National destiny survival: I am weak and rely on luck to fly

The next morning.

The Dawn Territory was already on the right track. Lujia had strong management skills and all matters, big and small, were arranged in an orderly manner, so he didn't need to worry about anything.

Shen Nan blew a whistle, and then a clear cry was heard in the sky.

A moment later, Little Wing of the giant wind-winged bird descended from the sky.

"Let's go, Xiaoyi, to Wanfeng City." Shen Nan jumped lightly and sat on Xiaoyi's broad back.

The giant wind-winged bird flapped its wings and took off from the ground. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a small black dot on the horizon and rushed towards the direction of Wanfeng City.

In less than an hour, Wanfeng City appeared before their eyes.

Looking down from a high altitude, the city gate was crowded with people and carriages.

Xiaoyi hummed softly, folded his wings, nimbly avoided the crowd, and landed steadily on the open space outside the city gate.

Rad pushed through the crowd and came forward, sweating profusely, with the warmest smile on his face: "Dear Mr. Shen Nan, you are here!"

"Sorry to have kept you waiting, Rad." Shen Nan responded with a smile.

"No, no, you are just the right person to come."

Rad led the way, reporting as he walked, "The auction won't start for about an hour. The only people entering now are the scattered vendors in the hall, so there are too many people and too many eyes. Mr. Sit is still waiting for you at the grocery store. Let's go there to rest first and then go back when the time comes."

Shen Nan nodded, his eyes sweeping across the bustling crowds on both sides of the street.

The two walked through the bustling main road, turned into a quiet alley, and stopped in front of a familiar grocery store.

Today, a wooden sign saying "Temporarily closed" is hung on the door of the shop.

Rad went forward and knocked on the door. After a moment, the door opened from the inside.

"Mr. Shen Nan is here, please take a seat." Xit raised his hand to signal.

"Mr. Xit." Shen Nan sat down and looked up to see the fatigue and illness that could not be concealed between his brows.

"Your injury has worsened." Shen Nan said bluntly.

During this period, he often came to Wanfeng City to shop and had already become familiar with Sit and Rad.

Last time, when he was checking out the drinks in the Wanfeng City Tavern, he ran into Sit, who was drinking with a mercenary in the store. He learned that the other party was planning to buy a rare herb at today's auction, so the two of them made an appointment to go together.

Xit smiled bitterly: "I still can't hide it from you, Your Excellency."

As soon as he said this, he was hit by a violent coughing fit and he bent over and covered his lips with a handkerchief.

Dark red blood oozed out from between his lips, and what was even more horrifying was that there were a few tiny ice particles mixed in with the bloodstains.

Seeing the tiny ice fragments in the bloodstain, Shen Nan frowned slightly.

He didn't immediately take out the "Mermaid's Tears" he had prepared yesterday, but instead asked, "Are you sure about the lava grass that's being auctioned today?"

Sit wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and whispered, "I borrowed 100,000 gold from the city lord yesterday. If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to get it."

Shen Nan nodded: "That's good."

He originally planned to use "Mermaid's Tears" as a backup.

If Sit fails to bid for the lava grass, he can sell the little pearl to him as an "antidote".

Now that Sit has collected enough gold coins, he probably won't have any use for his little pearls.

Alas... what a pity this opportunity to make money is lost.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and seeing that it was almost time, Sit locked the shop door, and they went to Libe Auction House together.

The three of them walked through the crowd and headed towards the most magnificent building in the city center.

As the distance got closer, the white jade pillars of the Libe Auction House sparkled in the sunlight.

There, several figures in gorgeous clothes were surrounded by a crowd of people, and they were of prominent status.

At this moment, Sit suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Shen Nan asked.

Sit explained in a low voice, "I have some issues with those people at the door. Let them go in first before we leave. If they catch us, I'm afraid it will bring trouble to you."

Shen Nan followed his gaze and saw those people in gorgeous clothes.

"What's going on? Is it serious?"

"It's not a big deal." Sit smiled bitterly and then recounted what happened.

It turned out that when Sit first arrived in Wanfeng City, he urgently needed an alchemical material to repair his staff.

Just as he was paying the gold coins, the other party also took a fancy to the material, and the two argued for a long time.

At that time, Xit didn't know how to be patient, and his strength was not as weak as it is now. In a fit of rage, he beat the man up.

After that, he faced assassination attempts several times.

Fortunately, there were few masters in the border areas, so he was still able to cope with it back then.

Now, three years have passed, and the old wounds are getting worse day by day. If a conflict breaks out again, we may not be able to win, so we can only avoid it if possible.

"Let's go, let's go in too." Sit said after seeing those people walking away.

The three of them arrived at the door of the auction house. Sit paid 100 gold coins, and the waiter led them to the VIP box on the second floor.

The venue of the Libe Auction House is very large, and the first-floor hall has long been full of people, with merchants, mercenaries and adventurers sitting in a staggered manner.

On the second floor is a circle of independent boxes, reserved for nobles and powerful people.

After the three of them sat down, they had a panoramic view of the entire hall through the clear crystal windows.

"Ding--"

A bell rang and the whole place fell silent.

An elegant host walked onto the stage and said, "Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the Libei Auction! Tonight, a miracle will be born here! Now, I declare the auction officially open!"

After thunderous applause, the host stopped talking and lifted the red cloth covering the first item.

Shen Nan had little interest in the alchemical materials and weapons. He just sat there, sipping the hot milk tea brought by the waiter, his eyes wandering aimlessly.

Suddenly, his eyes paused.

In the box diagonally opposite, a nobleman in gorgeous clothes was leaning against the window railing. He was the person he had just met at the door.

The other party seemed to have noticed Shen Nan's prying and cast a glance at him through the crystal window.

The look first scrutinized, then turned to undisguised contempt, and finally even carried a cold warning.

Shen Nan withdrew his gaze, too lazy to look anymore.

The audience in the live broadcast room were the first to explode.

(Who's that guy across the street? He's so arrogant, looking at Nanbao like he's trash. Disgusting jpg.)

(Classic cannon fodder villain face, waiting for my baby Fanfan to teach him a lesson!!)

……

At this moment, the host's voice suddenly rose, with an exaggerated sense of mystery.

"Everyone, next up is one of tonight's blockbuster lots! It's the Blood Melting Grass, grown in lava soil, a plant that only appears once every ten years. It's the dream of alchemists and the most precious treasure of physicians!"
