Chapter 197 The First Item, Sword Demon's Notes

Behind Xiao Leiyin Temple.

Another group of people came with long swords on their backs. They were the masters of the Sword-Forging Villa.

These people were serious and bowed to Gong Xiping and Jiang Chenyu, then strode towards the north gate.

Afterwards, various miscellaneous characters or forces came, but none of them were qualified for Gong Xiping and Jiang Chenyu to actively welcome them.

It was not until a group of red-robed monks with unusual figures and appearances appeared that Gong Xiping and Jiang Chenyu landed together and greeted them from a distance.

"Who are these people?"

One person asked doubtfully.

The knowledgeable person next to him said, "You haven't heard of the famous Dachan Temple?"

"I have heard of it, but the Great Zen Temple is not a hidden sect. How could it be welcomed by City Lord Jiang and Chief Gong Xiping? It seems that they are more respectful than they were to Zen Master Fo Lian and Master Mu Hongwei."

"You don't understand this. Who says that Dachan Temple is not a secluded sect? Dachan Temple is not only secluded, but also out of the world. I don't know how much of the entire Yuzhou is their property, and how many forces, sects, and cities rely on them. How can we not be respectful? Other secluded sects rarely participate in the secular world, but Dachan Temple specializes in participating in the secular world."

The person who spoke was an octogenarian. He was quite powerful and it seemed that he had experienced a lot, otherwise he would not know so much.

Zhang Lingshan thought to himself that he had heard of this Dachan Temple before, and it was indeed extraordinary.

The unusual thing is that it is extremely shameless.

It is said that the founder of Dachan Temple, Shi Xin, and Tianzong Gongye Changgeng were close friends. However, when Gongye Changgeng was hunted down and intercepted by other states because of Xuanjin, Shi Xin not only did not help him, but instead cooperated with outsiders to plot against Gongye Changgeng.

Afterwards, after the Tian Sect was defeated and transformed into the Tianmo Sect, the strong men from other states divided up all the treasures such as the Xuanjin, and the remaining ones were all snatched away by the Dachan Temple led by Shi Xin.

The Sword Demon's Notes and the Stick Demon's Notes were all circulated after being snatched from the Great Zen Temple.

This is the history of the rise of Dachan Temple.

How can such a rubbish founder raise any good disciples?

This sect’s style was problematic from the beginning.

But the problem of work style did not prevent them from becoming the top-notch sect in Yuzhou.

On the contrary, it was precisely because of their shamelessness that they were able to grab the Tianzong inheritance in the first place, rise all the way, and become today's top famous sect.

It also transformed itself from a rogue sect into a high and mighty hidden sect.

However, unlike other hidden sects, they did not forget their original business and did not really hide away from the world. Instead, they continued to call the shots in the secular world. Their power grew stronger and stronger, and they seemed to be on the verge of dominating Yuzhou.

Do you think Jiang Chenyu and Gong Xiping dare not greet this shameless, resourceful, and top-notch sect with so many experts in a serious manner?

Compared to the Daoguang Sect and the Jinguang Sect who are far away in the sky and have no concern for the secular world, these monks from the Dachan Temple who can enter the world and kill people anytime and anywhere are the most awe-inspiring existences.

"I heard that the Buddha of Jinguang Sect has come to pity the little boy this time?"

The leader of the Dachan Temple was a monk with a face full of flesh, who looked ferocious and evil. His voice was as loud as a bell, and although he was chatting with Jiang Chenyu, his voice spread in all directions and everyone could hear it clearly.

Some of the weaker ones even had blood oozing from their ears, but they were still unaware and just stood there in a daze.

"Cover your ears, quickly! This man is the Thunder Sound Master. His voice is like thunder. He is a natural sonic genius. He doesn't even need to use his power. The sound he makes when he speaks is too much for ordinary people to bear. It is said that his parents were shocked to death by his crying as a baby. Later, the Great Zen Temple found out and adopted him."

The old man was indeed a representative of the knowledgeable and intelligent. He immediately identified the man's origin and kindly reminded everyone.

"Oh?"

Venerable Leiyin suddenly looked over and locked his eyes on the old man.

It turns out that not only does the sound it makes have miraculous effects, its hearing is also different from that of ordinary people, and it can actually recognize the old man's voice at once.

The old man turned pale with horror and quickly lowered his head, not daring to meet his gaze.

“I didn’t expect that among these ordinary people, there are actually people who have heard of my name, hehe.”

Venerable Leiyin seemed to be in a good mood. After laughing a few times, he followed Jiang Chenyu and Gong Xiping to the north gate and entered the auction hall.

The old man didn't breathe a sigh of relief until they left.

The temper of a master is mysterious and unpredictable. If he is happy, he may give you an opportunity. If he is unhappy, a roar from him can make you bleed to death.

The most important thing is that you have no idea which words will make people happy.

It is very likely that a statement that made people happy yesterday may offend them the next day.

In short, serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. When you stay with these strong men, you must be careful in what you say and do.

I am also a talkative person and I have to remind everyone.

If Venerable Leiyin had not been in a good mood today, he might have died because of his words.

"Thank you for your reminder, otherwise my brother's eardrum would have been shattered."

A woman wearing a black veil suddenly cupped her hands and thanked the old man sincerely, and then said: "I don't know your name, senior. We, the Lu family brothers and sisters, will repay you."

"What big name? I'm just a nobody. Just call me the old cowherd."

The old man couldn't see the woman's face, but seeing that the young man had a handsome appearance and looked honest and simple, he thought that the two men knew how to be grateful, so he casually told them their pseudonyms.

Hearing this, Sister Lu said solemnly: "We brothers and sisters will remember this."

The cowherd old man smiled slightly and didn't take it to heart.

There are more people coming and going these days, and it’s no big deal if we just meet each other by chance and remember each other.

The world is so big, and it is unknown whether everyone can encounter it after the auction is over.

"Kong Dagui, the Demon Chief of Yucheng Town."

Someone suddenly spoke.

Zhang Lingshan looked carefully and saw that it was indeed Kong Dagui who came, and with him came the leader of the hidden guards, Sikong Wanjin.

However, Sikong Wanjin is a secret guard after all, and the emphasis is on the word "secret", so not many people know him.

"People from Jiangcheng Town Demon Division are here too."

There is humanity again.

As expected, after Kong Dagui and the other man, there were three co-governors: Tai Shuyan, Yuan Tu and Zhao Junshan.

No matter how much discord they have among themselves, they appear to be very harmonious on the outside and outsiders cannot notice anything unusual.

But Zhang Lingshan knew that these three people would immediately go their separate ways as soon as they entered the auction hall.

Because we are not on the same path at all.

"Hmm? The smell of the Green Lotus Heart Sutra."

Zhang Lingshan's heart suddenly moved, and his eyes fell on a woman in a green floral dress. He secretly took note of her and decided to find a chance to refine her into energy after the auction.

crunch.

The gate behind me suddenly opened.

Everyone turned around and saw a smiling figure of a wealthy businessman walking out.

"He is the richest man in Jiangcheng!"

"The hand that turned the sky upside down, Xu Zhongyin, Xu the richest man!"

"Mr. Xu is here. This auction hall was built by Mr. Xu. Let's make way for him."

Everyone hurriedly made way for Xu Zhongyin to walk over with a swagger.

With Xu Zhongyin's status, it was impossible for him to queue up at the South Gate. He went straight to the North Gate as if he was going back home.

Zhang Lingshan followed immediately.

"Hey, why are you following me?"

Xu Zhongyin asked warily, feeling that this boy had bad intentions as he was following him so closely.

Zhang Lingshan said: "I have admired the richest man for a long time and want to learn from him. If I can follow the richest man, even if I do nothing all day and just listen to him talk, I will be very happy."

"You kid..." Xu Zhongyin and Zhang Lingshan had also experienced life and death, so they understood it immediately and shook their heads speechlessly: "My box has already been reserved. Since you are so sincere, the box next to me will be given to you."

"Thank you, Mr. Xu!"

Zhang Lingshan's face was full of gratitude.

After the two of them had agreed, they entered the auction hall one after the other.

"Mr. Xu, please show us the deed."

Although the guard was very polite, he still stopped Xu Zhongyin.

Xu Zhongyin was not angry. He took out the deed from his arms, handed it to him, and strode over.

Zhang Lingshan did not wait for the guards to stop him, and took the initiative to give the deed to the other party.

The man said, "What's your name? Please register your name."

Zhang Lingshan said: "Just call me a shepherd boy."

He gave this nickname to the old man after hearing him call himself the Cowherd.

The guard was not surprised. He handed him a card with the words "Shepherd Boy" on it and said, "I wonder if you plan to stay in the private room or find a seat in the main hall on the first floor."

"Box."

"Second or third floor?"

"Which box was Mr. Xu in just now? I'll just be next to him. I want to get some of Mr. Xu's wealth!"

"Okay," the guard said, "but if there's someone next door, you'll have to choose someone else."

After saying that, he immediately led the way and soon arrived at the box on the third floor.

After all, Xu Zhongyin is the richest man and he built the palace himself, so he must stand high and have a good view. Not to mention that he keeps the best for himself, his position is definitely not bad.

The main hall is circular, but the connecting parts, where the stairs go up and down, are blocked by walls.

Xu Zhongyin is in the box on the east side near the stairs, so there is only one next door.

There was no one there.

"The shepherd is really lucky. There is no one here. So is the shepherd sure he lives here?"

the guard asked.

Zhang Lingshan nodded: "Yes. Live. How many Nanhai jades."

"The third-floor box is worth ten Nanhai jades."

"So expensive?"

Zhang Lingshan was speechless. Just for a private room, they wanted ten Nanhai jades. This was just robbery.

The guard said, "If you think it's expensive, you can stay in the private room on the second floor. It only costs three South Sea jades. As for the main hall on the first floor, a seat is provided free of charge to customers who have signed the contract."

"No, this one will do."

Zhang Lingshan reached into his arms, took out ten South China Sea jades and handed them to the other party.

After receiving it, the guard immediately took out a jade token and inserted it into a gap on the door of the room.

crunch.

The door opened immediately.

The guard gestured, "Once you enter, you will only have one chance to open the room from the inside. If you leave halfway and the doorplate breaks, you will never be able to enter again. Please be aware of this."

"Okay, I understand. Thanks for leading the way."

"You're welcome, this is what we should do."

crunch.

When Zhang Lingshan closed the door, he heard a click, as if something was stuck.

It seems to be the mechanism that the guard mentioned.

Now the door can only be opened from the inside, and the door plate breaks when it is opened.

But this is not the point.

The key point is that after the mechanism was turned on, the room was immediately filled with a faint mist.

However, the moisture does not make people feel sticky or wet. Instead, it makes people feel relaxed and refreshed.

In addition, when Zhang Lingshan practiced his skills and used the pores all over his body to absorb the moisture, he found that his energy points had increased.

"It seems that it is not poisonous, but beneficial to the human body, just like the health-preserving foods such as Golden Silk Three Treasures Tea and Six-Fu Cake."

Zhang Lingshan nodded secretly.

This is probably the bonus effect of buying a box with ten pieces of South China Sea jade.

Not bad.

Although the energy points increased were not many, considering his current income, it was just a drop in the bucket.

But as long as it can be improved, it's good for the body anyway.

bang bang.

There was a sudden noise from the west wall.

In this direction, Xu Zhongyin's box is next door.

Zhang Lingshan looked carefully and found that there was an illusion of Xu Zhongyin in the wall.

Although it was not as clear as the stone pillars in Xu Zhongyin's house, it could be seen from the shadow that Xu Zhongyin pinched his lips, meaning that he should not talk nonsense and should be careful.

This phantom only lasted for a moment and then disappeared quickly, as if it was afraid of being discovered.

Zhang Lingshan sat there, motionless, as if he hadn't seen anything, thinking in his heart: "Old Xu didn't remind me when he was at his house, but now he suddenly reminds me. Did he find something in the box? Sure enough, this Nanhai Chamber of Commerce is not a good thing. The reputation is pure bullshit."

As long as there are enough benefits, word of mouth doesn’t matter.

Isn't the purpose of having a good reputation to earn benefits? If the benefits are great enough, then what's the harm in destroying the reputation?

And as far as Zhang Lingshan knew, the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce released the news of the auction of South China Sea sandalwood and deliberately lured the hidden sects over. There must be a purpose.

As for the purpose, we don’t know yet, but it’s always better to be more cautious.

In addition, improving your strength is of utmost importance!

Zhang Lingshan sat up straight and looked through the transparent window to the bottom of the hall.

I saw that the tens of thousands of seats in the hall were already full, while around the periphery, there were still many people who didn't even have a seat, but were all looking forward to it.

On the one hand, you can see the grand spectacle, watch the excitement, and have something to brag about in the future.

Secondly, when the auction starts to warm up, some ordinary items will be auctioned, and they can just bid for them and maybe buy them.

"The auspicious time has arrived. The auction has officially begun. Please close the door."

A voice sounded loudly.

crunch.

The huge palace door was tightly closed, but the hall was still bright and not stuffy, with a breeze blowing.

This is all the work of the richest man Xu Zhongyin. Who wouldn’t admire him?
No wonder Xu Zhongyin was asked to build the auction hall himself.

"My dear friends, since you have come from afar, I will not waste your time. I will now announce the first lot, the Sword Demon's Notebook."

A graceful young woman walked up to the platform and said straight to the point, "Don't think that this knife demon's notebook is an ordinary thing that is not worthy of being presented in a high-class hall. But today's notebook is different. The first page of this notebook is the latest one written, and it has the artistic conception of cutting without any sequelae!"
