Shiyu City is extremely lively today, and the Lijia Auction House seems to be ushering in an unprecedented event.

A large number of monks gathered here, filling the previously empty square to the brim.

Following Zhu Luan's footsteps into the auction house, Qin Long was surprised to find that the Li family had opened all the auction halls this time, and the monks traveling through the auction halls made the entire hall look busy.

"Why are there so many people today?"

Chapter 55

Shiyu City is extremely lively today, and the Lijia Auction House seems to be ushering in an unprecedented event.

A large number of monks gathered here, filling the previously empty square to the brim.

Following Zhu Luan's footsteps into the auction house, Qin Long was surprised to find that the Li family was actually going out of the main hall this time, and all the auction halls were opened. The monks shuttled through the various auction halls making the entire hall look busy.

.

"Why are there so many people today?"

Zhu Luan paused, looked around and said: "Sir, all these monks came to our house to buy elixirs and weapons because of the wolf disaster. Most of them are businessmen around Shiyu City. They are extremely generous and the quantities they ask for each time are extremely large.

There are too many, and I want to empty out my family’s inventory to raise prices.”

"But they underestimated the strength of the Li family. If they want to hollow out our Li family, even the Lord of Shiyu City cannot do it." Zhu Luan said with a proud expression.

Hearing the pride in Zhu Luan's tone, Qin Long burst into laughter.

He has never been able to understand this woman's brain circuit. No matter how many things she sells, the benefits belong to her family, not yours. Why do you have to act so powerful?

Smiling and shaking his head, Qin Long urged the other party to handle the auction quickly, and then turned around and walked into the miscellaneous hall.

Zhu Luan is the auctioneer of the mixed hall, and his weapons will definitely appear here.

It has to be said that the negative impact of the wolf disaster is really great. In just one day, all the large and small forces in Shiyu City have learned the news. This small hall was crowded before the auction started.

It's full.

This auction is different from those small auctions in the past. The bids for more than a dozen swords, one or two bottles of elixirs, or low-level skills are all from small and medium-sized forces like Qin Clan and Ba Dao Clan. Big forces are interested in these

Things don't even come into focus.

This auction was held to deal with the wolf disaster. The weapons sold were not just one, but hundreds or thousands. Even those first- and second-level weapons were probably in the tens of thousands.

.

"Something is wrong, whether it is the wolf disaster or the reaction of these businessmen, something is wrong."

Looking at the bustling hall, Qin Long sighed silently in his heart, and the young man's cheeks behind the mask wrinkled up.

Others didn't understand the cause of the wolf disaster, but he, who had been at the scene, knew it very well.

There were not many human-soul wolves in Guimen Mountain. Before Kuang Xiaotian fought with the human-soul tiger, he roughly counted them at just over 10,000. Even counting the wolves that had not yet appeared in the back mountain, there were only 20,000 at most.

Most of the 20,000 wolves are still in the Qi training realm. Only the human soul tiger in the Wenhuo realm is extraordinary and can compete with Kuang Xiaotian in the middle stage of Wuhuo.

Such low strength is not insurmountable. The elders of any big family in Shiyu City are in the late stage of Wuhuo. Those family heads are likely to be masters of the Golden Core Realm, let alone the city masters of the Half-Step Divine Pill.

"But why do these big family businessmen act as if this disaster will never end?"

Qin Long couldn't figure it out.

There are only 20,000 human soul wolves. How can the hundreds of martial fire and more than a thousand gentle fire monks in the city be able to deal with them? Unless there is some unknown inside story.

With all the messy things in his mind, Qin Long was waiting for the auction to start.

Two familiar figures sat in front of him.

"Although the wolf disaster this time came suddenly, it was just a group of small beasts that had not yet established a foundation, and the number was not large. It was a threat to ordinary people. The Qin family has a father in charge, is it really necessary to stockpile weapons and elixirs?

?”

Qin Long was sitting in a chair, lost in thought. Suddenly, a familiar voice came into his ears, making his eyes a little more lively.

Qin Cheng?

Qin Long looked forward with some surprise, and the disgusting faces of Qin Fangyang and his son suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"Cheng'er, this wolf disaster is far from as simple as you think. You don't need to say anything, just watch." Qin Fangyang's voice was a little weak, but full of unquestionable majesty.

"Creak."

The enemy so close at hand made Qin Long clenched his fists tightly, and the sound of cracking joints came from his palms, which attracted Qin Fangyang's attention, and he turned to look behind him.

"Damn it, I've been waiting for almost an hour, why haven't I started yet!" Qin Long looked at the booth, his tone full of impatience.

Qin Fangyang heard his impatient tone and looked at the black robe and mask wrapped around him.

This kind of cover-up behavior is mostly caused by monks who don't want to reveal their identity, either they are avoiding their enemies, or they are evil cultivators who are wanted by Shiyu City.

The person in front of me must be the latter, who took advantage of the chaos in the city today to sneak in and buy weapons.

With a faint smile, Qin Fangyang turned his head to the booth and continued to wait for the auction to begin.

Seeing Qin Fangyang's attention shift, Qin Long breathed a sigh of relief silently. He didn't dare to stay here any longer. He continued to pretend to be impatient and got up and left the hall. He entered through the back door again and stood in a remote corner.

Come down.

"Ordinary people?"

Qin Cheng's words just now gave him some inspiration. The threat of human soul wolves is not strong to the monks.

The monks in the foundation-building stage can still escape, but those in the Wenhuo realm can even organize a counterattack to kill the wolves as long as they are not surrounded. Those sects that are attacked can easily drive away the human soul wolves as long as they can find helpers.

Now that I think about it, it is correct that the most vulnerable targets to be attacked by human soul wolves should be ordinary people.

"If it's so easy to drive away human soul wolves, why do these wealthy businessmen want to buy weapons on a large scale?" Qin Long couldn't understand the reason.

While thinking, the lights converged, and under the gaze of countless pairs of expectant eyes, Zhu Luan walked onto the auction stage wearing a red dress. Against the light red background, her originally white skin looked even fairer, and her chest was deliberately

In the opening, the gathering peaks also squeezed out a deep ravine.

However, the monks in the audience were not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery at all. Their eyes were all focused on the red curtain of the booth, looking forward to the upcoming auction.

Zhu Luan saw that no one was looking at him. For so many years as an auctioneer, this was the first time that Zhu Luan had been ignored.

Looking around, she saw that the people closest to the auction table were all strange monks she didn't know, and around the young people beside the stage, there were actually several martial fire realm monks familiar to Zhu Luan protecting them.

Zhu Luan was slightly startled, looking at the unfamiliar faces around her, knowing that things might not be simple. She did not dare to release her spiritual energy to check the other party's cultivation level, but with the performance of those martial fire realm monks, the background of these strangers might not be known.

Simple.

Patting his hands lightly, Zhu Luan showed a professional smile and said: "Everyone, everyone must already know about the wolf disaster. As the largest auction house in Shiyu City, our family has also received a lot of weapons and elixirs in recent days.

In order to make it easier for everyone to bid this time, the Li family auction will no longer auction elixirs and weapons at the same time. All the bidding items in the hall today are weapons."

As Zhu Luan spoke, he raised his little hand lightly. Under the gaze of everyone, a messenger came up to the stage carrying a delicate tray. The lights on the auction stage converged on Zhu Luan's hand, and she held up a small space belt.

"This is the second-level low-grade weapon for this auction. There are five thousand weapons. The starting price is one hundred gold coins for each weapon."

"hiss..."

Zhu Luan's voice caused an uproar in the audience.

"It's so dark!" Qin Long in the audience couldn't help but smacked his lips when he heard the price. The Li family was buying and selling weapons, and they were simply taking advantage of the situation.

The refining of second-level weapons is quite simple. No weapon refiner is needed. A monk in the ordinary realm of martial arts can complete it.

In the market, because the second-level low-grade weapons made by weapon refiners usually cost around forty gold coins, and the second-level high-grade weapons only cost one hundred hoe, Zhu Luan's asking price more than tripled.

"With such a high starting price, aren't we afraid of losing the auction?" Before Qin Long's doubts fully came to his mind, the voice from the front row shocked him.

"Two hundred gold coins a handle."

"Ouch!"

The bidding caused an uproar in the quiet venue.

"Is there anyone who bids like this?" Qin Long was shocked by this person's rich style and directly raised the price by a hundred gold coins, doubling the price in an instant.

After calling out the price, the young monk calmly lowered his raised palm, as if spending millions of gold coins to buy back a pile of waste was nothing to him.

Zhu Luan, who was well-informed and well-informed, was shocked when she heard the bidding price was high. However, she soon understood something. She ignored the chaotic sounds in the audience and said calmly: "Is there anyone who continues to bid?"

Zhu Luan's voice caused silence in the audience.

"Two hundred gold coins, once, twice, three times."

After waiting for a moment, Zhu Luan quickly knocked the hammer in his hand as if he knew there would be no more bids.

After quickly glancing at the unfamiliar monks beside the stage, Zhu Luan gently waved his hand and summoned the subsequent auction items.

From this moment on, the mixed hall auction house entered a strange state.

"Below are three thousand second-level mid-grade weapons, with a starting price of two hundred gold coins each!"

Before Zhu Luan could finish speaking, another one of the young monks in the front row said indifferently: "No need to shout, I will give you a handful of four hundred gold coins and sing three times."

"Uh..." Zhu Luan was a little surprised.

Having presided over thousands of auctions, this was the first time she had seen this kind of bidding method that started at the top.

Out of respect for the auction, Zhu Luan still asked symbolically: "This monk offered four hundred gold coins, is there anyone who will continue to bid?"

Faced with such a sky-high price, there was no longer the fiery atmosphere in the venue. Zhu Luan was greeted with silence. Everyone in the audience looked at each other and no one dared to speak.
