Chapter 249: The Auction Begins

midnight.

morning.

over the wilderness.

A thick mist appeared out of thin air.

The infiltrating cry also followed.

Not far from the mist, more than a dozen figures stood quietly.

"Brother-in-law, isn't this ghost market really run by ghosts?" Looking at the mist not far away, Su Jin asked Wang Xian.

"You ask me? Who should I ask? Besides, even if it's really a ghost, you don't plan to go in?"

Wang Xian replied with a smile.

These dozen or so people are Wang Xian, Qin Zheng, Jian Ershisan, Su Jin, You Ying and others.

According to Jian Twenty-Three's news, they are here waiting for the opening of the ghost market.

And the cloud of mist in the distance is where the ghost city is.

"Tch, I'm just asking. How could you not go in? Besides, so what if it's a ghost? I didn't kill 10,000 ghosts, but maybe 8,000!" Su Jin looked disdainful.

"What? How do I remember, who came here at the beginning, and was frightened by a bride ghost?" Wang Xian teased.

During the Hungry Ghost Festival, there was a "people scare ghosts" activity. The two girls, Su Jin and Cheng Yao, clamored to scare ghosts, but they were frightened by the bride ghost who appeared behind them and ran back home.

"It's not me! It's Yaoyao!"

Su Jin immediately retorted.

"What is me? Obviously you are!"

Cheng Yao fought back.

"Okay, don't argue, the ghost market is open, let's go there quickly."

Wang Xian said something to the two of them, and took the lead to walk towards the cloud of mist.

The closer you get to the mist, the colder your body feels, just like the feeling of being passed through by a wild monster 'ghost' back then.

"Do you really want to go in?"

Approaching the mist, Su Jin swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Aren't you afraid?"

Wang Xian laughed.

"Hmph! Who said I'm scared!"

Su Jin snorted arrogantly, and walked directly into the mist.

The mist was thick, and as soon as Su Jin entered, no one could see her.

"Let's go in too!"

Wang Xian shook his head and smiled, and quickly entered the mist.

He understood Su Jin's character, he was just a dead duck with a stubborn mouth, and now he was probably terrified.

as expected!

Just as Wang Xian entered the mist, a figure threw himself directly on top of him.

"Aren't you afraid?"

Wang Xian asked such a question again.

"Who said I'm afraid? I'm not afraid!"

Su Jin said.

Wang Xian teased, and said: "You are not afraid, why are you holding my arm so tightly?"

Su Jin: "I am willing!"

Wang Xian: ...

All right!

Very strong reason!

It made him unable to refute.

The figures of other people also appeared quickly. When Su Jin saw it, he immediately let go of Wang Xian's arm, and threw himself into Xuan Yue's "embrace".

Seeing this, Wang Xian turned around and walked towards the depths of the mist, followed by others.

The mist seemed to have no end. Everyone walked for more than ten minutes, but there was still no change.

"Brother-in-law, are you leading the right way?"

Su Jin's voice of doubt sounded.

The others also looked at Wang Xian.

"Just keep going!"

Wang Xian said something and continued to move forward.

Ordinary people would probably give up after walking in the mist for such a long time without feeling the changes in the surrounding environment.

But Wang Xian knew that it was the right way to keep going.

"oh."

Su Jin responded weakly.

After continuing to walk for half an hour, the mist began to thin, and a light appeared not far ahead.

Seeing the light not far away, Wang Xian heaved a sigh of relief, the news on the previous life forum finally did not deceive him again.

"Is it finally here..."

Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief.

Afterwards, everyone speeded up and rushed towards the light.

When they came to the bright place, a market that was not too big appeared in front of everyone.

"Guest, do you need clothes?"

While everyone was observing the ghost market, a figure quietly appeared beside them.

"ah!"

Su Jin subconsciously looked towards that figure, and the frightened Huarong immediately turned pale.

Everyone also looked, except for Wang Xian, Qin Zheng, and a few men, the girls were not frightened.

This is an old woman, but she only has half of her head, and in those parts, beating brains and flowing blood can still be seen.

"Hello, old man, give each of us a piece of clothing." Wang Xian calmed down his beating heart and said respectfully to the old woman.

"Fourteen people, a total of 140,000 gold coins!" said the old woman.

Without any nonsense, Wang Xian took out 140,000 gold coins and handed them to the old woman.

Among the fourteen people, there are a total of ten acquaintances including Wang Xian, and the rest are official people.

After the old woman saw the gold coin, she turned her head in horror and laughed even more scary.

After accepting the gold coins, the old woman took out some tulle and handed it to Wang Xian, who immediately took it.

The old woman smiled at Wang Xian again, then turned and left.

"One piece for each person, covering the body, just like me."

Wang Xian distributed the tulle in his hands to everyone, and put the tulle on his head, and the tulle that fell around it just covered Wang Xian's figure completely.

After the tulle completely covered Wang Xian's figure, outsiders looked at Wang Xian as if seeing a vague ghost.

This is what tulle does, to conceal identities, or more accurately, veil the identities of living people.

In the last life, many people did not buy this kind of tulle after eating. After entering the ghost market, they were deceived or bullied by various "ghosts" in the ghost market, and suffered a lot.

"Wow! Brother-in-law, I really can't tell it's you!"

Su Jin looked at Wang Xian who was like a ghost, and was very surprised.

Immediately afterwards, she also covered herself with tulle.

Others followed suit.

"After officially entering the ghost market, if it is not necessary, don't talk to strange 'ghosts', and don't take off the tulle from your body." Wang Xian instructed everyone.

"Um."

Everyone nodded in unison.

"Brother-in-law, I have a question?"

Su Jin shouted.

"explain!"

"We are all like ghosts now, what if we get separated?"

Wang Xian was startled.

He really hadn't thought about this.

Taking a look at everyone, except for the difference in height, they are basically the same. It is estimated that after entering the ghost market, more people will be the same, and it is indeed difficult to distinguish.

"Contact us at any time through the team's voicemail. If anyone gets separated, please gather at the gate of the ghost city." Nangong Wu said.

"It can only be the."

Wang Xian sighed softly.

This is the only way.

After confirming, everyone walked towards the ghost market.

The ghost market is basically similar to the square market in various cities, and all kinds of things are sold.

However, compared to the items in the square market, the quality of the items in the ghost market is much higher.

Just like in the square market, the equipment sold by 'NPC' is basically white and green equipment, and blue equipment is basically impossible to appear.

In the ghost market, on the stalls, the worst equipment on display is blue equipment, and occasionally one or two pieces of purple equipment, which are legendary equipment.

However, the requirements for these equipments are a bit harsh, and only those of the ghost clan can wear them, which makes everyone very depressed.

Because of [control], although Wang Xian could wear these equipments, compared to the 'Dragon Suit' on his body, the attributes of these equipments were really inferior, so Wang Xian didn't have any desire to buy them.

"Would you like to take a stroll?"

Wang Xian asked everyone.

According to Jian Twenty-Three, the auction won't start until two o'clock in the morning, and there is still a long time.

Instead of being idle, go for a walk around.

Everyone nodded in unison.

They are curious about the ghost market. Since they are here, of course they want to take a look.

"Then let's go shopping separately. We will gather at the auction at around 1:30." Wang Xian said to the crowd.

"Um."

Everyone nodded.

"Old Wang, see you later."

Jian Twenty-Three was the first to run away.

"Brother Wang, I'm going too."

Long Aotian also left.

"Wang Xian, my junior sister and I will also go shopping."

Xuan Ming and Xuan Yue left.

Afterwards, others also left one after another.

In the end, only Nangong Wu was left beside Wang Xian, and even Su Jin and Cheng Yao trotted to a booth.

"Let's go shopping too!"

Wang Xian extended his right hand towards Nangong Wu.

"good!"

Nangong Wu held Wang Xian's hand, and the two wandered around in the ghost market.

The things in the ghost market are really amazing, and Wang Xian is also looking for something that suits him.

He didn't need the equipment, but the skill book surprised Wang Xian a bit.

"How much is it?"

In front of a stall, Wang Xian pointed to a skill book called [Ghost Shadow Hand], and asked the person who set up the stall... Uh, it should be the ghost who set up the stall.

"five hundred!"

"Expensive!"

"three hundred!"

"Give!"

Wang Xian gave the ghost three hundred gold coins.

"Is the bargaining in the ghost market so casual?"

Nangong Wu was a little stunned.

"Hahaha……"

Wang Xian laughed and explained: "Like the square market and the black market, the price of any item has a lot of moisture. However, there is an unwritten rule in bargaining in the ghost market. You can bargain, but you can only bargain once. , if the seller disagrees with the price you negotiated, then you will lose the qualification to buy this item."

"I see."

Nangong Wu nodded slightly.

After leaving one booth, Wang Xian bought a skill book called [Ghost Shadow Step] in front of another booth.

Compared to [Ghost Shadow Hand], [Ghost Shadow Step] is very expensive, a full 30,000 gold coins.

【Ghost Step】

After activating the skill, gain a 10% dodge chance for 10 seconds.

Casting Time: Instant.

Mana Cost: 300MP.

Cooldown: 3600 seconds.

Learn some requirements: Ghost Race, Assassin.

A status skill.

Wang Xian is actually very unfamiliar with the attribute of 'dodge', he just knows that this is a very 'bug' attribute.

It will make the enemy's attack on you invalid, or dodge.

It's like in a battle, the opponent shoots an arrow towards you. This arrow originally hit you 100%, but if you dodge and trigger the dodge at this moment, then the arrow that originally hit you will be inexplicably missing. hit you.

Not only that, dodge can dodge all damage, including range magic, which is why Wang Xian said that "dodge" is a bug attribute.

[Ghost Step] Although there is only a 10% dodge chance, sometimes, it can really change your life against the sky.

After Wang Xian and Nangong Wu walked around for a while, they didn't find anything they were satisfied with again, so they went to the place where the auction was located.

After waiting for a while, the others also came.

There are requirements for the ghost market's auction, and Wang Xian doesn't know what the requirements are.

Stepping into the gate of the auction means that you can enter. If you can't step in, then you are naturally ineligible.

"Let's go!"

Looking at the gate of the auction, Wang Xian also raised his heart.

Can he get in?

It might work!

With an uneasy mood, Wang Xian stepped directly into the gate of the auction without any hindrance.

Nangong Wu, Su Jin, Cheng Yao, Qin Zheng and others also entered one after another.

But Xuan Yue and Xuan Ming were stopped at the takeaway.

In addition, two of the official four were stopped outside.

In this regard, everyone has nothing to do.

After communicating in the team's voice, Wang Xian, Qin Zheng and others entered the auction.

The auction, which doesn't look big from the outside, is extremely large after entering the meeting. According to preliminary estimates, this auction can accommodate tens of thousands of people.

There are also different seats in the auction, ordinary, luxurious, and private rooms.

For this, Wang Xian naturally asked for a private room.

The private room is very expensive, one hundred thousand gold coins.

Moreover, the private room is very small, only about ten square meters.

After everyone entered, it seemed a bit crowded.

However, everyone did not say anything, quietly waiting for the auction to start.

Not long after, the auction began.

A figure appeared on the stage in the center of the auction.

Wang Xian and the others in the private room all showed surprised expressions.

They knew the figure standing on the stage.

It was the old woman who sold them tulle before entering the ghost market.

"This auction is really boring, and such a scary ghost is allowed to preside over it." Su Jin complained.

Everyone nodded.

The old woman presided over the auction, but it made everyone lose a lot of enthusiasm.

Even though everyone felt uncomfortable, the auction was still going on normally.

Everything was auctioned off, and the crowd didn't buy anything because it didn't suit them.

Until, a scale appeared.

This fish scale, according to what the old woman said, after using this fish scale, it can be transformed into a sea clan.

"Sea Clan?"

Wang Xian frowned slightly.

In the previous life, the Sea Clan also appeared, and it was on the New Year's Day of the second year of digitization.

At that time, countless cities near the sea were slaughtered by the sea clan, and countless people died.

Just as the people on land were about to start a counterattack, those sea tribes disappeared without a trace as they had come.

After that, the Sea Clan never appeared again.

"What's wrong? Do you need something like this? Or is there something wrong with the Sea Clan?"

Seeing Wang Xian's frown, Nangong Wu asked softly in Wang Xian's ear.

"No problem, let's see how the price of this scale is!"

Wang Xian shook his head.

The matter of the Sea Clan can be regarded as a pain in the hearts of countless Blue Stars, but compared to the land, the sea has become more mysterious and dangerous after digitization!
