Flower Wine Chapter 101: Longquan Sword
This auction was the first time Xu Huaigu had participated, and he couldn't help but be curious. As he waited for the opening of the show, he kept looking around, watching more and more monks around him, until three distant bells rang from outside the room, indicating that it was already noon, and finally a little old man with a clawed beard came up to the auction table.
The little old man was not tall, and his figure was even thinner, but his eyes were cunning. As soon as he came to the stage, he nodded and greeted the monks around him, like a profiteer.
Xu Huaigu looked at the man curiously, and said with a smile when he heard him apologize: "Let you fellow Daoists wait for a long time, the auction will start soon, I believe that this auction will not disappoint you." He raised his voice and said, "Although it is probably not the first time that you have come to the auction, just in case, before the auction, I will tell you about the rules." ”
"In the process of the auction, you must be quiet, if you want to bid, the heart of the lake can be transmitted to me, I promise to be fair and just, this is the credibility guarantee of our Qinglianglou. Secondly, after the auction is over, the Taoist friends who bought the items can leave first, and our Qinglianglou will then come to the door to present the auctioned items to avoid unnecessary fights. Please rest assured that the credibility of Qinglianglou is the foundation that we have been standing in Qiyin City for hundreds of years. The little old man finally grinned and said, "I'll nag at the end, this auction item is not owned by Qinglianglou, but by the commission of the Red Fragrance Sect of Feiyuzhou, and some of the objects accumulated by the Red Fragrance Sect over the years are sold, so the rank and authenticity are all guaranteed by the Immortal Family Sect, and you don't have to worry about buying fakes." And the remnant sword that was auctioned at the end was said to be an ancient sword in the Ten Thousand Swords Tomb, which was very promising, and the Red Xiangzong didn't plan to sell it, but it really couldn't find a way to repair it, so that sword could appear at this auction, please wait and see. As soon as the little old man's words came out, the eyes of all the monks suddenly changed a little.
Although no one spoke, the atmosphere in the venue seemed to be starting to liven up. Xu Huaigu asked suspiciously, "What kind of sect is the Red Incense Sect?" Bai Xiaoyu sent a message to him: "The Red Xiangzong is a major Buddhist sect in Feiyuzhou, and it can be regarded as the master of the Buddhist family in Feiyuzhou." The Red Incense Sect is not only a wonderful Dharma, but also very strong, and it is a first-class sect in the top few sects in Flying Fish Continent, which is why these monks are so surprised. And as expected, that remnant sword is the sword in the Ten Thousand Sword Tomb, but I don't know which ancient sword immortal's relic it is. Xu Huaigu was excited, but he was also a little worried, and said: "But since this sword is so powerful, I'm still worried that the money is not enough." Bai Xiaoyu replied boldly: "It's okay, he didn't release the news that this sword came from the Ten Thousand Sword Shrine in advance, so it shouldn't have attracted monks from the Eighth or Ninth Realm, and the people here should only be from the Sixth and Seventh Realms." With the money we both have, it's absolutely no problem to take this sword. When Xu Huaigu heard this, he nodded reassuringly and laughed.
Soon he will be able to have a sword again, not to mention that this one is still a remnant sword in the Ten Thousand Sword Tomb, and there is hope for promotion to immortal soldiers.
Although the Red Incense Sect couldn't fix it, who knew that Xu Huaigu couldn't? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel his heart beat faster and looked forward to it.
After the little old man said these words, he said aloud: "Now we will invite the first auction item, the merit rosary!" Xu Huaigu had never heard of this thing, so he suddenly became interested, leaned forward, and looked at the stage curiously.
I saw a beautiful female monk carrying a plate and walked up, while the little old man picked up a string of rosaries on the plate and said with a smile on his face: "This merit rosary is a special product of the Red Incense Sect. We all know that monks who kill people are responsible for karmic karma, and the Red Incense Sect claims that this merit rosary has the effect of eliminating this karmic karma, so if there are monks who have made mistakes, they may as well buy it. It's just that we Qinglianglou have to be reminded that it's just that the Red Incense Sect claims that it has this wonderful effect, as for whether it is useful or not, no one can say whether it is such a mysterious thing as karma and karma. Xu Huaigu blinked, feeling that this thing was really strange.
I've never heard of such a miraculous thing before, but today I've seen it for a long time. Bai Xiaoyu also smiled, and Xinhu said, "This thing is so weird, I have followed the master for so many years, and I have never heard of such a thing. The old man was very cunning in putting this strange thing in the first auction. The merit rosary is a gimmick, which immediately attracts everyone's attention, and the things behind it are easy to sell. The little old man said: "The starting price, twenty large beads, at least five large beads!" "There was silence in the room, but everyone was talking in the heart lake.
Soon, the little old man smiled and said, "Someone has already bid for thirty pieces, if you want this, please send the message to me quickly!" ”
"Thirty-five, someone has already bid for thirty-five, is there anything higher?" The little old man smiled slyly: "Forty! It's still the same Taoist friend before, it seems that this Taoist friend really craves this merit rosary, it can't be that he has made too many mistakes before, right? There was a low laugh in the room, after all, the rules said that you were not allowed to speak, but it was not said that you were not allowed to laugh out loud.
Moreover, this old man spoke very interestingly, and Xu Huaigu was greatly interested in him.
"If there is no Taoist friend to increase the price, it will be closed?" He stayed for a moment, and no one raised the price anymore, so he slammed the small hammer in his hand on the table and said loudly: "Deal!" Congratulations to this fellow Taoist for buying the merit rosary for the price of 40 large beads! The little old man put the rosary back on the plate, and the beautiful woman smiled at the audience, threw a wink, and went down.
According to the rules, this merit rosary will be sent by Qinglianglou to the buyer after the auction.
After that, several auction items were all spiritual weapons and magic weapons, but as Bai Xiaoyu said, they were relatively ordinary, not as strange as the merit rosary.
And they are all things that can be bought in the outside market, so there are not many bidders, but there are no unsuccessful auctions, they are all sold, it seems that the face of the Red Xiangzong is still somewhat useful.
Another auction item was served, but this time it was not a young and beautiful friar who came to the stage, but a cute girl in her teens.
The girl was carved in pink, with a red face, two pigtails, and a red dress, looking light and lovely.
With a stone on her head, she walked onto the stage with a smile. The little old man in charge of the auction took a lot of effort to move the stone from her head to the auction table, and then he pointed to the stone and explained with a fluttering eyebrow: "This auction item is different from the previous ones, this is a sword grinding stone, don't look at its low rank, it looks like an ordinary small sword cultivator used to sharpen swords, but it has a great origin." ”
"Everyone knows that there is a born sword fetus in Feiyu Continent, named Su Shu. Before she became famous, she had been using this sword grinding stone for eight years. Fellow Daoists, you might as well think about it, how rare the innate sword fetus is, and many monks rarely see it once in their lives. And now, such an opportunity is in front of you, as long as you buy this sword grinding stone, you can even comprehend a few points of the mysterious sword intent left on it by the innate sword fetus! In my opinion, this is a rare thing in life, and it is not expensive, the starting price is ten large beads, and the minimum price is increased by three! When Xu Huaigu heard him say this, he was taken aback, and quickly looked at the woman in the light blue robe, only to see that she was still sitting upright, making it impossible to see the expression on her face.
The little old man spoke very vigorously, but no one was interested in this sharpening stone. Although Su Shu's fame is in it, it is a useless item.
After all, the rank of that piece of sword grinding stone is too low, and all the monks present are above the Six Realms, and they can only be used as decorations to buy and collect when they are bought home, and it is really not cost-effective to spend ten big beads to buy this.
The little old man thought that someone would definitely want this sword grinding stone, but he didn't expect that after half a day, no one would bid, which couldn't help but make him a little disappointed.
Could it be that this sharpening stone is going to be the first item to be sold today? Xu Huaigu saw that the little old man didn't speak for a long time, and knew that no one was bidding, so he hurriedly said in his heart: "Ten big beads, I bought them." The little old man quoted: "There are already Taoist friends who are willing to pay ten big beads to buy the sword grinding stone used by Su Shu, and there are still Taoist friends who want to increase the price?" There was silence in the heart lake, and the little old man was a little helpless, and he was about to put it
The word "deal" was spoken, but he heard an indifferent female voice sounding in his heart: "I will give out a hundred." Xu Huaigu thought that no one was competing with him, and the sword grinding stone was about to arrive, but when he saw the little old man's face stagnant, he suddenly secretly said something bad in his heart.
The little old man's face was strange, and he said with some uncertainty: "Some Taoist friends directly increased the price from ten large beads to one hundred, and now the price of the sword grinding stone is one hundred large beads, is there anyone who offers a higher price?" Xu Huaigu was taken aback, his face was puzzled, and he subconsciously looked around, but he saw that the monks on the field were very surprised, and they all looked at each other, full of doubts.
Obviously, no one is vying for this sword grinding stone, but there are people who are willing to spend a hundred big beads to buy it, and they directly increase the price tenfold, how can it not be surprising?
Xu Huaigu seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly looked in the direction of Zuoqiu Xun, but saw that the woman in the light blue robe did not look left and right like other monks, but was still sitting upright.
Seeing this, Xu Huaigu's heart seemed to have an answer. That sword grinding stone, maybe only in her eyes, is worth a hundred big beads.
The little girl who came up with the stone was overjoyed when she saw that the sword grinding stone was sold for a high price, and smiled happily and gave a salute to the monks, and then put the stone on top of her head and brought it back.
After such a turmoil, the atmosphere of the auction became more and more enthusiastic. The next few items were sold at a high price, and Xu Huaigu couldn't resist the temptation and tried to buy a sun exorcism talisman.
It was a third-grade talisman, which was one grade higher than the fourth-grade Zixia Sect Thunder Talisman that he got from Lin Cangyang, and naturally the price was extremely expensive, and it cost him fifty large beads, and after buying it, Xu Huaigu felt distressed for a long time.
But since that thunder talisman was used up in Lucheng, Xu Huaigu has always felt that he has no hole cards on his body except for the Heart Lake Flying Sword.
This three-rank scorching sun exorcism talisman not only has a strong restraint on ghosts and spirits, but also has extremely high killing power against ordinary monks, which is not much better than the thunder talisman that must be killed below the three realms, so he feels that he needs to buy this talisman in case of emergency.
As the items were auctioned off one by one, the sun was gradually sinking in the west, and the auction gradually came to an end.
It's just that the more it ends, the more excited the monks become, because as the finale of this auction, the remnant sword from the Ten Thousand Sword Shrine is about to appear.
Finally, the little old man had sold all the items except for the broken sword, so he took a deep breath and said to the monks in a deep voice: "Fellow Daoists, I know that many of you have come from afar to participate in this auction for this last broken sword. As I said, this sword will definitely live up to everyone's high expectations, and it will do what it says. He turned around, turned his back to the monks, looked solemnly at the back of the auction table, and said, "Please forgive us for not telling you all the news about this broken sword in advance, in fact, we know the name of this sword." The hearts of the monks rose to their throats with these words, and they listened nervously.
He excitedly raised his hand to make an invitation, and said loudly: "Then, let's have an invitation next, Longquan!" ”
