Chapter 7 Wooden Fish

When Liang Yan walked to the agreed meeting place, Chen Chong and Xu Kun were already waiting there, and only Tang Yan, a woman in red, had not arrived yet. Chen Chong smiled at Liang Yan and said, "Sorry, maybe Fellow Daoist Tang has delayed the important matter, let's wait for a moment."

Liang Yan greeted him, "It's okay, I don't have anything to do anyway." After that, he stood beside the two of them and waited silently.

After about a cup of tea, a strong girlish fragrance came, and then a woman in red came.

"Sorry, I've been waiting for you for a long time. It's really because the little woman suddenly had something to do and delayed her schedule. Tang Yan is here to apologize to you."

Liang Yan looked at her and saw that the girl was wearing a tight red robe today, and she seemed to have carefully put on makeup on her face. She was born quite beautiful. In addition to the young girl herself, she actually had a faint charm of a young woman. The combination of the two temperaments made Liang Yan stunned.

I don’t know if it was his illusion. When the girl was talking, she smiled and glanced at him from time to time. If she didn’t know him, she would think they were spreading love here.

At this time, Chen Chong coughed and said, "Fellow Daoist Tang is so polite. We didn't have much trouble at first. Now we are going to attend the auction, so we have more than enough time. Speaking of which, if we can pass through the fairy, how could we not even wait for this little time? Do you think so?"

When he said this last sentence, Chen Chong looked at Liang Yan intentionally or unintentionally. Liang Yan smiled awkwardly and said, "The fairy is too worried. Since we are companions, how can we care about this moment?"

"That's good!" Tang Yan patted her chest with some exaggeration, and then smiled playfully at Liang Yan, "I thought I had just met her, but I messed up my image in Mr. Liang's mind."

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Liang is broad-minded, Fairy Tang is too worried. Since we are all together, let's go now?" Chen Chong asked. Naturally, everyone had no objection and walked out of the town.

The four of them walked together and walked for about an hour. The mountain road was slanted and the top of the mountain could be vaguely seen. Chen Chong stopped, and instead of walking on the mountain path, he turned to the depths of the forest. Everyone followed him, and walked for about another stick of incense. From a distance, he saw a giant cave in the mountain with a few lights hidden inside. When he got closer, he saw that there were few monks entering and leaving the cave entrance. It seemed that the auction conference was about to begin.

Chen Chong pointed to a tall young man at the entrance of the cave and said excitedly: "That is my cousin, the outer disciple of Tan Shanzong, Chen Hu!" He said that, and led everyone forward quickly, walked to the tall young man and shouted: "Brother, it's me, Chen Chong!"

The young man named Chen Hu looked at him expressionlessly, frowned and said, "Why are you here? If you don't practice well, come and stroll around again. Your cultivation level has stopped moving forward."

Chen Chong quickly said, "Isn't this to be the one who has been promoted to an outer disciple of Tanshan Sect? I'm here to congratulate you on your own and ask you for guidance."

Chen Hu nodded quite helpfully, looked behind Chen Chong again, and asked, "What are these?"

"These are all casual cultivators I have met. This time I brought them to see the truth." Chen Chun made a gesture to Chen Hu without any trace.

Chen Hu seemed to understand it and nodded and smiled, "Since it's your friend, this little thing is naturally no problem. You can go in. These are your brands, you can get them each. At the auction later, if you see something you like, you can quote this brand."

After everyone thanked him, they all went to receive a wooden sign. Liang Yan also came forward to take it. He glanced at him and saw the words "Three Qiqi" written on the wooden sign. Then he followed everyone into the cave.

I saw a different cave in the cave. The whole cave was surprisingly large. The crystal stones of unknown material were used on the cave walls, which emitted a light like daylight in the middle of the night. A platform was temporarily built with a horizontal wood in the innermost part of the cave, and a large table was placed on it, which was obviously used for auction.

There were more than 100 cushions in the middle of the cave, and it was almost full at this time, with only a few scattered positions. Liang Yan looked at the scene and the cultivation of everyone present fell into his mind one by one, most of which were from the fifth and sixth levels of Qi training. There were also very few people who reached the eighth and nineth levels of Qi training. Just as during the observation, Liang Yan suddenly noticed that there were three sunken caves on the wall of the cave, which did not look natural, but seemed to be artificial. The cave was blocked by a bamboo curtain, and it was impossible to see the situation inside.

"This is an auction held by Yixing Pavilion. Although some disciples from nearby sects will be temporarily requisitioned to assist, they will also send the foundation-building seniors in the sect to take charge in order to prevent someone from making trouble. In the three caves on the walls of the cave, there are the three foundation-building seniors who came to supervise this time."

As if he could see the confusion in Liang Yan's eyes, Tang Yan, a woman in red, explained softly, Liang Yan's face was slightly red, and he nodded to her with gratitude.

"We came too late and there were not many seats anymore. It seemed that we had to sit separately." Chen Chong sighed.

"That's all, let's take our seats." The short and fat young man Xu Kun walked towards one place first, and then Chen Chong left alone. Tang Yan bowed to Liang Yan and said with a smile: "I wish Brother Liang a great reward in advance." After that, he also walked towards a cushion.

Only Liang Yan himself was left and found a remote corner to sit down.

After about a cup of tea, I saw that no one had entered the entrance of the cave. Suddenly, a figure flew out from the cave on the wall and landed on the horizontal wooden platform. I saw a scholar in Confucian robe holding a folding fan in his hand, glanced at the bottom of the stage and said:

"In the lower Lin Fei, he is the elder in the position of Yixing Pavilion, and is responsible for supervising the auction. Since you are here to enjoy your face, you are giving me a little face in Yixing Pavilion. I hope everyone can gain something here. But if someone makes trouble here, Humph, Lin will never stand by and watch!"

This sentence was extremely polite, but his tone was cold, especially the last sentence, which spread throughout the audience as the pressure of his Foundation Establishment Period spread, making the Qi Refining Period monks present frightened. Liang Yan did not doubt that if someone caused trouble here, the scholar would take action to kill him without hesitation.

Seeing that his purpose was achieved, the scholar nodded to a red-nosed old man below the stage, and then retreated to the cave on the wall.

The old man then jumped onto the stage, coughed, and said to the audience: "Everyone is welcome to participate in this auction, this time

It’s a bit special. We have a few finale items that will be placed at the front for auction. I hope everyone can come back with satisfaction. Okay, I won’t say more, let’s go to our first auction item first.”

As he said that, two beautiful women walked upstairs carrying a tray, with a mahogany box on it.

"This first auction item is the top priority today. It is a talisman refined by a Taoist senior. It can be used at the fifth level of Qi training and can burst out a full-strength attack equivalent to the early stage of foundation building, but it can only be used three times."

As soon as this statement was made, the audience was in an uproar. Although it could only be used three times when it could exert its strength in the early stage of foundation building, it was tantamount to three more chances to save lives for these Qi Refining Cultivators. This kind of treasure is indeed rare. Many children of large families in the crowd were already secretly ready to take this talisman as the object in their bag.

Liang Yan just glanced lightly and looked away. He was not yet able to cultivate enough now, and he didn't even have the capital to activate the talisman, and he would not pay attention to this. He came to the auction just to see if there were any pills that could improve his cultivation.

The talisman was indeed raised to a sky-high price by everyone, and was finally taken away by a middle-aged man in black for nine hundred spirit stones. The old man saw that the first auction item was so popular, and he couldn't help but smile and introduced the second treasure with a smile.

Unfortunately, these things are either talismans or spiritual weapons, and they are often of extremely high grade, exceeding Liang Yan's budget, so they did not bid.

Five items were sold in succession, all of which were sold at sky-high prices. Although the red-nosed old man was calm, he was already happy. Once these auction items were sold, they would charge more than 20% of the commission.

It was the sixth auction item on the stage. The old man unveiled the red cloth for the cover and saw a light yellow wooden fish inside. It was simple in shape and filled with a faint spiritual light. You could tell at a glance that it was not an ordinary thing.

The old man from Red Nose paused and said loudly: "This sixth auction item is a Buddhist treasure. It is a long time ago. Whoever refined it is now untestable. However, the level of this spiritual weapon is undoubtedly very high. Moreover, when you are meditating and practicing, you can play a calm and calm function and assist in cultivation. It can increase the cultivation speed by about 10%. However, this also varies from person to person. The specific effect depends on your qualifications. The starting price is fifty spirit stones, and you can start bidding."

Everyone in the audience looked at each other, no one responded for a moment. It was in sharp contrast to the heat of the previous auction items. After a while, someone asked tentatively: "How effective is this wooden fish to attack the enemy, and to trap the enemy? Or do they have any defensive means?"

The old man with red nose touched his nose and smiled awkwardly: "There are no such effects, but we monks are the first to focus on our own cultivation. This treasure can assist in cultivation, and it is also a rare thing."

As soon as this was said, the audience was immediately in an uproar. Many monks shook their heads secretly. The previous auction items were all treasures that could be used when fighting with others. Once you bought them, you could improve your own strength. On the other hand, although this wooden fish looks extremely high in grade, it has no use to fight against enemies. It only helps to increase the speed of cultivation by 10% is really useless. Everyone is not stupid. No one is so stupid that you can say that the old man is so scattered, no one is going to be the sucker at this moment.

The old man with red nose still didn't give up and swept his eyes around, just trying to find a buyer who was moved.

This wooden fish was obtained by chance during an adventure in a secret realm. He thought it was a treasure, but after studying for a long time, he had no effect except that he could concentrate and calm his energy. Then he took it to the auction privately to make up for some losses through connections.

At this time, everyone in the audience was already impatient. Seeing that no one raised the sign, some people even started to urge them, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

The old man from red nose sighed in his heart and said slowly: "Since that's the case, let's change the next one first."

A sound suddenly came from the hall.

"Fifty spirit stones, I want them!"
