Chapter 193 Treasure Gathering
Opening a heavy curtain embroidered with dark patterns, the venue was densely packed with people.

Because there are only ten places for class C, they are arranged to be seated behind class B.

At this time, the high-ranking officials and nobles in the second-tier area had already been waiting impatiently, but there were many rules in the underground auction. In order to get the items they dreamed of, they abide by the rules and dare not make noise or move around at will.

The lords and wives who are usually arrogant and arrogant, are all sitting quietly in their seats like quails, occasionally exchanging a few words with their companions in a very low voice.

"You guys sit here."

The guard pointed to the two gaps at the back, "Remember, don't move around at will!"

With a big hand, Xiao Ruofeng put Su Qingtian into a seat, and he took out five taels of silver from his waist, and stuffed it into the guard's hands without any trace.

"Dare to ask the official, what should I do if I want to go to the toilet?"

Squeezing the silver in his palm, the guard stretched out a finger and pointed in the direction of a small door next to him.

"That's where it is, just go quietly."

"Thank you, sir." Xiao Ruofeng bowed his hands and sent off the two guards very politely.

After their figures disappeared behind the curtain, Xiao Ruofeng sat down beside Su Qingtian.

Although the rules of the underground auction are strict, there are many courtesies that should be given.

On the small table in front of you are four or five kinds of pastries and two pots of tea.

Randomly picked up a pot and poured two cups, just as the tea flowed out of the spout, the refreshing fragrance also rushed into the nasal cavity.

It is indeed a top-notch Maojian, and the other pot must be a good one.

In the past in the Upper Realm, every time the little master uncle came back from exploring the small world, he would bring back the best food there for Su Qingtian, so the little girl didn't think there was anything to these things at all.

On the contrary, the five-color pastries in front of her were more attractive to her. Although Xiao Yezi served a full table of brunch, she couldn't stop her from being hungry, and she was already feeling a little hungry.

Picking a piece of pastry that was pleasing to the eye, she stuffed it into her mouth, and after taking a bite, Su Qingtian narrowed her eyes happily.

Don't say it, it's really delicious.

Compared with the rougher factions in Fengcheng, the pastries in Beijing are indeed exquisite.

The palate is rich in layers, and the feeling of entrance is relatively delicate.

Su Qingtian compared in her heart while eating, and planned to choose the most delicious one to take back with her in her pocket.

Compared with Su Qingtian's leisurely, Xiao Ruofeng who was on the side never let go of his vigilance.

Through the eyes of the mask, he scanned the heads of people moving in front of him over and over again, trying to see the faces of these people clearly, whether there were people he knew or was familiar with.

But those who can come to this underground auction are not idle people. For the sake of their own safety, most people choose to hide their faces. After all, these people are either pregnant with precious treasures or rich in wealth, and they don't want to be targeted afterwards.

If the result of provoking a murder and stealing treasures, wouldn't the gains outweigh the losses.

Some big families are very cautious and bring many disciples together, while those C-class people who have no family power choose to hire thugs to ensure their own safety.

Everyone unanimously chose to act in a low-key manner. In order not to attract attention, even the carriages parked outside were completely covered with thick curtains.

Only Xiao Ruofeng and Su Qingtian, who were wearing ghost masks, were very special. Such conspicuous masks would become the focus of attention with just a glance.

Because of this, soon after the two sat down, they attracted the attention of some people in the second class.

"I said brother, why did you come here with such a mask?"

Sitting next to Xiao Ruofeng, the fat man wearing the Zhu Bajie mask leaned over and said in a low voice, "This mask is too eye-catching, it's easy to be spotted!"

"My niece likes it."

Xiao Ruofeng noticed the kindness in the other party's words, and naturally replied softly, "She likes it, so I will follow her."

As he spoke, he reached out and wiped the jujube stuffing hanging from the corner of the little girl's mouth.

The fat man glanced at Su Qingtian who was busy eating, and changed the subject.

"Which treasure are you here for today?"

As he said that, the fat man turned his head to see that there was no one approaching on Thursday, and then lowered his voice by three minutes, "Isn't it also for the Bamei screen?"

The question was abrupt, obviously the fat man was very concerned about the screen, and he was afraid that there would be too many people robbing him, so he would feel more at ease if he could exclude one person.

"No."

Xiao Ruofeng flatly denied it.

"It's not good!"

The fat man patted his chest reassuringly, and grinned, "I came here for it. I heard that as soon as night falls, the music of nature will automatically spread from this screen, and it will wind around the beam leisurely and gracefully for three days without end!"

"Brother, do you know why it is called the Eight Beauty Screen?"

Seeing Fatty's excited face, Xiao Ruofeng shook his head lightly, "I don't know."

Except for the medicinal material he wanted, Xiao Ruofeng hadn't investigated the other treasures.

"Because there are eight vivid beauties drawn on it!"

As if he already had a screen, the fat man moved closer, "If one of the eight beauties is favored, she can still come out of the screen and fall in love with me."

"Even if it's for the beauty, it's worth spending the money!"

He does not mean that.

Su Qingtian took a bite of the mung bean cake, then turned to look at the fat uncle.

"If a screen can be so magical, why not offer it to the emperor but put it up for auction?"

The fat man who asked in a soft voice was speechless.

"Or, maybe there are more treasures like this in the palace!"

This was the best reason he could think of, but Su Qingtian's words finally calmed down the talkative fat man, and stopped dragging Xiao Ruofeng.

"I don't know where His Royal Highness King Jin found so many rare treasures."

An old man sitting behind them spoke, but his voice obviously did not match his old face. It seemed that he was wearing a layer of human skin mask, and the dividing line hidden in the neckline when he raised his head was also very obvious.

"Stone koi that can come to life when placed in water, as well as ice grass leaves that are rare for thousands of years on Lingshan, and secret treasures that can only be dug in the center of the desert."

"These things are much more powerful than the auction five years ago."

As soon as the topic started, several people whispered to each other.

Xiao Ruofeng was also secretly making up his mind when he heard the people around him talk about the magic of today's lot.

No matter what, even if he pays all his money and assets, he still has to get the medicinal materials to treat his elder brother!

Su Qingtian could have detoxified Xiao Hanyue directly, but the eldest uncle is a mortal after all, and forcibly detoxifying has strong side effects, which may not be helpful for his future recovery.

It's better to wait than to force the seedlings to grow, because there is indeed a blind medicine in this auction, which can remove all the toxins without letting the uncle get hurt.

This is the main reason why Su Qingtian came here with Xiao Ruofeng.

If the peerless medicinal materials were not suitable medicines, she would definitely not let the third uncle spend money in vain.

"Bang!"

The clear sound of the gong made the whole venue instantly quiet.
