The old lady pretended to cough twice and covered her face to hide her embarrassment.
"Tongtong, do you really want to take a picture of this woman?"
"Grandma, I feel this woman has a great background. Buy her back and study her."
Jun Shutong showed a harmless smile. People who didn't know her would just think that this was a little girl playing around, and her parents were indulging her in her mischief.
Seeing that her granddaughter was determined to take a picture of the nine-tailed white fox, the old lady did not try to stop her. She was not someone who was reluctant to part with thousands of gold coins, but was worried about her granddaughter's safety.
God knows if this nine-tailed white fox will cause trouble if I buy it back?
I don’t even know if this seemingly weak woman can master the legendary magic?
Forget it, since the auction house can restrain her, the Jun family can't let her cause trouble either. In short, just keep a close eye on her.
In order to avoid complications, Jun Shutong quickly raised the price.
"Four thousand seven hundred."
The auctioneer below was very excited. Just now, he had thought that this item would fail to sell, and his commission would be much less. Now that there was a sudden turn of events and someone was willing to continue to bid, he couldn't help but raise his voice:
"Is there a higher price than 4,700?"
"Four thousand seven hundred times."
"Four thousand seven hundred and two times."
"Four thousand seven hundred and three times."
"make a deal."
"Today's auction is over. Those interested can come back on the 15th of next month."
Mission accomplished, the auctioneer ended today's auction with a simple sentence.
The grandfather and grandson followed the guards to the backstage and saw the woman curled up in the iron cage.
Oh no, it’s a nine-tailed white fox.
She still looked at everyone outside the iron cage with that curious and inquiring look.
Like a country kid seeing the world for the first time, he is curious about everything.
It transformed into the appearance of a human woman, about thirteen or fourteen years old.
"Madam, would you like to take the cage with you, or take her away alone?"
The auction house servant pointed at the iron cage and asked the old lady for her opinion.
If you take the cage with you, the organizer will escort it for free. If you only take one person with you, they will not escort you.
"Open the cage and let her out. Let her go with us."
"OK."
"Come out and go home with your master."
The servant waved towards the iron cage, signaling the woman to come out.
The woman looked at the servant, then looked at everyone else, still huddled in the corner, motionless.
"This... Old Madam, look, she won't come out. Why don't you take the cage back with you?"
The things had already been sold, and the servant didn't want her to delay his get off work, so he simply asked someone to take the cage away.
Jun Shutong rummaged in his pocket, took out a braised chicken leg, and reached into the iron cage.
"Sister, come out quickly, I'll give you some chicken legs."
The woman sniffed with her beautiful nose, her pretty eyes suddenly widened, and she crawled towards the exit of the iron cage.
"Sister, come out quickly, I'll give you some chicken legs."
Jun Shutong retreated inconspicuously until the woman climbed out of the iron cage.
As soon as she crawled out, the woman seemed to realize something was wrong and wanted to turn around and crawl back, but the servant quickly closed the iron cage.
"Sister, here you go, eat it quickly!"
The woman stared at the chicken leg and hesitated for a second, then quickly snatched the chicken leg from the little hand and put it into her mouth.
The servant's eyes were wide open, and he was surprised by one thing after another today.
First, the item almost failed to sell, and then the enthusiasm that had been finally aroused suddenly died down for some reason. And just now, he clearly saw that the little girl's pocket could only fit one small hand, but she took out a big chicken drumstick.
All of this was so unreasonable and beyond his understanding.
And this woman, when the slave-catching team bought her, they put all the delicious food and drinks in front of her, but the woman just wouldn't eat a single bite.
It would rather starve than eat, but why did it wolf down the chicken leg given by the little girl today?
I can’t figure it out, I really can’t figure it out.
The woman ate up the chicken leg in a few bites, leaving only a bare bone in her hand.
"Sister, come home with me and I'll give you more chicken legs, okay?"
The woman heard more chicken legs and nodded unconsciously as if she understood.
Jun Shutong walked up to her, took her hand, and walked outside. The woman did not resist at all and followed her obediently.
The servant behind him pinched his thigh and it hurt so much that he hissed. After making sure that he was not dreaming, he packed up and prepared to go home.
"Tongtong, how are you going to place her?"
"Grandmother, this sister is so pitiful. She's been locked up in a cage. She must be starving and sleep deprived. Can we ask an imperial physician to see her first?"
The old lady looked helplessly at the nine-tailed white fox sitting next to her, hugging her granddaughter's arm tightly.
How can this look like a fox at all?
Besides looking like a frightened little girl, she looks like a mentally retarded person with a brain injury.
Yes, it's just mentally retarded, almost drooling.
"Take her home and place her in my courtyard first, then ask an imperial physician to examine her. What do you think, Grandmother?"
"Okay, you can do whatever you want."
"However, we need to have someone keep an eye on her movements at all times. After all, this thing has unknown origins, and who knows if it will hurt anyone."
The old lady felt that she had hinted clearly enough and her granddaughter would definitely understand.
But Jun Shutong didn't understand anything. She didn't realize what her grandmother meant at all.
At this time, she was already bargaining with the system about purchasing the potion.
"Why don't you just go and rob? One Akechi Pill costs twenty crystals."
