Don’t worry, my injury is fine. Look, everything is fine.”
Luo Bao's uncle let go of the wooden crutch as he spoke, but his body was really not up to par. As soon as the crutch left his hand, his legs staggered. Fortunately, he could still maintain his balance and stand still. No falls.
"Look, you're lying, you're just not healed yet."
Children of poor people become masters early, and poor families become wise early. Little Carrot knew that his uncle was forcing himself to show off.
"Are you afraid that Xiaoluobao will suffer too much or be offended if he does this job? Don't worry, we guarantee that no one will bully him."
The uncle and nephew were arguing, and Gao Han couldn't stand it anymore. They had to go to the auction together, and their time was very limited.
"this……"
When Xiaoluobo's uncle saw that his thoughts were being seen through, he didn't know what to say.
The job of being a black market guide is easy or not easy. I often endure beatings and scoldings from my employers and being bullied by my peers. This is a common occurrence. An adult can accept being scolded or beaten twice. , but Little Carrot is only ten years old, and it is acceptable to be scolded. If a child is hit twice, how can a child withstand the beating and scolding of an adult based on his physical fitness? After a long time, it will do a lot of harm to a child without any benefit. , it is precisely because of worries about this problem that Xiaoluobo's uncle plans to drag his recovering body to complete the next work.
"If it's because of this, you can rest assured that we won't embarrass a child. If it's because of Luo Luo's ability, you can rest assured that this kid is leading the way well and has not gone the wrong way."
After being reminded by Gao Han, Ma Tao also understood Xiaoluobo's uncle's concerns.
"Uncle, just let me go, I promise there won't be any problems."
When Luobo heard that Ma Tao and the others recognized him, he was extremely happy. He quickly ran over to pick up the broken wooden walking stick that his uncle had thrown on the ground and handed it to his uncle again.
Xiaoluobo's uncle looked at him, then at Ma Tao and the others, knowing that these were rare good people. He thought about his legs and feet that were still recovering, sighed, and nodded.
Little Carrot was extremely happy. His uncle's agreement was the greatest recognition for him. He immediately grabbed his uncle's hand and circled his uncle two or three times. It seemed that this was the only way to express his mood at this moment.
They had been to the auction house before and had a rough idea of the route, but it was absolutely impossible to be familiar with it. Otherwise, why would a guide be needed in such a large Shura Palace black market?
I dug out the broken wooden signs that I bought before, and they were released. These things will be taken back when I leave.
Everyone entered the auction house, but low-class locals like Xiaoluobo were allowed to enter, mainly for the convenience of having someone to wait on them during the auction. There were no service staff in the auction house, so those who held up signs and shouted things had to be asked. Someone does it.
The auction house is like a large movie theater. The small wooden sign in the hand corresponds to the seat number. Because Ma Tao and the five of them have seats next to each other, they are exactly in the same row. The seats are made of stone and are fixed. They are very heavy. It is impossible to move at all, and it is covered with blankets so that the people sitting on it will not feel the cold buttocks. It is quite thoughtful, otherwise the wealthy investors who came to the auction would sit on cold stone chairs. Isn't it the same as punishment? That's not bad. If that were the case, business would not be possible at all.
There is a distance of one meter between each seat. This distance can ensure that whispers will not be heard by others and can also ensure a certain degree of safety.
Because auctions here are often held, there are only two to three hundred people attending each auction. When they came in, it was still fifteen minutes before the auction officially started. Some of the people who were already seated were chatting. , some are whispering, others are closing their eyes and concentrating, and if the conditions are good, the businessman boss will take a few puffs of cigarettes, enjoying the pleasure of puffing out the smoke alone, and some are flirting with the female companion in their arms, The whole auction house was full of people and noisy.
On the left side of Ma Tao are his sister and Gao Han, and on the right side are Xiao Jinzi and An Ruo. As for Little Carrot, he can only stand next to Ma Tao, but this little guy must be entering a place like an auction for the first time. Take a look around. Looking at Xi, I feel more excited than Ma Tao and the others.
"Brother Tao, where did you go somewhere fun while we were drinking?"
While waiting, Xiao Jinzi stretched out his head and asked Ma Tao with a smile.
"I'm going to the arena"
For a moment, Ma Tao thought of Su Lanyu again. Was Mr. Yan's woman Su Lanyu?
"The Arena? Did you go to see the duel? How was it? Is it fun?"
As soon as he heard that Ma Tao went to the arena, Xiao Jinzi was immediately curious, which made him feel a little regretful that he didn't go.
"It's all blood and killing. What's so fun about it, but..."
Ma Tao hesitated to speak.
"But what?"
Xiao Jinzi asked confusedly when he saw Ma Tao's expression was different and seemed to be very entangled.
"I seem to have seen Lan Xi's sister."
Ma Tao was silent for a while and finally said it. After the words came out, the four people looked at Ma Tao together.
"Su Lanyu?"
Gao Han frowned her curved eyebrows.
"how do you know?"
The thing about Su Lanyu happened in front of Xiao Jinzi. It was Ma Tao's earliest memory. Because it had been so long, he had not mentioned anything about Su Lanyu to anyone, and even Xiao Jinzi knew nothing about it. , very curious how Gao Han knew.
"Lan Xi mentioned to me that they are still twins."
Gao Han replied with a faint breath.
"Have you met her?"
Gao Han asked again.
"No"
Ma Tao shook his head, looked at the people in front of him, lowered his voice, and said, "I saw her, he didn't see me, and..."
Speaking of this, Ma Tao hesitated again because he was not sure yet.
"What else is there? You should tell me quickly."
Gao Han asked.
After observing the surroundings again, I saw that no one had noticed it. Then I pointed at the watches on their hands. Several people immediately understood and quickly turned on the watches.
For the sake of safety, Ma Tao did not choose to mention Mr. Yan in such a place. Please note that walls have ears, and there are still so many ears listening, even if their voices are very small, in case someone with unique or particularly good hearing hears it It was still possible, so Ma Tao chose to type on his watch to tell them what happened.
Ma Tao (remember Mr. Yan who seriously injured Gao Han at the gate of Shura Hall)
Xiao Jinzi (what does that sinister face have to do with him?)
Gao Han (Did Su Lanyu be captured by him or was he one of his men?)
Gao Han's idea is more reasonable and very close to reality.
Ma Tao (Would you believe it if I said that Su Lanyu is very likely to be the rumored woman who fascinated Yan?)
As soon as Ma Tao's words were displayed on everyone's watch screen, everyone subconsciously raised their heads to look at Ma Tao.
Indeed, they had all met Su Lanxi. With Su Lanxi's appearance, it was definitely possible. Everyone was silent.
"What do you want to do if you find her?"
After a long while, Gao Han replied. This time she did not use her watch but looked at Ma Tao and asked directly. All the content involving the names was already known and confidentiality had been achieved.
"I have no idea……"
Ma Tao shook his head.
At this time, he was also very confused. He had been thinking about finding Su Lanyu before and never thought about what to do after meeting. He indirectly killed his sister. How could he just run over and tell the other party that I killed your sister? According to Su Lanyu's character He was afraid that he would not immediately use her sword to split him in half. Could it be that he found her just to let her split him with the sword? But Su Lanyu would know about this sooner or later. When he thought about this problem, Ma Tao was really in a mess and didn't know what to do.
Gao Han saw him scratching his head and knew that he was also worried, so he didn't say anything more.
Preparations for the auction had just started in front of me. A man in a white shirt walked up to the stage with a small notebook and used a small wooden hammer in his other hand to knock the copy on the auction stage to signify that the auction had officially begun.
The entire auction immediately fell silent, everyone was waiting for Bai Cunshan's opening remarks.
"Welcome friends from far and wide to visit Shura Hall. Here, you will experience the most enthusiastic service..."
Sure enough, every black market auction cannot change this tone. It seems that no matter how generous and great they are, they don't even think about how many of the things they auction are sold without conscience.
Ma Tao glanced at Xiaoluobo who was hopping behind him and An Ruo who was also curious.
Ma Tao, Xiao Jinzi and Gao Han have all experienced various auctions. Only An Ruo here is the first time to come to such a place. As for Xiaoluobo, if it weren’t for the erroneous guide , he may have to wait until he is an adult before he has the opportunity to come here. It is normal for the two of them to be curious.
"Wait a minute, the good stuff for the finale is all behind you."
Gao Han glanced at the white shirt talking nonsense in front of him and closed his eyes, too lazy to look at it again.
This is indeed the case in auctions. The best things are often reserved for the last. Merchants use this method to whet people's appetites. Of course, sometimes if there are enough good things, they will be sold at the beginning of the auction. Will be taken out to stimulate consumption, but generally very few. I believe that nearly 95% of the people in the entire auction house stay here to see what good things will appear in the end. Ma Tao also knows this , although I know there is no good thing, but I still have to rely on time.
Gao Han was concentrating with his eyes closed, while Xiao Jinzi was explaining some details related to the auction to An Ruo. He heard the girl nodding her head repeatedly. Her sister didn't care about this at all, but because of her system's interpersonal relationship settings, she was still decent. While everyone was listening, only Little Carrot was watching seriously with relish. A ten-year-old child is at the age when he is curious about everything, and new people or things are very attractive to him.
The white shirt babbled to himself for nearly five minutes before revealing the first auction item tonight, a diamond of nearly 50 carats. From a distance, it was indeed big enough and dazzling enough.
Ma Tao secretly shook his head. If this thing were placed in his original world, it would definitely make all the women in the audience scream. But here, I am afraid that there is no real pistol, unless it is the kind of owner who is really wealthy. Only then will I be free to buy this thing.
