Chapter 53: The Dragon's Horns
After listening to Hua Taisui's words, the face of the third guest suddenly became ugly, he was a little suspicious of Li Tianqi's motive for raising the price at the beginning, and now he heard Hua Taisui's "kind words", and the doubts in his heart suddenly deepened.
Li Tianqi was also very nervous at this time, he only had 100,000 middle-grade spirit stones on him, and if he increased the price a few more times, he would be empty, seeing the No. 3 guest approaching step by step, Li Tianqi felt depressed in his heart, did he really want to go home empty-handed today?
Just when Li Tianqi was depressed, the No. 3 guest suddenly announced that he would withdraw from the bidding.
Li Tianqi was stunned for a moment, he thought that his ears were hearing poorly, so good, why did the No. 3 guest withdraw from the bidding?
Haifu was also stunned, and then asked: "No. 3 distinguished guest, why don't you increase the price? This ginseng has three thousand years of ingredients, and it is definitely worth buying it back......
Seeing Haifu's panicked appearance, the No. 3 guest was more convinced of Hua Taisui's words, the twentieth was a liar arranged by Haifu, and now seeing that he didn't increase the price, Haifu suddenly became anxious, and after figuring it out, the No. 3 guest suddenly showed a smile on his face, damn, I want to calculate Lao Tzu, it's not so easy! Although I was dissatisfied, the No. 3 guest still behaved very kindly on the surface, anyway, Haifu was a monk in the late stage of Jindan, and the No. 3 guest didn't want to offend, so he coughed lightly:" Senior, I'm sorry, I have limited financial resources and can't continue to increase the price. ”
"No. 3 distinguished guest, you don't think about it anymore? Is it really rare to see ginseng with three thousand years of ingredients?" Haifu said without giving up.
No matter how Haifu persuaded him, the third guest just didn't increase the price.
At this time, Li Tianqi came back to his senses, exhaled lightly, and then said to Haifu: "Senior, since the third guest has withdrawn from the competition, then this ginseng should belong to me, right?"
"Wait!" Haifu waved his hand.
Li Tianqi frowned: "Waiting, what are you waiting for?"
"Wait for me to ask again, and see if the other guests still bid?" After Haifu finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the other guests: "Everyone, ginseng with three thousand years of ingredients is hard to find, you must think about it, don't miss this opportunity, so as not to regret it in the future." ”
Li Tianqi crooked his mouth, and said in his heart: This Haifu is really not satisfied, he has more than 95,000 spirit stones, and he is not satisfied.
Haifu shouted several times, but no one bid again, and in the end, he had no choice but to announce that the ginseng belonged to Li Tianqi.
Li Tianqi's face was happy, he got up directly and walked onto the stone platform, and then happily paid off the spirit stone, and then picked up the ginseng and looked at it carefully, the ginseng with three thousand years of ingredients is different, not only the volume is much larger than the average ginseng, but even the beard on the rhizome is very thick and very long, and there are many lines on the surface of the ginseng, which looks like a simple atmosphere, Li Tianqi nodded secretly, this ginseng has really reached the composition of three thousand years.
"Guest No. 20, have you finished verifying?" Haifu asked.
"Well, the verification is complete, no problem. Li Tianqi came back to his senses, carefully put away the ginseng, and then walked off the stone platform and returned to his seat.
"Hey...... Li Tianqi, are you still satisfied with that ginseng?" Hua Tai Sui said.
Li Tianqi nodded, and the voice replied: "Of course I am satisfied with the ginseng of the three thousand years of ingredients, but it is just ...... It's so expensive that it drains all my savings at once. ”
"Be content, if it weren't for my help, you wouldn't have gotten ginseng at all. Hua Tai Sui crooked his mouth.
Li Tianqi was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly, "What do you mean by this?"
"Don't you understand? Let me explain it to you, do you know why the third guest suddenly withdrew from the competition?" Hua Tai Sui asked.
Li Tianqi shook his head and said he didn't know.
"Because I secretly helped you......" Next, Hua Tai Sui told him how he secretly spread the sound and deceived the third guest.
After listening to Hua Taisui's words, Li Tianqi really didn't know what to say, originally he thought that he relied on his true skills to grab the ginseng, but who knew that it was Hua Taisui who secretly helped to make the No. 3 guest automatically withdraw from the competition.
"How's it going, am I smart?" asked Hua Tai Sui.
"Clever, very smart, Ikebana-friend, thank you, thank you so much for doing me such a great favor. Li Tianqi thanked him from the bottom of his heart.
"You're welcome, who called us friends. Hua Tai Sui said.
Li Tianqi and Hua Taisui were secretly talking, so outsiders couldn't hear the conversation between them at all.
At this time, Haifu on the stone platform spoke: "Now continue to auction the eighth item." With that, Haifu opened the eighth box.
Li Tianqi looked up and was stunned, only to see a horn in the eighth box, a horn with a very peculiar shape, red, smooth in appearance, covered with lines, although Li Tianqi was far away, he could also feel the strong spiritual power coming out of the horn.
"What is this?" someone asked.
Haifu smiled: "This is a great treasure...... I don't think anyone on the scene will recognize ......"
"Whoever says it, I know. Hua Tai Sui said suddenly.
"Huh?" Haifu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Hua Tai Sui in surprise: "Do you really know this thing?"
Hua Tai Sui nodded: "Of course." ”
Haifu's eyes narrowed: "Okay, tell me, what is this thing in my hand?" Until now, Haifu didn't believe that Hua Taisui would really know the origin of the thing in his hand.
Hua Taisui cleared his throat and said slowly, "If I'm not mistaken, inside the box is a horn. ”
"What else?" Haifu asked.
"It's supposed to be a ...... The horns of the dragon. Hua Tai Sui said word by word.
"Huh?" Haifu's eyes widened: "You...... Do you really know?"
"Of course, I've seen similar dragon horns before, and the volume is much larger than yours' horns, if I'm not mistaken, the horns in your hand should belong to the juvenile Jiaolong, the color and grade are much lower, but the Jiaolong itself is very rare, and the entire human world is estimated to not be much, so your juvenile Jiaolong horns are still relatively precious, find an experienced refiner, plus some auxiliary materials, you should be able to refine a good high-grade magic weapon." Hua Tai Sui said eloquently.
Haifu looked at Hua Tai Sui with an unbelievable look: "How do you know so much?"
"Huh...... I've loved reading classics since I was a child, so I know a lot about them. Hua Tai Sui said with a smile.
"What is a dragon?" asked the thirty-eighth guest, who was sitting in the last row, suddenly.
"Wouldn't you? You haven't even heard of Jiaolong?" asked Hua Tai Sui in surprise.
Guest Thirty-Eight shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." ”
"Then you've always heard of dragons, right?" said Hua Tai Sui.
"Of course, of course I've heard of dragons. Guest No. 38 nodded: "But I haven't heard of Jiaolong......"
"In fact, Jiaolong also belongs to the dragon family, but the bloodline is not very pure, it is the worst vein of the dragon family, to make it clear, Jiaolong is a species produced by the combination of dragons and other demon races, and the body contains a trace of dragon blood, but it is not very pure, and the status of the dragon family is very low, although Jiaolong is not a real dragon family, but it has inherited some dragon powers, so Jiaolong is still very powerful, at least much more powerful than other demon clans, in ancient times, the number of dragons is still very large, at that time, Jiaolong relied on his supernatural powers, frequently provoked the human race, and wanted to make the human race surrender, of course the human race refused, just like that, There was a fierce battle between the human race and the Jiaolong clan, and there were many other kinds of demon clans involved in the battle at that time...... That big war can be described as earth-shattering, crying ghosts and gods, the war lasted for a full year, and both sides suffered heavy casualties, especially the human race, more people died, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it with corpses all over the field...... "Speaking of this, Hua Taisui suddenly stopped.
"What happened?" asked Guest Thirty-Eight.
"yes, what happened later?" The others were also addicted to listening, and even Li Tianqi looked like he was listening attentively.
"Of course, the Terrans won, otherwise we would be able to sit here and participate in the auction now?" Hua Tai Sui smiled.
"Didn't you just say that Jiaolong is very powerful, and the human race is not Jiaolong's opponent?" asked the thirty-eighth guest suspiciously.
Hua Tai Sui waved his hand: "Don't underestimate the wisdom of human beings, sometimes, strong strength does not necessarily lead to victory, the most important thing is to rely on the brain, a smart person can come up with a variety of ways to defeat strong enemies." ”
"The nineteenth distinguished guest is right, the wisdom of our human race is endless, it is definitely not comparable to those demon races, since ancient times, we human beings and demon races have been constantly fighting, no matter how miserable the process is, the final outcome is that we humans win, what do we humans rely on? is our wisdom! The ancestors relied on their extraordinary wisdom to drive all the demon clans into the 100,000 mountains, and made an agreement with the demon clans that no matter when, no matter what the reason, the demon clans could not step out of the 100,000 mountains, otherwise they would be killed! From the beginning of ancient times to the present, those demon clans have been obediently staying in the 100,000 mountains, and they do not dare to invade the territory of the human race at all, why is this? Because the demon clan is afraid of us human beings, they dare not come out to provoke us human beings again! In this world, we human beings are the most powerful and invincible! Haifu said emotionally.
In ancient times, both human beings and demon clans were very powerful, not at all comparable to the current human and demon clans, the resources of cultivating immortals themselves are limited, in order to get more immortal cultivation resources, humans and demons often fight, the end of each battle is that humans win, not that humans are stronger than demons, but human beings have high IQ, and often come up with a series of ways to deal with demons, although the demon clan is extremely powerful, in the end it is still not the opponent of humans.
