"Stone gambling?" When Shen Longxuan heard this familiar yet foreign word, he couldn"t help but laugh. He didn"t know if he could return to that world."Alright, then let"s go and gamble!"
Old Housekeeper brought Shen Longxuan to an auction house called Sheng Tian. It was a dazzling building, its size already surpa.s.sing Luoying City"s.
The interior was also divided into several auctions, and according to the various types of weapons, pills, spirit rooms, and other miscellaneous items, it could satisfy anyone"s taste.
He divided each item into low, medium, and high levels. As he divided the items more meticulously, he also stimulated the desire to purchase from the martial cultivator s. Every ticket here was priced at an astronomical price.
Amongst the many varieties, there was a single item for gambling stones, and Star-Moon Stone belonged to the highest level of this category, so they had to undergo strict appraisal.
By the time Shen Longxuan and Yue Shan reached the City Auction House, there were less than two hours left before the auction.
"Ticket?" Just as he reached the door, he was stopped by a ticket collector.
Shen Longxuan and Yue Yang were startled, the Old Housekeeper stepped forward, took out a purple badge and said: "We are here to sell, we don"t need a ticket, right?"
"You have to have a ticket to buy and sell, otherwise you"re not allowed to enter!" The person"s face was full of impatience as he said, "Why are you swinging around with a broken sign? If you run away without a ticket, what about the people behind you? "
Shen Longxuan and Yue Shan were immediately pushed to the side, the purple order badge in Old Housekeeper"s hands was completely disregarded.
"These two people are really interesting. Wanting to enter the auction house without buying a ticket, do you think this is a market? Any kind of cat or dog can enter! "
"That"s right, I think there are two poor b.a.s.t.a.r.ds here to try their luck. Come, take out your treasures. If they are valuable, I will directly buy them!"
"Hmph. What are you looking at? You can"t even afford to buy a ticket. How could you possibly have any treasures on your hands? At most, it would only be a few rotten stones."
The people at the back of the line mocked each other. Before Shen Longxuan could retort, Old Housekeeper said, "Master, I know the steward here, don"t worry, we will enter without a ticket!"
Shen Longxuan swallowed the words that were about to leave his mouth, only to see the old man close his eyes for a moment, and then open them. Shen Longxuan stared at Old Housekeeper in shock.
This Old Housekeeper was actually a Martial Grandmaster Stage Ranker, Shen Longxuan was both shocked and happy.
"You"re just putting on an act. Let me see who you can find. Come, come, come. The two of you, stand to the side. Stop blocking our path!" The people checking the tickets shouted.
"Old Man, we were all waiting to see who you know. Why haven"t you come out yet?"
"Yeah, I want to get to know him too, haha …"
"You don"t even know a ticket collector, yet you claim to know the manager? What a joke!"
Shen Longxuan curled his lips and was worried for them. Offending a strong Martial Grandmaster Stage was not a good thing.
Sure enough, after a short while, an old man walked out from the auction hall with a glowing face and approached with large strides, "Old Brother Huo, why didn"t you say anything earlier so I could go and pick you up!"
Everyone looked up and gasped, "That is Manager Qin Honghai from the Stone gambling auction!"
"Heavens, that Old Man really knows the steward here. Steward Qin doesn"t care at all when he"s here!"
"Someone is in trouble this time!"
At this time, the Old Housekeeper snorted coldly, threw the purple badge in his hand over to Qin Honghai, and said: "Hmph, I"ll return it to you. What purple jade token, no one recognizes it at all, and yet you take it out to be laughed at."
At this moment, the crowd burst into an uproar.
"What?" That is a purple jade token? "
"Oh my G.o.d, that plate is something that can be sold unhindered in the whole Shengtian Auction House. The entire Auction House only has five pieces of it. I never thought that this old man would have one. What on earth is his status?"
Some of the people who had reacted quickly quietly left. They were the people who had mocked Old Housekeeper just now, but the people who checked the tickets could not leave. At this moment, it was impossible for him to stand, nor could he kneel …
"Old Brother Huo, don"t be so angry. If worse comes to worse, I"ll just take out the Jade Flower Brew that I"ve collected for a hundred years and apologize to you!" Chief Steward Qin gave the purple jade token back to the Old Housekeeper.
When the person checking the tickets heard this, he trembled in fear. He knew that Steward Qin"s Jade Flower Wine was something that even a 3-star Star Star Lord would not give him face.
But now, he had to offer it up to the Old Man he had humiliated earlier. He felt that his head was about to explode, and when he looked at Shen Longxuan again, he was even more afraid.
He could clearly hear that the old man called Shen Longxuan Master, what kind of ident.i.ty did he have? At this moment, he even had the heart to die, yet he actually offended two people like these.
Seeing that the Old Housekeeper was silent, Chief Steward Qin smiled and said: "Brother Huo, let"s chat inside. Don"t scare them in front of these juniors."
"Alright, for the sake of the Jade Flower Wine, I will not bother with it this time. But this time, I came here to accompany Master in gambling. You have to help later, ah!"
Hearing that, Steward Qin glanced at Shen Longxuan with surprise, and said: "No problem, how could I dare disobey Brother Huo"s orders? Let"s go!"
Only after the three of them left did everyone in the hall heave a sigh of relief. "d.a.m.n, who is that old man? He"s so awesome!"
"Compared to that old man, I want to know who that boy is. He"s the master of that old man, isn"t he more powerful? "
Plop!
The person checking the tickets collapsed to the ground. He had just received Manager Qin"s Sound Transmitting and was fired!
And everyone in the line at the back, their points cards all lit up one after another.
"d.a.m.n, I"ve been banned from entering the auction house for my entire life!"
"Me too, wronged. I didn"t say anything just now!"
"b.a.s.t.a.r.d, where is that fellow who mocked me just now?" We have been implicated, and they are responsible for this loss. Let"s go! "
A large group of people ran out of the auction house. If they didn"t leave now, there would be people coming to clean up the place. The auction house had always kept its word in this martial arts world.
Shen Longxuan followed the two into an extremely elegant room. The room was not very big, but there was an ancient charm everywhere, making people feel at ease while staying inside.
After the three of them sat down, someone brought three cups of fragrant tea, which immediately released a fragrant aroma, causing Shen Longxuan to take a sip.
"Good tea!" Shen Longxuan subconsciously praised.
After the two of them exchanged greetings for a while, he explained his purpose for coming. Then, he looked at Shen Longxuan and said: "I wonder what your surname is, is there really a Star-Moon Stone that wants to bet?"
"Brat Shen Longxuan, there is a Star-Moon Stone to gamble on!"
"Ah, you must be that Shen Longxuan who got first place in the Star and Moon Large Compet.i.tion! The brat is not bad, he could be said to be very bold and resourceful. Oh right, I will reward you with a middle tier spiritual treasure, do you want to sell it?
Shen Longxuan smiled faintly, and said: "Chief Steward is too funny, who would sell spiritual treasure! This time, I only want to sell a few Star-Moon Stone. "
"However, with the heavy treasure on your body, you must be careful. Not everyone is like us, it"s very likely that they will …" Steward Qin made a one-handed gesture to wipe his neck.
Shen Longxuan said coldly: "Even though this boy isn"t talented, he isn"t afraid of all sorts of challenges. If anyone wants to catch my attention, even if it"s the Martial Grandmaster Stage, I will make sure they won"t be able to return."
Shen Longxuan"s words made people feel that he was arrogant, but what he said was the truth.
"Un, you"re quite bold. The foreign cultivators are different. I hope you can say so when the time comes!" Chief Steward Qin was obviously unhappy, he thought that Shen Longxuan did not know the depth of the heavens and the earth.
