Health Martial Saints: Start With Soaking Your Feet

Chapter 58: Fifty Eight: The Beginning of the Spring Auction

With the publicity in full swing, the Spring Auction Day of the Three Sessions is getting closer.

The number of foreign forces coming to Kunpeng City has also increased significantly recently.

Including the three major gangs in the Northland, Longxiang Temple, Yanglong Temple, and Xuedaomen, all sent people here.

"Good rain knows the season, when spring is here."

Last night, a spring rain quietly fell, completely dispelling the cold weather.

The spring rain is as moist as oil, and this year's farmers should have a good harvest.

Stepping on the morning rain and dew, I don't know how many people walked out of the house with thousands of dollars in their pockets.

In the backyard of Laoyu Baozi Shop in Nancheng, Baozi Xishi was tear-stained, bowed his head in silence, and his face was still covered with bruises.

Looking at her husband whom she has been with for more than a year day and night, but now she is very strange, and her heart is full of confusion for a moment.

Lao Yu was sharpening his knife, earnestly and meticulously, just like the buns he made.

Outside the door stood a stocky man with triangular eyes.

It seems to be vigilant, but it is actually defensive.

Lao Yu saw that the bright smile on his wife's face all day was gone, replaced by tears, and he felt a little regretful, "My lady, what happened last night was wrong for my husband, and my husband shouldn't have done anything to you."

He reached out to touch the lady's face, but she timidly backed away.

Old Yu simply withdrew his hand, and said in a cold tone: "I assure you, my husband, this is the last time. After this time, I will take you far away, and we will go to Runjing, a warmer inland place. From now on, we will never have to spend the whole day again. Selling buns, I will definitely let Huiyou live like a rich wife."

Hearing this, Baozi Xishi finally raised her head, and said timidly: "...you know, I never pray for the life of a rich wife, I just hope to live a peaceful life. If you... can't come back, I should How to live?"

Lao Yu was silent for a moment, glanced at the triangular eyes outside the door, and wrote on the table with water from a knife sharpener.

He said in his mouth: "I have waited for this opportunity for so long. If I don't want to waste my whole life, I have to go. It will be fine. Don't worry, I promise you, I will definitely come back."

The triangular eyes outside the door were listening with pricked ears, curled their lips when they heard the words, sneered in their hearts, and looked disdainful.

After finishing speaking, Lao Yu suddenly withdrew his knife and strode out of the house.

The expression on the triangular-eyed face retracted, followed closely behind.

Baozi Xishi was anxious, and hurried to the door, "The head of the house..."

Old Yu paused.

"Come back safely, I will wait for you at home."

Lao Yu didn't turn around, just nodded slightly, and then walked away quickly again.

Baozi Xishi didn't wipe away her tears until she couldn't see anyone, walked to the table, and looked at the words that had dried up with water.

In a luxurious courtyard in the city, luxury carriages drove out one after another.

The emblems on these carriages are all moonlight lions that glow in the night, which is the family emblem of the King of Tiandu in the North. The carriage rolled over the early morning raindrops and went straight to a certain house in the city.

When they came to the door, the gate of the house opened from the middle, and then an old housekeeper came out.

"His Royal Highness, it's very unfortunate. Miss received a secret report last night from the Lantern Secretary, and she has already gone out to perform a mission early, and she is not at home today."

A clear voice came from the carriage, "Leaving in such a hurry, Yemei still doesn't want to see me. It's okay, I just saw something at the spring auction today, which is especially suitable for Yemei. Butler, remember to tell Yemei, I Will visit again someday.”

"Yes, the old slave must bring it."

In Guishou Hall, Huang Henian stood in the somewhat empty courtyard, looking towards the west city.

"Master, today is the Spring Auction of the Three Sessions. It is estimated that there will be a battle between dragons and tigers. Shall we go and see the scene?" Cheng Lin came out from behind.

Huang Henian said: "What are you going to do?"

"Since the three major chambers of commerce dare to put that thing up for auction, they must have made all the preparations. Even those who covet it should wait until the auction is over before making any moves. Our purpose is not here, so don't worry about it."

"yes."

this day.

Li Suian also gets up early.

Daily practice.

Low-key practice, persistent practice.

Only a strong self is the right way!

With the help of sufficient spiritual food, the progress of the fourth level of his turtle-snake breathing power has also been greatly improved, and he will be able to go further in a month or so.

"If this trip goes well, maybe it can be faster."

After exercising, he took a shower, and just happened to have a big appetite, so he ate the breakfast carefully prepared by the little maid without haste.

At this time, Fu Qingnian came over and handed Li Suian a round of bank notes.

"Master, it's basically here, and the young master still needs to be careful."

"I know."

"Do you really not need Chen Zhonghe's company?"

Li Suian said: "The less people know about this matter, the better. If things fail, I will resolutely stop."

Fu Qingnian hesitated to speak, and finally only changed into one sentence, "Master, be careful in everything."

"Ok."

If spreading money can be turned into strength, he is willing to go bankrupt.

Li Suian was not unprepared when he went to the auction.

With the help of narcissus, I made a new shape.

The skin is coated with a special potion, and it becomes slightly dark. The hair is loose, and there are a few small braids tied by the deer at the temples, and there are small accessories such as animal teeth and feathers. There are also looming tattoos drawn on the exposed skin of the neck, and a big beard is stuck on the face, which looks like a tribe.

Li Suian looked at the curious deer.

"Bed-wetting deer, do you still recognize who I am?"

"I know... Huh, I didn't wet the bed."

"You didn't pee, who drew the map on the bed sheet hanging outside, could it be your Sister Narcissus peeing?"

Xiaolu just wanted to nod.

I saw Sister Narcissus staring at her threateningly.

"Oh, I'm ignoring you."

He ran out as soon as he could, and ran back to the house with the wet sheet in his arms.

After teasing the little girl, Li Suian was in a good mood.

Quietly go out.

The auction jointly held by the three major chambers of commerce was grand and grand.

In order to prevent accidents during the auction, I don't know how many experts were hired to maintain law and order.

Li Suian thought that he came quite early, after all, it was still early before the auction, but he did not expect that the scene was already crowded with people.

A spring rain last night could not stop people's enthusiasm at all.

It was like a trade fair.

Taking advantage of the heat of the auction, countless small merchants came to set up stalls, selling everything.

If these things can't be listed in the auction house, it doesn't mean they must be bad.

The government also sent many yamen servants to maintain law and order at the scene.

While there was still time, Li Suian decided to take a quick stroll around the scene, after all, the main battlefield was still in the auction.

After scanning this circle, he really found a lot of good things.

The flame-like ore is exactly Lihuo Salt.

What a surprise, this time I don't have to travel far.

"How to sell?"

"Three silvers per catty."

The price is outrageously high.

"Is that all you have?"

If it was normal, it would be necessary to argue with him, and hit the price down high and low.

But today he came here just to throw out a lot of coins, "I want them all."

"If you think it's too little, I still have some in stock, but the price may be..."

"If you have a large quantity, the price can be increased by 20% for you. Leave an address, and I will find you later."

The man was overjoyed, "Okay~"

There was a lot of Lihuoyan, Li Suian pretended to deliver the goods back, walked around a corner and collected all Lihuoyan into the empty nest.

He was very happy when he first came and got something.

Then he turned again and continued to walk around.

Others sell bugs, animal meat, furs, talismans, books, cheat books, weapons, etc., too numerous to mention.

If you look carefully one by one, I'm afraid the auction will be over.

Seeing that many people had already entered, Li Suian did not delay and was about to enter when he suddenly smelled a unique smell of alcohol in his nostrils. I turned my footsteps instinctively, followed the faint scent of wine, and found a stall in the corner. The stall owner was a shrewd old hunter.

A few wine gourds were sparsely placed in front of him, but no one cared about them.

There was also the tree Ye Luo on the stall, but he ignored it.

Li Suian stretched out his hand to touch, and a bubble emerged.

[Spirit monkey wine: a barefoot three-eyed monkey, which collects a hundred kinds of spirit fruits in a cave, and ferments them for three years. The top-grade spiritual wine of the human ranks, drinking it by ordinary people is like burning their bodies, at severe cases they will explode and die, at light cases they will become dumbfounded. Warriors above body quenching drink it, which can increase energy. 】

Advanced spirit wine? !

Even his glazed nine-bone pork fish soup has never been advanced...

"Take it!"

Just looking at this, Li Suian is determined to take the wine, no one will do it.

Suppressing the surprise in my heart, "How much is a gourd?"

The old hunter looked at Li Suian carefully, trying to judge his identity from his attire, but Li Suian put on makeup. After dawdling for a long time, he mysteriously raised a finger.

"Okay, a tael of silver."

"Are you kidding, I said twelve taels."

"Crack~"

Li Suian didn't bother to talk nonsense with him at all, threw out a few ingots of silver, and wiped out the wine gourds in front of him. It looks like it's packed in a package, but it's already in an empty nest.

Seeing that he paid so readily, the old hunter twitched a few times. Lost money?

"Can you tell me where I found these wines?"

As soon as these words came out, the old hunter was even more convinced that he had lost money, and rolled his eyes, "One hundred taels."

Li Suian turned around and left.

"Hey, why are you leaving? If you are not satisfied, you can talk about it again."

"Things that you don't even know yourself, have nothing to do with you."

He's here to throw coins, not to be a fool!

Just after taking a few steps, he was stopped by an old man who looked like a beggar, with tattered clothes, red nose, smell of alcohol, "Brother, can I let this old man see the wine you bought just now?"

Li Suian's heart skipped a beat, and he stared arrogantly: "What brother, what wine, no!"

"Oh, it's a pity, the smell of wine that can be smelled from ten miles away is still a step late after all."

The old hunter behind him saw this scene in his eyes, and his heart was bleeding, "Dare to ask the old man, what is the mystery of the wine just now?"

The old man hiccupped, "Give me ten taels of silver, and I'll tell you."

The old hunter clutched his pockets tightly, "Don't even think about it."

"Don't you want to know what you just sold by mistake?"

The old hunter was tangled when he heard the words, but still clutched his pockets tightly.

"Unfortunately~"

The old beggar wandered away.

The old hunter was tangled, and in the end he was not willing to pay.

He thought to himself: next time I go back to the mountains, I will ask that old boy where he got the wine from.

Unknowingly, there was already an unnoticed trace of alcohol on his clothes.
