Chapter 321: The Bingtang The Old Nong The Man in the Painting The Misty Aura
Peanut's turnaround rate is due to the huge six-barrel Gatling machine cannon behind him. Compared to Peanut's normal height of only 1.7 meters, the barrel is 2.3 meters long and weighs more than 200 kilograms. It is really too conspicuous. Not to mention the extremely tough style of Peanut's body wrapping a large golden bullet chain.
Thanks to this, Peanut's powerful deterrence effect makes people know at a glance that he is very powerful, which avoids many harassed disciples who covet Liu Yun's beautiful beauty coming up to harass him.
As for Li Yeling, he was directly ignored by gorgeously. In the end of the world, he was obviously not popular with a guy who gave people a kind of weak strength and made a living by his face.
This was the first time Li Yeling received such treatment, and she couldn't help but laugh and cry, while Peanut looked proud and proud, so she was very proud.
Half an hour later, the group of three people walked to the end of this avenue. Here, it was completely different from the scenery just now. Like every city, the civilian area of Wuyun City and the residential area of Daguan Guiren are also clearly separated. Relying on the characteristics of Danan Temple, Wuyun City decided that in Wuyun City, the closer it is to Danan Temple, the more precious it is.
Danan Zen Temple is located on Mount Wutai in the east of the city. Naturally, these dignitaries and nobles cannot climb it. Therefore, this big Buddha statue located in the east of the city became the object they were approaching. This street with a total length of fifteen kilometers, and at the last two kilometers, the streets were cleaned. The streets here are particularly clean and tidy, and can be said to be spotless. In addition to the straight birch trees towering like guards, there are also some low holly trees, fir, and pine trees, which embellish here lushly and full of vitality.
There were not many cars on the street, but one in the past must be a good car, and the lowest level was 500,000 or 600,000 to the end of the world. Li Yeling even saw a fat monk wearing a big red monk's robe sitting in an extended Lincoln, escorting the two trucks of live ammunition in front and behind. The streets here are no longer three or five-story shops, but big houses, and every few hundred meters, a high-gate house with guards standing at the door.
This place is obviously a powerful area.
There are not no ordinary pedestrians here, but people are very conscious and rarely come here unless necessary. After all, in this place, any collision with someone may bring disaster to themselves. Most of the ordinary people coming and going here are devout believers, going to burn incense in front of the Buddha.
When you walk to the end of the street, a fortress was built on each side, with the shooting mouths inside, and countless heavy firepower hidden in it. From here, outside the street entrance, there is an extremely open plain with a very vast area, spreading from here to the foot of Mount Wutai. The Buddha is located on a small hill on the front of this plain, and further away is Mount Wutai, which is towering into the clouds, and a stone road leads to the foot of Mount Wutai.
Facing this side of Mount Wutai, there are also several fortress castles, but it is far behind the Western Front.
Turning into the penultimate fork on the right side, Li Yeling and others came to this so-called grid road. The grid road was filled with shops of all sizes, but all the stores sold in these stores were rare luxury goods. Chanel's perfume, LV bags, red wine from French aged winery, various special chocolates, Huanghelou cigarettes... These things that were bought at high prices or even sky-high prices before the end of the world are all available here. Now it is not that you have to spend high prices, but you also need identity.
This is like a special-service store before the collapse of the Soviet Union, and documents are required to enter.
Baobingtang is located in the middle of Grid Road. It is an ancient Chinese building. It looks like a three-story eaves with a 100-meter-wide facade. On the lintel, the three big words "Baobingtang" are on it, which are quaint.
Li Yeling smiled knowingly. The name Baobingtang was originally very ancient and very particular. It comes from "Wu Yue Chunqiu? Gou Jian Returns to China": "The King of Yue thought about Wu and the fugitive was not the last day. He worked hard and worked hard day and night... He often hugged ice in winter, but also held fire in summer."
The owner of the place must be very ambitious to take the name of Baobingtang.
There were a row of soldiers carrying live ammunition standing on both sides of the door, each with ten, all of which were extremely strong men. On both sides of the gate, Li Yeling clearly saw the muzzles of more than a dozen black heavy machine guns exposed in the wall. Li Yeling also saw an extremely tall man in it. He was actually three meters away, but he was holding a heavy machine gun with a carrying heavy machine gun on his back. A huge iron box was sticking out from it. He was received from the heavy machine gun. This big guy with a total weight of 1,300 rounds of ammunition box weighing 130 kilograms was lifted lightly on the man.
Seeing the three strangers coming over, everyone's eyes suddenly gathered on the faces of the three people, and all the soldiers' muzzles were raised slightly. The big man's eyes were focused on peanuts. Originally, his appearance was strong enough, but compared with peanuts now, it was a tiny witch.
Li Yeling could tell at a glance that this man was definitely a mutant. As for what kind of mutant he was, it was unknown. He secretly praised the great work of Baobingtang, and actually used the mutant to guard the door. Li Yeling walked up and smiled and said, "Sir, we are here to participate in this auction."
When Li Yeling was looking at the big man, the big man was also looking at him. He came to a conclusion from the weight of hundreds of kilograms of peanuts. The fat man who was not tall was definitely not strong, at least at his own level, and might be stronger. Among the three, he was led by a handsome young man who was not strong, which also surprised him a little.
"Attend the auction?" Unexpectedly, the man's attitude was not bad, but rather kind. He smiled and said, "Brother, do you have any posts to attend the auction?"
While talking, Li Yeling and the other two creaked behind him. A Bentley extended sedan stopped and two young men got off from above. One man and one woman, a man was wearing a decent suit, and the woman was wearing a snow-white fur. At first glance, you could tell that it was handmade by a master. It was very good to wear on his body. Both of them were young, but they were only in their twenties. The young man was still handsome, but the extremely strong ruffian on his face could not be concealed no matter what. His nostrils looked upside down, and he wanted to write the word "I am a playboy" on his face. However, the woman was extremely charming, with a pair of peach blossom eyes that were full of charm, and charming and charming.
The two got out of the car and saw the three people dressed as soldiers. The young man snorted disdainfully in his nostrils, but stared at Liu Yun with a tight look, and a hint of greed and lust flashed in his eyes. The woman's eyes turned around on the three people, then stopped on Li Yeling, with a playful smile on the corner of her mouth.
The man turned around and lit a golden card in his hand to the big man, then walked straight into the mahogany half-closed door, and jokingly said when he walked past Li Yeling and the other two: "Not even a cat or a dog can come here!"
He forced Peanut to hold down the furious Peanut. Looking at the two people who had already entered the door, Li Yeling smiled disdainfully: "The man is a fool, but the woman is a little more interesting."
Seeing Li Yeling pressing down the already furious fat man, the man's evaluation of the handsome young man in front of him was much higher, but that's all. In his opinion, Li Yeling's strength is just a match for peanuts. In fact, it's not wrong to think about it this way, but he doesn't understand the strength of peanuts anymore.
"I don't have this post, but I have something to auction." Before coming here, Li Yeling already knew the basis of the auction house, either an invitation post sent by the owner of the auction house, or a goods of certain value in his hand. The idea was that this goods must be exchanged for exchange points in the item store.
"Oh? Is there any goods?" The man became interested and smiled and said, "Do you understand the rules?"
Li Yeling smiled faintly: "Since I've come here, I naturally have something to rely on."
The big man nodded and turned to a soldier next to him and said, "Go to buy it from Manager Lin, and you will say that there is a product to come to your door."
The soldier took the order and went there quickly. After a while, a middle-aged man wearing a black suit, medium figure, thin body, and a bookish face walked out of the mahogany door. The middle-aged man spoke very politely, looked at Li Yeling and others, and said to the big man: "Captain Yan, are these three people?"
Captain Yan, who was wearing the rank of major of the National Revolutionary Army, nodded and pointed at Li Yeling and said, "This brother has goods."
"Little brother, don't know your surname?" the middle-aged man, Shopkeeper Lin, said with a smile.
"I don't have a surname from Li. This time I came to Wuyun City to buy and sell a batch of goods for us." Li Yeling didn't say nonsense. He flashed his right hand and a green magic crystal appeared in his hand, smiling and said, "Is this thing worth a ticket?"
These people in Wuyun City, whether they are Captain Yan of the Han Dynasty or Manager Lin, are very polite and very well-educated. They are not aggressive and speak much more politely.
As soon as the magic crystal was taken out, it immediately emitted a soft and faint green light. This layer of light formed a green light shield of about twenty centimeters in the palm of Li Yeling's hand, reflecting Li Yeling's palm into a leisurely green. As soon as the magic crystal was taken out, it immediately caused a burst of exclamation at the scene. Not only did the soldiers show a surprised expression, but even Captain Yan of the Han was a little surprised. He did not expect that these three seemingly shabby soldiers would take such a generous move.
Only the shopkeeper Lin's face was still faint. He reached out to take the magic crystal, looked carefully, and said in a deep voice: "This magic crystal is at least the magic crystal of a level three lower monster. The price should be around 300 points for exchange."
Li Yeling couldn't help but secretly praised the handsome look of Manager Lin. This magic crystal was one of the two third-level magic crystal cores given to him by Wolf Head. These two magic crystals were also the only two third-level magic crystals in the entire Tiger Head Tribe. When the wolf head was too generous and too generous to give Li Yeling, Mingge was fine for some obstacles. In the end, the two almost made a fuss. This was why Li Yeling took advantage.
Li Yeling nodded: "Yes, this time I attach great importance to this trip to Wuyun City. This magic crystal is just an appetizer."
Appetizer? This level 3 magic crystal is the appetizer. What is the real highlight?
What is the person dressed in the soldier in front of me? And who is the person behind him? He actually has such rich family resources.
The shopkeeper Lin's expression remained unchanged. He nodded, flipped his hand and handed Li Yeling a golden card: "Brother Li, this is a post. From now on, Ice Hall will welcome you at any time."
Obviously, this shopkeeper Lin had the same idea as Captain Yan, and he wanted to win over Li Yeling, but the target they were not Li Yeling, but the person behind Liu Yun. After all, Captain Yan is just a mutant with far less strength than the Divine Selected One. Except for these tricks, Manager Lin was ordinary in other aspects. Li Yeling was wearing ordinary clothes, so both of them did not see Li Yeling's strength, but they just regarded him as a scheming and powerful envoy. This made them more interested in the power behind Li Yeling, because Peanut's strength was written on his face. It would make him bow to someone like Li Yeling who was not as strong as him, and the story behind it would definitely not be simple.
Li Yeling knew that this was the other party's kindness, so he also made a hypocritical refusal. Besides, he really needed such a card to be the admission certificate.
After taking the golden card, Li Yeling looked at Manager Lin deeply and suddenly said, "I'm sorry to ask you, Manager Lin, how did you develop this piece of ignorant eyes? Although you are the God-Selected One, you have to put a piece of magic crystal in your own item store to know what level it is. Manager Lin can actually see it, and I really admire you."
"What, God-Selected? Are you actually God-Selected?" As soon as this said, both the shopkeeper Lin Captain Yan and the ordinary soldiers were shocked. The young man in front of him who seemed to have no aura of a strong man was actually God-Selected. They were a little skeptical in their hearts, but when they saw Li Yeling's right hand flash, the magic crystal suddenly disappeared, and then appeared out of thin air, this is the belief. Freely letting objects travel between the real world and the storage space is the most basic and unique ability of the God-Selected.
Manager Lin sighed secretly. This is why he knew that he had misunderstood this time. The other party did not have any strong aura in his opinion. It was not that the other party was too weak, but that his own strength was not enough to sense the aura at that level.
Manager Lin smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry for my crime, little brother. I've been so rude just now, I hope Hai Han. As for whether you can see the quality of this magic crystal, it's nothing strange. Before Wuyun City was built, this boom hall already existed. We're doing a choreography here. Over the past few days, there are not a thousand magic crystals that we've seen, and if we can't see through it at first sight, we should be ashamed."
Although Manager Lin knew Li Yeling's identity, he did not become servile. He just seemed to have a little distance. He was still neither humble nor arrogant, and had a moderate approach. This made Li Yeling's evaluation of people like Wuyun City rise to a higher level. If you look at the whole leopard, you can imagine that the owner of the Baobing Hall must be very well-educated.
This indifference and humility must be related to Wuyuncheng's respect for Buddhism!
As for Li Yeling's willingness to reveal his strength, it was due to a deterrent consideration. Anyway, his strength will definitely not be hidden after entering later. Since that is the case, why bother to hide it? Let's tell him a famous saying here, which will easily attract their attention and favor.
The two of them exchanged a few more greetings, looking at the guests who came and went here with a strange look, and looked at the guests of Li Yeling and the other two with a strange look. Manager Lin smiled and said, "Brother, this is not a place for conversation. Let's go in and talk again! Go, and also, didn't the expensive master entrust you to buy things? If you want to auction in Baobingtang, you have to report and get appraisal."
Li Yeling smiled and said, "Then let's talk about it. There are actually a few things to be sold here."
The three of them and Manager Lin entered the mahogany gate and saw a hall. The hall was actively wide and was 20 meters away. However, the decoration inside was not luxurious. It was just ordinary blue and white stone slabs, polished into a frosted surface material, and it was very smooth when stepped on. The hall was empty, and no one of the men and women who were holding posts in the hand that had just come in.
Before Li Yeling asked, shopkeeper Lin explained: "This is just an empty shell, and the real auction place is at the back. When Wuyun City was not yet built and everyone was still poor, it was still a store. Later, everyone's stalls were big and their stances were big. I thought it was not so grand, so the boss insisted on them, so he had to build another one."
There was a strong irony in Manager Lin's words, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with those top-notch people who were very proud of each other. Li Yeling smiled and didn't say anything, but in his heart he thought that Manager Lin was pretty good and cute.
"Three, please come with me!" With Manager Lin and Li Yeling and the other two went out from a corner door on one side of the hall, their eyes suddenly lit up. In front of them there was a garden of considerable area, and it was in the style of Jiangnan gardens.
The courtyard in front of me is 100 meters long and wide, which is already very spacious. This reason alone is larger than the houses of ordinary wealthy families. The center of the garden is a small lake, but it is very exquisite. There are nine-curved slanting bridges in the lake, which are melodious and melodious. There are many flowers and trees planted around the lake, colorful and colorful. The flowers and trees are sparsely decorated with rockery lake stones, which are full of fun and pleasant scenery. Li Yeling was still surprised at how these delicate flowers and trees grew in spring, summer and autumn under the low temperature of minus 30 degrees Celsius. But when he saw the lake water that was not only flowing but also radiant white air in the original center, he knew everything.
There is such a hot spring with high water temperature nearby. What kind of plant can't live?
Seeing this long-lost spring scenery, Li Yeling, who has been in the wasteland for a long time and has been covered with snow, was also refreshed and happy. He smiled and said, "There is actually a hot spring here. It's really a good place. Manager Lin, it would be worth the trip to see this scenery today."
Manager Lin sneered: "What kind of hot springs? These waters are boiled with machines and poured down one pot after another."
There is a strong sense of ridicule in the words, and the meaning of disdain is very strong.
After hearing his words, Li Yeling and the other two could only remain silent. In the coldest days of the end of the world, at a low temperature of tens of degrees below zero, any material that can cause fire to keep warm is very precious. The three of them were all born in the wasteland and saw countless refugees who were frozen to death due to lack of wood fuel. Here, at this time, these people used materials that seemed extremely precious to the wasteland refugees to burn water and poured them into this small lake, just to create a hot spring effect here. Although the area of this small lake is not large, it is also 7,000 to 8,000 square meters, and the depth is still two or three meters. How much hot water should be used to fill such a small lake? How much fuel should be consumed?
Reality taught Li Yeling an extremely vivid real-life version of "There are frozen bones on the road of wine and meat".
Li Yeling shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Look, look, what is Zhongming Ding Food, and what is wealth and honor? Compared with others, the small stall in his home is really far from that."
Manager Lin said, "Brother, there is the real auction place."
Following the fingers of Manager Lin and Li Yeling and the other two looked at it. To the north of the garden, there was a majestic and solemn lobby-style single-body palace building. The hall was made of brick and wood, built with stone foundations, with a width of nine rooms. Ten large pillars in front were like giants. The shape was a nine-ridge and four-slope top. Relying on the columns, the surrounding eaves were ringed outside the corridor, and the shape was grand and deep. Under the steps, a large piece of blood-red roses bloomed in a thrilling and splendid manner.
There were many people who were dressed or ordinary, walking on the corridor, obviously they all attended this auction.
However, Manager Lin did not take them directly there, but led the three of them around the small lake and went to a two-story building next to the hall, and went up to the second floor. The building was placed very elegantly, with only one short piece and two cushions. The walls were painted as white as snow, covered with thin bamboo pieces, and some calligraphy and paintings were pasted on it, which were all elegant and light. It is not difficult to see the owner's taste. A window was half-closed, and you can see the scenery below when you look up.
A small building with a wooden and stone structure actually gives people the artistic conception of "the wood door is half-closed and no one is present, and the birds return in the cold and lonely mountain". If it can create such an effect, the builder must be ingenious.
Manager Lin smiled and said, "Everyone, now I'll try tea and enjoy the scenery here. I'll ask us to be in charge of the business here. There is nothing trivial about the auction, and I can't make any decisions."
After saying that, before everyone could speak, he pushed the door out. As soon as he left, a woman came in. The woman was about 17 or 18 years old and was not very beautiful. Not to mention that she was inferior to Yan Qingyuan and Qu Yanxiao, even compared to Liu Yun now, but the woman had a strong bookish spirit, and her eyebrows were also elegant and refined, giving people a feeling of excellent temperament. The girl was wearing a palace costume of ancient Chinese palaces, a gorgeous dress and big sleeves, and a tray in her hand, with three Qingming cups on it. The three of them were stunned. In this situation, the scene and the place were here, and the girl seemed to be walking out of a painting.
The girl lowered her eyebrows and held her head, put the tray on a low table, took out the tea on it, and said, "Please use it slowly with the distinguished guest."
Then Yingying retreated.
It was not until the girl turned out that the three people woke up from this dream, which was not known to be deliberately created or accidentally glanced at. Peanuts clattered their mouths, but they wanted to say something, but because of the lack of language, they could not express it. Liu Yun looked ashamed, obviously he was better than the girl than himself.
Li Yeling clapped his hands and clapped his hands. He said in a leisurely voice: "Look at what is wealth and honor, what is luxury, that's it. Hehe, when we are working hard in the steel town, we can eat two pieces of meat and live in a big house, so we are very content. We never thought that in this life there would be such a paradise on earth in this end of the world!"
The two nodded together.
Looking at the shopkeeper Lin, from the taste, character, and influence of people, all of them are the best choices, and there are also such a smoke-like woman serving tea. What an indescribable feeling is this? Thinking about the role of Store Manager Lin claiming to be an appraiser who is not very responsible, then what the real bigwigs here enjoy, it is really hard to imagine.
After a while, Manager Lin pushed the door and came in. A short and fat old man followed behind him. The old man looked in his sixties, not tall, round, and snow-white silver hair. The old man was wearing a gray cloth robe that was half old and not new, and looked like a scholar from the old era. His expression was very kind and indifferent.
As soon as the old man came in, Li Yeling immediately felt an unconcealable aura. This aura exuded a sense of calmness, but it was also very powerful and profound. Obviously, this old man was definitely a master, at least not inferior to himself. Thinking of this, Li Yeling felt a trembling heart. Just a housekeeper, his strength was no less than that of himself. Wuyun City was really hidden and lying. And Li Yeling could sense it, and the old man was of course aware of it. The light flashed in his eyes when he looked at Li Yeling.
Manager Lin smiled and introduced: "This is the chief manager of our Baobing Hall, Nong University. Nong University, this is Chief Li. This time he came from afar and looked like he was here to see him. He also wanted to auction some things."
Li Yeling liked the rules of Baobingtang very much. Here, only the surnames are not known by their names, which saves a lot of trouble.
Given his identity and the other party's age, Li Yeling walked forward first, reached out his hand, and smiled and said, "Mr. Nong, I'm lucky to know you."
The Nong University had heard about Li Yeling talk about Li Yeling. He knew that he was a god-selected person, but he was still doing things for others. He was puzzled at the beginning, but when he saw Li Yeling with his own eyes and felt his overflowing breath, he knew that what Manager Lin said was not false. He also had a very polite or fearful attitude towards the unknown huge force behind Li Yeling. Because he was born in Danan Zen Temple, the senior officials of Wuyun City generally worshiped Buddha carefully. Compared with those who were killed and killed in other places, their cultivation was much higher. They even understood that although Wuyun City was big, it was still inferior to others, so they were also very polite to Li Yeling.
In this era, soldiers are the kings, and strength is the biggest benchmark for measuring whether a person will be respected.
The Nong University smiled kindly and said, "My friend, if you have anything to auction, please take it out first and let the old man take a look!"
Li Yeling flashed his right hand, and three things appeared in his hand and handed them to Master Nong, smiling respectfully: "I also want to ask you to take a look."
To be continued...
