Before Li Xuangang entered the lobby of this building, he was stopped by a monk who looked like a boy in a small cubicle behind the door.
And from the Haitian Bailang uniform worn by this boy, we can know that he should be a disciple of Haichao Sect.
And this Haichao Sect disciple named Wan Shun didn't dare to be careless after sensing Li Xuangang's cultivation during the foundation period.
He said respectfully:
"I wonder why senior came here?"
Li Xuangang knew the rules and was not arrogant just because he was already a monk in the foundation building stage.
So he calmly stopped a few feet in front of Wan Shun and answered:
"I am a casual cultivator who came to Limeng Island recently. I passed by this place accidentally, so I wanted to come in and gain some knowledge."
While Wanshun listened carefully to Li Xuangang's introduction to his origins, he looked at Jongda behind him intentionally or unintentionally. After discovering that he only had the cultivation level of Qi Refining Stage, he stopped paying any more attention to it.
He guessed that the other party might just be a servant of this foundation-building monk.
"Senior, this is no coincidence. Our auction pavilion held an auction just the day before yesterday. If you want to participate, I'm afraid you will have to wait for a while."
"I wonder how long we have to wait?"
Wan Shun had been taking over this task from the sect for some time, so he seemed to be able to deal with situations similar to Li Xuangang's with ease. He continued calmly and said:
"According to the usual rules, the next auction will be held in three months. Of course, the exact date cannot be guaranteed. Sometimes due to various reasons, the auction will be held earlier or delayed.
back."
Hearing this, Li Xuangang frowned habitually. He had originally thought of this to see if it was possible to find higher-level demonic beast essence blood. After all, Zheng Er's cultivation level could not fall behind.
But looking at the situation, this trip was in vain.
Just when Li Xuangang was about to turn around and leave, Wanshun called out to him.
"I wonder if seniors are interested in exchange meetings? Some time ago, our auction pavilion was about to hold one."
Suddenly hearing the term "exchange meeting" which he had never heard before, Li Xuangang stopped involuntarily and wanted to know more about the details.
Seeing a trace of doubt on the face of the foundation-building senior in front of him, Wanshun smiled and explained:
"This exchange meeting was only organized by our auction house in recent years. The senior is not a local monk from our Limeng Island, so it is normal that he has not heard of it."
"But speaking of it, if the seniors are in urgent need of certain materials, this exchange meeting is actually a good choice."
It turned out that the exchange meeting Wanshun was talking about was actually a kind of resource exchange meeting organized by their auction pavilion and only circulated among monks in the foundation building period.
Every foundation-building monk who participates in this event can freely exchange the resources and materials they need at this exchange meeting. Of course, elixirs, magic weapons, etc. are also included in their exchanges.
In the beginning, this kind of exchange meeting existed to meet the cultivation needs of the foundation-building monks on Li Meng Island. After all, with this kind of exchange of resources between monks of the same level, it also reduced the need for them to work alone.
There are a lot of troubles in spiritual practice.
Later, in order to make this exchange more standardized and prevent someone from doing some dirty things during this period, the Auction Pavilion on Limeng Island assumed the identity of the guarantor.
Every foundation-building monk who wants to participate in such an exchange meeting may get a jade plaque from them as long as he pays a sum of spiritual stones to their auction pavilion.
Having this jade badge means you have the qualification to participate in such exchange meetings they hold from time to time.
The role of the auction pavilion is to ensure the safety and reliability of transactions throughout the exchange meeting.
Moreover, their auction pavilion also needs to provide a venue for the participating monks in the foundation building period.
Of course, in order to attract more foundation-building monks to participate, the auction pavilion in Limeng Island also provides some other conveniences. For example, every exchange meeting will be informed in advance through the jade tokens in their hands, and every time they
During the formal auction held, these foundation-building monks can get some information in advance that outsiders cannot know.
This gives some foundation-building monks with special needs a great advantage. After all, if they can know in advance which auction will have the items they need, then the monk can make preparations in advance, and
You don’t have to go to every game and wait to try your luck.
After understanding the operating mechanism of this kind of exchange meeting clearly, Li Xuangang became very interested in it, so after asking about the fees that needed to be paid, he happily exchanged 500 spirit stones for the participation in this kind of exchange meeting.
Field qualifications.
Thinking about it, it is not too difficult to find suitable monster blood at this kind of exchange meeting!
...
Half a day later, Li Xuangang continued to wander around Donghaifang City while rubbing a goose-yellow jade plaque in his hand.
But just as he was about to reach the end of Dongkaibo City, that is, close to the port, three familiar scents suddenly appeared within the scope of his consciousness.
At the same time that he noticed these three auras, the other party also noticed him.
Li Xuangang turned his hand and put away the goose-yellow jade plaque, and then casually put Zongda into the Ziyan corpse coffin.
Since the zombies had been replaced by the aura of refining corpses at this moment, Li Xuangang's actions did not attract much attention from the monks around him.
He raised his head and looked in the direction of the breath. Li Qingyang, Li Qinghuan, and Li Qingshui were walking towards him.
Li Xuangang took a few steps forward and saluted the three of them in a low voice:
"Xuan Gang has met his second uncle, third uncle, and seventeenth uncle."
As for Li Qingyang and the other three, they also felt quite strange that they met Li Xuangang not long after they left the port of Donghaifang City.
However, this place is close to the port and there are many people talking, so it is obviously not a good place to talk.
Therefore, after a brief exchange with Li Xuangang, the three of them were led by the latter to the cave he had rented before.
...
As soon as the four of them sat down in the cave, Li Qingshui eagerly asked Li Xuangang about the progress of his search for the treasure ship refining blueprints.
When the latter slowly shook his head, indicating that things were not going so smoothly, Li Qingshui did not show much disappointment.
Because he himself and his third brother Li Qinghuan had carried out this task before, of course they also knew the difficulty of this task. In fact, he had also encountered Li Xuangang's current predicament.
The topic has been opened, and the four uncles and nephews have not seen each other for a while, so there are more things to talk about.
Especially for Li Xuangang, because he has been alone on Li Meng Island for a period of time, he only knows about the current situation of his family from a few sporadic jade tubes, and it is obvious that the records recorded in several jade tubes
It's definitely not that comprehensive.
Now that he had the opportunity, Li Xuangang asked his second uncle Li Qingyang and third uncle Li Qinghuan in detail about the family's current situation.
After all, compared to their seventeenth uncle Li Qingshui, who has been staying in Binhaifang City, the two of them have been staying on Mount Taiqiu and know more about family affairs.
After a long time, Li Qingyang spoke.
"Xuan Gang, generally speaking, the family has been developing quite smoothly during your absence. Whether it is the mines in Mangshanfang City or the relocation of the Mortal clan members, they are proceeding as planned."
"Especially the Lingshan stronghold on the Hengduan Mountains. In this year, after the fifth uncle decided to increase investment there, some basic facilities there have been built. In addition, the Corpse Ghost Sect recently intends to speed up the new construction.
The city’s construction process is in progress, so there are many more opportunities to earn spiritual stones and other resources.”
Li Qinghuan is now in the middle stage of foundation building. He just came back from the Lingshan stronghold some time ago. He knows more about it than Li Qingyang, so he continued:
"There are now more than ninety people in the family who are permanently stationed at the Lingshan stronghold. Among them, your fourth uncle Li Qingjing is in charge of the affairs. When I left there a few days ago, the Lingshan stronghold was actually producing something. Although now
The quantity is not worth mentioning, but in ten years at most, it will become a new resource point for the family. However, the problem of resource transportation still exists..."
By the time Li Qingyang and the others finished speaking, it was already past noon.
Li Xuangang also sighed after hearing that the family's current problem was that major resource points could not be connected.
He also knows that if this problem cannot be solved, it will always restrict the development of the family.
Moreover, all the family's foundation-building elders are actually very clear that the key to solving this problem lies in whether the family can own a treasure ship of its own.
For this reason, Li Changqing sent four foundation-building elders, including Li Xuangang, to carry out tasks related to the treasure ship, which shows how seriously he takes this matter.
When Li Qingshui told Li Xuangang about the purpose of the three of them coming here, Li Xuangang suddenly felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.
After all, the blueprint for refining the treasure ship is far away, and there is no hope. And the whereabouts of a treasure ship that may be repaired has a real clue.
