Although they had been locked up in the Musical House for many days, during these days, they had heard the name of Li Mu, the poetry and martial arts genius, from the mouths of the maids and leaders of the Musical House countless times.
And tonight, they also heard about the process of Hua Xiangrong's reversal to win the championship.
There was no doubt that the name Li Mu represented a kind of hope and beauty in the hearts of the girls.
Because Hua Xiangrong, who shared the same fate with them, changed her fate because she was favored by Li Mu.
When they were desperate and helpless, they also dreamed about whether there would be another Li Mu in their lives, who would save them from the devil's nest, the Musical House, like how he saved Hua Xiangrong.
But now, the real Li Mu was in front of them.
"Of course it's Young Master Li. Who else could it be?" The maid Xin 'er smiled, took off the big cat mask, and said proudly.
The girls couldn't help showing a trace of joy on their faces.
Being bought by Li Mu, the poetry and martial arts genius, should be a blessing in misfortune, right?
It was rumored that Li Mu had a very good reputation among the girls.
"Are you really Li Mu?" The eyes of the short-haired girl suddenly lit up. She stared at Li Mu and asked.
Li Mu nodded.
The short-haired girl asked again, "So, you bought us to save us?"
Li Mu felt that the girl seemed to be fishing for information.
Before Li Mu answered, she said, "Since you bought us to save us, we have now left the Musical House, so you can let us go."
Li Mu narrowed his eyes when he heard that.
This lass wasn't a fool, right?
"Okay, pay me 9,000 gold ingots, and I will let you go immediately." Li Mu sneered. He spent 9,000 gold ingots to auction the short-haired girl.
"Okay, it's just 9,000 gold ingots, I …" The short-haired girl suddenly looked gloomy and couldn't go on.
Because she suddenly remembered that she was no longer the superior daughter of the leader of the Flying Tiger Sect, nor was she the talented female martial artist who was doted on by many. Her internal qi cultivation had been destroyed, and her family had been ruined. She couldn't even take out nine thousand gold coins now, let alone nine thousand gold coins.
Li Mu stared at her with a faint smile.
"I … if you give me back my freedom, I'll pay you back nine thousand gold coins sooner or later. I, Lu Shengnan, am a man of my word." The short-haired girl clenched her teeth and said.
When Li Mu heard that, he shook his head and said, "You're really naive. Even if I don't care about the nine thousand pieces of gold, and I believe in your promise, will you really be able to survive if you leave? "You used to be a martial artist, but now, your Dantian has been destroyed, and your cultivation has been abolished. Once you get out of this pavilion, the people who sent you to the Musical House will catch you again. Your fate will be ten times more miserable than now. In the future, how can you pay me back the 9,000 gold ingots? Hmm? "
"I …" The short-haired girl, Lu Shengnan, was at a loss for words.
Li Mu added, "Ting 'er saved you out of the fire pit out of kindness. But you not only don't know how to be grateful, but also use words to bully me. Do you really think Ting' er and I are so free to throw money at you? Do you know that if it weren't for Ting 'er who sympathized with you and begged me to buy you because she didn't want you to fall into the devil's clutches, if it were someone else, I'm afraid you would have been stripped naked and raped by some man on the bed … You are not only stupid, but also stupid! "
In the end, Li Mu's voice and countenance were already fierce.
Lu Shengnan was dumbfounded by the scolding.
"Nonsense, I …" She retorted instinctively.
Li Mu directly interrupted her, and then, he harshly scolded, "You also asked me to let all of you go. Do you think you're saving them? But have you ever considered whether they have the slightest ability to protect themselves? Ah? They have lost their families and friends, and they have no one to rely on. Now, as long as they walk out of this room, they will become the playthings of others in less than half a day. At that time, what can you do for them? You never thought about this, not because you can't think of it, but because you don't even think about it. You just want to tie them up with you to increase the bargaining chips for your so-called freedom. In this way, it seems that you are not only stupid and stupid, but also bad. Now I wonder if Ting 'er saved the wrong person. But she shouldn't have saved you. "
Lu Shengnan was dumbfounded and couldn't say a word.
She was scolded without any room to refute.
Beads of cold sweat slid down her forehead.
Although she was scolded miserably, on second thought, what Li Mu said was indeed reasonable.
She looked at the other six beautiful girls.
Xu Wan 'er and the others subconsciously stepped back to keep a distance from her.
Shangguan Yuting and Xin 'er also looked at Lu Shengnan with dissatisfaction. They had never seen Li Mu scold someone so harshly. "This Lu Shengnan actually made Young Master Li so angry. She really doesn't know what's good for her. If I had known this, I wouldn't have saved her."
Outside, the auction was still going on.
Li Mu turned his head and said no more, focusing his attention on the auction process outside.
Shangguan Yuting very considerately stood beside Li Mu. She took the initiative to stretch out her slender hand and let Li Mu hold it, comforting Li Mu with her silent action.
Zheng Cunjian opened the door and came in with seven robes and seven pairs of shoes. He asked the seven girls in the room to put them on.
Xu Wan 'er and the other five girls stood obediently on the side, as if they were afraid that Li Mu would really abandon them. Lu Shengnan, on the other hand, silently put on the clothes and stood on the other side with her head down like a defeated hen. She dared not speak again, but seemed to be thinking about something.
While they were talking, the auction outside had gone on for another half an hour.
Although it was called the auction of female slaves, in fact, in order to attract customers and make the auction on a large scale, in this auction, in addition to the female slaves, there were also some items on auction, such as martial arts manuals, weapons, magic books, and even treasure maps. But none of them caught Li Mu's attention, so he didn't participate in the auction.
Then, there was another batch of female slaves. But this batch was some female bandits in Jianghu who were captured by the Supervisory Department. They killed people like flies, and their hands were stained with blood. So, neither Li Mu nor Shangguan Yuting bid again.
Another two hours passed.
Dozens of people were auctioned off one after another.
With Li Mu's support, Shangguan Yuting, who was overflowing with sympathy, spent about 100,000 gold ingots to buy ten more women.
From the introduction of the auction house, it could be seen that those women were all poor people with clean backgrounds. Because of various reasons of their families or fathers, they were framed and ended up in the Musical House, which was a devil's den. How pitiful they were.
As for Shangguan Yuting's overflowing sympathy, Li Mu did not feel disgusted or reprimanded her at all. Instead, he was very supportive of her.
In his view, that was exactly why Shangguan Yuting was kind and precious.
Li Mu appreciated this kind of sympathy even more than her unparalleled appearance.
Perhaps it was also because she could always maintain her kindness and sympathy despite living in the Musical House, which was a devil's land, and was not contaminated by the foul atmosphere and ugliness here. Therefore, she was a Taoist Figure of Light who could get close to the Natural Great Way.
Li Mu didn't want to be a Virgin Mary, but he didn't mind doing something that looked like a Virgin Mary to preserve the precious qualities of Shangguan Yuting.
As for what others thought of him, he didn't care at all.
At that time, on the ordinary VIP seats, many people already hated the mysterious man in Room No. 18 to the extreme, but they still dared not to say anything.
As for the big shots in the other top VIP rooms, they also occasionally bid, but they didn't form a direct competition with Li Mu. So, the auction seemed to be still harmonious.
During the process, Li Mu opened his Third Eye and secretly observed the situation of the surrounding experts.
As he guessed, as time went by, there were more and more experts lurking in the surrounding streets.
"Take them away first. You settle them down." Li Mu said to Zheng Cunjian.
Then, he turned to the short-haired girl, Lu Shengnan, and said, "I'll give you a chance. If you really want to leave, you can write a promissory note and leave now. Ting 'er and I won't force you to stay. If you choose to stay, there may be a chance that I can help you repair your destroyed Dantian. Not only will it restore your strength, but it may also help you go further."
"Really?" Lu Shengnan, who had been silent with her head down, suddenly looked up at Li Mu in disbelief.
Li Mu didn't say anything.
His silence was enough to explain everything.
Lu Shengnan immediately realized that the man standing in front of her was a martial arts legend. The title of poetry and martial arts immortal was not just for show. Perhaps he could really cure the internal injuries in her body and help her restore her strength so that she could have the capital to take revenge?
"Fine. As long as you can help me restore my strength, I'll promise you anything." Lu Shengnan seemed to have made up her mind.
Li Mu smiled, but there was a hint of sarcasm in his smile.
How could he not understand Lu Shengnan's meaning? However, she was overthinking. He had no interest in her body at all.
"Take them away." Li Mu waved his hand.
Zheng Cunjian led the girls out.
Before they left, Lu Shengnan seemed to finally come to her senses. She looked at Hua Xiangrong standing beside Li Mu, and then thought about herself. She felt ashamed and self-deprecating. Obviously, Li Mu, who had a fairy-like figure like Hua Xiangrong, was not interested in her at all. That made her, who had always prided herself on being a Heavenly Talent and was quite confident in her appearance, feel frustrated.
The room quieted down again.
Just then, a burst of cheers broke out outside.
On the main stage, a nearly naked female slave from the pasture was escorted onto the stage.
"A bikini."
Li Mu was surprised. The clothes the female slave from the pasture was wearing were a bit like a bikini, full of temptation. Obviously, compared with the Qin female slaves who were auctioned off before, the pasture female slaves were treated worse. They were almost stripped naked and had no dignity. But the pasture female's tall figure and long blond hair were more attractive than the Qin women.
The pasture female slave was finally auctioned off.
Li Mu knew the real highlight of the night was about to come.
