No. 2 Base City, Shangqing City.

After Zhang Yan returned home by helicopter, he immediately went straight to the back mountain, where the Zhang family's mansion was built in front of a majestic peak, and the entire mountain peak behind them was their family's back garden.

Along a long bluestone staircase, Zhang Yan came to an antique Taoist temple halfway up the mountain, the internal space of the Taoist temple is not small, there are clear spring waterfalls, lotus pond medicine garden, etc.

In a large hall, a Taoist priest wearing a purple gold gossip robe is sitting on a two-person high Dan furnace to add firewood to it, and the pores around the Dan furnace are constantly spewing milky white smoke, and the smoke condenses above the Dan furnace, like a white tiger.

After the Taoist priest threw a piece of firewood in his hand, he turned his back to Zhang Yan, who pushed the door in from the outside, and said, "Yan'er, didn't you just go to Xiao's house this morning?" Why did you come back so quickly, did something happen? ”

"Grandpa, sure enough, I did find something amazing." Zhang Yan suppressed the excitement in his heart and handed over the tablet in his hand, which was playing the scene that happened in Xiao's house before.

Zhang Shidao raised his eyebrows and stood up from the futon, he was tall and straight, his hair was black, his face was ruddy, as if he was in the prime of life, he didn't look like an old man who was seventy years old at all, and he knew at a glance that he was a healthy man.

After he watched the video, his expression suddenly became solemn, "You have done a good job in this matter, come with me to meet your grandfather!" ”

Zhang Shidao waved his sleeves, let a few Taoist children on the side look at the Dan furnace, and led Zhang Yan towards a deep valley in the Taoist temple.

······

After Lin Fan left the Xiao family, he casually found a place to land, and then used the communicator to contact Wang Lin, and after learning her current location, he immediately rushed over.

There is a big lake called Yunwu Lake in the east of the No. 3 base city, and there is a high-end private club next to the Yunwu Lake, called 'Wendao Villa', which is far away in the suburbs, and the environment is very quiet.

After Lin Fan came here and reported his name to the doorman at the gate, a welcoming lady wearing a cheongsam soon invited him in very respectfully.

The decoration inside the villa is antique, ingenious, low-key and luxurious, and the grade is extremely high.

Among them, many men and women wearing ancient costumes like Lin Fan, and even monks and Taoist aunts, so his appearance did not attract everyone's attention.

"Lin Fan's side."

As soon as he entered the hall, Lin Fan heard a familiar voice coming from the left, and when he turned his head, Wang Lin and Xiao Xun'er were waving to him, and from the intimate demeanor of the two women, it could be seen that they got along very well.

The three of them didn't stay long before a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes came over and said respectfully to Xiao Xun'er: "Miss Xiao, the auction is about to start, and my young master asked me to take you in." ”

"Hmm."

Xiao Xun'er nodded faintly, and the three of them came to an exhibition hall under the leadership of the middle-aged man, and it didn't take long for some people to be led in one after another, and then the door of the exhibition hall was closed, compared with the hall outside, the number of people here was much smaller, and it could be seen that not everyone was able to enter here.

Suddenly, a man with a tall posture and an elegant temperament led the middle-aged man just now to the side, he behaved appropriately and smiled, "Xun'er, long time no see." ”

Xiao Xun'er nodded towards the man, and introduced to Lin Fan and Wang Lin: "This is Tang Shao, the owner of Wendao Villa, and he is the grandson of Tang Lao. ”

When he heard the word Donald, Lin Fan was nothing, but Wang Lin beside him was suddenly a little moved, there was only one person who could be called Donald in the No. 3 Base City, and that was the previous Great Archon Tang Zong.

This time, although Tang Zong retired from his position, his influence did not decrease at all, and even the first thing Chen Guan did before taking office was to visit Tang Lao, of course, this does not mean that the strength of the Chen family is not as good as the Tang family, but the Chen family's influence in the third base city is limited, and if Chen Guanda Archon wants to sit comfortably, he has to pay a visit to the dock.

"Come, the auction hasn't started yet, I'll show you around, the exhibits here are all collected from all over the world with a lot of painstaking efforts." Tang Shao looked at Xiao Xun'er and smiled.

"This gem was dug up from a ruin in Europe, and it is said that it was once cast by a sorcerer and brought luck to the wearer."

"This piece of jade has been identified by experts as belonging to the pre-Qin Fangshi, and it is said that it contains the method of immortality."

"It's ....."

Tang Shao led a few people around the exhibition hall, and when he introduced the treasures in the display cabinet, he was quite complacent, and he was also very complacent about the ins and outs of the treasures, Lin Fan noticed that everything here had a mysterious historical background, and a few of them were really strange.

For example, the bead in front of him, it seems to contain a strange power, when he saw it for the first time, his eyes were involuntarily attracted by it, and the whole person's mind seemed to fall into a whirlpool, if it wasn't for the spiritual power in the sea of consciousness to automatically dispel this power, it might take him a while to wake up.

Tang Shao was surprised to look at Lin Fan, who had come to his senses almost instantly, because he knew the mystery of this bead in advance, so he didn't look at it at all, so he was not attracted by it.

At this time, Wang Lin and Xiao Xun'er's minds were also attracted by the beads, but it didn't take long for Xiao Xun'er to wake up, after all, she was also a spiritual master, and Wang Lin was not so easy to get rid of the power of the beads, after Lin Fan saw this, she stretched out her hand to block her sight, her expression first showed a trace of confusion, and then suddenly woke up.

Tang Shao saw that the three of them had come to their senses before he spoke: "This bead was found from an unknown ancient tomb, it can attract people's minds, and it is a good magic weapon. ”

"This is the magic weapon?" Lin Fan was interested when he heard this, it turned out that there really was such a thing on the earth, didn't that mean that some legends in history were also true?

"That's right, this is one of the few artifacts I've collected." Tang Shao nodded and said, this kind of thing is very rare, and ordinary people have no chance to meet each other at all.

"Tang Shao, I heard that the finale treasure of this auction is a Taoist flying sword, why didn't you see it on display?" Xiao Xun'er asked, the purpose of her coming here this time was precisely this legendary flying sword.

Tang Shao showed a trace of helplessness on his face when he heard this, "I didn't expect that even you got the news, that's right, I did get a Taoist flying sword, but because this thing is so precious, for the sake of safety, I didn't show it here, but Xun'er, I suggest that you don't touch this flying sword, and you are guilty!" ”

"Oh? How so? Xiao Xun'er said in surprise, it could be seen from Tang Shao's tone that he actually didn't want to auction this flying sword, but for some reason, he had to do so.

After Tang Shao hesitated for a moment, he whispered two words: "Dao Alliance!" ”
