Chapter 160: Speculation

As the sound of ******** fell, the huge auction hall was suddenly so quiet that even the sound of needles falling to the ground could be heard clearly, and some people's eyes were even more playful, wanting to see how Wanbaolou ended this time, because if no one bid, then the auction was going to be lost.

Of course, some auction houses usually place their own monks in the crowd for the sake of their own face, and if there is really no one to bid, then these monks will act as the auction house's trustees, responsible for the lowest price.

It's just that this method has never been used in Wanbaolou, after all, the auction items taken out by Wanbaolou in the past are all high-quality, and there has never been a situation where no one bids, and this is one of the reasons why Wanbaolou has a good reputation in the Tianhuo Domain. But for now, it seems that this broken tortoiseshell may be about to break this precedent.

"I really don't know what the above thinks that would agree to such an impertinent request from that person. ”

Looking at the monks who were as quiet as quails in the field, ******** couldn't help but sigh helplessly in his heart, although Wanbaolou will also accept this kind of commissioned auction, but Wanbaolou has never accepted such auction items of unknown origin and purpose, in order to maintain its good reputation, but this time it is obviously for some reason that the senior management of Wanbaolou agreed to the consignor of this auction.

After waiting for more than five minutes, ******** saw that there was no one bidding, so he couldn't help sighing, picked up the timpani on the auction table, and was just about to announce that the auction was lost, but a slightly flat voice suddenly came from the VIP seat.

"A million!"

As soon as this price came out, suddenly, countless eyes followed the direction from which the voice came, and finally their eyes fell on Xia Mu, and a little discussion quietly sounded in the entire auction hall.

"If I'm not mistaken, this person must be the one who just took the Void Breaker. ”

"That's right, it's him, does this person know the origin of this broken tortoise shell?"

"Who knows, maybe people just have a lot of money, and it is unknown to buy it back as a collector's item. ”

Not only the monks in the ordinary seats below, but even some of the VIPs in the VIP seats looked at Xia Mu in a little surprise, and then their eyes flickered, revealing a touch of deep thought.

Blood Demon Sect Young Sect Master Xue Ling slowly retracted his gaze, but his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, like everyone else, he was also a little unsure whether Xia Mu really knew the origin of this broken tortoise shell, or if he had too many spirit stones in his hand, and he was going to buy it back as a collector's item. After all, he himself has this kind of hobby, but this broken tortoiseshell is not his favorite type, so he has not bid. And according to the past practice, the starting price of auction items like this kind of auction that I don't know what kind of use it has is generally around 100,000, and this time Wanbaolou didn't know what was crazy, and set the starting price at 1 million.

This is what he does not understand at the moment, and it is what most monks do not understand. However, one thing is certain, because the price is too high, even if anyone is interested in the origin of this broken tortoise shell, they are not willing to spend so much money to bid.

In addition to the blood ling, on the other side, the woman in green glanced at him meaningfully after seeing that it was Xia Mu who was asking for the price, and then retracted her gaze, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a meaningful smile.

"Miss, this person ......" Behind the woman in green, the old woman in the immortal realm rarely spoke, but she was interrupted by the woman in green as soon as she was halfway through her words.

"Whether it's this person or not, wait and see. The woman in green smiled lightly, but the gaze in her eyes seemed to be sixty percent certain.

Then his gaze shifted, seemingly inadvertently sweeping over each of the monks in the VIP seat, his eyes flickering.

On the auction platform, hearing someone bidding, the ******** couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, at least the first unsuccessful auction since the establishment of Wanbaolou was not born in his hands, which made his gaze look at Xia Mu was also a little softer, and then he looked around the field and said, "That Taoist friend bid one million just now, does anyone still want to increase the price?"

Hearing the ******** words, countless people rolled their eyes at the moment, after all, a million spirit stones are not cabbage on the side of the road, even if someone is interested in this broken tortoise shell, they will not pay such a high price.

Perhaps he also expected this situation, so after a routine inquiry, ******** picked up the timpani in his hand and prepared to knock it down.

"Wait. ”

A faint voice came from the VIP seat, which slowed down the movements of De ********'s hand, and then looked at the VIP seat, but saw that it was the woman in green who could stop talking, her eyes flickered, and she immediately said, "Daoist friend, this is?"

Hearing this, the woman in green said lightly: "It's nothing, I just think that with the material of this broken tortoise shell, it may be used to create a defensive spirit weapon, so I also want to participate in the auction, one and a half million." ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, although by now, everyone knew that the woman in green was rich, but this kind of direct price increase of 500,000 yuan still refreshed everyone's perception of it.

On the soft seat, Xia Mu's originally excited eyes suddenly became sharp, and then his eyes closed slightly, and when he opened them again, he regained his calm again, and said lightly: "Two million." ”

Xia Mu's price increase made the corner of the woman in green show a smile on her mouth.

"Three million. Calm words came out of the mouth of the woman in green, so indifferent, it really seemed that she had treated three million spirit stones as cabbage on the side of the road.

The woman in green directly raised the price by one million, which suddenly made the eyes of the audience a little numb, but she didn't care, just glanced at Xia Mu inadvertently.

At this glance, Xia Mu, who just wanted to increase the price, jumped in his heart, and suddenly thought of something that made him shudder. If the tortoise shell was deliberately put up for auction, then the matter would be a big deal.

He thought about it for a while, if he wanted to collect all the remaining broken tortoise shells, then it would definitely be a good idea to take out the broken tortoise shells and auction them, the purpose was unknown and the starting price was set at one million, if there were still people bidding in such a situation, then the person who was bidding might have other broken tortoise shells himself.

Thinking about it like this, Xia Mu couldn't help but feel a little shocked in his heart, although this was just his guess, but if this was the case, maybe he had been exposed at this moment.

Slowly exhaling, Xia Mu forcibly suppressed the thought surging in his heart, looked at the woman in green with his eyes, and said with a light smile: "A gentleman does not take the favor of others, since Daoyou likes this broken tortoise shell so much, then I choose the beauty of adults, and this tortoise shell will be given to Miss." ”

After speaking, Xia Mu raised the wine glass in his hand and gestured in the direction where the woman in green was, showing a gentlemanly demeanor.

"But don't let me guess right. After doing all this, Xia Mu slowly retracted his gaze, if what he expected was right, the woman in green was probably the real owner of the broken tortoise shell, as for whether the other party had begun to doubt himself, Xia Mu didn't know, he could only hope that he had guessed wrong.

And seeing Xia Mu's actions, a touch of cunning flashed in the eyes of the woman in green, this guy was quite alert, and he stopped so quickly.

Thinking like this, the woman in green turned her eyes to the broken tortoise shell on the auction platform below, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

"Hehe, this Taoist friend bid three million, but someone still raised the price?" ******** eyes flickered, and he asked a routine question, seeing that no one continued to bid, he gently knocked the timpani hammer in his hand, ending this inexplicable auction.

Next, several batches of auction items were exchanged on the auction table one after another, although Xia Mu was not interested, but in order to do enough tricks, he would occasionally shout a price, so that outsiders had almost forgotten about the broken tortoise shell here. Only the woman in green looked at Xia Mu from time to time with a hint of playfulness in her eyes.

During this period, there were many good things that mobilized the atmosphere of the audience, such as Sun Essence Gold, Yunling Stone, Divine Soul Fruit, etc. And the bottle of Five Poison Pill that Xia Mu got from the Five Poison Boy also set off a lot of bidding boom.

In the end, it was auctioned at a high price of 5.6 million.

The bidding boom set off by the Five Poison Pills slowly subsided after it lasted for a long time, and not long after, Xia Mu, who had nothing to do eating in the VIP seat, was suddenly attracted by the next auction item teleported out of the light array, which was a set of flying needle-type spiritual weapons, and the whole body was red, as if bathed in blood.

"Is this the Blood Shadow Needle?" Xia Mu's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he slowly sat up straight, and after carefully observing for a while, he finally determined that this set of flying needle spirit weapons was a major killing weapon with the same name as the Soul Breaking Needle, and if used properly, it was enough to seriously injure the sea of souls of others.

And the introduction of the next ******** also completely confirmed the conjecture in Xia Mu's heart, and at the same time, many monks in the VIP seat had a strong interest in this blood shadow needle.

"Hehe, according to the assessment, the starting price of this set of blood shadow needles is set at five million, everyone, start bidding. ******** knocked on the timpani in his hand and announced the starting price of the auction.

"Five million one hundred thousand!" Obviously, there are not a few people who are hot about this set of blood shadow needles, so when ******** announced the start of the bidding, some people couldn't wait to start bidding.

"Five million two hundred thousand!"

"Five and a half million!"

Xia Mu sat quietly on the seat, listening to the rising prices in his ears, but he was not in a hurry to fight, until the price of this set of blood shadow needles climbed to more than six million, he shouted lightly:

"Seven million!"

As soon as this price was shouted, the eyes of the audience immediately converged on Xia Mu again, and when it became clear that the person who was bidding was Xia Mu, everyone was already surprised, because so far, the most frequent bidders in the entire auction hall, except for the woman in green, belonged to Xia Mu.

As for the Blood Demon Sect and the Ice Palace, except for the bidding for the Void Vine Seed at the beginning, there was no bidding in the subsequent auction, and the silence was so silent that outsiders almost forgot the existence of these two forces.
