"trouble?"
"No!"
Luo Chen shook his head and didn't care.
"This matter is not your fault."
"What the Huo family did was not authentic. Those who participated in the auction have the right to comment."
"You two were not the only ones talking about it at that time."
"On the contrary, it was the foundation-building monk who took action against the junior, seriously..."
Huo Hu!
Luo Chen muttered the name, showing a hint of thought.
If you guessed correctly, he should be the genius from the Huo family’s generation who was sent to the Yan League!
He was only fifty years old, but he successfully built the foundation.
Because the two Nascent Soul Sects were at war, Yan Meng, as a vassal of the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect, also joined the war.
Instead of taking advantage of the opportunity to shine in the war, Huo Hu hurriedly fled back to Taishanfang to deal with family matters.
It is said that even the realm has not been stable.
I don’t know if this person is timid and afraid of trouble, or if he has mastered the essence of Gou Dao.
But judging from how he showed off his power to the weak just now, I’m afraid it’s the former!
After looking at the two people who were asking for forgiveness, Luo Chen sighed.
"But you should be careful when going out."
"What happened this time should be used as a lesson, and we must not do it again in the future."
"Get up!"
Qu Lingjun nodded repeatedly.
Although he was not affected just now, it was because he was standing next to Luo Chen.
Huo Hu's momentum towards Su Xiaolin was not friendly at all.
Su Xiaolin stood up, his face less impetuous due to his promotion to the ninth level of Qi Refining, and became calmer.
He really took this advice to heart.
The next time he commits the crime, Luo Chen may not be able to stand in front of him.
At that time, it might be death!
After experiencing this little episode, a lot of time has passed.
However, the following auction has not yet entered the process.
Luo Chen twitched the corner of his mouth.
It is said that the Huo family has a profound background.
But looking at it so far, he didn't see the underlying truth at all.
Some, it all feels like a nouveau riche.
Planning an auction is so time-consuming.
In the auction hall, the noise was deafening.
There was even a lot of noise inside.
If it weren't for the fact that there were foundation-building cultivators present, the casual cultivators below would have immediately done something because of "what are you looking at?"
Suddenly.
Luo Chen's ears moved, and then he closed his eyes slightly.
"You guys, do you have anything to take pictures later?"
It was Wang Haichao's message.
Nangong Jin: "I'll forget it. I don't have many spiritual stones on hand, so I can just be a spectator."
Li Yixian: "I heard from fellow Yuju Daoist that at this auction, the Huo family got two magic weapons from the Yan League, as well as several top-quality magic weapons. I'm a little tempted."
Wang Haichao: "Magic weapons are not cheap!"
This sentence conveyed a hint of comfort.
Li Yixian said helplessly: "Of course it's not cheap, but it's one moment and another moment. If I have a magic weapon in hand, I can be more confident."
Having said this, Li Yixian asked curiously: "Leader Wang, do you have anything you want to take pictures of?"
"I am bound to get a low-grade magic weapon called the Xuanhuo Sword!"
Wang Haichao's message was unequivocal and unquestionable.
In another box, Li Yixian frowned.
Xuanhuo Sword?
From the name, it sounds like a fire-attribute magic weapon.
But Wang Haichao is obviously good at water-based exercises, so why is he so determined to obtain a fire-based magic weapon?
"Dan Chenzi, what about you?" Wang Haichao asked.
Luo Chen, who had been silent, chuckled and said: "I want a secret technique called "Qingyuan Wonderful Pill Method". I hope that when the time comes, fellow Taoists will not raise the price with me."
"Qingyuan Miraculous Elixir"
This name flows through the hearts of the three major foundation builders.
Nangong Jin asked curiously: "What secret technique is this?"
Li Yixian: "I won't argue with fellow Taoist Luo Chen."
Wang Haichao: "I have no intention of competing for this technique. However, Dan Chenzi, you have to be careful of other local foundation-building monks bidding against you."
Luo Chen smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter, I have a small fortune!"
As soon as these words came out, the three of them were stunned.
yes!
Luo Chen is an alchemist. He will not be short of money if he is short of money.
Instead, you should be more careful while waiting for others.
Dajiang Gang is in the box.
Wang Haichao opened his eyes with a solemn expression.
"Luo Chen is a man of considerable wealth. If it is not necessary later, it is better not to offend him."
"Otherwise, if it affects my bidding for the Xuanhuo Sword, it will be more of a loss than a gain."
While he was thinking.
Min Longyu, who was behind him, looked at the noisy scene in the hall with a look of anticipation on his face.
…
"Fellow Taoists, you have traveled thousands of miles to come and participate in my Huo Family Auction. Thank you very much."
"I, Huo Hu, am an inner disciple of the Yan League. I will be in charge of today's auction!"
The auction finally started without any delay.
It's almost evening.
However, when Huo Hu revealed that he was studying under Yanmeng, the noisy scene became much quieter.
After all, it is the Golden Elixir Sect, which still has a certain deterrent effect.
However, Huo Hu's auction level is a matter of opinion.
Anyway, Luo Chen was on top, looking rather frowning.
Some conventional resources were priced too high and caused a cold start at the beginning.
This is really clumsy.
Whether compared with Luo Tianhong from the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect or Tian Xingzi from the Zhenlong Black Market, they are not even close to each other.
Moreover, Huo Hu is not very good at raising prices.
A treasure that could have been sold at a higher price, in his words, did not hide its shortcomings...
"No, why should I worry about him?"
Luo Chen couldn't help but purse his lips, he was afraid that he would laugh out loud.
Huo Hu's poor auction skills can give him an advantage, right?
"The next thing to be auctioned is a second-level secret book called "Qingyuan Miaodan Technique"."
"The effect of this technique is very unique. It can resolve the sequelae of erysipelas caused by overdose of elixirs. Moreover, it also has a certain effect on resolving poisons."
"The only drawback is that it takes a long time to practice this technique."
"The starting price is three thousand spirit stones, and each increase must not be less than one hundred!"
Luo Chen's eyes lit up when he heard Huo Hu's voice.
The three foundation builders from Dahefang also tacitly paid attention to him.
But at the first moment, Luo Chen did not bid.
He is waiting!
"Three thousand one hundred spiritual stones!"
Soon, someone called for a price.
There's more than one person.
"Three thousand two!"
"Three thousand three!"
"Three thousand and four!"
…
The bidding sounds kept coming one after another.
Each price increase is modest, but there seems to be no sign of stopping.
Luo Chen's original hope of taking the photo at a low price was quickly given up.
as expected!
Because casual cultivators excessively pursue the speed of practice, they often choose to swallow pills without restraint.
When you reach a high level, you will discover the sequelae caused by excessive swallowing of pills.
At this time, for the sake of the great road, there will always be people who are willing to spend money to buy one or two detoxification methods.
Although, the disadvantages can be huge!
The bidding continues.
Soon, there were four thousand.
This price is already extremely high for cheats that are not majoring in martial arts or offensive and defensive spells.
Dahefang Sanzhuji, who had been paying attention to this scene, couldn't help being surprised.
In the Li family box.
Li Ao couldn't help but said: "If you learn the method of transforming poison, wouldn't you be able to use pills to speed up your practice?"
"Auntie, why don't we buy it too!"
Li Yixian shook his head, "It can't be that simple. Haven't you heard from the foundation-building cultivators that this method is very time-consuming? You Qi-refining period cultivators, what you lack most is time, how can you waste it on a skill that has nothing to do with it? The secret of power."
This is true.
Trying to save time and speed up your practice will end up wasting a lot of time.
Contradictory things only add to the trouble.
Seeing Li Ao come to his senses, Li Yixian said again:
"and!"
"This is Fellow Taoist Luo Chen. I need to name something. It's best not to fight with him."
Li Ao looked at Luo Tianhui's box curiously.
"But he hasn't made a bid yet?"
Li Yixian was also a little confused.
After thinking for a while, he hesitated and said: "Perhaps he wants to make the final decision!"
Such a discussion was also held at Nangong's house.
But Nangong Jin’s response was.
"Don't participate in any bidding, prepare spiritual stones, and take photos of what we need most!"
…
Did Luo Chen want to have the final say?
Consider this!
But his most important thing is to observe the strength of the bidders.
"Every time the price is increased, it rarely exceeds the range of 500 spiritual stones."
"Sure enough, people who need the method of detoxifying are the ones who often take pills. If such a being doesn't have a stable source of money like me, then he will definitely be short on money."
"This way, it will be easier to handle."
Luo Chen does have a small fortune.
After the transaction with Jinshi Pavilion, his total wealth once again returned to 50,000 yuan.
Luo Tianhui also has tens of thousands of spirit stones on his books.
As for a second-level secret skill, there is really no pressure on him.
He was just used to spending every penny on steel blades.
His eyes fell in the direction of a foundation-building cultivator.
In his ears, what came was Huo Hu's annoying sound of pricing.
"Four thousand three hundred spiritual stones at a time!"
"twice……"
"Five thousand dollars!"
A loud voice suddenly came out.
Huo Hu glanced in the direction of Luo Chen.
"Fellow Taoist Box No. 9 offers five thousand spiritual stones. Is there anyone else who wants it?"
There was silence in the venue.
The sudden price increase of 700 yuan showed that the other party did not take this spiritual stone seriously.
The foundation-building true cultivator who had been participating in the fight before was about to get the poison-reducing method.
But I didn't expect that someone would interfere.
He glanced at Box 9 bitterly and hesitated.
He waved to the maid at the door.
"Senior Tu, what are your orders?"
Tu Shan suppressed his anger and asked in a low voice: "Who is in that box?"
The maid was stunned and subconsciously replied: "We can't reveal..."
"I ask you, who is he!"
The maid shivered all over, "They are from Luo Tianhui. The leader is Dan Chenzi, a second-level alchemist."
A second-level alchemist!
Tushan was stunned.
Then he sighed dejectedly.
Such a existence and net worth are by no means comparable to him.
If we continue to fight, we will only bring humiliation to ourselves.
He gave up the bid.
"Five thousand spiritual stones for the second time!"
"Five thousand spiritual stones for the third time!"
"make a deal!"
Without even saying congratulations, Huo Hu waved his hand and asked someone to deliver the things to the person in box nine.
This transaction price made him a little dissatisfied.
"Qingyuan Miaodan Technique" is a second-level secret technique from Qingdan Valley. His senior brother seized it from the corpse of a Qingdan Valley foundation-building true cultivator.
Entrust him with the auction.
As a result, it was sold at this price.
If Luo Chen knew about his mental activities, he would probably scold him.
With your ability, can you still fetch a high price?
You shouldn't brag about this skill. It comes from the Golden Elixir Sect, is suitable for family inheritance, and its shortcomings can be improved.
It can only be said that Huo Hulai really showed his face as the auction host.
The monks in Taishanfang and nearby all remembered him.
But his ability is indeed not suitable for this position.
"Is this the Qingyuan Magic Pill?"
Luo Chen took the jade slip from a Huo family monk. His face showed no excitement, but he was quite curious in his heart.
If he learns this method, he can start practicing at a high speed again.
Ignoring it, the auction was still going on inside the venue.
Luo Chen immediately penetrated his spiritual consciousness into the jade slip.
It's not that he can't wait.
But if there is any problem with this technique, it is better to return it in person.
Break the one-time restriction.
After some inspection, it was confirmed that there was no major problem.
Only then did Luo Chen withdraw from his spiritual consciousness.
At this time, the auction in the venue finally reached a climax from a tepid state!
Because, the magic weapon Xuanhuo Sword has started to be auctioned.
And the price of this magic weapon has been soaring from the beginning.
The price is no more than 10,000 spirit stones.
When Luo Chen noticed, the price had soared to 50,000!
"President, something seems wrong!"
Sima Huiniang looked suspicious.
Luo Chen nodded, he had already noticed something was wrong.
Because the main bidders at the moment are none other than Wang Haichao and Nangong Jin, two foundation-building cultivators from Dahefang!
Wang Haichao had previously stated that he was bound to win.
Although I don’t know why he is so enthusiastic as he is a water major.
But everyone is willing to give him this face.
But Nangong Jin, rushing to the auction like this, something was really wrong.
"This is just a very ordinary low-grade flying sword, and it's still not suitable for either of them."
"Why is the bidding so fierce?"
"This is almost embarrassing!"
Luo Chen looked surprised and uncertain, and his eyes swept over the two boxes one after another.
The best thing happened to the leisurely and comfortable host Huo Hu.
"He is so relaxed, as if he is certain that someone will pay a high price for this magic weapon?"
Fifty-three thousand!
Fifty-four thousand!
Fifty-seven thousand!
Prices are still rising.
For a low-grade magic weapon that is not very surprising, the price is indeed much too much.
His true value should be around thirty to forty thousand.
Suddenly, a familiar natural female voice came to my ears.
"Friend Luo Chen, something is wrong!"
It's Li Yixian.
Luo Chen remained calm and sent a message back: "There's something wrong. The value of this thing seems not to be high."
"Is it related to the quota to stay in Taishanfang?"
Luo Chen's expression was shocked, and he replied after a while: "Maybe that's the case!"
Look at the situation on the field.
Luo Chen became more and more sure of Li Yixian's guess.
The Huo family held the auction to highlight their status as the masters of Mount Tai.
Under such circumstances, this auction will definitely not end well.
If nothing else, at least a few priceless treasures must be auctioned off.
In this way, people will talk about it and continue to spread the word.
It may be a bit difficult for the Huo family to come up with really good things, or they may be reluctant to part with them.
That being the case, why not get a "bargain"?
And now, there happen to be a few culprits for them to kill!
If you want to enter Taishanfang, you must give some indication no matter what.
In other words, it is "voting certificate"!
Kang Dongyue also reminded him to "behave well" at the auction.
Sure enough, Luo Chen looked at Huo Hu. The man's eyes frequently fell on the two boxes of Luo Tianhui and Li's that had not made any bids.
"Are you waiting for us to bid too?"
Luo Chen thought this way.
Li Yixian's worried voice reached his ears.
"Fellow Daoist Luo Chen, do you want to bid?"
Thanks to Dark Night Star Morning for the reward of 3,500 starting coins, and thanks to book friend 20210301105262053256 for the reward of 500 starting coins.
Thank you Wuyouke for your continued support!
