Chapter 79 Shady story! Absolutely shady!
Chapter 79 Shady story! Absolutely shady!
"The seeds of the water-type mutant Vermilion Fruit have 15 times more spiritual energy than ordinary Vermilion Fruits when they mature. They are quite rare."
"This item is a mid-level spiritual item, it takes 700 years to bloom and bear fruit. It is still in good condition now, having only been born for half a year. Fellow Taoists with sects and schools can pay attention to it, the starting price is spiritual stones."
Mr. Zhang emphasized recommending this item intentionally or unintentionally. At the same time, he looked through the box on the second floor with a slight smile on his face.
Lin Shan touched his head awkwardly. It seemed that Mr. Zhang had already discovered that the fruit core was not heirloom, and he did not point out his original little thought.
At this time, the field was strangely quiet, because the Qi training cultivators were not interested in this thing. Everyone's life span was only a little over a hundred years, who would have two hundred years to wait for it to bloom and bear fruit? If it was a finished spiritual fruit, everyone would be interested.
However, the people in the audience were not interested, but some big shots upstairs did take action.
Mutated spiritual fruits are relatively rare, and for aristocratic sects, they are also strategic resources in the long run, and buying them back can also be reimbursed. Anyway, I'm not buying them for myself, but my descendants can use them.
"700 spirit stones."
"800 spirit stones."
"900."
……
"1000 spiritual stones!"
The price stopped here. After all, thousands of spirit stones are a hurdle. If the price exceeds this, everyone tacitly agrees not to chase it.
Lin Shan also breathed a sigh of relief. He was not greedy at all. One thousand spirit stones was already a huge sum of money that he could not even imagine. For a moment, he began to imagine how he would spend the money after he got out.
……
The auction gradually reached its climax. When the finale item came out, the noise from the audience grew louder and Lin Shan also began to look around.
"Now let me introduce the finale treasure of this auction."
"Five hundred years ago, there was a sect in the Great Song Dynasty called the Happy Sect. For unknown reasons, it was wiped out overnight! The ruins of the sect have now been discovered in Jiangdong, and all the items auctioned this time were obtained from the ruins."
When Mr. Zhang's voice sounded again, he began to introduce them one by one. When he read one of the items, Lin Shan's heart suddenly started beating wildly.
"Golden Core Stage Dual Cultivation Technique - Spring Wind and Rain Dew Technique, starting price 10000 Spiritual Stones
Damaged magic weapon - Thousand Banners, base price 20000 Spirit Stones
Damaged magic weapon - Lion head Zen staff, base price 20000 Spirit Stones
Magic Pill - Jini Taimei Pill, low price 20000 Spirit Stones
Treasure Pill - Dragon and Tiger Pill, base price 5000 Spirit Stones
Happy Buddha Statue, starting price: 1000 Lingshi!
......"
Happy Buddha!
When Lin Shan heard this, he was stunned.
As for what else was behind, Lin Shan ignored it because he couldn't afford it anyway.
But things like Buddha statues, when you hear them, you can tell that they are related to faith and fortune, so they must have a lot of ancient charm!
Lin Shan had come across black lotus Buddha statues before, but they were only of a bit of ancient charm. As for the giant black lotus Buddha statue in the Yelang Tomb in Zangke County, it was said to have been bought by a nobleman in the capital. After he arrived in the capital, he still commissioned Nightingale to investigate. He would have to wait three months before he could find out who bought it.
As for the Buddha statues in other mortal temples, he dared not touch them. After all, the Buddha in the immortal world was still alive and well, and even warned him from across the world not to mess around, so he naturally knew better and would not provoke them.
Now there is a Happy Buddha statue here, and it seems that the Happy Sect has been wiped out! It is equivalent to an ownerless thing, so isn't this a piece of fat meat?
Lin Shan's heart started beating fast. After thinking for a long time, he finally rang the doorbell.
After a while, a receptionist from the auction house came to the box. She was a female cultivator in the late stage of Qi training.
After seeing Lin Shan, he naturally recognized him. After all, the chief appraiser, Mr. Zhang, had recommended him so loudly yesterday, and all the monks in the auction house knew about him as the prospective chief appraiser.
"Master Lin, what can I do for you?" The receptionist thought for a long time before coming up with this title.
"No, no, I just want to ask, can our auction house give credit to internal employees?" Lin Shan smiled embarrassedly.
The receptionist looked at him blankly for a moment, then thought for a moment, "It seems that there is no such thing as credit, but you can advance three months of offerings in advance! Moreover, our internal monks can be exempted from the commission and handling fee when participating in the auction. We can even provide a 20% discount for the first auction of items below 2,000."
When Lin Shan heard this, he began to count on his fingers. He received 1000 from the purple spiritual fruit auction, and he also had 300 spiritual stones for the three-month tribute in advance, which was 1300 spiritual stones. If he waived the handling fee and got a 1625% discount, he could theoretically buy something worth spiritual stones.
But Lin Shan still felt a little guilty and unsafe, so he turned around and looked at the female receptionist.
"How about you lend me some?"
Lin Shan asked carefully, but was rejected by the receptionist! We are all Moonlight Clan, we can't even afford the cave house fee, how can we lend you money?
After a disappointing result, Lin Shan had no choice but to wait patiently for the auction of the Happy Buddha statue.
Right now, the finale auction item in front is being fought over by powerful people. The Jindan stage technique was sold for 20,000 spirit stones, and the two damaged magic weapons at the back exceeded 30,000 spirit stones.
After all, magic weapons are different from magic tools. They are treasures that can only be used by Jindan-stage cultivators. Even if they are damaged, they are extremely precious and rare! The last time Yichuan Auction House auctioned a magic weapon was 20 years ago.
Generally, the things used by these high-level cultivators are exchanged for goods, and are rarely traded with spirit stones. This time it is probably because they happened to be unearthed during the ruins.
As for the Vitality Pill, it seems to give the elderly a second lease of life and allow them to raise the flag again.
When it was finally the turn of the Happy Buddha statue, everyone's enthusiasm was obviously not high. After all, this thing was the least conspicuous one among the unearthed items.
"1000 spiritual stones!"
"1100!"
"1200!"
……
Later on, the entire auction hall was filled with only the voices of two people shouting bids.
One of them was naturally Lin Shan, and the other was a red-faced monk sitting in the Qi training area below the stage.
This man had a round face, big ears, a straight nose, a square mouth, a full beard, and a string of Buddhist beads the size of walnuts hanging around his neck. He looked like someone who was not someone to be trifled with.
Lin Shan didn't know why this monk was so obsessed with a Buddha statue, as if he was determined to get it.
Red-faced monk: "1400 spirit stones!"
Lin Shan: "1500 Spiritual Stones!"
Red-faced monk: "1600 spirit stones!"
Lin Shan: "1625 Spiritual Stones!"
Red-faced monk: “.”
Everyone in the venue looked at a private room on the second floor with a strange look on their faces. Although the auction rules did not specify how much the bid could be raised each time, everyone assumed that the bid must be at least 100 spirit stones. Where did this kid come from? Didn't the elders tell you that you could sit in the private room?
At this time, Lin Shan in the box tapped his toes on the ground, feeling ashamed. He was too excited and accidentally added all the chips. This 25 cents was really embarrassing. Being stared at by thousands of monks, he was also scared.
Elder Zhang on the stage was also secretly wondering, what is this kid doing? Is 1625 spirit stones his limit? Should I help him?
The red-faced monk in the casual cultivation area was stunned. He was confused for a while by Lin Shan's unconventional behavior, but soon realized that this kid might have no spirit stones! Then, can I easily control him?
Just when he wanted to kill Lin Shan in one fell swoop and take a picture of the Happy Buddha statue, Mr. Zhang on the stage had already reacted first! Holding the small hammer in his hand, he spoke as fast as a crossbow!
"1625 Spiritual Stones per time!"
"1625 spirit stones twice!"
"1625 Spiritual Stones three times!"
"Wait! I'll give you 1,700."
"Bang! Deal!"
“Congratulations to the person in the second floor box for winning this item: the Happy Buddha Statue!”
The red-faced monk almost spat out a mouthful of blood! The price was forced back into his mouth! It was the first time in his life that he had seen such a fast speaking speed. Is there anyone who asks the price and hammers like you?
It's a shady deal! It's definitely a shady deal!
