Zhongli returned to his room, sat on the bed and looked at the newly acquired exercises in his hands, and couldn't help but smile helplessly.

Just now, the old woman dragged him to the library, and was even so enthusiastic that she personally selected a book of exercises for him to refine the body.

Yes, the old woman had already decided that Zhongli was a body cultivator, and went directly to the library to find a book of body refining exercises and gave it to him, saying that it was an exception, of course Zhongli wanted spiritual skills, but he didn't have a chance to speak, it was always the old woman who was talking, constantly telling him not to be proud of Yunyun, and constantly talking about the wonders of this body refining exercise, sending him back to the room all the way, and then leaving excitedly.

Zhongli has already read through the exercises, and there are indeed some merits, and even if he is powerful, how can he be as powerful as the Demon Summoning True Sutra. Moreover, his body has been tempered by the Thunder Tribulation, and this exercise is really useless. Sighing secretly, Zhong Yuan thought that he could only find another opportunity to learn some spiritual skills in the future.

For three days, no one had ever bothered him, except for someone who brought him food on time every day, and as Su Luo said, he was extremely free here. It's just that he practices every day, and it's also a little boring, so Zhongli plans to go out for a walk today.

"Huh, Brother Zhongli, didn't you go to the auction today?" a young monk passed by, saw Zhongli come out, and went up to say hello enthusiastically.

Zhongli looked at the person who came, but he didn't know him, it must have been some monk in the small square that day. Hearing the other party's words, Zhong Li remembered that there was an auction in Qingming City today, although there were no spirit stones, but he also wanted to see it, so he hurriedly replied: "I forgot the time for a while, this fellow Daoist, where is the auction held?"

Since Zhongli defeated Tuoba Ye that day, the young monks have admired Zhongli very much, and even made him an idol. At this time, I had the opportunity to talk to Zhongli, and I was quite excited in my heart, so I hurriedly returned: "Brother Zhongli just call me Lu Chen, the auction has already started, and it can be described as very lively." I'm coming back to get some spirit stones and rush to the second half. Brother Zhongli wants to go, and I can lead the way. ”

Zhongli arched his hand towards Lu Chen, acting extremely approachable, and said politely: "Okay, then it will be troublesome for Brother Lu Chen to lead the way." ”

Lu Chen hurriedly waved his hand, took two steps back, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhongli is so approachable, he is a true hero, unlike Tuobaya, who is a little older than you and is only a fourth-order spirit martial realm, and he always looks down on him with his nostrils facing the sky." Brother Zhongli taught a really good lesson that day!" Seeing that Zhongli had no strong frame and was so easy-going, Lu Chen's heart was extremely comfortable, and then thinking of Tuoba Ye's usual arrogant appearance, he was naturally on Zhongli's side.

Zhongli didn't want to offend anyone, and naturally he didn't want others to praise him to belittle others, so he could only smile helplessly and said: "Don't mention Tuobaya's matter again, it's all in the past." Brother Lu Chen, let's hurry up and get the spirit stone, I'll wait for you here, let's hurry up and participate in the auction. ”

Lu Chen nodded, asked Zhongli to wait for a moment, and hurriedly walked to his room.

The auction was already halfway through, and when the two of them arrived, they could faintly hear the fierce quarrel inside outside the door, it should be that the monks in the venue were bidding for a certain treasure with spirit stones, and it had reached the white-hot stage.

"Wait!" Just as Zhongli and Lu Chen were about to enter the auction venue, the guards stopped the two of them, did not let them enter, stretched out their right hands and stretched out to look at the two, the meaning was very obvious, pay the money!

Looking at the gesture of the guard, Lu Chen hurriedly explained: "Ah, Brother Zhongli, I forgot to tell you just now that you have to deliver a low-grade spirit stone to participate in the auction as a guarantee, otherwise there are too many monks in Qingming City, everyone wants to see the excitement, the venue is not big after all, and the monks who really have the strength to bid may not even have a place." ”

Zhongli nodded, and the gesture was understandable, but he hadn't taken out the spirit stone yet, but Lu Chen had delivered it for him, but not one, but ten lower-grade spirit stones.

Zhongli looked at Lu Chen's movements with some confusion, and asked, "Isn't it a low-grade spirit stone?" Brother Lu Chen, what are you?"

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Brother Zhongli, don't worry about it, just come with me." After saying that, he took Zhongli's arm and followed a maid to guide the way.

Although Zhongli was a little puzzled, he couldn't speak at the moment, so he let Lu Chen pull him in. The two of them came in without anyone noticing, and everyone was staring at the bidding on the auction table. Just when Zhongli was wondering where Lu Chen was going to take him to sit down, the maid in front of him actually took them to the second floor and entered a private room.

After the two of them arrived at the separate room, Zhongli suddenly realized that the use of the ten lower grade spirit stones was here. However, he was also a little embarrassed to think that he had been cheapened by Lu Chen, he had a total of dozens of spirit stones on him, and he also knew that he was not qualified to buy anything, but he just came to have a long experience, and he was ready to return the spirit stones to Lu Chen at the moment. He didn't want to be favored for nothing.

Lu Chen watched his movements, pressed his hand, and hurriedly said, "Brother Zhongli, what are you doing, don't you want to make me a friend? ”

When Zhongli heard Lu Chen's words, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, ten low-grade spirit stones were enough for himself. However, everyone is a person of temperament, Lu Chen said so, and he let the other party invite him once, and it was a big deal to repay it in other ways later.

Lu Chen saw Zhong Li's hand withdrawn, so he smiled and said: "Brother Zhong Li, there are only a dozen rooms on this second floor, and it is not easy to be able to sit in this independent single room, you have to spend five hundred lower grade spirit stones, and the ten lower grade spirit stones just now are just the qualification fee for entering this second floor, and I have already secured the room." Don't overthink it, let's concentrate on the auction first, there are a lot of good things in this auction. ”

Zhongli was a little surprised when he heard this, it was so expensive, but since Lu Chen said so, he couldn't say anything more, nodded and began to look at the auction environment. The room they were in was not big or small, there were only the two of them in the room, and through the window, a scantily clad and seductive woman stood on the auction table showing off a spiritual weapon.

When Zhongli saw that there was another floor of room above them, he couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Brother Lu Chen, who are the people on the third floor?

Lu Chen explained: "The third floor is not like the second floor where you can sit for money. There are also more than a dozen rooms on the third floor, among which there are the Yan City Lord of Qingming City, Deacon Su of our Su Mansion, and Shangguan Yaowen of Hengdao Sect, as well as Elder Mo of Biyun Sect, and the rest are some powerful and powerful people with high realms. ”

"Everyone didn't open their mouths to bid, naturally they were waiting for others to open their mouths and raise the price, this spiritual weapon has a great origin, it was once a blade of a strong man in the Yuanwu Realm, although the monks below shouted fiercely, it seems that they are determined to win, but compared to financial resources, it is still inferior to the monks in the single room upstairs. ”

Zhongli nodded, looked at the auction stand, and began to look at the spirit weapon as well.
