Chapter 47: The Monk's Auction
After flying at sea for three days in a row, Li Qianmo was already extremely sleepy, and soon after falling on the bed, he snored.
There was nothing to say all night, he got up the next day, he thought about it and had nothing to do, it was better to buy some medicinal materials and come back to alchemy, in this mirage city, spirit stones are needed everywhere, and he can't even enter the door without spirit stones, although he has more than 3,000 catties of spirit stones, but he can't sit and eat the mountain empty, it's always right to refine some pills for some spirit stones.
He inquired with the shop guy about the nearby Dan Pharmacy, went out to the west, and turned a corner on the street to see a vermilion big wooden sign hanging at the door of the Dan Pharmacy, the name of the store was "Tsing Yi Danfang".
If you want to ask what business is the most profitable spirit stone in Xiuzhen City, it must be the gambling house and the pill shop, the monk's demand for pills is unimaginable, in the mortal world, only when they are sick will they go to grab medicine, but monks are different, if they want to improve their cultivation as soon as possible, they must buy pills to eat, for them, this is equivalent to eating, and it is quite expensive.
Li Qianmo bought a lot of medicinal materials in the Tsing Yi Danfang, and spent more than 500 catties of spirit stones, even if he kept refining the pill day and night, it was estimated that it would take more than a month to use it up.
When he bought medicinal materials, he inquired about the news of the fire with the guy in the medicine shop by the way, and he didn't have any hope, who knew that Lu Dao really had a harvest, and the guy told him: The auction house in the east of the city holds an auction on the first and fifteenth days of the first month of the new month, and each auction will sell many high-grade treasures, almost everything, and the price of each treasure will not be less than two hundred catties of spirit stones, all of which are good things.
Although the tinder is a very rare treasure, the auction house sometimes has to sell it, and five months ago, a second-grade tinder was sold, and the transaction price was 2,000 catties of spirit stones.
If you want to become a good Dan Master, you must have the ontological fire source, which is the flame released from your body, so that you can control the flame as much as you can when refining the pill.
Some Dan masters are born with fire spirit roots, and cultivating the flame system** can produce the main fire source, but some Dan masters do not have a flame spirit root, and they can only produce the main fire source by fusing the fire seed.
The fire is also called the creation of the fire, which means that it is generated by the creation of nature, it is very rare, it belongs to the category of heaven and earth, the more high-level the fire, the more difficult it is to find, as long as there is a fire in the Xiuzhen City, the Danshi who is in demand will definitely go bankrupt to buy.
Li Qianmo was very happy when he got the news, and immediately turned around and walked to the west of the city, and soon came to the auction house.
It's twelve, and it's three days before the next auction, but there's an empty wall outside the auction house's door with a huge list of all the items that will be auctioned at the next auction.
He looked at the list from beginning to end, and found no news of the tinder, although he was slightly disappointed, but he knew that this matter was in a hurry, since there was hope, then wait slowly, there are not many other things, and there is more patience.
When he returned to the room, he took out the Dan Furnace for alchemy, and now all the first-grade pills were no longer difficult for him, and the only thing that gave him a headache was the Dan rate and the Dan Turning Technique.
His current Dan rate is only fifty percent, not that his skills are not up to par, but he is restricted by the Dan furnace and flames, and the highest Dan rate can only be like this, even if Sun Boqing comes to use this Dan furnace and fire pot to refine Dan, at most it will be sixty percent of the Dan rate, which is not high.
As for the Dan Transfer, not to mention, the Pill Turning Technique is a technique that is many times more complex than alchemy, which is to control the flame to rotate at high speed at the moment when the pill is formed, disintegrate and refine the newly formed pill, and stimulate the essence of the pill.
Li Qianmo waited here for a month, and finally waited for the news of the tinder, and the list outside the auction house said that there was a spark in the next auction item - "Sage Spiritual Fire Second Grade".
This is a second-grade fire, just suitable for the current Li Qianmo, he was excited after seeing it, returned to his residence and began to work hard to alchemy, he wanted to save some more pills before the auction came, and then replace them with spirit stones, so as not to suddenly kill a rich Dan master and rob this fire.
The night before the auction, Li Qianmo took all his pills to the Tsing Yi Danfang to sell, although his pills were all of the same grade, but the quality of the pills was quite high, the Danfang bought all his more than 2,000 pills, and Li Qianmo's cornucopia had more than 2,000 catties of spirit stones.
On the day of the auction, Li Qianmo got up when he was in his prime, came to the auction house and waited for the door to open, and after about half an hour, he finally opened the door, but he wanted to buy an auction card when he entered the door, five catties of spirit stones, he was now rich, and he did not hesitate to buy one, and the long wooden card was engraved with the number, thirty-three.
When I walked into the auction house, I saw a huge hall inside, with a high dome inlaid with a huge submarine crystal, revealing beams of sunlight, and the hall was bright.
I saw that the whole audience was full of mahogany seats, and there were numbers behind each seat, estimated to be thousands, from front to back from high to low, and the design was very reasonable, so that people in the back row could also see the front. At the front is a three-foot-high platform with a red wooden table, presumably used to display the auction items.
Li Qianmo found seat No. 33 and sat down, and after waiting for less than two pillars of incense, the entire hall was already full, and all the monks were chattering about the treasures that were going to be auctioned today.
After a while, a middle-aged monk suddenly walked up to the booth from the backstage, only to see him with a handsome face, long eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a swallow beard more than three inches long under his chin, and a black gown, looking very powerful.
After the middle-aged monk came to the stage, the crowd fell silent, and the middle-aged monk bowed his hand to the crowd and said gently: "Fellow Daoists, Wei Zhuang is polite. ”
Many monks in the audience returned the salute, and one monk may have been an old acquaintance with Wei Zhuang, and shouted loudly: "Old Wei, you are polite, we have to see you twice a month, we are so familiar, what are you polite, Ha Lu Ha ......"
Many monks laughed when they heard this, it is estimated that they are all monks who are more familiar with this Wei Zhuang, Wei Zhuang smiled silently, after a while, he raised his hand to stop the noise of the audience, and raised his voice: "Okay, the noise is enough, fellow Daoists, the next thing is to start today's auction, there are a lot of good things in this auction, don't blink, don't come to me if you miss the baby." ”
A fat monk shouted happily: "You old turtle, you are blowing nonsense, and you said last time that there were good things, but it turned out to be some kind of bullshit, all bluffing." ”
Wei Zhuang smiled and said: "You fat man, have you been eaten by a dog, if you are deceived by me, what are you still doing here today?"
When the monks heard the conversation between the two of them, they all burst into laughter, and the fat monk also laughed loudly, and the atmosphere was very warm.
Wei Zhuang raised his hand again to stop everyone's laughter, and said, "Don't really make trouble, otherwise you will be delayed." ”
He paused for a moment, and when he saw that everyone was no longer noisy, he stroked his palms and raised his voice: "Now, please give out the first lot of this auction." ”
As she spoke, she stepped aside, and saw a young friar walking up to the auction table with a long, narrow sandalwood box in her hand.
After she stood still, Wei Zhuang took the sandalwood box, turned to face the crowd, and introduced: "In this rosewood box, there is a low-grade holy weapon magic sword, its precious value, I won't say much, the bottom price, seven thousand catties of spirit stones, each increase is not less than one hundred catties of spirit stones." ”
"What! What's the situation today, the first thing is to shoot the holy weapon magic sword!"
"Oh my God, is it really a holy artifact, I haven't seen a holy artifact yet. ”
......
As soon as everyone in the audience heard that this first auction item was actually a holy artifact, they were not calm, and they discussed it one after another, and many of them did not believe it.
A monk with a scumbag on his face suddenly said in a loud voice: "Wei Zhuang, you are not kind, such a valuable thing, you can at least let us take a look, what does it mean to put it in a box, even if I can't shoot it, it's good to open my eyes." ”
"It's just ......," the rest of the crowd chimed in.
Wei Zhuang stroked his beard lightly, nodded and said, "Okay, since this is the case, I will respond to your request and open your eyes." ”
After that, he took the sandalwood sword box, slowly opened it, and took out a long sword from it, this sword was white all over, emitting a faint silver light, as soon as he took out the wooden box, there was a burst of awe-inspiring power, as if to suppress the audience.
"What a holy artifact, what a holy artifact......," the crowd exclaimed in amazement.
