Chapter 163: Qualifying
(Tomorrow)
Chapter 1: July Frost
Lao Dao nodded: "That's the only rumor from the outside world." β
Guo Xiaoxiao pursed her lips: "It's equal to nothing." Forget it, don't ask. Then he withdrew his gaze and talked to Jiang Ying about other things.
Soon it was dusk, and the two found an inn to stay in.
After another two days, the medium-sized auction began.
Guo Xiaoxiao has been here, and the people in the fort recognize him, plus he has an identity tag, so there is no obstacle to entering.
Inside the main fort is a spacious and bright lobby.
The lobby on the first floor is equipped with a full set of tables and chairs made of pear blossom wood, and there is a private room separated by a screen on the side, and the exhibition stand is in front.
The second floor is a luxurious wing, with a hollow fence of ten thousand beasts on one side, which can overlook the entire first floor. There is also a screen standing on one side, which can be used by some VIPs who do not want to show their faces.
The other three sides are covered with heavy pear wood partitions to ensure the cleanliness and privacy of the interior.
Jiang Ying and Guo Xiaoxiao belong to the visitors, and they don't have a good family background, so they naturally sit on the first floor.
There were many people along the way, and the lobby on the first floor was full before dark.
There was room for the second floor of the Accord, and during this period, two Taoists from the Yunshan Sect came together, but Jiang Ying and the two were not familiar with him, and they didn't want to attract attention, so they didn't go to salute and say hello.
After dark, the auction will start as scheduled.
A high-grade seven-grade treasure robe, a Luo Fei sword, and a high-grade eight-grade jade Ruyi.
The three treasures are auctioned in turn, and the one with the highest price gets it, and it is traded on the spot.
The scene was very lively.
In particular, Luo Feijian was made by a Jindan sword cultivator, and later this life was exhausted, and this sword was sealed in the relic's mansion, and it fell to Jiang Bian Bao's hand Zheng many years later
Jiang Bian Fort was originally a chamber of commerce, mainly business, so it turned around and put it on the auction.
The sword that was cultivated by the Jindan Sword will never be bad in its own condition.
In addition, the information in the relics shows that this sword has not been formed so far, and there is no owner, so it is a good sword that is worth cultivating.
There were many disciples of famous families and big sects present, so soon this sword was called out.
At least for Jiang Ying and Guo Xiaoxiao, it's a price.
A Taoist from the Yunshan Sect was also quite interested in this, and participated many times, but after exceeding a certain limit, he stopped fighting for it.
In the end, this sword was auctioned for a high-grade spirit stone, which was converted into a million spirit coins.
The rest of the treasure clothes and jade ruyi were auctioned off at the price of 150,000 spirit coins and 370,000 spirit coins respectively.
After the auction, there is still some time for the attendees to mingle, and the hall will not close until half an hour later.
Of course, everyone wants to see the three treasures auctioned off, and the three new owners of the treasures are not stingy, and they communicate with people generously and show them to others.
Jiang Ying and Guo Xiaoxiao were mixed in the crowd and looked left and right, and when it was time for the museum to close, everyone dispersed one after another.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the museum.
Faintly, you can hear everyone talking or greeting some people, and it seems that there are three great families.
Guo Xiaoxiao paused, listened to it, and said in surprise: "The three families are here?...... Let's go, let's see!"
Then he pulled Jiang Ying and ran out.
Outside the pavilion, the current heads and children of the three great families were walking towards the hall while greeting the monks who had come forward to greet them.
They are here to participate in the next auction of Jiang Bian Fort, such an auction is grand and solemn, and the people invited are all top figures from all parties, and Jiang Bian Bao naturally cannot be treated badly.
Ten days before the start of the conference, participants from all parties can come to Jiangbian Fort, stay in the VIP room in the fort, and wait for the rest of the people to come, and learn about the auction items in the fort.
These three people are the ones who came early, and it seems that they have agreed with each other, or inquire about each other's time, and come together.
The two walked outside the fort, and it happened that the people of the three major families also came to the gate of the fort.
On the side of each head of the family, they are followed by their respective wives and children, two heads of the family, and so on.
In the rear were retinue servants.
Probably because I don't want to be too public, there are not many people with me.
It's just that the jewels and noble aura on their bodies make them different even if they blend into the crowd, and they can be recognized at a glance.
Jiang Ying was not familiar with the affairs of the three major families, and after glancing at them, he didn't look at them anymore.
However, Guo Xiaoxiao had great enthusiasm, the crowd was crowded, and it was difficult for her to get closer, so she stood on tiptoe to look, obviously wanting to see the girl who had been regained by the Hua family.
Jiang Ying, who originally wanted to leave after taking a look, was stopped by her and stood at the door waiting.
finally waited for the other team to come to the gate, because the people in the hall were all going out before, even if they were enthusiastic, they didn't always follow it, at this time, there were fewer and fewer people near the three families, and Guo Xiaoxiao and the two finally had more vision.
At this time, Guo Xiaoxiao said "Huh", and happily pulled the corner of Jiang Yingyi's clothes and motioned Jiang Ying to look over.
Jiang Ying followed her gaze and saw that behind the head of the Hua family she had introduced, followed by a girl dressed very luxuriously, happily waving to all the monks who greeted the Hua family.
When passing by Jiang Ying and Guo Xiaoxiao, the girl also looked at them and wanted to greet them.
However, when they met Jiang Ying's gaze, the two were stunned one after another, and the girl's face obviously changed from smiling and blinking.
Jiang Ying also glanced at it inadvertently, and suddenly stared at it, his long eyebrows gradually twisted together, and a cold light was inadvertently revealed in his eyes.
......
July frost.
......
Jiang Ying's face became deeper and deeper, looking at the girl opposite Chang Lian's face that had not changed much, and the thoughts and doubts in her eyes were clearly visible.
She thought for a moment and was about to speak.
At this time, Qishuang's eyes widened, and a smoke ran over to cover her mouth first.
Jiang Ying originally suspected that she was denying her mistake, suspecting that the other side was just a similar-looking person, but with this move, she reversed this guess.
It's clear in my eyes.
Qishuang's actions also alarmed the head of the Hua family and the head of the house in front of him.
They looked back and saw that she had flown over a strange woman, and they stopped in surprise.
The second head of the Hua family is her current father, because of the recovery of such a highly qualified daughter, her status in the Hua family has advanced by leaps and bounds, such as a steady progress, after the abdication of the old family, he is very likely to be the next master.
"July?" he called out strangely.
Guo Xiaoxiao, who was also surprised, also said strangely: "Huh?
At this time, Qishuang's face was even worse, and it was simply pale.
Her hand covering Jiang Ying's mouth tightened again, and Jiang Ying's face was strangled with white marks.
"Huh? ah...... That, that, I've met an old friend, let's talk about Daddy first!" she covered Jiang Ying's mouth, and turned Jiang Ying to a far corner with a cigarette.
............
After avoiding Zhongrao's sight, Qishuang stopped, and repeatedly made sure that there was no one around, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Shhhhhh
Jiang Ying saw her series of actions, coupled with her understanding of the "flower girl", at this time, she had already guessed something, so she was not surprised at the beginning, and looked at her with her arms in interest.
Qishuang withdrew her gaze from a distance, and when she saw her expression, she chuckled for no reason.
Seeing that Jiang Ying was silent for a long time, she asked anxiously, "Why are you here?"
Seeing that Jiang Ying was still silent while holding her arm, she was a little anxious: "What are you talking about?"
"Didn't you let me? β
β......β
Qishuang patted her arm angrily: "Don't be kidding, you." β
Jiang Ying's eyes sank suddenly, and the invisible oppressive force instantly revealed: "Why don't you go first?"
The light of July Frost's eyes suddenly flashed, and there was a faint burst of emptiness.
"I ...... What am I?"
"Why are you here?"
"I ...... I'm not...... I ......"
"Did you find it yourself?"
"Ahh
Jiang Ying sneered in his heart, but he didn't pierce it, and asked again: "Then how did you find it?"
Seeing that she seemed to be chatting, Qishuang's tone relaxed a lot, and her body was not so tense: "Look everywhere." Hmph, you're embarrassed to ask me what your intentions are in leaving me alone in that house!"
Jiang Ying shrugged and said, "I was sure that you wouldn't dare to jump off that cliff, it was the most appropriate for you and me to separate there, who knew that you came down."
Then I can take you to find it, but I don't guarantee to take you to the place. Coupled with the fact that you have put me in danger many times before, it should not be what you expected for me to leave you there?"
Qishuang was angry when she heard this: "But there is no way back to that place, you left me there, wouldn't it make me trapped for the rest of my life?!"
"If you are trapped, the village is beautiful, and the few families are friendly and hospitable.
The fact that they have been able to live in the cluster for so long also proves that the cluster is not short of supplies and that people are enough to earn a living.
Wouldn't it be better to stay in such an environment than to survive by begging where you were?
Since you came to the cluster by looking for it on your own, then you should know how difficult and dangerous the journey to the cluster is.
If I take you with me, you and I will have the possibility of dying on the way, and I will leave you in the village, which is the best solution after you choose to jump off the cliff irretrievably, do you still think I have no conscience?"
Qishuang was dumbfounded by her, completely unable to refute it.
If what she thinks is good is not really good, but in fact she doesn't have to do it at all, then what's there to blame.
If she turns the page like this, she always feels uneasy, after all, she really threw herself in the place where the bird doesn't poop and walked away.
Qishuang thought about it and pursed her lips with a little indignation.
Jiang Ying ignored her and continued to ask, "How long did it take you to wake up after you fell unconscious?"
Qishuang's eyes flashed, and after three breaths, she replied: "Probably...... How many days?"
"How many days?"
"Hmm...... I...... I don't remember exactly, but probably ...... For a day or two. β
Jiang Ying smiled slightly, and then hugged his arms again: "Oh? Are you sure?"
As soon as Qishuang saw her expression, she remembered the experience of being cheated by her, and her back couldn't help but feel cold.
But even so, she still forced herself to calm down and said, "I ...... Not so sure. β
Seeing that Jiang Ying's eyes changed again, she immediately preemptively said: "I forgot about things that have been too long, anyway, it may be one or two days, it may be five or six days, or it may be two or three days...... Anyway, a few days!"
Jiang Ying sneered again: "I'll ask again, you, are you sure?"
This made July Frost's heart even more panicked, her eyes sparkling, and she didn't know what to do.
"I ......"
Jiang Ying saw it in his eyes, and at the same time had a series of speculations in his heart.
Naturally, she was scaring July Frost, because she didn't know the exact time when July Frost woke up, and she also didn't know the exact time when the medicine she had given worked on July Frost's body.
In other words, the "days" in the July frost mouth can be counted as reasonable no matter how many days it is.
She was just making a guess, a guess at worst.
ββThere are people behind the July frost to help, and it is not as simple as being alone on the surface.
And now, July Frost's reaction has made her feel complicated.
She thought about it for a while, and said directly: "You lie, there is someone behind you." β
Qishuang was really panicked again, and it took a while before he squeezed out a sentence: "What ...... you?"
Jiang Ying's heart sank and sank, but his face was still silent.
Thinking of Qishuang's "identity" today and a series of reactions, she said: "You don't need to hide it, your presence here now proves that something has happened and is irreparable."
But if you confess what happened at that time, you and I can treat it as if we never met. If you don't talk about it, I don't mind talking to your Hua family about what you went through before you entered."
When July Frost heard this, her face changed greatly.
"You threaten me?!"
Jiang Ying was indifferent: "Didn't you bring me here precisely because you couldn't afford the risk of exposure?"
"You!"
"I'm just like you, saving my life, you don't need to be too jealous. β
"Survival?"
"I heard that the Hua family has found a long-lost daughter, and this person is an ice spirit root with a high degree of fit. Combined with your vision when Qishuang was a child, as well as the reaction and title of the second head of your Hua family, and then looking at your current clothes, it is not difficult to guess that you are the young girl, isn't it?
And you, a person from a dynasty without immortal arts, how can you be the daughter of a flower family with a long history?
The only possibility can only be that you impersonate, and the Hua family and the other two seem to be peaceful, but in fact the dark tide is turbulent. If you are told that you are not the real heir of the Hua family, how do you think the Hua family and the other two families will treat you?"
July Frost frowned: "What does that have to do with saving your life?"
Jiang Ying smiled and said, "Even if you have been here for a few years, I guess you will not forget how much grievances my Jiang family and dynasty, and these people in Sikong Mansion have, right?"
"You suspect that I have cooperated with Sikong Mansion?"
"Yes. β
"I'm not anymore, I'm not joining forces with them. β
"Then you have to tell me who you're working with. In addition to Sikong Mansion, who else covets the fairyland, and why are you able to cross the danger to come to the cluster? β
