Three days later, the merchant ship of Wan Guo Store stopped at Shangyang Wharf in the Western Regions. Lu Ran and Shangguan Hong disembarked one after the other. The two agreed to go to the auction house together tomorrow.

"Master, why didn't you invite Young Master Lu to visit Shangguan's house with you?" the steward who followed asked Shangguanhong in confusion.

Shangguan Hong threw away the folding fan, squinted his eyes and said, "Are you stupid or am I stupid? The Lu family has a branch in the Western Regions. Since Lu Ran is here, he will naturally go to the branch of the Lu family to stay. It's our Shangguan family's turn to show us hospitality! Besides! Yes, Su Mo hasn't found it yet, Lu Ran must mobilize the strength of the Lu family to look for it, if we miss him without winking at this time, don't get the benefits, it will make people unhappy."

The steward suddenly realized, "The young master is still thoughtful!"

As soon as Lu Ran got off the boat, the person in charge of the Lu family here came to greet him. Lu Ran didn't want to delay, and hurried back to the Lu family branch.

"Young Master, this is a letter from the Patriarch to you." Elder Lu Qi handed a sealed letter to Lu Ran.

Lu Ran took it and read all the news with a frown.

"Any news?" Lu Ran asked.

Lu Qi shook her head, "My subordinates have already mobilized everyone to look for them, and Baihua Building has also hung up notices of missing persons, but there is no news." Since knowing that Lu Ran is looking for someone, the Lu family has dispatched several times People went to look for news about Su Mo, but Su Mo seemed to have evaporated from the world, let alone news, there was not even a shadow.

Lu Ran sighed and waved his hands to let people go down.

On the second day, Lu Ran and Shangguan Hong went to the Wanguo Auction House.

Although Misty Sect is the head of this auction, Wan Guo Shop is solely responsible for all matters.

Once inside, the surrounding buildings were decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, solemn and majestic. Lu Ran sized it up and said with a smile, "Shangguan's house is indeed the most powerful chamber of commerce house in the Tianlan world. Even my Lu family doesn't have the confidence."

Shangguanhong raised his head triumphantly, and said proudly to Lu Ran, "Naturally, I may not be as good as you in other things, but when it comes to doing business, our Shangguan family is definitely the best!"

"Young master!" Several stewards of the auction house saw Shangguan Hong and rushed over to greet him.

Shangguan Hong waved them down, "You don't need to wait on me, today I will personally show Young Master Lu a taste of our Auction House of the International Chamber of Commerce."

After finishing speaking, Shangguan Hong took Lu Ran to Tianzi Building No. [-].

"Actually, my auction house is similar to other people's. The only difference is that my family is well-known. Great sects like Misty Sect are willing to let my family do business." Shangguan Hong poured a cup of tea for Lu Ran and said leisurely.

"Every time an auction is held in my house, the monks around will be moved by the news. The wealth and secrets of all sizes can be auctioned items. There is an absolute advantage in auctioning in my house, that is, there will never be any murders and treasures. Although my family is not as good as other aristocratic families, being one of the top ten aristocratic families is not just talking, as long as you give us your things, we will keep them at a satisfactory price for you!

Of course, if someone photographs something good here, my family will secretly send someone to protect it, so as to avoid the disaster of changing the owner halfway after the item is photographed. "

Lu Ran nodded while listening to him, "I heard something."

"That's a good relationship. Does Young Master Lu have any treasures to auction?" After finishing speaking, Shangguan Hong blinked at Lu Ran with great interest.

With a smile, Lu Ran took out a set of formations from the void space, and handed it to Shangguan Hong, "It really exists, Young Master Shangguan, let's test it out!"

"What kind of formation is this? It looks like an ordinary Xuanpin formation!" The formation is divided into four grades of Tiandi Xuanhuang, and the entire set of formations that Lu Ran gave him seems to be only of the quality of Xuanpin. There is no treasure at home, there is no reason for him to auction such a thing.

The old god Lu Ran is there, "You take it for a test, remember, you have to test it against the spirit stone."

After Lu Ran finished speaking, he stopped talking to him and stared at the more and more monks downstairs, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Just now, he clearly felt a breath of Su Mo, why did he suddenly disappear?

Shangguanhong hesitated and left with the formation, thinking that Lu Ran would never be able to play tricks on him, right?

After a stick of incense, the room was pushed away vigorously by Shangguan Hong. Shangguan Hong's face was flushed, and the light in his eyes was startling. He grabbed Lu Ran's hand eagerly, as if he had suddenly found his old father's child after being kidnapped.

"Lu Ran, Young Master Lu, can this formation really find spiritual veins?"

Just now when he brought the formation to test, he happened to meet a guest in the family. That guest also had a lot of research on the formation, and he discovered the extraordinaryness of this formation at a glance.

"Young master, where did your formation come from?"

"Ah? It was given to me by Lu Ran." Shangguan Hong told Ke Qing verbatim how Lu Ran handed over this formation to him. He also wanted to know what the purpose of this formation was. .

Ke Qing said, "Just by looking at it with the naked eye, my subordinates can already see that it is extraordinary. Since Young Master Lu asked you to try it with Lingshi, it's not too late, let's go and check it out." Ke Qing's eyes flashed a frenzy, With his spiritual eyes, he could only vaguely see that the formation inside seemed to be related to treasure hunting mice, but he couldn't figure out what this meant.

The treasure hunting mouse is a well-known spirit beast in the cultivation world. It has a nose that can communicate with spirits and is very sensitive to spirit energy.Many monks in the cultivation world dream of contracting a treasure hunting mouse, so that they can find a large number of natural treasures without any effort.

Last year, the Wanguo Store in the Eastern Territory auctioned off a treasure hunting mouse at the price of 500 yuan for top-quality spirit stones. In the end, the treasure hunting mouse lived up to its reputation and successfully found a heavenly Xingyue Pill for its master's secret realm. .

If this formation can also function as a treasure hunting mouse, wouldn't it be——

Ke Qing hastily interrupted her whimsical thoughts and regained her sobriety.How could there be such a formation in the world? If it really existed, wouldn't it be a surprise?

As a result, after Shangguan Hong took the formation to test it on a special test bench, he went mad for an instant, and went straight to Tianzi No. [-] room without saying a word.

"Lu Ran, Lu Ran, what is the use of your formation?" Shangguan Hong was about to go crazy, and couldn't believe what he saw. This formation will emit a reminder light when it is close to an item with aura. The thicker it is, the more dazzling the light it emits.

What does this mean?This shows that this set of formations can completely replace the role of the treasure-hunting mouse, and continuously search for genius treasures for the monks.Moreover, and the most important point, treasure hunting mice are difficult to catch and are rare in number, but what about this formation?It can be mass-produced!

As long as Lu Ran is willing, he can create a hundred or even a thousand formations.

"After all, how many spirit stones will you sell him?" Shangguanhong stared at Lu Ran as if he was looking at another huge spirit mine.

Lu Ran froze, a little helpless.Shangguan Hong's appearance as a money fan really resembles Su Mo.This set of formations is still an improved version of the original set of formations for mining spirit mines, and its effect is even greater.If Su Mo knew that he had sold such a cornucopia, would he be pissed off?

"Not for sale, but can be rented out." Lu Ran smiled lightly, "I can make ten sets of formations of this size and store them in your shop. The formations can be rented out, and you and I will get [-]% of the rent."

This set of plans still depends on Shangguan Hong's care for saving his life, otherwise, he would just leave this set of formations to his family and let the Lu family handle the whole process.

Shangguan Hong originally heard that Lu Ran said that the formation was not for sale, so he lost his head at once, but when he heard the second half of Lu Ran's sentence, he immediately cheered up again.Twenty-eight points seems pretty good, after all, he can get countless spirit stones for nothing without any effort.

What's more, instead of selling the formation to kill chickens and eggs, renting it out in this way will allow a steady stream of spirit stones to arrive in the account.

Figured out the key, Shangguan Hong blinked at Lu Ran, with an expression that he didn't expect you to be such a person, "Lu Ran, you are really like this!" He gave Lu Ran a thumbs up, and his tone was very admirable, " I also said that you are no match for me when it comes to doing business, but now I take it back, you are much better than me!"

Lu Ran laughed, but he didn't say that he decided to rent out the formation in consideration of the dangerous consequences that Su Mo knew that he had sold the formation and would never let him go.

Otherwise, according to his past temperament, it is best to keep this kind of profitable business on the line, otherwise it will easily attract people's envy and cause disaster.

"Go and make arrangements." Lu Ran said, and turned his attention to the auction house.

The auction downstairs has already started, and all kinds of treasures are on display one by one. Even a person like Lu Ran, who is used to all kinds of treasures from heaven and earth, can't help being a little shocked.

"Guests, what we are going to auction now is a heavenly body armor!" After the beautiful host finished speaking, he gently lifted a touch of red cloth on the stage, revealing the shiny and aura-like armor inside. .

"This treasure armor is the last work of Master Mo's life. He devoted all his efforts to it. The material of the treasure armor comes from the demons in the Lost Realm. It is said that the scales on it are the heart-protecting scales of a thousand heavenly demons. Composed, the defensive power is very significant, please see—"

After the host finished speaking, a monk in the Nascent Soul stage gave the treasure armor a hard blow, and the treasure armor remained motionless without any damage.

"Wow--"

There was a burst of exclamation from the audience.

"That's right, this treasure armor can withstand a fatal blow from a monk in the Nascent Soul stage! As for whether it can withstand the attack of a monk in the Mahayana stage, it is hard to say at the moment, because our chamber of commerce does not dare to find a monk in the Mahayana stage to test it. A pair of precious armor. But the head of the Mo family once told us that as long as it is not an attack from the peak of the Mahayana stage, this pair of armor can withstand at least three attacks from the monks of the Mahayana stage."

"Yes, you heard me right, this armor can not only withstand the fatal attacks of Nascent Soul monks, but also withstand at least three attacks from Mahayana monks!" The host emphasized again, and then announced in the eyes of everyone, "The bidding price for this pair of treasure armor is - 500 yuan for top-quality spirit stones!"

"I'll give you two thousand!"

"I'll give you two thousand five!"

"I'll give you three thousand!"

The monks in the audience were blushing because of the treasure armor, and they would not give up.

"Is Young Master Lu not interested?" Shangguan Hong said with a smile.

Lu Ran shook his head, he has his own means to save his life.Su Mo needs it, but it's a pity that this armor can only be used by monks at the golden core stage. Su Mo is not good at the moment, and he can't imagine how Su Mo's slender body can wear this heavy armor?He has already written to his grandfather, asking him to send him the family's soft armor of silkworm ice silk. Lu Ran believes that Su Mo will definitely like that pair of soft armor.

The body armor was finally auctioned at a price of 700 yuan for spirit stones, which made people look sideways.It seems that even monks are very pity for their lives.

"The item below is a bit special. Our auction house can only barely discover its extraordinary features, but it is still unknown what it is for." After speaking, the host clapped his hands lightly, and the maid held a cover Come up in a cage covered with red cloth.

"What is it? It's in a cage. Could it be some kind of spirit beast?"

"Could it be a treasure hunter?"

"You are so stupid. If it is a treasure hunting mouse, will the host say that they don't know the function?"

The audience talked a lot, and in the midst of everyone's anticipation, the host lifted the red cloth, revealing a little white fox inside.

"What, it's a fox, I thought it was a baby!"

"That's right, it doesn't look like anything special!"

"Everyone, don't worry. Although this little fox looks ordinary, it is very human. After our tests, we found that it is a fox with enlightened intelligence."

After the host finished speaking, he took out a delicious chicken leg from his hand like a magic trick, and said to the fox in the cage, "Come on, Xiaobai, say hello to all the guests, this chicken leg is yours!"

A flash of anger flashed in the little fox's eyes, and he gave the host a hard look, then buried his head under his tail and remained motionless.

"Everyone has seen it, this little fox can understand human speech, obviously it has already developed spiritual wisdom. A monster with spiritual wisdom must either have a cultivation level above the golden core stage or have extraordinary blood. This little fox The fox is obviously only a small Foundation Establishment, but it is already very smart. According to our observations, its IQ is at least similar to that of an adult. What does this mean? It means that this little fox is very extraordinary, and must have extraordinary talents!"

"I'll give you 1000 yuan for top-quality spirit stones!"

"I'll give you two thousand!"

"Looking at the fox looks really extraordinary, it seems a bit powerful." Shangguan Hong rubbed his chin, thinking, "Young Master Lu, don't you think so?"

"What is it?" Lu Ran looked frosty and kicked away the table and chairs in front of him.
