Douluo's Gourd

Baidi City is located in the eastern part of the Far North.

The spacious avenues make it the only way from the middle of the extreme north to the towns in the east, and the geographical location is extremely good.

Therefore, Baidi City, as one of the largest cities in the eastern part of the Far North, was selected as the host city of the Winter Fair this year.

At the city gate, dozens of heavily armed soldiers stood on both sides of the city wall, their sharp eyes constantly scanning the passers-by.

The deterrent force brought by the soldiers made everyone enter the city in an orderly manner, and no one dared to make trouble.

Unlike Heping Town, there was no entry fee for entering the city this time, and the city gate was built high and large, so the caravan quickly entered the city through the small gate on the right.

The caravan stopped in a relatively empty square, Wang Xiaofeng and the rest of the mercenaries got the other half of the contract from Victor.

Arriving at Baidi City also means that this employment is over.

"Doctor He, this is your reward, although it doesn't match your worth." Victor took out a bag of gold coins from his pocket and handed it to Wang Xiaofeng, smiling wryly.

After leaving Heping Town, they were attacked by herds of beasts several times.The worst time was when a group of snow wolves surrounded and attacked me while the snow was sweeping.

Due to the harsh environment and the sudden incident, five people in the caravan were seriously injured on the spot and [-] people were slightly injured.The two most seriously injured had their trachea bitten through, bleeding profusely, but in the end they were dragged back from the gate of hell by Wang Xiaofeng.

Outside, it was icy and snowy, and humans and beasts were fighting with their lives.But under such circumstances, in a dilapidated carriage, a miracle of life was staged in that extremely small space.

Seeing his familiar buddy come back to life from a near-death state, and the sound of his heart beating again, Victor felt that he would never forget it in his life.

"Without everyone's concerted efforts, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get out of the extreme northern plain." Wang Xiaofeng didn't refuse the other party's reward, and took the bag and weighed it. Judging from the weight, it should be around [-] gold coins.

The lords of the Far North did not recognize the golden soul coin currency system of the empire and the Wuhun Temple, but used the ancient gold coin system long ago.

Gold soul coins have low gold content, but they are more corrosion-resistant and lighter. On the contrary, gold coins are heavy and not easy to carry, but their advantage is high gold content.

A gold coin with a weight of 100 grams has a gold content of about 10%, which means that 500 gold coins are equivalent to five kilograms of gold.

Wang Xiaofeng was very satisfied, this part of the gold coins was not included in the previously agreed remuneration, it was considered an extra reward.

"Then let's bid farewell here, and we will meet again when we have a chance." Wang Xiaofeng cupped his hands at Victor, picked up the sack full of medicinal herbs, turned around and squeezed into the crowd, and then disappeared quickly.

"It would be great if I could meet you two years ago." Victor shook his head, and led the caravan to another street.

Wang Xiaofeng followed the crowd, walked slowly towards the end of the spacious street paved with bluestone, which was the location of the trade fair.

The fluctuations of mental power that ordinary people can't feel slowly spread out, secretly and silently. Compared with the previous few days, it has improved. Even if the mental power is stronger than him, he can follow the spiritual power to catch him as the source.

The disadvantage is that it is not as efficient as the unscrupulous scanning before. It is estimated that it will take three days to completely scan the White Emperor City.

For example, a certain Contra who was invited by several families to guard him had a headache and could only look at the hair on the back of his hand. Every 5 minutes he should be stimulated to stand up, but he couldn't catch the troublemaker.

Gradually approaching the huge trading market, the surprise on Wang Xiaofeng's face became more and more intense.

For this trade fair, Baidi City obviously spent a lot of money and directly built another city in the city.

Seeing the huge monster swallowing up the continuous flow of people like a bottomless pit, Wang Xiaofeng also quickened his pace, and his body was like a fish swimming, weaving through the crowded flow of people.

As he was walking, Wang Xiaofeng's expression suddenly changed. In his perception, several small black hands quietly passed through his cloak, touching his waist, wrists and pockets.

Immediately, the soft sleeve robe was covered with thin soul power, and immediately bounced away the palm stretched out from the crowd facing the belt.

Then, a tiny soul power needle would always be inserted into those palms, and a small red dot would slowly emerge, painful but not fatal.

Faintly glanced at those people who were gasping for air with pain in their arms, Wang Xiaofeng smiled. He had seen this kind of stealing trick a lot.

The pain will disappear after about half a month, which can be regarded as a lesson.

Not paying too much attention to these poor and hateful people, Wang Xiaofeng swayed slightly, and finally walked through the crowded doorway, and walked in calmly under the watchful eyes of the vicious guards who looked like eagles.

Entering the trading field, the soft sunlight pours down.

The noise of the outside world seemed to be isolated at this moment, but the distance of only a few meters was like a world separated by thousands of miles.

In the hall, there are expressionless and heavily armed guards everywhere. These guards all wear the same style of metal badges on their chests, representing the power of the trade fair.

When Wang Xiaofeng was looking left and right curiously, a stout woman walked in front of him: "First time at the trade fair?"

Wang Xiaofeng looked at the arm thicker than his own thigh, and nodded decisively.

"I'm here to buy something." As he said, he opened the money given by Victor.

"I'm the guard in charge of receiving and guiding you, and I'm not here to steal your money." The woman rolled her eyes, pointed to the purse and said, "It's only five hundred gold coins, which is only enough for you to pick up trash in the outer field."

The trade fair covers a very large area, and there are neat counters arranged vertically and horizontally.

In the counter, there are countless kinds of rare items, at least he has never seen many items, and the prices of the ones he has seen are ridiculously high in Tiandou and Xingluo.

At this time, in front of these counters, many people stopped, and the sound of noisy conversation lingered in it.

To be honest, he really wanted to pick up junk here, but unfortunately, he was short of cash.

Sure enough, it is difficult for a man with money to be a man without money.

"What about selling things?" Wang Xiaofeng said with some embarrassment.

"If it's those rubbish, then you can rent a stall for 500 gold coins." The female guard pointed to the counter in the middle, and then pointed to a small dark room in the corner with nowhere to go: "That's the treasure room, If your items are of high enough value, then you can be selected to participate in the auction at the boutique fair tonight."

"Um, thank you." Wang Xiaofeng watched the other party leave.

After a little delay, he walked slowly into the so-called treasure room.

I thought it was just an ordinary small black room, but I didn't find that there was something hidden inside.

In this large room, it was neatly divided into 20 separate small secret rooms again, presumably it was a measure to avoid exposing treasures and other people's identities.

No. 1-15, the doors are all closed, it should be that someone inside is appraising treasures, Wang Xiaofeng randomly chose No. 16 to go in, just walked into this treasure appraising room, the middle-aged man behind the appraising table said.

"My friend, are you here to appraise treasures, or to do a price appraisal so that you can go to the auction?"

His sharp eyes glanced over Wang Xiaofeng inadvertently, but since Wang Xiaofeng was completely hidden in the thick and large black robe, it was difficult to see anything.

"Come for an evaluation." Wang Xiaofeng's voice was a little thin, like a little girl.

"Please sit down." The appraiser casually pointed to the chair in front of the table.

After arranging some tools for testing the auctioned items on the table, he said lightly, "Take out the things you need to evaluate."

The large sleeve robe swept across the table, and a wine jug appeared on the table immediately.

The rich and somewhat spicy aroma of wine diffused in the small room.

"Wine?" Looking at the wine jug on the table, the middle-aged appraiser was stunned for a moment, and then said with some embarrassment: "Sorry, wine appreciation is not my field of expertise, please wait a moment, I will help you find a professional Sommelier."

As he said that, the middle-aged appraiser was about to open the small door at the back, and another person came over, when a thin, dark old man pushed the door open and knocked him aside.

Inhaling the aroma of the wine in the house with a face full of intoxication, "Hahaha, I can smell this strong aroma of wine through three walls."

"The base is the old gourd wine that has been stored for three and a half years. Well, there are also tiger bones and ganoderma lucidum that are more than a thousand years old, and some medicinal materials that are more than a hundred years old. It has been brewed for two years, and all the essence inside has been gathered in this jar. It's in the wine." The little old man was wearing animal skin gloves, his eyes were shining, he was gently stroking the wine jar, his nose couldn't help twitching slightly: "What a treasure."

"The old gentleman is really bright-eyed."

Just relying on the smell, I can almost understand the contents inside. Although the age cannot be specified, it is still extremely powerful. Sure enough, there are masters everywhere, so it should not be underestimated.

Wang Xiaofeng couldn't deny it, and said in a casual tone, "I wonder if I can make it to tonight's auction."

The little old man nodded frantically: "Of course, of course, this kind of top quality is rare in ten years, so it's naturally available, but it's just this amount, a bit small."

A jug of wine is only about five liters. If you subtract the sundries inside, you may only drink a little more than three liters in your mouth.

"Okay, but I only have so much." Wang Xiaofeng took out two jars of wine of the same size and put them on the table.

"Enough is enough, miss, the value of the item you auctioned has reached the second-level VIP level of our auction."

"This is your seat number. The auction will officially start at five o'clock this afternoon. Please take your seat according to the number." The little old man carefully put the wine jar into the soul guide, and then took out a square table from under the counter. , a waist card as gentle as white jade, and handed it to Wang Xiaofeng.

Wang Xiaofeng looked at the badge with the number 109 on it, and nodded, "I will be there on time."
