Chapter 69 stingy
Young?
My real age can be your grandfather!
Ye Tong complained in his heart, but the two memories merged, and he found that his mentality became very young. Although it was dominated by Ye Tian's memory, his previous life was just memories, and his actions were still affected by his current body.
Late at night, as the dinner at the Prince's Mansion ended, Mu Xiaochen dragged his tired body back to the room, and as the maid brought hot water to wash his feet, he was about to rest, suddenly remembered something.
"Xiao Cui, where are the gifts sent by those guests today stored?"
The maid said, "In the past, the gifts received in the mansion will usually be placed in the temporary warehouse."
Mu Xiaochen put on his shoes again, sent someone to call the manager in the mansion and asked, "Do you still remember the gift Ye Tong sent today?"
"Remember."
The manager was meticulous. When Ye Tong sent the gift, the prince wanted to open it and see what gift it was inside, which meant that he cared about the boy named Ye Tong, so he deliberately kept a careful look and put the gift alone.
Mu Xiaochen said, "Go and get it."
"Yes!" The manager nodded slightly and turned to pick it up. Not long after, he returned to Mu Xiaochen with the exquisitely packaged gift box and asked, "Criminal, do you want to open it?"
"Open." Mu Xiaochen remembered the gift box and said with a smile: "I'm really curious, what gift would that kid Ye Tong give."
However, his smile lasted for only ten seconds. When he saw the content in the gift box, his smile froze directly.
“Cake…pastry?”
The manager didn't understand what the meaning of Mr. Ye gave him.
Mu Xiaochen felt a breath of air in his chest, feeling uncomfortable, so he waved his hand, drove away the suspicious manager, and kicked the table in front of him directly over.
Pastry! Looking at the appearance of the pastry, it is clearly the pastry that Lan Tianyu gave to Ye Tong every day!
Mu Xiaochen understood.
Finally, I realized that Ye Tong stopped him from opening the gift box in public. He was so worried that he would believe it. The guy was afraid that the gift would be exposed. Just a few pieces of pastries would be laughed at by all the guests present!
"Stingy bastard." Mu Xiaochen vented, and a smile appeared on his face again. He grabbed a piece of pastry while shaking his head. After eating it in his mouth, his face became slightly stunned: It tastes good!
Dinner at the Prince's Mansion.
It was like a small episode in the rhythm of life. Although Ye Tong received a trial post, he didn't take it seriously and didn't even make a decision. Whether to take the assessment at that time will be held.
Waiting is not a difficult thing for him. Although the auction will take several days to hold, he not only practices but also carves jade every day, and his life is fulfilling.
The weather is warming up and the night wind brings a cool breath.
Hanhai did not ride in a kirin car as usual, but led a lion and mule beast. Under the protection of several guards, he leisurely admired the scenery of the neighborhood. He had been in the county for nearly half a month and was about to return to the imperial capital soon, so he wanted to remember this place that made him feel pretty good.
At this time, there were not many people on this street, almost everyone was in a hurry, but not many people paid attention to them.
Suddenly, behind the eaves on both sides of the street, dozens of mysterious people wearing black night clothes raised their crossbow arrows in their hands and shot volleys at the Hanhai group below without warning. Most of them were feathered arrows pierced through the carriage of the Qilin car in front.
"Enemy attack."
As the two guards were shot and killed by a sudden attack, the other two guards who reacted fast enough instantly protected the vast sea. The sword shadow flew over and formed an airtight sword net, blocking the feather arrows.
Hanhai was stunned. The reason why he was confused was not this sudden sneak attack, but what Ye Tong said to him a few days ago.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"
Iron chains were thrown out from the roofs on both sides, and the iron hooks at the other end hooked the house opposite. More than a dozen practitioners wearing black night clothes slid down the chains, and surrounded the three of Hanhai in the blink of an eye.
"Kill all the people!" A hoarse voice came from a masked man's mouth. In an instant, more than a dozen people launched a fierce attack on the three of them.
Han Hai's pupils contracted, and he found that these dozen people were all powerful people in the innate realm. The mysterious man who spoke had the sixth level of innate cultivation.
"Who are you?"
Hanhai himself is very strong and has now broken through to the fifth level of the innate realm. As his figure continues to flash, mysterious killers were repelled by him, and the two guards around him were injured under the siege of the mysterious killer.
“Want to know?”
The mysterious man at the sixth level of innate level asked in a hoarse voice, then drew his sword instantly, slashed at Hanhai's head, and shouted sternly: "Go to Purgatory and Ask the Lord of the Underworld!"
"clang……"
Hanhai hurriedly lifted his sword, and as Mars flew everywhere, the huge force made him retreat more than ten meters, while the mysterious man was invisible and instantly rushed to his eyes.
"puff……"
A middle-aged guard was shot by crossbows on the roofs on both sides after struggling to withstand the attacks of three mysterious killers. The other one dodged quickly enough, but was also shot in the shoulder.
The pedestrians on the street have already fled at this time. In the pavilions on both sides of the street, there are many more courageous residents hiding in the windows. Through the gaps in the windows, they see the scene of fighting on the street.
It was shocking! Because this kind of street attack scene happened in a few times in a year, and every time I encountered it, it would become the topic of discussion for the next half year.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Sudden.
On the roof of the street, dozens of mysterious men in black holding crossbow arrows fell downwards. Six ghostly figures flew along the eaves, and sword shadows were as fast as lightning, harvesting the lives of the mysterious men in black.
At this time, Han Hai had been torn apart several shocking wounds, and blood stained his clothes red. Faced with the violent attack of the mysterious man, he could only barely resist.
"Ben Lei."
The mysterious man had discovered that his subordinate fell and died like rain. His eyes were full of hostility. His sword light was like thunder, and he strangled into a vortex of sword shadow, instantly covering the Hanhai. Even though Hanhai tried his best to resist, his right chest was still pierced by the sword light, and his head was torn apart.
"Swish!Swish!"
Two ghostly figures instantly appeared behind the mysterious man, and the exquisite fencing force stabbed the mysterious man's back waist, back heart, back neck and back head respectively. The speed was so fast that the mysterious man's face changed drastically.
In an instant, his body twisted strangely, moved away half a meter away, and then shouted loudly at the moment when his back was injured: "Escape."
The remaining seven or eight mysterious killers did not fight at all when they heard this, quickly got rid of the ghostly masters and evacuated towards the distance like a storm.
"Wind Shadow!"
A low voice came from the mouth of a man beside Hanhai.
Suddenly.
Without a slight pause, a man chased towards the mysterious people in black who were fleeing.
"Young Master." The only guard who was still alive was covered in scars. He struggled to sprint to Hanhai and asked hurriedly: "How are you?"
Hanhai covered his right chest, and the blood had dyed his cheeks red. He looked a little ferocious. He shook his head. His eyes calmed down. He looked at the five men in black who were vigilantly observing the surroundings and said, "The injury is very serious, but I can't die. Yueying, thank you."
The man beside him shook his head and said, "It's because his subordinates dereliction of duty, and they realize it's too late."
Hanhai said: "The other party is lying here in ambush, and the sneak attack is fast enough. It is understandable that you didn't notice it in advance."
As soon as the words fell, Han Hai's expression also changed, and he said coldly: "We must find out who those people are and who are instructing them. I have not made enemies with others in this Zifu County and County City. In addition, I am low-key enough, and few people know whereabouts. The envoy behind this must be very familiar with me, and it may even be... my own people."
My own? The guard and Yueying were thinking, and a young and handsome face appeared in their minds at the same time.
Hanhai was assassinated, and it came and went quickly, and it did not have much impact. The next day, the large-scale auction that caused a sensation in the county finally arrived.
Baishun Auction House is located in the west city of the county town and covers a large area, with a total of four floors. In addition to the hall, which can accommodate hundreds of people, the other three floors can also accommodate hundreds of people on each floor.
The circular interior space has 400 seats in the first floor lobby, and the second floor, third floor and fourth floor are private rooms. Most of the people on the first floor are ordinary guests. In addition to having a lot of wealth, those who are eligible to climb upstairs also need the support of their status.
Outside the gate.
After Ye Tong arrived with the Medicine Slave, he looked at the eight burly men outside the door and was secretly shocked, because he keenly realized that the auras of these eight people were strong, at least they were strong people in the innate realm. The hunchbacked middle-aged man who was smiling at the guests found that he could not see through the depth of the other party at all.
"It has a deep foundation!" Ye Tong sighed in his heart and took out the token that Baishun Trading Company once gave.
"Welcome to distinguished guests."
The middle-aged man's eyes lit up, and he looked at Ye Tong with a friendly look. He even stuffed Ye Tong a wooden sign, and then smiled and said, "Please take the private room on the second floor, please."
Ye Tong nodded with a smile and entered the interior with a wooden sign.
"It's very large and grand enough! Through these we can see that Baishun Commercial Bank is indeed rich and powerful." Ye Tong said while observing.
Yaonu said: "In the business group, Baishun Commercial Bank can rank among the top three in the entire Skynet Empire, so its financial resources are naturally not to be overlooked. The Hanhai we met in the Prince's Mansion a few days ago may have an extraordinary status in Baishun Commercial Bank."
Ye Tong asked: "Who is the one with the most powerful Baishun Shangxing?
Yaonu said, "The surname is Shang."
Ye Tong curled his lips. The owner of Baishun Trading Company was surnamed Shang, and that guy was surnamed Han. Even if he had some identity and background in Baishun Trading Company, he might not be much older.
On the second floor, led by the auction house's staff, Ye Tong and Yao Nu entered a private room. The private room was not large, only about ten square meters, but there were tables and chairs, as well as tea, pastries and fruits on it, which were well prepared.
