Chapter 132 Old Friends (Part 2)

The wolf crow saw Ge Zheng lying on the ground covered with water vapor in his eyes, which exuded an emotion. The wolf crow didn't know what it should be called, but he felt very familiar. He was also infected by that emotion and couldn't help but look up at the sky. The star Rudolph had not appeared yet, and the wolf crow felt a sense of air in his heart.

...

Tonight is the third night of the Adventurers’ annual auction: the Wine Carnival Night.

It was still the same venue. Today's setting was in the style of the southern mainland, with large leaves, low shrubs, and... a beautiful lady with a grass skirt and half of her white butt exposed.

Since it is called the Wine Carnival Night, then there is naturally no need to miss it. Every guest has a small wine cart around him, which prepares every kind of wine that knows the fate in the Star Refining World. However, each wine only has one cup. If you think a certain wine is good, you can own a bottle of one thousand gold coins. Although it is very expensive, the Adventurer Union guarantees value for money.

The first auction item today is a bottle of fine wine from ancient ruins. The dusty bottle is not obvious what material it is made of. However, after being identified by the nine appraisers of the Adventurers Union, the wine was over two thousand years old. No one can tell how long it took. Even if it is well sealed, only about one-third of the wine in the bottle is left. The historical value of this wine is far greater than its collection value, and only explosive owners who do not know how to taste will snatch the head and compete for this wine.

Unlike Chinese liquor, the red wine and fruit wine in Xinglian World are not as good as the longer the time. Generally speaking, after three to five years of storage, the best taste has been achieved. Of course, if there are superior conditions, long-term storage can further enhance the mellowness of the wine. However, even the better wine in the wine cellar will not be able to drink. The storage time of fruit wine is shorter.

So only a few people were competing for the bottle of ancient wine, and in the end a dwarf with ten fingers with nine gem rings bought the bottle of wine for seven million gold coins.

For those who truly love wine, buying a bottle of good wine for seven million gold coins is nothing, just like a soldier spends seven million gold coins to buy a quasi-artifact. But this bottle of wine is obviously not worth it in the eyes of people who really understand wine.

Ge Zheng watched coldly. His only purpose of coming today was to taste wine. The price of the last hidden auction item must be very high, just like the second auction night. He did not think he had the ability to bid against these well-known wealthy businessmen on the mainland.

A mixed-race girl with a lilac skin color was specially served by Ge Zheng. I have to admit that the beauty of a mixed-race child is indeed shocking. The girl has long legs and buttocks, and her figure is many times stronger than an ordinary human girl. She has a beautiful face and is much more delicate than an ordinary demon girl.

Her service was very good. As soon as Ge Zheng reached out, a glass of wine was delivered to his hands. After drinking a glass, the girl would immediately put away the empty cup.

There were more than 20 wines on the wine cart, all of which were famous wines on the road. Before the Ge Zheng’s sale was halfway through, the wine cart beside Ge Zheng was empty. He touched his mouth, and he was still feeling unsatisfied. He only had a thousand gold coins but felt a little painful.

At this moment, the girl beside her opened a bottle of wine with a "bang" and said, "Sir, this is what the gentleman over there gave you." Ge Zheng turned his head and saw a demon businessman raising his wine glass in front of him, smiling and greeting him. Beside him, there was a mysterious man in black clothes and black hat sitting. Ge Zheng remembered that he was the businessman who bought the Star of the West Land at the last auction.

Ge Zheng guessed that because of his identity as the Seven-Star Adventure King, the demon merchant invited him to drink. The wine had been opened, and it was useless to drink it. Ge Zheng tapped the table with his finger: "Pour on." The girl filled the wine glass for him. Ge Zheng picked it up and took a sip, and nodded. This was the one he liked the most among the wines he had just drunk. It seemed that the demon merchant was very considerate and actually observed secretly to see which kind of wine he liked the most.

After drinking most of the bottle of wine, the auction was over. The last stone egg was invited out. The host lifted it with his hand. It was far less amazing than the last time. A black thing was placed in the stone egg, faintly exuding a bitter fragrance. Everyone was inevitably disappointed, but Ge Zheng was shocked and his expression changed drastically.

The snake gall of the rhino-headed snake! It looks like it is quite large - it should be enough to be two kilograms together with the piece given to him by Master Aquinas last time.

The following discussion gradually sounded. Most of the wealthy businessmen here did not know this thing, but there were no shortage of knowledgeable people among their staff, who whispered to their employers in their ears.

I don’t know who it was, so I shouted: “God’s Materials…” Soon the man realized that he had lost his composure and hurriedly covered his mouth.

Ge Zheng's ears were raised: God's material? What a strange name.

No matter what name is, Ge Zheng cannot give up this thing. With these snake galls, the only three materials are left is Kurosawa Nine Seed Grass. Ge Zheng did not wait for others to bid, and was the first to raise the sign: "Twenty million gold coins." Since everyone knows that this thing is cherished, you might as well just scare them all away with a high attitude. They all know their identity as the Seven-Star Adventure King, and they may succeed.

Seeing Ge Zheng’s first bidding and a quotation of 20 million was directly revealed, many people shook their heads and put down the license plate. For most people, buying this thing is just an expensive collection, and there is no need to offend the Adventure King for it.

But there were people who would not have Ge Zheng got his wish, and a gloomy voice said: "Even if this thing is based on the market price, it is more than 70 million gold coins. It is really unkind that Lord Adventure King wants to buy it with 20 million gold coins." The man slowly raised the license plate in his hand: "30 million!"

Ge Zheng looked back and saw an ugly guy in the corner staring at him and smiling gloomyly. Ge Zheng raised the license plate in his hand again without hesitation: "Fourty million!" This is all the funds he can use.

"Fifty million!" The man bid with him slowly. He was just talking about criticizing Ge Zheng, but he was also willing to take advantage of it and was unwilling to increase the price to more than 70 million at once.

Ge Zheng gritted his teeth and mortgaged Akhama City, he could raise at least 20 million gold coins. "Sixty million!"

"Seventy million." The man seemed to be against Ge Zheng, but he refused to let go.

Ge Zheng thought in his mind that in his own identity, there should be no problem owing 20 million gold coins from the Adventurer Union. As for how many actions the Adventurer Union had to "cooperate" with the Adventurer Union because of this debt, it is too late to consider it. "80 million!"

Ge Zheng glared at the man angrily, telling him that he was determined to win.

"Ninety million." The man slowly raised his license plate, his voice was very calm, but it made Ge Zheng feel cold. "100 million!" Ge Zheng took it aside, and he bet everything, property, reputation, and 100 million were the limit.

"110 million!" The man laughed dryly, looking at Ge Zheng with a pale face, and said, "Your Excellency King, don't argue with me, I am determined to win this thing!" Ge Zheng's eyes were about to spurt fire, and he grabbed the back of the chair with one hand, and had forgotten that his injuries were still on his body. The back of the chair was crushed to pieces with force...

"Huh" Ge Zheng turned around suddenly, sat down angrily, clasped the chair handle tightly with both hands, and the veins on his arm hidden under his sleeves burst out. A blood vessel on his forehead was beating, and his forehead was shiny.

The host gave Ge Zheng a helpless look. If he knew that Ge Zheng needed this thing before, as long as he offered him a price of 70 million, the Adventurer Union would sell it to him. But now it is already at the auction site, so everything must be done according to the rules, and the Adventurer Union has no choice.

"One hundred million! Is there any bid? One hundred million for the first time, one hundred million for the second time..."

"150 million!" Suddenly a voice came out, and the ugly guy in the shadow was proud, and he was suddenly beaten by this offer. Even though everyone was a world-famous wealthy businessman in Xinglian, the high price of 150 million yuan in the year also moved them: 150 million yuan can buy a small country.

All eyes were focused on the quoter, and the one holding up the number plate in his hand was the demon businessman who invited Ge Zheng to drink.

"160 million!" The guy in the shadow gritted his teeth and shouted loudly. Before he could put down the license plate in his hand, the license plate of the demon merchant had already been raised, and there was no trace of hesitation in his voice: "Two million!"

Ge Zheng's face was gloomy. As expected, he was either a traitor or a thief. The demon merchant first invited himself to drink and show his goodwill, and then bid for something he liked. What is his purpose? If he doesn't get more than 500 million yuan in return, he will draw 200 million yuan to buy him? Ge Zheng sighed helplessly. Although he knew that the demon merchant was opening a huge conspiracy to him, he was looking forward to this conspiracy in his heart. He was even afraid that the conspiracy was not directed at him, because in that case, the snake gall would not belong to him.

For the first time since I came to this world, I felt like my fingertips were about to touch the way home. If I just passed by like this, Ge Zheng would probably be regrettably unable to sleep for three months.

The high price of 200 million scared away the ugly man in the shadow in one fell swoop. The guy snorted, wrapped his golden robe tightly, and hid in the shadow again.

"Bang" the mallet fell, and the rhino-headed snake-snake gall was sold for an astonishing price.

Halfway through the wine carnival night, the Adventurers Union arranged a carnival program for the guests, and of course the venue was not in the venue. Ge Zheng was not interested in the so-called carnival. He sat quietly on the seat where the back of the chair was crushed, and the people around him slowly left the venue, as if he was no longer in the same world as him.

Seven guests, including the demon merchants, were invited into the backstage, and the sexy girls in grass skirts also left the venue. The magic lights on the top dimmed. In the dark light, Ge Zheng's shadow seemed particularly solemn in the empty venue.

The demon merchant seemed to have sufficient funds. He walked out with an exquisite iron box for a short while. Ge Zheng glanced at it and found that there were seven precise magic locks on the iron box, and even he might not be able to open it. The demon merchant did not hide anything. He followed a few people behind him and actually walked to Ge Zheng. He walked from the backstage door to Ge Zheng, and within a short distance of thirty steps, Ge Zheng's heart was beating rapidly and he was really worried about what the consequences would be if he guessed wrongly.

The demon merchant stood in front of him, and Ge Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

"What do I need to do?" Ge Zheng raised his head and asked with a bright smile. Ge Zheng had never been so proactive in trading, and was a little flattering. It was just because of the desire in his heart, for the sake of his family and blood in another world, Ge Zheng was willing to do anything.

The demon merchant held the iron box in both hands, knocked it lightly on all sides a few times, opened the seven magic locks, and handed them to Ge Zheng: "Give it to you."

Ge Zheng was stunned. He slowly stood up and took the iron box blankly: "Give it to me? Do you have any requirements?" The demon merchant smiled slightly and shook his head: "No." "But, but this thing is worth 200 million..." Even Ge Zheng felt a little embarrassed when he suddenly accepted such a huge gift. The demon merchant bowed slightly to him and said in a backwards: "You don't have to take it to you. This is given to you by one of your old friends. I am just entrusting someone to hand it over to you."

"Hey..." Ge Zheng held the iron box in his hand, and the bitter fragrance of the rhinoceros head, snake gall slowly floated out of the iron box with the magic lock opened. The demon merchant and the mysterious man beside him slowly pushed away. Ge Zheng shouted, they had retreated to the door and turned around and left the venue.

Ge Zheng suddenly reacted and quickly chased out. The demon merchants and their group had already boarded the carriage. Ge Zheng stretched out and grabbed the mysterious man beside the demon merchants: "Wait a minute, can you tell me who the old friend in your door?" The mysterious man lowered his head, and his voice sounded a little strange: "She doesn't want you to know..." After saying that, he was a little slight, and Ge Zheng's hand was empty, and the mysterious man had already entered the carriage. The coachman shook his whip, and a crisp sound, and the carriage left quickly.

Ge Zheng was stunned when he looked at the white carriage. A fragrance suddenly floated from his nose. The alchemist's nose was very flexible. After twitching twice, Ge Zheng frowned: This smell is a bit familiar, hidden in the wind, without careful identification, it is really not easy to detect...

He suddenly woke up and raised his head. The carriage had reached the entrance of the valley. The merchandise on the carriage was walking down. Ge Zheng ran wildly and caught up before the people walked out of the valley: "Wait a minute!" Ge Zheng shouted, and the demon merchant in front stopped, spread his hands and shrugged: "Your Excellency, why are you doing this? She doesn't want to see you, you can't find her..."

Ge Zheng glanced over his entourage and found that there was no figure of that person. He sighed, lowered his head dejectedly, and his eyes fell on the iron box in his hand. His heart was filled with emotions for a moment, and he couldn't explain what it felt.
