Chapter 81: The Treasure Tournament

Fate has never just described the love between men and women, friendship, or more than love, but also hatred and hatred. Some people say that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, but there is some hatred, but there is not so much lying salary to taste the courage, and he only seizes the day. Some people trek through mountains and rivers to find their enemies, while others always inadvertently pass by their enemies or even look at each other.

Perhaps it can be explained that some people and some people, from the moment they come into this world, are destined to become long-cherished enemies and are inherently opposed.

Taking advantage of the unobstructed moonlight of the desert, he unintentionally chased the black shadow out of the inn, and chased it out for a long distance, but suddenly there was no direction, and he couldn't find any trace of the black shadow, so he couldn't help but shake his head, concerned about the safety of Murong Xue in the inn, and was about to turn back.

But as soon as he turned around, he immediately stopped where he was, and was stunned for a moment, because behind him, a dark shadow appeared, blocking the middle of his route back to the inn.

And the black shadow was also looking at Wuxin at this time, motionless. Through the moonlight, I gradually saw the appearance of the black shadow, the black shadow was not dressed in black, but in a blue robe, gently shaking in the evening breeze, this is an old man with white hair, with a serious and cold face, the first time I saw him, I didn't recognize him.

"Senior Dugu?" asked unintentionally in confusion, with a slight surprise on his face. This black shadow that suddenly appeared was the Tianshan Lone Eagle Dugu Lanqing, who had intersected with Wuxin in Huashan, but I didn't expect to meet here again today. Wuxin only then understood why he felt that the body of the person who came was a little familiar just now.

"Why are you here?" Dugu Lanqing nodded slightly, and asked in a deep voice, as if she didn't want to catch up with Wuxin.

Wuxin didn't feel anything wrong, because he knew that Dugu Lanqing had always been like this, and he had a weird personality. After hesitating for a moment, he said lightly: "Accompany a friend to pick up something." ”

"Treasure Competition?" Dugu Lanqing continued to ask.

"That's right. He replied without thinking that there was really no need to hide it.

However, Dugu Lanqing showed a trace of disappointment when she heard the unintentional answer, and paused and said, "If that thing is not particularly important, I advise you to leave here early with your friends." Then he turned and left.

Wuxin was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Dugu Lanqing meant, and couldn't help asking: "What does the predecessor mean by this?" He faintly felt that there was something in Dugu Lanqing's words, as if he was hinting at something.

Dugu Lanqing, who had walked two steps, stopped, paused, turned around and said in a deep voice: "No one will leave with treasures at this treasure competition conference, and it is very likely that they will not even be able to go back. As he spoke, his face began to become solemn.

Wuxin still didn't understand, but he felt that something was wrong in his heart, so he spoke again: "Please make it clear to your seniors." ”

Dugu Lanqing thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Someone is hiding among these treasure hunters, planning to rob this batch of goods, and even rob these people. ”

"What person?" Wuxin listened to Dugu Lanqing's words, was taken aback, and couldn't help but ask.

"Red Feather!" Dugu Lanqing said in a deep voice, her face becoming even more solemn.

Hearing the word "red feather", his eyes widened unintentionally, and he looked a little surprised. He didn't expect to meet the people of Red Feather thousands of miles away, and it seemed that he had to wade through this troubled water. It's not that the enemies don't get together, it seems that the enmity between him and Red Feather is only getting deeper and deeper.

Wuxin thought for a while, and said lightly: "Since it's a red feather, then I can't go." "He's decided to stay, he wants to see what Red Feather wants to do.

Listening to the meaning of Dugu Lanqing's words, Hong Yu not only wanted to rob the treasures, but also wanted to rob the people in the inn who were competing for treasures, and it was understandable to rob the treasures, but what was the purpose of robbing those people?

You must know that these people who come to compete for treasure are all famous figures in the rivers and lakes, if they are surrendered, it must be a force that cannot be underestimated by Red Feather, if they fail to surrender, Red Feather is likely to kill all these people, then these rivers and lakes are weakened again, and no one will dare to go against Red Feather in the future, and I have no intention of deeply understanding these truths.

"Good. Dugu Lanqing nodded, turned around and disappeared into the night. Wuxin's arrival was discovered by him, and he originally thought that Wuxin was also tracking Red Feather to get here, so he took advantage of the night to lure Wuxin out.

He had seen the strength that Wuxin showed on Mount Huashan, and he also knew the hatred between Wuxin and Red Feather, and originally wanted to form an alliance with Wuxin, but he didn't expect Wuxin not to know, but now Wuxin has indicated that he will stay to deal with Red Feather. Like Wuxin, he seems to live to fight against Red Feather.

Wuxin quickly rushed back to the inn after Dugu Lanqing left, but fortunately, Murong Xue was fine, and she had already woken up, so Wuxin breathed a sigh of relief. Listening to Dugu Lanqing say that the red feather is hidden in the inn, if the other party recognizes him and attacks Murong Xue while he is leaving, it will be troublesome.

Murong Xue was sitting on the edge of the bed waiting anxiously at this time, with an anxious look on her face. When she woke up, she found that Wuxin was not in the house, and when she went out to take a look, she found that there was no one in the corridor and hall, and she couldn't help but be a little anxious, thinking that Wuxin had left her alone.

At this time, seeing Wuxin coming back, he hurriedly asked, "Where have you been?" There was a hint of joy on his face.

"I went out and took a breath. Wuxin found a reason and said lightly. He didn't tell Murong Xue the truth, and he didn't plan to say it now, although Murong Xue has also been in the rivers and lakes, but he has not experienced enough, he has never seen what the real bloody wind is like, if he says it now, it is inevitable that there will be some uncalm actions, and it is likely to be discovered by the red feather hidden in the dark.

Murong Xue nodded, didn't notice anything, and continued to ask, "Then do you want to go to bed and rest for a while?" I've already woken up. ”

Wuxin shook his head in refusal. For him, he can rest no matter what, with or without a bed. Over the years, he had slept comfortably in his bed. What's more, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at now, he must always be vigilant, and the ghost knows if the people of Red Feather will secretly poison him if they find out.

There was nothing to say all night, and soon, the sky was bright, and the corridors and halls gradually heard human voices, everyone greeted each other, and said some polite words that I didn't know how true or false.

The owner of the inn began to get busy again, grinning and greeting the God of Wealth one by one, as if there was no trouble with money, which was much more comfortable than most people's lives.

After a short pleasantry, everyone started to have breakfast, and then waited for the arrival of the bet seller. Wuxin and Murong Xue also came to the hall, found a table in the corner, ordered a few side dishes, and ate slowly.

Unintentionally, intentionally or unintentionally, he paid attention to the people present, but he didn't find any clues. On the contrary, the appearance of him and Murong Xue attracted some people's constant attention and discussion.

The sun was gradually rising, and it was almost noon, and in everyone's anticipation, the bettor finally appeared. More than a dozen wagons stopped at the door of the inn, and the treasures on the carriages were gradually moved by their respective sellers to the huge platform that had been temporarily erected in the center of the inn.

People surrounded these priceless treasures, and their mouths were about to drool, excitedly looking for the treasures they were bound to get in their hearts.

Wuxin sat in the corner, carefully looking at the people around the platform, looking for suspicious people, but there was nothing but greedy faces.

Suddenly, I noticed a few strange people in the crowd, these people did not stand together, but scattered in the crowd, but they had a common but different phenomenon, that is, although they were mixed in the center of the excited crowd, their faces did not appear like the others were greedy and excited, on the contrary, they looked calm, indifferent to what was happening in front of them.

After a short break, the tournament finally began. The treasures on the platform are all kinds and varied, including the elixir of longevity, the treasure knife that sharpens iron like clay, and the antique utensils that have been handed down for hundreds of years, all kinds, among which there is a golden armor that is extremely dazzling.

It is said that this is what an invincible general in ancient times worn, all of which were made of gold wire, soft and close to the body, and after wearing it, he would be invulnerable and invincible.

The purpose of Murong Xue's trip was this priceless treasure, but I am afraid that the people who took a fancy to it were not only Murong Tang's family, and at this time, several groups of people's eyes stayed on it.

Murong Xue had only heard her father talk about it before, but she hadn't seen it, and after seeing it with her own eyes at this time, she loved it even more, and she couldn't wait to take it over and wear it on her body now. If it weren't for the unintentional sitting next to him, it is estimated that he would have been unable to hold back and rush up to rob him.

With the passage of time, the treasures on the stage were auctioned off one by one, and each was bought by the people who fancied them, although there were some who came out to bid, but the scene was quite orderly. Seeing that it was about to be the turn of the golden silk armor, everyone in the audience began to be eager to try, as if everyone was bound to win.

"Next, is the finale of this treasure competition, that is, this iron as clay knife and this invulnerable gold wire armor, I hope everyone will enthusiastically increase the price, to see who these two treasures will end up with. The host of the treasure competition conference stood in the center of the stage and shouted, also looking extremely excited. I guess I was excited to see thousands of taels of silver in white flowers.

"The first bid is this iron like clay treasure knife, and the friends who fancy it can bid, and the starting price is 10,000 taels of silver. The host picked up the sword and shouted at the crowd that was suddenly a little crowded.

"Hey, I said, can this iron-like treasure knife pierce the invulnerable golden wire armor to the heart?" said a big man who pretended to look at the two treasures on the stage deeply, and then put on a contemplative look.

His words caused a burst of laughter from everyone present, this is indeed a question worth pondering, if you try it as he said, then one of these two treasures will definitely not be worthy of the name.

The host chuckled lightly, was not stumped, and said unhurriedly: "This friend's question is good, but if you really want to know, then be generous, buy both treasures, and go home and try it yourself." ”

His words amused everyone present once more, and the big man who asked the question laughed loudest, and began to roll up his arms and sleeves, as if he really intended to take all these two treasures.

"I'll give 15,000 taels!"

"Two thousand taels!"

The fierce bidding finally began, this time more fierce than all the previous treasures, as if the money was no longer money, but a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron, with each shout, it was a sign that more money would flow into the seller's pocket.

But Wuxin didn't have the heart to put it on this, and he didn't even look at the treasure knife that was said to be sharpened like clay, he was a master of making knives, and it stands to reason that he should love knives, especially treasure knives, but now he didn't even look at it, as if he didn't put it in his eyes, and still stared intently at the strange people he found just now, without saying a word.

The people who were completely immersed in the lively atmosphere of the treasure competition did not notice that the grooms who had driven the carriage and brought the treasures in at the beginning had all quietly entered the inn at this time, and stood at the outermost part of the crowd at a certain distance.

The only thing that noticed this was Wuxin, who had been secretly observing, and Wuxin at this moment had already frowned deeply.

He finally completely believed Dugu Lanqing's words, this time the treasure competition conference was by no means as simple as imagined......
