Chapter 155: Heavenly Oracle Auction
Different from the ancient architectural style of Zhu Tianlou, the Tianyu Auction Pavilion is very exotic. It was a huge bluestone castle with round towers adorned with narrow windows and low cupolas. Passing through the heavy, quaint arched gate, inside is a vast hall lined with hundreds of jade seats, and eight huge grandstands above it. The grandstand was obscured by a snow-white curtain, apparently intended for extremely distinguished guests.
"Sister Qing'er, you can be regarded as coming, and it is so hard for my sister to wait." The auction has not yet begun, and the invited guests are scrambling to find their seats. A woman with a hot figure and a beautiful face in the stands twisted her body and grabbed Feng Qing'er's hand through the crowd.
Feng Qing'er smiled warmly: "Sister Rongrong, I'm sorry. For some reason, there was a lot of vigilance in this Shenwen City, and I encountered several waves of Praetorian Guards along the way, which made me want to hang a sign on my chest to show my identity. β
Chu Rong said: "Sister is not strange. You don't know, a few months ago, the four cities and counties of the Heavenly Empire rebelled and revolutionized, wanting to overthrow the current royal family. The revolutionary army has now occupied half of the country's territory, and it is not far from the national capital, Shenwen City. In order to prevent the rebel army from infiltrating Shenwen City and causing chaos, the royal family had to strengthen its vigilance. β
"If the revolutionary army hits Shenwen City, wouldn't my sister be very dangerous. It's better to wait until the auction is over, and my sister will go to the Kamikaze Pavilion with me to play for a few days, and when the rebels are eliminated, my sister will return to Shenwen City. β
Chu Rong said while guiding Mujun and the others through the stairs: "Sister Qing'er, don't make fun of my sister. What kind of place is Kamikaze Pavilion, I don't even have the qualifications to look at it from afar, how dare I dare to go with my sister? β
The four of them stood in front of a door with a No. 1 house number, and Chu Rong said, "It's still the same, and the No. 1 VIP stand is specially reserved for you." I should go back and get ready, you guys have a good rest, and the auction will start right away. β
Inside the door is a small terrace, in which is placed a comfortable water sofa from Guxi Country, the surface of the sofa is a layer of soft black tiger skin, the inside is filled with water with a secret method, and it seems to be surrounded by water waves when sitting on it. On the table, tropical fruits and various desserts are placed in the state of Shannan, and there is also a favorite red wine of Northern Summer.
Twilight poured himself a glass of red wine, pulled back the white curtain, and snuggled up to the balcony railing. Looking at the noisy crowd below, he sighed and said, "The face of the Kamikaze Pavilion is really different, even the VIP room is the first, not to mention the service and entertainment inside. β
Feng Qing'er sat on the water sofa, listening to the noisy voice coming from below, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly: "All the countries in the entire southern region of the Eastern Continent are under the control of the Kamikaze Pavilion. Even if there is a change of dynasties within them, in terms of the general trend, no country has dared to compete with the Kamikaze Pavilion. Once they anger the Kamikaze Pavilion, they will be greeted by the fury of thunder. Therefore, the small forces in these countries will desperately tie up the kamikaze pavilion, even if they don't get any benefits, it's good to leave a good impression on the kamikaze pavilion. This is also the reason why a large number of countries and powers invite the Kamikaze Pavilion to participate in their various activities every year, and the Heavenly Oracle Auction is only a small one of them. β
Twilight drank the red wine from his glass, and when he inadvertently looked down, the glass in his hand suddenly shook, and a smile was reflected on its surface. "I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here."
Feng Qingxiu also seemed to have noticed it, and said lightly: "It's the two strange guys I met on the stairs of Zhu Tianlou a few days ago, and they also came to participate in the auction." β
"I didn't expect to meet here, it seems that their identities must not be simple." Feng Qing'er said: "After all, the Heavenly Oracle Auction is also very prestigious in the entire Heavenly Oracle Empire, and the unknown ones are not qualified to enter at all. β
"It's interesting, dragging a seriously ill body to see the auction, it seems that there must be something in this auction that they desperately want to get." Twilight laughed.
Feng Qing'er said: "You still have the heart to care about others, don't forget the purpose of your coming here this time." Originally, I thought that you would definitely take action in the past three days, and at least go to the Heavenly Oracle Pavilion to inquire about the situation, but I didn't expect to sneak out and eat the entire Shenwen City alone. I'd like to see how you can get the dragon's blood and complete the mission. β
The crystal clear red wine slid into Dusk Jun's mouth, he shook the wine glass gently, and said lightly, "Then please wait and see Senior Sister Qing'er." By the way, you were wrong about one thing, but I'm not ...... One person ate all the delicacies of Shenwen City. "And, of course, the Extreme One.
Soon, the curtains on the other terraces above the hall were also opened, and the dignitaries of the auction were seated inside. When the huge red curtain is lifted, it is a sign that the auction is about to begin.
The host of this auction is Na Churong, and after a brief opening remark, the auction officially began. The opening scene is always difficult to arouse everyone's interest, and at most it plays a role in throwing bricks and stones. In less than a quarter of an hour, three treasures were auctioned. The bidders were all sitting at the bottom of the hall, and no one on the terrace was interested in bidding.
"The fourth treasure in the auction below is a spirit grade white-rank quality elixir, called the Earth Lotus Breaking Dao Pill, which was refined by a Nirvana Realm powerhouse. The most beneficiary of this pill is the person who has reached the peak of the Void Source Realm at the martial level. After taking this pill, it can make people at the peak of the Void Source Realm instantly break through the bottleneck and reach the Spirit Habitat Realm, and there will be no side effects. The reserve price is 300,000 Daoyuan spars. β
Someone in the crowd at the bottom of the hall immediately quoted that the elixir that could be promoted to the Spirit Habitat without any side effects was nothing at all in the eyes of everyone. In just a moment, the price of the Earth Lotus Breaking Dao Pill had risen to 800,000 Dao Source Crystals. However, Dusk Jun and the others were obviously not interested in it, the three of them had already arrived at the Spirit Habitat, and this elixir had no effect on them.
In Terrace Seven above the hall.
Su Zhe said to Su Yinwen who was on the water sofa: "Father, the child wants to bid for this elixir." The second brother had been promoted to the ninth order of the Void Source Realm not long ago, and there had been no chance of breaking through, if he could help the second brother break through the Void Source Realm with the help of the Earth Lotus Breaking Dao Pill, the power of the Su family would also be greatly improved. β
Su Yinwen shook his head slightly and said, "Although the Earth Lotus Breaking Dao Pill has no side effects, I still feel that it may not be a good thing to let Su Yang be promoted easily." β
Su Zhe said: "Now the situation is chaotic, the revolutionary army may attack Shenwen City at any time, and everything will fall into chaos at that time." If the second brother can be promoted to the spiritual realm, wouldn't it have an extra ability to protect himself. β
Obviously, Su Zhe's words moved Su Yinwen, and he nodded and said, "Okay, it's up to you." β
Su Zhe waved his hand, and the maid next to him nodded. When he came to the railing and struck a small purple bell hanging next to the curtain, the venue fell silent. Everyone knows that the VIP above is going to make an offer.
"The Su family of Shenwen City, offer one hundred and twenty thousand Daoyuan spars." The maid spat orchid incense in her mouth, and her voice was crisp.
For a while, no one at the venue offered a higher price. One hundred and twenty thousand Dao Source Crystals is nothing to those who can enter the Heavenly Oracle Pavilion, although they can quote a higher price, what they are afraid of is the power that quotes this price. When the emperor ascended the throne, he canonized a total of five princes with different surnames and let them stay in Shenwen City, forming the existing five major families in Shenwen City. The Su family is one of them.
Chu Rong on the stage was also stunned, she didn't expect that the people on the terrace would actually make a move in the first half of the auction, because as long as one of the parties wants to bid, and the other parties are not interested, then basically the quoted price will not be increased, because the various forces below can't afford to provoke and don't want to provoke the behemoth above, so no one will offer.
Generally, the forces above will not participate in the bidding in the first half of the auction, and what they are competing for is the final treasure, and this situation like the Su family is purely accidental.
Chu Rong hurriedly came back to her senses, and said naturally: "The Su family bid one hundred and twenty thousand, if there is no higher bid, then ......" She even saved the basic three confirmations, and directly wanted to make a deal.
"One million and three million." Someone in the crowd below suddenly quoted.
Chu Rong was stunned, she didn't expect that there would be someone who didn't want to give face to the Su family and wanted to bid for this pill. She searched for prestige and saw that the offer was made by a young man in a dark green robe, that is, one of the two people that Dusk Jun and the others had met, but Chu Rong didn't seem to have an impression of him in her memory. It seems that this kid is not from Shenwen City, otherwise he would not be so uninteresting.
Inside Terrace No. 1 above the terrace.
Twilight looked at the green-robed young man with interest, a playful expression on his face. During the three days in Shenwen City, Feng Qing'er had mentioned to them about the distribution of power in Shenwen City. In addition to the Jiang royal family, the five major families are the most powerful existences. "What do these two people want, why do they want to go against the Su family."
Feng Qing'er said nonchalantly: "A cat wants to snatch food from a dog's mouth, do you care what the cat's purpose is or the final result?" β
Twilight shrugged noncommittally and said, "I don't care what the final outcome is, but at least I hope the winner is the cat, after all, I prefer dog meat to the former." β
in terrace seven.
Su Zhe didn't expect that someone below would actually save the face of the Su family. "Markup." He said lightly.
"The Su family's offer, one and a half million." The maid rang the bell and said.
"One million six hundred thousand." Not to be outdone, the dark green youth said.
Su Zhe waved his hand, and the maid quoted again: "Two million." β
The voice of the quotation below disappeared, but when everyone thought he had given up, the young man in green said in a deep voice, "Two million and one million." β
Su Zhe was just about to signal the maid to continue the offer, but Su Yinwen on the side suddenly spoke, asking Su Zhe to give up the bid. Su Zhe looked at the middle-aged man with some puzzlement, and Su Yinwen just shook his head slightly. "Our money isn't spent on a small Earth Lotus Breaking Dao Pill." And when he looked at the young man in green through the railing, his eyes were full of smiles.
The Su family's sudden abandonment surprised everyone. It was just a small episode, and the auction continued in a lively manner.
"The following treasure is a spiritual black rank Heart Source Seven Soul Zhi, as we all know, Heart Source Seven Soul Zhi can wash bones and marrow, and greatly change people's physique. And the Heart Source Seven Soul Zhi on top of the spiritual product can help those who have a physique that is not suitable for cultivating the Holy Qigong Method to reshape their bodies, so that they can be completely reborn and embark on the path of cultivation. The reserve price is three million Daoyuan spars. β
Inside Terrace II.
Jiang Wei looked at Twilight Jun on the opposite terrace with interest, and on his shoulder stood an owl quietly, with the blood of raw flesh still remaining in its beak. "The little princess of the Kamikaze Pavilion is here again, but this time the Lord of the Phoenix Pavilion doesn't seem to have come, but there are two more nasty people around her."
"Your Highness, do you want me to get rid of them?" The sword in Yi Zhuang's hand has shown its edge slightly.
Jiang Wei shook his head and said, "No." You think that the people of Kamikaze Pavilion are as easy to deal with as a woman lying on the bed, don't let the fox get caught by the fox and make a fuss. Especially in such a sensitive period now, there is no room for extraneous branches. Don't forget what we're here for. β
When he saw the next item to be auctioned, his face suddenly turned cold. "Heart Source Seven Soul Zhi? Reborn? He pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled again. If the second brother is here, he must be very happy, but he must have a dog that can't hold back and wants to make a move! β
Inside Terrace III.
Wu Yuanji asked worriedly: "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, do we want to make a move, this Heart Source Seven Soul Zhi must not fall into the hands of the Second Prince, otherwise we will lose an important weight." β
Jiang Mo's eyes flashed with light, and he smiled evilly: "Old Wu, don't you think it's also a pleasure to appreciate a person's painful expression when his ethereal hope turns into despair again?" What's more, even if a cripple becomes an ordinary person, do you feel that he has the ability to change everything? All that could change was his weak heartβthe little complacency he used to regain his healthβall the more ridiculous. Other than that, he couldn't change anything. β
Wu Yuanji said: "Don't we do anything? β
Jiang Mo tugged on the chain in his hand, and the collar around the neck of a girl from the snake clan pulled her towards Jiang Mo, Jiang Mo grabbed her hair tightly and kissed her fiercely. "We just have to watch the show, a dog-eat-dog show." The girl of the snake clan let out a seductive soft moan, and the snake tail slowly wrapped around Jiang Mo's waist, but was knocked to the ground by Jiang Mo's backhand. He wiped his lips with his thumb and smiled grimly, "You are only worthy of me, understand?" β
