Qionglou Yuyu, colorful.

The lights are bright and the pedestrians are crowded.

Swire is also a city that never sleeps.

Walking in the streets and alleys, Gu Dongdong said: "Three hundred spirit stones and an invitation card can earn 600,000 yuan at once, why don't the Jiang family set up more places?" ”

Zhong Yan said with a smile: "These two thousand people should be prepared for casual cultivation, those big names of the sect family, the Jiang family will definitely give them for free, and there are some monks who have a relationship with the door, most of them also have other ways to get invitations, such a large-scale auction, not to mention five or six thousand people." ”

Only rare things can be called auctions, and the general auction is a dozen lots, and more than twenty lots are considered more.

The Jiang family got ninety-nine pieces, and even 'Zhuji Dan' had them, and they were obviously monks with a large face.

It was not so much an auction as an exchange meeting, and many of the monks who wanted to participate were rushing to see the world.

"Fellow Daoists, slow down!"

A voice came, and a fat monk dressed as a Taoist priest quickly chased after him, and arched his hand: "Excuse me, two Taoist friends, do you need an invitation to the auction?" Only fifteen hundred spirit stones. ”

Zhong Yan was dumbfounded, he had met two people who peddled scalper tickets when he came out of the restaurant before, one thousand and twenty-one.

"One thousand five? I didn't even buy it when someone asked for 800. ”

As he spoke, Zhong Yan's gaze swept over the six storage bags and a spirit beast bag on the other party's waist, and then looked at his fat face wearing a face, slightly stunned, and a familiar figure appeared in his mind.

Fat Daodao: "Don't joke about Daoist friends, you can't buy eight hundred now." ”

Zhong Yan stared at him, unable to see the geometry of cultivation, and asked, "Dare to ask Dao Yougui's surname?" ”

The fat Taoist was stunned for a moment, a look of vigilance flashed in his eyes, and he muttered in his heart: You won't meet the wronged boss who was slaughtered so coincidentally, these two people have never concealed their appearances, and they are completely impressed......

Looking at his demeanor, he judged that Zhong Yan was the first to arrive in the Holy City, and because he couldn't see through Zhong Yan's realm, he felt that his cultivation was not bad and he should be rich, so he stepped forward to sell it.

With his mind racing, the fat Taoist arched his hand and smiled: "Since Daoist friends think it's expensive, then just give up and disturb." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Zhong Yan stopped: "Pang Daoyou! ”

The fat man paused, and countless memories flashed in his mind for a moment, and he was sure that he didn't recognize the two behind him again, but if he could call out his real surname, he must have recognized himself, and he was an old friend and acquaintance.

After some consideration, he slowly turned around, and the fox asked, "I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”

Zhong Yan smiled, resumed his original voice and said, "Qingyang has been farewell for fifty years, is it okay, Brother Dao?" ”

This fat Taoist is a 'Duobao Taoist person', Pang Baodu!

In the past, Qingyang City's strength and wealth were among the best in casual cultivation, quite mysterious, with eight layers of qi refining on the bright side, but Zhong Yan never saw its true depth.

Unexpectedly, after a trip, he would go to the distant Taigu City.

Pang Baodu's eyes widened, he was stunned for a moment, stepped forward quickly, looked the fox up and down and said suspiciously: "Brother Zhong?!" ”

Zhong Yan smiled: "It's me, I miss Brother Dao with Brother Siyuan so much!" ”

"Hey!"

Pang Baodu raised his hand and punched him in the chest: "You can startle me, go, talk in another place!" ”

Zhong Yan smiled: "It seems that Brother Dao has done a lot of side jobs. ”

"Barely sustaining your practice." auspicious clouds appeared at Pang Baodu's feet, carrying Zhong Yan and the others to fly into the sky.

Most immortal cities are not completely void, as long as they stay above the city roads and do not fly over buildings indiscriminately.

The city is too big to fly, it is unrealistic, just to say that this Taigu City is more than ten times larger than Qingyang City, and it may not be possible to visit it after three or five years of walking.

Turn left and turn right.

The three of them soon landed in a small courtyard nearby.

"Brother Zhong, please come in!"

Pang Baodu pinched the trick to open the ban and warmly invited.

When he entered the house, he tore off the disguise on his face with his sleeves, revealing his true face, a very happy fat face, looked at Gu Dongdong and smiled: "Presumably this is a younger brother and sister!" ”

Gu Dongdong bowed: "Zhong Gu'er, Dong'er, I've seen Brother Dao." ”

Zhong Yan's face squirmed, and his body shape also changed, returning to his original body shape and appearance in an instant.

Pang Baodu was amazed and praised: "Brother Zhong's secret method is wonderful, there is no trace at all, and I can't see it at all!" ”

He twisted his fat body, quickly put out the wine and spirit fruit on the table to eat, and said: "Come, please sit down, I really didn't expect to see my brother here, there is fate!" Luckily! Today, you and I must talk about wine and candles! ”

"I didn't expect that! Encountering old acquaintances in a foreign country is really a happy thing in life! ”

Zhong Yan looked around with emotion, two bedrooms and one living room, plus a stone door is obviously a cultivation room, the environment is simple and elegant, and the courtyard outside is also quite exquisite, with forty square meters.

Although this place is located on the outskirts of the Holy City, being able to live in such a small courtyard shows that the other party is quite good.

"When did Brother Dao arrive Taigu?"

Pang Baodu poured the spirit wine, greeted Gu Dongdong, and said with a smile: "I came here for a while five years, passed by, and came again three years ago, I have traveled everywhere over the years, I have been to many places in the Eastern Regions, and I haven't stayed for a long time, I feel that this holy city is good, so I rented this courtyard and prepared to live for two or three years, this is not waiting for you to come brother, you ......."

Zhong Yan smiled secretly, although he hadn't seen each other for a long time, he had a lot of contact with Qingyang, but he knew him well, he was a guy who couldn't afford to be early, how good could he go, and it would definitely be profitable to stay here for three years if he went and returned.

Pang Baodu was already quite hearty and talkative, and he was also in a good mood when he saw the old man, and he told the general experience of the past few decades, and he did not shy away from it, saying that he had encountered some adventures and made great progress.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Zhong Yan judged between the lines that this guy was now at least the seventh layer of Jindan.

However, for Pang Baodu's spiritual root qualifications, including Li Henian, Bai Siyuan, Yang Yanqing and other acquaintances, they don't know the specifics, some say three spiritual roots, and some say true spiritual roots.

Zhong Yan has always suspected that when he first arrived in Qingyang, Pang Baodu had already built a foundation, and the most impressive thing was that when he met Shen Wuli in Qingyuan Village, he saw through the other party's cultivation at a glance.

Even, the thought that popped up in his mind was that Pang Bao was an old monster like the 'Fifth Venerable' and the 'Corpse Stinky Daoist', mixing in the red dust and playing the world.

Otherwise, Ming Huang hung so many storage bags around his waist, and he was still running around, and he had been in the Northwest cultivation world for many years, but he had never had an accident.

"At present, there are great battles everywhere, but this holy city is peaceful, and the wind and clouds will meet, and monks from all walks of life will come and go, and they will be quite knowledgeable...... Brother Zhong, how is Yan Guo? ”

Zhong Yan touched a glass with him and talked about the situation in Yanguo and Weinan in detail.

The two pushed the cup and changed the lamp, chatted until the sun rose, and then talked back to Taikoo City, auctions, fighting methods to recruit relatives, and all walks of life.

For example, selling invitations, this guy is an 'official scalper', and he partnered with a member of the Jiang family, and he was 'ordered to raise the price', and the six hundred were returned to the Jiang family, and the higher was sold, and the excess belonged to him.

In addition, when the Jiang family first started selling invitations, he secretly recruited different casual cultivators to buy hundreds of invitations, and sold them himself, three hundred in, six hundred, and seven hundred, eight hundred, and one thousand in the back......

He also engaged in 'distribution' and found a few foundation building brothers to help sell it, which really made a windfall.

Pang Baodu: "The Jiang family's auction is quite grand, and important figures from all major forces have participated......"

Zhong Yan took the promotional album, a thick one, beautifully made, with a detailed introduction to the lots, pills, magic weapons, elixirs, exercises...... Ninety-nine lots in total.

What made his eyes stare was that as soon as he turned to the third page, the third lot was a red and black soul stone, shaped like a key, judging from the picture, it was exactly the same as the two 'key jades' he had ever seen!

A 'Baotong Trading House' from Jingcheng Shenxiao Sect, because he noticed that it could attract qi and blood, it was not an unusual soul stone, he thought it was missing, so he bought it, and finally gave it to Pei Nanjin.

The other one was obtained from the Yunmeng Secret Realm, and Wei Siyu sneaked into the underground cave and found it in the storage bag of the fallen ancient monk, at that time he had already noticed that it was extraordinary, but after many studies to no avail, he gave it to Wei Siyu.

Seeing it again at this moment, Zhong Yan felt more and more that this key-like jade was strange, maybe its real purpose was really a 'key', to open an object, or a portal?

Obviously, the Jiang family didn't study it, otherwise they wouldn't have taken it out for auction, and the starting price was only five hundred spirit stones, which was much lower than the starting price of the previous two lots.

The description of this soul stone in the album is also very simple, small and exquisite, with a strange shape, extremely hard, and can store soul blood for a long time.

The Jiang family only emphasized its miraculous effect of 'calming the mind and concentrating', which is helpful for spiritual practice, suitable for low-level monks, and can be given to outstanding juniors as a gift for inheritance.

"No, it could be a brick throwing ......"

Zhong Yan's eyes flashed, and he whispered in his heart, maybe the Jiang family had discovered some fame, such as knowing that there was more than one 'Key Soul Stone', and deliberately took it out for auction to attract people who knew the 'Key'.

Pang Baodu noticed the change in his expression, and the fox asked, "What, my brother is interested in this soul stone?" ”

Zhong Yan nodded and said, "It looks good, it's suitable for giving away." ”

Pang Bao was dumbfounded, glanced at Gu Dongdong, who was looking at the album on the side, and said with a smile: "That's right, you can have a fun then, maybe you can shoot it, by the way, a few Zhongzhou monks came yesterday, it doesn't look simple, I should go to the Floating City to break through, and I will go to the party to take a look?" ”

"Okay, I just want to see it, too."

Zhong Yan bowed his head and asked jokingly, "Brother Dao didn't try it?" ”

Pang Baodu blinked, muttered a little, and said meaningfully: "The Jiang family's fighting method to recruit relatives this time may not be so simple. ”

"Oh?"

Zhong Yan's heart moved, "Where do you start with this?" ”
