Chapter 187: Buy one for your daughter-in-law
Xiao Ming also learned from Long Chengfei's mouth that the mortal world would hold a red yuan competition every two years, allowing cultivators to compete with each other.
Every year, the major families collectively fund and take out some pills or magic weapons as lottery heads.
Although the aura of the mortal world is thin now, and there are very few kinds of pills and magic weapons, in such a large-scale event, the things that are taken out as lottery heads are indeed a bit interesting.
What's more, at the moment when there are no sects, the various families compete for power and status, and they are bound to distinguish between the superior and the inferior.
And in each competition, which family member can come out on top, it also represents the improvement of the family's status, and the competition covers the entire continent, even the Tang family and the Zhao family have to be cautious.
"So, every time the people who come to the scene of the competition, they should be the most powerful people in the entire continent, right?"
Long Chengfei nodded.
"Sometimes, if the ascetics see something good, they will fight for it. However, in previous competitions, only the person from the Maison won every time. ”
"What about the Long family?"
Long Chengfei shook his head and said with some embarrassment: "Although the Long family participates in the competition every year, they have never won, after all, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are buildings outside the buildings." If you want to learn about other people's forces and compete with more people, this is a good choice. ”
Xiao Ming also fell into deep thought.
A good opportunity indeed.
Xiao Ming had always felt that his mana was good in the mortal world, but after meeting Xu Jinnian, he realized that he was too short-sighted before.
There are also those penances hidden in the deep mountains and rarely appearing, Xiao Ming is also deeply impressed.
If you can fight, you should get a lot of gains, right?
Xiao Ming nodded: "Since that's the case, then let's participate." ”
Long Chengfei hesitated: It's a pity that the Long family will not participate in this competition this year. ”
The previous auctions were held very successfully with the help of Xiao Ming, and they have already made a name for themselves in several families.
Some time ago, they just got another news, someone seems to have found some treasure, Old Man Long has gone to inspect it in person, even he has to go over, just staggered with the time this time.
Long Chengfei said: "I don't care, in the past, the Long family couldn't get the first place, and it was the same whether they went or not." It's just that in what name are you going to go? Are you going to join the Tang family, or are you going to go alone?"
"I've come up with a nice idea about this. ”
Xiao Ming not only wanted to test the abilities of various families this time, but also had another plan.
Some time ago, he had successfully established a company, but it had not yet started operation, and he just took the opportunity of this competition to immediately open up his popularity.
At the beginning of the competition, the elixir and magic weapons will definitely become sought-after goods, and there will be no sales at that time?
For the next period of time, Xiao Ming kept collecting in Heavenly Court.
In just a few days, a lot of pills were collected, and even the magic weapons that were consumed in the previous battle with Xu Jinnian were also received.
However, this time, Xiao Ming was very cautious, and specially selected a lot of magic weapons that were not of high grade, but could play a decisive role in the competition.
Before the start of the competition, Xiao Ming originally wanted to take a leave of absence, but Professor Xiao seemed to have guessed his decision and helped him organize an inspection activity in advance.
"There is a newly developed fossil area near the location of this competition, and I have already applied for an expedition for you, so you can go directly to it when the time comes. Report the year, just write it casually. ”
Xiao Ming nodded, puzzled, "Is there anyone else who wants to go besides me?"
"This event is a two-person group, I have a meeting in a few days, it's not convenient to go, so let Fu Xueer come with you. ”
Speaking of Fu Xue'er, Xiao Ming was unconsciously curious: "Professor Xiao, how did you choose Fu Xue'er in the first place, I don't think she is familiar with the use of those instruments." ”
When Master Xiao heard this, he was surprised: "No, I chose her after I interviewed her in person." And her biological attainments are on par with yours. ”
"Really?"
Xiao Ming was a little surprised, but recalling that time, Fu Xue'er did the experiments and those operations, which really made people a little confused.
Does she have any special skills?
Xiao Ming didn't ask again, leaving the matter behind.
If Fu Xue'er also goes over with her this time, the happiest person should be Xiao Qi.
"No problem, I'll go with her then. When the game starts, just find an excuse to act. ”
While Xiao Ming was planning, he quickly sorted out his things and prepared to go.
Fu'an is just a small urban area, and it has been unknown until the fossils were discovered.
The discovery of the fossil area was very dramatic, during the construction of the highway, someone reported that the construction team cut corners, and after the investigation, I did not expect to find that there are still historical relics more than 5,000 years ago hidden directly below the city.
This discovery immediately made this small urban area have a high reputation at home and abroad.
Since the discovery of this archaeological area, many scholars have come to observe and study every day.
Unexpectedly, this competition was held in such a mixed place.
Arriving in Fu'an and checking in at the hotel, Xiao Ming and the three of them went out for a walk.
It's a small city, and even the traffic is not convenient, but the previous construction was stopped in the middle of the construction, which made the traffic even more congested.
However, many merchants seized the opportunity and launched a lot of products related to local customs, and some jewelry made from the fossils of the creatures excavated this time.
The closer you get to that area, the more things are in the store, and even many of the owners are very enthusiastic to attract customers.
Xiao Ming was very interested in that fossil area, but it was not yet the turn of Shangqing University to visit, so he couldn't go in.
After standing on the periphery for a while, the owner of the shop next to him smiled and solicited business from him.
"This gentleman. You see, this is a hairpin specially designed in our store, which is designed according to Yang Guifei's favorite hairpin, and it also incorporates the fossils found this time, which is the best sold in our store. ”
Xiao Ming listened to him bragging, and couldn't help but smile and said, "How do you know what Yang Guifei's favorite hairpin is?"
The boss was choked up by the question, and hurriedly said: "Of course we have investigated it, you must buy such a beautiful hairpin, and it must be very suitable for your daughter-in-law." ”
Xiao Ming suddenly heard this, was stunned for a moment, and looked at the two people standing aside.
Xiao Qi pulled Fu Xue'er tightly, looking like this, it would indeed make people a little misunderstood.
