Into a Mysterious Realm [Rebirth]

Manbaolou is the largest business firm in the Wendao galaxy. As long as there are planets where cultivators live, there are branches of Manbaolou, which is much higher than Zhenbaoge, which only opens in Chanjuan.

And no matter who goes to Manbaolou to consign and sell items, whether the origin of the items is legitimate, as long as Manbaolou agrees to take over, no one will make trouble.Once, the spirit beast of a Nascent Soul stage elder in the Lei family was lost, was captured, and then brought to Manbaolou for auction.

At that time, neither that person nor Man Baolou knew the origin of the spirit beast. After the auction was arranged, the images of the spirit beast and other commodities were made into jade slips and sent to those customers who often participated in the auction.Not long after, someone recognized that the spirit beast belonged to the elder of Lei's family. They didn't dare to hide anything, so they turned around and told the elder.

Manbaolou also found out about the matter later, facing the questioning of the elders of Lei's family, he said very politely that the spirit beast had become an auction item, and the news had been released, and there was no way to go back on his word, otherwise it would ruin Manbaolou's rule.At that time, the people who spread the word for Manbaolou felt that Manbaolou was too arrogant, and they didn't give Lei's parents face like this.

However, what surprised him was that after passing the words back to the elder Lei's family, the other party was not angry at all, and said that the rules should not be broken, and the man was so frightened that he had hallucinations.In the end, the Lei family sent people to participate in the auction, and bought the spirit beast back at a lower price—knowing that the spirit beast belonged to the elders of the Lei family, who would dare to bid for it?

After this incident, the reputation of Manbaolou was completely established, and it became the most frequented business house for children of various families.

It was only later that word came out that Manbaolou was actually backed by the Council of Elders, and was in charge of the seven highest rulers in the Wendao galaxy.This statement has never been confirmed, but I would rather believe it. Since then, no one who is open-eyed will dare to look for the bad luck of Man Baolou.It's just that this firm has always been relatively low-key and has a high reputation. Even if it is now well-known, it will not do stupid things that do not promise.

For Cheng Musheng and Xian Ouli, Manbaolou best meets their requirements.It would be even better if there was really a Presbyterian Church behind this firm, I'm not afraid that they won't be tempted.The most important thing to note is that when those inheritances come out, they are likely to be reported directly to the elders by Man Baolou. If the elders take a tough attitude and want to seize all the inheritances, they will find it very difficult.

Revolving around the purpose of 'can't be cut off by the elders', Cheng Musheng and Xian Ouli decided that as long as Manbaolou accepted the inheritance, they would immediately disclose the news and let everyone know about it!As the saying goes, public anger is hard to offend, even if it is the ruler of Wendao galaxy, it is impossible to easily face the fierce emotions of billions of monks without wavering.

It's not that the two of them have a villainous heart, but they have seen Luo Hetong and Andrew wipe out the black galaxy with a wave of their hands, but they don't have the slightest compassion. They look down on the lives of hundreds of millions of mortals like ants, and they already know For those who stand at the top of power, even the most insane things can be done.

In the end, Xian Ouli turned into an extremely ordinary-looking person, disguised all his cultivation bases in his body as an unattractive mortal, and walked into the Manbao Building with a cloth bag.

Wearing a black and gray linen shirt, he timidly walked into the gate.

This Manbao Building has nine floors in total, shaped like a pagoda, and the eaves of each floor are full of finger-sized Pixiu, which is designed to suppress the wealth in the building, so that the Manbao Building can only enter and not come out, and the wealth is endless. .The interior of Manbao Building is hexagonal, and the entire nine-story space is connected in the center, straight up and down, but there are different windows on each side of each floor, providing services such as mortgage, sale, valuation, storage and auction.

The central part is the exhibition area, which is nearly ten meters higher than the gate, and there are countless people patrolling and monitoring at any time.After entering the inner hall from the gate, there are rows of jade steps. These steps are also hexagonal in shape, and it is possible to climb up to the item exhibition area at the height of the steps from all directions.

The exhibition is just a noble and elegant way of saying it. In fact, it is a place that sells pills, magic tools and treasures, spiritual plants, spiritual medicines and spiritual beasts.No matter how fancy the name is, Manbaolou is still a trading house, selling various items with various purposes.

The waiter standing at the door to welcome guests saw a common man coming in, looked around as if he was curious, and was fascinated by it, and stood there to block many customers from entering and exiting.Looking at the appearance and dress of the other party, it is inevitable to feel displeased.

His name is Zhang Bin, and he is not the real welcome boy of Manbaolou, but he did something wrong some time ago and was punished by the building to welcome guests at the gate for seven days.

He is only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he has nine levels of qi training and is about to enter the foundation building stage. In addition, his uncle is a venerable in the early stage of Jindan, and many senior brothers and sisters in the foundation stage are fawning on him on weekdays. If you don't like these mortals, your mentality will become arrogant in an instant.

Zhang Bin walked up to the disguised Xian Ouli, snorted coldly, and asked arrogantly: "Little old man, what are you doing here? Did you go to the wrong place?"

At this time, Xian Ouli's hair was gray, his beard was unshaven, his face was deeply wrinkled, and his complexion was sallow. He looked at least five or sixty years old.Hearing the boy's unkind tone, Xian Ouli retreated two steps in fear, tremblingly grasped the cloth bag in his hand, but didn't dare to look at the boy at all, his eyes stared at the ground, as if he was ashamed of himself.

"Immortal... Immortal Master, the villain is here... I have something I want to auction..." He stuttered, and after he finished speaking, Xian Ouli's forehead was dripping with sweat, but he didn't even dare to wipe it off. .

Zhang Bin asked suspiciously, "You have something for auction? Show me." He reached out to grab the cloth bag in his arms, wanting to verify it first.

Unexpectedly, the old man on the opposite side was holding the cloth bag tightly, and even exerted a lot of force. His movements were so violent that he almost stumbled the unsuspecting little Zhang Bin.

"How dare you stop me!" Little Zhang Bin was furious. When was he so humiliated by a mortal?Now the customers passing by the two of them stopped and looked at them curiously, which made him feel ashamed.

Xian Ouli hurriedly explained: "The villain dare not, please forgive me, the immortal master! I just told the person who gave these things to me. Things can't be viewed in public, but can only be given to the shopkeepers in a secret place." Masters appraise it, otherwise...it will definitely cause a catastrophe!"

Zhang Bin let out a sinister laugh, his eyes spit fire and said, "Are you still reasonable? You can cause a big disaster just because you are such a bad old man? I want to see what kind of big disaster it is today!"

He didn't mean to make noise at the gate, but he was fined to be the doorman because he caused trouble, so when he heard the old man say that he caused a catastrophe, he immediately aroused evil fire in his heart.In addition, he has always been arrogant on weekdays, relying on his uncle's relationship to be defiant and domineering, how could he bear it when he was humiliated by a mortal?

Zhang Bin stepped on the seven-star step, and made a lot of tricks in his hands, and he actually used spells on mortals.His reckless attitude disgusted the customers who came in and out around him, and they wondered why there was such a domineering doorman in Manbaolou?But it's none of their own business, they don't want to meddle in their own business, and besides, they have to sell Man Baolou to save face, right?

Therefore, no one stopped Zhang Bin, and in an instant, more than a dozen flames burst out out of thin air, burning towards the bad old man Xian Ouli.

"Oh my god!" Seeing such a battle, the bad old man was so frightened that he trembled, twisted his body and shook his hands, and suddenly fell to the side. At the same time, twelve or thirteen ancient books fell out of the bag. Scattered at his and Zhang Bin's feet.

Xian Ouli, who played the bad old man, was so frightened that he rolled around on the ground, and finally avoided all the flames without any danger. He was so tired that he collapsed on the ground half dead, panting like a pug.

After a long time, he felt that the surroundings were extremely quiet. He raised his head in doubt, and saw that dozens of people around him stood still as if they had been immobilized, and their eyes were about to pop out. He stared at the ancient books on the ground.

Xuanyue Yin Absorption Technique, Concentration Kick, Heavenly Punishment Seal, Thunder Sword Art, Golden Escape Kick, Calamity Transformation Step, Quicksand Finger, Tiangang Treasure...

One by one, the names they have heard or have not heard, caught their eyes and took away the souls of everyone.

Is this a dream?

At this moment, everyone felt very unreal.

The bad old man didn't react slowly, he quickly crawled over to pick up the fallen ancient books, and stuffed them into his cloth bag, his movements were surprisingly fast.

Seeing that the books that were suspected to be inherited were taken away, the crowd immediately exploded, screaming uncontrollably, and rushed towards Xian Ouli frantically!They only have that cloth bag in their eyes, only those inheritances, and only one voice—grab it!

Zhang Bin's reaction was not slow, and he was the closest to Xian Ouli, so he reacted when the crowd was commotion, and immediately protected the old man who was scolded by him a moment ago, and screamed from his mouth, as an excuse Notify the other guards in the building to come and help.At the same time, he yelled at the surging crowd in front of him: "Stand back! Back off quickly! Don't step forward, or I'll throw you all out!"

Words that are usually very intimidating have no effect at this moment. Dozens of people have basically lost their minds. Apart from those inheritances, they have nothing else in their eyes and hearts.There are a few clear-minded ones, but they are happy to pretend to be confused. It is serious to follow other people to take advantage of the chaos to get things. Otherwise, if they are taken over by Manbaolou for auction, what is their business?

The crowd swarmed up, and Zhang Bin had no way of parrying, not to mention that these customers were monks at the Qi training stage and the foundation building stage, how could he resist?But he also knew that he had to resist. If those inherited ancient books were taken away, he would definitely be torn apart by the building when he turned around, and no one would be able to save him!

Zhang Bin is really complaining in his heart at this moment, he keeps blaming that bad old man, why don't you say that you have an inheritance in your hand to be auctioned?If I had said earlier, could I not confess you as my ancestor? !

He selectively forgot Xian Ouli's previous 'reminder', even if he was questioned by the building later, he would never admit that it was his fault!

Zhang Bin gritted his teeth and blocked dozens of pairs of outstretched hands, allowing those people to ravage him into a shapeless shape, but he didn't dare to take a step to protect the bad old man behind him, swearing to the death!

Fortunately, the guards of Manbaolou did not move slowly. After hearing the whistle of the alarm, a large number of people rushed over. You must know that this kind of alarm will only be sent when Manbaolou encounters a major incident. Send out, they naturally dare not neglect.

After arriving at the gate, the guards felt that something was wrong when they saw the turbulent battle. Immediately, two people rushed out, and at the same time made a set of traps to the group of customers, first to control the scene. Let's talk.

This set of magic circles to trap others is exclusive to Manbaolou, and it is used to deal with emergencies. After Manbaolou became famous, it has not been used for hundreds of years.Fortunately, the two guard leaders usually practiced well and performed it smoothly.I saw streaks of light flashing around the crowd, intertwined like fishing nets, encircling all the troublemakers, and immediately fixed them in place, unable to move.

Finally, the situation was under control, and the guards who had dealt with this kind of incident for the first time breathed a sigh of relief.Immediately, they heard a familiar voice from the crowd: "Senior brother Zhao, let me out quickly, why did you trap me?"

One of the two who had cast the trap just now, followed the voice, and suddenly trembled twice.hell!How did that kid Zhang Bin achieve this kind of virtue?

Zhang Bin's hair was disheveled, his clothes were in tatters, and his face was scratched with red and swollen scratches. It was hard to bear to look at him.The other guards all saw Zhang Bin, facing him in extreme embarrassment, they all wanted to applaud and laugh wildly, but they were afraid of his uncle, so they could only hold back their laughter, their expressions were wonderful.

The guard known as Brother Zhao isolated Zhang Bin from the trap, walked over and asked with concern: "Brother, what's going on with you?"

Unexpectedly, Zhang Bin didn't have time to answer him, and immediately turned to look at the bad old man behind him, for fear that he would be affected—probably because he was afraid that the cloth bag in his arms would be snatched away.

Seeing that the cloth bag was still there, Zhang Bin finally felt relieved, and quickly pointed at the old man and said, "Senior brother Zhao, let him go quickly!"

"Huh?" Brother Zhao saw the person hiding behind Zhang Bin, and seeing Zhang Bin so nervous, he was suspicious for a while.

Zhang Bin found that he hadn't moved, so he let out a oops, walked up to Brother Zhao, whispered something in his ear, and briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter.

When Brother Zhao heard that there were more than a dozen ancient books suspected to be inherited in the old man's bag, his first reaction was ecstasy, and then he knew that the matter was now in trouble. It could have been quietly taken down from the building, but it has already become a big mess. Would it be impossible to kill all the people who saw this?

For the first time, Senior Brother Zhao glared at Zhang Bin with a fierce expression.

Although in the narration just now, Zhang Bin pushed the matter to the old man and those crazy customers, but his temperament is clear to Senior Brother Zhao. If it wasn't for him being unfavorable, how could the matter have become so big?

With all kinds of complicated emotions in his heart, Senior Brother Zhao rescued the bad old man from the trap, looked up and down, and found that the old man had no injuries. Let things be snatched away.

The bad old man shook his head in a daze. Zhang Bin had given up his own protection earlier and had been using fire protection to protect him, so he didn't get hurt.Looking down at the cloth bag in his hand, the old man let out a long breath, and then muttered: "If you say it, it will cause a big disaster, and you still don't believe me..."

He thought his voice was very low, but he got into the ears of Brother Zhao and Zhang Bin word by word. The former gave the latter a stare, which made Zhang Bin regret to death.Walking back to the group of guards, Brother Zhao said to the others: "Close all the doors, and no one in the store is allowed to let go. I will be responsible for any accidents. Go!"

This Senior Brother Zhao has always been meticulous in his work and has a strong background, so the guards did not dare to neglect, and all went to get busy.It's just that their reaction was much slower. Three or five people had fled before the guards arrived, and there was so much movement at that time, many customers screamed "inheriting ancient books", and other customers in the store heard it too. A lot of them are gone now.

Brother Zhao himself took the old man Xian Ouli and Zhang Bin to the top floor.

Flying is prohibited in Manbao Building, and there is an air-forbidden formation, so even if you are in a hurry, you can only walk up the steps.During the walk, Senior Brother Zhao simply asked the old man some things.

"Old man, where did you get these ancient books?"

"It was a very handsome young man who gave it to the villain and asked the villain to auction it. He said that these letters were very valuable, but he couldn't come here in person, so he gave the villain a hundred taels of silver and asked the villain to put them away for him. Come to your store for auction. The young man is a good man, and he has already given the villain 20 taels as a deposit! But the young man said that these things are very expensive and cannot be seen in public, otherwise it will cause disaster, but... ...but this immortal teacher..." The bad old man looked at Zhang Bin vaguely after speaking, but he didn't dare to say more.

Brother Zhao immediately understood what had happened, and he was about to hate Zhang Bin to death!He could predict that things that could have been concealed were now exposed in advance, and it is absolutely impossible to let Man Baolou decide privately!This is the inheritance of twelve books that have long been lost!It is enough to make any desperado take risks, and it can make all families lose face and compete for it!

And who is the young man that the bad old man said?How could there be so many inheritance ancient books?Could it be that the ruins of the ancient sect were discovered?So besides these twelve books, will there be other inheritances?

Brother Zhao's mind was active, and he thought of a lot in a flash.But with his ingenuity, he couldn't imagine that there were not only twelve ancient books falling out of that inconspicuous cloth bag, but as many as 66!

Along the way, Senior Brother Zhao received many communications from the top management of Manbaolou, asking what happened earlier, but Senior Brother Zhao responded vaguely.This matter was too serious, he didn't dare to talk nonsense, otherwise he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

When we came to the ninth floor, a formation was arranged at the top of the stairs, and the surroundings immediately became quiet after going up, and we couldn't hear the noisy sound in the business, as if we had come to another place.Walking into one of the doors, Brother Zhao took off the jade pendant from his waist and pasted it into a square box hanging on the door.

Not long after, the door creaked and opened inward, and a screen painted with flowers, birds, fish and insects appeared in front of the three of them.

Under the leadership of Senior Brother Zhao, Zhang Bin and Xian Ouli walked in, and then the door closed automatically, isolating the inside and outside of the room.Bypassing the lifelike screen, the space immediately becomes wider, at least hundreds of square meters. There are Eight Immortals tables, Taishi chairs, multi-treasure shelves, bookshelves, potted plants, fish tanks and several landscape paintings, making the room full of books. .

This place does not look like a monk's room at all, but rather like a place where mortal middle school students live, which makes Xian Ouli feel very novel.

Behind the table of the Eight Immortals, a tall and thin old man was splashing ink and brushing his brush, holding a pen and concentrating on painting, not paying any attention to the three people who came.Senior Brother Zhao and Zhang Bin became respectful when they saw the old man, with their chests raised, their stomachs retracted and their heads bowed, without daring to neglect them at all.

The old man Xian Ouli dressed up as was naturally more reserved, looking at the ground in a daze.

I don't know how long it took before the sound of the brush being put down came out. The old man blew on the ink on the painting, picked it up and admired it for himself. He couldn't help nodding, his painting skills had improved.

The old man held the picture scroll fondly, and asked inadvertently, "Xiao Zhao, you wouldn't just bring someone to my place, what happened?"

Brother Zhao took a step forward, bowed respectfully and said, "Reporting to Elder Unming, this old man has something important and sent it to our building to participate in the auction. Because the things are too precious...no, too rare and precious, disciples and grandchildren dare not To be the master, we have to bring people here, and ask the elders to make the decision in person.”

"Oh?" The old man paused. He knew Zhao Yi very well, and he was by no means a random person, but he didn't pay much attention to it.As one of the three elders of Manbaolou town building, what good things hasn't he seen?It's nothing more than some rare genius treasures.

So he didn't put down the scroll in his hand, nodded and asked, "What is it?"

Zhao Yi said in a deep voice: "Reporting to the elder, this old man has twelve ancient books that seem to have been lost long ago! The apprentice is not sure whether it is true or not, so I ask the elder to check it."

As soon as the four words of the ancient book of inheritance came out, the old man known as the unknown elder shook his hands and almost tore the scroll in his hand to pieces!

Before he could react, the bad old man interjected, "It's not twelve books. The villain counted them carefully, and there are 66 books in total."

"Six... 66 books?!" Three voices exclaimed at the same time, full of shock and disbelief.

The bad old man nodded straightforwardly and said: "Yes, I have counted the number several times, and there must be no mistakes."

Elder Weiming let go of his hand, and the painting scroll, which he regarded as a treasure, fell on the table with a clang, and happened to fall into the inkstone, and was immediately stained into a mess.

But at this moment, he couldn't care about it at all, and even said eagerly without grace: "Bring it here! Take it here quickly!!"

"Yes." Zhao Yi was also a little stuck in his head, took the cloth bag from the bad old man, and carefully placed it on the table of the Eight Immortals, for fear that there would be no accident in his hands.Zhang Bin's eyes were straightened, his face was ashen, and he knew that he had made a huge mess!

Elder Wei Ming performed a cleaning technique on his hands, and then took out the ancient books of inheritance from the cloth bag with his own hands.Although it is not sure whether it is true or not, he must face it with the mentality of treating genuine, orphan, and unique products!

When the three of them looked at those inheritances, the old man who had been forgotten showed a triumphant smile.
