Chapter 424: Auction - Carved Dragon Black Sandalwood Pearl

Views:

Among the four families of magic and martial arts in the south of Tianlong Kingdom, the four families used to be relatively balanced, but since a year ago, the Ximen family has developed rapidly, and now there is a faint tendency to become the head of the four families. In the middle of the Ximen family, there is an overly large hall. This hall was built a year ago and has never been used since it was built. Today is its first opening.

The auction of the Ximen family attracted the attention of the entire Tianchen Continent. Among them, most of them are watching the excitement. Everyone wanted to know if the mysterious treasure was real or not, if it was real, who would it belong to, and how the Tianlong Kingdom royal family would react. If it is false, how will the Ximen family end up.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the auction of Ximen's family started in this hall. The huge hall is overcrowded, and any one of them is either rich or noble, because if they don't have a certain status, the Ximen family will not allow them to enter. Among these people, there is a prince of a country, a prominent and wealthy person, princes and nobles, and great families gathered together, and the scene was extremely shocking... Just as the auction was about to start, the entrance of a person instantly attracted almost everyone's attention.

A young man sitting in a wheelchair with a lazy smile on his face. That smile is very shallow and faint, but it seems to have a strange power. Some people will feel a sense of comfort like a spring breeze when they meet his smile, while others will feel a block in their hearts and a strong feeling in their hearts. uncomfortable. And beside him were two women, one tall and one short. The short girl has snow-white hair and two horrific scars vertically and horizontally on her face. Under the gaze of too many eyes, her body shrank slightly due to nervousness, and she pushed the wheelchair in with her head slightly lowered. Beside her was a stunning woman dressed in water blue and with an alluring appearance. Her appearance made most men lose their minds and couldn't look away for a long time.

The daughter of General Weilong in Tianlong City, Yejia Shuiyao, but her identity, her coldness, and many rumors about her made those men dare not even have the heart to move.

Among them, there is a gaze that has been following Ye Shuiyao's body. That gaze contains too many complexities, including sourness, astringency, bitterness, and surprise... More, it has never been seen in these years. There is no fading obsession.

I haven't seen her for three years, and her figure never faded away in his heart, but it became deeper and deeper as time went by. He tried to force himself to forget again and again, but he could only sink himself deeper and deeper. Come deeper. See you again in three years. The mature charm that began to appear made her even more indescribably beautiful, and it also made his heart beat wildly again...

The demon, she is the demon that he can't get rid of... Until Ye Shuiyao was only seen from the back, Feng Ling closed his eyes. Today's auction, he came, and he must come. The confrontation between Tianlong Kingdom and Dafeng Kingdom has already begun, and the appearance of this huge treasure also made the Dafeng royal family feel a little uneasy. Since it is the treasure of Emperor Tianlong Taizu, the Tianlong royal family is very likely to intervene. If this treasure falls into the hands of the Tianlong royal family, it will be a great disadvantage to Dafeng Nation. So today he came to Tianlong Kingdom in person regardless of the danger. There were only two guards with him.

Unexpectedly, here he saw Ye Wuchen and the white-haired girl whom he had watched helplessly jumping off the Soul-breaking Abyss back then, and also saw Ye Shuiyao whom he had dreamed of. Memories of that year, all kinds of complex emotions were intertwined in his heart, making his peaceful heart churn like waves. Ye Shuiyao is the only person in the world who can make him lose control like this.

Ye Wuchen didn't seem to notice Feng Ling's existence, he sat down in a prominent position in the middle, with Ningxue on his right and Ye Shuiyao on his left. His eyes were flat, looking directly at the person on the stage in front of him.

The one who presided over the auction was Ximen Qing, the young master of the Ximen family.

Today's Ximen Qing looks radiant and extremely excited. At nine o'clock, he stood in front of the hall. There were a lot of people in the hall, but with their more prominent identities, no one deliberately made noise, so it seemed extraordinarily quiet. In the silence, Ximen Qing first performed a standard etiquette, and then said with a smile: "Everyone has come from afar, and it really makes my Ximen family flourish. It is a great honor. Today's auction will only sell Four things, what are these four things? Friends, you will know later. I can guarantee that each of these four things will not disappoint you friends. But what I have to mention next is , This is the land of my Ximen family, if you have any unresolved grievances between friends, or any dissatisfaction with my Ximen family, please give me a thin noodle to keep restraint, and everything will be resolved after the auction."

When he said these words, Ximen Qing smiled, without any intention of threatening, nor did he mention the consequences of disrupting the order of the auction. But no one in the dignified Ximen family would dare to provoke them easily. Although Ximen Qing didn't say it clearly, everyone knew that since he said it first, if someone really caused trouble, they would definitely not show any sympathy.

"My father has a cold and is inconvenient, so Ximen Qing will preside over the auction." Ximen Qing gestured to a golden hammer at hand, and it was hard to tell whether it was made of pure gold or a gold-plated hammer. This small hammer is the final hammer of this auction.

After a few polite words, Ximen Qing stopped procrastinating and started the auction straightforwardly. He clapped his palms, and a well-dressed young woman with Huaxin came up with a jade plate, and then walked down. Seeing that young woman with Huaxin appeared, the muscles on Ye Wuchen's face twitched slightly, because she was Ximen Qing's unmarried wife three years ago, named Pan Jinlian. But today, judging from her slightly raised belly, this unmarried wife has become a wife, and she is about to have a child.

The combination of Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian... a perfect match, I don't know what will happen...

Ye Wuchen lifted the brocade handkerchief on the jade plate, on it was a string of dimly colored Buddhist beads, at a glance, there was nothing unusual about it.

"I don't know if my friends have heard of Dahua Temple. Thousands of years ago, the name of this vast land was not Tianlong Kingdom. It was Dahua Kingdom. Dahua Temple was the Huguo Temple of Dahua Kingdom. Then There is a rumor from time to time that there is a rare treasure in Dahua Temple called "Carving Dragon Xuantan Bead", which was left by the eminent monk Xuanhua thousands of years ago. If you carry it on your body, it can drive away ghosts and evil spirits. , a safe life. More importantly, this string of 'Dragon-Dragon Xuantan Beads' hides the peerless skills left by Master Xuanhua back then. Later, Emperor Taizu fought for more than ten years to destroy Dahua, and searched all over the place. I searched the entire Dahua Temple, but did not find the 'Dragon Black Sandalwood Bead', so I had to give up in the end."

"Young Master Ximen, could this string of beads be..." Someone finally couldn't help asking in the hall.

Ximen Qing nodded, carefully picked up the seemingly ordinary string of Buddhist beads, and said, "Yes, this is the string of 'Carved Dragon Xuantan Pearl'."

Although they were mentally prepared, many people in the hall still screamed. No one doubted the authenticity of this Buddhist bead, because even Ximen's family would definitely not dare to falsify in the face of so many powerful people.

Most of them came here for the treasure map, and they didn't care too much about the first three "treasures", but they didn't think that these "treasures" really lived up to the name of the treasure, and the first one gave them a big reward. shocked. The existence of "Carved Dragon Black Sandalwood Pearl" is still recorded even now.

"This string of dragon-carved black sandalwood beads was obtained by chance by an ancestor of my Ximen family. It has existed in my Ximen family for thousands of years. Blessed by the existence of these dragon-carved black sandalwood beads, my Ximen family has been safe and sound for thousands of years. It is rumored that the strange words carved on these sandalwood beads are the exercises left by Master Xuanhua back then. Who can understand these words? , you can get a peerless skill. My Ximen family has tried for generations, but nothing. My father felt that the Ximen family had nothing to do with this dragon-carved black sandalwood bead, so he decided to auction this sandalwood bead. The person who carved the Dragon Black Sandalwood Pearl should be a predestined person who can understand the above exercises."

Ximen Qing's remarks are extremely ingenious, especially the sentence "The person who can photograph this dragon-carved black sandalwood bead should be a predestined person who can understand the above exercises" which is very deceptive. For those who practice martial arts, powerful exercises are undoubtedly a priceless treasure, which is far from being compared with wealth and power. Suddenly, many people in the audience were eager to move. Similarly, some merchants who do not practice martial arts are also moved. What they fancy is its effect of "exorcising evil spirits".

"According to my father's wishes, the auction of this carved dragon black sandalwood bead is only to find someone who is destined to find it, so the starting price is only 100,000 taels. Now the auction begins."

One hundred thousand taels is an astronomical figure for ordinary people, but for those wealthy people, a mere one hundred thousand taels for a rare treasure that has been handed down for thousands of years is simply unimaginable.

"Sure enough." Ye Wuchen said with a slight smile. One hundred thousand taels, a very low starting price, but such a starting price has invisibly deepened the effect of Ximen Qing's saying of "finding someone who is destined", and will make more people chase after the auction. The starting price is extremely low, but the final quotation may be tens or even hundreds of times higher.

"Five hundred thousand taels."

A slightly overweight popular man calmly shouted out an offer that was five times the reserve price. Obviously, he knew that the final price would definitely be far more than one hundred thousand taels, so he didn't want to waste time on the offer. However, his offer caused more than half of the people who were preparing to bid to give up directly. It's not that the price of 500,000 is too high, but that this person...

"Qian Gungun, the richest man in Tianlong Kingdom is also the richest man in Tianchen Continent. Few people don't know his name." Ye Wuchen whispered to Ye Shuiyao beside him. Qian Gun Gun, this is a person who really treats money like dung. It's not because he takes money too lightly, but because he has too much wealth. He is the only person in Tianchen Continent who has never changed his face and burned silver tickets to keep warm. And his property and contacts cover the entire Tianchen Continent and all walks of life. When walking on the bustling streets, his property can be seen almost every ten meters. His influence and financial resources are so great, it can be seen.

Today, he also came to this auction, and when he expressed his interest in this string of dragon-carved black sandalwood beads. There are not many people who compete, not because they dare not, but because they cannot compete at all. Not to mention one hundred thousand taels, even a million taels or even tens of millions of taels are just a drop in the bucket in his hands.

He has two sons, one named Qianqiao and the other named Qianduoduo. All of them are prominent figures above the mall.

"Five hundred and fifty thousand taels!"

"Six hundred thousand."

"Eight hundred thousand taels! I want this string of sandalwood beads."

"One million taels." It was still money, and when he shouted out one hundred taels, it was as easy as taking a breath. Judging from his appearance, it is obvious that he has a lot of interest in this string of dragon-carved black sandalwood beads, and he is bound to get it.
