Immortal Road
Main text Chapter 44: Auction and Ancient Relics
Ishikawa was not annoyed by the waiter, who was a bully. There were too many of them, and he was too lazy to argue with them. However, he needed a room urgently, even if it was a little more expensive.
Otherwise, he didn't know when he would find one. He couldn't sleep on the street. There were so many cultivators in the town, and it was not safe at night. However, most of these inns were guarded by cultivators, so they were safe.
"Twenty spirit stones a night, can you afford it?" The waiter was trembling when he was looked at coldly by Ishikawa. He didn't know that the cultivator standing in front of him was an eighth-level cultivator in the Qi training stage. Otherwise, he would not dare to speak to a cultivator in the innate stage in this tone even if he had ten courage.
Ishikawa threw out twenty spirit stones directly and said coldly, "Take me there."
"This..." The waiter looked at Ishikawa in a daze. He couldn't understand why a casual cultivator in such tattered clothes could throw out twenty spirit stones at once, and just for one night's room fee.
You know, twenty spirit stones can buy a low-grade magic weapon, or ordinary elixir for one month of cultivation.
Ishikawa's generosity made the waiter suddenly confused.
"Thirty spirit stones, we want this room." The young man who spoke just now saw Ishikawa throw out twenty spirit stones, and he took out thirty spirit stones without hesitation.
"Brother Qin, it's too expensive, and there is only one room. Let's go ask somewhere else." The female cultivator said.
Ishikawa heard that the voice was very familiar, and turned around to see that the person was Qiu Yun. Since that day, the two have not seen each other for more than three years. But when he saw each other's face, Ishikawa immediately recognized her.
In three years, Qiu Yun has become more and more beautiful. The white Taoist robe she wears looks very fitting and dignified, and she looks like she is not worldly.
Qiu Yun also recognized Ishikawa immediately. She will never forget the scene that night. In the past three years, Qiu Yun often thought of what happened that night. She had imagined countless times that they would meet again, but she didn't expect that they would meet in such an occasion today.
The young man saw Qiu Yun and Ishikawa staring at each other, and snorted coldly: "What are you looking at? If you look again, I'll dig out your eyeballs. I'll give you twenty spirit stones, and you can go find a room somewhere else."
Twenty spirit stones is really not a small amount. For an ordinary fourth-level casual cultivator in the Qi training period, it is like pie in the sky.
If it weren't for an urgent matter, Ishikawa really didn't want to compete with Qiu Yun for such a room, but Ishikawa had to live in this room today. It was late, and Ishikawa was alone, spending the night in the wild, which was absolutely very dangerous.
Even if he showed his eighth-level cultivation in the Qi training period, he might not be able to deter those cultivators who were killing people and stealing treasures.
Besides, there was only one room here, which was not enough for the two men and one woman to live in, so they must find another place to live.
"Waiter, take me to the room." Ishikawa said lightly.
The cultivator surnamed Qin was extremely annoyed by Ishikawa's disregard. Ishikawa actually treated him as if he didn't exist. Moreover, twenty spiritual stones were indeed not a small amount. He originally wanted to use these twenty spiritual stones to drive Ishikawa away and give this room to Qiu Yun to live in, so that he could get a lot of favor from Qiu Yun. Unexpectedly, Ishikawa was so ungrateful.
"Daoyou are too disrespectful. Waiter, I will offer forty spiritual stones for this room." The cultivator surnamed Qin said.
"Forty? Really?" The waiter showed a hint of joy in his eyes. This was a great thing.
"One hundred spiritual stones." Ishikawa shouted without hesitation. One hundred spiritual stones is not a small amount, but Ishikawa can definitely afford it. Any piece of ore in the Immortal Mansion is enough to offset the room fee for one night. However, if Ishikawa didn't urgently need this room to count his belongings, he wouldn't easily offer such a high price.
"One hundred spiritual stones." The waiter looked at the eighty spiritual stones that Ishikawa threw over, and his eyes were slightly red.
The cultivator surnamed Qin watched all this with his eyes wide open, his face turned pale. He did have a lot of spiritual stones on him, but these spiritual stones were all useful. If the house price was fifty spiritual stones, he could still take it out with a grit of teeth. But he couldn't take out a hundred spiritual stones out of thin air to live like this for a night, and he didn't dare to do it.
The cultivator surnamed Qin seemed to be slapped hard. He wanted to show off in front of Qiu Yun, but he didn't expect to be severely humiliated by this ragged fourth-level cultivator in the Qi training period.
"Sir, please, I'll take you to see the room." The waiter looked at the face of the cultivator surnamed Qin, and knew that he couldn't offer a higher price, so he quickly and cordially invited Ishikawa upstairs.
Ishikawa bowed and said, "Goodbye!"
This sentence was naturally said to Qiu Yun, but it was a great irony in the eyes of the cultivator surnamed Qin.
The cultivator surnamed Qin gnashed his teeth in hatred, but it was difficult to express it in front of Qiu Yun in the inn. He had to swallow his anger.
…………………………
“You also feel a hundred spiritual stones, what a courage!”
The waiter took a hundred spiritual stones from Ishikawa and took them to the innkeeper to show off, but he didn’t expect to be scolded by the innkeeper.
“Is someone who can take out a hundred spiritual stones an ordinary person?” The innkeeper said with a glare.
“I see he is wearing tattered clothes…”
"How many times have I told you, don't judge a book by its cover? How dare you, a mere mortal, to figure out the thoughts of a cultivator? Come with me. I can't spare you today."
After a while, an old man and a young man appeared in Ishikawa's room.
The shopkeeper took out eighty spiritual stones and put them on the table, and said respectfully: "Fellow Taoist, the waiter in my shop is young and ignorant, and I accidentally offended him. I hope you, Taoist, won't blame him."
In a blink of an eye, he said angrily: "Why don't you kneel down quickly for this senior?"
Ishikawa waved his hand and said: "There is a shortage of inn rooms these days, so it doesn't hurt to raise the price slightly. Let's forget about it."
"Fellow Taoist, I don't care about the faults of small people. If you need anything, just say it and I will try my best to satisfy you." Although the shopkeeper is only on the second floor of Qi training period, he is very shrewd. Not long after entering Ishikawa's room, he also Ishikawa looked at it.
Ishikawa knew nothing about the auction. In this case, Ishikawa did not need to go out to inquire and said, "Tell me about the auction."
The old man pondered for a moment and said respectfully: "As we all know, the annual auction is one of the most important events in the cultivation town, but this year there are more monks than before because this year is the day when the ancient ruins are opened. , most fellow Taoists hope to go to the ancient ruins and try their luck."
"Ancient ruins?" Ishikawa asked in surprise, "I hope the shopkeeper will make it clear!"
It’s sixth on the new book list, can fifth be far behind? Today's fourth update is released. I hope fellow Taoists will recommend and vote for Yunhe!
