Chapter 37: The Sinking Star Auction House
After Xin'er left the room, she put on her hat and put on a black robe and walked down the street, and it didn't take long for Xin'er to see the Xifeng Building that Zhuge Longlong said before. Xin'er stood at the door of Xifeng Tower, and was hesitating to go in, when an old man greeted her, "Girl, please come inside, the guest room has been arranged for you, and the carriage has been prepared for you, and I can send you to the auction house tomorrow, so you can have a good rest here tonight." β
Xin'er was shocked by the old man's performance, and subconsciously took a step back, "Wait, you recognized the wrong person, I didn't book a room with you, and I didn't say what auction house I was going to." β
The old man smiled all over his face, "It's a boy who booked the trip for you." He is your eldest brother, and your eldest brother has been so kind to you, and has booked you the most exclusive room and the most luxurious carriage. β
Hearing this, Xin'er understood that this was definitely Zhuge Longlong's ghost, and hurriedly shook his head, "You recognize the wrong person, my name is Xin'er, he is not my brother, I don't know him at all." β
The old man wondered, "But your dress and demeanor, and even what you just said are exactly the same as what the boy described, if you are not a brother and sister, how can you know each other so well? Could it be that the son is your ...... of the young lady?" At this time, the old man showed a thoughtful look.
Seeing this, Xin'er suddenly looked embarrassed, "No! It's not what you think!"
The old man had an expression that I understand, you don't need to explain, "It's normal for the little couple to quarrel a lot, Miss Xin'er, you can stay, don't live up to the kindness of that son." β
After that, he couldn't help but pull Xin'er closer to the store.
"Wait, sir, you really recognized the wrong person!"
......
Eventually, Xin'er was pulled down from the store and taken to a luxurious room, full of sumptuous dΓ©cor, with gold-stucco walls and marble bricks, covered with a carpet sewn from a ferret. A curtain made of pearls, a bed made of nephrite. A bathtub made of diamonds, with lotus flowers carved from jadeite inlaid on both sides of the bathtub. Xin'er was amazed by this magnificent decoration, and was a little sluggish for a while.
Seeing Xin'er's reaction, the old man smiled slightly, "Miss Xin'er, let's rest here for a while, and I will ask someone to send it to the room when dinner is ready." β
Xin'er nodded and said, and the old man silently took the door and left the room.
Xin'er walked around the room, and finally stopped in the bathroom, looking at the bathtub made of diamonds, and thought to herself: it should be okay to take a bath. I saw Xin'er slowly peel off her clothes, revealing a flawless ketone body. After the three thousand green silks hung down, they were full of four beauties. Slender jade hands lotus jade feet, ice clear jade clean girl's heart. Coupled with the sexy waist socket and graceful posture, the whole person is as delicate as an unripe apple, and as moving as a blooming snow lotus. I believe that both men and women will be thrilled and unforgettable when they see such a scene. Xin'er looked at herself in the mirror, but there was no wave in her heart: Is this me now? What was I like back then?
Xin'er slowly put water into the bathtub, under the refraction of the water, the brilliance of the diamond bathtub shines on the entire bathroom, and the shadow of the water waves is printed on the wall, the bathroom becomes an underwater world, the waves ripple on the wall, and the water seems to fill the whole bathroom, Xin'er is like a mermaid in the water, lifting a jade foot, touching the water surface lightly with her toes, and the water surface immediately forms a layer of frost, and the water at room temperature becomes zero. Xin'er slowly soaked her whole body in the ice water mixture.
"Hmm......" Xin'er couldn't help but snort softly, feeling the cold water penetrate every inch of her skin, Xin'er silently closed her eyes, enjoying the rare comfort. Women are made of water, and I believe that no woman can resist the comfort of soaking in a diamond bathtub.
The cold air floated on the surface of the water, covering Xin'er's face, and she couldn't see the delicate facial features clearly, and she could vaguely see the jade hand that was raised from time to time sometimes stirring the water of the bathtub, sometimes caressing the flowing long hair, and sometimes caressing the delicate ketone body. With the clear sound of water and the faint whisper, it makes people think about it and can't stop.
"Knock knock" A knock on the door disturbed Xin'er's Yaxing, Xin'er changed into a refreshing dress, opened the door, and saw a young man pushing a dining cart standing respectfully at the door, seeing Xin'er open the door, he couldn't help but be impressed by her beauty, lowered his head, and said with a red face: "Miss Xin'er, your meal is ready." β
Xin'er nodded and motioned for him to come in, and the young man put the meal on the table, said "Happy eating" and left the room.
Although Xifeng Building is not as famous as Zuixian Building, the configuration of the luxurious room is not much better than that of Zuixian Building, especially the table of ingredients, some of which are still treasures that Xin'er has heard of but has never eaten. Xin'er was not polite, and after sweeping away the food on the table, she began to practice cross-legged, and after more than a month of continuous travel, Xin'er did not give up her cultivation. Now Xin'er is a level twenty-eight magician, and she should be able to break through level thirty in the near future.
This sat on the top of the moon, and it was not until sleepiness hit that Xin'er lay down on the bed to rest.
Now Xin'er will no longer fall asleep with tears, her tears have long since dried up, the pain has been frozen, and her thoughts have been frozen, only indifference fills her cold heart.
Early in the morning, Xin'er opened her eyes to the rising sun, and soon there was a knock on the door, and the old man standing at the door was yesterday's old man pushing the dining cart and said respectfully: "Miss Xin'er, breakfast is ready, and the carriage has been waiting at the door for a long time, and it can start at any time." β
Xin'er thought for a while: It's all here, so let's go and see what there is to buy. Then he said to the old man, "I'll prepare first, and I'll go down in a while." β
The old man nodded, put breakfast on the table, put away yesterday's plate, and left the room.
Xin'er finished breakfast, changed into her original black robe and hat, and walked quickly to the door. I saw a huge luxury carriage parked at the door, which was pulled by six horses. The body is six meters long and three meters wide, and it is full of rich decorations. Seeing Xin'er appear, the old man opened the curtain and sent Xin'er into the car, the spaciousness inside was far beyond Xin'er's imagination, this is a carriage, this is clearly a stable!
As soon as Xin'er got into the carriage, the old man drove the six BMWs on the road. Although there are no bumps in the car and it is very comfortable, Xin'er is still used to walking barefoot, and Nameless once said to herself, "Mother Earth, you must be down-to-earth, you must contact this land all the time, use your feet to walk out of a world, and use your body to feel everything in the world." So Xin'er has always walked barefoot and rarely used transportation tools. Now sitting in such a luxurious carriage, Xin'er is still a little unaccustomed, opened the curtain and said to the old man, "Dare to ask the senior's name." β
The old man said while driving the carriage: "The seniors don't dare to be it, and the honorable surname can't afford it, the next surname is Feng, the name is Tongtong, Miss Xin'er can call me Xiao Feng." β
"I'll call you Old Feng. Xin'er said.
"As long as Miss Xin'er is happy. Feng Tongtong said.
"Can Elder Feng introduce me to the Shenxing Auction House?" Xin'er said.
"Isn't Miss Xin'er going to the auction house for the first time?" Feng Tongtong asked.
Xin'er nodded.
"Shenxing Auction House is the third largest auction house in the north and the sixth largest auction house in the mainland, but in terms of popularity, it is definitely the most famous in the north. It never auctions off magic and martial arts, but specializes in auctioning off some rare treasures, some of which have been identified, and some of which cannot be identified, which is enough to highlight its specialness. Going there is not a bidding at all, but gambling, especially those foreign objects that cannot be identified, some foreign objects, some of which are made when they are auctioned, and some of which are lost when they are auctioned. But even so, there are still many people who enjoy it. Feng Tongtong excitedly introduced the Shenxing Auction House, obviously he was a frequent visitor there.
"And how do I get the treasure?"
"Shenxing Auction House generally uses gold coins as general equivalents, and usually, after the auction is over, someone will take it to the backstage, and you only need to pay the corresponding gold coins to get the items you have auctioned, if you don't have enough gold coins to pay for the items auctioned. There is only one end - death. β
Xin'er subconsciously swallowed, "Can't you replace it with something other than gold coins?"
Feng Tongtong said: "Yes, but it's best not to do this, the forensic personnel there are very black-hearted, and if you want to barter, you will lose a lot." For example, the value of that treasure was originally equivalent to the value of one ninth-order spirit core at most, but he asked for two ninth-order spirit cores, and if he couldn't take it, there was only one end - death. β
Xin'er looked at the mountain of spirit cores, and touched her pocket again - there was nothing left, so she had to sigh: You should go to see the world, it's a great loss to exchange the spirit core for a treasure.
All the way Xin'er either went to the drunken fairy building to eat and live for free, or slept on the street, basically had no concept of the general equivalent of gold coins, and now I found that there is no money, which is a very serious problem: it seems that I have to find a way to get some money.
On the way, Feng Tongtong told Xin'er in detail about many things about the Shenxing Auction House, which benefited Xin'er a lot, until she came to the door of the Shenxing Auction House, Feng Tongtong stopped the carriage and handed Xin'er a pass, "Miss Xin'er, this is the Shenxing Auction House, with the pass, someone will naturally lead you to the designated position to sit down, and I can only send you here." β
Xin'er jumped out of the carriage, took the pass, thanked her, and walked quickly into the auction house.
