Chapter 287 Are you questioning me?
Lu Fan's plain voice lingered over Beiluo Lake.
It was not loud, but full of calmness and composure, just like the casual chat of the kid next door leaning close to your ear.
However, every practitioner on all the flower boats on Beiluo Lake felt a chill in their hearts and stretched their necks to stare at the wooden tray carried by the little Yinglong.
It has to be said that the world has been looking forward to this auction for a long time.
How could the world not be looking forward to the auction held by Baiyujing? In today's cultivation world, Baiyujing represents authority. The mysterious Baiyujing and Young Master Lu, whose strength is impossible to see through, make the world full of curiosity.
Therefore, everyone is looking forward to the items in this auction.
What Bai Yujing can come up with must not be something ordinary or common, right?
Many flower boats.
The Overlord narrowed his eyes and calmly poured a glass of wine.
Tan Tai Xuan's breathing became slightly rapid, and he couldn't help but exert force on his palms that were pressed on the small table in the flower boat.
Tang Xiansheng looked like he was about to be buried, but in his slightly opened eyes, there was a sharp and incisive look. It was obvious that he was also curious and expectant.
Lu Fan left no room for suspense and directly burned the cloth on the wooden tray.
As Lu Fan's spiritual awareness gradually increases, his control over the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Fire and the Bone Phantom Fire has become more and more handy.
"The first item of this Baiyujing auction is the Qi Gathering Pill."
Lu Fan's calm voice rang out.
However, on the wooden tray carried by little Yinglong, there was a jade bottle sitting quietly.
"This jade bottle contains five Qi Gathering Pills."
"Medicine pills are divided into grades. The Qi Gathering Pill is a first-grade pill that can gather three patterns. Although the grade is low, it is an excellent cultivation resource for the Qi Dan realm."
Lu Fan said slowly.
After Lu Fan finished speaking, the air in the flower boat was dull for a few seconds, and then it slightly exploded.
"Qi Gathering Pill?"
"I seem to have heard of it... Is it the thing that Master Lu's little maid eats like a candy pill every day?"
"Haha, I admit that Bai Yujing is very strong, but isn't it too much of a disrespect to us to auction off the candy pills of a maidservant?"
On the flower boat, the sound of whispers continued.
Many people even uttered wild words that they would never buy it!
After all, they were all prominent people, so how could they spend a huge sum of money to buy the sugar pills from Young Master Lu’s maid?
On the Empress's flower boat.
The empress raised her red lips slightly and laughed so hard that her body shook. While laughing, she put her big hands on Ni Yu's head and scratched it randomly, which made Ni Yu pout in dissatisfaction.
What happened to the sugar pills?
The pills she made with her own skills can't be eaten as sugar pills? Do these people think that this Qi Gathering Pill is cheap?
Haven’t you seen that guy Lao Jing? He can lick one pill for half a year!
Lu Fan didn't pay any attention to these people's whispers.
"A bottle of five Qi Gathering Pills, starting price is one Spirit Stone."
Lu Fan said calmly.
After the words fell.
The entire flower boat was silent for a long time...
Everyone seems to be weighing the pros and cons.
After all, everyone didn't have many spirit stones in their hands. Because Tan Tai Xuan was the first to exchange five spirit stones, most people who followed exchanged for the guaranteed five spirit stones.
Many heads of aristocratic families were also hesitant.
After a long time, someone spoke.
"Young Master Lu, I am willing to give you a spirit stone!"
This man was dressed in a blue shirt and looked quite elegant, but he was gritting his teeth, as if he had made some important decision.
The eyes of many family heads fell on this person.
"It's the great family of Dongyang County, the Zhou family!"
“Hehe… Although Dongyang County has the Dragon Gate, the real dragon of the Dragon Gate is violent and rampant, and anyone who goes there will die. Therefore, there are fewer cultivators in Dongyang County than in other places…”
"The Zhou family is planning to buy Qi Gathering Pills to lay a foundation for the future generations of the family."
The eyes of many family heads lit up, they smiled, and analyzed the Zhou family's purpose.
Lu Fan leaned against the wheelchair, tapping his fingers on the wheelchair armrests: "Is there anyone else bidding?"
"If you don't have any, I will count to three and you can't make any more bids."
Lu Fan said.
The words fell.
Many family heads who had been gossiping began to speak up.
"It doesn't matter whether it gathers energy or not. The main thing is that the head of this family likes sweets... So, Young Master Lu, I am willing to give you two spirit stones."
As soon as this person opened his mouth, all the flower boats were in an uproar.
The Zhou family patriarch looked at this man angrily.
With a snort of anger, he flicked his sleeves and sat on the flower boat, causing the boat to sway and create ripples.
Others chose not to compete.
Therefore, this bottle of Qi Gathering Pill belongs to the second head of the aristocratic family.
Lu Fan raised his hand and flicked it.
Suddenly, the jade bottle containing the Qi Gathering Pill floated steadily towards the man.
The man took it with a smile on his face and bowed to Lu Fan.
And Lu Fan took away two spirit stones without any hesitation.
One spirit stone is worth 100,000 taels, two spirit stones... that's 200,000 taels.
Although the head of this noble family had a calm smile on his face, his heart was bleeding.
Five pills...two hundred thousand, forty thousand taels each!
It is really more expensive than gold!
As the Qi Gathering Pill that the Zhou family patriarch had his eyes on was snatched away, the atmosphere between the flower boats became tense, and many of the aristocratic family heads seemed to sense the atmosphere of competition.
The corners of Lu Fan's mouth slightly raised. This was exactly the feeling he wanted.
He tapped the hand guard with his fingers, and the little Yinglong dived into the lake with a thud and disappeared.
After a while, a second wooden plate floated over gracefully.
Lu Fan raised his hand and burned the cloth.
"The second auction item is a yellow-grade lower-grade spiritual tool made by the weapon refining master Gongshu Yu... a knife."
Lu Fan said.
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere on the flower boat became lively again.
They are all familiar with the concept of spiritual tools.
Weapons that can channel spiritual energy and enhance the power of spiritual energy are called spiritual tools.
Just like Master Lu's chessboard, Jing Yue's sword, etc...
"A knife?"
"There's no name yet... Young Master Lu is a bit casual, at least give me a name."
"A low-grade yellow spiritual tool... doesn't deserve a name."
The heads of many noble families looked at each other, their eyes seemed to speak.
On the flower boat in the distance, Ye Shoudao, who had been drinking, had his eyes flickering and seemed to be interested.
"The spiritual tools that Master Lu mentioned should be what we call magic tools..."
Ye Shoudao said.
Naturally, he is interested in knives.
As Lu Fan burned the cloth, revealing the shining, brilliant blade in the wooden tray, the interest in Ye Shoudao's eyes disappeared.
"Ninth-grade magical weapon... boring."
Ye Shoudao continued to pour wine and started drinking.
Nie Zhangqing's Dragon Slaying Sword is interesting. It is a ninth-grade magical weapon and is not worthy of the attention of Ye Shoudao, who is at the Infant Transformation stage.
However, the heads of the noble families were completely furious.
Tan Tai Xuan and Mo Ju looked at each other.
They don’t need the Qi Gathering Pill because they have the Dragon Gate.
but……
Spiritual tools... they don't have any.
If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to find the next one.
After all, no one knows when Baiyujing’s next auction will be.
"This knife starts at two spirit stones."
Lu Fan said.
The words fell.
Immediately, a family owner made an offer.
As soon as he finished speaking, Tan Tai Xuan also made a bid.
"Three spirit stones."
Overlord glanced at Tan Tai Xuan with interest.
The Overlord did not make an offer. He did not like the knife, so what was the point of bidding for it?
In Overlord's opinion, even spiritual tools still depend on who is using them.
The bidding continues.
Tan Tai Xuan's bid did not deter the surrounding families, and the price quickly rose to five spirit stones.
Five hundred thousand taels, in exchange for a knife...
Is it worth it?
Many people were hesitant, even Tan Tai Xuan was unwilling to continue filming.
because……
He didn't know if there would be any other better items for auction next.
Tang Xiansheng was making tea by himself while Tang Yimo was sitting cross-legged beside him.
"Yi Mo, make an offer."
Tang Xiansheng spoke in a hoarse voice.
Tang Yimo did not hesitate and immediately said: "Six spirit stones."
As soon as the words fell, the family head who offered four spirit stones had red eyes. He had already offered 500,000 taels, and Tang Xiansheng actually raised the price? Is he still human? ! The family head's eyes were red as he said, "Seven!"
The noble families on the surrounding flower boats all gasped.
This is a huge investment.
Tang Xiansheng smiled, took a sip of tea slowly, and slowly opened his eyes.
"I have kept a low profile for such a long time... Have you all forgotten where I, Tang Xiansheng, came from?"
"I, Nanjun... am short of money?"
The words fell.
Tang Yimo raised the price expressionlessly.
Eight spirit stones were used to obtain this lower-grade yellow spiritual tool.
Compared to the Qi Gathering Pill, this spiritual tool is considered to have a considerable premium.
Tan Tai Xuan leaned against the board, the corners of his mouth twitched...
What Tang Xiansheng said was right, Nanjun... was rich enough to rival a country, and the money... might really be not short of it.
Many heads of noble families also felt threatened.
But...what can they do?
Having money is also a kind of strength.
…
Wolong Ridge.
Nine gloomy doors stand tall.
A bird was flying across the sky, but it flew above the gate of the Nine Hells, and then fell down from there as if struck by lightning.
The Xiang family army completely blocked off Wolong Ridge and surrounded it tightly.
However, the commotion here was so big that it could no longer be concealed.
Spies from various forces learned the news and spread the news that a new immortal secret realm had appeared in Wolong Ridge.
Birds are flying constantly.
And in Xiang’s army.
Some practitioners refused to believe in evil and walked towards the gate of the first hell.
Compared with other portals, the First Prison gave them much less repulsion and pressure.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
As for the black stone tablet standing in the center.
It exudes endless evil, making people afraid to even look directly at it.
The practitioners of Xiang family army continued to resist the pressure and headed towards the gate of the first prison.
However, the pressure was growing, and many Xiang family soldiers were blown away by the terrifying force. The practitioners who fell to the ground all coughed up blood.
However... finally, a cultivator touched the edge of the gate to the first prison.
The moment your skin touches it, all the stress disappears.
This practitioner fell to the ground and gasped for breath.
The young men of the Xiang family army, who were a mile away, clenched their fists when they saw their brothers touching the door.
This young man from the Xiang family army, who carried the hopes of the entire village, bravely pushed open the bronze door and stepped inside.
…
Beiluo City, by the lake in the city.
The sound of people gasping for air could be heard from among the flower boats.
The Overlord's hand holding the cup couldn't help but tremble, and some wine even dripped out of it.
Just because Lu Fan announced the news of the third auction item.
"The fifth auction item is a third-grade elixir, the Body Tempering Pill."
Lu Fan said lazily.
"The Body Tempering Pill, when taken by a person at the peak of Qi Dan, will fully enter the body. If taken by a person at the peak of Ti Tan, it can assist in tempering the body and increase the probability of entering the Jin Dan Tian Suo realm."
Lu Fan said.
Lu Fan didn't say what the probability was, but when the news came out, it was like a storm.
In fact, people knew the value of Body Tempering Pills long before.
After all, Ni Yu actually triggered a pill calamity while refining the elixir on the island. Could an elixir that could cause a calamity be an ordinary elixir?
Compared with it, the Qi Gathering Pill was simply crushed into slag.
"Body Tempering Pill, starting price is ten spirit stones."
Lu Fan said.
As the words fell, everyone on the flower boat began to breathe faster.
Du Longyang was tempted when he heard about the effects of the Body Tempering Pill.
"The effect of this Body Tempering Pill... seems to be much better than our Tianyuan Foundation Building Pill."
"Of course this is nonsense. The Foundation Building Pill is only for the Foundation Building Stage. When you reach the Golden Core Stage, the Foundation Building Pill is too unpalatable even if it's a sugar pill."
The Empress spoke.
"This body-tempering pill is effective for the Golden Core Heaven Lock, and... after being mixed by me and Xiao Ni, it has been improved to have several different flavors, and these flavors do not affect the effectiveness of the pill. What do you think, is it expensive to sell this pill for ten spirit stones?"
The empress raised her red lips.
At this moment, everyone on the flower boat has begun to exchange spirit stones.
"Ten!"
The Overlord's deep voice sounded.
When the Overlord spoke, all the heads of the noble families on the flower boats fell silent.
The King of Xiliang...spoke.
Do others dare to rob? The reputation of the Overlord is still there.
Tan Tai Xuan did not back down this time: "Eleven."
Tang Xiansheng narrowed his eyes and smiled indifferently: "Twelve."
Overlord said expressionlessly: "Thirteen."
Many heads of aristocratic families were shocked.
Xiliang, Daxuan...Nanjun, these three big guys actually formed a silent confrontation in this way.
Thirteen spirit stones, that's 1.3 million taels...
The price is really not cheap.
However, this was just the beginning. Many noble families joined the auction, and the price of a Body Tempering Pill soon soared to twenty spirit stones.
Sima Qingshan sat upright on the flower boat, while An Miaoyu, wearing a red cloak, also sat quietly beside him.
Took a sip of wine.
Sima Qingshan glanced at An Miaoyu's face with her red lips pursed, and there seemed to be a hint of envy on her face.
Sima Qingshan's hand trembled slightly as he drank.
"Do you want the Body Tempering Pill?"
Sima Qingshan asked softly.
An Miaoyu was stunned, her face slightly reddened, and she quickly waved her hands.
She doesn't want it, and...can't afford it.
This body-tempering pill is too expensive.
Sima Qingshan smiled and said, "If you like it, Master will try his best to take a picture of it."
Suddenly, Sima Qingshan looked at Lu Fan: "Young Master Lu."
The surrounding bidding seemed to quiet down.
"explain."
Lu Fan looked at Sima Qingshan and said calmly.
Sima Qingshan stood up, seeming a little embarrassed, but still bowed to Lu Fan.
"Master Lu, can I exchange my painting for spirit stones?"
Sima Qingshan said seriously.
The people around couldn't help but laugh.
One spirit stone is worth 100,000 taels. Does this poor painter think his painting can be worth this much? Lu Fan raised his eyebrows, pondered for a while, looked at Sima Qingshan, and said with interest: "If your painting is worth this price, of course it can be."
Sima Qingshan took a deep breath.
After that...
He took out a long cloth bag wrapped in a scroll from the bookcase behind him.
He pulled out the scroll from the cloth bag.
He threw the scroll to Lu Fan.
"Master Lu, how much spiritual stones do you think this painting is worth?"
Lu Fan raised his hand, and the scroll hung in the air, slowly unfolding.
Many heads of noble families around were looking at the painting with curiosity, but everyone was confused because it was just an ordinary painting.
Although Du Longyang and others felt that this painting was unusual, they could not tell what was unusual about it.
Lu Fan rolled up the painting, put it away, and handed it to Ning Zhao.
"Keep the painting and give him 100 spirit stones."
Lu Fan's words fell.
Ning Zhao was stunned, and felt that the scroll in his hand seemed to become a little hot.
A painting, one hundred spirit stones... ten million taels? Sima Qingshan looked calm, for he knew how much the painting was worth.
Du Longyang and others also felt incredible.
One of the heads of a noble family couldn't help but speak.
"Master Lu...I'm afraid this is against the rules?"
"A painting...why should it be exchanged for 100 spirit stones?"
The head of this noble family was quite indignant.
After all, his aristocratic family assets were not that high.
Lu Fan leaned against the wheelchair, glanced at the head of the noble family, and laughed: "Are you questioning me?"
The words fell.
The commotion among the flower boats came to an abrupt end.
The head of the noble family who spoke had beads of sweat rolling down his forehead.
Deep in his eyes, there was a hint of fear...
Did he offend Young Master Lu? Who doesn't know that Beiluo Lu Ping'an is petty? If he offends him, he's probably in trouble! Lu Fan's face was calm, and he tapped the wheelchair guard with his finger.
People only see a flash before their eyes.
The flower boat of the patriarch of the noble family was empty, and the patriarch of the noble family had been moved outside the city of Beiluo.
Outside the city.
The head of the noble family felt a chill on his back and felt that he was lucky.
He left in a hurry.
He didn't dare to enter the city. With Lu Ping'an's temper, if he really entered the city, his legs would probably be broken by a hammer.
The painting given by Sima Qingshan was no ordinary painting.
Instead, the painting that Sima Qingshan sketched based on the "Creation Picture" contains subtle traces of Taoism.
If you continue to comprehend it, you will definitely be able to understand the meaning of Tao.
This is also the reason why Lu Fan’s asking price is so high.
One hundred spirit stones were given to Sima Qingshan, who smiled and started bidding for the Body Tempering Pills.
The Body Tempering Pill is indeed very popular.
Prices are going up.
final……
It was Sima Qingshan who bought the Body Tempering Pill and spent fifty spirit stones.
In other words, one Body Tempering Pill costs five million taels.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a sky-high price.
However, this price is not high in the eyes of the world.
One reason is that everyone didn’t bring much silver this time, and the second reason is that there will be other auction items later.
The Body Tempering Pill was only the fifth item for auction.
What would the other auction items be? They also analyzed Lu Fan's auction style at this moment.
The auction items are ranked according to value, from low to high...
Just when everyone was thinking about it.
Lu Fan, who was leaning on the wheelchair, spoke with a smile.
He raised his head and looked towards the direction of Wolong Ridge with a smile on his lips.
"Next, it's the sixth auction item..."
"This auction item is quite...special."
