Chapter 8 Seven hundred spirit stones to buy an old cricket? Buy it back for retirement?

A smile appeared on Elder Cui's lips: "Boy, remember today's lesson, remember not to look down upon others again! Why don't you send the guests to the VIP room No. 7 now!"

Baibaozhai is a circular building. VIP Room No. 7 is located on the second floor. Open the window and face the balcony of VIP Ward No. 19 opposite.

Qiu Cunmo put down the bead curtain and gauze curtain, dragged a bamboo chair to the balcony, released the big-tailed chicken, and drank tea and snacks while looking through today's auction list.

Today's auction items include elixirs, immortality, rare treasures, and beautiful women and spiritual beasts.

Her target was lot 18, a space artifact called a ring-linked wire jade bracelet. The market price was around 30 spiritual stones, and she had brought 50 yuan, which was probably enough.

The person presiding over the auction was a woman of about forty years old, with dignified features, an outstanding temperament, and an aura of grace and luxury in her hands.

She personally held a tray covered with red silk and placed it elegantly on the main podium.

"The little girl Yuan Ya is the person in charge today. I think many old friends know me, so I won't introduce myself too much. As per the old rules, this treasure in my hand is the lead for today's auction, a ringing cricket.

!”

The red silk was opened, and the dull sound of crickets came from the black porcelain urn.

"Ms. Yuan, don't you have any treasures in Bai Baozhai? I, Zhao Lingyun, don't care about playing with such things, but you actually use them as a guide to attract wealth?" The immature boy said from the balcony of the VIP room No. 19

He leaned forward and gnawed on a greasy chicken leg.

Bidding leads is the tradition of Baibaozhai auction.

Before each auction, the merchant will bring out a special treasure as a warm-up auction. The higher the enthusiasm for the auction and the more exciting the atmosphere, the more successful the auction will be.

Therefore, only the rarest treasures are put up for auction.

But cricket...

Even the top victorious general is not considered a treasure and is not worthy of being used as a lead.

But some people noticed something unusual: "Ms. Yuan, this cricket is probably not an ordinary cricket, isn't it? Why are they kept in earthen pots? Aren't crickets kept in bamboo baskets and jars?"

Yuan Ya smiled mysteriously: "Ten years ago, a family of bodyguards named Jiang was wiped out overnight. Have you heard about it?"

As soon as this statement came out, Baibaozhai exploded.

Jiang's Escort Agency had a family of seventy-three, all of whom were Lian Jiazi's escorts, but all of them died overnight. The strange thing is that no one knows how the more than seventy members of their family died.

Legend has it that the Jiang family members all died peacefully, as if everyone was asleep, and their deaths were painless.

"Ms. Yuan, the deaths of more than seventy members of the Jiang family are not related to this cricket, right?" Someone reacted.

"Yes or no, distinguished guests, why don't you take a look at the auction first." Yuan Ya placed a bamboo strip cage on the black urn and opened the lid.

"call out!"

A black cricket with a green glow all over its body jumped onto the mouth of the jar, chirping non-stop, with a scary and fierce light in its small eyes.

The guests were all attracted and leaned out to check.

"There's something wrong with this cricket. Why is it glowing green? Madam Yuan, are you sure it's a cricket?"

Of course it’s a cricket!

Qiu Cunmo glanced at it coldly, then retracted into the chair:... This is a cricket! An old cricket with a lifespan of less than a year!!

Generally speaking, the top-grade poisonous insects are used for refining poisonous insects, mostly scorpions, centipedes, poisonous snakes and toads because they are naturally aggressive.

Refining a cricket like this is more troublesome. The Gu master must use medicinal properties to arouse the cricket's aggressiveness, and then temper it with toxins so that it can survive by swallowing poisonous insects such as scorpions and centipedes during the refining process.

However, it was just a hassle. To her, crickets were just easy-to-find little bugs, so she didn't even bother to look at them.

Yuan Ya smiled lightly: "Calling it a cricket is not complete, because it has eaten countless poisonous insects and refined it into a cricket, so we have to call it a cricket!"

"Is this a Gu worm? Is this a Gu worm?!" Zhao Lingyun became interested, half of his body almost hanging on the balcony: "So many people from Jiang's Escort Bureau died in its hands?"

"Seventy-three members of Jiang's Escort Agency all died from its poison. Is Mr. Zhao interested?"

"Yes, tell me the price, I want it!" Zhao Lingyun excitedly patted the balcony, asking Yuan Ya to quickly announce the price.

Qiu Cunmo glanced at him wordlessly and muttered: "Country bumpkin, how can an old-fashioned Gu be so excited? Damn!"

She picked up the teacup with disdain and took a sip of the scented tea. She was pleasantly surprised: "Good tea, with the scent of flowers!"

Even in my previous life, I have never drunk such fragrant scented tea.

She quickly picked up the teapot and filled it again.

Yuan Ya laughed like a silver bell: "Second Master Zhao, don't worry, our starting price is very low, starting from thirty spiritual stones, and each increase in price is only ten spiritual stones..."

Qiu Cunmo:...Why don’t you go and grab it!!

For such a cricket that is about to die, the starting bid is thirty spirit stones?

Obviously you can rob it, but you have to hold an auction!

But then, I heard Zhao Lingyun's excited cry: "I want it!"

"Boom!" He knocked on the gong at the window.

Other guests were not far behind: "I want it too!"

"And I!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"..."

Beating the gong means that the customer takes a photo and raises the price. Each gong represents ten spiritual stones.

The atmosphere was getting higher and higher, people were bidding like crazy, and in the end, Zhao Lingyun sold it for 750 spiritual stones!

"Snapped!"

The teapot in Qiu Cunmo's hand fell to the ground.

Are these people stupid and rich in money?

More than 700 spiritual stones to buy an old cricket?

What are you doing? Going home to retire?

"Congratulations to Mr. Zhao in Room 19 for capturing the cricket." Yuan Ya said as she drove the cricket back to the urn.

Unexpectedly, a black shadow suddenly jumped over and knocked down the urn.

"Crack!"

The earthenware jar fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, and the crickets jumped out.

But before anyone could react, a big-sharp beak "Ba Chi" picked up the cricket in one bite, swallowed it on his back, and let out two provocative "Cuckoo" sounds.

Only then did everyone see clearly that this turned out to be a... big-tailed pheasant!!

Qiu Cunmo was completely petrified.

Damn big tail chicken, do you know what you are doing?

Is that a cricket that you swallowed in one gulp?

Those are 750 high-quality spiritual stones!!

"Gu Gu, Gu Gu!"

The big-tailed chicken didn't know it was in trouble. It walked up and down the stage proudly with its tail raised: ...For it, the cricket is a natural food chain. The meat that is brought to its mouth will be eaten in vain!

"Whose chicken is this?" Zhao Lingyun suddenly roared hysterically: "Catch it and stew it!!"

His guards rushed out and grabbed the big-tailed chicken.

Seeing that something was wrong, the big-tailed chicken immediately flapped its wings and flew to the window of VIP Room No. 7, seeking shelter.

But……

"Buzz!"

The invisible mental power formed a barrier and blocked it.

The big-tailed chicken bumped into the barrier. The whole chicken was stunned. It looked at Qiu Cunmo in bewilderment and slid down the barrier.

[Master, what do you mean by this? Why don’t you want me to come in? Do you want me to go in? 】
