Mu Sheng and Hua Zilan entered the courtyard and found a seat and sat down. They were both silent, waiting for the internal auction to start. The host this time was not a young man like Niu Sanbei. The little guy in the Snake Sect was replaced by a man with a Heavenly Master level cultivation.
The host in the venue also wore a mask, so his appearance could not be seen clearly, but the mask style was different from that of the guests. After all, it was an underground trade fair, with the swords of the four major sects of the Central Plains hanging on his head. Neither the buyer nor the seller wanted to let outsiders Become aware of your true identity.
I saw the host walking into the courtyard, bowing slightly to the eight distinguished guests present:
"Dear guests, this Green Snake Sect auction is also guaranteed by the ancestor-level monks. You can buy with confidence. This magic weapon display is also demonstrated by me personally for all the immortal masters."
After saying this, the host clapped his hands, and a maid carefully carried a long wooden box into the courtyard.
The host played a few tricks, and after a few operations, he opened the wooden box. It turned out that this wooden box looked ordinary on the surface, but was actually a low-level magic weapon, specially used to store magic weapons.
The host took out a strange sword-shaped weapon from the box. After everyone's eyes were attracted to this magic weapon, the host held the magic weapon in his hand and preached to everyone:
"This magic weapon is a powerful weapon in ancient times. According to the investigation of the Green Snake Sect, the name of this sword is unknown, but the sect has almost mastered it using the mind method. This sword is made of red fire meteorite iron. The sword It is three feet and nine inches long and has a net weight of eight pounds and four taels. It is a fire-attributed magic weapon. Since it is an auction item, it cannot be identified and activated by its owner, so I can only demonstrate some of its functions to you. Fellow Taoists, please keep an eye on it."
When Mu Sheng heard this, his heart moved. Looking at the introduction of this magic weapon, he knew that it was an unearthed artifact.
I saw the monk injecting spiritual power, and the alien weapon immediately turned into a crimson weapon. He urged his hand skills to slash towards the void. Several crimson sword energy penetrated the puppet in the courtyard, and waved his hand again. A few slashes actually spurred several fire beasts to fly towards the puppet man and directly exploded the puppet man into pieces. Suddenly, sparks flew everywhere in the yard and fire snakes flew.
Mu Sheng was dumbfounded by the effect of this magic weapon. This is only part of the function of the magic weapon. Unfortunately, his cultivation level is low. Even the animal tooth magic weapon given to him by his master can only activate a little function. I am so envious. When will it really work? Traveling to the end of the world with a sword?
Although Mu Sheng is particularly excited about this magic weapon, it doesn't quite fit his Five Elements. Mu Sheng's Five Elements Metal Element can only exert its power with a metal magic weapon. This magic weapon can be divided into high-grade and low-grade, but the magic weapon Different, a magic weapon is a magic weapon, there is no distinction between superior and inferior, only whether the five elements are suitable or not. It is difficult to find a magic weapon that matches your five elements.
As long as a monk encounters a suitable magic weapon, a three-point strength can give a seven-point advantage. This is why the monk world is eager for magic weapons, and sometimes it depends on the appearance to find a suitable one.
If there is really no suitable one, you can only find a professional weapon refining sect to create an exclusive magic weapon. You have to search all over the world for the natural materials and earthly treasures to create the magic weapon. They are only responsible for producing craftsmanship, and the craftsmanship fee is extremely expensive. It is the high-end customization service of magic weapons in the monk world. The price is prohibitive. Sometimes it is better to buy ready-made.
The animal tooth magic weapon given to Mu Sheng by his master Li Wen was a high-end custom-made one. The Jade Zhen Sect was not good at refining weapons, so the magic weapon had to be customized by professionals.
At this time, the host sheathed his sword and stood upright in the courtyard, cupping his fists and saying to the onlookers:
"Everyone can see it clearly. If necessary, you can bid. The starting price for this treasure is fifty thousand gold."
At this time, several people in the courtyard were whispering to each other. One of them, a slender monk wearing a mask and a cloak, opened his mouth and shouted for 100,000 gold. However, the people present were all krypton gold bosses, and they also knew about magic weapons. Things are hard to come by, and the final transaction price must be between 150,000 gold and 200,000 gold. Prices have also begun to increase one after another.
Mu Sheng thought about it for a long time, should he put it in the basket? After all, this magic weapon is definitely not particularly suitable for him. After thinking about it, I decided to take it!
In fact, he can also use it. Mu Sheng himself is a Xuanling Taoist. As for whether the five elements are in harmony, it is not as important as other monks. In the future, he will reach the Heavenly Master realm, which is equivalent to all the spells plus critical strikes. What kind of magic weapon should he use? Both can exert very good power.
Mu Sheng also started to bid accordingly, until the price of this treasure was increased to 180,000 gold, which was equivalent to 18 million yuan. He hesitated a little. After all, how can you not spend so wildly if you have money? When you are a kryptonian, you still have to be calm.
At this time, there were only two monks left in the field who were still raising the price, which was basically an increase of one thousand and one thousand gold on the basis of 180,000 gold.
Some monks did not bid from the beginning to the end. It seems that they must have the same idea as Mu Sheng. This magic weapon is not very consistent with their five elements attributes. Until now, they have just stood aside and watched the show.
At this time, Mu Sheng subconsciously looked back at Hua Zilan and stared at her for a long time. Hua Zilan also felt something and looked back at Mu Sheng doubtfully.
Mu Sheng clapped his hands, right? Isn't she the body of the fire spirit? This magic weapon suits her very well.
Seeing that she didn't bid from the beginning to the end, it should be beyond his ability to bear. Mu Sheng lowered his head and thought for a long time. He didn't need it for the time being, but strengthening the strength of his personal bodyguard was equivalent to strengthening himself.
Mu Sheng raised his hand and shouted, "Two hundred thousand gold."
Everyone was staring at him.
Mu Sheng has spent all his money this time, let's see if you guys will increase the starting price.
Sure enough, the price reached this point, and no one in the venue raised the price for a long time, until the host began to count down three times, and this magic weapon was about to go to Mu Sheng's family.
At this time, Hua Zilan became anxious and secretly told Mu Sheng, "Sir, this magic weapon is not in line with your Five Elements. There is no need to be like this. This is just a small auction, so there is no need to be like this..."
Mu Sheng stared at Hua Zilan through the mask and said, "But you can use this magic weapon, right?"
Hua Zilan was at a loss for words for a while, and then said after a while: "Master, I understand your kindness, but you will not be rewarded for your efforts. I really can't afford such a valuable treasure..."
Mu Sheng smiled and said like an unscrupulous boss, "Who said you got it in vain? It will be deducted from your bonus salary, oh! By the way, from now on, your monthly salary will be increased to 500 gold, and every month from Two hundred gold will be withdrawn from the account as salary, and the remaining three hundred will be used to repay the loan, do you understand?"
Hua Zilan also understood that this was to give her the magic weapon in disguise, just to make her feel better and not put too much psychological pressure on her.
After hearing this, Hua Zilan hesitated for a while and said, "It's Young Master. I understand, but Young Master, you saved me, and I haven't repaid you for this life-saving grace..."
Mu Sheng smiled evilly and said to Hua Zilan, "Don't worry, if you follow me, I won't treat you badly. It's not like I raised you in vain. You still have to do things for me."
Hua Zilan was somewhat grateful when she heard this and said, "Master, my subordinates will be extremely loyal to you."
Spending 200,000 gold to obtain the services of a Heavenly Master Realm monk is quite worthwhile.
At this time, the slender monk who first raised the price hesitated for a while, then increased the price by 210,000 gold, and bowed to Mu Sheng and said, "Fellow Taoist, I am a monk of Lingxuan Sect, this treasure is very important to me. , can you give it to me? I will be grateful after I get the treasure."
People from Lingxuan Sect? When did people from the four major sects secretly participate in the Green Snake Sect's underground auction? Mu Sheng came to his senses, wasn't he also a direct disciple of Yuzhen Sect? Big brother, let alone second brother...
Although the slender monk's tone was polite, in reality he was using his power to overwhelm others.
After hearing this, Mu Sheng didn't want to argue with him, and politely responded to him, "I am determined to get this treasure. I'm sorry, fellow Taoist."
Mu Sheng then raised the price to 220,000 gold.
The mysterious monk snorted coldly and said: "Okay! Very good! My fellow Taoist has a low cultivation level. Even if you take this treasure, it will be of no use. Why bother? As a human being, you should weigh your own weight and don't go against our Lingxuan Sect. For good!"
Hearing this, Mu Sheng sneered, took out a wooden sign from his arms and said in a strange tone to him, "Ouch! I'm so scared? Are you from the Lingxuan Sect of the four major sects? Haha! I am an inner disciple of the Yuzhen Sect. , you see clearly, although I don’t need it, I just want to buy it, what can you do to me? If you have the ability, just pay for it. If you don’t accept it, you can come to Yuzhen Sect to argue with me?”
Mu Sheng clearly saw the mysterious monk's robe trembling slightly. Although he couldn't see his face, he was probably angry.
After a while, the man calmed down his excitement before bowing politely to Mu Sheng:
"It turns out that fellow Taoists of the Yuzhen Sect are ignorant of Mount Tai and have offended me a lot. Let me give this treasure to my fellow Taoists."
After saying this, he stopped saying anything.
Mu Sheng also bowed his hand and said in return, "It's easy to say, easy to say. Since my Taoist friend is willing to part with me, I will be disrespectful to him."
When the people watching the theater heard that Mu Sheng revealed that his family belonged to the Yuzhen Sect, they couldn't help but whisper. Maybe it meant that an auction in such a small place actually revealed people from the four major sects? OK, very OK...
The host was a little surprised when he heard this, and quickly counted three times, and with the final word, the huge sum of 220,000 yuan flew away. Counting the 30,000 yuan deposit, Mu Sheng actually only had to hand over the huge sum of 190,000 yuan. .
After the auction, the men from the Green Snake Sect took the magic weapon and followed Mu Sheng and Hua Zilan to the inn where he was staying.
Mu Sheng ordered the guards to pull out the cart containing the money and said to the host:
"Fellow Taoist, this is all the money I have. Please count it."
The host waved to the back, and the people from the Green Snake Gate came forward to lift the cash box from the car and started counting the money. After a while, the host of the Green Snake Gate nodded to the host, indicating that the money was enough.
The host turned around and took the treasure, handed it to Mu Sheng personally and said, "The money and goods are cleared. Please ask two fellow Taoists to inspect the treasure."
After Mu Sheng took the box and opened it, he checked it carefully again and again. He saw that the strange sword-shaped magic weapon was lying quietly in the box, waiting for its owner.
Mu Sheng cupped his hands and said, "There is no problem with the treasure. Fellow Taoist, thank you for taking the trouble."
The host warned, "Fellow Taoist, please identify the owner as soon as possible after obtaining the treasure to avoid accidents. Once you leave Pingyang City, our Green Snake Sect will not be able to guarantee it."
Mu Sheng knew what he meant, that he was afraid that someone would kill someone and seize the treasure after leaving the city. Even if there were masks and cloaks to protect him, the Taoist sect had many tricks, and no one could guarantee everything.
Mu Sheng said gratefully, "Thank you fellow Taoist for reminding me."
The host exchanged greetings with him and turned back.
At this time, a Green Snake Sect disciple came forward to take away the signs belonging to Mu Sheng and Hua Zilan.
Mu Sheng probably upgraded his VIP membership, and sure enough, the disciple held a plate and covered it with a red cloth and solemnly handed it to the two of them.
Mu Sheng and Hua Zilan looked at each other, then lifted the red cloth and saw two small plaques made of pure gold.
Good guy finally got a gold membership, it’s not easy! Two hundred and twenty thousand gold, a total of 22 million yuan, completely wiped out Mu Sheng's family fortune...
After the people from the Green Snake Sect retreated, Mu Sheng went straight to the inner room with the brocade box containing the magic weapon. He called Hua Zilan over and said, "Feng Jiu, I will protect you. Can you recognize me as your master now?"
Hua Zilan opened the brocade box with trembling hands and looked at the coveted magic weapon. She turned her head and stared at Mu Sheng with burning eyes, confirming, "Master, are you really going to give this to me?"
Mu Sheng showed a profiteer's smile and said, "It's true! It really can't be true. You just bought it with a loan from me. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. I'll deduct three hundred gold from you every month. Your You have to work for me for sixty years to repay this money, and I won’t charge you interest on my interest-free loan. Where can you find such a good boss like me? Don’t you think so?”
Hua Zilan suddenly pulled a long face and let out a long oh, and the excitement of getting the magic weapon was reduced by half. Mu Sheng borrowed from later generations of mortgage loans and changed it into a new trick, calling it "Magic Weapon Loan"
Hua Zilanfeng tilted her head and said doubtfully, "Sir, I always feel like I've been tricked by you..."
