Chapter 221: The Mystery of the Gusu Family
"Gusu family, is it very strong?" Lu Ling was also interested, so he asked.
Wan Qingxia shook her head: "I don't know;"
"Don't know?"
Lu Ling asked in surprise: "You are the masters of this land, why don't you even know how strong your affiliated family is?"
Wan Qingxia recalled and said: "I really don't know, or they are the most mysterious, listen to my father, when the emperor founded the country, the Gusu family directly announced that they would submit to the empire, and promised to spend a huge amount of money to help establish it, and there was not the slightest contradiction between the two sides;"
"Moreover, there is a more mysterious point about the Gusu family, I have never heard of any enemies in them, and no one really understands their strength, at most, a descendant of one of their families goes out to experience some time, occasionally shows their strength, and is quickly forgotten by the public;"
"So strange?" Lu Ling looked at Wan Qingxia with some disbelief.
Wan Qingxia's eyes kicked out: "What kind of eyes are you, let me tell you, the forces outside the southwest border of the empire are the most complicated, but the empire has never had a garrison in that direction, do you know why?"
Lu Ling shook his head, and then suddenly looked in the direction of Gusu Mingqiu, he seemed to understand Wan Qingxia's words.
Wan Qingxia said quietly: "You guessed right, it is because the Gusu family is there, and the reason why the two demon soldiers in the east and west of the empire were able to be quickly exterminated before is that there is also the shadow of the Gusu family, but the demon soldiers in the northern region still developed after the empire invested a lot of effort, and finally it was solved by the envoy of the Nine Spirits Sect to solve the main trouble;"
In the end, Wan Qingxia pursed her lips.
Lu Ling was extremely curious: "Gusu family, what kind of family is this? The outside world is really getting more and more exciting;"
"Eighty thousand;" A low voice with some casual voice sounded, Lu Ling's eyes shrank, and he couldn't hold back his curiosity and looked over, because it was Gusu Mingqiu of the Gusu family who spoke, and the price was so high as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Isn't that the eldest young master of the Gusu family?
"Oh my God, just shout for 80,000 yuan, this is almost enough to buy a fifth-order low-level elixir;"
"The Gusu family, it's really still so mysterious;"
Qiu Shijie, Zishu, Ouyang Fuxue, everyone, including the second prince, looked at that man, their eyes flickered, that person was obviously very inconspicuous, but everyone had to face it.
"Is there anyone else who is offering a higher price?" Qiu Shijie turned his head and asked.
"I Shui Xinqi will pay 90,000;" Shui Xinqi also retracted his gaze and concentrated on bidding.
"I'll give 100,000;" It was Ouyang Fuxue who spoke this time, and he also had an inevitable posture.
"One hundred and fifty thousand;"
Again, everyone looked at the man again.
Gusu Mingqiu smiled at everyone: "It's just to see you increase the price a little bit, I don't know when I have to wait, it just so happens that I also like this thing, you can buy it back and play with it, you can increase the price at will, don't pay attention to me;"
Lu Ling had been observing Gu Su Mingqiu, and from the way he was talking now, he couldn't imagine how capable such a person could be.
Lu Ling muttered: "His sense of presence is too low;"
Lu Ling didn't pay attention, his words made Wan Qingxia next to him look at him in surprise.
On the other side, Ouyang Fuxue was a little annoyed, but she didn't dare to get angry, so she had to shout: "160,000, if there are still people who are higher than me, I will quit;"
"One hundred and sixty-one thousand, I'm sorry, Senior Brother Ouyang;" Shui Xinqi smiled slightly at Ouyang Fuxue.
Ouyang Fuxue turned his head angrily, and snorted angrily in his heart: "If it weren't for me to compete for the puppet behind me, how could there be anything to do with your Heavenly Star Sect;"
Just when Shui Xinqi was happy, Gusu Mingqiu shouted again: "200,000, no matter how high it is, I will quit;"
Shui Xinqi put away the smile on her face, glanced at the other party deeply, and didn't say a word, 200,000 yuan, which was obviously beyond the price in her heart.
Qiu Shijie looked around, and saw that everyone was silent before saying, "Congratulations to Brother Qiu Ming, now~"
"Wait, I'm sorry, I was distracted just now, I'll give 210,000;" Another voice interrupted Qiu Shijie, also making everyone pay attention.
"Wow, this colt is so generous, how can the princess get so much money;" Someone immediately asked in confusion.
"I heard that he was just a civilian before, so I don't know what the more than 200,000 first-grade energy crystals represent?"
"How can I say it, it hasn't come to the competition yet, so no one pays attention to him among the young masters and young ladies of the major family forces, and I can't imagine that he will start to show his sense of existence by himself;"
Wan Qingxia also looked at Lu Ling in great surprise, and then became a little annoyed, approached Lu Ling and whispered: "What are you shouting nonsense, this is 210,000 grade energy crystals, not 210,000 gold coins, if I didn't change those healing items for you, it would be fine, but all my net worth now is not enough for these 200,000;"
As soon as Lu Ling wanted to speak, Wan Qingxia got up and said apologetically to the audience: "I'm sorry, Brother Huang, and everyone, he doesn't know much about this, just now his ~;"
It's a pity that before Wan Qingxia finished speaking, her hand was grabbed by Lu Ling and pulled down to sit down again, Lu Ling didn't pay attention, Pang Ying's gaze at him at this time suddenly became as if he could burn a person.
But Lu Ling doesn't have time to care, if this girl says that the bid doesn't count this time, then he didn't get this baby, then it's distressing.
Wan Qingxia shouted angrily: "What do you want, you can't get the money out of the random price increase, do you know that it will be very embarrassing at that time;"
"I have money myself," Lu Ling quickly explained.
Wan Qingxia was stunned, what he heard, others also heard it, and they all looked at Lu Ling, and the look of doubt or ridicule in their eyes was very obvious.
"Tu Baozi, how can this kind of person participate in such a party?" The voice was not loud, but everyone was a martial artist in the Spirit King Realm or even the Spirit Emperor Realm, and everyone could hear it.
Lu Ling furrowed his eyebrows and looked in the direction where the voice came from: "Gu Su Xing, do you mean that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's eyes are low, or do you think that you are more shrewd than the Crown Prince?"
Gu Suxing's eyes trembled, and he replied viciously: "Shut up for me, I said that you are a dirt bun, and it has nothing to do with His Royal Highness the Prince, you don't sow discord among me and make a mystery;"
Lu Ling raised the tea in front of him and took a sip, and slowly took out an invitation card and put it on the table: "This is the invitation of His Royal Highness the Prince, I am fortunate to be invited, I believe that all of the people who can come here are geniuses or noble children, but the weight of this invitation card represents, in the eyes of your Gu Su Xing, is actually so low, soil buns, no qualifications? It turns out that you are more capable than the prince;"
"You~"
Gu Su stood up violently and raised his hand to Lu Ling, but he couldn't say a word, looking at Lu Ling's gaze as if he was about to breathe fire, but Lu Ling looked at the other party without fear.
Wan Qingxia was surprised: "What's wrong with him today?
Pang Ying tilted his head and looked at Lu Ling suspiciously, a little cute: "He has changed, why?"
The rest of the people also couldn't imagine that this colt was so bold, which made them even more interested, and this colt didn't seem to be as weak as the rumors.
Gu Suxing strode out of the seat, knelt down directly in front of Wanlin Danqi, and said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Second Prince, Gu Suxing has no intention of offending, what I said before was reckless, and I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Second Prince to forgive me for my inappropriate words;"
Seeing this, Lu Ling was just a little surprised, but most of the others seemed to have known this person for a long time, and they didn't have any special expressions.
Wan Lin just smiled and said: "Brother Gusu, what do you mean, didn't you just say it, today's tea party, there is only Wan Lin here, there is no prince, and you don't mean to do so, am I Wan Lin the kind of stingy person? Don't you get up quickly;"
"Mrs. Xie ~ Wan Gongzi;" Gu Su Xing thanked him in a deep voice, got up and returned to his seat, but his eyes swept towards Lu Ling from time to time, and the cold light flickered.
Qiu Shijie saw that the situation had stabilized, and after receiving Wan Lin's signal, he smiled and said: "Okay, big guy, don't hurt your harmony because of Shijie's meditation tree, it's not worth it, now, I announce, the auction continues;"
"Before, our colt bid 210,000 yuan, I wonder who is willing to bid higher?" Qiu Shijie asked again.
"Two hundred and twenty thousand;"
A very fast voice sounded, it was indeed Gu Suxing, staring at Lu Ling with deep eyes, with a sneering face.
Wan Qingxia wanted to persuade Lu Ling to give up, but he raised his hand to stop her, and Lu Ling said with a firm gaze: "My previous personality may be a little incompatible with this world, but in the future, I, Lu Ling, vow to be a man who does not cause trouble, is not afraid of things, and dares to take responsibility;"
Wan Qingxia didn't expect Lu Ling to come out like this suddenly, but she was still deeply attracted by Lu Ling's words, and she suddenly felt that at this time, the man next to her became majestic and began to really fascinate her.
"Two hundred and thirty thousand;" Lu Ling directly increased the price by 10,000, and also looked at Gu Suxing without admitting defeat.
But he thought in his heart: "This kid will put up with you when he soaks my prospective daughter-in-law in front of me, and yells at me, the young master has a good temper and doesn't care about you, and he actually makes you embarrassed, compare money with me, I can compare you to doubt life;"
"Two hundred and forty thousand;"
"Two hundred and fifty thousand;"
......
"400,000, you have the ability to follow, I promise to give it to you, you follow!" Lu Ling shouted out the price in one breath and directly provoked Gu Su Xing.
Gu Su Xing's eyes trembled, and the impulse that was just about to shout was stopped by him: "This is 400,000 first-grade energy crystals, who is this kid? It is impossible for me to really come from a small family as rumored, as the eldest young master of the Gusu family, it is extremely difficult for me to mobilize so many resources, this kid, should he not deliberately dig a pit for me to jump, I can't be fooled;"
After thinking clearly, he chose to shut up, simply closed his eyes and didn't look, out of sight and out of mind.
"Hmph, the bullshit Gusu family is very young, even a dirt bun of mine can suppress you obediently;" Seeing this, Lu Ling once again spoke excitedly.
Gu Suxing only felt that a breath of qi came from his heart and spread throughout his brain and chest, making him extremely uncomfortable, but in the end he couldn't help but argue with Lu Ling.
