Chapter 39: Autumn Moon

"Where did these people come from?"

Xiang Hui stood under the gate of the trading house, looking at the crowded hall in front of him and the long queue of treasures, and muttered with a frown: "It can't be that the treasure rain has fallen from the sky, otherwise how could so many monks come to appreciate the treasures......"

At this moment, the hall was crowded with people and long queues, but inside, many auctioneers were divided into dozens of lines, or waiting outside the treasure appraisal room, waiting for the predecessors to exit and enter by themselves, or leisurely walking towards the entrance of the store, and disappeared into the passage under the indifferent gaze of the entrance guard.

If it weren't for the large enough space in the front hall, the wide enough passage, and the good quality of the people, it would have been congested and noisy.

"There are so many people, when will they be ......" Xiang Hui muttered dissatisfiedly, then took a light breath, reorganized his mood, and walked towards the entrance on the right side of the store.

At this time, there was no one else outside the entrance, only two guards standing silently.

The two guards, dressed in red robes and wearing red-sheathed swords at their waists, each had a red leaf badge in the shape of five palms on the placket of their chests.

"Daoyou stop!" When Xiang came back to the entrance, but when he saw the guard on the right, he suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Xiang Hui and stopped Xiang Hui on the ground.

Seeing this, Xiang turned around for a moment, then turned his eyes to look at the guard, and said with a slight frown: "What?"

Seeing Xiang Hui stop, the guard nodded to Xiang Hui, then withdrew his arm, and said in an indifferent tone: "Fellow Daoist, please show the invitation letter, or the consignment order." ”

Xiang Hui looked stunned, and said with a confused expression: "What invitation ......?"

Hearing this, the guard's eyes flashed, and then he said with a slight gaze: "The invitation letter and the consignment order are tokens for participating in the auction. ”

"What?" Xiang Hui raised his eyebrows, and said with a stunned expression: "What kind of rule is this, to participate in an auction, you even need a token......

Hearing this, the guard was slightly silent, and then opened his mouth and said, "In that case, please leave quickly." ”

After speaking, the guard nodded lightly to Xiang Hui, and then retreated to his original position, looking dutiful.

Seeing this, Xiang Hui frowned, then turned his neck, glanced at the bustling treasure room and consignment table behind him, and then turned his gaze to the guard, and asked tentatively, "Can you be accommodating?"

Between the words, Xiang Hui raised his hand and wiped the Qiankun bracelet, took out two golden spirit coins, and said with a smile behind him: "Of course, Xiang will naturally not treat the two of you badly!"

Who knows, Xiang Hui, who inherited Xiang Nanfeng and tried and tested methods repeatedly among the clan, ushered in a huge defeat here!

"Daoyou Hugh wants to mess around!" Seeing this, the corner of the guard's eyes jumped, the blue tendons on his forehead gradually became angry, and he shouted in a deep voice with a shy face: "Please also ask Daoyou to leave quickly, if you are so nonsense, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

As he spoke, the two of them suddenly raised their hands to hold their swords, and then took a step forward at the same time.

Call!

But listening to a soft sound, a faint aura fluctuation suddenly spread out from the bodies of the two guards, and on the scabbard in their hands, a faint yellow glow emanated.

Seeing this, Xiang Hui's face froze, and when he suddenly felt ashamed and angry in his heart, a nameless fire also rose, but when he saw his eyes glaring, he then shouted in a deep voice in annoyance: "Bastard! Open the door to do business, how can there be a reason not to let in, you can find fault!"

Hearing this, the two guards' faces changed, and they were about to open their mouths to scold, but their eyes suddenly moved, and they immediately retreated and stood on the ground, and then lowered their heads and said, "Miss." ”

"Humph!"

At the same time, but listening to a soft cold snort, behind Xiang Hui, a young woman was strolling over.

The woman, dressed in an autumn red slim cheongsam, the cheongsam is bright in color, the patterns on it are staggered and orderly, on the left side of the chest, there is also a bright autumn leaf badge;

But seeing the woman, while strolling forward, the corners of her mouth suddenly twitched, and she said indifferently: "Who is so bold and dares to make trouble in my Autumn Leaves City." ”

Hearing this, Xiang Hui frowned, then turned his body and looked at the woman who was strolling behind him with an unkind gaze.

After distinguishing the other party's face, Xiang Hui's eyes flashed with surprise, and he blurted out a low voice: "It's you!"

It turned out that this woman was the woman who had a one-time relationship with Xiang Hui in the Treasure Pavilion a few days ago.

However, although this woman has only had a one-sided relationship with Xiang Hui, Xiang Hui has a quite good impression of this woman. And this good impression does not come from the beauty of this woman, but from the other party's generous patronage and giving himself discounts.

Seeing that the person who came was Xiang Hui, the woman raised her eyebrows, but there was not much surprise on her face, but when she saw this woman, she looked down at Xiang Hui with her head slightly raised, and then said with a slight pruning of the corners of her mouth: "Who am I, it turned out to be you little ghost." ”

Between the words, the woman raised her jade hand lightly, pulled the hair behind her ear, and then said indifferently: "What's the matter, little guy, how did I offend you?"

"Your guest house?" Xiang Hui was stunned for a moment, then his eyes were deflected, and he looked at the other party with a slight frown, the autumn leaf badge on his chest.

"En?" After a while, Xiang Hui suddenly stared, and then whispered dumbfounded: "Could it be that you are the master of this trading house!"

Hearing this, the woman shrugged her shoulders noncommittally, then folded her arms around her chest, rolled her eyes and said, "Miss Ben has a name and a surname, what are you, my ......?"

"This ......" Seeing that the other party acquiesced, a black line suddenly appeared on Xiang Hui's forehead, and there was no reason in his heart, giving birth to a touch of embarrassment.

"Ahem!" After a moment, Xiang let out a dry cough on his head, then scratched his temples with a dry smile, and opened his mouth to say, "That, hello, we meet again......"

......Seeing this, the woman rolled her eyes with black lines, and then shook her head slightly at the corner of her mouth, and said to the two guards: "This little ghost is my friend, you don't have to pay attention to it." ”

Hearing this, the two guards turned straight faces, and then lowered their heads and said, "Yes!"

Seeing this, the woman nodded slightly, then glanced at Xiang Hui, and said with a slight pruning of the corners of her mouth: "Let's go, little brother, my sister will take you to see the scene." ”

After speaking, the woman moved lightly and walked straight towards the passage.

"Hey, hey. Seeing this, Xiang Hui moved his eyes, then grinned at the two guards, and rushed into the passage with arrows.

......

"That...... Dare to ask my sister's name?"

"Autumn Moon. ”

"Uh, you're really the owner of this trading house?"

"Sort of. ”

"The Treasure Pavilion ......"

"Branch!"

In the passage, Xiang Hui and the woman walked side by side, during which Xiang Hui was calm and asked questions, the woman's expression gradually sank, and her voice gradually rose......

A moment later, as she walked into the end of the passage, Akizuki suddenly stopped, then raised her right hand and pressed it to the wall on her right.

Wheel......

In the sound of the wooden wheel turning, the painting wall on Qiu Yue's side slowly slashed to the side, revealing the two guards inside and a ring ladder behind her.

"Miss. Seeing that it was Qiu Yue, the two guards flashed their eyes, and after bowing their heads, they let the ring ladder behind them come out.

"Yes. Qiu Yue nodded slightly, and then walked calmly towards the ring ladder.

Seeing this, Xiang Hui smiled slightly, and then put his hands behind his back, and under the bowing of the two guards, he walked calmly through the ring staircase, and then turned into the circular corridor behind it.

This road is a shortcut to the distinguished guests.

Wheel......

When Xiang Hui and Qiu Yue turned into the circular corridor, the wall also closed automatically, returning to its previous appearance.

A moment later, Qiu Yue took Xiang Hui and walked through the arc-shaped corridor, and then stopped outside a distinguished guest room with a calm demeanor.

The door beam of the distinguished guest room is quite open, its body is based on brown sandalwood, above the wooden door, a picture of autumn maple leaves is finely carved, the door frame is carved with a unique pattern, in the center above the door beam, carved with a large unlacquered character - one.

If you look to the right along the door of this room, you can find that on the door on the right, there are odd characters such as equal three, five, and seven carved in the order of extension, and on the door on the left, there are even numbers such as two, four, and land carved in the order of delay.

Chirping......

Qiu Yue squinted at Xiang Hui, who was looking at Xiang Hui, who was looking around, and then raised her right hand, opened the guest door in front of her, and stepped into the guest room first.

"The environment is good. Seeing this, Xiang Hui smiled slightly, withdrew his gaze from the surrounding utensils, and then nodded calmly, and followed Qiu Yue into the room.

This guest room is much more spacious than the others, the floor is covered with soft carpets, the walls on both sides are carved with a maple relief, and in the corners on both sides of the entrance, there are two celadon vases as tall as a person, and dense ivy is planted in them.

At the innermost end of the room is the crystal window visible from the entrance.

The crystal window is transparent and flush, like a huge glass pane, completely occupying the inner wall. If you look through this crystal window, you can clearly see the situation in the entire auction hall.

In front of the wall-lined crystal window, there is a circular wooden table and nine wooden chairs. The wooden table, by the window, was made of tan sandalwood, on which there were no carvings or carvings, except for the clarity of the sandalwood itself, and the nine wooden chairs, enclosed under the wooden table, with soft backrests and armrests.

At this time, on the wooden chair in the center, there was a middle-aged man sitting there.

The man, dressed in a white brocade robe with blue stripes and a golden crown and hat, had thick eyebrows and handsome eyes, a straight nose, a square mouth and lips, and his eyes were deep and bright, wise and outward, and he looked quite elegant, with the elegance of a scribe.

At this time, the man sat on a wooden chair and looked at the autumn moon through the door with a smile.

"Father?" When she saw the middle-aged man, Qiu Yue'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and she blurted out a happy exhalation: "You come back and pull!"

"Huh. Seeing this, the middle-aged man smiled, and then chuckled and said, "I have already worshiped your mother, and my family has nothing important, so I came back early." ”

Between the words, the middle-aged man turned his gaze, then looked at Xiang Hui behind him, and asked with a chuckle, "Who is this little friend?"

Hearing this, Qiu Yue was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Xiang Hui with slanted eyes, and said with a slight pruning of the corners of her mouth: "This little ghost is the big ...... of the Treasure Pavilion." Customers, come and join in the fun. ”

"Hey, hey. Hearing this, Xiang Hui let out a dry laugh with a little embarrassment, and then he hugged his fist at the middle-aged man and said, "Boy Xiang Hui, I have seen the Lord of Qiu City." ”
