Chapter 267: Before turning the stage behind the scenes, make a prelude today
The finale of the auction has finally arrived.
Among human beings, regardless of whether they are immortals or mortals, regarding the complicated architectural decorations and elegant tastes, apart from the immortal methods that make things up, the most important embellishments are nothing but gold and jade.
This is not the case among the demon clan. If their decorations want to appear solemn and beautiful, they will inevitably put more thought into the vegetation.
Especially for the phoenix, peacock and other bird-like monsters, according to legend, their fundamental base is a giant tree that can be used as a pillar of heaven. There are hundreds of nests built on the branches and leaves, and each nest is a small world.
, giving birth to a lineage of descendants.
The location of the auction house at this time is exactly inside, or "the back", of the more than 320 screen corridors.
The space here is not very wide, with only five or sixty feet in length and width. Gui Wujiu stepped into it, and at a glance, the scenery he saw was exquisite and elegant, and it was indeed different from human civilization.
As far as the eye can see, the extremely neat trees are very eye-catching. To be more precise, they are "tree trunks".
It seems that a huge tree with a diameter of more than ten feet and a width was cut off from a height of more than ten feet, leaving only a section of tree roots. Then it was completely hollowed out with three parts missing and one missing. The broken side faced north, and window grilles were carved on three sides to form a tree.
A small "private room" in the shape of a tree trunk.
Gui Wujiu counted carefully and found that there were twenty-four private rooms vertically and horizontally made of hollowed-out tree trunks. Even if they were all full, there would only be 576 seats.
The aisles between the twenty-four "trunks" are all covered with ankle-high tender grass. The color of the grass is very particular, and the five hundred tree trunks cover each other, as if they are one.
When Gui Wujiu arrived, more than 400 people were already seated in the more than 500 private rooms.
Since the process of verifying financial resources and surveying qualifications was adopted before the auction, most of the demon cultivators in Aoki City were not qualified to participate in this final important event.
On the way here, Gui Wujiu heard that the bottom line for financial qualifications is 30 billion spiritual stones. This amount is enough to exclude 99% of the demon monks who participated in the "Meng Dong Tian Hunting" meeting.
Shortly after Gui Wujiu entered the inner hall, he could vaguely see the Shanling and Shuiling tribes, Long Yue and Jingtu; the Six-winged Tiger tribe, Yan Qingshan; Tianmangshan Liuze and four other people; the Tianma tribe, Ma Zhen;
Two or three young monks whose aura was very close to that of Yan Qingshan entered the hall one after another.
Ma Zhen smiled calmly at Gui Wujiu. When he appeared here, there was no trace of embarrassment or embarrassment on his face. Instead, he looked like an old friend meeting. After clasping his fists and saluting, he went to find his own private room.
Being qualified to appear here has proven Ma Zhen's net worth.
Gui Wujiu nodded secretly. With Ma Zhen's cultivation and background, he really didn't look like someone who lacked 500 million spiritual stones. His contact with him was extremely subtle, both cunning and frank. Gui Wujiu could only wait and see.
, it doesn’t hurt to treat him as a friend for the time being.
At this time, he felt something on his body, making a strange buzzing noise. Gui Wujiu took it out, it was his auction and meeting order talisman. When he picked it up, he saw that all the decorative labels on it had disappeared.
A number was revealed: five hundred and fifty-two.
Looking up and looking around, behind each "tree stump", there is also a number displayed. Starting from the first line, it is "one" to "twenty-four", and each line increases in sequence, which is obviously the number of the private room corresponding to the sign.
.
After Gui Wujiu took a careful look, he frowned. His number "552" was exactly the private room on the far right of the second-to-last row in the palace, which was actually the most remote corner.
With Gui Wujiu's current status, even the demon kings of the major demon clans are on equal terms. I don't know why the Peacock clan would arrange such a remote seat with him.
It's just that I'm not a person who pays attention to the ostentation. I might as well live with the details. I immediately found "No. 552" and sat down casually.
In the small private room, there are tables, chairs, wine, tea, and all kinds of dried and fresh fruits. It is quite rich. However, there is no dedicated person to serve. This is a slightly different atmosphere from the humane atmosphere.
In the middle of the seat, there is a vat of sand and a twig two feet long, which are tools used to deliver spiritual stones and treasures. With this object, as soon as the transaction process is completed, money can be made on the spot. The goods are cleared and there is no need to collect them afterwards.
The little blacksmith was sitting in the private room, also occupying a seat, looking around and in high spirits.
After a while, Gui Wujiu suddenly felt a push, and his body seemed to be floating in the air. Looking closely, he saw that the more than 500 "tree stumps" in the hall seemed to be placed on fixed tracks. It moves around regularly from east to west, north and south, disrupting the order.
At the same time, a layer of white light suddenly appeared above the main entrance and the carved windows of the "Tree Stump".
Although no one told him, Gui Wujiu immediately had a feeling. When he looked outside the private room, although everything was as usual, it seemed that there was just an extra layer of crystal glass;
However, if someone looks from the outside in, no matter the divine vision, they have been completely cut off, and they can only see clear waves.
Gui Wujiu realized in his heart that this was a small way to hide his identity by rearranging the layout and order in the palace after all the people attending the meeting had arrived.
Looking up, Gui Wujiu's current position was very close to the high platform hosting the auction. He picked up the talisman and saw that "five hundred and fifty-two" had become "twelve". It was the first line. In the middle.
At this moment, a voice suddenly appeared out of thin air and reached the ears of everyone in the hall: "I have to rush home to sleep. Before that, I have to reluctantly host this auction. Please bear with me. My name is Kong Kong. Put down the tassel."
This man's voice was soft and weak, as if he had not woken up, but it penetrated everyone's ears very clearly.
First hear his voice, then see his person.
At this time, everyone in every private room focused their attention on the high platform. They suddenly realized that there was an extra person in the center of the venue hosting the auction.
However, after being stagnant for five or six breaths, a series of exclamations came from the hall, which was extremely shocking.
Although the timbres of these sounds have been specially processed after passing through their respective private rooms, they all sound similar, which makes it difficult for anyone to follow the clues; but once there is more noise, the elegant and elegant atmosphere here is instantly broken, and there is a little more noise, as if The immortal energy suddenly disappeared and fell into the mortal world.
The people in the hall were all elite disciples of the major demon clans, and all of them had seen the world. But the person in front of them named "Kong Ying" still gave them a great shock.
Judging from the appearance, this middle-aged man named Kong Ying is wearing rich clothes and a high crown, and has an outstanding bearing. He has a square face. Although he has thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a straight nose, he looks very strong, but there is nothing to tell about. Something surprising.
Looking at his cultivation level again, this person has not hidden his Qi. He is indeed very profound. He is already in the realm of the "Third Transformation" of the so-called "Three Transformations of Juyuan" among the demon clan, which is equivalent to only Tianxuan among human cultivation. A monk in the realm of separation and union.
What can be proved is that this person said that he was "rushing to go home and sleep", which was alluding to the fact that he was deep in hibernation and preparing to break away from the demon king. Perhaps a hundred years later, this Kong Ying will be a demon king.
A very important figure among the demon clan.
However, although this level of cultivation is higher than that of the more than 500 demon cultivators present, it cannot be said to be that great. Based on the status of the cultivators in this temple, most of them have received personal advice from the demon king of their clan.
A state of separation and union is not a concern.
The reason why this man's appearance caused a shock was because his surname was Kong, and his feet were completely uncovered. With a little observation, you could see that there were five kinds of brilliance flowing behind him, like a peacock spreading its tail.
This is a monk who is a direct descendant of the Peacock clan and appears openly!
Aoki City has been in a strange state of "hiding its ears and stealing its bells" for a long time.
It is said that there is a major cultivator of the Peacock Clan in the city who is in the realm of the Demon King, but no one has ever seen it. Everyone knows that the Fujie Hall, the Phantom Hall, the Sanfu Hall, and the Nine Wings Hall are personally run by the Peacock Clan. But every place in the city is run by the Peacock Clan.
, the characters who really come forward to take care of things are all vassal races of the Peacock Clan, such as the demon cultivators of the Mulberry Bird Clan.
Today, will this layer of window paper finally break?
Kong Ying, a member of the peacock clan on the stage, seemed to think that the sensation caused by his appearance was not big enough, and said loudly: "Before the auction begins, I have something to tell you."
"Although the method of this bartering auction is refreshing, all of the people present at the meeting are also of extraordinary status, and their wealth is far greater than that of Kong. But after all, it happened suddenly, and everyone and the clans behind them...
Even if you have many good things, you may not always carry them with you."
"Therefore, today's meeting is actually just a 'pre-meeting'."
"Two hundred and seventy-six years later, before the next 'Meng Dong Tian Hunting', there will be another trade fair, ten times larger than today. At that time, there will be friends from other places coming through special channels to participate in the grand event.
.”
"In addition, the picture scroll that each of you obtained previously has a hidden mystery. The number of famous items and the price are not static. If there are changes in the future, there will naturally be a reminder on the picture scroll. Please be careful.
pay attention to."
"If you are satisfied with the treasures that are about to appear today, in two hundred and seventy-six years, when your nephews and juniors come to attend the meeting, they must bring enough savings. The treasures and heavy treasures that will appear here will be far away.
Above today. Even if you have no intention of attending the hunting party, if you just come to participate in the trading at the fair, the peacock clan will welcome you."
"Now, the auction will officially begin."
In their respective private rooms, everyone was excited for a moment, as if they were caught off guard by the Peacock Clan's large-scale battle. This was the first time that the Peacock Clan publicly admitted that they had tacitly approved the demon cultivators of other races to participate in the "Mengdong Field Hunting" meeting; and, the Peacock Clan
Taking advantage of Qingmu City's status as a thoroughfare for the nine clans, it is clear that there is a more far-reaching plan.
Looking at the entire auction venue, the only one who looked calm and even somewhat complacent was the young blacksmith who was in the same room as Gui Wujiu.
At this time, in the private room No. 12, the little blacksmith put his hands on his hips and said to Gui Wujiu: "What do you think? Is the Peacock clan making a big move?"
"No blame. If you win the field hunting meeting this time, you must ask the Peacock Saint Ancestor if the Peacock Clan is going to war with other racial sects? Let the Peacock Saint Ancestor tell you how to conquer the battlefield.
