Looking for you in reincarnation

Chapter 521 Spirit Ring

Kyoto City, also known as Nakagyo, has a vast territory and towering city walls, and is extremely majestic and magnificent.

There are rows of soldiers standing on the city wall. They are wearing armor and holding spears, with sharp eyes, always alert to the movements in all directions. There is also a moat outside the city, with rippling water.

Generally, people who come to Kyoto for the first time will be shocked by its prosperity.

At the city gate, there were many people entering and leaving the city, especially those entering the city. It looked quite spectacular from a distance, with several long queues. Si He and his group also had to wait in line for a long time before they could enter the city.

After entering the city, what comes into view is an extremely wide and long street, known as Suzaku Street. The road surface is paved with bluestone slabs and is as smooth as a mirror.

Shops lined the streets, each one a magnificent sight, decorated with carved beams and painted rafters. The streets were bustling with activity, a scene of prosperity everywhere, seemingly unaffected by the turmoil outside.

Since it was also a cloudy day today, Si He led the horse and walked slowly along the long street to see the prosperity of the capital.

Gao You and several guards accompanied him.

Afterwards, they found an inn that looked pretty good to rest, and then asked Gao You to inquire about the auction of Ruyuan Tower and reserve a seat in advance.

After all, this is Kyoto, not any other city. It would be troublesome if there was no seat. She really wanted to see what else the Jiang family would auction.

In addition to asking Gao You to deal with the Ruyuan Tower matter, Si He also asked several guards to go outside to inquire about the current situation of the Jiang family and the current situation in Kyoto.

After all, it is Old Man Jiang's family. She hadn't paid attention to it before, but now that the scales have appeared, she has to pay attention.

In the evening, Gao You and several guards got things done very efficiently. The seats at Ruyuan Building were booked and the auction would start at noon tomorrow.

Gao You and others reported all the information they had obtained to Si He. Although they did not quite understand why she was so concerned about the Jiang family in Kyoto, the information was still easy to find out.

The Jiang family is a century-old family and was once a prosperous aristocratic family. Their ancestors produced two national masters and two grand masters. However, after the disappearance of the former national master, the situation of the Jiang family became worse and worse.

Now, with the passing of the last Grand Tutor, the Jiang family has split up. Due to the difficult life, some members of the Jiang family have started to sell off their property to make ends meet. However, their things are quite valuable, and they don't want to sell them at a low price, so they let Ruyuan Tower auction them off.

When Si He heard the news, she was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the Jiang family was so poor now.

As for the missing national teacher, she naturally knew that it was the old man Jiang. He was blinded and thrown into an underground cave. If he had not died, it should still be possible to raise a spiritual spirit from him.

However, the time is still too short. Perhaps after a few hundred years, she will send someone to investigate the situation.

After hearing all the news, Si He took a bath and rested early.

……

The next day, the weather began to clear up and became very hot. Si He had no choice but to wear a veil hat and gloves and walk with an umbrella, even though this was quite eye-catching.

Near noon, many people entered Ruyuan Tower, most of them were dignitaries or wealthy businessmen. After all, Ruyuan Tower was a high-end auction house, and the items auctioned were generally quite valuable.

After entering Ruyuan Building and presenting the reservation receipt, Si He and others were taken to the private room upstairs by the waiter.

Ruyuan Tower is magnificent, even bigger and more impressive than the previous one in Wucheng. After all, this is the headquarters of Ruyuan Tower, located in Kyoto, so it is naturally extraordinary.

After entering the private room, the waiter explained the rules of the auction to her. The process was the same as that in Wucheng, and then handed her an auction list.

The auction list is quite beautifully made. It only indicates the order, name and reserve price of the auction items. It is simple and clear. For specific information, you have to wait for the on-site introduction.

However, the information of the owner and source of the items will not be disclosed to protect the privacy of the guests. The rich young man who previously bought the scales only learned that the scales came from the Jiang family through other means and channels.

Si He sat at the table, checking the information of the items on the list. There were treasures, precious objects, and some rare items.

She looked down at each one, and finally her eyes stopped at a name.

Lot 10 - Sun Pattern Spirit Ring - Reserve Price: 500 taels

This item is quite unique, with a very high reserve price, exceeding the price of ordinary treasures and precious objects, and its name is even more special, it is said to be a spiritual ring.

In ancient times, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was abundant and spiritual practice was popular, so there were many spiritual tools with extraordinary effects.

But afterwards, the world changed strangely, and the spiritual energy gradually weakened. It became very thin, and without enough spiritual energy, the method of cultivation gradually declined, and the strength of the immortal sects was much less than before.

Just like the Taiyi Sect in the past, it was called an immortal sect, but in fact it only had more abilities in exorcising evil spirits than the martial arts sects, and its disciples were just a little more skilled, so it was so easily destroyed by the government.

Today's spiritual weapons and treasures are basically used to exorcise evil spirits. Spiritual weapons are generally more effective than treasures, but they are not the extraordinary spiritual weapons as said in the legend.

Of course, perhaps they still exist in the world, but even if they do, they are useless without sufficient spiritual energy.

This spiritual ring might be an ordinary spiritual tool for exorcising evil spirits. This kind of spiritual tool can generally be used by anyone with a little bit of Taoism skills.

However, what is worth Si He's attention is that this spiritual ring has a sun pattern?

The word "sun pattern" reminded her of the patterns carved in the spiritual nourishment land. Basically, most of the spiritual nourishment lands she had visited had sun patterns. This should be the totem symbol of a certain force in ancient times.

If the sun pattern on this spiritual ring is the same as the pattern she is familiar with, then this thing may be from the Jiang family, and perhaps it will be different from others?

After thinking for a while, Si He continued to read. There were some precious artifacts and spiritual weapons at the back, which might have come from the Jiang family. However, there was nothing like scale armor.

Time passed little by little, and soon the auction began.

Si He drank tea while looking at the items being auctioned downstairs. At first, they were all beautiful treasures, but they were not to her liking.

There were quite a few people bidding in the building, it was very lively. The waiter by the window turned his head to look at Si He from time to time, as if he was really expecting her to bid, because as long as she successfully bid on an item, he would also get some rewards.

Unfortunately, she remained indifferent.

It was not until the tenth lot was brought up that Si He immediately looked at it intently. Because the ring was relatively small, it was not very clear from upstairs, so she stood up and walked to the windowsill. The waiter next to her saw this and his eyes suddenly lit up.

On the high platform, on a plate covered with red silk, there was a ring that looked like black jade. The ring was slightly larger, and there was indeed a sun pattern carved on the front.

When Si He saw the appearance of the thing clearly, his eyes became more serious. Sure enough, the sun pattern was exactly the same as the carving in the tomb.
