The Portal of Wonderland

Disturbed by this incident, Shi Mu lost the interest to visit other shops.

As he walked back, his mind was racing with thoughts.

Liu An suddenly appeared in Cangxu City, especially on the eve of the auction, which made him vigilant.

Back then in Tianyu City, the situation of Liu An's bloodbath ascending to immortality auction was somewhat similar to what he was seeing now, and it seemed that the star stones in the auction were used.

Although I had experienced it myself at that time, I thought it had nothing to do with me, but in the end, I was wanted by the Tongtian Immortal Sect because of this incident.

Now one of the organizers of this auction is Zhong Xiu, this is one of the people he cares about the most, he must not let anything happen to Zhong Xiu, even if he faces someone whose cultivation level far exceeds his own, he will not back down .

Thinking of this, Shi Mu couldn't help clenching his fists.

At this moment, a small figure swooped down from midair and landed on Shi Mu's shoulder, it was Cai'er.

Where did you go just now? Shi Mu asked.

You still say, fortunately I reacted quickly and flew early! I don't know why, every time I see this Liu An, I feel uncomfortable. How come he and Miss Leng also know each other? Cai'er said.

Miss Leng is the daughter of the leader of the Mingyue sect. They are both members of the Western sect of the Mingyue, so it is not surprising that they know each other. But a deputy leader and a daughter of the leader, what are they doing together to find Linghu Kuan... Shi Muruo thought Thinking muttered to himself.

Shitou, why did I see you and Liu An chatting happily inside, I thought you were really old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years. Cai'er said.

Now that Leng Yuetong probably thinks so. Cai'er, go and watch Liu An, monitor his every move, and tell me immediately if there is any abnormal behavior. Shi Mu said.

This Liu An is as cunning as a ghost, and has a high level of cultivation. What if he finds out? I'm not really afraid of him, it's just that there is a contingency in everything. What if he finds out that I'm following him? I don't want to be turned into a zombie parrot! Cai'er shuddered when she heard this, and yelled unwillingly.

I know your ability, if you fly higher and farther away, it's impossible for him to detect it. Shi Mu said.

Cai'er wanted to say something more, but her mouth was blocked by a piece of water attribute spirit stone that followed.

Cai'er swallowed the spirit stone in two mouthfuls, hiccupped, and then glanced at Shi Mu with resentful eyes, and flew away without saying anything more.

That night, Shi Mu was sitting cross-legged in the house.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed in front of his eyes, but it was Cai'er who opened the shared vision.

Then, a picture appeared in Shi Mu's mind.

A man in a moon-white robe was riding a black horse out of the west gate of Cangxu City, turned directly into a rugged mountain road not far away, and headed away in a direction far away from the city.

Due to the hazy night, the opponent was riding very fast, and Caier seemed to be far away, so he couldn't see his face clearly.

But judging from the other party's attire and that long bloody hair, this person must be Liu An without a doubt.

Seeing this, Shi Mu was startled.

Liu An didn't make any trouble this time, and just left Cangxu City directly, which made Shi Mu a little confused.

Although I don't know if the other party is leaving temporarily or has other plans, but the other party is not in the city, I always feel a sense of relief in my heart.

By the way, Leng Yuetong didn't go with him? Shi Mu suddenly thought of something.

At this moment, the gate of the small courtyard was pushed open with a creak, and Zhong Xiu walked in from the outside with a tired look on his face.

Xiu'er, you're back. Shi Mu went out to greet her.

Zhong Xiu went out early this morning, saying that he was going to visit some merchants and forces in the city, trying to make some contacts for the upcoming auction and find some opportunities for cooperation.

Is everything going well? Shi Mu asked.

Elder Zhao has been running Cangxu City for many years. Some big powers or shops in the city have supported her both openly and secretly. Although they didn't expressly refuse, I can see that even if the other party has something entrusted, they are unlikely to come to us. These few days At the end of the day, I only got the support of some small and medium-sized forces, and this is the result of making a lot of concessions in terms of commission. Zhong Xiu and Shi Mu walked into a living room side by side, sat down, and said.

Shi Mu nodded, these situations were all expected.

The enchanting woman occupies a favorable location, and she also has the secret support of Vice President Wang, the top executive of the chamber of commerce. It is normal to have an advantage at the beginning.

By the way, the star stone owned by City Lord Linghu shouldn't be included in the entrusted auction? Shi Mu asked.

Well, he didn't take out the star stone. At present, it seems that the star stone you entrusted, Big Brother Shi, is our biggest reliance at present, but Elder Zhao should also have something finale here. Zhong Xiu said.

It's okay, Xiu'er, don't worry too much, I still have a solution. Shi Mu said.

Brother Shi, you... what else can you do? Zhong Xiu was taken aback, although he would not doubt anything Shi Mu said, but he still couldn't believe it.

After all, Shi Mu was very satisfied with being able to take out a star stone. The finale of the Ascension Immortal Auction in Tianyu City was just a star stone.

Xiu'er, go and buy some talisman papers made of animal skins for me, the higher the level, the better. Shi Mu said.

It's not a problem, but what are you going to use it for? Could it be... Zhong Xiu asked.

That's right, drawing talismans. You may not know, Xiu'er, but I have a lot of experience in making talismans. Shi Mu laughed.

Zhong Xiu was startled when he heard this, but before he could ask any more questions, Shi Mu took out a small jade box, handed it to Zhong Xiu, and said:

Also, I have a present for you today.

Zhong Xiu took it in a daze, as if he hadn't realized what Shi Mu said just now.

Open the lid, and inside is a blue fruit the size of a thumb.

This is? Zhong Xiu asked.

This thing is called Ningyan Fruit, and after taking it, it can make your face stay forever. Shi Mu said.

Really? Zhong Xiu was overjoyed.

The Biyin Wanbo Kungfu she practiced is quite special, it is a rare martial art practiced by fellow practitioners. After joining the Chamber of Commerce, using the resources here, her techniques have stepped into the moon-level realm first, and her lifespan has been prolonged. At the same time, the aging of the face has also become very slow, but no matter how slow it is, it will still age. No woman can resist the temptation of a permanent face.

Of course it is true. Shi Mu said.

Zhong Xiu's eyes lit up, and with a whoosh, he took out the Ningyan fruit, stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it.

Hey, don't be so anxious... Shi Mu was taken aback.

This way I won't grow old... Zhong Xiu seemed to be choked, hiccupped, and then laughed.

Shi Mu couldn't help laughing a little.

By the way, there is this one, I got it outside today, let's put it up for sale at the auction, to increase the bargaining chip. Shi Mu took out the ghost crying stamen again.

Ghost crying core! Zhong Xiu said in surprise, then nodded.

As for the meditation tower, after Shi Mu thought about it, he still didn't take it out.

...

Time passed gradually, and more than a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the ten-year auction conference in Cangxu City was already approaching.

In the recent period, the flow of people in Cangxu City has also increased several times than usual, and many representatives of the nearby barbarian forces have flocked here, making the shops in the city even more prosperous.

After the announcement of the City Lord's Mansion at the beginning of the month, most people have already learned that the Cangxu Auction is still organized by the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce, and it will also be divided into two venues, the east and the west. However, some careful people have discovered that the Yingxian Pavilion in the east of the city The venue and the Yuquan Pavilion venue in the west of the city are different from the usual cooperation situation this time, and there is a hidden tendency of confrontation.

In the few days since the beginning of the month, Yingxian Pavilion and Yuquan Pavilion held several small auctions respectively, and set up some permanent booths, in name to gather popularity, but whether it was time arrangement, products, or even publicity In terms of strength and so on, they are all incompatible with each other.

Where there is competition, there will be improvement. In this way, everyone has more expectations for the final official auction.

To the west of Cangxu City, Yuquan Pavilion.

In a room in the pavilion, an enchanting woman stood in front of the window, looking at the swarming crowd below, with a smug look on her face.

Elder Zhao is really extraordinary. The recent auctions have achieved outstanding results. Although these results are not counted in the final total results, they have directly contributed to several large commissions. A young woman in green wearing a gold hairpin had a complimenting expression on her face. Said in the mouth.

The enchanting woman showed a proud look on her face. She took all the high-quality goods from Zhong Xiu first, and some of them were sold at the small auctions held in the past few days. Because the quality was higher than the other party, and some local forces Sure enough, it attracted a large number of guests.

How is the situation at Yingxian Pavilion? the enchanting woman asked immediately.

Now more than 50% of the potential tourists in the city have gathered in our Yuquan Pavilion. Except for some who have not sold yet, the number of people who have visited Zhongxiu's Yingxian Pavilion is probably less than 20%. The young woman in green said.

Very well, continue to suppress the business of Yingxian Pavilion, but we will double the amount of items they take out, and the price will be reduced by 10%. The enchanting woman said with a cold light in her eyes.

Yes. The young woman in green hurriedly agreed.

Although she was the shopkeeper of Yuquan Pavilion before, her status in the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce was far from that of the enchanting woman, and now she wanted to take this opportunity to build a relationship with her.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, and a man in Tsing Yi walked in.

Elder Zhao, Elder Gushan from the Divine Eagle Division, Patriarch Zan from the Cangyu Division, and the head of the Black Spirit Society have arrived. The man in Tsing Yi said.

Okay, let them wait for a while, and I'll go right away. After explaining a few words to the young woman in green, the enchanting woman tidied up her appearance and walked out. (to be continued ~^~)
