In Beast World’s minor rainy season, there were bits of rain, a touch of sultriness, and a hint of coolness. The sensations of stuffiness and coolness alternated.
This bit of rain didn’t bother the Beastn.
An outdoor auction was bustling with activity; people were everywhere, both those buying and those just looking on, packing the place inside and out.
As ti drew nearer, more and more Beastn gathered at the auction. So Beastn started to arrive in the inner circle too, including a few wise ones from Myriad Beasts City and so Golden Crystal Beastn.
So of them huddled together, while others, clearly harboring grudges, deliberately kept their distance.
After Grey Parrot and Green Parrot arrived, Bao Lin imdiately waved, "Uncle Grey Parrot, Uncle Green Parrot!"
After greeting Bao Lin, the two parrots made their way swiftly towards Si Yan.
"Mr. Si Yan!"
Grey Parrot and Green Parrot arrived beside Si Yan.
Si Yan said with a smile, "Mr. Grey Parrot, Mr. Green Parrot."
Yin Hong was especially excited and admiring when he saw the two parrot Beastn, and he made room for them.
Si Yan asked, "Mr. Grey Parrot, how’s your puzzle-solving going?"
Grey Parrot said with resignation, "I tried using your approach, but it just got confusing. Once the numbers exceed a few thousand, it does get challenging. I’m afraid I won’t be able to solve it."
Si Yan said with a smile, "No worries, take your ti. There’s still a chance."
Grey Parrot laughed and said, "The auction at Myriad Beasts City is quite rare, and the items are treasures from all over Beast World. It’s indeed worth bidding. Is there anything in particular you’re hoping to bid on?"
Si Yan nodded, "There is."
Xue Lin, who hadn’t been there long, stole a couple of glances at Si Yan.
Since when had his daughter beco so close with Grey Parrot and Green Parrot?
He i whispered to Xue Lin, "Xue Lin, I want blemish balm. I want to get rid of my dark circles."
Xue Lin hugged He i and whispered back, "i i, don’t worry, I’ll definitely get the blemish balm for you. Whatever our i i wants, Brother Xue Lin will assuredly get for you."
He i quietly uttered a sound of affirmation.
As the appointed ti arrived, accompanied by a chorus of beastly howls, the auction finally began.
The first auction item was brought in.
All the Beastn looked at the first item with anticipation, but soon enough, their expressions turned to disappointnt.
Only Si Yan’s eyes, initially showing casual interest, now glead brightly!
It was a green, unprocessed Star Anise Branch, along with a large piece of cinnamon that could be used for a long ti!
"This item is offered by the Mole Rat Tribe from the north. We’re not sure what it is. The starting bid is one Red Insect Crystal," said the Auction Beastman.
After the Auction Beastman finished, the Beastn below muttered:
"Just a bit of wood for one Red Insect Crystal?"
"Is the Mole Rat Tribe trying to rob us?"
"Seriously, who would be the big sucker to buy that!"
Si Yan looked left and right, restraining her wildly beating heart, trying to bid on this item rationally.
Delusional looked down at Si Yan and stroked her head.
Her hair is very soft and pleasant to touch. It seems the little female really wants it.
Si Yan held back from making a bid until the last mont. As the Auction Beastman was about to close the bid, he said, "Old rules, I’ll count down from three, and if no one bids, the item will be returned to the Mole Rat Tribe."
The Mole Rat Tribesn on the periphery hung their heads in disappointnt upon hearing this.
"Three, two, one!"
"I’ll take it," said Si Yan.
The Auction Beastman asked, "One Red Insect Crystal, are you sure you want it?"
Si Yan nodded, "Yes!"
The Mole Rat Tribe’s Beastn on the periphery heard this and excitedly jumped up.
One Red Insect Crystal! They had earned a Red Insect Crystal!
A Red Insect Crystal was worth ten Green Insect Crystals, and ten Green Insect Crystals could buy a wealth of beast hides!
How many exactly? They couldn’t calculate for certain, but it was a lot, a lot of beast hides!
The Beastn of Myriad Beasts City quickly handed the auction item to Si Yan, and Yin Hong imdiately paid with a Red Insect Crystal.
Grey Parrot curiously looked at the green Star Anise Branch and the large piece of cinnamon bark, asking, "Mr. Si Yan, what are these used for?"
She wanted to plant the Star Anise Branch in her space, Si Yan thought. It’s a pity there’s no cinnamon tree branch, but such a large piece of cinnamon bark would also last a long ti.
Si Yan smiled and said, "They have certain dicinal values and can also be used for cooking."
"dicinal values?" Grey Parrot asked incredulously. "Is Mr. Si Yan also a Witch Doctor?"
So wise ones also possessed a bit of Witch Doctor knowledge. This wasn’t particularly strange, but it would indeed earn them greater admiration.
Si Yan said, "I only know a little bit."
When Yin Hong heard that these items actually had dicinal purposes, he held the Star Anise Branch and the cinnamon bark even tighter, as if fearing that soone else might snatch them away.
After all, in Beast World, any magical dicine was especially valuable!
Si Yan quietly asked the Beastman who delivered the items, "Can we in Delusional Domain put items up for auction?"
Si Yan was beautiful. The Beastman had already flushed when he approached her, and now he was stuttering even more.
"You can... of course you can. Every large tribe and city has the right to offer auction items, but we can’t guarantee whether there will be buyers."
"Are you... going to auction off wine?"
Si Yan smiled and took out three small dicine packets wrapped in green.
The Beastman asked, stuttering, "Miss... what is this?"
Si Yan replied, "This is Insect dicine, used for treating insect diseases. Three packets are the dosage for a treatnt course."
The Beastman was shocked. "You, you said... Insect dicine?!"
Si Yan affird, "Mhm."
Not just the Beastman in front of her, even Grey Parrot and Green Parrot were shocked.
Grey Parrot asked, "Mr. Si Yan, this is Insect dicine?"
Green Parrot exclaid, "Are you sure it’s Insect dicine? Are you sure it works?!"
Si Yan nodded her head, "Of course."
Grey Parrot said, "Could you possibly not auction it? I want to buy it now!"
Green Parrot also said anxiously, "Yes, we brothers want to buy it!"
Si Yan was silent for a mont.
After his excitent, Grey Parrot cald down, realizing he had lost his composure. "Mr. Si Yan," he said, "I apologize. During the auction later, I will compete with everyone using my Insect Crystals."
The Beastman took the Insect dicine and quickly ran to the Auction Beastman to speak a few words. Even the Auction Beastman was sowhat shocked. Consequently, the Auction Beastman also ntioned it to the wise ones and warriors providing support from the back.
Then one of the wise ones found Xue Lin and also ntioned the Insect dicine.
Si Yan hadn’t expected that taking out the Insect dicine would actually cause the auction to co to a brief halt.
It wasn’t long before the Beastman ran over and whispered in Si Yan’s ear, "We’re prepared to auction the Insect dicine first, is that okay?"
Si Yan asked, "Why?"
The Beastman replied, "Many important figures heard there’s Insect dicine and just can’t wait to bid!"
Si Yan nodded her head, "Alright, do as you wish."
Beastn in the Beast World were quite simple. If it were her era, such an attention-grabbing item would often be saved to be auctioned last. They wouldn’t auction it out of turn simply because people were impatient.
After getting permission from Si Yan, the Beastman quickly brought out the Insect dicine.
The Auction Beastman excitedly announced: "After our discussion, we decided to let this item jump the queue, as the second auction item!
"It is a magical dicine, a rare magical dicine! It is provided by Delusional Domain—Insect dicine!
"A total of three packets, three packets for one treatnt course, all three packets will be auctioned together!"
Suddenly, the auction hall burst into an uproar!
"Insect dicine?"
"Is it really Insect dicine?"
"My goodness! I can’t believe it!"
