Chapter 22: Future Brother-in-law
Seeing this, the woman in green behind the young man was not happy, and was about to do it with a cold snort, but the man raised his hand to stop her. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
However, although he stopped the woman, his face became ugly, and his eyes became a lot colder.
"It's just a little minion who has no rules, you don't have to worry about him, I really want to pinch him to death, it's no different from pinching an ant to death, but it's not good to make more important people unhappy." The young man said to the woman beside him.
Then the young man, the master and the servant, also entered.
As for the people who were arranged by the Gu family and Wanbaolou to guard the door of the auction, they naturally knew who they were, so they naturally didn't dare to stop them.
After walking through the passage more than ten zhang long, several people came to the interior of this large circular building. I saw that it was very spacious, except for a square platform in the middle, and the surrounding area was densely packed with seats. At this time, there were already a lot of monks sitting on these seats.
These monks have different appearances, some are normal, some are fancy clothes, and some are even bare-headed, wearing big bracelets and chains. There was a stocky monk with thick earrings on his ears, and his face was meaty, and he looked very fierce.
Of course, there are also many people who are reluctant to reveal their identities, so some people wear masks or cloaks.
But this is the first floor, the first floor is full of open-air seating, and the second floor is a closed room. These rooms are side-by-side around a raised platform in the middle. However, although these rooms are closed, the side facing the auction hall is a special spar used, and there are special prohibitions, so although the outside cannot see the inside, the inside can see the outside.
However, to be arranged here, naturally they are not ordinary people, they are all people with status, or with prominent backgrounds, or with high cultivation.
"Miss Guya, in that direction is my VIP room, why don't we go together?" The brocade-robed young man raised his hand and pointed in the direction inside, and then said with a warm smile.
"No, my place has already been arranged, thank you Master Wan!" Gu Ya shook her head slightly and said.
"Okay, in that case, then I'll go over, I hope that Miss Gu Ya can get what she wants in this auction, and if you need help, you can always ask. By the way, remember to say hello to Uncle Gu on my behalf. β
The brocade-robed young man didn't seem to care about Gu Ya's refusal, chuckled, and then said to Gu Ya.
"Okay, I'll bring it." Gu Ya nodded slightly.
After separating from the master and servant of the man in the brocade robe, Gu Ya soon took Zhong Yong to a room.
Before coming to the room, Gu Ya took out a token, and then injected spiritual power, the token pointed at the door of this room, and the door of this room suddenly rippled several times, and then it opened automatically with a "click".
Pushing open the door, Gu Ya walked in.
Zhong Yong casually glanced around the auction venue, and then walked in.
There was a square table in the room, and on top of the square table was a plate of red spirit fruits the size of a fist.
These spirit fruits were obviously prepared by the Gu family and Wanbaolou for the VIPs who could enter here.
"This is the Red Yuan Crystal Fruit?" Zhong Yong muttered.
Zhong Yong had bought several classics in the Fang Market before, and one of them was called "The Encyclopedia of Elixir and Poisonous Herbs", which contained a lot of introductions to elixirs and poisonous weeds, including the introduction of this Chiyuan Jingguo.
Zhong Yong studied it and naturally recognized it.
Looking at this Chiyuan Jingguo, a strange liquid suddenly came out of Zhong Yong's mouth, and then he couldn't help but swallow and lick his lips.
"Grandma's, I, Zhong Yong, have been cultivating for so long, and I haven't tasted the taste of the spirit fruit yet." At this time, looking at this large plate of seven or eight spirit fruits, Zhong Yong's heart was very moved.
There was no one else in this room, only him and Gu Ya, so he didn't need to worry about anything, so he just stepped forward and took one, and then put it to his mouth and "chirp", and took a bite.
This Chiyuan crystal fruit is very crisp, and at the same time it is also very sweet, and more importantly, the fruit contains aura, after eating a bite of the pulp, Zhong Yong suddenly felt comfortable and refreshed, and it felt very wonderful.
However, at this time, Zhong Yong was enjoying the delicious spirit fruit, but Gu Ya's brows were slightly furrowed, but he still didn't say anything in the end.
In fact, all along, although Zhong Yong promised to be a quaint slave, he didn't really see himself as a slave in his heart. So a lot of the time he's very casual.
After taking another bite, Zhong Yong found that Gu Ya was looking at him with a slight frown.
This Zhong Yong also felt that he was a little too much and a little unsophisticated. After all, Gu Ya is not his master, let's not say for the time being, but at least she is a woman, why do you have to be polite first, and ask people if they eat it?
Thinking of this, Zhong Yong hurriedly freed up one hand, then stretched out his hand to the plate and picked up another spirit fruit.
"This..., you, do you eat?" Zhong Yong took a spirit fruit and handed it to Gu Ya and said.
As he spoke, he looked at Gu Ya expectantly.
Looking at Zhong Yong, who was serious, expectant, and even a little innocent and silly, Gu Ya was also amused at this time, and she laughed out loud with a snort.
Although this quaint sneered and laughed out loud, the voice was very soft and beautiful.
With this smile, the quaint delicate face suddenly looked like a blooming flower, which was very moving.
Gu Ya was really smiling and smiling at this time, and her beautiful eyes were looking forward to it, and Zhong Yong was also a little distracted at this time.
However, Gu Ya's such a wonderful and ecstatic demeanor is the time that lasts for an instant.
Soon Gu Ya snorted coldly and said, "What kind of system do you let others see when you look like this?" β
Zhong Yong also came back to his senses at this time, and said with a smile: "Yes, then it's okay not to let others see it, you see, there is no one else here now." β
Looking at Zhong Yong, who was not in any shape, Gu Ya glanced at him, and then said nothing more, quietly waiting for the auction to begin.
"By the way, who was that man just now?"
At this moment, Zhong Yong seemed to remember something, took a bite of the spirit fruit, and then asked.
"He, he's my future brother-in-law!" Gu Ya sighed slightly, and then said indifferently.
"What? Your future brother-in-law? β
Zhong Yong was stunned, and the spirit fruit in his hand almost fell to the ground.
Gu Ya has an older sister named Gu Yun, this Zhong Yong knows, but he didn't expect that the man he saw today turned out to be Gu Yun's fiancΓ©.
"More than 10 years ago, on my father's 200th birthday, my ancient family invited guests to celebrate together. Among the guests who came at that time were people from 10,000 families. The head of the Wan family brought his son Wan Liang, the person you just met, to the Gu family. After Wan Liang came to the Gu family, he met my sister and was quickly attracted by my sister's stunning appearance. At that time, my sister was not very old, that is, thirteen or fourteen years old. β
"This Wan Liang told his father at that time that he liked my sister. Let his father make decisions for him. β
"My sister is beautiful, and her spiritual root qualifications are also excellent, and the head of the Wan family is naturally very excited. And he also doted on this only son of his. So I quickly agreed to Wan Liang, and later mentioned it to my father. β
"For this Wanliang, my father also knows a little, the person is really good-looking, handsome and extraordinary, and the spiritual root qualification is also excellent, just like my sister, it is a rare top-grade spiritual root, that is, a nine-grade spiritual root."
"However, although this son is good, and my father is a little moved, my father did not immediately agree, but consulted my sister's opinion. In the end, my sister didn't like this Wanliang. β
"Although Wan Liang is a good son, my father is also satisfied with some aspects of him, such as his spiritual root qualifications, especially his family background. But my sister didn't like it, and my father couldn't help it. My sister is the most talented person in the Gu family for hundreds of years, and her words are still very effective in the Gu family. β
"By the way, you may not know about Wanjia, Wanjia is much stronger than my Gu family, if my Gu family can form a family with Wanjia, it will also be of great benefit to my Gu family. That's one of the reasons why my father was so excited at the time. β
"But at my sister's insistence, my father politely refused the family."
"At this point, the matter between my sister and Wan Liang should be over. However, an incident that happened later caused this to take a different direction. β
"Seven or eight years ago, my father went out and was besieged by thieves, and although he managed to escape, he was also poisoned. This poison is very strange, and the elixir that can cure this poison is extremely rare. But just when the whole clan of our ancient family was helpless, the people of the ten thousand families appeared with a detoxification holy pill, Taiqing Dan. They said that they were willing to use Taiqing Pill to detoxify my father, but the premise was that the Gu family would agree to my sister's marriage to Wan Liang. β
"Now you've guessed that for my father's sake, my sister finally agreed."
I only listened to Gu Ya's soft voice and indifferently narrated.
After listening to the quaint narration, Zhong Yong also sighed slightly at this time and said, "I see! β
Gu Ya glanced at Zhong Yong, and then continued: "Now that my Gu family has promised the Wan family, my Gu family is not easy to regret, and the Wan family is powerful, and it is not something that my Gu family can regret if they want to." It's just bitter for my dear sister. Gu Ya finally muttered.
Zhong Yong was silent at this time, with a deep groaning on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.
However, I don't know if it was the quaint mood that affected Zhong Yong, or Zhong Yong himself felt pity for the ancient rhyme that he had never met, this time Zhong Yong felt that the spirit fruit in his hand was not as delicious as before.
But at this moment, a loud voice suddenly reached the room in the auction room.
