Chapter Fifty-Nine: Dangerous Moves
Bidding farewell to Wei Laohei, who looked regretful, Xiao Mian wandered through Lingchuanfang City, which was getting late but brightly lit, his face was cloudy.
"Although I don't know how many orders and products that demon beast bones are, but if you can come to the auction, you won't be far behind, if you kid can get that complete bone, the speed of practicing the third stage of the "Ten Thousand Poisons Curse" will definitely be greatly shortened, and the power of training is much greater than using fragmented beast bones, if possible, you might as well give it a go!" Feeling the hesitation in Xiao Mian's heart, the ghost head said instigating. Xiao Mian was noncommittal when he heard this, and only after a long time did he say to himself: "What should I take to bid? The 1,000 lower-grade spirit stones are still Nie Sheng's credit, and now there are only 4,000 lower-grade spirit stones and nearly 100 middle-grade spirit stones left, how can they be auctioned?"
When bidding for the Condensing Gold Creation Pill on the same day, those Jindan powerhouses were 1,100 Zhongling Zhongling who increased their prices, and finally broke out the sky-high price of 20,000 Zhongpin Spirit Stones.
The value of a complete demon beast skeleton is definitely not as good as the gold condensation creation pill of the four-grade golden pill, but it is definitely not something that Xiao Mian's current thin net worth can eat.
"Just worry about this? You kid will be stupid to death in the future!" Xiao Mian was counted down fiercely, and the ghost head said angrily: "Just in your storage bag for spiritual materials, you can just take out a cold stone box and exchange it for that beast bone! Listen to what you said, the monk who planted these spiritual materials that day was just a Jindan cultivator, but his attainments in cultivating spiritual plants are even impressive to Lao Tzu!"
"The spiritual materials in the cold stone box? Yes, why didn't I think of this wealth?" Xiao Mian was overjoyed when he was awakened by the ghost head's words, but soon he lowered his head again: "It's still not good! It's not only the auction on August 15, not only the nearby scattered cultivators will gather in Lingchuanfang City, but also the Demon Shadow Sect, Luohua Valley, and my Five Elements Sect will also send special people to participate in the bidding, and I'm afraid that my identity as a disciple of the Demon Shadow Sect will not be usable! Whether it is Wei Laohei or the Demon Shadow Sect knowing about my existence, it will be a disaster of death!"
"That's a problem! It's a pity you only have a mask, otherwise...... Wait! Just don't wear a mask! Go to the auction with your true colors, it is expected that even if Wei Laohei connects with someone from the Demon Shadow Sect and knows that someone has impersonated him, he will not be able to suspect your head. I just don't know that your kid is a well-known figure in the Five Elements Gate? If that's the case, you'd better leave as soon as possible. ”
"Not really! and quite the opposite!"
As the saying goes, one person counts short, two people count long, Xiao Mian discussed with the ghost head for a long time, and felt that participating in the auction with his true face was a risky move.
After all, there are only a few people in the entire Five Elements Sect who know Xiao Mian, if there is no major event, Biluo Immortal and Yuan Xuan will not be able to come to Lingchuanfang City at all; as for Lu Chengfeng, as a personal disciple of the sect that focuses on cultivating, he will not be bored to the point of participating in the auction; and then thinking of what Lu Chengfeng said to Xie Ying that day, it is that Fu Qingqiong needs to be careful - but in his selfish heart, Xiao Mian has some hope to see Fu Qingqiong again.
It is not certain whether the Five Elements Sect will send someone here, and it is not certain whether the person who will come is Fu Qingqiong, and Wei Laohei will indeed be in Lingchuanfang City. Thinking of Wei Laohei, he could even know in advance what the auction would be, obviously he had some tricks in this Lingchuanfang City, and that human skin mask was really unusable.
In other words, it is safest for him to show his true colors!
Back in the Ye family's courtyard, there was nothing to say all night.
The next day, the auction begins.
During the day, Xiao Mian wandered around the stall area in the west of Fang City for a long time, under the guidance of the ghost head, Xiao Mian had a bit of the pleasure of picking up leaks - under the washing of time, many originally valuable utensils were dusted by history, no one knew them, and the profound knowledge of the ghost head was vividly expressed at this time, and the fly in the ointment was that the memory loss of the ghost head was serious, and he only knew that many things were treasures, but he didn't know why they were treasures.
Thanks to the fact that those things are not too expensive, Xiao Mian also held the mentality of buying them first and then talking about them, and wiped them all out.
Xiao Mian's actions made Xuan Lang, who was following on the side, a little anxious, and dissuaded Xiao Mian several times not to be so wasteful and buy some useless garbage. Xiao Mian was going to explain to him at first, but in the end, he let it go, you continue to talk about yours, and I will continue to buy mine.
Near noon, Xiao Mian stopped this kind of crazy behavior in the eyes of outsiders, and then he returned to the Ye family's courtyard, and after saying goodbye to Xuan Lang, he left Lingchuan Fang City with Ye Qingguo - of course Xiao Mian didn't really leave, he was just making an illusion, lest Wei Laohei know that he was being played by himself and deal with himself with anger, the reason why he took Ye Qingguo away was also for this consideration, as for Xuan Lang, he refused to leave Fang City, and he said that he hadn't known everything in the world yet.
After flying three hundred miles north of Fang City, he met a village and placed Ye Qingguo in a peasant woman's house, Xiao Mian turned around and flew towards Lingchuanfang City.
On the way, Xiao Mian tore off the human skin mask and changed into the black robe of the Demon Shadow Sect, and when Xiao Mian entered Lingchuanfang City again, he had already changed into a young casual cultivator wearing a green shirt.
Although he knew that it was unlikely that there would be his acquaintances in Lingchuanfang City, Xiao Mian was still a bit of a thief and was cautious all the way.
Several times he almost attracted the attention of the monks who patrolled back and forth in the market, if it weren't for his low cultivation, I am afraid that he would have come up to check it a long time ago. After realizing his gaffe, Xiao Mian was a little helpless, his eyes rolled, and he caught a glimpse of a shop on the side of the road, so he flashed into it, walked around the store casually, and then asked the clerk softly.
"Dare to ask this little brother, are you Boss Xie available?"
"Boss Xie, our boss is not surnamed Xie!"
"Isn't this Vientiane Zhai?"
"The small shop is indeed Vientiane Zhai, but our boss really doesn't have the surname Xie!"
But it turned out that he had just caught a glimpse of Vientiane Zhai by chance, and Xiao Mian remembered the fat man Xie Ying he knew before, if he could have a relationship with this fat man, his safety would be guaranteed.
But when I came in and asked, Vientiane Zhai actually changed his surname, and the way of the world became too fast!
So where did Fat Xie go?
"Oh! It's a mistake in the next note, farewell!" Suspicious, Xiao Mian was afraid that something would happen and didn't dare to stay for a long time, so he withdrew from Vientiane Zhai and quickly walked away. The clerk only thought that Xiao Mian was really confused, so he didn't keep him anymore, and when he turned around, he saw his boss staring at him behind him, and the clerk couldn't help but shiver. The new boss of Vientiane Zhai is a beautiful young woman, in her thirties, extremely enchanting, wearing a bright red palace dress. Throwing a wink at her clerk, she exhaled and asked lightly, "Who is that little brother just now?"
He ...... He said he had come to find the boss of Vientiane Zhai......"
"Why don't you bring in the slave?"
He ...... He said to find the boss surnamed Xie......"
"Looking for Xie Fatty?" The woman was stunned when she heard this, her eyes turned to the street outside, but where was Xiao Mian's figure, she pondered for a moment, and the woman smiled softly: "Hmph! It seems that Xie Fatzi has been in this Lingchuanfang City for ten years and has not gained nothing, he has been gone for more than half a year, and there are still people who come to him......"
At this time, Xiao Mian had already stayed away from Vientiane Zhai, and now Xiao Mian himself was anxious, so he naturally wouldn't pay too much attention to Xie Fatzi's situation, but without Xie Fatzi's relationship, he was afraid that it would take a little more effort for him to successfully blend into the Lingchuan.
