One thought is eternal

Auction

Not long after, on Xiangyun Mountain, Bai Xiaochun limped, his hair stood up, his face was a little dark, and he crawled back into the yard with lingering fear. When he thought of the countless lightnings chasing him just now, his heart trembled, and he immediately I swear that I will never fly with Yujian in a thunderstorm day.

It’s not flying, it’s dying

Inside the wooden house, Bai Xiaochun bared his teeth and grinned. It took him a long time to calm down. He sat cross-legged on the bed, watching the wind and rain outside the window.

“Second-level elixir is suitable for people below the eighth level of Qi Condensation. If you want to continue to improve your cultivation, you can only refine a third-level elixir.” Bai Xiaochun leaned on his chin and muttered.

“Third-order elixir must be extremely difficult, and it will be safe only after you are familiar with the second-tier elixir. Otherwise, the foundation will be unstable, and success will not be guaranteed.Big. “Bai Xiaochun opened the storage bag, looked at his savings, and sighed. He had received a lot of gifts with his status as a disciple of Glory.

It’s just that the refining medicine these days is terribly expensive. Although his habit of refining alchemy is very frugal, his savings are still reduced a lot at this moment.

“It can’t go on like this, there will always be a time when it runs out.” Bai Xiaochun bowed his head and thought hard.

“I’m a very good medicine student now, I can sell the medicine I made.” Bai Xiaochun immediately cheered up when he thought of this, and when the rain stopped outside in the morning of the next day, he immediately left the residence and went to the Fangshi at the foot of the mountain to inquire. After a while, after knowing the price of the elixir, I bought a lot of herbs, and even took the contribution to the Zongmen to exchange some of them.

Then he returned to the Medicine Refining Pavilion and started refining medicine.

He didn’t refine the second-order elixir, although the price is higher, but the consumption is not small, and Bai Xiaochun knows his habit, once the medicine is refined, it will take too long.

So he chose the first-order elixir he was most familiar with, and after a few days, he refined three kinds of elixir with different grains and two sticks of spiritual incense, and then went down the mountain to Fangshi.

The size of the market under the south bank of Lingxi Sect is small. Except for the elders of the sect and some powerful inner disciples who can own shops, most of them are opened by the cultivation families of Donglinzhou.

Like a small town, on weekdays, disciples from the inner and outer sects of the three mountains on the south bank of the Lingxi Sect come and go here, and it is very lively. Bai Xiaochun has been here many times. Inside the pharmacy, there was a dry cough, and immediately the clerk in the pharmacy rushed forward.

“Call your shopkeeper here, this time I will not only buy herbs, but also sell some pills.” Bai Xiaochun sat on the chair and said with a smile.

Not long after, a middle-aged man in a purple robe walked quickly, and when he saw Bai Xiaochun, a smile appeared on his face.

“Fellow Daoist Bai, my descendant, Sun Chen, has long heard about fellow Daoist Bai’s many brilliant events, but for fear of disturbing fellow Daoist, he didn’t take the initiative to pay a visit. No wonder.” The middle-aged man sat beside Bai Xiaochun with a smile on his face. , clasped his fists and said, regarding Bai Xiaochun, he didn’t dare to offend him, knowing that the other party’s status in the sect is detached, especially the status of the Glorious Disciple, the family he belongs to, even if there is a century-old agreement with the head, still wants to please .

Bai Xiaochun laughed out loud, and after some courtesy with the middle-aged man, he took out the three medicine bottles and the two sticks of spiritual incense, and put them on the table.

“Young Daoist Sun, let’s estimate the price.” Bai Xiaochun raised his chin.

Sun Chen picked up these elixirs with a smile, and after looking at them one by one, his expression showed surprise. Although these first-order elixirs were all low-grade, with impurities accounting for 80% of them, they were infinitely close to middle-grade, unlike the elixir they bought before. Medicines are also low-grade, but the impurities are 80% or 45%.

“Brother Bai is very skilled in medicine. My Sun family wants all these elixirs. How about it, how about a price of one hundred and twenty spirit stones?” Sun Chen raised his head and glanced at Bai Xiaochun, his eyes gradually brightened.

Bai Xiaochun was immediately pleasantly surprised. This price is almost equivalent to four spirit stones for one elixir, which is already the highest among the first-order low-grade elixirs.

In fact, the average cost is only one and a half spirit stones per elixir.

With a happy mood, Bai Xiaochun exchanged with Sun Chen, Sun Chen made a show of friendship, the two chatted happily, and finally agreed to send some pills, Bai Xiaochun did not ask for spirit stones, but in exchange for After taking the equivalent herbal medicine, he left contentedly.

Time passed, and several months passed quickly. In the past few months, Bai Xiaochun, apart from refining first-order elixir and selling it in exchange for a large amount of herbs, was also constantly familiar with the refining of various second-order elixir.

Gradually, he became more proficient in refining second-order elixir.

At the same time, the cooperation with the Sun Family Pharmacy became more and more stable. Almost all of his elixirs were bought by the Sun Family Pharmacy. On this day, Bai Xiaochun took out a few bottles of elixir in the Sun Family Pharmacy, and exchanged them with plants. When Sun Chen was chatting, Sun Chen said something with emotion.

“Brother Bai, with your attainments in refining medicine, why not refine some second-order elixir. Three months later, there will be a hundred auctions here every few years. If brother Bai can refine second-order elixir at that time, Sun It can be arranged for an auction, the price will definitely be much higher.” Sun Chen looked at Bai Xiaochun, in the past few months of contact, he found that Bai Xiaochun’s personality is very cheerful, and he is tactful, and it is very pleasant to make friends with each other, so he suggested.

Bai Xiaochun has also heard of the hundreds of auctions held every few years. It is an auction held by hundreds of cultivation families in Donglinzhou. There are three auctions in total. The first one is in Bei’anfang City, and the second one is In Nan’an Fang City, the last match was held in Donglin City, the largest monk city in Donglinzhou.

Bai Xiaochun had been in Lingxi Sect for several years, and this auction had been held before, but at that time he had just become an outer disciple, and he was busy stealing spirit tail chickens, so he had no interest in the auction.

At this moment, Bai Xiaochun pondered for a while, and Bai Xiaochun was a little moved. After inquiring about the time of the auction on the South Bank, Bai Xiaochun and Sun Chen said goodbye, returned to the Alchemy Pavilion, sat cross-legged and thought about it, and made a decision.

“Sun Chen is right. Instead of selling it little by little like this, it’s better to take this opportunity and sell it at a good price at once, so that you can get more precious plants and trees.” Thinking of this, Bai Xiaochun thought of a second-order elixir , and finally chose the Ziqi Shengling Pill that he was most familiar with.

With this determination, Bai Xiaochun closed his eyes.Close the Medicine Refining Pavilion and refine the Ziqi Shengling Pill. Time passed. Two months later, as Bai Xiaochun spent a lot of money on the plants and trees for refining the elixir, he had already refined three bottles of Ziqi. Shengling Pill, each bottle contains ten pills.

Especially one of them, the color is not quite the same as the lavender of other elixir, it is dark purple, the fragrance of the medicine is not strong, as if restrained but not scattered.

When this elixir was being refined, the elixir furnace in front of Bai Xiaochun vibrated visibly differently than usual, and even the ground fire suddenly swelled up.

At this moment, when he held the deep purple elixir and looked at it in front of him, his eyes showed pride and excitement.

“Medium-grade me, Bai Xiaochun, finally refined another medium-grade elixir.”

“Mid-grade elixir, I’m afraid it’s not often seen at auctions, but it’s still a bit short of achieving a sensational effect. After all, this auction is held every few years, and there are many rare treasures.” Bai Xiaochun thought for a moment, gritted his teeth , took out the tortoise pattern pot, and began to refine the spirit.

After three times, the silver light shone, and the elixir was no longer a mediocre product, but a breakthrough high-grade product, becoming a high-grade product

This kind of high-quality product is already amazing, with only more than 10% impurities.

Bai Xiaochun looked satisfied, and looked at the high-quality Ziqi Shengling Pill in his hand. The color of this pill was almost black. Although the three spirit patterns on it were dim, they were equally obvious. extraordinary.

Looking at the elixir in his hand, Bai Xiaochun suddenly felt that he had found another way to spread his fame to the world. He laughed triumphantly, took out a knife, and drew a nice little turtle on the elixir.

“Mr. Turtle is coming out of the rivers and lakes again.” Bai Xiaochun stood up excitedly, his eyes showing anticipation.

Holding the elixir, Bai Xiaochun went down the mountain. When he came back an hour later, he was refreshed and smug. Sun Chen’s surprise when he saw that he had taken out the three bottles of Ziqi Shengling elixir appeared in his mind, and When he took out the high-quality elixir that had been refined three times, the opponent’s jaw seemed to be about to drop, and he was stunned and shocked.

“Just wait for the auction in a month.” Bai Xiaochun looked at the piece in his hand.

Section Reading 56

Jade card, this is the qualification card for participating in the auction, with this item, you can go to the auction.

During these days, the topic of everyone in the sect gradually brought up the auction, and soon, the disciples of the three mountains on the south bank made preparations one after another, planning to try their luck at the auction, so the market at the foot of the mountain became more lively than ever

“I heard from the brothers in the North Shore of the family that in the first auction held by them, Huangquanhuo appeared. It is a legendary thing. Even if it is just a flame, it can be called a rare treasure. It was sold by the North Shore A disciple bought it with a lot of money.”

“This time, there are many rare treasures in the auction of hundreds of Xiuzhen families, especially the medicinal pills, which are even more astonishing. Presumably, it should be caused by the half-year battle between the outer sect Tianjiao on both sides of the north and south banks.”

“It should be for this reason. The Tianjiao battle between the outer sects of the north and the south is a grand event of my Lingxi sect. I hate that my south bank has been in the top ten for so many years. I have always been inferior to the north bank in terms of the top ten choices. Shame on you”

In the next month, there were more and more discussions about the auction in the sect. Bai Xiaochun also heard a lot, especially the Tianjiao battle between the outer sects on the north and south sides. He also heard about it, but he didn’t take it to heart. .

A month passed quickly, and this morning, Bai Xiaochun was meditating, when suddenly his eyes opened, and a storage bag appeared in his right hand, and a glowing jade slip appeared in his hand.

“The auction is about to start.” He looked forward with anticipation, and hurried out of the yard, and ran down the mountain. Along the way, he saw many outer disciples, and there were long rainbows whizzing past in the sky.

Bai Xiaochun patted his forehead, remembering that he could also fly, so he quickly made a gesture, and the Golden Crow Sword appeared immediately, stepping on the Golden Crow, he turned into a golden light, soared into the sky, and flew away quickly.

Soon after arriving in Fangshi, he held his head high, raised his head, and walked into the auction hall.

The auction pavilion is huge, with thousands of seats in the hall, and even a large area behind. Although there are no seats, it is still crowded with people. As for Bai Xiaochun, almost as soon as he entered, he was immediately picked up by Sun Chen who was waiting there. After walking to the second floor and entering a separate room, Sun Chen left.

This room is not big, the opposite is hollow, there is a balcony, and the hall is below, and the auction platform can be clearly seen.

This was the first time Bai Xiaochun encountered such a lively scene. He didn’t stay in the room like other foundation cultivators, but exposed half of his body on the verandah, afraid that no one would recognize him, and kept coughing.

Gradually, some people in the crowd below saw Bai Xiaochun, they all looked strange, and looked away one after another.

It’s just that there are too many people here, even if Bai Xiaochun coughed again, it wouldn’t spread too far. He saw Hou Xiaomei, Zhou Xinqi and others from a distance, but the distance was too far, so he didn’t pay attention to him.

Bai Xiaochun yelled for a long time, but finally became depressed and lost interest. After all, half of his body was stretched out, and it was quite tiring, especially because he was worried that if he accidentally fell down, countless people on the South Bank would know about it before the next day.

It didn’t take long, and more and more people came here. Half an hour later, a clear sound of a tripod echoed, and the surrounding gradually became quiet. At this moment, countless eyes were all focused on the auction stage.

a blue shirtThe middle-aged man came out with a smile on his face, stood there and cupped his fists around.

“I am writing the Song of Qian. There must be many fellow Taoists who know Qian. This time the auction will be presided over by Qian. The rules remain the same, and the highest bidder wins.” He spoke simply. After speaking, he raised his right hand and immediately auctioned off In an instant, a door of light appeared.

A young woman came out, holding a tray in her hand, on which was placed an irregular stone composed of countless iron blocks.

Flickering in the light, it refracted colorful awns. Thousands of people around looked at it, their eyes lit up, and some of them showed surprise.

Bai Xiaochun also looked carefully, but didn’t recognize what it was, but looking at the expressions of those surprised people, it seemed that it was something very special.

“The first auction item is gold and fine iron. The low price is three hundred spirit stones, and the price is no less than fifty spirit stones each time.” Qian Song spoke slightly, and his foundation-building cultivation pushed his voice to spread everywhere.

“Three hundred and fifty spirit stones” soon, someone spoke.

“Four hundred” was almost at the same time as the first price appeared, there was a bid immediately, and the price was quickly called up to seven hundred spirit stones, which was bought by an inner disciple of Ziding Mountain.

Bai Xiaochun opened his eyes wide. He looked at the piece of iron, wondering why it was worth seven hundred spirit stones. At the same time, he also discovered that after the auction started, there seemed to be a formation here that could let the person who paid the price , his voice expanded quite a bit.

“It’s just a broken piece of iron.” Bai Xiaochun was a little sour, sitting on the sidelines and watching.

Soon, one piece of auctioned items were bought one after another, especially a piece of green horn, which seemed to have been struck by thunder, and it seemed that a faint arc of lightning could be seen faintly on it. This item was sold directly for eight Bai Xiaochun’s heart skipped a beat when he saw the price of Thousand Spirit Stones.

After more than half an hour of the auction, Qian Song’s voice echoed.

“What’s being auctioned now is a bottle of Tier 2 elixir, Ziqi Shengling Pill, ten pills in total, the quality is infinitely close to middle-grade, the impurities are controlled within 81%, the low price is 100 spirit stones, and the asking price is no less than Ten spirits.”

Hearing this, Bai Xiaochun was immediately refreshed, and hurriedly looked at it eagerly, worrying about gains and losses, wishing that everyone would ask for a price.

But for some reason, there was some silence around, Bai Xiaochun’s heart skipped a beat, and after waiting for a while, someone made an offer.

“One hundred and ten spirit stones.” The one who offered the price was an outer disciple, which was almost all of his savings. Now that he finished speaking, he looked around nervously.

But Bai Xiaochun was even more nervous, the cost of this bottle of Purple Qi Ascension Spirit Pill was 50 spirit stones, and if it was sold in the market, it could sell for a hundred and fifty-six.

At this moment, he was crying, a little dumbfounded.

Fortunately, when Qian Song was about to set the board, someone finally offered a price again, and in the end, they pushed the price to one hundred and eighty spirits and ended.

“One hundred and eighty spirit stones is not bad, 20 more than in Fangshi.” Bai Xiaochun breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and comforted himself. In fact, this price is already quite a lot, but it is just different from the previous price. Compared with those precious things in the past, there will inevitably be some gaps.

Soon Bai Xiaochun’s second bottle of elixir was also sold, the price was slightly higher, two hundred spirit stones, which surprised Bai Xiaochun a little.

Until his third bottle of elixir was also auctioned, the atmosphere among the condensing disciples gradually increased, and more and more people made bids. At the end, Bai Xiaochun found out with ecstasy that his second bottle of elixir actually sold for two hundred The price of thirty spirit stones came out.

“There are more than seven hundred spirit stones, as expected of an auction. Enough is enough. These spirit stones are enough for me to refine a third-order elixir.” Bai Xiaochun is a person who is easily satisfied. Yes, but he didn’t take it to heart. He was happy in the room, looking forward to the appearance of his high-quality elixir.

“Based on this calculation, my high-quality elixir should be able to sell for three hundred spirit stones.” Bai Xiaochun hesitated for a moment, a little unsure.

“Two hundred is fine.” He nodded.

Time passed, and under Bai Xiaochun’s waiting, at noon, Qian Song on the auction stage showed some strange expressions for the first time. Looking at the people around him, he let out a dry cough.

“The auction item that Qian will bring up next is very interesting. It is a second-level elixir, which is the same as the purple qi ascending elixir, but it is a little different.”

Bai Xiaochun immediately became nervous, and stood on the balcony nervously, worrying about gains and losses extremely strongly.
