"ah?"
Tan Tai Xiu was stunned for a moment and didn't react for a moment: seeing her reaction when she saw Qu Zhengfeng's name, he thought she would ask a few more questions, but he didn't expect her to change the subject so quickly.
I don't know why, but I have a strange feeling in my heart.
But Tan Tai Xiu did not think too deeply about it, because Jianchou's question was a little special to him, and the dark light in his eyes suddenly flickered.
"Well, this... If I say that I want to buy this person because Zuo Liu has the Karma Fire Red Lotus, I will practice it, will the fairy believe it?"
"Practice..."
Buy it back and practice
Jianchou didn't understand what this meant at first. He was about to ask "What kind of cultivation?" But before he could finish his words, his mind suddenly jumped and he realized -
Wait, practice
Tan Tai Xiu's "cultivation"? !
At this moment, she was so frightened that she woke up completely!
Tan Tai Xiu!
His physique, his cultivation, who in Tomorrow Star Sea doesn't know, who doesn't know? He actually told her that he wanted to buy Zuo Liu back to "cultivate"?!
Jianchou originally thought that he was an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage after all. He had experienced life and death and seen many storms. He should be able to remain calm no matter what he encountered in the future.
But I never expected...
I was defeated in one day by this casual sentence "buy it back and practice"!
She suddenly felt dizzy and couldn't speak for a long time.
Perhaps knowing that his words were truly shocking, Tan Tai Xiu covered his lips with his hand and coughed, hiding the slight smile in his voice: "Ahem, um, fairy?"
"… "
When Jianchou heard the voice, she finally came back to her senses. She looked up at him stiffly. At this time, consciousness and reason slowly returned to her.
"I don't believe it."
"Why don't you believe it?"
Tan Tai Xiu was immediately a little surprised and opened his eyes slightly wide. He obviously did not expect Jianchou's answer. After all, judging from her previous expression, it seemed that she believed it.
Jianchou didn't know much about Tan Tai Xiu.
In fact, she had no basis for her judgment. She simply could not imagine Zuo Liu, a gangster, getting involved with Tan Tai Xiu, a man who was popular with both men and women.
If I had to make up a reason...
"Young Master Tan Tai has a special physique. If he wants to practice, he should have no shortage of people. Although the Karma Fire Red Lotus is a rare treasure that only appears once in a thousand years, if you want to improve a person's cultivation, you will probably need to add a pill. In this way, its power will enter the meridians, blood and flesh of the person who takes it. Even if you practice, I'm afraid you won't be able to get much benefit from it."
"Hahaha, the fairy really has foresight!"
After listening to this, Tan Tai Xiu laughed, sighed, and walked to the table.
In addition to the tea set and incense burner, there is actually another thing on the round table.
A dark green jade slip.
The four corners were painted with exquisite silver cloud patterns, and in the middle were the two ancient seal characters for "Bai Yin", about two fingers wide and one finger long. From the shape, it was clear that this jade slip should be the "list" of things that Bai Yin Building was going to put up for sale today.
Tan Tai Xiu reached out his hand, picked up the jade slip, and played with it in his hand.
"Of course I covet the power of the Karma Fire Red Lotus, but now that Zuo Liu has cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage, he must have absorbed all of the Red Lotus. If I want to regain his power, I must suck him dry. I don't have the courage to do that..."
"Don't you have the courage?" Jianchou was surprised.
Tan Tai Xiu's eyes showed some deep meaning, but he did not answer Jian Chou's question. He just stood in front of the window and said leisurely, "Fairy, aren't you curious about why I came here?"
"Master Tantai, are you willing to tell me?"
Jianchou raised his eyebrows slightly and remained calm.
"Oh."
Tan Tai Xiu smiled, hooked the jade slip, turned it gently, and still looked through the extremely narrow gap in the bamboo curtain at the upper three floors which were gradually becoming lively outside.
"The price is about to be set, and there are many important people coming. When there are so many people, there will always be a few who are my enemies..."
The bright sunlight shone on him through the gap.
The tea set was neat and tidy, the incense burner was old, and the curling smoke rose up, a thin layer, and flew out of the window. But Tan Tai Xiu's voice was actually more difficult to understand than the light smoke.
Jianchou stood behind him and looked at him, then slowly moved his gaze to the jade slip with silver patterns painted on it in his hand.
“Pah.”
With a crisp sound, the dark green jade slip hit the dusty and dry ground twice, just passing through the gap of the cage in front of it and falling beside Zuo Liu's legs.
He opened his eyes and saw a figure standing in front of him.
This is an extremely dark space below the platform across the Silver Building, but there is an exquisite silver lamp hanging in front.
The light stretched the figure of the man in front of him, casting it on the ground, folding right in front of the cage. Zuo Liu couldn't see the other person's facial features, but he had become very familiar with the man over the past few days.
Liang Tingyu.
She folded her arms, with her back to the silver lamp, and stared at Zuo Liu's somewhat dejected posture in the cage. Her cold voice was filled with a hint of mockery: "The price list has been released. The feast will begin in half an hour, and you are so relaxed."
He's just sitting here, how can he not be idle
Zuo Liu leaned against the cage fence on one side, looking listless. Hearing Liang Tingyu's words, he yawned without giving her face: "I don't have to rush to check the identity of the person who broke into the dungeon that day, so of course I have nothing to do. Liang Jijiu must have been really busy these past two days, right?"
"… "
This bastard!
When Liang Tingyu heard what he said, the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching a few times. He gritted his teeth in hatred and was unable to speak.
She has been really busy these days.
But what else can we do
The deepest dungeon was open to anyone like a vegetable market on the street, and she hadn't been able to keep any of them here. How could she not take the blame
And the root of all this is the guy in front of him who has all the habits of a gangster!
"If you weren't still of some use, I would have chopped you up and fed you to the dogs by now!"
The murderous intent and disgust in his words were not concealed at all.
Liang Tingyu did not walk over, but just stood there, with a cold look in his eyes: "I won't bother with you now. You should know that when the bidding ends, you will die!"
"Death date?"
Zuo Liu finally moved, reached out to pick up the jade slip on the ground, took a casual look at it, and couldn't help but sneer.
"I knew you had other intentions when you arrested me and asked for a price. I am just a filthy scoundrel with no sect or school, and you dared to set a reserve price of 100,000 spirit stones..."
One hundred thousand spirit stones!
Zuo Liu swore that the spiritual stones he had seen in his life were not even one tenth of this number! This number was so large that even in his inexperienced mind, he had no clear concept of it.
Is Night Boat crazy
"Even robbing money isn't this exaggerated. Your sect thinks too highly of a small figure like me, don't you?"
Zuo Liu shook his head, feeling that everyone on the night boat was crazy.
Liang Tingyu saw this and just sneered: "Whether you think highly of me or not, we will know in two hours. But, you are struggling in your heart, right?"
"… "
Zuo Liu looked up at her and said nothing.
Liang Tingyu seemed to have seen through his thoughts. He stood straight in front of Zuo Liu against the light and raised his eyebrows slightly: "After all, if I were you, I would also hope that someone would come to save me, but I don't want them to fall into a dangerous trap..."
“Bang!”
The dark green jade slip held in his hand was instantly crushed by the sudden burst of power from his fingertips, making a sharp cracking sound.
Zuo Liu sat in the dark, the veins on the back of his hands were already bulging, and his originally carefree eyes suddenly became fierce.
"You know what you look like? Like a trapped animal."
Liang Tingyu looked at him like this, and finally felt that the frustration she had felt from his previous ridicule was relieved. She felt relieved, but also had a faint bloodthirsty anticipation.
"Now, just wait and see if anyone comes to rescue you, and who will it be..."
When it comes, who will it be
Zuo Liu clenched his fists slowly, but felt a bloody smell rising up in his throat. He just looked at Liang Tingyu in front of him, but the figure of another female cultivator appeared in his mind.
More calm, more proud...
