Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

After a rain in Yuyang, the ginkgo trees put on new clothes.

Outside Yaoyu Pavilion, among the dense forest of ginkgo trees, there was an old beggar in tattered clothes, sitting on a tree branch, drinking wine, looking into Yaoyu Pavilion. The branch was as tender as new bamboo, but it was firmly holding a person, without bending. How strange!

When the middle-aged man with the black mole placed the storage bag on the auction table, the old beggar whispered:

"The manager of Yuyang County Yaoyu Auction House is quite capable!"

At this time, in a secret room on the fifth floor of Yaoyu Pavilion, a woman in a yellow flowery skirt was looking at an ancient jade token in her hand, frowning, thinking about something!

On the second floor of Yaoyu Pavilion, A Mei really protected Shen Yichen! When Shen Yichen exclaimed.

"Ten thousand spiritual treasures! This is my big brother's storage bag. If anyone dares to bid, I will not be polite!"

A-mei shouted while holding her waist and standing at the railing on the second floor.

Everyone in Yaoyu Pavilion was speechless, and they all discussed:

"Where did this little brat come from? How come he interferes with every item in the auction all night?"

"As for this broken storage bag, if you don't come out and tell others, no one will fight with you for it!"

"What the hell is Yao Yu Pavilion doing? Are they opening a blind box?"

"What's in this storage bag? And there are 10,000 spiritual treasures. Is your brain full of water?"

……

You know what, some people really have lost their minds!

“Twenty thousand spiritual treasures!”

Someone in the lobby on the first floor raised the price. It was the old man in black.

Everyone in the lobby on the first floor was still looking for the person who raised the price when they felt something flying over their heads, followed by a crackling sound and splashing water!

Everyone covered their faces and looked up to the second floor.

I saw a little girl holding a teacup and throwing it toward the first floor, shouting:

"Are you sick? I told you not to grab it, or I'll smash you to death!"

Another water cup was thrown at the old man in black.

The middle-aged man with the black mole was confused, the old man in black was also confused, and everyone looked at A-mei with surprise, who had a face full of anger.

What a deal!

At the Yaoyu Auction House, I have seen people arguing constantly, people bidding up prices crazily, people teaming up to bully others, and even people fighting over things, but I have never seen people hitting others with teacups! Isn't this just a scoundrel in the secular world?

If Ah Mei used her true Qi to teach the old man in black a lesson, everyone would be able to accept it, or if they just fought, it wouldn't be too surprising at all, but... but... she could use a cup! Everyone was speechless!

Mu Wanqian stood up and looked towards the hall. After seeing the old man in black, she knew the reason for the price increase! She hugged Ah Mei and kissed her:

"Coward, I like you very much!"

Mu Wanqian was not afraid because this was Yaoyu Auction House and the old man in black did not dare to take action!

The old man in blue on the third floor looked at the scene, smiled and said to himself:

"The immortal child is still so unpredictable. Will she never grow up?"

Ah Mei ignored everyone's reaction, broke free from Mu Wanqian, and continued to shout:

"You old fool, if you dare to steal my big brother's things again, I will drown you in tea! Thirty thousand spiritual treasures!"

After saying that, he threw the last teacup in his hand towards the old man in black on the first floor!

The middle-aged man with the black mole waved his hand, threw the teacup out of the pavilion, and said:

"No matter which family you are a princess from, Yaoyu Pavilion is not a place for you to act recklessly!"

I don't know if Ah Mei really doesn't understand or is just pretending not to understand. She looked at the middle-aged man with the mole and said:

"Since when did Yaoyu Auction House interfere with guests spilling tea? We paid for the seats, and if the tea doesn't taste good, is it okay to spill it?"

The middle-aged man with the mole was stunned when he heard this. This was the first time he encountered such a thing. He didn't know how to deal with it, so he looked up at the roof!

At this time, a woman's voice came from the top of Yaoyu Pavilion.

"Since it belongs to this Taoist friend, Yaoyu Auction House is willing to increase the price to 40,000 and return it to you!"

Shen Yichen acted as if nothing had happened, as if this matter had nothing to do with him! He was already giving up! First, he had no money, and second, none of the three women would listen to him. He raised the wine pot to Ouyang Jinyu helplessly to apologize, took a sip, and said to himself:

"Hey, I'm going down the mountain, and I'm so messed up like this, I'm embarrassed to be in Stargazing Mountain's face!"

Shen Yichen didn't expect that the incident happened again. He only heard Ah Mei shouting:

"Does my elder brother need your little money? Do we really need to owe you a favor for Yaoyu Auction House?"

Mu Wanqian shouted at this time:

“Fifty thousand spiritual treasures!”

And said:

"You guys at Yaoyu Auction House are blind, do I look like someone who needs your money?

Shen Yichen was very calm, very calm. He held the wine jug that was almost broken in his grip, raised it towards Xixi, and said:

"Xiao Bai, I won't pay for this, so it can't be counted as mine. And I have to go back to settle the bill tonight. I won't do this job anymore!"

Shen Yichen felt that he could barely handle Mu Wanqian alone, but when A-mei came, he felt suffocated, as if shouting to the sky or the earth was of no use!

The old man in black also had a lot of grievances that he couldn't express! He wanted to disgust Shen Yichen, but ended up being disgusted by a little brat!

Yaoyu Auction House intervened, but he didn't have the fearless courage of those juniors. He was afraid of offending Yaoyu Auction House, so he silently wiped the tea off his face and cursed in his heart:

"Boy! If the situation doesn't change, then the water will. Let's meet outside Yaoyu Pavilion!"

He chose to swallow his anger!

A female voice came from the top of Yaoyu Pavilion again.

"Uncle Mo, let's continue the auction!"

This time it was Ouyang Jinyu's turn to be surprised!

"What's going on? Did Yaoyu Auction House give in?"

He looked at Mu Wanqian and A Mei with suspicion, and said to himself:

"Who are these two?"

Ouyang Jinyu didn't know that Yaoyu Pavilion had its own difficulties!

In the secret room on top of Yaoyu Pavilion, the woman in yellow muttered to herself:

"Left Protector, you really gave Yu'er a difficult problem!"

"Su Qing!"

"exist!"

The woman in yellow said:

"Send a message to the Headquarters. The Left Protector has returned the Yaoyu Zuodu token to the Yaoyu Pavilion. Please instruct us on what to do next!"

Originally, the third auction item today was a bottle of spiritual spring liquid, but the woman in yellow suddenly received the Yao Yu Zuodu token and a storage bag, with a note attached, asking her to return the storage bag to its original owner through auction!

She was a little confused. Returning the Zuodu token to Yao Yu meant that the Left Protector would leave from then on. She didn't know how to deal with it. Of course, this was not something she could handle!

In the end, the storage bag was sold for 50,000 spiritual treasures, and A-mei successfully got it!

Shen Yichen instinctively went to take the storage bag that the middle-aged man with the black mole had handed over, but Ah Mei snatched it away, handed it to Mu Wanqian, and said:

"Big brother, this seems to have been taken by Sister Qian, do you have money?"

Mu Wanqian shouted happily:

"The one who understands me is my sister."

Shen Yichen looked stunned, staring at the two girls with his mouth open, and said to himself:

"Oh my god, what the hell is this!"

At this time, a drop of water flew in from outside Yaoyu Pavilion and fell into Shen Yichen's mouth. Shen Yichen instinctively felt sick, but the taste in his mouth seemed to be Wu Hengcui! At the same time, an old man's voice came from his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Hey kid, I'll return the storage bag to you. To be honest, I'm very grateful to you for accidentally breaking the shackles that had been on my body for more than 200 years!"

Before Shen Yichen could figure out what was going on, Ah Mei looked back at Shen Yichen and shouted:

"Big brother, my stomach hurts, I need to go to the toilet!"

After saying that, he ran downstairs and disappeared in Yaoyu Pavilion!

Outside the ginkgo grove, on the city wall of Yuyang County not far away, a sloppy old beggar was looking at the night sky in the distance.

"Senior, you came and went in a hurry!"

Along with the sound, A-mei landed on the city wall.

The ragged old beggar turned around and looked at the serious-looking A-mei and said:

"It seems that your cultivation has improved again! What a pity, the shackles are getting tighter and tighter!"

Ah Mei was shocked when she heard this, she dodged and pulled away, and asked in surprise:

"This is the secret of my sect. How did you know this, Senior?"

The old beggar turned around and looked at the distant night sky, and said softly:

"How should I know? There are some things you don't understand yet. Everyone in the world has shackles, some are visible, some are invisible. It's just that we are in them and don't know it!"

A-mei was a little confused and asked:

"It is rumored that the senior has attained sainthood? Could it be that saints also have shackles in their hearts?"

Hearing this, the old beggar laughed coldly, but the sound of his laughter sounded like self-mockery, and also like inferiority complex!

"To become a saint, what's the use of being a saint? Now I think I'm not as good as an ordinary wine seller! I was free and unfettered! But now I can't let go of anything!"

"I was originally a carefree drunkard, wanting to be free, but who knew that freedom is also a shackle! The wine of the past is still so mellow, the taste of the world is still so familiar, but the carefree person is gone forever!

Ah Mei was shocked when she heard this, and thought to herself:

"How can a saint be unable to control his own behavior? Then why practice Taoism? Does it mean that what a cultivator seeks in his life is in vain?"

Then he asked:

"I am a fool, please give me some advice!"

"Cherish your fate with him. What Ji Xuanfeng has been looking for all his life is in him. Maybe he can remove your shackles, and maybe he can even help me get out of it!"

A Mei didn't understand and asked:

"What happened to him, senior?"

"We didn't know each other, we just met by chance, and I just fulfilled a promise I made two hundred years ago. Now that I think about it, it seems that I was fooled by him! I protected him for two hundred years in vain!"

After the old beggar finished speaking, he said to himself:

"Where did he go?"

"Okay! I'm leaving. I've been bound by a sign for more than two hundred years. It's ridiculous to think about it!"

Sister heard this,

"Where are you going, senior?"

"Where to go? Go throw another sign!"

A-mei suddenly threw a storage bag to the old beggar and said:

"This is for Senior!"

The old beggar opened it and saw

"Qisongxiang! Girl, you still can't forget that drunken moment back then!"
