Chapter 10 World Auction House
Before Xia Yang could reach the room, he heard Xueer's voice from afar. Xueer said, "Sister Qing'er, have you seen my brother Xia Yang? I searched all over the Xia family, but I didn't see him. Even I went to search for the place where Brother Xia Yang practiced in the back mountain, but I still couldn't find it?"
Qing'er replied, "Miss Xue'er, I don't know the whereabouts of the young master. I didn't see the young master when I came in the morning. But since the young master promised Miss Xue'er, I think the young master will look for you soon. The young master may have delayed other things." Qing'er comforted Xue'er, who was a little anxious.
"Where has Brother Xia Yang gone? See how I find him to deal with him later, hum." Xueer seemed to be talking to Qing'er, as if she was talking to herself. Qing'er smiled helplessly. Just as she was about to talk, she looked up and saw Xia Yang walking from a distance. Xia Yang's voice came: "Is there anything wrong with Sister Xue'er looking for me? I just heard someone say she wanted to deal with me." Xia Yang had already come to the two of them after saying that.
Qing'er bent down and saluted to Xia Yang and said, "Young Master is back. I'll go prepare for food." Turning around and smiling, he said to Xia Yaoxue, "Miss Xueer hasn't eaten yet." Xia Yaoxue said, "Yes, Sister Qing'er, I'm just looking for Brother Xia Yang. Xueer's belly is still empty, so it's better for Sister Qing'er. I don't expect that some people have forgotten to agree to what they have done. Hum!" Xueer said the first half of the sentence to Qing'er, and then started to attack Xia Yang again. Xia Yang looked at Xueer who was pouting his mouth helplessly, shook his head and said to Qing'er, "Qinger, go and prepare. After the meal, you go to the Tianxia Auction House with us."
"Yes, young master." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the kitchen.
When Xia Yaoxue heard Xia Yang say that the world auction house knew that Xia Yang was teasing her, she said coquettishly: "I'll tell my uncle that Brother Xia Yang bullies me."
Xia Yang smiled and said, "Good Xueer, it's Brother Xia Yang that's bad. Brother Xia Yang apologizes you, okay? If there is something you like in the auction house later, Brother Xia Yang will buy it for you."
When Xia Yaoxue heard Xia Yang's words, she said happily: "Really? Xueer didn't force Brother Xia Yang, it was Brother Xia Yang's voluntary."
Xia Yang nodded and said, "Yes, it was Brother Xia Yang's voluntary, you little girl movie." After saying that, Xia Yang pinched Xiaoyaoxue's nose and said, "Don't be outside, go into the house." After saying that, he pushed the door and entered, Xia Yaoxue followed behind him.
Not long after, Qing'er brought a steaming breakfast. Xia Yang practiced all night and was indeed a little hungry. Xue'er got up early in the morning to look for Xia Yang. The two of them didn't say much and started eating quickly.
Qing'er, who was standing beside her, looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "Master, Miss Xueer eats slowly. If it is not enough, I will get it in the kitchen." Xia Yang shook his head and said: "No need."
Soon the two finished their meal. Xueer touched her stomach and said, "It's so full, Sister Qing'er's craftsmanship is getting better and better. If anyone marrys you in the future, she can eat the dishes you cook every day, and she will enjoy it."
Qing'er's cheeks were slightly red and she said coquettishly: "Miss Xue'er made fun of me. As long as she could follow the young master and serve the young master, Qing'er would be satisfied." After that, she secretly looked at Xia Yang, then quickly lowered her head, packed up the plate on the table and walked out.
Xueer looked at Xia Yang cunningly, her eyes full of malicious intentions, and she didn't say a word, making Xia Yang feel helpless.
Xia Yang had no choice but to change the topic and said, "Let's rest for a while, and we will set off for the Tianxia Auction House." Not long after, Qing'er returned to Xia Yang's room. After a little rest, the three of them stood up and walked outside. Xia Yang and the others did not take the guards, and walked on the street to watch the pedestrians passing by. The vendors were hawking each other and making a prosperous scene. Qing'er was a little better, and Xue'er was like a cheerful butterfly. She came to the stall on the left and was attracted by the items in front. She looked extremely busy.
For the three, ordinary things cannot arouse the three of them at all. As for Xueer running around and patronizing the stalls on both sides of the road, it was entirely because of curiosity. On the way to the auction house, Xia Yang kept hearing some people dressed in warriors discussing the matter of this auction house.
Not far ahead of Xia Yang, there were three people, one of whom was in the middle stage of Qi Condensation Stage, and the other two were in the early stage of Qi Condensation Stage. As they were talking about the contents of the auction, one of them said: "Wang Laosan, I heard that this auction not only contains various spiritual medicines, but also the best treasure auction. The weapons you and I are using now are also low-quality treasures. If we could have a top-quality treasure, we would not be so embarrassed when we met Wang Quan in the Red Leaf Forest last time. It's a pity that the Scrophularia ginseng was picked."
The man called Wang Lao San nodded and said, "No matter what, we will get a handy treasure for a while." After saying that, he said to another person: "Brother, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find valuable things on the periphery of the Red Leaf Forest now. Some powerful adventure teams are now heading deeper. If we cannot improve our strength, the Red Leaf Forest will not have our foothold. On the contrary, if we can get a top-quality treasure in the auction venue, our strength will be increased to a higher level overall, and we will also have a guarantee in future adventures."
Li Yuan, who was speaking just now, looked at Wang Laosan and said playfully: "I can't see it. Laosan, you can see it thoroughly. However, it's not only us who have the idea of us. There are not many other adventure teams we have encountered along the way. There are a few who are slightly higher than us. It is not easy to get a suitable treasure under such fierce competition."
The one who had never spoken was their elder brother, named Huang Chengshan, who was nicknamed "Liudao". He had a rare rival in the same level with his sword skills. He only heard this person's voice loud and said to the two: "Okay, let's go. No matter how much the price he paid, we must fight for it."
Xia Yang was listening to the conversation between the three of them carefully. It was not until the three of them quickly walked forward that they regained their mental power. Xia Yang got a lot of useful information from it and had a certain understanding of the situation inside and outside of Hongyesen. After looking at the hour, Xia Yang said to the two people who were picking items in the stall: "Go away quickly, if you don't leave, the auction will begin."
"I know, let's go now. Sister Qing'er, let's go." After saying that, Xue'er pulled Qing'er towards the direction of the auction house. Xia Yang curled his lips helplessly, shook his head and quickly caught up with the two of them.
Not long after, a not-tall building appeared in front of the three people. The crowds in front of the door were the place where the Tianxia Auction House branch was stationed in Hongye City. Xia Yang stopped in front of the auction house and thought of what his father had said to him. The Tianxia Auction House was the most auction house in the entire Qin Empire, and its business was spread throughout most of the Dongji Region. Even the royal family had to give Tianxia Auction House a little thin. The owner's strength was unfathomable, and at least it was the mid-stage Guyuan cultivation.
There were two rows of guards standing at the door of the auction house, and their cultivation was generally at the eighth level of the Body Refining Stage. I saw that the cultivation level of the guards who thought the leader was at the peak of the early stage of the Qi Condensing Stage. It can be seen that the strength of the World Auction House cannot be underestimated, and even the guards at the door must be at the eighth level of the Body Refining Stage. Moreover, each of them had no expression on their faces and a murderous aura was revealed all over their bodies. It can be seen that these people have experienced a lot of killings.
Xia Yang and the other two did not stay too much and soon entered the auction house. The first floor of the auction house was used to rent it to those adventure teams. First, it could attract popularity to collect information, and second, it facilitates transactions between warriors. After all, the weapons or secrets obtained by warriors are not necessarily suitable for them. Through the auction house, you can exchange what you need, or buy a good price to get a generous amount of gold coins. The auction house only charges 5% of the transaction as a commission. Many adventure teams choose to complete the transaction here because no one will offend the powerful Tianxia Auction House because of external objects.
The stalls in the lobby on the first floor were full of people. The owners of the stalls didn't want to miss this opportunity. They wanted to exchange items that were not available for gold coins or suitable magic weapons. People kept asking for the treasures that suited them. Some people had more than one person who looked at the same treasure at some stalls. Although they were fighting, no one was fighting for this. From this point of view, it was obvious that it was too difficult to get to the auction house's mysterious power.
Today's auction was held on the second floor. When the three of them arrived at the second floor, they saw hundreds of seats in the venue of about a thousand square meters, almost full of people. Xueer looked at the crowded venue and wrinkled her nose, and said dissatisfiedly: "How could Brother Xia Yang have so many people? How can we get in?" Before Xia Yang could say it, she saw Xia Wu, the leader of the guard at home, coming to the three of them and saying: "Young Master Yang, Miss Xueer, the eldest Master and the eldest Master are all in the VIP Room No. 3 upstairs. The eldest Master asked his subordinates to come over and ask if you are going there."
Xia Yang looked at the venue and said to Xueer and the others: "Let's go upstairs, you've seen it here too."
"Okay, Sister Qing'er, let's go up." Xue'er said reluctantly, then took Qing'er's hand and said to the guard leader: "Let's lead the way." "Yes, Miss." After that, Xia Wu turned around and walked towards the stairs next to him. Xia Yang and the other two followed behind. The four of them came to the second floor and walked to the left. When they arrived at the entrance of the room with the third row in front of the door, the guard leader shouted: "Big Master, Master Xia Yang, Miss Xue'er is here."
Xiahou Ming's loud voice came from inside, "Come in." After hearing the answer, the guard leader pushed open the door and said to the three people behind him, "Young master, please come in, Miss." Xia Yang nodded and walked into the room.
When Xia Yang entered the room, he found that in addition to Xiahou Ming, the second uncle Xiahou Yi was also out of Xia Yang's surprise that his eldest brother Xia Ye was also there. When Xia Yang looked at Xia Ye, Xia Ye returned with a smile on the other side, nodded to signal Xia Yang to move forward and come to everyone, and saluted: "Yang'er has met his father, second uncle." Xiahou Ming said with a smile: "You are here just right, and the auction is about to begin."
Xiahou Ming coughed lightly and said seriously: "Not only did the city lord send experts here at this auction, but Xu and Wang families were also at the venue. Needless to say, the people in the city lord's mansion were in the VIP Room No. 1, and the Xu family was in the No. 4, Wang family was in the No. 5. Today's auction should not go very smoothly. Not to mention the other things about the quenching grass, the Wang families are a must-fight. Who is Xiawu's No. 2 VIP Room No. 2? Is there any clue?"
"When I go back to the eldest young master, I haven't found the other party's identity yet. This person's identity is mysterious. I have no clues to ask for the eldest young master to punish him." After saying that, Xia Wu knelt on one knee, his shameless expression beyond words.
"Continue inquiring, I hope there is no conflict between the other party and my Xia family, get up." "Yes, thank you, Master." Xia Wu stood up and retreated. Xiahou Ming picked up the tea on the table and drank it all. He didn't know what he was thinking, and there was only a faint breathing sound in the room.
The same conversation was also staged in VIP Room No. 4 and VIP Room No. 5, but the characters were different. In VIP Room No. 4, Xu Yuansheng thought in his heart about what his father had told him. The quenching grass is a must-have for my Xu family. The entire city lord of Hongye City does not need to be considered. In the Xia, the Wang family can be the opponent, especially the Xia family. No matter how much the price they pay, they must get the quenching grass. Thinking of this, Xu Yuansheng clenched his fists and made up his mind to get the quenching grass no matter what. Xu Yuansheng suddenly thought of the mysterious person in VIP Room No. 2, so he asked: "Have you found the identity of VIP Room No. 2?" "Go back to the young master, my subordinates are incompetent and failed to find the other party's identity. Please punish him."
Xu Yuansheng snorted coldly, "Waste, what's the use of keeping you? Keep investigating." "It's the young master, my subordinates must do their best." Xu Yuansheng thought to himself, what is the origin of the other party? With the strength of the Xu family, there is no clue. I guess the Xia and Wang families have no clues. Thinking of this, Xu Yuansheng was secretly shocked, and a little uneasy arose in his heart. He waved away the uneasiness in his heart. Xu Yuansheng looked at the time. After about one stick of incense, the auction would begin. Xu Yuansheng closed his eyes and waited for the auction to begin.
There was also a scene in the VIP Room No. 5, but there was some extra content: "Shadow, find out the identity of the mysterious person?" Wang Tai, the eldest son of Wang Luo, the head of the Wang family, asked to the dark corner of the room. A cold and hard voice came from the darkness: "Master, his identity has not been confirmed yet. It was only found that this person came from the depths of the Red Leaf Forest. He was not a local person in Hongye City. His strength was unfathomable. As far as I know, the quenching grass was provided to the Tianxia Auction House by this person." "Okay, this matter is done well. Is there any other news? Has the Xia family and the Xu family made great moves recently?" "Back to the master, Xia and Xu families are under surveillance, and nothing has changed."
Wang Tai nodded and said, "Get back." A faint wave came from the darkness, and then the whole room was silent. An inexplicable light flashed in Wang Tai's eyes, and he didn't know how big a conspiracy was brewing in his heart.
