Chapter 6: Xiao Jiu and the Dragon
"The two of you will leave the magic weapon, and you can come and watch the auction tomorrow night. Of course, you can also take pictures of what you like. The woman took out two tickets and handed them to the two.
Outside the auction
"This auction is really rich, and this ticket is made of red gold. Chen Shuo was fiddling with the two admission tickets in his hand.
"I'll go and inquire about Qingyu's news tomorrow, Brother Chen, you can go out for a walk if you have nothing to do. Liu Zhiche said.
The next day, on the second floor of a wine shop
"Brother, inquire, have you ever heard of a woman named Zheng Qingyu. ”
"I've never heard of that name. ”
Liu Zhiche has been out since dawn in the morning and has been inquiring about noon. He simply found a place in the wine shop, ready to listen to whether there was any useful information that people were talking about, and take a break by the way.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have just received news that the next Sect Contest will be held in Shenjimen in a year's time. The owner of the liquor store walked upstairs and announced.
In fact, the reason why people come to sit in the wine shop from time to time is because these wine shop owners and city officials have some private intersections. So come here to know some information in advance and become their after-dinner conversation.
"And our Juqing City is the closest and largest city to the Divine Machine Gate, so when the time comes, we will welcome immortal cultivators from all over the Star Continent, and our city will be unprecedentedly grand at that time. ”
"Boss, how many will the next sect competitions?" Liu Zhiche remembered that Feng San was plotted against when he participated in the 35th competition, so he asked.
"The next one is the forty-fifth. After the boss finished speaking, he went up to the third floor and announced that he had gone.
"Brother, every few years?" Liu Zhiche turned his head to the person next to him and asked.
"Every ten years, you don't know anything. ”
"Hehe, I have a poor cultivation of immortal roots, so I haven't paid attention to these all the time. Liu Zhiche smiled awkwardly and hurriedly went downstairs to leave.
"Every ten years, isn't that a hundred years in the past. Liu Zhiche thought as he walked.
"But it's only been more than ten years since I last saw Uncle Feng. The timing is not right, but what Uncle Feng said seems to be true. ”
"Is time out of order?"
Liu Zhiche thought as he walked down the street, not noticing the carriage hurrying in front of him.
"Hey, boy, get out of the way. The groom had no time to stop and shout.
Seeing that Liu Zhiche was about to be hit, a blue-purple light suddenly shot from a distance, circled around him, and pulled him to the side of the road.
"Saved?" Liu Zhiche opened his eyes, and at this time he was being held by a male princess.
Seeing that he had come to his senses, the man slowly put him down, "Little brother, it's okay." ”
Only then did Liu Zhiche see the man's appearance, he was about twenty-five years old, with bright eyes and bright teeth, a face like a crown of jade, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, long hair behind him, wearing a blue dress, and carrying a backpack behind his back. Standing slightly taller than Liu Zhiche, his aura is magnificent.
"Hey, you don't have long eyes, dare to stop Miss Ben's car. Without waiting for Liu Zhiche to speak, the carriage stopped and a brutal woman came down from inside.
"This person provoked the second lady of the city lord, and he has suffered it now. The people on the side of the street whispered.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't notice. Liu Zhiche hurriedly apologized, he didn't want to cause trouble at this time.
"Do you think you're done with your apology? Cui Wen. ”
"Second Miss, forget it, the person behind him is not simple. A person stepped forward from behind, glanced at the person who rescued Liu Zhiche and said.
"Why, you can't beat him even a monk in the Condensation Realm?"
Cui Wen shook his head, "I sat in front of me just now and saw it clearly, judging by this person's speed, it should be a monk who stepped on the Skyclave Realm." I'm afraid that the cultivation is still above the city lord. ”
"You wait for me. The second lady of the city lord put down this sentence, turned around and got into the car and left.
"Thank you, brother, for the rescue just now. Liu Zhiche thanked the man at this time.
"It's just easy, but little brother should be careful next time. ”
"Well, it's really my fault for today's events. If you dare to ask your brother's name, you will definitely go to report it in the future. ”
"My name is Xiao Jiu, how old is I for you, just call me Brother Jiu. ”
"Brother Jiu, my name is Liu Zhiche, just call me Xiao Che. ”
"Well, I still have important business, so I'll say goodbye today, and I'll see you in the future. With that, Xiao Jiu disappeared from Liu Zhiche's sight in a few steps.
"City Lord's Mansion, you can visit in the future. A hint of banter flashed in Liu Zhiche's eyes.
And at this time, the city lord's mansion
"Little goose, you went out to make trouble again today. ”
"Sister, I didn't. Today is a short-sighted one, and when I was about to teach him a lesson, I was stopped by Cui Wen. So I didn't get into trouble today, hehe. ”
And in the city lord's study, Cui Wen is reporting today's events to the city lord.
"So, there's a big guy in the city. It should be for that thing, leave him alone, give him the green light appropriately, we can't mess with this kind of character. Fang Daoning stood at the door and ordered.
"Yes, I'll go down and make arrangements. Cui Wen retreated.
"It seems that Yan Yan can't be allowed to be so willful and arrogant anymore, if I offend the big guys, I can't protect her. ”
"Father doesn't need me to take care of it. Fang Bailong, who was sitting on the desk and correcting the copy, asked.
"Well, there you go. Especially this year, you also know that the sect competition is about to begin, and there will be no fewer monks who come to our Qingcheng, no matter which sect it is, we can't afford to provoke it. Fang Daoning said cautiously.
"Well, Yan Yan really should take care of it, this time she will be grounded for a few days, and in the future, she will have to let Xiaoyu follow her if she wants to go out. Fang Bailong planned to let his well-behaved and obedient eldest sister look at his arrogant second sister.
"Okay, you go and arrange it. ”
Night falls
Liu Zhiche and the others took the admission tickets to the fifth floor of the auction house and found their seats.
The fifth and sixth floors of the auction house are connected, and the fifth floor is ordinary seating, but each seat is also spaced one meter apart from the front and back, left and right. On the sixth floor, there are more than 20 VIP rooms.
The spotlights on the auction stage are lit up, and the lights around them are extinguished.
"Welcome to Yue's Auction House, because this lot is different from usual, so the old man will preside over this auction today. "The person standing on the stage to speak is none other than yesterday's old man Lou Sang.
"Today's first lot is a piece of iron essence, which can be used to make magic vessels below the sixth grade, with a starting price of 15,000 and no less than 1,000 each increase. The auction begins!"
Lou Sang lifted the red cloth that covered the glass cover in front of him, revealing a piece of iron essence placed in the glass cover.
After bidding, Tiejing was finally auctioned by one of the VIP rooms upstairs for 30,000 yuan.
"The second piece is a four-grade magic weapon, which has been identified by the old man as having an increase of as much as two percent for the monks who stepped on the Skyclave Realm. The reserve price is 20,000, and each increase shall not be less than 2,000. Let's go. ”
This magic weapon is the treasure that Liu Zhiche and the others put up for auction.
"30,000" upstairs VIP room directly increased by 10,000.
The people downstairs were silent for an instant, they knew that they couldn't compare their financial strength with the people upstairs no matter what, and if they forced the bidding, they would not be secretly resentful, and even invite death.
"Forty thousand" another VIP spoke.
The man before the "fifty thousand" did not give up.
"Sixty thousand"
"Eighty thousand"
"One hundred thousand"
"Okay, Lao Zhou, I wrote it down this time, and I'll give you 100,000. The VIP who bid at the beginning compromised.
"Hahaha, don't worry, Lao Wang, it's not good to be angry. The VIP who was bidding with him laughed and sarcastically said.
After 100,000, no one is raising the price, after all, 100,000 can buy a five-grade magic weapon that is almost good.
To say that the most excited are Liu Zhiche and the others sitting below. Now they went from being poor to being rich.
The subsequent lots were exhibited one by one, and some were taken by people downstairs, but most of them still went to the guests upstairs.
"Now there's the last lot, but before that, I'll tell you a story. Although everyone has heard this story. ”
"Legend has it that in ancient times, the mother goddess embodied all things, and what came to our world was the Ten Ancient Beasts, five of the ten divine beasts mysteriously disappeared, and the other five guarded the Star Continent. After hundreds of millions of years, these five divine beasts and divine elements were exhausted, so they learned to transform the mother gods, so there were us and the monsters. ”
"Okay, let's invite Director Yue to introduce you to the last lot, presumably everyone is here for this. ”
The woman moved the lotus step lightly, and walked up to the stage gracefully, holding an animal skin scroll in her hand, "The little woman Yue Bingqing is the director of this auction house." ”
The woman first introduced herself, and then said: "I think everyone has heard the legend that there are still gods left in Xingzhou after the transformation of the divine beast that guards the Star Continent. ”
This map records the approximate location of the Tianyi Qinglong spirit. By the way, there are seven branches in my Yue's Auction House, and counting the head office, there are seven other identical pictures being auctioned at this time. Yue Bingqing said with the map in his hand.
"Of course, if you get this map, you can know the location of the spirit first, and the chance of taking the first step is much greater. The starting price is three million, and each increase shall not be less than ten thousand, start. ”
"Three Million"
"Four Million" "Five Million"
Before the four million voices fell, the five million voices rose.
"Seven Million"
"Seven and a half million"
"10 million" suddenly opened in the No. 1 VIP room.
From beginning to end, VIP No. 1 said this.
"Ten Million Times"
In fact, it's not that no one wants to bid anymore, but when they see the No. 1 VIP walking out of the waist sign symbolizing the door of the divine machine, bidding is meaningless.
No one here can wrestle with the Divine Machine Gate in terms of financial resources. And the 10 million Shenji Gate also showed quite sincerity. If bidding at this time is not allowed to offend the god machine door, it is better to sell the god machine door to save face.
"Ten million twice"
"Ten million three times, deal. This lot was won by VIP No. 1. After saying that, Yue Bingqing handed over the scroll to Lou Sang, and walked down with all his grace.
"This concludes this auction. Lou Sang stood on the stage and announced.
Bang, the No. 1 Shenji Gate Man jumped down and took out a card, "Mr. Lou, here is 10 million, give me the picture quickly, I have to show it to the door master as soon as possible, let him decide." ”
Lou Sang took the card and confirmed that the money was enough, so he handed him the picture, "Then you have to be careful, in case you kill people and take treasures." ”
