Dugu Bo looked at them and warned:
"I'll let you go for now. If I find out you're cheating again, it won't be so simple."
Then. The stall owner quickly nodded in agreement and left the nearby area dejectedly.
Zhuge Lan looked at the stall owner and others leaving, and walked to the side of the man in crimson robe.
Patted the man in crimson robe on the shoulder and said:
"Brother, this time I can give you some relief. You have to be more careful in the future and don't fall for this kind of trick easily again."
The man in the crimson robe looked at Zhuge Lan gratefully and said:
“Thank you so much for this time. If it weren’t for your help, my money would have been wasted. I don’t know how long I will be deceived by them.”
Zhuge Lan smiled slightly and said:
“It is necessary to help each other when we are out, but in this world, liars do. Quite a bit, we have to be more careful. "
The man in the crimson robe pondered for a moment and said:
"After this incident, I feel that I am still too naive. I plan to practice hard first and improve my strength and knowledge, otherwise I will encounter this next time In this case, you may still suffer a loss."
As he said that, he took out a thousand gold soul coins and handed them to Zhuge Lan as a thank you.
"Oh, what are you doing! I can do this with just a little effort, no need!"
Zhuge Lan refused in his mouth, but he was very honest in his hands.
He held his hands forward motionless, showing no intention of taking them back.
The man in crimson robe looked at Zhuge Lan and couldn't help but smile.
He knew that Zhuge Lan was being polite, but in his heart he still wanted to accept this thank you.
So he simply put the Golden Soul Coin into Zhuge Lan's hand and said:
"Brother, don't refuse, this is my intention. If you hadn't been honest, Please help me, I will be at a loss today. Just accept it and make me feel better.”
When Zhuge Lan saw this, he smiled, put away the gold soul coin, and said:
"Then I'm welcome, haha. If you have anything in the future, just come to me."
After speaking, he patted his chest, looking confident.
The man in the crimson robe nodded and said:
"Thank you, brother. I am really lucky to have the honor to meet you all today. I wonder where you are going next?"
Dugu Bo stroked his green beard and said slowly:
"We plan to go to the auction. I heard there are many interesting things there."
"Auction ?”
The man in the crimson robe was startled for a moment, then smiled:
“Yes, most of the people who came to the ghost market today were for this annual auction. Go.”
Zhuge Lan also nodded, with expectation in his eyes, and said excitedly:
"Yes! I heard that the things in this auction are very precious, they are all peerless treasures."
>The man in the crimson robe flashed a light in his eyes and said:
"Since you are going to the auction, what a coincidence. I also know a little bit about the auction, maybe I can provide you with some information."
Dugu Bo looked at him with interest , asked: "Oh? What do you know about that auction?"
The man in the crimson robe cleared his throat and said:
"This auction attracts many powerful and wealthy people every year. There are a wide range of auction items, ranging from precious There are everything from soul bones to rare fairy grass, from powerful weapons to mysterious techniques. Moreover, the competition in the auction is also very fierce. Sometimes, all parties will fight to death for a favorite treasure."
After hearing this, Zhuge Lan couldn't help but exclaimed:
"So powerful! We need to learn more about it. However, we don’t know much about the rules of this auction. Can you tell us about it?”
The man in the crimson robe nodded and said:
"Of course. The rules of the auction are actually not too complicated. First of all, entering the auction requires certain identity verification or an invitation letter. However, it depends on your temperament. , I guess you are not an ordinary person, so there should be no problem. First of all, identity verification means that you must show your security to the guards. You must have at least five thousand gold soul coins on your person. In other words, you need to show that you have at least this amount of wealth when entering the venue. Secondly, there is an invitation letter. Only those big families with strong family backgrounds will be invited."
Zhuge Lan nodded and continued to listen carefully to his story.
“During the auction process, everyone can bid according to their own wishes, and each bid increase has a certain range requirement. If the final bid is the highest, you will get the auction item. However, it should be noted that once the bid is made, , you can’t go back on your word, otherwise you will be severely punished by the auction.”
After listening, Dugu Bo said:
"Well, these rules are reasonable. Then have you heard about any special treasures at this auction?"
The man in the crimson robe thought for a moment and said:
"I'm not sure about this. Auction items are usually kept secret and will only be revealed at the time of the auction. However, based on my past experience, Look, there will be a few treasures at the end of each auction, which will definitely make people’s eyes brighter.”
Zhu Gelan rubbed his hands excitedly:
"Haha, I'm really looking forward to it. By the way, brother, you just said you know a thing or two about auctions. Do you go there often?"
The man in the crimson robe smiled sheepishly and said:
"Emmm, after all, this auction is only held once a year. I will go there to have a look and gain some knowledge. After all, my strength is limited, those The auction prices for treasures are sky-high! I can only look at them, but I can’t afford them. I remember there was a very small elixir that was no longer available at the end of the auction. Instead of using money to compete, they exchanged things for things. Many people exchanged their treasures, and some even put their entire family property in exchange."
Zhuge Lan also reacted after hearing this. Shocked:
“I’ll go, is it so exciting?”
At this time, Dugu Bo patted the man in the crimson robe on the shoulder and said:
"Young man, don't be discouraged. As long as you practice hard, you will have everything in the future. You see, we have also come step by step from our youth."
The man in the crimson robe pretended to be grateful and looked at Dugu Bo , said:
"Senior is right, I will definitely work hard."
"Ah! That's right."
At this time, the man in the crimson robe looked like Suddenly I remembered something.
He took out a black card from his arms, handed it to Dugu Bo, and said:
"Senior, take this card."
Dugu Bo took the black card, and this The black card has a pattern printed on it, like the logo of some sect or organization.
He asked with some confusion:
"What kind of card is this?" (End of this chapter)
