On the second day of March, at midnight, there were less than five hours left before the auction started...
In order to ensure the safety of the venue, all the merchants of Ruyi Trading Co., Ltd. around the venue were on alert, and the casino was brightly lit all night long. Mu Jiao did not publicize the robbery during the day, but he could not help but worry about the crisis that still existed out of sight. Not defensive.
What has already happened will happen again in the future. Whoever created the figurines will have no successors? Wu Yi had already succeeded once, and even if they wanted to get away now, it would not be easy - if blocking the road to seize the escort was the first time they created a problem, then the tragedy of killing more than half of the Taiping Escort Bureau this time was a complete letdown. The two families have entered a state of constant struggle. Even if Wuyi really wants to divert the trouble eastward and let the Black Sea Chamber of Commerce take the blame, it would be equivalent to offending two mad dogs, He Nan and Samson, at the same time. Everyone will bite on the back of their butts.
The current chaotic situation is actually all caused by Samson. It can be said that this man who is like a flaming flame has really not made any great contributions when the Chamber of Commerce was going smoothly. He even caused troubles with some colleagues, superiors and subordinates from time to time. , the discord between locals and outsiders, this kind of blind operation is a headache for Fernand, but it is undeniable that in the desperate situation where almost all the backbones of the Chamber of Commerce have given up, this daring person is the only one He made a shocking move - he dragged both Chai Sichou and He Nan into the quagmire he was in.
Although it is unclear who will win in this situation where everyone is rolling in the mud together. In theory, everyone has a similar chance of winning, but Samson knows that if he is the only one playing in the mud, he will definitely lose, and now no matter who Even if his opponent could persist to the end, he would lose miserably, but at least he would be happy and have no regrets in his life.
Chai Sichou has a "hegemony" that he has managed for several generations, and He Nan wants to keep the Taiping Escort safe. Only he, Samson, looks glamorous on the surface, but in fact has nothing, so he will indulge himself unscrupulously. idea.
Speaking of which, although He Nan was the culprit that led to the destruction of the Chamber of Commerce, a vengeful person like Samson would certainly not forget how Chai Sichou's other identity "Tian Mu" hindered the Chamber of Commerce. It turns out that there is no difference, but the singing and singing between Shi Xiaowen and Chai Sichou still disgusted Samson enough - at least many secrets in the Chamber of Commerce were mastered by Shi Xiaowen, and with Shi Xiaowen's departure, these secrets also flowed into into the ears of Chai Sichou and He Nan.
But no matter what, since Chai Sichou has been "coerced" by Samson to form a deadly feud with the Taiping Escort Agency, he will do the next thing without Samson reminding him - but he is also worried about whether Samson will Suddenly one day he would change his mind, so he had another plan in mind.
That is to get the sword first... No matter how many there are, there will always be one that is real.
Yes, the most embarrassing and thorny problem faced by Chai Sichou is that he is completely unable to confirm whether the one he is holding is a genuine one or a fake that has been "frozen". This is also The reason why he was attracted here by the bait - it's not like he didn't release the news after thinking "This must be the old thief Yu Maosheng who lured me here". Later, the information that He Nan was involved in this matter made him feel even more This conjecture is very tenable, but just as He Nan was certain - Chai Sichou couldn't bear the price of the fake one in his hand, so he had no choice but to deal with the situation himself.
Then someone might say, since Chai Sichou is so suspicious, why don't you just mass-produce 1,800 pieces and release news every once in a while saying, "Actually, this is true" to keep him murmuring?
Didn't I say, are you fooling a fool?
You have to know that with the technical means of Ruyi Company, the gadgets mass-produced according to the appearance characteristics of "Gareth's Curse" can only be regarded as decorations at best, not weapons at all. When put into actual combat, it can be said that It breaks when touched. Chai Sichou was just not sure that the one in his hand must be genuine, but something that looked like a fake at first glance did not make him worry at all. Instead, it made him even more convinced that "the one in his hand must have magical power." Thoughts, in the end, wouldn’t it mean losing both the wife and the army?
In the final analysis, what Chai Sichou needs is not a sword that can cut iron like clay, but a symbol, an omen - a psychological comfort that having a sword with a legend attached can become a legend. He believed in the various stories about this sword, so he was so eager to have those magical things happen to him, thus doubling his confidence. On the contrary, if he is not sure that he holds the sword of kings, he will never be able to eliminate his doubts about the unfinished business.
So he was in a hurry. Only by quickly getting the "genuine product" in the hands of the Taiping Escort Bureau could the rolling stone hanging in his heart land safely.
…………
The auction items to be displayed at the auction have been delivered to the venue one after another in the past few days, and they are all stored in the warehouse on the second floor of the restaurant. Except for the surrounding merchants who are blatantly lighting up candlelight as a guard, naturally at night There are also guards to prevent theft of these extremely valuable collections.
As the saying goes, people die for money and birds die for food. Even though this is a place covered by the Taiping Escort Bureau, there are still people who are worried about Wuyi, an assassin who runs one side and has a paper strength higher than that of the so-called three major escort agencies. Forget about Tiantuan, but there are some masters in this world who don’t have diamonds but want to work on porcelain.
A local idle gangster in Qixian County has long heard about the big move of Ruyi Trading Company, so he has been staring at the trucks coming in and out of the restaurant in recent days. Until this afternoon, shopkeeper Mu personally led a team to escort the trucks. The thief then thought that the time had come and it was time to take action.
So at this juncture, this uninvited guest entered the restaurant before the undressed night visitor...
"No... what's going on? Are there people who want to cut off the beard?" Yin Huan glanced at his companion and started discussing the leader who was right in front of him. The reason why he said that the other party was here to cut off the beard was because he saw the whereabouts of the thief. Very sneaky, not like a good man - Yin Huan is really lucky. The road on Zhuque Mountain is steep and dangerous, so the ability to fly over eaves and climb over walls is a childish skill of every Fuyao sect disciple, and Yin Huan also relies on his own kick to "grasp the moon" "Xing" has been in charge of intelligence support for a long time, but he avoids going to fight head-on with the Taiping Escort Agency during the day.
This is not a bad thing, because no one expected that Yu Ruyi would actually be determined to die and use all his strength to save some losses for Taiping Escort... Three of the best warriors in Wuyi, including Xie Geyun, died. During that storm - of course, the reason why this was not a bad thing was not only that Yin Huan did not catch up with the disaster, but more importantly, it made him recognize himself.
In the past, he had thought that the Young Heroes Association was nothing more than that. Even the leader, Xiao Kelong, had taken advantage of him poisoning his fellow disciples. In this way, he was at least the first person under Ran Yuan - but then he saw Seeing Sister Kou's somewhat embarrassed look and hearing the news that Xie Geyun and others were killed in battle, he asked himself that if it were him, he would never be able to do this.
Yin Huan has been struggling in the world for half a year since he silently rebelled against his master. His experience in these six months is definitely richer than the more than ten years on Zhuque Mountain, so he has somewhat changed his state of mind. ——Of course, it's impossible to say whether he feels guilty about Ran Yuan, because Yin Huan doesn't feel any psychological burden in using dirty tricks on a guy he regards as his old enemy, but at least he does He was able to face the fact that Ran Yuan was indeed above him.
"Ha... This is interesting. It seems that besides us and the Black Sea Chamber of Commerce, there are others who are also eyeing this piece of fat." The person who came to visit the situation with Yin Huan today is also a veteran of Wuyi, Haishi Kui touched the sparse stubble on his chin. After much thought, he still didn't know what kind of immortal this man was. In the end, he could only say vaguely: "Let's explore the way for the young master. This guy is crossing the river for us. He just happens to watch quietly. It changes.”
Saying this is the same as not saying it. Anyway, the instructions given by the superiors are to "act according to the situation", and these two people do not expect that they can take Kou Xiong or Xie Jian out of the building. At most, they can only confirm their wishes. They just went back to report on the store's defense situation, so the two people simply changed their thinking - if the man could come out soon, they would directly ask him what they saw inside, and it would be great if he could bring out some items. However, Wu Yi did not hesitate to collect some "extra money"; and if that person failed to come out, it meant that the auction house was heavily guarded, and the gentleman on Liang Shang had been captured on the spot, and the two of them no longer had to risk their lives.
But what happened next was completely beyond their expectations - even the two people who witnessed it felt that it all happened too smoothly.
Not only did this little thief come out of the building safe and sound, he even brought something out without leaving the house.
It was a long and narrow cloth bundle, containing a heavy lead box, and the thing contained in the lead box... was a sword.
Some people died, but not completely...
