It was still early, so there were not many people coming at this time, and there was no need to queue. Lu Li and the two arrived at the gate quickly.
Wan Jingshan saw Lu Li coming and greeted him with a smile, "Brother, you're so early."
"Choose a good seat while there are few people around to avoid being crowded." Lu Li responded with a smile, then glanced at the hall inside, "Can I go in?"
"certainly."
Wan Jingshan nodded and said with a smile, "The venue is on the third floor. Just go up the stairs. I'm still busy, so I won't go up with you."
"Haha, that's not necessary. I'm just busy, brother." After saying that, Lu Li walked in.
Seeing this, Wu De wanted to follow him in, but was stopped by Wan Jingshan, "Fellow Taoist, please show me your storage bag. The rules of the venue are that no one without a hundred thousand spiritual stones is allowed to enter."
"What! Are you looking down on me?" Wu De stared at Wan Jingshan with an unhappy face.
"Fellow Taoist, please forgive me. This is the rule above, not directed at fellow Taoists. Everyone entering the venue needs to have their capital verified." Wan Jingshan explained politely.
"Why didn't you stop that kid just now?"
"Just now? Haha, because that's an old acquaintance of mine."
"Old acquaintance? I've been doing business with you at Wanbao Pavilion countless times. Why don't you get this kind of treatment?"
"You didn't deal in my hands!"
"You are practicing favoritism!"
"Whatever you say, please ask fellow Taoist to show you the spiritual stone..."
"..."
While Wu De and Wan Jingshan were entangled, Lu Li had already followed the stairs to the third floor. The third floor was different from the second floor. Next to the stairs was an arched golden door more than three feet wide.
When I walked to the door and looked in, the first thing I saw was the circular auction stage with a diameter of more than ten feet in the center of the venue. Directly north of the auction stage was connected a closed passage. There were two guards at the exit of the passage on both sides.
Surrounding the auction table are layers of seats distributed upwards in a circular shape, stacked layer by layer from bottom to top, without affecting the sight of those behind at all.
Moreover, each seat is independent, about three feet apart from left to right, and more than ten feet from front to back.
Lu Li walked forward slowly and took a general look. He found that the seats were arranged on nine floors from low to high. Even the bottom floor had fifty seats. The total number of seats on the nine floors was almost enough to accommodate everyone. Nearly a thousand people.
Above the ninth ring seats, there is a protruding circular corridor. There seems to be a room behind the corridor. I don't know if it is a VIP room.
Lu Li took a quick glance and found that there were still some empty seats on the first floor, so he decisively walked towards the seat numbered '135'.
He chose this place for two main reasons. The first is that it is closer to the auction table, making it easier to view the auction items.
Secondly, there is an aisle to the right of this seat. There are no seats set up. If an accident occurs, he can jump to the aisle and escape immediately.
After all, this auction house is closed, so it is better to keep some things in mind.
As soon as Lu Li sat down, Wu De walked in with an annoyed look on his face. After looking around, he came to the seat numbered 136 to Lu Li's left and sat down.
"Old man, what's wrong with you?" Lu Li looked at Wu De in confusion.
"Oh, it's okay, I just met a crazy person..."
Wu De told him roughly what happened outside the door with a depressed look on his face. After hearing this, Lu Li felt dumbfounded, thinking that Wanjing Mountain was really interesting.
While Lu Li and Wu De were joking and chatting, several more people walked in one after another, and almost all of them chose to sit on the first floor without hesitation.
The entrance passage was to the right of where Lu Li was sitting, so when everyone passed by, he secretly used his Sky Eye Technique to observe and found that these people were all foundation building masters without exception.
He couldn't help but feel a little curious. He turned his head to look at Wu De and asked in a low voice, "Old man, are all the people participating in the auction this time a master of foundation building?"
"What do you think? How can ordinary Qi-training monks get the admission qualification of one hundred thousand spiritual stones? Even if there are Qi-training monks, they will probably follow their elders to gain experience."
"Is that so? In such a large venue, wouldn't there be hundreds of foundation-building masters gathered together? Are there so many foundation-building masters in Nebula Country?"
"Nebula Kingdom?"
When Wu De heard this, he immediately looked at Lu Li as if he were an idiot, "You think this is still the Eastern Wasteland, I tell you, not to mention the Nebula Kingdom, even in the western area of Taihua Mansion, there are no less than a thousand foundation-building monks!"
"so much!"
Lu Li couldn't help but feel shocked. There were more than a thousand people in the western part of Taihua Mansion alone. If calculated on average, there must be tens of thousands of foundation-building masters in the entire Nebula Kingdom?
"How many farts! If it were two thousand years ago, not to mention the western part of Taihua Mansion, there would be thousands of permanent residents in Wushuang City. The foundation building period at that time would be no different from ants."
"Two thousand years ago? How do you know!"
"Hey, it says it in the book."
"Well..."
As they talked, both of them shut up, because Lu Li turned his head and looked at the door.
There were three young girls walking in slowly. All men loved to look at them, and Lu Li was not immune to vulgarity. What's more, the three girls were all extremely beautiful, especially the leading girl in aqua blue dress, with a jade-like face. That kind of cold temperament that repels people thousands of miles away...
Lu Li immediately thought of the words 'Ice and Snow Fairy'!
"Is that true?" Lu Li's fingers tapped on the armrest, his eyes slowly moving along with the steps of several people.
Just when Lu Li was looking at it, suddenly, a biting coldness hit Lu Li's face, making Lu Li shiver involuntarily. When he came back to his senses, he saw that the three of them had already arrived beside him.
When the two young girls, one yellow and one young, following him saw Lu Li, they couldn't help but show a strange look. It seemed they had never seen such an elegant and refined young master, which made the two of them blush slightly.
But the girl in the aqua blue gauze dress who was leading gave Lu Li a vicious look, and then led the two of them straight towards the inside. The three of them were Chen Bing and his party who came from Linggu, and they were also Wan Li. The ice and snow fairy that Jingshan said.
It was obvious that Chen Bing did not recognize Lu Li as the man in the black cloak in the mirror.
At this time, Lu Li was not sure that this person was the Snow Fairy.
"Boy Lu, this girl's Forgetfulness Technique has become quite popular, so don't ask for trouble. If you really like women, I think your apprentice is good, and he is obviously interested in you."
Lu Li was stunned, "What are you talking about? I'm a serious person."
"Hehe, who knows, I'm just reminding you not to provoke the people in the Valley of Forgetfulness easily. Those women are not only ruthless, but also always hold grudges. It's better for us casual cultivators to provoke less..."
