Volume 1 Chapter 602 Buying for Fun

Chapter 602: Buying and Playing

Zhang Fei feigned anger and said, "Is it fun to pretend to be poor?" He turned to the feminine young man in white and said, "He is not a poor guy, he just likes to joke." After saying that, he put away the spirit stones, stuffed the storage bag into Liu Zhu's arms, and talked to the people around him. He said loudly: "It's just a joke. My brother likes to play. There is no malice. Please bear with me, fellow Taoists."

Then he said softly to the feminine young man: "I think, let's forget about it."

What sounded like a gentle word to others was like the beating of a drum in the ears of the effeminate young man. The sound shot straight through his mind like an arrow, making his eyes go into a trance. He waited for the sound of the arrow to dissipate before calming down, and his face changed. Change, Chong Zhang was afraid that he would throw away his hand, and left without saying a word.

He knew that Zhang was afraid of being merciful, and he also knew that he was too weak to do anything, so he would not die foolishly.

Liu Zhu was still confused, but Zhang Wen grabbed him and said, "Let's go." He dragged him out, followed by Yan Gang and the other three. Although they couldn't figure out the situation, they knew that Fellow Daoist Hong was treating them well, so they had no objections.

Before leaving the shopping mall, Zhang was afraid of throwing out the tent and letting the four people in. After setting up a barrier, he said: "The bed is mine. Find a place to rest wherever you like."

Yan Gang clasped his fists and bowed: "Thank you for the help..." Zhang Wen waved his hand and said: "It's nothing." He said to Liu Zhu: "Bring it here." No matter how reckless Liu Zhu was, he knew that Zhang Wen was saving him, otherwise he would go out and fight with him. If the enemy fights, the outcome will definitely not be good. I am very grateful and want to repay him, but I don't understand what he wants from me.

Zhang Ai came over and took the storage bag from his arms and said with a smile: "Don't you want to give it back to me?" Liu Zhu's face flushed and he shook his head: "No, no." Zhang Ai said with a smile: "You're just kidding, don't I’m so nervous, but I have something to tell you.”

"What's the matter?" Yan Gang was nervous for a while. He helped us once and asked for reward, right?

Zhang Dawei said: "From now on, until you leave Shangji, you have to stay with me."

Liu Zhu asked: "Why?" He Huizhi and Wang Qingxian were very smart. They both stepped forward, clasped their fists at Zhang Awei and said, "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for your generous help."

Zhang was afraid and said: "Don't reveal your wealth. You are a little foundation-building monk walking around with hundreds of millions of spiritual stones. Who do you think doesn't want to kill you?"

Liu Zhu said: "I don't have hundreds of millions of spirit stones..." He didn't react before he finished speaking. He paused for a moment and then smiled: "It's okay. It's better to die in a few days than to die now."

Zhang Wen was very satisfied with his performance and didn't want to talk any more. He said quietly: "Have a rest." He lay down on his back and went to sleep.

However, the four of them, Yan Gang, were not so relaxed. They gathered together to discuss quietly what to do next. There's no way to explain this. Are there no spiritual stones? No one believed it either. I felt a little bit guilty about Zhang Afraid in my heart, but I also knew that he was trying to save people, so I could only look helpless with big eyes. Only Liu Zhuman didn't care: "What can I do if I am dead or alive? Sleep."

At dawn the next day, Zhang Wen invited four people to have a meal, and then went shopping with them. After what happened yesterday, everyone in the market knew them. They were third-grade spiritual stones. One of them came from the bottom of the pile. It's as high as a hill. How many spiritual stones does it cost? There are so many spiritual stones, what can’t you buy?

Sellers greeted them warmly along the way, hoping that the Gods of Wealth would take care of their business. Poor Yan Gang and the other four are serious poor people. They can't see it, but they still insist on stuffing it into your hands. The awkwardness in your heart is simply indescribable.

Zhang Awei said softly: "If you want to buy something, buy it. Don't you still have Master and Third Brother? Buy something and take it back, I'll pay the bill." The four people refused, Zhang Awei said: "Buy it, it's better to buy something you want. Taken away by someone else.”

The four of them thought about it, they were being targeted anyway, and it was unclear whether they would live or die in the future, so they would buy some, and if they didn't die after leaving the market, they would find a way to return the spirit stones to him. So the four of them went shopping for a while, and Liu Zhu never forgot to bargain, but no one dared to laugh at him at this time. He was carrying hundreds of millions of spiritual stones, so maybe he just wanted to enjoy haggling. In the end, I spent more than 10,000 spiritual stones to buy some herbal ores, which were all ordinary things. When he came back, he thanked Zhang Ping all the time, but Zhang Ping just laughed it off.

Soon another seven days passed, and the most solemn event of the trade fair, the auction conference, began. At this time, the number of pill-forming monks began to increase, and some Yuanying old monsters came to join in the fun. Thousands of people crowded towards the auction house.

You pay money to enter according to the old rules, but the price has increased from five spirit stones to ten spirit stones. Zhang Ain and Liu Zhu and the four of them received the cloaks and entered the venue. After entering the auction hall, Liu Zhu said: "It's really profitable. Ten spiritual stones for one person, and one hundred thousand spiritual stones for ten thousand people. It's faster than robbery." Zhang Ain smiled and said, "Have you ever robbed?"

Liu Zhu hurriedly said: "No, no, this can't be nonsense."

Because they were foundation-building monks, the seats they were assigned were very ordinary, at the very back. Liu Zhu didn't care about this and looked very excited: "So many masters." More than half of the people who entered the auction house were alchemy masters. They were the main demanders for various auction items. The foundation-building monks were more like watching the fun. .

A quarter of an hour later, a bell rang in the center of the auction room, the surrounding area became quiet, and the auction officially began.

The auction house is still round, with an auction table in the middle. There are various experts sitting in circles around it, and there are many boys in uniforms serving them. There are lighting beads on the auction table, and a high-level alchemy-forming monk below is presiding over the auction.

Most of the things that can be put up for auction are good things, such as herbal medicines that are hundreds of years old, refined elixirs, precious materials, magic weapons, etc. It was an eye-opener for the four of them, Liu Zhu, especially Liu Zhu. Every item auctioned would cause him to exclaim, imagining how great it would be if all these things were his.

Yan Gang and the other two were also concentrating, not blinking, fearing that they would miss something good. Only Zhang Pa looked at it carelessly, and took the time to bid for two pieces of top-quality five-element materials, spending about 400,000 spirit stones. Liu Zhu felt distressed: "How can you waste spirit stones like this? More than 400,000, you can buy a refined magic weapon, what's the point of buying this material?"

Zhang Pa did not explain, and when the next item came on stage, it naturally attracted Liu Zhu's attention again.

It took a whole day before someone auctioned a monster beast, an adult lion beast, a fifth-grade monster beast, equivalent to a primary-level master of Jindan, but definitely more powerful than a primary-level master of Jindan. Adult monsters are generally not willing to be bought, unless they are killed to take the skin and inner elixir, otherwise they are difficult to tame, even if a heart contract is signed, it is a bit troublesome, after all, they are not as close and spiritual as those who have been raised since childhood.

After the auctioneer called out several times, no one was willing to buy it. The auctioneer then said, "I am now auctioning an inner elixir of the demon beast lion beast, as well as its entire body of leather armor and teeth." This sentence angered the lion beast, and it roared loudly and slammed into the iron cage that trapped it. It knew that those people wanted to kill it.

But the cage was not made of ordinary iron, but mixed with several kinds of solid casting materials, which was quite strong, and the lion beast could not break it at all.

The inner elixir was much cheaper than the live lion beast, and at less than half the price, some people began to bid. The effect of refining advanced elixir with the inner elixir of the demon beast is much better than that of refining advanced elixir with the same herbs. Who wouldn't want it?

Looking at the angry lion beast in the cage, Zhang Pa raised his right hand and shouted out the price of the live lion beast just now. After he shouted, no one bid against him anymore. They all looked at him strangely, thinking that this man was sick and was here to mess up the situation.

After the auctioneer made the final decision, a service boy came to confirm the transaction with him. Liu Zhu beside him was saying that he was stupid and didn't know how to spend money.

The auction lasted for three days, and more than a thousand items of all sizes were handed over, but there were no monster eggs. There were quite a few inner pills, and the only living monster was the lion beast he bought. Zhang Pa was a little disappointed, but fortunately he bought a lot of various top-quality five-element materials, which was considered a compensation.

After the auction, everyone returned their cloaks and left. Liu Zhu scolded Zhang Pa for being a fool while worrying about him, and Zhang Pa did not refute. Seeing that the masters around him left one after another, Yan Gang clasped his fists and said, "You have been taken care of by Daoyou these days, which has opened my eyes to the four brothers. I am grateful for your kindness. I will take my leave now. If you need me in the future, please send someone to Yiqimen to say hello." After spending these few days together, even a fool knows that Zhang Pa is not ordinary. How can ordinary people carry hundreds of millions of spirit stones when going out? Ordinary people will not buy a lot of five-element materials that can't see the use, so they became much more polite when talking to Zhang Pa.

Next to Zhang Pa was the lion beast, which was as high as his ribs, nestling in the iron cage and roaring non-stop. Zhang Pa said, "Stop yelling. I won't kill you." Then he said to Yan Gang, "You can't leave yet."

Yan Gang asked, "Why?" He couldn't figure out what this guy wanted to do. After just a few days of getting along, Zhang Pa's actions always surprised him.

Zhang Pa tilted his head: "There, there, there, and there, there are people waiting for you. Where do you want to go?"

This sentence scared the four people, and they all turned their heads to look, but they didn't find anything wrong. Zhang Pa smiled and said, "Don't look for them. You can't see them, but they found that you are looking for them."

"Ah?" Yan Gang believed this guy named Hong Wu a little. With his wealth, there was no need to lie to others. He asked anxiously, "What should we do?"

"What should we do?" Zhang Pa spoke as if nothing had happened.

"Someone is watching us. How can we leave?" Liu Zhu gave up looking and came back to ask.

"Why are you in a hurry? The business fair hasn't ended yet. It will take some time after the auction to collect. Stay here first and think of a way slowly." Zhang Pa squatted down to look at the lion beast after he said that.

"Okay." The four couldn't think of any ideas, so they had to agree.

The lion beast glared at Zhang Pa, threatening him with its fierce appearance. Zhang Pa smiled lightly, stood up and walked forward with the cage, a little further this time. He stopped after walking five miles, threw it out of the tent and said, "You guys go in, I'll play with it for a while." The lion beast felt despised and was very angry, and roared again.

Zhang Pa threw the cage aside: "Why are you yelling? You are the only one who can yell? If I didn't want to see you get killed, I wouldn't bother with you." The lion beast was wild and roared at him through the cage. He ignored what he said.

Zhang Pa found that his temper became better after his cultivation became higher, and said to the lion beast: "Listen carefully, I will let you out, stay here honestly, don't make trouble for yourself, do you understand?"
