Chapter 060: Auction Event (2)
Two days later, Li Qing and Liu Ke'er rode to Kamikaze City.
Kamikaze Castle is the county seat of Funing County, the largest castle in the territory, and it is also the base of Kamikazemon.
There is a kamikaze mountain in the city, which occupies most of the area of the city. From a distance, it was more of a mountain than a city, but a wall built around it.
In fact, there was originally only one kamikaze mountain here, but as people settled at the foot of the mountain, gathered together, and slowly grew larger and larger, so the kamikaze gate built a ring of walls around it, forming the largest castle in the county.
This is a combination of the sect and the secular world.
Since it is a mountain city, you can imagine how huge this city is, and it is probably several times larger than Dongchang City. After Li Qing saw the city, he couldn't help but be shocked, but he quickly calmed down. As his knowledge gradually broadened, he no longer made a fuss.
There was still a day before the auction, and after the two entered the city, they first found an inn and settled down. Li Qing used his eavesdropping skills again, listened to the conversations and discussions of the people around him, and got a lot of useful information.
Tomorrow's auction will be held at a kamikaze auction house. Since this auction house is already known as a kamikaze, it was set up by the kamikaze gate, and the background is strong and the credibility is guaranteed.
Before the auction began, the city was already overcrowded, and there were constantly warriors pouring in, and even one or two innate powerhouses could occasionally be seen among them, which couldn't help but smack.
Li Qing went to buy two black cloak robes, handed one to Liu Ke'er, and said, "With so many people here, maybe the people from the Wang family of Dongchang City will also come to participate in the auction event." In order to avoid being recognized by them, we will wear these two robes to the event so that we can hide our identities. ”
Of course, there is another important reason, which is to cover Liu Keer's peerless face, but he didn't say it.
"It's ugly!" Liu Ke'er made a bitter little face, revealing a pitiful look. However, under Li Qing's gaze, she was quickly defeated, and depressedly wrapped the black robe around her body, and a black-robed strange man appeared.
Li Qing looked at it for a while, and the huge robe not only hid her appearance, but even her graceful figure looked bloated. I'm afraid that even if an acquaintance is standing in front of me, I won't be able to recognize her appearance.
The next morning, the quinquennial auction began.
Li Qing and Liu Ke'er were dressed in black robes, blending in the crowd and walking towards the auction venue. The auction house is very large and grandiose, large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people. Li Qing looked up at the huge auction hall in front of him, and couldn't help but let out an exclamation in his mouth.
At the door stood a row of heavily armed black-clothed warriors with indifferent faces, all of whom turned out to be martial artists of the tenth layer of the day after tomorrow, exuding a powerful aura. They watched the crowd vigilantly, dutifully guarding the auction house.
If someone tries to make trouble, it will be quite miserable. Any martial artist of the tenth layer of the day after tomorrow is a strong person elsewhere, but here he is just a gatekeeper. It can be seen that the foundation and strength of the Kamikaze Sect are really remarkable, and it is worthy of being a powerful sect that rules a county.
To enter the auction house, an entrance fee of three spirit stones is required. This is to prevent people from fishing in the water, or idle people from running in to watch the excitement. Only those who really want to participate in the auction will be reluctant to pay this entrance fee to enter it.
Three spirit stones are a lot for martial artists in the outside world. Li Qing learned that the spirit stones in the outside world were very precious, and the warriors were eager to break one spirit stone and use it as two, which was evident from this.
Li Qing naturally didn't care too much about the three spirit stones, so he casually paid them to the doorman and went in. After a long passage, you enter the magnificent auction hall. The environment inside is a little dim and very noisy, and the sound of the waves of people is overwhelming.
The two of them were stunned, they didn't expect such a scene here.
"There are so many people, and it really deserves to be a five-year event. The two couldn't help but sigh.
At this point, the auction has not really begun. Li Qing took Liu Ke'er to find a remote location, then sat down, his eyes scanned the surroundings, familiar with the environment.
There is a circular platform in the center of the venue, which is used to host the auction.
Not long after Li Qing sat down, another group of people walked into the auction hall from the passage. The first young man, dressed in purple, with a face like a crown of jade, was extremely handsome.
Whispers suddenly came from the surrounding crowd.
"Look, this is the person from Ziyun Villa, and the young man at the head is the young owner, a handsome figure of the younger generation, who is very good at practicing the Purple Cloud Technique. ”
"Ziyun Mountain Villa is located in Zhongshan County, far away, how did you come here?"
"What's so strange about this? It's here to visit, and it's from far afield. ”
While we were talking, a lot of people came in, one after another, in front of everyone.
"Yunzhou City!Taihao Sword Sect!Battle King Sect!Iron Spear Gate ......"
"The big forces in Yunzhou are basically here, it's really lively, hehe!"
"It's worth the trip, there will definitely be a battle in this auction. ”
Instead of sitting in the noisy and crowded hall, these powerful people went up to the VIP room on the second floor.
I don't know how long it took, but when all parties had basically arrived, the auction finally began. I heard a crisp bell ringing, which spread throughout the entire auction hall, and everyone instantly fell silent.
A fat old man with a smile on his face walked up to the round table in the middle of the auction, arched his hand towards everyone, and said, "I guess everyone has been waiting a little impatiently." In that case, I won't talk any more nonsense. ”
The old man in front of him turned out to be a strong man in the middle of the congenital stage! He must be a Dharma protector-level figure in the Kamikaze Gate, and only such a strong man can control the field.
He looked at the crowd in the dark crowd with a smile, and his vague gaze swept over the many forces sitting in the VIP room, and then announced loudly: "Now I announce, the Kamikaze City auction has officially begun!"
After he had said this, he arched his hand, withdrew from the round platform without stopping, and disappeared in front of everyone.
Then came another gray-haired old man, who was obviously the one who was actually presiding over the auction today. Behind him stood a beautiful maid with a plate in her hand, covered with a cloth, for some unknown reason.
The old man greeted everyone first, and then said, "Then the auction will begin." As the first auction item at the beginning of the day, it will naturally not be too bad. Look at it, everybody!" he said, lifting the cloth from the plate, revealing its contents.
It turned out to be a long sword with a black body, reflecting the cold light of the forest in the light of the light. The old man began to introduce: "This sword is called the Black Water Sword, and it is modeled after the ancient artifact Xuanshui Divine Sword. Most importantly, this is a broken spiritual weapon!"
A mutilated artifact!
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the auction hall.
Everyone gasped, the word spirit weapon was really shocking! A spirit weapon, that is enough to become the treasure of a great sect, it can be seen that it is precious.
After being shocked for a moment, the people in the venue came back to their senses, staring at the spiritual weapon on the stage with blazing eyes, all wanting to keep it for themselves.
"It's a pity it's mutilated!" Even so, this sword is still precious enough to attract the hearts of countless people.
In fact, if it weren't for the mutilation, who would take out the artifact and sell it?
Seeing the shocked gazes of everyone, the old man seemed to be very satisfied with this effect, and continued to introduce: "Actually, this spirit sword is complete, but there are many cracks on the sword body, which are easy to break, and need to be repaired by yourself. If you can invite a swordsmith and repair it properly, I am afraid that it will not be much worse than the original power. He began to use his three-inch incorruptible tongue, blowing this thing into the sky, as if it could really be compared to a good spiritual weapon.
"This spirit sword was obtained by a certain martial artist unintentionally, it is a relic of the ancients, and the origin is innocent, you don't need to worry, you can buy it with confidence. So, now it's time to bid. The starting price of this sword is 10,000 spirit stones!"
As soon as this sky-high starting price came out, the auction hall suddenly became much quieter. Obviously, many people simply don't have the strength to buy this treasure, after all, ten thousand spirit stones, the entire net worth of the innate powerhouse is not so much, only those big forces can afford it.
"A broken spiritual weapon?" Li Qing muttered to himself, but he didn't have much interest. After all, he already had the Heavenly Sword in his hand, so he didn't need this sword at all.
As for Liu Ke'er, that's even more unnecessary, the Taiyin Divine Sword is better than it, I don't know how many times!
Under the sky-high price of this ten thousand spirit stones, the scene was a little cold for a while, and no one quoted.
The old man on the stage was not worried, still smiling. He knew very well the attraction of spiritual weapons, and there would definitely be many forces who would be tempted, but they were just waiting and watching.
Sure enough, this meeting didn't last long, and someone took the lead in quoting: "Eleven thousand spirit stones!"
"Twelve thousand spirit stones!" soon someone followed suit.
"Thirteen thousand spirit stones!"
The scramble began, scattered voices sounded one after another, people continued to quote, and the price was slowly rising.
"Twenty thousand spirit stones!" At this time, a majestic voice sounded, raising the price by a large margin. Everyone saw that it was someone from the War King Sect who made an offer. The high price of 20,000 spirit stones suddenly discouraged those who had no background, and only those with great power could continue to compete.
"Twenty-one thousand spirit stones!" the people from Ziyun Mountain Villa immediately followed. It seems to have kicked off the prelude to the war, and many big forces have begun to make moves.
"Twenty-two thousand spirit stones!"
"Twenty-three thousand spirit stones!"
......
In the end, the price was pulled up to 30,000 spirit stones, which was quoted by the people of Ziyun Villa, and it seemed that they were determined to win, and at this time, there was not much power left in the bidding. After all, a mutilated spiritual weapon, whose value is unknown, is not worth the price they have to pay.
"Forty thousand spirit stones!" A fluttering voice sounded, and the people of the Taihao Sword Sect quoted an extremely high price.
Raising 10,000 spirit stones at once, it showed their extremely high determination. Obviously, with such a high price, it is impossible for anyone to follow it anymore.
The Taihao Sword Sect is a sect that specializes in using swords, and it naturally has a soft spot for sword weapons, and it is reasonable to buy a mutilated spirit sword at a high price this time.
