Chapter 53 (1/2)
Remembering when Chen ShaoBai had left, he said his goal was at the Stars of the Sea. An Zheng did not care much because he just believed half of Chen ShaoBai's words. However, An Zheng was not too far away from the Stars of the Sea because it was right in the kitten's eyes.
Since he came to the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard, Shan Ye's eyes began to move. However, no one cared about the kitten's eyes. They just cared about the upcoming treasures. This time, the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard just invited some famous people who were good at treasure examining. Maybe it was to value the treasures so that they could not be auctioned off too cheaply.
Gao SanDuo was seen as a famous person in the Illusory Perennial Domicile. He had wide connections, so his voice quite influential. However, since the TianQi Sect competed with the Illusory academy, he and Zheng ZhuangBi now seemed to be rivals. This showed that Gao SanDuo was an honest person, and he was also knightly. Old Huo had done him a favor, and he immediately repaid it. He did not also care to whose toe's he would step on when he repaid the favor.
– ”How unfortunate it is!”
Gao SanDuo opened the Mountain and River fan:
– ”Before I met Zheng ZhuangBi, no bad luck had come to me. But now when I have just met him, it seems to be so.”
Du ShouShou:
– ”It's not really a bad luck. Maybe it would be a good luck instead.”
Gao SanDuo:
– ”Why do you say so?”
Du ShouShou:
– ”Isn't that s.h.i.+t very smelly? But it is said that stepping on s.h.i.+t is a good luck. Last time, San ye kicked on Zheng ZhuangBi's face, so it may be your lucky today.”
Gao SanDuo clasped his hands:
– ”It makes sense. However, other people call me Gao ye or Du ye, why do you call me San ye?”
Du ShouShou:
– ”Now I understood why An Zheng called you Mister Gao.”
Gao SanDuo laughed. His personality was naturally open-minded. Throughout the years, he had been living in the underworld. Although he was quite wickeder, he was still open-minded. In his eyes, An Zheng and Du ShouShou were lovely little brothers, especially An Zheng who was very willing to good deeds, and people in the underworld did like those who were willing to good deeds.
– ”What's position of the boss of this Value a.s.sembly Courtyard? How can she always find good items?”
Du ShouShou asked.
Gao SanDuo said with low voice:
– ”I have heard that the son-in-law of this Value a.s.sembly Courtyard does not live in the Illusory Perennial Domicile but in the outside. People say that the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard had been established by one of the Sixteen Kingdoms of You Yan in the purpose of earning money for the army. The army usually attacked and conquered land, and that they sometimes found treasures was normal. Therefore, the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard invited the outsiders to come to examine the treasures. Because they belong to the army, they only know how to conquer not in evaluating treasures.
– ”I have heard that the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard owned many branches, and the biggest branch was in the capital of the Yan Kingdom.”
When Gao SanDuo said this, he looked like an intellectual person.
Du ShouShou:
– ”No wonder they always find good items. Moreover, they like to sell them in the Illusory Perennial Domicile. No one manages this place, so money can do everything here. If in another place, causing trouble with its landlord is a big problem.”
Gao SanDuo nodded:
– ”It's the way that it goes. Moreover, the Illusory Perennial Domicile has many hidden dragons and crouching tigers, so it is fearless of unsellable items.”
While they were talking, there were many beautiful girls in skirt queuing up to get in. Those girls owned various kinds of appearances, voluptuous, tall, or thin. They wore uniform skirts which were pleated up to their thighs. Therefore, they did attract other people when they moved. They were twelve in total and were divided into two lines coming from behind. They all smiled happily.
However, An Zheng recognized that their shoulders did not move while they were moving. Moreover, they moved very steadily, so they must be martial trainers. It was hard to say if they could practice, but they all could reach the maximum level of body refining.
Zhuang FeiFei was walking in last. When she had just showed up, the whole stage seemed to be brightened up.
– ”Great Mistress, you are really the best treasure in this Value a.s.sembly Courtyard.”
Someone shouted out.
Another fatty shouted out:
– ”Don't value her by money. If I could buy her by money, I would not need to be uneasy like this.”
Zhuang FeiFei smiled. Although her face was half hidden, people could still feel her charm. People did not also know why she always hid her face.
– ”I invited you, the seniors, to come here in order to examine the treasures not me.”
Zhuang FeiFei bowed down to pay her respects:
– ”That the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard could be in good condition is by your help. Therefore, today, I hope you will help us more, and we will have enough remuneration for you all.”
Right on time, Zheng ZhuangBi pointed his fan to An Zheng:
– ”Other people are famous for their treasure examining skills, but why did you let such a little boy get in here? Is it possible that the door of the Value a.s.sembly Courtyard has not been closed? Such a kind of animal like him can also come here. Be careful, for he will dirty this place.”
At first Zhuang FeiFei smiled and said sorry to An Zheng, and then she told Zheng ZhuangBi:
– ”What's wrong with you, Mr. Vice Dean? Why did you get mad by no means? Although you and An Zheng have some misunderstandings, it would be better for you to be peaceful in this place. All the people had been invited by me, so please don't break us up.”
Zheng ZhuangBi had a cold sigh:
– ”People here are specialists in treasure examining, so I do admire them. However, on which basis can such a little boy rely on in order to compare with us? Is it because of his dummy t.i.tle 'sect head'? They are just children in a playground. Is it possible for you to recognize them?”
With that saying, not only An Zheng and Du ShouShou got angry but also Zhuang FeiFei did.
– ”Who are you aiming at? Me or An ye?”
She asked coldly.
Zheng ZhuangBi:
– ”It is not you, obviously. My eyes just don't have those children in them. It is like I am looking at a table which has been well-prepared with all kinds of precious food, and then I suddenly see a piece of dog s.h.i.+t in one of the plates of food. So, how can I eat?”
An Zheng smiled:
– ”Mister vice dean is really honest. Normally, when seeing dog s.h.i.+t, not many people can think if it is eatable.”
Zheng ZhuangBi was surprised for a long while, and then he said angrily:
– ”Do you think I dare not touch you? In this Illusory Perennial Domicile, I can still control you.”
An Zheng held the kitten in his arms. The kitten looked at Zheng ZhuangBi and said meow. The bronze bell on its neck moved a little.
Because of the bronze bell, Zheng ZhuangBi was quite scared. Keep yelling? He was really afraid that An Zheng would get mad and throw the bronze bell out. Even a pract.i.tioner of the Desire Internment Stage like Devil Hand Jiu ye had been killed by the bronze bell, much less Zheng ZhuangBi who was still far away from the Desire Internment Stage.
– ”Hmmm!”
