The orc girl's name is Ling'er, and she is twelve years old.
She was just a little snake when she was born, and it wasn't until she was six years old that she took on a half-human, half-snake form.
Grandma was very worried. Grandma said that Linger could live well either as a snake or as a human.
But this half-human, half-snake figure cannot appear in front of people.
Ling'er's parents took her to the depths of Wanjie Mountain.
Tell her not to let other people or animals know that she has spiritual roots!
The family agreed to wait until Ling'er could practice enough to be able to transform freely before coming out.
Although there are many monsters in the depths of Wanjie Mountain, her father's magic power is powerful and can protect her and her mother-in-law.
One day someone broke into their cave and killed their father. Aniang also exploded Yuan Dan to protect her.
It's a pity that the opponent is too powerful, and Aniang's self-destruction cannot seriously hurt him.
Finally, Ling'er, who had just lost her parents, was brought here.
At this moment, she was sitting on her knees like that, letting the people below the stage and upstairs raise her price higher and higher.
From the time when a group of people started shouting prices, now only the sound of quotations can be heard from time to time from certain rooms upstairs.
The bidding continued, and the auctioneer had a satisfied expression on his face.
Ling'er became more and more frightened. She was not an ignorant child. Her father and mother-in-law had taught her many things.
The price is getting higher and higher, which means that the other party is getting stronger, and the chance of her escaping will naturally be smaller.

Zhou Yan looked at the girl with sympathy, "How come the orcs can be sold at such a high price? I don't know where they will be sold to? How pitiful~"
Bai Qi said, "That female cultivator with a single spiritual root can be sold at a very high price in the Furnace Tower."
Several other people looked back at him, and Bai Qi waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't get me wrong, I heard it from others in the market."
Ji Qingling felt that her heart was really filled with panic, "It must not be just because of her single spiritual root, it must have a lot to do with her identity as an orc."
At this time, the sound of bidding came from the box upstairs again, and Ji Qingling stood up.
"I'm going out first. Meet you at the gate of Zhenbao Pavilion."
She couldn't stop this kind of human trafficking, nor could she just watch it.
So Ji Qingling chose to stay out of sight and stay out of sight.
After leaving the box, she first asked the waiter for directions and took out the exercises she had auctioned.
After leaving the Zhenbao Pavilion, I strolled around the streets.
Because this auction was held very grandly, many monks who did not have admission tickets came to join in the fun.
There were many people on the street. Ji Qingling felt better after eating at a few stalls.
Soon she found the place she was looking for, no matter where she came from!
Entering the store, just like the store in Kunlun, there was no one except a foundation-building monk.
She took out a Xuantian Soul Fusion Fruit and handed it over.
The monk picked it up and took a look, then his eyes lit up and he handed the thing back to Ji Qingling.
"Fellow Taoist, please come in."
Ji Qingling followed him to a small room, which was simply decorated and an old man in the Nascent Soul stage was sitting in it.
The foundation-building monk retreated.
The old man said with a smile, "My dear friend, please sit down."
Maybe the things Ji Qingling sold last time were too common, so he traded them directly in the lobby.
Unexpectedly, he actually entered a single room this time and was greeted by Nascent Soul Taoist Lord.
It seems that the Xuantian Soul Melting Fruit can be sold at a good price.
She sat down opposite the old man and handed the things over.
After the other party carefully identified it, his tone became more friendly, "The Xuantian Soul Melting Fruit that lasts ten thousand years is rare to see."
I didn’t expect that not asking where you come from really means not asking where you come from.
It turned out that Ji Qingling had prepared a story about how he got this thing accidentally.
Who knows, no need, they don’t ask at all.
"Sixty thousand middle-grade spiritual stones."
The price is similar to what Ji Qingling guessed. Ten-thousand-year spiritual grass also appeared in Zhenbao Pavilion just now, and the price is indeed higher than here.
But the commission collected by the auction house is also black.
Although there are fewer spiritual stones, it is faster and more convenient regardless of where they come from.
Seeing that Ji Qingling had no objection to the price, the old man took out a wooden sign.
"With the wooden sign, I can go to any treasure pavilion in Jiuzhou Continent to extract spiritual stones."
…
Relationships are all your family's business, right?
This buying and selling is really fun!
Just as Ji Qingling was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something, "Senior, why are the bids for the single-lingen orcs being auctioned at Zhenbao Pavilion today so high?"
"Is this the wood-type snake demon with a single spiritual root that I'm talking about?"
Why is it a snake demon? Does saying snake monster mean you don't feel guilty about buying and selling children?
"Exactly."
"Not all orcs can practice. Most orcs use the cultivation method of monsters. Their advantage is that they have the same long lifespan as monsters.
But this snake demon has spiritual roots, and it is a single spiritual root. If it can still have the lifespan of a monster~"
The old man didn't finish what he said, but Ji Qingling understood.
She thanked the old man and left the house. The foundation-building monk was waiting outside the door.
He took Ji Qingling to the exit, "These exits are all ordinary alleys. Fellow Taoists can go out with confidence."
Ji Qingling looked around and chose the one closest to her among several passages.
In fact, when she was choosing just now, she asked Amu to find an opportunity to touch the other person's body.
Amu felt that the other party had no ill intentions, so she chose an exit at will.
After all, it was such a large sum of spiritual stones, and it would be very distressing if someone robbed it.
The moment she came out, she put on an invisibility charm just in case.
Fortunately, there was nothing unusual and she returned to Zhenbao Pavilion smoothly.
Before anyone else came out, Ji Qingling took a stroll in the Treasure Pavilion.
If you really want to buy equipment, Zhenbao Pavilion is indeed the right place.
Her coiling dragon arm had been broken before, so the defensive equipment on her body still needed to be replenished.
Life can be saved at critical moments. If the spiritual stone allows, it is best to equip the whole body with various defensive weapons.
With these spiritual stones on his body, Ji Qingling felt somewhat confident.
He said to the waiter: "I want to see the defensive treasure."
"Fellow Taoist, please come with me."
She took Ji Qingling to the second floor.
The person who received her here was a Jindan monk.
Look, this is how you are treated if you have a spiritual stone.
The golden elixir monk asked about her requirements and recommended several products to Ji Qingling that were suitable for her.
One of the low-grade treasures - the walking boots of the gods, contains the spiritual energy of the earth, and the phantom that wears them can move like the wind and the gods without hindrance.
It has an excellent speed-boosting effect on monks and also has a defensive effect.
The reason for recommending it is very simple. Running fast when you can't beat him will also play a life-saving role.
The other item is also a low-grade treasure - the glazed cold jade belt, a belt made of ice jade that has been condensed for a hundred thousand years.
Increased defense during normal battles, and can withstand a blow from the Nascent Soul cultivator when in danger.
It also has the effect of resolving the damage caused by the ice energy, so it is excellent to wear in the northern region.
Ji Qingling wants both!
If she can't defeat her, the walking boots can help her escape. If she catches up, the glazed cold jade belt can help her withstand a fatal blow.
