Each one was trapped by metal hooks and tightly sealed on the wooden frame, like salted fish ready to be made.
I don't know what kind of torture he suffered. His body was extremely thin, and his exposed arms were covered with scars and scabs formed over time.
Shen Tangli's body was pulled, but before she could react, Yin Xie pushed her against the wall.
The two people concealed their figures again.
Only then did Shen Tangli hear the noise, and someone came in behind her.
Several men wearing auction house clothes were holding trays with utensils in them. There was a small dagger on one side of the utensils. Shen Tangli could probably guess the purpose of this thing just by looking at it. .
Several people walked up to a shark whose body was not yet dry, grabbed her wrist, slashed her wrist with a dagger, released the bright red blood inside, and quickly collected it with a vessel.
The female shark seemed to be used to it, her body just twitched, and she didn't even open her eyes, allowing the others to move.
After a while, the wound on the wrist healed, but the container was still not full, so several people deepened the wound again. Repeated several times, the scratch was already deep enough to show the bone.
A few people put the lids on the vessels with satisfaction, looking at the female mermaid as if they were looking at an inanimate cargo.
"How much more blood can this take?" one person asked.
"There are probably three or four more left, and they are almost used up, but the other one is almost found," one person answered.
"I heard it's still a female. We'll be breeding it when the time comes. Our store will have a steady stream of sharks. I'm sure we'll be able to taste the shark blood in the future."
A few people chatted and laughed and left.
Shen Tangli finally knew where Zhuying's injuries came from.
Could it be that you also came back from this place?
They were treated like blood slaves.
Shen Tangli raised her feet to walk towards the shark, but was pulled back by Yin Xie, who shook his head at her.
After leaving here, the ancestor took her straight to the third floor. No one noticed them in the middle. On the contrary, Shen Tangli noticed the man who had chatted with her before.
And Ye Wanqing beside him.
Ye Wanqing looked at the auction table with burning eyes and asked: "Isn't the auction over? What is going to be auctioned again?"
Song Cichen glanced at the auction table and knew at a glance: "It's probably the shark's blood."
Shark?
Ye Wanqing's eyes suddenly widened. There were actually sharks. If there was shark blood in the auction house, did it mean that these people had sharks in their hands?
She hadn't forgotten her mission as a disciple, so she grabbed Song Cichen's hand and couldn't restrain her excitement in her voice: "Cichen, is there any way you can help me? I want the Mermaid's Tears."
Mermaid tears?
That thing is something that can be encountered but not obtained.
What does Ye Wanqing want this for?
Seeing Song Cichen's confusion, Ye Wanqing quickly explained: "This is the sect mission we came out for this time. After completing this mission, we can go back. I don't really want to kill those sea beasts. After all, they are life. I will find a way then. The solution to their problem in getting along with the people here is that there is no need to kill them all."
She consciously said that she was righteous, but she never thought about the people of Haicheng who were eaten. The grudges were engraved in their bones. Unless the old and new people were replaced, how could the resentment be eliminated?
Song Cichen saw that she wanted to stand out from the crowd, so she didn't expose it and responded, "I'll do my best."
Ye Wanqing nodded reservedly: "Thank you."
Seeing Song Cichen's subordinate come down and telling him what happened in front of him, Liang Chen was stunned for a moment and whispered: "Fourth Young Master, my subordinates have received news that the shark they are looking for at the auction is suspected to be the same as Piao Miao. The ancestor of the Immortal Sect is also one of her disciples..."
Ye Wanqing didn't listen intentionally, but accidentally heard the word "mermaid" and went back to listen.
Liang Chen: "And that person has passed the estrus period and has changed gender."
Ye Wanqing's mind was busy and she immediately began to think about who the shark was. Shen Tangli was naturally photographed outside, and there was only one person there, the bamboo shadow that Shen Tangli picked up.
Isn’t it easy to distinguish between yes and no?
Just go and take a look.
When Liang Chen left, she came back to her senses from "concentrating" on watching the auction, and looked at Song Cichen as if she didn't understand: "Hey, your subordinate is gone. By the way, Cichen, do you know? I will go find the inn where my little senior sister lives, so that we can complete the mission together and return to the sect early."
Song Cichen raised her eyebrows and said casually: "Your relationship... She hurt you so much, and you still want to find her..."
Ye Wanqing naturally changed her expression, a little sad and a little aggrieved: "She was unkind to me, but I can't be unjust to her. My mother raised me single-handedly, and I owe her a lot. She also treated me with affection. Can be forgiven."
"You are really...'kind'..."
Ye Wanqing didn't notice Song Cichen's strange tone when he said this. He was immersed in his own world and listened to Song Cichen say the name of an inn.
"I'll go find my senior sister first. Then I'll come to you after seeing her. It's the same place as before."
Song Cichen nodded and looked towards a corner. The person hidden in the shadows immediately understood and followed behind Ye Wanqing.
gone?
What happened to Ye Wanqing? Why did she go away in such a hurry?
Shen Tangli reached out and patted Yin Xian, and asked in a low voice: "Ancestor, do you still have the formation that you used to send us to? Can you send me back for a while? I will notify you later to bring me back."
She said it carefully, for fear that this person would not agree.
"good."
Hey, you agreed so quickly, doesn’t it look like your ancestors?
Yin Xuan was dumbfounded by her reaction, and asked, "What kind of person am I to you?"
Without waiting for Shen Tangli's reply, Yin Xuan directly picked her up and threw her into the formation, completing the process in one go.
Ye Wanqing wielded her sword and quickly arrived at the inn.
He hid his figure and watched Chu Yunyao come out of a room with a soup bowl in his hand. After thinking about it, he came down and planned to start looking in this room first.
I don’t know if I was lucky, but I actually saw the person on the bed. He looked very similar to Zhuying, but his face was more handsome, and he was still a man.
"As expected..."
…
Shen Tangli was teleported into the big tree on the side of the inn, and frowned at Ye Wanqing.
What is this person going to do?
A secret figure was lurking not far from Ye Wanqing, and she was heard saying to herself: "It is indeed a shark, Bamboo Shadow."
