Chapter 105: Liuhe Taixu Sword
I have to say that in the area of trading, the Mitre family's business can spread throughout the empire, which is indeed unique.
Early the next morning, as soon as Mo Yu left the inn, he could hear everywhere about the Mitre auction, and it was obvious that there must have been a lot of advertising in it.
After passing through a few streets and asking for directions by the way, after leaving the inn, Mo Yu, who was dressed in a black robe and covered most of his face, finally saw a splendid auction house.
Compared with the auction in Utan City, the auction in front of me is more majestic and tall in terms of architecture alone, and it is more eye-catching.
Seeing the auction in front of him, Mo Yu was distracted for a while, and the image of a woman wearing a red cheongsam with a bewitching and plump figure slowly appeared in his mind.
Shaking his head, Mo Yu couldn't help but rub his chin and think for a moment when he suddenly remembered Concubine Ya, and after a few breaths, he could only blame it on the shortcomings of Tiangang's thunder body.
Coming to the golden gate, Mo Yu was about to enter, but was stopped by several guards, it was worthy of the auction of Black Rock City, and the Mitre family even had the strength of a fighter with the guards.
Because there was no invitation, Mo Yu was allowed to participate in the auction after paying the entrance fee of a full 1,000 gold coins.
Of course, for Mo Yu at the moment, a thousand gold coins is just a drizzle, not to mention the gold coins that are divided equally between the mysterious cave and the little medicine fairy, and even in Mo Yin's ring, there are no less than 100,000 gold coins.
Now Mo Yu's entire net worth is probably four or five hundred thousand, which is more than the savings of some small families.
Walking into the splendid auction, just as Mo Yu was about to turn around and enter the venue, he suddenly heard a burst of exclamations around him, and couldn't help but look back curiously.
I saw that in the VIP passage next to it, the guards of the Mitre auction were bowing respectfully to welcome something, not letting Mo Yu wait longer, and the next moment, the figures of two people, one old and one young, slowly entered.
The old man's face was serious and majestic, and his strength was unfathomable, especially on the badge on the chest of the delicate black robe on his body, I saw that on the surface of the quaint medicine tripod, four silver ripples were carefully drawn!
Fourth-grade alchemist, seeing this, Mo Yu couldn't help but be stunned, the person in front of him turned out to be a fourth-grade alchemist, this kind of identity is also quite extraordinary in the empire.
Standing beside her, like a disciple, was a delicate-looking woman with silver hair hanging down her waist.
The woman's eyebrows and eyes were as clear as a cold spring on a snow-capped mountain, and she was wearing a tight-fitting silver skirt, and the silver clothes and the warm jade-like skin were intertwined, which made the woman have a special metal-like cold style that was difficult to hide.
And on the woman's black robe, there is also a mercury ripple, proving her identity as a first-grade alchemist.
"It's Master Frank and Miss Snow Charm, I didn't expect Master Frank to be there, and Miss Snow Charm has also been promoted to a first-grade alchemist."
"A famous teacher makes a high apprentice, Miss Xue Mei has become an official alchemist at such a young age, and her future prospects must be limitless."
"Miss Xue Mei is so beautiful, with such exquisite beauty and extraordinary talent, I'm afraid it's not impossible to be worthy of the imperial prince."
……
Hearing the exclamations around him, Mo Yu nodded suddenly, it turned out to be the president of the Black Rock City Alchemist Guild and his beloved disciple who was responsible for assessing Xiao Yan in the original book.
After knowing this, Mo Yu was no longer interested, and then turned around and entered the venue.
Although the fourth-grade alchemist is good, he can't enter the eye of the Mo Yu Method, and now his soul power is only one step away, and he can also enter the fourth-grade alchemist.
At the moment when Mo Yu left, Frank's cloudy old eyes suddenly lit up, and then he looked thoughtfully in the direction of Mo Yu's departure, and a strange color flashed in his old eyes.
"Strange, although this person is wearing a black robe, he should not be very old, but he seems to contain a terrifying soul power on his body, which makes me feel a little pressure, but this soul power must at least reach the peak of the third grade and the fourth grade, when did such a genius appear in Black Rock City, could it be that I sensed it wrong?" Shaking his head, Frank muttered.
"Teacher, what's wrong?" Seeing the surprised look on the old man's face, the delicate girl on the side paused, and followed the old man's gaze to look in the direction where Mo Yu left.
When he saw that it was just an ordinary person in a black robe, he couldn't help frowning, in Black Rock City, even if it was an alchemy apprentice, he would wear a special alchemist costume, and Mo Yu was so ordinary, why would he be so concerned and even surprised by his own teacher.
"Hehe, it's okay, maybe I'm wrong, let's go, let's enter the venue, I heard that there will be some good medicinal herbs today." The old man didn't say the guess in his heart, after all, it was too unbelievable.
Hearing the teacher's words, Xue Meimei's beautiful eyes blinked, for some reason, she had a faint guess in her heart, the young man in a black robe who walked over just now seemed to have brought a lot of shock to her teacher.
"Could that guy be a disciple of the head of the Gama Empire's Alchemist General Guild?" Thinking of a possibility, Xue Mei raised her eyebrows slightly, but she didn't care in her heart.
As the first person in the younger generation of medicine refining in Black Rock City, Xue Mei is confident that she is a disciple of Danwang Guhe, and she may not be able to defeat her.
Following her teacher into the venue slowly, Xue Mei looked around, but did not see the black-robed man, so she slowly put down the matter in her heart.
On the other side of the meeting, after Mo Yu entered the venue, he found a hidden position in the hall, and then observed the surrounding situation, I have to say that Black Rock City, as a big city of the empire, is indeed far from being comparable to Utan City.
Just the people in the hall alone, there were more than a dozen great fighters' breaths, and as for the fighters, there were countless of them.
And in the VIP seat in front of him, Mo Yu even faintly felt the breath of the fighting spirit, such a strong man was also the leading master in the empire.
As Mo Yu's gaze looked, he saw that Frank, the fourth-grade alchemist just now, was discussing something with an imposing middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man was dressed in luxurious clothes, his face was thin, and according to the information that Mo Yu inquired about last night, this person was the patriarch of the Ye family in Black Rock City, Ye Cong of the Eight-Star Great Dou Master.
As far as Mo Yu knew, there was an ancestor of the three-star Douling in the Ye family, but according to legend, he was in retreat and had not appeared in the field of vision of outsiders for a long time.
Just as Mo Yu was quietly observing, at this time, the auction officially began.
The auction in Black Rock City is not much different from the auction in Utan City, and under the light in the center of the auction room, a beautiful woman in a long blue dress is using her charming voice to explain the function of the item in her hand to everyone in the room.
Although this woman is not as charming as Concubine Ya, her seductive temperament also makes many men excited, and it seems that Mitre Auction is particularly good at using beauty to mobilize the atmosphere of the auction room.
In the woman's crisp and crisp voice, even the price of a not very unusual item was auctioned off at a price far beyond its own value.
Seeing this, Mo Yu couldn't help but sigh that the Mitre family could stand tall among the three major families of the empire, and indeed it had some special skills, not to mention anything else, if every city in the empire had such a beautiful auctioneer, I am afraid it would not be a simple matter.
The first few auction items were very ordinary, so after Mo Yu took a few looks, he was not interested.
His eyes turned casually, and he saw that Ye Cong and Master Frank in the first row in front had stopped talking, and the former's face also showed a heavy color, obviously encountering some difficulties.
Seeing this, Mo Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, the ancestor of the Ye family has not appeared for a long time, and Ye Cong, as the patriarch of the Ye family, seems to be on his mind, is it...?
Just when Mo Yu was faintly guessing, the auction in the field was also in full swing at this time, and an item suddenly attracted Mo Yu's attention.
"Jinyang wood, a hundred-year-old wood that grows out of the thousand-year-old volcanic lava, for some people who practice wood attribute exercises, or have attainments in refining, don't miss it, the starting price: 10,000 gold coins." The voice full of temptation sounded in the audience, making Mo Yu slightly stunned.
"It turned out to be Jin Yangmu!" When he saw the wooden branches in the field full of the power of the red sun, Mo Yu's eyes lit up and said,
This item was the last material he used to refine the 'Beam Fire Cover', Mo Yu thought that it was really impossible to go to the Mulan Empire to find it again, but he didn't expect that this accidental auction would be able to successfully collect it, but it was also a kind of luck.
"Ten thousand twelve!" As soon as the voice of the beautiful auctioneer fell, someone shouted.
"Ten thousand!" The sound of markups followed.
……
The price in the market continued to rise, and soon it reached a high price of 17,000.
And Mo Yu swept slightly, and found that almost all of these people who were asking for prices were because of cultivating wood attribute exercises, and he couldn't help but shake his head, it was really a waste that such a good refining material was used to cultivate the exercises.
"Twenty thousand!" As the price increase gradually subsided, Mo Yu shouted.
Hearing this price, it directly scared off many competitors, after all, they bought Jinyang wood just to absorb the rich wood attribute energy contained in it, and this kind of thing is not irreplaceable, the price of 20,000 is really high.
With the withdrawal of most of the competitors, in the end, only a few or three people were left to continue to follow the price, and finally after Mo Yu shouted the ultra-high price of 30,000, he successfully won it.
The price of 30,000 is a high price for others, but for Mo Yu, who is worth hundreds of thousands, it is not very painful, and the value of this piece of Jinyang wood is more than 30,000 gold coins for a refiner.
After taking the golden yang wood, there is nothing to attract Mo Yu in the next few items, of course, this is not that there are nothing good in this auction, but that Mo Yu's vision is too high.
There were a few medicinal herbs, and even Master Frank personally bought them, and one of them, a medicinal herb called Blue Spirit Star Flower, was sold for a high price of 300,000 gold coins, which made Mo Yu smack his tongue slightly.
As time slowly passed, there were fewer and fewer auction items in the field, and when Mo Yu was about to leave the venue, an auction item caught his attention.
"Hehe, below, is the last item in this auction, the Liuhe Taixu Sword." The woman in the blue dress slowly brought up a jade plate, bent down slightly, and took out a sword, shining with extraordinary power under the illumination of the light.
The sword is three and a half feet long, the sword body is cast and thin with dark iron outside the sky, revealing a faint cold light, the hilt of the sword is a golden dragon carving, which looks extremely majestic, and the blade is extremely sharp, as if the real blade is too empty.
It's just that at this time, the tip of this Liuhe Taixu Sword seemed to be like a huge attack, and a corner was smashed off, not only that, but the entire sword body was also full of cracks, and the original imposing sword was like an old man in his last years, as if it would collapse at any time.
As soon as this sword appeared, Ye Cong, the head of the Ye family in the first row below, stared closely at this heavily damaged Liuhe Taixu Sword, and an unknown heaviness flashed in his eyes.
"This sword is the personal sword of a strong fighting spirit, in his hands has killed countless strong enemies, but in a big battle was seriously damaged, but the sword intent in the sword is still there, as long as an excellent refining master refines it, you will be able to get an extraordinary sword, auction price: 200,000!"
At this time, the woman in the blue dress was trying her best to introduce the sword, but as her voice fell, many people slowly shook their heads.
This Liuhe Taixu Sword is indeed as the woman said, it is extremely good, if it is intact, even a strong person who fights for the spirit will not hesitate to spend a lot of money to snatch it down.
Of course, that was in its own right, and now that the sword was so badly damaged, I was afraid that if it was to be repaired, it would have to be repaired by a skilled refiner.
Ask the refiner to sell the price of the order, refiners are so rare, and senior refiners are even more difficult to find, almost rare, so spending 200,000 gold coins is almost equivalent to buying a handful of scrap iron.
Therefore, after the words of the woman in the blue dress fell, the audience was silent for a while, an almost abandoned sword, I am afraid that few people want to be the wronged leader.
Seeing such a situation, Ye Cong, the head of the Ye family in the first row of the VIP seat, couldn't help frowning, and a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
On the other side, Mo Yu, when he saw this seriously damaged sword, for some reason, had a strange feeling in his heart.
This sword is not bad, in terms of quality alone, it is comparable to the fourth order, even the Shenwei Black Thunder Spear is only slightly better.
Although this Liuhe Taixu Sword is seriously damaged, it is like a demon pet purple fire, giving Mo Yu the feeling that it does not seem to be an ownerless thing, just like a wandering child, there is still a master's breath in its body, although this breath is very weak, but it is still keenly detected by Mo Yu.
Thinking of this, Mo Yu's brows couldn't help frowning slightly.
It stands to reason that a regular store like Mitre Auction should first determine whether the origin of each item is orthodox before auctioning the items, otherwise the front foot will sell the thing, and the real owner of the back foot item will come, which will not be a smashing field.
So this kind of mistake, the Mitre auction shouldn't be so stupid, and in addition to that, there is another possibility, that is... They did it on purpose!
Realizing this, a message suddenly flashed in Mo Yu's mind, as if he had understood something, and then looked at Ye Cong in the first row of the auction, only to see a faint look of disappointment on the latter's face, and suddenly his heart suddenly suddenly, the corners of his mouth outlined an arc, and Mo Yu said loudly.
"Two hundred thousand, I want it!"
