Chapter 2426 Flying Dragon Auction House
One day later.
A news suddenly circulated in the market.
The news is that at noon two days later, the Feilong Auction House will take out the Breaking Sky Stone for public auction at Feilong City in Chouzhou!
As soon as the news came out, cultivators entered the major branch pavilions of Qizhen Pavilion one after another in the afternoon of that day, and even cultivators came outside the gate of the main pavilion. Without exception, they all wanted to verify the authenticity of this matter.
The mountain gate of the main pavilion was closed, and no one was received from the visitor.
The major branches of Qizhen Pavilion are still open as usual, and welcome all customers who enter the store. When a customer asks whether the news is true or false, there is only one statement between the shopkeeper and the reception staff: the news is false, Qizhen Pavilion has never released this news to the public.
On this day, this news was spreading in the wind.
Wang Lun only realized that this was the case after receiving the report from Hou Xiaowu. According to Hou Xiaowu, the senior executives of Qizhen Pavilion did not show any actions in trading the Divine Stone of Breaking the Sky, and Hou Xiaowu did not observe it.
Of course, there may be some secret actions, but Hou Xiaowu's status is too low and he can't find out.
Wang Lun asked Hou Xiaowu to continue to stay in the general cabinet of Qizhen Pavilion. Anyway, this news has attracted a lot of attention in the general cabinet of Qizhen Pavilion. Hou Xiaowu can take the opportunity to inquire about information without being cautious step by step like before.
Later, after disguising himself, Wang Lun came to a branch near the Qizhen Pavilion General Pavilion. After entering, he did hear someone talking about the public auction of the Breaking Sky Stone of Qizhen Pavilion.
"The news suddenly appeared, and then quickly sparked heated discussions. The spread was very wide, and this technique was also used by me before."
Wang Lun thought to himself, could someone else have fabricated fake news?
But what is the other party’s purpose?
He used to release news to make Qizhen Pavilion tempted to make the transaction value of the Breaking Kill Stone and induce Qizhen Pavilion to sell the Breaking Kill Stone at a high price.
If someone is concocting fake news now, the purpose will be difficult to guess clearly. If the other party does this, Qizhen Pavilion will not be fooled. The other party’s purpose is to lead some people to Feilong City in Chouzhou?
"I thought about taking advantage of the current popularity caused by the God of Breaking the Sky and taking advantage of the troubled waters?"
Wang Lun couldn't figure it out.
Of course, the one who made the news might be Qizhen Pavilion itself, in order to divert attention and arrange a false auction to make people go over. When people go over, they will naturally understand that Qizhen Pavilion has no intention of trading the Sky-Breaking Divine Stone.
"It's true, false, false, true, now it's impossible to tell who released the news."
"But the news said that in two days, I will be auctioning the Breaking Sky Stone in Feilong City. I'm going to go anyway."
Speaking of which, this sudden news sounds quite formal, and it looks like that. Because the news also has some limited content attached, that is, the Feilong Auction House will only hold this auction on that day. The identity of the buyer will be checked one hour before the auction. The buyer can disguise himself and hide his true identity, but he must present the treasures intended for auction in a separate room as a level. The treasures are limited to four categories: spiritual medicine, elixir, magic weapon, and magic weapon. Among them, the number of spiritual medicines and elixirs is not limited, but the level must both reach the level of holy products, that is, the level of holy weapons and magic weapons.
The level of magic weapon must be the lowest level of magic weapon.
As for magic tools, there are no specific grade requirements, but they must be very special. They will be evaluated by the personnel in the small room and meet the requirements.
Only practitioners who carry the above four items and have passed the inspection can be allowed to enter the auction hall of the auction house and participate in the auction.
It is precisely because of such detailed limited content that this message sounds very true.
Wang Lun had already thought about it and had to go through it in advance no matter whether the news was true or false.
Chouzhou is far away from Qizhen Pavilion. Wang Lun waited on the spot for a long time, but did not get the latest news from Hou Xiaowu, so he contacted the other party.
"Hou Xiaowu, have you not gained useful information?"
"Qi Bi Zhenren, there is no change in the personnel in the General Pavilion now. If someone escorted the Biaokong Divine Stone to Chouzhou, he would leave the General Pavilion from the secret passage. After the escort left the General Pavilion, we, those who were not of high status, did not know. After all, the sect leader and the deputy sect leader often did not show up for ten days and half a month, and did not issue instructions, and those old men often went into seclusion."
Hou Xiaowu said that he could not inquire about useful information.
He stared at the senior officials of the General Pavilion and those strong people. After all, someone needed someone to escort the Breaking Divine Stone to Chouzhou, but he didn't know what those people were doing, so he had no choice now.
"It's not your fault. From now on, your mission will be over and you will stop all actions, but you will temporarily retain the jade slip used to contact me." After Wang Lun flew to Chouzhou, he would not be able to contact him because of the distance that was too far.
Hou Xiaowu, this also means that there is no need for Hou Xiaowu to spy on the information in Qizhen Pavilion General Pavilion.
However, when his operation in Chouzhou is over, he may have to contact Hou Xiaowu before asking the other party to keep the jade slip for the messenger.
On the other end, Hou Xiaowu was silent for a moment, and finally asked in a nervous tone: "Real person, is my... mission really over?"
Wang Lun knew what this guy was worried about and said, "I won't arrange tasks for you anymore. Of course, it's best to forget all the things you have done before."
"Yes," Hou Xiaowu responded quickly, "I will forget those things, keep my mouth on my daily life, and will not expose anything."
The reason why Wang Lun did not silence Hou Xiaowu was that he had never shown any characteristics in front of Hou Xiaowu from beginning to end, so he was not worried that one of his characteristics would be exposed, but was known by Qizhen Pavilion and followed the clues to find him.
After finishing the messaging with Hou Xiaowu, Wang Lun started to rush forward directly.
From here to Feilong City in Chouzhou, your flight time does not take one day, about fifteen or sixteen hours is enough. After arriving, you still have enough time to implement your plan.
...
"Su Qianchou, what's going on with that flying news? Don't you plan to explain it to us?"
In the inner area of the Time and Space City, on an open space, the sect leaders of the twelve major sects, including Guo Qunqi, Mo Changfeng, were all there, and everyone's eyes fell on Su Qianchou, the sect leader of Qizhen Pavilion.
Su Qianchou smiled calmly and said, "It's purely fake news that someone has fabricated. Is it necessary to explain it to you?"
"We don't know whether the news is true or false," Mo Changfeng sneered, "The Breaking Divine Stone is kept by your Qizhen Pavilion, but you don't have the right to dispose of it. I don't think there is any need to judge the authenticity of the news, so please ask Master Su to go back to the Qizhen Pavilion in person, or send someone to escort the Breaking Divine Stone back to the Time and Space City."
"This is OK, I have no objection. I will go back to Qizhen Pavilion and bring the things back, so I will not send people from our sect to escort it, as that is too dangerous." Su Qianchou agreed directly.
But some sect leader refused.
Guo Qunqi frowned: "Now there is a very shortage of manpower. A large number of monks are sent to investigate clues of monks in the lower realm. Master Su cannot leave to do other things."
Su Qianchou said before Mo Changfeng: "I will not send people from this sect to escort the Bangkong Divine Stone. If something goes wrong, the responsibility is all for my Qizhen Pavilion. Either you send someone to Qizhen Pavilion to get the Bangkong Divine Stone, or you can guard the Bangkong Divine Stone, or you will go to Qizhen Pavilion in person."
"I'm talking nonsense." Mo Changfeng snorted coldly. Guo Qunqi was right. Now there is a shortage of manpower, so how can there be any extra people doing this?
"So I don't understand. You guys come to question me. Doing this is a waste of time, so why are you embarrassed to say I'm talking nonsense?" Su Qianchou frowned and asked, obviously a little angry.
The sect leaders were a little embarrassed, so the topic had to return to the news again.
"Sect Master Su, it's important. We need to make sure that the news has nothing to do with your Qizhen Pavilion. Qizhen Pavilion will not secretly trade the Breaking Knight Stone." Guo Qunqi had no choice but to say so.
"I know it's important, so I won't make mistakes in such matters. Don't worry." Su Qianchou's face improved, and he seemed to think that discussing this way was to respect him.
In fact, Su Qianchou no longer felt that the Sky-Breaking Divine Stone was the first dangerous factor that threatened the space-time channel. Since the spiritual world appeared in the lower realm monks carried the Thousand Destroy Spirit Sword from the lower realm, the biggest factor that threatened the space-time channel was the person who created the Thousand Destroy Spirit Sword to return to the spirit world bizarrely. After all, now only this space-time channel can directly connect the spirit world with other realms. In the eyes of the enemy, this space-time channel is something that must be seized or destroyed, and its importance ranks first in all things in the spiritual world.
As for a divine stone that breaks the air, it has really turned into a divine stone that breaks the air in my mind. Even if someone seizes the entire divine stone, it is impossible to use it to act in a demon in the time and space city in a dignified manner. What's more, he only plans to use one-third of the divine stone to try to exchange for the special treasures needed by Qizhen Pavilion.
The best way to change it is, the Sky-Breaking Divine Stone can still retain two-thirds of the Sky-Breaking Divine Stone can occupy the big head. The enemy is holding a mere third of the Sky-Breaking Divine Stone and cannot do anything that can threaten the space-time channel.
It doesn’t matter if you can’t change it. At worst, you can take that third of the part back to Qizhen Pavilion and make up for it.
So he just made a simple measurement and made the decision to let other senior executives of the sect implement the transaction. After all, it was because the threat level of the Breaking Sky Stone to the space-time channel has dropped a lot in his mind.
"We are willing to believe in Sect Master Su, knowing that Sect Master Su will not be stupid in such a different story," Guo Qunqi said so, but he still made a request, "Can you ask Sect Master Su to contact the person in charge of the Qizhen Pavilion to monitor the Stone of the Breaking the Sky and make a conversation?"
"This is OK." Su Qianchou agreed and made arrangements immediately.
Soon, the call request sent by the memorial Jade Shop was obtained through Su Qianchou without saying a word, but only handed the memorial Jade Shop to Guo Qunqi next to him.
Guo Qunqi took it and revealed his identity: "I am Guo Qunqi, the leader of the Ling Sect. On behalf of the twelve sect leaders, including me, order you to prepare a safe tool to store the Breaking Divine Stone immediately. We will bring the Breaking Divine Stone back to the Time and Space City later. This matter is of great importance and must not be delayed!"
Su Qianchou next to him suddenly showed an unhappy expression. The other sect leaders could understand, mainly because Guo Qunqi did this, and he was really a bit unfair about the demeanor of the sect leader, and was obviously a person in the Eqizhen Pavilion.
But doing this is very useful and can scare the people in Qizhen Pavilion. If the other party has a ghost in his heart, it will most likely be exposed.
"Can I say something to our sect leader? It is very simple to store the Sky-Breaking Divine Stone. It can be done in as much as one stick of incense, but I need to ask the sect leader when he can come?"
The person on the other end said that he would do his job according to Guo Qunqi's request, but he still wanted to talk to Su Qianchou first.
This answer is very normal. Guo Qunqi couldn't find any fault. He covered the jade slip with his hands and smiled at Su Qianchou: "I'm sorry, Master Su, I have to trouble you to make a comeback."
Master Su took the jade slip for the messenger without expression and walked aside to talk. Guo Qunqi and others stood there, no longer planning to eavesdrop. He tried it before, and the people on Qizhen Pavilion performed very normally, and there was no reason not to believe Su Qianchou.
If you show suspicion about Su Qianchou again, you may be making a fuss with anger.
After Su Qianchou finished the call, Guo Qunqi smiled again and said, "Okay, no one will mention what happened just now. After the rest, we will continue to do the important business immediately."
Now there is indeed a shortage of manpower. In the past, every Nascent Soul monk was asked to be a coolie for ten consecutive days. Now it has changed, and the number of days has become twelve days, so as to ensure that the total amount of mana injected will not be significantly reduced.
The sect leader was also forced to work harder and could not only squeeze the Nascent Soul monks, but they did not work harder. Naturally, their rest time was also reduced, and the important matter discussed just now was placed in the original rest time.
Su Qianchou immediately walked towards his residence, ignoring the others, as if he was still angry about what had happened before.
Mo Changfeng curled his lips: "We also want to ensure that the Breaking Divine Stone will not be surprised. Sect Master Su should understand it, rather than feel wronged after being questioned by us."
"Okay, it's normal for Sect Master Su to be dissatisfied." Guo Qunqi did not want to participate in this kind of discussion.
On the other hand, after Su Qianchou returned to his residence, he did not contact the people from Qizhen Pavilion, and knew that several senior officials would complete what they had told him, Su Qianchou was considering how to "recover aftermath".
Regardless of whether the Breaking Divine Stone had a suitable treasure or not, other sects must have known that Qizhen Pavilion held an auction in Feilong City afterwards. At that time, he needed to explain to other sect leaders, which was the "aftermath".
If you do not do well, you may anger the other eleven sects, resulting in the Qizhen Pavilion being targeted, and even the eleven sects may use this to blackmail Qizhen Pavilion.
...
Wang Lun finally arrived at Feilong City. If the news is true, then there is still about a day and a half before the auction will be held.
The level of alertness in Feilong City is not an exaggeration. Although there are city guards patrolling, not only did Wang Lun enter the east gate normally open, but it was also said that the south gate, the north gate and the west gate were also open, allowing monks and ordinary people to enter and exit freely.
Feilong Auction House is near the largest main street in the city. After Wang Lun arrived, he bought a local tourist map in a small shop. He also found the specific location of Feilong Auction House and the approximate layout of the auction house.
This auction house is relatively large in scale. The place where the auction is held is called Feilong Tower, with a total of six floors and can hold twenty or thirty auctions at the same time. Feilong Tower is in the center of the auction house. The front area is divided into places to check the identity of buyers and sellers, places where the insiders of the auction house do business and rest, and the rear area is a place where buyers and sellers can rest and temporarily store auction items.
But there is only these rough information on a map. The specific layout of the auction house needs to be found clearly. Wang Lun first chose to investigate himself and found the highest place near the auction house. He tried to observe the situation inside the auction house from a high point, but found that there was a layer of "film" that was releasing white light over the building of the auction house.
It is clear without checking. This is the formation that is operating, specifically to prevent outsiders from peeping at the daily operation rules within the auction house.
Wang Lun then turned back and went straight to the gate of the front row area.
Non-in-house staff can enter the store only through this door.
Wang Lun was stopped by the heavily guarded guard team. Seeing that Wang Lun did not take the initiative to show the invitation or the tokens of the auction house's internal personnel, the guard directly asked: "What's the point of doing with Feilong Auction House?"
Chapter completed!
