The full moon hung high in the sky, and the huge courtyard was bustling with people, even more lively than during the day.
I saw batches of monks emerging from the giant formation gate in the middle. They all came from the special passage and were picked up by the servants as soon as they came over.
Almost all the people here know each other, and whenever two teams meet, they will call each other's names and enter the venue together, so affectionate. Oh, as to whether the affection is sincere or not, that remains to be discussed.
As a result, the courtyard was bustling with people seeing off and winning, with an endless stream.
Such a lively scene is probably incomparable even to Lianwu City during the day.
At least it is impossible to see such a large number of young men from aristocratic families gathered in the city during the day. The Wang family, Fang family, Qin family from the west gates of the city, those on the famous sword list, and various large, medium and small families gathered here.
It is no exaggeration to say that if anyone at this venue was accidentally killed, half of the entire Lianwu City would collapse.
Therefore, you must be extra careful tonight.
————————————————
Ahu is the gatekeeper of the venue. For this job, a group of them beat him to pieces.
In the end, Ah Hu won with a slight advantage, although the price was that he is still bruised and bruised and hurts all over.
In order to act decently as a gatekeeper, he even used up the ointment he had treasured for a long time, and reluctantly made himself look decent before entering, so as not to offend the nobleman.
Coming to this auction venue... it was indeed a worthwhile trip. There was a steady stream of rewards coming in, small gifts were received softly, and gentlemen, big and small, who would not even glance at them sideways on weekdays, had to greet them with smiles.
When he thought about the huge reward that would be settled later, Ahu's eyes turned red and his mouth almost burst into laughter.
This is not in vain for the good opportunity he fought hard to get through serious injuries. He, Wang Ahu, also has this day. Just wait, those guys who look down on others will soon show them what a huge difference is.
Secretly calculating the generous salary that was going to fall into his hands, Ahu was extremely beautiful.
"It's so lively. There are a few giant Buddhas here tonight that are rarely seen on weekdays. My little sweetheart." Another guard standing next door had a fuzzy face, looking like a fan.
provoke! It was so disgusting, Ahu moved aside calmly. If possible, he didn't want to stand with this strange-looking colleague at this moment. He always felt uncomfortable.
The guy next door is called A Ming, and I heard he is a powerful outsider. It's just that his qualifications are not good and his brain is not very good. He has been given up long ago and has been kept in the pasture.
It's just that no matter how much I don't like it, it's still my own bloodline. That powerful person has some abilities and has left a lot of resources to this incompetent child. Although these are resources that are not available on the market, the best thing is that they can be obtained securely.
How to say it? Anyway, they are the children of the original wife's side wife who will never look down on them. A little fool like A Ming can live a more peaceful life. He is also content with poverty and lives his own life.
This gatekeeper's job was also arranged for him by his powerful father, but it was not as simple as letting him watch the gate.
The goal was to buy him something nice, but to avoid the eyes and ears at home, the excuse that Amin only worked at the auction was probably a good excuse.
So A Ming is pretending to be a doorman and a real guest. Someone will take him to the box inside in a short while. And he has to continue to guard the gate, and he has to help A Ming cover it.
well--
It’s true that people with the same fate have different fates. Having a good dad is just different.
Looking at the dumbfounded back of the other person's head, Ahu felt a little frustrated.
However, before the other party turned his head after looking far away, Ahu had already adjusted his mood and returned to his previous lazy expression.
"By the way, Ahu, do you feel that more and more people are coming? It turns out that there are so many powerful people in Lianwu City, and these many people feel a little numb."
Ahu almost couldn't help but roll his eyes. How on earth did this country bumpkin, this little fool, survive until now without being destroyed by those in Dang Neng’s family?
What does it mean that there are so many powerful people? There have always been so many of them. There may not be those who can trample half of the sky with one stamp of their feet, but there are those who can trample them to death with one stamp... They are everywhere.
Does this idiot know how to speak? The little fairy over there glared in this direction, probably feeling underestimated after hearing his words.
Ahu sighed here.
They are all big shots, but he is the only one who is truly untouchable.
He had been lucky enough to participate in this auction before. Just because he was a servant, he would have bumped into the nobles. After carrying a few rounds of dishes, he was strictly prohibited from staying in the servants' area. He didn't see many things clearly.
However, by taking the opportunity of serving the plate, he had seen the grand scene, with bright lights, people drinking wine, beauties and beautiful people in all kinds of clothes... Separating them, they were people from another world.
At a young age, he understood for the first time that the difference between him and those people was not only spiritual stones, but also another thing that he would never have.
However, Amin was right about one thing. How do you feel... There are a lot of people coming to the venue this time. Um...that's too many.
Anyway, it was at least a few times better than what he knew before. Is there any rare treasure in this class? Ahu was a little confused.
"I don't know what kind of treasures will be auctioned this time. I'm afraid they are all here for that thing."
"No, they should all be here to buy sword slaves." A Ming was not interested. God knows he doesn't want that kind of thing at all. He must not buy this, he might as well give him a bunch of spiritual stones.
"Ah?" Ahu glanced at Amin in surprise. Sword slave, isn't this thing available every year? It's not a rare thing, how could it attract so many people. Could it be a very rare good thing?
This is the inner courtyard of Wuwuhang, which is heavily guarded and investigated. Naturally, there is no one who shouldn't be there, so there is no harm in discussing it directly. Moreover, it is no secret that the sword slave is doing whatever he wants.
They can say it themselves and no one will care.
"Yes, they are all here to buy sword slaves. They probably received the news and thought that there might be no way out in the future, so they took advantage of the last wave of remnants." A Ming thought of the conversation between his father and his mother that day. , his face looked a little strange.
Oh, the old man most likely wanted to buy him a sword slave, otherwise he wouldn't have mentioned this to my mother-in-law.
…
"Don't you know?" A Ming smacked his mouth in confusion.
Do not know what is this? What the hell could he know? Ahu's face was expressionless, and his heart was full of curses. But in order to find out the news, he could only endure this unconscious "dazzle" from the little fool.
"You don't know that Wang Zi Xu and his gang were all arrested, and the base camp on Yuyue Island was also taken over. I heard that the control there was very strict. In a short period of time, many people couldn't get that thing. ”
"The ones in Siwuhang now should be the last ones for a while."
