Jiu Bao City is known as the most prosperous place in the world. This prosperity is not only reflected in the visible assets of Jiu Bao City, but more importantly, it represents the connections, fame, and supreme status in commerce that the name implies.
Passing through the crowded flow of people in the outer city, Su Huai followed Zhang Yuanyuan, wearing a hooded robe that wrapped him tightly, and entered an ordinary tavern in the outer city.
The tavern seemed a bit simple, and most of the people drinking here were visitors like them, or the lowest-level foreign laborers in Jiu Bao City.
Walking all the way to the end of the tavern's corridor, Zhang Yuanyuan reached out and opened the first door at the end of the corner.
Boom!!!
The noisy sound instantly poured into the eardrum.
Su Huai looked up at the endless wilderness and sky in front of him, and a trace of amazement and surprise flashed through his eyes.
This is a completely empty world, with no buildings, completely desolate, the sky is dark, and there are countless faint fireflies flying on the wilderness.
The giant tree that Su Huai is standing on is the largest source of light in this world.
Yes, the giant tree.
The bare branches extend out the lush vines, and there are countless huge leaves on the vines.
One of the treasures of Jiu Bao City... the [Space God Tree].
Each leaf is an independent space, an independent sales venue.
And the ninety-eight leaves that are lit up in the middle of the giant tree are all the venues used for this auction.
At the entrance of each open leaf, there is a small skeleton with a numb expression responsible for reception.
They are not very intelligent and can only follow the established procedures to guide visitors to the auction venue of the treasure they want to bid on.
Su Huai suddenly remembered the little skeleton he met in Rongxia Village.
He coaxed the little skeleton to sell him an insurance policy. Although this insurance policy was not much used, the responsible little skeleton who followed him around and ran east and west still brought a heavy sense of security to him when he first entered the divine domain.
Now it is the fourth year since Su Huai came to the divine domain, and the insurance period has long expired. I don't know how that little skeleton is now.
Most likely, it is still wandering in some corner, selling the inexhaustible Night Demon Suit of the Golden Skeleton Clan?
Tighten the bulky black robe wrapped on the body, and the shadow of the hood completely covers the face. This is also the standard attire for attending the auction.
After all, in such a ghost place as the divine domain, the law can only be used to restrain the weak.
If you really come to the auction with your true face, and if you bid on something that others want to get at all costs, you are very likely to be followed and end up with both money and life lost.
There are many novels where the protagonist attends an auction, and the necessary things are bought by the villain, and in the end, he is angry and kills people to seize the treasure.
The villain spent money, the things were robbed, and his life was gone, which is really a big grievance.
To avoid this situation, it is necessary to hide your identity when attending the auction.
Su Huai and Zhang Yuanyuan entered the auction venue in front of them with the flow of people.
The huge space made Su Huai a little dazed.
Zhang Yuanyuan took the lead, so his first choice was naturally the auction venue for magical weapon items.
It's not time for the auction to start yet, and the venue is full of various stalls. Zhang Yuanyuan looked at the stalls while explaining to Su Huai:
"Every time Jiu Bao City holds a large auction, the venue will be opened about a week in advance. Generally, some strong people who don't have enough funds and happen to have idle items will use this time to sell their own things on the auction venue to raise funds."
"Of course, some people attend the auction just by the way, and the main purpose is to sell items at this largest 'market' in the divine domain."
"I'll go around and see if I can find a leak. No. 9, you can also see if there are any things you need. Here, all forms of conflict except bidding are prohibited, which is a relatively safe area. We can temporarily separate, and then contact with the Origin Ring."
"Hmm."
After getting Su Huai's response, Zhang Yuanyuan went to the market and soon blended into the crowd and disappeared without a trace.
Su Huai, with his hands in his pocket, also started to wander around.
Picking up leaks is an eternal theme of the auction.
Although Su Huai is not a child of good fortune, he has a hang!
Do you know the Insightful Eyes?
But after walking around the venue for most of the time, Su Huai rubbed his eyes and sighed silently.
"A bunch of sharp businessmen..."
The things on the stall are dazzling, mostly some minerals, broken boundary artifacts, Tao artifacts, etc. It can only be said that rare things do exist, but the corresponding selling price is also terrifyingly high.
A most ordinary boundary artifact spear, the selling price in the outside world is only 30,000 boundary coins, and the stall owner here actually dares to ask for 65,000, and it's still a second-hand product, which is simply treating people as pigs. Su Huai didn't even think about bargaining and just waved goodbye.
"Those who don't know the goods are always a minority..."
"To pick up a leak, you have to go to the place where miscellaneous goods are sold."
The little snake and Hei Ye climbed up Su Huai's arm together and perched on his right shoulder.
After all, this auction is facing the whole divine domain, and there are all kinds of strange creatures, and it's not uncommon for people like Su Huai with a contract spirit.
Su Huai turned his head and looked at the little snake: "Miscellaneous goods..."
"Tsk, you're right, what am I doing turning around in a place where weapons are sold."
Scanning his eyes around, Su Huai walked towards the entrance of this auction venue and stood in front of the short skeleton responsible for reception.
"Excuse me, I'm sorry to disturb you."
"Do you know where the place selling pills, the place selling native spiritual medicines, and the place selling miscellaneous goods are?"
"Attendant 15431 at your service." The little skeleton's eyes flickered with blue soul fire, and after a moment of dullness, it handed Su Huai three cards with the numbers [2], [7], and [71] on them, which should correspond to the three places Su Huai asked about.
"Please follow the venue number card guide."
After saying this, the little skeleton fell silent again, looking very much like some kind of artificial intelligence that runs for five minutes and stands by for two hours.
Su Huai looked down at the card in his hand, which was marked with a green dot indicating where Su Huai was, and then extended an arrow pointing in three different directions.
The venue where Su Huai is located is [11], he went out the door and walked towards the nearest [7] venue.
As soon as he entered the [7] venue, Su Huai smelled a strong smell of medicine.
It's not the fragrance of pills, just the pure smell of spiritual medicines, mixed with all kinds of soil smells, and each stall is filled with a faint elemental fluctuation.
Most of the stall owners here are scattered herbal collectors, mostly monks from small forces, and the customers here are mostly very fierce, obviously alchemists or pharmacists.
Walking dozens of meters into the venue, Su Huai stopped in front of a stall.
He suddenly turned his head back to the entrance, and then started a large-scale sweep of the stalls with those eight-grade to imperial-grade medicinal materials.
Encountering rare low-grade spiritual medicines, Tao-grade medicinal materials, and rare boundary-grade medicinal materials, he also didn't let go.
This behavior attracted many people to stop and watch.
But most people just smiled kindly and didn't care much.
It is obvious that Su Huai was regarded as a wandering alchemist without the support of a force.
Those who are supported by a force generally have their own medicinal fields, and the cultivation of low-end and medium-end spiritual medicines is taken care of by miscellaneous disciples. How could they spend such a huge price to buy a large batch of wild spiritual medicines?
This is a big grievance!
If it's a grievance, it's a grievance.
Su Huai just suddenly thought of it, Chu Siyu came to the divine domain, and the materials for refining pills will no longer be supplied by the infinite amount of Yan Yue Xian Zong in the future.
Alchemists are all made by piling up medicinal materials. Even if Chu Siyu has a high talent, there must be necessary losses. No matter how high the talent is, it is impossible to succeed in the first attempt.
Even if you will take a master soon, who knows what kind of character her future master has, in case it is a harsh one, or a stingy one...
Better be prepared, always have to prepare more things for that silly girl.
"Ah-choo!!!"
At this time, not far from Su Huai, a 190
,000-year-old girl wrapped in a light blue thick skirt suddenly sneezed, looking up at the ceiling of the venue with a surprised face.
Her expression was a bit foolish, and in the foolishness, it was full of irritability.
"Is this... caught a cold?"
"No, no, no, I've been the Lord for so many years, what kind of wind can make the Lord catch a cold?"
"Could it be... someone is cursing me!?"
"Damn it, that son of a bitch!?"
