Cultivation: I have an inventory

Xiao Changqing put away the third-level soul attack magic weapon Jiuqiu Xiao.

He is now quite wealthy, with more than 90,000 ready-made spirit stones, but he can't afford to spend it!

Think about it.

Today, he only bought two pieces of equipment, one of which was only a second-level magic weapon, and he spent nearly 23,000 low-grade spirit stones.

A quarter of it was spent!

Now the system has no equipment restrictions, the more the better, and he will definitely buy the appropriate high-level equipment later.

If there are a few more third-level magic weapons, he will not have enough spirit stones, and he will have to use elixirs and magic weapons to pay for it!

So save when you should, spend when you should.

Never be a sucker if you can bargain.

Anyway, it is difficult to find a suitable customer for this Jiuqiu Xiao except for him, and he can be regarded as helping the shop owner to clear the inventory.

So Xiao Changqing didn't feel embarrassed at all for slightly deceiving the shop owner.

But he didn't expect that the shop owner seemed to be embarrassed for him, thinking that he owed him a favor and wanted to compensate.

The shopkeeper thought seriously for a moment, as if he had made some kind of decision, and asked: "Daoyou, in three months, Liyang Xiancheng will hold an auction held once every ten years. I wonder if you are interested and have you got the ticket?"

Xiao Changqing was trying to suppress his inner ecstasy at the moment, trying not to show it.

The shopkeeper's words were completely beyond his expectations. After a pause, he shook his head and said: "No. I have only been in Liyang Xiancheng for a month and have never heard of this auction..."

The auction held once every ten years, with such a large scale in Liyang Xiancheng, must be extraordinary and there will be many treasures.

The shopkeeper nodded and introduced: "This auction is jointly organized by the City Lord's Mansion and the 'Jiu Lian Chamber of Commerce'. Daoist friends should have heard of the Jiu Lian Chamber of Commerce. It is not only the first chamber of commerce in our Dayu Xiuxian world, but its influence also covers several nearby Xiuxian kingdoms..."

"So the auction is of high standards, and the treasures at the auction are also all kinds of treasures. Treasures that are rarely seen at ordinary times may appear at the auction."

"But the tickets for the auction were snapped up by various forces as early as a year ago when they were first sold."

"Now it is estimated that only the City Lord's Mansion and the top ten families have some extra tickets. If Daoist friends have not joined a certain force, they may not be able to get tickets."

Xiao Changqing hurriedly said: "I have not joined a certain force."

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "I can see it."

I don't know how he saw it.

He took out a special token from his storage bag and said, "This ticket, even when it was first sold a year ago, required three hundred low-grade spirit stones. I just happened to have an extra one here, so I'll give it to you. I'll just thank you for your support of Duobao Pavilion's business. I hope you'll come again next time."

Xiao Changqing didn't hesitate to take it and said, "Thank you, shopkeeper. I'll definitely come to Duobao Pavilion often in the future!"

Today's visit to Duobao Pavilion gave him a lot of gains.

However, in the store that ranks among the largest in scale and has the most second-hand magic tools in Liyang Xiancheng, he only found two treasures that are worth buying.

This shows that the system has very high requirements for equipment, and it also shows that Xiao Changqing's level is relatively high now.

Although he is only in the middle stage of foundation building, his strength has reached the level of Jindan.

General second-level magic tools are not very useful to him.

Only beloved things like the 'Tianqing Fu Pen' that have been used by those with third-level skills can be of great help to him.

Although Liyang Xiancheng is prosperous and has many treasures, it is not easy for Xiao Changqing to find the right one for himself. He needs to rely on luck.

Especially after he has "explored" all the large stores in the city similar to Duobao Pavilion, it will be even more difficult to find the right treasure again.

For example.

The equipment that he most urgently wants to have to upgrade his spiritual root qualifications to heavenly spiritual roots is completely missing after searching in Duobao Pavilion.

Perhaps, this auction held every ten years is a good opportunity.

Large cities like Liyang Xiancheng hold auctions every ten years, and the treasures that can be auctioned are definitely not ordinary.

…

…

Returning to his newly rented cave from Duobao Pavilion.

Xiao Changqing was about to study the two new equipment he bought today, but he met his neighbor, the second-level formation master Zhu Xiaochuan.

Xiao Changqing wanted to pretend that he didn't see it and go home quickly, but Zhu Xiaochuan didn't know how to read people's moods at all. He stopped Xiao Changqing immediately and said with an excited face: "Brother Bai, you are back just in time. I was just looking for you."

Xiao Changqing was helpless: "Brother Zhu, what's the matter?"

Zhu Xiaochuan nodded: "Yes! It's a good thing! Let's go to your house, I'll tell you slowly. I drank your spiritual wine last time and it felt really good. It tastes good. If you have more stock, how about selling me some?"

After a former Xiao Changqing moved here and visited Zhu Xiaochuan.

Because Xiao Changqing was very 'polite' and cooperated with Zhu Xiaochuan to show off, Zhu Xiaochuan had a very good impression of Xiao Changqing, as if he had recognized this friend.

Xiao Changqing didn't visit him again later, but he visited Xiao Changqing twice by himself.

Every time he said that he had something to talk to Xiao Changqing about, but in fact it was all trivial matters, nothing important.

"Friend Zhu, I have something to do today. If it's not something particularly important, how about we talk about it another day?" Xiao Changqing declined tactfully.

"It's important! It's very important! Just trust me." Unfortunately, Zhu Xiaochuan didn't understand at all, and pulled Xiao Changqing into the cave.

Xiao Changqing couldn't force him to leave, so he had to listen to what the other party wanted today.

They sat down in the living room.

Lin Ziyu served snacks and spirit wine to the two of them.

Zhu Xiaochuan drank a mouthful of wine happily, and then said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Bai, you should not have joined the top ten families yet, right?"

"Not yet." Xiao Changqing glanced at him and asked: "Fellow Daoist Zhu, did you come here today to be a lobbyist for one of the top ten families?"

"Of course not!" Zhu Xiaochuan shook his head, drank two more mouthfuls of wine, tasted it, and then stopped keeping it a secret, and said with a smile: "I am here to give you a great opportunity! I told you before that it is difficult for you to join the City Lord's Mansion, but now the opportunity has come! The City Lord's Mansion is preparing to recruit a group of guest officials recently, and the conditions are much more relaxed than before. I have taken a look. With your conditions, plus I will help you say a few good words, you will have almost no problem joining the City Lord's Mansion!"

Xiao Changqing:...

I thought it was something important.

And that's it?

This new neighbor has lived in Liyang Xiancheng for decades, and claims to have a very good relationship with the City Lord's Mansion. As a result, the news is so backward?

He has received an invitation from the City Lord's Mansion a long time ago, okay!

"How about it, are you interested?" Zhu Xiaochuan didn't know why, and strongly recommended: "This is a rare opportunity. In the past hundred years since the establishment of Liyang Xiancheng, except for the first ten years, the conditions for the City Lord's Mansion to recruit guests may be more relaxed. In the past hundred years, at least there has been no such opportunity."

"Uh... Thank you for your kindness, Taoist Zhu. But I have other arrangements, and the City Lord's Mansion will not join."

Xiao Changqing is not a person who flatters others and does not give face at all.

In any case, this new neighbor, Taoist Zhu, is still warm-hearted and is kind-hearted to "remind" himself.

I guess in his opinion, this is indeed a good opportunity and he should seize it.

"What? Not joining the City Lord's Mansion?" Zhu Xiaochuan's eyes widened, and he said in disbelief: "Do you have a better choice than the City Lord's Mansion, Brother Bai?"

Xiao Changqing shook his head and said with a smile: "No. It's just that I'm used to being idle and not used to being a guest official. Being a guest official in the City Lord's Mansion requires at least a 30-year contract, and I'm drifting around. Maybe after more than ten years, I want to leave Liyang Fairy City. If I become a guest official, I can't leave."

"Thirty years may seem long, but for foundation-building cultivators like us, with a lifespan of nearly 200 years, it is not too long. Liyang Fairy City is so big that it is not a problem to cultivate to the stage of forming a pill... Of course, this depends on talent." Zhu Xiaochuan was a little anxious and said: "In short, Brother Bai, listen to my advice. This is a good opportunity! If it were an ordinary person, I would be too lazy to help him!"

"Brother Zhu, don't say more, I have made up my mind." Xiao Changqing didn't explain any more.

He could analyze the pros and cons with the Lin sisters, but he couldn't say some things to Zhu Xiaochuan too clearly.

He couldn't say that he thought the City Lord's Mansion was in trouble, and it was a big trouble that even Li Yang Zhenren could not solve.

Let alone whether Zhu Xiaochuan believed it or not, even if he believed it, with this guy's big mouth, he would spread his words...

"Alas, you... never mind." Zhu Xiaochuan sighed and shook his head.

Originally, he wanted to help Xiao Changqing and let Xiao Changqing get a chance to enter the City Lord's Mansion. Everyone is a neighbor, and they are so congenial, so it is right to help each other.

But who knew that Xiao Changqing was so unruly and unmotivated!

Originally, he had a high opinion of Xiao Changqing in his heart, but now it seems that he is from a small place after all, and is not adapted to a big city like Li Yang Xiancheng.

He thought that with his foundation-building cultivation and being a second-level talisman master, he could still be prosperous without joining any forces.

Yes.

Foundation-building cultivators in Liyang Immortal City are not considered the bottom class and can live a decent life.

But it is impossible to obtain more resources without joining a certain force.

Why would foundation-building cultivators from small places come to a prosperous place like Liyang Immortal City? Isn't it for resources and to improve their cultivation?

Zhu Xiaochuan was unhappy and had nothing to say, so he was ready to leave.

Although he was certain that he could recommend Xiao Changqing to the City Lord's Mansion, that was with Xiao Changqing's active cooperation, and he even had to pay some spiritual stones to make some connections.

If Xiao Changqing didn't cooperate, he would have no choice.

Just when Zhu Xiaochuan got up, someone else happened to come to the door.

It was none other than Yue Feng, one of the disciples who had invited Xiao Changqing and Liyang Zhenren before!

Last time, Xiao Changqing didn't directly reject Yue Feng, but just said that he would think about it, and if he thought it through, he would go to the City Lord's Mansion to find him.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Changqing didn't go to the City Lord's Mansion, and the other party came to the door himself.

"Fellow Daoist Yue, why are you here?" Zhu Xiaochuan saw the newcomer and didn't react at all.

Yue Feng greeted him with a smile: "Master Zhu Fu is here too. Do you know Fellow Daoist Bai?"

"I live next door, and Fellow Daoist Bai and I are neighbors..." Zhu Xiaochuan looked at Yue Feng, then at Xiao Changqing, and had a bad feeling in his heart, as if he had thought of something.

Sure enough.

The next moment, Yue Feng said, "I invited Bai Daoyou to join the City Lord's Mansion a month ago. At that time, Bai Daoyou did not agree to me immediately, saying that he would consider it. I came here today to ask Bai Daoyou how you are thinking..."

After speaking, Yue Feng looked at Xiao Changqing.

Xiao Changqing had no choice but to repeat what he had said to Zhu Xiaochuan.

Yue Feng had been smiling during these two visits, but after hearing Xiao Changqing's refusal, he frowned and said, "Bai Daoyou, are you sure you want to give up this opportunity? Do you want to consider it again?"

Although Zhu Xiaochuan was a little embarrassed at this time, he was still thinking about introducing Xiao Changqing to others and recommending him.

Unexpectedly, the City Lord's Mansion had already invited Xiao Changqing.

But at this time he still said enthusiastically: "Yes, Bai Daoyou, please think about it again! If you miss this village, you will miss this shop!"

Xiao Changqing naturally would not change his decision, and said: "I'm sorry for letting down Yue Daoyou. I'm an idle person, so I won't cause trouble to the City Lord's Mansion."

Listening to Xiao Changqing's gentle but firm words.

Yue Feng took a deep look, without showing too obvious emotions on his face, and said lightly: "Then I wish Bai Daoyou immortality and hope there will be opportunities to deal with each other in the future."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Zhu Xiaochuan patted Xiao Changqing on the shoulder, sighed, and looked regretful, "Bai Daoyou, you should learn from your mistakes."

Then he also chased Yue Feng and left quickly.

Faintly, he could be heard saying something good for Xiao Changqing: "Fellow Daoist Yue, don't be angry. Fellow Daoist Bai has just been in Liyangxian City for a short time, and his cognition may not have changed yet. He doesn't know what it means to join the City Lord's Mansion and how many benefits it has. I believe that after a long time, he will regret his decision today..."

Looking at the two people leaving, Xiao Changqing smiled and shook his head, muttering: "It should be said that this neighbor is indeed a warm-hearted person, not bad."

However, he will definitely not regret it.

As for whether there will be opportunities to deal with the City Lord's Mansion in the future, he doesn't know for the time being.

But he believes that even if there is an opportunity to deal with it in the future, it will not be him asking the City Lord's Mansion or Yue Feng for help.

On the contrary, it is very likely that Yue Feng, or even the City Lord's Mansion, may ask him for help!

"Inventory bar!"

As Xiao Changqing moved his head, the system interface immediately emerged, and the interfaces of the two newly purchased equipment today were opened, and new skills began to be studied.

This is where Xiao Changqing's confidence lies!
