Chapter 249: The Auction Begins
Midnight.
Morning.
Above the wilderness.
A thick fog appeared out of thin air.
The oozing screams followed.
Not far from the mist, more than a dozen figures stood silently.
"Brother-in-law, this ghost market can't really be opened by ghosts, right?" Looking at the dark fog not far away, Su Jin asked Wang Xian.
"You ask me? Who do I ask? Besides, even if it's really a ghost, you don't plan to go in? β
Wang Xian replied with a smile.
These dozen people are Wang Xian, Qin Zheng, Jian Twenty-three, Su Jin, Shadow and others.
According to Sword Twenty-Three, they are here waiting for the opening of the ghost market.
And the fog in the distance is where the ghost city is located.
"Cut, I'll just ask, how can I not go in, and besides, what if the ghost is open? This girl killed not 10,000 ghosts, but 8,000! Su Jin looked disdainful.
"What? How do I remember who came in the first place, scared by a bride ghost? Wang Xian teased.
During the Midyear Festival, there was an activity of 'people scaring ghosts', Su Jin and Cheng Yao, two girls, clamoring to scare ghosts, but they were directly frightened by the bride ghost who appeared behind them and ran back home.
"It's not me! It's Yaoyao! β
Su Jin immediately retorted.
"What am I? Obviously you are! β
Cheng Yao fought back.
"Okay, don't fight, the ghost market is open, let's hurry over."
Wang Xian said a word to the two of them, and took the lead in walking towards the mist.
The closer I got to the mist, the more I felt a chill in my body, just like the feeling of being 'ghost' by a wild monster in the first place.
"Do you really want to go in?"
Approaching the mist, Su Jin swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Aren't you afraid?"
Wang Xian laughed.
"Humph! Who said I was scared! β
Su Jin snorted arrogantly, took a direct step, and entered the mist.
The fog was thick, and as soon as Su Jin entered, everyone couldn't see her.
"Let's go in too!"
Wang Xian shook his head and smiled, and quickly entered the mist.
He understands Su Jin's character, he is a dead duck with a hard mouth, and now he is probably frightened.
Sure enough!
As soon as Wang Xian entered the mist, a figure pounced directly on him.
"Aren't you afraid?"
Wang Xian asked such a question again.
"Who said I was scared? I'm not afraid! β
Su Jin said.
Wang Xian teased and said, "You're not afraid, why are you holding my arm so tightly?" β
Su Jin: "I do!" β
Wang Xian: ......
All right!
Very strong reason!
So that he was powerless to refute.
The figures of the others also appeared quickly, and when Su Jin saw it, he immediately let go of Wang Xian's arm and threw himself into Xuan Yue's 'embrace'.
Seeing this, Wang Xian turned around and walked towards the depths of the mist, and the others followed.
The fog seemed to have no end, and everyone walked for more than ten minutes, but there was still no change.
"Brother-in-law, are you leading the right way?"
Su Jin's voice of doubt sounded.
Everyone else also looked at Wang Xian.
"Just keep walking!"
Wang Xian said a word and moved on.
Ordinary people are estimated to have walked in the fog for so long and can't feel the changes in the surrounding environment, so they must have to give up.
But Wang Xian knew that it was the right thing to do.
"Oh."
Su Jin replied weakly.
After continuing to walk for half an hour, the fog began to thin out, and not far ahead, there was also a light.
Seeing the light not far away, Wang Xian breathed a sigh of relief, the news on the forum in his previous life finally did not pit him again.
"It's finally here......"
Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, the crowd quickened and hurried towards the light.
When they came to the light, a small market appeared in front of everyone.
"Guest, do you need clothes?"
Just when everyone was observing the ghost market, a figure quietly appeared beside everyone.
"Ahh
Su Jin subconsciously looked at the figure, and was suddenly frightened.
Everyone also looked at it, except for Wang Xian, Qin Zheng, and a few men, a few girls were not scared.
This is an old woman, but she is only half a head, and in those parts, you can still see beating brains and flowing blood.
"Hello old man, bring you a piece of clothing for each of you." Wang Xian calmed down his beating heart and said respectfully to the old woman.
"Fourteen people, a total of 140,000 gold coins!" The old woman said.
Wang Xian didn't have any nonsense, and directly took out 140,000 gold coins and handed them to the old woman.
Among the fourteen people, there are a total of ten acquaintances, including Wang Xian, and the rest are official people.
After the old woman saw the gold coin, half of her head was terrified, and her smile was even more terrifying.
After accepting the gold coin, the old woman took out some tulle and handed it to Wang Xian, who immediately took it.
The old woman smiled at Wang Xian again, and then turned to leave.
"One piece for each person, over the body, just like me."
Wang Xian distributed the tulle in his hand to everyone, and put the tulle on his head, and the falling tulle around him just completely covered Wang Xian's figure.
After the tulle completely covered Wang Xian's figure, outsiders looked at Wang Xian as if they had seen a vague ghost.
This is where the tulle comes in, to disguise identity, or more precisely, the identity of the living.
In the last life, there were many people who ate and didn't buy this kind of tulle, and after entering the ghost market, they were deceived or bullied by various 'ghosts' in the ghost market, and suffered a great loss.
"Wow! Brother-in-law, I really can't tell it's you! β
Su Jin looked at Wang Xian, who was like a ghost, and was very surprised.
Immediately afterwards, she was also covered with tulle.
Others did the same.
"After officially entering the ghost market for a while, if it is not necessary, don't talk to strange 'ghosts', and don't take off the veil on your body." Wang Xian instructed everyone.
"Hmm."
Everyone nodded in unison.
"Brother-in-law, I have a question?"
Su Jin shouted.
"Say!"
"We're all like ghosts now, what if we get separated?"
Wang Xian was stunned.
He really hadn't thought about it.
glanced at everyone, except for some differences in height, they basically look the same, and it is estimated that after entering the ghost market, more people will be the same, and it is indeed a little difficult to distinguish.
"Contact the team at any time in the voice, if someone is separated, then gather at the gate of the ghost market." Nangong Wu said.
"That's all it can be."
Wang Xian sighed lightly.
That's the only way to go.
After deciding on it, everyone walked towards the ghost market.
The ghost market is basically the same as the fang market in each city, and all kinds of things are sold.
However, the quality of the items in the ghost market is much higher than that of the items in the market.
For example, in the Fang Market, the equipment sold by 'NPC' is basically white and green equipment, and blue equipment is basically impossible.
In the ghost market, the worst equipment on the stalls is blue equipment, and occasionally one or two pieces of purple equipment can be seen, that is, legendary equipment.
It's just that these equipment are a bit demanding, and only people from the ghost clan can wear them, which makes everyone very depressed.
Due to the [control], although Wang Xian can wear these equipment, compared to the 'Heavenly Dragon Suit' on his body, the attributes of these equipment are really a little poor, so Wang Xian does not have any desire to buy them.
"Would you like to take a walk?"
Wang Xian asked everyone.
According to Jian XXIII, the auction will not start until two o'clock in the morning, and there is still a long time to go.
Instead of being idle, go and walk around.
Everyone nodded in unison.
They are curious about the ghost market, and since they are here, of course they want to visit it.
"Then let's go shopping for a while, wait for about half past one, and then gather at the auction place." Wang Xian said to everyone.
"Hmm."
Everyone nodded.
"Lao Wang, I'll see you later."
Sword Twenty-Three was the first to run away.
"Brother Wang, I'm going too."
Long Aotian also left.
"Wang Xian, my sister and I will also go shopping."
Xuan Ming and Xuan Yue left.
Then the others left.
In the end, Nangong Wu was left by Wang Xian's side, and even Su Jin and Cheng Yao trotted to a stall.
"Let's go shopping too!"
Wang Xian stretched out his right hand towards Nangong Wu.
"Good!"
Nangong Wu held Wang Xian's hand, and the two wandered around the ghost market.
The things in the ghost market are really amazing, and Wang Xian is also looking for something that suits him.
If it is equipped, he doesn't need it, but the skill book makes Wang Xian a little surprised.
"How do you sell this?"
In front of a stall, Wang Xian pointed to a skill book called [Ghost Shadow Hand] and ...... to the people setting up the stall Uh, it's supposed to be the ghost setting up the stall asked.
"Five hundred!"
"It's expensive!"
"Three hundred!"
"Give!"
Wang Xian took out three hundred gold coins and gave it to the ghost.
"Is the bargaining in the ghost market so arbitrary?"
Nangong Wu was a little stunned.
"Hahaha......"
Wang Xian laughed and explained: "Like the Fang Market and the Black Market, the price of any item has a lot of moisture. It's just that there is an unwritten rule for ghost market bargaining, you can bargain, but you can only cut it once, and if you cut the price so that the person selling the thing does not agree, then you are disqualified from buying the item. β
"I see."
Nangong Wu nodded lightly.
Leaving the stall, Wang Xian bought a skill book called [Ghost Shadow Step] in front of another stall.
Compared to the [Ghost Shadow Hand], the price of [Ghost Shadow Step] is very expensive, a full 30,000 gold coins.
γGhost Walkγ
When activated, gain a 10% chance to dodge for 10 seconds.
Cast Time: Instantaneous.
Mana Cost: 300MP.
Cooldown: 3600 seconds.
Learn some requirements: Oni, Assassin.
A state-like skill.
WANG XIAN IS ACTUALLY VERY UNFAMILIAR WITH THE ATTRIBUTE OF 'DODGE', HE JUST KNOWS THAT THIS IS A VERY 'BUG' ATTRIBUTE.
Disables enemies from attacking you, or dodges.
It's like in the middle of a battle, the opponent shoots an arrow, and this arrow should have hit you 100%, but if you dodge and trigger the dodge at this moment, then the arrow that hit you will inexplicably miss you.
Not only that, dodge can dodge all damage, including area magic, which is why Wang Xian said that 'dodge' is a BUG attribute.
Although [Ghost Shadow Step] only has a 10% chance of dodging, sometimes, it can really change your life against the sky.
After Wang Xian and Nangong Wu walked around for a while, they didn't find anything satisfactory again, so they went to the place where the auction was located.
After a little waiting, the others arrived.
If you want an auction in the ghost market, there are requirements, and as for what the requirements are, Wang Xian is not clear.
Stepping into the door of the auction means that you can enter, if you can't step in, then you will naturally not be eligible.
"Let's go!"
Looking at the door of the auction, Wang Xian also raised it in his heart.
Will he be able to go in?
I guess it works!
With a nervous mood, Wang Xian did not have any obstacles, and directly stepped into the door of the second meeting.
Nangong Wu, Su Jin, Cheng Yao, Qin Zheng and others also entered.
But Xuan Yue and Xuan Ming were stopped at the takeaway.
In addition to this, three of the four official officials were stopped outside.
In this regard, everyone has no choice.
After exchanging words in the team's voice, Wang Xian, Qin Zheng and the others entered the auction.
The auction that does not look big from the outside is extremely large after entering the meeting, and it is initially estimated that this auction can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
There are also different types of seats in the auction, ordinary rooms, luxury rooms, and private rooms.
In this regard, Wang Xian naturally asked for a private room.
The private room is very expensive, 100,000 gold coins.
Moreover, the private room is very small, only about 10 square meters.
When everyone entered, it was a little crowded.
However, the crowd did not say anything, and waited quietly for the auction to begin.
It didn't take long for the auction to begin.
A figure appeared on the table in the center of the auction.
Wang Xian and the others in the private room showed surprised expressions.
They knew this figure standing on the stage.
It was the old woman who sold them tulle before entering the ghost market.
"This auction is really boring, and it is such a scary ghost to preside over it." Su Jin complained.
Everyone nodded.
This old woman presided over the auction, but it made everyone's enthusiasm lose a lot.
Everyone was uncomfortable, but the auction was still going on normally.
The same thing was auctioned off, and the people didn't buy anything because it didn't suit them.
Until, a piece of scale appeared.
This one fish scale, according to the old woman's words, after using this fish scale, it can be transformed into a sea tribe.
"Sea Clan?"
Wang Xian's brows furrowed slightly.
In the previous life, there was also the appearance of the Sea Clan, and it was on New Year's Day of the second year of digitization.
At that time, countless cities near the sea were killed by the Sea Clan, and countless people died.
Just as the people on land were about to start fighting back, the sea tribes disappeared without a trace, just as they came.
After that, the Sea Clan never appeared again.
"What's wrong? Need something like this? Or is there something wrong with the Sea Clan? β
Nangong Wu saw Wang Xian's frowning brows, and asked softly in Wang Xian's ear.
"No problem, let's see how much this scale costs!"
Wang Xian shook his head.
The matter of the sea clan can be regarded as a pain in the hearts of countless Blue Star people, but compared to the land, the sea has become more mysterious and dangerous after being digitized!
