In fact, Shen Nian had already had doubts in his heart as early as the last time he obtained the Tianxin Curse.

However, he tried to communicate with Tongding at that time, but received no response, so the matter was dropped.

But, this time...

Shen Nian really felt a little creepy. When he thought about the existence of a consciousness deep in his mind, he felt a chill down his spine.

He suppressed the discomfort in his heart and shouted several times in his mind, but Tongding still didn't respond.

"Could it be that I'm really overthinking it?"

Shen Nian was a little doubtful whether his guess was true.

Normally, how could a bronze tripod give birth to self-awareness?

But, how to explain his experience?

After a while, Shen Nian's mood gradually calmed down.

He didn't want to pay attention to the bronze tripod.

At least, now, this bronze tripod has brought him no harm.

On the contrary, I gave him a lot of help.

The rest can only wait until later.

After all, now he can't even drive the bronze tripod out of his sea of ​​consciousness.

In addition, there is a more important point. The appearance of the bronze tripod must be related to the tripod-shaped jade pendant. The tripod-shaped jade pendant was most likely left to him by his grandfather, and the latter would naturally not be able to harm him.

After thinking no more, Shen Nian started practicing.

During this period of time, he has been practicing the Tianxin Curse and found that it is not only a simple method of cultivating the state of mind, but also can improve mental strength.

Now, when he closes his eyes, he can clearly perceive everything within half a meter of himself, which is more vivid than seeing it directly with the naked eye.

Especially some subtle details, such as the gravel on the ground, the dust floating in the air, and the lines on them can be clearly seen.

This is the effect caused by the external release of mental power to a certain extent.

However, right now, his mental strength is still too weak and he can only move half a meter away.

But he believes that as long as he persists in practicing, this scope will gradually expand.

Until one day, the entire city was shrouded in it.

He even imagined that one day in the future, his spiritual power would be able to envelop the entire world, and he would be able to overlook the world and know everything while sitting at home.

Of course, he is still too far away from that step now.

As evening approached, Shen Nian finished his practice and called Scar over.

He was about to leave Hangzhou, so Scar and others naturally had to make other arrangements.

Furthermore, if he wants to develop in Yangzhou City, he will definitely not be able to do it on his own.

During this period, he was quite satisfied with the performance of Scar and others, so he planned to develop them into his first team in Yangzhou City.

However, Scar's younger brothers are basically locals in Hangzhou and have their own homes here. Whether they are willing to leave their hometown and follow him to Yangzhou City is still unknown.

It was precisely for this reason that he called Dao Scar over and asked him to ask his brothers' opinions. If they were willing to go to Yangzhou City, they could go with him.

If you don't want to, that's okay, just stay in Hangzhou and sell medicine as before.

Of course, he has no elixir in his hand now.

When he arrived in Yangzhou City, he planned to think of another way to collect more medicinal materials to make elixirs.

In any case, when he practices, he is burning money, so it is naturally impossible for him to stop making money.

"Young Master, don't worry, no matter where you go, I will follow you! As for my brothers, I will also ask for their opinions and I will give you an answer tomorrow!"

After listening to his story, Scar said solemnly.

Shen Nian waved his hand, "Don't be so anxious. For those who want to develop with me, just wait half a month and take them to Yangzhou City!"

Scar shook his head and said: "Sir, it won't take so long..."

Shen Nian interrupted him, "After all, you are away from home, so you have to explain it clearly to your family, right? The same goes for you, spend more time with your family, I'm not in a hurry!"

Scar scratched his head, "Well... I have no family, I am an orphan."

Hearing this, Shen Nian was stunned for a moment.

Only then did he realize that although Scar had gained his trust, he didn't know much about Scar, and he didn't even know the latter's real name.

Thinking of this, he asked: "What is your real name? I can't always call you Scar, right?"

Scar smiled heartily and said: "Master, my real name is Li Dadao. Just call me Scar as usual. It sounds cordial."

Shen Nian smiled bitterly and nodded helplessly.

Indeed, in comparison, "Scar" is more pleasant to shout. As for the big knife...

He shook his head and did not dwell too much on this matter. He looked at Scar and continued: "This half month will be regarded as a holiday for you. After half a month, you will take people to Yangzhou City. Find me and I will assign you new tasks."

Scar nodded quickly, "Don't worry, I will take care of it."

…

On the last night after leaving Hangzhou, Shen Nian went to Zhao Xun's home as a guest at the time agreed in advance.

Zhao Xun's wife's name is Miao Yuerong, and they have a son named Zhao Xiao'an, who is already in elementary school.

When he first met Miao Yuerong, Shen Nian was shocked for a long time.

It is hard to imagine that Zhao Xun, who weighs almost 300 pounds, has a slim and beautiful wife.

Moreover, Miao Yuerong was also good at cooking, which was no worse than the chefs in five-star hotels. Shen Nian gave him a thumbs up when he ate.

He finally understood why Zhao Xun was so fat.

Eating so well every day would make anyone fat!

After returning home, Shen Nian sat in the living room all night.

He didn't sleep all night.

Early the next morning, he carried his parents' memorial tablets on his back and boarded a plane to Hangzhou.

What he didn't know was that just as the plane took off, in a yard on the outskirts of Hangzhou, an old man was sitting on a bamboo chair, looking at the blue sky, murmuring to himself.

"The hidden dragon emerges from the abyss and steps onto the sky!"

…

Bowman Court Auction House.

The world's number one auction house has a branch in each of the nine main cities of Xia Kingdom.

Moreover, each branch is built in the center of the nine major cities, covering a very large area, enough to accommodate 100,000 people to participate in the auction at the same time.

As for the interior decoration, there is no need to mention it. At this moment, Shen Nian has been deeply shocked.

He stood in front of the main entrance of the auction house, looking at the behemoth in front of him, with countless emotions in his heart.

He thought that during this period of time in Hangzhou, he had seen the world of the upper class, but when he got here, he felt like a country bumpkin.

Not to mention anything else, it was the security guard at the door that made him feel speechless.

All of them are warriors.

The weakest person has reached the early stage of Ming Jin, and the strongest person has reached the late stage of Ming Jin.

Let me ask warriors to serve as security guards. Where else can you have such confidence?

Even the Warriors Association can't do it, right?

Before Rao Shi came, Zhao Xun had already told him that Baomeng Pavilion Auction House had a great background, and he was also shocked by the scene in front of him.

"Baomeng Pavilion Auction House..."

Shen Nian raised his head and glanced at the six characters on the top of the magnificent building, with a gleam in his eyes.

Then, walked in.

Before coming, Zhao Xun gave him a ticket.

Baomeng Pavilion Auction House will hold auctions every once in a while, and only those with tickets can enter.

However, an ordinary ticket is worth one hundred thousand.

As for the VIP tickets, they are worth millions, and they cannot be bought with money.

What Shen Nian holds in his hand is a VIP ticket.

It was Zhao Xun who used his own connections to help him get one.

Inside the auction house, there are three floors.

The bottom floor is similar to a movie theater, with nearly 100,000 seats distributed. Those with ordinary tickets can only sit here.

The middle floor is for VIP seats.

A circle of high platforms was built around the edge of the entire venue, with some sofas and booths placed on it.

The auction house also provides drinks and cakes.

As for the top floor, it is where the auction items are stored. Only after you have photographed the items can you receive your auction items under the leadership of the staff.

At this moment, Shen Nian was led by a beautiful woman in cheongsam to the third floor of the auction house.

The auction hasn't started yet, so naturally he is not here to collect the items, but intends to consign the items.

Baomengge Auction House has dozens of branches across the country, and hundreds of auctions are held every year. Naturally, it is impossible for them to provide all the items themselves, and they also provide consignment. Serve.
