Chapter 5 A golden branch without roots is better than a dead wood

Sybil looked at the dagger in his hand, the gilt handle, and the blue blade, just by looking at it, he knew that it was a good knife for sharpening iron like clay.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency's name. ”

Sybil asked with a calm face.

Chen Wanben still looked solemn, and after hearing the other party ask his name, he said extremely arrogantly.

"The first family of martial arts, Ji Zijian, the sect master of the Ji family. ”

Sybil was stunned for a while after hearing this, and he couldn't imagine that the current Ji clan sect leader, Ji Zijian, was actually a fat man with a big belly. But he soon knew that he was wrong, because Chen Million had an obvious pant of breath when he spoke.

"The sister-in-law of the aunt's husband...... The shopkeeper of Big Fish Money Village, Chen Million is also!"

Xibo was drinking tea, and after listening to Chen Million's spittle and counting, the difference between relatives and relatives of 108,000 miles, he instantly squirted out the tea in his mouth, and couldn't help laughing.

What Chen Million didn't expect was that in Feiyun Town, a town full of Ji relatives, there were still outsiders who dared to laugh at him.

Xibo couldn't stop laughing, and Chen Million's face changed from red to black.

Finally, the dagger moved. Qing Feng braved the chill and stabbed straight into the back of Xibo's heart.

Sybil also moved, the last to strike. The moment Chen Million stabbed out the dagger, his wrist holding the dagger was tightly held in Sybil's hand.

Sybil gripped his wrist and pressed slightly, only to hear the sound of a broken bone, and the dagger had fallen to the ground.

"Ahh

Chen Million covered his broken right hand, fell to the ground in pain, and was covered with cold sweat in an instant. After seeing Sybil's cold eyes again, he was directly frightened and peed his pants.

"Don't come here! I, I, I'm a relative of the Ji family! Don't forget, killing people in Feiyun Valley is making enemies of the Ji family!"

Sybil sneered.

"If the first family of martial arts, they are all black sheep like you. Sybil doesn't mind being an enemy of the Ji clan, and even welcomes it. ”

He spoke very lightly, but his words were heavy. It doesn't seem to take the first family of martial arts in his eyes at all.

For the sake of a woman, a person who is determined to be the enemy of the entire martial arts, how can he care about one more enemy?

Chen Million looked at Sybil in surprise and said with some disbelief.

"You... You're Childe Bill?"

Sybil laughed, smiling contemptuously.

"No, it's down. ”

After speaking, Sybil raised the tip of his right foot and lightly stepped on the dagger on the ground, as long as he used a little force, the dagger would pierce Chen Million's throat like a gust of wind.

The shopkeeper of the Blade Dump Inn has also come to the lobby at this time. After seeing Chen Million, who was sitting on the ground and peeing his pants, he said to Sybil unhurriedly.

"Guest officer, be forgiving and forgiving. This shop can tolerate the former Sword Immortal killing here, but it may not tolerate you. ”

Sybil sneered.

"As I said, I don't mind being an enemy of the Ji clan. ”

The shopkeeper smiled, not far or close, neither humble nor arrogant.

I just don't think I heard that. However, before the guest officer starts, it is better to think clearly, and don't forget the entrustment of the predecessor of the Sword Immortal. ”

Sybil hesitated, but after all, he still didn't kill the fat man who peed his pants in front of him.

As soon as he exerted a slight force on his toes, the dagger on the ground soared into the air like a bird, slashing across Chen Million's cheeks full of flesh, and piercing straight into the door frame of the inn's mahogany.

Sybil's face was calm, and he didn't even look at Chen Million's picture, which was cut by a dagger. Said directly to the shopkeeper of the Blade Dump Inn.

"Shopkeeper, the time has come. ”

The shopkeeper of the Blade Dump Inn looked helplessly, and Chen Million, who was sitting on a puddle of urine and covering his right cheek. Shook his head and said.

"Shopkeeper Chen, tell me the purpose of your trip. ”

Chen Million got up from the ground tremblingly, while putting the broken right hand in his arms, he covered his right face with his left hand, although he grinned in pain, he still said with a smile on his face.

"Hey, the villain has eyes and doesn't know Tarzan, I really don't know that you are the famous son Bill. No offense is not intended to offend, Childe doesn't remember villains, don't be like me, I'm just a ......"

Chen Million still has a big belly, but he doesn't have the solemnity on his face at the beginning. Only nodded incessantly, smiled flatteringly, and chattered and begged for mercy.

Sybil listened with disgust and told him to talk less nonsense. Chen Million stopped begging for mercy and straightened up to continue.

"The villain came this time to find your son. ”

Sybil snorted coldly.

"What's the matter with me? ”

Chen Million was stunned, looked at Sybil as if he really didn't know anything, and hurriedly said.

The villain didn't dare to forget, you saved 100 million taels of silver and 30 million taels of gold in the bank last night. You've overlived your account!"

Sybil thought of the ledger he had read in the morning, which was left to him by Zhou Yaoshan.

I only heard Chen Million continue.

"Any big customer like you! Our big fish money will give you a gilt dagger made of extraterrestrial meteorites. Last night, the guy from the money bank was a newcomer who didn't understand the rules and couldn't give you the dagger, so the little one came to see you off. ”

I saw Sybil stretch out his palm and say.

"What about the dagger?"

Chen Million covered his right cheek covered with blood and replied with an embarrassed expression.

"It's... The one who was just kicked away by Childe was the dagger. ”

When Siber heard this, he stood up and walked to the door frame of the inn. A volley turned over, the palm of the hand was impartial, grasped the dagger that was three points into the wood, and pulled it out with a light pull.

The Chen Million was covered in a cold sweat, he really didn't expect that a blind person would know where the dagger was inserted, and pull it out from the door frame more than one person high so neatly.

When Xibo took the dagger and handed it to Sybil, Chen Million knew how eyeless he was, and said tremblingly.

"There were a large number of old men, the youngest of whom had seventy mothers, and the youngest of whom had eight-year-old children, and in the middle of whom had a wives with knotted hair. You're just like me ......."

Xibo didn't talk nonsense, turned around and pointed to his buttocks, which had the saliva that Chen Million had just spat.

"Don't worry! The small one will make you a new one immediately, and you will be guaranteed to use the most precious silk ......."

Sieber shook his head.

"We just like this. ”

Chen Million's heart was cold, and he hurriedly said.

"You take it off, and the small one will be washed for you immediately. No, please ask the most expensive raccoon cloth lady to wash it for you, and make sure that you will look new after washing!"

Siber shook his head again, pointing to the saliva on his ass and said.

"Where did you come from, where did you go back? ”

Chen Million was stunned, and then he was happy. It's just a butt lick, and what he's best at is licking. Then he knelt on the ground and stretched out his fat tongue.

Seeing this, Sybil felt a pang of nausea. Raising the dagger in his hand, he said, pressed it against his throat.

"There's nothing else you can go. ”

Chen Million was very happy after hearing this, and knocked his head on the ground six or seven times in a row. Then he looked at Sieber's ass with some pity, and quickly stood up and escaped from the inn.

Siber laughed and sat back on the stool.

Sybil glanced at the meteorite dagger in his hand, and was about to turn around to find Siriel and give it to her. I saw that Chen was bleeding all over his face, and he ran back out of breath.

"Hey, look at the villain's brain, he has forgotten the most important thing. Today is the annual auction of the capital bank, and yesterday you only took away the portrait of the things that will be sold at the auction meeting. There are no posts to take the auction, and there are no posts to enter the auction. ”

As he spoke, Chen Million escaped from his chest and threw it to Sybil at the door of the inn.

It was a gilded red paper post, with two words written in black letters - big fish.

When the moon rises, the stars come out.

Big Fish Money Village is located in the center of Feiyun Town. The money village is very large, so big that it occupies one-fifth of the land of Feiyun Town. There is a lot of money in the treasury of the bank, so much that it can buy half of the country.

Piff is innocent, there is so much money in the vault of Big Fish Villa, but it has never been robbed by anyone. Even today, when the imperial treasury is empty and unable to pay the salaries of the frontier soldiers, no one has touched this bank.

Because in addition to the protection of the Ji clan, there is another important reason.

The reason for this is simple. For whether it is a robber or a corrupt official, their money is here.

Once people have a common interest, they will consciously safeguard this interest.

With this layer of interests, no matter what Big Fish Money Bank does, no matter how lawless it is, there will be someone to carry it for them.

Among the many lawless things that Big Fish Money Village has done, there is one of the most worthless things. That's what this big fish money bank is going to hold tonight - the bidding party.

On the day of the bidding meeting, Jiang Yang robbed the stolen goods obtained by the murderers, the treasures sent by the corrupt officials and corrupt officials, the young children stolen by the flower pickers, and the beautiful women who were kidnapped by the flower pickers over the wall. All of them will be sent to the main store of Big Fish Money Village in Feiyun Town. The reserve price is then indicated so that people can bid for it.

Sybil took the gilded red paper and walked into the gate of the Big Fish Money House.

He has only one person, because there is only one invitation, and one can only enter one person. He was clothed in a fox fur, and carried only a red wine gourd filled with wine, without any blades, including the gilded dagger forged from meteorites.

Then, led by the waiter, he walked into a large stone lawn in the backyard of the Big Fish Money Village. In the center of the stone deck is a protruding stone platform on which more than a dozen braziers are lit for lighting. And under the stone platform, there are more than a dozen tents made of black gauze.

Sybil was brought into one of the black gauze tents, and there were three things in the tent. A futon for sitting on the floor, a long-handled bell, and an unlit candlestick.

As soon as Sybil sat down on the futon, a middle-aged fat man with a big belly and bandages on his right hand and right cheek also picked up the black gauze tent and walked in. It was the Chen Million who was broken off his right hand and cut the right side of his face.

I saw that as soon as Chen Million entered the black gauze tent, he said flatteringly.

"Childe, it's your first time here, and you don't know much about the rules here. These guys in the money bank are not as small as I have eyesight. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me! Look, I'm standing here?"

Sybil bowed slightly, and Chen Million hurriedly responded with a smile.

"Okay!"

After a while, more than a dozen gorgeously dressed figures came one after another on the stone floor, and under the leadership of the waiter of the big fish money village, they walked into the remaining black gauze tent.

Chen Million saw Sybil looking at the dozen or so figures sitting in the black gauze tent like him, and seemed a little curious. Immediately opened her mouth to explain to him.

"Childe, those are also masters with the same amount of money as you, and some of them are even relatives of the emperor. But don't worry, the little one has seen it for you, and in this year's auction, you will have the most money. As long as it's something you want, it's yours!"

After hearing this, Sybil looked at the dozen or so black gauze tents placed on the stone lawn, and found that these dozen or so black gauze tents were all black, and none of them were lit by candlelight.

"Why don't you hold the lamp?"

Chen Million was stunned and hurriedly said.

"Oh! This lamp can't be lit casually! The tent is pronounced the same as the ledger, and the lamp in the tent is like lighting the ledger! As long as you have a little light, it is to show others that you are going to spend all your money and buy what is being sold on the stage!"

Sybil picked up the wine gourd, took a sip of wine, and said slowly.

"That's what you said, as long as it's something I must, it must be mine?"

Chen Million said yes again and again, and said with a slurp.

"But this auction has been going on for thirty years, and no one has ever lit the lamp in the tent. Speaking of which, who can sit in this black gauze tent doesn't have some rare things. No matter how shocking the things at the auction are, no one will spend all their money to buy them, they will only do what they want. Where do you need to light the lamp? Childe saw this bell? As long as it's something you like, just shake it twice!"

Just as Chen Million spoke, thousands of people came to the stone flat in clusters. These people have different images, but they have one thing in common, that is, they are all relatives of the Ji family in Feiyun Town.

They don't have invitations in hand, but they can come to the auction unimpeded.

Because they have something more convenient than an invitation – a relationship. A family relationship that can't be beaten by the eight poles of the Ji clan.

"Big Fish Money Village Bidding Meeting, Start Now!"

With the stone platform in the center of the stone flat, a loud voice sounded, and a piece of rare treasures was carried up.

Among these rare treasures are jewels stolen from the imperial palace, snow lotuses plucked from the Tianshan Mountains, and various martial arts secrets.

Sybil drank the wine in the gourd, and didn't even look at the treasures on the stage.

Until a urinal appeared on the stone platform, a urinal that glowed green.

Before the waiter on the stage could say the origin of the urinal, the crowd laughed like a tsunami.

I only heard the waiter hold the urinal and say.

"This night pot is made of the night pearl in the belly of the giant clam of the East China Sea. Thirty years ago, it was used by Zhou Yaoshan, who was called a sword immortal by the people of the rivers and lakes. The reserve price is ten taels!"

No one in the dozen or so black gauze tents rang the bell to bid, and only heard someone shouting from the crowd standing outside the stone flat.

"I'll give eleven taels!"

"I'm fifteen taels!"

With the shouts of the crowd one after another, in the end, this luminous urinal, which was used by Zhou Yaoshan, was sold for a high price of fifty taels.

The relative of the Ji family, who had spent fifty taels of silver, had just taken the glowing green urinal from the waiter's hand, and scolded loudly.

"My baby night pot! It's just a loan to the shameless Zhou Yaoshan for one night, and he actually sold it to this bidding party!"

"Zhou Yaoshan, who has borrowed but not returned, really lives up to his reputation. ”

As soon as another Ji relative standing in the crowd finished speaking, there was another burst of laughter in the crowd, which was even worse than the laughter just now.

Sybil took a sip of wine, he had not yet shaken the bell once, and looked at the stone platform with some impatience.

Chen Million on the side saw his expression and hurriedly explained.

"Don't worry, Childe, there are still the last two treasures. For small packing tickets, you'll buy at least one of them!"

As soon as Chen Million finished speaking, Sybil had already seen one of the treasures he said.

But it can't be called a treasure, because it's a man, a woman.

But this woman can be called a treasure, because she is very beautiful, beautiful as a fairy.

Those relatives of the Ji family on the periphery of Shiping were still laughing loudly at the person who bought the urinal, but when they saw the woman on the stage, they suddenly quieted down, and they were silent one by one.

This time, the waiter on the stone platform did not talk eloquently, but spoke directly.

"Reserve price, ten taels!"

Sybil was momentarily stunned when he heard the waiter's offer.

Only then did he understand why there was a urinal used by Zhou Yaoshan at the auction meeting with many rare treasures.

It's humiliating!

Ji Zijian, the current sect leader of the Ji family, in order to humiliate his brother Ji Ziyi, who died of illness, actually put the eldest lady of the Ji family up for auction, and the urinal at the same price!

This is not even the face of the Ji clan. Sybil couldn't help but wonder, what kind of person could do such a beastly thing?

Zeng Gui was the Ji Caiyin of the eldest lady of the Ji family. The man in the painting holding cherry blossoms and smiling quietly.

The fairy who looks as beautiful as a flower, like a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world.

At this moment, he is standing on the stone platform of the auction meeting.

Her slender wrists, which should have been as white as jade, had been strangled by heavy iron chains. The waist-length skirt with red edges on a white background has long been tattered, and it is only a little bit of a tear away from the clothes.

Through the black gauze tent, Sybil looked at Ji Caiyin on the stone platform who was illuminated by the fire. She and the portrait he had seen were already two people.

But it's not the appearance change mentioned above, if it's just a change in clothing, it won't affect her alluring appearance in any way.

What matters is her tear-stained face, the eyes that should be tender like water. At this moment, it has become a pair of organs that can only be called eyes.

There was no light in her eyes, like a puppet with a string.

When the waiter on the stage saw that there was no one to bid, he spoke again about the reserve price.

There was no movement in more than a dozen black gauze tents under the stage, and there was no movement in the group of Ji relatives standing far away.

Because everyone knows that this is a hot potato. It is very cost-effective to buy a beauty for ten taels of silver, but if you buy the eldest lady of the Ji family for ten taels of silver, it will turn into a murderous disaster.

The waiter waited for a long time, and when he saw that no one was bidding, he picked up the chain that locked Ji Caiyin and wanted to take her down and re-imprison her.

"Wait, I want it. ”

The voice of the person who spoke was not loud, but it made everyone on the stone flat thunderous.
