"Don't worry, little uncle!"
Liu Fufeng's eyes were bright and he urged boldly, "Uncle Junior, it's almost dawn, and Junior Sister Caiwei is coming soon. It's time for you to go down the mountain to buy Zhenling Pills!"
Before Lin Yige could speak, he took out another jade slip and said, "By the way, junior uncle, this is the total list of Tingfeng Pavilion's auction items this year. Maybe you need this?"
Every year, Tingfeng Pavilion records the items to be auctioned by each branch and their introductions one by one on the jade slips, stamps them, and sends them to the major cultivation forces.
Lin Yige took the jade slip and glanced at it. As expected, he saw Zhenling Pills in it.
Under the explanation of the effects of Zhenling Pills, the average auction price is also marked as a reference.
Wulu Mountain really hasn't changed in a thousand years, and it still practices the same thing as Tingfeng Pavilion that things are rare and things are valuable.
Even the routine of auctioning three Zhenling Pills a year in every Yunxiu Tower under Tingfeng Pavilion has not changed at all.
Zhenling Pills are extremely beneficial to the cultivation of spiritual consciousness, and can consolidate the soul to prevent it from being taken away. Therefore, major sects have great demand for Zhenling Pills.
Wulu Mountain will send a few bottles to the seven major sects outside Tingfeng Pavilion every year.
For a large sect with thousands of disciples, a handful of bottles of Zhenling Pills can only be used by core disciples, causing a lot of dissatisfaction among the powerful officials of each sect.
Once upon a time, mortals in Nanliangzhou could occasionally obtain soul-returning tree sap in Wulu Mountain, which could be used to treat children suffering from wandering soul syndrome.
After Wulu Mountain and Tingfeng Pavilion colluded and started hoarding, only the inner disciples of Wulu Mountain could obtain Zhenling Pills relatively easily.
Lin Yige still remembered the Wulu Mountain scum he had killed for keeping a medicine man in captivity.
When the man begged for mercy, he said that as long as he was spared once, he would offer a bottle of Wulu Mountain Zhenling Pill with both hands.
A bottle of Zhenling Pills contains twelve pills.
And that scum is just an ordinary inner disciple of Wulu Mountain.
Lin Yige couldn't help feeling regretful. She should have spared him first and waited until he offered the Zhenling Pill before killing him.
But then I thought about it, her previous body and Najie were turned into ashes as the secret realm of Yupan Mountain collapsed, so it was not too early to kill her.
Now that Wulu Mountain allows Tingfeng Pavilion to raise the price of each Zhenling Pill to the current price of ten top-quality spirit stones, it is too outrageous!
However, who said that the soul-returning tree is unique to Wulu Mountain?
Even if Lin Yige was extremely reluctant, there was no reason to forcefully buy Wulu Mountain's Zhenling Pills by setting a price.
If she really did that, the financial resources of Wulu Mountain and Tingfeng Pavilion would be damaged, and she would never give up with the Guiyi Sect.
The Unification Sect is not in its heyday now.
I have to think of a way to snatch it legitimately...
No, I bought a Zhenling Pill at a reasonable price.
"The rules for entering the Yunxiu Tower under the name Tingfeng Pavilion are still the same as before?"
"The jade slip recorded in the auction is from this year, and it should also be the admission ticket to Yunxiu Tower."
As Liu Fufeng spoke, he remembered that his junior uncle had a temperamental temperament and that he was only in the early stage of foundation building. He couldn't help but suggest: "Young junior uncle can bring one person with you. Why don't you invite elder Gu Xiaoyun to go with you?"
Gu Xiaoyun is one of the three preaching elders who specializes in instructing Guiyi Sword Art. He is also responsible for admonishing and punishing disciples who violate disciplines.
Elder Gu is the most leisurely person on weekdays, and he has the cultivation of late-stage god transformation, so he can protect his junior uncle.
"Gu Xiaoyun?"
Lin Yige instantly remembered the young man who had to perform eighteen maintenance procedures on each of his beloved swords every day.
She quickly waved her hand and refused: "Nothing will happen to me, so there is no need to trouble him."
Liu Fufeng hesitated to speak. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the familiar jade and ice soul hairpin in Lin Yige's bun, and he felt relieved.
With the water jade and ice soul hairpin made by the master himself, he really does not need to worry about the safety of the young uncle.
What's more, Tingfeng Pavilion knew that the Guiyi Sect never participated in the Yunxiu Tower auction, and also knew that the Guiyi Sect was declining day by day, and yet it seemed very abnormal to continue business as usual.
Liu Fufeng had an intuition that Tingfeng Pavilion had bad intentions in sending invitations every year.
He trusts his instincts.
Even though his intuition never worked when he listened to his master's instructions, it often disappeared when he tried to understand the sword's meaning.
"That being the case, my disciple is waiting for my junior uncle's triumphant return!"
Liu Fufeng's thoughts were clearly revealed, and Lin Yige understood immediately.
"Tingfeng Pavilion has always thought of me as a sect. It's hard to refuse such kindness, so naturally I want them to get their wish."
Presumably the other seven sects are like her and don't want to see Wulu Mountain and Tingfeng Pavilion loving each other, right?
The relationship between the nine sects was complicated, and they maintained a delicate balance with tacit understanding. No one took any action to prevent Wulu Mountain and Tingfeng Pavilion from getting closer.
Everyone is waiting for the day when the balance will be broken and they will reap the benefits.
Lin Yige held the jade slip and smiled slightly.
Why waste time?
This lets Tingfeng Pavilion know what "it's easy to invite gods but hard to send them away".
"I'll be back in a few days. If the second senior brother comes out of seclusion, please send me a message immediately."
When Liu Fufeng responded, Lin Yige went down the mountain before the morning class.
…
Lin Yige planned to go to Yunxiu Tower in Shangluo County, Yuzhou.
Coincidentally, according to the time recorded on the jade slip, the Yunxiu Tower in Shangluo County will hold an auction in three days.
Among them are three Zhenling Pills.
According to Yunxiu Tower's practice, there will also be unknown lots that are not in the catalog.
Many monks come to Yunxiu Tower for the unknown items that will only be revealed during the auction.
Before leaving the mountain gate, Lin Yige took the golden beans and the Huanshou knife and asked Geng Xin to choose.
"Master," Geng Xin transformed into a human form, grabbed the golden bean and stuffed it into his mouth. The other short finger like a tender lotus root pointed at the ring-head knife, his fair face wrinkled into a bun, "Master, throw this away quickly. Lose!"
Looking at Geng Xin who was starting to pick and choose, Lin Yige raised his eyebrows and said, "There are three such knives in total."
Geng Xin recalled the knife he had eaten and stuck out his tongue, "These knives taste so bad, of course I have to throw them away!"
Lin Yige looked at Geng Xin with a smile and said nothing, making her feel guilty.
Geng Xin's purple grape-like eyes blinked and blinked, his aura disappeared instantly, and he added weakly, "...right?"
"No! Didn't I tell you last time that I could exchange it for gold?" Lin Yige put away the ring-shou knife and tapped Geng Xin's head, "Can't you remember what the master said?"
Geng Xin smiled happily, showing his front teeth like grains of rice, "Of course! Of course I remember! You can exchange it for gold, hehe!"
"When we're full, we'll hit the road," Lin Yige pointed to the northwest, "Gengxin, you go in this direction, don't go too fast."
Satisfied, Gengxin turned into a bamboo whip and flew to Yuzhou in the northwest carrying Lin Yige.
Not long after, Lin Yige arrived at the county seat of Shangluo County.
In addition to the county seat, Shangluo County has jurisdiction over ten counties.
Most of the people in the ten counties are ordinary people.
Yunxiu Towers are located in all counties and cities in Kyushu, and are unified into seven-story buildings.
In the entire city of Shangluo County, the only building taller and more spectacular than the county palace is the Xiu Tower of Shangluo County.
It's basically impossible to admit your mistake.
After Lin Yige showed the jade slip at Yunxiu Tower, he was led to the seventh floor on the top of the building.
