Chapter 111 Auction
There is a hidden door ten meters from the intersection of Yuncheng. After entering the door, turn left and pass a dark hole about five steps away. At the end of the dark hole is a small door. Enter the small door and walk 15 steps away. There is a wall so convenient, but it is a dead end. This wall is no different from ordinary walls, but one point shorter than others. There is a bronze mirror hanging on the wall, which can reflect the approaching people from afar, which is very transparent and bright.
A man and a woman came slowly in the distance, and there was no idea between their looks, but they were very familiar with this place. The two went straight to the corner and kept going down and passed through. If ordinary people see it, they will definitely be scared.
After a while, another person entered it, which seemed to be more cautious, but there was left and right looking forward to it. Seeing that no one followed him, he passed through the wall.
There are some people passing through this corner one after another. Although it is not lively, it will not be deserted.
If it is normal, if so many people go in and out of such a quiet place, it will naturally make people pay attention to it. But obviously, this place has not raised doubts among the residents living nearby so far.
This is an auction house where practitioners are located in Yuncheng, and naturally they are all monks in the world of cultivation.
This cloud city is not a city of cultivation, so there are many mortals living in it. There is an unwritten rule in the world of cultivation, that is, as a true practice, you can't bully the weak and kill ordinary mortals. If you violate it, you will be severely punished, and there may be a disaster.
Therefore, practitioners are very shy of these ordinary mortals, do not take the initiative to contact them, and do not reveal them in front of ordinary people. Generally, only those shallow monks who have learned a little furry - those who are not really practitioners will deceive ordinary people in this way.
By the way, the inside and outside of the auction house behind the wall just now is a completely different world. After stepping into the wall, a huge circular building appeared in front of you, but it is no different from the arena. In the middle is a round table with a case coffee table on it, and there is an entrance and exit on both sides of the table, which is obviously a transportation channel for the transportation of auction items.
The low-level place around this table is a circle of seats and coffee tables, and then there is a separate private room, which is prepared for those seniors with advanced cultivation or rich children who can afford spiritual stones. Each room is several feet apart, but it is not closely connected. At first, it is estimated that there are hundreds of rooms distributed among them, but they are floating in the air.
Another feature of these private rooms is that all private rooms are banned by a special array. People outside can't go into the private room to understand the situation, while people in the private rooms can see the auction in the auction house, which is probably to protect the privacy rights of VIPs. Another feature of this private room is that it can be transmitted directly from the portal in the private room for a short distance, so as to avoid customers being chased when their treasures are photographed.
This auction house is regarded as the most humane, so there are not a few people who come here to participate in the auction. Although I just saw that there are not many people entering the wall, in fact, it is just the entrance of this auction house located in a city in Yuncheng. There are similar entrances in different cities in Xizhi, even Zhou Border countries can also enter the auction house directly through the entrance.
At this time, a middle-aged man in Confucian clothes in the middle of the auction house was slowly introducing a magic weapon held by a beautiful woman Xiu's hand. His words and deeds were extremely sophisticated, but he had no meaning in front of many highly cultivated monks.
"This mother lock is made of thousand-year-old black iron, and it is indestructible. Even the monks who achieved great success in the later stage of the foundation can't forcibly untie it. As long as the mother lock is in hand, the person who locks the quilt will obey their orders. Except for obey the orders, everything else is the same as before, and It doesn't affect. Therefore, this lock can be said to be a rare boutique in the magic weapon of control. It belongs to the second-order upper category, with a reserve price of 100 spiritual stones.
After saying that, the middle-aged man in Confucian clothes waved the fan in his hand, but stopped and was not in a hurry to announce the auction. Instead, he let a group of noisy guests discuss it, obviously in order to enhance the atmosphere and achieve a good auction effect.
"Fifth brother, this lock is good. If you buy your sister-in-law, you won't dare to come back with Lao Qi behind your back. I think you can consider it."
A long, thin but somewhat shrewd man said to the slightly fat man sitting upright. Both of them wore a mask on their faces, but it was distributed by the auction house to protect the privacy of the guests.
This thin and shrewd man is obviously the follower of the man he is called the fifth brother, but he likes to chew his tongue and make trouble.
"How many spiritual stones do we bring?"
The fifth brother asked each other, obviously he was also moved and trusted this thin man very much.
There are still five hundred and fifty spiritual stones. I don't think it's difficult to take this treasure.
The two began to plan. On the other side, a man and woman in black stood on the position, but they had never sat down. At this time, the two also spread the voice, but they were also very interested in the mother lock.
In a box suspended in the air, a man and a woman sat in it. The man was about 24 or 25 years old, dressed in a light blue gown and was handsome. The woman was dressed in black and wore a black hat on her face. From the outside, the figure is extremely beautiful. In addition, there is an apple-like object jumping around on the ground at this time, which seems to be extremely active.
"Cheng Daoyou, your trick of shrinking bones is good, and you can actually change your body like ordinary people."
The man held the special supply of spiritual tea in the box and said to the woman with a smile.
"Brother Mu laughed. How can Xiaoshu be compared with Brother Mu's skills? The body of this rock demon is easy to change, but I just made a slight adjustment. But even so, it can't be changed in essence.
The woman sighed and took off the hat covering her head, but showed an extremely immeable face, stiff and expressionless, red rock-like, red eyes, square face, and no hair on the top of her head, but it was bare, and it was difficult to get together with the delicate voice just now.
The two escaped from the belly of Sangong Mountain * After several months of trekking to Mu Xiangdong and Cheng Yao in Xichi, they entered the auction house in order to take action. After all, they brought so many things, but it was very inconvenient to act.
In addition, there are not many spiritual stones on the two, so they want to exchange some of the materials collected before for future use. After all, Mu Xiangdong is now a monk of the Jiedan period, and the cost will be relatively much larger in the future.
"Cheng Taoist friends don't have to sigh. As soon as I go back to the sect, I will help Taoist friends find the cold beast inner elixir. If the Taoist friends don't dislike me, I can also guarantee that the Taoist friends can enter Wanjianmen to practice at ease, so that when the Taoist friends practice until the Yuanying period, they can transform into their human form.
Seeing that the other party's look was wrong, Mu Xiangdong said seriously and was very sure.
"The little sister thanked Brother Mu here first. The little sister was a monk in the Jiedan period before, and this rock demon body is also about to evolve. If you can find the cold beast's inner elixir, as long as you merge, you can restore the initial cultivation of the elixir."
Cheng Yao said her situation to Mu Xiangdong that these Mu Xiangdong had known before, but this woman always had to mention it again and again, so it was not surprising that Mu Xiangdong was surprised.
"Ha ha, it would be nice if Taoist friends could think so. After we return to the sect, I can find some more assistance. At that time, it should be easy to kill the cold beast. It should not be a problem for Taoist friends to re-establish elixir.
Mu Xiangdong took a sip of spiritual tea and said.
"It's better that the little sister thanked Brother Mu with tea instead of wine."
Cheng Yao raised the teacup next to her and looked to Mu Xiangdong.
"Okay, let's see what's going on the court."
Mu Xiangdong took another symbolic sip, and then the middle-aged man standing in the middle of the field began to speak again.
"Dear distinguished guests, we will start auctioning this mother lock now. The starting price of this treasure is 100 spiritual stones, and each price increase shall not be less than ten spiritual stones. Now we will start auctioning."
A middle-aged man in Confucian clothes has a powerful voice, but it is the effect of taking a certain elixir for a long time.
"One hundred and ten spiritual stones."
The thin man who just encouraged others to bid for the mother lock quickly raised the first quotation. The scene became quiet for a moment, but someone didn't follow for a long time, but it was a quiet phenomenon common in auctions.
"150 spiritual stones."
A handsome young man stood up and raised the price directly, obviously to suppress the scene.
"Three hundred spiritual stones."
I didn't expect that this time the man dressed up did not achieve his goal, and the man in black who had been standing in front of the position directly raised the price to three times the reserve price.
The scene was quiet again, and then there was a noisy discussion sound. Compared with the low noisy scene, the monks sitting in the air box did not respond at all, and the mother lock seemed to be unattractive to them at all.
"Three hundred spiritual stones once, three hundred spiritual stones twice..."
A middle-aged man in Confucian clothing began to report the number. Obviously, the auction price has not met expectations, but the scene stagnated due to too many price increases, but based on the rules, he needs to start counting down.
"Is there anyone who wants to raise the price? This is a rare treasure. This is the only one that can't be found anywhere else."
The middle-aged man in Confucian clothes slowly pretended to be nervous, and did not forget to encouraged everyone to continue to quote during this period. The higher the auction price, they can naturally charge more transaction commission fees as auction houses.
"Three hundred spiritual stones three times."
The middle-aged man in Confucian clothes turned his eyes and was obviously observing the reaction of the individual sitting below. As soon as someone increases the price, he will find out immediately.
"Three hundred and ten spiritual stones."
The thin man picked up at the beliment of the man he called the fifth brother. At this time, both of them were sweating and afraid that they would not be able to compete for this treasure. They were nervous and had someone to raise the price.
But obviously their hopes failed, and the man in black was eager to pursue this treasure, which was obviously inevitable. All of a sudden, the man quoted the price of 500 spiritual stones.
