Chapter 70: The Auction

The old man chuckled and said, "There are no wonders in the world, maybe this person is not a person who cultivates the truth, I followed the old master to walk the continent in my early years, and I once saw a strange race in the open land of southern Xinjiang, this race said that people are not human, huge in size, covered with hair, said to be beasts and beasts are very different, southern Xinjiang people call them 'giant clan'. ”

"The giant clan does not have a spiritual vein, but they can also perceive the aura of heaven and earth, not only is it extremely powerful, but its body is even more invulnerable, and its lifespan is as long as a thousand years!"

"I lived with my old master for six years, and then I met the Sea Clan, which only existed in ancient times, in Beihai. ”

"The Sea Clan also does not have a spiritual vein, but this clan, regardless of gender, old or young, can cultivate when they are born, and their strength is far greater than that of humans, the strength of the middle-aged Sea Clan..."

"What Mr. said is a bit far away! How can there be a giant clan or a sea clan in Cangwu? The matter of the spiritual vein cannot be concealed, sir should hurry up and find a way to deal with the next trouble!"

Before the old man could finish speaking, the masked woman interrupted him helplessly.

The old man laughed and said, "It's me who has said a lot, Miss is not strange." Miss is just worried that the various sects will compete with us for the spiritual vein, what's the trouble? As long as the mountain master comes, does Miss still need to worry about these juniors?"

When the woman heard this, her eyes couldn't help but have a different color, and after pondering for a moment, she suddenly shouted to the side, "Xue Chong, you immediately contact my brother and ask him to send a master over as quickly as possible!"

"Yes, Mountain Lord!" Xue Chong heard this, and immediately took the order.

She looked at the scholar and the old man again, and said, "Even if my brother sends someone over, it will be a few days later, and there will be a lot of trouble for the two gentlemen during this time." ”

The two of them laughed and said, "What's the point of this trouble, Miss take a rest for a while, and leave it to us to take care of here." ”

The masked woman nodded, bowed respectfully to the two of them, and then turned to leave.

After she left, the scholar and the old man didn't know what they thought, and their expressions were a little strange.

"Miss has always been stubborn, how could she be unusually this time, and actually really listened to Mr.'s advice and asked the mountain lord for help?" the scholar wondered.

"Maybe she has some regrets about running away from home for so many years, right? In any case, this is a great opportunity for you and me! As soon as the mountain master comes, we will strongly persuade the young lady to return to Qishan, and at that time, the hard days of you and me will come to an end. The old man said with a slight smile.

"That's right! When the young lady ran away from home, I thought she was angry with the mountain owner, and she went back in a few months, but I didn't think that this trip would be ten years, alas, ten years!"

When the scholar said this, he couldn't help but look up at the sky, with an embarrassed look on his face, and seemed to be very depressed.

The old man couldn't help laughing and said, "Although ten years is a long time, what is it to you and me?" Speaking of which, the young lady can do such a thing in just ten years, it is really beyond my expectations, if I leave Canglang Mountain like this, I am really a little reluctant in my heart!"

"It's just that Xue Chong, a stupid boy, is obsessed with Miss, it's really a trouble, maybe after he knows Miss's true identity, he will retreat. ”

......

Five days have passed in a blink of an eye.

As the auction conference approaches, Canglang Mountain is becoming more and more lively, and many masters come from afar, including some strong people, which is an eye-opener for those who are difficult to see masters on weekdays.

However, the arrival of these people is not a good thing for Lin Xi.

Although the Dry Stygian Stone is not the finale of this auction, for the Earth Cultivator, the value of this item is definitely many times higher than that of the finale, and if any rank old monster also takes a fancy to this thing, his situation will be precarious.

You must know that the spirit stones in his hands are nearly a million yuan, and he can definitely be regarded as a rich party among realm monks, but compared to those rank powerhouses, he does not have much confidence. Take Canglang Mountain as an example, that Donglin Fairy has only cultivated to the second order, but he can afford to hold an auction of this scale, and his family foundation will have at least tens of millions of spirit stones.

Early in the morning, he came to the auction venue early, showed the invitation to the guards, and immediately walked into the venue.

The entire venue was shrouded in a strange array, and it was very quiet that it was impossible to see the situation inside from the outside, and the noise outside could not be heard from the inside.

The hall is half-moon-shaped, there are more than ten rows of seats in the hall, a total of more than 100 seats, the innermost is a platform of more than ten zhang large, there are vermilion stalls on it, and there are also lamps hanging high on both sides, a magnificent scene.

When Lin Xi came in, there were already dozens of monks in the hall, but these people were all sitting in the back seats, and they seemed to be very afraid of the seats in the front row.

When Lin Xi saw this scene, his eyes flashed slightly, and he also found an inconspicuous position to sit down, and then began to wait quietly.

The hall was extremely quiet, and everyone looked a little nervous, but it was no wonder that everyone knew that there were many powerhouses in this auction, and these Jindan Realm monks who could walk sideways in Canglang Mountain on weekdays would not end up much better if they were still arrogant at this time.

As for those rank masters, they will naturally not appear until the last moment, otherwise how can they show the demeanor of masters?

Many people speculate that the reason why these powerhouses gathered in Canglang Mountain was most likely because of that spiritual vein, and as for the auction items, they probably didn't look down on them.

As time passed, more and more people walked into the venue, and as for those high-ranking masters, they all came to the hall before the auction began.

At this time, two hours had passed since Lin Xi came here.

Just when almost everyone hooked their heads to look at the few rank masters, the front door of the hall finally closed, and at the same time, on the stone platform in the middle of the hall, two figures flashed out, which were the old man and the young scholar who had appeared before.

Among these two people, the old man's name is Hui Miao Zhenren, and the young scholar is called Tingxu Daochang, who is also a famous person in Canglang Mountain.

The two glanced at each other, and Hui Miao Zhenren took the lead in taking two steps forward, and said with a chuckle, "Welcome to this auction, among you are not only old customers in the past, but also newcomers who participate in the auction for the first time, and several Taoist friends from various sects, you can come, it really makes this auction conference shine!"

His voice is not loud, but it is just enough for the whole audience to hear, and it is deafening unconsciously, and it is not once or twice that he wants to preside over such an auction.

However, as soon as his voice fell, an old man with a wine trough nose in the front row frowned and said unhappily, "I heard that Canglang Mountain is the master of the Donglin Fairy, is it not worth this fairy to come forward in person with so many of our Taoist friends?"

Hearing this, Huimiao Zhenren smiled and said, "This Taoist friend should be the Qinggu Zhenren of Qingxuanmen, Donglin Daoyou is not good at presiding over the auction, if there is any rudeness, please forgive me." ”

The old man snorted and said impatiently, "You also know what I did with a few Taoist friends, to be honest, the old man still can't look down on the auction held in Canglang Mountain!

"Hehe, Daoyou is really a straightforward person! Lingmai will talk about it later, I have long heard that Qinggu Zhenren likes to drink, and all the drinks are century-old wines, this auction, I Canglang Mountain specially prepared a pot of 800-year-old Zhenlong wine for Daoyou, but whether you can grab it depends on the luck of Daoyou!" Huimiao Zhenren said with a chuckle.

"Zhen cage wine, is it really eight hundred years?" When the old man with a wine trough nose heard this, his face suddenly moved, but soon, he regained his composure, and snorted coldly, "Luck? In the auction of Daoyou, I think luck is not as good as strength! I put ugly words in front, who dares to rob me, don't blame the old man for breaking the rules!"

As soon as he heard this Qinggu Zhenren say this, the audience immediately fell silent, and there were naturally some people who loved wine, but if they offended the rank masters because of wine, it would not be enough to give them ten guts.

Hui Miao Zhenren was also a little embarrassed when he saw this scene, and said with a wry smile, "Daoyou said that the rules of the auction naturally can't be broken, but if Daoyou really can't grab it, the old man can only go to Zhenlong Mountain again, pick back Zhenlong fruit to make a good product, and personally send it to Daoyou, but if that's the case, please don't think the year is too short, after all, the eight hundred years of Zhenlang Qiguo is still difficult to get." ”

When Qinggu Zhenren heard this, he glanced at Huimiao Zhenren with some surprise, and snorted lightly, "Daoyou is quite good at doing things, don't be surprised, what you just said is just a joke." ”

Hui Miao Zhenren couldn't help but smile, and at the same time looked at the other people and said, "I have long known that you Taoist friends will come, and I have prepared a lot of treasures for this in Canglang Mountain, and I think it will make your trip worthwhile." ”

When these rank masters heard this, they all nodded with a slight smile, not being overly embarrassed.

The other party put his posture so low, it has already given them enough face, and their purpose is for that spiritual vein, and in the end, they can't say that they have to compete with each other, at that time, the choice of Canglang Mountain is very important.

Hui Miao Zhenren saw everyone's reaction in his eyes, and immediately couldn't help laughing, coughing twice and said, "This auction is presided over by the old man, and the first item to be sold below is a defensive spirit weapon called 'Cloud Piercing Armor', which is made of high-grade gold essence and flowing water formation, piercing through the nine heavens and clouds, and descending into the center of the deep sea, which can withstand the attack of a high-ranking master without the slightest damage, and the starting price is eight hundred spirit stones!"

A superb spirit weapon, and it is also a defensive type, the starting price is only eight hundred spirit stones, which is really much beyond Lin Xi's expectations.

In particular, this spiritual weapon also has the function of escaping and entering the sea, and it can withstand the attacks of rank powerhouses, no matter who it is, I am afraid that it will be very tempted when it hears this price.

Sure enough, as soon as Hui Miao's voice fell, several anxious people quickly bid, and in the blink of an eye, the price of this cloud-piercing armor was raised to nearly two thousand spirit stones.

Throughout the audience, the vast majority of people were very tempted by this cloud-piercing armor, but only the three or four monks who really bid at the beginning, at this time, even fools realized that something was wrong.

As soon as Lin Xi saw this, he immediately extinguished the idea of bidding and scrambling.
