Chapter 129: Trade Fair
There are a total of four courtyards in the guest rooms here, which are somewhat similar to the courtyard houses in old Beijing, Zhou Hong walked in with Lin Feng, and the two of them each chose a room.
After entering the room, Lin Feng closed the door, and those who could get here were naturally cultivators, and they were all cultivators above the eighth level of Qi cultivation, so Lin Feng threw out the formation flag as soon as he entered the door, and not only Zhou Hong was placed here, but also all the others.
After doing all this, Lin Feng was still cultivating cross-legged, and he didn't want to delay for a moment, until the next morning, Lin Feng withdrew from his cultivation.
"Knock Knock"
There was a knock on the door from Lin Feng's room, Lin Feng opened the door and said hello to his seniors and walked out with him, because today was the day of the trade fair.
The two of them came to an open-air attic, the area here is not large, and it can accommodate about two or three hundred people, Lin Feng looked at the people on the field curiously, and at a glance, there were only about a hundred people, so it didn't seem crowded.
Lin Feng didn't want to use his Divine Sense, but as soon as he entered, he felt several Divine Senses sweep over him.
"Don't worry, these people have no malicious intent, and it is not taboo to probe by the divine sense here. Next to Zhou Hong explained,
Lin Feng nodded slightly, and then spread out his divine sense, and found that most of the people here were Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer cultivators, only a dozen people were in the early stage of Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer, and one person had reached the middle stage of Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer.
Just as Lin Feng was looking, a middle-aged man walked over.
"Brother Zhou, you're here too. ”
"It turned out to be Brother Song, it's been good lately!" Zhou Hong recognized it after looking at it.
"Well, I haven't seen you for a few years, and I can't imagine that my cultivation has broken through to the late stage of the eighth layer, so I'm glad to congratulate you!" said the middle-aged man surnamed Song.
"You're not bad, I see that your cultivation is also at the peak of the middle of the eighth layer, and it is estimated that it won't be long before you break through. ”
"Yes, that's why I'm in a hurry to buy some pills to improve my mana, I don't know what this trade fair will have. ”
"As far as I know, there is indeed an elixir that breaks through cultivation at this fair, as for the others, I don't know, and the pills that usually enhance cultivation are definitely indispensable, it depends on whether you have enough spirit stones. ”
"That's natural, as long as there is an elixir, there is no problem with the spirit stone!" said the middle-aged man surnamed Song arrogantly. After a while, a lot of people came, and a few of them said hello to Zhou Hong, and Lin Feng had been standing by and listening to their chat.
"It seems that this Zhou Hong knows a lot of people, so I have to be more careful. Lin Feng thought in his heart.
"Just these rabble, as soon as you kid shoots, who can beat it. Ling Kongzi smiled.
"Seniors, don't hurt me, the so-called two fists are hard to beat with four hands, and there are many heroes who can't stand it. Lin Feng glanced at him, and instead of talking to those people, he could only chat with Lin Feng secretly.
After an hour like this, an old man walked out of the high platform, and suddenly the originally noisy people immediately became quiet, which surprised Lin Feng.
"This is the host of the trade fair, Xie Lao, cultivating to the peak of the ninth layer of qi training!" Zhou Hong said in a low voice, Lin Feng looked at the high platform a few more times when he heard this, there were almost no ten layers of qi cultivation in these rural places, so the peak of the nine layers was already very high.
The old man Xie on the high platform coughed lightly, "Everyone, you are welcome to participate in this trade fair, I think everyone knows me, so I won't be too wordy, but I still have to talk about the rules of the trade fair!"
After a pause, the old man continued, "This trade fair is still the same as before, the auction will be held by the party first, and after the auction is over, there will be a second-step exchange meeting, that is, you will trade by yourself, and whoever wants to sell something can take it up and let others exchange it for what they need." ”
"Oh, and the fair. "It's the first time Lin Feng has heard of it.
"This trade fair is sometimes more lively than an auction, and no one knows what will suddenly come up with one, and someone will rush to ask for it immediately. Zhou Hong said with a smile.
"So that's the case, it's interesting, no wonder it's called a trade fair. Lin Feng nodded, and on the stage, Old Xie looked down and saw everyone's expectant eyes, so he nodded with satisfaction.
"Then next, the old decay will preside over the auction for all Taoist friends, the rules of the auction are very simple, the one with the highest price wins, and no one is allowed to destroy it in the middle, otherwise it will be thrown out of the auction, and you will not be allowed to participate in it for life, or you will be killed on the spot!"
When everyone heard Xie Lao's threatening words, they didn't say much.
Old Xie stood on the stage and said loudly, "Everyone, the first thing we auctioned is a bottle of elixir, the name of the Essence Pill, which can be taken by anyone who cultivates to the eighth level of Qi refining, which is of great benefit to improving cultivation. ”
As soon as the old man surnamed Xie finished speaking, the following immediately became lively, after all, most of the people here are eighth-level cultivators, and as casual cultivators, what they lack most is the pill, even if it is just an ordinary pill, it can be auctioned off here for a good price.
But the strange thing is that Xie Lao was not in a hurry to announce the price, but smiled slightly, and didn't say much, allowing the audience to talk about it.
Lin Feng looked around, and the atmosphere was suddenly mobilized during this time, and he couldn't help but admire this Xie Lao's methods.
At this time, Zhou Hong was also staring at the elixir in Xie Lao's hand, spitting, and waiting for Xie Lao to announce the price.
"Old Xie, how much does this pill cost!" Finally, a middle-aged man couldn't help shouting, and everyone in the audience immediately quieted down when they heard this.
Xie Lao stood on the high platform, seeing that everyone was really interested, knowing that the expected effect had been achieved, his face was still full of smiles after a pause.
"This Essence Cultivation Pill belongs to a high-grade elixir, and the bid is five hundred spirit stones, and the price increase must not be less than ten yuan each time!"
Hearing the price that Xie Lao said, half of the people were immediately deflated, not that they couldn't take out the five hundred spirit stones, but when they cultivated to the eighth level of qi training, they naturally had seven or eight hundred, or even one thousand spirit stones, but they couldn't take them all out.
"I'll give you five hundred and ten lower grade spirit stones!" a thick voice sounded.
"I'm out of five hundred and two!"
"Five hundred and three!"
"Five hundred and five!"
"Five hundred and seven!"
"Six hundred!" The man who was the first to bid shouted again, and Lin Feng couldn't help but look over, only to see that he was stout, like an iron bucket, and he didn't look very easy to mess with.
The field stopped with the man's shouting, although six hundred spirit stones can still be obtained for people who have cultivated to more than eight layers, but the first item that has only been auctioned now, if all the spirit stones are spent, it will be a loss if they encounter good things in the future.
"Is there no one bidding? This is a high-grade elixir, and there will be no such shop after this village!" Xie Lao saw that he stopped shouting below, and couldn't help but say, he was naturally not in a hurry to make a decision.
"I'll come out of six hundred and one!" Just as Elder Xie was about to announce that the pill belonged to the man, suddenly a voice sounded, and everyone looked over to the place where the voice came from, only to see an old man with a rickety form and a sallow face.
"Six hundred and two!" the man before snorted coldly and bid again.
"Six hundred and three, the old man is old, he doesn't want other good things in the back, he just wants a bottle of pills to improve his cultivation, why do young people have to fight with me, an old man?"
"Hmph, I'll give you six hundred and five, if you want it, old guy, just take it!" said the middle-aged man with a gloomy face.
"Then thank you to this Taoist friend for forbearing the pain and cutting his love, and he is old and decaying. The old man smiled slightly.
"You!" The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and finally stopped bidding, and finally this bottle of pill was returned to the rickety old man at the price of six hundred and six lower-grade spirit stones.
According to the price in the sect, the eighth-layer pills of Qi cultivation are generally four hundred to six hundred, but the pills are scarce here, and six hundred and six is considered normal.
"Okay, then the second item we want to auction is a magic weapon. As he spoke, Xie Lao stretched out his hand and flipped it over, and a shield appeared in his hand, turning into a big man in an instant.
"This shield is indestructible, it is made of the refined dark iron refined by master craftsmen from the dark iron, and it has been refined for three days and three nights, even if it is cultivated to a layer higher than itself, it may not be able to break it, the starting price is three hundred and fifty spirit stones, and the price increase shall not be less than ten spirit stones each time. ”
"Three hundred and six!"
"Three hundred and seven!"
"Three hundred and eight!"
"I'll be out of four hundred!" said a big man with a big shape, looking at his size, he was afraid that he had grown into a round ball, and the fat on his body squeezed the person next to him to move, but he didn't dare to say much, because this fat man had the strength of the ninth layer of Qi training.
"Four hundred and one. A man said coldly, a scar on his face near his nose, which looked a little crooked.
"Four hundred and two. Another man said.
"Four hundred and five!" The fat man who practiced the ninth layer of qi added three hundred in one go.
"Four hundred and six. The scar man was still expressionless, and his words were extremely cold.
"Five hundred. The fat man said.
"Five hundred and five!" said the scar man.
"You!" the fat man snorted coldly, he didn't expect that he had added fifty, and the scar man had also added fifty.
When the other bidders on the field saw this posture, they naturally didn't dare to speak out, but they had some sympathy for the scar man, because he only had the cultivation of the eighth layer of Qi cultivation.
"There's nothing else to bid. Xie Lao continued to ask, but everyone looked at the fat man, and then at the scar, knowing that these two were not easy to mess with, and they didn't even bid.
"Okay, then the old man announced that the auction for this magic weapon was successful at the price of five hundred and five!" After all, Old Xie was old-fashioned, although no one bid again, his face only flashed a little unpleasant, and he returned to normal.
The second lot ended, and soon the third one was taken out, it turned out to be another bottle of elixir, Lin Feng just glanced at it and ignored it, those things were too ordinary, maybe they needed to be fought for in this kind of place, but back to Luoxia Sect, grab a lot of these things.
This sitting was a few hours, and the auction items were one after another, but Lin Feng seemed to be a little drowsy, he was wondering if he had come by mistake, and Zhou Hong, who had a ghost in his heart, to participate in a boring auction, this is not stupid.
