Four days later, Wang Liang had arrived in Fancheng, and after rescuing Gongsun Chi and being promised a promise, Wang Liang had only one purpose, which was to ask Gongsun Chi to help him learn martial arts to avenge his mother.

Looking at the huge city gate, Wang Liang, who had never been out of the village since he was a child, felt the prosperity of the city for the first time, but there were almost no pedestrians at the city gate, only a few scattered people, and they could only enter the city after being interrogated by the guards.

The guards at the gate were checking the posts one by one, and when it was Wang Liang's turn, he asked without raising his head: "Who is your surname, and what is the purpose of coming to Fancheng?" ”

Wang Liangda replied cautiously: "The little surname is Wang Mingliang, who has just turned fifteen this year, and this trip is to join his relatives in Fancheng."

"Huh? Do you have any proof of correspondence with your clan relatives in the city? If not, you're lying to me, be careful that I'll put you in jail.

"Adults are angry, adults are angry, the little ones are indeed here to join the clan, because my mother has just died, and before leaving, I told me to come to Fancheng to join the clan, so there is a way out, and the little ones really have no way to go so they have to come to Fancheng to join the clan, and please be accommodating." As he spoke, he shook the guard's hand and passed the silver down his sleeve to the guard's hand.

The guard shook his hand, showed a satisfied smile, then nodded, and said: "Seeing that you are still young, since you have special circumstances, it is not impossible to be accommodating, but you must abide by the rules of the city, otherwise no one will be able to save you." ”

Wang Liang breathed a sigh of relief, walked quickly into the city, and as soon as he entered the city, a boy greeted him: "I don't know that Gongzi is the first time to come to Fancheng, he grew up in Fancheng since he was a child, and he knows everything about this place, and he only needs a little copper plate to lead Gongzi to familiarize himself with Fancheng." ”

Wang Liang looked at everyone who entered Fancheng, and there would be a person who asked if he needed to guide the way, but everyone else was a young man, only he was a child, maybe the clothes on his body were too torn, and ordinary people looked down on him.

He threw a few copper plates to the boy and said, "Take me to change my outfit first, and by the way, tell me who are the powerful people in Fancheng?" ”

Xiao Tong took the copper plate and was elated, immediately patted his chest and promised that he would definitely tell the prince clearly: "If you want to say that the magnates of Fancheng, first of all, it is the largest auction house in the city, the Jade Shop, don't think that this Jade Bank only has financial resources, in fact, even the city lord has to respect him for three points, no one did anything in the auction of the Jade Shop, and the corpse of the second day who dared to make trouble could not be found, it is said that there is the support of the royal family behind it, and then there is the City Lord's Mansion and the Dragon Gate Dart Bureau opened by the City Lord, which is said to be a dart game, In fact, he also does the work of the martial arts hall, and every year he receives some young and middle-aged people to enter the door to practice martial arts, some of which are divided into the guards in the city, and some are divided into the dart bureau, which is the largest force in the city. Below are the four great families of Li, Zhao, Sun, Wang and some bureaucrats.

Saying that he had arrived at the clothing store, Wang Liang changed into a scholar's outfit and continued to ask, "What has happened recently?" Indeed, it is said that the day after tomorrow, the Jade Line will start a particularly huge auction, and almost all the people with heads and faces in Fancheng will go. ”

Approaching the evening, I arrived at an inn, and after sending away the child, I sat on the bed and thought: I don't know where Gongsun Chi is, but the biggest possibility is that he is in the jade line, and he will go to the jade line tomorrow, and if he is not there, he will go to the city lord's mansion to try his luck.

In the blink of an eye, the night passed.

Wang Liang walked to the door of the jade shop according to the route of the boy yesterday, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw that there were some display cabinets scattered in the hall on the first floor like a chessboard, among which there were pearls and jadeite treasures in the world.

Wang Liang was stunned for a while, and he didn't react until the guy came to ask: "I don't know what the guest officer needs?" Wang Liang turned his head to look around, and when he saw that there was no one around, he said, "Gongsun Chi can be here?" ”

The guy didn't know what Wang Liang was talking about, but he thought that Wang Liang was making trouble, and said loudly: "Our Jade Line is not looking for people, who are you, dare to make trouble here, don't get out of here." ”

When Wang Liang saw this reaction, he didn't know what to do, so he took out the token: "Do you recognize this thing?" ”

The guy looked at the token for some reason, and he didn't know what to do for a while, if he came to make trouble, he brought a fake token that he didn't know where it came from and put it himself, and the manager would definitely fire me, but if it was really a token issued by a big man, he didn't let him in, but he was afraid that the end would be worse

Just when the guy was in a dilemma, the manager of the Jade Bank was attracted by the shouts of the guy, and before he could get closer, he saw Wang Liang show the token given by Gongsun Liang, and hurriedly ran over and reached out to take the token.

After watching it carefully for a while, he returned it to Wang Liang and said, "It turned out to be Wang Gongzi, my son-in-law has been waiting for a long time, please come with me." ”

As he spoke, he led Wang Liang up the stairs until the fourth floor, and pointed to the depths of the room: "Go all the way to the fifth room, and the small ones won't go in." ”。

When Wang Liang arrived in the fifth room, he just wanted to knock on the door, but the door opened by himself, and the person in front of him was Gongsun Chi: "Who is here in my voice, it turned out to be Brother Wang, you can count it as coming, there was indeed an urgent matter that day, and I neglected Brother Wang, I have been thinking about how to thank Brother Wang for the past few days, come, please come in." ”

Waiting for Gongsun Chi to sit down, Wang Liang couldn't wait to speak: "I can't hide it, I was born in Qingshi Village, ten days ago a group of horse thieves suddenly attacked Qingshi Village, hundreds of people up and down the village, except for me, there is no life, such a sea of blood and hatred, I swear to revenge, only hate revenge and have no way." Now that I have the opportunity to do so, I really can't bear to miss it, so I just ask His Highness to teach me martial arts, and I have nothing else to wish. As he spoke, he knelt down.

Gongsun Chi hurriedly stopped: "The grace of saving your life, there is nothing to repay, it's just a trivial matter, why worry about it, please get up quickly, please get up quickly." The practice of martial arts must be discussed in the long run, not in a hurry, but today you came just in time, I just saw that the jade line will be auctioned tomorrow with martial arts cheats for sale, you can take whatever you want, and after tomorrow, you will follow me into Beijing, the masters in the palace are like clouds, why worry about martial arts, today you and I don't think about these things, I will definitely arrange it for you, you and I will eat a good meal of wine and good food with peace of mind, wouldn't it be happy.

Wang Liang had no choice but to agree with Gongsun Chi's words: "Everything is subject to the arrangement of Brother Gongsun." ”

Early the next morning, as soon as the auction began, Gongsun Chi took Wang Liang to a private room on the second floor of the auction and said, "These are all the items for this auction, if you need anything, just tell me." ”

Not long after, a young man walked up to Taidao: "I am Li Si, the lord of Fancheng, thank you for coming to participate in the auction, this auction is presided over by me, the rules are in accordance with the past, the store shouts out a basic price, and then we use silver to gradually increase the price, and the last one with the highest price wins." ”

Then he clapped his hands, and a charming girl walked in with a plate, and there was a fist-sized night pearl on the plate, "This thing is the best night pearl salvaged from the Golden Scale Lake, and the starting price is 1,000 taels of silver." ”

Wang Liangliang, who was sitting on the second floor, absentmindedly followed the list of items given by Gongsun Chi, almost all of them were some pearls and other things, and occasionally some land deeds and other things.

However, there are two items that Wang Liang is interested in, one is the finale auction item of this time, which is a sword made of meteorite from outside the sky, the sword body is long, the hilt is short, the sword weight is small, the iron is like mud, and the hair is blown off, its name is Zhulong, of course, the dragon only refers to some dragons, but listening to its name is enough to feel the domineering of this sword.

The other is a fragment of the Heart Sutra, which is a remnant of the Heart Sutra handed down by a down-and-out family, and no one in that family can crack the mystery and successfully cultivate, so even if it has been handed down to this day, it is also sold because the clan's funds are stretched. Although Wang Liang didn't know what the Heart Sutra was, since the fact was related to martial arts, in line with the mentality that he would rather make a mistake than let go, Wang Liang decided to ask Gongsun Chi to help take it, anyway, it wasn't his father's money that was spent. Thinking to myself, the auction is already halfway through.

"The next one is a heart method, called "Burning Flame Sutra", which is just purchased by our bank from a down-and-out family, this is the main heart sutra of his family in its heyday, and then the family road fell into this purchase, and after the identification of the bank, this is indeed a good heart sutra, as for the shortcomings only difficult to cultivate one, but if it is cultivated, there will be a great improvement, the starting price is 20,000 taels of silver, and each increase shall not be less than 1,000 taels."

As soon as the city lord's words fell, the people under the auction stage began to compete for quotations, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that this kind of good thing could only end up in the hands of the private room on the second floor.

"Brother Gongsun, I want revenge, I still need such treasures, please Brother Gongsun help me, I will definitely repay today's kindness in the future." Wang Liang hugged Gongsun Chi and asked Gongsun Chi for help.

Gongsun Chi hurriedly waved his hand: "Eh, why should you and I see each other, since I promised you, I will definitely keep my promise." Then he raised his hand and said, "Fifty thousand taels of silver." ”

The sudden price increase of 10,000 taels made the entire auction hall quiet for a few seconds. At this time, a voice came from another second-floor box: "Fifty-five thousand taels of silver." Then he continued in a deep voice: "I don't know who Brother Tai is, he is so generous, and his voice is so unfamiliar, it is probably not from Fancheng, the contemptible person is Sun Qian, the head of the Sun family in Fancheng, so he should make a friend, and I hope that Brother Tai will give face."

After hearing this, the people below gradually began to discuss, but where would Gongsun Chi give face to a small Sun family, he didn't mean to return to Sun Qian at all, but continued to shout: "Seventy thousand silver." ”

After hearing this, the people on the first floor talked even more: "This is the head of the Sun family, the head of the four major families, and there is a good show to watch now." ”

That Sun Qian saw that Gongsun was late and didn't give himself face, and said ruthlessly: "Do you want to go out of Fancheng today?" ”

Just wanted to continue to threaten Gongsun Chi to give up the auction, but heard the city lord suddenly warn Sun Qian: "When I don't exist? If the Sun family dares to be rude and oppress people with power, they will be expelled from this auction. ”

What, the city lord actually helped an outsider, could it be that this person's origin is unfathomable? The head of the Sun family suddenly had such a thought in his heart, and hurriedly laughed and said: "How dare you save your face, make a joke, make a joke." ”

In the end, the "Burning Flame Sutra" was bought by Gongsun Chi for 80,000 taels of silver. And the last finale sword is called Zhulong, the starting price is 50,000 taels of silver, and the price was directly increased to 100,000 taels of silver by Gongsun Chi.

After the auction, Wang Liang didn't know how to thank Gongsun Chi, so he could only repeat "Thank you Brother Gongsun for your help, I will definitely repay today's kindness in the future"

"Brother Wang doesn't have to be polite, my life is still worth this bit of silver, we will leave for Beijing tomorrow, Brother Wang can practice martial arts as soon as possible, and take revenge as soon as possible." Gongsun replied lately
