But things changed with the situation, as the ancient monks disappeared, these mermaids suddenly gained freedom for some reason, so they began to call themselves sea dwellers, and since then they have stayed away from continents, only visible in the depths of the sea, ordinary people It can't be touched easily, but now it is caught and auctioned off as an auction item.
Having said that, if it was just a mermaid with a peculiar bloodline, it would not have caused such a fierce reaction from the monks, especially when the person hosting the auction mentioned that the mermaid's cultivation was only after the middle stage of foundation establishment, but there was no such thing at all. The enthusiasm of the monks was reduced, but the bidders became more and more enthusiastic.
There are two reasons for this situation. One is the unique bloodline of the merman, which is different from monks who need to rely on various magic tools to explore deep under the sea, and have to calculate mana consumption all the time. The mermen can be said to be "like a fish in water" for this environment. If there is a merman to assist them, they will not only get a good harvest every time they sail, but they will not be in vain.
Even if nothing else is said, just being able to assist the monks to explore the treasures under the sea, this mermaid is enough to attract the covetousness of many people who participated in the exploration of the East China Sea.
Based on such a premise, if this merman also has a certain special physique——
"Identified by Master Xu of our firm, this mermaid is a 'submerged body' which is rare in a hundred years. If you use it as a cauldron for cultivation, there is hope for people with water-type spiritual veins to break through!"
"Even if this merman is cultivated to the realm of fake pills and then paired with one or two elixir, it may not be impossible to form pills with this!"
——Jiedan, Jindan, real person.
Although they are in different places and different environments, the monks already have an irresistible desire for what the title "Jindan Daoist" represents.
At this moment, with the "reminder" from the host, it was even more out of control.
In less than a few quotations, it has already soared from the initial 30 spirit stones to [-], and it is still rising at an exaggerated speed.
From this point of view, the resources circulating in the territory of the East China Sea are indeed much richer...In other territories, Jindan Daoist does not mention it, and ordinary foundation-building cultivators may not be able to get 30 to [-] spirit stones even if they sell iron. However, the ones quoting such prices at the moment are all Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Just as Lin Xiu was trying to learn more about Wanghai Ling through this auction, the half-demons who were always watching and suspected to be mermaids also took action.
Surrounded by a crowd of monks, these mermaids were not so stupid as to violently snatch them all by themselves, but dispersed secretly, hiding in the crowd and shouting suddenly.
"Master Zhou, I've heard you talk so much but I haven't seen the real thing. Anyway, some fellow daoist will be photographing this time. Why don't you let me wait to open my eyes?"
As soon as this remark came out, it immediately attracted the approval of many people.
"That's right, Master Zhou, why don't you let me see what this shark looks like?"
"I heard that the mermaid was shaped by Gu Xiu's great power, Zhao is also somewhat interested."
"Isn't there something wrong with your firm's delay in letting me see this shark?"
……
Facts have proved that no matter which world you are in, there are always "crowds of onlookers", even in the world of cultivating immortals.
The auction was full of two to three hundred people, and there were only a few who were able to participate in the bidding, but more people could only watch because they were too cash-strapped. Now that they had the opportunity to enjoy their eyesight, they were naturally unwilling to be just a background, and responded immediately Go along with it.
Facing the turbulent crowd below, the "Master Zhou" cursed inwardly and then continued to comfort him.
"Fellow daoists don't know, this mermaid is cowardly by nature, and fellow daoists are all people with profound mana, I'm afraid you will be frightened if you see it..."
However, "Master Zhou"'s explanation is obviously not convincing. Seeing that even the "rich men" who quoted the quotations are beginning to be skeptical. The red cloth of sight was pulled away.
If it continues to ferment, whether it can be sold or not is one thing, and the reputation of the firm is destined to be rotten.
And when the silk cloth was lifted, everyone in the auction, including Lin Xiu, cast their eyes on the iron cage.
362. The Unfolding of Magic
—What a beauty!
This is the first reaction of many people.
——Since she is such a beauty, why does "Master Zhou" still hide it?
This is the doubt of some people who have reacted.
As for those cultivators on the "third floor" or even the "fourth and fifth floors"... they couldn't help showing a weird expression.
In terms of appearance, this merman can be regarded as a "beauty". That's right, at least it conforms to the current mainstream aesthetics in the world of cultivating immortals. I have never been in contact with the "submerged body" before, but when I scanned it with my spiritual sense, I was able to find the unusually strong aura fluctuations on its body.
What makes some monks show such expressions is that this "cauldron" with excellent appearance, cultivation base, and physique——
"...Isn't this shark clearly a man?"
Since it is a "cauldron", then "double cultivation" is indispensable.
And the profound method of "double cultivation" often requires intimate contact, even if the degree of "intimacy" is yet to be tested, but the thought of engaging in "double cultivation" with a person of the same sex... I have to say that the cultivation atmosphere in this world has not yet opened up to that kind of degree.
Unless it is Kunxiu, it is hoped that at least there are not many Kunxiu who are in the city. It may be different if the mermaid appeared in other cities, but for the current auction, it seems that there are so many " Out of season."
The evidence is that after someone pointed out the gender of the mermaid, the number of people who originally offered the price was reduced by more than half, and the remaining ones were no longer tens of thousands of spirit stones, but thousands or even hundreds of spirit stones. water.
This is also the concern of "Master Zhou". If it is just to help explore the treasures of the sea area, then this mermaid itself is not too strange. It is rare for mermaids to practice Qi and build a foundation, but once they reach the golden core level If so, sharks are nothing new.
You must know that the East China Sea is not a good place. There are various sea monsters and fishes and dragons mixed in the sea area, and there will be fights from time to time. The sharks, which are the creations of ancient monks, are often rejected by the sea monsters, and the situation is even more difficult. At this time, pay a price or two. The protection of the golden elixir of the human race has become a feasible strategy.
If you simply want to seek the assistance of the sharks in the exploration, it will cost a lot of spiritual stones to go through the channels of these Jindan real people, but the conversion is about 20 million. Only with the "submerged body" this cauldron Concepts can be sold at a good price.
how...
Thinking of this "Master Zhou", he also complained a bit. With the quality of this "merman", if he waited until the auction in other cities to sell it, he would definitely make a lot of money. Why did the head of the commercial firm rush to sell it at this time? You see Isn't this screwed up?
But no matter how much you complain and are unwilling, since the job of leading the Lingshi still has to be fought, just when "Master Zhou" was about to try to save some points at the beginning, someone shouted from below: "Master Zhou, you submerged man Is the body insurance not complete?"
Lin Xiu, who was paying attention with his spiritual sense, almost spit out a mouthful.
"Master Zhou", who didn't know about this stalk, also realized that the situation was wrong: the instigation just now could be regarded as curiosity, and the one who is still provoking trouble now has a ghost in his heart. Could it be that other firms came to smash the scene?
Immediately, he said in a trembling voice: "I don't know which Taoist friend doubted the reputation of my Xingfeng Trading Company and did such deceitful things?"
A dead silence.
"Hmph, with the firm's [-]-year reputation and my Zhou Fushen as surety, this mermaid is absolutely perfect!"
I thought this matter would end here, but I never thought Zhou Fushen's voice would end, and then there was a strange voice from another direction: "Who knows if Master Zhou is colluding with the business, and no one's spirit stone is blown by the strong wind. How could one hundred thousand spirit stones be given just as you say?"
"That's right. If the shark is really intact, why bother to auction it in this city?"
Amidst the commotion, several monks who were still quoting also closed their mouths with flickering eyes.
Seeing that the situation was about to deteriorate, Zhou Fushen's face turned red, but he didn't want anyone to be more unbearable than him.
What is even more unexpected is that the one who couldn't help it was neither the person behind the firm nor the monk who participated in the auction, but the merman who was locked in a cage and auctioned off as "goods"...
"Xun Geya, I know it's you!"
There was no sign of weakness or asking for help at all, and with a voice full of energy, the mermaid who had just been described by "Master Zhou" as "cowardly by nature" suddenly said: "This situation is my own benevolence. Deren, stop meddling!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone present, no matter who they were, couldn't turn their heads for a while.
Even Lin Xiu, who was paying attention with his spiritual sense the whole time, had to sort out his thoughts: It is known that a mermaid was caught by Xingfeng Trading Company on Biyun Road and sent to Dangcheng Mansion for auction. Cover up your identity and sneak here, disrupt the auction and try to rescue him...
So far, the development has been very domineering and normal. Lin Xiu has even made preparations for "slapping the face in public" and "pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger": at a critical moment, he made a sudden move, first bidding a million spirit stones, and then a city mansion The famous villain made threats, but Lin Xiu, a mysterious man, was indifferent. The latter was so angry that he was about to act violently. At this time, Lin Xiu's body was shocked, and the spiritual pressure of Jindan Daoist was released.
But what is this unfolding now?
It doesn't matter that the merman who was supposed to be rescued is a man, but he has to "criticize" the rescuer, and his tone and state don't look like he's been tortured at all... It's me?
When Lin Xiu was sorting out his thoughts in pain, there was already an uproar at the auction.
After being identified by the merman, the "half-demons" that Lin Xiu had been targeting with his spiritual sense no longer did so, but simply lifted off the camouflage on their bodies, the fin-shaped ears, and the exposed skin The little fish scales on it also confirm its identity.
At this moment, after removing the disguise, he ignored the surroundings and called out to the merman who was locked in the cage: "Gao Chen, Hai Qi also had a hard time about the matter before, go back with me and plead guilty to the elder, otherwise if--"
"Apology? Apology and let him send me to that 'Rong Zhenren'?"
"—"
With an unconcealable disgust on his face, "Gao Chen" who was locked in the cage waved his sleeves and said, "Even if I Xun Gaochen sells himself into slavery, I will never compromise!"
This development is getting more and more magical.
But at the same time, after hearing the name "Rong Zhenren", several monks showed strange expressions, and the ones who reacted quickly even started to move towards the exit.
363. Pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger X
"It's not what you think, Hai Qi is voluntary, and the elder is also..."
When it came to the female mermaid named "Xun Geya", she paused, as if she didn't know how to organize her words for a while.
After seeing her reaction, Xun Gaochen sneered: "Go back, I will never accept such a result."
"I'm afraid this matter is beyond your control."
Interrupting the conversation was another majestic male mermaid. He jumped over the surrounding chaos and stepped straight onto the booth. He also regarded the "Master Zhou" who was sternly scolding him as if he was encircling him. At the same time, a powerful spiritual pressure that only fake alchemy monks possessed spread.
Under the condition that the city master didn't make a move, this mermaid could already be regarded as the strongest one.
At this moment, someone shouted again: "Stop!"
Accompanied by a low, muffled sound, the majestic merman took a few steps back, stepping on the white jade floor of the booth to create cracks, and at the same time, the iron shield blocking the front of the iron cage also bounced back and flew away. A monk was withdrawn from his faintly painful eyes.
"This place is the Dangcheng Mansion, the boundary of our human race, where can a few merman be presumptuous?!"
Facing the monk's stern reprimand of the majestic merman, he didn't take it seriously: "Your Excellency must be the Xingfeng Trading Company enshrining Chu Tianchen, fellow Taoist Chu? It's better for fellow Taoists to interfere less in this matter. I'm afraid that it will inevitably be implicated."
Chu Tianchen was startled: "What do you mean by that?"
"My tribe is located on the perimeter of Biyun Island, fellow Daoist Chu, do you really think there is no reason?"
After finishing speaking, he drew back and moved forward again. This time, Chu Tianchen's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he didn't make a move after all.
A palm fell, and the iron cage, which wasn't considered solid, was directly smashed to pieces, but Xun Gaochen inside didn't intend to catch it without a fight, but pushed out the spell that had been stored in his hand for a long time, aiming at the majestic merman. Kong Shi, who dared to hurt himself and was repelled, jumped into the sky, smashing through the dome and flying out.
however--
"How... possible?"
He had just crashed through the dome and flew out, but the figure blocking the sky made Xun Gaochen stop all his actions, and murmured with an expression of disbelief, "Rong Zhenren?"
It was a mature woman with a graceful figure, and when she looked at Gao Chen in the early days, her face showed a look of pity: "Chen'er, I'm sorry for you."
As if he had been awakened, Xun Gaochen's face turned crazy, and the mana in his body also fluctuated violently: "No, I will never—"
"Rest well, wake up and go home."
With a swipe of his hand, Xun Gaochen, who was still insane at first, suddenly fell into a coma, and was embraced by the "Rong Zhenren" full of pity. It was the fleeing or shrinking figure that changed from the expression of pity just now to a look of indifference.
"You guys dare to have delusional thoughts about Chen'er. The real person of Xingfeng Merchant Guild will find out the truth. As for you... death penalty is inevitable, but life penalty is inevitable!"
As he spoke, he was about to slap down with a backhand slap, but he stopped suddenly in the middle, making a sound of surprise.
One side has already flown up to wait for the majestic merman to see this and ask in confusion: "A real person?"
"...These two women seem to be very ordinary people."
Saying that, the "Rong Zhenren" gently tapped his finger to the two unknown figures below.
