Chapter 69: The Auction
In the corner of the hall, hundreds of warriors held their breath.
"Let's go!" A soft cheer came suddenly.
As soon as he spoke, the air flow on the circle spun violently, and hundreds of figures twisted a few times before disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Being within the scope of the formation, Lin Hao just felt that his head was slightly dizzy, and after his eyes sparked, the world changed in front of him in an instant.
"Ah Hao, this is a special teleportation array, called the Sky Breaking Array, which can break through the space film." Tu Yan glanced around a few times, looked up and laughed.
When the hundreds of warriors around arrived here, they scattered in all directions.
It is a large space with a large stone attic, which resembles a hollow elliptical cylinder, with stairs connecting each floor up and down.
The design of the entire building is bizarre, completely contrary to scientific principles, and the imagination of its designers can be described as wild.
Each floor resembles an oval-shaped grandstand, with countless seats arranged in a trapezoidal shape, a shape somewhat similar to that of the Colosseum, but more than a hundred times larger.
Lin Hao looked around and found that the highest layer under his feet was underfoot. Looking down, you can vaguely see a few vague outlines, and at the bottom there seems to be a huge platform, on which are placed ten small stone tables, and more than a dozen figures are busy back and forth.
This circular grandstand is made of stone and is filled with human figures. Thousands of warriors in different costumes shouted and talked to each other, looking extremely noisy.
There are rows of maids standing in the aisle, and every time a newly teleported warrior asks, they will patiently guide the direction of the seats.
The seats are filled with fruit pastries for you to pick up for your own use.
The surrounding decorations are quite luxurious, and the rows of maids are also pretty, which makes people feel pleasing to the eye.
Outside this huge stand, there is a hazy film wrapping it, on which it is full of color, and from time to time several mysterious and complex lines flash.
"Ah Hao, this is the Tianzi Auction Hall, and only lone travelers who have cultivated to a high level, or large and medium-sized forces, are eligible to enter. The space of Sumeru here is quite huge, temporarily opened up by the formation, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people. ”
Uncle Tuyan took the black jade invitation, greeted everyone, and took the lead and walked straight down: "The auction is about to start, follow me." ”
Lin Hao glanced at each other and hurriedly followed.
The group went straight down the stairs, and a hazy light instantly shrouded them. When I looked closely, it turned out that the walls were inlaid with glowing star stones.
Countless warriors with swords and swords on their backs spread out their bodies and passed by them.
In the middle of the night, Tu Yan and a few people walked to the middle floor.
Raise your eyes and take a closer look, this place is full of all kinds of warriors, about the people of large and medium-sized forces, and there are many lone travelers in the corner, all of them are extraordinary.
The few people glanced at each other and went straight to find a place to sit down.
"It's a big place, with tens of thousands of people, how can it be auctioned?" Lin Hao was surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but look around.
Rows of stone benches were placed underneath him, and there was a card slot on the right armrest, on which soft animal skins were covered.
The hundreds of stone benches next to it are full of warriors, including Taoist monks, swordsmen and swordsmen, and all kinds of people.
"Hao, there are ten floors in this space, which are divided into ten auction areas, and our floor is the fifth auction area."
Tu Yan glanced at the other side a few times and said in a low voice: "These people are either tribal stewards, or elders of medium-sized sects, and there are many lone travelers who are strong in cultivation. ”
"Hmm." Lin Hao nodded, reached out and picked up the pastries on the table, and nibbled on a few bites.
Several people looked at each other, quietly waiting for the auction to begin.
Dozens of empty seats next to him gradually filled with figures, and some warriors came over behind them.
"Little brother." Suddenly, there was an eerie voice in my ears.
"Huh?" Lin Hao turned his head, and there was a middle-aged Taoist priest with a green face sitting next to him, who was looking at him with strange eyes at this time.
Those eyes seemed to be full of evil magic, and the pupils inside turned into deep whirlpools that swirled continuously, trying to pull people's souls.
The sound of "creaking" came, and there seemed to be countless poisonous insects crawling in the ears, making people feel a burst of sweat hair standing on end.
"It's weird!" Lin Hao woke up suddenly, quickly turned his head, and patted his chest with palpitations.
"Little brother, you're very good." The middle-aged Taoist priest's eyes turned eerily white, grinning sharp fangs, and laughing strangely.
With a loud "click", a long knife flashed, instantly inserting into the middle of the two seats.
"Old ghost, this is the old lady's man, you'd better get away, or my knife will be merciless." Li Erniang looked at her coldly, and a faint anger came out of her body.
"It's easy to say...... it's easy to say" The insect Daoist was stunned for a moment, got up and sat back with a smile, and his eyes flashed with different colors from time to time.
"Ah Hao, that insect Dao person is not good at stubble, he is insidious and cunning, and he is the best at driving Gu worms, if you encounter it in the future, remember to stay away." Tu Yan pulled Lin Hao and carefully admonished him.
"Hmm." Lin Hao nodded hurriedly, only to feel a cold sweat behind him, and thought: This person is really weird, his eyes seem to be able to hook the soul, and he accosted me today for no reason, I'm afraid I don't have a good heart.
The people around them sat silently, like sculptures, one by one without saying a word, just closing their eyes and recuperating.
Suddenly, there were a few "knocks", and the desolate bell rang slowly.
The eyes of the people on the left and right suddenly opened, and they quickly sat upright, looking straight ahead.
The quiet atmosphere in the space was broken in an instant, and there was a sudden sound of discussion from the upper and lower floors.
With a "bang", in mid-air, a huge pillar of light suddenly lit up, and the light flickered mixed with the sound of rustling wind, like the collision of air currents.
"What is this?" Lin Hao's eyes narrowed, and his face was full of thought.
Tu Yan next to him smiled, picked up the black jade invitation, and inserted it into the card slot of the stone bench. The few people next to him didn't speak, just stared straight at the pillar of light.
In mid-air, there was a "boom", as if the calm lake water was thrown into a boulder, and the air in the pillar of light trembled violently, like water waves, which kept rippling, which looked extremely strange.
"Knock knock" sounded three times, and the quaint and desolate bell stopped instantly.
The colors on the pillar of light floated, just like ripples blowing on the surface of the water, and the picture slowly became clear.
"It's ...... Lingering Stone! Lin Hao's mind flashed with inspiration, and his heart was extremely shocked.
As he was pondering, the huge pillar of light in mid-air was silent, and the image on it slowly became extremely clear.
In the virtual shadow in mid-air, a black stone platform gradually emerged, and next to it stood an old man with a white beard, holding a wooden box in his hand, and a spirit grass that resembled a human shape lay inside, and billowing flames came out of the leaves.
Lin Hao was shocked, the image that appeared in mid-air turned out to be the scene of the bottom platform of the stone building!
Coughing a few times, and after the surrounding chatter subsided, the old man opened the box and explained carefully to the neighborhood: "This thing is called Fire Spirit Grass, and it likes to grow in the depths of volcanic magma. The starting price is 30 crystals, and each price increase shall not be less than 10 crystals. ”
As soon as the words fell, the picture in mid-air turned, and the old man held the wooden box and turned around, so that people could see the spirit grass clearly.
"Hmph, this thing is good." Li Erniang touched the big knife.
"With so far away and so many crowds, how do you get an accurate quote?" Lin Hao looked over puzzled.
"Ah Hao, the quotation depends on it, I'm optimistic. The final transaction price of this spirit grass is estimated to be very high. Tu Yan glanced at Lin Hao, and touched the black jade invitation card on the stone bench with his hand, and his true anger was lightly stirred.
"35 Xuanjing, is there a higher price? Okay, that friend out of 40 Xuanjing, this 50 Xuanjing ......" The light and shadow in mid-air flickered, and the old man held the wooden box and kept quoting in his mouth.
"This black jade invitation can be quoted if it touches the true qi?" Lin Hao was stunned.
The nearby warriors all had red eyes, and they vigorously used their true qi to lightly provoke the invitation, as if they were bound to get it.
