Rejuvenation Pill)."
The waiter walked around the table holding a white jade porcelain vase in his hand.
Mengdie took the bottle from the waiter and opened it gently. Instantly, the fragrance of medicine filled the entire Treasure Pavilion, making everyone present feel lighter.
At this time, Mengdie opened her red lips and said, "How about this medicine? I think I don't need to say more!
This pill was passed down from its owner's ancestors. It's said that as long as a person is still breathing, taking this pill will bring them back to life. It's similar in effect to a resurrection pill, but even more potent. The starting price is one million taels of silver, with each bid increment of no less than one hundred thousand. Okay, Mengdie won't waste anyone's time anymore, the bidding will begin now!"
After Mengdie finished speaking, those who didn't get the resurrection pill started to get excited again.
Just smelling it makes you feel refreshed, and if you eat it...
"I never thought there would be a rejuvenation pill!"
"Now I have something to explain to the old man when I get back!"
…
"I'll give you 1.1 million!"
"My dear, why do you offer such a high price for such a medicine? I'll give you two million!"
"Three million!"
“…”
The people in the boxes on the second and third floors bid as much as they could, and soon the price reached 20 million.
Box No. 2 on the 3rd floor
Upon hearing this offer, the young man's face turned gloomy.
"Twenty-five million. I'm from the Southern Kingdom's royal family. I hope you can give me some face. I really need this elixir to save someone!"
Box No. C2 on the third floor
Ye Yichen heard the threat from the man in Box A2 and said to his master, "Master, this man is too shameless. He couldn't even win the bid, and he even brought up his status. To be able to sit in the box, that status is simple."
Feng Qingyang nodded in agreement. "It's true that he's a bit arrogant. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us. We can just watch the fun."
Ye Yichen said with a bit of regret: "If I had known earlier, I would have not participated in the competition and saved the money to shoot this. This rejuvenation pill is obviously more powerful than the temper rejuvenation pill. What a mistake."
Feng Qingyang felt a little regretful, but then he thought about it and felt relieved: "It's fate!"
No one took the words of the Southern Royal Family seriously, and everyone continued to bid.
"Twenty-six million!"
The people of the Southern Kingdom’s royal family did not expect that this person would be so ungrateful, and immediately felt a murderous intent in their hearts.
"Thirty million!"
This price has reached everyone's limit, and no one is willing to bid anymore.
Finally, Mengdie spoke up and said, "Congratulations to Box 2 on the third floor. This Rejuvenation Pill is now yours. Please prepare the money. Someone will deliver the treasure to the box later."
This concludes the auction.
When everyone dispersed, several forces ordered their guards to "keep a close eye on this person. If he leaves the Treasure Pavilion, report immediately." After that, they left the Treasure Pavilion.
The brother and sister in Box No. 2 on the third floor did not move. Within a moment, someone knocked on the box door.
Xia Xing'er thought that someone from the auction house must have come to settle the bill.
"Come in!"
Shopkeeper Wu stepped forward, followed by two attendants carrying a box.
"Miss, Master."
The brother and sister stood up and said, "Shopkeeper Wu!"
Shopkeeper Wu's face was full of smiles as he said politely, "I told you two, just call me Uncle Wu."
Everyone knows the principle of not hitting someone who smiles at you. Since Shopkeeper Wu wants to make friends with them, they will not refuse!
Xia Xing'er said politely, "It's our fault, Uncle Wu. Please don't blame us."
Shopkeeper Wu: "No, no!"
I thought to myself that you are the God of Wealth, how could I blame you? I should even make friends with you.
The commission from these two things alone is 3.1 million!
Thinking about the price I quoted to others before, I felt a little embarrassed. I hope these two people won’t blame me.
"This is the 'bloodstone' you two won today. Please examine it!"
Xia Xing'er reached out to take it, and asked in her heart: "Jiujiu, see if this is it?"
It’s not that she doesn’t trust the Treasure Pavilion, but it’s better to be safe than sorry!
Jiujiu said excitedly: "Yes, can Xing'er give it to me?"
Xia Xing'er didn't reply and just closed the box.
"That's right, thank you Uncle Wu!"
Shopkeeper Wu signaled the servant behind him to open the box on the ground, which contained silver bills and even gold bills.
"The two items were auctioned for a total of 31 million taels of silver. After deducting the handling fee of 3.1 million and the bloodstone's 910,000, the remaining amount was 26.99 million taels of silver."
"Here are ten million silver notes and one million nine hundred and ninety thousand gold notes. Please count them to see if they are correct."
There was no need to count, Xia Xing'er just used her mental power to scan and knew it was correct.
"I believe Uncle Wu, thank you Uncle Wu!"
When Shopkeeper Wu heard Xia Xing'er say this, he felt even happier. Who doesn't like to be trusted?
What's more, they just met today and have only met twice.
The brother and sister said goodbye to Manager Wu and left the Treasure Pavilion.
Shopkeeper Wu also told him the location of his home and kept telling Xia Xing'er to come to him if she found anything good again.
Xia Xing'er walked in front and Xia Qingyu walked behind, and the two came out from the back door of the Treasure Pavilion.
He ran into Ye Yichen who had been waiting for Xia Xinger.
Ye Yichen sighed in his heart, it seemed that he really did not hear wrong, nor did he make a wrong judgment, the junior sister took the back door.
Thinking of his master waiting at the front door, he once again gave himself a thumbs up in his heart, thinking that he was still smarter.
"Junior sister, why do you see that your senior brother can't speak and is mute?"
Xia Xing'er looked at her senior brother Feng Qingjiuyue in front of her with tears in her eyes.
This is her senior brother, who dotes on her like his own sister.
Whenever she got into trouble in Meishan, it was her senior brother who took the blame and received the punishment for her.
In her previous life, her master learned of her death and took crazy revenge on Helian Zhi and Ye Qingyu.
The final outcome was the destruction of the entire sect.
His eldest brother had his hands and feet chopped off and was turned into a human pig and placed in the backyard of the general's mansion.
After her rebirth, it’s not that she didn’t think about contacting her masters, but she didn’t know how to treat them. She didn’t want the events of her previous life to happen again, so she thought staying away from them would be good for them. However, she didn’t expect her senior brother to suddenly appear in front of her.
When she heard the eldest brother's voice in the Treasure Pavilion before, she could still deceive herself and say that she must have been hallucinating because she missed them too much.
Now that the living senior brother was right in front of her, she could no longer suppress her emotions and threw herself directly into Ye Yichen's arms.
"Big Brother, Xing'er misses you so much."
Ye Yichen listened to his junior sister's crying voice, hugged her back with heartache, and patted her back gently.
"Okay, stop crying. You're already an adult, and you're still crying. Aren't you ashamed?"
Xia Xing'er came out of Ye Yichen's arms, wiped her tears, and said cunningly: "Humph, I didn't cry! It's just that the wind was too strong and something got into my eyes. Senior Brother must have seen it wrong."
Ye Yichen looked at her with a smile. Fortunately, she didn't lose weight and her complexion looked good.
"Yes, yes, yes, our Xing'er definitely didn't cry. There must be something wrong with Brother's eyes. He must have seen it wrong."
Xia Xing'er: "That's right. By the way, Big Brother, why are you here? Who did you come with?"
Ye Yichen also thought of his master at this time, and pulled Xia Xing'er towards the front door of the Treasure Pavilion.
"I almost forgot about Master. He's right in front of the Treasure Pavilion. Come on, I'll take you there."
When Xia Xing'er heard the eldest brother say that her master had also come, she felt even more upset.
Thinking of that cute and arrogant old man, who sacrificed the entire sect in order to avenge his beloved little disciple.
He was also killed by Helian Zhi who dug out his heart.
I don’t know if he regretted what he did at the moment of his death, or if he felt it was not worth it.
She was a little afraid to see him at this moment. After she came down the mountain, except for sending a letter to her master when she was about to get married, she had not written another letter for more than three years. She didn't know if he was still angry with her.
But now I really want to see him, I really miss him.
When the brother and sister arrived at the front door of the Treasure Pavilion, they saw Feng Qingyang looking hard into the door of the Treasure Pavilion, not missing anyone entering or leaving the Treasure Pavilion, for fear of missing anything.
Xia Xing'er knew that her master was waiting for her, afraid that she would miss her most beloved little disciple if she was not paying attention.
Among the three disciples, the master liked me the most. Every time I made a mistake, he would let me off lightly. He was reluctant to punish me, so he punished the eldest brother instead.
He spoiled himself and became the little bully of Meishan.
No one from the several sects on Meishan dared to mess with her.
He dotes on her more than his own father.
Xia Xing'er could no longer hold back her longing for Feng Qingyang and threw herself directly into his arms.
"Master,"
Feng Qingyang was still staring at the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion when he suddenly felt a warm and familiar body in his arms. That familiar voice, tinged with tears and endless longing, reached his ears: "Master, I miss you so much."
Feng Qingyang's body shook slightly, and then his hands, covered with traces of time, gently stroked Xia Xing'er's back, as if to confirm that this was not an illusion.
His eyes turned from sharp to gentle, the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, tears flashed in his eyes, but he tried hard not to let them fall.
He patted Xia Xing'er's back gently, his voice choked with sobs, and said stubbornly, "Huh, you still remember having a master? I thought you had forgotten me, your master, a long time ago."
Xia Xing'er came out of her master's arms and said cunningly: "No way, I have been thinking about you all the time."
As she spoke, she blinked deliberately, trying to prove her innocence and sincerity with her big watery eyes.
Feng Qingyang looked at her like this, and a helpless smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but his heart was warm.
He flicked Xia Xing'er's forehead lightly and said in a feigned anger, "Look at you, little brat, you've even learned to lie. However, this time, I, your teacher, will be magnanimous and forgive you."
After saying that, he did not forget to rub Xia Xing'er's hair lovingly. The scene was warm and harmonious.
Xia Qingyu looked at Xia Xing'er in front of her. She had never seen such a little sister before.
She seemed to have never shown such a childish mentality in front of them.
She has never acted like a spoiled brat in front of them. Ever since her younger sister came home, she has always been steady and reliable...
It turned out that his little sister also knew how to act like a spoiled child. Looking at the doting in the eyes of her master and senior brothers, he suddenly felt that he, the third brother, was too incompetent.
Xia Xing'er held her master in one hand and her senior brother in the other and came to Xia Qingyu.
"Third brother, let me introduce you. This handsome uncle is my master Feng Qingyang, and this humble young man is my senior brother Ye Yichen."
Xia Xing'er then introduced him to Feng Qingyang and Ye Yichen: "Master, Senior Brother, this is my third brother, a biological brother, from the same mother!"
Ye Yichen took them to a small courtyard in the city.
"Junior Sister, this courtyard is where Master and I will temporarily live."
Xia Xing'er looked at the small courtyard with entrances and exits, and saw that the ground was paved with bluestone.
In a corner of the yard, a stone table and several stone benches look particularly elegant.
The sunlight shines through the sparse clouds, dappling onto the yard, adding a touch of warmth to the quiet space.
A small bird with colorful feathers was strolling leisurely in the yard, occasionally lowering its head to peck at the broken rice on the ground.
Although this courtyard is not big, it is full of the breath of life and the beauty of tranquility, which makes Xia Xing'er think of Master Meishan's courtyard involuntarily.
The four of them sat on a stone bench in the yard. Ye Yichen asked, "Junior Sister, why are you two here? Where are the others at home?"
Xia Xing'er smiled and recounted the whole story.
Feng Qingyang and Ye Yichen knew that their little disciple/junior sister had not suffered and was living well. He felt relieved when he saw that she did not seem to be faking it.
He knew the abilities of his little disciple. As long as she didn't want others to bully her, no one could do anything to her, and it would be others who would suffer the loss.
I’m afraid she will sacrifice herself for others!
If Xia Xing'er knew what her master was thinking, she would definitely say that her master understood her. She died such a miserable death in her previous life because she had wronged herself for others.
Ye Yichen handed Xia Xing'er the resurrection pill that he had spent 20 million to buy.
"This is what Master took and is giving it to you!"
Xia Xing'er and Xia Qingyu looked at each other, speechless!
Seeing Xia Xing'er not taking the box, Ye Yichen looked a little strange and asked in confusion, "Junior Sister, you didn't even open it to take a look. Master spent a full 20 million taels of silver to buy this."
Xia Xing'er suddenly felt that the more than 20 million yuan she earned was not worth much.
What belongs to the master is hers, she has the elixir, twenty million, and she just gave it away to someone else for free.
But she couldn't say, "I was also at the auction, I know what the items are, I like them very much, Master, thank you, Senior Brother!"
Feng Qingyang snorted coldly: "I'm not doing this for you, I just have too much money to spend!"
Xia Xing'er looked at her with amusement. Her master was still so lovable, with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
"Okay, okay, Master doesn't care about me. Master just has too much money."
Xia Xing'er stretched out her hand, "Then Master, give me some more, and I'll help you spend it."
