"How can you guard the gate? Don't you know that those cultivators outside have ulterior motives? Why do you run errands and deliver messages for such people? Master, I didn't expect those guys still didn't give up. Some people even want to try
their luck. That unknown alchemist..." Before Master Hu opened his mouth, Sang Xie, who came out from behind, scolded the guard who was delivering the message, "Shut up!" Master Hu saw that the guard looked uneasy, so he scolded his disciple.
He didn't like his disciple's attitude. After all, they were guests. These guards represented the image of the City Lord's Mansion. Scolding them casually would be a slap in the face of the City Lord.
"Master..." Sang Xie was shocked.
Valley Master Hu was too lazy to pay attention to him and smiled apologetically at the guard. The guard was flattered this time and quickly
handed over the letter and explained: "The messenger said that it must be handed over to the Valley Master. The letter contains the whereabouts of Young Master Hu."
Sang Xie's heart skipped a beat, and then he didn't take it seriously. Could it be that the monks outside had come up with a new trick to attract the master's attention? He curled his lips in disdain.
Master Hu was overjoyed. He snatched the letter and opened it in a hurry. After a quick glance, even his breath changed: "Where is the messenger? Take me to see him, quickly!"
The guard guessed that the letter was really related to Young Master Hu. He didn't know whether he was being held hostage or what. He took Master Hu out as he was told. However, after asking the guards at the door, the messenger was nowhere to be found. After searching the nearby area, there was no trace of him. When Master Hu asked about the messenger's appearance again, the guard realized that he couldn't even remember what the messenger looked like, and he couldn't help sweating profusely.
Seeing that Master Hu was in a panic, another guard stepped forward to ask: "Master Hu, I wonder who sent the letter..."
"That was my grandson, that child Weicai! That child would rather send the letter than show up to see me!" Master Hu regretted that he found out too late. If he had always paid attention to the situation outside, he might have caught the person and brought him back in the first place.
Sang Xie and Wan Siqing, who came out with him, looked at each other in bewilderment when they heard this. No one thought that it was the second-generation ancestor who personally sent the letter. What did he mean by this? Now that the master has confirmed that the junior brother is in Shifang City, should he continue to stay here and look for him?
Sang Xie was still regretting his previous recklessness, wondering if he would leave a bad impression on his master. He could not help but blame Hu Weicai, who was nowhere to be found. He thought that if he had no ability, he should just enjoy a lifetime of wealth and luxury, but he had to make the whole Cuiyan Valley in chaos.
Wan Siqing rolled her eyes, stepped forward and said: "Master, the valley cannot leave you, so why don't you let Siqing stay here on your behalf and continue to look for a little apprentice for you. Master, you don't have to worry, the little apprentice will be blessed by heaven."
Master Hu looked at Wan Siqing with relief. Finally, he didn't have to worry too much about his two apprentices, otherwise he didn't know how he would live his life: "Master, I will stay for two more days. I will return after the seniors from Changxianmen leave."
"Yes, Master. "
Sang Shu regretted that his opportunity was snatched away by his junior sister, and now he said: "Master, I will take a few people to check now. Since my junior brother has appeared here before, he must have left some clues."
"Okay, you are all very sensible. Master, I am very happy."
"Master, I will go now. "Sang Xie secretly cast a smug look at Wan Siqing, bowed to his master, turned around and strode away.
Wan Siqing sneered in her heart. She would never grab this opportunity to show off. The little junior brother was able to escape from Cuiyan Valley. Now, with just a few people in the door, they can find him out? The eldest senior brother will definitely be busy in vain, and in the end he will not get any good. Master
Hu took out the letter in his hand again. There were only a few sentences on it, claiming that his grandson was fine and wanted to gain some experience outside to let his grandfather rest assured. But how could Master Hu be at ease? Why is this child so stubborn?
Tian Feirong brought back a message: "The largest business in the city is going to hold an auction tomorrow. Do you want to go and have a look? I heard that people from various sects haven't left yet, just waiting for the auction to be held, and," Tian Feirong said with a wink, "I heard that there are also good things brought by those three people from Changxianmen, so, the owner behind this business must be the City Lord's Mansion, otherwise how could it be the biggest in Shifang City. "
This means that there must be a lot of good things at the auction, but the problem is that the better the things are, the more Gu Yao can only watch. Compared with the children of small families, he is rich, but he can't make the slightest splash in Shifang City, so if he goes... it's just to feast his eyes, right?
But Gu Yao still asked Chi Changye: "Brother Ye, do you want to go? Why don't we go over and open our eyes? "
Chi Changye had a smile in his eyes, he could see that Gu Yao wanted to go, and he had to drag him along. He nodded and said, "Okay, let's go and open our eyes."
Tian Feirong was so happy that she danced with joy, "It's settled then, I'll go ask the fat boy, I don't know what's wrong with this guy, he's like a different person. "He walked out while muttering to find someone.
The next day, the fat boy was still taken by Tian Feirong. Since the four of them did not move together with the Tian family, they did not follow the elders to join in the fun. The family must have something they want to bid for, and perhaps they are also waiting for this opportunity.
The auction house is located next to the Central Square. Countless cultivators are waiting outside. After asking someone, they found out that the entrance fee alone is ten spirit stones. It's simply... a money grab! They came to Shifang City and found out that spirit stones are not worth spending.
Seeing Gu Yao's painful face, Chi Changye took out twenty spirit stones and took him in. The fat boy also threw out twenty pieces, and took Tian Feirong to follow behind. These four people looked young, but they were so generous that the people wandering outside were envious.
"What are the identities of those people? They are so generous that they can spend spirit stones at will."
"I think I have seen them before. They are from Tianfu College."
"No wonder they are so generous. Those who can enter Tianfu College are all second-generation rich people with no shortage of money. They are really lucky in their reincarnation. "The speaker's tone was sour and far-reaching, but it was echoed by many people.
Gu Yao was not unfamiliar with the auction. It seemed to be similar to the scene in the Interstellar Alliance. Gu Yao's medicine was once a very popular item in major auctions, but now he could only find a corner to sit down and wait for the auction to start. Gu Yao couldn't help but miss the glorious years.
A person touched them from behind and was about to reach out to pat their shoulders. Chi Changye suddenly turned his head, and the person who wanted to take a sneak shot was almost scared.
Seeing Chi Changye looking at him with a look without any emotion, Senior Brother Zhou felt as helpless as if he was caught by Senior Brother Jiang. He said uncomfortably: "Chi is also interested in watching the auction. I just saw
a few people Junior brother is here, I came over to say hello. "
Really, I'm just saying hello, I don't mean to scare you, Senior Brother Zhou tried to make Chi Changye believe it with his sincere eyes.
Chi Changye curled his lips, then turned his head back with a blank expression and no response. Fortunately, Gu Yao and the other two greeted Senior Brother Zhou warmly, which saved his little self-esteem.
Senior Brother Zhou pointed out a direction to Gu Yao and the other two. It turned out that no matter how bad the reputation of Tianfu College was, it still had the dean and several late-stage foundation-building monks to support it, so the auction house was very considerate and arranged a private room. It was when Senior Brother Zhou looked down from the private room that he saw the three people sneaking in. Senior
Brother Zhou was unwilling to go back to the private room and insisted on squeezing in with them. After sitting down, he said: "Senior Fang has been too depressed these two days. I dare not even talk to him in a private room." That would suffocate him to death. Only Senior Brother Jiang and Junior Sister Bai adapted well. "Fortunately, you are here." He had an excuse to run out, and he wanted to go back only when he was upset.
"Is it because of the visitor from Changxian Sect?" Gu Yao asked.
Senior Brother Zhou looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so he lowered his voice and said, "What the senior said the other day was only one side of the story. You don't know that the Changxian Sect comes here once every ten years. Although they bring some things with them, they have looted even more. Why do you think the people from the Changxian Sect have to wait until the auction is over before leaving? It's to make use of this opportunity to make money. Also, including our Tianfu Academy, we have to pay tribute to the City Lord's Mansion on a regular basis."
The destination of these tributed resources is naturally the Changxian Sect. Over time, their Tianlin Continent has become increasingly poor. He has heard that there were still talented cultivators who succeeded in forming a golden elixir in the past, but later it became increasingly difficult.
Gu Yao could only pat his shoulder comfortingly. The situation was stronger than the person, and the weak could only bow their heads and be slaughtered.
Maybe in another thousand years, even building the foundation would be difficult, and it would become like the situation in Yuanyang Town.
When the hall was crowded with people, the auction finally began. The auctioneer was a female cultivator in the foundation-building period. She looked very sweet, but as soon as she opened her mouth, people knew that she was a straightforward person.
"Let's stop talking nonsense and start with the first item for auction. The Yunxia Pill is an eighth-grade high-level pill that can help cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage to advance one small level. The starting price is one hundred spirit stones, and each bid increase must not be less than ten spirit stones. Bidding begins now!"
On the central display stand, there was a light screen that projected the auction items. The Yunxia Pill seemed to be shrouded in clouds and mist, with faint golden patterns flashing. There were gasps in the hall. This was a top-grade pill. People immediately started bidding frantically on the bidding machine. In a short period of time, the price quickly climbed to thousands of spirit stones. Gu Yao gasped at first, but eventually became numb.
Gu Yao said: "I didn't expect there are so many rich people. I am just ignorant."
This has just begun. How many spirit stones can be collected from the entire auction? For him, it is no different from an astronomical number.
"That is a top-grade pill," Senior Brother Zhou said, "Even Master Hu may not be able to refine it. If you miss this opportunity, you may have to wait for ten years to encounter such a pill again. You must bid hard."
