Chapter 45: Ice Spirit Purple Lotus
This auction is unprecedentedly lively.
Although it is the Yun family's industry, there are countless treasures and curiosities in the monthly lot, and there will be many cultivators and even children of the family who will visit. But for the first time in nearly three years, like this time, the auction hall was almost crowded with people.
The second floor is full of private rooms, and inscribed doors and windows isolate the hustle and bustle outside, exclusively for guests with status. Gu Lanyi and his son Gu Xiaotian were sitting by the window, flipping through a book of illustrated books in their hands. Gao Qiyun and Zhenyi stood on the left and right, like loyal followers.
Gu Lanyi's hand is a book of all the auction items tonight.
"Miss Gu can take a look at it casually, if you have something you like, you can take a picture of it later. ”
On the side, Yun Qingchen was gentle and elegant, and introduced Gu Lanyi with a smile: "For example, this first spiritual weapon, the five-grade Wave Chopping Sword, is provided by the Refiner Guild. Although it is only a five-grade spirit weapon, it is inlaid with a piece of Cuilan spirit crystal, which can increase the user's speed and have the effect of lightening the body and being sensitive. Compared to the ordinary six-grade spirit weapon, it is about the same. ”
Listening to his explanation, Gu Lanyi looked at the detailed description on the illustrated book, and his eyes fell on the last string of numbers: 200,000 spirit stones.
It's a bit expensive!
A five-grade spirit weapon, the starting price is 200,000 spirit stones, and after a round of bidding, are you afraid of 4 or 500,000?
Flipping to the back casually, the item on the illustrated book is a piece of red ore.
Gu Lanyi's eyes lit up, and he laughed: "Such a big piece of phoenix stone is rare, if I can add a little bit when I refine the weapon last time, I think the weak water three thousand swords will be improved a little." ”
"Miss Gu is really knowledgeable and talented, and she even knows this rare phoenix stone. ”
Yun Qingchen's eyes flashed with a gleam, and there was a touch of respect in his tone unconsciously: "I have long heard that Miss Gu has refined a spirit sword, which is said to be of the sixth grade, if you know it in the morning, you must present this phoenix stone in advance." ”
"This phoenix stone is yours?"
Gu Lanyi was slightly surprised, a fist-sized phoenix stone, dazzling red, even on the illustrated book, it also shone with a seductive and charming aura. You can imagine how dazzling it is!
A forging spirit crystal worth 500,000 spirit stones, Yun Qingchen was actually willing to give it to her?
"Only by giving it to Miss Gu can it play its greatest role, what is there to be reluctant about a piece of spirit crystal. ”
Yun Qingchen looked light and breezy, and he didn't care about the value of this thing at all. Although Gu Lanyi understood that he was saying this to win over himself, the way he showed did not disgust her at all, and even had a faint good feeling.
is worthy of being the eldest son of the Yun family, and she is willing to accept a gift.
didn't really accept it, Gu Lanyi raised the corners of his lips lightly, and didn't answer: "Well, even things like Phoenix Stone are in the front, I think tonight's auction is very good." ”
didn't get a positive response from Gu Lanyi, Yun Qingchen didn't care, and called a subordinate to give a few words.
Soon the next person sent all kinds of delicate pastries, small and exquisite, revealing a strong cuteness. Gu Xiaotian cheered when he saw it, Gu Lanyi nodded, he immediately stuffed one into his mouth and ate it happily.
"Xiaotian, eat slowly, beware of choking. Long Qianli on the side finally had a chance to speak.
The more he liked Gu Lanyi, the more he didn't dare to show it, he didn't want her to know, and he didn't want to be noticed by Yun Qingchen and the others.
Except for the initial greetings, which was a little more enthusiastic, causing Yun Qingchen to look at him twice, Long Qianli immediately reined in. It wasn't until this time that he found the right opportunity to speak, expressing his heart without feeling strange.
While speaking, Long Qianli handed Gu Xiaotian a cup of sweet and sour plum tea.
"Thank you, uncle. ”
Gu Xiaotian took the cup, raised a smile on his face and said innocently: "Uncle is so good to Xiaotian, do you want to be Xiaotian's stepfather?"
"Poof!"
Yun Qingchen, who was drinking tea, almost spewed out.
Caught off guard, Long Qianli was embarrassed and didn't know where to put his hands and feet, and hurriedly denied it: "How can there be, how is it possible! Xiaotian, you ...... Don't talk nonsense, beware of your mother being angry. I'm a friend to your mother, a friend...... Uh-huh, that's it......"
"Uncle can't speak clearly!"
Gu Xiaotian stared at him and said seriously: "My mother said that she is courteous when she has nothing to do, she is either a traitor or a thief, and my uncle is so good to Xiaotian for no reason, but he actually likes ......"
"Okay, don't talk nonsense. ”
Gu Lanyi finally spoke, interrupting his son's words: "Don't mind, the second prince, Tong Yan is unscrupulous." ”
Her smile is like a flower, like a budding peony, graceful and delicate, graceful and lovely. waved his hand at Long Qianli, and the illustrated book in his casual hand flipped a few pages down the wind, but he saw that she looked natural, she couldn't see that she was shy, nor was she angry, and she didn't care whether Long Qianli really liked her at all.
As if sensing something, Yun Qingchen glanced at Long Qianli thoughtfully, and a smile flashed in his eyes: "Well, the auction will start soon, is Brother Long interested tonight?"
"Just take a look and talk about it then. Long Qianli finally got out of the embarrassment and returned to his normal color.
The three of them looked down, and saw that the venue was already full of people, everyone was well-dressed, fragrant and beautiful, and the discussion gradually faded down, and they were looking at a middle-aged man who came out of the front desk with great interest.
This is Yun Hong, the manager of the Yun family's auction, who has always been responsible for various matters of the auction, and has long been trained to have a clever mouth all year round. When he came on the stage with a smile on his face, two sentences set off the first climax of the audience.
The first lot was the Wupin Wave Chopping Sword that Gu Lanyi first saw, and under Yun Hong's explanation and intentional rendering, the asking price of 200,000 spirit stones quickly climbed to 380,000. Gu Lanyi just wiped his son's mouth, and finally the price had been set, and he was won by a young man who shouted extremely loudly and imposingly at the price of 470,000 spirit stones.
Yes, it was still within her expectations.
Gu Lanyi retracted his gaze and turned his attention to the last page of the illustrated book.
It was an elixir with seven rainbow patterns on its surface, the size of a dragon's eye, and it exuded a dense brilliance around it, as if there was sunlight shining on it, and it was as clear as a piece of glass.
Nirvana!
This is the finale of this auction, and you can imagine the importance of this elixir.
The starting price alone is 3 million spirit stones, and Gu Lanyi can almost imagine how much of a sensation it will cause when the Nirvana Pill finally appears, and what sky-high price it will eventually be auctioned.
"Hey, this ......" At this moment, Long Qianli's voice sounded beside him.
The doubt in his tone made Gu Lanyi come back to his senses, only to see that he looked slightly stunned, very surprised, as if he didn't expect this lot to appear. What is it that surprises Long Qianli, the second prince?
Following his line of sight, Gu Lanyi looked at the auction site.
Steward Yun Hung is introducing the sixth lot - a purple lotus flower in a jade box.
"Ice Spirit Purple Lotus!" Gu Lanyi blurted out as he saw it.
Her eyes widened suddenly, revealing a strong surprise, she didn't expect to see such a thing that was just needed.
Gu Lanyi came to participate in the auction just for the Nirvana Pill, but now he has reaped an unexpected joy. This Ice Spirit Purple Lotus is a rare six-grade elixir, even in the Nightmare Forest, it is not easy to find, but it is precisely her son's congenital fetal poison that needs the Ice Spirit Purple Lotus as the main medicine, and she suddenly gave birth to the heart of must.
Seeing that Gu Lanyi suddenly became interested, Yun Qingchen asked, "What, Miss Gu is interested in this thing?"
didn't hide it, Gu Lanyi nodded and said, "Yes, I didn't expect to come across this thing, it just happened to be what I urgently needed." As she spoke, she glanced at her son, and a touch of distress flashed in her eyes.
If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't make up the elixir, how could she not be able to refine the antidote pill?
The super brain is powerful, and she can do almost anything in this world, but she is a clever woman who has no rice to cook, and she can only watch when she has no means.
"Well, this Ice Spirit Purple Lotus is a rare elixir, and it was also sent by a Warcraft hunter only before yesterday. Yun Qingchen explained the origin in two sentences, and asked curiously, "Is Miss Gu going to refine any pills again?"
There was no time to answer, the sound of bidding had already sounded below, and it was obvious that Gu Lanyi was not the only one who was interested in this Ice Spirit Purple Lotus!
"700,000!"
"I'll give 750,000!"
"This is a rare elixir, and it's not bad to win 800,000. ”
“......”
The scene was in an uproar, and a small climax was set off for the first time, and countless people's eyes were burning, and they couldn't afford to bid. After only half a cup of tea, the price of this Ice Spirit Purple Lotus went all the way up, and it reached a high price of 1.58 million spirit stones.
"Just one elixir is almost 2 million, it's crazy. Yun Qingchen's tone was indifferent, as if he had long been accustomed to such a scene, and his face was both a little smug and a little emotional.
After hesitating for a moment, Gu Lanyi spoke: "Young Master Yun, I want this Ice Spirit Purple Lotus." ”
Yun Qingchen immediately understood what she meant: "Miss Gu doesn't have enough money to bring?" It's okay, you are already a VIP of our auction house, and you can enjoy the right to advance 3 million spirit stones." If that's not enough, the final finale of the auction, the Nirvana Pill, was originally Miss Gu's, and it will be converted from it when the time comes. ”
Since this is the case, then Gu Lanyi is not welcome.
"1 million!"
In the middle of the venue, an ethereal voice sounded, and everyone in the hall suddenly froze.
This is a big bid among the VIPs.
This judgment is due to the fact that this sound cannot distinguish the source and direction at all, which is the characteristic of all the boxes in the auction hall. In order to ensure the confidentiality of the identity of the guests, all the bids of the guests in the box will be disguised by inscriptions, making it impossible to distinguish the location and sound.
Gu Lanyi's 1 million bid just now, even the box next door on the same floor as her didn't know that she was close at hand.
Although 100 is not a small amount, it is obvious that Gu Lanyi is not the only person who is tempted by Ice Spirit Purple Lotus, and there will soon be a price increase of 100,000, but Gu Lanyi has the heart to win, no matter how much the other party bids, she will suppress it.
"1.45 million. ”
This time, finally no one raised the price anymore.
Hearing that the steward Yun Hong finally slapped the board, Gu Lanyi successfully slapped the Ice Spirit Purple Lotus into his hand, and the first comfortable smile bloomed on his lips.
