Chapter 72: The Auction House
Chapter 72
Through Su Rui's narration, Li Ling knew the reason why the demon clan came here.
On the day of the Yandang Mountain Ten Thousand Demon Conference, someone took advantage of the chaos to sneak in and steal a magic weapon of the demon king.
This magic weapon is very important to the demon king, and the demon king is furious, and specially sent more than a dozen shrewd and capable demon cultivators to disguise themselves and blend into the world to track down the whereabouts of the magic weapon.
Several demon cultivators found out that the magic weapon was stolen by a human youth, but the young man was really cunning, and he escaped the tracking of demon cultivators several times, and crossed the Han country from Wei to get here.
Li Ling didn't tell Su Rui about his affairs, and casually made an excuse, saying that he stayed in the world to repay one person's life-saving grace.
After Su Rui finished speaking, he invited Li Ling to help track down the whereabouts of the magic weapon. ”
Li Ling was reluctant to have too much contact with the demon clan, and refused at the moment because he had something important.
Although Su Rui was a little pity, he was not reluctant, he still had important things to do, so he asked Li Ling to say goodbye.
The two were about to separate, when Su Rui suddenly thought of something, stopped Li Ling, and took out something from his arms.
It was the night pearl that Li Ling gave him that day.
Su Rui: "Brother Xie, do you remember this bead you gave me that day? This is a remarkable thing, it is too valuable, I can't ask for it, and now it will be returned to its original owner." ”
Li Ling was curious and asked Su Rui what this thing was.
"It turns out that you don't know, don't show this bead to anyone in the future. Su Rui forced the bead into Li Ling's hand and said: "The demon king said that this bead is called the Seven Star Bead, there are seven in total, and it can form the Zhou Tian Beidou Great Array, whether it is against the enemy or trapped people, it can receive unexpected miraculous results." ”
Li Ling secretly said that this bead still has such a background, and there are still six on his body, so he gave this bead to Su Rui again, and said with a smile: "Brother Su, you are polite, how can there be a reason to take back the things I gave out, I still have six, you can keep this one, use it for self-defense." ”
Su Rui couldn't refuse, so he had to accept it, but he took out a mask from his body and half of the Heavenly Thunder Talisman, and the Heavenly Thunder Talisman asked Li Ling to defend himself, saying that the mask was refined by the Demon King, and let the demon cultivator wear it when he came to the world to track down the magic weapon.
This mask can not only change the appearance, but also conceal the demonic energy, which is difficult to find unless it is a monk in the middle of the Yuan Infant period and above.
Li Ling accepted it without being polite.
He took a few turns around the auction house, and the later the time, the more good things there were, but the amount of money used for each magic weapon was astronomical, and he couldn't afford the mere 20,000 taels of silver given by the General's Mansion on his current body.
I'm really worried.
"It's better to auction off all the things you got from the Spirit Realm, and scrape together enough money to exchange them for two offensive treasures. ”
Li Ling touched the mustard seed bag on his body, and this idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
Thinking of it, Li Ling came to the backstage of the auction house, found the person in charge of the auction to explain his intentions, and then took out all the things in the mustard seed bag from the spiritual realm and entrusted them to auction them.
These items of Li Ling were all obtained from those people in various sects who were killed by Lingchi and Demon Cultivators in the Spirit Realm, and they may not be good things in the Cultivation Realm, but they are in short supply here.
Moreover, Li Ling was in a hurry to make a move, and specially ordered that it could be auctioned at the lowest price.
The auction house was in charge of the auction by an old man in his fifties, who saw that Li Ling was eager to sell these things, so he came to buy them on behalf of the auction house, Li Ling thought about it and agreed.
This is a small amount of money, but it is the quickest way to monetize these items, and there is no need to pay a commission to the auction house.
After selling all the items to the auction house, Li Ling got a total of 130,000 taels of silver and became a rich man.
After rejecting the enthusiastic accosting of several auction house maids, Li Ling directly auctioned three offensive magic weapons and three medicinal herbs for refining the body.
By this time, it was early in the morning.
These three magic weapons and medicinal materials cost him a total of 128,000, and he returned from a well-off to before liberation.
However, there are three magic weapons with good aggressiveness, plus the turn of the Heavenly Thunder Talisman given by Su Rui before, with these things in his body, it is enough to deal with ordinary masters.
The person who hoped to cast a Yin Fetal Technique on Meng Yuan was just an ordinary Jindan stage monk.
Coming out of the auction house, Li Ling didn't dare to stay longer, and went directly to the General's Mansion.
At this time, three waves of sneaky people appeared behind him, following him from afar.
It seems that the high-profile realizations in the auction house have attracted the attention of some people, who regard him as a fat sheep.
Li Ling secretly regretted that he was too careless, but when the matter was settled, he could only cover up the water with soldiers.
If you can't get rid of these people, then you have to experiment with the power of those three offensive magic weapons.
Li Ling gradually quickened his pace, and the three waves of people also followed closely and followed.
His speed is not comparable to those three waves of people, and the terrain of this capital is complex and there are many buildings, Li Ling deliberately turned around, and after a while, he successfully got rid of those people.
He just breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, the sound of clothes sweeping the wind came from the roof, and Li Ling was startled and hurriedly avoided in the dark.
A gray shadow swept past the roof of the house where Li Ling was hiding, and the speed was extremely fast, and it disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
In a moment, three black shadows swept from a distance and stopped on the roof, and one of the men in black shouted to the other two: "Let's go separately, we have been chasing this kid for three days, this time we must not let him escape." ”
After saying that, the three of them swept in different directions, only the person who spoke was in the direction of the figure just now.
Li Ling saw clearly, and one of the people with short stature was Su Rui.
"These three people are all demon cultivators, could it be that they are the ones who are chasing the ones who stole things from the demon clan?"
Li Ling pondered for a while, and also chased in the direction where the first person had fled, he wanted to find out.
He followed the man in black from a distance, and soon left the city, and saw the shadow of the first man in gray from a distance.
Behind the demon cultivator's spirit,
A faint black light suddenly erupted from his body, as if he had used some kind of secret method, and his speed surged, and he caught up with the gray-clothed man in front of him.
Li Ling didn't dare to get too close, and hid behind a big tree.
The man in gray in front stopped running away and stopped.
This is a man of about thirty, with an ugly face, bright eyes, and a long scar between his eyebrows, which extends to the corners of his mouth, making his face even more hideous.
The tall demon cultivator stopped in front of the gray-clothed man and shouted softly, "Hand over the things you stole from my clan." ”
"Take it yourself if you want. The man in gray looked around and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that even if you get it from me, you won't have the life to leave, and you're not the only one who wants this thing." ”
The tall demon cultivator was stunned, and at this time, there were a few sounds, and there were people from the east, west, and north sides sweeping out of the shadows, divided into three directions, surrounding the demon cultivator and the gray-clothed man in the middle.
There were a total of 12 people who came, two people in the east, six people in the west, all of whom were masked in black scarves and could not see their true faces, and three men and one woman in the north, dressed in Taoist robes, were between 20 and 30 years old, and they looked like cultivators.
As soon as a dozen people arrived, they stared at the man in gray with fierce eyes.
And the demon cultivator had a touch of shock in his eyes, and he couldn't help but clench the weapon in his hand.
