[Chapter 1133: The one that can be sensed by the Qiankun Pot must be a treasure]
Yang Yiyun reached an agreement with the restaurant manager and successfully bought four little fox demons.
At this time, the auction of the ten female demon slaves on the stage was also over, and the host opened the third wave of auction items.
“Everyone, this is a ten-thousand-year-old purple gold grass. In addition to the huge spiritual energy contained in it, it also has the power of the soul. It is rare. The starting price is 10,000 medium-grade spiritual stones. Each bid must not be less than 1,000. Now the auction begins.”
As the host finished speaking, the moment the gong sounded, the bidding began.
“11,000 spiritual stones.”
“12,000 spiritual stones.”
“15,000…”
“…”
In less than three minutes, it soared to 38,000 spiritual stones.
Yang Yiyun looked at the purple gold grass of Tai Shang and became interested. He had not seen many spiritual medicines with ten-thousand-year ingredients in the Shanhai Realm. As an alchemist, he would not let go of any superior spiritual medicine, not to mention that it was a rare spiritual medicine that took into account both spiritual energy and soul power. He would fight for it no matter what.
“40,000 spiritual stones.” It was Li Baichi who spoke.
“Forty-five thousand spirit stones.” Huangfu Yunfei also joined in.
After these two families joined in, there were fewer people following them, because everyone knew that the Li family and the Huangfu family were financially strong, and they couldn’t compete, so it was better to give up.
“Forty-eight thousand spirit stones.” Li Baichi called out again.
“Fifty thousand spirit stones.” Huangfu Yunfei spoke.
The competition between the two was just a casual bidding.
At this time, Yang Yiyun’s mouth slightly raised. In his eyes, he was determined to get this purple gold grass, and it was very valuable. He slowly said: “One hundred thousand medium-grade spirit stones.”
Yang asked for one hundred thousand spirit stones, which doubled in an instant, a full fifty thousand.
This made many people in the field gasp, and some even muttered that he was a prodigal.
The purple gold grass is a spiritual medicine of ten thousand years old, and it is indeed valuable, but… In the eyes of many people, it is not worth buying a spiritual medicine with one hundred thousand spirit stones. It is a complete waste of money. With one hundred thousand spirit stones, you can buy very good elixirs.
Spending 100,000 to buy a spiritual medicine, if it is not made into a pill, the efficacy of the medicine will be greatly reduced if it is taken directly, it is meaningless.
It is simply a fool!
Yang Yiyun just smiled at the discussions around him. Only he knew what effect a spiritual medicine with ten thousand ingredients could play in his hands.
Since he decided to bid for this spiritual medicine, Yang Yiyun was determined to win it. After he saw Li Baichi and Huangfu Yunfei start to compete with each other, he knew that he had to strike hard. The competition of one or two thousand spiritual stones will definitely increase to one hundred thousand later. Even if it is less than one hundred thousand, it is not much.
Besides, these two families are wealthy and powerful local tyrants. One hundred thousand spiritual stones are not a lot for them. If they can’t suppress them, they can’t get the purple gold grass. Just shout out a bottom line in your heart, or shock Li Baichi and Huangfu Yunfei at once. If they can’t suppress them, Yang Yiyun will naturally give up.
But he has information.
Bidding also requires psychological tactics. Yang Yiyu is not a spendthrift, but he knows what means are appropriate when facing local tyrants like Li Baichi and Huangfu Yunfei, so he directly bid a high price of 100,000.
Sure enough, after he called out a high price of 100,000, when it was Huangfu Yunfei’s turn to bid, Huangfu Yunfei, who was standing at the window, looked at Yang Yiyu and was stunned for a moment, then smiled, nodded to Yang Yiyu and gave up bidding. After
Huangfu Yunfei gave up, it was Li Baichi’s turn. Li Baichi stared at Yang Yiyu gloomily and did not speak. However, at this time, one of Li Baichi’s subordinates came up and said, “Young Master, that kid doesn’t know how to live or die. He dares to compete with Young Master. I think it’s better for Young Master to bid 120,000 to let that kid know Young Master’s financial strength and retreat when he knows the difficulty.”
“Haha.” Li Baichi turned his head and looked at this subordinate and sneered, then slapped him in the face.
“Pa~”
“Are you a pig? That kid made trouble when we were competing for the elixir, and made me spend tens of thousands of spirit stones more. This time, it is obvious that the kid is deliberately trying to cheat me. Do you think I am stupid?
Huangfu Yunfei has given up, and you want me to bid 120,000. Do you think everyone will laugh at me for not being as good as Huangfu Yunfei? Ah? Idiot, pa pa pa.” After saying that, he slapped three times with his backhand.
“Ah ah ah~” Li Baichi, this subordinate, was miserable. In an instant, his face was beaten into a pig’s head by Li Baichi.
Li Baichi sat back angrily and gave up the bidding. In his mind, Yang Yiyu jumped out again to cheat him deliberately. He would not be fooled. He sneered in his heart: “The kid wants to cheat me with 100,000 spirit stones. Am I really stupid? This time, I will not bid. Let’s see who cheats who?”
In fact, Yang Yiyu thought in his heart that if Li Baichi added even one more spirit stone, he would give up. As a result, when he saw that Li Baichi also gave up, Yang smiled in his heart. He knew that his tactics were successful.
There was no one bidding anymore. After the host asked three times, the purple gold grass belonged to Yang Yiyun and was soon sent to Yang Yiyun’s private room.
As for the settlement, the staff of the Freedom Restaurant came to him to settle after the auction.
The auction continued…
but the things that followed basically did not attract Yang Yiyun’s attention. During this period, Huangfu Yunfei and Li Baichi made several bids, and other cultivators also competed fiercely, each with their own gains. The entire auction lasted for dozens of genius treasures, and a total of one hundred auctions.
During this period, Yang Yiyun sat down peacefully and drank spiritual wine and tea, enjoying the service of the four little fox demons, serving fruits and massaging shoulders, which was very comfortable.
Originally, he thought that there was nothing in the auction that could attract him, so he didn’t pay attention to it and just enjoyed it. Who knew that after the last auction item appeared, the Qiankun pot on Yang Yiyun’s left arm suddenly became hot.
At this moment, Yang Yiyun’s heart moved, and he quickly got up and walked towards the window, looking at the stage.
Anything that can be sensed by the Qiankun Pot is definitely a treasure.
He said he would take it down no matter what .
The host said, “Fellow Taoists, this is the last treasure today. It was provided by a mysterious monk. It is considered a five-star treasure. Because no one can identify what it is, it is classified as a leak detection treasure. If any Taoist present knows the treasure, you will make a fortune. There is no low price for this treasure. It is open for free bidding. The bidding starts now.”
As the host finished speaking, the gong sounded, and a small box was opened. A watermelon-sized stone was taken out from it. The black stone looked inconspicuous, just like an ordinary stone.
However, many people can sense that there is spiritual energy emanating from this black stone with a scan of their spiritual consciousness, but it is only a very weak spiritual energy fluctuation.
Anyway, it is not a spiritual stone, let alone a strange stone. It is just that weak spiritual energy can be sensed from the stone, but that’s all.
Many people in the venue knew the bidding method of Xingchen Restaurant. At the end of each auction, there would be a “leak detection” auction. However, it was just a scam. There was no such thing as a leak detection. It was just a way for the auction to make money.
Someone familiar with the scene laughed and joked: “Host Niu, I want to ask your restaurant to try something new. Every time you hold a leak detection auction, after more than a hundred years, who among all the forces in the millions of lands of the Xingchen Mountains has really seen a leak? Ten years ago, I checked for leaks in refining materials, but it turned out to be smuggled goods, wasting my five thousand spirit stones in vain. I think this method should be cancelled in the future. I won’t be fooled, hahaha.”
“Hahaha~”
As soon as this person said this, many people in the scene laughed, and it seemed that everyone agreed with what he said.
Many people did not think that there could be any real leak detection.
The host on the stage, who was called Niu, was obviously familiar with the person who spoke. He was not angry, and laughed and said, “Old Mu, you are wrong. Leakage detection bidding is a traditional practice of our Xingchen Restaurant auction. Besides, it is not that there has been no leakage detection in history. Didn’t we see a leakage detection in an outside restaurant three hundred years ago?
A Taoist friend only spent ten spirit stones to detect a leak in a star pattern stone, which is worth 100,000 spirit stones. So leakage detection is not necessarily true. What if this black stone is a treasure? Don’t you think so? Okay, let’s start bidding for the last item now. The auction is over. The restaurant has a dance segment of the enchantress, and I, Old Niu, can’t wait to watch it.” After
the host finished speaking, there were laughter in the audience.
Although the host boasted about leakage detection, the crowd was obviously not very interested and didn’t care too much. Many people knew that it was just a means of making money deliberately designed by the restaurant.
Regardless of what the others were thinking, Yang Yiyun’s heart was beating wildly at this moment, because when the black stone was taken out of the box, the heat of the Qiankun pot on his left arm suddenly became stronger and stronger, as if it was on fire.
This shows that this black stone is definitely a treasure. Now Yang Yiyun just prayed that no one would compete with him for it.
Just when he thought of this, a lazy voice sounded: “I will offer a hundred spirit stones.”
Yang Yiyun’s heart skipped a beat, and he looked up and saw that the person who was bidding was Li Baichi. He immediately became a little nervous. Could it be that Li Baichi saw the extraordinaryness of this black stone?
