Chapter 181: Doubts
Zhao Chen didn't pay much attention to the jealousy deliberately expressed by his senior brother, but focused his attention on the old man with white hair and black clothes.
If he guessed correctly, this should be the best friend of the casting master Tao Zhou, the "Iron General" Lu Qi.
His person is already a complete cultivator, with a complete set of eighteen natal spells, and in the area of Yumen, his combat power is enough to rank among the top three in the realm of Gangsha.
Qiao Zhou, the former captain "Purple-haired King Kong" who ranked ninth on the "Jade Gate Masterpiece List", once challenged him, but he was defeated in just over ten moves.
It's a pity that this "Iron General" has no true biography, he can't even match a magical power, and he is over 100 years old, and he has long lost hope of promotion.
Of course, the current Zhao Chen knows that what he lacks is actually a five-grade urn.
Sensing the gaze of the "Lord", Tao Zhou hurriedly stepped forward and enthusiastically introduced: "Young Master Chen, this is my old friend Lu Qi......"
Then, he said to Lu Qi, "This son is Zhao Chen, the 'Blood Sword Langjun' who saved me on the way back to Dunhuang, and he can be described as a young hero." ”
Sure enough, it was Lu Qi...... Zhao Chen nodded invisibly, then glanced at Tao Zhou, and complained in his heart: "Can you not mention the nickname "Blood Sword Langjun"?
Lu Qi glanced at Zhao Chen, as well as the "Qi Fei Meng", Mo Qiu, and Ning Meng beside him, his brows furrowed, and he didn't like the other party's son-in-law style very much.
But he is a person with clear grievances, since this so-called "Blood Sword Langjun" saved his friend, he is his benefactor, so he solemnly thanked him:
"Thank you Chen Gongzi for saving Lao Tao's life...... If you have any trouble in the future, just come to me...... Lu Qi will definitely die! ”
"Senior Lu is serious...... Zhao Chen bowed his hand politely, and saw that the guests had arrived one after another, so he suggested, "Let's sit down first." ”
Speaking of which, the layout of the Qingyunlou auction venue is also completely different from the auction venues in other places.
Zhen Wei placed round tables in the hall for the invited guests to stay, and at the front of the hall, there was a platform that was not too high, on which were set up all kinds of prohibitions and magic circles.
The whole layout was very similar to the scene of the wedding that Zhao Chen attended before he came to this world, which made him have the illusion of wearing it back for a while.
Fortunately, the relatively quaint clothes of the guests brought him back to reality.
Zhao Chen shook his head lightly, chose a relatively remote table with Tao Zhou, and sat down.
Soon, a maid brought wine, food, tea, and other food.
Who did Zhen Wei learn from? I almost couldn't resist following it...... Zhao Chen looked at the dishes on the table, glanced at the crystal chandelier hanging on the dome that resembled the "Sixteen Venus Libra Sword", and muttered in his heart.
Just as Feng Cang, Lu Qi and the others were unceremoniously feasting, the scene suddenly fell silent, because three monks had climbed to the front of the high platform.
A middle-aged monk in a purple robe with a dignified appearance, a beautiful fairy in a crimson palace costume and elegant and close to immortals, and a young general with thick eyebrows and big eyes and an official uniform.
The middle-aged monk introduced himself: "Fellow Daoists, below is Zhen Wei, the owner of Qingyun Tower, this is the Seven Heroes of the Seven Heroes of Monan, the "Snow Eagle Sword" Feng Wan Fairy, and this is Yun Yuan, the new captain of the Dunhuang Inhuman Battalion.
"The three of us are presiding over this auction today."
Zhen Wei is the owner of Qingyun Mansion and the spokesperson of the local forces in Dunhuang, and he personally presided over it, which shows that he attaches great importance to this auction;
Feng Wan, as one of the Seven Heroes of Monan, represents the forces of the rivers and lakes that protect Dunhuang...... Especially when the Li family has contracted in an all-round way, and the Feng family is about to send supernatural monks to Dunhuang, her weight has only increased.
And although the new lieutenant Yun Yuan has not yet established himself in the battalion, his official position is there, and being able to preside over it itself shows the attitude of the military.
These three parties have joined forces to hold such an auction at this juncture, which seems to be of a high standard, and I am afraid that it also has the meaning of boosting confidence and deterring Xiaoxiao...... At least on the surface.
Zhen Wei didn't say too much greetings, and went straight to the topic.
He took out a net composed of flames of different colors, such as crimson, golden fire, and purple, and introduced it in an infectious voice:
"The first item is that the Five Flames Net, the Gang Evil Magic Weapon, is made from five kinds of spiritual fire, and has the power of five turns.
"The reserve price is 6,500 guan, or any two of the Red Blood Xuangang, Purple Yang Fierce Gang, Dirty Blood White Bone Evil, Gengjin Evil Qi, and Golden Dragon Evil, or two metallic or killing natal spell cultivation methods."
The same spell, used by a one-turn mana monk, and used by a nine-turn mana monk, is very different in power, so Zhen Wei emphasized that this "five-fire net" has the power of five turns.
Generally speaking, the power of the created magic weapons is turning, which is also the reason why the price of offensive and defensive magic weapons is generally much lower than that of auxiliary functions.
And if you want to improve the power of magic weapons, you have to rely on the monks to work tirelessly to continue to nourish with their own mana, which is both time-consuming and troublesome.
Auctions all start with relatively low-priced items, although in order to warm up the scene, the first piece on the last boutique is considered normal, but Zhao Chen didn't expect it to be so popular at the beginning.
As far as he knew, a magic weapon like this with a five-turn power could be used as a finale in previous auctions.
"The five-turn Gang Evil Weapon can't be the finale...... So what's going to be the finale? Is it truly supernatural?
"But if there is such a thing, shouldn't it be rumored in advance?"
Zhao Chen thought suspiciously.
……
Inhuman Camp, in the study of Captain Yunyuan.
Yan Hongxia looked at the many letters, telegrams, and even diaries that were found, and her brows tightened.
It's not that these things are useless...... On the contrary, they constitute a complete chain of evidence, which is enough to prove that Yun Yuan has been receiving funding from the North Qishan Serial Village since many years ago, and as an inconspicuous concubine, he was able to stand out and climb step by step to the position of the commander of the Inhuman Battalion.
Moreover, the latest diary also shows that in order to please the great elder of the Yun family, he plans to completely abolish the "Iron General" Lu Qi in the competition, and by the way, establish his prestige in the Inhuman Camp.
But he was worried that he would not be able to defeat the other party, so he agreed to the deal of Xia Wuyan, the owner of the four villages of the North Qishan Chain Village, and agreed to hand over the protective array of Dunhuang to the people of the North Qi Mountain Chain Village for a quarter of an hour...... In exchange for the other party's attack, Lu Qi's strength was consumed.
"It seems logical...... But it's too detailed!
"Is it true that anyone writes all their plans in a diary?"
