"Speaking of which, Mr. Du, why did you take this thing out? To save your face, I'll take the six thousand."
For these people, less than 100 million is not a big sum, and it is normal to spend money to buy fun.
Mr. Du smiled bitterly and thanked everyone profusely.
"Ten thousand, I want it."
Chu Ming's voice came out again, surprising everyone. This man had already taken away a skin beast, and almost took away the precious elixir. The financial resources alone had moved many people, and some even speculated.
assumed his identity.
Chu Ming deliberately sounded indifferent, but his heart was in his throat.
Mr. Du was also shocked, and thought to himself, "Does he recognize this key?"
But he didn't show it and continued to greet with a smile: "It's already ten thousand, there are still people who want it."
Everyone sneered, who would spend ten thousand to buy a strong and ancient broken key? If it was of any use, someone would ask for the price. But even the Lan family, a place specializing in identifying treasures, didn't see anything. It can only show that this
The key is useless.
As expected, Chu Ming successfully obtained it.
The auction house is over.
Under the guidance of the woman, Chu Ming came to the room with a strong aroma of books. Mr. Du waited with a wry smile and some apologies. His attitude changed obviously and he went up to him: "Young hero, atone for your sins. I really feel sorry for you."
Need this."
Chu Ming sat down and said with a smile: "I don't want the skin and the key. The total is only over 200 million, and the rest is nearly 500 million. Chu doesn't want it."
"What!"
Mr. Du was shocked. That was not a small amount. It was 500 million. At the same time, he was extremely ashamed. Originally, he had been prepared to return to his family and be punished. You know, if he was asked to take out 700 million at once, it would be absolutely unacceptable.
Impossible.
Chu Ming's step back made him very embarrassed: "Young hero... I..."
Chu Ming waved his hand: "Mr. Chu has some history with your Lan family. Let's drop this matter."
"This..." Mr. Du's face turned red: "In that case, I owe you a favor." After pondering for a moment, Mr. Du said decisively: "If you need anything, young hero, you can come to the Lan family to find me, and I will repay you."
Such a favor."
Chu Ming didn't say anything, then took the skin and the key and left.
He did not check the key immediately, but sent it directly into the pagoda. The pagoda roared, and a sad emotion spread throughout Chu Ming's body. It did not fall to the ground, but floated in the center of the pagoda, exuding a
A mysterious luster.
Other than that, there is nothing unusual.
But Chu Ming was certain that the key was indeed related to the pagoda, but he didn't know the specific connection yet.
Taking the skin and animal skin, he returned to the blacksmith shop. The old man in the blacksmith shop was pacing back and forth, obviously very anxious. He had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Chu Ming returning, he hurriedly greeted him and said excitedly: "Young hero,
How's it going?"
Chu Ming didn't say anything, and with a flash of light, a light blue animal skin appeared in his hand.
The color of the animal skin was extremely dark, closer to black at first glance, and it was as light as paper in his hand. However, Chu Ming pulled with all his strength, and only stretched the animal skin to a person's length, but there was no sign of breaking.
.
"Okay, okay!" The old man stroked the leather as if stroking his lover, his eyes sparkling: "Young hero, in addition to the leather, you also need an iron product to fix the scabbard.
There are some good iron products in my shop around here, I'll make the decision for you, how about it."
Hearing these words, Chu Ming's eyes flashed, and light appeared again. In his hand, there was an extra black iron piece, the Heart Protector Iron!
It was the heart-protecting iron I won after fighting with Li Teng!
"What do you think of this?" Chu Ming handed it over.
When he started to take it, the old man's whole body trembled: "This... what kind of material is this? It's so light, and the high density of iron in this servant, in terms of grade alone, will definitely not be worse than the Skin Beast. It's a perfect match. This is simply a perfect match."
It matches!"
The old man was quite excited, but Chu Ming smiled.
The old man held these two things tremblingly, his eyes were a little red. He looked at Chu Ming and said in a daze: "With these two things, I promise the young hero that I will definitely make a scabbard that will be the best since I was born. Otherwise
How can you be worthy of such a treasure!"
He laughed and entered the blacksmith's shop behind the shop, while Chu Ming had nothing to do, but wandered around Black Rock City.
Black Rock City can't be said to be big, but it's not too small either. There's basically a blacksmith shop every three or two steps away. There's a constant stream of people shouting and selling, but it's very orderly. It's the same as the unmanaged one that Chu Ming went to last time.
There are two completely different feelings in Poliang City.
Chu Ming walked and stopped outside a restaurant called Fengxue.
"Snow and wine, it seems that these two things have a great impact on me." Chu Ming smiled faintly and walked in.
As soon as he came in, a strong smell of ink and rice paper hit his face. The smell was very strong, even overpowering the aroma of wine. Right in front, there was a huge landscape painting. It was so lifelike that Chu Ming couldn't take his eyes away. Then he entered, looking from all directions.
There are poems all over it and pictures hanging on it.
There are not many tables and chairs, only a few five tables, and now they are all full.
"Is this place a restaurant?" Chu Ming could only feel that he had entered the wrong academy. Most of the drinkers at the tables were dressed as scholars. Although there were wine bottles beside them, they all frowned and lowered their heads.
Some of them were writing with brushes.
Some tilted their heads, thinking...
"Objective, is this your first time here?" At this time, a waiter came up. Even this waiter looked bookish and did not look like a person. All this made Chu Ming feel very strange. He focused on forging here.
There is such a place in this city.
This place is like a paradise.
Chu Ming nodded and indicated to the young man that this was his first time here.
The young boy smiled lightly and led Chu Ming in very politely: "Then let me tell you objectively, this store is called Fengxue, you are right, it is indeed a tavern, but our tavern is different, more
Prepared for scholars, look at this."
He pointed to a poem and said: "This poem has been exchanged for three jars of wine with us."
"You're looking at it." He pointed to another one: "This landscape painting is worth ten jars of wine here."
"Interesting." Chu Ming said: "If you exchange poems and pictures for wine, aren't you risking your life?"
The young man smiled and explained: "I'm overthinking things objectively. Today's folk customs emphasize martial arts over literature. Our boss is a literati. When he was at his lowest, he opened this wine shop for scholars. If you have the ability,
It doesn't matter if we drink all our wine, but if you came here for a drink, I'm sorry, you can't afford the wine here."
