Chapter 15 The Auction
"There is a secret book that prohibits cultivation like "Blind Body", this shop is really bold. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Jiang Qin thought to himself as he looked at the contents on the paper.
In fact, there are quite a few so-called forbidden cultivation cheats, all of which are sideways, and most of them will cause cultivators to either change their personalities drastically, or they will have a thirst for killing, leading to serious consequences. Therefore, a gang like the Yanxian Gang will prohibit anyone from cultivating these cheats, and once they find that someone is cultivating, they will send a law enforcement team to chase them down.
And this "Blind Body" is one of the cheats that their Yan Immortal Gang's upper sect, the Yan Sect, stipulates that they cannot cultivate. Although Yan Sect did not say the specific reason, no one dared to violate the ban and secretly cultivate, after all, Yan Zong's name was not a joke.
There are some other cheats names on the paper, all of which are not small, but they are nothing compared to "Blind Death".
Although the price was not written on the paper, Jiang Qin completely guessed that these were not what he could afford at all, and it seemed that the other party mistakenly thought that he couldn't look down on the cheats in front of him, so he came up with more cherished cheats.
Jiang Qin quietly put the paper on the table and shook his head gently.
"Your Excellency's vision is not too high, although I don't dare to say that the secret books here are the most complete in the Yan Sect, they should all have them, which are enough to meet the various cultivation needs of the innate realm. Did you deliberately play tricks on me? The man said a little gloomily.
"How dare you have the intention of playing tricks in Xia, it's just that the cheats sold in your store are not suitable for cultivation in Xia, and there is no other intention." Jiang Qin said this on his lips, but he thought in his heart: "What is not suitable!" I can't afford it!
"Oh? It seems that Your Excellency is really demanding. That being the case, there is a place where you are sure to find what you need. The man said.
"Please advise." Jiang Qin bowed and said.
"You're visiting the grey market for the first time." The man did not directly answer Jiang Qin's question.
"How did you know? I asked myself if there was anything missing from my outfit. Jiang Qin asked suspiciously.
"Quite simply, most people who have been to the grey market come for the auction, where you can buy everything you want, as long as you have enough capital. And you don't know, apparently it's the first time here. The man said unhurriedly.
"I see, taught. I wonder when and where the auction will start? Are there any special rules? Jiang Qin said.
"The auction starts in about an hour, and the venue is in the central auction room, and as for the rules, it is similar to the gray market. Another reminder to you, if you don't have enough capital, don't rush to the auction. In case you get the picture and you don't have the money to settle the bill, the consequences are very serious. ”
"Thanks for the pointers. I won't bother when I'm down, and I'll take my leave first. Jiang Qin stood up and arched his hand and said.
The man did not speak, but arched his hand as well, and then made a gesture of please.
"Why is Shopkeeper Qin so polite to a young man, do you want him to take over your class and take charge of this Jade Shuxuan?" Not long after Jiang Qin went out, a charming woman's voice sounded in the house.
"How could it be. It's just that eighty percent of this person is from Red Leaf Town, and the gray bone grass that our Yushuxuan needs still depends on them to get it, so it's always right to make more friends. But Mrs. Li didn't help at the auction venue, what are you doing here? Aren't you afraid that someone will fight the idea of "Hundred Exercises"? The man said jokingly.
"Giggles. Shopkeeper Qin is really well-informed, he actually knows about our finale lot, I wonder if he is interested in joining the auction? The woman said with a smile on her lips.
Mrs. Li laughed, this kind of superb physical exercise method is not something I can make up my mind, even if I shoot it, it will set myself on fire, and the gains outweigh the losses. But why don't you go to a city of monks like Yingshui City, but come to a small place like Red Leaf Town? You must know that if you are there, the exercises of this level of "Hundred Exercises" will definitely fetch a sky-high price. ”
"Does Shopkeeper Qin want to know? But this reason is only known by insiders, if Shopkeeper Qin wants to know, it is better to..."
"There is no need for Mrs. Li to say more about joining your bank, I have already made up my mind." Shopkeeper Qin interrupted without waiting for the woman to finish.
"It's a wood, you have to know to join..."
Jiang Qin, who left the bookstore, did not go directly to the auction house, but went to several other places. According to the shopkeeper, there is still an hour before the auction begins, and it is useless to go now.
The other places sell weapons, medicinal herbs, and miscellaneous goods, and there is one that sells something more special -- intelligence.
It was the first time Jiang Qin had seen a place selling such a thing, so he couldn't help but be curious and go in and take a look. Listen to the shopkeeper and they can find out everything you want to know, as long as you pay for it.
This sentence made Jiang Qin's heart move, if it was really as powerful as they said, then he could completely let them check Shen Fei's details and the solution to the light cluster in his body, so that he didn't have to fight against Shen Fei.
Just when Jiang Qin mentioned his hope and was about to say his request, the other party said, "I don't accept commissions for cultivators or body practitioners. ”
This shattered the hope that had just been ignited in Jiang Qin's heart again, "It seems that you can only rely on yourself." He thought depressedly.
Jiang Qin, who was in no mood to continue shopping, came to the central auction hall to see if he could gain something in the auction.
Just as he was about to enter the auction hall, he was stopped and told that he needed to pay fifty taels of silver to enter the auction hall.
Hearing this, Jiang Qin couldn't help but scold the person who formulated this regulation, but the movements in his hands did not stop, and he obediently took out fifty taels, so that he was able to enter the auction hall.
After entering through the gate, there is a long corridor that turns around, and at each corner stands a big man in armor and holding a weapon, coldly watching everyone who walks by, looking extremely well guarded.
At the end, there was an iron gate, which was now tightly closed.
In front of the iron gate stood three people, two men and one woman. The man was dressed like the person in front of him, wearing black armor and his face was expressionless. The woman smiled like a flower, dressed in a yellow shirt, and a green belt around her waist was gently bunched, outlining her slender waist.
"This boy is invited. Welcome to this auction, this is your number plate please put away. After the woman bowed, she handed Jiang Qin a red sign with twenty-seven written on it.
Jiang Qin stretched out his hand to take the brand, played with it in his hand for a while before he spoke: "It's the first time I'm participating in the auction, I don't know what this thing is for?" ”
"This item is used by Childe to participate in the bidding and hand over the treasure after the auction, Childe must keep it, and return it after the auction. In addition, when bidding, do not falsely report the price, so as not to cause unpleasant scenes. The woman explained.
"Thank you, girl, I know. Can I go in now? After speaking, Jiang Qin hung the number plate on his waist and walked towards the iron gate.
The woman didn't stop her, she just stepped aside and made a gesture of please. And the two men, who had not said a word at first, stepped forward at this moment, and one grabbed the handle of one side of the door and pulled it back hard.
With the sound of "boom", the door opened, and Jiang Qin walked in quickly.
When you enter, you will be greeted by a huge pot-bottoming place. In the very center there was a one-zhang square platform, which was now empty except for a table. Outside the platform were layers of rising seats, extending to where Jiang Qin was.
Now there have been a lot of people gathered here, everyone is wearing a robe, either with a black veil on their faces, or with a hat like Jiang Qin, and none of them show their true faces.
It's strange that so many people are together and no one is talking, everyone just sits in their chairs and doesn't say a word.
Jiang Qin's arrival didn't attract much attention, only two or three people turned their heads to take a look, and then returned to their original state.
Jiang Qin didn't speak, found a side seat and sat down, waiting for the auction to start.
Then people kept coming in, and after half an hour, the seats were almost full. Looking at the crowd of black pressure, there was no sound at all, which was really a bit weird.
After about a pillar of incense, there was a sound on the bottom of the platform, and an old man walked out, this old man had white hair, wore a yellow shirt, walked tremblingly, and felt like a wind and candle.
"Looks like there's some kind of secret tunnel around that platform." Jiang Qin thought to himself.
"Ahem, thank you for participating in this auction, it's not an honor. The contemptible flamingo is the auctioneer of this auction, and I would like to ask you to help me. The old man gasped.
"Old man Huo, don't talk nonsense, let's get started." The impatient people below urged.
"Okay, since everyone is so anxious, let's start right away. The first lot, but what everyone dreams of a martial artist, with him, he can directly step into the innate realm and become a real master. Even in a dangerous place like Momiji Town, there is a chance to save your life. You've probably guessed it, yes! It's Wu Ji Dan! This is what the Bank received at a great cost, and I wanted to keep it for my own use, but in order to repay your support to the Bank, I specially took it out. Don't say much, let's start bidding, Wuji Dan's reserve price is 10,000 taels! Each increase must not be less than a thousand! The old man took out a small red vial and said in a very seductive tone.
"Twenty thousand taels!"
"Twenty-five thousand taels!"
"I'll give 30,000! I'm going to make up my mind for this Wuji Dan! ”
As soon as the old man's voice fell, the people below immediately began to bid, looking at their crazy appearance, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to increase the price tenfold. The old man, who called himself the flaming crane, apparently saw this, twisted his sticky white beard, and smiled on his face.
Jiang Qin looked at the hot scene in front of him, listening to the higher and higher prices, he couldn't help but reach out and touch the silver ticket in his arms, and sighed, "It seems that it's another trip for nothing......"
