Chapter 18: Sneaking Into the Auction House [Second Update]
Chapter 18: Sneak into the auction house
When they came out of the alley, the two changed their appearance again. Judging from their appearance alone, no one would recognize who they were!
"Why do you put on makeup like this? You can't participate in the auction without an invitation or a private room!"
Seeing that Nie Yun had made himself up so that no one could recognize him, Yang Yan was a little surprised.
If you disguise yourself as a celebrity in Luoshui City, you might be able to sneak in just by looking at your face, but what's the point of getting in if no one recognizes you? There is no corresponding private room!
"Can you still think of the back door of the auction house... uh, we can go in through the back door!"
Asking if you can remember the back door of the auction house, Nie Yun remembered that he and Yang Yan went in through the back door in the past life. It hasn't happened in this life yet, so how could he know? He was embarrassed and hurriedly changed the subject.
"Go in through the back door? It's useless to go in without a private room..."
Hearing that Nie Yun actually came up with this idea, Yang Yan was immediately angry and said anxiously.
In the auction house, each private room corresponds to an identity. Only with this identity can you bid and participate in the auction. Otherwise, if everyone can go in and buy things, this auction house can not be called the first in Luoshui City!
"I have my own way, just follow me!" Nie Yun did not explain, walked along the street for a while, and went around to the back of the auction hall with Yang Yan.
"It's this window, while no one is here, sneak in!"
After searching around, Nie Yun's eyes fell on the window he had walked through in his previous life.
"I really don't know what you are going to do..." Although Yang Yan did not understand the purpose of the boy, out of trust in him, he still scratched his head and jumped onto the windowsill and got in.
Behind the window is a corridor of the auction. Nie Yun walked through this in his previous life and was not discovered by others. Unexpectedly, he was also very lucky in this life. There was no one when he jumped in.
"Where to go now? We can't just wait and watch the show here after we have finally cheated more than 80,000 taels of gold, and we can't participate in the auction!" Standing in the corridor, Yang Yan muttered.
"Who said we can't participate in the auction? Follow me!" Seeing his expression, Nie Yun smiled and walked forward along the road, but he met a group of guards not far away.
"Who are you?" The guards shouted immediately when they saw the two of them.
"How dare you, guests from the second row, room 17, you still want to stop us, hum, you don't want to live!" Ignoring the guards' scolding, Nie Yun raised his eyebrows!
"Sorry, we are also doing what we were told, please come in!" When the guards heard the two people in front of them say the room number, they knew that they must be distinguished guests, so they stopped checking and made way.
Those who can come to participate in the auction are of high status, and they can say the room number smoothly, so they must be guests. These guards are not of high status, and if they annoy the guests, they will be beaten in vain! Therefore, they did not doubt too much.
Nie Yun was so calm, but Yang Yan was not. The two of them sneaked in through the window. They were instinctively afraid when they saw the guards. When they heard the boy's casual words, the guards were scared and dared not check. They admired him again!
After walking along the corridor for a while, Nie Yun found the private room No. 17 in the second row, and knocked on the door casually.
Auction houses often auction some precious items. In order to ensure the personal safety of the bidders, the private rooms are designed to be very safe, and no one can enter after the door is closed.
"Who?" Nie Yu's vigilant voice came from the private room.
"We are from the auction house guard team. We just met two people who claimed to be your companions. We came to ask!" Anyway, there was no one around, so Nie Yun lied.
"My companion? Which one?" Nie Yu relaxed his vigilance when he heard that it was the guard team. He opened the door and looked out, but found that he didn't recognize any of the two people in front of him.
"It's like this..." Nie Yun's purpose was to trick him into opening the door. Seeing that his purpose had been achieved, he strode in with Yang Yan and closed the door casually. "We also got an invitation letter, and it was also this private room. If you don't believe me, look!"
After saying that, his palm wanted to put it in his pocket, as if to take something out.
"You are also in this private room? How is this possible? The auction should not do such a stupid thing!" Nie Yu was stunned and looked over along Nie Yun's palm, as if he wanted to see if his invitation letter was the same as his own.
"It's right here..." Nie Yun wanted to attract his attention. He smiled and suddenly raised his fist and smashed it into his eyes!
Bang!
Before Nie Yu could react, his eyes turned red and turned into panda eyes.
"Ah... Who are you? You dare to attack me. Don't you know that I am a disciple of the inner sect of the Nie family..." Nie Yu was a person in the early stage of the fourth level of the fourth level of the Qi Sea. He was suddenly attacked and jumped back in a hurry, and then yelled loudly.
However, the sound insulation effect of the private room was very good. Although he shouted very loudly, no sound could be heard outside.
"Haha, I knew you were a member of the inner sect of the Nie family, so I beat you up!" How could Yang Yan not see Nie Yun's purpose at this time? He smiled, and Nie Yu just jumped away, and then he felt a gust of wind whistling at the back of his head, "Pah!" He fell directly to the ground!
"Knock him out first!" The two of them attacked at the same time, and Nie Yun rushed to Nie Yun in two steps and punched and kicked him!
Yang Yan is the strength of the fourth middle stage of Qi Hai, and is much stronger than Nie Yu in terms of combat power. Although Nie Yun's cultivation is the same as Nie Yu in his two lives, it is easy to defeat him if he fights alone!
How could Nie Yu be a match for the two men who attacked at the same time and also attacked by surprise? In less than a cup of tea, the arrogant boy who was outside just now became like a pig head, lying flat on the ground, unable to open his eyes!
"Who... are you...?"
After struggling and shouting again, Nie Yu fainted.
He never dreamed that he would suddenly meet two such crazy people when he came to the auction. He didn't know what their purpose was before he fainted...
"Okay, since he came to the auction, he must have brought a lot of money. Use his first!" Seeing Nie Yu fainted, Nie Yun reached out and rummaged through him, and soon took out a stack of silver bills.
"Not bad, worthy of being a branch of the family. Our branch can't even take out 10,000 silver taels, but he has a full 70,000 in his pocket!"
Looking at the silver bills in his hand, Nie Yun's eyes lit up.
The family's outer sect is far inferior to the inner sect in terms of wealth and cultivation conditions. Take the richest branch of the outer sect, Nie Long, for example. After plundering Nie Liu, he only got 15,000 taels, while an inner sect disciple casually took out 70,000 taels. This is the gap between the inner and outer sects.
Of course, Nie Yun didn't know that Nie Yu had taken all the money of their branch in order to buy medicinal materials.
"Okay, you hide Nie Yun in the corner, don't let anyone find out. The auction is about to start. After we buy the items, we will have to hand them over. Don't let anyone see the flaws!" Nie Yun saw that the matter was settled and ordered.
"Well!" Yang Yan now admired the young man in front of him very much, and obeyed his words. He pinched the unconscious Nie Yu with one hand, folded him in half, and stuffed him under the only table in the room.
"..." Seeing his actions, Nie Yun was speechless. Fortunately, this Nie Yu was a cultivator, otherwise, this guy would be almost disabled if he was folded in half!
Just as everything was ready, the auction started.
There was a special window in front of the room, so people could see the items to be auctioned outside the window, but people outside could not see what was going on inside.
After the auction started, buyers could see the items to be auctioned outside through the window, and then add the price on the price-increasing jade card on the table!
The price-increasing jade card and the communication jade card have similar functions. Just print the price you want to offer on it, and the huge jade stone in the middle of the auction house will show your room number and the price you offer!
In this way, the auction can be conducted according to the price, which is both confidential and fair.
"… The auction officially begins. Now the first item is auctioned, a shuttle gold armor, a top-grade armor of the mortal race, which can withstand the attack of a strong man in the true qi realm. The starting price is 500 taels of silver!"
After a long and tedious speech, the auctioneer opened the first auction item.
"Shuttle gold armor? This kind of mortal armor is okay for ordinary people, but it is really too bad for Qi Hai practitioners!" Nie Yun naturally looked down on this kind of stuff, shook his head, and did not participate in the auction.
Maybe the buyers had the same idea as him. In the end, the shuttle gold armor was sold for only 700 taels of silver to a guest in room 9 of row 3.
The dozen items sold afterwards were also mediocre. The best one was a [Heying Flower], which was finally bought by Nie Yun for 1,000 taels of silver.
"Healing holy medicine, thousand-year-old [Di Lotus]! Starting price 30,000 taels of silver!" Just when Nie Yun was not very excited about buying, the auctioneer suddenly shouted.
"What? Thousand-year-old [Di Lotus]? The best medicinal material for the most efficient medicine liquid of Lingxi Refining Body Technique! How could it be here?"
Hearing this shout, Nie Yun's eyes widened and he stood up directly from his seat.
