As Yao Hongshang said the auction had begun, the entire auction venue suddenly became silent.

For ordinary people, they can't afford this brave drum.

As for large martial arts families or forces, they are not stupid, and the Yuan Jing in their hands was not blown by the strong wind.

From Yao Hongshang's introduction, you can understand that this brave drum is a useless thing.

When the two forces are engaged in a group battle, if this drum of courage is beaten, it will undoubtedly turn the battlefield into a huge meat grinder. This war will not end until the last person of the enemy is killed.

But war itself is for victory, not simply for fighting.

If both the enemy and ourselves are not afraid of death, then there is no meaning except to keep filling it with human lives.

Especially since this thing costs up to three million yuan crystals, it makes sense that no one cares about it now.

"Hey, this thing is not as good as the phoenix dance bracelet we encountered at the auction before."

Looking at the silent auction house, Liang Yuxuan smiled evilly and said: "The phoenix dance bracelet that was auctioned at the beginning can at least be used as a life-saving thing when encountering a strong enemy. This thing is simply to make people die."

Sun Xi lowered his brows and frowned, murmuring: "What do you think the ancient warriors used to do in making this brave drum?"

He Bohong chuckled and said: "Perhaps some guy who likes to watch the excitement deliberately made such a brave drum, and then watched the two sides fighting. Anyway, no matter how many people die, it is none of his business."

"I see, this thing was made in ancient times, and it is a failed work in itself. When it was built, the original intention should be to make the people on one's own side so popular, but after all, the sound of the drum is not only heard by one's own people. The enemy can also hear it, and in this case, the heroic drum seems very useless."

"Yes, that's what I thought too. The person who wanted to build it didn't expect that it would be like this. But after finally building it successfully, and then destroying it, it's inevitable that he would feel reluctant to let go."

Listening to the discussion of the three people, Su Yu frowned slightly as he looked at the heroic drum in the field.

There must be a reason for the creation of each piece of ground weapon.

Perhaps as the three people discussed, the heroic drum itself is to boost the morale of one's own side.

But what I never expected was that the sound of drums was not only heard by people on my side.

In this case, the beating of the brave drum has no meaning, because the enemy and ourselves have once again fallen into the pre-war balance.

But in Su Yu's opinion, this brave drum is not completely useless.

For example, when the enemy and the enemy engage in a battle of horses and horses on the battlefield, the final result is usually that one party chooses to evacuate after discovering that something is wrong.

In this case, the winning side will choose to pursue the victory in order to expand the victory.

If the drum of bravery is suddenly sounded at this time, it will affect the morale of the defeated soldiers, causing them to change their direction and choose to fight the victorious soldiers again.

If you still force yourself to fight when you are already defeated, it is nothing more than the victor constantly expanding the results.

In this case, the role of the brave drum comes into play.

Because it can invisibly affect your mind and then allow you to die calmly, which is exactly what the winner deliberately wants to do.

It can be seen that if this brave drum appears on a large battlefield, the effect it can have is only four words: the icing on the cake.

If the side with the Drum of Valor finds that its own side has secured victory, it can take advantage of the victory and sound the Drum of Valor to force the enemy, which is retreating steadily, to continue fighting with itself.

Of course, if your own defeat is already determined, then you must not think about beating the drum of courage, because doing so will only increase your own losses.

In addition, this slightly useless drum of courage, even the materials used to make it, are extremely rare. If it were bought, dismantled, and then made into various weapons, it would probably be worth two hundred Wan Yuan Jing.

But the best way is of course to keep it.

In peacetime, this thing really doesn't have much effect.

But in times of war, if this thing works well, it will achieve greater results in a war, and its value is no less than a piece of heavenly weapon.

"Do you want to buy it?"

Su Yu couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Three million yuan crystals can buy an ancient earth weapon, and you won't suffer any loss.

The auction house must have understood that it would be difficult to sell this thing when it gave such a low price.

But it is a ground soldier after all, and as the first auction item, it is considered very qualified.

Looking at the silent auction venue, Yao Hongshang's pretty face looked a little embarrassed.

She naturally expected this situation to occur.

Ordinary people can't afford this thing, and real rich people won't spend money to buy such a useless thing.

The Hanyong Drum was commissioned by Yanying, the fifth princess of the Northern Qi Dynasty, to find the auction house and entrust it to be auctioned.

Presumably, she wanted to use this courageous drum to raise more Yuanjing for herself to purchase the Dingyan Pill later.

"This brave drum is an earthly soldier from the ancient times. Everyone must know that the ancient martial arts skills themselves are stronger than the martial arts skills practiced by later generations of warriors."

In order to prevent the atmosphere from getting cold, Yao Hongshang introduced with a smile: "With only three million yuan crystals, you can buy an earth soldier. Looking at the whole world, you can't find anything so cheap."

"If the materials used to make it are used to make other weapons, it is also a good choice."

"Its drum skin is also extremely tough and can be used to make at least ten pieces of close-fitting inner armor."

In the end, Yao Hongshang had no choice but to encourage customers to bid for it, and then dismantle the heroic drum and use the materials to make other weapons.

But the entire auction venue was still very quiet, watching with cold eyes as Yao Hongshang was selling and boasting about herself.

Anyway, no matter how much you hype it, I won’t buy it.

Of course, most people can't afford it.

"Since no one is raising the price for this brave drum"

Just when Yao Hongshang was about to bid this brave face down, a bid suddenly rang out from a private room on the second floor.

"Three million yuan crystals!"

"Wow!"

Hearing someone bidding, the auction venue suddenly burst into an uproar, and everyone turned to look at the person bidding.

No one expected that someone would actually bid for this seemingly useless drum.

The person making the bid was naturally Su Yu's clone. At this moment, the clone had transformed into a middle-aged man with a stern face.

The reason why he chose to take pictures of this heroic drum was not only that he was not short of money, but also the deeper reason was that Su Yu wanted to catch something missing.

If you buy an ancient earth soldier for three million yuan crystals, you won't lose money at all.

In addition, no one knows whether this thing can help them in the future.

If one day, I really meet that mysterious woman, she will run away if she can't fight against me.

Su Yu beat the drum of courage, subtly making the opponent think that he still had the strength to fight.

If you can really get the Tiandao Jade from the other party, then buying this brave drum will definitely be a profitable business.

Yao Hongshang couldn't help but be stunned when she heard someone calling out the price.

She didn't expect that the enemy would actually show up.

"Now the guest officer in Box C No. 7 has asked for three million yuan crystals. Can anyone continue to increase the price?"

Yao Hongshang looked around with a smile on her face and asked loudly.

After a brief silence, the entire auction venue suddenly became extremely lively.

"I really didn't expect that a fool would spend three million yuan crystals to buy this brave drum. Do you think this guy has water in his head?"

"Hehe, don't worry about him. If he can spend three million yuan crystals to bid for this thing, how can he be so poor?"

"After all, it's an earthly soldier. It only costs three million. No matter how you calculate it, you won't lose much."

"Good guy, it's only three million yuan crystals. When I saw you attending the auction just now, you weren't even willing to pay for ten yuan crystals. How did you get the courage to say it was only three million yuan crystals? You are not afraid of strong winds. tongue."

"This brave drum is indeed useless in peacetime, but if it is placed in wartime, it is still very useful."

"Currently, the Northern Qi, the Great Wei, and the Western Three Kingdoms are at a standalone level. They are all working hard to develop. It is estimated that they will not be able to fight each other in the next ten years."

"Can't we fight? All you can see is calm on the surface. Believe it or not, if a strong martial artist appears in any country, then the three kingdoms will be in raging war until the three kingdoms become a dynasty."

Everyone was talking a lot.

Su Yu didn't bother to pay attention to everyone's comments.

For him who owns hundreds of millions of yuan crystals, three million yuan crystals are really just "merely", which is enough to sum it up.

If you can buy an earth soldier with three million yuan crystals, you won't lose anything.

As long as it works once, the three million yuan crystals will be well spent.

At worst, I can use it as a decoration in my house in the future.

Wouldn't it be more honorable to use an earth soldier as a decoration?

"Since no one continues to raise the price, the guest in Box C No. 7 will bid for this heroic drum for three million Yuan Crystal. The bidding for the second lot will now begin!"

After Yao Hongshang finished speaking, a maid walked towards the auction table holding a tray.

As Yao Hongshang took off the brocade handkerchief on the tray, the things under the tray were now displayed in front of everyone.

They were seven pupae, all dark black in color, and about the size of an adult's thumb.

Seeing this pupa, everyone's eyes showed a hint of curiosity. Could this pupa be some kind of monster?

But what use can such a small monster do?

Facing everyone's puzzled looks, Yao Hongshang smiled and introduced: "Let me introduce to you, this second auction item is the pupa of the fragrant butterfly."

"The fragrant butterfly grows in southern Xinjiang. It is not a monster!"

"But everyone should be able to know what it does by hearing its name."

"Yes, that's Xunxiang!"

"The scent-seeking butterfly has an extremely keen sense of smell. The moment it emerges from its cocoon and becomes a butterfly, as long as it smells any scent in the world, it will be able to find the scent within a radius of five hundred miles based on the scent you provide. Target."

"If you want to find someone who also has something personal that the other person left behind, then at the moment the fragrant butterfly emerges from the cocoon, give this personal thing to the fragrant butterfly to smell. As long as the target person is within five Within a hundred miles, the fragrant butterflies can take you to find him."

After hearing Yao Hongshang introduce everything about Xunxiang Die, Su Yu's heart couldn't help but move.

"It's a pity. If I had known that this thing existed in the world, I could have collected the blood of that mysterious woman and then used the scent-seeking butterfly to find her traces."

"But it's only five hundred miles away. It seems impossible to find the other party at this distance."

Su Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It's a pity that he didn't leave any items on the woman's body, and there was no way to use the fragrant butterfly to search for her traces.

Yao Hongshang continued: "Xunxiang Butterfly does not participate in the auction. It is entrusted by a customer from the Great Zhou Dynasty to our company for auction. Each Xunxiang butterfly pupa has a fixed price of 50,000 yuan crystal, and can be sold individually. sell!"

"If there are interested guests, you can purchase the fragrant butterflies in the background after the auction ends."

Everyone couldn't help but shook their heads when they heard the price of 50,000 yuan crystal.

This thing is actually sold for 50,000 yuan crystal. Do you really not regard money as money?

On the contrary, Su Yu in the box couldn't help but feel his heart move.

There is a saying that it is good to be prepared.

This scent-seeking butterfly can still have very good effects if it is at a critical moment.

He planned to spend money to buy two pupae to play with, maybe they would be useful in the future.

After the introduction of the second lot was completed, Yao Hongshang began to indicate the third lot.

A maid walked towards the auction table with a tray in hand.

After Yao Hongshang took off the brocade handkerchief, a martial arts skill fell into everyone's eyes.

She looked around and said with a chuckle: "Let me introduce to you, this third item is a local elementary martial arts Chunyang Fist!"

"Wow!"

When he heard about the earth-level martial arts, the auction venue was once again in an uproar.

Someone actually sells earth-level martial arts?

If this thing is passed on to the heirs, it might not be possible to support a martial arts family.

Just like the eight major martial arts families in the Wei Dynasty, as well as the Xie family that has been exterminated, they all started with a local level of martial arts, and after hundreds of years of development, they became a giant family.

Now someone would actually put up earth-level martial arts for auction, which undoubtedly made everyone extremely shocked.

This local level martial skill was naturally the result of Su Yu learning about it from Mang Kingdom Liang Bo.

For him, this Chunyang Fist is worthless, and practicing it requires spending too many attribute points, so the gain outweighs the loss.

Simply take this opportunity to auction it off.

After Yao Hongshang's lavish introduction (bragging), the auction process began.

"The starting price for this local junior martial art, Chunyang Fist, is five million yuan crystals. Each increase in price must not be less than one hundred thousand yuan crystals. The auction begins now!"

"Five million yuan crystals!"

"Five.11 million yuan crystals!"

"Five, two million yuan crystals!"

"Five.3 million yuan crystals!"

"Five.4 million yuan crystals!"

"Five and a half million yuan crystals!"

"."

The bidding price for this Chunyang Boxing book kept rising until it was bought by a customer in the box on the second floor for 7.8 million.

The fact that Chunyang Fist could fetch such a price was beyond Su Yu's expectation.

But then I thought about it, a martial arts family with a local martial skill can continuously attract Qianlong realm warriors from the world to join it.

Sooner or later the Yuanjing will be spent, but earth-level martial arts are different.

It can be passed down continuously, just like leaving a vein of Yuanjing to future generations that can be exchanged for Yuanjing at any time.

As long as it is not sold, this local martial arts skill may allow the martial arts family to continue to grow until it develops into a martial arts family that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

The various auction items that followed were so diverse that Su Yu couldn't help but sigh with a feeling of feasting his eyes.

Of course, none of these things are of any help to him now. He just acts as a spectator and watches silently.

After dozens of lots were auctioned in succession, the finale of the auction was finally ushered in.

"Next, is the last item in this auction, Dingyan Pill!"

As Yao Hongshang finished speaking, a maid held a tray in her hand and slowly walked towards the auction table.

At this time, all the eyes of the entire auction house fell on the maid, their eyes looking extremely fanatical.

For women, they may not be able to prevent the day when their longevity is cut off, but the day when they can maintain their youthful and beautiful appearance will definitely make them flock to it.

The reason why this auction can attract so many guests to participate in the auction is precisely because of this beauty pill!

When the maid walked onto the auction stage, Yao Hongshang took off the brocade handkerchief covering it, and a transparent jade bottle came into view.

And in the transparent jade bottle, a beautiful elixir filled with colorful light was displayed in front of everyone.

Everyone looked at the Dingyan Pill without blinking, and their breathing became a little faster.

At this moment, the women in each box were looking at the Fixing Pill, with its crystal luster in their eyes, and a look of longing that could not be concealed on their pretty faces.

No one knows whether there will be any Dingyan Pills for sale in the future.

There is even a possibility that the Dingyan Pill in front of you is the only one left in the world.

Whenever possible, they will get this beauty pill at all costs.

Looking at the auction venue that suddenly became extremely quiet, Yao Hongshang chuckled and said, "The pill contained in this jade bottle is the Dingyan Pill!"

"Its effect is to make the user's appearance remain at the moment when they took the pill until their life span is over!"

"If you want to keep your appearance as young and beautiful as ever, you might as well buy this beauty pill!"

"The starting price of this Dingyan Pill is five million yuan crystals. Each time the price is increased, it must not be less than one hundred thousand yuan crystals!"

"Wow!"

Hearing that the auction price was five million yuan crystals, the entire auction venue suddenly burst into an uproar. It seemed that they did not expect that the price of a Dingyan Pill could be compared to that of an earth-level martial arts.

"Oh my God, did I hear it wrong just now? The starting price of this Dingyan Pill is five million yuan crystals?"

"Why don't you go and grab this horse? Five million yuan crystals. I want to see who is willing to spend money to buy this calming pill!"

"These five million yuan crystals are more expensive than the previous Brave Drum."

"Even the nine major martial arts families in the Wei Dynasty would be reluctant to spend money to buy this Dingyan Pill, right? It's just a fifth-grade pill, why is it so expensive?"

"If it can improve one's cultivation, for example, if a warrior in the Fish Leap Realm can enter the Hidden Dragon Realm after taking it, it would be reasonable to buy five million Yuan Crystals, but this thing only has one to strengthen the appearance. The effect is five million yuan crystals, I really can’t think of anyone who can afford it.”

"This Dingyan Pill is a product of ancient times. It is probably something that someone dug up in the tomb of an ancient warrior. Tens of thousands of years have passed, and it is still unknown whether this Dingyan Pill is still effective. "

"Hey, you guessed it wrong. It is said that this Dingyan Pill was refined by a fifth-grade alchemist."

"Refined? How is it possible that the Dingyan Pill that was made tens of thousands of years ago still has the materials to refine it now?"

"Wanbao Tower is located all over the world. It may be very difficult to collect all the materials to refine the Yan Dan, but it does not mean that there is no chance."

"It is said that after taking the Dingyan Pill, the user can still maintain the same appearance as when he took it, even until the day when his longevity is cut off. Does the Dingyan Pill really have such a miraculous ability?"

"I would like to know, is anyone really willing to spend money on this thing?"

"Hey, I heard that the princesses from Northern Qi and Western Zhou came here tens of thousands of miles away. Do you think they can afford it? As long as you have it, they will win it at all costs. It's just a few million yuan crystals. , isn’t it easy?”

At the auction venue, everyone was talking about the Dingyan Pill on the tray.

When everyone's arguments gradually subsided, Yao Hongshang laughed loudly and said: "Now the auction begins!"

"Five million yuan crystals!"

"Five.1 million yuan crystals!"

"Five, two million yuan crystals!"

"Five, three million yuan crystals!"

"Five.4 million yuan crystals!"

"Six million yuan crystals!"

"Six million one hundred thousand yuan crystals!"

"Seven million yuan crystals!"

"."

When Yao Hongshang announced the start of the auction, a steady stream of bids rang out from various boxes on the second floor of the auction venue.

This scene could not help but shocked everyone participating in the auction.

They didn't expect that it turned out that they were too small and underestimated how much women valued their appearance.

In an instant, 10 million Yuan Crystals were poured into this Dingyan Pill, causing everyone's scalps to tingle.

It was just a Fixing Beauty Pill, but its bidding price was not lower than that of a top-grade Earth Soldier!

If 10 million yuan crystals were piled here, how high would it become a mountain?

At this moment, Su Yu in the box couldn't help but secretly gasped. He was surprised that Dingyan Pill would be asked to pay such a sky-high price, and there were as many as four or five bidders.

At present, after the sky-high price of 10 million has been added to Dingyan Dan, many private rooms have ceased operations. The remaining guests in the four or five private rooms continue to go shopping, but the speed is obviously much slower.

Maybe they didn't expect that the price of this beauty pill would reach twice the starting price and continue to rise.

"11.2 million yuan crystals!"

"Twelve and three million yuan crystals!"

"Twelve and four million yuan crystals!"

"Twelve and a half million yuan crystals!"

"."

It wasn't until the bidding reached 13.7 million yuan crystals that the bidding finally ushered in a moment of silence.

However, at this moment, a bidding sound suddenly came from a box that had never participated in the bidding.

"Fifteen million yuan crystals!"

"hiss!"

Hearing that someone suddenly increased the price by 1.3 million yuan crystal, the whole auction house was filled with gasps.

In the box where Su Yu was, the four of them looked at each other in confusion.

There was no need to guess, all four of them knew that it was Wei Lianyi who should have taken action.

This move increased the price by 1.3 million yuan crystal, which undoubtedly shocked everyone present.

For a moment, there was no sound from other boxes.

A fifth-grade beauty-fixing pill was priced at fifteen million yuan crystals, which was undoubtedly a sky-high price.

But for Wei Lianyi, these fifteen million yuan crystals were just like picking up for free, so he didn't feel any distress.

But for the women in other boxes, this sky-high price of fifteen million has made it impossible for them to continue to increase the price.

Just when everyone thought that the Ding Yan Pill would finally be sold for fifteen million, there was another bidding call coming from a box.

"Sixteen million yuan crystals!"

The person bidding was a man.

Yao Hongshang's pretty face was startled.

This bidding sound might seem strange to others, but to her, it was extremely familiar.

Because the person who spoke out was his eldest brother, Yao Hongpu.

"How come he has so much money in his hand?"

Yao Hongshang frowned slightly, and then immediately realized that it was his third brother Yao Hongci who was secretly helping him.

The Yuan Jings these two guys have in their hands may actually amount to 16 million Yuan Jings.

"Seventeen million yuan crystals!"

Wei Lianyi, who just raised the price, raised the price by one million again!

"Eighteen million yuan crystals!"

Yaohongpu continues to increase in price!

Yao Hongci in the box couldn't help but marveled, and then said: "Brother, all the Yuan Jings we have in hand add up to a total of 20 million Yuan Jings. Don't overdo it."

Yao Hongpu looked back at him and said with a determined smile: "Third brother, don't worry about this. I don't believe that 20 million yuan crystals can't win this Dingyan Pill!"

Yao Hongci glanced in the direction of the private room that had raised the price, and then murmured: "It's hard to say."

"Twenty million yuan crystals!"

Wei Lianyi gave the price again.

Hearing the price of 20 million, Yao Hongpu's smile suddenly froze.

He didn't expect that the other party would directly increase the price by two million yuan crystal.

When the price of the Dingyan Pill reached 20 million yuan crystals, the guests in the entire auction venue had already had enough immunity and just watched with cold eyes this auction, which could be called the largest in the history since the founding of the Wei Dynasty.

"Two thousand and one million yuan crystals!"

Yao Hongpu's face looked a little ugly, and he was unwilling to increase the price again.

But the next moment, Wei Lianyi increased the price again.

"Twenty-one million yuan crystals!"

Hearing the price, Yao Hongpu was immediately discouraged.

I thought that having prepared 20 million yuan crystals, this Dingyan Pill would fall into his hands without any suspense.

But I never expected that the other party would be so generous, and each increase in price would not be less than one million yuan crystal.

"Third brother."

Yao Hongpu couldn't help but glance at Yao Hongci who was sitting upright, wanting to see if he could provide more money for support.

Facing Yao Hongpu's look for help, Yao Hong smiled wryly, shook her head, and said, "Brother, we don't need to increase the price anymore."

"Since the second sister has an alchemist who can refine the Ding Yan Dan, as long as we collect enough refining materials, we can refine it again. By then, the normal price of the Ding Yan Dan should be between five million and eight hundred. The range of Wan Yuan Jing.”

"When the time comes, ask the second sister to reserve one for you. She thinks about the relationship between brother and sister, so she can't deny you this little bit of face, right?"

After hearing what Yao Hongci said, Yao Hongpu nodded.

There seems to be no point in continuing to increase prices.

"Since no one continues to increase the price, this Dingyan Pill will be bought by the guest in the No. 2 Box A at the price of 21 million yuan crystals."

When Yao Hongshang announced the final ownership of the anti-aging pill, the much-anticipated auction finally came to an end.

"Dear guests, today's auction is over."

Yao Hongshang looked around and said with a smile: "Anyone who has won a lot at the auction can come to the backstage of the auction house, pay the corresponding Yuan Jing, and take away the item he won."

"thanks for your support"

After Yao Hongshang finished speaking, the people participating in the auction also stood up and walked out.

Everyone's faces were still filled with expressions of unfinished expression.

This auction undoubtedly made everyone deeply aware of the gap between themselves and the rich.

The ten yuan crystals that I need to pay to enter the venue will cost me life and death.

But for these rich people, they can throw away millions of yuan crystals without blinking an eye.

After the auction, Su Yu and the others were walking back. Liang Yuxuan couldn't help but secretly exclaimed: "It's unbelievable that Mr. Wei would spend 21 million yuan crystals to bid for this Dingyan Pill."

Sun Xicui couldn't help but said: "It's so inhumane!"

If you had a vein of Yuanjing behind you, you wouldn't take 20 million Yuanjing seriously.

Su Yu couldn't help but curse in his heart.

The territory of the nine states of Great Wei all belongs to the Wei family. If the Wei family wants it, isn't that just asking for it?

Besides, Wei Lianyi was equivalent to giving out 6 million yuan crystals, and the remaining 15 million yuan crystals were unexpected gains in themselves.

Under this situation, Wei Lianyi spent the money without any psychological burden.

However, Su Yu couldn't help but be shocked that this Ding Yan Dan could fetch a sky-high price of 21 million Yuan Crystal.

Of course, he also knew very well that the Dingyan Pill that was successfully refined would never be sold at such a sky-high price again.

He was probably exhausted, as the price of a Ding Yan Pill would be 10 million Yuan Crystal.

After Su Yu returned to the Zhenwu Division, he arranged for his avatar to pay the full amount of Yuan Jing and took away the heroic drum of soldiers.

What surprised him was that when he asked about the fragrant butterflies, he was unexpectedly informed that all seven fragrant butterfly pupae had been bought by a buyer.

Now that it has been bought, Su Yu has no choice but to give up and see if there is a chance to go to the Western Zhou Dynasty in the future to see if anyone is selling the fragrant butterfly chrysalis.
