Chapter 493 I Want the Ticket!

…

The outside of the auction was very crowded and noisy, with almost a hundred people competing for ten entry tickets.

And that man also seemed smart, invisibly raising the ticket price in this way, a bit like a scalper who resells tickets.

"I didn't expect there were scalpers here! But this is the first time I've seen them so blatantly." Luo Zhen said with emotion.

Auctions generally don't do this kind of thing to speculate on prices, and even if they do, they won't be so blatant. So Luo Zhen guessed that this man should be a scalper.

Luo Zhen's guess was not wrong. The man in front of him was indeed a scalper. Logically speaking, he was reselling tickets in front of the auction, so he should have been kicked away long ago.

But no one cared about it at all. Occasionally, a few people came out of the auction and pretended not to have seen it.

"Hey, Song Teng, you've had enough. Isn't it embarrassing to do this?" A woman suddenly rushed out of the auction, pointed at the man and cursed.

"Song Qian, get out of here. I'm trying to earn some pocket money. Is it bothering you? If I hadn't spent all the spiritual stones this month and the old man still refused to give me the spiritual stones, how could I do this?"

The man named Song Teng had an unhappy face and spoke rudely to the woman.

The man's name is Song Teng, and his father is the president of the Wansheng Auction and the president of the Wansheng Chamber of Commerce. The woman's name is Song Qian, and she is the president's daughter.

But strictly speaking, the two are not siblings, but half-brothers.

Song Teng was usually very arrogant and extravagant, spending money like water. He often ran out of money at the end of the month, and then had to make some small business in the name of Wansheng Chamber of Commerce.

Now reselling tickets is one of his money-making projects.

"Then don't stay in front of the Chamber of Commerce. Can't you go somewhere else?" Song Qian said dissatisfiedly and was very unfavorable to Song Teng.

After all, Song Teng often did this kind of thing, but the president still forgave him in the end, which made Song Qian confused.

However, these grievances and hatreds have nothing to do with Luo Zhen. Luo Zhen only wants the tickets, and Luo Zhen is too lazy to care about other things.

"Thirty thousand top-quality spiritual stones!" Luo Zhen suddenly walked up to Song Teng and said.

Song Teng was just about to reply to Song Qian's words when he heard Luo Zhen proudly announce the price and said excitedly: "Okay, okay, a ticket?"

"right."

After hearing about Luo Zhen, Song Teng was slightly disappointed, but soon returned to normal.

Unexpectedly, Song Teng was just about to hand the tickets to Luo Zhen when Song Qian suddenly snatched them away and said sternly: "You can't buy tickets! You have to buy them elsewhere!"

Luo Zhen was too lazy to pay attention to Song Qian, stretched out his right hand and said, "Give it to me!" His words were so overbearing that even Song Qian couldn't help but feel a little bit in her heart.

Seeing that Song Qian still had no intention of returning it to him, Luo Zhen snorted and flashed.

Grab the tickets.

After a while, Luo Zhen took the tickets and left calmly.

Song Qian was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses, but Luo Zhen had already left and was missing.

"Where's the person? Do you think you can run away? I have to catch you tomorrow!" Song Qian said displeased, with an angry look on her pretty face.

"Song Teng! Don't disgrace our Wansheng Chamber of Commerce!" Song Qian suddenly remembered business and shouted angrily at Song Teng.

"What's wrong with me selling things? Why do you care about everything!"

…

Luo Zhen was not in the mood to care about their bad things.

Anyway, it’s great to have the tickets!

"Anyway, the auction won't start until tomorrow, let's take a stroll now!" Luo Zhen said to himself.

Practicing and enjoying at the same time is Luo Zhen’s life principle!

Luo Zhen is sitting on the system, a heaven-defying artifact, and does not need to spend decades or even hundreds of years in cultivation like those old monsters from the sect.

That's too boring!

Why practice? Isn't it just to become stronger and do what you want to do? Just like the secular people in previous lives worked hard, it was also to make life better.

So Luo Zhen walked leisurely on the street and bought some snacks from time to time. It was like going shopping in his previous life, which made Luo Zhen very comfortable!

But Luo Zhen now owns high-grade spiritual stones piece by piece, even top-grade spiritual stones, so he can only give a whole piece when buying things.

But Luo Zhen is considered rich now and doesn't care about the few spiritual stones at all.

But this was a surprise for the vendors.

Imagine that you are selling ordinary candied haws, and suddenly a person throws you a few hundred yuan and then takes away a candied haws.

This is probably the expression and mood of these traders after receiving the spiritual stones.

Shocked, then confused, and finally overjoyed.

So Luo Zhen now feels like a billionaire walking on the street.

Luo Zhen was wandering on the street and naturally heard something.

"Have you heard? Yesterday, in a small town, more than 10,000 people died, and all their blood was sucked dry!" A man on the street who was buying meat said to the meat seller.

"I heard it, it has nothing to do with us." The boss said nonchalantly.

"Isn't it okay? I heard that the town is located in a vassal country of our Blood Zhou Kingdom! And I heard that the deaths were miserable! Some people even left only bones! Do you think it is the legendary one? Demon clan?"

The meat-buying man's words were extremely realistic, his facial expressions were very rich, and he could tell he was extremely frightened.

If Luo Zhen had been in his previous life, he would have been awarded an Oscar!

"Oh, what are you worrying about all day long? The city lord's palace already said that there are evil cultivators causing trouble, and they were caught quickly. Where are the demons? Be careful to spread rumors, they will be arrested!"

The boss said impatiently, showing great disdain for the man.

What era is it, and people still believe in demons?

In the Savage Continent, demons are equivalent to dinosaurs in the secular world. If someone in the secular world says that he has seen a dinosaur, then you will definitely make the same expression as the boss.

"Don't spread rumors about your meat, otherwise it will be caught and no one will buy my meat!" The boss handed the cut meat to the man and said jokingly.

After the man left, Luo Zhen stepped forward to ask.

"Boss, what happened to the demons and evil cultivators you just mentioned?"

The boss looked at Luo Zhen and explained:

"You should be from another place, right? You may not know much. I heard that everyone in a small town died, and the death was extremely tragic. There was no flesh and blood, and many people were left with only bones."

The boss wiped his hands with a towel and continued to explain:

"Then some people insisted that it was done by the demons. You said that no one has ever heard of seeing the demons, so why are so many people talking about it? And the City Lord's Mansion said that it was done by evil cultivators, but there are still people talking about demons!"

The demons do exist, and Luo Zhen has been to the Demon Valley, so he is naturally very clear.

But these ordinary people or low-level practitioners stay in a small city or kingdom for their whole lives, so they are naturally not aware of the outside world.

Luo Zhen had no intention of explaining, after all, they had already formed a fixed idea in their hearts: the demons do not exist.

Even if they explained, they would not believe it.

However, after hearing what the butcher said, Luo Zhen seemed to remember the black shadow he had seen in the Black Flame Mountains before.

"Maybe, it is related to that black shadow?" Luo Zhen whispered.

Seeing Luo Zhen frowning and thinking, the boss thought Luo Zhen was worried, and immediately kindly reminded him:

"Don't worry, our country is strong, and I heard that there are emperors in charge, so you don't have to worry about safety."

"Well, thank you!"

Luo Zhen clasped his fists to thank him, and then left the butcher shop, walking casually in an unknown direction, thinking about what the boss had just said.

In Luo Zhen's opinion, this incident was most likely done by the demons. Ordinary people don't believe in the demons, but Luo Zhen has seen them.

If the black shadow Luo Zhen saw in the Black Flame Mountains was really a demon, would it have run out from Danyun Pavilion?

But the seal of Danyun Pavilion has not been broken, and the demons are unlikely to escape, after all, they are suppressed by spiritual weapons.

But it is difficult for people without the top-grade Hunyuan Xinggang Sword to open the seal of Danyun Pavilion, and the Hunyuan Xinggang Sword is extremely rare.

From the shock of Shen Tu, the young master of the Sword Sect, when he saw Luo Zhen possessing a top-grade spiritual weapon, it can be seen that even for a super sect like them who have done great research on the Hunyuan Xinggang Sword, the top-grade Hunyuan Xinggang Sword is extremely rare.

Is there another place in the Black Flame Mountains where the demons are sealed?

It is not impossible! After all, Luo Zhen only explored a part of the Black Flame Mountains at the beginning, and there are still extremely vast areas that have not been explored.

But Luo Zhen did not gain anything good even in Danyun Pavilion, so he naturally thought that there was nothing good in the Black Flame Mountains.

So he took the Tyrant Grass, absorbed the spiritual veins, and left quickly.

If the demons really see the light of day again, there will probably be a lot of trouble.

But as the butcher said, Xuezhou City has a strong emperor in charge, and there is also a powerful city defense formation. At least in Xuezhou City, it is relatively safe.

Thinking about it, Luo Zhen was a little troubled. After all, he promised the elder of Danyun Pavilion that he would protect the Savage Continent when the demons saw the light of day again.

And now it happened that the demons were suspected to be haunting, which made Luo Zhen headache.

"Forget it, let's take care of ourselves first! If we don't improve our strength, it will be inconvenient to do anything!"

So Luo Zhen's good mood was gone in an instant because of the demons.

So Luo Zhen found an inn and prepared to stay.

But as soon as he entered the inn, he heard someone discussing the demons, which made Luo Zhen even more upset.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" The front desk of the inn saw Luo Zhen covering his head, and it seemed that something was wrong.

"It's okay, it's okay, open a room for me!"
