The autumn morning is a bit cold. Of course, for a warrior, even if there is heavy snow falling, he will not feel cold.
In the early morning, the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas began to become lively. Today is the day of the auction. The auction will be held in Foshan. I have just been notified that due to the large number of people this time, the Great Buddha Temple has decided to conduct a public auction in the Foshan open-air square. As long as they reach the Immortal Realm, warriors with no problem with their status can go up and bid and watch freely.
This news undoubtedly ignited the entire City of Ten Thousand Buddhas. Many people had no intention of bidding this time and were not qualified to bid. Now that they can watch it for free, the whole city was naturally excited.
Nowadays, many people approach the Kong family, the spokesperson of the Great Buddha Temple, to apply to go to Foshan. As long as their identity is correct and their strength reaches the realm of immortality, the Kong family will arrange for people to be sent to Foshan.
The sun is three poles high, and the autumn sun is warm on the body. The wind is not strong today, so it is a very good weather.
Lu Li and others were not in a hurry, because they could pay a deposit to participate in the auction. The more deposits they paid, the better the position would be. Lu Li was not bad at Xuan Jing, so it was easy to get a position.
An elder was sent to negotiate with the Kong family. Half an hour before the auction, an elder came in and said, "It's done. We've got an Accord, which can seat three people."
"Let's go!"
In half an hour, we can almost go to Foshan. Lu Li glanced at Gu Min and the Gu family elder, and the three of them walked outside.
The people who found the Kong family were led towards Foshan on foot. Lu Li was not qualified to fly directly to Foshan. If he acted recklessly, he would probably be killed in mid-air.
There is a stone staircase climbing to the sky under Foshan Mountain. Just like the winding mountain road in the Dragon Emperor's Tomb, a stone staircase spirals up, all the way up to the sky.
There are two monks guarding the entrance of the stone staircase. They are wearing brown monk robes and have serious faces. Both of them are at the peak of the monarch realm, which shows that the Great Buddha Temple is strict about this auction.
A steward of the Kong family led Lu, Li, Gu and Min up the stairs. Although there are many stone steps, everyone has good strength, and it only takes a stick of incense to reach the top of the mountain.
The top of the mountain is very broad, and you can see a huge and towering nine-story temple. That temple was located in the north of Foshan. It was at least a thousand feet wide and was the largest temple Lu Li had ever seen.
Except for the temple in the north, temples can be seen everywhere in the rest of the place. Apart from temples, there are no other buildings here.
"so many people!"
Lu Li glanced over and found that there were at least nearly ten thousand people sitting in the huge square in front of him. It was noisy and noisy, like a market.
Lu Li glanced at the Accord in a half-circle in front of him. They said it was an Accord, but in fact they were just random wooden huts. The front was isolated with gauze, and the people inside could be detected with just a glance of his mind.
certainly…
Those who can enter the Accord are all noble people. Maybe there are emperors sitting in some Accords. Who dares to use spiritual power to investigate
On both sides of the square stood rows of brown-robed monks holding black wooden sticks. They all had bronze skin and cold faces. Needless to say, there are Arhat-like existences in the Great Buddha Temple. These are warrior monks whose task is to maintain the order of the auction.
"They are all at the pinnacle of the monarch realm!"
Lu Li nodded secretly. There were at least several hundred monks outside at the moment, all of whom were at the peak of the Monarch Realm. This showed that the Great Buddha Temple had a strong foundation and that the Twelve Royal Clan lived up to its name.
"Royal family?"
Lu Li suddenly thought of a question and murmured to Gu Min in confusion: "The monk has no descendants and no family, right? Who is the royal family of the Great Buddha Temple?"
"Actually, it's the Kong family!"
Gu Min looked around and said in a low voice: "The monks in the Great Buddha Temple can return to secular life at will, and are not subject to any control over their life and life. The last ten generations of abbots are all members of the Kong family, so the royal family naturally belongs to the Kong family."
"So that's it!"
Lu Li understood. Being born into the world is very casual. It doesn't matter if you become a monk or not. If you want to get married and have children, you can just return to secular life. When you have a full family, you can then become a monk and continue to be a monk...
Lu Li took a few glances and found that there were many nuns walking around. He winked and Gu Min explained in a low voice: "Actually, the Great Buddha Temple is composed of more than a dozen families. Young masters and women from those families will join the Great Buddha Temple. Both men and women will join the Great Buddha Temple. Everyone can become a monk, and when they reach the age of marriage, they can return to secular life and get married. Of course, there are also outside warriors who can become monks. There are no restrictions on men and women in the Great Buddha Temple. As long as they have Buddha in their hearts, they are not even prohibited from eating and drinking... "
"oh oh."
Lu Li understood something in his heart, but he didn't have a good impression of the Great Buddha Temple. If you are truly dedicated to Buddha, you should not miss the world, let alone strive to become one of the twelve top powers in the mainland.
The Qingluan tribe and the Mammoth tribe were once surrounded by six major forces, including the Great Buddha Temple. It can be seen that this group of monks and nuns is no different from ordinary big families and powerful forces, they just wear a layer of Buddhist skin.
Due to the large number of people in today's auction, the arrangement was a bit simple. There were more than 10,000 futons placed directly to the south, with ordinary warriors sitting on them. At this moment, most of them were almost full.
The remaining three directions are all small simple wooden houses. There are five or six hundred of them, large and small. I don’t know how to divide them enough? After all, there are quite a few big and small families coming this time.
Lu Li was taken to a small accordion in the corner by the Kong family. With the status of the Gu family, in order to get an accordion, the elders of the Gu family had to hand over tens of billions of Xuanjing deposits to the Kong family. Otherwise, Lu Li and the others would have to sit there. On the futon among the crowd.
The Yage was very small. There was only a small table and three stools with a pot of tea and some spiritual fruits on them. There was not even a maid to pour the tea.
Time passed bit by bit, and a moment later a white-robed monk came over. The ring in his hand kept lighting up, and then white lotus-like rosettes flew into the air, suspended above the Accord.
"what is that?"
Lu Li had never seen this thing before and didn't know what it was used for. Gu Min explained in a low voice: "That is the Lotus Terrace, a flying treasure that can open restrictions. It is probably for distinguished guests."
"No wonder!"
Lu Li suddenly realized that he had doubted so many gentlemen and ladies just now, how could these Accords be able to sit in them? He didn't understand until he saw hundreds of lotus flowers floating in the air.
"咻咻咻~"
Figures of people in some temples on the east and west sides rose into the sky, and then turned into a stream of light and entered the lotus platform. Then the lotus platform flashed with light, and a white shield appeared to cover the people inside.
Lu Li used his spiritual thoughts to scan and found that even his spiritual thoughts could not detect it. He curled his lips and thought to himself that these young ladies from wealthy families were too high-profile. Would it be possible to lose a few pieces of meat by looking at them a few times
"Ji Mengtian, Yang Xuan, Lu Suan, Lu Ni, Die Feiyu, Ye Luo..."
A group of young ladies flew up from the west. Lu Li's eyes suddenly shrank. He saw many familiar people and many strangers. Among this group of people, he saw several very handsome young men with extraordinary bearing, and he also saw seven or eight young ladies who were as beautiful as gods.
"All the top young ladies from the twelve royal families are here."
Lu Li pursed his lips, and a beautiful face wearing a red dress, with narrowed fox eyes and tilted head appeared in his mind.
The Jiang family is also one of the royal families, but Jiang Qiling did not show up. It seems that she is still locked up in the Demon Slayer Palace for cultivation.
"Qiling, are you okay?"
Lu Li sighed slightly, with a look of loneliness and longing on his face, just like the autumn wind, which still carries a slight chill even under the warm sun, and it never goes away...
