Chapter 445 Killing two birds with one stone(1/2)
There is no one around.
The black-faced Xuanjun who had just left Taohua Temple appeared here for some unknown reason.
"Hmph, there are actually late-stage god-transformation monks participating in the competition." He seemed to be talking to himself.
"Don't worry, with me here, even if you are in the late stage of becoming a god, it will be difficult to beat you in the bidding." A man's voice suddenly sounded from the ears of the black-faced Xuanjun, his words were full of confidence.
Then there was a flash of light, and an illusory old man in Ge Yi appeared.
"Mr. Ge, is the location you mentioned really as good as the Emerald Tang Valley? It's not that I doubt it, but the curative effects of various places in Xiao Tang Valley have always been determined, with the Emerald Tang Valley being the best, and the Yellow Jade Valley being the best.
Secondly, Qingyu Tanggu is the worst. With so many resources invested this time, if something unexpected happens, I'm afraid..." When the black-faced Xuanjun saw the old man Ge Yi, he seemed to have changed. His expression
The publicity in the crowd disappeared, and he immediately bowed and became respectful.
"Don't worry about this. I am the only one who knows the secret of that position. On the surface, the effect of position 55 is mediocre, but in fact, as long as you dig out the spring hole and drain the water for a while, you will immediately have a water that is no less than the Emerald Soup.
The curative effect of Gu is most suitable for healing the wounds suffered by the Night Demon, and I will not make fun of my own hope of rebirth." The old man in Ge Yi said confidently, stroking his beard.
"I see, Mr. Ge, I understand." Upon hearing the explanation, Black-faced Xuanjun immediately beamed.
If he can really heal the pain that Night Demon left on him, then he will advance to the realm of refining the void and no longer have any worries.
"However, your competitor does not seem to be a simple person. His aura is stable, his aura is so strong in the spiritual realm, and his level of cultivation at the divine transformation stage is the best I have ever seen in my life. After that.
During the bidding process, you'd better be willing to spend more money. Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be an accident this time." The old man Ge Yi pondered for a while and then reminded him again.
This time, he didn't just speak, but opened his mouth and spit out a small golden talisman.
With a click of his finger, the small talisman floated into the hands of the black-faced Xuanjun.
"This is the Small Void Sky Talisman, which is of extraordinary value. Hold it for an extra layer of protection."
Upon hearing what Mr. Ge said, the black-faced Xuanjun showed a look of great joy.
Afterwards, the two of them chatted for a few more words, and then a bell sounded from the direction of Taohua Temple.
Bidding starts soon!
The black-faced Xuanjun turned around and turned into a ball of black light and escaped into the small nunnery.
Naturally, Lu Zhong didn't know all this, and he didn't expect that the location he was looking for actually contained a big secret. He was enjoying the tea provided by Xiaotanggu to himself, and he was enjoying it at the moment.
Being able to eat is a blessing.
At the stage of spiritual transformation, although you have already been able to live without grains and no longer need to supplement nutrients from the outside world, eating regularly is not without benefits. Tasting various delicacies can also have a pleasant effect on the body and mind, which is of great benefit to your cultivation.
Help.
But quiet time always flies by.
After everyone arrived, the bidding for each position began immediately.
According to everyone's previously registered position, during the bidding stage, the interior of Taohua Temple will be divided into small venues. For example, Lu Zhong is now in a private room, and other monks participating in the competition are also there.
However, out of the eighteen registrants, only nine were present.
In other words, half of the people chose to give up.
"The time has come. It seems that this time, only the nine of you will participate in the competition. It will save me a lot of time." Deep in the room, an old woman with curly hair was sitting. At this moment, she stood up from her position and rushed forward first.
Everyone bowed as usual, and then continued: "You can just call me Grandma Du. I am the person responsible for presiding over the bidding for No. 55 of Qingyu Tang Valley. The specific bidding rules are clear to all of you fellow Taoists. Then
I won’t talk too much anymore. As for the punishment for making random quotations, all Taoist friends present should already know it.
Let’s make a quick decision, who will be the first to come up with an offer?”
"I'll do it." In the corner of the room, a very weak female cultivator with a golden face stood up.
She walked up to Granny Du and handed out a piece of paper.
The latter saw it and announced to the rest of the room:
"No. 1, the bid is one thousand, is there any higher price?"
When Lu Zhong heard the price, he was not only slightly surprised.
If this thousand is converted into spiritual stones, it is equivalent to ten thousand high-grade spiritual stones. Even for a monk who transforms into a god, it is a large amount. Usually, one has to go without eating or drinking for a very long time to earn this amount.
It can be seen that this woman has spent all her money in order to heal her wounds.
"I'll pay one thousand and one." Another person stood up and reported his price.
Compared with the female cultivator before, this male cultivator with his head covered is undoubtedly much more miserable.
Every time he takes a step, more black tentacles will shoot out from the shadow behind him. They will pierce into the back of the person's head and pull his yangshen out of the body bit by bit until he is pulled into the shadow.
"Grandma Du, this is my bid list." The male cultivator held out the note in his hand with great hope.
But before he finished speaking, other monks mercilessly offered him a higher price.
Who among those present is not miserable?
Many people would rather serve the Tu Palace for a thousand years in exchange for a chance to heal their wounds. After all, every time a monk who transforms into a god survives a thunder tribulation, he can live another three thousand years. Now, it is worth one-third of his time in exchange for a chance to survive. No matter how you think, it is worth it.
Time passed little by little, and Lu Zhong remained motionless.
The craziness of the bids greatly exceeded the expectations before the start, but it was still within his tolerance.
[To be honest, I have been using the Huanyuan app recently to read and catch up on updates. It can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds, huanyuanapp. Both Android and Apple are available.]
Soon, the price reached two thousand.
Compared to the beginning, it has doubled.
Even so, the price increase momentum has not slowed down.
"Hmph! Raising the price little by little is a waste of time. I bid three thousand, but there is no one who can compete with me!" Black-faced Xuanjun sneered at this time and raised the price to three thousand.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Many people shook their heads and exited after hearing this.
Originally, the black-faced Xuanjun didn't speak, but they still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts, thinking they had a chance to succeed in the competition.
But now, it has been increased to three thousand.
It was like completely extinguishing hope.
After a while, only three people were left in the field.
They are Granny Du, black-faced Xuanjun, and Lu Zhong who has never made a bid.
"Very good! I didn't expect that you still have some courage and even have the idea of participating in the competition. But I advise you to give up, because my black-faced Xuanjun has accumulated more than ten thousand years, which is far beyond what a person with no foundation can compare with you.
." Black-faced Xuanjun glanced at Lu Zhong, his face twisted for a while before a sinister smile appeared, and he said with great confidence.
But he didn't expect that Lu Zhong just smiled faintly after hearing this.
He doesn't even have the slightest understanding of it.
When the black-faced Xuanjun saw this, he couldn't help but became furious. If Xiaotanggu hadn't banned the fight, he would have made this man's blood splatter on the spot.
Granny Du didn't care about such a tense scene. She moved her turbid eyes to Lu Zhong and reminded her kindly: "Fellow Taoist, since you don't give up the competition, then tell me the price. I'll see if your spiritual realm is pure.
Chengcheng must be someone who has not survived many tribulations, so you might as well make a bold offer, even if you spend more years working for the Tu Palace, it is better than dying, isn't it?"
Hearing this, Lu Zhong had no reaction, but the black-faced Xuanjun suddenly became nervous.
Black-faced Xuanjun was already cursing secretly in his heart.
Granny Du's move made the person opposite her completely aware of her own advantages.
As a result, if he wants to win, he will have to pay more.
Little did he know that Lu Zhong was thinking the same way at the moment.
"Sure enough, Jiang must be very old. After Granny Du's words, no matter how high the price I raise, the black-faced Xuanjun opposite will think that I am increasing the number of years to work for the Tu Palace. If I come and go again, even if I
In the end, I was able to succeed in the competition, but I was afraid that I would have to bleed a lot just because of the other party’s seemingly well-intentioned reminder.”
Is there a way to break the situation? Of course there is.
Xiao Yutani's rule is that you only quote a price, but don't need to show financial resources.
Essentially, it is to prevent murder and treasure grabbing from happening.
Because no one knows how many years the competitors will have to work for the Tu Palace in order to win.
Kill people and steal treasures under unknown circumstances.
It is very likely that after a huge price-paying battle, not only did he get no benefits, but he provoked the Tu Palace and gave himself a difficult enemy for nothing.
Keeping your wealth private is a way to protect yourself, but sometimes it can be the other way around.
Now is the best time.
Lu Zhong thought for a moment, walked to the middle of the elegant room, and swept his sleeves away.
Suddenly, the room was illuminated by spiritual light.
It was a pile of medium and high-grade spiritual stones, the quantity of which was worth three thousand.
Seeing this scene, the black-faced Xuanjun fell into silence.
You know, his highest ability is only four thousand.
