Chapter 653: Northern Reed Immortal Ginseng

The second temporary item was also covered with red cloth, and there were restrictions under the Xianli cloth on it, so no one participating in the auction could know in advance what was under the red cloth.

Master Lingyun removed the red cloth and saw a dragonfly that looked like a boxwood carving placed on the plate.

"Wood Dragonfly!"

"It's actually a wooden dragonfly!"

"This is a good thing!"

"A rare thing, an absolute rare thing!"

"..."

Various sounds suddenly sounded in the hall.

The wooden dragonfly is indeed a good thing. To a certain extent, owning it gives you the possibility of surviving a desperate situation. This thing is no stranger to ancient disputes. Back on earth, he once got one when the angry man was going through the tribulation, and later gave it to his father Gu Ming. When Zhao Yifeng wanted to kill Gu Ming, it was the wooden dragonfly who saved him. The ancient fight for a name teleported him from France to Shushan.

Logically speaking, such a precious wooden dragonfly should not be placed in an intermediate auction, but since it is placed here, there is a reason for it to be placed here.

It is true that the wooden dragonfly can allow people to escape from desperate situations. If the teleportation position of the wooden dragonfly is set in advance, then as long as they do not encounter cultivators above the Golden Immortal Realm, they can escape in an instant. However, when facing the cultivators of the Golden Immortal Realm, it is extremely difficult to escape with the help of wooden dragonflies. After all, the cultivators of the Golden Immortal Realm are already considered advanced cultivators. Even if they have not comprehended much of the way of space, they can still manage in an instant. The energy of heaven and earth is powerful enough to affect the relatively fragile teleportation trajectory of the wooden dragonfly.

If the person using the wooden dragonfly has an accident due to the impact of the teleportation orbit during the short period of teleportation, then this will be an extremely serious consequence. The person using the wooden dragonfly will be involved in the space turbulence, so that there is no chance of death. born!

Even though the wooden dragonfly has its drawbacks, this still does not affect its placement in the finale of the mid-level auction. After all, the wooden dragonfly can allow people to escape from desperate situations, and this desperate situation does not only refer to enemies, but may also be dangerous situations such as exploration. environment.

"Wooden Dragonfly, the base price is fifty-five Huangxian coins, and each increase in price must not be less than one Huangxian coin. The bidding starts now." Lingyun said.

"Fifty-seven Huangxian coins!"

"Fifty-eight Huangxian coins!"

"Sixty Huangxian coins!"

"Sixty-five Huangxian coins!"

"..."

There was a lot of bidding, and finally the wooden dragonfly was sold for 80 Huangxian coins, and the afternoon auction came to an end.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, aren't you attracted to Wood Dragonfly?" Huang Qi said in a voice.

"Heartbeat, no one has too much of this kind of thing, but I already have one." Gu Zheng answered with a smile.

Gu Zheng did have a wooden dragonfly. This wooden dragonfly was given by Master Ziyun when he left Shushan. So although he was interested in the wooden dragonfly today, he did not bid for it.

Gu Zheng and Huang Qi chatted while walking. Not long after returning to their residence, someone came to the door.

The person who came was looking for Huang Qi. He was the old man with a beard who had had a conflict with Huang Qi in the backyard.

During the auction, the person who competed with Huang Qi for the Void Return Pill was the old man with a beard. He didn't know how, but he found out through some method that it was Huang Qi who made him win the Void Return Pill for eighty-five Huangxian coins, so he came over. Looking for trouble.

"I don't want to tell you anything more. This is Qingfeng Temple. Do you want to do something here? Don't forget the warning from Master Lingyun at the auction!" Huang Qi said lightly.

The auction house has the rules of the auction house. You are not allowed to threaten others. Qingfeng Temple also has the rules of Qingfeng Temple. Picking quarrels and causing trouble is not allowed here.

In any case, it was very embarrassing to be called to the door. Although the other two immortal cultivators in the guest room didn't say anything, they were all looking at Huang Qi's joke.

"You coward will only use Qingfeng Temple as a shield."

The bearded old man looked at Huang Qi with disdain. He did not dare to take action in Qingfeng Temple. Now that he had used his power, he turned around and wanted to leave.

Gu Zheng has also been paying attention to the development of the situation, but he has never made a sound and just watched quietly.

The bearded old man stopped again, looked at Gu Zheng's unflinching eyes, and said provocatively: "Boy, what are you looking at?"

"You look so majestic!"

Gu Zheng sneered and narrowed his eyes.

"Ancestor, I am very majestic, aren't you convinced?"

The old man with a long beard took a step towards Gu Zheng and narrowed his eyes.

"I'm really not convinced. How about we go out and have a chat?"

I was originally unhappy with this bearded old man, but now he dared to make trouble, which made Gu Zheng feel helpless!

"Fellow Daoist Bai, this is my business. If you want to go out and talk about it, I will go out with him!"

Gu Zheng would have friction with the old man with a beard, and the reason was because of Huang Qi, so Huang Qi also spoke at this time.

He was already surprised by Gu Zheng's courage, but now he saw that Huang Qi, who had always been weak, dared to straighten his back. This made the old man with a beard frown and scratch his head.

"I'm really confused, who gave you the courage to do this? You two little brats, both want to talk to the ancestor? Okay! Don't give in, let's talk about what we have to say together!"

The bearded old man laughed. Since these two people wanted to die, he really didn't mind giving them a ride. So, with a shudder, he left the guest room and walked towards the mountain gate.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, this is my matter, I can handle it myself." Huang Qi said.

"He pissed me off. This is not just your business anymore."

Gu Zheng had also left the guest room while he was talking.

The other two people in the guest room saw Gu Zheng and the others leave, and they followed immediately, eager to see the excitement.

However, they thought there would be excitement to see, but who would have thought that they would be stopped by the people of Qingfeng Temple.

Qingfeng Temple does not allow anyone to leave, because they have closed the mountain after the auction began. If you want to leave Qingfeng Temple, you can only wait until the auction is over.

"Two little guys, if you have the guts, wait for the ancestor after the auction is over, and then we can have a good chat!"

The old man with a long beard left a word and laughed and left.

"Brother Bai, this is strange! Why do you want to close the mountain? No new bidders will be accepted after the auction begins, so let the Taoist boy block people outside the mountain gate. There is no need to close the mountain!" Huangqi said in a voice transmission.

"The reason for closing the mountain is a bit far-fetched, let's go and see!" Gu Zheng said.

"I originally wanted to let you leave, but seeing the attitude of those people in Qingfeng Temple just now, it is very difficult to leave now even if there is something important." Huangqi said worriedly.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Huang. I'll naturally rely on you if I choose to stay." Gu Zheng said with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, I'd like to ask you, what realm are you in?" Huang Qi asked.

"Late Golden Immortal."

"What?"

Huang Qi was surprised by Gu Zheng's answer, which was not unexpected by Gu Zheng. After all, cultivators can tell each other's approximate age.

"I really didn't expect it. I saw that Fellow Daoist was so young, but I never thought that you could have such a cultivation!"

Huang Qi paused, and then said, "It's a good thing that Fellow Daoist has a high level of cultivation. If something happens at that time, we should take care of each other!"

"No problem." Gu Zheng said.

At first, Gu Zheng felt that Huang Qi was a little talkative, but he reminded Gu Zheng to be careful last night, which made Gu Zheng feel that he was a good person. If something really happened in Qingfeng Temple, he would naturally take care of him.

There was wine and food in Qingfeng Temple in the evening. Although there was nothing fishy, ​​Gu Zheng and Huang Qi did not go to eat.

After dinner, everyone came to the side hall, waiting for the start of the high-level auction.

Without letting everyone wait too long, Lingyun Zhenren soon appeared with several Taoist children holding plates.

"This evening's auction is a high-level auction, and the items that appear during the auction are also good. If you Taoist friends have any that you like, don't miss it. Now let's start the auction of the first item!"

Without too much nonsense, accompanied by Lingyun Zhenren's voice, the Taoist child brought the first item to the table.

The first auction item was placed in a jade bottle. According to the booklet, it was exactly the ice-clear jade liquid that Huangqi wanted.

"Ice-clear jade liquid, a high-level alchemy material, has a wide range of uses, so I don't need to introduce it in detail. Now let's start the auction. The reserve price is 60 Huangxian coins, and each bid must not be less than one Huangxian coin."

As soon as Lingyun Zhenren finished speaking, the sound of bidding immediately rang out.

"Sixty-eight Huangxian coins!"

"Seventy Huangxian coins!"

"Seventy-five Huangxian coins!"

"Eighty Huangxian coins!"

"Eighty-five Huangxian coins!"

When the price of Bingqing Yuye was raised to eighty-five Huangxian coins, the scene was temporarily quiet.

Huangqi gritted his teeth and quoted: "Ninety Huangxian coins!"

After hearing Huangqi's offer, Gu Zheng couldn't help but frown. In his cognition, the value of Bingqing Yuye was at most eighty Huangxian coins. After all, it was just a material for alchemy, and there was a possibility of failure in alchemy.

"Friend Huang, is this Bingqing Yuye really worth ninety Huangxian coins?" Gu Zheng couldn't help but ask.

"Worth it!"

Huangqi's answer was not hesitant at all.

In the end, Huangqi won the Bingqing Yuye that he liked with ninety Huangxian coins. Compared with the Bingqing Yuye, the auction of the next few items seemed a little deserted, and even one of the refining materials failed to be sold.

However, when the sixth auction item appeared, the scene became noisy again, because it was Beilu Xianshen, which has a wide range of uses!

"What a good thing!"

"I've been waiting for Beilu Xianshen!"

"I must get this Beilu Xianshen!"

"I must get it too, I want to use it to refine the 'Seven Ginsengs and Seven Zhi Pills'!"

"..."

The appearance of Beilu Xianshen made the atmosphere lively, but Gu Zheng's brows were tightly furrowed.

"Qi Ling, have you seen Beilu Xianshen before?" Gu Zheng asked.

"No, what's wrong?" Qi Ling said.

"This ginseng looks the same as Beilu Xianshen, but the actual effects are completely different!" Gu Zheng said.

Gu Zheng first knew about the Beilu Xianshen ingredient when he read the classics in the Shushan Library. There are pictures of Beilu Xianshen in the classics, as well as descriptions of its medicinal effects. Gu Zheng deduced that it is suitable as an auxiliary ingredient for the holy fruit food cultivation based on this information.

However, others can't see the problem with the Beilu Xianshen in front of him, but Gu Zheng can see it! After all, all ingredients can be displayed ‘digitally’ in his eyes. He could tell at a glance that this Beilu Immortal Ginseng did not match the records in the classics. It did not have the characteristics of Beilu Immortal Ginseng at all. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was another kind of ginseng.

“But this is indeed a high-grade ingredient! What’s going on?”

The spirit of the instrument was also a little depressed. It was not easy to see Beilu Immortal Ginseng, but it was completely another kind of thing.

Almost immediately following Qi Ling's voice, Master Lingyun on the stage also announced the start of the auction of Bei Lu Xian Ginseng, and the bidding sounds immediately became loud.

"Wait!"

Gu Zheng's voice finally sounded, startling everyone like thunder.

"What happened to the fellow Taoist who spoke? You will be punished for disrupting the auction for no reason!" Master Lingyun looked very unhappy.

"I would like to ask if this is really Beibixian Ginseng?" Gu Zheng sneered.

"Of course this is Beibixian Ginseng. What do fellow Taoists mean by this?" Master Lingyun frowned.

"Fellow Taoists who want to buy Beibi ginseng should also know the medicinal effects of Beibi ginseng. Do you dare to inspect this Beibi ginseng?"

Gu Zheng's voice made Master Lingyun frown even more tightly, and several immortal cultivators who had originally bid for Bei Lu Xian Ginseng also made their voices heard.

"Master Lingyun, what's going on?"

"That's right! Why would anyone say this is not Beili Xian Ginseng?"

"What's going on? Is it because the fellow Taoist who spoke is ignorant, or is there something wrong with the ginseng on the stage?"

"Let's inspect the goods! You will understand after you inspect them. When that fellow Taoist said it, I felt a little unsure. The Beili Xian Ginseng on the stand seems a bit strange!"

"Everyone, be quiet!"

Master Lingyun's voice was like a bell, and the scene immediately became quiet: "It's an auction now. We can't suspend the auction just because of one person's doubts. After all, testing whether this is Beili Xian Ginseng cannot be done in a short while. The most convincing way to get results is to use it to stew soup and see if there will be 'reed pattern' on the surface of the soup."

Master Lingyun's voice paused, and then he said: "Since it cannot be inspected immediately, and the auction cannot be delayed because of this matter, then let's put the Beibi ginseng aside first and continue the auction of the next item. , after the auction is over, let’s find out what the truth is, shall we?”

"Okay, that's it!"

"This is a good idea!"

"Go on, continue the auction!"

"..."

The bidders spoke out one after another. After all, what Master Lingyun said was reasonable. People who didn't want Bei Lu Xian Ginseng were impatient to waste time because of its problems.

"There are quite a few immortal cultivators who are attracted by Bei Luxian Ginseng, and if you can hold an auction, your ability to identify items should not be wrong. This Qingfeng Guan is ruthless!" Qi Ling smiled.

"Keep watching to see what other tricks they want to play." Gu Zheng also smiled.

At the same time, Qingfengguan was underground.

A man, a woman and a child were in a space underground, quietly looking at a curtain of light in the void. The clothes of the three of them were all very old-fashioned, and their faces were ashen, a bit like the living dead. If Gu Zheng saw these three people, he would definitely be able to recognize that these three people were not human beings, but three corpse cultivators who had become climates.

The so-called corpse cultivation refers to corpses that can be cultivated with spiritual wisdom. It wraps zombies and refines corpses, etc.

The three corpses are currently paying attention to the light curtain in the sky, and the scene shown in the light curtain is exactly the scene in the auction house.

"This guy was able to tell that it was a fake Beibixian ginseng from across the immortal formation. How did he do it?"

The voice of the male corpse who spoke was very cold. His eyes were just staring at Gu Zheng in the light screen. It was his spiritual thought that swept across Gu Zheng's guest room last night.

"Husband, looking closely at this child actually gives me a feeling of extreme danger!" The livid-faced female corpse bit her lip.

"oh?"

The male corpse suddenly turned his head, looked at the female corpse and said cautiously: "My husband's strength is equivalent to that of Daluo Jinxian, but he can still make you feel extremely dangerous?"

"That's right!"

The female corpse nodded, her eyes equally solemn.

"Madam's sixth sense has always been very accurate. What should we do now?" The male corpse seemed a little hesitant.

"How about forgetting it this time?" the female corpse asked.

"No!"

A sharp look flashed in the male corpse's eyes: "This time is different from the past. Just give up and wait for another five years. This time is a rare eruption of corpse energy in a thousand years. If you miss this opportunity, you will have to find such a treasure in the future." Difficult! How will you enter the zombie ancestor realm? How will Lin'er enter the corpse demon realm?"

After the corpse cultivator enters the realm of the immortal cultivator, there are five stages: corpse monster, corpse demon, corpse demon, corpse immortal, and corpse ancestor, which correspond to the immortal cultivator's realms of Qi Transformation, Divine Transformation, Return to the Void, Golden Immortal, and Daluo Golden Immortal. .

"Mom, I don't care, I want to eat their immortal power balls. Lin'er hasn't eaten the immortal power balls from the cultivators for five years. Lin'er misses that feeling!"

The child corpse shook the female corpse's arm, stretched out his tongue and licked the sharp teeth at the corner of his mouth.

"Madam, don't worry anymore. Your sixth sense has always been very accurate, but it has not always made mistakes. We are completely prepared this time. Could he still be a Daluo Jinxian?" the male corpse sneered.

"All right!"

The female corpse also licked her teeth, with a hint of madness in her eyes: "However, it is best to change the original plan. It will be safer to defeat them one by one!"

As time wore on, the last item in the auction was sold. During this period, Gu Zheng did not take pictures of anything, and he also told Huang Qi not to take pictures. Huang Qi originally felt that Qingfeng Temple was weird, and since he got the Bingqing Jade Liquid that he wanted most, he also did not bid on the items that were later auctioned.

"Ahem!"

Master Lingyun cleared his throat.
