It was noon, and it was not the annual auction season, and the auction house was very deserted during the off-season.
In the hall, except for a few appraisers who were stationed, no one came to wander here.
“Dadadada,,,”
The footsteps rang out from outside the door, and when they walked in, no one was willing to get up and took a nap.
Lin Shan felt inexplicably relaxed when he looked at the familiar hall layout.
He looked at the appraisers one by one and found that none of them knew each other, and probably they were newcomers who had been replaced over the years.
At this time, a famous maid came up and asked him what he had to appraise or have to be mortgaged for auction. She came to receive the whole process.
Lin Shan smiled slightly, spread his spiritual consciousness, searched in the huge pavilion, withdrew his spiritual consciousness and thanked him.
"No need, you go and do it, I'll walk by myself."
The maid stayed in the auction house for a long time and had met some big names. She could feel the extraordinaryness of the people in front of her and was very conscious and conscious.
The appraisers at the counter seemed to come to their senses at this time, but they sat in their seats without moving, and were secretly nervous in their hearts, calling the visitor not to come to him.
Because this young man was calm and they couldn't see through his cultivation, at least at the foundation-building stage, he was likely to have a good background.
And ordinary appraisers will definitely not be able to see what such people use to identify or auction things.
It's normal to think about it.
The disciples of the sect have been systematically educated since childhood and are from a professional school. No matter how knowledge and vision are, they must be far beyond others. Do you still need to identify them?
If others can't see it, you probably can't see it either.
If the profession of appraiser is really willing to condescend to grab food, there will be no way out for the sect to survive.
Although performance is also very important to them, if the appraisal is wrong or cannot be identified, you also have to bear the responsibility, so no one wants to take on the job.
If you want to find a job, you can only find the chief appraiser to check.
But the chief appraiser...
Basically, everyone has that kind of virtue. On weekdays, they either stay in the cave to practice or go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers. They don’t have to stay in the auction house at all. They just come to take a look occasionally and don’t sit on the stage during the auction.
Fortunately, Lin Shan didn't have the idea to find them, so he walked around the counter and went straight into the backyard and went upstairs.
The first appraiser in the cultivation world is here, and you still need to ask you to appraise?
joke!
The appraisers breathed a sigh of relief at their respective counters, turned around and stopped paying attention, leaned on the chair and fell asleep.
......
Linshan went up layer by layer and found that there was indeed no one in the off-season, and there was not even a guard.
It can be seen that the auction house business has declined and its business is bleak in recent years. It is probably because of the influence of the Song Dynasty war decades ago, which led to the economic downturn, so the monks kept their pockets tight.
Everyone was unwilling to consume and kept the spirit stone firmly in their hands. The capitalists in the cultivation world had no choice but to tighten their belts and lay off employees. The unlucky one was the workers at the bottom.
Lin Shan came to the fifth-floor loft step by step without any obstacles.
Through the beaded curtains, you can see at the end of the big red carpet inside, a haggard old man sitting cross-legged and meditating.
"Fellow Taoist is a guest from afar. I'm sorry that I'm inconvenient to greet you, please come in."
Lin Shan did not hide himself, so Zuo Zhenren could naturally sense it.
Compared to those days, the old man has now seen aging visible to the naked eye, his hair has fallen out, and brown spots have crawled all over his face and arms, his skin is loose and his wrinkles are growing.
The eyes are turbid and dull, and it is a bit laborious to hold up your eyelids.
At this moment, I was struggling to look up and looked out of the curtain.
Lin Shan walked in step by step and bowed and bowed. He could feel that Zuo Zhenren was on the verge of transformation, his body was leaking, and his essence was lost. It was probably the last two months.
But what he didn't expect was that the other party looked at him presbyopia for a moment and recognized his identity.
"Ha, um... it turns out it's your boy..."
Zuo Zhenren's words were hoarse, his voice was not very comfortable, and his teeth were almost gone when he opened his mouth.
It's even worse to laugh than to cry.
However, I can feel that he is really smiling.
"My younger generation, Lin Shan, pay homage to the real person!"
"Yeah, yeah, get up..."
Zuo Zhenren wanted to raise his hand, but he felt it was difficult to lift it up, so he simply stretched out his mind, slowly tilted his head, and signaled Lin Shan to sit down.
I found a futon next to Linshan and talked about the old story with Zuo Zhenren.
Because of their similar cultivation, the two chatted smoothly and had no sense of estrangement. For a while, they were like old friends for many years, and had a great time talking.
Zuo Zhenren was not surprised that he broke through the Golden Pill Stage, maybe because he thought he was not a person in the pool and would sooner or later soar into the sky.
It may also be that the person who is too old and is about to die is no longer shocked.
It was only when I learned that he had taken the longevity medicine and was rejuvenated that I showed a little envy.
Only by truly experiencing the helplessness and pain of the life span can we realize how precious the longevity medicine is.
When the two talked about the past, Zuo Zhenren Xiaolin Shan always paid his salary in advance. This was the first time he had seen such a young man in so many years. At that time, he criticized him for it.
Lin Shan sincerely thanked him and asked about the auction house's subsequent situation.
Zuo Zhenren showed melancholy and slowly told him what happened after he left.
Because of the departure of Mr. Zhang and Lin Shan, Yichuan Auction House was not qualified to be the chief appraiser, so it could only temporarily leave this position empty.
Until later, wars broke out in the Song Dynasty, and many casual cultivators were afraid of being implicated, so they left the market and fled into the mountains, avoiding the world and waiting for the time.
Since then, the auction house has had a bleak business and has not been able to hold an auction for 20 consecutive years.
Later, the righteous path finally showed a chance to win and drove the three demon sects back to the East China Sea. The sects on Dayan took the opportunity to raid and captured the Sixteen State of Yanyun.
At that time, in order to deploy a cross-sea attack, Zhengdao drove the three demons out of the springboard of the East China Sea, so he could only pinch his nose and recognize it.
After the East China Sea was recovered, he hurriedly transferred his troops and headed north to defend against Yan's southward direction.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Now the front lines of the two sides, in the area where Yanyun is still going down, Yichuan and the surrounding sect families have already completely entered the Yan Kingdom.
It is impossible not to surrender. Their spiritual veins, industries, and ancestral homes are here and they cannot escape.
What I mean is that I can’t leave my hometown, but I’m actually afraid that I can’t make a comeback when changing places.
Zuo Zhenren is also very sensible in the current affairs and has long invested in his family and industry.
At that time, he had become the only Jindan real person in the family and the pillar of the entire clan.
He was originally a casual cultivator, but later became a son-in-law of the cultivation family. Later, he crossed the class and became a shareholder of the auction house, and was gradually promoted to an elder of the Yichuan Internal Affairs Office.
It can be said to be a typical case of the reversal of the casual cultivator in the northern world of cultivation!
Many poor boys also want to get something for nothing, follow Zuo Zhenren and get to the rich woman, from then on, they reach the peak of their lives, avoiding countless detours, and the heights that others will never reach in their entire lives.
However, the owner of the family is willing to cultivate Zuo Zhenren when he was young, and he must have valued his potential and handed over his daughter and family to outsiders.
Without a few brushes, the lady from the cultivation family will at most ask, what kind of toad are you?
Since the death of the old master in his early years, Zuo Zhenren has become a real dictatorship of the foreign relatives and grasps all the power and property of the family.
But in recent decades, he has been under unimaginable pressure.
The demonic sects of Yan State came to their doors one by one, constantly exploiting and extorting, and they could not afford to offend them.
Zuo Zhenren was forced to give in, but the other party became even more violent, and the family was even more complaints.
At the same time, bad news came from outside that he was beaten to the title of elder of the Yichuan Interior Office and replaced by the Jindan real person airborne by Yan State.
After a long period of hard work and his age, he finally became exhausted and his health became worse and worse.
When his intentions were in vain, he simply delegated power to return to power among the original family. He returned to Yichuan Auction House and guarded his place of success alone.
Just as he was waiting for his death, Lin Shan happened to come back.
After some conversation, both of them sighed.
"I have withdrawn from the family and given up all the assets in the family. It can be considered as leaving the house with nothing, and I have no relationship with the outside world since then."
"Yichuan Auction House is an industry that I have worked hard all my life, worked hard for most of my life, and worked hard outside in private. I can't just watch the sunset collapse so easily."
"So...ah ah ah ah..."
"Well...cough cough cough..."
Zuo Zhenren was trembling with a handkerchief, coughing up blood while looking into the distance.
"I will pass it on to my illegitimate son to protect him on the way!"
Lin Shan widened his eyes: "What? An illegitimate son?"
Good guy!
You are a son-in-law, who is not good at serving your parents' home when you are with a rich woman, and you are still flying colorful flags outside?
Why don’t I have this blessing?
He was sour here, but Zuo Zhenren had no shame. Instead, his eyebrows and eyes were sharp and righteous.
"Although I am married to my parents, I know that there are three kinds of unfilial piety, and it is better to have no descendants!"
"They were born with their mother's surname, but I, Zuo, cannot be defeated!"
"I am leaving seeds outside to comfort my ancestors and continue the incense. It is not a trivial intention. This is the right meaning, so why is it strange?"
......
Awesome!
Lin Shan seemed to know Zuo Zhenren for the first time, and said that looking for a mistress outside is so fresh and refined. It sounds very reasonable and takes over the righteousness!
I've never seen such a shameless person!
But why am I so envious?
You have been with you, your son-in-law has become a son-in-law, your mistress has been taken care of, and your illegitimate child has been arranged. The red flags at home will not fall, and the colorful flags are fluttering behind you.
In Lin Shan's eyes, his life is worth it.
When Zuo Zhenren talked about this, he was not satisfied. Instead, he became fond of the boss for his illegitimate child!
"Oh, this ignorant son knows to travel around the country all day long and ignore the world. I have tried hard to persuade him many times but failed. How can he inherit his family business in the future!"
"I told him to have a child's marriage when I was a child. The other party was the legitimate daughter of the cultivation family, but he looked down on him!"
"Unlocking his relationship with a sect to practice, it can be regarded as a complete inheritance of Lingshan blessed land, and he is still not interested!"
"He had no choice but to arrange the position of chief appraiser for him to familiarize himself with the industry and pave the way for future takeover. He left without saying a word, and he left for another three or four years!"
"I'm old, I can't move or control it. I'm really worried..."
......
Zuo Zhenren sighed, old and powerless.
A dignified Jindan real person, you can’t even control your own son.
Lin Shan had no choice but to comfort him with kind words and make him relieved.
"There is no need to worry about real people. Now the man is young and energetic, and he is rebellious and stubborn. When he grows up and experiences more outside, he will understand your good intentions in the past."
Zuo Zhenren shook his head and told him that things were much more than that simple.
"If the stranger is just a naughty man, that's fine! Before he left, he seemed to have met the Yunyou Taoist who was a way through Yichuan, and he heard about some rumors about the Black Lotus Sect!"
"From then on, I have to go to the mainland of the Song Dynasty to find the secrets of the Black Lotus Sect for thousands of years!"
"You said he was full and he didn't come back and inherit his family business. Why do you want to find the Demon Cult that eats people and doesn't spit bones?"
......
"What? Black Lotus Sect?"
Lin Shan was also surprised, but he didn't expect that he could hear information about the Black Lotus Sect here.
Haven’t the three righteous sects of the Song Dynasty already expelled all the demonic forces or killed them?
The most recent time I heard about the Black Lotus Sect now was when the Zhenzhi Academy of Lu State was destroyed.
"According to the mainland reports of the Song Dynasty, there seem to be some other things. After the battle between the righteous and the demons, they are still moving in secret, waiting for another counterattack from the outside world."
"These people who stayed are said to be part of the original local Black Lotus Sect. They did not want to follow the Demonic Way to evacuate the East China Sea to Lu State, so they continued to stay and lurk in their hometown."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! "The stranger heard that there is a seven-evil soul-locking technique in the Black Lotus Sect, which is so magical and so powerful, so he went to search for it!"
"He didn't think about it. With his little cultivation, how could he find the other party? Even if he was found, how could he learn the treasure skills from the Black Lotus Sect's gangsters, and it would be good if he didn't get knocked into the bone marrow!"
"What a ruthless man, just let him die outside."
......
The more Zuo Zhenren said, he became more and more angry, and he coughed constantly. His anger echoed throughout the fifth floor.
Lin Shan hurriedly comforted him, and at the same time he was secretly paying attention.
The Black Lotus Sect actually has a local sect in the Song Dynasty!
It seems that among the evacuated teams in the East China Sea that were not all leaving their hometowns like Yan Guardian. There are always people in the six realms of the Song Dynasty that cannot leave their hometowns, so they will go underground to continue their work.
Now that I have entered the Golden Pill stage, I may be able to find the Black Lotus Sect to see if there are any black lotus Buddha statues that can be found?
It is related to ancient charm, and he is more energetic than anyone else.
At this time, Zuo Zhenren also expressed his purpose in time. The words he said just now were also to raise the topic and make a request.
"My friend Lin, what if you meet that rioter in the Song Dynasty next day, and without delaying your work, what if you can pull him?"
"At my age, I can live one day. If I hadn't been obsessed with it, I'd probably left last month."
"I can't hold on for a little now, so I can only ask you."
Lin Shan's face was upright and responded solemnly.
"The real person has helped me a lot. This is just a trivial matter. If you encounter it, you will not stand by and watch it if you are within my ability!"
Zuo Zhenren couldn't help but shed tears and wanted to get up to thank him, but she couldn't stand up at all.
Lin Shan quickly stopped him from making big moves, just sit there, and then asked.
"I don't know what the son-in-law is?"
"Zuo Ning."
“Are there any characteristics?”
