Chapter 3880 Lingshan Traditional Arts
Gao Changgong... Although Old Gao had nothing to do, Boss Luo had given him a special task earlier.
—Looking for a special [Gold Card].
Obviously, this is not a task that can be completed in a short time, and Boss Luo has not given any deadline... But that doesn't mean that Lao Gao will slack off.
Ancient soul messengers were all very principled!
……
Since he was already there, Gao Changgong didn't actually leave the hotel immediately... He planned to go to the banquet hall to take a look, since this banquet had gathered many immortals from the [Mythological Side].
There are always some people who emerge from obscure corners and know things that others don't.
Nowadays, Lao Gao doesn't recognize any of the Black Souls in the shop... oh, except for Miss Nan.
However, in Lao Gao's mind, Miss Nan has actually been temporarily removed from the Black Soul's tier—it should be Noble Nan.
Therefore, Gao Changgong did not intend to ask anyone to lead the way, but quietly entered the banquet hall and listened discreetly to the chatter of the guests around him.
He was completely out of touch with this new era of Void Gods, so listening to the idle chatter of these upstarts was somewhat interesting—at least much more interesting than what he had just been doing at the bar.
Old Gao obviously didn't have a fixed seat, so he stood alone in front of the long table in the buffet area, and no one came to disturb him.
"Brother, I heard that a treasure map has appeared in the Void Sea, containing the great secret of the second node of the Primordial Era... But I'm all alone and outnumbered. Are you interested in pulling off a big heist?"
……
"I thought that after transcending the small world, I could roam freely across the vast world, but after years of hard work, I am still wasting my time in [Morning Star]... When will I be able to set foot on the scenery of [Radiant Moon]?"
"Dude, you're already at the limit of [Morning Star], right? You're just a little bit short of a lucky encounter, be patient..."
"This auction might just be my chance... I've staked everything on this! Otherwise, not even a dog would bother with this shady place!"
—If the dog won't come, I will!
……
There's not much useful information.
...just then.
"Heh... Xin Shisan, it really is you! What a small world... It's time we settled the score for ruining my plans last time, isn't it?"
Upon hearing this, the handsome man named Xin Shisan's eyes widened slightly in panic, and he immediately headed towards the door. However, a burly man in animal hide grabbed his collar and held him back, preventing him from leaving.
"Let go...let go! What do you think you're doing?! This isn't a place where you can mess around!"
"You owe me 100,000 small world primordial units, you haven't forgotten, have you? It's written in black and white, a soul contract, are you trying to deny it?"
Xin Shisan immediately said with a bitter expression, "Brother, listen to me. I really intended to return the money to you... but, there was a little accident."
"Are you trying to rob me?" The burly man in the animal skin sneered.
“It’s not that…” Xin Shisan stammered, “It’s just… it’s just that I couldn’t resist and went to [Eslold]…”
The burly man in the animal hide slapped Xin Shisan across the face, spitting and yelling, "Pah! You gambling dog, you'll die a horrible death! You even dared to go into the Void Casino?"
"This... this is just a gamble, trying to turn [Morning Star] into [Radiant Moon]..." [Xin Shisan] said with a wry smile, "Recently, [Eslold] organized a challenge competition. Whoever can win ten consecutive matches will get a bottle of [Radiant Moon Dew]..."
"The 'Moon Dew,' which claims to allow just one drop to transform 'Morning Star' into 'Moon Dew'?!" The burly man in animal hide gasped. "Really?"
“Brother, how could I lie to you… It’s just that I was incredibly unlucky; I only made it to the fifth round before losing.” [Xin Shisan] sighed. “What a waste of my 100,000 units of registration fee… I was originally planning to give it to you after I won [Dew of the Shining Moon]!”
"Ha, I don't believe you for a second!" The burly man in the animal hide sneered, then dragged Xin Shisan away. "Since you have no money to pay, then let me calm down and consider it interest!"
Just then, a man dressed in white with a crystal mask suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
The burly man in animal skin, adhering to the principle of avoiding trouble, frowned slightly. "Brother, did we disturb you? I can apologize, but this guy owes me a lot of money. It's not unreasonable for me to confront him, is it?"
Clad in white… Gao Changgong looked at Xin Shisan, whose face was ashen, and said calmly, “You’ve been to the Esroller’s City gambling den?”
“This…” Xin Shisan nodded subconsciously. “Brother, is there something you’re saying?”
Gao Changgong thought for a moment and said, "Tell me the location of [Eslold], and I'll help you solve your problem."
Xin Shisan's eyes lit up immediately!
—One of the survival rules in the void: those who wear white are usually very powerful!
—The second rule of survival in the void: those who wear masks are usually pretty awesome too!
—White clothes and a mask, hanging upside down!
"No, buddy, isn't this against the rules?" The burly man in the animal skin frowned even more deeply, grabbing Xin Shisan by the neck and lifting him up. "If you want to know the location of the gambling city, I'll just have this guy tell you. Why ruin the harmony?"
Under Xin Shisan's almost pleading gaze, Lao Gao simply nodded lightly, "That's fine too."
—No, you're making it even more arrogant... Shouldn't it be someone aloof and principled, cool and self-willed, only caring about what you think and not what others think? This script is wrong!!
"[Xin Shisan], tell me! Where has the gambling city of [Eslord] recently drifted to?!"
Xin Shisan immediately seized the opportunity, broke free, and hid behind Gao Changgong. "Boss, if you really want to find Eslord, please help me this time... otherwise, even if you kill me, I won't tell!"
"You son of a bitch! Get back here!" The burly man in the animal skin flew into a rage and immediately lunged at the other man.
The two of them immediately grabbed Lao Gao and started a game of grabbing and dodging.
"presumptuous."
Old Gao's patience had reached its limit.
With a snap, both the burly man in animal hide and Xin Shisan were instantly thrown back, spitting out a mouthful of blood, their expressions filled with terror... Throwing people away is not unusual, the key is that the power in this banquet hall is sealed!
There is only one possibility!
This man in white is someone from the shop... or at least someone with connections!
"Brother... no, boss!" The burly man in the animal skin took a deep breath. "I'm sorry, it was my fault for being impolite. If I have offended you, I apologize... Please accept this small token of my appreciation!"
The burly man in animal hide simply pulled out a translucent purple crystal card with silver trim from his pocket. "This is an anonymous crystal card from the Void Bank, containing 50,000 units of Origin..."
The burly man in animal hides respectfully handed it over... There's no better way to apologize than giving the small world's primordial units directly; these are the hard currency of the void.
Old Gao casually took it and said indifferently, "You can go now."
"Thank you, boss!" The burly man in the animal skin nodded resignedly, then glared fiercely at [Xin Shisan] before leaving decisively without uttering any harsh words.
Gao Changgong calmly asked, "Xin Shisan, where do you want to go?"
While the burly man in the animal skin was backing down, Xin Shisan was quietly crawling on the ground... Upon hearing this, he crawled even faster!
Unfortunately, his time seemed to have been reversed, returning to its original state in a strange, rewind-like manner.
"...Big, boss, what's wrong with your mouth?" [Xin Shisan] chuckled awkwardly, "I was originally planning to get you some drinks... You see, I've been heading towards the drinks section... no, over there! Ahahaha..."
"Where is the Void Casino?" Gao Changgong asked directly, his gaze sharp.
“This…” Xin Shisan’s gaze shifted slightly, but he saw that the burly man in animal skins hadn’t actually left and was still staring at him. He gritted his teeth and said, “Boss, how about this, I’ll take you there myself? The gambling city [Eslord] is in drift mode in this era. Only old customers like me can find it!”
Gao Changgong remained silent.
Xin Shisan said in a low voice, "Boss, someone like you, how could you travel without anyone serving you? Don't let my appearance fool you, I'm very good at taking care of people! Really!"
Gao Changgong pondered for a moment and said, "Aren't you going to participate in the auction?"
Xin Shisan said, "I'm penniless, what can I afford? I can't possibly mortgage my soul, can I? I'm just here to freeload and save face..."
Gao Changgong said calmly, "Lead the way."
"Alright, boss! You're so aloof... What's your name, boss? Do you need a companion?"
"Shut up."
"Okay!"
Xin Shisan was startled and quickly followed behind Lao Gao... When they passed the buffet area, he also grabbed a few pieces of food and took away two bottles of wine.
……
The banquet hall was enormous, so what happened in a corner about a gambling addict didn't attract much attention... After all, with power sealed, no one could care about the whole room with their mind.
After the hotel manager finished visiting the two VIP rooms, he made a formal appearance, and after a standard speech, the banquet officially began.
"The auction will be held in three days... During this period, which also coincides with the opening of our new hotel, all normal consumption will be half price."
This was probably the news that the attendees wanted to hear the most.
After all, charging 3888 for a plate of sunflower seeds here is just too much.
"Huh, what's with this 'normal spending'?"
……
……
……
……
The void... [Heavenly Court and Heavenly Palace], Lingxiao Palace.
The current leader of the Heavenly Palace is sitting on his throne, intently polishing an oval-shaped precious jade—not an ordinary precious jade, but a World Jade formed after the complete destruction of the Golden World.
As a seasoned jade connoisseur, this "World Jade" has been handled by the "Jade Emperor" for countless years—more than he ever handled the jade of his concubines.
Playing with [World Jade] always brings peace of mind and joy to the [Jade Emperor].
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Guests from [Lingshan]!" Just then, a sharp voice suddenly rang out from outside the hall, "The Ancient Buddha [Randeng] has come to visit!"
Upon hearing this, the Jade Emperor's hand trembled involuntarily, and the World Jade almost slipped from his grasp.
"[Lighting the Lamp]?" His Majesty frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said calmly, "Please come quickly."
Before he could invite the jade, he needed to pack up a whole set of jade-polishing tools... So what if he's the ruler of the Heavenly Court? Can't he have a little hobby?
A moment later, brilliant spiritual light shone into the hall, and a dignified old monk in white robes with long eyebrows walked slowly into the hall with his hands clasped together.
“Amitabha, this old monk greets the Jade Emperor.”
“Master Ran Deng…a rare guest indeed?” The Jade Emperor looked him over with a smile. “What matter could possibly require your presence? My humble Lingxiao Palace is almost bursting at the seams with your spiritual light.”
"The Jade Emperor is infinitely wise, and naturally knew why this old monk had come." The white-robed old monk slightly opened his eyes. "This time, I have come precisely for the experiment between the two sides. Does the Jade Emperor still remember the exchange experiment between Azure and Canaan?"
"Of course I remember." The Jade Emperor thought for a moment and said, "However, I remember that this experiment should have been a clean break. There was an agreement that no matter who the test subjects were, they would not interfere with each other... Master, why is that?"
"[Jade Emperor], you must have received the invitation from [the Shop]." The Ancient Buddha Dipankara said calmly, "The actions of [the Shop] have damaged the foundation of [Void Spirit Mountain]. Regarding this matter, [Spirit Mountain] has already boycotted it and did not attend."
The Jade Emperor calmly said, "Master, our two families have always been clearly separated, with a buffer zone between us... Whether I participate in this [shop] auction or not should have nothing to do with your side, right? My people are already in the [shop]... Master, do you perhaps want me to recall them now?"
Actually, when the invitation appeared in the Lingxiao Palace, the Jade Emperor was completely bewildered... Who knew how the Ziwei Emperor had inexplicably entered and was regarded as a representative of the Heavenly Court and Heavenly Palace?
But he'd already gone, what else could he do?
Call them back... Are you being so disrespectful?
"No, no." The Ancient Buddha [Dipankara] gently shook his head. "What the [Shop] wants to do, we naturally cannot and should not interfere with. However, regarding this [Journey to the West], I wonder if the [Jade Emperor] would be interested in doing anything?"
The Jade Emperor couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
As the saying goes, no one visits the temple without a reason... and it was this [Lantern] who came. It seems that the [Shop]'s antics really made these bald guys furious.
Actually, the Jade Emperor mainly felt that it was because these bald guys were too stingy—how could he stop the shop's crazy operations so quickly?
It's actually very simple!
Just throw money at it!
They're unwilling to spend money but come to me to complain... That's just the traditional skill of these bald guys, always trying to take advantage!
“Master, let’s not beat around the bush.” The Jade Emperor waved his hand and said, “I have no interest in cryptic exchanges, nor do I like beating around the bush. If you wish to continue like this, please leave. My small palace cannot accommodate such a great Buddha as you.”
[Lighting the Lamp] The ancient Buddha smiled slightly, "Traveling is going far, [Westward Journey]... it can go even further, can't it?"
The Jade Emperor frowned slightly and pondered, "You mean... the Heavenly Kingdom?"
"Good, good..."
"Heh...that sounds interesting."
