Chapter 48: The Auction (Part I)
Lan Wanting sipped her tea, and couldn't help choking when she heard Tang Chenglin's words: "Cough, senior brother, let's go, I'll just wait here." Vaguely hearing that Tang Chenglin didn't want to mention this matter, Lan Wanting had no choice but to push him away, but although she didn't want to think about it in her heart, the situation of Tang Chenglin killing people and taking the waist card kept coming to mind, although it was just her imagination.
Tang Chenglin put on his cloak and walked outside the door, and a figure who was also wearing a cloak walked downstairs. "Senior brother!" Lan Wanting stopped him.
Tang Chenglin turned around, and the other cloaked man walked to the door of the compartment. "If you can, introduce me one day, this waist card is quite interesting!" Lan Wanting said with a sudden smile, as if she had forgotten what had just happened.
"Okay!" Tang Chenglin replied with a smile, although the prohibition of the cloak made Lan Wanting unable to see his face clearly, she was inexplicable, inexplicably able to feel it. Tang Chenglin walked slowly upstairs, and another cloaked man walked into the room next to him.
Tang Chenglin walked to the second floor, and a boy who looked like a scholar led him into a room, which looked no different from the room downstairs, not so much a reception room, but more like a study, except for the tables, chairs, and tea sets, the whole house was only left with bookshelves by the wall, which were full of rooms and all kinds of novels by monks.
Tang Chenglin sat down at the table, and opposite him was a middle-aged man, whose cultivation was not high, only in the late stage of contemplation, slightly higher than him. However, he knew that the people of the Cave Heaven Society had a specific method to store all kinds of news, and this middle-aged man didn't know anything, and he still needed to cast a spell to know, similar to using a communication magic weapon to ask. Although the method is a bit stupid, it is indeed very secretive, even if you kill this person, you can't know what you want to know, this is the uniqueness of the Cave Heaven Society.
"Daoist friends must know our rules, don't you mind checking the waist card again, right?" the middle-aged man asked a little kindly.
"Please hurry. Tang Chenglin pretended to be impatient and said, and took out the waist card.
The middle-aged man took the waist card, his fingertips flashed with spiritual power on the waist card, the spiritual power randomly collapsed, and the man smiled and handed back the waist card.
"What news do you want to trade?" the man asked.
Tang Chenglin put away his waist card: "I want to know the news of pure iron, or the same Xuantie." ”
"Understood, Daoist friend wait a moment. The middle-aged man nodded and walked out of the room.
Tang Chenglin waited in the house, and flipped through the books on the bookcase, these books were for customers to pass the time, but he was extremely irritable, the Yin Ge Flying Sword was seriously damaged, and these materials were already extremely scarce, he couldn't help but worry about whether he could refine the flying sword in more than a year.
After about a stick of incense, the middle-aged man came back, took out a jade slip and put it on the table, and said: "These materials are extremely scarce, when Daoyou came, there was an auction house in Xiangzhou City today, and Daoyou will encounter the materials you want." ”
"Thank you. Tang Chenglin said happily.
The middle-aged man handed the jade slip to Tang Chenglin and said, "If the Taoist friend doesn't have to get the treasure, you can go to these trading houses recorded on the jade slip to try your luck, but in the next word, in the future, whether these trading houses have the materials that the Taoist friend wants, but not necessarily, the Taoist friend still don't report too much hope." ”
"Naturally, I know the rules. Tang Chenglin knew that the man was clarifying the credibility of the news, and the news of the auction house was certain, but not necessarily those of the trading house.
The price code is set in advance, although the materials Tang Chenglin wants are scarce, but no one comes to the Dongtian Society to listen to the news, so it is much cheaper, and the Dongtian Association is very sincere at this point, worthy of the No. 1 news trading organization in the Qiyun Mountain Range.
After Tang Chenglin finished the transaction, he walked downstairs and put the cloak in the room downstairs. walked out of the attic with Lan Wanting and walked side by side in the alley outside the building.
"So, you still have to go to the auction house, but the auction house of this Treasure Pavilion is not just a matter of entering, if there is no acquaintance to introduce you, I am afraid it will not be so close. Lan Wanting listened to Tang Chenglin's statement and walked as she spoke.
Tang Chenglin joked: "Then let's see if my reputation as a disciple of Elder Qiao of Poor Ming Mountain is good!"
Lan Wanting chuckled, "Okay!"
Suddenly, the two of them stopped at the same time, and the conversation between the two of them was covered by a soundproof method, which could not be heard by mortals or people whose cultivation was much lower than the two of them, and the aura cultivation that suddenly appeared at this time was similar to Lan Wanting's, or even slightly worse.
Lan Wanting quickly took out a soft sword, pointed forward and said angrily: "Who is sneaky and hasn't shown up yet?" Tang Chenglin looked at it with a light smile, this person's cultivation was within his control, so it was better to take this opportunity to appreciate the different styles of his junior sister.
"The two Taoist friends have no malice in the future. A figure appeared in front of them, taking off his cloak and hat, revealing his true face.
"Who is Your Excellency?" Lan Wanting's soft sword pointed at him, and the soft sword was only a stone's throw away from the tip of this person's nose.
"In the Lower Wanyi Sect - Li Han!" Li Han smiled lightly, "I have heard the names of Tang Daoyou and Lan Daoyou for a long time, I guess there must be some difficulties between the two, right?"
Lan Wanting put away the soft sword, but her tone was still a little angry: "How do you know?"
"In the attic of the Cave Heaven Society before, the cloak man in our compartment is Your Excellency, right?" Tang Chenglin suddenly spoke.
"That's right. Li Han admitted it calmly, at that time, the two were talking at the door, like Tang Chenglin and Lan Wanting, who were some famous people, Li Han remembered them clearly.
"Then how do you know that we are in trouble?" Lan Wanting still looked at her suspiciously, and said, people like Li Han really couldn't convince her.
Li Han listened to it and chuckled: "This is not difficult, although the two of them use the sound insulation cover, they can clearly see the expressions of the two of them, although Tang Daoyou is very calm, but Lan Daoyou has a trace of sadness, presumably the relationship between the two is not simple." I also heard that Tang Daoyou's natal flying sword was damaged, so he must be looking for cultivation materials!"
"Admire," Tang Chenglin was also a little surprised, "Daoist friends are quick to think, this kind of intelligence can't be compared, hey, I know the master of this Qiyun Mountain Range, I have never heard of the name of Daoist before?"
"Tang Daoyou has won the award, but he is just a nobody," Li Han said, "Jianbao Pavilion has also been to Xia, why don't I introduce Daoyou?"
"That's very good, then thank you Brother Li. Tang Chenglin was not a polite person, so he agreed immediately.
"Tang Daoyou is polite, with Your Excellency's cultivation and fame, the people of Jianbao Pavilion will definitely open the door wide, waiting for Daoyou...... "The two of them talked very happily", while walking, the backward Lan Wanting puffed out her face, and was very dissatisfied with Tang Chenglin's disregard for her.
An hour later, the trio entered a wing room on the second floor under the guidance of a Treasure Pavilion director.
"It's a bit too troublesome, I think it's okay to have a place. Looking at the many monks downstairs crowded into the noisy seats, Tang Chenglin felt that the three of them were a little comfortable, enjoying the large room.
The director said with a smile on his face: "How come, it is our honor for Tang Daoyou to come here, naturally we want to prepare a room, besides, this is also what Li Daoyou meant." ”
"Eh, it should be, this place is condescending, and Tang Daoyou is also easy to observe. Li Han smiled lightly, and even the supervisor felt that he was full of flattery.
"Senior brother, I really don't like this person. Lan Wanting whispered to Tang Chenglin that she was the daughter of an elder, and she really didn't like this kind of flatterer, so she naturally had no good impression of Li Han.
Tang Chenglin also said: "Believe me, junior sister, this person is by no means as simple as we think, otherwise how would I pay attention to him!"
When Lan Wanting heard it, she also felt that there was some truth, Tang Chenglin was not the one who ate this set. That's it, and try to behave as normally as possible.
After finishing the transmission, Tang Chenglin found that Li Han was staring at a middle-aged man coming in at the entrance entrance, and asked curiously: "What, is there anything special about that person, Li Daoyou?"
Li Han blew the hot tea lightly, frowned and said: "This person is naturally nothing special, it's just that I see that his outfit is extraordinary, and he is going to walk to the auction table again, he should be the one who presides over the auction today, but how do I remember that today's auction should be presided over by the two great elders of the Thousand Machine Pavilion?"
"That's true," the chief manager also responded, "I heard today that these two Great Elders of the Thousand Machines Pavilion have missed their appointment for some reason, and I heard that something urgent has happened. ”
Tang Chenglin was not interested in these, and said: "Daoist friends, let's get busy, we understand the next thing." ”
"Then I won't bother with it. After the manager finished speaking, he left, he naturally wished to leave earlier, today's auction was very busy, if it weren't for Meng Yuanping's face, he wouldn't want to pay attention to Li Han.
