Chapter 298: Each family has its own difficulties
Taihang City under Taihang Sect is the most magnificent city in the south of Dashang except for the city where the Wang family is located. There are countless cultivators coming and going, and the auction house here can be described as making money every day. Even if you add a piece of the profits earned to the Taihang Sect, you can also get rich, which is enough to see the prosperity of this Sumeru City.
The largest auction house in Sumeru City does not belong to Baibao Zhai, but is controlled by the Taihang Sect. With the Taihang Sect Master stepping into the bamboo basket to draw water, Baibao Zhai is gradually declining, if it weren't for the destiny of heaven to sit in charge, and be able to withstand the pressure slightly, I am afraid that he would have been forced to get out of Sumeru City a long time ago.
The Taihang Sect can't do things, and the disciples in the sect can't be people. In the final analysis, the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked. The Taihang Sect Master was arrogant and domineering, and once almost killed a lower sect Heavenly Mandate, and threatened that the disciples in the sect did not need to scruple to do things. It's a big deal to find your own master, it's really not okay to go out in person every year, in short, you can't lose your "backbone"!
Many people are very dissatisfied with this, what kind of "backbone", high-sounding, arrogant and accustomed, eager to paste the two big words Taihang on their heads. Ordinary people don't dare to conflict with it, and it's better to break their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs than to ruin their families. The people of the entire Sumeru City are actually living in dire straits, but there is no way, they have long been used to it.
Today's city of Sumeru is different from the past, because an extremely important auction has been held in a small building in the center of the city. It is said that there are a lot of treasures in this auction, and they are all ordinary goods. It is full of gimmicks, so it attracts many practitioners and wealthy businessmen from well-to-do families.
If you can enter the small building, you can either carry an invitation card, or release your qi, and you can enter above the sky. Ordinary Jianghu Grandmasters are enough to be powerful in their own realm on weekdays, but when they are placed here, they can only sit on the tea table, and they don't even dare to call for a pot of tea, so they can only drink the wine they carry with them. Just because each pot of tea was sold for an exaggerated price of five Luoxia coins, I wanted to taste the taste, but I was really shy in my pocket, so I had to give up.
Like them, in fact, they also know that coming to this level of auction is to join in the fun, and wanting to pay for the treasure is tantamount to a fool's dream.
Even if it is a lucky immortal, the seat is only slightly forward. If you want to sit at the front, you have to be those rich businessmen with a lot of money. They are the fat sheep in the eyes of the auction, and it is a shame not to slaughter them.
As for the private room surrounding the small building, it was prepared for the Heavenly Mandate cultivators. If you don't make a move, you have to take down your favorite baby. After all, their family background is still very thick.
In front of the small building, Zhuge Chen and the spirit boy waited in line, listening to the conversation between the two in front of them. Even though the original human will of the spirit boy was to come in directly, killing him turned the world upside down. But I still have to admit that Zhuge Chen's sentence of knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible in a hundred battles can't be right.
Of course, it still sneered at Zhuge Chen, saying that Baiyi was such a girl's style, and he was not worthy of his sword cultivation identity at all. It wasn't until Zhuge Chen narrowed his eyes that it closed its mouth in amusement. The hero does not suffer the loss in front of him, and the wisps of sword qi that overflows, he thinks that he is not an opponent.
Glancing at Zhuge Chen, who was frowning, as if he was thinking about things, the spirit boy sighed. I'm not afraid that the sword cultivator's killing power is amazing, but I'm afraid that the sword cultivator's brain is surprisingly good. Originally, frontal fighting is the most important thing for cultivators, and they like to use some unexpected means, so any opponent will feel fear from the bottom of their hearts!
"Brother Wang, I heard that at this auction, there is a flying sword in excellent condition! It is said that the duckweed sword fairy will come to fight, if he really gets a weapon for this sword immortal, then the killing power will not skyrocket?" said the slightly younger man exaggeratedly.
The older one shook his head: "How can it be so simple, the opponents of the duckweed sword immortal, can watch his killing power go to the next level? Not to mention that there are many people who can't see the good of others, according to me, it is not a simple matter for him duckweed sword fairy to get that flying sword." Before you get it, everything is nonsense. ”
At this moment, the two people who were talking happily were stopped in front of the small building. One of the armored guards stood tall and said, "The realm of the two of you?"
On the chest of the guard is imprinted a mountain peak, and above the peak, there is a mountain gate. The two Jianghu people immediately knew that this person was a disciple of the Taihang Sect, and he couldn't afford to provoke him, so he could only do what the other party said.
"Two Jianghu Grandmasters!" the guard shouted towards the small building, and then said to the two Jianghu Grandmasters, "When you enter the inside, you must obey the rules. Otherwise, you know the means of my Taixing Sect. It's good to be in the back, don't go forward, understand?"
The two Jianghu Grandmasters nodded hurriedly and walked in quickly.
It was Zhuge Chen's turn to be with the spirit boy, and the guards were still full of disdain. And it's no wonder he's so, because those famous people don't pass by. Hand over the invitation, or release the air machine, and have a special steward lead you into the private room upstairs.
It's a pity that the spirit boy is more arrogant, and with just one finger outstretched, he blocked the guards who wanted to stop them.
The guard tried to pat its fingers away, but unfortunately it lacked strength, and instead spurted out a mouthful of blood. Other guards rushed in at this moment, surrounding Zhuge Chen and the spirit boy.
"Dare to hurt me, you are doomed!" The injured guard kept shouting: "I am the grandson of an elder of the Taihang Sect, and no one dares to do anything to me in this Sumeru City! When you die, I will take your corpse and light a sky lantern, and your soul will not be dispersed, and I will suffer for ten thousand years!"
In just one sentence, his viciousness was reflected. 000 Literature
It's a pity that the spirit boy doesn't want to look at the elder of the guard. After all, it is also a disciple of the Demon Ancestor, if the master and apprentice come together, the Sect Master of the Taihang Sect will have to go out to greet him in person.
Therefore, the spirit boy just attracted a bolt of lightning and pointed it on the guard's chest. In an instant, the flames were everywhere, and if it weren't for the guards wearing a set of extremely high-quality armor, they would have died dead. But with this move, the Qi of the Spirit Boy also spread. Immediately, an elder of the Taihang Sect walked out of the small building, and he glanced at the two strangers standing in front of him and behind him.
He was already at odds with the guard grandfather, but when he saw it, he stepped forward and said softly, "The two young men are our distinguished guests in this auction. Your arrival will make the small building shine, come with me, please have a private room upstairs. ”
Zhuge Chen smiled and said politely: "I'm tired." ”
He just has an indissoluble enmity with the sect master of the Taihang Sect, and he doesn't need to count it on others. The kindness of others, no matter what the intentions are, Zhuge Chen will not speculate with malice. Just like his sword qi, named "Haoran", it means even more so. If Zhuge Chen was not the current sword cultivator, or if the road of the sword immortal was not very smooth, as early as back then, he would have gone to be a scholar. The Confucian sage who is sure to rule heaven and earth is also excellent.
The sword aura is like a bookish style, and the middle is peaceful and thick.
is a Confucian sage's evaluation of Zhuge Chen's sword qi, which is far more positive than negative.
Zhuge Chen and the spirit boy walked into the private room under the leadership of a girl with a writhing waist, and the window was facing the lobby, just in time to see the auction on the central table. Sitting in that chair and shouting, the whole building could hear it.
The girl knew how to be polite, and seeing that the guests in this private room were not interested in her, she consciously withdrew after handing over a detailed list of auction items. The higher the realm, the higher the cultivator, it is very likely that there are many quirks. For girls like them who can only come out at auctions, their biggest wish is that someone can take them away from the purgatory of Taihang Sect where they may die at every turn. If that person is good-looking, he is even more young and promising, no matter how good it is, he is like Zhuge Chen.
The girl who led the way thought that this was a heaven-sent fate, and always inadvertently rushed to Zhuge Chen and smiled. It's a pity that the other party turned a blind eye, so she could only scold a stuffy gourd in her heart.
After the girl left, Zhuge Chen said to the spirit boy: "When the auction is out, the people of the Taihang Sect will definitely come to the door." ”
The spirit boy replied nonchalantly, "Isn't this exactly what you want, am I right?"
Zhuge Chen nodded: "But I still don't want this grievance to involve others, but since I came to die, I have to accept it all." I, Zhuge Chen, am not a good person, and doing a good deed every day is the limit, and I have to keep my eyes open, so I can't help but feed the dog with a conscience. How difficult it is, if it weren't for the two swords at his waist that could still be regarded as being able to calm the scene, he wouldn't have known where to bury his bones. ”
When he said this, he was a little helpless, and his eyes were not as tough as usual. It feels like a different person.
Each family has its own difficulties, and it is in all aspects, but the spirit boy always feels that Zhuge Chen, who is more upright than he can live a whole life, will be so tired. It seems that it is difficult to enter the WTO, and you have to try your best to force your face to laugh.
It tried to comfort it for the first time, but it couldn't speak, and in the end it just scratched its head. Glancing at Zhuge Chen, he didn't know if Bai Yi could know what he meant.
Just turning its head, it felt that its worries were purely unnecessary. I'm afraid that the sky will fall apart in the next moment, and the white-clothed sword cultivator in front of me may not change his face!
Zhuge Chen leaned on the eaves of the window and said to himself: "What duckweed sword fairy? Others want to get their hands on it, and there is no door!"
As he spoke, he took out more than a dozen Dongtian coins from his mustard seeds and counted them one by one. The spirit boy had never seen this meeting, and secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Zhuge Chen smiled and said, "Why, haven't you seen a rich person?"
Several more Cave Heaven Coins appeared out of thin air with a clanging sound and fell into his hands.
The spirit boy said in a hoarse voice: "I've seen it, but I really haven't seen so many." ”
Zhuge Chen rubbed his cheeks and sighed a long sigh: "Oh, this is the trouble of rich people." I won't tell you, you don't understand anyway. ”
