After the evacuation in the morning, there were not many people left to participate in the Temple Street Trade Fair, and most of the thirteen people in the Far East had returned, although the Temple Street was still crowded, but it was still bustling at the usual level, and the increase was a team of Temple Street patrol sergeants.

The venue was noisy, except for the five high poles, and the corridors on both sides were covered with silk cloth.
Xiao Wu led everyone to the silk tent on the right, and Dugu Tianxing was talking to a group of people from the major shopkeepers of China Merchants Bank, listening to the main points of Wen Yufeng and several shopkeepers.
Seeing the three little ladies of Shan Deputy Daduhu and Sima Shenxian coming in, Tianxing greeted him and said that he was annoyed.
Wang Jiangnan yelled to start quickly.
Dugu Tianxing smiled first and said Don't be in a hurry, let's take a look at the opening dance first. led the crowd to the stage.
There was no one in the venue to preside, and the wealthy businessmen from all over the country gathered together to chat, and Weng Wen was noisy. Tianxing also ignored it, and sat down in the center of the front row with the three princesses, and then sat down next to the three little ladies in the back row.
After a while, three crisp chimes sounded on the left, and the venue began to be quiet, followed by the sound of the gonghou, mixed with the sound of the flute, a team of more than ten women, each with blue eyes and a high body, were all dressed in a blue emerald cigarette shirt, scattered flowers and water mist and green grass pleated skirts, wearing a light blue emerald water thin smoke veil, if the shoulders were cut into a waist, and the muscles were like condensation and gas. Fold the waist to micro-step, showing the wrist in the light yarn. The eyes are full of spring water and clear waves, and a hollow golden hairpin is obliquely inserted in the bun on the head, decorated with a little purple jade, and the tassel is sprinkled on the green silk. The fragrance is delicate and delicate, the beauty is more beautiful than the flower, the fingers are like peeling the green onion roots, the mouth is like containing Zhu Dan, and the smile is moving. The face of the spring water is like clotted fat, the white jasmine smoke is soft, the white mopping smoke cage plum blossom water skirt, the body is soft smoke, and it is really a bit of a powdery and crispy and delicate taste.
This is a group of yaksha barbarian girls, with the ethereal and soothing sound of musical instruments in the shed began to dance, Wang Jiangnan knew that this is the most popular neon dress and feather dance nowadays, she has seen it in Kyoto a few times, all of which were appreciated by her father when she took her to participate in the banquet of a wealthy family, and she was also intoxicated many times, and she also took Zheng Suier and a few acquaintances to practice secretly.
I didn't expect to see this gorgeous scene in this desolate Far East border town, and the three little ladies and the three princesses couldn't help but cheer up.
In the Qingyin Yan Dance, an ethereal and distant woman's singing voice sounded.
Tinggao is looking at the extreme, and Jiang Lian has not returned, but he is sick but has no strength. The fan is gradually thinning, Luo Yi is at the beginning, and the streamer is passing through the gap. Sigh apricot beam, double swallow like a guest. Where are the people, a curtain of light moon, as if shining in color.
Silence, chaotic moaning wall. Moving the letter, clear the sorrow like weaving. Ponder the young waves. Dili Guan Mountain, Liuxia Fangmo, falling red without information. Dark water, trickling blue. Drifting for a long time, what does it mean now, drunk and lying on the side of the wine.
With the women on the stage dancing in light clothes, it is like the Nine Heavens Yao Pond, the fairy music is fluttering, and everyone in the audience is suddenly fascinated, and there are poems:
When dancing, the cold eats the spring breeze, and the jade hook fence is on the brocade silk.
The dancer in front of him is like jade, and he doesn't wear other people's vulgar clothes.
The rainbow dress shook the crown step by step, and the day was full of Pei Shanshan.
Wan Ting doesn't seem to let Luo Qi go, and Gu Tingle is suspended.
The chimes and flutes were mixed with each other, and the sound of hitting and playing was loud.
[At the beginning of the Dharma; The crowd is not happy, only the golden stone silk bamboo is the first to speak,
The same is true at the beginning of the neon dress. ]
The six pieces of the scattered prelude are not moved, and the balcony is lazy and does not fly.
[There is no beat for six times in the loose order, so I don't dance.] ]
At the beginning of the shooting, the autumn bamboo pole was cracked and the spring ice was dismantled.
[There is a shot at the beginning of the middle order, also known as a beat order.] ]
Drifting back to the snow light, Yanran sent the dragon frightened.
The willow is weak after the small hanging hand, and the clouds are about to be born when the slanted skirt is swaying.
[The four sentences are all the original state of the neon dance.] ]
The moth is slightly overwhelmed, and the wind sleeves are low and affectionate.
Shangyuan dotted the calyx green, and the queen mother waved goodbye Feiqiong.
[Xu Feiqiong, Calyx Luhua, are all fairies.] ]
The complex sound is urgent twelve times, and the jumping beads shake the jade He sonorous.
[Ni Shang Qu Fan ends twelve times.] ]
Xiangluan danced but retracted his wings, and the crane song was long at the end.
After a dance, the women on the stage withdrew, and there was silence in the audience, and after a while, Tianxing took the lead in applauding, and suddenly the applause was thunderous, and Wang Jiangnan slapped his palms red.
Then a rapid drum sounded, and a petite bearded girl began to whirl the dance to the beat, which was the popular Hu whirlwind dance in Yan Tang.
This dance is also described in verses:
Hu Xuannu, Hu Xuannu. The heart should be stringed, and the hand should be drummed.
The strings and drums sounded with their sleeves raised. The snow flutters and dances.
Turn left and right tirelessly, thousands of turns of time.
There is no comparison between the things in the world, and the wheels are slow and the whirlwind is late.
Everyone in the audience applauded again and again, and they were still unsatisfied until Hu Nu left.
At this time, a round man in a silk robe came to the stage, it was the chief treasurer of Far Eastern Merchants Bank.
"Did the singing and dancing just now get into your eyes?"
"Okay, a few more," the audience laughed.
"It's a pity, let's have an auction, everyone gathers for the common things in my temple street, let's not be redundant, how about everyone choosing the goods they like while watching the song and dance?"
Yuan Bao didn't say much, clapped his hands twice, and the four yaksha girls each held a glass cup and came up.
The bright cyan glass cup is crystal clear, with a layer of jewel-like ice particles, on which is the black caviar, the particles are round and full, the color is clear and transparent, and even slightly glowing with golden luster, and the floating layer on the cup is curling with clear mist, and everyone can't help but swallow a mouthful of water.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there is no need for me to say more, the top black caviar in Shaohai is only one liter, divided into four parts, each share starts at 100 gold, and each bid is up to the hardware, everyone starts."
"Two hundred gold" Aroma, a businessman from Japan, directly asked for the price.
Then Zhang Degui, the second shopkeeper of Wanhualou, raised the number plate, which was made of bamboo and wood, marked with the number of the big food.
Liaodong shipbuilder Zhou Xin, Goryeo master Pu Xingtang sent to represent the wealthy businessman Li Yitang, and the giant businessman Wu Xing from the Kanto raised the card to increase the price at one time, until finally Zhang Er, the shopkeeper of Wanhualou, auctioned two copies at the price of 460 gold each, and the Goryeo wealthy businessman Li Yitang and Wu Xing won one respectively.
The first auction item was not very popular, and it was not outrageous that a liter of top-grade black caviar could not be auctioned for 1,500 gold.
The big shopkeeper of the ingots didn't care, just like the caviar was just used to accompany the meal at the banquet, the big shopkeeper of the ingots clapped his hands again, only to see the four white men of the ghost country carry out a white veil to cover things, placed in the center of the high platform, the four of them stood aside, the ingots stretched out their chubby hands to remove the white yarn, this is a Hu bed, a lazy yaksha woman on the Hu bed lying on her side, although the body is neatly dressed, it makes people think about it, and more importantly, the Hu bed is covered with a white bear skin.
The whole snow-white bear skin is like a pile of clouds, the red bed, the four bearded and shirtless men stand hideously, the combination of beasts and beauties, the scene makes people's blood swell.
"Two pieces of good white bear skin, which have the effect of keeping warm and removing moisture, the starting price is 500 gold, and the price is increased by 20 gold each time"
In the end, the Goryeo merchant Park Il-shi and the Kyoto Umun Silk Zhuang Woo Woo Woo Woo who was actually a plum blossom from Lijingmen won one at a price of 1,600 gold.
The next ten Baishan thousand-year-old ginseng were auctioned for 10,000 gold, and a mammoth ivory carried by two giants was auctioned for 15,000 gold.
You must know that nowadays, a medium-sized family only uses ten gold a year, and the rich businessmen spend only ten taels of silver on a banquet, and the three things have reached 30,000 gold under the auction, and the three little ladies are also smacked when they see it.
At the time of the auction of ginseng, Tianxing invited the three little ladies to return to the silk tent on the right to start the next round of display preparations.
The ingots got off the high platform, a team of temple street sergeants on the stage performed the music of King Qin's breaking formation, the tall and majestic sergeants wore a white mask, each holding a blade, the music was majestic, the action was mighty, and the audience was cheering.
At the end of the dance, a row of Maiko walked out from the left side of the tent, holding a plate and pot, on which were placed melons, fruits, snacks, drinks and cigars, and the guests were happy and took what they wanted, and the scene was jubilant.
The serving Maiko retreated, and order was restored to the audience, and ethereal music sounded on the side of the stage, and an ethereal and hoarse female voice sounded;
I am a fox who has practiced for thousands of years
A thousand years of practice and a thousand years of loneliness
In the dead of night, someone could hear me crying
I could be seen dancing in the dim light
I am a fox waiting for a thousand years
A thousand years wait for a thousand years of loneliness
Who planted the Gu of love in the rolling red dust
Who drank the poison of love in the vast sea of people
When I love you, you are destitute and studying hard
When you leave you, you are on the gold list, the title of the cave room, the candle
Can I do another dance for you?
I am the white fox you released thousands of years ago
You see the clothes are fluttering, the clothes are fluttering
The sea and the mountains have all turned into nothingness
Can I do another dance for you?
Just for that review of your parting moments
You see the clothes are fluttering, the clothes are fluttering
Heaven and earth have been reduced to nothingness for a long time
Wang Jiangnan, Zheng Suier, and Zheng Xiuer made a grand debut.
Wang Jiangnan was dressed in men's clothes, wearing a blue Yunxiang Fu Bat pattern scholar suit, with a rhino horn belt tied around his waist, only a white jade pendant draped in an ink-colored satin coat, and the snow-white fox fur on the hood was windless and automatic, which was eye-catching.
Zheng Sui'er wore a white fox fur with a white coat to wrap her delicate figure, a snow-white fox fur hat covered her hair bun, her long hair like ink paint hung down on her back shoulders, and her goose egg face was like snow and jade, reflecting the white fox fur like ice jade, which was beautiful and lovely, ethereal and refined.
Zheng Xiuer wore a crimson brocade trench coat, embroidering strange and strong branches on the fabric with dark yellow silk threads, and embroidering plum blossoms blooming with golden silk threads, extending from the skirt to the waist, a snow-white fox fur scarf scarf was the icing on the cake, and it was extravagant.
With the lyrics, the scholar who played the title of the gold list was talking sweetly with the newlyweds, and the lonely white fox stared lonely.
Everyone in the audience listened to the ethereal and poignant singing, and enjoyed the performance of the three little ladies who were like Xuannu descending to earth, and they were all stupid.
At the end of the song, the three little ladies were side by side with the stage, Dugu Tianxing paced on the stage, beckoning to the audience, he was dressed in green clothes and black hair today, his clothes and hair were fluttering and elegant, not tied or tied, slightly fluttering, lined with a long figure, it was also a jade tree in the wind. Hitomi flowed, and a casual smile flashed in her eyes.
Dugu Tianxing came to the center of the stage, looked at the three little ladies with his hands behind his back, and saw that the three little ladies were shyly lowering their pink necks, and the demon wolf Tianxing walked to the front of the stage and asked everyone in the audience loudly, "The thousand-year-old white fox, incarnated as a maid, the beauty is loved, and the red sleeves add fragrance, let me ask which of you doesn't have such a reverie?" ”
Except for the three princesses in the audience and Kalisa of the Yaksha country, they are all men, and they are just laughing when they hear it, and even the three princesses are laughing.
"Of course, this auction is not Mei Jiao Niang, but the best white fox fur in this silent snow field, Ben Langjun dares to say that such a quality of good white fox fur is only available in our Far East in the world, there are only ten strikes, not only sold."
"Give your beloved woman a white fox fur hat, representing your deep heart, what woman can forget?"
"And now, you can have this heart for only five hundred gold, everyone, what are you waiting for? Hold up your number plate, think of the woman who is waiting for you in your hometown, give yourself a little gentle pride, and buy it! ”
I have to say that the Demon Wolf Tianxing's demagogic power is super strong, and after a few words, the number plate under the stage is like a forest.
"Okay, Fan Yanglu's shopkeeper, six hundred gold, do you remember the wife who is in love with each other?"
"Liaodong Jin Langjun, six hundred and fifty gold, do you think you are going to please the wife of that childhood sweetheart?"
"Patriarch Kalisa, seven hundred gold, you are already the number one beauty in the Yaksha country, and if you have a white fox, how can your subjects live?"
"But also Prince, what? A thousand gold? Okay, you have a white fox fur, go to Chang'an, Kyoto, the fox fur appears, which woman doesn't fall in love with you? ”
"Li Langjun of Goryeo is 1,200 gold, I heard that the noble master Pu Xingtang has a stunning young girl, and she is matched with the noble white fox Qiu, it is naturally a match made in heaven."
"The shopkeeper of Yuwen in Kyoto, 1,500 gold, I have to say, the distinguished guests from Kyoto are heroic, as long as you put this pure fox fur to the storefront, to ensure that those ladies and ladies are eager to come."
"Shopkeeper Zheng, shopkeeper Zheng of Far Eastern Leather Goods Company, two thousand gold! Lao Zheng, are you preparing a dowry for your beloved daughter? Haha, your son-in-law is from my temple street, this is borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, do you still have a daughter? There are many single men on our Temple Street, how many daughters do you have, and these ten white fox Qiu Ke have all returned to Temple Street. ”
“......”
"Patriarch Kalisa is bidding again, how much? Five thousand gold? Okay, it looks like you're determined to win? Among the gentlemen present, which one is more expensive than this lady? ”
"Okay, Goryeo Li Langjun 8,000 gold, Goryeo Li Langjun 8,000 gold once, Goryeo Li Langjun 8,000 gold twice...
"The Yuwen shopkeeper here has bid again? How much? Eight thousand five hundred gold? Good, good, Yuwen shopkeeper 8,500 gold"
"Dongying's VIP Arome 10,000 gold, 10,000 gold"
"Shopkeeper Li bid again, 11,000 gold, 11,000 gold"
“。。。”
"Patriarch Kalisa fifteen thousand gold, fifteen thousand gold"
"Fifteen thousand gold once, fifteen thousand gold twice, is there still a bid? Are there any bids left? Good fifteen thousand gold three times, deal! ”
