The Fierce Taoist of Online Games
Chapter 525: auctions
"There are still five days before the agreed date, and there will be an auction tomorrow. Let's join in the fun." Zhai Xingchen rubbed his hands and said thiefly.
"Auction?" Zhou Xing asked with a look of surprise.
Zhai Xingchen rolled his eyes and explained helplessly: "The Xuanzhen Continent is so big, there are countless rare and exotic treasures, but for practitioners, useless things are useless no matter how valuable they are, so they can be sold or sold. The demand for exchange, auctions were born naturally. The auctions on Tsukiko Island are held twice a year, and each held only lasts three days. It is famous for its rich items and very popular! It would be a shame not to go to see the excitement ."
"Are you going to watch the excitement or do it?" Zhou Xing blinked and asked.
"Hey hey, it's still a brother who knows me. It can come for nothing, why spend money, right?" Zhai Xingchen smirked. "However, it may not be able to succeed. There are many high-ranking monks sitting there, at least Yuan Yuan. Infant environment."
Zhou Xing shook his head helplessly.
Early the next morning, Zhai Xingchen disappeared. Zhou Xing smiled heartily. He asked about the location of the auction venue yesterday, so he went alone, not buying anything, mainly watching the excitement.
The auction venue is huge and can accommodate a thousand people at the same time, but the number of monks waiting to enter the venue has already exceeded this number. Zhou Xing wanted to enter, but was told that he would need to pay 100 middle-grade aura pills as an entry fee, or Consignment items with a value of not less than 3,000 Reiki Pills are not allowed in.
Zhou Xing was instantly dumbfounded, and he was going to pay a hundred for just looking at the excitement. He stood at the door hesitant. Many monks who thought the same way as him were blocked from outside the venue.
Soon, the guard at the gate issued a notice that the number of monks entering the venue exceeded 800, and there were less than 200 positions left. The entry fee was adjusted to 200, and the value of consignment items increased to not less than 5000.
When Zhou Xing heard this, he was so angry that he almost cursed, and the words came to his lips, suddenly remembering Zhai Xingchen's instructions, and swallowed back.
There were still a lot of monks who asked to enter. Zhou Xing had a hunch that hesitated any longer, and the admission fee would have to rise, so he gritted his teeth and paid the money to enter. He regretted that he had not made a decisive decision just now and threw away a hundred for nothing.
Zhou Xing walked into the venue angrily, and then saw a female cultivator greet him and said softly: "This fairy friend, do you need a higher position? The higher position is good for observation. Goods and bad things are also a symbol of identity and status."
The lady has a nice face and a sweet voice. She laughs very charmingly, and her voice is full of temptation.
"Is there any difference?" Zhou Xing asked awkwardly.
The female Xiu Jiao smiled, her big watery eyes flickered, and she said in a soft voice, "Of course there is a difference. You need to add five hundred for sitting in the first five rows, and three hundred for rows six to ten. One hundred for rows from eleven to twenty, no extra money for rows after twenty. Brother, where should you sit?"
"I... add five hundred!" Zhou Xing hesitated and made a decision.
When he was sitting in the fourth row in front, he was suddenly full of spirits, and his head suddenly became sober.
"This mud horse is a routine!" Zhou Xing felt depressed after realizing it.
A young monk sitting next to him still had a wretched smile on his face. Zhou Xing suddenly remembered that the master once said that some female monks specialize in charm, and male monks who are not deep in cultivation are very easy to be recruited.
Zhou Xing blushed instantly, feeling that sitting here is simply the greatest irony, but when the money was spent, he could only admit that he was unlucky.
After about a stick of incense, an old man in a green robe walked to the front desk, and the venue suddenly became quiet. The old man cleared his throat and said in a deep voice: "The old man Zheng Se, the host of this auction, is responsible for introducing the lot to you fairy friends. Today there are 36 pieces in the lot, which are divided into medicines, exercises, and treasures. There are a total of five categories, and each increase is not less than 1,000 middle-grade Reiki Pills. Okay, don’t delay everyone’s time, the auction starts now. The first lot, the top-grade Lingbao, the diamond ring, this treasure can be big or small, offensive and defensive Both, there are three kinds of control methods, many changes, can be advanced to the magic weapon, the starting price is five thousand!"
"Six thousand!"
"Seven thousand!"
"Seven thousand two!"
...
As the bidding took turns, the atmosphere in the venue was set off, and everyone's face showed brilliance.
Seeing a good thing being photographed away, Zhou Xing was also a little nervous, so he slowly changed his mind. If he met something really needed, he decided to participate in the auction too. So, he checked his family's property, there were only 20,000 Reiki Pills, and he seemed ashamed in such a place, and he might not be able to photograph anything.
"The twenty-sixth lot is a high-level top-level exercise book called "Secrets of Puppet Making", which contains almost all the secrets of making and manipulating puppets. If it can be used with the Soul Devourer, the effect will be even greater. Outstanding! The starting price is five thousand aura pills, start bidding!"
"Seven thousand!"
"Nine thousand!"
"Thirteen thousand!"
...
People's emotions were ignited again, and the venue became lively again, and the prices were one after another.
When the old man reported the title of the lot, Zhou Xing's eyes widened. A stupid and big man made him deeply appreciate the power of the puppet, and at this moment, there was a bite lying quietly in his Heiner ring. The soul orb is a trophy obtained from the golden core monk of the Great Sword Sect. I did not expect to encounter a practice book that can be used with it here.
This book, Zhou Xing is bound to win!
"Twenty thousand!" He immediately shouted out his offer, and then was overwhelmed by the sound of the quote behind.
"Twenty-five thousand five!"
"Twenty thousand eight!"
"forty thousand!"
...
In the end, "The Secret Technique of Puppet Making" was auctioned away by a Jindan monk at a high price of 68,000.
Zhou Xing sat on the chair blankly, not crying or laughing.
When all thirty-six items were photographed, it was almost dark. After the game was over, Zhou Xing returned to where he stayed, but Zhai Xingchen had not yet returned.
Zhou Xing was a little worried. For fear of an accident, Zhai Xingchen still didn't come back after waiting another hour in anxiety. He couldn't sit still anymore, walking around the house, not knowing where to find him.
Just as he was about to return to the auction room, Zhai Xingchen finally showed up and threw him a book as soon as he entered the door. Zhou Xing looked down and found that it was the "Secret Technique of Puppet Making"!
"Brother, you... why is this book here with you?" Zhou Xing was taken aback.
"Hey, of course I took it. After sitting there for so long, you bid a price for this book, indicating that you really need it, so I took it back." Zhai Xingchen said with a smile.
Zhou Xing frowned slightly and said, "This...Is this okay? I bought it for sixty-eight thousand dollars."
"Your boy deserves to belong to Tian Yuanzong, and his style is upright, but the result is, where is Yuanzong today?" Zhai Xingchen sneered.
