Chapter 049: Bone Knife
"It is definitely not possible to raise the grade of the spiritual weapon in such a rude manner! Our Bailing Auction House has always been based on honesty and quality, and we can't gamble with our reputation! Even if the spiritual weapon is snatched away by the demons, it is because our own security work is not done well, and we can't deceive customers!" In the office behind the back of the auction house on the fifth floor, an old man with white hair pointed to a dozen or so large and small wooden boxes on the table, almost roaring and roaring. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was a small office, and in addition to the white-haired old man, there was also a middle-aged talent in strong clothes and a beautiful young woman in her thirties.
These three people are the leaders of the Shushan branch of Bailing Auction House.
The young woman's name is Su Qiao, and she is the general manager of the Shushan branch. The middle-aged man's name is Luo Zheng, who cultivated in the early stage of the Sancai Realm, and is the captain of the guard of the branch. The old man's surname was Chen, and he was a seventh-grade refiner, who was responsible for identifying the level of spiritual weapons, as well as repairing damaged spiritual weapons.
Regarding the refiner Chen's categorical opposition, Su Qiao smiled.
Chen Lao was so angry that he blew his beard: "Among these things, the highest is the nine-grade spiritual weapon, and the most inferior one, what kind of bone knife, it is just a mortal product, it is better than a pig-killing knife!
Luo Zheng also laughed, looked at Su Qiao, the woman nodded at him, and then he excitedly pulled Chen Lao and said, "Old Chen, you are so excited! Although you are a master of the cultivation weapon, you are no stranger to the battle seal, right?
When ordinary spiritual weapons are transported, a formation seal will be engraved on the box to soften and lock the space inside the box to prevent bumps and damage. Therefore, under the excitement of Chen Lao, he only relied on his spiritual power to perceive the grade of the spiritual weapon, and he didn't pay much attention to the array seal on the box.
Hearing this, Chen Lao carefully observed the boxes, his face changed suddenly, and then he reached out and touched the boxes, full of inspiration.
"This, this...... This is the Locking Spirit Seal!"
Chen Lao suddenly shouted, his face was full of joy that could not be concealed, he finally understood, it turned out that this was the case!
Originally, on the way to transport spiritual weapons from the spiritual capital this time, they were ambushed by demons, and although there were not many casualties among the guards, all the valuable spiritual weapons were looted. Lao Chen was still wondering why the eldest lady Su Qiao and the captain of the guard, Luo Zheng, did not look annoyed, but smiled, and now the mystery has finally been solved.
It turned out that Su Qiao had already learned the ambush information of the demons, and asked people to prepare the Soul Locking Array Seal and the Living Spirit Array Seal in advance. The wooden box of the Soul Formation Seal is a low-level spiritual weapon, and with the powerful spiritual power fluctuations released by the Array Seal, people will mistakenly think that it is a high-level spiritual weapon. And the wooden box of the Locking Spirit Array Seal is a truly valuable high-grade spiritual weapon. Although the demons were fierce, after all, they were acting on the earth plane, and they would inevitably come and go like the wind, and they didn't have much time to check and fight, so they quickly snatched the low-level spirit weapons sealed by the living spirit array, but the real high-level spirit weapons were safe and sound.
"The eldest lady is really a girl! Old Decay admires!" Lao Chen finally smiled.
"Don't worry! Let Chen Lao come here, but it's really for you to appreciate a spiritual weapon, you see!" Su Qiao saw that Lao Chen understood, and didn't explain too much, but walked to Lao Chen's side and opened a simple and unpretentious dilapidated wooden box, which was the box containing the bone knife that Lao Chen said just now that it was better to kill pigs.
The black wooden box was opened, but it did not burst out as promised.
I saw that an ivory-colored bone knife was lying in the box, plain and unremarkable, without the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power.
"It's ordinary, huh, no......"
Lao Chen first made an assertion, and then quickly overturned it himself, and then continued to appreciate it, but he was unable to reach a conclusion.
Su Qiao also smiled bitterly and said, "At the beginning, this was originally a mortal product, and we carved a living soul array seal on its wooden box, which can make it emit spiritual power fluctuations like a high-grade spiritual weapon. But, as you can see, this wooden box and weapon did not emit any spiritual power fluctuations. It's simply more low-key and restrained than the wooden box engraved with the seal of the lock spirit array!"
"Maybe it's because the formation seal hasn't been engraved!" Lao Chen also shook his head, but concluded, "This must be an ordinary product, and there is nothing special about it, like the shoddy work of the wilderness mountain people, and it can't even be called a weapon." ”
Su Qiao nodded, and then said: "Call the old gentleman to come just to determine whether this bone knife is different, since it is very ordinary, then take it to auction together." Although it's a little worse, it's supposed to be the green leaves of these high-grade spirit weapons, and there are too many green leaves lost this time, so let it be filled indiscriminately, anyway, no one who comes to the auction house will buy this kind of thing, just set the lowest grade. ”
Lao Chen also understood, nodded, and pasted grade appraisals on each wooden box and printed his seal.
After a while, the beautiful waitresses came in and went to the auction house to set up the wooden boxes.
......
Jiang Ling was a little disappointed, he thought that the auction house should be the kind of auction house where everyone bids together, and the one with the highest price wins in the end. Unexpectedly, this auction house only holds a real auction on the first day of each month, and it is usually a simple bidding and purchase method, which is also normal, auctioned every day, where can there be so many good things?
Although disappointed, this also made Jiang Ling breathe a sigh of relief.
If it was really an auction, then he was really not sure to buy the bone knife that the Bone Dragon Spirit was optimistic about, and it was relatively better to bid for it. The so-called bidding purchase is that the auction house will display all the items sold, so that people can watch and compare at will, and when they meet what they like, they will stick their bidding stickers next to the items, and after a few laps, compare the prices, and the one with the highest price buys.
Although this is not as lively as direct auction, it is much more efficient and relatively free.
Jiang Ling only hoped that everyone would not pay attention to the bone knife, and it was best not to have a bidder, so that he could easily pick peaches. Although there was no news soon after the Bone Dragon Spirit commanded, Jiang Ling did not doubt the Bone Dragon Spirit's vision, but attached great importance to it.
It's just that what makes Jiang Ling wonder is that he took a bidding sign at the door and entered the auction house hall, and looked for several turns, but he didn't find any trace of the bone knife. Originally, he thought that the bone knife had changed its shell, so that he ignored it, and he looked for it again, but there was still no weapon called the bone knife, and there were no bone items.
Was it bought, or was it not sold?
Jiang Ling looked at the prices of other weapons, and was so frightened that he just wanted to get out of here quickly. It's too expensive! Ordinary nine-grade spiritual weapons all start at 500 spirit crystals, and eight-grade spiritual weapons start with 5,000 spirit crystals, and the most outrageous thing is a few seven-grade spiritual weapons, which actually ask for 50,000 spirit crystals! Moreover, there are still people who keep putting up bidding signs, and some nine-grade spiritual weapons have been fried to thousands of spirit crystals.
Of course, there are cheap weapons, but they are no longer spiritual weapons, but ordinary mortal weapons. Even an ordinary steel sword and iron sword are fifty spirit crystals.
Jiang Ling only has thirty-one spirit crystals in his pocket, where can he afford them?
He thought, instead of buying these weapons, it would be better to go back and use the Tang knife he got in the tryout! At least, the knife was of good quality and didn't cost anything.
At the same time, Jiang Ling also wondered, why were these spirit weapons so expensive, and Dika sold many sigils and books, but it was only sixty-two spirit crystals?
This is Jiang Ling's layman, Dika and the things he got, firstly, they have no grade in themselves, and secondly, they are things that many Shushan students often sell, of course, they are not valuable. In addition, white-collar auction houses have always been known for their high-quality products, even ordinary weapons, whose workmanship and quality are first-class, and naturally the price is more expensive.
If there is no accident, if you want something of this grade as a bone knife, the auction house would rather throw it away than use it to make up for it.
When Jiang Ling was about to leave, he suddenly saw the waitresses just now walking into the hall from the side door with the box, it was not that Jiang Ling had good eyes, but it was that there were too many freckles on the face of the freckled woman, and Jiang Ling, who had some dense phobia, was naturally impressed by her, and recognized it at first sight.
Then, Jiang Ling's eyes lit up again, and he saw that what the freckled woman was holding in her hand was the black box containing the bone knife that Jiang Ling was looking for.
The waiters put the newly brought items in a prominent position, most of which were placed in a conspicuous position, and the price was extremely high, and there was even a jade seal worth more than 100,000 yuan. On the contrary, it was the bone knife, which was placed in the far corner, and the light was dim and no one cared about it.
Jiang Ling didn't go over immediately, but pretended to turn around for another half a circle before walking in front of the bone knife.
The bone knife has been taken out of the box.
It's crude!
Jiang Ling's first feeling was rough, as rough as a product of the Stone Age, that is, a crescent-shaped bone, about thirty centimeters long, one end was sharpened, and the other end was fixed with rivets A wooden handle, on which two layers of non-slip hemp rope were wrapped.
This is also called a weapon?
The corners of Jiang Ling's mouth cracked, the spirit of the bone dragon couldn't be talking in a dream just now, right?
Prices start at twenty-five spirit crystals.
This is the pricing of the bone knife, and its grade can be seen from the pricing, which is obviously not a good product.
Jiang Ling was even more hesitant, he stood by the bone knife for a full three minutes, during which there were quite a few people in the auction house, but no one had ever come to see the bone knife, and naturally there would be no bidding stickers.
If Jiang Ling put up a bidding sign now and bid for twenty-five spirit crystals, it is very likely that he will buy it in the end.
The auction time for the item display is one hour, and no more bidding can be made when the time is up.
Jiang Ling did not act rashly, but continued to wander around.
Twenty-five spirit crystals are not expensive, even if it is a gamble, the spirit of the bone dragon should not talk nonsense. This is Jiang Ling's thoughts, he has already decided to buy it, but he is afraid that he has posted a bidding stick, which will attract the attention of others to the bone knife, and his spirit crystal is limited, so he does not dare to play bidding with others, so he can only wait.
An hour isn't long, but when you're waiting, it's extraordinarily long.
Jiang Ling felt like he had been waiting for almost a century, and finally waited for the countdown to the asking price next to the bone knife to come to one minute.
He slowly pretended to casually approach the bone knife display window, and wrote the starting price of twenty-five spirit crystals on the bidding stick, but he didn't paste it immediately, and when the countdown entered ten seconds, Jiang Ling posted it.
Four seconds, three seconds, two seconds, one second.
It's time.
Jiang Ling breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and at the same time couldn't help but look forward to it, I hope the spirit of the bone dragon didn't lie to me!
Two beautiful waiters wrapped up the bone knife, and led Jiang Ling to the counter to pay, and then, the bone knife belonged to Jiang Ling.
There are only bone knives, not even wooden boxes, no scabbards.
Probably in the eyes of the auction house, the wooden box that can be attached to the array seal is more valuable than the bone knife itself.
Jiang Ling didn't care about these details, nor did he care about the expression of being despised by the waiter for buying a bone knife, it didn't matter, it was the key to save Weiwei. If the bone knife is really special, it can help you improve some combat effectiveness, what if you suffer from all the white eyes?
"Yo! Isn't this an S-class freshman we haven't met in a century? Why are you so poor that you buy rags?"
Just then, an old acquaintance appeared.
