In the blink of an eye, the day of the auction arrived. Lord Zeng and Lord Eight sat at a table, while the second master and the servant girl sat at a table.
The auction items were sold one after another, and the venue gradually heated up. It was noon, and after the intermission, the second round of the auction began.
Just like in the original novel, the three spirit medicines were blindly guessed, and the Cold Cicada Pearl was auctioned off alone. If Zhou Tong wasn't here, the Cold Cicada Pearl would probably also participate in the blind auction.
But the main character was here, so blind guessing was not appropriate. If Zhou Tong angered them, it would be difficult for them to step down.
Other than the need to raise money, the rest of the situation was basically the same as in the original novel. Lord Zeng had obtained three stalks of spirit medicine at three o'clock in the morning, and of course, the two suitcases of money Zhou Tong had brought had also been mostly used up.
There were only three bidders for the Cold Cicada Pearl: the Nippon Chamber of Commerce, Baylor, and a subordinate of Xinyue Restaurant.
In the end, Baylor lit the sky lamp and successfully obtained the Cold Cicada Pearl. Just as everyone was about to return to Sand City, trouble came.
A man in a mink coat was shouting around with a whip.
"You guys don't take me seriously. Where's that fake Three Whip Peng, the one who impersonated me? Hurry up and stand out!"
"Young master, are you Sanbian Peng?”
"What took you so long? The auction has already ended. I'm afraid your engagement with our young miss can only be annulled!”
"Void? I came all the way from the northwest, and you guys just say that it's invalid? You must be joking!"
"Third Master Peng, no matter what reason you have, the auction is over. You didn't get a single item in the second round of bidding. Moreover, you're late.”
"I don't care. My invitation was stolen. Your Xinyue Hotel has to compensate me. Otherwise, I won't let it go.”
"Compensation? Third Master Peng, it's the rule of Xinyue Restaurant to give each person a card. You don't care about the name card. You lost it and now you're blaming us.”
"If you leave now, our Xinyue Hotel won't hold it against you. If you dare to cause trouble here, don't blame us for being impolite. Staff slave, send this Third Master Peng to the guest room to rest.”
Zhou Tong, Lord Zeng, and Lord Ba looked down at the barking of Peng Sanbian as if they were watching a show.
"Second Young Master, thank goodness we have you. Otherwise, we would have to put on a scene of the real and fake Three Whip Peng.”
"It's fine. I'm just doing this for the safety of my master and master's wife. It's best if there's less trouble.”
"Let's just continue watching the show and see how this Xinyue Restaurant deals with the troublemakers.”
"Heh heh, Second Young Master, you're very insightful. But then again, this Peng Three Whip really has some skills. This whip can even break a person's bones when it hits them.”
"Hehe, it's just a small trick."
Although the voices of the three people were not loud, the Listening Slave heard every word and repeated it word by word to the other person.
Peng Sanbian was rendered speechless by the host's words, but he couldn't afford to lose face by leaving in such a sorry state.
Although it was embarrassing enough now, he was still angry. He was embarrassed and angry.
The humiliation had already happened, but this anger had to be vented today no matter what.
Seeing that Peng Sanbian didn't know what was good for him, the host was prepared to send a staff slave over to take Peng Sanbian out.
The staff slave's strength was still passable, but it was far inferior to Peng Sanbian. In addition, Peng Sanbian was famous for his whip skills, and he was able to use a whip to perfection.
With so many staff slaves, they actually couldn't take down Peng Sanbian.
"Young master, don't you think the security measures of this Xinyue Hotel are too bad? They can't even take down a small Peng Sanbian!”
"Master Eight, why don't you go down and show off your true skills?”
"Lord Zeng, don't tease me. Others don't know me, but you do. Wouldn't a three-legged cat like me be courting death if I went up?”
"If you can't do it, then don't talk. Second Young Master, what do you think of this staff slave's martial arts?”
"Your kung fu is good. It's not inferior to our subordinates. In addition, you advance and retreat in an orderly manner. This Xinyue Restaurant lives up to its reputation.”
"Alright, Lord Zeng, the show is almost over. I'll go find my master. Let's get the medicine and prepare to leave!”
"Well, if we stay any longer, it will be inevitable that there will be more problems. Let Eighth Brother go and inform him. Didn't you also auction the Cold Cicada Pearl? Just in time to settle the accounts."
"Lord Zeng, pay attention to this mad dog. Don't let him bite my master and master's wife.”
"Leave it to me. Don't worry!"
Zhou Tong was just about to leave when he heard Peng Sanbian once again spout wild words.
"Your Xinyue Restaurant is just so-so. I, Peng Sanbian, will say this today. Either you hand over your family's young miss, and we'll live in peace.”
"Or, help me find out who took my name card and find the person.”
"I remember that one of them is a famous actor in Sand City, February Hong (Red)!”
"What famous actor? I've never heard of him. Peng Sanbian, I gave you face but you refused. Do you really think that our Xinyue Restaurant has no one?”
"You Xin Yuefan Er Yue Hong (Red), stop right there.”
Coincidentally, just as Second Master was about to help Madam leave, he was discovered by Peng Sanbian.
Peng Sanbian swung his whip and hooked it onto the railing on the second floor. He broke through the encirclement of the staff slaves and ran straight towards Second Master.
Just as Peng Sanbian's whip was about to hit the Second Master, Zhou Tong appeared.
"Master, please leave with Master's wife. I'll be fine!”
When Zhou Tong had just seen Peng Sanbian use his whip to hook the railing and charge at the Second Master, he had already known that this mad dog had found his master.
At this moment, Zhou Tong was at the stairway between the second and third floors. The distance between him and Three-Whip Peng was about the same as the distance between Three-Whip Peng and his master.
There was no time to think, and he unleashed all his power, stepping on the staff slave's shoulder and chasing after him. He had made the first move, and Zhou Tong was the first to sense his master's side. He grabbed the whip that was about to strike his master.
"Are you courting death?"
A killing intent that had accumulated after killing countless people surged straight towards Three-Whip Peng.
This almost tangible killing intent caused Peng Sanbian to freeze on the spot.
Normally speaking, no matter how strong Zhou Tong's killing intent was, it wouldn't have any effect on him, but last time in the Empress Dowager's tomb, Zhou Tong had eaten up all the Panic Wood, causing his spiritual power to soar.
This caused such a shocking scene. At this moment, Peng Sanbian seemed to be stared at by a huge beast, and he could not help but take a few steps back.
Even the fellow who was eating, the whip that everyone was talking about, had been dragged over by Zhou Tong.
"I... You, you... Who exactly are you?"
"Who am I? I'm someone you can't afford to offend. If you don't want to die, then sit here quietly. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that you'll be able to leave North City alive.”
Zhou Tong wouldn't simply say vicious words. He raised his whip and heavily lashed out at the joint of Peng Sanbian's leg, pulling it with all his might.
Peng Sanbian's extremely strong force caused him to kneel on the ground.
He looked at Zhou Tong with a terrified expression. He wanted to attack, but he discovered that he simply couldn't. He wanted to open his mouth to curse, but he discovered that he simply didn't have the courage to open his mouth.
Having done all this, Zhou Tong did not leave, but instead slowly made his way to the third floor. As for Peng Sanbian, he remained kneeling on the ground, not daring to move.
