A few horse carriages had already left the small plaza outside Carefree Restaurant, but there were still many people in the queue. Carefree Restaurant's number plate had just reached number 16.
Looking at those horse carriages, Xia Pingan saw fields of ripe wheat waiting to be harvested.
No, it wasn't waiting to be harvested, but these ripe wheat would automatically run into someone else's bowl.
Another person left Carefree Restaurant. That high-spirited servant in green walked out of the restaurant and passed through the courtyard's waterside pavilion, wanting to call for someone else.
Xia Pingan waited at the door. As soon as the green-clothed manservant walked out, Xia Pingan took a step forward and stood in front of the green-clothed manservant.
At this moment, a few dissatisfied gazes came from the horse carriages behind, all focused on Xia Pingan's back. However, the people in the horse carriages didn't come down. Those who came here to seek Master Shuiyue's interpretation of dreams were all respectable people and wouldn't make a racket in public. More importantly, everyone knew that Carefree Restaurant followed the rules. Those without a number plate couldn't enter.
The gazes from the horse carriages were waiting for Xia Pingan to be deflated.
"This little brother, may I ask if Master Shuiyue is here?" Xia Pingan asked with a radiant smile. As he spoke, he extended his hand and handed a gold coin to that high-spirited servant in green.
The servant in green originally wanted to scold him, but his mood improved when he felt the weight of the gold coin in his hand. Even in this place, it wasn't easy to meet such a generous guest who could give him a gold coin on their first meeting. Therefore, the servant in green spoke much more politely. "This is Master Shuiyue's Carefree Restaurant. If this young master wants a number plate, please come back tomorrow afternoon. Master Shuiyue only receives customers with a number plate!"
"Oh, I see. This is my first time in the capital. I heard that Master Shuiyue is very good at interpreting dreams and actually has a secret technique that can allow you to see other people's dreams. I wanted to ask Master Shuiyue for guidance. I wonder where that secret technique came from and whether I can learn it?"
So he was a country bumpkin?
That servant in green took another look at Xia Pingan, raised the corner of his mouth and said proudly, "Master Shuiyue's secret technique is the Dream Manipulation Technique. To master this secret technique, you have to be a summoner and at the same time, be able to successfully integrate a dream master's realm pearl. That realm pearl isn't cheap and easily costs a few thousand gold coins. Master Shuiyue was able to become a dream master after integrating a dream master's realm pearl!"
So it was the ability provided by the dream master's realm pearl. Xia Pingan immediately understood.............
..... but you can't become a dream master...... it's not that........................ but............................
. ".............................".... "..".. "..".. "..".
The servant in green kept the gold coins in his pocket and shouted at the horse carriages in the queue, "Those who have obtained number 17, please head to Carefree Restaurant..."..
…
Xia Pingan left the place.
To Xia Pingan, since it was the realm pearl that provided the ability, it was easy for him. He just needed to obtain a realm pearl.
Originally, Xia Pingan wanted to buy a few more realm pearls in the night market. However, after hearing the servant in green say that the price of the dream master's realm pearl was very exaggerated and could easily cost a few thousand gold coins, Xia Pingan decided not to spend any more money. He decided to get the dream master's realm pearl first.
At this moment, Xia Pingan had already made up his mind to become a dream master in Shang Jing City.
Damn it, it was too easy to earn money as a dream master. Furthermore, there was no danger. If he wanted to do this, he would definitely be better than that Master Shuiyue.
The night market was still bustling with noise and excitement.
Xia Pingan's mind was filled with dream master's realm pearls and he had no time to stroll around.
Seeing that there was a shop by the side of the road that sold Realm Pearls, the scale of the shop looked quite big, Xia Pingan directly went in.
"Boss, do you have dream master's realm pearls here?" Xia Pingan asked the moment he entered the shop.
The fat boss of the shop looked at Xia Pingan and laughed. He said politely, "Sir, you are here to pick up some scraps in my shop. The price of the dream master's realm pearl is too expensive. Those who obtain it would usually send it to the auction house. The price at the auction house would be higher. Sir, you can go to the auction house and ask around."
"Could it be that there are many people who want to buy dream master's realm pearls?"
"Of course. Those dream master's realm pearls are not dangerous. Even though the success rate of fusion is not high, after fusion, it can increase one's god power and one can master the secret technique of the dream development technique. In the future, one will have an additional ability to earn a living. Naturally, the price will rise!"
"Those? There are more than one type of dream master's realm pearls? "Xia Pingan was stunned. He rubbed his face. He thought that there was only one type of dream master's realm pearls.
"Yes, there are a few types of dream master's realm pearls. As long as one can master those realm pearls, one can master the dream development technique …"
"Thank you for telling me!"
"You're welcome. The realm pearls sold in my shop are not much more expensive than those sold outside. They are basically the same price. Many of them are sold on behalf of friends. There are many types of realm pearls. If you need them in the future, you can come and take care of my shop's business!"
Seeing that the boss was rather polite and knew how to conduct himself, Xia Pingan looked up at the shop's signboard as he walked out of the shop. He remembered the name of the shop — Forest of Treasures.
After confirming that the dream master's realm pearls could only be found in auction houses, Xia Pingan headed straight for the auction house.
On the streets of the Tianyuan Bridge Night Market, there were a few auction houses of various sizes. Xia Pingan first went to two smaller auction houses to inquire. The answers he received were the same. These two auction houses did not have any dream master's realm pearls. After which, Xia Pingan headed straight for the biggest auction house in the Tianyuan Bridge Night Market, the King Roc Auction House.
The Roc King Auction House was located in the most prosperous area of the core area of Tianyuan Bridge Night Market. There was a huge square outside the auction house, which was dozens of times larger than the square outside Carefree Building. There was even a fountain in the square. Outside the auction house, there was a huge golden roc standing with its wings spread out, which was very eye-catching. The entrance of the auction house was at the feet of the golden roc. Behind the entrance was a huge building, which looked like a huge opera house from the outside.
The moment Xia Pingan entered the auction house, someone came up to him and asked if he needed any services. After some communication, Xia Pingan finally found out that the Golden Roc Auction House had a dream master's realm pearl. Furthermore, the dream master's realm pearl would be auctioned off in a small scale auction three days later.
The entry ticket for the auction three days later was 5 gold coins.
Xia Pingan spent 5 gold coins and obtained an entry ticket for the auction three days later. After which, he left the King Roc Auction House.
When Xia Pingan came out of the King Roc Auction House, it was already late at night. Some of the stalls in the Tianyuan Bridge Night Market had started to close.
After leaving the night market, Xia Pingan hailed a rental carriage outside the night market and returned to his small courtyard at the foot of Ping Mountain.
Tonight's trip to the night market was fruitful. Apart from buying a pile of realm pearls, he had also confirmed how to make money in Shang Jing City. Xia Pingan was in a good mood.
There were still three days before the auction. During these three days, Xia Pingan planned to complete the integration of the realm pearls that he had obtained. After which, he would find some time to visit the Shang Dynasty's library in Shang Jing City to see if he could find some information about the Dark Tower.
There were not many people on the road at night. The gas lamps on the road were emitting faint light in the darkness, attracting a large number of mosquitoes to fly around the gas lamps. Occasionally, a carriage would run across the road and the crisp sound of horse hooves would reverberate on the road.
After sitting in the carriage for less than half of the journey, Xia Pingan suddenly saw the image of the Tang Family's elder in his sea of consciousness.
The Tang Family's elder in the room was originally resting on the bed. However, all of a sudden, the Tang Family's elder opened his eyes and got up from the bed. He swiftly changed into a black robe and put on that ox-head mask. In the blink of an eye, the Tang Family's elder transformed into the person who was chasing after Xia Pingan.
Seeing that the Tang Family's elder had finally "transformed", Xia Pingan, who was in the carriage, became spirited. This Tang Family's elder was finally going to reveal his fox tail.
After doing all this silently, the Tang Family's elder came to the study room in the bedroom. After pressing a few buttons on a cabinet in the study room, the cabinet slid open, revealing a pitch-black entrance that led underground.
The Tang Family's elder entered the underground entrance and restored the study room to its original state. Then, he walked along the underground entrance.
After walking for more than 100 meters, an underground river appeared in front of the Tang Family's elder.
A mass of black fog wrapped around the Tang Family's elder. He immediately jumped into the underground river and rapidly swam towards a certain place.
From the beginning to the end, the Boy of Blessings was inseparable from the Tang Family's elder.
The Tang Family's elder was standing while the Boy of Blessings was sitting on his head. The Tang Family's elder turned into a mass of black fog and jumped into the underground river. The Boy of Blessings was riding on the Tang Family's elder's neck while giggling and swinging his chubby little feet. However, the Tang Family's elder didn't notice it at all.
After the Tang Family's elder swam along the underground river for more than 20 kilometers, the water of the underground river suddenly surged and poured into a large river from an underground water hole.
That large river was Qinan River.
The Tang Family's elder, who was wrapped in black fog, looked like a weird big fish swimming in the river.
Qinan River was wide and deep. At the bottom of the river, one could see the huge bottoms of big ships slowly moving on the water surface from time to time.
After swimming for half an hour, the Tang Family's elder swam to the bottom of a big ship. Closely sticking to the big ship, he lightly knocked on the bottom of the ship for a few times.
After a few seconds, an isolation cabin at the bottom of the big ship was opened. The Tang Family's elder, who was in the form of black fog, immediately poured into the isolation cabin.
Strangely enough, the hatch at the bottom of the boat could be opened and people could enter, but not a drop of water could enter the boat.
Standing in front of the Tang Family's elder was a person in a black robe and a ghost mask. That person was holding a shining blue bead. He pressed a switch of the isolation cabin with one hand, causing the cabin door to slowly close.
"This water-repelling bead is not bad. With this bead, we can explore the Demonic Dragon Palace at the bottom of the sea …" the Tang Family's elder said in a hoarse voice, "But it's too troublesome to meet here …"
"This is Shangjing City, right under the eyes of the Judgement Army. We have to be careful!" the person holding the bead said. Judging from his voice, he was about 40-50 years old.
"Have they arrived?"
"Yes, they've arrived!"
