Chapter 196 Wrapping a hundred thousand guan, riding a crane to Yangzhou
Between the changing light and shadow, the mist has not completely dissipated, and the bright and magnificent golden jade glow faintly greets the eyes.
The painting pavilions and vermilion buildings face each other, the red peaches and green willows hang down the fragrant tents, and the sound of silk and bamboo lingers, there is a unique cave in this dancing palace.
Dozens of luxurious and exquisite huge painting boats are suspended between the clouds and mist, slowly rotating around a lake of spirit wine, hundreds of beautiful women who are sinking fish and falling geese come and go lightly among the many painting boats, and there is even a half-sized boat hanging above the lake. On the transparent gold and jade high platform, there are about a dozen stunning women who have returned to the true state dancing gracefully. The only clothes on their bodies are the bright red silk ribbons attached to their arms.
The lake under the high platform of gold and jade has a radius of a hundred feet, and it is full of precious spirit wine overflowing with vitality. Just smelling the aroma of the wine will give you a sense of enlightenment.
"Master, do you want to drink? This servant can go down to fetch wine for you."
A timid voice came to his ears, Ji Yuenian looked sideways, and saw a beautiful young girl in a bright red bellyband with red eyes and a delicate expression, which was extremely pitiful.
Her whole body is only covered by a bellyband, most of her slender white jade body is exposed outside, as long as she is gently pulled, she will be truly naked.
At this time, Ji Yuenian was also on a painting boat between the clouds and mist. Looking down from the ship's side, he could just enjoy the wonderful singing and dancing on the golden and jade platform.
It's just that a mere sixty-five primeval stones can only feast your eyes, if you want to enjoy the girl in front of you, or get some wine to drink, you need to spend at least another hundred primeval stones.
Seeing that Ji Yuenian was silent, the girl in the bright red bellyband curled her lips, her expression became more delicate, mist appeared in her beautiful eyes, and she said in a low voice: "My lord, this slave is a perfect body, only a hundred Twenty primordial stones, you can..."
"Noisy."
The young man in the moyuan cloud-patterned robe looked away from the golden and jade platform, turned his head and glanced at the girl lightly.
In that instant, the azure blue mist covering his face dissipated, and the cold eyes directly imprinted into the depths of the girl's mind, causing her to shudder severely.
What shocked her even more was Ji Yuenian's real appearance.
Forcibly suppressing her fear and cowardice, the girl stretched out her hand to pull the tie of the bright red bellyband, her petite body also slowly leaned over, and said softly in Ji Yuenian's ear: "My lord, this slave is a foreigner. Zong Luoxia mountain disciple, but the road to practice is too difficult, I don’t want Yuanshi this time, I just hope that you can favor me and take me away from Tianxiang Xinggong..."
Before she could finish her words, a stream of water mist wrapped her up and rolled her into a corner.
After a few breaths, a woman in palace attire opened the door of the pavilion, walked to the side hall of the painting boat where Ji Yuenian was, and smiled at Ji Yuenian who was standing on the side of the boat: "My lord, please calm down, I can make the decision." How about offering two cups of spiritual wine, young master?"
Ji Yuenian was silent for a while, and said softly: "Tianxiang Palace is so famous, but it also pretends to be a perfect body?"
The woman in palace attire looked at the shivering girl in the corner, forced a smile, and said, "My lord has never touched this girl, so how do you know that she is not perfect?"
Ji Yuenian shook his head slightly, not wanting to waste time on these trifles, but lowered his eyes to look at the golden and jade platform beyond the ship's side and under the mist.
Seeing that Ji Yuenian didn't pay attention to her, the woman in the palace dress felt a little annoyed, but the rules of Tianxiang's palace were extremely strict, even if she was a little displeased, she didn't dare to point fingers at Ji Yuenian at all.
After the singing and dancing of more than a dozen women in the Realm of Returning to the True Realm on the golden and jade platform ended, only Ji Yuenian was left in the side hall of the painting boat.
"The auction of the twelve Great Return to the Realm Lanterns in Pianwu Palace is open, and you can bid now."
A soft female voice came indistinctly between the clouds and mist, and more than a dozen women on the high platform also stopped singing and dancing, and knelt down on the edge of the jade steps of the high platform obediently, so that the creatures in the dozens of painted boats in the sky could Very clearly see their appearance and figure.
"The first lantern, cultivated to the Great Return to the True Realm, the fifth rank of the Heart Fire Sequence, and the blood of the Shark Demon."
As the female voice spread throughout the Pianwu Palace, a woman in a jasper dress also walked to the center of the golden jade platform with an extremely calm expression.
With the opening of Quexuan City in the Tongming Palace, the Pianwu Palace located on the first floor of Tianxiang Xinggong also held a lantern festival that lasted for three days. The women in the realm were auctioned off as lanterns, and Ji Yuenian entered the Pianwu Palace at this moment, but it happened to be in time for today's twelve Daguizhenjing lanterns.
There are more than 20 palaces and pavilions lined up on both sides of each painting boat. No matter which pavilion is located in, the line of sight can easily cross the side of the ship and see the scene on the golden and jade platform very clearly.
"Six hundred primordial stones." The cold and numb voice spread throughout the Pianwu Palace.
In just a few breaths, someone activated the jade jue in the palace pavilion.
If you want to bid to buy a lantern, you just need to put the price into the jade ring, and the jade ring will naturally connect with the forbidden formation in Pianwu Palace, so you don't need to ask yourself.
"One thousand and one hundred primordial stones." It was still the same numb and cold voice.
"Thirteen hundred primordial stones."
...
After just over ten breaths, the price of the Great Return to True Realm Shark Demon has been called to 1,700 primordial stones.
Ji Yuenian looked down at the dozen or so women in the Realm of Returning to the True Realm on the golden and jade platform, still quietly playing with the jade rings in their hands, without any intention of urging the jade rings to bid.
The cultivation bases of these lanterns are all in the Realm of Return to the True Realm, and their aptitudes are also between the fifth-grade heart fire and the sixth-grade heart fire, and the actual price difference is not too big.
Auctions with similarly different prices all have one thing in common, that is, the higher the lantern auctioned, the higher the price.
Ji Yuenian was well aware of this, until the seventh lantern was bought at a price of 1,900 prime stones, and he held the jade ring in his hand a little bit tighter.
The first lantern was sold for 2,200 primordial stones, while the seventh lantern was sold for 1,900 yuan.
"The eighth lantern, cultivated to the Realm of Return to the True Realm, the fifth rank of the aptitude Heart Fire Sequence, and the blood of the human race."
As the female voice in the cloud fell, a numb and cold voice spread throughout Pianwu Palace.
"One thousand two hundred primordial stones."
Ji Yuenian frowned slightly, and directly moved the jade ring in his hand.
"Eighteen hundred primordial stones."
It directly added 600 primeval stones, and within a few breaths, no one bid again.
"The eighth lantern was bought by the seventh painting boat and the sixteenth pavilion at a price of 1,800 primordial stones."
As the female voice fell, a curtain of light flowed from the jade ring in Ji Yuenian's hand, which recorded the bloodline, life experience, encounters and origins of the eighth lantern in great detail.
Ji Yuenian didn't pay much attention to this information at all, just glanced at it casually, and directly urged Yu Jue again.
After a stick of incense, the door of the pavilion of the side hall was gently pushed open, and as soon as the human woman who had returned to the true state entered the side hall, she knelt down and bowed her head, saying: "I have seen you, young master."
