Although Lin Yan was a little unhappy, after thinking about it, he pinched his nose and admitted it! This person is just greedy for money. As long as he can get useful information, just give him a few coins!
For twenty taels of silver, Lin Yan got a ticket to the Wanbao Tower auction from Bai Zhishou.
According to him, this auction has strict restrictions on the identity and number of attendees, but he was able to get a lot of tickets for nothing. It seems that he is someone with a way.
In addition, Lin Yan also got some information he wanted, and gained a deeper understanding of this seemingly calm but actually strange wasteland.
The three major forces here have their own strengths. For example, the Death Song Cult has the largest number of followers here, the Blood Sect is the weirdest and coldest, and Wanbao Tower is... the best at doing business!
This is not a joke. Originally, there was no place like this in chaos.
The term "fair trade", whether it is selling stolen goods or Taobao, requires not only eyesight, but also strength!
Because in the process of transaction, there may be someone being bullied by the other party at any time.
The possibility of "killing people and stealing goods". If you don't have strong strength by your side, you may just be a lamb to be slaughtered in the eyes of the other party.
The more expensive things you bring, the sooner you may die! So over a longer period of time,
The four words "fair trade" have become the most desired thing in this chaotic land. Unfortunately, no force or individual has been able to achieve this, until... the emergence of Wanbao Tower!
It emerged suddenly and quickly became the maker of rules. It not only sells various high-quality treasures itself, but also provides guarantee services to both parties to the transaction.
As long as a certain percentage of the deposit is paid, Wanbaolou will ensure that the transaction is conducted fairly. Someone once tried to challenge its rules. A master of the acquired perfection realm killed the seller under the guarantee of Wanbao Tower, robbed the treasure and left.
It happened for several days and there was no news at all. Just after everyone thought that Wanbaolou had admitted defeat, the master suddenly appeared at a gathering point in the wasteland. However, at this time, he had been cut into a human stick and hung bloody on the dry ground. On the tree.
The screams lasted for several days and nights, before the master finally died painfully under all kinds of torture.
It is said that he had a relieved smile on his face before he died, as if being alive was the most terrifying thing! From then on, no one dared to blatantly break the rules of Wanbao Tower in the wasteland, and it itself became the center of the transaction.
"Guardian Saint" is much more reliable than swearing and praying to gods and Buddhas! It's just, this
The "Guardian Saint" charges money! And, it’s a little expensive, well, just a little! Lin Yan took the information and tickets and headed towards the auction house under Bai Fu's guidance.
Not long after he left, Bai Fu weighed the money in his hand and said to himself:
"Another chick!" After saying that, he continued to wander, looking for his next one.
"customer"! ...The location of the auction house is not difficult to find, because there are other people heading in this direction, and their purpose should be the same.
This time the scale is not small. It is not in a gathering place, but in an important city in the wasteland - the Black City!
It is not easy to have a city in such a chaotic place, and it is also a well-ordered city. It is no exaggeration to say that the security here is better than that of cities governed by some big countries!
The reason why this special place exists is that the three major forces played an important role. All unstable factors were forcibly suppressed by them with iron-blooded means. In the end, no one dared to violate the rules they set!
In other words, today’s peace and tranquility were created by the sacrifice of human lives! You can do anything in the wilderness. Burning, killing, looting, etc. are commonplace. After all, the people who come here are not good people.
However, only in the Black City do you have to behave like a person.
Like a "good baby", otherwise, someone will forcefully teach you to obey the rules! After entering the black city, Lin Yan instantly felt a bit unreal and said in his heart:
"Is this still the chaotic wasteland that was rumored? This scene is too unreal!" The city was peaceful. When Lin Yan saw a strong, bald man with a tattoo of a dragon on his shoulders, Even when I bump into a little bean sprout, I can still say it with a smile.
When he said "I'm sorry", he felt how absurd this scene was! Not to mention in the wilderness, even in ordinary areas, strength is respected.
When the weak face the strong, they will only be trampled on. It seems that such a situation is unimaginable! From Lin Yan's understanding, the wasteland should be the kind of place where people would draw swords on each other if they disagreed, and it was lawless and only based on strength.
However, seeing it with his own eyes overturned his understanding. But this is only reasonable, so-called
"Everything must be reversed when it reaches its extreme"! No matter how chaotic the place is, there is still an area where one must abide by the rules.
If these people had left it to their own will, the wasteland would have been littered with corpses and rivers of blood. All life would have been destroyed in this extreme violence and madness, and would no longer exist!
The reason why there is still a wasteland in the world is not only the deterrence of the three major forces, but also due to the self-harmony of this place.
Anyway, it was still early before the auction started, so Lin Yan walked around the city. The main purpose was to observe the terrain and the route out of the city.
According to his speculation, Kong Zhi and Kong Wen will catch up soon, and with Wu Cai's hatred for him, he will not let him go easily!
There are so many enemies, but none of them are easy to deal with! although
"A strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake", but it is still unclear whether the three major forces can make the Buddha Sect and Xuantian Sect abide by the rules in this dark city!
Lin Yan is not a passive person. He is prepared in advance. If something goes wrong, he can withdraw at any time.
As he wandered around casually, he also discovered that the peace and tranquility in this city was not always the same. In some dark alleys, there are faint sounds of fighting and the smell of blood. You can know what is happening without entering.
It seems that everything is relative. Where there is light, there is darkness. This is common sense in the world.
After spending some time, Lin Yan had a general outline of the city's layout, so that he could respond quickly even if he encountered any emergencies.
Just as the auction was about to start, Lin Yan rushed towards the location of Wanbao Tower. You don’t need anyone else to guide you, because the store is the largest, the most luxurious building, and the most prestigious in the entire city!
Of course, before entering, Lin Yan still put on a black cloak with a big hood as usual.
What should I say? You can hide your identity! Although the Wanbao Tower is intimidating, there is no guarantee that anyone will take risks for the sake of profit. Multiple protections are always right.
After Lin Yan expressed his intention to come, he was led by the waiter to the back hall, where specialized personnel would evaluate the authenticity and value of the items to decide whether to cooperate.
There is still a market for these exercises and martial arts that Lin Yan has no use for, especially Bu Le's exercises, which have reached the imperial level!
Although it is a relatively low-level one in this level, it is still quite valuable! It would have been a good idea to keep it, but in Lin Yan's opinion, the exercises based on the Huanxi Sect's philosophy were evil. He couldn't practice it himself, and he didn't want to let the people around him take the evil path. It would be better to take action here instead. Something of value can also make Huanxi Sect disgusted by the way.
The rule of Wanbao Tower is that things don’t matter where they come from, as long as they are true! This also saved Lin Yan a lot of trouble. After all, it was a robbery and it was difficult to explain.
Everything went smoothly, but after being told that there would be a 5% handling fee after the transaction was completed, Lin Yan's mood became unhappy.
Black, so dark! Sure enough it is
"No business without treachery"! And there was another thing that made him even more speechless. The admission ticket he bought from Bai Lian was not fake, but it only cost two taels of silver in Wanbao Tower.
ten times! It’s doubled ten times! Lin Yan instantly felt that he had been cheated, and he was cheated quite miserably! Also, the people at Wanbao Tower told him that tickets were not required to sell things, which made Lin Yan really want to cry.
The money on love is wasted! He made up his mind in his mind that next time he saw that guy with the sinister features, he would definitely let him
The "little white mouse" knows why the flowers are so red! However, Lin Yan didn't have time to pay attention to him at the moment, so he could only put the matter down for the time being and focus on the auction in front of him.
His position was arranged in the middle and front area. It seems that a big reason is that Lin Yan wants to auction the imperial-level technique, which is a good thing that makes warriors jealous.
The positions at the front naturally belong to the three major forces here. Except for the Wanbao Tower as the host, which is empty, the other two positions are occupied by representatives sent by the Blood Sect and the Death Song Sect. figure.
The blood sect is an old man with gray beard and hair and a sinister complexion. He is dressed in blood-colored robes, and just sitting there exudes a strong bloody aura, which makes people with poor psychological quality tremble!
The Death Song Cult came with a priest wearing a black robe. He was wearing the name
The "black robe of a seminarian" is embroidered with gold thread and is said to be the formal attire for serving the gods. And the gods they believe in are also different from ordinary people. Most people believe in gods and Buddhas just for secular wishes such as wealth and longevity. However, the Death Song Cult does not worship gods and Buddhas, but only believes in... …grim Reaper!
This abnormal way of thinking and the complicated and strange rituals of the cult made them once considered an evil cult, and even the notorious villains stayed away from them.
But in this wasteland, where death is prevalent, their teachings found fertile soil, grew wantonly, spread wildly, and gained an extremely large number of believers in a short period of time.
In addition to these two forces, many people also came, some of whom were in the wasteland themselves, and some who came from the outside world, all seemingly just for this auction.
As the auctioneer walked onto the stage in a hurry, the scene was obviously agitated, and it was obvious that he was looking forward to this auction.
This auctioneer was obviously a veteran, and he heated up the atmosphere in the scene with just a few words. Feeling that it was almost done, he loudly said to the audience:
"Everyone, I announce that this Wanbaolou auction has officially begun!"
