Adventures in the Human World Chapter 3 The Qian Auction
The monk glanced at Zhou Xiang, flipped through the information and said, "No, but the person who posted the task left a message saying that if you are interested, you can find a monk surnamed Chen at the Yingxian Inn in five days."
Zhou Xiang wrote it down, turned around again, and left the guild.
The next day, Qian came up to visit, gave Zhou Xiang a jade plaque and a cloak, and invited him to participate in the auction the day after tomorrow.
On the day of the auction, Wei Liangchen and Qian Qi rushed to the venue early in the morning, Zhou Xiang went out of the inn alone, found a remote corner, and covered the cloak that Qian Qi gave him, according to the other party, this is a magic weapon that can block the vision and divine sense, in order to prevent the winner of the auction from being targeted by someone with a heart, the monk will generally buy a cover outside before entering.
There are several entrances to the auction hall, Zhou Xiang casually chose a queue, and after entering, there was an aisle, with a lot of seats next to it, and a few counters selling some things, Zhou Xiang glanced at it, it was actually the kind of cloak he was wearing, it seemed that the auction house was quite thoughtful.
Zhou Xiang didn't stop in the aisle for long, he stepped into the venue and found a random seat in the area prepared for Qi Refining Cultivators.
After sitting down, Zhou Xiang looked around and found that there were many hidden rooms in the hall, which should be special VIP seats for some monks. When he was in the Huangquan Realm, he enjoyed this kind of treatment behind Chang Gongzi. There is also a high platform in the middle of the auction hall, which is still empty. Zhou Xiang observed for a while, then closed his eyes and waited for the auction to begin.
As the auction time approached, the surrounding seats gradually filled with monks who had come to participate in the auction, and there were also monks on the second floor who entered the private room one after another. After a while, there was a chime, and two teams of men in uniform lined up and lined up around the central auction table, and then four stunning women stepped forward and stood on the four corners, and finally a woman with a high bun and a bewitching posture slowly came to the stage wearing a one-piece red dress. With the appearance of this woman, countless pairs of eyes on and off the stage immediately focused on it, some eyes seemed to want to tear this woman's gorgeous red dress as hot, and several divine senses swept obscenely towards this woman's body, but the long skirt seemed to be made of some special material, which could not only fully highlight this woman's tempting body, but also isolate the exploration of divine consciousness.
Seeing the unconcealed or obscene or admiring gazes of the monks around him, Zhou Xiang knew that this auction was at least half of the success, and at present, many male monks will definitely spare no effort in the auction, even if they can't win the favor of the beauty, they must not lose face in front of the beauty.
After the beautiful woman in the red dress slowly stepped onto the stage, she smiled lightly around, and her red lips slightly revealed two rows of teeth, which was even more glamorous, and more than half of the male monks were petrified in an instant.
"Welcome to my Qian family auction house, to participate in this auction, the little woman Qian Qiuyan is the host of the auction, this is also the first time the little woman presided over the auction, I hope you have a lot of honors, the little girl is here to thank you in advance. After speaking, she blessed the surroundings, and at the same time, a pair of big eyes slowly swept across the audience, and the male cultivators who were swept by her gaze were all excited and obsessed.
Zhou Xiang nodded, it turned out that this woman was Qian Qiuyan in the mouth of Gongzi Wei, and she was indeed a big beauty.
"Here are the first lots of this auction. After Qian Qiuyan finished saluting, she straightened up and said loudly. As soon as the words fell, I saw a beautiful woman holding a delicate jade plate in her hand and gently placing it on the wooden case of the auction table. Everyone looked one after another, but they saw five jade bottles in the tray, and they didn't know what was inside.
"The first lot is five bottles of spiritual qi refining body fluid, after taking it, you can wash the muscles and cut the marrow, increase cultivation, temper the body, it is definitely the best choice for qi refining monks to improve their skills, the spiritual liquid is refined by the three-grade Danshi Long Rui who has been certified by the Dan League, its side effects are only half of the original, but the effect has doubled, it can be said to be the best in the spiritual qi refining body fluid, the starting price of this thing is two thousand spirit stones, and each increase in price shall not be less than one hundred spirit stones, okay!
Before Qian Qiuyan's words were finished, the bottom began to discuss with an uproar.
I heard that among the several families nearby, only the Qian family has such a one, and the rest of the families are either second-grade alchemists, or first-grade and alchemy apprentices. ”
"Yes, and it has been recognized by the Dan League, it's amazing! This aura refining body fluid effect must be extraordinary, but the starting price is two thousand, which is really expensive! All the spirit stones on my body don't add up to this number. ”
"Alas, who made us poor, you and I are not core children, there are only a few spirit stones per month, and we can't afford to save for more than ten years. ”
"Wow, that's not the second child of the Gao family, he opened his mouth with four thousand spirit stones, he is really rich!"
"People are more angry than people. I hope he buys it back and explodes to death!"
Zhou Xiang was speechless when he heard it, it turned out that the family was also divided into three, six, nine and so on, not to mention its disciples, these two had saved a net worth of less than two thousand spirit stones for more than ten years, and the disciple of the Gao family called four thousand when he opened his mouth, and the gap between the two was very obvious.
However, Zhou Xiang also gained a layer of knowledge, it turned out that in addition to the grade of the pill, there was also a Dan League that was specifically responsible for assessing the level of alchemists, it was the first time I had heard of it.
Just when Zhou Xiang was watching the excitement, the refining body liquid had been auctioned away by the second child of the Gao family at the price of five thousand spirit stones. The first lot was more than doubled in price, and the conference was off to a good start.
Qian Qiuyan smiled happily, almost fascinated many male cultivators in the audience, and they worked even harder to raise the price, and soon the second lot was also auctioned off at a high price. Zhou Xiang was not interested in these things, because they were all items used by Qi refining cultivators. After all, this place is only a family market, and the service objects are several families within a radius of 100 miles, which limits the grade of the lots. Especially when a first-grade foundation pill caused several foundation building monks on the second floor to scramble, Zhou Xiang felt even more bored.
In fact, it was also because he was too far-sighted to know the fierceness of the Terran monks' competition for resources. With the gradual lack of spiritual energy for thousands of years, the elixirs and exercises are basically strongly monopolized by first- and second-rate forces, and those monks with sects or families are better, able to receive a few to dozens of spirit stones every month, while ordinary casual cultivators have no stable source of income at all, and can only find ways to obtain spirit stones. Even if they become foundation building cultivators, if they are good, they can have hundreds of thousands of spirit stones, and if they are poor, they will only have tens of thousands, not to mention the elixirs that are even more lacking than spirit stones. Being able to meet the Foundation Cultivation Pill available to the Tsukiji Cultivator at the auction in the remote Fang City was simply a stroke of luck for them, even if they spent their entire net worth.
Just when Zhou Xiang was lacking interest, the auction house took out another item.
I only heard that Qian Qiuyan introduced: "Ladies and gentlemen, this lot is a treasure sent by a monk in our auction house, and its name is Beast Grass!"
As soon as this name came out, the audience immediately began to discuss again. I have heard that this grass will emit a strange fragrance when it is ripe, and if those beasts smell this fragrance, they will rush to come and try to swallow this grass, because it is said to have some effect on opening the spirit of beasts. ”
"Don't those monks who live near Yuanling like to hunt some demon beasts, this grass should be put up for auction there. ”
"It's just that several families on our side have been comfortable for too long, who will hunt demon beasts. ”
As they expected, the grass was almost unpopular after the auction began, and it was finally sold off by a mysterious monk at the starting price.
"The following is the last lot of this auction!" Qian Qiuyan suddenly raised her tone, the auction can be said to be very successful so far, as long as this last lot is successfully auctioned, her first hosting can draw a successful end, and then not only will there be a rich reward, but also her status in the family can be further improved in the future.
Everyone in the audience and the monks in the private room also cheered up, wanting to see what kind of treasure this last lot was, and how it could be regarded as the finale.
I saw a tall beauty holding a delicate box and walked out and put it on the auction table, and another beauty handed a key to Qian Qiuyan, Qian Qiuyan inserted the key into the lock hole, turned it a few times and gently lifted the lid of the box to open it, showing in front of everyone was actually a sculpture of a black bear.
Zhou Xiang couldn't help but be a little strange, it was the first time he had seen this kind of thing, could it be some kind of magic weapon? Why did it make it into an animal statue? After scanning the divine sense, he found that it did not have any spiritual power fluctuations.
Except for a very few people in the audience, the monks in the audience had never seen such a magic weapon, and after a few discussions, they all quieted down and listened to Qian Qiuyan's introduction.
