Chapter 146: Auction
"This is made of the finest fairy jade. Tan Yuan was triumphant, "I can tell you, with this texture, only the token of the head of the other immortal cultivation sects can be used." β
Mu Yi didn't care about what kind of super high treatment he had, he just wanted to know the role of immortal jade: "Dare to ask Senior Brother Tan Tan, what is this immortal jade for, it won't just be used to make tokens." β
Hearing Mu Yi ask, Tan Yuan couldn't help but get proud, picked up the senior brother's shelf, and pretended to be profound: "Second junior brother, immortal jade is the most indispensable resource for cultivating immortals, and the most important role is to absorb aura. In addition, it can also be used to replenish spiritual power for the formation, or directly engrave the formation on it. For example, the token I gave you is the certificate for entering and exiting our Kunlun Gate, and it is engraved with the formation map required to enter and exit the mountain protection array. β
Mu Yi suddenly felt in his heart when he heard this, no wonder Lin Zi used those crystal stones to stimulate the teleportation array that day, it turned out that those stones were all immortal jade.
"Then dare to ask Senior Brother, the immortal jade should be divided into grades, is the immortal jade used in the token in our hands the best?"
"This and this" Tan Yuan's face was a little unnatural, "After all, the token is not so useful, so naturally it will not be used best." But compared to other sects, we use the best. As for the classification of immortal jade, the most high-grade is immortal crystal, which can be encountered but not sought; the medium is immortal marrow, and the aura is slightly inferior; the lowest is immortal jade, which is also the most commonly used. β
"The immortal jade used by our sect to transmit tokens is so good, there must be a lot of immortal marrow in the mountain gate. Xiaowen said with wide eyes.
"Hehe, what's this," Tan Yuan laughed dryly, "Since we are all a family, senior brother, I will not talk in secret, our master used a better immortal jade in order to decorate the faΓ§ade, and the token is good, in fact, the best inventory of our sect is like this." However, the two of you can rest assured that you rely on yourself for your cultivation, and it is always inappropriate to rely on external objects. β
Xiaowen's eyebrows were twisted into a rope, and she felt that she had been deceived. Mu Yi didn't think so, he had long expected that this would be the case, and what would be the background of the mountain gate supported by the master and apprentice.
"Senior brother and sister, what is that, I know that you still don't know anything about cultivating immortals, there is an auction in the afternoon, and the things sold are all-encompassing, senior brother, I just want to take you to see it. Tan Yuan saw that the scene was a little embarrassing, and hurriedly found out the reason.
Mu Yi thought about it for a while, and felt that this was not bad, not only could he see all kinds of cultivation realms, but he could also avoid being disturbed by other sects, so he nodded in agreement.
Mu Yi and his wife casually lied to their parents, boarded Tan Yuan's Hongqi car, and followed him to the legendary Xiuzhen Realm auction.
The car drove onto the road, turned a few alleys, and stopped in front of a large mansion, Tan Yuan said a few words to the driver and then led the two of them to the courtyard, introducing as he walked: "This is the old mansion of the prince of the previous dynasty, and the four old ones were not smashed a few years ago, do you know why? β
Mu Yi shrugged his shoulders indifferently, stepped into the courtyard gate, and as soon as he entered, two people immediately stopped him: "I'm sorry, the ruins of Prince Gong's Mansion are being repaired, please go back first." β
Tan Yuan didn't make a sound, but just took out the token of Kunming Gate and handed it to the person who came, Mu Yi and Xiaowen saw the same, painted the scoop according to the gourd, and took out the token that had just been hot for a long time.
"Okay, please come in. The doorman didn't say much, made a gesture of invitation, and flashed back to an inconspicuous position behind the door.
The house looks inconspicuous and dilapidated outside the door. Can bypass the wall, there is a scene of carved beams and painted pillars in front of the eyes, the stone lion that should be placed outside the gate, actually put it in front of the main building, the carving is extremely exquisite, the pavilion carves the beams and paints the building, depicts the gold plastic phoenix, it is not magnificent, even the steps into the house, are white and brand new white marble, and the end is luxurious.
Entering the inner hall, the momentum is even more magnificent, although Mu Yi does not know much about the old mansion, but also feels that it is impossible to have such a large inner hall before, the length and width are more than ten zhang, larger than the banquet hall of the Diaoyutai Hotel, presumably after the owner bought this mansion, opened up the entire courtyard, and built such a large living room.
It is normal for Mu Yi to think so, because the top of his head is not the beam log of a traditional building, but a huge piece of transparent glass, supported by four pillars on the top, and the attics around it look different styles, which should be the effect of different buildings being connected together.
In ancient times, the buildings were not very tall, and this hall was built according to ancient times, and it only had two floors. There are tables, chairs and benches on the second floor on the east, west, and south sides, which should be for visitors, while the second floor on the north side is much higher and empty, with only a standing microphone in the middle, which should be a place for VIPs to speak or the host of the auction to speak.
As for the interior of the hall, that is, where Mu Yi and the others were, there were rows of seats in a staggered manner, and there were some high tables in the front half, on which there was some food. The seats in the back don't have this treatment, like the seats on the train, row after row.
Tan Yuan led the two to the corner of the last row of seats and sat down, more than thirty meters away from the auction booth, Xiaowen was dissatisfied: "Why do we sit so far, how can we see clearly, I see that the second floor is empty, and there is no one in the front row, let's sit over there." β
Tan Yuan was greeting the people next to him in a low voice, although few paid attention to him. Listening to Xiaowen's question, she sneered: "The cultivation realm is not as good as the current secular realm, and it is very particular about the respect and inferiority of the elders and the young, so it's nothing for us to sit here, anyway, we are all cultivators, and our eyesight is much better than ordinary people." As for the second junior brother, I'll just introduce him later. β
Mu Yi finally knew how miserable Kunlun Sect was now, and said with a smile: "Don't bother Senior Brother, I have good eyesight since I was a child, and I can see clearly." β
Xiaowen snorted coldly, after all, the woman had a little vanity, and she was very dissatisfied with Tan Yuan's arrangement, so she ignored him anymore.
Tan Yuan was not annoyed, and was busy greeting other sects, pointing at Xiaowen while salivating and talking.
In fact, since Xiaowen came in, many people around her have noticed her, and those who can cultivate to the liquid transformation stage in their twenties are indeed talents that are rare in a hundred years. The big guy thought it was a disciple of a major sect, but when he heard it, he found that it was a new recruit from Kunlun Sect, an unpopular sect, and his face was quite strange, some surprised, some puzzled, and even more regretful.
Even those who had the audacity to come up and prepare to snatch love with a knife and want to pull her to their own sect, but they were all blocked back by Tan Yuanpi with a smile, and from beginning to end, he put the sentence "Betraying the master is a taboo in the cultivation world".
On the surface, this is for the people to hear, but in fact, it is even more for Xiaowen secretly. Mu Yi is not a stupid person, he was annoyed by him, and said impatiently: "I said senior brother, my family Xiaowen will not betray Kunlun Gate, needless to say, it is so obvious." β
Tan Yuan was choked by Mu Yi, and he was not annoyed, but looked like he had achieved his goal: "Of course I believe in the little junior sister, the auction is about to start, let's take a serious look, and I will explain it to you in a while, senior brother." β
Mu Yi looked around, and sure enough, he saw that the hall was already full of people, only the seats on the second floor were still empty and there were not a few people seated.
"I said, senior brother, who is the second floor for? Why are there so few people in such a big place?"
Tan Yuan whispered: "The second floor is naturally prepared for the three major factions. However, their family has a big business, and many people must look down on this auction, so they didn't come. β
Mu Yi nodded, focusing his gaze on the young woman who had just stepped onto the auction table.
This woman is not very old, estimated to be in her early twenties, with a delicate goose egg face, and her facial features are very attractive, and the combination is just right, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.
"Hello everyone, today's auction of this issue of our Treasure Workshop will be held as scheduled, thank you for coming to the seniors of the cultivation realm. You are all cultivators of various sects, and the rules of the auction must be known to everyone, so I won't say much about Shaoru. Let's get straight to the point and start looking at the first lot. β
Since Tan Yuan came on stage, her eyes began to blur, and her mouth kept snorting, and she praised continuously: "How is it, beautiful." This is Hu Shaoru, the daughter of the owner of the Treasure Workshop, and that appearance is really the best in the world!"
Xiaowen snorted dissatisfied, becoming more and more dissatisfied with this senior brother, and Mu Yi patted the senior brother's face: "I said, it's time to introduce us to the rules of the auction." Don't be a nymphomaniac. β
"Senior brother, haven't I been single for a long time? Tan Yuan reluctantly retracted his gaze and introduced, "If you want to make an offer, just shout directly." Each increase in the price must not be less than one percent of the starting price, if you shout in the end but have no money to buy, then you will be miserable, not only will you have to ask for it, but you will also be disqualified from the auction. β
"So tough, it seems that the strength of this Treasure Workshop is worthy of these cultivation sects. Mu Yi said in a speech.
"Hey," Tan Yuan glanced at the stage again, "The Xiuzhen Sect is only a sect that accepts disciples, and it does not represent all the cultivation forces. In addition to the twenty sects, there are also four major Xiuzhen families and more than ten small Xiuzhen families. These families only cultivate cultivators within the family, so their influence is not as great as that of the sects, but in terms of strength, they are by no means worthy of these sects. β
Mu Yi said dissatisfiedly after hearing this: "I asked him about the Earth Cultivation Realm in the morning, but you only said what sects, and you didn't introduce these families." I said, senior brother, are you reliable, what else is not good with me. β
"This will be explained in a while. Tan Yuan said vaguely, "Besides, you only said that you wanted to know about the cultivation realm, but in fact, in addition to our cultivation realm, there are also foreign supernatural beings on the earth, but there are very few contacts with us." β
"Oh?" Mu Yi scratched his head, "It's so complicated." β
"But no, these things have little to do with us, let's talk about it when we encounter it in the future, come on, come on, the first auction item has been brought up, let's take a serious look!"
