Chapter 73 Alabasta: The Targeted Auction
The so-called golden apple is nothing more than something that locals use golden paint to deceive outsiders.
Only those who are stubborn or are simply too over-the-top will believe it.
But Red Hai, a guy who has lived for nearly 30 years, also believed it...
But Honghai's money had long been scattered in the previous town, but now he is penniless and can't even afford a bottle of water.
"Lin Mo, lend me a thousand Baileys." The red hair immediately sent a signal to Lin Mo for help.
Lin Mo directly refused: "Don't borrow."
"Hey? This is a golden apple." Redhead was a little disappointed, but he still muttered unwillingly, "You can live for a thousand years with one bite..."
Lin Mo continued to walk forward speechlessly.
The red hair had no choice but to follow him.
The owner of the stall vendor selling gold apples looked at the two people leaving speechlessly: "Well, have the identities of these two people changed? Why do you think that child looks like an adult..."
When I was walking in the desert two days ago, there were often big guys hiding in the sand, and no fear of death would come out to attack them, so there was no need to worry about food.
Although Lin Mo had a lot of food in the system space, Honghai kept staring at him, and he could not take out the food directly in front of Honghai.
So, they ate the natural pure meat feast in the desert for two days.
Now that I have arrived in the town, I naturally have to have a good meal.
Lin Mo casually found a half-tavern-style restaurant.
Ordered a table of dishes and two bottles of good wine.
Redhead sat down opposite him without hesitation, folded his hands together and said with a smile, "Thank you for the hospitality, then I'll start."
Lin Mo ignored him and started eating on his own.
The red hair was not idle either, just like not eating for several days, squeezing the rice.
At this time, two timid men sitting at the next table gathered together and whispered.
"Are you sure it's tonight?"
"Yes, I heard that there must be tickets for this auction before I can enter. Hehe, I happened to get two."
"Hahaha, although you can't afford to buy something too expensive, it's pretty good to see what the so-called secret treasure of the sea looks like."
The two of them had a very small voice, completely covered up by the noise created by other people who were dining in the restaurant.
Despite this, Lin Mo and Hongfa still heard it clearly.
"Lin Mo, what they are talking about in the sea should mean the thing I think, right?" Redhead stuffed food in his mouth, and said vaguely while chewing, without caring about his image.
Lin Mo was silent and didn't say anything.
When the restaurant deliveryman brought the last large portion of fried noodles they ordered on their table, Lin Mo looked at the deliveryman and asked, "What's the name of this town?"
The deliveryman wondered: "This is Uba, don't you even know where you are?"
The deliveryman just finished speaking.
The food that the red hair had just eaten into his mouth squirted out: "Puff, hahaha, is it really Uba here?"
"Yes, yes." A cold sweat fell from the delivery man's forehead.
Without saying anything more, he continued to work hard.
The red hair almost laughed and turned over: "Ah haha, Lin Mo, don't you think this is too coincidental?"
Lin Mo continued to eat the dishes speechlessly.
That's right, it's indeed quite a coincidence, just like being arranged...
Could it be that there are progress tasks in this town that need him to complete?
If there is really, it is likely to be related to the underground auction.
Lin Mo was thinking.
Red hair suddenly whispered: "Since you've come, why not go to the underground auction to check it out."
Lin Mo raised his head and glanced at the red hair with an expectant look on his face.
Without thinking too much, he nodded and replied: "Okay."
Redhead was stunned for a moment, then laughed and continued to make a meal.
To enter the underground auction, you must first get the ticket.
Although with Lin Mo and Hongfa's ability, it is not difficult to break in.
If you do this, it is easy to cause chaos.
He will be the trouble then...
Instead of causing unnecessary trouble, it is better to follow the normal process to enter the auction and attract as little attention as possible.
So, when the two people at the next table were having supper and leaving.
Lin Mo took out a bag of Bailey and threw it to Hongfa, asking Hongfa to handle the admission tickets.
"Huh? Can't you go with me?" Red-haired reflexively caught Lin Mo's thrown wallet and said boredly, "It's so boring for me alone."
Lin Mo said calmly: "It's okay if you don't go, then you won't go to the auction."
"Hey? You can't do this. You obviously agreed to me just now..."
"How can I get in without admission tickets?"
"So you can just figure out a way to get the ticket with me?"
"I won't go."
"Why?"
"trouble."
Redhead: "…"
The red hair put the straw hat next to him on his head and said in no way, "Okay, but you can't sneak away when I don't know."
Lin Mo said speechlessly: "I understand."
The red-haired grinned and said, "Okay, then I'll go."
After speaking, Honghai immediately stood up from the dining table and followed the two of them just now.
As for Lin Mo, after paying the meal, he also left the restaurant and prepared to go around alone.
Lin Mo stopped before passing by a vendor selling snake wine.
He hasn't drunk snake wine yet.
Looking at several cobras soaked in a transparent wine jar, Lin Mo was considering whether to buy a cup to try it.
A woman with long grass-green wavy hair, golden pupils, tall figure and a fat man with thick orange-yellow coats and pirates on her teeth walked behind Lin Mo even in hot places like the desert.
I noticed the breath of people different from this town.
Lin Mo turned his head and glanced.
After only seeing the backs of the two people, he recognized their identities.
It is the snow girl Monet and the Zhuanzhuan Baffaro.
They were from the Don Gilleshode family and were subordinates of Doflamingo.
Doflamingo, nicknamed Tianyasha, was born in the Tianlong people. He is a guy who takes both black and white and uses all means to achieve his goal.
Judging from the current time point, Doflamingo should have just replaced the king of Dresrosa not long ago.
But his subordinates appeared in Alabastan.
Obviously, they came for the devil fruit that will be auctioned tonight.
It can actually make Doflamingo target.
It seems that the devil fruits in this auction are quite big.
"Little kid, you've been watching here for so long, are you going to buy snake wine?" At this time, the wine dealer's boss suddenly spoke, breaking Lin Mo's thoughts.
Lin Mo came to his senses and his eyes fell on the big wine jar in front of him again. After thinking about it, he asked, "How much?"
"Two Baileys a cup, twenty Baileys a bottle. This snake wine is a good thing, a big supplement. Do you want to buy some to come back for your adults?" the wine dealer asked with a smile.
Lin Mo took out two Baileys directly: "Go a cup first."
The wine dealer boss thought he was going to buy a bottle, but the smile on his face faded away, so he took out a small paper cup, spooned half a spoonful of snake wine from the big wine jar, poured it into the paper cup, and handed it to Lin Mo.
Lin Mo drank it directly in front of the wine dealer boss.
"Hey? This wine is too nourishing for a child like you, you can't drink it." Before the wine dealer's boss had time to stop it, Lin Mo had already finished drinking it.
The wine is a bit astringent and has a strong fishy smell. It is the most difficult wine he has ever drunk in the Pirate World.
"Look, I've said you can't drink it." The wine dealer knew that this kid must be unable to drink it when he saw Lin Mo's expression.
When Lin Mo was speechlessly preparing to leave, not far away, red hair came to him with two golden paper tickets and laughed.
After a moment of silence, Lin Mo turned to look at the wine dealer boss, took out twenty Baileys, and chuckled, "Give me a bottle."
