"but… "
Gu Xi changed the subject, pointed at the girl in the pink skirt, and said, "You have to accompany her to a place and protect her with all your strength."
The price of this ancient tempering book has now been quoted as high as 400,000 high-grade spiritual stones.
The implication of Gu Xi's words is that he is giving away high-grade spiritual stones priced at 400,000 yuan or more. This favor is so great that it is unimaginable!
This also proves that the place Gu Xi mentioned is by no means a good place!
"I'm only in the early stage of foundation building, why did you choose me? I'm afraid this girl's strength is still above mine, right?" Su Zimo was silent for a while and asked.
Gu Xi asked instead, "I heard that you are good at melee combat?"
Su Zimo frowned.
Not many people knew about his powerful melee combat power, and they didn't know where Gu Xi got the news.
Su Zimo's eyes turned and landed on the face of the girl in pink skirt.
The girl in the pink skirt was covered with a veil, and there was a trace of smile in her eyes, but nothing could be seen.
Su Zimo hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "It's okay."
Gu Xi smiled and said: "That place is a bit special, you will know it when you go there."
Su Zimo didn't agree, and Gu Xi didn't let go, obviously unwilling to reveal too much.
In fact, even if he didn't say it, Su Zimo also realized that this trip must be extremely dangerous!
You know, 400,000 high-grade spiritual stones are more than enough to buy the lives of forty foundation-building monks.
After pondering for a while, Su Zimo nodded and said: "Okay, I promise you!"
"Refreshing!" Gu Xi touched her palm lightly and exclaimed in praise.
Gu Xi turned her head slightly and transmitted the message into the secret. The maid next to her understood, came to Su Zimo and asked with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Su, if you want to increase the price, just tell me and I will help you pass the message."
Only the ten rooms at the top have this kind of treatment. In this way, even the guests' voices will not be exposed, and it will not cause unnecessary trouble.
You know, in the auction house, many cultivators who take pictures of items are most worried about having their identity exposed and attracting the covetousness of others.
The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of having a jade. This is the truth.
…
In the inner workshop, watching the confrontation between Sima Zhi and Old Man Zao, many people were discussing in private.
"Piaomiao Peak is really embarrassed this time. Being ridiculed and ridiculed by others, but unable to refute."
"Hey, it's strange. Piaomiao Peak is refining elixirs and has never been good at refining weapons. Why do you want to buy the secret book on refining weapons now?"
The two golden elixir masters started fighting, and the shopkeeper was overjoyed. He smiled and said loudly: "Fellow Daoist Sima from Zhenhuo Sect has already bid 400,000 spirit stones. I wonder if this fellow Daoist from Piaomiao Peak will raise the price." ?”
"Old man, please increase the price."
Sima Zhi laughed and said: "If you dare to raise it to 410,000, I will raise it to 420,000. Let's see which one of us can't hold on first!"
The old man's face was ugly, and he tried hard to calm down the bad breath in his chest. After a while, he slowly said: "Sima Zhi, don't be complacent, the future is long!"
With that said, the bad old man was about to leave.
"Four hundred thousand!"
At this moment, a crisp sound suddenly came from above the inner square.
Everyone looked around and saw a maid standing there at the door of the first room at the top of the inner square, smiling, and had just reported a number.
Many cultivators on the seats were stunned.
Not to mention them, even the shopkeeper looked confused and froze on the spot.
Others didn't know, but he knew who was sitting in Room 1 today. That was the chief manager of Tianbao Auction House!
"Why did this big shot get involved?"
The shopkeeper is a bit confused.
The bad old man stopped and looked back at Sima Zhi with a hint of teasing in his eyes.
Just as Sima Zhi made the bold statement about Haikou, someone appeared and raised the price, which was quite tit-for-tat.
Of course, neither Sima Zhi nor Old Man Zao knew who the person in Room 1 was.
After all, the maid at the door was just a messenger.
The person in control was stunned for a while, then coughed slightly and said: "Guests in Room 1... the price will be increased to 410,000!"
Sima Zhi frowned, stared at Room 1 for a long time, and then said slowly: "Four hundred and twenty thousand!"
The maid at the door of Room 1 turned slightly, listened for a moment, then turned around and said loudly: "Four hundred and thirty thousand!"
Sima Zhi looked hesitant.
Guests who can enter the top ten rooms are either powerful, have a distinguished status, or have to spend a lot of extra spiritual stones.
Sima Zhi didn't know anything about this person's identity, strength, or sect, and he felt a little guilty.
The bad old man crossed his arms and said at the right time: "Sima Zhi, the price is increasing, why not increase it?"
Sima Zhi suddenly laughed, shook his head and said, "I don't want it anymore. Anyway, I have a lot of ancient books like this in my real fire sect. I'm just asking for this price because I don't want this ancient book to fall into the hands of an old guy like you."
"You are so shameless!" The old man cursed with a cold face.
Sima Zhi smiled and said: "This is not shameless, I just don't want the pearl to be covered in dust. If this ancient book falls into your hands, no one can understand it, haha!"
After laughing, Sima Zhi clasped his fists in the direction of Room 1 and said loudly: "Since this fellow Taoist is interested in this ancient book, I have no choice but to give it up."
The shopkeeper secretly wiped his cold sweat and said, "Congratulations to the guest in Room 1, for buying this ancient book for 430,000 yuan."
At this moment, the maid at the door of Room 1 turned sideways again.
Many monks realized that the people inside had something to say again.
After a moment, the maid turned around and said, "Please give this ancient book to this fellow Taoist in Room 77, Piaomiao Peak."
Give-give!
The whole place was silent.
Everyone looked stunned and dumbfounded.
Sima Zhi was a little confused.
The old man was also confused. He looked back at the room he was in. It was indeed number seventy-seven.
Who is the other party to give such a big gift
The first reaction of many monks was that the guests in Room 1 were joking.
The shopkeeper knows very well who the general manager of Tianbao Auction House is. Although she is a woman, she is sure that she will never make such a joke!
The shopkeeper immediately wrapped up the ancient book, came to the door of room 77 in person, and handed the ancient book to Old Man Zao in full view of everyone.
It wasn't until this moment that everyone realized what was going on, and they couldn't help but change their colors in an uproar.
Sima Zhi's face suddenly darkened.
No matter who the other party is, this move is obviously against him!
However, Sima Zhi couldn't understand what kind of person could give away more than 400,000 high-grade spiritual stones at will. This was too big a deal!
"Fellow Taoist, what does this mean? You can't get along with my true fire sect with a pure heart, right?"
Sima Zhi opened his mouth and immediately moved the sect out.
"I like it."
The maid shook her head, pretending to be proud.
These two lines of dialogue seemed familiar to each other. They were exactly what Sima Zhi said when he ran against the old man, but now they were sent back by the original party.
In fact, this maid is only twelve or thirteen years old. She is not tall and naive. She has big watery eyes and a clear voice. Now she imitates Sima Zhi and says this sentence, which seems extremely interesting.
There was a burst of laughter in the crowd.
