Chapter 8 IQ, one of the criteria for judging strength
The night before the auction was extremely exciting.
In order to obtain the auction items, some people repeatedly counted the silver they brought and inquired about the existence of opponents;
In order to save the auction items, some people studied the loopholes of the auction and thought about sneaking in in disguise;
In order to destroy the auction items, some people discussed the destruction plan and discussed the escape strategy late at night.
No matter how magnificent and thrilling this night is, it cannot stop the passage of time.
When the first ray of sunlight in the early morning shines into every room, even if they are not in different positions, they can open their eyes at the same time, pick up their packages, and step into the same place.
——
Yuantu Town, auction.
Compared with the almost deserted environment yesterday, the entrance of the auction was now packed with people.
When Apple Xinshan jumped off the durian carriage, she immediately felt meaningful gazes coming from all directions.
Pingguo Xinshan sneered in her heart but didn't show it on her face. She turned her head to look at the carriage, pulled open the curtain, and carried Xu Ren'er down from the carriage.
As soon as Xu Ren'er appeared, Pingguo Xinshan clearly felt that those unfriendly looks instantly turned into surprise and shock.
So cute! How could such a furry creature exist in the world?!
Everyone sighed.
No one noticed, or rather, no one cared even if they noticed, that the coachman responsible for driving the durian carriage had quietly put the carriage in place, then hunched over and silently followed behind Apple Xinshan.
Apple Xinshan calmly greeted all kinds of gazes, walked slowly to the door of the auction with Xu Ren'er, and took out the invitation letter from her waist.
The person in charge of the inspection opened the invitation letter and glanced at it. After a while, his originally dark eyes turned green in an instant.
"This way, please."
After confirming that there was no problem with the invitation letter, one of the passion fruit guards immediately stepped forward to lead them.
The two people and the dog had not walked a few steps when they suddenly heard a noise from behind. Pingguo Xinshan and Xu Ren'er stopped at the same time and looked back.
I saw a young man who looked handsome being surrounded by a group of guards, all weapons pointed at him, forcing him to leave quickly.
"What's going on?"
Pingguo Xinshan asked the guard who was leading the way.
The guard smiled slightly and explained patiently:
"We passionfruits have a skill that allows us to use our eyes to scan and identify the authenticity of items. If the item is genuine, our eyes will glow green after checking it. If it is a fake, they will glow red.
The invitation letter for the man who was arrested must have been a counterfeit product. Our personnel discovered it, which led to this scene and forced him to leave."
Hearing this, Xu Ren'er couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
The defense is so cautious and tight, I wonder if Mo Youli can successfully sneak in?
The little farce ended quickly, and Apple Xinshan continued to follow the person leading the way with a dull look on her face.
After walking a short distance, they finally came to a closed mahogany gate.
The agent did not push the door open immediately. Instead, he handed Apple Xinshan three badges, which, as expected, were engraved with passion fruit patterns.
"Put it on you, and no one will be able to see your true identity."
The guard bent down, bowed with one hand, smiled slightly, and continued, "Protecting the personal privacy of our guests is our primary responsibility."
Apple Xinshan nodded to show that she understood.
Indeed, most of those who can come to this auction are dignitaries from prominent families, and few of these people like to expose themselves in public.
but……
There was a hint of sarcasm in Apple Xinshan's eyes. Even if she didn't want to be exposed at this auction, almost all the money would have been spent.
After everyone put on their badges, the guide opened the door. The first thing that came into view was the magnificent hall, followed by layers of luxurious and soft-looking seats, which were arranged in a staircase format.
Most of these seats were empty, but some were occupied.
Xu Ren'er noticed that each of the people sitting in the seats had the same passion fruit appearance, with no essential difference between them.
At the bottom of the stairs is a platform covered with a dark purple curtain, and you can't see what's behind the curtain.
Xu Ren'er guessed that this platform should be where the auction items will be displayed later.
Faced with this situation, she felt a little strange:
Isn't it a rule that everyone in town must maintain human form? Why are they all in fruit form? Furthermore, aren't the organizers of this auction the Passion Fruit Clan? Why are all the guests seated preparing to auction items actually members of the Passion Fruit Clan?
"Where shall we sit?"
Apple Xinshan looked around and asked calmly.
As soon as she opened her mouth, Xu Ren'er was stunned. Why did her voice sound so mechanical and hoarse?
She couldn't help but look up at Pingguo Xinshan, and then she was stunned.
The Apple Xinshan in front of him was like a giant passion fruit. If it weren't for those cold eyes that looked at everyone, Xu Ren'er would not have been able to recognize her appearance at all.
Through Apple Xinshan's eyes, Xu Rener saw his own reflection clearly, which was a passion fruit as big as Apple Xinshan at this moment.
Xu Ren'er immediately understood what the guard meant by the meaningful words "protect the guests' privacy".
The guard told them their seats. They were to sit in the third row, and counting from left to right, seats 26 to 28 were for the three of them.
The two people and the dog nodded, found their seats and sat down quickly.
Not long after they sat down, a maid came over and handed them three cups of delicious passion fruit juice.
A gleam of light flashed across Apple Xinshan's eyes. She lowered her head and pretended to take two sips, then quickly said in a slightly disdainful tone:
"Your hospitality isn't very good. The drinks are too bad!"
After saying that, she glanced at Qingti Yaoming next to her and said coldly, "You, go and teach them how to make drinks! I don't want to spoil my taste buds!"
The maid chosen by the Passion Fruit Clan was of high quality. She did not panic at Apple Xinshan's unreasonable behavior. She simply stepped aside and apologized to Apple Xinshan. Then she looked at Qingti Yaoming and said in a gentle voice, "Please follow me!"
Seeing this, Xu Ren'er thought quickly, and the next moment, she suddenly grabbed the maid's clothes and refused to let go.
Apple Xinshan was puzzled by Xu Ren'er's abnormal behavior. She frowned slightly and asked, "What are you doing?"
Xu Ren'er ignored everything happening around him and kept pestering the maid.
At this time, Xu Ren'er was also wearing a badge, and the maid could not tell whether she was a human or a dog.
The maid thought about Xu Ren'er's behavior and guessed that Xu Ren'er might be a child of three or four years old, who was not very good at speaking and was easily attracted by things that looked new and interesting.
After explaining herself and getting a suitable reason, the maid looked at Xu Ren'er with a soft gaze:
"I have some experience in taking care of children. If you don't mind, I can help take care of her after this young master finishes teaching her and successfully makes a delicious drink."
Apple Xinshan didn't want to cause any more trouble and was about to refuse, but she noticed Qingti Yaoming next to her gave her a look that required her to agree.
Apple Xinshan understood instantly: If Xu Ren'er could completely attract the maid's attention, it would be more conducive for Qingti Yaoming to explore the internal structure of the auction.
only……
Apple Xinshan gave her a look back: She is just a dog, are you sure she can help you successfully?
Qingti Yaoming replied: You are an extraordinary dog, very smart. What's more, it's just distracting the maid, which is not a difficult task.
Apple Xinshan thought about it and found that there was some truth to it.
She quickly adjusted herself, looking impatient. "Don't bother! This kid always loves to cause trouble for me! It's so annoying! Since you can take it with you, why not take it with you? It'll save me a little trouble, that's all!"
After receiving instructions from Pingguo Xinshan, Qingti Yaoming and Xu Ren'er followed the maid out of the hall.
——
Among the many fruit tribes, the blueberry tribe is not strong, but not weak either. The reason is very simple. They are often good at fighting, but have bad tempers and impulsive personalities, so people give people the illusion that they have low IQ.
IQ is also one of the criteria for judging strength.
This also led to the Blueberry Clan, whose martial arts power was obviously not inferior to other races famous for fighting, but whose ranking had always been stagnant.
The Passion Fruit Tribe actually also sent an invitation to the Blueberry Tribe, but the Blueberry Tribe had no interest in things that had nothing to do with force.
If they had to give face to the Passion Fruit Clan, the Blueberry Clan would not want to come at all, so they just sent an unimportant person as a token of their respect, just to fill in the gaps.
Mo Youli took advantage of this. He stole the invitation given to the Blueberry Tribe and successfully sneaked into the auction. He then used the excuse of needing to go to the toilet quickly and hurriedly left without being seen by the guide to find out Tang Qiuyue's location.
The Blueberry people soon discovered that the invitation was missing. After searching the inn and confirming that it was lost, they were overjoyed.
Oh yeah, an excuse!
They won't go to this crappy auction!
The question is, the invitation was stolen! I can’t go! Hehe!
——
Today is the auction, and the auction items need to be transported continuously. Therefore, the place where the auction items are placed must have the most manpower and the strongest capabilities at this moment.
Following this idea, Mo Youli took a walk and soon found his destination.
The door was open, and Mo Youli could clearly see several members of the Passion Fruit Tribe inside, carefully counting the goods and discussing the starting price.
Without any hesitation, Mo Youli rushed in quickly and knocked them unconscious one by one.
After knocking them unconscious, he closed the open door and pulled the group of unconscious Passion Fruit people aside.
"Qiuyue, where are you? Did you hear a response?"
Looking around, Mo Youli began to call out softly while worrying about who would come over.
I called out three or four times, but no one responded.
Mo Youli frowned slightly, thinking of the first time he met Tang Qiuyue in the Fruit Kingdom. Mo Youli guessed that Tang Qiuyue might be in a coma and couldn't hear his voice.
Feeling helpless, Mo Youli could only personally uncover these auction items one by one to search for which one was Tang Qiuyue?
"Huh? Why is this door closed?"
Mo Youli lifted up almost all the purple cloth covering the auction items, but found no trace of Tang Qiuyue.
Just when he was at a loss, a confused voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Mo Youli looked back and saw that the door had been opened a crack.
not good!
Mo Youli shouted in his heart.
