Chapter 113: Keep quiet and earn a lot of money
The competition is very tight, who knows who the last winner is.”
"I have been standing here for fifteen minutes and have seen over ten Master Gu put quotes on the counter."
“Ah, this is a game for the rich. People like us are not even qualified to compete.”
On the second floor of the tree house, Gu Masters surrounded the central counter; discussing and sighing.
As night approached, the competition for the red steel Relic Gu had reached its peak. Many rank two Master Gu observing in the darkness began to give their quotes in this final hour.
Some Master Gu even made some bids.
“The last winner for this fight is Mo Yan or Chi Shan,” guess someone.
"That's possible. Mo Yan and Chi Shan were both ranked two levels above. With this Relic Gu, they can advance to the peak stage and be on the same level as Qing Shu.”
“In recent years, Gu Yue Qing Shu has been hanging over their heads. I can't believe the two didn't have any thoughts about it. ”
“We can't be sure yet. Not only are we second rank Master Gu, there are even some third rank elders who have made an offer. Just this morning, someone saw Lord Yao Ji make his offer.”
“True, I heard it too. Lord Yao Ji's granddaughter Gu Yue Yao Le will take part in the upcoming Resurrection Ceremony; lord Yao Ji should prepare ahead and pave the way for her grandson.”
“Ah, it would be nice if I had such a loving senior!”
Fang Yuan was among the crowd, his gaze calm as he listened to the discussion.
No one mentioned his name. In the eyes of the people, Fang Yuan was just a lucky child who had just inherited a family asset. In their minds, Fang Yuan was still not on the same level as the likes of Chi Shan, Mo Yan and Qing Shu.
"Big. The less attention I have, the smoother I can get this red steel Relic Gu. But with this repeated purchase, I should have caught his eye. ”
Fang Yuan was confident ninety-nine percent would get this Relic Gu; he began to think of another matter.
If the following events develop according to his expectations, then there will be a perfect ending to his efforts over several days.
That's time.
The leaves and branches on the counter suddenly grew and wrapped tightly around Relic Gu. The green leaves blocked the view of the people and when these leaves reopened, the red steel Relic Gu was no longer there and was replaced by Revert Gu.
Revert Gu looked like a flat, oblong, palm-sized stone. The surface is slightly protruding and smooth, forming an eye pattern. The stone base was flat and felt rough to the touch.
The stone was black while the eye pattern was covered with white stripes.
Approximately every two seconds, the eyes will blink once and the white line that describes the eyeball will rotate, giving the feeling that this stone rolls its eyes.
Return Gu has a special function.
It decomposed the rank two Gu worm into rank one.
For example, if Gu Back was used on Fang Yuan's White Jade Gu, the White Jade Gu would again turn into White Pig Gu and Jade Skin Gu.
This process is called reverse purification.
Fang Yuan glanced at him and immediately lost his interest. He didn't need Revert Gu.
Master Gu in the surroundings started to argue. Return Gu cannot be the focal point of everyone like the red steel Gu Relic.
Everyone was very curious as to who the red steel Relic Gu was going to be.
Some people were looking for Gu Master of the caravan floor and some people were waiting at the main table.
The crowd slowly thinned, but Fang Yuan did not stay away.
“Young master Fang Yuan, please come to the third floor. Our master Jia Fu wants to chat with you.” A voice suddenly entered Fang Yuan's ears.
Fang Yuan was not surprised; there were many types of Gu worms transmitting secret sounds in this world.
He followed the instructions given by the voice and walked to the wall on the third floor.
The branches and leaves were stacked into one and covered the wooden wall.
Gee whiz…..
The twigs and leaves automatically split to the side and revealed a hidden door.
Fang Yuan pushed the door open and saw a beautiful rotating staircase moving upwards.
He walked along the stairs and came to the small study room.
In the study room, Jia Fu was handling several accounts, his hands were writing quickly.
He raised his head when he heard Fang Yuan's footsteps, revealing a scar on his face. He smiled gently, "We meet again, little brother Fang Yuan."
“Honor Mr Jia Fu.” Fang Yuan clasped his hands and saluted.
After Fang Yuan sat down, his left hand pushed the bamboo paper on the table towards Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan glanced over and immediately realized that this bamboo paper stored all the quotes he had made in the past few days. Under each quote is his signature.
He was happy in his heart, it had gone according to his expectations. But on the surface, he wore a doubtful expression as he asked, "I'm not sure what Master Jia Fu wants to show me?"
Jia Fu's smile slightly diminished, his eyes flashing as he looked at Fang Yuan, "This is the quote you made along with the quote you gave to the red steel Relic Gu. I'll be honest, I'm amazed by your business talent. Did you know, each of your Bids is very close to the final selling price. ”
“Although you only managed to buy Black Boar Gu, the Liquor worm and the red steel Relic Gu, your quotation for other Gu worms is only less than ten or so ancient stones. Brother, are you interested in working for me? Jia Fu tried to recruit Fang Yuan.
"Here we go!" Fang Yuan laughed inwardly. He had been bidding repeatedly lately and had deliberately lost most of them; his bid differed from the final price by only ten or so ancient stones. He had only managed to win Black Boar Gu, Liquor worm and Red steel Relic Gu.
And just as he wanted, Jia Fu was interested in the business talent he showed and took the initiative to recruit him.
However, the fact that if Fang Yuan wanted it, he had almost full guarantees of being able to buy all of the Gu worms.
"It's…." Fang Yuan hesitated, then shook his head, "I feel very honored to receive Master Jia Fu's kindness, but I don't want to leave the clan."
“Oh, so like that.” Jia Fu's gaze flashed, “My brother may have some misunderstandings towards me. A year ago, I did doubt you, but after using Mr. Bamboo, the suspicion on you has disappeared. Jia Jin Sheng is my brother, I hope you understand what my mood was like back then. There is other good news, I have invited divine investigator Tie Xue Leng. There is no case that he cannot solve. I'm sure he can definitely investigate the truth and give justice to you.”
"Heavenly investigator Tie Xue Leng." Fang Yuan thought of this name. This is not good news for him.
In this world, there were many magical places and also many incredible methods that could be used to investigate.
When Fang Yuan killed Jia Jin Sheng, he was only ranked one. Even if he knew many methods, he could not use them.
In his memory, Tie Xue Leng had deep cultivation and would not even tolerate the slightest bit of sand in his eyes. He followed the thought of punishing evil and cherishing the right throughout his life. He had a very rich sense of justice and his mind was meticulous. He was very good at finding subtle traces of any clues.
“Divine investigator has a high reputation, I have also heard about him. But when will this divine runic investigator arrive at Qing Mao Mountain?” Fang Yuan put on a look of anticipation and immediately asked.
“It...” Jia Fu awkwardly smiled, “Divine investigators are very busy. From the answer, maybe only a year after.”
Fang Yuan immediately felt relieved, he had plenty of time to prepare.
“My brother, I think about you a lot. I hope you can carefully consider my proposal. ” Jia Fu make attractive offer.
Fang Yuan wisely refused; now was not the best time to leave Qing Mao Mountain.
If he went to a strange environment without sufficient strength, he would definitely be bullied and pushed aside. The caravan was also full of unwritten rules on intimidation and expulsion.
“That's a pity for your talent. How about this, I will give you this token. If there is a day where you want my help, this token will be proof that I will always welcome you.” Jia Fu failed to recruit Fang Yuan, but he did not feel surprised. He had a deep understanding towards the cohesiveness of this type of clan.
If he knew now that Fang Yuan was Jia Jin Sheng's killer, who knew what his expression would be like.
Fang Yuan apologized in embarrassment as he received the token handed over by Jia Fu along with the red steel Relic Gu.
He kept the two items nearby and retreated backwards.
A young female Master Gu was stroking a leaf on the wall, when she suddenly shouted in shock. The twigs and leaves suddenly split open a door.
The door was pushed open from within and Fang Yuan walked out expressionlessly.
"You are you!" The young girl widened her eyes and stared blankly at Fang Yuan who passed by her.
Among Master Gu in the surroundings who saw this scene; some were familiar with this, some gave understanding smiles and some cast admiring gazes.
Fang Yuan did not heed this gaze and walked to the second floor. Some Master Gu was still waiting there, eagerly discussing to whom the red-steel Relic Gu had left.
Some people boldly made a guess while some people gave a little news - "Mo Yan had a mysterious smile as he walked out of the tree house," - "Face Chi Shan was pale," and then the next.
And on top of that, some people promised that the fulan had bought Relic Gu, even making an oath.
Fang Yuan passed by this group of bored people. No one knew that at this moment, the red steel Relic Gu was so close to them.
When Fang Yuan walked out of the tree house, he crashed into Chi Shan.
His face did look unsightly, and beside him, Chi Cheng asked about the existence of the red steel Relic Gu.
Upon seeing Fang Yuan, Chi Cheng snorted and turned his head, deliberately not looking at him. Chi Shan silently nodded his head towards Fang Yuan as a greeting.
Fang Yuan also nodded his head in reply, his face carrying a smile.
The last ray of sunlight shone on the young man's face; he was indeed pleased.
With the red steel Relic Gu, his cultivation would instantly rise by one level.
And there are tokens too.
A year ago, Fang Yuan wanted to establish a friendship with Jia Jin Sheng and relied on him to take part in the large-scale Gu battle competition in the future, reaping the benefits in that period of upheaval.
Unfortunately, life was unpredictable, the end result made Fang Yuan not know whether to laugh or cry — unexpectedly, he ended up killing Jia Jin Sheng with his own hands.
Not important. Without Jia Jin Sheng, relying on Jia Fu had also succeeded. This token was equivalent to the entrance ticket to the large-scale battle competition Gu in the future
