Chapter 43: First Encounter with an Immortal Cultivator
After Shi Jian and the elves walked into the Baihua Building, they found that the Baihua Building was heavily defended, and all they saw were groups of soldiers with weapons patrolling back and forth. Shi Jian was a little surprised, how could it be just an auction, and he actually sent army soldiers to participate in the patrol, wouldn't the defense inside be more strict than the outside.
Shi Jian looked at it, and jumped onto the Baihua Building at the moment when the two teams of soldiers crossed and no one could see it. Gently on the tiles, I slowly came to a window, listened carefully, pried open the window, and got in.
Shi Jian looked at the decoration in Baihualou, and couldn't help but take a breath, what a luxurious decoration, how much does it cost. Shi Jian looked at it, climbed onto the beam, and slowly evaded the patrol on the beam.
Shi Jian cautiously walked away to avoid one after another bright and dark whistles, and thought strangely: "The rouge powder smell that I heard in front of me is obviously in this building, and I can smell it now, but why don't I see anyone? Could it be that the auction will be cleared tomorrow? Yes, the auction will start tomorrow, and they will clear the auction tonight, where do they exist in the treasures of the auction?"
Suddenly, the elf said to Shi Jian: "Master, wait, I seem to feel the breath of an immortal cultivator." ”
"What?" Shi Jian couldn't help but open his mouth wide and asked the elf in a low voice.
"Yes, master, although he is an immortal cultivator, this immortal cultivator is not very strong, it is estimated that he was selected by an immortal cultivator in the earth realm, but it is indeed a bottom-tier existence, so come to the human realm to be worshiped by others. But master, you have to be careful, those who can be selected through the realm are estimated to be better than you, so let's quit and see the situation tomorrow. The elf said to Shi Jian.
"Damn, forget it, I can only go back first and see tomorrow. Shi Jian was troubled for a while, the first time he was a thief, he returned empty-handed, if only there was the invisibility of the Shura of the underworld.
Shi Jian crept to the window where he had just entered, looked left and right, and cautiously turned over and walked out. Just as Shi Jian was about to take advantage of the two teams of patrolling soldiers to cross and walk to the opposite roof.
There was a "snap" sound, and Shi Jian said in his heart: "It's not good, it's going to suffer!" It turned out to be the sound of a tile under Shi Jian's feet suddenly cracking.
"What person, there is a situation!" The two patrolling soldiers turned to look in the direction where the sound came from, and unexpectedly found Shi Jian, and began to shout: "There is a thief, catch the thief!"
Shi Jian looked at the bottom, and sighed helplessly, he still has little experience, and he can't be a thief, and now the soldiers guarding shouted, the immortal cultivator in the back should also come out, it seems that it is a hard battle.
Sure enough, at this time, two figures came out of the Baihua Building, looking at Shi Jian who was on the eaves, one of them was wearing a brocade robe, fat and round, it looked like it should be a businessman, and opened his mouth and laughed: "I didn't expect that someone would come to fight the idea of our auction, boy, are you tired of it, do you think that our auction will be a cat and a dog can also come to steal things?" After the round merchant finished speaking, he said to the soldiers around him: "What else do you see, why don't you hurry up and take down this little thief." ”
The soldiers surrounded him, and some rushed to the window near Shi Jian's side, ready to grab Shi Jian.
Shi Jian had no choice but to jump off the Baihua Tower first, in order to save internal force, Shi Jian has been using a small test knife to blast away the soldiers who are trying to besiege him.
The chubby merchant scolded angrily when he saw that so many soldiers couldn't take Shi Jian. Then he turned his head and said in a low and respectful voice to the Taoist priest in Taoist robes: "Zhao Xianfeng, look, do you need to catch this thief?"
Zhao Xianfeng looked at Shi Jian, turned his head and said to the businessman: "President Wang, this person is probably not an ordinary thief, if the ordinary thief was taken down by these soldiers a long time ago, and this person only hurt people, and did not kill anyone, it seems that the other party also has some scruples, and he has always been a trick, I am afraid that we will see his origin." ”
After Zhao Xianfeng finished speaking, he thought about it, and continued to say to President Wang: "If I don't make a move, he will probably run away, okay, after all, I am worshiped by you, I will make a move, I hope to take him down." ”
President Wang was overjoyed when he saw that Zhao Xianfeng was willing to make a move, and slapped Zhao Xianfeng on the back, only to see him say: "Zhao Xianfeng, you must have made a move, what kind of thief can escape from the palm of Zhao Fengfeng's hand, haha." Turning around, he said to the soldiers around him: "You all get out of the way, Zhao Xianfeng is going to make a move." Don't stand in the way of Zhao Offerings!"
The surrounding soldiers slowly retreated, leaving Shi Jian in the middle. Shi Jian looked at Zhao Xianfeng, who came slowly, and sighed in his heart, he didn't expect to be right.
Zhao Xianfeng walked in and said to Shi Jian: "Why does this friend want to do this kind of thing of roosters and dogs, with the strength of his friend, he should not worry about food and clothing." But since my friend is here, don't go, how about a drink with me. ”
Shi Jian shook his head and did not speak.
Seeing this, Zhao Xianfeng was not annoyed, took out a bag from his arms, and said to Shi Jian: "Since my friend refuses to appreciate his face, then you can go, I see that my friend is not a bad person, and it is estimated that he is also shy for a while, I have a hundred taels here, so I will give it to your friend." After speaking, he threw the bag towards Shi Jian.
Shi Jian caught it with one hand, looked at Zhao Xianfeng in surprise, shook his head, and threw the bag back to Zhao Xianfeng.
That Zhao Xianfeng took the bag, looked at Shi Jian strangely, and said to Shi Jian: "Friend, why is this? Is it too little?"
Shi Jian thought about it, this person is not a bad person, but he has the heart to guard against people, and turned into an old man's voice and said to Zhao Feng: "No need, I'm just bored, I'm not short of money, I just want to see what this Dongdu auction is." Since you don't want to fight, then I'll take my leave. With that, he jumped on the roof and ran into the distance.
The chairman of the king wanted to be stopped, but seeing that Zhao Xianfeng didn't make a move, he still couldn't help but let people chase him, and couldn't help but ask Zhao Xianfeng: "Why didn't you stop Zhao Xianfeng." Zhao Xianfeng looked at President Wang and said word by word: "I may not be able to win against him, and maybe he has a lot of background, and we haven't lost anything, so forget it, President Wang, some people can be offended, some people can't, do you understand? I am being worshiped by the auction, not by you, do you understand?"
Chairman Wang wiped the cold sweat from his head and said, "Understood, understood." Looking at the soldiers around him, he said angrily: "What should you do, what are you still doing here!"
Seeing that the surrounding soldiers had left, President Wang turned his head to look at Zhao Xianfeng, but he didn't see anyone, he was looking at Baihualou, and saw Zhao Xianfeng walking into Baihualou step by step. President Wang became angry for a while, but there was no way, this Zhao was invited by the Chamber of Commerce, and it was not something that the president could afford to offend.
