Chapter 30: The Living Dead
The crisp and pleasant sound of "ding dong" echoed in the room, and soon the noisy hall fell silent. An old, steady voice resounded through the hall.
"First of all, welcome to ......"
"Stop talking nonsense, bring that thing up." The person presiding over the auction was interrupted by a frivolous voice at the beginning.
The old man was not angry, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Well, since the distinguished guest is anxious, the old man will not say that nonsense, come and carry it up." β
Thousands of pairs of eyes were glued to the raised platform in the center of the room, and the curtains of the rooms on the second and third floors were lifted. The moment things appeared, the brilliant light shone on the high platform, and the empty room was filled with colorful light, and everyone watching had to squint their eyes......
Ziyulou almost couldn't believe his eyes, how could it be that person? Isn't he supposed to be dead? How could it be...... According to Orochimaru, he should still be alive......
But a short shock was followed by a surprise, if he was still alive, then that woman should be very happy, thinking, Zi Lulou showed a knowing smile.
Except for being a little nervous, Orochimaru was not surprised, because now there should be no one who can recognize the person wrapped in the colorful crystal, not to mention, Orochimaru really doesn't know who the person in it is.
The facial features of the person in Caijing are exquisite, but the skin is a little sickly white, but this does not affect his handsomeness at all. The dark green military uniform makes him even more handsome and majestic. The muscles with infinite explosive power under the meticulous dress make people stay away. The slender and upright posture, resolutely like a rock cliff peak, even if you close your eyes, you can also feel the fierce sword intent, as if as long as you take a step closer, there is an invisible sword that can cut off your head, that fierce momentum, forcing people to dare not come out!
Silent...... They were all stunned by the man's temperament. It is impossible to imagine that a dead person can be overwhelmingly stressful.
"Will anyone see that he's not exactly dead?" Ziyulou is very worried about this, if a bigger force intervenes, I am afraid it will not be easy to rob him.
Orochimaru shook his head: "His heartbeat is extremely weak, humans can't detect it, and besides, there is no sign of his breathing at all......"
"Is he really alive?" Hearing Orochimaru's words, Zi Lulou was even more uneasy in his heart, there should be no air in the crystal, how could he be alive under such conditions? However, even if it is a corpse, he must take him today!
"Are you Four Seas Chamber of Commerce really planning to auction this dead man?" The woman's beautiful voice like a yellow bird broke the silence of the audience.
"This girl is strict, what we are going to auction is actually this colorful spar......" The old man stroked his beard and said unhurriedly.
"Since it's a spare, what's the matter with you getting a dead man in it? Do you want to make the hedron bigger and make more gold? The woman asked most people's doubts.
"I'm afraid I can't solve it." It was Zi Tianyu in the box on the third floor who spoke, his left hand lightly tapping on the table, and there was an inexplicable sparkle in his eyes.
"Can't untie it?" The man, known as the Great Prince, put down the teacup in his hand and muttered to himself, "Is there a spar in this world that cannot be solved?" β
Soon, the old man who presided over the auction gave the answer: "Don't hide it from your distinguished guests, this spar was found in an iceberg, at that time, there was a snowstorm, our largest freighter hit an iceberg in the waves and storms, the part of the ice floating on the sea was relatively thin, so it broke, which revealed this spare, we suffered huge losses, or was rescued by the surrounding fishing boats after the calm waves, and got the spars, we searched for many stone calcifiers, and also found all kinds of divine blades, but, Nothing can hurt it, even if it doesn't leave a mark......"
"Then what are you doing so long-winded? You can't untie this spar, and you can't untie it in our hands? What do we want it to do! Another gruff voice interjected.
"Although it's a beauty, how can it be a man, if it's a beauty, it's also excellent to buy it back and make decorations." The flirtatious voice from before reappeared.
The old man said unhurriedly: "In addition to being beautiful, this spar is also the treasure of the practice refining tool...... not to mention the latter words, everyone knows it, but this is the case, whether it is practicing or refining, it can only refine the man in the crystal together, although he is a dead man, but it looks like he is just asleep, what kind of courage does it take to refine a person? But in order to become strong, it is nothing to kill a living person, let alone a dead person? It's just that everyone present tacitly didn't make it clear.
Ziyulou narrowed his eyes dangerously, these people are good! Very good! Four Seas Chamber of Commerce? Good! Very good!
The man in the middle room on the third floor frowned slightly, his face was slightly impatient, but his heart was turbulent, and a very familiar feeling emanated from the man lying in the colorful crystals, his heart was like a knife cut, but he couldn't show half a point, his memory would not be wrong, he had never seen him, but where did that hellish familiarity come from!
"Yu Xiu?" The woman in white on the main seat called softly, and looked at the clenched fist of the man in white hidden under his sleeve.
"Princess." The man left his seat and bowed, neither humble nor arrogant.
"What do you think of that object?" The red lips bend in a wonderful arc, the eyes are rolling, and the indescribable cunning and agility are nimble. The others couldn't take their eyes off, but Yu Xiu just said lightly: "That colorful spar is a perfect match for the princess." β
"Yu Xiu, how are the people inside?" Qing Ling's voice continued.
"Not how." Still replied coldly.
"I think you seem to be very interested." The woman was still smiling, but the coldness in her eyes was only known to Yu Xiu.
"Princess, I just don't like snakes." After that, a small blue and black snake had appeared in his hand, and it was the dying and struggling Great Snake Pill!
The woman looked at the little snake struggling and twisting in his bony hands, made a timid look, and waved her hand: "Throw that thing away!" β
"Yu Xiu, throw it away, don't scare the princess." The man on the lower left hand is busy drinking.
Orochimaru had tears in his eyes and was moved. I feel that my bones are twisted into braids! Why is there such a terrible master, the one on the first floor can't be provoked, this one can't be provoked, but he can't run and can't run, why is his life so bitter......
"This little snake should belong to the guest downstairs, I'll send it here."
"When have you ever seen such a person?" The princess leaned back and looked weak as frightened by the little snake, but her mouth was still asking.
Yu Xiu sneered in his heart, he was really disgusted by that posture, and he still looked like Yan SΓΉ on the surface, and replied: "When I went upstairs, I had a relationship with this little snake," and said that he looked at the gadget that had given up struggling, and continued: "I also have a relationship with this little snake." β
"It's just a brute, just kill it!" The woman standing at the bottom sneered coldly and looked at Yu Xiu with disdain.
Yu Xiu was not annoyed, and smiled slightly: "The guests attending the meeting are not idle people, not to mention, real people do not show their faces, although we are not afraid of them, but we must also avoid being entangled in trouble." β
"Yes, you can go quickly." The princess seemed to have lost her temptation.
Yu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and Orochimaru felt even more relieved.
"What did your master send you for?" Walking to the stairs, Yu Xiu asked Orochimaru in a soft voice, although he was puzzled, he also thanked Orochimaru for appearing to relieve him. I've always covered it up well, but I don't want to be seen by that woman.
"He asked me to ask you something." Orochimaru was going to sneak in, and then quietly approach this big killer, and finally quietly told him, but he didn't expect to be caught as soon as he appeared.
"I'm unmasked with him, what does he have to ask me?" Yu Xiu heard another footstep coming out of his room, and his hand clenched the Great Snake Pill even more.
As soon as the poor guy breathed a sigh of relief, he tasted the taste of breaking his muscles and bones again, and roared in his heart, this person not only looks like the female devil, but also the same ruthlessness, you know, although his size has been reduced many times, his strength is not discounted, but in the hands of this person, it is a soft little worm!
"Getting to the point." Hearing the sound of frowning footsteps, Yu Xiu said in a deep voice, and the strength in his hand was also a little looser.
"Phew...... Orochimaru exhaled, looked at the gloomy face, and solemnly said the sentence that Zi Yulou explained to him - "Do you have a sister?" β
"Hmm-" Orochimaru immediately regretted it, but he didn't have the strength to give birth to more mental activity, because he had passed out.
Yu Xiu looked at the gadget in his hand lying on his stomach, and the long snake letter hanging outside was still dripping with unknown liquid, so he hurriedly let go and threw it out, lifting his tail, but even so, the transparent liquid still burned several huge holes in the snow-white clothes, and there were even a few traces of black gas on the edge of the holes.
Yu Xiu felt that his hands were a little heavy, so he was bound to meet that man. Listening to the sound of footsteps getting closer, he simply stopped and waited for the man.
"Yu Xiu." The man looked at Yu Xiu, who turned around and waited for her, with a slight embarrassment on his face, but it also flashed, "The princess asked me to accompany you, if that person is well hidden, the two of us can also retreat." β
Yu Xiu didn't tear her down, and only said, "Then I want to thank the princess for her kindness." "Still going down the stairs unhurriedly, but there is a tumbling anger in my heart, what a difficult woman! The doubts hanging in his heart have not been answered, and the woman who is pretentious is still coming to make trouble, how can Yu Xiu's heart not be angry!
