Chapter 34 Pretending to be tender
Xiao Yun's soul was wandering around inside the Wall of Wind and Snow while watching the situation outside, trying to quickly recover his soul with lightning when the patriarch outside was unprepared.
But after a while he realized that he was wrong, and the patriarch outside was more patient than he had imagined.
The soul of the patriarch also circled around these two requiem grasses, as if he was playing hide and seek with Xiao Yun.
The entire venue was undoubtedly in a boiling period now, and many cultivators, and even some alchemists, threw their sleeves angrily and left the venue. The auction table was a mess for a while, and it was terrible.
The women on the stage looked at the five figures at the front desk with embarrassed faces, and all five of them smiled and shook their heads, signaling the women not to care about the departing guests.
The woman could only stand on the stage in embarrassment, and did not say anything to hold back, nor did she continue to introduce the "finale" lot in the crystal box.
To be honest, even the woman herself has never encountered this situation today, she has been doing it at auctions for several years, and the last thing to appear in the past is often the good goods at the bottom of the box, and no matter how bad it is, it will not be as close to the stalls as it is today.
It's just a mess. Shaking her head gloomily, the woman really couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the five old guys above.
However, there were only a few who left the scene angrily, and almost all of these people were cultivators and alchemists from other places. The vast majority of locals chose to wait and see, not impulsively getting up and leaving, or even blindly following the trend to blame the auction.
Because no one knew more about the auction in Xiaoxiang North City than these local cultivators, and no one knew more about the Imperial Alchemist Guild behind the auction than them.
When the mood of the audience gradually calmed down and the scene was controllable again, the women looked at the five old men in the front desk again. The five of them nodded together, indicating that they were ready to bid.
At the same time, Xiao Yun was surprised to find that the soul that was staring at him outside was suddenly gone.
said that it was too late, Xiao Yun did not hesitate to use his soul power, and sat back to Zhihai in an instant, and his soul returned to its place. At this time, the back of his body was already wet with sweat, patted his chest, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Due to the uncertainty of efficacy, the price starts at one hundred gold coins, and everyone bids freely. After the audience calmed down and the atmosphere became controllable, the woman once again showed her control over the auction, and after setting the reserve price, she silently waited for people to bid.
But there was a dead silence in the audience.
It's as if everyone is deliberately holding back their breath to see which idiot will bid to buy it. However, they were more still waiting to see the situation, and they also wanted to know what the Alchemist Guild was doing this time.
The room was so quiet that you could clearly hear the breathing of the neighbors.
Two small grasses lay quietly in the crystal crate, looking like they had been picked at random on the side of the road.
After a while, the woman herself felt that no one would bid.
"This must be the first finale ever that hasn't been photographed, right?" the woman laughed at herself.
"One hundred and fifteen, fifty. At this moment, a slightly timid voice came, which instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the audience, and even two of the five elders at the front desk looked back.
Holding the number plate, Xiao Yun deliberately trembled his hands, and his voice was also a little embarrassed. If Luo Hu was here, he would have kicked him hard, and then scolded: "Let your kid pretend to be tender!"
That's right, Xiao Yun is pretending to be tender at this time.
He thought about it for a long time, and felt that the only way to prevent everyone from realizing that the grass on the stage was a good product was to use his actual age to hide it.
Therefore, he timidly raised the card to increase the price, just to divert everyone's attention to himself.
And things did not turn out as expected.
When everyone realized that the first person to increase the price this time was actually a fifteen-year-old young man, their faces were even more exciting, some were stunned, some were suspicious, some were surprised, and some were puzzled.
"Boy, do you have dog shit on your coin?" The cultivator next to him even made a mocking remark and faked a laugh, but in fact he was secretly paying attention to Xiao Yun's reaction.
That's a good question, I'm worried that I can't confuse you. Xiao Yun smiled secretly in his heart, but his mouth was hesitant and stammered: "I, I just want to, I want to shoot something to have fun." ”
Three words in one word, Xiao Yun perfectly interprets what acting talent is.
Timid but sincere, this tender pretending is still good, and he gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.
"If you raise the price, I don't want it. The shy and youthful appearance on his face, his immature face and his specious words made all the cultivators scratch their heads.
"I think this kid is unwilling to shoot anything, right?"
"It can't be the childcare you were looking for at the auction, right?"
"Whatever, wait a minute, if someone raises the price, maybe it's a good thing. ”
"yes, whatever the little brat, wait. ”
"Wait. ”
Paying attention to the whispers of the people around him, Xiao Yun was secretly happy in his heart, this tender dress was quite successful.
But just as he was complacent, a voice rang out.
"Two hundred. ”
The audience's attention was shifted again, and Xiao Yun was no exception, he wanted to see who ruined his good deeds.
The requiem grass in hand, just like that......
Where his eyes were focused, Xiao Yun saw the black-robed man again, wasn't this person the black-robed young man who had bid for the pulse technique before but didn't even call out the price?
"Why are you everywhere? Xiao Yun scolded in his heart, I'm afraid that this thing is really yellow. If you increase the price yourself, you will definitely be seen by others that Xiaocao is extraordinary. If you don't increase the price, the requiem grass will really fly away.
It is difficult to ride a tiger, a dilemma, and the soldiers are in the city, restless...... Xiao Yun was already so angry that he was incoherent, and some messy idioms popped out of his mouth.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Following the price increase of the black robe, some people tried to start bidding one after another.
"Two hundred and five. ”
"Two hundred and six. ”
The real childcare of the auction also began to act.
"Three hundred. ”
"Three hundred and five. ”
In just one stick of incense, the price of those two small grasses was actually increased to seven hundred gold coins. Xiao Yun closed his eyes and pondered, while greeting the black-robed ancestor in his heart, he thought about how to get the requiem grass.
And the women on the stage, who had long been listless, regained their vitality, listened to the bidding that was still slowly rising, and happily silently calculated their commissions.
In the end, with the hammer of the woman, the requiem grass was pocketed by a rich son at a high price of 850.
The finale is auctioned, which means the end of the auction.
The women on the stage briefly finished the auction and announced the end of the auction, and all the members left.
From beginning to end, the five patriarchs never said a word, not even showed their faces once.
And Xiao Yun found that the black robe had only been offered once, which meant that he didn't know that it was a requiem grass, which made Xiao Yun even more angry, but he could only regret announcing in his heart: This time it was a failure!
Following the flow of people and slowly exiting, Xiao Yun locked up the rich boy who bought the requiem grass in the crowd, and planned to negotiate again outside the venue, after all, the requiem grass is very important to Meng Xue.
Not only can it cure Mengxue, but it seems to be related to Mengxue's identity.
Thinking of Meng Xue's unreserved self, thinking of Meng Xue's complete trust in herself, although she is not her brother, but Xiao Yun is a ruthless person, this requiem grass, whatever you say, you have to get it.
Everyone left one after another, and the five elders slowly got up. The white-haired old man in the middle turned around, looked at Xiao Yun who was pushing in the crowd with a smile, and said to the four people around him, "You guys go back to the guild first, I'll go out." ”
