When I woke up, I entered Terraria?!

Chapter 143 The auction begins

After hearing this, Zhang Xu nodded and motioned Qi Yu to get out of the car. Then she threw three silver coins into the old man's hand and took Qi Yu into the central weapons store.

The coachman driving the carriage looked at the three silver coins in his hand and immediately laughed happily. He thought happily in his heart: I still like to do business with these wizards, because they are all rich and very generous. Now, I can buy my granddaughter her favorite meat-filled buns.

The old man weighed a few silver coins in his hand and drove the carriage away.

Qi Yu followed Zhang Xu into the central weapons shop. As soon as he stepped through the door, Qi Yu found something different. Normally, a large number of civilians and ordinary adventurers would gather on the first floor to choose goods, but today, the first floor was exceptionally quiet. There was not a single customer in the hall, not even anyone setting up stalls.

Just when Qi Yu was feeling a little confused, a staff member in work clothes quickly walked up to the two of them, looked at Zhang Xu's teacher-level wizard robe, and saluted respectfully.

"Hello, Miss Mage, are you here to attend the auction?" the staff member asked in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

Zhang Xu nodded, took out a piece of paper that looked like an invitation from the ring and handed it to him.

The latter took it with both hands, examined it carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he glanced at Qi Yu standing next to him, then respectfully returned the paper to Zhang Xu and said, "Dear guests, welcome to the auction of the Central Weapon Shop. Please come this way."

Looking in the direction of his finger, I saw that next to the stairs leading to the upper floor, there was an additional staircase leading to the underground floor. This staircase was not there when Qi Yu came to buy things before.

"Maybe it's because today is an auction, so it's special." Qi Yu said to himself.

Zhang Xu led Qi Yu to follow the pace of the staff and walked underground. There was a red carpet along the way, and there were quaint lanterns hanging on the surrounding walls, and the environment was very good.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the three of them stopped in front of a huge door. There were two security guards guarding the door. Both of them were wearing masks and their expressions could not be seen, but their state was similar to the two wooden figures in front of the faculty and staff office building.

As the three people approached, the two guards raised their hands and blocked their way forward, and Zhang Xu handed the invitation letter to the two.

After the two guards finished the inspection, they moved aside to make way. The staff member leading the way gently pushed open the door, led the two people in, and then closed the door again.

As soon as Qi Yu stood still, he turned his head and looked around. What came into view was a huge hall with a counter in the center of the hall.

The staff member led Qi Yu and the other person to the counter, and then whispered something to the two staff members behind the counter. The two nodded after hearing it, then walked out from behind the counter and stood in front of Zhang Xu and Qi Yu respectively.

Qi Yu looked at the tall staff member in front of him, not knowing what he meant. Zhang Xu beside him patted Qi Yu on the shoulder and said, "Next, we will separate. We will gather at the gate when the auction is over. And don't forget what I told you, the number 5."

Zhang Xu made a 5 gesture and then left with the staff member.

Qi Yu understood what Zhang Xu was talking about. She was talking about the secret code that they had agreed upon before to identify the other party, but he did not intend to abide by it all the time, at least not when it came to the auction of the Frost Core.

The staff member next to him bowed slightly and said, "Please follow me, distinguished sir." After that, he led the way in front, and Qi Yu followed slowly.

After walking for a while, Qi Yu was brought into a room. The room was not big, about 30 square meters. There was a set of tables and chairs inside, with some fruits and drinks on the table. Lanterns of the same style as the corridor were hung on the walls around it.

Qi Yu walked around the room a few times and found a black screen embedded in the wall opposite his seat. The entire screen was full of a sense of technology and was very inconsistent with the decoration of the entire room.

Qi Yu looked at the screen carefully with curiosity. This was the first time he saw such a high-tech mechanical creation in this world. Especially the blue light around the screen that kept flashing like breathing.

Seeing Qi Yu's interest, the staff member next to him smiled and introduced: "This is a monitor purchased by our store from the Mechanical Kingdom. It is of high quality and made of high-end materials. It is most suitable for home use. If you like it, you can go to our manager to purchase it after the auction is over."

After hearing her words, Qi Yu realized that there was another person in the room. He felt embarrassed for his loss of composure, nodded to indicate that he understood, and sat down on the chair.

As Qi Yu sat down, the staff member beside him slowly walked up to his back and stood there, as if waiting for something.

Qi Yu didn't say anything, because he felt that he couldn't act like an unsophisticated person, so he quietly picked up the fruit beside him and started eating.

About 30 minutes later, the screen in front of Qi Yu suddenly lit up, and a picture appeared above the screen.

Qi Yu looked up at the screen, giving him the illusion that he was watching a movie on Blue Star.

The image on the screen showed a man dressed in gorgeous clothes, wearing the same mask as the staff, holding an auction hammer in one hand and a loudspeaker in the other, standing quietly on a stage.

Qi Yu looked at the screen with great interest, and couldn't help thinking in his heart: "If you look at it this way, it looks more like a TV, and I am a person on the TV shopping channel."

The man on the stage waited for a while, then signaled to the staff next to him and began to speak: "Dear guests, welcome to the auction venue of the Central Weapon Store. I am the auctioneer this time. Next, I will lead everyone to conduct this auction. Once again, I wish you all a great return with a full load."

As soon as the man finished speaking, the lights on the stage changed colors, and the sound of musical instruments came from a place that could not be seen on the screen, which directly set off the atmosphere of the auction.

Qi Yu was slightly surprised. It made sense that they could run the largest weapons store in the city. The atmosphere group did a good job.

As the music slowed down, the man spoke again: "Now, we will start exchanging chips. Please exchange your coins for chips. Remember, this is the only chance to exchange chips in this auction. If you want to exchange chips later, it will be against the rules."

As soon as he finished speaking, the staff member behind Qi Yu took out a tray, walked in front of Qi Yu and handed it to Qi Yu.
