Chapter 782 Fire Phoenix

"Okay!" Liu Xing picked up the teacup, and after smelling the fragrance, his face suddenly changed: "Isn't this the taro tea recorded in the Bamboo God inheritance? How could it be used to entertain guests?"

Taro tea is poisonous. Although the poison is not fatal, it can anesthetize people's nerves and dull their thinking. If they drink too much, they can even fall into a coma for half a month.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing burst into a cold sweat.

Although he was fine after drinking it, Little Peanut was not.

Just as he was trying to get Xiao Huasheng, Sima Yao, and Ru Ru to stop drinking tea, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

"What's going on?" Liu Xing turned his head and looked towards the entrance.

Other people who participated in the underground auction also cast their eyes in that direction.

I saw a masked woman in red, walking quickly towards the stone platform in the middle of Wutong Valley with light lotus steps.

Behind her, there are a group of beautiful girls. Although they are all covered, it can be seen from the graceful figure that they are definitely beauties.

But compared with the woman in red, she is still quite inferior.

Because people's eyes are the most vicious, the woman in red is an existence that overwhelms everyone in terms of figure and temperament.

"Liu Xing, this woman in red is the owner of Wutong Valley, Huo Fenghuang." Sima Yao whispered in Liu Xing's ear.

"How can there be anyone with the surname Huo in this world?" Liu Xing couldn't help but frowned.

"I thought so too at the beginning, but later I realized that Fire Phoenix is ​​just a code name. As for the real name of Wutonggu, no one knows." Sima Yao explained.

"So that's the case!" Liu Xing nodded slowly.

In this way, this Wutong Valley is quite mysterious.

At least a big force like the Sima family can't be found out, which is not easy.

Seeing that Huo Fenghuang led a group of girls to the stone platform, Liu Xing didn't ask any more questions, but calmed down. After all, everyone around him didn't speak. Some are not good.

"Everyone, welcome to Wutong Valley." Huo Fenghuang's crisp and pleasant voice sounded in everyone's ears. This voice seemed to have some kind of magical power, making everyone around me mesmerized, and there was such incomparable respect in their eyes.

Liu Xing didn't notice this scene at first, until Little Peanut poked him with his arm, he came back to his senses, this Fire Phoenix is ​​not simple.

But since Little Peanut is fine, he doesn't want to worry about it anymore.

After all, he didn't know Huo Fenghuang's intentions. Once he acted rashly, he might be very passive later.

And with the end of Fire Phoenix's speech, the first round of auction began.

The auction is some expensive antiques.

The lowest starting price is above one million.

Liu Xing was not interested in antiques, so after talking to Sima Yao, he led Little Peanut to the toilet.

The toilet is very quiet, no one else.

Liu Xing was going to make things easier.

Lin Wuxie suddenly appeared by his side out of thin air.

This move not only frightened Liu Xing, but also frightened Peanut.

"How did you come in?" Liu Xing smiled bitterly and looked at Lin Wuxie.

Wutong Valley is full of weirdness, even if Lin Wuxie wears an invisibility robe, it would be difficult to hide his figure. This is not a joke, but it can be seen from the flat terrain around him.

In addition, the surrounding guards are tightly guarded, and there are hidden agencies.

If it were Lin Wuxie, he would have to weigh it all if he wanted to calmly enter the Wutong Valley.

"I have the pass that Fire Phoenix gave me." Lin Wuxie replied softly.

"Ah?" Liu Xing was stunned upon hearing this.

"Don't be surprised, I met Huo Fenghuang decades ago." Lin Wuxie smiled teasingly.

"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" Liu Xing gave Lin Wuxie a white look.

If he had known the inside story earlier, he would have felt much more at ease about Wutong Valley.

"You didn't even ask!" Lin Wuxie glanced at the night: "I won't talk to you anymore, I have other things to do, before you come back, you should pay more attention to your own safety."

"Wait, I just want to ask, is this fire phoenix an enemy?" Liu Xing couldn't help asking.

"No, they are friends." Lin Wuxie replied.

"Then why should we pay attention to safety?" Liu Xing was puzzled.

"You'll know later, I won't be able to tell for a while." Seeing footsteps coming from far to near outside, Lin Wuxie quickly put on her hat, and then disappeared without a trace.

Liu Xing had no choice but to tell Little Peanut to stand where he was and not to wander around. After the convenience was over, he led him back to Sima Yao's side.

The first round of auctions continues.

The sound of bidding was louder and louder.

It seems normal here, but Liu Xing knows.

It was the people from Wutong Valley who tampered with the tea.

Otherwise, the representatives of these domestic forces would not be so crazy to bid for these antiques.

Just as he wanted to see where Huo Fenghuang was, a girl in Tsing Yi appeared in front of him: "Excuse me, are you Liu Xing?"

"Yes." Liu Xing replied.

"My master is here to invite you." The girl in Tsing Yi stretched out her hand and made an inviting gesture.

"Your master is..." Liu Xing asked with a frown.

"Fire Phoenix." The girl in Tsing Yi smiled.

"Okay!" Liu Xing knew that he couldn't go, and after talking to Sima Yao, he followed behind the girl in Tsing Yi, holding Xiao Peanut.

After leaving Wutong Valley, we came to the door of a low wooden structure house.

"Master, Liu Xing has been brought here." The girl in Tsing Yi shouted softly.

"Let him in!" Huo Fenghuang's crisp and pleasant voice came from the short house.

"Yes!" The girl in Tsing Yi pushed the door open and entered.

Liu Xing led Little Peanut and followed behind.

The short house is clean and tidy. On the wooden table in the middle, there are a lot of ancient books. The two books on the top are actually related to the craftsmanship of the bamboo craftsman.

"Sit, all sit." The veiled Fire Phoenix came up from the window seat, with a faint smile in his eyes.

After the girl in Tsing Yi poured Liu Xing a cup of tea, she turned around and left.

Liu Xing didn't drink tea, but looked at Huo Fenghuang seriously: "What do you want me to drink sweet taro tea for?"

"Chichi... You are a descendant of the mechanism art line, and you have the ability to be invulnerable to all poisons, so you are still afraid of sweet taro tea?" Huo Fenghuang couldn't help laughing, his big eyes became crescents: "Don't worry! The taro tea you drink is not poisonous and beneficial."

Liu Xing didn't believe it, but he didn't say much.

Little Peanut was frightened, he shrank behind Liu Xing, tilted his head and looked at Huo Fenghuang.

"Forget it! I know you don't believe me." Huo Fenghuang took off her veil, revealing a delicate and beautiful face: "This time I called you here with the consent of Senior Lin, and I want you to do me a favor."

"Oh?" Liu Xing was a little surprised.

Senior Lin actually agreed to let him help Huo Fenghuang, why does this matter seem a bit wrong!

As for Huo Fenghuang's beautiful appearance, he was not at all tempted.

Because after a few decades, those big stars on TV, which one doesn't have a very beautiful face, he has seen a lot, and he will naturally become numb.

"I heard that you have a lot of research on perpetual motion machines. I want you to take a look at the scroll of bamboo slips in my hand. Does it record the production method of perpetual motion machines?" Regarding Liu Xing's reaction, Huo Fenghuang was obviously a little confused. Unexpectedly, but didn't say much, but rummaged around on the wooden table, and finally took out a scroll of damaged bamboo slips.

Liu Xing looked over, and soon came to a conclusion: "It is a method of making a perpetual motion machine, but it is only one of the tens of thousands of processes. Even if you translate it, it will not be of much use."

Although he didn't know the traditional characters above, he could confirm that it was related to the perpetual motion machine. After all, he had seen many such bamboo slips and ancient books in the Bamboo God Cave.

"Are you sure?" Huo Fenghuang was taken aback.

"Sure." Liu Xing nodded.

It can be seen that this fire phoenix has a very close connection with the bamboo god.

In this case, there is no need for him to hide the perpetual motion machine.

"Then are you looking at the content recorded on this silk, is it useful?" After hesitating for a while, Fire Phoenix found a roll of silk from the hidden compartment under the wooden table.

This silk is rolled up, and after being unrolled, it is at least ten meters long.

Liu Xing leaned over and saw that the contents were related to the production method of the perpetual motion machine. He couldn't help but gasped. He turned to look at Huo Fenghuang: "What exactly do you want me to come here for?"

"I... I'm short of money recently, and I want to sell some things in my hand, silk is one of them, but I don't know whether the content on this silk is true or not, so I came to ask you. "Huo Fenghuang seemed very unwilling to tell the inside story, and his voice was so small that Liu Xing could hardly hear it.

But even so, Liu Xing still heard it clearly. He was stunned for a moment and then asked in doubt: "You, Wutong Valley, auction valuable things shipped from all over the world every month. If this is the case, why are you short of money? A tenth of the auction fee is enough to make you a billionaire."

Taking ten thousand steps back, even if Huo Fenghuang is short of money.

Then you can't sell the items left by the bamboo god!

After all, the Liu family had tried it before, and they couldn't sell it for much.

"Hey! You don't know." Huo Fenghuang sighed softly: "I should not be short of money, but this year I failed in business investment, and the money invested overseas has not been recovered, so it became The current situation.

If you don't auction off the valuable things in your hands, I'm afraid you won't be able to sustain it at all. "

"Then the auction money is used up? Are you going to auction Wutong Valley in the end?" Liu Xing asked with a smile.

"This..." Huo Fenghuang didn't know how to answer.

If she could do business, it wouldn't be what it is now.

In a word, this shopping mall is like a battlefield, which makes her really powerless.

Liu Xing said: "The silk in your hand and the bamboo slips from before are quite old, but I estimate that they will only be auctioned for hundreds of thousands, so I advise you not to auction them, because they may be of great use in the future."
