It was almost, just almost, and Lu Jingye was about to burst into curse.
At least he still remembered his identity and that Gao Yue was present. He had already made a fool of himself once and didn't want to lose his composure as well.
Lu Jingye got up, straightened his clothes, looked at Tianyang and said grimly: "Hey, you're a stranger, I don't know where you are from, tell me so we can get to know each other and make friends."
Tianyang knew that he did it on purpose, so he was too lazy to pay attention and simply turned to the other side, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
"What a big carriage."
Lu Jingye snorted and said, "You knocked someone down, so it's fine if you don't apologize. But I asked you a question, but you didn't say a word. Who are you trying to show off to?"
Hearing this, Tian Yang laughed dumbly, turned his head slightly, and glanced at Lu Jingye casually: "You are so sleepy. It was obviously you who bumped into me. In the end, you didn't knock me away, but knocked yourself down. I didn't argue with you, but you blamed me."
"Could it be that you are useless and you want to blame others for not cooperating with you?"
The whole room burst into laughter.
Lu Jingye was so embarrassed that he couldn't help but yell, "Who are you calling useless? If you don't explain yourself clearly to me today, don't even think about leaving here!"
Tian Yang shook his head: "Didn't I just say that clearly enough? It seems that not only is your health not good, but your speech is also incoherent and your logic is unclear. The medical center is not far from here. I suggest you go there for a check-up."
The lobby was crowded with guests, and everyone chuckled when they heard the words.
Veins popped up on Lu Jingye's head, and he pointed at Tianyang and said angrily: "How dare you sneer at me, do you know who I am!"
Tianyang shook his head honestly, spread his hands and said: "May I ask you something?"
Lu Jingye sneered and said word by word: "My last name is Lu, Lu Jingye! Our Lu family is engaged in drug research. The latest generation of Xingyun Supplement was developed by our Lu family!"
"Lu family?" Tian Yang showed a thoughtful expression. After a moment, he shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it."
He had indeed never heard of it. When he participated in the family competition, Yunze gave him a family list. In addition to the other opponents from the top five sects, there was no so-called Lu family among the other families.
What the young man said was the truth, but to Lu Jingye's ears, it had a different meaning.
"How dare you not take our Lu family seriously!"
Lu Jingye pointed at the young man, his fingers shaking with anger.
Tian Yang shook his head and sighed: "You just said I was a stranger, obviously you don't know me. Since we are two people who have never met, why should I take your Lu family seriously?"
"So I think you can't even speak properly. You should go to the medical center as soon as possible."
"you-"
Lu Jingye was so angry that he almost spurted blood. He was about to rush up and strangle this hateful boy to death. At this time, someone behind him said calmly: "Jingye, why bother to compete with someone who can only show off his verbal skills. Your Lu family has a superior status, so you don't need to care about what others think."
Gao Yue!
Seeing Gao Yue stand up for him and speak for his family, Lu Jingye finally felt better. At this time, a broadcast sounded in the lobby, reminding guests that they could enter.
Lu Jingye snorted, took his female companion, and followed Gao Yue into the venue.
Tianyang smiled disapprovingly. At this time, he heard footsteps. He looked up and saw Xia Jinshi, who had changed into a gorgeous dress and was walking towards him.
"Ms. Xia, where is my consultant?" Tianyang asked.
Xia Jinshi blinked: "It's right in front of you."
Tian Yang suddenly realized, "So the special consultant you mentioned is you."
Xia Jinshi covered her mouth and chuckled: "Yes, no
Come on, you can enter now, I'll take you to the VIP counter."
The VIP desk is above the venue. After entering the venue, go upstairs via the stairs on both sides.
When he walked into his own VIP room, Tianyang realized that this room was almost as big as the living room of his apartment.
The room is elegantly decorated and comfortable, with a huge floor-to-ceiling window in front that allows you to directly see the auction area below. Moreover, the window can activate the electronic window, allowing you to clearly see the scene in the auction area.
Xia Jinshi asked Tianyang to sit down on a half-moon-shaped sofa in the middle, skillfully opened a wine cabinet next to it, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Tianyang, what would you like to drink?"
Tian Yang felt a headache. He didn't have the upbringing of an aristocrat, so he didn't know what kind of wine there was. He could only honestly say, "I'll just drink water."
Xia Jinshi was a little surprised, but she still poured a glass of water for Tianyang and put it on the table in front of the sofa: "It's good to drink water. Drinking too much alcohol is not good for your health."
She sat beside him with a dignified posture, her legs together, perfectly showing her entire curves to the boy's eyes.
Unfortunately, Tian Yang didn't even look at her. After taking a sip of water, he focused on the auction area: "Do you know when the sheet music will be available?"
Xia Jinshi was slightly disappointed, but still said, "After the auction begins, some small items will be auctioned first to liven up the atmosphere. As I remember, the sheet music should be the third item to be auctioned."
Tianyang nodded, and asked her how to bid, and Xia Jinshi explained in detail.
The bidding was not complicated. Tianyang had a remote control at his side. When he pressed it, the VIP number would light up, and the host would know.
If you want to make a bid, there is an input interface on the remote control, and you can quote the price the customer wants at any time.
What's more, even if Tianyang doesn't know how to operate it, there is Xia Jinshi. As a special consultant, she will take care of all the trivial matters, including bidding.
"Thank you all for coming to the auction tonight..."
In the auction area, after a few pleasantries, the host launched the first auction item of the night.
Xia Jinshi fulfilled her duties as a consultant and explained to Tianyang: "This auction item No. 1 is an oil painting, an imitation of a painting from the Reverse Realm. It doesn't have much artistic value, but the artist is our city lord, so it is still worth collecting."
"That is, there is very little room for appreciation..."
At this time, the host has already announced the reserve price for the painting.
Tianyang took the photo without much thought.
Xia Jinshi was a little surprised. After all, in her opinion, even if it was painted by the city lord, the city lord had too many works. There was no point in buying such a painting.
Tian Yang didn't think so. He came here tonight for the "Twelve Golden Movements", but if he just took a picture of the music score, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.
So he planned to take pictures of more things to confuse the audience.
Soon, the Twelve Golden Movements appeared. This sheet of music was at least a genuine product of the reverse world and had a certain collection value.
Therefore, the original base price of the music score was 2,000 contribution points, but it was quickly raised to 3,000.
Tianyang took out the remote control, entered a set of numbers, and pressed the OK button.
Immediately, the host of the auction area excitedly said: "Ten thousand, VIP table No. 7 bids ten thousand contribution points, is there a higher price?"
After asking three times, no one answered. The host dropped the hammer and the decision was final.
Then Tianyang took another picture of a set of swords produced in the opposite world. In total, including the music score, I have taken pictures of five things tonight, which should be enough.
In the following time, Tianyang did not make any more bids, but just sat there and watched the auction items one by one.
I went on stage to taste them and listened to Xia Jinshi introduce their origins and values to me, which broadened my horizons.
In a blink of an eye, an auction was about to end. At this time, another auction item was placed on the display stand.
That's a skull.
Crystal skull!
The skull is completely black with a bright sheen flowing on the surface. What is strange is that there is only one eye socket on the skull, and from the structure, it is obviously not human.
Xia Jinshi shrank back in her seat, seeming a little scared of the crystal skull. "This is a product of the opposite world. I heard it was found in a place called 'The Crack' during a family competition not long ago."
Caught in the crack!
Tianyang's heart moved, and when the image of the crystal skull enlarged on the window, the boy suddenly felt a palpitation.
In a trance, he seemed to have returned to the wilderness of consciousness and saw the obsidian furnace shaking gently, with fire gushing out of the furnace and green smoke curling above the furnace.
In the wilderness of consciousness, there was a sound like thunder and tsunami. In the distant sky, lightning flashed and golden snakes danced wildly.
Tianyang felt a strong desire, the primordial furnace in his body wanted to get the crystal skull on the stage!
"The starting price for this item is 20,000 Contribution Points. You can bid now."
As soon as the host finished speaking, he suddenly saw that the VIP desk No. 4 above the venue lit up and announced a set of numbers: 30,000 contribution points!
At the VIP counter, Gao Yue put down the remote control with a smile. The beautiful woman next to him was shocked and said, "Master Gao, why did you buy such a scary thing? Look at it, it's too weird."
Gao Yue laughed and said, "You don't understand. This is a product from the cracks, and it's even rarer than the products from the opposite world. What's rare is that it was put up for auction. It can be said that in the entire fortress, apart from the official fortress, there is only this one on the market."
"My grandfather loves this kind of collection the most. If I present it to him on his birthday, he will be very happy."
Lu Jingye next to him gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Gao has good vision."
Gao Yue smiled and nodded, looking at the crystal skull on the table, already imagining how overjoyed his grandfather would be when he saw it.
But at this moment, the host exclaimed: "One... One hundred thousand! VIP station No. 7 bids one hundred thousand. Is there anyone who can bid higher?"
One hundred thousand contribution points
Gao Yue stood up suddenly, rushed to the fence, and looked towards VIP stand No. 7 not far away.
Lu Jingye also jumped up and shouted, "Are you crazy? He actually offered 100,000. Who is this?"
His female companion said softly, "It seems to be the one with silver hair. I just saw him enter the room of VIP counter No. 7."
Lu Jingye was stunned: "Him? Impossible... I know, it must be the big man behind him who wants that thing!"
At this time, Gao Yue used his star energy and said loudly, "I am Gao Yue, host. Please suspend the auction and allow me to talk to the guest at VIP table No. 7."
In Room 7, Tian Yang frowned slightly and put down the remote control. On the screen of the remote control, there was a set of numbers: 100000!
Xia Jinshi covered her mouth gently with her hands. Until now, she still couldn't believe that Tianyang would actually use 100,000 contribution points to bid for that product from the cracks.
No matter how much collection value it has, 100,000 contribution points have far exceeded its original value!
After all, no matter how valuable the things that Fortress would put up for auction were, they had their limitations.
At this time, Tianyang came to the side of the stage and responded calmly: "I have nothing to say to you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire auction hall fell into silence, and you could hear a pin drop...
