Chapter 107: Black Jade Jane
"There are a lot of people!"
When he walked out of the passage, he was greeted by a rather spacious space, in which a large number of seats were placed in a semi-circular shape, and not far in front of the seat was a circular high platform, behind which there was a passage connected to the dark place.
"Let's find a seat and wait for the auction to begin!"
Su Fengxiao, who was wearing a monkey head mask, turned around and said a word to Liyang, then went directly into the arena and found a seat to sit down.
Li Yang nodded, and after entering the field, he also found a seat next to Su Fengxiao and sat down, and looked at the people in the field a little, and found that they were all wearing masks, and it was impossible to distinguish who was with whom.
While they were waiting, there were still people wearing masks and sitting down, and most of them were silent, only a few people were talking in low voices.
After about half an hour, the number of people entering the field gradually decreased, and the seats in the field were almost full.
"It should be almost started!"
When no one entered the venue again, Su Fengxiao whispered to Liyang.
Sure enough, as soon as Su Fengxiao's voice fell, the light and shadow on the high platform flashed, and a figure appeared.
Liyang didn't notice how the other party appeared, and when he looked closely, he was still a beautiful young woman with a graceful demeanor, and on the sideburns that were pulled up, a golden step shook slightly with the light movement of her steps.
"Concubine Shan Qian, today's auction will be presided over by the concubine, I hope all the Taoist friends present can gain something!"
Shan Qian stopped when he walked to the middle of the high platform, with a gentle smile on his face, and after his beautiful eyes swept over the nearly a thousand monks under the high platform, he continued:
"Presumably many Taoist friends are in a hurry, and the auction will begin!"
After speaking, Shan Qian patted her palm, and on the passage connected to the high platform, a girl in a Luo shirt held a tray covered with yellow cloth in both hands and walked up to the high platform.
"In this jade bottle is Zhuji Dan, there are three in one bottle, there are three bottles of nine, one starting price is five hundred spirit stones, three bottles are auctioned in three times, each time the price is not less than fifty spirit stones, let's start!"
Shan Qian lifted the yellow cloth with one hand, revealing the three jade bottles on the tray, and after a brief introduction, the auction began.
"I'll bid for two thousand five hundred spirit stones, and I'll only bid for one bottle!"
As soon as Shan Qian's words fell, someone immediately made a bid, and directly raised the spirit stone to two thousand five hundred, which silenced the monk who also wanted to bid, and no one else participated in the bidding.
"Two thousand five hundred spirit stones at a time!"
"Two thousand five hundred spirit stones twice!"
"Two thousand five hundred spirit stones three times, congratulations to this Taoist friend for getting the first bottle of Tsukidan, if you are in a hurry, please go to the back to deliver the spirit stone, you can take the bid, if you are not in a hurry, you can also wait until the end of the auction to deliver the spirit stone!"
Shan Qian's beautiful eyes swept a deep glance at the bidder, seeing that no one continued to bid, and after three routine inquiries, he directly announced the ownership of the first bottle of Tsukidan.
"I'm going to get to the back and close the deal!"
After the host announced the ownership of the first bottle of Tsukidan, the bidder finally breathed a sigh of relief, and without hesitation, he planned to complete the transaction immediately.
Because he has been stuck in the Great Perfection of Qi Cultivation for more than ten years, he directly quoted a high price in one go, and also stated that it only needs one bottle, so other interested bidders did not bid with him.
"Okay, please follow him to the back to complete the transaction!"
Shan Qian nodded, and at the same time, a monk from the auction hall walked out and led the bidder to the back.
"This man is quite decisive!"
Su Fengxiao watched the figure of the bidder of the first bottle of Tsukidan disappear into the auction room, and exclaimed in a low voice.
Liyang was still a little strange why no one else came out to bid, but at this moment, listening to what Su Fengxiao said, the confusion in his heart was instantly solved:
"The bidder's bid just now should have exceeded the value of this Tsukidan itself, and he only said that he would buy one bottle, and there were two bottles left, so the others acquiesced!"
"Two thousand three hundred spirit stones three times, congratulations to this fellow Daoist for getting the third bottle of Tsukidan!"
Just as Liyang and Su Fengxiao exchanged in a low voice, the last two bottles of Zhuji Dan were also traded, except for the first bottle that was sold for 2,500 spirit stones, the final bidding price of the other two bottles was under 2,500 spirit stones.
And with the opening three bottles of Tsukidan auctioned out, soon another girl in a Luo shirt came to the high platform with a new tray, this time the tray was a wooden box, and Shan Qian immediately opened the wooden box:
"The next auction is a medium-grade magic weapon, with a starting price of seven hundred spirit stones, and each increase in price must not be less than one hundred spirit stones!"
After another introduction to the lots, a new round of bidding began.
"I'll give you eight hundred spirit stones!"
"Nine hundred spirit stones!"
"One thousand and one hundred spirit stones!"
The appearance of this second auction item gradually ignited the atmosphere of the auction hall, and all the monks bid one after another, and soon the second auction was also taken.
As the bidding items appeared one by one, the atmosphere in the field continued to soar, and the bidding items became more abundant, such as elixirs, magic weapons, spirit grasses, spirit runes, and even all kinds of things that Li Yang had never seen before, all of which were presented to the auction table for auction one by one.
"Brother Su, don't you have anything you want to bid on?"
Listening to the sound of bidding in the auction hall one after another, Li Yanghu asked Su Feng in a loud voice.
"No, I'm just here to join in the fun, and besides, I'm not well prepared, and I don't have so many spirit stones to bid with others!"
Su Fengxiao shook his head and said, Usually when an auction is held, the auctioneer will notify a period of time in advance and release some news of the auction items, so as to prepare spirit stones for the monks who are interested in bidding, but he and Liyang didn't know that there was an auction until today, and they didn't make any preparations at all, so they could only join in the fun.
At this time, another auction item was presented to the high platform.
"Next, what is auctioned is a jade slip, which records a sword technique, and the starting price is three thousand spirit stones!"
Suddenly hearing the introduction of this auction item, Liyang's eyes, who were talking to Su Fengxiao in a low voice, suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly put his eyes on the tray held by the girl in Luo shirt on the high platform, only to see a black jade slip on it.
"Why is this jade slip a little different?"
When he saw the black jade slips in the tray, Liyang's eyes showed a suspicious look, because the jade slips he saw in the fang market were all green in color, but the jade slips auctioned at the moment were black.
"Are you interested in this jade slip, but no one in the audience seems to have the intention of bidding!"
Seeing Liyang's reaction when he looked up at the high platform, Su Fengxiao noticed something, his eyes swept over the monks in the field, and found that the auction hall with a warm atmosphere was a lot quieter because of this auction item, so he reminded Liyang.
"This jade slip is from an ancient cave mansion, just because the sword technique inside is a little flawed, but it also has great reference value for sword cultivation!"
Regarding the reaction of the monks in the field, Shan Qian did not show surprise, but introduced the black jade slip again, hoping that someone who didn't know about the black jade slip would buy it.
"Look, it's been a long time, and still no one is willing to bid for this black jade slip, it seems that this jade slip is not as simple as a little flaw, and it can't be said to be a failed auction!"
Seeing that there was still no one bidding, Su Fengxiao whispered to Liyang again.
And Liyang also realized this, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that there was something wrong with the sword technique in this black jade slip? And it seems that most of the monks in this case seem to have a certain understanding of this black jade slip.
ps: I'm sorry to say to everyone here, because I have to take subject 2 on the 11th, and I have to practice driving after work at night recently, so the next update will be unstable.
