Chapter 113: Small Trade Fairs
Hong Jun slowly looked through the auction list, and Shen Ze on the side seemed to remember something, and said: "It's also a strange thing, there will be a batch of treasures that have never been seen before in this auction, which attracted the attention of the Cangming Sword Sect, and sent someone to check, and found that these rare treasures have all flowed into Meizhou Island in the past few years, but the specific origin is unknown." Watermark Ad Test: Watermark Ad Test"
Hong Jun's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, but his face was silent.
He didn't have to guess to know that the batch of treasures that Shen Ze said must have been secretly sold by himself, and those sect Dao Pavilions who had purchased the treasures of heaven and earth all wanted to make a lot of money at the auction, and they didn't know about each other, so they entrusted them to the Cangming Sword Sect together, so they leaked it.
However, Hong Jun is not too worried, every time he sells a treasure, he uses the Taixu Yi Technique to change his appearance and aura, and there is no one who is the same, and it is impossible for others to find out on his head.
The only person who may doubt himself is Shen Ze in front of him.
He pretended to be a little surprised, and said curiously, "Oh, there is such a thing!
Shen Ze shook his head and said, "What's the result, those Dao Pavilions who have treasures all say that other monks sold them, according to their descriptions, the monks who sold the treasures seem to appear out of thin air, and their appearance and cultivation are different, and they can't find any clues at all." ”
"As soon as the clue is broken, the Cangming Sword Sect will not be able to investigate, so it can only be stopped. In fact, this is not a bad thing, the increase in treasures has made this auction even more pompous than before. ”
"That's right. Hong Jun nodded.
He looked at the auction list, and sure enough, he found more than a dozen treasures that had been passed down from his hands. Tianxing Sand, Millennial Huang Jingzhi, Gangfeng Silver, Phantom Cloud Crystal, etc., are all on it, and the price is much higher than what he sold to them at the beginning, and some even increased the price by two or three times more ruthlessly, which made him secretly sigh, sure enough, there is no business and no treachery.
Shen Ze, who was sitting next to him, was in a state of flux.
In fact, Shen Ze also suspected that these treasures of unknown origin had something to do with Hong Jun, because he also bought a rare thousand-year-old Poria fruit from Hong Jun. It coincides with the time period when other treasures appear. But when I think about it, I don't think it's possible.
This Hong Daoyou was just a fourth-level Qi refining monk, and he only had three layers a few years ago, how could he get so many treasures?
To know. The combined value of these treasures exceeded one million spirit stones! Even a True Monarch in the Yin God Stage would not be able to take out such a huge amount of spirit stones for a while. Not to mention a monk in the Qi refining period.
"How could I have such a ridiculous idea?" Shen Ze smiled to himself. I put the thought behind me.
Hong Jun's perception was very keen, and he found that Shen Ze was a little uneasy, but he deliberately pretended not to know.
That's when he turned a new page. Just at a glance, he saw a very familiar thing jump into his eyes, Jade Lingzhi Zhizhi, his eyelids jumped, this is the main medicine for refining the marrow nourishing pill! The marrow nourishing pill is the most urgently needed pill for him at the moment, it is stronger than the silver sturgeon quenching bone pill, it is the elixir that can be used after refining the body fourfold, it can cleanse the bone marrow, and it has a miraculous effect on improving cultivation.
Hong Jun came back to Meizhou Island this time to inquire about the news of Jade Lingzhi Zhi, because he had never even heard of this medicinal herb before.
He hurriedly turned to the page introducing the jade lingzhi mushroom, and saw a fist-sized cyan lingzhi written on it, shaped like an umbrella cover, and the rhizome was pale as jade, like a carved jade. There are a few lines of text at the bottom, saying that this jade girch is a very rare elixir, the growth is very slow, at least more than 300 years before it can be used in medicine, the growth environment is harsh, there is almost no way to cultivate it in the medicine garden, the current appearance of jade girch is found in the wild, a variety of good elixir to use this medicinal material.
Finally, the page also wrote the starting price of the auction of Jade Lingzhi Zhi, five thousand spirit stones!
This is only the starting price, when it comes to the auction, there will definitely be people competing, and it is not uncommon to auction tens of thousands of spirit stones at that time.
Hong Jun exhaled, he didn't care how many spirit stones there were, he was bound to get this jade spirit mushroom, even if the price was ten times more expensive, he would have to take it.
With the Jade Lingzhi Mushroom, he could immediately start refining the Marrow Nourishing Pill. Although the other auxiliary medicines mentioned on the Dan Fang are also very precious, they are not as rare as the Jade Lingzhi Mushroom, and a little more spirit stones can be collected in each Dao Pavilion.
Shen Ze saw his expression and said with a smile: "Hong Daoyou, have you taken a fancy to some treasures?"
Hong Jun was looking through the book and aimed at himself, so Shen Ze didn't know that what he needed was Jade Lingzhi Zhi, he closed the book, nodded and said: "Yes, I urgently need a medicinal alchemy right now, and I have nowhere to look for it, but I unexpectedly appeared at this auction, it seems that I must not miss this auction." ”
"It turns out that Hong Daoyou is actually an alchemist, no wonder his net worth is so thick, he must be able to get what he wants. Shen Ze had a certain understanding of Hong Jun's financial resources, at least Hong Jun had exchanged eight thousand spirit stones from himself. Most of the treasures in the auction were only sold for one or two thousand spirit stones, and eight thousand spirit stones were enough to buy several things.
"Thank you seniors. ”
Shen Ze waved his hand, looked at Hong Jun a few times, and suddenly said, "I wonder if Hong Daoyou is interested in small trade fairs?"
"Small trade fair?" Hong Jun was stunned for a moment.
As soon as Shen Ze saw Hong Jun's expression, he knew that he must not know about the small trade meeting, but it was also understandable, because this kind of small transaction was usually only qualified for monks on the fourth level of qi refining.
"This small trade fair is similar to an auction, but the scale is smaller, and there are no people in charge, and those who participate in it are at least cultivators above the fourth level of qi refining, and Hong Daoyou is now at the fourth level of qi refining realm, so he is eligible to participate. Shen Ze explained: "There are many auctions in the cultivation realm, usually before the auction is held, there are many small fairs, as few people participate, as many as twenty or thirty people, each monk takes out at least one treasure to participate in the transaction, and if there is a fancy one, they will talk privately, barter, or exchange for equivalent spirit stones, it is okay." ”
"Isn't there an auction, why is there such a small fair?" Hong Jun said with some confusion.
"The auction scene is too big, the competition is too fierce, and the transaction price will generally exceed the value of the treasure itself, and not all monks have the financial resources to win the desired item at the auction. And after the successful auction, the owner of the auction will be given a commission, which is a loss. ”
Shen Ze said helplessly: "Small trade fairs are different, the number of participants is small, and the competition is small, maybe you can get what you need at a more affordable value." ”
"Cangming Sword Sect doesn't care?" Hong Jun figured it out, this kind of small trade fair must be relatively secretive, and the more times it is held, the more unfavorable it will be to the Cangming Sword Sect, and a lot of treasures will be lost.
"What's the matter?" Shen Ze laughed, "This is a spontaneous transaction between monks, what reason does the Cangming Sword Sect have to interfere? In fact, the Cangming Sword Sect itself will also send people to participate in small trade fairs, and even some small trade fairs are initiated by them, which can be regarded as a warm-up before the official auction begins." ”
"I see. ”
"How is it, Hong Daoyou is interested in participating?" asked Shen Ze.
"Thank you for your advice. Hong Jun happily agreed, if it is about treasures, there are many hidden in his Qinglian Treasure Book, and there may be no monk who has more treasures than him on the entire Meizhou Island.
Shen Ze bowed his head and said: "Hong Daoyou came by coincidence, there is a small trade fair tonight, it was initiated by a deacon of Tianbao Pavilion, and I was also invited, and I can set off after dark." ”
"The deacon of Tianbao Pavilion ......" Hong Jun smiled dumbly, Tianbao Pavilion really deserves to be a big faction that started with business, this is openly digging the corner of the Cangming Sword Sect! However, with the reputation of Tianbao Pavilion, the small trade fair they initiated must not fall into their own reputation, and they should come up with a lot of good things.
For a while, Hong Jun was a little looking forward to the arrival of the night.
When night fell, Shen Ze handed over the shop to two helpers to take care of it and took Hong Jun out.
"Senior Shen, isn't that small trade fair in the city?" Hong Jun said strangely.
"In order to avoid suspicion, the deacon of Tianbao Pavilion used a small trade fair initiated by his private identity, of course, he couldn't use the place of Tianbao Pavilion, so as not to be caught by the people of the Cangming Sword Sect. After speaking, Shen Ze jumped and turned into a long water-colored light that soared into the sky.
Hong Jun hurriedly released the shuttle to follow, and curiously glanced at Shen Ze, who was covered in water, knowing that this was a water escape technique, and he felt a little envious in his heart.
Escape is also a kind of spell, which can be used for both rushing and fighting, and can only be mastered by monks in the realm of refining qi at the fifth level, and the retreat is very precious, more difficult to learn than ordinary spells, and only a very small number of monks have retreat.
"This escape technique is not only fast, but it is more convenient than the shuttle, but I don't know if the mana consumed is much?" Hong Jun secretly thought in his heart, there is also a escape technique in the Fire True Solution, called Spark Flowing Smoke Escape, which is a first-class escape technique in the cultivation realm, and the speed is the best in the world, and it is a few points faster than the sword escape technique of some slightly weaker sword cultivators.
Shen Ze's escape technique was extremely fast, and he threw Hong Jun behind him in the blink of an eye, and when he glanced back, he saw that Hong Jun couldn't keep up in time, so he could only slow down his speed. The two of them flew out of the city in a blink of an eye, headed east, and in half an hour, they entered the plum grove at the end of Meizhou Island that stretched for hundreds of miles.
Shen Ze was very familiar with this plum forest, looked around, and soon saw a place falling, Hong Jun followed him to the ground, and found that this was a small open space, with a radius of only seven or eight zhang, and the top was blocked by the old and tall plum trees, and the moonlight sprinkled down from the cracks in the trees, which had a unique view.
Monks above the third level of qi refining have the ability to generate white in the void room, and can see things at night, not to mention the moonlight lighting, Hong Jun can see the surrounding situation clearly at a glance. There were more than a dozen stones around the clearing, all of which had been flattened and used as chairs and stools, and at this time, there were already seven people sitting on the stones, either closing their eyes and recuperating their minds, or talking to people in a low voice, and after a cursory sweep, they were all monks of the fifth-layer realm of qi refining.
Only Hong Jun was present at the fourth level of qi refining, at least on the surface, it was a fourth-level cultivation, and it was a new unfamiliar face, which was suddenly very eye-catching, and a middle-aged monk asked out loud: "Shen Daoyou, who is this?"
