In the territory of Gou Chen Xian Dynasty, Zhennan Pass, an underground auction is being carried out in a low-key and enthusiastic manner.

It's really underground - in order to avoid being searched by the city guards, this kind of shady auction has always been held in some hidden place; This time, it was selected in an underground warehouse in the east of the city that had been abandoned for a long time.

"Demon withered grass, 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones once; 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones twice, and 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones three times. Deal. ”

A dry voice came from the thin black-robed mouth on the stage, and there was no graceful girl holding the box, and the two figures who also took the box according to the wide black robe. This made someone in the audience, who was also in a black robe, pout slightly.

Hey, a bunch of rats that can't see the light.

…… It seems that I scolded myself too.

"The next lot is: Flame Demon Bone Iron." The black-robed man on the stage naturally didn't know about someone's belly, and still continued his work:

"Flame Demon Bone Iron, although it is named after iron, is actually refined from the skull of the Flame Demon clan in the Land of Flowing Fire. Today's lot weighs six catties and four taels, and it is refined from the skulls of more than thirty Jindan Realm Flame Demons......"

Here it comes. Someone in the audience who had been bored for a long time because of poverty suddenly perked up.

That's the goal of her trip.

“…… The starting price is 30,000 medium-grade spirit stones. After the introduction, the black-robed man continued to say without any fluctuation: "Anyone who responds to this price should raise the sign in his hand. ”

"......" Zhu Liu naturally can't afford this money, but fortunately, she is also ready for the second hand.

"Thirty thousand!" Zhu Liu held up the sign and shouted in a disguised hoarse male voice.

"There's already an offer, is there anyone willing to give up thirty-one thousand?" The black-robed auctioneer continued to walk through the process in his dry tone.

"Thirty-seven thousand!" Another auctioneer in the audience, who was also shrouded in black robes, immediately increased the price sharply.

"One went out to 37,000 ......"

Before the auctioneer on the stage could speak, just as everyone's attention was attracted by the bidder, a sudden change occurred: I saw that the black-robed man who had bid 30,000 yuan suddenly shook his body, and in an instant, he came to the stage, threw a straight punch, and slammed into the protective shield outside the lot!

"Kara-"

With a loud bang, the protective shield that was enough to block the full force of Brother Jindan was shattered by this person's punch; Then there was a slight flower in front of everyone's eyes, and the man had already put away the brocade box containing the lots, and flew to the side of the protective array.

For the sudden changes in the field, the black-robed auctioneer still looks calm and relaxed; He turned his head to look at the black-robed man who seemed to be trapped by the formation, turned around, bent down slightly, and said respectfully to a thin old man sitting in the shadows:

"I'm going to bother Cheng Zhenren again."

"That's it, just leave this little girl to the old man." Brushing the gray beard on his chest, the thin old man stood up, quite a noble and authentic manner.

Flying in front of the black-robed man, the old man unabashedly released the powerful momentum of his primordial realm: "Little girl, I advise you, now tie your hands and abandon your cultivation, I can still ...... Well?! ”

I saw a short sword with red light flashing in the black-robed man's hand, and turned it lightly at the formation barrier: "Snort-"

With a soft sound, this sturdy array set up by several Yuanying monks was actually broken by her, a large hole large enough for one person to pass through; A flash of red light flashed, and the black-robed man had already escaped straight out of the gap, crashing through the entire warehouse, and fled into the distance at great speed.

His face flushed slightly, and when he saw the short sword, a ray of essence flashed in the thin old man's originally unfluctuating old eyes. Before everyone could come back to their senses, the infant monk had already turned into a black light, chasing towards the red light that was frantically fleeing.

——————I'm a dividing line——————

Two hundred miles southwest of Zhennanguan, a small wooden house is located in the green mountains and valleys.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, the door of the wooden house was slammed open, and a red light fell on the ground of the wooden house, revealing a figure: it was the black-robed man who had previously intercepted the Flame Demon Bone Iron.

After stumbling slightly, the black-robed man reached out to hold on to the wall, and took off his mask with a slight gasp, revealing a bright and innocent face.

"Whew-" Zhu Liu gasped a few times happily and took off the black robe on his body. "It's going pretty well...... I just don't know what crazy that old man is. Feeling a dull pain in his back, Zhu Liu frowned and kicked the door on, and began to take off his clothes: "It's just to get a piece of money, as for being so desperate......"

Luo's shirt faded away, and Zhu Liu's beautiful jade body was completely exposed in the air of the wooden house. Scanning his perfect body with a slightly intoxicated eye, Zhu Liu stretched out his left hand and gently brushed it over his right shoulder behind his back: there, on the originally smooth and tender skin, a purple-black swollen palm print suddenly appeared.

"It's going to take a bath again."

Pouting slightly, Zhu Liu kicked off his shoes, picked out a few spirit grasses that exuded a strong flame aura from the mustard seed bag, and walked up the stairs of the wooden house barefoot.

There's one of Zhu Liu's favorites these days: the bathtub.

……

"I love bathing~My skin is good~" Half-lying lazily in a bathtub made of a whole piece of spiritual jade, Zhu Liu hummed an out-of-tune children's rhyme while playing with the fiery red lava of the spiritual grass in the bathtub with his little hands.

"Goo-goo-goo~"

Hmm, this is Zhu Liu suddenly buried his head in the magma and spit out a string of bubbles......

……

After a long time, Zhu Liu, who had had enough of playing, reluctantly got up from the lava. Not caring about the hot magma dripping from his body, Zhu Liu raised his beautiful legs slightly and stepped out of the bath in one step.

"The results are outstanding!"

With his back to a glass mirror, Zhu Liu, who was still naked, turned his head and looked at his bare back in the mirror with satisfaction, which had improved greatly after bathing: I saw that the palm prints that originally appeared purple-black had turned dark red, and the swelling on his skin had also subsided.

"Hmph, there's no injury that can't be done in a bath! If you have, soak it a few more times! ”

After publishing the "Declaration of Zhu Liu Bathing", Zhu Liu, who was in a bright mood, hummed a song with satisfaction and walked down the stairs.

Seems like you've forgotten to get dressed again? Forget it, it's pretty comfortable to be naked~

Hey, it seems that I've awakened some great hobby.

didn't care about these details, sitting cross-legged on the big bed in his bedroom, Zhu Liuzheng took out boxes of different materials from the mustard seed bag with bright eyes:

"From the fire red lotus, Gengjin sword essence, Vermilion Bird... Hmm, my own feathers......"

Looking at the dazzling array of materials, Zhu Liu, who was smiling, finally took out the harvest of his auction trip from the bag:

"Dengden Dengden—Flame Demon Bone Iron!"

Gently rubbing the materials with a soft palm, Zhu Liu's voice suddenly added a little emotion:

"It's been a year. Finally...... Is it time to be able to forge a sword? ”
