Chapter 154: Three Questions

The owner of the Pearl Pavilion replied: "I have prepared a few things from the pre-Qin Dynasty, and the finale is a piece of extraterrestrial iron. ”

The so-called extraterrestrial iron is a piece of iron that falls from the sky, often with a huge flame when it falls, as long as it is mixed with ordinary pig iron, it can make the forged weapon extremely sharp. If it is all cast with extraterrestrial iron, then it is a divine weapon that will be passed down for centuries.

Legend has it that the god soldier Mo Xie was cast from the dark iron outside the sky. However, the Outer Heaven Dark Iron rarely appears, often only a piece will appear for decades, and every time it appears, countless people will rush to it, especially those swordsmiths, who will not hesitate to break their fortunes to get a piece.

Zhao Feng thought for a moment and said: "In addition to the Heavenly Outer Xuantie, there will be another finale auction, but it is not a physical object, but three questions." ”

The owner of the Pearl Pavilion said suspiciously: "Forgive my subordinates for being stupid and don't understand what Childe meant." ”

Zhao Feng smiled and said: "When you put the news out, you said that you have invited the descendant disciple of the old man of Tianji, who can answer three questions for the person with the highest bid." ”

The old man Tianji in Zhao Feng's mouth is a reclusive old man who lives in Kunlun Mountain, and legend has it that he lived for more than a hundred years, and he didn't know anything. If you are lucky enough to meet him and have a few words of advice, you will benefit for a lifetime. Therefore, the world gave him the title of "Old Man of Heavenly Machine", but very few people have really seen him.

Many people did not hesitate to go to Kunlun in order to get him a word, looking for them in the mountains every day, among them there were many princes and generals, but most of them returned in vain, and only a few people were fortunate enough to see it. After returning, they have relieved their previous difficulties, and they will go to the next level in the days to come.

The weight contained in these eight words of the disciple of the old man of Tianji is extremely amazing, once it spreads, I believe that in less than three days, the threshold here will be broken by life.

The boss of the Pearl Pavilion exclaimed: "Son, you learned from the old man of Tianji, the master has repeatedly explained, and it must not be known to outsiders. ”

Zhao Feng said casually: "I didn't ask you to reveal my identity, what are you doing so nervously, what outsiders know is just a disciple of the old man of Tianji, and it has nothing to do with Zhao Feng." ”

"What exactly do you want to do, Childe?"

Zhao Feng smiled slightly, "You will know when the time comes, remember, this matter must reach the ears of Emperor Song." ”

The boss of the Pearl Pavilion is extremely efficient, and within two days, the news that the Pearl Pavilion invited the old man of Tianji to pass on the disciples spread throughout Kaifeng City, and the streets and alleys are talking about this matter everywhere, and even the Zhaoming Palace is also spreading.

It was also at this time that another news spread in the Zhaoming Palace, it is said that when King Ning was fighting with the Wu State, he was not very injured by cold arrows, and was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and he was afraid that he would not survive.

Compared with the mysterious old man of Tianji, this news can undoubtedly hook the minds of everyone in the palace more. King Ning was seriously injured, which meant that the hundreds of thousands of soldiers were leaderless, and once Wu attacked again, the whole army would inevitably be defeated, and at that time, the combined forces of Wu and Xia would be in Kaifeng.

For a while, the people in the palace were panicked, and their minds were fluctuating, but there was no change for the time being. At this time, a letter reached Yingyi's hand, and after she read it, she immediately went to the imperial study to see Gongliang Rongruo.

After listening to her recital, Gongliang Rongruo took a breath of cool air, "Are they all dead?" ”

"Yes, there is no life left, and one blow is fatal. is so clean and neat, it can be seen that the opponent's martial arts are far above them. Every time Yingyi said a word, Gongliang Rongruo's face became ugly. After a long time, he breathed a sigh of relief and sneered: "What a fifth man, quietly carrying me on my back to raise such a group of masters, it really impresses me." ”

"Your Majesty, do you want the slave maid to send a new group of people to spy on King Ning?"

"I'm afraid that if I send someone again, it will end up the same." Gongliang Rongruo paused, and then said, "Have you heard of the Pearl Pavilion's auction this time?" ”

Yingyi said knowingly: "Your Majesty is referring to the fact that the disciple of the old man of Tianji answered three questions?" ”

"Not bad. I have never heard of the Old Man of Tianji receiving apprentices, will the Pearl Pavilion use the name of the Old Man of Tianji to earn money? ”

Yingyi pondered for a moment and said, "Although the origin of the Pearl Pavilion is unknown, its reputation is extremely good, and there has never been a fraud in more than a hundred years. The slave maid heard that once, the man of the Pearl Pavilion was deceived into buying a fake Gu Ding, and it was auctioned by a merchant from Yongzhou once a month. Later, the Pearl Pavilion found out, sent someone to Yongzhou to retrieve the fake ding, and doubled the compensation to the merchant. So the slave maid felt that this matter should be true. ”

"Calculate the time, the auction will start tomorrow, right?"

"Yes, three o'clock tomorrow."

After a short silence, Gongliang said solemnly: "You go and make arrangements, and go with me to the Pearl Pavilion tomorrow." ”

"Yes." Yingyi was not surprised by this order, as early as when Gongliang Rongruo asked about the old man Tianji, she had already guessed a few points.

Since the Pearl Pavilion would auction the three questions of the disciples of the old man of the Heavenly Machine, countless people would come to the Pearl Pavilion every day to inquire about the situation. Batch after batch, never stopped.

On the day of the auction, the Pearl Pavilion was packed to the brim, and it was an unprecedented event. Because there were too many people, the Pearl Pavilion had to make restrictions, and only those who carried more than 10,000 taels of silver could enter. But even so, the Pearl Pavilion was full.

The silver taels brought by the guests were kept by the Pearl Pavilion as usual, and the amount recorded in the account books was more astonishing than the other, and more than 100,000 yuan abounded.

The auction started as scheduled, and as usual, it was a rare treasure, but the response was tepid, until the Heavenly Dark Iron was brought up, and the atmosphere became a little lively, and finally it was obtained by a swordsmith for 29,000 taels of silver.

After the Outer Heaven Darkiron was taken down, the rest of the people couldn't help but hold their breath, quietly waiting for the last auction item, which was also the purpose of their coming here.

The middle-aged man stood under the stage, looked around at the people sitting underground, and said loudly: "The next thing to be auctioned is the last thing in this auction." Presumably all of you have already heard of it, that is, the right to ask the disciple of the old man Tianji, that is, Mr. Tianji, the right to ask three questions. There is no starting price, the highest price wins! Begin! "Zhao Feng's identity is inconvenient to be exposed, so Pearl Pavilion is commensurate with Mr. Tianji.

"Fifty thousand taels!" As soon as the middle-aged man's voice fell, a wealthy businessman full of Ayaluo had already opened his mouth to report an astonishing number, and also set a record for the highest bid in the first round since the opening of the Pearl Pavilion.

"Seventy thousand taels!"

"One hundred thousand taels!"

……

The price has risen all the way, and in just one stick of incense, it has risen to 190,000 taels, and it is still increasing. Many people had no choice but to withdraw from the auction because they couldn't bear the crazy rise in prices, and only three or four people continued.

"Two hundred thousand taels." Gongliang Rongruo, who was sitting in the corner of the west side, frowned, and asked Yingyi, who was standing on the side, "How many silver tickets do we have?" ”
