After three rounds of drinks, it was already noon, and Yuqiong Tower became even more lively, with almost all seats occupied.
The hall was already full, and dozens of private rooms were also overcrowded.
"when!"
A crisp gong sounded, causing the entire Yuqiong Tower to fall into silence.
Everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks and looked towards the middle area, where a middle-aged man stood on the auction stage.
This person is Manager Yuqionglou Lu, and he presides over every monthly auction.
Liu Wuxie and Nie Huan put down their wine glasses, and the door to the private room opened by itself.
This private room and the private room opposite have the best location, and you can have an unobstructed view of the entire auction venue.
Even the diners in the hall can see clearly.
Liu Wuxie frowned slightly, and he found a few fiery eyes coming straight towards him.
Looking back, I saw several unfamiliar faces, but I didn't recognize them.
Nie Huan also sensed it, and there were several faint signs of hostility coming from the opposite side.
"His name is Nie Wancong, Nie Yin's grandson."
Nie Huan glanced at the opposite side and whispered to Liu Wuxie.
"It's strange. I don't seem to have offended them. Why are they so hostile to me?"
Liu Wuxie looked away and said strangely.
Although he didn't like Nie Yin's style of doing things, it wasn't to the point of life and death.
From Nie Wancong's eyes, there was a fierce look, and he wanted to get rid of it quickly.
Just because you cured King Nie Ling and ruined his grandfather's good deeds, do you want to kill someone and silence him?
"We have to be careful about this person. Nie Wancong has the same moral character as his grandfather, and there is no lower limit for what he can do. It is probably because you cured my grandfather that they were dissatisfied."
Nie Huan lowered his voice and tried his best not to conflict with him during the auction.
Liu Wuxie nodded. It wasn't that he was afraid of trouble, and he didn't want to get into trouble for the time being.
After King Nie Ling recovers, he will leave the Tiangong clan.
As for the grievances between the Tiangong clan, he, as an outsider, cannot participate.
The internal fighting among the Tiangong clan is not just the past one or two years, it has been like this for thousands of years.
"Welcome everyone to Yuqiong Tower. The once-a-month auction will begin soon. As usual, the highest bidder will win."
Manager Lu glanced around and his voice spread throughout Yuqiong Tower.
Everyone knew the rules, so Manager Lu kept his story short and didn't waste everyone's time too much.
As soon as he finished speaking, several young men in green clothes held various strange items and placed them on the auction table.
Liu Wuxie glanced around and found that most of the items were of little use to him.
The currency of the Tiangong clan is not immortal stone, but a light green crystal block that contains a touch of spiritual power.
Normally, the Tiangong clan relies on this kind of crystal block for cultivation, commonly known as fine crystal stone.
"Now the first item in the auction is a leaf of the spirit shuttle tree. Everyone should know that when you create a heavenly artifact and add the leaves of the spirit shuttle tree, the attack power will increase by as much as 30%."
Manager Lu has an extra yellow leaf in his hand, and the rules are very uneven.
The Lingsuo tree is on the verge of extinction. Only the Tiangong tribe can occasionally see one or two. They grow in extremely dangerous places and are difficult for ordinary people to pick.
Hearing the leaves of the Lingsuo tree, the entire Yuqiong Tower suddenly boiled.
Many Tiangong monks have been looking for the leaves of the Lingsuo tree for a long time.
Now that I have encountered it here, I will try my best to get it.
Adding a Spirit Shuttle Leaf can increase the attack power by 30%. With such a heaven-defying treasure, no wonder they flock to it.
At the same level, but 30% higher than the opponent, it is definitely an instant kill. "The starting price is three hundred fine crystal stones, and each increase in price must not be less than ten yuan."
Manager Lu announced the reserve price.
Three hundred fine crystal stones is a huge sum for ordinary Tiangong people.
Even Nie Huan only has more than 5,000 fine crystals on his body.
Sperm crystals are completely different from human immortal stones. The formation of each sperm crystal is more demanding than immortal stones.
The fine crystal stone contains spiritual power, and the immortal stone contains immortal energy.
Extracting mental power is extremely slow, and a single crystal can absorb it for a long, long time.
The immortal energy contained in the immortal stone is limited, and every time Liu Wuxie breaks through, it can easily reach tens of millions.
"I'll pay three hundred and one!"
Sitting at a table on the left side of the hall, a man in his thirties stood up and was the first to call out the price.
"I'll pay three hundred and thirty!"
From the right side of the hall, another voice came out.
Bidding was coming one after another. The value of one Ling Shuo leaf was only between 400 and 500 fine crystal stones.
If it exceeds this amount, it is not worth it.
Therefore, the final price must be within five hundred fine crystal stones.
Most of the Tiangong people sitting in the private room are geniuses in various branches.
The people sitting in the hall are ordinary people with no prominent status.
The crossbow in Nie Huan's hand was added with a spirit shuttle leaf, and its attack power was extremely powerful.
The bidding became more and more fierce, and it was finally bought by the Tiangong clan who made the first bid for 430 fine crystal stones.
Next, the second item is auctioned, which is mainly used to refine Tiangong tools.
Liu Wuxie had no intention of participating and looked at another part of the auction table. There were five items there, covered with special covers.
It should be what Nie Huan calls blind guessing.
There is no announcement of what is inside, only a price reminder, allowing everyone to guess who has the closest answer and who will own the item.
This was the first time Liu Wuxie encountered such a weird auction method.
Everything inside is more than the price, which means that if you guess correctly, you can buy a good treasure for a very small amount of crystal.
but!
If you want to participate in blind guessing, you need to pay fifty pieces of fine crystal.
If the guess is not correct, these fifty crystal stones will not be returned.
No matter how you calculate it, Yuqiong Tower will not suffer.
Only the person who guesses correctly is the biggest beneficiary.
The normal auction lasted for two hours, and all items were auctioned off. Liu Wuxie and Nie Huan remained as spectators.
It's just a small auction, not many things.
"The next step is the blind guessing session, which is also the most intense and exciting. Please use your imagination to see what is under these covers."
Manager Lu pointed to the five covers on the other side, which were sealed with tyrannical spiritual power. Not even Liu Wuxie could sense what was inside.
Most of the Tiangong people are not interested in blind guessing.
A few people looked excited.
The prices listed on the five covers are not expensive, only costing three hundred fine crystal stones.
Last month, in a blind guess, a monk spent 300 sperm crystals and guessed a treasure worth 800 sperm crystals, making a lot of money.
finally!
Only fifty people participate, and each person needs to pay fifty pieces of fine crystal.
In order, guess the first cover on the left first.
There may be living things inside, or they may be dead things.
"Wait a moment!"
The moment Manager Lu announced the start, a voice came from across from Liu Wuxie.
Everyone looked towards the private room.
"Nie Wancong, what do you want to say?"
A monk in the hall recognized Nie Wancong's identity and asked.
"Today's blind guess, I hope you don't participate, because I have other uses."
Nie Wancong stood up from the private room and walked towards the auction table step by step. His tone was calm, and his aura increased a little with every step he took.
"Why?"
Although Nie Wanchong has a distinguished status, the monks present are also of high cultivation and come from masters from various branches, so they are not afraid of Nie Wanchong.
"I want to compete with him alone. I hope everyone will succeed."
After Nie Wancong finished speaking, he looked at Liu Wuxie with naked eyes, and his fierce murderous aura enveloped Liu Wuxie's private room.
Liu Wuxie thought that Nie Wancong would attack him.
But I didn’t expect to use blind guessing.
Everyone's eyes fell on Liu Wuxie's face, and many people looked blank. They did not recognize Liu Wuxie.
On the other hand, everyone knows Nie Huan.
"How is it human?"
Many Tiangong tribesmen showed displeasure. Not all Tiangong tribes like humans.
"Master Nie Wancong, it is fun for everyone to guess blindly together. You are breaking the rules. This is inappropriate, isn't it?"
Some members of the Tiangong clan stood up and thought that Nie Wancong had gone too far.
Just because he is Nie Yin's grandson, he can do whatever he wants.
This monk is right. Blind guessing means everyone guesses together, which makes it more dramatic.
That's not called blind guessing, that's called blind guessing.
"Those who give up can each receive fifty crystal stones."
Nie Wancong didn't waste any time and took out 2,500 fine crystal stones. Those who gave up could come forward and take away fifty pieces.
When they heard that there was a fine crystal stone to be obtained, the expressions of the Tiangong clan who participated in the blind guessing suddenly changed.
They paid fifty fine crystal stones to Yuqiong Tower, but they might not be able to guess it correctly.
If you don't guess correctly, it's all in vain.
Anyway, Yuqiong Tower holds auctions every month, and they are not in a hurry. Fifty crystal stones is not a small sum.
"I give up blind guessing!"
Someone stood up, gave up the blind guessing session, and took fifty fine crystal stones from Nie Wancong.
After someone took the lead, others followed suit. In the blink of an eye, all the monks who had just participated in the blind guess gave up.
There is another reason: because of Nie Yin's identity, he also wants to give Nie Wancong some face.
Nie Wancong was the only one left standing there, his eyes returning to Liu Wuxie's face.
"Guanshi Lu, here are one hundred fine crystal stones. The two of us will make a blind guess."
Nie Wancong took out one hundred pieces of crystal stone and paid Liu Wuxie's fifty pieces together.
"this……"
Manager Lu is in a very difficult position. He is just a small manager and cannot make the decision.
"Don't worry, Manager Lu. Whatever you guess, I will buy it at the original price. I will not let Yu Qionglou do a loss-making business."
Nie Wancong knew what Manager Lu was worried about. The number of blind guessers was too small and Yuqionglou would not be able to recover the cost.
Hearing what Nie Wancong said, Manager Lu didn't know what to say, because he was Nie Yin's grandson.
Who doesn't know that Nie Yin is vying for the position of clan leader recently.
If Nie Yin is elected as the clan leader, then Nie Wancong's status will rise even more.
"Liu Wuxie, come out, let the two of us guess blindly."
Nie Wancong's voice was extremely harsh and told Liu Wuxie to get out of the private room.
"Nie Wancong, don't mess around. We are just here to eat and have no intention of participating."
Before Liu Wuxie could speak, Nie Huan spoke first.
