Chapter 799 Could it be that this painting is about to become a spirit?
"Mother!" Wu Su was about to cry.
"Alright, Mother promises you, they won't be able to leave the Darong Kingdom."

"Congratulations to the VIP in Room 1 on the third floor who won the bid of five million for the lotus-patterned staff! May your future in witchcraft be smooth and your life be greatly advanced! Congratulations! Now, our morning session has concluded successfully. Please look forward to the afternoon session."
The staff delivered the lotus-patterned cane to Jiang Lianzhu in private room No. 1 on the third floor.
Jiang Lianzhu felt the magical power surge through her body just by looking at the lotus-patterned cane from afar, and now that she held it in her hands, she felt even more excited.
"Fourth brother! Thank you!"
She needs this lotus-patterned cane.
It's just a little expensive. Five million taels of silver, she doesn't know when she can get enough. Today, she finally saw what it means to be rich.
It’s her fourth brother!
The bid was made without any hesitation or consideration.
The six million bid for private room No. 3 was scrapped, and no one raised the price anymore.
The most outstanding one in the whole audience.
"Fourth brother, I have some money on me now. I will pay you back slowly when I get some money back in Beijing..."
Si Langjun said calmly, "Why, I can't even give my sister a gift? You're telling me that. Am I a fake Fourth Brother?"
Jiang Lianzhu...
She was being too formal!
Family members should not have different opinions.
After figuring it out, she smiled sweetly, "Thank you very much, Fourth Brother."
Life is long, and there are plenty of opportunities to reciprocate.
She now couldn't wait to return to her residence, seclude herself, and study what she had filmed.
It was just halftime, and Silangjun and Jiang Lianzhu left.

The beautiful woman and her son in private room No. 3 were angry and embarrassed.
"Where did this bastard come from? How dare he steal our things on our territory, the Great Rong Nation? How despicable! Too arrogant!" Wu Su gritted his teeth. "No, mother, I must get this witch staff!"
"Wu Su, don't get angry. This is the black market. We can't take action here. We can only wait until they go out. It's useless for me to mark them. Their cultivation is not low. They can't remove my mark. I can only have someone keep an eye on them and take action as soon as they leave the black market." The beautiful woman warned.
The consequences of taking action in the black market are very serious.
Even though the black market is located in the territory of Darong Kingdom, it will not give their royal family much face.
You have to follow the rules when you come in.
You can do your own thing, but you must act within the rules. You can even use the rules to help sanction the enemy, but you cannot break the rules of the black market.
Wu Su's mouth twisted with anger. "But, mother, if they have to wait until the black market closes, then when will they come out? There are still dozens of days before the black market closes. What if they come out at the last minute? What if they refine the cane into their own during this time, or break it? The cane will look tattered, and if they accidentally break it, they won't be able to compensate even with their lives!"
The beautiful woman's eyes were dark and sincere. "You have a point. Let's first find out who they are and where they live. We can go to their house and discuss it. Mother can also take out some private money and see if we can get them to make some concessions."
Just then, someone outside the door came to report.
"Master, the father and daughter in Room 1 have left the auction house."
Wu Su was even more anxious. "Mother, look, they can't wait to go back and refine the cane! I don't know if it's for the old one or the young one. It's okay if it's for the old one, as she's more mature. But if it's for the young one, and she's an ignorant little girl, she might accidentally break the cane! Mother, we can't wait any longer!"
The beautiful woman frowned, "First, keep an eye on them and see which inn they return to. Also, keep an eye on the buyer of the painting of distant mountains and nearby waters."
"yes."
The men took the order and went out.
The auction continued at this time.
The beautiful woman soothed her son, "Don't worry. There are still witch wands to be auctioned later. Let's wait and see. What if there's one that's better than this one, with a better price? This one is indeed good, and I can sense it. However, it's badly damaged and ridiculously expensive. It's not worth it. Be patient and wait until the auction is over."
She had looked at the list of items at the auction. There were several wizard wands, and this lotus-patterned wand was just the first one.
There might be better ones later.
These words made the anxious Prince Wu Su sit back down.
yes!
There’s more to come!
What’s the rush!
The things that can enter the final auction house will not be too bad. This first one is tattered and is probably the worst one. Let’s wait and see if the next two can be sold.
Let these two idiots from other places buy a walking stick for five million taels of silver!
How could he, the most favored prince of the Great Rong Kingdom, give in just because he had no money? He simply disdained to compete with an idiot.
If he gets the picture for more than five million, wouldn't he be an idiot?
After comforting himself, his mood immediately calmed down a lot.

Jiang Lianzhu and the others returned to the inn.
Silangjun and she went their separate ways, and Silangjun went to the Wanxiang Weapon Shop.
Jiang Lianzhu stayed in the inn and studied some important things she had taken photos of.
First of all, she studied the whip, and finding her father, the War King, was the top priority, and everything else was secondary.
Si Langjun said that he had used secret magic to set up a barrier in this room so that outsiders could not see in, allowing her to use her magic power without worry.
The key point is that Jiang Lianzhu studied the whip for a long time, but she could only conclude that the whip was made of the whiskers of the dragon snake she and Liao Jiu killed! If nothing unexpected happened, it must have been taken to the Wanxiang Weapon Shop by his father, but the people at the Wanxiang Weapon Shop said they had never seen it. There was obviously something fishy going on.
So Silangjun went to deal with it.
Jiang Lianzhu put down the whip and subconsciously picked up the painting of distant mountains and nearby water. She searched the painting inch by inch with her eyes and even released her magic power to search, but she didn't find any clues. However, she felt something was wrong. The painting seemed to have a strong attraction to her.
But she couldn't find the way.
The animated picture of spring, summer, autumn and winter that was auctioned at the auction house before was magical at first glance. You could see clearly where the movement was.
Her fourth brother said that it was due to the abundant spiritual energy that made the painting come alive.
Jiang Lianzhu understood that with spiritual energy, even pictures could become spirits and have a certain sense of self-control.
Could it be that this painting is about to become a spirit?
But if it were to become a spirit, wouldn't Silangjun's senses be more sensitive than hers? Why didn't he sense anything unusual, but she was the only one who did?
So, this doesn't make sense either.
There must be some other reason.
Jiang Lianzhu couldn't help but move her attention to the lotus-patterned cane again. The lotus-patterned cane was beside her, constantly influencing her mind.
Just seeing it makes me feel inexplicably satisfied.
