Chapter 197 Orc Ling'er
The orc girl is named Ling'er, and she is twelve years old.
She was just a little snake when she was born, and it was not until she was six years old that she showed the half-human, half-snake form.
A Niang was very worried. She said that Ling'er could live well either as a snake or as a human.
But this half-human, half-snake appearance cannot be revealed in front of people.
So Ling'er's parents took her to the depths of Wanjie Mountain.
Remind her not to let other people or animals know that she has spiritual roots!
The family agreed to wait until Ling'er had cultivated to the point where she could transform freely before coming out.
Although there are many monsters in the depths of Wanjie Mountain, Daddy has great magical powers and can protect her and her mother.
One day someone rushed into their cave and killed Daddy, and in order to protect her, Mom also blew herself up into the Yuandan.
Unfortunately, the opponent was too powerful, and A Niang's self-destruction could not seriously injure him.
Finally, Ling'er, who had just lost her parents, was brought here.
At this moment, she was just kneeling on the ground, letting the people upstairs and below raise her price higher and higher.
From the time a group of people started shouting out prices, until now only the occasional quotes could be heard from certain private rooms upstairs.
The bidding continued, and a look of satisfaction appeared on the auctioneer's face.
Ling'er was getting more and more scared. She was not an ignorant child. Her father and mother had taught her many things.
The higher the price gets, the stronger the other party becomes, and her chances of escaping will naturally be smaller.
Zhou Yan looked at the girl with some sympathy, "How can an orc be sold at such a high price? I wonder where he will be sold to? Poor girl~"
Bai Qi said, "That female cultivator with only one spiritual root can be sold at a very high price in Luding Building."
The other people turned around to look at him, and Bai Qi waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't get me wrong, I heard it from others in the market."
Ji Qingling felt really upset, "It shouldn't just be because of her single spiritual root, it must have a lot to do with her orc identity."
At this time, the sound of bidding came from the box upstairs again, and Ji Qingling stood up.
"I'm going out first. See you at the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion."
She couldn't stop this human trafficking, nor did she want to just watch it happen.
So Ji Qingling chose to turn a blind eye and left.
After leaving the box, she first asked the waiter for directions and took out the martial arts skills she had auctioned.
After leaving the Treasure Pavilion, just stroll around the street.
Because this auction was held with great fanfare, many monks who did not have admission tickets also came to join in the fun.
There were a lot of people on the street, and after Ji Qingling ate at a few stalls, he felt better.
Soon she found the place she was looking for, without asking where she came from! She entered the store, and just like the one in Kunlun, there was no one else except a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
She took out a Xuantian Soul-Releasing Fruit and handed it over.
The monk picked it up and took a look at it, then his eyes lit up and he handed the thing back to Ji Qingling.
"Please come in, fellow Taoist."
Ji Qingling followed him to a small house with simple furnishings, where an old man in the Nascent Soul stage sat.
The foundation-building monk retreated.
The old man smiled and said, "Young man, please sit down."
Maybe the things Ji Qingling sold last time were too ordinary, so the transaction was done directly in the hall.
I didn't expect that I could enter a private room this time, and be received by Yuanying Daojun.
It seems that the Xuantian Soul-Ronging Fruit can be sold for a good price.
She sat down opposite the old man and handed the thing over.
After carefully identifying it, the other party replied in a more friendly tone, "The ten thousand year old Xuantian Soul Fusion Fruit is rare to see."
I didn't expect that not asking where you come from really means not asking where you come from.
It turned out that Ji Qingling had also prepared an explanation about how he got this thing by accident.
Who knows, no one needs to ask.
"Thirty thousand middle-grade spirit stones."
The price was about the same as Ji Qingling had guessed. A thousand-year-old spiritual herb had just appeared in the Treasure Pavilion, and its price was indeed higher than here.
But the commissions taken by the auction house are also unfair.
Although there are fewer spirit stones, it is faster and more convenient without asking where they come from.
Seeing that Ji Qingling had no objection to the price, the old man took out a wooden sign.
"My friend, you can take the wooden sign to any treasure pavilion in Jiuzhou Continent to extract spirit stones."
…
Feelings are all your family's business, right? This is a real good trade! Ji Qingling was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something, "Senior, why is the bid so high for the orc with a single spiritual root that is being auctioned at the Treasure Pavilion today?"
"My friend, are you talking about the snake demon with a single spiritual root of the wood element?"
How can it be called a snake demon? If you call it a snake demon, does that mean you don’t feel guilty about buying and selling children?
"Exactly."
“Not all orcs can practice cultivation. Most orcs use the cultivation method of monsters. Their advantage is that they have a long lifespan like monsters.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
But this snake demon has spiritual roots, and it is a single spiritual root. If it can still have the lifespan of a demon beast~"
The old man didn't finish his words, but Ji Qingling understood.
She thanked the old man and left the house. The foundation-building monk was waiting outside the door.
He led Ji Qingling to the exit and said, "These are all exits and ordinary alleys. You can go out without worry."
Ji Qingling looked around and chose the one closest to her among several passages.
In fact, when she was making the choice just now, she asked Amu to find an opportunity to touch the other person's body.
Amu felt that the other party had no ill intentions, so she randomly chose an exit.
After all, it is such a huge amount of spirit stones. It would be painful if someone robbed it.
The moment she came out, she also put on an invisibility talisman just in case.
Fortunately, there was nothing unusual and she returned to the Treasure Pavilion safely.
Before the others came out, Ji Qingling walked around the Treasure Pavilion.
If you really want to buy equipment, the Treasure Pavilion is indeed the right place.
Her Panlong Arm had been broken before, so she still needed to replenish her defensive equipment.
It can save your life at critical moments. If the spirit stones allow, it is best to equip your whole body with various defensive treasures.
With these spirit stones on him, Ji Qingling felt more confident.
He said to the waiter, "I want to see the defensive treasure."
"Fellow Daoist, please follow me."
She took Ji Qingling to the second floor.
The one who received her here was a Jindan monk.
This is the treatment of having spiritual stones.
The Jindan cultivator asked about her requirements and recommended several suitable ones to Ji Qingling.
One of the lower-grade treasures is the Magic Boots, which contain the spiritual energy of the earth. When worn, one can move as fast as the wind without hindrance.
It has a great effect on boosting the monk's speed, and also has a defensive effect.
The reason for recommending it is simple. When you can't win, running fast can also save your life.
The other one is also a lower-grade treasure - the Glazed Cold Jade Belt, a belt made of ice jade that has condensed for a hundred thousand years.
It increases defense during normal combat and can resist a blow from a Nascent Soul cultivator when in danger.
It can also dissolve the damage caused by icy air, and is very suitable for wearing in the northern border.
Ji Qingling wants both!
If she can't win, these magical boots can help her escape, and if she catches up, these glazed jade belt can help her block a fatal blow.
Recommendation tickets and monthly tickets, thank you!
