Chapter 17: The Mysterious Ye Lao
"Grandpa. Listening to the muffled sound in front of the booth, Ye Shiling said unwillingly: "You have to think of a way, we can't let the Zhao family pick up this in vain." ”
"Although Jiulong Yanzun was photographed by the Zhao clan, it was useless for them to take it back to the clan. Seeing Ye Shiling on the side, she was indignant, and the young man said: "Presumably Ye Lao will definitely not let it go like this." ”
Hearing the purple figure announce the ownership of the furnace, the anger in the eyes of the brocade-robed man gradually subsided, and he sat tremblingly on the chair with the corner of the table, hiding the cold sweat on his back by pretending to be calm.
"Uncle Tong. After a while, the brocade-robed man looked at the old man standing beside him, and said in a hoarse voice: "You must save me this time." ”
"The old gentleman had a mediocre breath, but it wasn't as simple as we had seen before. The old man beside the brocade-robed man let out a long sigh, touched the white jade on his waist and said, "The matter has come to this point, and the only way to ask the elders of the clan for help is to ask for help." ”
"Uncle Tong, can't even you see through the origin of that old guy?" Seeing the old man crush the white jade of the sound, the man in the brocade robe finally became scared, and knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes and said: "You also saw it just now, I have no intention of making enemies with him, but they provoked first, and Sheng'er did this to maintain the dignity of the family." ”
"Young master, don't panic. The old man lifted up the figure kneeling on the ground and said sadly, "If the elders of the clan blame it, I will bear it alone." ”
Sheng'er thanked Uncle Tong. Seeing that the old man agreed, the man in the brocade robe with remorse on his face finally smiled, stood up and said slowly: "Uncle Tong's kindness, I, Zhao Sheng, will never forget." ”
"I'm ashamed to say that for the next lot, the elders of my Qiaotong Chamber of Commerce have not been able to identify its origin. After the Zhao clan photographed the silence of the furnace, Qiao Tong's elegant voice floated on the venue again, and after calling the attendants to slowly put the behemoth on the backstage on the booth, Ying Ying smiled and said: "All the adults here are well-informed, if you see its value, I hope you can take it in time." ”
With the shaking of Qiao Tong Yaran's fingers, the black silk cloth slowly opened in the fiery gaze of everyone, and the mutilated huge beast body gradually appeared in everyone's sight.
"The corpse of a monster?"
"Yu Sheng, are you okay?" Ye Shiling stood up from the chair, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat stains on the top of Yu Sheng's head, and said with concern: "If you are not feeling well, just lie on the chair and rest for a while, it is just a dead corpse of a demonic beast, and it won't be too much to look at." ”
"Shiling, I'm fine. Holding back the throbbing of his heart, Yu Sheng looked at the old man beside him with his eyes slightly wide and said, "Old Ye, do you know where this demon corpse came from?"
"The old man has traveled north and south for decades, but he has never seen such a strange beast. Ye Lao paused and said, "If you are interested, you might as well take a picture of it." ”
"Can't you even see where it came from?" the young man shook his head in disappointment, stood up on the table and said, "Eight thousand gold coins." ”
"Uncle Tong, the other side has made a move. The brocade-robed man saw Yu Sheng shouting out the bid, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he looked at the old man beside him for help and said, "Since they are involved, presumably the corpse of this strange beast is not as simple as an ordinary beast, if we can take a picture and bring it back to the clan......"
"Young Master. The old man hurriedly stopped, "We must not have a confrontation with them until the elders of the clan arrive. ”
"Well, that's fine. The brocade-robed man hung his head, stared in the direction of Ye Lao, and said coldly: "After the elders of the clan come, I will see how arrogant that old thing is." ”
"Nine thousand gold coins. ”
"I said, brother, you still don't have to be delusional about the corpse of this demonic beast. After the man in the corner of the hall shouted a bid, the old man sitting next to him hurriedly dissuaded: "Although this time it is not a bid from the Zhao family, sitting in the private room opposite is not something you can afford to provoke." ”
As soon as the dissuasion of the old man next door fell, the impatient bidding voice of the rest of his life came again: "Ten thousand gold coins." ”
Silence, a deathly silence, became the main theme of the auction at this time after the price was raised again for the rest of his life.
"Ten thousand gold coins at a time. ”
After a long time, Qiao Tong Yaran raised his eyes with a timpani hammer, a streamer flashed between his starry eyes, looked at the silent venue and smiled slightly: "10,000 gold coins twice, 10,000 gold coins three times, deals." ”
"I didn't expect that in this auction, the Zhao family would be so honest. Seeing that Yu Sheng took a picture of the dead body of the beast with 10,000 gold coins, Ye Lao was quite surprised and said, "You kid has picked up a treasure." ”
"I don't know where this beast body came from, and it's abrupt to make a rash move. Looking at the smile on the corner of Ye Lao's mouth, Yu Sheng shook his head and said, "It's a lesson that I spent money on." ”
"You. Ye Lao sat up and smiled: "You can just steal the fun." ”
After the * brought by Jiulong Yan Zunding, the mysterious beast body was also included in the bag for the rest of his life, and the few medicinal materials that appeared next, except for the cold yin grass that was photographed by the Zhao family, Tianji Water and Runzhi Vine were all under the name of Ye Lao.
In the evening, the mysterious auction organized by the Qiaotong Chamber of Commerce finally came to an end with the gradually darkening sky.
"Ye Lao, the younger brother of the rest of your life. In a room on the second floor of the Qiaotong Chamber of Commerce, Qiaotong Yaran handed over a purple gold card and said: "The things taken by the two of you, Yaran has already arranged for them to leave the warehouse, and I believe that it won't be long before they can be delivered to the two of you." ”
"Yaran girl. Ye Lao took the gold card and handed it to Yu Sheng, nodded and said, "Go and tell Mingshan that the old man is waiting for him here." ”
"Ye Lao, I don't know what this gold card is for?" Looking at the purple figure and walking out, Yu Sheng looked at the card in his hand that could not be seen and said, "Can you give our lots some discounts?"
"Discounts are indispensable, and this gold card is nothing more than a trick they use to trick you. Ye Lao, who looked out the window, turned around, leaned on the back of the chair and slowly closed his eyes and said, "If you don't like it, I'll give it back to her later." ”
"Since you took it, let's stay. Yu Sheng put the card into the ring, glanced at Ye Shiling, who was looking left and right, sat down next to Ye Lao, and said in a low voice: "I don't know where the furnace that was photographed by the Zhao family is now." ”
"It's been handed over to the Zhao family, but it's not out of the city yet. The old man smiled indifferently, listened to the footsteps that gradually came, lowered his voice and said straight to the point: "I have made a mark on the furnace, and I will take it after I leave the city." ”
"The rest of the life of the younger generation. As soon as Ye Lao's words fell, Yu Sheng hurriedly stood up, leaned over and said to the old man in front of the purple-clothed figure: "I have seen the predecessors of Mingshan." ”
"Mr. Ye, it's been a long time. The old man in the robe walked quickly to Ye Lao, stared at Yu Sheng, and said, "I heard Yaran say that you brought a young man over this time, and looking at his dignified appearance, he must be a dragon and phoenix among people." ”
"Mingshan, although this furnace was inserted by the Zhao clan, I still want to thank you. A bright light flashed in Ye Lao's eyes, and he flicked his fingers at the old man in front of him, and a jade bottle appeared on the table with a "bang": "The things you ask the old man to do are in this jade bottle, and whether you succeed or not depends on your own creation." ”
"Mingshan, thank you Ye Lao. The old man in the robe held the jade bottle on the table with both hands, and said excitedly: "Ye Lao's great kindness to my Qiaotong Chamber of Commerce, I will never forget it." ”
"It's just a deal, not a kindness. After receiving Qiao Tong Yaran's acceptance ring containing the lot, the old man nodded to the young man beside him, stood up and said, "The old man still has important things to do, so let's leave it today." ”
"Great Elder. After the three of Ye Lao left, Qiao Tong Yaran looked at the old man in the robe with a red face, and asked without saying anything: "Yaran has a sentence, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”
"But it doesn't hurt for you to say that. The old man with a flushed face looked at the jade bottle held in the palm of his hand, and sat down on the chair with shaking steps: "Before that, do you know what treasures are in this small jade bottle?"
"The Great Elder regarded something as a treasure, and Yaran didn't dare to speculate. Qiao Tong looked at the old man with a smile on his face, and said softly: "Mr. Ye is just a mountain doctor, why is my Qiao Tong Chamber of Commerce so flattering him?"
"Presumptuous. As soon as Qiao Tong Yaran's words fell, the old man in the robe scolded loudly: "The identity of Mr. Ye, how can you guess at will by a yellow-haired girl." ”
"Yaran knows his mistake, please ask the Great Elder to punish him. ”
"That's it, your experience is still shallow, and Ye Lao has a good impression of you, so I won't pursue it this time. The old man in the robe opened the jade bottle, took out the cyan pill inside, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed: "Judging from the black pill in my palm, can't you guess his true identity?"
"Is it possible?" Qiao Tong Yaran paused and said in surprise: "This old Mr. Ye is still a hidden cultivator?"
"The physician and the Dan master are in the same lineage, and it is natural that you will be wrong about his origin. The old man in the robe said slowly: "But in the eyes of this Xuanjun Dan Lao refined by Ye Lao, he is not as simple as an ordinary Dan Master, not to mention that he also has the strength of a four-rank Dan Master." ”
Hearing the words of the Great Elder, Qiao Tong Yaran gasped. has been crawling and rolling in the shopping mall with a mixture of dragons and snakes for many years, how could she not know the energy of this "Four Rank Dan Master", and in addition to the strong Jun Realm cultivation, the identity of this "Dan Master" alone does not know how many forces will be offered as a seat, not to mention that it is still a Four Rank Dan Master who can refine the Xuanjun Dan.
"Is this Ye Lao really a fourth-rank Dan master?" Qiao Tong shook his body and said tremblingly: "Fortunately, Great Elder, you are far-sighted, and we didn't have a bad relationship with him." ”
"Mr. Ye is really not visible. The old man in the robe looked at the jade bottle in front of him with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that this time the Zhao clan really kicked an iron plate." ”
