It was pouring rain outside, and the raindrops hit the wind chimes, creating a tinkling sound mixed with the notes of the strings.

The waiter removed his gloves and handed over a folded booklet.

"Once the Golden Eye were removed from the Golden-Eyed Beast, they lost their nourishment, but they were well kept in the Water Wood Liquid for ten days."

After about twelve or thirteen days, the essence within will gradually be lost, and after a month or so, more than half will be lost. To ensure the best effect, it is best for you to take it within ten days.

Enclosed in the booklet is a highly effective prescription, written by Mr. Huang Kunsheng, a third-rank master pharmacist from Sky Vessel Tower, based on pharmacological analysis. This prescription maximizes the efficacy of the Golden Eye a type of medicine), and is presented to you, sir.

Open the booklet.

"Buddleja Flower, Schizonepeta, Inula Flower, Gardenia, Ligusticum Wallichii, Amur Cork Tree... in water, and after boiling, fumigate the eyes until half the water is gone, then pierce the Golden Eye and take out the fluid inside..."

Liang Qu had studied medicine and had a basic ability to identify herbs and their pharmacology.

The prescriptions in the booklet are indeed medicines for improving eyesight from a pharmacological perspective, and the combination is quite ingenious.

He would never be able to figure it out; he could only make out some clues.

Liang Qu carefully put away the booklet and expressed his gratitude.

The waiter turned to the side.

"Would you like lunch, young master? It's raining heavily outside. You can rest in the exhibition hall for a while. If you're in a hurry to leave, the Chamber of Commerce has also arranged a carriage."

Liang Qu asked in surprise, "You've arranged carriages for everyone?"

The waiter bowed. "A total of one hundred and thirty-eight vehicles."

One hundred and thirty-eight, which matches the exact number of items auctioned today...

Liang Qu saw many waiters holding umbrellas and giving them to those bidders who had nothing to offer.

In other words, all the bidders who won the auction arranged for a car, and those who didn't were prepared with umbrellas.

Celestial Ship Merchant Guild provides truly first-class service; you can experience the joy of spending money there.

"Forget about the eclipse. I still have something to take care of. You go ahead and do your thing. You don't need to follow me."

The waiter bowed and withdrew.

Liang Qu looked around and walked in a certain direction.

As Xu Zishuai was examining the other auction items, he turned around and found that there was nothing behind him.

Strange, where is Junior Brother Liang? In another corner of the auction hall, he was surrounded by admirers.

"Congratulations, Brother Shao. Although the Thunder Character Seal Technique is a mid-level martial art, it is still a rare and excellent martial art because it has the properties of myriad forms."

His words inevitably carried a hint of envy.

The term "myriad phenomena" refers to the phenomena of all things. Martial arts that incorporate wind, fire, thunder, and lightning in their moves are examples of myriad phenomena-based martial arts.

Stepping on the ground leaves frost, drawing the sword condenses fire—these are all examples of this kind, and are even rarer than ordinary martial arts.

"With this martial art, when I see Brother Shao again, my skills will surely be even better, and I will be in the limelight."

"It's a pity, it would be even better if this method were superior."

Wei Shao, positioned at the center of the group, humbly held the scroll with his hands clasped in respect.

"If it were truly a superior Cultivation Method, I wouldn't have been able to acquire it; it would have cost tens of thousands of taels. Furthermore, in the path of martial arts, realm is fundamental, while martial arts skills are merely icing on the cake."

Upon hearing this, the others readily agreed, but then an untimely remark came from behind the screen.

"I don't think there's any need to rush to congratulate them."

Wei Shao frowned upon hearing this.

Who's spoiling the mood like this? Liang Qu stepped out from behind the screen, blocking Wei Shao's path. The scene was exactly the same as before! It's that kid...

Wei Shao gradually faded as he held the scroll.

Liang Qu glanced down at the printed scroll, then looked up at Wei Shao and smiled.

"The Thunder Character Seal Technique, starting bid 500 taels, final bid 3,400 taels, am I right?"

Wei Shao squinted and tilted his head slightly.

"So what if it is?"

Sensing the coldness in Wei Shao's words, the expressions of the people following Wei Shao changed slightly. They looked Liang Qu up and down, and after the image overlapped with their memories, they gradually exuded hostility.

The River Conservancy Office had been in Ping Yang County for so long, and its biggest loss came from cracking down on the Fish Gang.

Despite the immense credit, he received very little, to the point that the Chief Supervisor commander overshadowed him.

The person who started it all is right in front of me, so of course I can't mistake him.

The harmonious atmosphere vanished without a trace. Liang Qu's appearance was like driving an iron nail into a smooth and soft wooden board, breaking the flatness.

Martial Artist have incredibly sharp senses; the moment hostility was revealed, so many people present noticed it.

Having personally handed over the Ten Thousand Year Immortal Vine, Zhu Bingcan had to divert some of his attention to the two of them.

Today is the opening day, Auspicious Day, so blood must be avoided at all costs.

"What is Junior Brother Liang doing? Did he get into a conflict with someone?"

"Don't rush, let's take a look first."

Yu Dun stopped Xu Zishuai from stepping forward.

Several Hunting Tiger were present, including Yang Dongxiong and Xu Yuelong; they were not just there for show.

Zhu Bingcan's strength is unknown, but it is certainly not low.

As the Steward of the Celestial Ship Merchant Guild in Ping Yang County, he least wanted things to go wrong on the first day of the Celestial Ship Merchant Guild's opening.

"They're going head-to-head with Wei Shao again?"

Ran Zhongshi and Xiang Fangsu exchanged a glance, then looked at Xu Yuelong together.

Xu Yuelong then turned to look at Wei Lin on the other side and found that Wei Lin was also looking at him.

Dressed in crimson robes, as red as blood, Wei Lin grinned at Xu Yuelong, revealing his gleaming white teeth.

"This is interesting. Let's wait a bit, there's no rush to leave."

The officers from the Three Laws Department and the Demon Subduing Division, who had originally planned to go back for dinner after taking their belongings, couldn't help but stay and watch the show when they saw this scene.

Most of the people present were from Imperial Capital and knew a lot about gossip, including the conflicts between Xu Yuelong and Wei Lin's fathers and grandfathers.

Seeing the two gazing "affectionately" at each other, even those who hadn't met Liang Qu and Wei Shao much could guess that they belonged to different sides.

Who doesn't like to join in the fun?

A thousand people, a thousand faces; a hundred different expressions.

Zhu Bingcan was sweating profusely and quickly apologized.

"I'm so sorry, Lord Jian, I..."

"Hey, young people are hot-blooded. Steward Zhu, you don't need to worry about me. Today is the grand opening day, we shouldn't cause any trouble."

"Lord Jian."

The atmosphere in the auction hall changed drastically. Liang Qu, like an iron nail, slammed into it, tearing a crack that almost broke the entire wooden board.

Curiosity, hostility, indifference... the emotions in those gazes were too numerous to describe.

Liang Qu remained unmoved. He took out a glass bottle from his pocket and shook the Golden Eye that were submerged in the Shui Mu liquid.

"The Golden-Eyed Beast's eyes, starting bid 800 taels! Final price 3,600 taels, almost the same as your Thunder Character Seal Technique."

Fight me! If you lose, you'll have to teach me your Thunder Character Seal Technique!

If you win, I'll give you my Golden Eye! How about it?

Wei Shao frowned, feeling all eyes on him, and turned his neck uncomfortably.

What a ruthless kid.

He never expected that his actions before the auction would cause him trouble; he was just teasing a dog, and now he's being bitten in return.

With the die already cast, he had no choice but to comply.

What do you want to compete with me in?

"Swimming! Let's have a swimming contest!"

Liang Qu grinned.

"We're all from the River Conservancy Office. You shouldn't be afraid of swimming, right?"

Rain Water splashed against the windowsill, and the wind chimes rang more and more urgently.

Swimming contest? As people from the River Conservancy Office, we shouldn't be afraid of swimming contests; it's all about skill on the water.

However, Wei Shao had heard about Liang Qu's Fate Standard.

It is rare, even among the sons of the powerful and wealthy, to be associated with False Dragon.

It's so obvious that he has a water-loving Fate Standard; suggesting a life closer to water suggests he came prepared, even if he...

Wei Shao hesitated for a moment, then suddenly felt a cold gaze upon him, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"Compare with him."

Wei Lin's voice was cold and flat.

Wei Shao lowered his head obediently.

"Yes!"
