Ran Yi smiled, then waved his hand and said, "Even if I tell you, what's the use? Even if you find him, what can you do?"
Hearing this, Ge Zhonglin's expression became serious, and he put down his wine glass and asked: "You don't want to tell me that the person who auctioned the holy chestnut is a master, right?"
In Ge Zhonglin's view, the auctioneer probably obtained the holy chestnut accidentally, because it was impossible for the master to auction such a precious thing.
If you get it accidentally, then if you find this person, you may find the location of Shengli. This is a very attractive thing for anyone!
"Yes." Ran Yi nodded and said.
"How is that possible, old guy, please don't lie to me." Ge Zhonglin said in disbelief.
Not only did he not believe it, but the two young men following him also had doubts on their faces.
Because there is no possibility of such a thing.
Although the Supreme Master is powerful, there is still a legendary divine realm that is the pursuit of every Supreme Master.
And Shengli is their greatest hope in pursuing the divine realm. Who would put their hope up for auction?
And how could a big shot like Ji Shi be short of money?
"Although I don't know the reason, he may indeed be a master. This is why I don't want you to go to him. I know your bad temper very well. If there is a problem between you and him,
If there is conflict, my future life will lose its fun." Ran Yi said.
Ran Yi's so-called fun, he had told Ge Zhonglin a long time ago that he wanted to compete with Ge Zhonglin to see who could live longer.
So when he said he had lost his fun, Ge Zhonglin understood that he was afraid that he would offend the master and lose his life.
But Ge Zhonglin is still reluctant to believe that the auctioneer is a master, because this is something that makes no sense at all.
"Are you really not kidding me? But how could Jishi be short of money?" Ge Zhonglin asked in confusion.
"Didn't I say it? I don't know the reason, but his level is definitely not comparable to that of your Ge family." After saying this, Ran Yi paused for a moment and continued: "You are also a very smart person.
, don’t you know the origin of the holy chestnut? Do you think there are holy chestnuts outside the dark forest?”
Ge Zhonglin's expression was solemn. Apart from the Dark Forest, he had indeed never heard of holy chestnuts in other places. Moreover, it was rumored that the growth conditions of holy chestnuts require the breath of powerful alien beasts as nutrients. This is why holy chestnuts can help people improve their realm.
reason.
"Hey." Ge Zhonglin sighed. He had to believe what his old friend said, but he was a little disappointed in his heart. He thought he could get more valuable things through his relationship with Ran Yi, but now it seems like it was a daydream.
How could an ordinary person obtain the Holy Chestnut?
"You don't have to sigh. With the financial resources of your Ge family, it is not impossible to get this holy chestnut. Is it possible that you are not satisfied with getting one?" Ran Yi said.
"It's natural to be satisfied if you can get it, but this time, I'm afraid it's not as simple as you think. The entire imperial family is here. I'm afraid my Ge family is powerless." Ge Zhonglin said with a helpless look.
Compared with ordinary big families, the Ge family has an absolute advantage, but this time the situation is different, there are too many people involved, and some families are willing to give up everything for the sake of Shengli, which will make the Ge family's situation very serious.
Embarrassing.
Ran Yi nodded. It goes without saying how powerful Shengli's attraction is. The price those big families are willing to pay for this matter is even more unimaginable.
Although the auction has not started yet, Ran Yi can already imagine how fierce the fighting will be in this auction.
"You Ge family are so helpless, have you forgotten me?" Ran Yi said disdainfully.
Ge Zhonglin understood what he meant. Ran Yi had kept a low profile in Feng Mall for so many years, but in fact he controlled half of the auction house's business. His financial resources were also quite amazing. With Ran Yi's help, Ge Zhonglin wanted to win the auction
There is a higher possibility of winning the Holy Chestnut at the meeting.
But as an old friend for many years, Ge Zhonglin was unwilling to do this.
Because of Ran Yi's life-saving grace, Ran Yi was unable to practice. This made Ge Zhonglin feel that he owed Ran Yi, and this debt was something Ge Zhonglin could not repay.
Now, he still wants to take Ran Yi's money, which is even more unacceptable to Ge Zhonglin.
At this time, the guard walked up to Ran Yi and said to Ran Yi: "Master, someone is coming to the door again."
"Who?" Ran Yi asked.
"Ximen family, Ximenchang." the guard said.
Upon hearing the three words Ximenchang, both Ran Yi and Ge Zhonglin's expressions changed.
"I didn't expect Ximenchang to come in person." Ge Zhonglin said through gritted teeth.
The Ximen family is another big family after the Bai Ling family. Even in the heyday of the Bai Ling family, the Ximen family was only slightly inferior. After the Bai Ling family was exterminated, the Ximen family became the well-deserved
The first family in the Imperial Court, and due to the close relationship between Ximen Chang and Emperor Zun, the Ximen family was not restricted by the Imperial Court.
"It seems that it is not easy for your Ge family to win Shengli." Ran Yi said with a sigh.
Ximen Chang came forward in person, which is enough to show that the Ximen family is determined to win Shengli, and his appearance will definitely make many families give up their thoughts.
After all, no one wants to offend Ximen Chang, and everyone will worry about being tricked by Ximen Chang afterwards.
"Even if Ximenchang comes, my Ge family will do our best." Ge Zhonglin said unconvinced.
Ran Yi nodded, Ximen Chang was worth fearing, but under the temptation of a treasure like the Holy Chestnut, it was still worth giving the Ge family a try.
"You go to the backyard first, I'll meet Ximenchang for a while," Ran Yi said.
Ge Zhonglin and the other three were led by the guards to the backyard.
After a while, an old man with white hair appeared in front of Ran Yi. His long hair was not tied up and was allowed to flutter in the wind, giving him an air of immortality.
Ran Yi stood up, bowed, and said respectfully: "I didn't expect to be able to meet Mr. Ximen in my lifetime. It is really a great blessing in my life."
Ximenchang sneered at such flattery, and with his status, he would not take Ran Yi seriously at all, so he said rudely: "You should know the purpose of my coming. In this case, you don't need me to say more."
Have you asked?"
"The auction house has its own rules. I hope Mr. Ximen can understand them," Ran Yi said.
Ximenchang snorted coldly and said: "Are there any rules in front of me? I, Ximenchang, am the one who rules!"
