Chapter 049: Overwhelming
Shen Wuyan had never realized that his eldest disciple was so thoughtful. He was filled with gratitude. He took the pastry and took a bite, and found that the pastry was indeed good.
He maintained his deity's posture and nodded, "It is indeed unique, soft and sticky, sweet but not greasy, fragrant and beautiful. What's even more rare is that this pastry also contains spiritual power, which is interesting."
The little squirrel who had been staring at the food heard Shen Wuyan say this and squeaked anxiously: What about me? What about me? Immortal Venerable, the little squirrel wants to eat too...
Shen Wuyan picked up a piece of food and fed it to the little squirrel. The little squirrel's small black eyes lit up when he saw the food, but...
But Xiao Jing stopped him midway, and the little squirrel's eyes dimmed instantly:
""
Xiao Jing took the cake from Shen Wuyan's hand and bit it, then picked up two more peanuts and handed them to the little squirrel, "Peel them yourself."
Although they were just two peanuts, the little squirrel was small-hearted and easily satisfied. In a flash, the weather turned from cloudy to sunny, and the squirrel happily held the peanuts and started to crunch them.
Dugu City Lord smiled and said, "This little thing is quite good."
Shen Wuyan glanced at the little squirrel and said, "Mianmian is very spiritual."
The Lord of Dugu City said with a smile: "To be able to follow the Immortal Venerable, even a stone should have spirituality."
Shen Wuyan: "The city lord is praising you..."
Shen Wuyan and the city lord officially praised each other, and finally the auction began.
After the host completely heated up the atmosphere, the first item came on stage.
That is a piece of precious armor.
The host introduced it passionately: "Although this armor has some defects, as long as it is slightly repaired, it will be invulnerable to swords and guns when worn..."
Shen Wuyan's eyes lit up instantly.
The city lord thought Shen Wuyan was interested in the item, so he said, "If the Immortal Venerable likes it, please tell me and I will let them keep it."
Shen Wuyan thanked him: "The fun of the auction is that everyone competes for something, so I am grateful for the city lord's kindness."
The city lord no longer insisted, and the bidding began while the two were talking.
"Sixty Spiritual Stones."
"One hundred spirit stones."
"One hundred and twenty spirit stones."
Soon the first lot was sold for two hundred spirit stones, and then the second lot came on the market.
Most of the items auctioned earlier were ordinary, but to someone like Shen Wuyan who had never seen the world, they were still very attractive.
Shen Wuyan watched it seriously.
In a blink of an eye, the sixth lot was put on stage.
The moment the items were put on display, Xiao Jing, who had been lazy all the time, suddenly took action. He raised his eyelids and took a look at the display stand.
Shen Wuyan found it strange. After all, this person had been eating melon seeds the whole time and hadn't even glanced at the previous exhibits from beginning to end.
Shen Wuyan asked: "Like it?"
Xiao Jing looked at Shen Wuyan, his eyes lingering on Shen Wuyan's neck for a moment, then he smiled meaningfully and said, "I like it."
"Take pictures if you like. Master will give you spirit stones." Shen Wuyan, the master who was always stingy with himself, was quite generous to his disciple.
Although he really didn't understand, Xiao Jing didn't like the armor, secret manual, and magical herbs, but he liked earrings, and one...
But he changed his mind and thought that Xiao Jing might want to give it to his mysterious sweetheart. The child has grown up and reached the age of falling in love. Shen Wuyan felt like an old father.
The smile on Xiao Jing's lips became more intriguing, "Thank you very much, Master."
At this time, the bidding has begun.
"Fifty Spiritual Stones."
"One hundred spirit stones."
"Two hundred spirit stones."
"Three hundred spirit stones."
The host said excitedly, "The material of this earring is the legendary five-colored divine stone. The material is extremely hard and can withstand even the nine-day thunder tribulation. It also has a small space, so you can hide in the small space when you encounter danger. In addition, its appearance design is beautiful, generous and simple. If you can wear it on the beautiful white earlobe of your sweetheart, the beauty will look back and smile, and shyly call you my dear. Think about it, think carefully, is it beautiful? Is it bright? Is it touching?"
"It's beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, so touching, but I don't have a crush on anyone."
"Am I blind? I just realized now that these earrings were specially made for my wife."
"Nonsense, those earrings were clearly made specifically for my wife. If my wife wears them, she will definitely look great and will definitely be the most stunning."
Listening to the discussion below, Xiao Jing snorted disdainfully.
The most stunning one?
If she really wanted to be the most stunning one, then... Xiao Jing looked at Shen Wuyan who was standing beside him with a fairy-like figure.
Seeing that everyone's enthusiasm had been aroused, the host continued to brainwash them without any hesitation:
"Dear young and old, action is worse than thought. If you miss it, you will miss your true love. If you can get a beautiful woman's smile, it's just a few hundred spirit stones. What are you still hesitating about? For beauty, for true love, go for it."
Under the host's exaggeration, all the old and young people in the audience became extremely excited for a while.
There were only a few people bidding before, but after the host hyped it up, many people joined the bidding and the bidding continued.
"Three hundred and fifty spirit stones."
"Four hundred spirit stones."
"Four hundred and fifty spirit stones."
"Five hundred spirit stones."
"Six hundred spirit stones."
Suddenly, a distinguished guest in a private room on the third floor shouted arrogantly: "Two thousand spirit stones, I want these earrings!"
A small earring was actually bid for 2,000 spirit stones. The host laughed so hard that he couldn't stop, and continued to promote, "Whoever gets this earring will get a beautiful woman. Ladies and gentlemen, think about your sweetheart who is waiting for you to give her the earrings in the distance. Are you willing to bid more?"
Someone below gritted his teeth and raised the price.
"Two thousand one hundred spirit stones."
"Two thousand two hundred spirit stones."
The man on the third floor snorted coldly and said, "You don't know your own limitations. Three thousand spirit stones, who dares to snatch it from me?"
"Forget it, forget it. My wife doesn't really like wearing earrings. I won't argue with you."
"Actually, think about it, the style of those earrings doesn't really match my wife. Forget it, forget it."
"I don't even have a lover, so I won't join in the fun."
For a while, everyone below found excuses to stop participating in the auction.
The rich and noble young man on the third floor snorted arrogantly upon seeing this.
The host shouted loudly: "Three thousand spirit stones once, three thousand spirit stones twice, three thousand..."
Seeing that the deal was about to be completed, Shen Wuyan looked at Xiao Jing and reminded him, "If you don't bid, someone else will buy it."
Xiao Jing raised his eyebrows lazily: "Master, why are you so anxious?"
Shen Wuyan: "Don't you like it?"
At the same time, the host's voice came, "Three times, congratulations!"
"Wait!" Xiao Jing looked at Shen Wuyan and shouted, interrupting the host.
The host noticed that the voice came from the sixth floor, so he asked respectfully, "May I ask if you want to raise the price?"
At the same time, the nobleman on the third floor walked to the railing, looked up, and shouted, "You want to rob me?"
"No," Xiao Jing turned his head back, stood up and walked to the railing, leaned on the railing and looked down, and said arrogantly: "The earrings are originally mine, how can you steal them?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at the host and said, "I'll pay five thousand spirit stones."
