CHAPTER VII CHAPTER XXVIII
"It seems that no one present dares to offend the top twenty prison masters, and this secondary soul stone seems to be inevitable, but fifty high-grade ghost crystals are about the same. ★ ," Lian Yuxin muttered, but the old man below didn't look good, after all, the ape's approach violated the rules of the auction.
"Hurry up, old man, hammer, haha......" The ape, sitting alone in the private room, said loudly, ignoring the word 'rules'.
"Fifty for the third time, deal!" The old man sighed slightly and knocked the hammer head, in fact, the nightmare brought this time did not have any ability, it was completely physical. And in the powerful prison department, the only one who has the ability to match it is the ape, and the guide is completely at his disposal today.
"Haha!"
The ape laughed, directly smashed the special material glass in front of him with his body, and blasted open the lattice cage in the center of the field with his bare hands, pressing the internal nightmare to the ground, both in strength and momentum.
"Bring it!" The ape stretched out his other free hand and pulled out the resentment crystals from his chest and swallowed them into his abdomen. The nightmare that was pressed to the ground gradually turned into dust and dissipated into the air as the core was peeled off. The ape laughed and quickly left the auction.
"This guy is too arrogant." Zhang Chen frowned, and couldn't help but feel a little disgusted with this person in his heart. However, the strength of others is here, and he can only stare dryly.
"There is no way to be strong, if Master is here today, this guy will not only sit in the position in a proper manner. Forget it, let's see what the last thing is, it may be more precious than the secondary soul stone. ”
After the ape disturbance calmed down at the auction site, the old man said slowly, "I'm very sorry, but there is no security in the monthly auction of this auction. This is also a last resort. At the annual auction, the Warden will be present in person, and this kind of thing is not a thing. Waiting a long time, let's announce the last item of the auction. ”
The old man clapped his hands, and a staff member slowly walked out, but the thing was sandwiched between two fingers, a glass vial no more than a centimeter high. Inside it is stored a drop of grayish-white viscous liquid.
"What's that?" Zhang Chen's flesh and bones could feel that a drop of gray-white liquid as if it were some kind of blood, but his own flesh and bones could not establish control.
"I don't know, spiritual power can't capture any information, listen to the speaker's introduction."
Not only Zhang Chen, but all the prison envoys present, including the fifty-second ranked aunt, all showed puzzled expressions.
"This is also an item that an adult commissioned us to sell at auction, and as you can see, the bottle contains the blood of a powerhouse of the Zero Insect Realm. As for the use, there are two types of use that are known for the time being. First, if any of you are an insect master. As long as this drop of blood is completely absorbed, it is inevitable to improve the main soul by one level, and it can also increase the matching degree of the main soul. Second, it is used to nourish ghost insects, which is enough to make a low-level ghost insect jump into a high-level ghost worm. ”
"The starting price of blood is eighty high-grade ghost crystals, ten one-plus, and the auction starts now."
There were dozens of prison envoys of the insect main soul present, but eighty high-grade ghost crystals. They probably won't even be able to take out eighty mid-grade ghost crystals.
"The price is too high. It's enough to shoot the price of a secondary soul stone, but it's really not worth it. Lian Yuxin muttered.
However, Zhang Chen on the side was stunned. The blood of the powerhouse in the insect world, after this thing left in Tianhua, Zhang Chen had already given up looking for it for the time being. I didn't expect to come across it here, but the price was too expensive.
"Well...... Senior Sister Yuxin, do you have eighty high-grade ghost crystals? Zhang Chen asked with some embarrassment.
"This time I was supposed to bring you to participate in the Heart Refinement. How can you carry so much money with you? Besides, eighty high-grade ghost crystals is a lot of money, and the total assets I have obtained from my master for so long are only one hundred high-grade ghost crystals. Is there any use for you with this thing? ”
"Then forget it......" Zhang Chen knew that this money was not a small amount, so it was better to think of other ways by himself.
"It can't be the ghost worm, right?" Lian Yuxin asked, and Zhang Chen on the side nodded slightly.
"The price is ridiculously high, and I don't think anyone will buy it. If nothing else. This thing will be in this year's annual auction, and I'll figure it out for you when the time comes. ”
Sure enough, as Lian Yuxin said, no one present could afford such a high price.
"Since there are no bids, this item will be sold again at the annual auction in ten months. This auction is over, thank you for coming. ”
After the old man finished speaking, everyone took a stand one after another, and Zhang Chen also followed Lian Yuxin back to the Hanging City from the passage connecting the Imperial Capital Hanging City in the Spirit City, who knew that the moment he just arrived at the bottom of the Hanging City, Lian Yuxin's face changed.
"Master sent a message to me to take you back to the Shenhou Mansion to see him immediately."
"Are you in such a hurry to see me?" Zhang Chen expected that Shenhou would summon him, but he didn't expect to be in such a hurry, "Senior Sister Yuxin, do you know what is going on?" ”
"I don't know, but listening to Master's tone, there should be something important, I'll take you back quickly."
Lian Yuxin took Zhang Chenli to the middle exit of the Hanging City, because the teleportation array from the Shenhou Mansion to the Judgment Tower was a one-way trip, so if the two of them wanted to return to the Shenhou Mansion, they needed to take a huge motorboat at the sky ferry outside the Judgment Tower.
It was the first time for Zhang Chen to ride such a giant vehicle, which seemed to be a huge and slow motorboat, but it traveled faster than the speed of sound. And standing on both sides of the motorboat, you can overlook the extremely spectacular cloud scenery below, but it takes ten minutes to arrive at the gate of the Shenhou Mansion.
"Zhang Chen, come to see me on the second floor of my mansion. Lian Yuxin went back to the room to rest first. ”
The moment the two stepped into the Shenhou Mansion, they were immediately transmitted by the Shenhou, and Lian Yuxin signaled Zhang Chen to pay attention to his words and deeds when getting along with the Shenhou with his eyes, and then walked back to his room.
"I don't know what's the matter with God looking for me in such a hurry...... Could it be that it is still about the liquid in my body? ”
Zhang Chen was slightly worried in his heart, and after hesitating up to the second floor to see the hall, he looked at Zhang Chen with a solemn expression behind his back with his hands behind his back.
"Did something happen to you in prison?" Shen Hou asked in a deep voice.
"It's true that the heart refining is different from everyone else."
"Let's talk about it in detail!"
At the request of Shen Hou, Zhang Chen informed Shen Hou of the detailed process of heart refining, but concealed Kou Ran's situation. After listening to it, he thought for a moment, and then suddenly said something that Zhang Chen couldn't believe
"Would you like to be my apprentice?"
"Ah......" Zhang Chen couldn't react for a while.
"You are very good in terms of spiritual power, the old man can grant you a lot of things, are you willing to worship the old man as a teacher?"
"Apprentice to meet Master......" Zhang Chen knew that the opportunity was not easy to come by, and immediately knelt down on one knee and said very respectfully.
"Haha...... Very good. In this case, I am relieved to be a teacher. Do you know why the teacher is in such a hurry to summon you back? After seeing Zhang Chen's agreement, Shen Hou changed his previous solemn face and immediately put a smile on his face.
"Well, I don't know."
"For there is an adult who wants to summon you, and he knows that you have a temporary place to stay with me, let me inform you."
"Your Excellency?!" Zhang Chen didn't understand what kind of character could be called an adult by the gods.
"Since you're my apprentice, I don't have to worry about that old guy kidnapping you. Go down now, and come back to me later. Go up to the teleportation array standing there. As soon as Shen Hou stroked his sleeve, Zhang Chen's whole consciousness swayed, and he appeared in the Forbidden City 10,000 meters below.
"Come with me, kid."
Zhang Chen didn't feel any sense at all, and a crumpled hand rested on his shoulder. Suddenly, the space around him began to fluctuate slightly, and the next second he came to a quaint alley full of people. In front of him, it seems that behind a small restaurant, a chef with a towel on his shoulder is sweating profusely stir-frying in an iron pot.
"Huh...... Wu Lao. Your old man is too anxious today, right? Now that our restaurant is at its peak, I don't have time to play chess with you. The thick-skinned man in front of him recognized Old Wu at a glance.
"Golden fat man, the old man is here to eat today. Stir-fry two specialty dishes for me at will, and we'll go in first. ”
"Ouch. Old man Wu, it seems that you are making a lot of money. Okay...... the guy looked up at Zhang Chen beside Wu Lao, "Could this be your grandson?" He still looks quite handsome, come in and sit, everyone is an old acquaintance. I'll give you a stack of peanuts and your old man's favorite two-pot head later. ”
Wu Lao smiled and took Zhang Chen into this ordinary restaurant, it was dinner time, many of the workers in the store were migrant workers working nearby, after a day of fatigue, come to the restaurant to eat some side dishes, drink some wine to treat themselves.
"Let's sit in the corner, I need to ask you something."
"Okay."
The two sat in a very inconspicuous corner, Wu Lao waved his hand, and the noise around them disappeared. It's like there's just the two of you.
"What happened in the end, tell you the truth." Wu Lao's words seem to be an understatement, but they are actually heartfelt.
"Well...... A man from the Realm had a few words with me, telling me that if I had the opportunity to go to Zero, I should go to the Abyss of Sins to find him. Zhang Chen thought for a while and told the truth, if his guess was right, Wu Lao Shi in front of him was a prison captain.
"Meow? The Abyss of Ten Thousand Sins? …… Well, is that person called Kouran? ”
"Yes."
"What is he looking for from you?"
"He said at the time that time was tight, so he didn't make it very clear. It's just that it has a lot to do with my life and death. Then the space he constructed collapsed......" Zhang Chen stabilized his mind and did not say anything about the five nightmares.
"Is that so? ......," Wu Lao said softly, slightly suspicious.
"Old man Wu and your grandson have such a happy chat, hot fat sausage and shredded pork in Beijing sauce, plus a plate of peanuts and two pot heads with it." The appearance of the gang immediately alleviated Zhang Chen's situation. (To be continued......)
