Chapter 15: Breaking the Cocoon (8)
Time passed little by little, and while waiting, many people had already entered the hall on the 99th floor of the building. The seats of this party are all written with the names of the guests, and after they come in, find their places, sit down and wait for the party to begin. In the middle of the hall, where it is also the most prominent, there is an exhibition stand with a red carpet already rolled out. And the staff on this floor also brought up some of the artworks that were going to be auctioned at this party.
However, due to the mystery of the artwork, they are all covered with red cloth at the moment, and it is not known what their original appearance is. Ye Hanyu took Chu Menghan and sat down on the seat of the two of them. It wasn't too far from the position of the exhibition stand, and for Ye Hanyu, this distance was enough.
He looked at the people with the work cards on their chests, and put the artworks covered with red cloth on the exhibition stand, and turned his head to look at Chu Menghan sitting on his right, her eyes kept looking at the exhibition stand, as if she was watching the excitement.
"Night classmate. Chu Menghan said.
"Huh?"
"Since it was Yi Mingjun's father who invited you to this party, that means that you knew Yi Mingjun before you went to school?"
"No, Yi Mingjun did not know until I went to school. ”
"Then how do you know that he is Yi Mingjun's father, not to mention people like him, not to mention this soul realm person who just came to the human world, we have not seen his father in the same school as Yi Mingjun for all these years. ”
"When I heard people talk about Yi Mingjun in school before, I was more curious about this person, so I asked someone to investigate his background. Ye Hanyu turned his head to look at Chu Menghan and said.
Chu Menghan noticed Ye Hanyu who turned her head, her eyes looked away, and her cheeks seemed to be flushed.
"You won't be ...... because of me"
Ye Hanyu sneered: "You don't have that ability yet. With that, he turned his head again and looked at the front of the stage.
Chu Menghan pouted with a little disappointment.
After a while, Ye Hanyu saw that on the exhibition table in front of him, there were already a lot of artworks that were ready to be auctioned. At the same time, there is also a large screen on the exhibition stand, as well as musical instruments such as drums and pianos.
This gathering will not only showcase these artworks, but also some commercial performances. Ye Hanyu knew that most of the people who came here were here for this auction. As for the party or something, it's just an excuse. And the real purpose of this gathering is also to auction the artworks. Therefore, the eyes of those who have come here are basically on the artworks on the exhibition stands, and they even think that they are more valuable than the artworks that were on this level before.
Ye Hanyu, who was sitting on the seat, took out the invitation letter that Yi Zheng had sent him before from his pocket and opened it, and Chu Menghan beside him also glanced at the invitation, saying that the starting time was twelve o'clock at noon. Calculating the current time, it is almost up.
They looked in the direction of the elevator on this floor, and many people had already begun to enter the venue, the seats in the guest seats were almost full, and the lights and music for this party were already in place. As it was about to start, piano music was already playing in the venue.
The guests who were originally present were immersed in the piano music playing, waiting for the party to begin. But suddenly, all eyes were on the place at the entrance of the guests.
Chu Menghan and Ye Hanyu also followed these gazes and looked over there. A mature woman in a black gauze gown was walking towards this side of the hall with a yellow-haired man in a white suit. In the crowd they passed, they were greeted by those who met them.
Only after Chu Menghan, who was sitting in the guest seat, saw them, he turned his head all of a sudden.
"How could they come. She muttered to herself.
"Isn't he the person you want to see the most?" Ye Hanyu looked at Chu Menghan, who turned his head, and said to him.
"But I don't want to see her. She said, with a slightly angry look in her eyes.
"Is it because she hit you yesterday?" he turned his gaze to Yi Mingjun and Liu Ruiqi, who were walking in.
Chu Menghan didn't speak, and she would have occasional silence.
"There are innate racial differences in this world, but these differences are based on their own abilities, and the more you dodge, the weaker you feel. ”
After Ye Hanyu finished speaking, he continued to wait for the party to begin, and after his words fell, Chu Menghan turned her head to look at Ye Hanyu, her eyes seemed to have a lot of starlight, and at a glance it was full of secret words.
It turned out that this person was not as cold as he himself said, she had already discovered that he also had a moment of tenderness.
After Liu Ruiqi and Yi Mingjun took their seats, the piano music played in the audience stopped playing, and the audience became quiet. With everyone watching, the host in a blue dress took the stage.
"Hello everyone, welcome to this business gathering, I am the host of this gathering, before the start of this gathering, I would like to invite our founder of Yishi Group, Mr. Yi Zheng, to speak. ”
The audience applauded.
After the host finished speaking, a middle-aged man in a black suit walked up from under the exhibition stand, but even if he was this age, his whole face looked only in his early thirties, there were almost no wrinkles on his face, and his handsome face seemed to be more exquisite than some of the younger people present.
It seems that Yi Mingjun inherited his father's genes, no wonder he was born so good-looking. However, think about it, if Yi Zheng is proficient in medical skills, he should also know some prescriptions for regulating the body and keeping it young.
On the exhibition stand, Yi Zheng took the host's microphone, the host retreated to the side, and everyone's eyes were on Yi Zheng.
"Everyone. A crisp voice came out of his throat, making it seem like his age was fake.
"Compared with the title of the founder of Yishi Group, I prefer others to call me Dr. Yi, in this profession, to treat diseases and save people's own work, contribute their own strength, so that the entire Meiyun City and even the whole country can get effective medical security, which is also the original purpose of my establishment of Yishi Group. ”
"For this gathering, I also hope that leaders from all walks of life in Meiyun City can further communicate with each other and jointly build Meiyun City better. After the cabaret performance, there will be an auction and then a dance party, so I hope you can relax during this party over the weekend. ”
After Yi Zheng finished speaking, he returned the microphone to the host, and then stepped off the stage, looking at his whereabouts, he should be sitting next to Yi Mingjun.
Then, there were some performances on the showcase, but they were all old routines, and most of the people in the audience wanted the song and dance to end quickly, and then start the auction.
Finally, the last performance is over and the host takes the stage again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have finally arrived at the long-awaited link, the auction link, the artworks in this auction are very collectible, of course, they are also very valuable, who they can spend in the end, it depends on how everyone here chooses. ”
As the host on the stage announced the start of the patting activity, the audience once again burst into warm applause, which seemed to be even warmer than when Yi Zheng came to the stage to speak just now. In the thick applause, the exhibits that had already been put on the stage were pulled off one by one.
Their appearance is gradually appearing in the eyes of everyone. Some of them are even seen in real life. For example, photo frames, hourglasses, Rubik's cubes, and of course, there are also things that usually look more precious, such as crystal sculptures, golden sand, and excavated bottles and jars of antiquities.
Ye Hanyu in the guest seat, whenever a display is presented, he will take a look at Chu Menghan. It's just the afterglow of the eyes. But Chu Menghan had already noticed that since he entered the 99th floor of the building, Ye Hanyu would look towards him from time to time. He was cautious, but he was aware of it.
"Why do you keep secretly watching me?" Chu Menghan said.
"Not secretly, just don't want to bother too much. Ye Hanyu said as he stared at the exhibition stand in front of him.
It's too troublesome? Look at what this is called, I feel troublesome to talk to myself, is this blood devil worth a thousand gold when he says a word, so easy to say.
"That's not what you brought me here for. Chu Menghan guessed.
"Hmm. Ye Hanyu nodded, his expression still unchanged.
"But, why?" Chu Menghan asked.
The last piece of art on the field was also revealed, a piece of jadeite. Ye Hanyu turned his head to look at Chu Menghan and said:
"Remember how I reacted when I saw you last night?"
"When?" Chu Menghan struggled to recall last night's scene.
"When you bleed. Ye Hanyu replied.
Then, Chu Menghan replayed the situation at that time in his mind, and I have to say that his appearance at that time was indeed like a nightmare.
"But what does this have to do with today's activities?" Chu Menghan didn't understand.
"I told you that your blood is not the same as that of ordinary people, and you may be the key to finding the blood stamen. ”
"I remember, and then?"
"I've never been sure about that, but I can only bet that when you see something related to a bloodflower, or when you're close, your blood will react with it, speeding up the flow and making you feel something is wrong. ”
He continued: "And your blood has a natural allure for me, and I can sense it whenever your blood flows faster or whatever, but that's just my guess at the moment. ”
"So, you brought me here to ask for proof of your speculation?" Chu Menghan said.
"Well, aside from that, I do want to know if there will really be a clue to the blood stamen at such a large-scale auction. ”
"How can you be sure I'm going to react to something related to the stamens? ”
"I said, it's my guess. ”
"Did you find it?"
"No," Ye Hanyu shook his head, "Your blood doesn't react at all, although some artworks do have some soul spell breath on them, but they are not the breath of blood flowers." ”
"Soul spells, why can't I feel it? Chu Menghan was a little strange, why she could see the night cold feather that had turned into a blood demon, but she couldn't see the soul spell on the artwork in front of her at this moment.
Ye Hanyu replied: "It's not that you and I can feel the existence of soul spells, just like you can't see Yang Chenglei and Huang Zeqiu, in your eyes they are just ordinary people, and those works of art are just works of art that don't have soul spells attached." ”
"But am I really going to react to something that has to do with a blood stamen?"
"It still needs to be confirmed. Ye Hanyu replied.
Chu Menghan was afraid that she wouldn't be able to help Ye Hanyu anything, although she hadn't told Ye Hanyu much, but she understood that Ye Hanyu had indeed helped her a lot.
"By the way, why do these artworks also have soul spells on them?"
"Both the human world and the soul world have a history of hundreds of millions of years, and no one can be sure when the first soul world person to reach the human world came, and some things were left in the human world by the soul world, which is normal. ”
"You stand that hourglass on the stand. Ye Hanyu motioned for Chu Menghan to look over at the exhibition stand.
The host announced that the starting price of the hourglass was 30 million yuan.
"That hourglass was also left by the Soul Realm people?" Chu Menghan asked.
"No," Ye Hanyu said, "This hourglass is a product of the human world, but the sand inside him is a thing of the soul world." ”
"But in their eyes, this is just an ordinary hourglass, why would it be used to auction such a high price. ”
"Some things aren't worth much in themselves, it depends on what he's been through. ”
The artworks on the exhibition table did not have the aura of the soul spell of the blood stamen, so Ye Hanyu also lost interest in this auction, so he simply explained to Chu Menghan. But the people around them were happy to raise the price.
"Always say such a profound truth, how old are you. Chu Menghan looked at Ye Hanyu, but at the age of twenty, he seemed to have experienced a lot.
"Two thousand years old. Ye Hanyu replied coldly.
"Two thousand ......" Chu Menghan was almost shocked and dropped his jaw, two thousand years old, he was only eighteen years old, this has to be discussed, he must not call him Mrs. Grandpa? Or is he called Mrs. Grandpa?
"But you're twenty years old at best. ”
"In the soul realm, two thousand years old is almost equivalent to twenty years old in the human world, just in the youth period. ”
"However," Ye Hanyu opened his mouth again: "There is no clue to the blood stamen even in such an auction, I really don't know when I will find it." ”
"Then are we going to continue here?" Chu Menghan was embarrassed to say that he hadn't eaten enough in the morning, and his stomach had already begun to resist.
"Wait a minute, after the auction is over, a dance party is over, and the whole party is over. ”
"Okay. Chu Menghan had no choice but to be obedient.
