In a vineyard overgrown with weeds, accompanied by a distortion of the space, a figure flew out in some embarrassment, it was Ling Dong.

"Is this a new world?" Ling Dong could feel that the energy here is not as strong as heaven and hell, not even as strong as the realm of the gods, and it is also filled with some chaotic atmosphere.

Outside the vineyard, there is a deserted winery, next to it is a small town, also deserted, no one, everything seems to be the scene of the end of the world

Looking at the architectural style here, it should be that Ling Dong of Western Europe searched for a long time before he finally found someone, some white people, and learned that this is the Blue Star, a planet similar to the Earth, of course, not the Earth that Ling Dong once lived on

Here, after this world enters the interstellar era, it is also called the mother star, a mother star whose environment is getting worse and worse and gradually uninhabitable.

But here, Ling Dong has lived here for decades at once. Together with Annie and Fu Shanxiang, they have witnessed the rise and fall of their mother planet, witnessed the internal struggle of human beings, the destruction of the environment, the rise and demise of ambitious people, and the interstellar era. At the beginning of the [-]th century, human beings stepped out of their home planets and searched for a new living place in the universe

More than 100 years later, human beings already have 23 administrative planets including the parent planet, forming three major alliances, and the population is even larger

Since the first batch of interstellar immigrants entered Mars in the solar system in the year [-], mankind has entered the era of interstellar immigration, which is called the new era, or Xinyuan for short.

SGD [-], Tianxing Mars, Tianhuo City, Tianhuo Avenue

This famous street does not allow any vehicles or robots, let alone mechs.Even the patrolling police have to use the oldest way of walking.Because this was originally a pedestrian street, a noble avenue among the hidden high-tech.

The 48-meter-long street is paved with blue and flat stones. The buildings on both sides of the street are not the same, but each has its own unique heritage and origin.

There are Gothic buildings with towering peaks in ancient France in the Yuan Dynasty, ancient Chinese-style buildings with majestic carvings and jade, and even Roman-style buildings.

It is such a street that does not see any high-tech existence, but it is located in the most prosperous golden area in the center of Tianhuo City. It is no exaggeration to say that every inch of land is expensive.Moreover, this place is almost completely independent of the official existence, because it is one of the three major alliances of human beings, and it is also the strongest alliance. It is also an important support behind the weakest of the three alliances, the Huameng.

Near the middle of Tianhuo Avenue, there is an inconspicuous small shop, but it looks very simple and special. Compared with the surrounding buildings, it looks a bit abrupt, because it is an antique shop and the only one on Tianhuo Avenue. An antique shop.

In fact, on Tianhuo Avenue, there are almost no shops of the same type.Because the people who can open a shop here are all powerful supernatural beings, and their titles are all unique in Tianhuo Avenue, and they are synonymous with power.

Quaint antique shop, full of ancient charm.It looks small from the outside, but the space inside is very spacious.In the slightly dim store, almost every item on display is priceless, and the variety is very diverse.Among them, the most conspicuous ones and the ones that take up the most space are some furniture, including those made of huanghuali wood and rosewood, each set and each piece are peerless treasures.

However, although such an antique shop is open, there are no shop assistants or bosses inside, as if it does not do business outside, and it seems that it is not at all worried that someone will come in and steal.

Inside the antique shop, there are many god statues enshrined. There are Taoist Sanqing, Buddhist Buddha, Bodhisattva, Arhat, Western gods, angels, and even Pluto, Demon King, etc. They are not just placed there, not They are for sale, but real offerings, such as incense burners and futons, which seem to show the richness of the owner's beliefs.

In front of the sacred table enshrining the word "Heaven and Earth" in the middle, a man in a black Tang suit sat cross-legged on the futon, playing with a string of rosary beads, with a piece of beautiful jade hanging on it. It is still crystal clear, lustrous and attractive jade, which is obviously worth a lot.

However, what is surprising is that the man in Tang suit, the owner of such an antique shop full of treasures, looks very young, at most 30 years old, but exudes a quaint and vicissitudes of life.

But when he opened his eyes from sitting quietly, got up and walked out of the antique shop, he had a calm smile on his face, but it was a bit unrestrained, as if there was nothing in this world that he cared about, and there was nothing he couldn't see through. .Those dark and deep eyes revealed the vicissitudes and wisdom of the years.

Playing with the rosary, he left the antique shop called 'Antique Shop' without closing the door, and went straight to an ancient French Gothic building in the Yuan Dynasty diagonally opposite. Don't worry about recruiting thieves in the store.

There are not many pedestrians on Tianhuo Avenue, because coming here requires qualifications, not just money, but also taste.

Only by passing all seventeen assessments can it be possible to obtain the Skyfire Badge.Of course, you have to pay money, in the name of: Tianhuo Avenue Public Maintenance Fund.

However, the man in the black Tang suit has not passed the assessment, because when he came, there was no Tianhuo Dao, he was one of the founders of Tianhuo Dao, his name is Ling Dong.

Of course, after so many years, there are fewer and fewer people who know his origin and identity. He is not even a member of the Tianhuo Avenue Committee, but an ordinary shopkeeper on Tianhuo Avenue, known as an appraiser.If it weren't for the fact that there are too many good things in his antique shop, I am afraid that fewer people would know him.

Chapter 3 and Five

Soaring minarets, pointed arches, large windows and stained glass painted with stories from the Bible.The pointed rib vault, flying buttresses, and slender beam columns create a light and slender sense of flying.The frame structure gives sufficient strength to support the top, making the whole building famous for its straight-up lines, majestic appearance, and open space.

Compared with Ling Dong's antique shop, this Gothic building is like a giant.Even on the entire Tianhuo Avenue, it is the most eye-catching highlight.

"Are you here, appraiser?" When Ling Dong walked into it, a tall, slender girl with long blond hair and wearing an ancient French court dress greeted her, and smiled at Ling Dong with a standard French etiquette. road.

Ling Dong smiled lightly and nodded, "Hello, Eva, is the sommelier here?"

"Yes, the gourmet, the barista and the jeweler are here," Eva said with a smile on her face.

Hearing this, Ling Dong's eyes lit up and the smile on his face became wider: "Oh, it seems that there are delicious food and drinks again."

Eva smiled. She also knew this low-key appraiser very well. She knew that apart from being keen on appraising things, the appraiser liked food and wine the most.Therefore, he often comes here as a sommelier.

Beside a luxurious French palace long table that can accommodate 20 people to dine at the same time, there are several people sitting on each side.On the main seat was an old man who looked about five or sixty years old. He was wearing an elegant French dress and a wig. He was sitting upright and elegant, with a serious expression on his face.

There were two people sitting on one side of the long table. One was slender, with a white shirt, black vest, and short hair. He looked very energetic. He was about forty years old and had a soft smile on his face.

The other person is about 30 years old, with a medium build, wearing a white suit, and his long blond hair is meticulously combed, hanging from both sides of the temples to his shoulders, and he is shining.He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, but the smile in his eyes is not rigorous, with a bit of a bad taste.

"Appraiser, you always come so timely! By the way, with your wealth, it's not good to always come here to eat and drink like this?" The man in the white suit couldn't help but said when he saw Ling Dong coming in.

Ling Dong unceremoniously walked over to him and sat down, smiled slightly and said: "Why spend money when you can eat and drink? You know, I have always been poor, and my shop is all about bartering." I've never touched money directly, I'm not interested in money."

"Yes, that's what rich people say, you're really not an ordinary person," the man in the white suit smiled helplessly.

The wine taster sitting on the main seat and the gourmet at the side also trembled slightly, showing a look of dumbfounding.

They knew that the appraiser was the most discerning, well-informed, and possessed the most good things on Tianhuo Avenue. He was undoubtedly rich, but he was also stingy and vulgar, and very thick-skinned.However, he is very generous to his friends, so he can become friends with the wine taster and the others.

After Ling Dong sat down, the male barista in a white suit with a helpless smile on his face suddenly froze, his eyes were a little bright and he looked straight outside, which also attracted Ling Dong, the sommelier, and the gourmet to turn their heads to look. .

I saw a girl who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old walked in. He had fair skin like jade, long burgundy hair that was combed neatly in big waves, and a white French-style romantic fairy palace hook-and-flower embroidery long skirt. The figure is perfectly outlined.

It's just that such a young girl seemed a little embarrassed when facing Ling Dong and the others.She came in a hurry, with her head down, her fair face and swan-like neck were slightly reddish, her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and her face was full of apology: "Sorry, I'm late."

The wine taster looked at the girl standing by the table with a serious face, and said lightly: "You go! Being late is an unforgivable mistake."

"Why don't you give her a chance?" A sudden clear voice sounded, and a young man in his 20s came out from the inside, with short black hair, a black shirt, black trousers, and a statue of a ancient Greek temple in the Yuan Dynasty. Patterned white waistcoat.

The sommelier sat still and said, "Being late means disrespect."

The young man walked over with a smile, nodded slightly to Ling Dong, and then said: "We young people all have a heart for beauty, why don't we just look at it for my sake and give her a chance."

"He said we were old," the barista said with a smile on his face, as if to say, I'm not one to pick trouble.

The sommelier frowned, while the gourmand looked at the young man's hand: "Jeweler, for the sake of the bottle of wine in your hand, I will support you this time."

Subconsciously turned to look at the jeweler's sommelier, and when his eyes fell on the wine bottle in his hand, he couldn't look away.

The usually calm and serious wine taster stood up abruptly, his lips and the finger pointing at Lan Jue trembled almost simultaneously, and he said with a bit of gritted teeth: "I just let you take a bottle!"

"I'm not a casual person," the jeweler said seriously, and Ling Dong couldn't help laughing, while the gourmet and the barista were also struggling.

"Give it back to me!" The sommelier strode up to the jeweler and snatched the wine from him.

The jeweler didn't dodge, and the wine reached the sommelier's hands, but in his hand was a complete cork, which exuded a faint aroma of wine.

"Bastard, you actually opened it!" The sommelier said angrily.

"Swearing is an unforgivable mistake of a nobleman," the jeweler shook the cork in his hand to him.

The girl in the white dress also raised her head at this time, and seeing the bottle of wine, her aqua-blue eyes were full of sparkle.

The sommelier's breathing seemed a little rough, and after several gasps, he snatched the silver metal piece from the jeweler's other hand: "Eva, warm water, white bread slices, 72-month-old Shangyuan Spanish black Pig ham, sliced."
