393. One hundred and sixty-three, the second part of the commentary
The auction venue, "Heqi Valley", was opened many years ago, and was established near the Longyuan Imperial Capital, called "Xinbei Mountain". Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Because Xinbei Mountain has always been invited, although there are continuous invitations, but the invitees are not ordinary people, so when the news spreads in the alleys, it is falsely spread by mortals, depicted as an extremely luxurious and bizarre, almost immortal treasure collection of the realm.
Chen Jingning just took Xiao Yu with her, and the two went alone.
According to her, it was because of the family power that she got an invitation, and no matter how many companions she brought, it would be unruly.
Xinbei Mountain is not a mountain peak, but a luxurious mansion built in a valley, with jewels and indeed full of red and dusty appearance.
When the two entered the letter tablet mountain, behind the mountain gate, there was a huge stone tablet. On the stele, there are not many marks, only a big golden word: "Letter".
It is estimated that this is the origin of the name of Xinbei Mountain.
The atmosphere and luxury along the road did not surprise the two of them. After all, with the vision of the two of them, they have long been accustomed to this similar appearance. The only thing Xiao Yu was a little surprised was Chen Jingning's performance at this time.
For a long time, she has nothing to do with words such as "arrogance" and "arrogance".
Chen Jingning is still so calm and elegant, but when she arrives here, in addition to still abiding by the rules, she shows a rejecting indifference.
She didn't say much, and when she followed Xiao Yu to the front of the palace, she just handed over the invitation.
After checking her identity, the guard at the door immediately saluted her and was very polite.
Speaking of which, Xiao Yu, who is deeply hidden in his cultivation and does not seem to have much of a threat, is still ignored by Shouwei even as Chen Jingning's companion.
Xiao Yu had no anger, and followed Chen Jingning into the room.
At this time, three more repairs came in from outside the door.
Before the guard at the door saw the invitation, he immediately greeted him, and he was extremely polite.
Xiao Yu turned around by chance and took a look at one of them, and the glare that shot made Xiao Yu feel like a killing sound, straight into his mind.
Xiao Yu's expression remained unchanged and looked at Chen Jingning next to him.
Because he clearly felt that when the three of them saw Xiao Yu, they were still indifferent, but when they saw Chen Jingning, their eyes lit up.
It's a pity that Chen Jingning didn't realize it.
led Chen Jingning's reception, and seemed to find the gaze of those people, and took the initiative to bow his head. The three cultivators only nodded slightly.
Xiao Yu asked Chen Jingning in a low voice, "Do you know those three?"
Chen Jingning replied lightly: "A person above the third order. ”
The auction hall was almost silent, and there were many monks in it, walking in and out, but there was no noise.
You must know that in such an important place, there are naturally many music bans.
When the guests arrive, it is not good to silence the voice, and the words that come out, even if they are transmitted, will be truncated and listened to by people who have cultivated to the depths, so they simply keep their voices silent and do not attract attention.
Chen Jingning walked and whispered to Xiao Yu: "The things photographed here rarely explain in advance what they are. In the same way, visitors are not ordinary and do not easily reveal their intentions. ”
Xiao Yu nodded and said, "To be able to summon so many famous monks with a first-class status - the prestige of this 'Harmony Valley' is really admirable. ”
The disciple of the "Harmony Valley" who received the two of them led the two to a room, opened the door with a special note, and after signaling to Chen Jingning, he turned around and left. Along the way, Xiao Yu was completely ignored by him.
"They have the ability, but unfortunately they still have to train their vision. Chen Jingning smiled lightly at Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu waved his hand and said, "That's fine, there is a lot less trouble, I should be at ease." ”
The auction hall of Xinbei Mountain is divided into three layers, upper, middle and lower, and Xiao Yu and Chen Jingning are in the middle layer.
"The upper layer should be where the respected people are. Xiao Yu said to Chen Jingning.
Chen Jingning revealed a playful smile that was difficult to see in others: "In this kind of place, if you stay for a long time, you talk as if you are selling stolen goods, and you are ghostly." ”
The real auction venue, surrounded by these private rooms, seems to be an isolated island transformation.
Unlike most auction houses in the world, there are no seats in the hall where you sit together. Almost all of the participants have their own private rooms, making it difficult to visit each other.
For the communication of the auction venue, the sound method of the self-organ is transmitted, and the quotation is compared by the auctioneer.
The whole auction was carried out in a completely quiet state.
As for the auction items that are a little farther away, because the monk has a sharp eye, he naturally does not dare to see the real thing.
Xiao Yu stood at the window of the private room, glanced down, and praised the various mechanisms arranged in this place ingeniously and sincerely.
Many auction items have been displayed on the auction table, surrounded by disciples of the "Harmony Valley". It seems that in order to be more flattering, those who choose to show up are all female disciples with sweet smiles.
"Those sisters are said to be able to participate in the auction...... Well, would you like to take two pictures and go back to serve you?"
Chen Jing condensed beside him and whispered to him.
Xiao Yu turned his head and said with a slight smile: "It's really beautiful, it is estimated that many people will like it." It is also pleasing to the eye. ”
Chen Jingning smiled and said: "There are business opportunities, there are people to do it, as long as someone is interested in it, there will be no shortage of business." ”
When the auction began, everyone seemed to be bidding silently, but Xiao Yu was very quiet and had no interest in many.
When the auction hammer falls, there will be a "do-" sound, which is also the only sound that can be heard in the scene, except for the auctioneer's introduction.
Chen Jingning has always been by Xiao Yu's side, and she doesn't seem to be interested in any auction items.
"Huh?"
Xiao Yu's eyes suddenly lit up.
At this time, the auction item was an ancient jade slip.
According to the auctioneer, this is a fragment of an ancient book called "Commentary on the Sound Attack".
This is not the focus of the auction, but all the items involved in the sound cultivation method will set off a small climax.
The monks who were able to participate in the auction here naturally had enough money, but even so, everyone was bold in bidding for this item. According to the rhythm of the auctioneer, it can be seen that there are constantly people raising prices, and it has not ended for a long time.
"This 'sound attack commentary' should be the same root as the 'sound defense commentary' in the door. ”
Chen Jingning said slowly: "It's just that those who can crack the mystery are very rare. Many of our predecessors have copies of this commentary, but unfortunately not enough results have been achieved so far. ”
"This ...... Is that what you're bringing me here for?"
Xiao Yu exhaled lightly and said gently.
Chen Jingning did not deny it, and said: "Actually, the auction here is not the original, I don't know if it has been changed." I also need you to confirm for yourself whether you can buy it. ”
Xiao Yu smiled and shook his head: "You don't have to force it. It's already a blessing to be able to learn the 'sound defense commentary', not to mention that for me, the master's sword is matched, and the attack is enough. ”
"Okay, whatever you want. Chen Jing nodded softly and said no more.
After the two spoke, the auctioneer began to make a final inquiry, and it seemed that the price had been increased to the extreme.
"Do-"
Final word.
At this time, the person who won the auction was different from the other guests who did not show up at all, and walked to the auction table in person, not shying away from being discovered at all.
"Who is this person?" Xiao Yu asked.
Chen Jingning said softly: "The parent of 'Li Jiabao', Li Caofang, is known as one of the 'Ten Statues' in the future. ”
"The ten statues of the future...... Xiao Yu said lightly.
Chen Jingning said: "'Li Jiabao' is the strongest among the neutral sects, and there is no one of them - it is because of the strength of the parents of the past generations. ”
The person who appeared in front of everyone's eyes was indeed full of magnificence, and I saw that he had a square face, a thick waist and a broad back, which was the appearance of wealth and prosperity.
"Their sect exercises are upright and peaceful, and they have no characteristics at first, so they are very good at collecting the secret techniques of each school, renovating them, compiling and deducing, and integrating them into the ancestral exercises of their own clan. Chen Jingning said, "Later, after accumulation, a large number of high-level celebrities appeared in one fell swoop, and the momentum was extremely loud. ”
At this time, on the auction table, Li Caofang was holding Yu Jian with both hands and smiling at the Quartet. This is obviously a display of one's own strength, and each private room seems to be filled with a faint depression.
Of course, Li Caofang knew the measure, just signaled, and then put it back into the distance, acting cautiously and never recklessly.
"If it is said that for the study of ancient books, the one who has achieved the most results is their 'Li Jiabao'. ”
Chen Jingning said softly: "From this point of view, they have such a reputation in the cultivation world, and they also have the confidence. ”
Li Caofang, under the respectful escort of the disciples of the "Harmony Valley", left from the main gate.
Xiao Yu looked at his back with a pensive expression.
Until the end of this auction, Xiao Yu and Chen Jingning did not gain anything, but they looked natural, relaxed and leisurely, and when they came back all the way, they still toured the mountains and rivers, and they didn't see the results of this trip as important at all.
Being able to be selected by the cultivation sect naturally has its aura, and the two of them are also happy to play.
Passing by a lake, the scenery is beautiful, and the two of them have a picnic with great interest.
When the two returned to the Hundred Years Red, it was already night.
Nothing was said all night.
On the morning of the second day, Xiao Yu was practicing when someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Generally speaking, where he lives, Chen Jingning will prohibit idlers from disturbing. Most of those who can come over do have important matters.
Xiao Yuyin has a keen sense, so naturally he was not surprised to come, but after opening the door, he was a little surprised to see a book that the person took out.
"My young lady sent it, please check it with Xiao Gongzi. ”
When the book was delivered, the man left respectfully.
Xiao Yu glanced at the cover: "Sound Attack Commentary".
Chen Jingning still got a copy of the transcription for him.
Xiao Yu looked through it and found that the content was very complicated, and there were indeed many people's statements mixed in it, and some even contradicted themselves and were inconsistent. When ordinary people come to check, they will definitely be troubled by many of these views, and they have no clue.
Suddenly smiling, Xiao Yu didn't continue to take a closer look, but put it away with great care.
