Chapter Ninety-Three: The Auction Begins!
Of course, Chu Ming also began to worry about Chu Zhongtian's safety, after all, since the palace was full of people, the cultivation of the other party would not be bad, at least not weaker than Chu Zhongtian.
Chu Ming didn't think that as a royal family with the number one family in the world, the existence of the five major sects would not have the strength to deal with Chu Zhongtian.
Fortunately, Chu Zhongtian came back that night, looking very tired, and his whole breath was a lot sluggish, and he didn't light the lamp at that time, Chu Ming couldn't see the specific situation of Zhongtian clearly.
"I'm fine, just take a rest, you can sleep first" Chu Zhongtian's voice was very hoarse, and after leaving this sentence, he went straight back to his room.
Chu Ming didn't ask any more questions, the next day the three of them all got up early in the morning, Chu Zhongtian didn't seem to have the fatigue of yesterday, although he didn't fully recover, but the whole person was also in good spirits, because the breath had always been hidden by Chu Zhongtian.
Although he can use his soul power to investigate, Chu Ming is not confident that the exploration of soul power can escape Chu Zhongtian's perception, Chu Ming is confident that his soul power is not lost to the ordinary heavenly realm powerhouse, but the soul level of the heaven and earth realm powerhouse can no longer be judged by common sense, in order not to expose his spiritual realm cultivation can be released soul power, Chu Ming gave up this idea.
So as for how much Chu Zhongtian has recovered, everyone doesn't know. But since Chu Zhongtian didn't want to tell them, then they didn't ask.
Since Chu Zhongtian came, the boss's attitude has changed a lot, and he even asked the attendant to bring food every day, although it is not a rare medicinal meal, but it is also quite delicate and delicious.
Chu Zhongtian didn't refuse, since someone deliberately stammered, it was not a big deal, if he insisted on refusing, it would give others a feeling of looking down on him.
The three of them chatted while eating breakfast.
"Father, why are you here this time?" asked Chu Ming.
Zhou Ze also stopped what he was doing and looked at Chu Zhongtian curiously. It stands to reason that because of Chu Zhongtian's strong return, the Chu family is definitely a dominant family in Shifeng City now, even in the surrounding cities, it is definitely the overlord, and it can already be among the first-class big families in the Tianfeng Country. But because of this, the genius of Chu Zhong should stay in the clan to deter and prevent being coveted by other families.
Although one family may not be the opponent of the Chu family, what about two, three, or even more? It is difficult to guarantee that no one will take risks.
"Hey" Chu Zhongtian sighed lightly, and did not shy away from Zhou Ze, and talked about the reason, "A few days ago, your third uncle went out for something and was ambushed. All the guards and entourage were killed, only your third uncle broke through, but he was also seriously injured, and he was poisoned, even if I made a move, I could only suppress it and not get rid of it."
"Later, Li Qiaoshan of Baicaotang personally came to diagnose and treat it, this is a fire poison, and it needs a cold attribute or fire attribute elixir to eradicate it."
The so-called cold attribute is to take the meaning of mutual restraint, and the fire attribute is to use the principle of fighting poison with poison. But in order to suppress the fire poison that the powerhouses of the Heaven and Earth Realm cannot get rid of, the grade must not be low.
"Cold Attribute, Fire Attribute?" Zhou Ze frowned and muttered, suddenly as if he thought of something, "Could it be that Uncle Chu is here for that Red Flame Flower?"
Chu Zhongtian nodded undeniably, Chu Ming didn't know why, "Red Flame Flower?"
"Well, a few months ago, someone claimed that the Chiyan Flower was born, which attracted many people on the rivers and lakes to scramble, and then disappeared, and some time ago there was news that the Chiyan Flower would appear at this auction, and it was also one of the finale treasures of this auction. ”
Chu Zhongtian also received "This Red Flame Flower is extremely rare, it generally grows at the mouth of a volcano, and it slowly evolves from the essence of the fire element. It is ranked as a medium-grade elixir, and it is especially beneficial for martial artists who practice fire attributes. ”
Chu Ming didn't take the rest of the words to heart, but kept the words "your third uncle" in his heart, Chu Ming's third uncle is also Chu Liufeng, he doesn't care how he treats him, but Shuang'er's hatred can't be ignored. That person in time was his third uncle. It was precisely because of his identity that he did not completely kill Chu Tian and Chu Feng in the first place.
Chu Zhongtian also discovered Chu Ming's abnormality, and Chu Zhongtian was also very embarrassed when he looked at the other party's face that was getting darker and darker, "Ming'er, your third uncle already knows that he has done something wrong, and he has been making up for it, for the sake of the Chu family......"
"What does he do to me for the sake of the Chu family? If I remember correctly, I would have already broken off with the Chu family," Chu Ming said coldly
"Ming'er ......"
"I've eaten well, I'll leave first if there's nothing to do" Dropping this sentence, Chu Ming turned around and left
Zhou Ze looked at the two of them, finally sighed and chased them out.
After another two days, Chu Ming still had such an attitude, and Chu Zhongtian could only sigh, although he was more inclined to Chu Ming, but he also didn't care about family affection at all, looking at the poison in Chu Liufeng's body but was indifferent.
Chu Ming actually understands this truth, but many times it is understood that whether he can let it go is another matter.
The worst thing is Zhou Ze, there is a conflict between other people's father and son, and he is caught in the middle. I can only sigh again and again every day.
............
Finally, on the fifth day of their arrival in the national capital, the auction began.
However, the three of them didn't go together, Chu Ming and Zhou Ze left early in the morning.
In the south of Tianfeng City, there is an imposing building located there, flat and stable, more than 30 meters high, there is a huge plaque hanging above the gate, which is carved with five imposing golden characters - Wanbao Zhai.
Looking down from the sky, more than a dozen torrents of people appeared around Nuoda Wanbaozhai, and they were rushing along the streets or lanes. Among them, there are rich people who sit in sedan chairs, noble ladies who have low-level demon beast pets, and young handsome men who ride horses, of course, more are martial artists who are born in the face, accounting for seventy percent of the total number.
Outside the gate, Chu Ming looked at the big characters on the plaque and walked in side by side with Zhou Ze.
Naturally, there are people at the door to guide them, and the guests will be seated in batches, after all, there are high and low identities, strength and weakness, if a large group of people are mixed together, even if there is no contradiction, the friction is absolute.
"Who are the two?" The welcoming lady who was guarding outside the gate saw at a glance that the young man was extraordinary, and hurriedly walked over to ask.
"We are the inner disciples of the Water Cloud Sect" Zhou Ze stepped forward and handed the token to the other party.
One of the major sects of the Shuiyun Sect, and he dared to participate alone, thinking that his status in the sect was not low, Miss Yingbin was secretly glad that she did not neglect the two, and said with a slight smile, "The two of you are here, please, I will take you to the private room upstairs." ”
When he came to the interior, Chu Ming found that the entire building was divided into six floors, and the surrounding walls were inlaid with many gold and crystal stones, which were combined into a beautiful pattern, which did not look vulgar at all, but made people feel a sense of happiness. There are many compartments on each floor, and the fewer compartments there are, the larger the relative footprint. And the further up there is a huge platform at the bottom, like a small square, with a raised stand in the middle. The height is about the same as the second floor.
Now the welcome lady took Chu Ming and the others to a private room on the east of the third floor.
The private room is not big, and there are not many things inside, only a few monster leather chairs and a rosewood gold-inlaid table full of snacks and fruits, and some landscape paintings on the walls.
"You two can tell me if you need any service, I'm just outside the private room. "She is not the only hostess, everyone is responsible for a private room.
Chu Ming said: "Okay." ”
The welcome lady went out and brought the door, and Zhou Ze sat on the monster leather chair, soft and fragrant.
"The private room is good, and there are monster leather chairs to sit on. ”
Chu Ming sat on the leather chair next to Zhou Ze and said with a smile: "Are you a little promising, okay? What about your image in the sect in normal times? Is it all pretended?"
Zhou Ze didn't care at all, his body moved in, found a comfortable position, and picked up a fruit by the way and bit it, "That's right, it's pretended, how do you know?"
Forehead~
didn't want to continue chatting with him on this topic, Zhou Ze continued to complain there, "You don't know, how difficult and hard it is to pretend, I suffocate ......"
Chu Ming smiled and shook his head, he didn't know what it was like, he didn't have that kind of experience, it wasn't disdain or no, he just didn't want to. His pursuit is simple, that is, to pursue true freedom, not to be constrained, and to do things according to his own will. Of course, he is still too far from his goal.
He didn't say that the life pursued by Zhou Ze was not good, it was just that his personal preferences were different.
No longer thinking about these problems, Chu Ming radiated his soul power, and here Chu Ming didn't care that he would be discovered by others, after all, there were so many people here, and it was normal for people to be swept by their soul power, and Chu Ming also had confidence in himself, believing that as long as it was not the sixth floor, other private rooms would not find Chu Ming's detection.
The people sitting in the private room next door around are also young people, and they should all be disciples of the major sects, among which the third box on the right is made of people from the Lieyang Sect, there are a total of four people, three spirit tricks eight times and one spirit trick nine times, everyone is full of momentum, wearing a uniform inner door uniform, lest others not know their identities.
After a while, he found that there was no valuable news, so he withdrew his soul power. Suddenly, Chu Ming felt that there were several extremely powerful soul forces radiating from the sixth floor, Chu Ming just wanted to release his soul power to fight back, but there was a more powerful soul power sweeping over, invisibly, Chu Ming sensed that one of the soul forces surrounded the space where he was, as if it was used for protection. Protect the box where Chu Ming is located from other soul powers.
Behind the stone auction table, an old man in Tsing Yi walked up.
He clapped his hands, and the crystals above the entire auction hall suddenly lit up, and the soft light illuminated every corner.
