Volume 3 The Crossing of the Sea Chapter 76 The Golden Water Spring
Liubo City sits on a sloping strip from high to low, like a giant beast crawling in a lava lake, and the gate is located in the direction of the lower city.
Shang Qi took a closer look and found that the foundation under the entire city seemed to be in the shape of a huge bull's head, which should be the legendary Kui Niu.
Because of the conflict with Qian Fei, the red-clothed man of the Qian family, Shang Qi didn't want to have another senseless incident, so he changed his appearance to Zhang Baozai again, and walked into Liubo City with a curious face.
There are really a lot of people coming in and out, some come to find opportunities, some come to enjoy the scenery, and the world of monks is actually no different from mortals.
The guards on duty at the city gate are all cultivators of the transcendent realm, and they all look unruly, and everyone who encounters a low level of cultivation is a high-ranking person.
Shang Qi shook his head, ignored it, handed over ten Yuan Crystals and walked in. happened to meet Qian Fei and reprimanded the guard: "Keep my eyes open and watch carefully, and report to the ...... as soon as I find the person I confessed to you."
The guards should be repeatedly.
Shang Qi looked at Qian Fei with strange eyes, and said secretly: "I'm right in front of you, but it's a pity that you don't know the goods!"
The city is not small, and the streets are lively enough, with people mostly gathered in groups of threes and twos, and there are still mainly low-ranking monks, and there are all kinds of shops and stalls along the streets.
The reason why this is so is very big because this is a famous black market in the cultivation world, and there are almost no things that cannot be traded, and the premise is to have enough strength to take things away.
Although Liubo Mountain is very chaotic, but in this Liubo City, due to the strong suppression of the five major forces, it is relatively peaceful, and there is no certain strength, and ordinary people do not dare to make trouble.
Shang Qi walked up the main street, occasionally paying attention to the crowded area and listening to what they were saying. However, the most discussed thing is what happened recently in the East China Sea.
Shang Qi heard that it was all related to him, the Yingzhou Rebellion, the encirclement and suppression of pirates, and even a newly discovered major event, someone issued a shadow hunt and kill order for the entire East China Sea.
Nowadays, almost all the shadow assassins are gathered in the East China Sea, and many arrogant people have suddenly disappeared without a trace, probably because of them.
It's just that everyone can't figure out who would be so generous and invite the entire Shadow Organization, which is definitely not something ordinary people can do.
The high-level leaders of the East China Sea were also shaken, and sent various representatives to contact the high-level figures of the Shadow Organization, but the other party kept avoiding it, and for a while, the East China Sea was turbulent, and few people went out alone.
Knowing this, Shang Qi was relieved, at least in the short term, Donghai had no time to think about the matter of returning to the Mountain Sect, the sect would be safe, and Shang Qi would have no worries for the time being.
Another piece of news aroused Shang Qi's interest, the Qian family was going to hold an auction tonight, and I heard that there was a valuable thing to be taken out to participate in the auction, and Fusang had already sent someone to come, and threatened to get it.
It is related to Fusang Kingdom, which is also what Shang Qi is concerned about, sooner or later he will have to go to the Cloud Rain Palace, and Shang Qi hopes to find some clues from here.
Shang Qi is now pretending to be Zhang Baozai, and he doesn't know many people, so he slowly looks around the city. After inquiring about the direction, he walked in the direction of Wuhua Pavilion in the city.
Wuhua Pavilion Auction House is an important industry of the Qian family, integrating commodity exchange and trading, as well as large-scale auctions, and is also the largest auction house in the city, the auction reputation is not bad, and people are very willing to entrust the target here.
Looking at the three words of Wuhua Pavilion, Shang Qi was surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that there would be such a magnificent building in such a remote place, with eaves and arches, solemn weather, and endless guests.
Shang Qi was about to walk in, when his heart suddenly moved, looking at the end of the city, and at the same time, his divine consciousness spread, and he saw that there was a small square there, and there was a fountain in the middle.
The moment he saw this fountain, Shang Qi felt that the water gushing out of the fountain was unusual, and in curiosity, he quickly came to the spring, and the spring water bubbled upward, and a layer of mist was filled around it.
The spring is the thickness of an adult's body, and it is impossible to see the depth, and the divine sense cannot even penetrate into it. Shang Qi was amazed and stepped forward to touch the spring with his hands.
"Stop!" Suddenly, an eager voice came from behind him.
Shang Qi was stunned for a moment, feeling that the voice was a little familiar, paused, turned his head and looked back.
"Meng Ruoqing!"
Shang Qi was surprised in his heart that he would meet an acquaintance here, but with Shang Qi's current appearance, no one would recognize him.
"You don't want to die, you dare to touch the water of Jinshui Spring!"
Meng Ruoqing saw Shang Qi stop and seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
"So it's called Jinshui Spring! Why can't you touch it?"
Shang Qi smiled faintly, Meng Ruoqing was still the same as when she first met, with the demeanor of an eldest sister, but her aura was much stronger than before, and she should have not stopped practicing since she was separated.
"The gold of the five elements, killing the world, gold and water are born together, and all things are dissolved, this is the water of the five elements of gold!" Meng Ruoqing patiently explained, for fear that Shang Qi would not understand.
"The water of the five elements of gold, how much gold does it take to generate a fountain of this size?"
Shang Qi's eyes were shining, and he pulled off a hair and slowly put it into the water, and in the blink of an eye, the hair turned into nothingness.
Shang Qi gasped, looked at Meng Ruoqing gratefully, and thanked him again and again, but he was full of interest in the bottom of the fountain, because the gold of the five elements was also the rarest among the entire five elements.
"I suggest you don't fight the idea of this golden water spring, every year outsiders like you don't know how many inexplicably die here. Meng Ruoqing saw Shang Qi's fiery eyes, so she reminded.
"Thanks for reminding me, I'm in my own hands. Shang Qi remembered that when he was in the Shambhala Kingdom, Meng Ruoqing looked at his eyes, and sighed secretly in his heart: "It's better not to recognize each other for the time being." ”
"You're welcome, when I saw you just now, I seemed to feel a hint of familiarity, but suddenly it was gone, alas, probably I recognized the wrong person, you can do it yourself!"
Shang Qi was shocked in his heart, and said secretly: "How can women do this trick, He Yao a few days ago was too, and he recognized him at a glance." ”
Then he asked Meng Ruoqing curiously: "Why are you here, are you from this Liubo City?"
"This is my grandmother's house, I often come here to play, okay, I won't tell you, you take care, Liubo Mountain is very messy......" Meng Ruoqing said and walked away.
Shang Qi looked at the direction Meng Ruoqing left, and after a long time, he looked at Jinshui Spring again. The following must be the gold of the five elements, but you need to find a way to go down smoothly.
Look at the time, the auction of Wuhua Pavilion should start soon, Shang Qi temporarily put down the matter of Jinshui Spring, after all, it is there, it will not run, and it is not too late to come when he thinks of a way.
The rules of the auction house are simple, as long as you have enough money, no matter who you are, you can be treated with great courtesy.
Shang Qi didn't intend to act in a low-key manner, and directly showed his storage bag, which contained a heavy Yuan Jing Stone, which shocked the guys who received him, and said secretly: "I don't know where this is the Second Ancestor?"
I still didn't feel safe like this, so I simply took out two small jade bottles and threw them directly to the guy: "Look, let's make a price!"
After the guy took it, he opened the lid and put it in front of his nose to smell it, and suddenly his color changed, and he stammered: "You...... Slightly...... Wait!"
After a while, the guy called an old man, a cultivator in the middle of the Yuan Infant.
The old man looked at Shang Qi curiously: "This fellow Daoist, here is the shopkeeper below, these pills you took out, the quality is relatively rare on the market, I don't know if you plan to entrust the auction, or sell it directly to our store?"
"Naturally, which is the best deal, which method to use. Shang Qi faced the cultivation of the old man in the middle of the infant, and there was no sense of pressure at all, which made the old man's heart move, "People can't be good-looking!"
"Thanks to Daoyou for lifting our store, in my opinion, it will be auctioned, these ten pills of the Divine Pill, ten pills of the Infant Pill can also be auctioned for two million yuan of spar. The old man looked at the two small jade bottles, and his eyes flickered.
"Then please!" Shang Qi said lightly.
Then the old man arranged for his man to take Shang Qi into a private room in the auction hall, surrounded by a formation to prevent others from probing.
The auction hall was almost full, crowded with people, especially in the surrounding private rooms, which exuded a strong coercion.
There are very few people here who use their divine sense to probe others, and that is a big taboo, unless they are confident enough in their own cultivation, and Shang Qi still understands this rule.
It's just that what Shang Qi didn't know was that not long after he sat down in the private room, a message had already reached Yingzhou, and someone suspected of being Zhang Baozai appeared in Liubo City to auction the pill.
"It's so bold, it's too arrogant......" Yingzhou let out an angry roar.
A short time later, the auction officially began, and the shopkeeper walked up from the backstage, followed by two sexy beauties, each holding a tray covered with a red cloth.
The shopkeeper smiled slightly: "Fellow Daoists, welcome to our store, the rules are still the same as before, don't talk nonsense." The first thing to auction today is two kinds of pills, the Nourishing Pills and the Infant Pill, ten pills each......"
Then the red cloth on the tray was lifted, revealing two small jade bottles, each with a Ying character written on it.
There was an uproar below, and they all felt strange, they didn't expect that there would be Yingzhou's pills in this auction, you know, in the past, this level of pills was bought in Yingzhou with money, and people generally didn't sell them.
And this time it was twenty grains in one breath, I don't know what kind of wind to smoke, but it was a surprise for buyers.
Shang Qi didn't expect that every round of auction was his own pill, and under normal circumstances, the first ones to take out were worthless.
In fact, the shopkeeper has his own plans, and the Yingzhou Danta turmoil is in a uproar, and even gives a seal to the entire East China Sea, and anyone who dares to buy and sell Yingzhou Dan medicine privately will be regarded as the common enemy of the East China Sea.
Therefore, the shopkeeper asked people to go to Yingzhou in advance to report the news, and on the other hand, he wanted to facilitate the auction as soon as possible in order to collect benefits.
Soon, buyers increased the price one after another, and finally a pill was marked at a sky-high price of 200,000 yuan.
Shang Qi was deeply shocked, he didn't expect to sell for such a high price, and at the same time secretly regretted it, worried that he had taken out too much, and would it cause others to covet it?
