Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Underground Auction
Xing Guang did not hear the conversation between the two because he had restrained all his breath and did not release his divine sense. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info only waited for the two of them to enter the Wuze District before they showed their bodies again, and galloped all the way to Baijia Village at the foot of the mountain. At this time, it was evening, and there were nearly half fewer pedestrians on the streets than in the morning, and some shops were closed early, so Xing Guang's appearance naturally did not attract anyone's attention.
"Well, there hasn't been much change here, Master Fan took me along this road to ask Yuan Zhenzi's thief for help. Now that they have returned to Qicai Peak, they don't know how they are doing! Walking on the slightly deserted street, Xing Guang's heart was mixed, recalling that eight years ago, Fan Ning'er took his memory lost self to find Yuan Zhenzi for help, and it was still as vivid as what happened yesterday, so he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
"Although I don't know what kind of consideration Master Fan based on when he agreed to return to Qicai Peak at that time, since I am not dead, I must not let this sect that Master Ancestor and they have created with great difficulty disappear. When I go to visit the Virgin Sect tomorrow, let's see if I can discuss with them to borrow the teleportation array and take me to the nearest town to the Colorful Peak Sect, so that I can join up with Xiaoming and them to discuss the plan of reviving the sect as soon as possible! Following the route in his memory, Xing Guang found the palace of the Virgin Sect, but because it was getting late, he could only find a well-decorated restaurant nearby to stay for one night, and then visit tomorrow.
"Yo, little brother, are you staying at the hotel or eating something?" The doorman, who was standing at the door to solicit business, saw a customer entering the store and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him warmly.
"I'm staying at the hotel, so I'll book a room for me first. In addition, prepare a copy of the best spirit tea and spirit fruit you have here and send it to my room. Especially the spirit fruit, prepare a little more! Xing Guang casually dealt with the doorman while casually taking out a bag of spirit stones from the mustard storage ring and throwing it over.
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll open a room for you right away!" After Xiao Er took the spirit stone, he neatly helped Xing Guang register and open an upper room, and personally guided him to the guest room area on the third floor to help him find a room. Xing Guang was also satisfied with the doorman's service, and casually threw a high-grade spirit stone as a tip, so happy that the doorman bent down again and again to thank him.
After the doorman left, Xing Guang swiped open the door with a special room card and walked in, the first impression of the whole room was not very big, but the decoration was very exquisite and elegant. In particular, the surrounding walls are actually reinforced with enchantments, which can resist the attacks of ordinary spells and divine sense detection, ensuring the safety and privacy of the room, which shows that the people who built this restaurant really put a lot of thought into arranging it.
"Well, it's not bad, it's better than I thought, I don't know what the taste of the spirit tea and spirit fruit will be delivered later. If the taste is not bad, you might as well buy more tomorrow to take away, and buy some snacks for Heiling to satisfy your cravings! Xing Guang, who was very satisfied with the room, sat cross-legged on the wooden bed and began to recuperate, recovering the mana that had been lost due to the fight just now, while releasing Hei Ling to let him wander around the room to satisfy his curiosity about the outside world.
It didn't take long for the flattering voice of the previous doorman to sound outside the door: "Little brother, the spirit tea and spirit fruit are ready, do you want to bring it in now?" "Well, come in!" At this time, Xing Guang had recovered to seventy-seven eighty-eight, and after hearing the doorman's voice, his mind flashed, and Hei Ling had already slipped back into his clothes very obediently. Then Xing Guang flicked his finger at the door that had been banned, and after a crisp "squeak" of the door, the smiling doorman appeared outside the door, pushing a luxurious cart in his hand, nodding and walking in.
"Little brother, these are the best spiritual teas and spiritual fruits in our store, please use them slowly. There is also an invitation to the largest underground auction in the region, as a personal gift to you, I hope it will be helpful to you! The doorman placed several plates of spiritual tea and spiritual fruits exuding abundant spiritual energy on the small table in the center of the room, and respectfully placed the invitation card next to the fruit bowl with both hands.
"Invitations to the underground auction?" Xing Guang, who was originally just looking forward to the spirit tea and spirit fruit, was immediately attracted after seeing the doorman put a token with a blood-red glimmer on the table, and with a slight move of his right hand, the red token had already arrived in his hand.
"Little brother is not a resident monk at first glance, so he must not know much about the underground auction here." Seeing Xing Guang's somewhat puzzled expression, the doorman, who was good at observing words and feelings, immediately came over and enthusiastically began to introduce.
"Although these auctions are held in various places and in similar forms, most of them are public auction venues. But the problem is that not all good things are suitable for public auctions, especially some spiritual treasures obtained in disgraceful ways, and sellers often choose to trade privately in order to prevent others from tracking and retaliating, which has also given birth to the prevalence of underground auctions! ”
"And to successfully hold an underground auction, it is not possible to do it without the backing of a strong force, because those bloody spiritual treasures often involve many grievances between sects. As the organizer, on the one hand, it is necessary to fully ensure the information and personal safety of the seller during the auction, and on the other hand, it is necessary to prevent the relevant sects from coming to make trouble during the auction, so it is necessary to have sufficient strength to ensure it. And in this Demon Cave Mountain Realm, because of the chaos of fish and dragons, all the major sects are stationed, so it is even more difficult to successfully hold an underground auction. ”
"Earlier, before the four major sects reached a consensus, as long as any sect dared to organize this kind of underground auction, it would basically be secretly dismantled by other sects, resulting in a good auction often turning into a bloody martial arts practice. Later, the four major sects secretly reached an agreement to hold the local underground auction in turn by the four major sects, which calmed down the dispute and set the rules for the underground auction on the mountain boundary of the Demon Cave. ”
