Chapter 126 Give you a banner for honesty
The auction started soon. The female host, who looked like a luxurious upgraded version of Tie Xiaoyan, came out. Her every smile and frown made many people lose their minds and cheer. Many female monks cast jealous glances at her.
Li Yanmo couldn't help scratching his head, "Does every chamber of commerce need to arrange a female host with a good figure and charming looks?"
"I don't know. It might be a rule set by some powerful person," Leng Ningshuang, who is also a woman, scratched her stomach through her clothes.
Soon, the luxuriously upgraded Tie Xiaoyan introduced the first auction item.
It was a two-meter-long silk thread.
"This is Xuanmeng silk. The grade is unknown, but the cultivation level of the person who refined it could not be lower than the Fusion Stage. It is even possible that it was refined by an immortal."
As soon as the word "immortal" was uttered, the entire auction hall fell silent. Li Yanmo, who had already stood up and was about to exclaim, immediately changed his posture, stretched, sat down again, and asked in a low voice.
"Why don't you guys react at all?"
"Ah? Of course it's because they always say it might be refined by immortals," Leng Ningshuang rolled her eyes.
Tie Xiaoyan, the deluxe upgraded version, seemed not to notice the dull silence and continued the introduction.
"This Xuanmeng Silk has extremely amazing effects, and its mystery may even touch the avenue!"
Deluxe Upgraded Version Tie Xiaoyan raised her hands and clapped, and the people from the Jinshi Chamber of Commerce came on stage and took turns placing the things they had brought on Xuan Mengsi.
First came the eggs, then the knife blades, then the tables and chairs, and finally a huge rock.
And all these things were hovering steadily above the Xuan Mengsi.
In order to prove the wonderfulness of this silk thread, the deluxe upgraded version of Tie Xiaoyan slapped the boulder in public, and the boulder on the Xuan Meng silk began to shake on the spot, but after just a few shakes, the boulder regained its balance.
And then the luxurious upgraded version of Tie Xiaoyan did an even more amazing thing. She lifted her slender fingers to take off a hairpin and gently placed the end on the Xuan Mengsi. When she loosened her fingers, the hairpin, with only the end touching the Xuan Mengsi, regained its balance in a tilted posture.
The monks at the auction table exclaimed in surprise. They could naturally see that the luxurious upgraded version of Tie Xiaoyan had not been tampered with in any way.
"Miss, if you can, you must take a picture of this thing!" Hua Youquan's eyes sparkled, "If my guess is correct, this might be a magic weapon made by a great man to comprehend the great way of balance!"
"Varied!?"
Tie Xiaoyan was stunned
A magic weapon of this level actually appeared at the Jinshi auction, and was placed in the first place. The foundation of the Jinshi Chamber of Commerce is probably comparable to those chambers of commerce in the big states!
Li Yanmo in the VIP box was also shocked, "Is this true?"
Leng Ningshuang, who was eating snacks, raised her head, squinted her eyes and looked for a while, then started to say "oh oh oh".
The tones of these "ohs" contained surprise, astonishment, and a hint of weirdness.
Li Yanmo, who had gradually been able to keep up with the pace of the Dayu Dynasty, immediately realized that Xuan Mengsi was probably not simple.
"This is a magic weapon designed by the Ministry of Industry for sleeping. It uses a very sophisticated space formation. No matter how ugly you sleep, you will not fall down. I heard that many female masters have bought this magic weapon to deceive their little apprentices." Leng Ningshuang pinched her chin and raised her eyebrows in surprise. "But this magic weapon was listed as a dangerous item by Emperor Yu a long time ago. I didn't expect it to be out there."
"Why would a magic weapon used for sleeping become a dangerous item?" Li Yanmo couldn't hold back, "Is it because it would destroy the fairy's image after it is exposed?"
"No, because the prototype of this magic weapon is the Heavenly Dragnet Formation. As long as 999 strands are gathered, a small Heavenly Dragnet Formation can be restored, and even the Tribulation Crossing Stage cannot escape. It was listed as a dangerous item because someone in the Ministry of Industry was curious about what would happen if he lay on several strands of Xuanmeng silk at the same time, so he made a bed with the Xuanmeng silk and ended up spending the rest of his life on that bed."
Li Yanmo was in a complicated mood, "Is there no way to break the formation?"
"Of course there was, but that person wanted to use this method to take a paid vacation, so he pretended to be trapped in bed, and then Emperor Yu sent people to keep an eye on him, but that person never revealed a flaw until his death. In the end, one of them died on the bed, and the other died beside the bed," Leng Ningshuang picked up the sign, "Although there is only one, it is better to take it back."
The starting price for Xuan Mengsi is 20 million low-grade spirit stones, and each bid increase cannot be lower than 1 million low-grade spirit stones.
Leng Ningshuang started with 80 million low-grade spirit stones, which scared a group of cultivators to give up on the spot. However, this not only did not scare the people in other VIP boxes, it even aroused their desire to fight for it.
"Ninety million low-grade spirit stones!"
"One hundred million low-grade spirit stones!"
"One hundred and thirty million low-grade spirit stones!"
Leng Ningshuang was a little annoyed by being called by others, so she raised the sign on the spot.
"Two hundred million low-grade spirit stones."
Deluxe Upgraded Version Tie Xiaoyan's eyes lit up.
The first auction item sold for 200 million low-grade spirit stones, which broke the previous record, but Tie Xiaoyan's intuition told her that the potential of this auction item was more than that, so she did not knock the hammer after a brief pause, but asked loudly again.
"Two hundred million low-grade spirit stones! This item is most likely made by an immortal. A magic weapon that can comprehend the great way of balance has cost two hundred million low-grade spirit stones!"
Under the instigation of the luxurious upgraded version of Tie Xiaoyan, someone really couldn't help it and made another bid.
"Two hundred and ten million low-grade goods!"
Leng Ningshuang rolled her eyes and was about to raise her sign to increase the price when a strong aura of incarnation came from the VIP box next door, along with a sinister warning.
"Junior! I am the Grand Elder of the Poison Split Sect! If you don't want to die on the streets, shut up!"
Li Yanmo was horrified, and the face of the incarnation cultivator from the Jinshi Chamber of Commerce who was waiting respectfully beside him turned pale. Leng Ningshuang hadn't said anything yet, and the incarnation cultivator had already run out with a bang. Soon, the great elder of the Poison Split Sect knelt in the corner of the box, with his hands raised above his head, cold sweat on his forehead, and he didn't even dare to breathe.
"Sir, this person comes to the Jinshi Chamber of Commerce for the first time today and doesn't know the rules. We in the Jinshi Chamber of Commerce hate people who bully others the most!"
The Divine Transformation cultivator nodded and bowed to Leng Ningshuang to apologize, while sending a message to the luxurious upgraded version of Tie Xiaoyan.
The female host, who had wanted to raise the price of Xuanmeng silk, suddenly changed her expression and spoke righteously.
"The bidder just now violated the rules of our industry and lost his eligibility to bid. Congratulations to this young man for winning this magic weapon with 200 million low-grade spirit stones!"
Li Yanmo blinked, remembered something, and looked at Leng Ningshuang, "Will you pay?"
"…Prefect Huang will present a banner to the Jinshi Chamber of Commerce for returning lost property."
The Divine Transformation cultivator had no words to express his grievances. Under Li Yanmo's gaze, the Divine Transformation cultivator ended up both crying and laughing.
"What we at the Jinshi Chamber of Commerce love most is the silk banner!"
