Chapter 98 - The Beauty’s Grace

Edited by NZRose

The corridor was dim, with candles on both sides, giving off a dull and depressing atmosphere, and people passed by from time to time.

Halfway through, the man who led the way said: “Woman, you are dressed a little bit shabby now, come here to change.”

Ling Fengxiao nodded and said: “Okay.”

Lin Shu also turned into this room.

——I’m afraid that this “night market” has done such things as “selling little girls”. It has a well-equipped dressing room, and the wall on one side was full of all kinds of clothes.

The man said: “Si Niang, dress them up.”

“Oh.” The woman known as “Si Niang” had a huge and unfriendly mole on her chin, with a fierce look on her eyes, like an old procuress.

The old procuress said: “Are you new goods here?”

Ling Fengxiao said coldly: “Get her out.”

The man made a face, took the old procuress out, and closed the door.

Ling Fengxiao began to choose among the clothes.

——In order to be realistic and create the image of “sisters in distress”, their clothes were not only scratched and torn on purpose, but also stained with a lot of dust during their travel in the past few days.

——Later, a white dress was placed in front of Lin Shu.

Ling Fengxiao took a red one and said, “I’ll change on the other side.”

Lin Shu: “Okay.”

Ling Fengxiao then turned to the screen.

Lin Shu began to change clothes.

This dress was made of excellent white silk. It was as thin as a cicada’s wings, and its texture was like running water. It doesn’t feel like he had anything on his body.

Lin Shu had a struggle with the embroidered belt and waist buckle before he could put them on. Standing in front of the mirror, he had to admire the fairy’s temperament.

The style of the dress was very simple, with flowing clouds and wide sleeves, light silver waist, and patterns – it was only embroidered with cloud water with dark patterns, but it looked like moonlight pouring down on the ground, like ice and snow.

He thought for a while, and let his hair fall out for aesthetic reasons.

&#k2014;&#k2014;Now he is, even more, a lively fairy.

He was very satisfied with his image, but Big Miss has not come out yet, so he could only wait outside.

&#k2014;&#k2014;Now he finally understands the feeling that his college roommate often complained to other roommates, waiting for his girlfriend to put on makeup every day.

Another quarter of an hour later, Big Miss turned out from behind the screen.

The light in the room was dim, which made the person shine.

Lin Shu was in a trance. He only felt that the beauty of the world was extremely beautiful.

The bright red robes were complicated and complex, and the hem was painted with gold-sprinkled peonies. Under the corner of her right eye, a tear mole was dotted with golden sand.

Big Miss rarely pulled up her ink-black hair, inserting two golden steps diagonally on each side, and a diamond-shaped red jade clasp in the middle was shining which matched her clothes.

The colors in this world seem to gather together and become brilliant colors.

Lin Shu thought, just now the man said that no matter how beautiful a little girl is, she can’t sell a thousand taels of gold – if he saw the young lady at this time, he would not think so.

He looked at Ling Fengxiao and found that Ling Fengxiao was also looking at him.

After staring at each other for a while, Ling Fengxiao turned to one side, tore off a piece of white gauze as thin as cicada wings from a white dress, pulled off the silver hook on the dress, and took them forward.

Then Lin Shu was veiled.

——The lower half of his face was covered with light gauze, which made him look dusty again.

“If you are sold, what is a million taels of gold?” she said.

Lin Shu was praised by Big Miss in this way, and he sincerely returned her praise as he said: “You can almost bring disaster to the country now.”

Big Miss laughed.

“Let’s go.”

Walking out, he saw the man and Si Niang look stupefied.

Ling Fengxiao said coldly: “Aren’t we leaving yet?”

——They were just like waking up from a dream: “Go, let’s go.”

The corridor in front was obviously wide and bright, and after walking for a while, turning a bend, they arrived at a magnificent hall.

At the front of the hall, there was a long table with treasures on it, and an old man in elegant clothes sat beside the table full of composure.

The old man stood next to a small servant, singing the price.

“Three thousand taels of gold, second call——”

“Thirteen guests increase the price of Tianzi, three thousand and five hundred taels–”

“Three thousand five hundred and two golds, the first call——”

It’s probably the calling and selling of the night market, which is called auction in modern times.

The man led them up a staircase to the private room on the second floor which had a sign written “Tianzi No. 1”.

After entering, he bowed respectfully and said: “Distinguished guest, these are the beauty you wanted.”

The distinguished guest sat on the sandalwood chair, his whole body was wrapped in black robes, and behind him stood six men in black.

“Oh?” The distinguished guest turned his head and looked over. After a while, he said, “They’re really a peerless beauty.”

The man’s voice was hoarse like there seemed to be broken wood rubbing in his throat.

“Why didn’t you auction such a beauty?”

“Return to the distinguished guest.” The man said, “All beauties are in trouble. The night market knows how to handle them properly.”

“That’s right.” The distinguished guest said: “These beauties are in trouble. Naturally, they have extraordinary origins. I don’t know how many people would miss them.”

The man bowed and said, “Exactly, night markets never do hot business. Only with your identity, one could avoid trouble.”

“Then I’ll take them,” said the distinguished guest

The man said: “Please take care of them.”

When he went out, the distinguished guest said, “Show them the things.”

Then a man in black held a blood jade box in front of Lin Shu and Ling Fengxiao.

The distinguished guest said: “I just bought this thing for a hundred thousand taels of gold. It is called “’Beauty’s Grace” and it has not grown up yet. Legend has it that it needs the hands of a peerless beauty to take care of it before it can only blossom and bear fruit. From now on, I will leave it to the two girls to take care of them. If it bears fruit, it will be so blue-eyed. It would not be unreasonable for the two beauties to be granted freedom.”

Ling Fengxiao said, “Thank you very much.”

The distinguished guest said: “If the care is broken, you naturally know the consequences.”

Ling Fengxiao said: “We don’t dare to neglect.”

The distinguished guest turned his head and did not look at them anymore. Instead, he said to a man in black: “How much money do we still have?”

Man in Black: “Enough.”

“Very good,” said the distinguished guest.

Lin Shu held the box and did not dare to take care of it.

God knows, he was not a peerless beauty, just an innocent boy.

This “Beauty’s Grace” is said to be taken care of by beauties. It must be very picky and may be allergic to men. Once touched by him, it might get mad and die. What should he do?

He handed the box to Big Miss: “You take it.”

Ling Fengxiao was silent for a while, but didn’t answer: “You take it.”

Lin Shu said, “You are a beauty.”

Ling Fengxiao said: “You are more beautiful.”

At a stalemate, he suddenly heard the distinguished guest mutter to himself in that extremely unpleasant hoarse voice: “I will definitely buy 《Everlasting Yearning》...”

Lin Shu jumped in his heart and nearly threw the box out.

The Sword Pavillion’s 《Everlasting Yearning》?

Although he remembered the skills by heart, the secret book has been lost in this world for a long time, the missing 《Everlasting Yearning》? Will it be auctioned at the night market?

He confirmed that he heard it right.
