This time, there was no need to be secretive like last time, but he told Lu Ming about the trading conference without any concealment.
"The trading conference starts tomorrow. Brother Lu, do you still want to attend?" Shi Dong asked.
"Yes, I want to bid for a magic weapon that I want. I don't have any idea about the use of the magic weapon that I want to use. I want to take a look, so I came to ask Brother Shi for advice." Lu Ming said in a serious tone. This person is also very open-minded.
From the time I realized that, apart from being a little rude to myself at first, I also found out that I am a kind-hearted person.
"That's it. In fact, in the past half month, many small trade fairs organized by sects have been held, and many exciting magic weapons have appeared, but they have all been bought at high prices." Shi Dong looked at Lu Ming.
Said, "Whenever such small trade fairs appear, I always go back to Brother Lu to participate. Maybe it can be helpful to Brother Lu, but every time I go to Brother Lu, I stop."
"Hey, thank you for your concern, Brother Shi. Lu is indeed troubled by something." Lu Ming said with sincere gratitude.
"Haha, since we have missed it, we won't discuss it anymore. Next, I will tell you about the large-scale trade fair. Brother Lu found me the right person. I dare not say how much I know, but among the disciples in the foundation building period,
I have participated in many trading conferences and there are definitely no more than ten modifications!" Shi Dongshang said with a hint of pride.
"Actually, the trading conference is similar to the underground trade fair we went to last time, and the rules are similar. It's just that the large-scale trade fair lasts longer and has more items. Of course, the items that can appear at the trading conference are all high-quality products.
, are all rare things. If you want to participate in the auction at the trade conference, the things you bring out must be attractive enough, otherwise you will not be qualified to participate in the auction." Shi Dong looked at Lu Ming and said.
"Isn't this very unfair? How can the things we put out in the Foundation Establishment Stage compare with the things put out by the monks in the Golden Core Stage and Nascent Soul Stage?" Lu Ming asked with some doubt.
"Hey, Brother Lu, don't worry. Disciples with different levels of cultivation at large-scale trade fairs will have different trading halls. You will know when you go there." Shidong explained.
"That's it." Lu Ming nodded.
"However, high-level disciples can enter and exit the trading hall of low-level disciples, but low-level disciples cannot enter the trading hall of high-level disciples. However, this also increases many variables in the trade fair and increases the intensity of the trade fair!" Shi Dong
said.
"Aren't the lower-level disciples suffering a bit?" Lu Ming asked.
"What can be done about this? Fellow Daoist Lu also understands the principle of respecting the strong!" Shi Dong said calmly.
"Brother Shi, have you ever auctioned anything at a trade conference?" Lu Ming asked with a smile.
"I have auctioned once and bid once, but it was just a small matter. Compared with Brother Lu, it is far behind." Shi Dong said, knowing in his heart that since Lu Ming is a disciple of the Spiritual Medicine Garden, the things he wears must be inferior.
When he didn't get there, he didn't know that Lu Ming didn't pick it from the elixir garden, but snatched it.
"Haha, Brother Shi is too modest. I don't have anything good. I just want to experience the big scene and bid for a magic weapon that I want!" Lu Ming said with a smile.
"It's just a magic weapon. Brother Lu, you have to know that only those disciples with a backer and family can afford to use magic weapons. After practicing for so many years, I can only afford a low-level magic weapon." Shi Dong said helplessly.
.
In fact, this can't be blamed on Lu Ming's high-mindedness. The main reason is that the people who killed him were too good. They used high-level magic weapons, which gave him the illusion that high-level magic weapons are everywhere. What's more, if he wants to stand out in the trial place, he has no idea.
It is extremely difficult for a high-level magic weapon to come back alive!
"Haha, I'm not satisfied with Brother Shi. I made this plan because I was preparing to participate in the next trial. Otherwise, I wouldn't have tried my best to bid for a high-level magic weapon." Lu Ming said helplessly, saying this sincerely.
.
"Ah, Brother Lu wants to participate in the trial?" Shi Dong asked in surprise.
"Yeah, what's the problem?" Lu Ming asked calmly.
"Hey, I advise Brother Lu not to go." Shi Dong said seriously.
"Why is this?" Lu Ming asked in surprise when he saw Shi Dong's expression was so serious.
"Brother Lu, do you know why our Qingyun Sect only has ten foundation-building pills every five years?" Shi Dong looked around warily and asked.
"Why?" Lu Ming asked.
"It's a long story. In the early days, our Qingyun Sect could obtain close to twenty foundation-building pills each time. But for some reason, since fifty years ago, every time the disciples who entered the Qingyun Sect were able to get out alive.
The original quarter has dropped sharply to one-tenth!" Shi Dong whispered to Lu Ming.
"What!" Lu Ming was shocked. The survival rate of one in ten was too low. If this was really the case, he really needed to consider him carefully.
"Brother Lu, don't be surprised. Not many people know about this matter. Since I regard Brother Lu as a brother, I will naturally tell you this secret. The senior leaders in the sect have suspected that there is a traitor, but every time they come back alive, they are not surprised."
They are all very powerful disciples. According to what they said, as soon as they entered, they were surrounded and killed by monks from many sects at the same time, so as soon as they entered, they began to evade pursuit!"
"Therefore, later within the sect, there was a tendency for other sects to conspire and unite to surround and kill our disciples. However, such sects are not just our Qingyun Sect, there are also two other sects. This is why our Qingyun Sect has been
Our strength has declined somewhat, but the sect that was originally ranked behind us has caught up with us." Shi Dong said.
"Then there is nothing you can do to help them?" Lu Ming asked seriously.
"It is said that some golden elixir monks were secretly sent to use elixirs to forcibly lower their cultivation level to Foundation Establishment Perfection and even half-step golden elixir monks sneaked into it, but in the end no one came back alive after so many years!" Shi Dong!
said.
Lu Ming was deeply shocked. He didn't even make half a step of perfection. Could he really be surrounded by several sects?
Seeing Lu Ming's pensive expression, Shi Dong continued, "It is said that at this trade fair, our Qingyun Sect will also conspire with the other two sects. They will never fight each other and join forces to fight against the enemy. Let's find out what the reason is.
, it is said that the Golden Elixir Dzogchen monks will be sent out in disguise!" Shi Dong said.
"How did Brother Shi get the news?" Lu Ming asked with an ugly face. He must enter it. Now it seems that what he thought was simple. The bloody scenes inside must be a hundred times more bloody than what he imagined.
.
"I'm not afraid of Brother Lu's jokes, but do you know what I do?" Shi Dong said with a smile, sweeping away the heavy expression just now.
"Isn't Brother Shi the chief disciple of the Consul Hall?" Lu Ming asked with some confusion.
"This identity is just for concealment. The other identity is for inquiring about information from all sources and then reselling it. They are called know-it-alls." Shi Dong smiled and said, "Now that I sincerely make friends with Brother Lu, I don't have to hide anything anymore."
After hearing this, Lu Ming was very moved and said sincerely: "Thank you, Brother Shi, for your trust."
"Hey, actually I said this because I hope Brother Lu will give up the idea of going to the trial place." Shi Dong suddenly said with a helpless expression, looking very lonely, as if he was a different person from the previous one.
"Why is Brother Shi sighing? In any case, I am grateful to Brother Shi for providing this important information. At least knowing more information may save an extra life at a critical moment!" Lu Ming said.
"To be honest, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape the fate of entering the trial area this year. I've already declined three times, and this time I can't avoid it!" Shi Dong said in despair.
"Haha, what's the matter with me? What's the joy of life, what's the fear of death? If our monks stop and don't have the courage to move forward, what will happen? If I don't go this time because I'm afraid of death, then what will happen again?
I'm afraid it will always be an insurmountable obstacle in my future cultivation!" Lu Ming said with great enthusiasm.
Listening to Lu Ming's heroic words and seeing Lu Ming's fighting spirit, Shi Dong was deeply infected. He had been practicing for more than 130 years, and there was basically no hope for the golden elixir. The reason was that he was afraid of hands and feet and could not
He only ended up like this because he dared to take the step of life and death.
"Okay, no matter what, I won't back down anymore. We don't have to worry about life or death. Let's fight together!" Shi Dong stretched out his left hand and held it tightly with Lu Ming's right hand.
