Chapter 148: The Technique of Deflating the Wallet

"Today's first auction item is ......" After selling for a while, Luo Ying smiled and revealed the answer, "A relic left by Sun Yan, the late Grandmaster of the Eastern Continent and the elder of the North Peak of Wangyun Pavilion. This item is a common preparation note for Elder Sun's apprenticeship, and we have decided to include it in this auction after receiving the commission of his family and the permission of the sect. The starting price of this auction is 80 ingots, and the auction begins! ”

There was another sound of ear-to-ear exchange in the audience, and some young monks and lay monks were a little eager to try.

However, the old fritters who were more experienced in the rivers and lakes did not move, they knew very well in their hearts that what could make Wangyun Pavilion agree to take it out for auction would never have any unique secret method such as pie from heaven. In addition, the notes used to teach the children are not of much use to them.

In the fifth box, Chen Zhu, Shi Cheng and Tie didn't have any interest in this thing, that is, Wu Neng's eyes lit up alone.

"Old Shi, Grandmaster's notes, aren't you curious about what secrets will be inside?"

"Old Wu, think about it, what kind of valuable manuscript notes will be that can get the other sects to agree to take them out for auction? It's still used to prepare for classes, at most it's a rigorous version of "The Hundred Days of the Sect's Annual Examination" or something. Shi Cheng didn't bother to lift his eyelids.

"However, it is still useful for a monk like Wu Neng who is still in the martial arts realm, although the age of laying the foundation has passed, but at least it can still help him touch the edge of the cultivator realm." Iron Mask said expressionlessly.

Wu Neng scratched his head a little embarrassed and smiled flatteringly, "Lao Shi, otherwise, let's shoot it first, and treat it as if I owe you, and what if I pay you back when I am developed?" As you know, I don't have much energy to use here in the martial arts, and if I don't have a major opportunity, I'm afraid I won't have anything to enter in this life. But if you have this book, plus the guidance of you and Lao Tie, it will be different, and you don't want to be held back by my three-legged cat kung fu. ”

"Why are you so modest today?" Shi Cheng asked with a squinted eye.

"To be honest, I've had this idea since the last time I fought against the Lu Clan in Zhisha Mountain, and sometimes it can't all be relied on...... Well, that kind of thaumaturgy, the road ahead is so dangerous, it's not a bad thing to have one more skill. With that, Wu Neng secretly glanced at Chen Zhu, and only relieved himself after confirming that he hadn't noticed that he had almost leaked his mouth.

"It's rare that Lao Wu is so conscious, it seems that I have to take out this wallet today." Shi Cheng straightened up, took out his wallet from the storage bag on his waist, slapped a scroll of treasure banknotes on the table, and said to Chen Zhu, "Elder Chen, this is four hundred and fifty ingots of Tongbao, I'm sorry for you." ”

At this moment, the price of the central auction has risen to two hundred and thirty ingots, Luo Ying asked with a smile: "The twenty-third guest bid two hundred and thirty, may I ask who else plans to increase the price?" ”

There was a bell ringing from above everyone, and many old rivers and lakes looked up with some surprise, because it seemed that few of the distinguished guests sitting there would start throwing money at the beginning of the auction.

A middle-aged man's quotation voice came from room five, "Two hundred and four." ”

"Guest No. 5 offers two hundred and forty, do you have any other offers?"

A monk from a short family offered two hundred and forty-five, but died down after Room 5 did not hesitate to quote the price of two hundred and five.

Luo Ying asked everyone twice, but received no response, firstly, the value of this notebook body was not particularly great in the eyes of everyone, and secondly, the guests sitting below would not offend the distinguished guests sitting on the third floor at the auction at the beginning of the conference.

"That's good, guest five, two hundred and five, deal!" She smiled and dropped the hammer.

In this way, this notebook was taken by Shi Cheng and the others, Shi Cheng flattened his mouth, looking at the two hundred ingots Tongbao handed back by Chen Zhu in his hand, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Chen Zhu said with a smile: "If the elders in charge of teaching in our sect know that someone will spend so much money to buy a textbook, then there is no need for those bookkeepers who are looking for money to lobby them, they themselves are afraid that they will take out the manuscripts that occupy the space in the study and sell them, even if they can't sell them at the same price as the grandmaster's manuscripts, they can at least earn a hundred and eighty ingots." ”

Soon, a waiter knocked on the door, Chen Zhu and he handed over the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, and after the waiter left, Wu Neng got the notebook as he wished.

At this time, the auction of the second item in the venue has begun, the second item is a string of beads that can be stored, and the magic weapon of space is rare, and soon, the enthusiasm of the guests to bid exceeded the previous round.

"Old Shi, it's a magic weapon for storage, let's ......" Wu Neng didn't finish speaking, and met Shi Cheng's kind gaze, "Old Wu, don't forget what we're here for today, I don't have the money to wrap up the entire auction." ”

The storage bead was finally auctioned off by an elder of a second-rate sect, and the final bid was three hundred and ten ingots.

Shi Cheng knew in his heart that the auction of Huibao Pavilion was all C-grade auction items at the beginning, although it was worth a lot of money to ordinary monks, but for monks of his realm, it was an ordinary thing.

Sure enough, one after another, one after another spiritual treasures that were discarded in Shi Cheng's eyes but tasteless were auctioned off, although Wu Neng had been feeling sorry in his ears, but Shi Cheng's reason and concentration finally made him press his wallet.

Listening to the sound of bidding in the venue, Shi Cheng's heart suddenly appeared some very complicated feelings, he remembered the Zhang Erhei family he met in Redwood City, the pie seller ran around the streets and alleys against the wind and sand all day long, just to sell the pies priced at six black iron coins, and in this auction hall, behind every bidding, was a spendthrift worth hundreds of Wei Guotongbao.

The C-class lots were finally sold, and after a short recess, the second session of the auction began.

Some of the cultivators who had spent all their possessions in the first auction had already left, but there were also some who stayed to see the excitement. After a crisp bell, Luo Ying reappeared in the venue, this time the counter placed next to her looked more radiant than the previous counter.

"This is the first auction item of the second session, a piece of the Crystal King from the Ten Thousand Miles Mountain Plains!"

Shi Cheng raised his head, and like all the auctioneers in the venue now, he couldn't wait to look at the counter beside Luo Ying.

The so-called Crystal King is a term invented by the big miners in the Eastern Continent to refer to the highest quality spirit crystals dug up in a certain mining area in a year, and these extremely high-quality spirit crystals will be sold for high prices in auction houses on various continents after they are certified. The Union Khanate used to have such activities, but they disappeared from the territory of the Union Khanate after the Yujing City issued a decree to tighten the control of the mining areas within the territory of the Okami Castle ten years ago. Therefore, although Shi Cheng can be regarded as well-informed, there are not many opportunities to see such a crystal king as an auction with his own eyes.

Luo Ying is still introducing the crystal king in the glass cover, "This crystal king is produced in the Alwu Mountain mining area of the Sete country, and it was produced last year, that is, in the fourteenth year of Jian'an. After the joint appraisal of the professionals of the Huibao Pavilion and the elder of the Qingyun Sect, Lu Qi, the grade of the Crystal King was as follows. ”

A deacon not far from Luo Ying's left hand held up a certificate in his hand, which was covered with the bright red and translucent Great Seal of the Huibao Pavilion and the seal of the Qingyun Sect Library.

"The net weight of the whole stone is 42 catties, 11 28 points, the average spirit content is between 21 and 25 percent, and the compatibility with the human body is between 70 and 75 percent."

Everyone's eyes widened, and many of the monks who had been unable to break through the realm for a long time were already short of breath.

For the unique ore such as Spirit Crystal Mine, as long as the spirit content is more than 5%, it is not considered a waste mine, and more than 7% can be used for the workshop industry. Therefore, ores with a spirit content of 21 to 25 percent are definitely the best of the best. As for the indicator of human body fit, its meaning is how much energy in the ore can be used by the cultivator's body.

"Old stone, old stone, quick! That's it, please, I just calculated in my heart, as long as I can shoot that piece of ore, my armor can recover to 20% of its original combat power. ”

"Why is it only two? What is your suit of armor made of, and how is it like a bottomless pit? Muttering, Shi Cheng still forced himself to take his wallet out of the storage bag.

"By the way, Brother Shi, what are you buying this ore for? I don't think you look like people with professional handling equipment. After hearing the conversation between Shi Cheng and Wu Neng, Chen Zhu's curiosity also came up.

Shi Cheng didn't plan to reveal to Chen Zhu that Wu Neng was a descendant of Yanmen, he used to be idle and bored, and he also saw an introduction to the fall of Yanmen when he was looking through the classics in the Pharmacist Chamber of Commerce, although the author of that book didn't know who was behind it, but judging from some clues recorded in the book, it seemed that the person who presided over the destruction of Yanmen seemed to be a very huge force.

It's not that Shi Cheng didn't think about whether the black hand that destroyed Yanmen would have anything to do with the Lu clan, after all, the Spirit Snake Society that appeared in the Bai Family Ancestral Hall also participated in the attack on Yanmen.

But after thinking about it, Shi Cheng still denied this idea for the time being, he still has that point of view, and the remnants of the Lu clan who are currently dormant do not have so much energy. The Spirit Snake Society is a group of killers that anyone can hire, they work for the big families in the east of Zhuangzi today, and they can also work for the big families in the west tomorrow, and they can't make any conclusions until they find new clues.

Therefore, in order not to create new trouble, Shi Cheng decided to find a set of words to prevaricate for the time being, so he began to talk nonsense: "That's the case, Lao Wu has a set of family refining methods, which can directly refine the energy of spirit crystals into ordinary weapons and armor to achieve the effect of strengthening, although it is very time-consuming and laborious, but it is still very effective." Deacon Xu sent me a brochure for this auction in the letter I sent me earlier, and after seeing Youjing Wang, we decided to try to auction it at the auction. ”

"And this kind of thaumaturgy? Straight into it? Chen Zhu was taken aback, his heart was a little itchy, and he wanted to ask about it, but when he thought that this was Wu Neng's family heirloom technique, he finally dispelled his desire to ask what was going on.

At this moment, the sound of quotations in the venue came and went, and the extremely high-quality crystal king was very precious, and the price quickly pushed to as much as six hundred ingots.

Shi Cheng took out the treasure money from his wallet one by one, and he sighed in his heart as he looked at the slimmed wallet.

"Guest 16 bid 615 ingots, do you have any other offers?"

Shi Cheng looked out the window, and put back his left hand, which was originally going to stuff his wallet back into the storage bag, and his right hand, which was a little trembling, pointed out another treasure note with a denomination of ten ingots from his pocket.
