Overthrow the system, the boss behind the scenes, don't run away
Chapter 206 Not Sweet Anymore
After Qingyun returned to his room, Qinglu picked up two boxes of snacks that were placed aside and went to knock on Feng Pipi's door.
Feng Pipi was racing against time in the room to adjust her inner breath, accumulate spiritual power, and concentrate her mind. She did not dare to slack off at all.
She needs to make comprehensive preparations both mentally and physically for this auction.
A fatal incident happened last time she attended an auction, although she was the one who caused it.
But this time she had to show her money in front of everyone, for fear that someone might have bad intentions.
Whether it was robbery or rape, it was not what she wanted to see.
She heard a knock on the door, stopped breathing, and saw Qing Lu when she opened the door.
She asked curiously, "Why did Immortal Lord Qinglu come to see me instead of accompanying Immortal Lord Qingyun?"
Qing Lu replied in high spirits: "I had dinner with my sister. She has returned to her room. I brought some snacks to see you."
Feng Pipi thought it was so rare that the "sister's boy" could not only take care of his sister but also remember her as his good friend. She was a little touched.
She invited Qinglu into the room and ate snacks happily. When she looked up, she saw that Qinglu was in an even happier mood than her.
She said sourly: "The brother-sister relationship between Qinglu Immortal Lord and Qingyun Immortal Lord is really enviable. Just being around makes them so happy."
"It's not just because I found my sister, it's also because of you!" Qing Lu explained: "I told my sister about you, and now my sister likes you as much as I do. My sister agreed that we can be friends!"
Feng Pipi frowned and looked at Qing Lu. The snack in her hand suddenly lost its sweetness. After all, the two of them had been through life and death together, and even to be friends, they had to ask their sister for permission...
If her heart wasn't strong enough, Qing Lu would have made her so angry that she would vomit blood!
She suppressed the urge to chase Qing Lu out, and with difficulty maintained an awkward smile, took a big bite of the dessert, and said:
"Thank you, and thank you Sister Qingyun!"
"You're welcome!" Qing Lu said naively, "I can understand how you feel now. You must be as happy as I am now.
My sister looks very serious, but she is actually a very easy-going person. You will like her as much as I do in the future."
Feng Pipi felt uncomfortable when she thought of Qingyun Immortal Lord's cold face. She said, "Well, I understand. I'm very happy. Thank you, Immortal Lord!"
The recognized Qinglu Immortal Lord was as happy as a child. He pushed the snacks in front of Feng Pipi and said, "Eat, eat more."
Feng Pipi didn’t even want to eat the snack she had just taken a bite of. Looking at the pile of greasy snacks on the plate, she suddenly felt bitter in her heart and nothing was sweet anymore!
She said unhappily, "I'm really not hungry, Immortal Lord, please go out first, I want to rest for a while!"
Qing Lu didn't expect Feng Pipi to chase him away so soon. He said reluctantly, "Okay then, you should have a good rest. I'll come to call you and sister at twilight hour, and we'll go to Juxian Tower together."
At this moment, there are three people living in a small courtyard, two of them have complicated emotions, and one is heartless.
Those with complicated emotions are concentrating and practicing diligently, while the heartless one is sitting under the windowsill, staring at the clouds in the sky in a daze.
Time passed quickly, the sun was setting, Qinglu counted on his fingers and finally it was the You hour. He happily went to knock on Feng Pipi's door, which gave Feng Pipi a fright.
Feng Pipi hadn't gotten used to this reckless Qing Lu yet, so she replied helplessly, "I understand. I'll pack up and go out. You go and see how Immortal Lord Qingyun is preparing."
Qinglu turned around and knocked on Qingyun's door. As soon as he raised his hand, Qingyun opened the door and asked, "Qinglu, do you have any money with you?"
Qing Lu took out a silk bag from his sleeve, and then took out a purse from the silk bag. He handed the purse to Qing Yun and said, "Look, I didn't bring much money this time, and I spent some of it. This is all I have left, about a hundred spirit beads."
Qingyun took the purse and said, "Well, since you have no place to spend the money, leave the spirit beads with me first. You can go back to Bailing Mountain to get them if you need them."
Qing Lu put away his silk robe, Feng Pi Pi pushed the door open and said, "I'm ready, let's go!"
Then the three of them walked out slowly.
As the sky gradually darkened, Qingluan Street remained bustling as always. All the shops on both sides of the street, regardless of whether they were open at night or not, hung up beautiful lanterns.
The most lively place was Juxian Tower. The bustling atmosphere there could be seen from several streets away. When the three of them were about to arrive, Manager Zhu came out from afar and warmly welcomed them to Xiaohan's room.
The layout of Juxian Tower is similar to that of Sihai Restaurant, except that wearing masks was not popular at auctions a thousand years ago, and the guests in the hall either changed their faces or wore hats.
The privacy protection measures in the rooms of Juxian Building are quite good. There are bamboo curtains in front of the windows and screens in front of the doors. If the guests want to show their faces, they just need to take a step towards the window. If they don't want to show their faces, they just need to show their hands holding a sign.
The sound insulation effect of the wing rooms is also good. The sounds from the left and right wing rooms will not leak into each other. When the door is opened, the sound comes from outside the door. When the door is opened, the sound comes from outside the window. When the door and window are closed, there is no noise.
Feng Pipi and the other two sat down in the Xiaohan room, which was not spacious but elegant. Manager Zhu had arranged drinks and snacks in advance, and everything went smoothly.
Looking through the window at the auction table downstairs, I saw a man and a woman hosting the auction:
The man has the temperament of a scholar, with a fair face and red lips, and is well-mannered. He holds a small golden hammer in his hand. When the hammer rings, a box full of spiritual beads appears.
The woman was charming and seductive, and her every move was full of charm. Wherever she went, she could make ordinary things seem extraordinary, and every time she opened her mouth, she could always liven up the atmosphere of the whole event.
The auction at Juxianlou has already gone through two rounds and is now in the third round.
Manager Zhu introduced: "The girl presiding over the auction on the stage is the courtesan invited from Saishenxian, Miss Qingqing, and the gentleman is the calligraphy and painting teacher of Beilou Academy, Mr. Weishu.
The first round of auctions were for mortal antiques and jades, the second round was for medicinal materials, fairy flowers and herbs, the third round was for stunning beauties and fairy slaves, and this round is for fairy beasts and pets.
I won't waste any more time on the details. You three can take a look at the auction brochure. If you need anything, just let me know. If I'm not here, there are two servants guarding outside the door!"
Feng Pipi said, "Okay, we understand. Thank you for your concern, Manager Zhu. If you are busy, please go ahead. We will call you if we have anything to ask."
Manager Zhu went out. Feng Pipi and the other two looked towards the stage, where the Forget-Your-Sorrow Beast, 胐胐, was being auctioned. 胐胐 looked like a cute cat with a long white tail. Just looking at it from a distance made people happy.
Although the 胐胐 is not a divine beast and cannot be used as a mount or guard the house, it is deeply loved by the ladies and girls of wealthy families. Its value has always been high and its treatment has always been good.
Miss Qingqing said in a rhythmic manner: "...The Forget-Your-Sorrow Beast we are bidding on today is only five months old, which is the best time to train it. The starting price is 1,500 spirit beads, and each bid will increase by 50 spirit beads...
The Jingzhe guest offered 1,700 spirit beads... The Guyu guest offered 1,950 spirit beads... The Mangzhong guest offered 2,050 spirit beads... Is there anything else?
Two thousand and fifty spirit beads once, two thousand and fifty spirit beads twice, two thousand and fifty spirit beads three times, congratulations to the guest in the Grain in Ear Wing Room for obtaining the Worry-Free Beast, I wish the guest a life without worries and everything goes well..."
Feng Pipi finds everything curious and is tempted by everything, but in fact, she can afford everything.
But she was like a floating duckweed, with no fixed place to live, and no one could take care of her. Buying a living thing would be a burden, but buying an inanimate object would not be too much.
Qinglu and Qingyun were more interested in watching the lively crowd than the rare spiritual objects. Those spiritual objects that were sought after as valuable as hundreds or thousands of pearls were nothing more than little things running around in their backyard.
Behind Qinglu is the entire East China Sea. There are many more rare things in the sea than on land. Behind Qingyun is the entire Linglong Kingdom. The spiritual creatures on Bailing Mountain and Taoshan are famous in the entire world of immortal cultivation.
