The reason why Xu Taiping was so surprised was not because of the gender of Young Master Cao, but the completely different aura on her body at this moment.
There is a big difference in the aura between a man and a woman. With Xu Taiping’s current soul power, it is very easy to sense.
But he had been with Young Master Cao for at least half an hour, and he didn’t notice anything about this, which means that either Young Master Cao’s cultivation is much higher than his, or there is a fairy treasure of extremely high grade on her body.
From either point of view, Young Master Cao is not an ordinary person.
“Young Master Cao, those stones were just my good luck. The next pawn sale can’t rely on luck alone. You’d better not follow me to buy.
Xu Taiping took back his gaze from looking at Young Master Cao.
At present, the most urgent thing for him is still to get the Kunlong Pagoda and how to deal with the interception and killing of the Qi family after getting the Kunlong Pagoda.
”Brother Taiping, Young Master Cao is my alias. My name is Chu Xiaoxiao, and you can also call me Xiaoxiao.”
The girl smiled at Xu Taiping.
”Well, Miss Xiaoxiao.”
Xu Taiping nodded.
His attention was now all on the pawnshop in front of him and Qi Yu and the others not far away. He really didn’t have the energy to pay attention to the curious little girl beside him.
However, upon hearing the girl’s words, Monk Chongde raised his eyebrows and then transmitted a voice to Xu Taiping beside him, saying,
”Heaven Protector, if this little monk remembers correctly, this girl named Chu Xiaoxiao should be the daughter of the current emperor’s third uncle.”
Upon hearing Monk Chongde’s words, Xu Taiping was also slightly surprised.
”What about her character?”
Xu Taiping transmitted a voice to Monk Chongde and asked.
What identity Chu Xiaoxiao had was not important to him. He only cared whether this Chu Xiaoxiao would become a variable in his current calamity.
“The character and conduct of Princess Xiaoxiao are considered good among all the princes and princesses. However, she has a strange hobby of collecting all kinds of messy antiques. At the worst time, the huge palace was filled with the junk items she bought from various places In addition, for a while she was addicted to gambling and went in and out of various casinos every day, but her gambling luck was extremely poor. It is said that when her gambling addiction was at its peak, she gambled away most of the palace, and finally, it was the emperor who intervened to help pay off the gambling debts.”
Monk Chongde explained to Xu Taiping with great interest.
He came to the capital city of Southern Chu under the order of the abbot of Prajna Temple. The first thing was to preach the Dharma, and the second was to collect intelligence on all parties in the capital city, so he was so clear.
After hearing this, Xu Taiping couldn’t help but turn his head and look at Chu Xiaoxiao.
He could hardly imagine that this beautiful and well-spoken little girl not only had the hobby of picking up garbage but was also a gambler who had almost gambled away the palace.
At this time, Chu Xiaoxiao happened to be peeping ing Xu Taiping with big blinking eyes, looking hesitated to speak, as if there was something she wanted to say to Xu Taiping.
“Brother Taiping…”
“Miss, why did you run here?”
Just as Chu Xiaoxiao summoned up the courage to speak, the maid Xiaoqing suddenly came to the side of the seats where the two were sitting.
“We have to go back to the mansion, miss!”
The maid Qing’er looked at Xu Taiping beside them, and then whispered into Chu Xiaoxiao’s ear.
“Qing’er, I have a hunch that as long as I follow this Taiping Gongzi, I will definitely be able to buy good things today!”
Chu Xiaoxiao said to Qing’er with some excitement in her tone.
“Miss, there are already enough useless things you bought in the mansion. If you continue to buy like this, the master will scold you again.”
Qing’er looked helpless.
“Qing’er, this time is different. My master said that I will meet a noble person this year. This Taiping Gongzi must be my noble person. Just now he made me earn three thousand gold essence coins at once!”
Chu Xiaoxiao had made up her mind.
Although the voices of the two were very low, how could they escape Xu Taiping’s ears?
Listening to these words that were very similar to those of a gambler, Xu Taiping finally understood why this Xiaoxiao girl was sticking to him.
“This Xiaoxiao Highness has a good eye this time.”
The Chongde Monk transmitted his voice to Xu Taiping with a sense of pride.
Xu Taiping, however, had no expression on his face. Only in his heart did he silently add this Chu Xiaoxiao to the variables of this tribulation.
“Taiping Gongzi, how about we join hands again when the treasure is bid?”
Chu Xiaoxiao finally summoned up the courage to propose to Xu Taiping.
“There’s no need to join hands this time. If you trust me, I can give you some advice when it comes to bidding, Miss Xiaoxiao.”
Xu Taiping glanced at Qi Yu not far away and then said to Chu Xiaoxiao.
In the scene deduced by his left eye, in order to compete for the Coiling Dragon Pagoda, he and Qi Yu kept raising the price against each other, and finally almost exhausted all the gold essence coins on him.
“I remember that besides the Trapped Dragon Pagoda, Qi Yu and the others also bought several treasures with high prices. There weren’t many people competing with them at that time, so it should not have reached the reserve price in their hearts.”
“The total number of gold essence coins they brought this time should be around sixty thousand. If we can consume as much of their gold essence coins as possible on the first few treasures, then when it comes to shooting the Trapped Dragon Pagoda, the less gold essence coins they can offer, and the less gold essence coins I will ultimately spend.”
Xu Taiping calculated in his heart.
Although he was determined to obtain the Trapped Dragon Pagoda, the gold essence coins were also very important to him. The more he could save, the better.
“Then I’ll have to trouble Young Master Taiping.”
Although Xu Taiping didn’t agree to join hands, which made Chu Xiaoxiao feel a little disappointed, she was still very happy to get the advice.
“The first item to be sold in this session of the Shiyi Zhai is the Heaven Rank Golden Body Talisman!”
Just then, the big shopkeeper in charge of selling in the Shiyi Zhai suddenly announced loudly to the crowd.
As he spoke, a shop assistant from the Shiyi Zhai walked up to the shopkeeper with a jade box in both hands.
The shopkeeper first opened the jade box.
“Boom!”
The fluctuations of the aura accumulated in the jade box spread out in an instant, setting off gusts of astral wind in the great hall.
