"I'm just betting on your age. If I win, then you tell me your age truthfully. If I lose, how about I double the auction fee and give it to you?" Li Mo suddenly wanted to know about Linghu Yan.
His age was because the grotto had been standing in the Soul-free City for who knows how many years, but such a young helmsman made people suspicious. Moreover, from Linghuyan's eyes, Li Mo saw loneliness, desolation, and inability to control himself.
Just such a pair of eyes, a bit inconsistent with a face in her thirties, Li Mo suddenly became interested and wanted to know the age of such a woman.
Normally it would be impolite to ask a woman her age, but the way Li Mo used gambling was quite acceptable to Linghu Yan, because she lived in such an environment and everything was related to gambling. She didn't feel bad about using gambling to tell her age.
.
Linghu Yan stared at Li Mo for a long time, not knowing what she was looking at. After a while, she said quietly: "Okay, I can bet you that if Honglian Yehuo can capture three million Qi-enhancing pills,
, I will tell you my true age."
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Li Mo didn't see Linghu Yan's pink cheeks and unnatural expression. He was only focused on looking at the price of the Red Lotus Fire Auction outside.
At this time, the Qi-increasing pills stayed at 2.1 million Qi-increasing pills. The old man with a white beard had already hit the hammer twice. One more time, which meant that the Red Lotus Karma Fire would be sold at a price of 2.1 million.
The white-bearded old man was also very anxious. He didn't want Red Lotus Industry Fire to be auctioned at this price, so he talked about the benefits and advantages of Red Lotus Industry Fire again with his sharp tongue, but no one had bid yet.
"Alas..." The old man with the white beard was about to bang the hammer.
"Is it only 2.1 million? I want it to grow!" Li Mo smiled confidently and twitched the corners of his mouth.
"Two and a half million!"
"What?" The almost silent auction house was ignited again, as if a bowl of water was poured into a boiling oil pan, and the thunderbolts kept ringing.
"What's going on? Why did someone suddenly quote a price of 2.5 million?" The Zhengda alchemist in a blue robe shouted angrily, because the price of 2.1 million was exactly what he quoted.
, the red lotus karma fire that was about to be obtained flew away again.
And the medicine man in yellow robe was gloating at his joke.
Other people were also asking who the person who suddenly raised the price was and why he suddenly quoted a high price. Some people vaguely felt that it was the same voice that bought the Wannian Guru last time.
"Two million six hundred thousand!" Another master from the Apocalypse realm quoted a high price.
"When something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Could it be that there are other secrets in the red lotus fire?" Many people couldn't bear it anymore. They speculated that there should be other treasures in the embryo of the red lotus fire. Otherwise,
How could there be so many people bidding?
"Three million!" After several quotations, Honglian Yehuo fulfilled Li Mo's wish and had raised the price to three million Qi Enhancing Pills. She lost the big bet with Linghu Yan.
Although Li Mo stopped bidding, the bidders couldn't stop. They blindly believed that there must be something good in the red lotus industry fire, and this idea became more and more intense, and it was unstoppable.
"Three million and a half million!"
When the quotation reached this level, what made him the most angry was Zhen Suihen. He was already close to losing the hammer, but suddenly someone appeared out of nowhere and directly quoted 2.5 million, which caught him off guard. Originally, the Tianwei Domain was not a righteous one.
On his territory, he was hunting for treasures. He overheard that there was an auction of Red Lotus Industry Fire, so he rushed over in a hurry, but who knew that the damn auction only accepted Qi-increasing pills. This made him go to find so many in one moment.
I begged my grandpa and sued my grandma for Qi-increasing pills. I finally managed to collect more than two million Qi-increasing pills. When I saw that I had the items, I was overwhelmed.
"What a shame, let me know who it is. I have to pull out his skin and make it into donkey-hide gelatin." Zhen Suihen sat down on the seat. This auction of red lotus industry fire has nothing to do with him anymore, because
He doesn't have that many Qi-enhancing pills.
If Zhen Duohen knew that the person who only accepted Qi-increasing pills from the auction and the person who maliciously raised the price were the same person, I'm afraid he would immediately go crazy.
"Three million and a half million!" The last bid, the last hammer sound, this innate fire red lotus karma fire belongs to one of the Ya Jian.
After hearing the quotation of more than three million, Linghu Yan's face had lost all color, and now it was even whiter. Linghu Yan's skin was originally fair and translucent, and her muscles were smooth and white. Now due to lack of blood, it is a little white.
Her charming figure, coupled with her thin body, makes people feel the urge to take her into their arms and care for her.
"Hahaha, it's already 3.5 million at this time. According to the bet between the two of us, you lost!"
"You are shameless, using such methods."
"Haven't your grotto been used before?"
Linghu Yan remained silent. In the auction business, there is no way she would be without trust.
"Actually, people are like this. When people think about something that is originally ordinary, its price will skyrocket, and you can't stop it even if you want to stop it. This is human nature and the bad nature of human beings. We have to admit that human beings
Whether they are mortals or cultivators, they all have deep evil roots." While Li Mo sighed, his eyes did not forget to stare at Linghu Yan.
"And some shameless people have made a fortune by taking advantage of human beings' bad roots. Am I right?"
"Hahaha, I suddenly became very interested in your age. I am so rich that I dare not say anything. If I were a greedy person, do you think I would give away the Ten Thousand Years Ancient Ru for no reason?"
"That sloppy old man is worth the price!"
"..." Li Mo was speechless.
"Then you don't want to fulfill your bet?"
"Who said I won't fulfill it!" Linghu Yan wiped the curtain of her head and attached it from above her ears, then lowered her head and remained silent for nearly ten minutes. Then she raised her head, as if making a difficult decision, and said: "I am Linghu
Yan, eighty years old this year, is the young lover of Earl Wen Renjun of the Wenren family, and the helmsman of the grotto."
Hearing this, Li Mo was breathless. He and Linghu Yan were in a private room. Naturally, there was an element of ambiguity in their conversation, and Ling Huyan was teasing him. Although Li Mo didn't feel anything, it seemed that
Fortunately, now that he suddenly heard that the woman sitting next to him and having an affair with him was actually eighty years old, he almost burst out.
"You...you...you are eighty years old?"
"Hahaha... How about it? You called me, an eighty-year-old old witch, Sister Yan. Do you feel like vomiting now? Haha..." Linghu Yan's smile was a little forced and a little sour. Li
Mo didn't understand the meaning.
"It's okay!" Li Mo said awkwardly.
Li Mo was originally a very cold person, but during his contact with Linghu Yan, her deliberate closeness still gave Li Mo a sense of comfort. He had a good impression of the helmsman of the grotto. After all, no matter what
For some reason, she still treats him well.
Linghu Yan's mood became a little abnormal after she said that she was eighty years old, and she kept mumbling, "I am an eighty-year-old witch, and I am Wen Renjun's little lover."
Not long after, Ling Huyan's body was seen trembling, and a stream of black gas came out of his neck. The black gas was not pure, but in the middle of the black gas, there were black spots the size of a thumb, and there were
The pungent smell of black gas is intimidating.
"What is this?"
After the black gas came out, it circled around Linghu Yan's head three times. Linghu Yan also left the body with the black smoke, circled around her head three times and fell into coma.
Fortunately, we were in a private room at this time and could not be detected by outsiders. Otherwise, the unconsciousness of the helmsman of the grotto would be enough to cause a huge storm, and Li Mo would not be spared at the center of the storm.
Li Mo endured the uneasy feeling in his heart, walked up to Ling Huyan, picked her up from the ground and put her on a chair.
"I have to wait for you to wake up on your own!" Li Mo wouldn't do it. This was the first time he had seen this situation. He was inexperienced and was afraid that if he made a wrong step, Linghu Yan would never wake up again.
.
Half sitting and half lying on the chair, Linghu Yan closed her eyes, but her body still couldn't stop shaking.
This continued for a long time. Seeing that there was no other way, Li Mo could only squat on the ground and hold Linghu Yan in his arms with both hands to stop his shaking body.
Li Mo held Linghu Yan like this, and her body shaking slowed down. The moment Li Mo came into contact with her body, a cold air rushed towards her, and he had to use Linghu Yan's body to spread it from his arm.
Into Li Mo's body.
This kind of cold and cold air was extremely poisonous. Li Mo could feel the breath of death from it. He saw one of his feet suddenly stamping on the ground. The vitality in his body circulated rapidly, and Yazhen, who had been sucking blood to recover, also used all the protective energy in his body.
Li Mo's hands gathered together to stop the cold air.
Linghu Yan, who was unconscious at this time, was still mumbling: "Mom, I don't want this identity anymore. I'm too tired. I want to be a daughter who is loved and cared for, not an eighty-year-old witch. I
I don’t want to be the helmsman of the grotto, I don’t want to be called Linghu Yan, I am Linghu Miao, I want to be myself.”
Li Mo looked at Linghu Yan in his arms. Tears were streaming down from the corners of her eyes, flowing down her pink face, as if she was fleeing. It had a bitter taste.
Li Mo hugged Linghu Yan like this, while still blocking the cold air. After a long time, he heard the auction of the ultimate treasure, the amber rooster, starting outside, and Linghu Yan woke up quietly.
Seeing a grown man hugging her, she shouted: "Ah!" The sound was harsh and almost shook the unsuspecting Li Mo's eardrums.
"Why are you holding me?"
"You suddenly fell into coma, your body was shaking non-stop, and your body temperature was as cold as a deep pool of ice. I picked you up from the ground to a chair."
Linghu Yan checked her body and saw no changes, so she said, "Then did I say anything random while I was in coma?"
"No!"
"You lied to me. I must have said something. I always talk nonsense every time I'm unconscious. Why didn't I say anything this time?"
