Dusk Returns to the Ruined Building

Years smooth out our edges, which is called growth; time obliterates our nature, which is also called growth.

Oh, how ridiculous this is, yet how true it is, and how sad it is at the same time!

The sound of the zither was heard again in Yaoyu Pavilion. This time, no one knew what song it was, but the sound could be described in one word: soft! The music calmed the mind and soothed everyone's restless hearts.

But Shen Yichen's heart was moved, because Sister Qing showed up on her own initiative. This time, Sister Qing was only for Shen Yichen. She wrote four words on the table with tea: Follow your heart! But she didn't say a word and returned to her sea of ​​consciousness.

Shen Yichen looked at the words "think twice before acting" written on the note in his hand, and also looked at "follow your heart" written on the table. He was confused!

Ji Xuanyan in black and the old fortune-teller looked at Shen Yichen quietly. That was the path they had all walked before, and it was also the path they were walking now. No one could give an answer.

This is like a person's feet. When faced with something, if you think twice before taking a step or just act according to your heart, the result will definitely be worlds apart!

"Ouch!"

The dazed Shen Yichen was interrupted by a blow to his head, and the force was very strong.

"Brother Gua, we are still young, why should we think about these things?"

Wan Ning wiped the water stains on the table, snatched the note and ate it, she said with a smile:

"I remember seeing a painting without a face. My first reaction was that it was shameless, but my grandfather said that it was a master who had entered the state of selflessness!"

Wan Ning blinked her big eyes, looked at Shen Yichen, and continued:

"They are both shameless masters, don't be fooled!"

"Pfft!"

Shen Jinfei couldn't help but laugh first!

Shen Yichen was stunned for a moment, then smiled!

"Neither of them has any shame!"

Shen Yichen really agreed with Wan Ning's words. Neither Sister Qing nor Sister Yan was a shameless person!

Shen Yichen took out a pot of wine and said to Ji Xuanyan in black:

"Sister Yan, drinking is my nature, and drinking tea is you letting me cultivate my character. I appreciate your kindness, but I really like drinking!"

After Shen Yichen finished speaking, he raised the wine jug and drank it all.

"Cool!"

Shen Yichen sighed from the bottom of his heart, this idiot was actually licking his lips!

"Brother Chen, please don't regret it!"

Ji Xuanyan in black not only did not stop him this time, but smiled. However, her evil eyes scared Shen Yichen so much that he shuddered.

In the sea of ​​knowledge,

"Sister Qing, did I anger her again?"

"Hey, Chichen, you better pray for the best, this woman thinks twice before she acts and follows her heart!"

Sister Qing was actually very happy in her heart. She really didn't want Shen Yichen to change his original intention, especially not to change according to Ji Xuanyan's wishes.

Shen Yichen threw away the wine jug, stood up, poured a cup of tea for Ji Xuanyan in black, poured a cup for the old fortune-teller, and poured another cup for himself.

"Sister Yan, from now on, as long as you are here, I will never drink!"

Ji Xuanyan in black picked up the teacup, looked at the fortune-teller, and said coldly:

"These two girls have ruined my plans. Jian Ying is done. One of them has to come with me!"

The old fortune teller also picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"If you don't act recklessly, the matter of Jian Ying might be resolved!"

This means the old fortune teller has neither agreed nor refused!

"My fellow Taoists, let's auction off the second item tonight. It comes from an unknown friend. This item is a fragment of an ancient book. The cover is damaged and only two words can be seen: Xu Chen. The starting price is 20,000 Lingbao!"

A yellowed book appeared in the middle of the auction table, flashing a dark green light.

Yao Yu Pavilion did not know what to do, but a huge virtual image appeared in the void, and everyone could see it more clearly!

“Fifty thousand spiritual treasures!”

"Eighty thousand spiritual treasures!"

……

People in Yaoyu Pavilion started bidding, but no one knew what this ancient book was for!

Shen Yichen looked at the ancient book through the window.

In the sea of ​​knowledge,

"Sister Qing, that wouldn't be the method of using the Void Dust Pearl, right?"

This was Shen Yichen's first reaction, because the ancient book was surrounded by mysterious spiritual essence, not true essence.

Shen Yichen secretly glanced at the old fortune-teller, who was actually frowning in deep thought.

"Chichen, take the photo. Sister Qing is about to be reborn. Quick!"

Sister Qing was a little excited. If this was really the method to use the Void Dust Pearl, then her soul mark would be revealed!

Ji Xuanyan in black drank her tea slowly and said something inexplicable to the fortune-teller:

"Your injury seems to have a story!"

"Grandpa, then, how come there is a mysterious spirit outside that ancient book? Is it the lost secret book of Xuantian Sect?"

Wan Ning also noticed it.

"One million spiritual treasures!"

This is the price asked by the masked Yuyao.

"One million and five hundred thousand spiritual treasures!"

Inside a barrier on the second floor, someone raised the price again.

Shen Yichen felt that the voice sounded familiar, and when he looked over there, it turned out to be Brother Ye.

Of course the masked Yu Yao also saw it, and Brother Ye actually waved his hand upwards.

The charming and seductive Yang Jiarui was also beside Brother Ye, but she was wearing a veil at the moment.

"One million, five hundred and one hundred thousand spiritual treasures!"

This price is obviously meaningful.

Brother Ye turned his head and looked at the person who was bidding the price. Of course he didn't know him, but Yang Jiarui knew him. The person bidding the price was Cui Qingquan, who was currently with everyone from Yanyue Sect, inside a barrier on the second floor.

Cui Qingquan did not do this to raise the price, but just wanted to let Yang Jiarui know of his existence, because he had seen Yang Jiarui a long time ago and recognized her at the first sight.

"One million and eight hundred thousand spiritual treasures!"

The masked Yuyao was bidding again.

"Two million spiritual treasures!"

Xiao Yingxu also came. He and Shangguan Rumeng were on the second floor, and Shi Shengren and Huangfu Yuanfei were also there.

Shen Yichen had seen these people a long time ago, but he didn't know that Xiao Yingxu didn't come here specifically for him, but to attend the auction. This was Ouyang Qingcheng's idea.

Ouyang Qingcheng promised that Shen Yichen would show up, and he really made the right bet. Why did Ouyang Qingcheng come? Because he had something to auction, and also to find out the news about the Ouyang family.

"Grandpa, should we take a picture of it?"

Wan Ning was a little surprised by her grandfather's reaction!

"Two million and one hundred thousand spiritual treasures!"

The masked Yuyao raised the price again.

"Two million and two hundred thousand spiritual treasures!"

Brother Ye also bid a price, he did it on purpose!

"Two and a half million spiritual treasures!"

Xiao Yingxu was also raising the price, but in Yaoyu Pavilion, perhaps only Shen Yichen and him could call out this number!

"Grandpa, why did Daoyuan Cult take pictures of this ancient book?"

Wan Ning looked back at the old fortune teller, but he was really thinking deeply, because he had a feeling in his heart that the appearance of this ancient book was too coincidental, and it might really be related to Shen Yichen's Xuchen Pearl.

Wan Ning didn't get an answer, so she just shouted:

"Yingxu, Yingxu, why are you taking pictures of this ancient book?"

Inside Yaoyu Pavilion, "Nine Tunes: Xiang Jun" sounded again, and it sounded instantly.

The old woman in the pavilion on the fifth floor disappeared and soon came to Shen Yichen's private room.

"Two seniors, are you guys going too far?"

The old woman with a cane was not polite at all! She was really angry. In all these years, Yaoyu Auction House had never been as unlucky as it was today!

"Everyone has their own responsibility. I was the one who shouted just now. It has nothing to do with them! What do you want?"

Wan Ning was a real tiger, standing in front of the old woman with her hands on her hips.

Shen Yichen patted his forehead and sighed softly in his sea of ​​consciousness:

"Sister Qing, should I learn from Wan Ning? She's amazing, she's a saint!"

"Chi Chen, this girl did it on purpose, use your brain, okay?"

Sister Qing was speechless. Shen Yichen always looked at things from such a weird perspective!

"Who wrote that ancient book?"

The old fortune-teller spoke at this time, and Wan Ning retreated behind him.

"You owe us your life. Tell us the truth and we'll be even now!"

Wan Ning's voice was a little cold, and it was obvious that Wan Ning knew that this was against the rules of Yaoyu Auction House.

It seems worthwhile to exchange a life for a word! But the old woman with the cane did not answer directly. Instead, she frowned, as if weighing the pros and cons.

The old fortune-teller moved his hands slightly, and soon a dark green barrier appeared in the small private room, separating it from the outside world.

"Is that right?"

The old woman was slightly startled, then she said:

"It's from Yaoyu Auction House. Yanquan sent it over a month ago. Senior, I have repaid you for saving my life!"

The old woman with a cane bowed and left the private room.

Shen Yichen was stunned. In his sea of ​​consciousness,

"Sister Qing, am I really like an idiot?"

"Chi Chen, you just haven't been in the martial arts world for long. It doesn't matter. Just follow your heart. That way others won't know what you're thinking!"

Shen Yichen really didn't expect Wan Ning to do this!

"Hey, this little girl is not an easy person to deal with!"

"Chi Chen, don't be an enemy of this little girl. I always feel that there is a power in her body, a very powerful power!"

"Sister Qing, I don't want to be an enemy to anyone, but there are some things that I can't decide!"

Ji Xuanyan in black was drinking tea again, looking at the grandfather and grandson who were in deep thought with a smile.

"Brother Chen, see, this is shameless. You actually take the initiative to force others to repay a favor. Oh, this is extremely shameless!"

Ji Xuanyan in black is really not afraid of big trouble.

The fortune-teller ignored him and turned to look at Shen Yichen, whispering:

"Boy, aren't you tempted at all? That secret book should only be useful to you, right?"

Of course Shen Yichen was tempted, but he had no money!

"Senior, I, I have no money!"

Shen Jinfei was the first one to laugh again. Shen Yichen looked so cute!

"You have a lot of money. Your holy sword will be auctioned off soon!"

Shen Yichen's expression changed when he heard this. He looked at Ji Xuanyan in black and said in surprise:

"Sister Yan, you, you did it?"

Shen Yichen asked Ji Xuanyan in black, but Ji Xuanyan said that the Holy Sword Fengyin was in the carriage, on the bottom floor of Yaoyu Pavilion.

Shen Yichen didn't care about it. He certainly didn't expect Ji Xuanyan to be sold out.

"Hey, Brother Chen, why do you always think that Sister Yan is a bad person? They are all involved, including your Sister Qing. This is what we discussed, and your Sister Qing also asked you about it. She used her hand to make you nod!"

In Shen Yichen's sea of ​​consciousness, Sister Qing roared:

"Bitch, absolutely a bitch, I shouldn't have believed her!"

But Shen Yichen smiled at this moment!

"Very good, very good. I wanted to throw away that sword a long time ago. Why didn't I think that the holy sword could be sold for money?"

Sister Qing came out again at this time, pointing at Ji Xuanyan in black and said:

"Chichen, the bitch Yan also auctioned off your little sugar figurine. This was her own idea and has nothing to do with us!"

Shen Yichen's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed:

"Sister Qing, what did you say?"
