Chapter 18 Auction(1/2)
Author: Mebian
The two of them turned around and saw the owner of Lingdan Fuzhuan, who had just kicked them out of the house, trembling with his lips: "Do you still have that evil-proofing talisman of yours? I'll buy it! I'll buy it no matter how much it costs!"
Mo Nianqing took out his ears and said with a playful smile: "Hey, I regret it."
Li Bei was generous, but he just looked through the bottom of his pocket and found only one piece.
She knows how to raise the price: "Five thousand, no bargaining."
The boss hesitated.
"Let's go." Li Bei was about to leave when he saw this.
The boss grabbed her and knelt down, saying repeatedly:
"Don't go, don't go, it's not that it's too expensive! I just want to ask the girl if she still has the talisman and seal? I still have children at home!"
"...It's true that there is none, I'm sorry."
Li Bei said calmly.
She didn't have any special feelings towards her boss. At most, she thought he didn't know much about things.
Painting the talisman seals is time-consuming and laborious. The auction is about to start, and Li Bei doesn't have time.
The boss stooped upon seeing this, as if the light in his eyes had been wiped out, and finally gave a wry smile.
He took out the spirit storage bag and handed it to Li Bei, then walked away holding the talisman and seal in both hands.
Li Bei and the others hurried to the auction, and upon counting, they discovered that the spirit bag given by the boss contained eight thousand middle-grade spiritual stones.
"Why did he give so much?" Mo Nianqing probed his head.
Li Bei: "Well, I have to give it back to him."
Adding up all the talismans, Ling Ling totals 30,000 middle-grade spiritual stones.
When you come to the auction, you have to pay a deposit of 10,000 mid-level spiritual stones to enter.
The man guarding the gate looked gentle and elegant, and explained: "This money can also be used for auction purposes, and will be returned to you after the end."
"The threshold is high enough."
Li Bei heard someone muttering.
Li Bei turned around and saw a maid muttering, the woman next to her was covered in plain clothes and only had one pair of eyes.
indifferent.
As if aware of Li Bei's gaze, the woman looked over.
When they looked at each other, Li Bei felt flustered for some reason.
"how?"
"fine."
Li Bei suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and entered the scene.
The venue was luxuriously decorated, each person sat alone, exquisite snacks were placed on the mahogany table, and someone came to make tea for them.
Mo Nianqing tasted it and said it was Longshan Snow Point.
“Good tea.”
The chubby host smiled and said: "I announce that the auction has begun, the first prize!"
"The well-preserved shark corpse, without the shark beads or shark skin, has a starting price of 3,000 taels of low-level spiritual stones!"
A white jade platform was carried up by eight strong men, with a gorgeous mottled fish tail hanging on the ground, the tip of the tail almost touching the ground.
At this time, water mirrors appeared in front of all the tables, clearly reflecting every part of the mermaid under everyone's eyes.
After a moment of silence, everyone burst into exclamation involuntarily.
With those bright red lips and long ocean blue hair, it seemed like she was just sleeping!
"A three-hundred-year-old mermaid died of suicide. Filming starts now!"
"Three hundred years old, that's still young. It's worth it!"
There were constant whispers around me, and soon someone made a bid. At first, five people competed.
In the end, the deal was made for 8,000 mid-level spiritual stones.
"Suicide...tsk, it's so miserable." Mo Nianqing murmured.
"how?"
He put his hand on the armrest and looked bleakly: "The sharks are the children of the sea and are immortal. This female shark must have encountered a huge difficulty..."
"The process of seeking death is much more painful than living." Mo Nianqing looked melancholy.
Next, Li Bei looked at the spirit sword, the storage bag, and even the tea cup used by the strong man in the crystallization stage...
"Hey!" Li Bei shuddered.
It was getting dark soon, but there were no auction items that could arouse her interest.
Just as she was about to leave, she felt slight fluctuations in the sea of spiritual consciousness, as if there was some resonance.
"What's going on?"
Li Bei sat down calmly and used his mental strength to look at the stage.
The host pulled off the silk cloth, and it turned out to be a crystal clear jade harp!
It is in excellent condition, with colorful spiritual energy flowing through it, making it look like the phoenix carved on the harp has come to life.
Li Bei's eyes lit up. The aura emanating from the jade harp was so familiar that it stirred the spiritual energy in her body.
Could it be the instrument selected for "Yao Qin Jue"?
"The final collection! Youhuang Jade Haru, starting price," the host raised his finger, "Ten thousand medium-grade spiritual stones!"
After Li Bei waited for people around him to bid for a round, the price had already doubled.
She held up the sign and spoke in horror:
"Twenty-six thousand taels!"
People around her raised eyebrows, and Mo Nianqing told her to slow down, leaving Li Bei speechless.
Just because the sea of spiritual consciousness is so turbulent that every limb and body is noisy, we must get it!
After a moment of silence.
"Thirty thousand taels!"
A man's lazy voice came.
"Thirty-five thousand taels."
Li Bei was about to increase the price, but someone else beat him to it.
It was indeed the woman covered in veneer, her maid raised her chin and shouted.
The spiritual stones for selling talismans and seals have been spent.
Add more...
Li Bei's palms were sweating, and his mind was constantly thinking about what to do.
At this time, Mo Nianqing touched her head and whispered: "Don't be afraid, I have brought the spirit stone, please add it."
Li Bei suddenly looked up at him, his already handsome face shining with golden light at this moment.
"Mo Nianqing," she said seriously, "I really want to hold your forehead and kiss you hard."
She was busy increasing the price, completely ignoring the young man's earlobes that were so amused by this careless sentence that his ears were bleeding.
Thirty-five thousand middle-grade spiritual stones are enough to buy a small city.
Further up, the bidding becomes more cautious.
After more than ten rounds, only Li Bei and the woman were left, and the price was raised to 40,000 pieces.
The woman looked at Li Bei through the air. Their eyes collided, neither of them could be considered friendly.
The host was so happy that he couldn't even open his eyes.
On the contrary, Li Bei's heart sank, and when the whole audience stretched their necks, waiting to see who would win the prize.
She moved her wrist, took out a cold sword out of thin air, and stood up:
"Come out from table 35, a fifth-level water-based spiritual sword and 40,000 taels of high-grade spiritual stones!"
Even the host's eyes widened in astonishment, and a single stone stirred up a thousand waves. The crowd's noise almost drowned out Li Bei's voice:
"Fifth level water spirit sword!! Who is she?"
"Is she the city lord's daughter? I've never seen her before."
