Chapter Eighty-Five: Arriving at Jicheng

"Godfather, wake up, it's time to get there!"

Xia Ping, who was asleep, was gradually woken up by Xue Lin's voice. Slowly opening his eyes, Xia Ping seemed very calm. This is not to say that Xia Ping didn't have the gas to get up, but Xue Lin's behavior was ordered in advance before he went to bed.

Originally, a cultivator like him who had reached the late stage of foundation building, even if he didn't fit his eyes for a few days and nights, it didn't matter. But his previous battle with the purple jade evil crystal possessed by Li Qian was too expensive, and he had to sleep to replenish his consumed spiritual and spiritual power.

Of course, the most important thing is that Xia Ping used up all the top-grade spirit stones on his body in order to break through, otherwise he would not have chosen this inefficient way of resting.

Although there was not a single spirit stone on his body at the moment, Xia Ping still came to Jicheng to participate in this auction as promised. This is the confidence of the owner of a cave sky, and he has already instructed Qin Keqing in advance to produce spirit stones regardless of consumption in these two days.

I believe that when the auction starts, I still have enough high-grade spirit stones to squander.

"It's really interesting that such a large-scale auction was not held in the capital, but was chosen in the lesser-known Jicheng. ”

Xia Ping, who stepped off the plane, couldn't help but sigh.

"It's no wonder, after all, those of us cultivators and awakened people are now a group that is not easy to control. And the capital is too important for the whole of Huaguo, and there is no room for a little loss. ”

"Therefore, a restless factor like ours, which is destructive and difficult to restrain well, naturally cannot be placed in the capital. However, it was impossible for the above to let this kind of large-scale auction in the cultivation realm go unchecked, so it was moved to Jicheng, the closest to the capital. ”

Although Xue Lin's cultivation was not as good as Xia Ping's, his time in the cultivation realm was much longer than Xia Ping's. Therefore, for this kind of common sense in the cultivation realm, Xia Ping instead had to consult Xue Lin.

It was also fortunate that Xue Lin was by his side, otherwise when Xia Ping communicated with other cultivators, if he didn't even understand this bit of common sense, it would be very easy to be despised. And the price of being despised is a steady stream of trouble, with Xia Ping's current strength, although he is not afraid of trouble, he is too lazy to cause trouble.

"I understand that just like a large steel plant, you can't pollute the local area, you can only let it pollute the outside world. As long as the environment of the capital is good, everything will be fine, who cares about the problems of other cities. ”

"Hehe, godfather, why do I hear that you are a little angry. ”

"Just sigh with emotion. Don't wronged your godfather, how can I say that I am also a person in the system. And my current net worth is all given by the state. How could I be unpatriotic. ”

"By the way, tell me about this auction. Before, the junior sister just mentioned it casually, and she didn't introduce it in too much detail. Now that we're about to participate, we can't be ignorant of it. ”

Xia Ping hurriedly diverted the topic.

After hearing Xia Ping's words, Xue Lin was more cautious, first looked at the surrounding crowd vigilantly, and then pulled Xia Ping to walk on the path where the crowd was relatively sparse, and then opened his mouth to explain.

"As my master said before, this auction is the largest auction in the north in recent years. There should be a lot of treasures in the auction, not just the treasures of the monks, but also a large part of the treasures of the secular world. ”

"What do you mean?"

In fact, the auction was divided into two parts. One part is a normal auction, a platform for everyone to bid on. The other part is the auction of our monks, and those who do not receive the invitation are not eligible to participate in the auction of the monks. ”

Listening to Xue Lin's words, Xia Ping nodded thoughtfully: "Is the most dangerous place the safest place?" ”

"Godfather, you guessed right, the venue of this auction was held in the largest auction house in the north, Sidley Auction House. ”

"However, the list of lots in the auction is only distributed to everyone when the auction starts, so we can only wait quietly for the auction to start. ”

"There are still two days to go, so we should live here in Jicheng during this time, right? ”

Xia Ping touched his chin and said.

"Yes. ”

Xue Lin nodded: "But the auction has prepared a hotel for us, as long as we have the invitation, we can directly stay in the best private room for free." Stay until the end of the auction. This can be regarded as a preferential treatment for us cultivators. ”

"What you mean is that ordinary people don't have this kind of invitation at all, and they don't enjoy this kind of treatment. ”

"That's nature. Xue Lin proudly straightened his chest and said, "Otherwise, how can we reflect the special nature of our cultivators." ”

"It seems that the person in charge of this organizer is quite good at being a person. ”

Xia Ping nodded silently and muttered.

Not long after, Xia Ping and Xue Lin had already taken a car to the hotel accommodation arranged by the organizer.

Looking at the hotel in front of him, a little surprise suddenly appeared in Xia Pingbogu's eyes.

Xia Ping was surprised, not because of the more than 100-story five-star hotel in front of him. For things at the same level as his company's canteen, Xia Ping didn't care at all.

What really cared about him was the group of security guards who were patrolling.

If Xia Ping's feelings are not wrong, the strength of this group of security guards should not be less than the foundation building period. Even the two middle-aged men who led the team had obviously reached the level of the late stage of foundation building.

Don't look at the fact that Xia Ping came into contact with some people in the foundation building period during this time, I thought that monks or supernatural people in the foundation building period were very common.

In fact, among the cultivators, the Qi refining period is still the most. And during the Jindan period, they are all bigwig-level figures who have lived for an unknown number of years.

At their level, ordinary foreign objects can no longer attract them. The only thing they really care about is Shouyuan, and the best way to improve Shouyuan is naturally to cultivate.

Therefore, in this period of refining qi, there are as many as dogs, and the Jindan period does not go out, and the foundation building period is a master who is active in the world.

The reason why Xia Ping was able to meet so many masters in the foundation building period can only be said that what kind of strength will contact what kind of circle. If Xia Ping was just an ordinary college student now, then he might not even be able to reach a monk in the Qi refining period.

And being able to put dozens of masters in the foundation building period as security guards at the door of the hotel is a kind of deterrent in itself.

"What are you doing? Lao Tzu has been living here for several months, why don't you let Lao Tzu stay in your hotel? Look down on people, don't you?"

At this moment, the noise not far away suddenly came into Xia Ping's ears, and he followed the reputation, but saw a drunken strong man pulling with the security guard with a rogue look.

"Do you know who I am? I'm a disciple of the Tianshan Sect. Don't think that you can stop me if you have a lot of people, believe it or not, I will call more than 100 people to hack you to death every minute. A group of little deflated three, Seventh Master, I can kill you with one finger. ”

This strong man seemed to be really drunk, completely forgetting that he was just a weak chicken in the middle stage of Qi training, and he was still able to show off his might in a group of foundation building periods. Even the threat of calling brother is used.

Xia Ping didn't know how many brothers the Tianshan faction had, but he glanced at the security guard who had a military temperament and shook his head helplessly.

When it comes to shouting brothers, I'm afraid no one can compare to these security guards.

That is, because they are from a military background and have strict discipline, otherwise, if they are any foundation building boss, if there is a mid-stage Qi training who does not know the height of the sky, he screams in front of him. He would have been slapped to death a long time ago.

"Sorry sir, this hotel has been booked in advance. You won't be allowed to enter without an invitation, so don't blame us for being rude if you spill like that. ”

It was one of the two people who were in the later stages of foundation building.

"Hehe, you're welcome? Do you think Lao Tzu is scared? Tell you, Lao Tzu is also a person with someone behind him!"

Just as the drunken man's voice fell, a terrifying Jin Dan momentum suddenly enveloped the audience.
