Chapter 158 Eye-opening

There is no doubt that the old man standing on the stage is a master.

It's hard to guess what level it is. When it first came out, everyone in the arena showed fear, and the dignitaries all nodded.

Yun'er returned to Liu Ningxuan, Bi'er went to Youlan's side, and several of them turned their attention to the box held by the maid.

The box was more than half a foot long and a foot wide. Mo Yu guessed it was a weapon.

The next moment, the old man gently lifted the wooden box with his left hand and opened it. Suddenly, a dazzling white light burst out, and the sharp energy spread out in all directions.

"The Wandering Dragon Spear is half a foot long and weighs thirty-five kilograms. The entire body is made of pure iron and gold. The tail is hollow and can be extended to a length of seven feet!"

The old man took out the spear, and there was an iron rod in the box. He took it out too. The iron rod connected with the tail of the spear and made a crisp neighing sound when he waved it.

"If the enemy is close to you, you can instantly remove the iron rod to deal with it."

While demonstrating, the old man quickly removed the iron rod, which attracted the surprised gazes of the photographers, who were ready to move.

As the saying goes, the opening should be a big hit. Seeing that the atmosphere was good, the old man put the spear back into the box and said loudly: "A lot of gold is easy to get, but a good soldier is hard to find. This Wandering Dragon Spear is the work of the master of Juebing Valley. It is the only one.

Don’t miss it anymore!”

Boom~

The four high-rise buildings boiled instantly. What kind of power is in Juebing Valley? All the magic weapons and weapons in the world can be found in it!

Every master's work will be recorded in the book. Anyone with a certain reputation in the world will wear the weapons forged in the Juebing Valley. Those high-ranking officials will also collect them.

There was a lot of noise, and quotations came and went. In just a few breaths, the price had increased from a low price of one thousand taels to more than ten thousand taels. The competition was fierce and it was breathtaking.

"The master's work is indeed extraordinary. This weapon alone has made the weapons seller a lot of money."

Mo Yu sighed sincerely, thinking that if he takes Youqi to participate in the auction, it will definitely be a priceless treasure, and there will be another bloody storm in the world. You and I will fight for it.

Thinking of this, Mo Yu's mind came back to what Fan Long said before, "A big tree attracts the wind, but it is easy to break if it is too strong." He remembered that his answer at that time was "If you want to show off in the forest, why be afraid of urging it."

It's a very arrogant and ridiculous answer, especially after experiencing life and death several times and having a better understanding of the waters of the rivers and lakes.

"Brother Mo, what are you doing?" Yun'er walked over curiously and waved her hand in front of Mo Yu.

Liu Ningxuan and Youlan looked sideways after hearing this.

"Young Master Mo, do you want this weapon?" Youlan's eyes lit up and she waved her hand to Bi'er to get ready to bid.

"No, no, no," Mo Yu hurriedly waved his hand to stop, pointed at the sword box behind him and said with a smile, "I use a sword. It is enough to have this one in my life. Miss Youlan has to worry about it."

"Oh, that's it."

Youlan looked at the sword box on Mo Yu's back. She was startled by this big black guy, and she couldn't bear it: "Young Master Mo must be tired from carrying such a heavy thing all the time."

"Otherwise," Mo Yu couldn't resist You Lan's tenderness and said calmly, "This is also a kind of practice. Now I have adapted to its weight. Putting it down is no different from carrying it on my back."

As he spoke, he casually took off the sword case and put it aside, feeling a little relaxed on his back.

From beginning to end, Liu Ningxuan didn't say a word, looking at the auction below with beautiful eyes as cold as water.

It didn't take long for the dust to settle on the first lot, and it was finally sold for 37,000 taels of silver. The buyer was a man in the world. I couldn't see his face clearly. I only knew that he had two companions. He hurriedly left after the auction.

Mo Yu's eyes flashed with understanding.

This kind of people use all their possessions to bid for things that suit them, and once they succeed, they immediately abdicate and leave, fearing that they will be targeted by those with evil intentions.

Fifty items are auctioned every day, and the second item is a martial arts secret book, which was leaked from the martial arts sect. Its value is not as high as that of the spear, but there are still people who are flocking to it.

"Mr. Mo, are you interested in this book on Catkins Sword Technique?" Youlan saw that there were so many people taking photos, and she couldn't help but start to care again.

"He is not suitable for this kind of gentle swordsmanship." Liu Ningxuan said calmly, pinched a grape into his mouth with his slender fingers, and chewed it lightly.

Being asked to answer on your behalf was a disrespectful thing, but Mo Yu felt a sense of comfort in his heart and chuckled: "What Ning Xuan said is absolutely true. Besides, I already have martial arts skills and sword manuals. Miss Youlan doesn't want it."

No more worrying about Mo."

As he finished speaking, he saw Youlan looking disappointed from the corner of his eye, so he had to add: "Of course, if there really is something that Mr. Mo likes, it won't be too late for Miss Youlan to help take the photo."

With such an answer, Youlan felt relieved, but Liu Ningxuan became even colder, making Mo Yu secretly complain and say that he shouldn't have come up.

The second lot was finally sold for 10,000 taels of silver. The owner of the lot was a thin man who was alone. After looking at the other people around him, he left his seat.

The process continued. The old man did not use fancy words or deliberately create an atmosphere. He simply displayed the items and introduced them, and the buyers would naturally start fighting over them.

The items are displayed one by one, of various kinds, each with its own style, medicines, weapons, exercises, antiques, clothing, household items... everything is available.

Those who reach the top are all masterpieces by famous artists, which satisfy the preferences of people of different statuses. There is no loss of bids, and each piece can be sold at a high price. Everyone is happy.

Mo Yu's eyes were opened. In the past, he had only heard about how grand the auction was, but now he felt deeply after actually experiencing it.

Zhang Cheng didn't take action, Lu Pingsong didn't take action, but Gu Yuan, an old guy, showed up.

Among the auction items was a heterogeneous fighting insect. It was unknown which master sold it, which caused several old men to bid excitedly. The one they were competing for was a red-faced and thick-necked one.

Among them, Gu Yuan was especially the one shouting for joy. Although his face was masked and his voice was deliberately suppressed, he couldn't hold it back and jumped from the second floor to the first floor, raising his arms and shouting loudly.

"This waste!"

In a room on the highest floor of the west building, Lu Ping's face trembled with anger. He slapped the table and stood up in anger. He looked at Gu Yuan coldly. If there was no one available in Wuyi Mountain, he would have blasted this guy long ago.

"Master Lu, why should you get angry over a clown? Come on, drink tea." Zhang Cheng narrowed his eyes and smiled, holding a cup of hot tea while drinking.

Lu Pingsong frowned when he heard this, thought for a while, sighed, sat back, and said casually: "City Lord Zhang, is that person really here?"

"Nine out of ten." Zhang Cheng's eyes flashed, and he said in a cold voice: "If you dare to come to the city lord's mansion to act wild, I will make him regret it."

Back at the auction venue, everyone was watching the struggle between the old men. They were both well-known in the city for not doing their jobs properly, and they raised the price again and again amidst the heartache of their respective families.

Finally, Zerg was paid 5,000 taels of silver by a balding old man. He happily went to the back room to pay the money and get the items, while the relatives around him shook their heads.

"This old guy Gu Yuan wants to do something dirty."

Seeing Gu Yuan leave his seat and walk outside, Mo Yu sighed and his face became gloomy.

"Do you want to help that person?" Youlan saw that Mo Yu looked bad and asked tentatively.

"No need." Mo Yu waved his hand: "Gu Yuan won't do anything serious for an insect, I just think it's too ridiculous."

Next, I took pictures of several items, but none of them were worth selling. Most of them were antiques and jewelry, which were taken and collected by various wealthy businessmen.

It is worth mentioning that the young man who verbally insulted Mo Yu also took action, many times, and took pictures of things that were pleasing to women.

His father pampered him too much and bought them one by one until the items he brought exceeded the budget. He begged to buy more next time, but the young master didn't buy it and started crying and being coaxed and dragged away by his father.

"Do you have a grudge against him?"

Liu Ningxuan noticed that the murderous aura on Mo Yu's body had not dissipated from the moment he bid to leave, and he looked sideways at him.

When Youlan heard this, she looked at Mo Yu. She was just an ordinary child and could not feel the murderous aura. She only knew that her benefactor was very unhappy.

"Just a self-righteous dandy." Mo Yu sneered and raised his eyebrows.

With such a tone, even a fool would know that there was a conflict between the two of them. At that moment, Yun'er and Bi'er chattered and started to make suggestions, such as beating sap, walking all the pigs, whipping the buttocks...

After all the market tricks were explained, Mo Yu and the three of them looked embarrassed. Where did these two girls learn these things? If they were really asked to implement them, even the masters would not be able to handle it.

The first day of the auction came to an end very quickly. The final item was an official position. It was the magistrate of a small border county under the jurisdiction of the eldest prince. The starting price was 10,000 taels of silver.

There is a popular saying among the people: Even if you have a lot of money, it is not as good as an official and a half-job.

An official career is the path to glory, especially now that the world is in chaos and those in high positions have no time to care about their subordinates. This is an opportunity to make a fortune.

Those who are vying to raise the price are all wealthy businessmen, with broad waists and gleaming eyes. They are not honest and upright people at first glance. If they win an official position, they will definitely plunder the people's wealth.

"Let's go, the highlight should be on the third day." Mo Yu was not interested in this kind of auction of official positions, so he stood up and took the sword box.

"Okay, let's come back tomorrow." Youlan followed and left her seat.

Liu Ningxuan glanced at the two of them lightly, feeling strange. He didn't know why, but he was awkward and irritable, so he took the lead to leave again.

Mo Yu followed at the end, and You Lan followed him step by step. His eyes flickered. When he wanted to ask some questions, Liu Ningxuan called him away.

"Oh, why do I feel so depressed?"

Mo Yu felt melancholy in his heart. You Lan was so enthusiastic towards him, and it didn't look like it was just a matter of repaying a favor.

And Liu Ningxuan, what's the matter with that bone-chilling chill on his body? Could it be the legendary jealousy? Impossible, how could such a thing happen to that ice lotus?

The issue of love between men and women was rather complicated, so Mo Yu turned to think about Zhang Cheng and Lu Pingsong.

The lord of a city, Panhuan will definitely be short of gold and silver in the past few years, so they really just want to auction something here? What could it be?

This auction lasted for three days in total. Zhang Cheng was not in charge of the city lord's palace, so he could take action by surprise and cut off his nest in one fell swoop.

Then I thought about it and it didn't work.

The assassin incident happened two days ago, and Zhang Cheng would never ignore it. It is very likely that he showed up deliberately this time, lured the snake out of the hole, laid a dragnet in the city lord's palace, and waited for the assassin to fall into a trap.

In addition, the gang of bandits outside the city are also part of the charter force. Cutting off the grass and leaving the roots can easily lead to a counterattack by the charter, so you must be cautious. If you want to fight, you will get the whole pot.

After returning to the inn, Liu Ningxuan went directly to his room and thanked his guests behind closed doors.

Youlan said goodbye and left. Before leaving, she glanced at Mo Yu shyly. She didn't know what she meant, but she only knew that she was a little happy.

At dusk, Mo Yu finally understood the meaning of You Lan's glance. At that time, he was having dinner with a few people from Kongtong Mountain, and while changing cups and cups, a soft voice sounded from outside the inn.
