time stop

The sound of bidding kept passing through the sea and entered Yu Sheng's ears. He knew that he was about to be sold, and Yu Sheng didn't quite understand why the humans present wanted to buy him, but he felt threatened. The premonition of danger is beyond ordinary people, which enabled him to survive many death threats smoothly in his previous life.

Yu Sheng searched around, hoping to find a way to avoid danger. It's not that he didn't try to break the glass that confines him, but the arc of his hands and tail swinging in this narrow space is pitiful, let alone Raise your hand or flick your tail violently to break through this transparent barrier.

Yu Sheng squinted his eyes slightly to search among the crowd. He might try to use the pupil technique to control a less dangerous person to buy him, but this pupil technique is only spread among the mermaids, and it can really be done. There are very few mermen in the city, and his previous attempts at pupil art have all failed, so maybe he will succeed this time.

The hall was full of people, and the target group was really big, but Yu Sheng noticed the man in the black dress sitting in the front at a glance. He had seen that man before.

Rong Wang Lu Yuan, who was sitting in the audience, was listening to the bids of those people calmly, but he was a little annoyed in his heart. It seemed that he was not very happy that the mermaid was sold to someone else. Unnegligible eyes fell on him, Lu Yuan keenly looked at the suspicious place, and suddenly looked at Yu Sheng who was soaking in the sea water, the blue color in Yu Sheng's eyes became deeper and deeper, making him Lu Yuan was in a daze for a moment.

The bidding sounds around him hadn't stopped yet, but in Lu Yuan's ears it became more and more indistinct, and gradually he couldn't hear anything, only a voice close to his ear said: "Buy him, buy him!" Buy a shark, buy a shark..."

The voice repeated over and over until Lu Yuan's mind went blank, only one thought was to buy this shark.

The bidding war on the other side is still raging, and Ye Luosha and the young master of the Jiang family are making the final struggle.

Ye Luosha tightened the handkerchief in his hand, and shouted the price: "40 taels and 200 taels of gold!"

The money prepared by the Jiang family was almost running out. Although it was a bit difficult, the eldest son of the Jiang family said calmly, "41 taels!"

The people present began to whisper, seeing that the eldest son of the Jiang family looked at ease, they all speculated: "I'm afraid this shark will fall into the hands of the Jiang family!"

Another person answered him: "What are you afraid of, Master Wan hasn't made a move yet!"

"He hasn't bid for a long time, I'm afraid he's about to give up!"

"..."

The whispers of the few people in the back row fell into Master Wan's ears verbatim. He smiled, thinking that it was almost time for him to make a move, so he said, "50 taels of gold!"

The audience was in an uproar, everyone was shocked by Master Wan's generous shot, and they all said to Master Wan: "Congratulations!"

The old man who hosted the matter smiled and prepared to make a decision: "One time for 50 taels of gold! Twice for 50 taels of gold! 50 taels of gold..."

"100 taels of gold!"

All the voices were choked by this sentence, and the audience was silent. Everyone's eyes fell on Lu Yuan, who finally turned the tables. Even Fan Shouguang and Shi Kai looked at Lu Yuan in surprise.

As soon as the words fell, all the disappearing perceptions poured in like a tide, and Lu Yuan immediately woke up. He remembered what he did just now, and Lu Yuan cast his eyes on the shark with complicated eyes.

Yu Sheng didn't respond to Lu Yuan's gaze, but the old man who hosted him cast his gaze on Lu Yuan in confusion, and after getting a slight nod from Lu Yuan, he said again: "One million taels of gold once! One million taels of gold for two! Times! One million taels of gold three times!"

The old man picked up a delicate hammer and tapped on a small gong, and said with a smile: "Then congratulations to Lord Rong for winning the last treasure!"

Only then did the audience come to their senses, and congratulated Lu Yuan one after another.

On the surface, everyone was convinced by this result. Firstly, the 100 million taels of gold was not something ordinary people could afford. Secondly, Prince Rong had a noble status, so they couldn't afford to offend him.But behind the scenes, who knows what they think!

After the auction, Fan Shouguang came to ask Lu Yuan how to deal with the mermaid. He really didn't understand that it was Lu Yuan who was going to be auctioned, and it was still Lu Yuan who was going to be bought. As a subordinate, Fan Shouguang felt that he really couldn't figure out the master. thoughts.

Lu Yuan didn't leave Zhenbao Pavilion with the crowd, he sat on his seat and drank tea quietly. After all the visitors had left, he slowly walked up to the stage and stood in front of Yu Sheng to look up. That shark soaked in sea water.

The two looked at each other, speechless for a while.

Fan Shouguang asked a question, but did not get a reply from Lu Yuan, so he consciously stood behind him with Shi Kai, silently waiting for Lu Yuan's order.

Yu Sheng floated in the ten-foot-high glass container, looked down at Lu Yuan, traced Lu Yuan's face bit by bit with his eyes.This was the second time he had seen him, and this person had not even appeared in front of him as many times as Fan Shouguang, but Yu Sheng was inexplicably familiar with him.Yu Sheng remained vigilant to everyone he met on land. Only when he faced Lu Yuan did he have an inexplicable sense of trust. Yu Sheng began to think where he had seen him before?

You must know that not long ago, the rest of his life lived in the deep ocean, a place where humans could not set foot, so why did he feel this way?

Lu Yuan was also observing Yu Sheng at this time. Lu Yuan knew that his temper was not good, and his mood became even more irritable after being played by such an inhuman thing. But at this moment, he looked at the shark in front of him. People are not as angry as imagined.

Lu Yuan stretched out his finger to touch the glass in a strange way, as if he could put his finger on the merman through the glass. On the opposite side of Lu Yuan, the merman also stretched out his finger, broke through the sea water, and put his finger on Lu Yuan's body. Yuan's finger prints in one place.

Although it was through the glass, Lu Yuan felt that he could feel the cold temperature of the other's fingers. When he raised his head, he saw the corners of Yu Sheng's mouth slightly curved, revealing two small dimples.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile too.

Fan Shouguang was silent at the side, and only replied when he heard Lu Yuan's shout: "The officer is here."

Lu Yuan: "Where's your friend who is good at repairing ponds? This king wants to meet him."

Fan Shouguang: "This person is now in the Xiaguan's residence, and the Xiaguan will send someone to pass him on now."

Lu Yuan was in a good mood: "Let's pass it on!"

After Fan Shouguang took the order, he went out of the auction hall to find a servant to deliver the order. When he left, Lu Yuan was still guarding in front of the sharks.

In the Zhenbao Pavilion, a young steward asked the old man in charge: "Mr. Sun, what is the meaning of this prince? He is the one to sell, and he is the one to buy."

The old man squinted his eyes and said: "Master's thoughts should not be pondered by us servants."

The steward: "Then the 100 taels of gold?"

The old man squinted at him: "If you have the guts, go to the prince."

The little steward smiled flatteringly: "I dare not!"

The old man: "Since you dare not, just keep your mouth shut, do more and talk less, so that you can live longer!"

The little steward learned the old man's lesson and didn't dare to fart, so he kept saying: "Yes yes yes!"

The auction matter is over, Yuren Yusheng was also brought back to Rongwang Mansion by Lu Yuan, but his pool has not started construction yet, and now he has to stay in Lu Yuan's big bathing pool. It's really bigger than the lotus pond in the backyard of Fan Shouguang's house, but Lu Yuan has to be wronged that he has to sit in the bathtub to bathe these days.

This place is unfamiliar to Yu Sheng. He stayed in the water, curiously showing half of his head and looking at this place carefully. As soon as Lu Yuan came in, he saw Yu Sheng's appearance. He smiled, and then put away his smile again. , standing by the bathtub with a serious face.

Yu Sheng raised his head to look at Lu Yuan, then shrank his head down again, revealing only a pair of bright eyes.

Lu Yuan said, "You did what happened today? You controlled me?"

Yu Sheng hesitated, but still nodded.

Seeing that Yu Sheng could understand his own words, Lu Yuan couldn't help thinking of what he said before him, "No matter how good this thing is, it's just a beast, it doesn't understand human language, and it's troublesome to raise", and he slapped the scene properly.

Lu Yuan asked again: "Can you understand human speech?"

Yu Sheng nodded.

Lu Yuan: "You don't want to be auctioned off?"

Yu Sheng nodded without hesitation.

Lu Yuan: "Why?"

Yu Sheng opened his mouth, but didn't make any sound. He stroked his throat with his hands, and lowered his head a little lonely.

Lu Yuan suddenly realized that the mermaid could not speak.

Lu Yuan didn't have much to say when he stood here, he stood there for a while, left a sentence of "live well" and left.

After he left, the rest of his life was very boring, and he buried his head under the water again, not knowing what he was thinking.

In the middle of the night, Yu Sheng, who was asleep, opened his eyes suddenly, and a sound came to his ears. There was a sound of very light footsteps on the roof, which could not even be heard by human ears. Judging from the sound of footsteps, There may be several people, and there is something wrong with the sound of these footsteps.

Yu Sheng focused on his ears and listened carefully.

"Bang bang!" Two heavy objects fell to the ground, Yu Sheng was startled, it was the two people guarding outside the bath.

Outside the bath, a group of men in black jumped down from the roof. Strangely, these men in black were all women.

The leading woman in black waved her hand, motioning for the rest to follow. She carefully glanced inside to confirm that there were no guards.The leading woman in black smiled, as if she had seen the merman fall into her hands, she stretched out her hand and carefully pushed open the door of the bathing pool.

There was no movement inside the door, and the sea water in the most conspicuous bathing pool in the room was quiet and calm, but they were sure that the mermaid was in this pool!

The leading woman in black walked towards the bathing pool step by step, while the man in black following her was carrying a large net.
