Chapter 70 At the auction, the layout of the county king
Lu Xing brought Xiao Qi, oh, it should be called Yu Nie back to Luoyang City.
Lu Zhongda and his family have already packed their luggage and are about to move into a house they rented today, and they are waiting for Lu Xing and Qiu Wanbai to come back.
After the two parties met, Lu Zhongda and Chen Jianying naturally had to ask about the origin of Yu Nie in Lu Xing's arms.
Of course, it was impossible for Lu Xing to tell the truth, so he pushed Yu Nie's origins to that non-existent school, saying that it was his master's new junior sister, and asked him to take it with him.
It was also fortunate that Yu Nie woke up halfway, and had confessed to Lu Xing in advance, and that Yu Nie had been timidly huddled in Lu Xing's arms, not daring to talk to anyone else, which convinced Lu's father and mother. Mostly.
Needless to say, since they are Lu Xing's junior sisters, Lu Zhongda and Chen Jianying are naturally welcome.
Lu Xueyan also seemed to be very excited about having a little sister to take care of her, she kept lingering around Lu Xing along the way, trying hard to build a good relationship with Yu Nie.
But Yu Nie used to be inferior and cowardly, and was imprisoned by Moxiu for two years, and now she is afraid of strangers.
Coupled with being imprisoned for two years, Yu Nie has absolutely no experience in talking to people, so now she has trouble even talking to Lu Xing and Qiu Wanbai, let alone talking to strangers.
Therefore, on the way from the elixir shop to the new mansion, Lu Xueyan chatted a lot, but Yu Nie didn't reply.
This made Lu Xueyan very discouraged.
"Okay, Xiaoqi just suffered some psychological trauma due to some past events, and is not very used to communicating with strangers."
Seeing Lu Xueyan's sullen look, Lu Xing shook his head and laughed.
"Psychological trauma?"
Both Lu Zhongda and Chen Jianying looked at Yu Nie thoughtfully. They found out just now on the road that this little girl seemed to be too silent. Compared with children of this age, she was extremely abnormal.
The mansion Lu Zhongda chose was still in the North City, but it was changed from the fringe area of the North City to the core area.
Starting from here, it is only two or three streets away from Zhenbao Tower, Baibingfang, Medicine Refining Guild, and the market where various casual cultivators gather and set up stalls.
The house is neither big nor small, with four courtyards, seventeen or eighteen rooms, covering an area of more than 700 square meters.
The houses in the last two courtyards are small two-story buildings, and there is a training ground in the middle courtyard behind the main hall.
In such a large and well-decorated house in this location, even if it is rented, it costs [-] spiritual coins a year.
It can almost be used to buy a slightly inferior middle-grade spiritual weapon.
The furniture and everything are complete, as long as you sell some daily necessities, you can move in directly.
At night, Lu Xing originally planned to let Yu Nie sleep alone or with Qiu Wanbai, but just as Lu Xing said that, Yu Nie immediately grabbed Lu Xing's clothes with a look of fear and fear, and refused to let go no matter what.
There was no other way, Lu Zhongda and Chen Jianying had no choice but to let Lu Xing take Yu Nie to sleep for the night.
It's worth mentioning that Lu Zhongda slept alone again tonight, because Chen Jianying had been hugging Tuantuan since yesterday.
Then Lu Xueyan also wanted to pet pandas, so she shared a room with Chen Jianying tonight.
Lu Zhongda had no choice but to find a side room by himself, wrapped in a quilt, and experience the night of this person.
The night in Luoyang City is so cold...
Regarding what happened to Lu Zhongda, Lu Xing could only look at him with sympathy.
But if he dared to ask Chen Jianying for tuantuan, he would be sent back by Chen Jianying's ears for safekeeping.Therefore, he could only pat Father Lu's shoulder sympathetically, then hugged Yu Nie and took Qiu Wanbai back to his small building.
Four or five days passed smoothly like this. Every day, Lu Xing took Yu Nie around Luoyang City, and checked in at various luck gathering places in Luoyang City.
Qiu Wanbai stayed in the house, protecting the safety of Lu's father, Lu's mother and Lu Xueyan, while stabilizing his cultivation.
Although Lu Zhongda became independent from the Lu family, he is also a fifth-rank alchemist himself. He often goes to the alchemy guild and Zhenbao building to pick up orders for people to make alchemy, which is enough for the family to live on.
Chen Jianying used to be a talisman cultivator, and it happened that Lu Xueyan also had the talent for talisman cultivation, so she simply started teaching Lu Xueyan the knowledge of talisman cultivation.
"Tomorrow is the annual auction of Zhenbao Building. No wonder the city is suddenly bustling..."
On this day, Lu Xing came back from a walk with Yu Nie. He heard Lu Zhongda say this during dinner, and Lu Xing remembered this.
"By the way, I have an invitation for the auction, parents, do you want to go with me?"
Lu Xing is a VIP invitation card presented by the shopkeeper of Zhenbaolou, and he can bring five people with him.
But Lu's father and Lu's mother are not interested.
"Your father's and my savings were already exhausted when we left Baiyang City. It's useless to go there. You can take Yan'er to see the world."
"By the way, you don't need to buy anything for me and your dad, it's a waste of money. You probably don't have much money on you, so you should save some resources to help you."
"If you can break through the Golden Core Realm, it will be the best gift for me and your mother."
Both Chen Jianying and Lu Zhongda said so, and Lu Xing couldn't force it.
So, the next morning, Lu Xing held Yu Nie in one hand, followed by Qiu Wanbai and Lu Xueyan, and walked into the gate of Zhenbao Building.
……
In Tianzi No. [-] box of the auction, two magnificent women were talking softly.
Wearing a red dress, with high temples, a golden phoenix hairpin was inserted obliquely into the temples, Gu Nishang, who had a peach blossom face, raised her legs and joked to the young woman sitting opposite.
"Why, you haven't given up on your ideal of being an empress yet?"
Dressed in a water-blue palace attire, her hair at the temples was bound by a jade belt at the back of her head, her phoenix eyes were long and narrow, her lips were reddish, and her skin was snowy. Ji Ningyu, with a noble and elegant temperament, replied with a flat expression.
"Although the recovery of spiritual energy has brought many systems back to the past, the king of Chujiang is also a woman. Does he also think that women cannot be emperors like those people?"
"Whatever you think, but I will never support you."
Gu Nishang shook her head. It's not that she doesn't recognize women as emperors. If Ji Ningyu has that talent, she will definitely support her.
However, in Gu Nishang's view, in a peaceful era, Ji Ningyu might be able to be a successful king, but she must not become an empress in this era of undercurrents.
It was not the first time that Ji Ningyu was rejected by Gu Nishang, her expression remained unchanged, and her eyes turned to the upcoming auction below.
"I heard that the King of Chujiang told the people in the Zhenbao Tower to cooperate with you in carrying out a certain plan. This made me a little curious. Can the King of Chujiang satisfy my curiosity?"
Gu Nishang looked around the auction below, with a sneer on his face.
"It's nothing, I just plan to catch a bunch of mice..."
