- Chapter 199 Bloodbath at the Auction House
The hall of the auction venue was magnificent. The auctioneer’s broken body was lying on the stage due to the “Yin Thunder”, making a “ho-ho” sound from his throat, like an overwhelmed old wooden bellows.
The blood he sprayed splashed on the bright red curtain, and the blood stains covered part of the roses woven with gold threads, giving it a broken beauty.
The sudden change on the stage made the hybrids in the guest seats unable to react for a moment, but now they finally realized that this Taoist priest was from the auction house. They directed and acted in a play, but they did not expect something unexpected. actors enter.
The middle-aged Taoist priest stood in front of the guards, and naturally understood that at this moment, he had been exposed, but the importance of the Sun-Tie Stone forced him to take the initiative to expose it – the Sun-Tie Stone can be bought by anyone, but it must not be bought by anyone. Back into the hands of the girl’s family.
They had already suffered heavy losses in order to get this valuable alchemical treasure out. The family, which had already been bloodbathed once, was even worse. They were hoping that they could crack the secret behind the sun stone and revive the family. If it was bought by other families, they could rely on the information. The advantage comes from the oriole behind, but if it is snatched back by the girl’s family, then their information advantage will be a joke in front of this family that has kept the sun stone for hundreds of thousands of years.
What’s more, if two auction items are robbed in a row within a few years, the reputation of Sotheby’s Auction House and the Iron Rose family will be completely ruined. Sotheby’s will no longer need to open it in the future. However, after two heavy losses, Including him, there was not much available combat power in the family, so he could only bite the bullet and take action.
“who are you?”
A man dressed as a middle-aged Taoist priest stood in front of the guard and asked with a cold face.
The girl gritted her teeth and stared at him, her golden eyes filled with anger.
“Breaked into the Iron Rose family’s property, held the auctioneer hostage, and attempted to steal the auction items. No matter who you are, we have the right to execute you.” The middle-aged Taoist priest changed the topic, “If we hadn’t guessed that you would make a scene, During the auction, I set up a smoke screen in advance and staged a show to confuse you, and maybe you will succeed!”
Lu Mingfei and other guests in the audience raised their eyebrows, thinking to themselves, how the hell is this okay? It’s obvious that you guys were ruined in the middle of your performance, are you going to have to come back? Do you think I’m stupid or blind?
“Shameless!”
The injured girl shouted angrily. She didn’t know whether she saw that the middle-aged Taoist priest was telling a lie or she truly believed the “smoke screen” they had laid.
“Now is not the time to interrogate you. All distinguished guests are still waiting for the auction to continue.” The middle-aged Taoist priest turned his head slightly and ordered the guards around him, “Break her knees and drag her down.”
The girl’s face changed slightly and she wanted to get up to dodge, but her movements were hampered by her injuries. The two guards behind the middle-aged Taoist priest immediately slightly adjusted the muzzle of their guns and pulled the trigger.
Accompanied by the explosion of gunpowder, the steel-core projectiles spun out in the erupting flames, tearing the air and pointing directly at the girl’s knees.
From the moment the Taoist priest said he wanted to smash her knees, she gritted her teeth to avoid screaming out in pain. She stared at the middle-aged Taoist priest and the guard behind him, with the nerve reaction speed of an ordinary mixed-race species. With her physical condition, she could neither see nor dodge bullets clearly, not to mention she was still injured. In this case, there was no need to waste all her efforts trying to dodge. If she was shot twice, she would be shot twice, but she couldn’t be weak!
She was prepared to face the pain of a bullet piercing her kneecap, but at the same moment as the gun muzzle emitted flames, a bright silver stream of light also broke into the edge of her field of vision, and then blocked her body at a speed that she had no time to react. In front of him, there were two very short collision sounds of gold and iron!
Because the speed was too fast, the bright silver light left a long and narrow afterimage in the field of vision of the girl and all the guests, extending all the way from the backstage to the front of the girl.
It wasn’t until two deformed projectiles fell on the stage and rolled down that others saw clearly that what was suspended in front of the girl was a simple-looking long sword!
It was a slender sword with a dark hilt, a bright silver blade, and a sharp edge as cold as autumn water. In the dark venue, it seemed like a ray of moonlight splitting through the darkness.
The more knowledgeable hybrids in the field immediately realized what happened – Sequence 82, Word Spirit·Sword Control!
This word spirit allows the releaser to control metal products within his own domain, showing a power similar to the sword fairy who controls flying swords in Chinese mythology. Although most hybrids can only control some light metal blades due to their bloodline, The strong ones among them can indeed control flying swords made of solid iron.
At the critical moment, someone used this word spirit to control a sword to fly out from the passage backstage, blocking the bullet that hit the girl’s knee.
The mixed-races in the audience subconsciously exclaimed when they realized what had happened – using sword control to control flying swords to block bullets? Moreover, the sword flew out almost at the same time as the bullet was fired. This kind of speed and accuracy is definitely the top level among “Sword Control” holders in the world!
The faces of some of the older ones were even more frightened – although they were not of the same age, such a powerful sword control still made a person appear in their minds uncontrollably, a person who was once famous throughout the European mixed race world. of Chinese.
“who?!”
The girls and the audience were not the only ones who saw the sword light flying from the backstage. The middle-aged Taoist priest suddenly turned his head and looked backstage. While shouting fiercely, the “Yin Thunder” of the Yanling Spirit erupted. Although the distance was a bit far, but with his bloodline, Yin Lei’s shock wave still has some lethality at this distance.
Even if the opposite A-level hybrid is hit by the Yin Lei’s shock wave, he will be seriously injured. Moreover, although the sword spirit is quite lethal, it does not have any large-scale defense means. A few iron pieces can block it. He is already a master among masters at firing bullets, and there is no way he can block the large-area shock wave of Yin Lei.
The fact was as he expected. Wherever the Yin Thunder shock wave passed, the wooden boards between the stage and the backstage broke one after another. The wood chips were carried by the shock wave and roared at the figures at the entrance of the backstage passage, and then…
The middle-aged Taoist priest rubbed his eyes vigorously, the mixed-race people in the audience also rubbed their eyes, and the girl on the stage opened her mouth slightly.
What did they just see? !
The figure standing at the entrance of the backstage passage just waved his sleeves, and the strong wind brought by the wide cuffs offset the shock wave of the thunder? !
With the hearing of the mixed race, they even heard the sound of the wood chips and wood chips wrapped in the Yin Thunder shattering again in the collision of the two forces!
“There is an old saying that people die for money and birds die for food…”
The figure backstage spoke indifferently, with a voice like the snow that never melts on the top of a mountain. An invisible chilling atmosphere suddenly spread throughout the venue. Being in it suddenly gave people the illusion of falling into an ice cave, and even breathing was subconscious. Let go and slow down.
“It seems that Sotheby’s Auction House really wants to die.”
The figure stepped on the floor that was twisted and cracked in the confrontation of air waves, and slowly walked out of the shadows in the background. He was dressed in white clothes as white as snow, his face was like a crown jade, but his eyebrows were as sharp as swords. His long black hair was tied up with a silver crown, revealing There is a scabbard with a dark gold cloud pattern on the back, and one arm is holding a transparent glass box. In the box is a Dunhuang mural that was just auctioned.
“That’s… a Chinese swordsman!”
Some eagle-eyed guests recognized her outfit and exclaimed in low voices.
“Isn’t this someone who was also invited to act?”
“I’m really curious how to hire a master who can block bullets with his ‘Sword Control’.”
“It’s another lot from China, and it’s a mixed breed from China. Sotheby’s is probably going to be unlucky this time.”
“Be careful, you should be in bad luck again.”
The whispers in the guest seats reached the ears of the middle-aged Taoist priest, making his face look even more ugly.
In fact, he was also beating a drum in his heart. He had never seen any hybrid who could use strong wind to offset his Yin Thunder just by relying on physical strength. Even if it only offset the Yin Thunder that had exceeded the maximum range of power, it was incredible enough. ——What a strong physical fitness!
If the opponent didn’t show his sword control, he could also guess that he used immortality or bronze throne to strengthen the body’s word spirit, but now…
To be honest, he was actually very worried and his scalp was a little numb, but as one of the current backbones of the family, he had to hold on to his face. Now that the Iron Rose family’s secrets have been leaked, he had to hold on to his face. , if you can’t even save your face and let it slip, the consequences will probably be difficult to recover.
“Your Excellency suddenly broke into the Iron Rose family’s industrial territory. Can I take this as a provocation to the Iron Rose family?”
Decades of life experience made the middle-aged Taoist priest’s tone sound majestic, without showing the slightest tremor.
“I didn’t intend to provoke…”
The swordsman shook his head slightly, and the middle-aged Taoist priest breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that things seemed to be turning around. Some people in the audience who were happy to see the Iron Rose family defeated looked disappointed.
The swordsman pointed simultaneously, and the long sword floating quietly in front of the girl curled up with a bright sword light, turning into a bright silver storm, rolling up the bright red curtain and the golden roses symbolizing the glory of the Iron Rose family into the sky. The fragments shattered the relief that had just arisen in the heart of the middle-aged Taoist priest.
The sword light shattered the curtain and smashed the glass box on the stage. The tip of the sword picked up the sun stone inside and flew it to the swordsman. The sun stone fell. The swordsman caught the sun stone with his hand. It was narrow and sharp. He glanced at the livid Taoist priest and slowly spoke out the second half of the sentence.
“I’m ready to humiliate you.”
“you!”
The middle-aged Taoist priest shouted angrily and pointed at the swordsman. The guards behind him all adjusted their guns and pressed the trigger lightly with their fingertips, ready to shoot at the swordsman at any time.
Then the middle-aged Taoist priest’s eyes flashed with silver light, and his neck felt cold, followed by tearing pain.
He retracted his outstretched hand in panic and tried to cover his neck. As soon as his arm moved, the hand broke at the wrist and fell to the ground.
Severe pain hit his cerebral cortex. He subconsciously ignored the relatively less painful throat wound and pinched the broken wrist with his other hand to stop the bleeding.
But after all, he was a person who had experienced life and death crises. The middle-aged Taoist priest soon felt that although his throat was cut open, fortunately, the carotid artery and trachea were not scratched…
Just as the thought of thankfulness arose, a series of “uh” sounds suddenly came from behind him, and warm liquid sprayed on his back.
The Taoist priest turned his head with a stiff neck. All the guards behind him covered their necks, their eyes popped out of their sockets, and large amounts of blood spurted out from the wounds, and then they fell one by one.
The long sword that killed all the guards behind the middle-aged Taoist priest in a moment was suspended in front of the swordsman, and its cold light was reflected in everyone’s eyes.
“You put our things here for auction, and I came to get them back and collect some interest on the way, but you pointed your hands and guns at me.” The swordsman hid the sun stone in his sleeve robe with his backhand, and looked at Manchu The middle-aged Taoist priest with a frightened face said in a cold tone, “A rat has skin, a human has no manners, a human has no manners, what’s the use of immortality?”
“Are those four lines of poetry poetry? What do they mean?”
Someone in the audience asked in a low voice.
“I know, it’s a passage from the Book of Songs written in China thousands of years ago. It probably means…it seems to say that people who are rude should die?”
Someone replied with an uncertain tone.
“No way? So scary?! Then will it be considered impolite if we look at him like this?”
As soon as these words came out, most of the eyes in the hall turned away from the swordsman in panic, and most of the rest were also uneasy. Only the girl who fell down on the stage stared blankly at the swordsman singing the Book of Songs softly.
“Can I still leave?”
The swordsman looked at the girl and asked.
“able.”
The girl nodded. After relaxing for a while, her physical condition was not so bad. She swayed slightly to support her body.
“Come with me.”
The swordsman turned and walked out of the hall. The girl staggered to follow his footsteps, and the middle-aged Taoist priest stood there and did not dare to stop her.
Walking to the main entrance of the hall, the swordsman turned his head and glanced at the middle-aged Taoist priest. The sword beside him once again turned into silver light and swept away, shattering his Taoist robe into pieces, leaving only the tattered inner garment.
“You are not worthy of wearing these clothes,” the swordsman half-turned his head and looked at him, “I will leave you alive and go back and tell your family that if this happens again, you will become extinct.”
The middle-aged Taoist priest thought that the family’s reinforcements were coming soon. With the terrifying power displayed by this Chinese swordsman, the family’s reinforcements might just come as a gift. When the sword light goes out, the family might not have much fighting power left.
It’s better to send this plague god away as soon as possible!
Thinking of this, the middle-aged Taoist priest gritted his teeth and nodded honestly. Then he saw the swordsman in white take out the sun-fastening stone from his sleeve robe.
What is he going to do? Are you going to give it back to us?
As soon as the middle-aged Taoist priest had this idea, the orange-red light cluster in the center of the sun-chained stone in the swordsman’s hand suddenly lit up. The light passed through the transparent crystal shell, as if a layer of orange-red flames appeared on the surface of the sun-chained stone… No! That’s really the orange flame!
Thin orange-red flames burned on the sun stone, and then gathered upwards. In the blink of an eye, they turned into a fireball the size of a basketball, and then turned into a dazzling golden red. The extremely intense light seemed to be really a small sun, making it It’s hard to look straight at.
The golden-red fireball suspended above the Sunstone in the swordsman’s hand was still expanding, but the heat was tightly restrained. The girl standing next to him could not feel the slightest heat wave, but her eyes when she looked at him were full of shock.
Why can he use our clan’s sacred objects? Why does the fire he conjures with the holy objects turn golden-red? !
The swordsman stood there and shook out the fireball released by the sun-chaining stone in his hand. The fireball turned into a fiery snake in the air, passed through the gate, and flew along the left passage to the end, followed by a violent explosion and a heat wave on his face.
And the screams mixed with the explosion and the smell of burnt flesh in the heat wave – those were the reinforcements of the Iron Rose family that had been wiped out without even showing their faces.
The middle-aged Taoist priest’s legs went weak, and he knelt on the ground as if his spine had been ripped out. The wound on his neck was still oozing blood.
The swordsman put away the sun-binding stone again, turned around and walked out of the door, leaving along the passage on the right. His steps were not fast, but each step was far away, and the girl behind him had to run to catch up with him.
The swordsman left, and the audience gradually became uproar. Lu Mingfei leaned on his chair and closed his eyes to rest.
With the runes on the small map Lu Mingze had given him before, he could see the location of the reinforcements at a glance. As soon as the sun-chaining stone fell into the hands of the swordsman’s projection, he felt the deep and rich fire energy and water in it. Xing Zhiqi simply took advantage of its cover, mixed the flames of light into the flames it drew, and sent away all the reinforcements in one fell swoop.
As for whether there will be psychological barriers to murder…
Although he seems to be a bit perverted and cold-blooded, for a person who has been tortured and killed thousands or tens of thousands of times, and who has also tortured and killed his opponents at least hundreds of times, it is really difficult to let someone kill someone again. He has some violent psychological fluctuations – he has long been used to it.
…
Controlling the swordsman’s projection to leave the underground auction house, the swordsman’s projection and the girl walked out of the elevator of the above-ground villa. With a thought, Lu Mingfei killed the two mixed-race security guards at the door with flying swords – their clothes had the emblem of the Iron Rose family on them. .
With just a Xuanzhao monk, even if he has one of the seventy-two magical powers of Earth Demon, it is still very difficult to display such a powerful swordsmanship at this stage – but what the swordsman is holding now is actually a disguise. The appearance of the Mingjian.
As a weapon with alchemical vitality, Si Ming is a perfect magic weapon even in that world. With his extremely solid Xuanzhao cultivation, coupled with swordsmanship, one of the earthly evil powers, and Si Ming, this magic weapon, he can do this This step is not difficult.
The only problem is that even if Lu Mingfei has saved as much time as possible, he still doesn’t have much mana left in him, at least not enough for him to bring the stone slab to a safe place. After all, it is a piece of thirty or forty centimeters on a side. Although the slate is not heavy to hold due to the physical fitness of the hybrid, it is substantial in size and can easily be found by Thorsby and Iron Rose if it is hidden casually.
Moreover, what is precious about it is the knowledge recorded on it, and its material itself is ordinary, so it cannot be treated as a spiritual object by the Book of Heaven…
Fortunately, he had already thought of a compromise.
Under the godly gaze of the girl next to him, Lu Mingfei controlled the swordsman clone to lead her out of the villa, then turned to look at her: “You are here to grab something, is there anyone to help you?”
“some!”
The girl nodded.
“Leave your contact information, phone number or msn.”
Swordsman Projection said with a cold face.
“ah?”
The girl was stunned for a moment, then read out a string of numbers quickly.
“Is this why you’re here?”
The swordsman’s projection took out the sun stone from his sleeve robe, and the girl’s eyes lit up.
“Are you willing to sell it to us? As long as the price is affordable, we will pay it immediately!”
The girl did not expect that the other party would give her the Sunstone for free, as long as it could be exchanged for money, gold or other things, it would be enough.
“Leave the thing with me for now. You can keep it safe for me.” The swordsman threw the glass box from the Dunhuang stone wall to the girl. “I will contact you later. The storage fee will be the price of this stone.”
The stone slabs in the Mogao Grottoes cannot be stored in the Heavenly Book due to material issues, but the Sun Shuan Stone is indeed a real spiritual object. When recycling the swordsman’s projection, he can put it into the Heavenly Book together with Siming. He can simply ask the girl to help him keep the stone slabs in the future. He comes to get it again.
He wasn’t worried that the slate would be thrown away. The Sunstone was obviously more precious and far more important to the girl than the slate.
Secondly…he had secretly left a mark on the girl. If she dared to roll up something and run away, Lu Mingfei would let her know what cruelty is.
After making an agreement with the girl in confusion and asking her name, Lu Mingfei controlled the swordsman’s projection to turn into an afterimage, away from the girl’s sight, and connected the swordsman’s projection with Siming and Shuanri Shiyi. And take back the Book of Heaven.
This chapter is 5,400 words long…
It seems that the drowsy side effects of the vaccine have not completely disappeared. Even though I slept for a long time yesterday, I am still drowsy today…
So there’s only so much ragu today!
