Chapter One Hundred and Forty-Nine: Underground Auction

Lu Zhe limped into the Liuyun Kingdom with the support of the old doctor.

Because Lu Zhe was injured, the two of them found an inn in Liuyun Country to settle down temporarily, the doctor asked Lu Zhe to sit on the stool, and then took out a few delicate jade bottles from his arms, after carefully examining Lu Zhe's injuries, he poured the medicinal liquid in these bottles together, and then stirred evenly and applied it to Lu Zhe's wound, and finally wrapped it around with a white cloth.

The medicine for the elderly is really magical, Lu Zhe only feels that his wound is much more comfortable after taking the medicine, and it is not so painful.

The doctor washed his hands after taking the medicine, then sat down opposite Lu Zhe and said: Your kid is lucky, he didn't hurt his bones, otherwise you kid would be able to stand it.

Lu Zhe smiled and said: Let's talk about it as a practicing family, things that hurt our muscles and bones are commonplace for us, and they are trivial.

The doctor shook his head with a smile, and then his face was normal, and he said very seriously: You should be clear about the purpose of our visit this time.

Lu Zhe nodded and said, "I understand, it's just that Master's materials for refining the Little Spirit Pattern Pill are very rare, how can we find it?"

The old doctor pondered for a while, and said: Of course I know that the materials for refining the Little Spirit Pattern Pill are not easy to come by, you have been with me and Ye Laosan for so long, let me ask you, where do you say we can get these medicinal materials?

"Of course it's an auction," Lu Zhe thought for a while and replied with a smile.

The doctor nodded with satisfaction and said approvingly: You are right, these medicines are very rare, if you want to find them one by one, you don't know what year and month you have to find them, and only at the auction can you find all these medicinal materials. Then the doctor's face changed slightly, and he continued: I just paid attention to it on the road. There doesn't seem to be any big auction here, which means we have to go to the underground auction to find the herbs.

"Without further ado. Let's hurry up and go to the underground auction" Lu Zhe was anxious, and immediately stood up when he heard this. But because his injuries had not healed, as soon as he stood up, he felt a pain in his ribs and sat down again.

The old doctor smiled gloatingly and said, "What are you anxious about?" Do you know where the underground auction will be here?

Lu Zhe shook his head and said: I don't know.

The doctor got up from his chair and walked out, and said as he walked, "Come with me, let's go down and inquire."

Lu Zhe picked up his clothes from the chair and put them on, and followed the doctor to the downstairs.

When Lu Zhe came downstairs, the old doctor was already standing at the counter, and he pulled over the shopkeeper who was settling accounts. Asked in black language: Shopkeeper, where will the underground auction be here?

The shopkeeper was also a smart man, and when he heard this man speak in black, he knew that the person who came was not good, but fortunately he was inquiring about things, and he replied in black at the moment: go straight ahead and then turn left, until you reach the end, there is a grocery store, called 'Lao Ji Grocery Store', and there is a mirror more than one person high inside. Behind the mirror is the path to the underground venue.

The old doctor nodded with satisfaction, took out a gold coin from his bosom and put it on the counter, and the shopkeeper took the gold coin after some resignation.

The old doctor waved his hand at Lu Zheyi, who was standing on the stairs, and walked out of the inn. Lu Zhe followed closely behind and walked out.

Just as the two of them walked out, the shopkeeper's eyes changed, and he pulled a guy who was working and whispered a few words. The guy nodded, went backstage, changed his clothes and left the inn. Dangling through the crowd, it vanished.

Lu Zhe and the old doctor walked down the street, and Lu Zhe was worried that the materials for refining the Little Spirit Pattern Pill would be taken by others. He walked a little fast, and the old doctor walked unhurriedly, looking at Lu Zhe, who was worried about the medicine being robbed, the old doctor smiled and said: Don't worry, no one grabbed those medicinal materials.

Lu Zhe was puzzled and asked: Why?

The doctor explained with a smile: Because they don't know how to practice. The reason why the Little Spirit Pattern Pill is so valuable is that his medicinal materials are rare, and secondly, because refining this pill must be an alchemist above the fourth tripod. Although medicinal materials are rare, as long as you have money, you will naturally get them, and the most difficult thing is the second point, because it is very difficult to invite an alchemist with more than four tripods, and it is even more difficult than looking for medicinal materials.

After hearing the doctor's explanation, Lu Zhe's hanging heart fell, and his feet were not so hurried, and he walked side by side with the doctor to the venue of the underground auction.

After walking for about two quarters of an hour, Lu Zhe and the doctor came to the grocery store that the shopkeeper said, this grocery store was very ordinary, no different from other grocery stores, but around this grocery store, there were some unnatural-looking people, some of them disguised themselves as beggars, some disguised as other store workers or shopkeepers, and so on.

"Let's go," the doctor started to walk into the grocery store.

Entering the grocery store, there are rows of containers, the containers are full of dazzling goods, and a middle-aged man who looks like a shopkeeper is standing behind the counter and calculating the accounts.

The old doctor walked over and knocked on the counter, and the shopkeeper looked up at the old doctor when he heard the sound, and said with a smile: What does the guest officer want?

A strange smile appeared on the doctor's face, and then he said in black words: I'm here to buy something.

As soon as the shopkeeper heard the black words, he understood what was going on, but the smile on his face remained the same, and he walked out from behind the counter and led the doctor to the mirror that was more than one person high.

The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and buttoned it behind the mirror, and the mirror slowly opened inside with a 'click' sound, and when the mirror was fully opened, a staircase leading to the underground appeared in front of Lu Zhe and the doctor.

"Two inside, please," the shopkeeper said politely.

The old doctor glanced back at Lu Zhe and said, "Let's go." After finishing speaking, he went down first, and Lu Zhe followed the old doctor without much hesitation.

After walking for a while, the master and apprentice came to a door, and the old doctor stepped forward and knocked on the door, and the door opened with a "creak", and a large hall appeared in front of Lu Zhe's eyes.

The elder doctor and Lu Zhe walked into this splendid hall, Lu Zhe looked at this hall and said suspiciously: This is the venue of the auction?

"No, this is the hall of the auction, and the venue of the auction is inside," suddenly a very seductive voice came.

Lu Zhe turned his head to look, only to see a sexy woman in a red cheongsam with a golden mask standing beside the two of them at some point.

Lu Zhe looked the bewitching woman up and down and asked, "Who are you?"

The woman bowed slightly and said, "I'm the receptionist of the two, and the two of you are here to participate in the auction."

Lu Zhe nodded.

"Okay, please pay the entrance fee first, and then we'll give you two numbered plates," the bewitching woman explained.

Lu Zhe nodded and asked, "Where is the entrance fee?"

The sexy woman led Lu Zhe and the doctor to the circular counter in the center of the hall, and the doctor took out three gold coins from his arms and said: Give.

The woman saw the old doctor take out three gold coins, and hurriedly explained: The two of them only need to hand over two gold coins.

The doctor smiled and explained, "I know, this gold coin is a tip for you. As he spoke, he took a gold coin and threw it between the woman's breasts, and the gold coin slid down her cleavage, and the woman blushed and let out a "snort".

The woman behind the counter took two number plates and handed them to the doctor and Lu Zhe, and the woman who received Lu Zhe and the doctor looked at the time and explained: The next auction is about to start, so let's wait here.

The doctor nodded and walked towards the sofa in the corner, followed by Lu Zhe.

The woman took out the gold coin given to her by the doctor from between her breasts after Lu Zhe and the doctor walked away, looked at it, put it in her pocket, twisted her waist and walked towards the doctor and Lu Zhe.

Just after the two of them sat for about a quarter of an hour, another woman dressed in the same bewitching clothes walked up to Lu Zhe and the old doctor, and said respectfully: "Both, the auction is about to start, please let you enter."

The old doctor got up and moved his muscles and bones, and said, "Let's go."

Lu Zhe nodded, and the two walked side by side into the auction venue, behind the golden-painted door...... (To be continued......)
