Then she would play with her.
Ice grass is a healing elixir for fire-attributed magical instruments. It is also very effective in relieving obsession. However, due to its rarity and difficulty in picking, it is quite expensive.
Lingbaozhai took out three plants at once, which showed its strength.
However, Ice Grass can only be effective when it is refined into pills, and it is extremely difficult to refine with a very high failure rate. Therefore, usually only great alchemists will buy it, and it is useless for ordinary cultivators.
Therefore, there are very few people bidding, and if the price is too high, they will generally give up.
The starting price of Ice Grass was one hundred high-quality spirit stones. Before that, there were four other people participating in the auction.
But when Sheng Yinyin raised the price to one hundred and fifty, three people chose to withdraw.
Perhaps he felt that the price was beyond his psychological budget, or perhaps he did not want to offend the Wanyin Sect behind Sheng Yinyin because of the Ice Grass.
"One hundred and sixty." Another monk gritted his teeth and shouted.
Young Master Zi waved the folding fan in his hand and chuckled, "Anyone else want to bid? Ice grass is very rare."
Fan Li said, "One hundred and seventy."
Sheng Yinyin immediately followed up: "One hundred and ninety!"
"One hundred and ninety-one times." Young Master Zi looked at the other two.
The monk who had just spoken stopped talking and sighed with his head down.
"One hundred and ninety-two times." Young Master Zi shifted his gaze to Fan Li again.
Fan Li kept silent and had no intention of bargaining again.
A hint of disappointment flashed across Young Master Zi's eyes, but he finally dropped the hammer.
"One hundred and ninety-third time, congratulations to this girl for successfully photographing the ice grass."
Sheng Yinyin was stunned.
No, Fan Li gave up so quickly?
She was planning to give him a taste of his own medicine! It was useless for her to get the ice grass!
Sheng Yinyin clenched her fists, feeling frustrated again.
But the more this happened, the more she became dissatisfied.
Fan Li didn't care what she thought and continued to close his eyes and rest.
Fan Li didn't really want the ice grass.
She just didn't want her purpose to be too obvious.
She noticed something unusual during the fourth round of the auction.
Among the hundreds of guests, there are many people who are from Lingbaozhai.
They acted covertly, but did not escape Fan Li's eyes.
There are usually two types of people who come to the auction house: one is those who have learned about the auction items in advance, come with a purpose, and have prepared a sufficient budget; the other is those who come to pick up bargains.
The agents arranged by the auction house are aimed at the former.
They hid in the guest seats, keeping their eyes and ears open, like poisonous snakes waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Once they know what you want, when that item comes up, they will come in droves and bid up the price like crazy.
The more you want it, the more it costs you.
Merchants are so cunning and treacherous, and they are full of tricks. The same is true in the world of cultivation.
After seeing through this, Fan Li immediately changed his strategy and planned to make a feint to the east and attack in the west.
She would pretend to be the second type of person, competing for something she was interested in, and withdrawing appropriately if the price was too high.
It is not only about defending Lingbaozhai, but also about being wary of those evil people in the dark.
She wants to minimize the risk as much as possible.
Sheng Yinyin might be a good shield.
In the following auctions, Fan Li would pop up from time to time, and whenever she was around, Sheng Yinyin would stay with her.
In this way, everyone with a discerning eye would know that they had a grudge against each other, and Lingbaozhai would be happy to see it happen.
They are just curious about Fan Li's identity.
How could she, a person sitting in an ordinary seat, offend the monk sitting in the first row?
After the previous confrontations, Sheng Yinyin had learned her lesson. Even if she wanted to raise the price with Fan Li, she would not raise it too much.
Seeing that Sheng Yinyin was being led by her without realizing it, Fan Li couldn't be happy and her heart was heavy.
The old Yuanying monster had not made any move, and there were less than ten treasures left, including the treasure map she wanted.
If the other party also came for the treasure map, she could only give in.
Otherwise, once she leaves Lingbaozhai, she will die.
Well, now that things have come to this, we can only take it one step at a time.
Sheng Yinyin turned around and saw Fan Li's serious expression, thinking that she had successfully made things difficult for Fan Li.
Thinking of this, Sheng Yinyin felt refreshed all over.
Bixi reminded weakly: "Senior Sister, we only have more than 800 high-grade spirit stones left."
The smile on Sheng Yinyin's face froze a little.
"What, only over 800 left?!"
Bixi nodded helplessly, counting how many useless things she had just bought in order to compete with Fan Li.
Sheng Yinyin's face turned pale.
"Abi, why didn't you stop me in time?!" Sheng Yinyin blamed Bixi.
Bixi was inconsolable: "You told me to shut up."
Sheng Yinyin choked.
There are still eight hundred left, which should be enough... At worst, she can just bring out Lingyin Zhenren, and see who dares to snatch it from her!
Thinking of this, Sheng Yinyin calmed herself down and her expression regained her former confidence.
The auction lasted from morning to evening, and there were still many people sitting in the audience.
Three finale treasures will be selected in each auction.
The finale treasure may not be the best of all the auction items, but it always arouses endless expectations.
By now, Fan Li could no longer laugh, because the treasure map she wanted was actually one of the final items.
Young Master Zi said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. The three most precious treasures of this auction are about to appear."
"The next treasure to be auctioned was created by a powerful sound cultivator in the past. It is an extremely rare high-level technique."
Sheng Yinyin was breathing rapidly, she gripped the armrest nervously, and leaned forward slightly.
She finally got what she wanted, the Dream Soul Music Score!
Sheng Yinyin sat in the first row, her desire written all over her face, and Master Zi could see through it at a glance.
Young Master Zi curled his lips and said slowly, "The Dream Soul Music Score was created by a powerful music practitioner in the past. It has a powerful hallucinogenic effect and is an absolutely high-level technique. Lingbaozhai is fortunate to have collected the complete music score. The starting price is 500 high-grade spirit stones!"
Sheng Yinyin was the first to bid: "Five hundred and fifty!"
Everyone present knew that she was a disciple of the Wanyin Sect. It was not difficult to guess that she came here just for the Dream Soul Music Score, and was determined to get it.
Just when Sheng Yinyin thought that no one would compete with her, bidding sounds were heard from all directions.
"Six hundred spirit stones!"
"Seven hundred spirit stones!"
"......"
"Two thousand spirit stones!!"
In just a few breaths, the price of the Dream Soul Music Score increased several times.
Sheng Yinyin's face changed drastically, and she collapsed completely in the chair. She didn't even have time to move her master out.
What bad luck! Why are there suddenly so many people who want the Dream Soul music score?
Two thousand spirit stones were completely beyond her budget!
No, it was enough, it’s all Fan Li’s fault!
Fan Li naturally didn't know that Sheng Yinyin had pinned her mistake on her. She glanced indifferently at the bidders.
They are all Lingbaozhai’s agents.
It seems that Lingbaozhai is determined to eat Sheng Yinyin.
However, Sheng Yinyin has not spoken for a long time, it seems that she lacks the strength.
Fan Li was a little curious. Lingbaozhai was raising the price crazily. If Sheng Yinyin couldn't afford it, wouldn't it be a waste of money?
With such a high price, other cultivators are not stupid and it is impossible for them to buy it.
It's not worth it.
The servant of Lingbaozhai bent down and trotted to Sheng Yinyin, and whispered something to her.
Sheng Yinyin's eyes lit up, and she shouted proudly, "I'll pay three thousand!"
There was an uproar.
The people who were bidding frantically just now suddenly stopped bidding, and the Dream Soul Music Score was successfully won by Sheng Yinyin.
Fan Li suddenly understood.
In comparison, she is still too young.
How could Lingbaozhai do business at a loss? She almost forgot that Lingbaozhai could lend money on the spot.
Just as Fan Li thought, Sheng Yinyin dared to continue bidding after borrowing spiritual stones from Lingbaozhai.
Sheng Yinyin was cheated out of a huge sum of money by Lingbaozhai, and she still wanted to thank Lingbaozhai for its timely help.
Lingbaozhai kills two birds with one stone. It's really insidious.
There were many smart and quick-witted monks among the present, who had long seen that Lingbaozhai was setting a trap for Sheng Yinyin. When this little lamb shouted out the sky-high price of three thousand, the monks couldn't help but sigh.
The little girl still has too little social experience.
Sheng Yinyin obviously hasn't thought of this yet. Her mind is very straightforward and she doesn't understand these twists and turns.
She breathed a sigh of relief and slumped down in the chair like a boneless person.
Just get the Dream Soul Music Score. This is the task assigned to her by her master, and she must not let her master down.
There was a little more pity in Fan Li's eyes when he looked at Sheng Yinyin.
Young Master Zi clapped his hands, and the servant brought a palm-sized stone slab.
The monks' attention was instantly drawn to it.
Fan Li's breathing stagnated, his fingers curled up slightly, and his eyes were fixed on the thing in the servant's hand.
Appeared!
The incomplete part of the treasure map!
