In addition to hosting auctions, the third floor of Tianbo Chamber of Commerce is mostly rented out on weekdays, providing venues and services.
Liang Qu and others verified their identities at the entrance, and under the guidance of the waiter, took their seats according to the pre-arranged seating order.
Today the entire third floor is completely different from what we saw before.
The long red lacquer tables are arranged on both sides, as neatly as the ink lines drawn by a carpenter, with no edges visible at a glance.
Several girls surrounded by screens played the guqin, and a faint scent of incense spread in the air.
The long tables in front were spread out side by side, and two feet of silk were spread out. Several painters studied ink and washed their brushes, preparing to paint and record the grand scene.
The ice platform is surrounded in the distance, and the air is not stuffy, but there is still an ice mirror placed next to each person, which looks like a palace building. Pale white cold smoke floats along the four corners of the eaves and hangs downward.
Magistrate Jian's celebratory wine was sold to the entire third floor. He is rich and worthy of being the rich man who spent hundreds of thousands of taels of silver on longevity-extending plants.
etc.
Liang Qu was sitting behind the table, peeling green oranges in the fruit plate, and suddenly remembered something.
If Jian Zhongyi's grandmaster ancestor really did that thing of removing ashes, would Jian Zhongyi buy life-extending materials for his ancestor?
Liang Qu stuffed orange slices into his mouth and couldn't come up with an answer.
Maybe it's really just rumors.
No matter whose belly the treasure gets into, it won't be his turn anyway.
As time passed, guests entered the venue one after another until the first great martial artist Sui Hongyan appeared, and Jian Zhongyi showed up to receive them.
After Sui Hongyan, Yang Dongxiong, Xu Yuelong, Wei Lin and other important figures from Hebosuo and the Demon Hunting Department appeared one after another.
Heroes are ranked.
A group of tiger-hunting martial arts masters, with the strongest strength and status among them all, were sitting in the center circle at the front.
Including Jian Zhongyi, there are nine people in total.
Further outside, a short screen no more than calf-high is covered with marble to divide the space.
That is the position of the next-level Ran Zhongshi, Xiang Fangsu and others.
A person with high strength and profound background.
There are about seventy numbers.
On the third floor, the screen is half a person tall, painted with vermilion paint, and carved with various cranes, birds and beasts.
Guests need to sit upright to see beyond the screen and see the first and second floors of the banquet.
There were more than a hundred people sitting in the seats belonging to Wei Shao, Liang Qu and others.
They are people who have strength but lack of background, or people who lack strength but have background.
Wei Shao's background is worse, and Liang Qu's strength is worse.
As for the fourth floor, it is completely separated by a two-meter-high screen, and the conditions on the three floors inside are completely invisible.
The people sitting there were all ordinary martial arts masters with no background in Hebo.
There was no meritorious service among them, and even the temporary notices received on the same day were in the role of "accompanying guests".
As for the fifth level, there is no fifth level, and ordinary sergeants who are not as strong as a martial artist do not receive invitations at all.
There are four floors in total, separated by screens of three heights.
The position is clearly divided into different levels, with a depth of more than 200 meters.
An ordinary person wouldn't be able to see what's going on inside.
Liang Qu looked sideways at Wei Shao across from him, feeling unhappy.
If he were a Langyan martial artist, he would definitely sit in the second circle and not be in the same category as this person.
Wei Shao noticed Liang Qu's gaze and was disgusted by the sight, and snorted coldly.
When he saw Liang Qu, he thought of the more than three thousand taels of silver he had lost, and that he had been soaking in the swamp for more than ten days, and his hands cramped.
If Liang Qu hadn't made a fortune and was Yang Dongxiong's direct disciple, he would have been on the fourth floor at this moment, hanging out with those rough guys!
Central location.
Jian Zhongyi stood up and bowed.
"It's disrespectful to pretend to be a fake hotel, I hope you will be considerate!"
"Lord Jane, you're welcome."
"It's really expensive, Master Jane."
"It's not my expense. Most of today's expenses were provided by Mr. Zhu, the manager of Tianbo."
"Oh, that's really the case?"
"Mr. Zhu..."
They are all polite words.
Liang Qu was dozens of meters away, and he could hear his ears ringing and his stomach growling.
It was sunset when we arrived, and now it's dark, but the banquet hasn't started yet.
After talking for about a quarter of an hour, Jian Zhongyi finally toasted with everyone.
"In the vast world, who has no parents? I support and support them, fearing that they will not live long."
Who has no brothers? Like feet and hands. Who doesn’t have a couple? Like a guest or a friend.
…
The sky and the earth are in sorrow, the grass and trees are miserable. If the hanging sacrifice does not come, the soul has no one to rely on.
The first cup is a tribute to the returning warrior! "
Jian Zhongyi poured down a glass of wine.
The crowd followed closely behind.
Liang Qu learned from others.
Jian Zhongyi spoke for a while and raised his glass.
"Second cup, honor the Emperor of Shun Yuan Dabao, Shen Wen Shen Wu Fa Tian Zheng Tao!"
Everyone drinks.
Liang Qu drinks wine.
“Third cup, here’s to all the warriors who defend our country!”
After three glasses of wine, let’s start the banquet!
Drinking and drinking mingled with each other, and all the guests enjoyed themselves.
There was a lot of fun in the venue, after all, Jian Zhongyi was a reward in name, and it was a free meal.
Liang Qu also wanted to talk to people, but he looked around and found that there was no one he knew around.
Xiang Fangsu, Ran Zhongshi and others are all in the second circle.
The purpose of arranging seats is to separate people into groups, so they can't run around. It's said that they are uneducated, so Liang Qu has no choice but to bury his head in eating and drinking.
It took more than an hour to eat one meal, and the second half of the meal was completely full and had nothing to do.
We stayed up until the end of the Xu period and the beginning of the Hai period. From nine to ten o'clock in the evening, the banquet was over.
Manager Zhu arranged the manpower to send people home.
Liang Qu was not in a hurry to go back and bid farewell to his master Yang Dongxiong. He first went to the second floor for a stroll, and with the help of the "shopping guide" waiter on the side, he purchased underwater treasure plants.
It is impossible to find Bingdilian and the two-flowered level. You can only find some ordinary treasure plants. The quality is not high, but the quantity is better.
Liang Qu didn't mind it. He estimated the amount of water essence and bought a total of more than 800 taels of silver treasure plants.
Yixing Town.
Chishan returns to the stable.
Liang Qu followed the underground river to Jianghuai Daze and swallowed Baozhi.
After digesting them all, a total of 800 water essences were added. In total, a little water essence would cost more than one or two yuan.
Aquatic treasure plants are difficult to obtain and usually come at a premium.
The Cockscomb Fruit in Hebo is a special supply. You can't find such high-quality and cheap treasures outside.
A little over eight hundred taels is really a big loss.
But enough!
Only eat three cockscomb fruits a day because the effect will be weakened later and the energy and blood provided are limited, but the water essence obtained from them will not be less!
Before going into seclusion, Liang Qu exchanged dozens of cockscomb berries with small merit in the Hebo Station. He originally planned to eat three of them every day.
Now.
Erlang's favor is just around the corner!
If you don’t care, use krypton!
[Water Essence +7]
[Water Essence +8]
【Mizusawa Essence +7.6】
Liang Qu took one bite at a time.
In the blink of an eye, more than thirty cockscomb fruits were eaten, and more than two hundred water essences were regenerated.
Ten thousand essences, completely replenished!
Communicate with Zeding.
The sound of tides in the cauldron continued, and the light red aura surged above the water essence.
[Get a ray of red energy, and if it merges with the essence of ten thousand waters, a spiritual fish will be born, which can be sublimated and admired. 】
Everything is ready, let’s go together!
The Zeding bloomed with brilliance, and the ethereal red energy instantly merged into the rising water essence, rolling up a vortex. The water level of the water essence dropped rapidly, and the speed was shocking.
Wait for the light to dissipate.
A small red-eyed fish with a dark blue body and no bigger than a thumb appeared in the Zeding.
In an instant, only a thin layer of water essence was left, so that the small fish could not swim at all and was flapping in it.
Is this the spirit fish?
Liang Qu ignored his heartache and felt a mysterious feeling in the sea of consciousness, as if the water essence had undergone more complex changes after being integrated into the red energy.
[If you get a spiritual fish, it can be sublimated and the spirit will favor you]
[Zeling Favors: The First Level of Martial Arts and Spirituality (Emperor of Sichuan); Yinglong Pattern: 1st Level; Tianwu: 1st Level]
Liang Qu glanced over without hesitation.
Emperor of Sichuan!
