Beast Tamer: Super Lucky Starting Contract

Mo Xu handed over the phone and sighed in pretended anguish: "The trick is too deep. Now, I can only regard it as buying a heroic wood spirit bead."

However, Yu Jingyan and Jiang Jixing could not bear to continue to touch Mo Xu's pain points, so they took the initiative to change the subject.

"How about we go directly to the next activity now?" Jiang Jixing suggested.

"Eat something first and sit for a while. I'm going to hide." Yu Jingyan took a few plates of food and complained, "Originally, my father asked me to invite Mo Xu with an invitation letter, but a young man from Beiyuan City came to visit our house and I had to accompany him."

"I understand. It's just a social event." Mo Xu said, and then curiously asked, "What's the next event? Is there an auction?"

"It's not an auction." Jiang Jixing explained: "There are not many rare treasures auctioned each time, and most people can't buy the items they want. After the auction, there will be a small treasure market outside, where people buy and sell things, barter, and buy information. A number of transactions will occur here."

"There's actually a market..." Mo Xu made up his mind that when he went to the market next time, he would definitely spend his money on Ah Bing. This time, he really had to.

After a while, there were fewer people in the hall. They must have gone to the market, so they followed the crowd.

The treasure market was set up in the backyard of the villa, with hundreds of stalls. The entire market transaction was not under the control of the organizer, who only provided a platform and invited some adventurers, explorers, mid- and high-level beastmasters to cooperate and help the auction expand transactions.

Of course, the materials that can be put in have also passed the qualification verification of the organizer. They are not common goods on the street and have certain tasting value.

"You have to be more careful at this antique market. Even the organizers and sellers can't clearly explain the value of many things. Some people can get bargains, while others spend a lot of money only to find out that the items are just junk." Yu Jingyan was afraid that Mo Xu would be deceived again, so she gave him a solemn warning.

"There are few people who can find bargains." Jiang Jixing added.

"Every failure makes you wiser. I won't do it again this time." Mo Xu laughed it off.

There are indeed some pretty good things in the Curio Market. For example, right after entering, I saw a seller selling the slime of "burrowing worms". This kind of monster lives underground in the desert, and it takes a lot of effort to get it, so it can be considered hard-earned money.

There are also some relatively rare and special materials, similar to the highest-level but most useless ones in each level of warehouse. These sellers are reluctant to sell them to the association center, so they come here to see if they can sell them at a suitable price.

These are still relatively okay. Some materials whose purpose or authenticity cannot be determined at all are very intriguing.

At this time, the place where the most people gathered was where they were looking at a claw bone, which still had extraordinary energy.

Mo Xu and the others also walked over and found that the seller was a monk. He said that the claw bones were dug out after the excavation of the temple.

"Master, are these really the animal bones dug out from under the thousand-year-old temple?" Someone was tempted. The bones remained unchanged for a thousand years, which meant it was obvious that they might be immortal bones.

"Monks do not tell lies. This is indeed dug out from underground." The monk looked calm.

"How much do you want to sell this bone?" asked a rich girl.

"At least fifteen thousand contribution points." The monk said calmly and directly quoted a price.

Fifteen thousand contribution points can theoretically match epic-level materials. If it is indeed fairy bone, it is a very favorable price.

However, if you buy a fake one, all your money will be wasted.

The people here are either rich or noble, and their vision is extraordinary. There is a man in his thirties who is very knowledgeable and speaks directly to the point: "You just want to say that this is a fairy bone, so why don't you ask the Adventurer Association to dig the soil to determine its age, or ask a few masters or venerables to verify it?"

The master was well prepared. He took out some certificates and said, "Of course I have asked for them. This is the verification result of the Adventurer's Association for this claw bone."

Everyone was surprised. The immortal bone endorsed by the Adventurer's Association was only sold for 15,000 contribution points. Was this a charity?

After reading it, I realized that it only said that the claw bone was more than 200 years old, not the exaggerated thousand years, so it was actually not accurate.

The man who had asked the question just now sneered and continued to question: "You only have 200 years. The underground environment can preserve even high-level heroes for a long time, let alone the king level. Besides, if it is a fairy beast, can't we just ask the master to feel whether there is any original breath?"

"The donor is right. Unfortunately, this claw bone only has a piece of bone remnant and there is no complete corpse. The loss of extraordinary energy is too serious and the origin is also dissipated. But it was indeed dug out from the side courtyard of Miaojue Temple. If there is clearly the breath of origin, then the price will not be this." The monk did not refute, but responded with ease and blocked all the loopholes.

Some people were indeed scared. Even if the immortal bones had no original aura, they had many mysterious uses and were very rare materials.

Moreover, Miaojue Temple is very famous in the west and is indeed a thousand-year-old temple.

This is actually a gamble. Fifteen thousand contribution points are used to buy a piece of material that looks like a fairy bone. If the bet is right, you will make a lot of money. But if it is just a piece of a king's bone, you will lose everything.

Mo Xu squeezed in front of the monk and raised his phone: "Master, please take a look. I have seen a claw bone before, which is very similar to yours."

The monk glanced at it calmly, raised his hand and turned off the screen of his phone without making any expression: "Donor, your piece is not bad, but it should not be the same species."

The crowd was a little confused, not knowing why Mo Xu interrupted and talked about a topic that had nothing to do with the transaction.

When he took the phone back, the monk patted Mo Xu's arm twice intentionally or unintentionally.

Mo Xu smiled brightly and made a lip gesture.

The monk's forehead twitched and he nodded secretly, while cursing Mo Xu in his heart.

"What's going on? Do you also have a similar fairy bone?" Yu Jingyan also looked at it strangely.

"I've picked up something similar, but it wasn't an immortal bone, so I just asked this monk to take a look at it. I feel like this guy is unreliable, and there's a big problem with this bone." Mo Xu leaned close to his two friends and whispered.

Jiang Jixing also agreed. He said that this kind of "immortal bone" appears once in a while, and there are indeed real ones, but 99% of them are fake, and it all depends on the buyer's discerning eye.

However, every time someone takes the bait, there is no other way, the sacral bone is almost extinct, and it is very attractive.

Mo Xu saw the monk's reaction just now and concluded that this was 100% fake.

What appeared on his phone just now was not a picture of bones, but a sentence.

“May I ask if your temple’s pagoda has been rebuilt or renovated?”

This question went straight to the heart of the matter. Although the monk did not lie, he deliberately blurred some details.

Three hundred years ago, Miaojue Temple underwent a large-scale renovation, and many areas under the temple were excavated at that time.

The renovation cannot completely disprove the "immortal bone", but as long as Mo Xu asks it in person, the credibility will inevitably be reduced again and the business will be ruined.

The monk obviously had something to hide, and he immediately made a deal. He clapped his arms twice, offering 2000 contribution points in exchange for Mo Xu's silence.

The monk appeared calm on the surface, but in his heart he was already scolding Mo Xu. He had to pay tribute to the abbot of the temple and get a piece of the pie from the organizer of the auction, which would have been fine, but now a little brat showed up and wanted to get a piece of the pie.

Moreover, he had no other choice. The guests at this auction were all of high status and he could not afford to offend them. He could either fail to do business with them or just pay the hush money.

The crowd continued to ask some related questions, and the monk answered fluently without telling a single lie. Everything he said was true, but he led the crowd's thinking further and further astray.

Finally, the daughter of a wealthy businessman couldn't bear it anymore and chose to gamble.

The monk was not in a hurry to trade. Instead, he advised: "Donor, please think carefully. I cannot guarantee that it is the immortal bone, but every word I say is true. As for whether the bone is real or not, you need to judge carefully."

He used a combination of relaxation and tension, and his tactics were very clever, and he even managed to get himself out of the situation.

The wealthy merchant's daughter agreed to continue and negotiated with the monk, lowering the price to 11,000 contribution points. The transaction was completed under the witness of relevant personnel from the organizer.

After the transaction, the monk handed it to Mo Xu, who was still staring at him. He walked over resignedly and spoke under the puzzled gazes of Jiang Jixing and Yu Jingyan.

"Donor, the bone you just gave me is of great use to me. Can you give it up?"

Mo Xu smiled and said, "Master, no problem. The treasure is waiting for the right person. What's your price?"

If the monk had a Zen stick in his hand, he would definitely hit Mo Xu. He forced a stiff smile and cooperated with Mo Xu to finish: "Donor, just say it. If the price is right, I will buy it now."

"Then let's make it 1000 contribution points. Harmony brings wealth." Mo Xu took the initiative to lower the agreed price, playing a trick on his mind.

Moreover, he was indeed worried that if he extorted too much, he would be implicated later.

When the monk heard that the price was half of what he expected, his face really improved. He sighed and said, "You are smart, this is a good deal. It's settled then."

After a few words, the monk quickly transferred the money to Mo Xu. Not wanting to stay here for long, he left.

Yu Jingyan and Jiang Jixing were both dumbfounded. What was going on? After the monk who was suspected to be a swindler sold all his bones, he came to Mo Xu to purchase more?

"I don't know why this monk suddenly took a fancy to my things." Mo Xu blinked innocently.

Jiang Jixing accepted it well and said with a smile, "It's a windfall. I'll treat you to a meal some other day."

Yu Jingyan felt that Mo Xu was usually very shrewd, so how could he be fooled by a "new trick of the Venerable" just now?

Mo Xu was in a good mood and called his two friends: "Let's go, let's go to other places. We didn't take a picture of "Flowing Amber" just now. Let's see if there are any resources related to time."

Yu Jingyan and Jiang Jixing also had this idea. The three of them walked all the way to the end of the market and saw mostly niche items.

Yu Jingyan picked a piece of ore that would help the evolution of the "Golden Rock Sculpture".

There was no time-related material along the way. Just when they were about to reach the end, at the second to last stall, Mo Xu saw something he had always dreamed of -

White pestle!
