223 Auctions

Just as a few people were discussing, the bishop of the church of Saint-Mieu suddenly rushed in, with an excited look on his face, holding a beautifully decorated booklet in his hand, and even ignoring any etiquette, he directly said, "Good news, my lords! ”

The few people who were originally in a bad mood suddenly frowned, they from the Vatican, their status is naturally much more valuable than this one who was sent to Yanjing to be the bishop of St. Mieu's Church, so they are also treated as guests here and enjoy the highest standard of reception.

It is obviously very rude for the bishop of St. Mieu's church to disturb in such a hurry!

Anthony said in a deep voice, "Bishop Hall, we are discussing things, do you have any urgent matters?" ”

Bishop Hall suddenly woke up from his excitement, quickly bowed and saluted, and said, "I'm sorry, adults, I'm too excited to scorn you!" It is really a great joy for us in the Holy See! ”

"What the hell is going on?" Anita said unhappily, the news just now was very bad news for them, and they were worried in their hearts that if all those evil guys of the blood clan learned the "magic" of that mysterious oriental woman, the Holy See had been suppressing the advantages of the blood clan, I am afraid it would be gone! Even more seriously, the Holy See may lose its foothold in the West!

Ignoring the displeased expressions of several people, Bishop Hall hurriedly handed over the beautiful pamphlet in his hand with both hands, "Ladies and gentlemen, please take a look! ”

Jerome took it and handed it to Anthony.

Anthony looked at the pamphlet in his hand, his face became even more ugly, and he didn't turn a page, so he said with a little anger, "Bishop Hall, please explain, this Yanyun auction is a great joy for our Holy See?" Could it be that you are also going to hold such an auction in Yanjing on behalf of the Holy See?! ”

"Nope! Not so! Bishop Hall hastened to explain, "Your Excellency, you have misunderstood! Yanyun Auction is the most authoritative and highest-specification auction in Yanjing is the Huaxia Kingdom, and all the items that are publicly auctioned at Yanyun Auction are priceless things, so I will pay special attention to it. This time, my subordinates never expected that at the most recent auction held three days later, there would be this object......"

As he spoke, Bishop Hall took two steps closer to Anthony's side, and regardless of any distinction between dignity and inferiority, he flipped the pamphlet in Anthony's hand back, and on the exquisite painting on the last page of the pamphlet, a rusty ancient gun suddenly appeared!

As soon as he saw this ancient spear, Anthony's pupils shrank sharply, and the hand holding the pamphlet trembled slightly.

The three white-clothed bishops saw that Anthony was so out of shape, and immediately looked at each other, in their impressions, Anthony was a figure who would not frown before the collapse of Mount Tai, and among the four cardinals of the Holy See, he was also the most calm person, what was printed on that pamphlet, even Anthony couldn't calm down?!

However, the three of them did not dare to ask, so they had to turn their searching eyes to the cover of the booklet - the introduction of the 45th issue of the Yanyun Auction Collection.

Yanyun Auction is considered a top auction in Huaxia, but it is not familiar to these bishops who are far away in the Vatican, so the three bishops speculated in their hearts, is there something that interests Lord Anthony?

Indeed, there was nothing special about that pamphlet. It's just a print about the auction collection.

As the largest auction house in China, Yanyun Auction House, on the eve of each auction, will print such a batch of brochures introducing the auction's collections, which will print several important collections to be auctioned in this auction with fine patterns.

These collections have been commissioned by collectors and some private organizations, but what can be printed in this booklet is undoubtedly extremely valuable, and it has been identified by experts as authentic and authentic, with a detailed introduction.

These pamphlets are generally given to some collectors and individuals who have the purchasing strength, because Bishop Hall is also a collector, and has bought a few collections at Yanyun Auction, and is considered a regular customer of Yanyun Auction House, so the auction house will make a special trip to send such a booklet to Hall.

This booklet is only more than ten pages, each page is a special introduction to the collection, in front of the famous calligraphy and painting, porcelain, jade, jewelry, etc., are marked with the source of the auction items, the expert appraisal results, and the starting price, security deposit and other content, only the last page of this rusty ancient gun, the content of the introduction is unknown, no indication of the source, expert identification, but only the identification of the age, did not give specific results, not even a name, just written two words - "ancient gun", but, is such an inconspicuous ancient gun, but the starting price was set at 3 million Chinese coins!

This is undoubtedly a sky-high price!

Who would spend three million dollars to photograph such a thing that they don't even know what it is? Unless it's the head that's caught in the door panel.

When many wealthy people received this booklet, after reading the previous collections, and then turning to the end, they were a little speechless about the last collection of Yanyun Auction House's auction, and they speculated in their hearts, could it be that this was an eye-catching thing deliberately made by the auction? However, as the top auction in China, is there a must for this?

At this moment, Anthony, who was holding the booklet, finally suppressed the excitement in his heart, and handed the booklet in his hand to Anita and the others beside him, "Come, you can also take a look." ”

Anita and the others couldn't hold back their curiosity for a long time, and they surrounded one after another, and their eyes fell on the ancient spear, all of them seemed to be immobilized by a spell, their bodies stiffened, their eyes glared, and Hall only felt that three pairs of copper bells appeared in front of him at the same time.

This situation made Bishop Hall feel a little proud, look, the adults from the Vatican also have the same expression when they see this ancient spear! However, whoever is replaced, I'm afraid they can't remain calm.

"Like?" Anthony asked.

Anita and the others suddenly came back to their senses, "Lord Anthony, this is clearly just-"

"Yes, it's the Longinus gun!" Anthony's voice was filled with irrepressible joy, "Although it's only printed, I can still feel a special atmosphere through the pictures!" It should be right! ”

"Oh my God! The Longinus gun will actually appear in the East! Cardinal Troy couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh God! Is this true?! ”

"What's impossible about that?!" Anita couldn't hold back the joy in her heart and said, "The Blood Clan's holy weapons will all be born in Huaxia, why won't our Holy See's holy weapon Longinus Gun appear in Huaxia?!" Perhaps, this is the holy weapon that God has given us to deal with those evil creatures! ”

The Longinus Gun, a.k.a. the Spear of Destiny.

This is a sharp weapon that once pierced the body of Jesus, stained with the blood of Jesus, with unparalleled power, legend has it that wherever Longinus's spear went, within a hundred miles, no one could muster up the fighting spirit, even the bravest warriors, in front of this holy spear, they could only bow down!

However, legend has it that the spear was broken into several pieces, and after being reforged, it became several, and now, in St. Paul's Cathedral, there is one of them, and the rest are missing.

Of course, even the Pope would not use that holy spear easily, so this time Anthony and the others came here to snatch the blood tooth, and the Pope only gave them another holy weapon of the Holy See - the "Crown of Thorns".

However, the Longinus gun is far from being comparable to the crown of thorns! If the Holy See recovers another Longinus spear, it will probably be a fatal blow to the Blood Clan! Under Longinus's gun, even if he is a duke of the blood clan, he can only turn into a puddle of pus and blood!

That's why when Anthony and the others saw the Longinus gun, they looked so out of shape!

"Lord Anthony, it seems that the people of Yanyun Auction House don't know that this inconspicuous gun is the Longinus gun, we just need to buy it back and bring it back to the Holy See......" Bishop Hall looked at Anthony with bright eyes, if he really found the Longinus gun, then he Hall would be regarded as a great achievement, maybe as soon as the Pope was happy, he would call him back to the Vatican and give him a white bishop to be a pawn, how good it would be!

"Hmmm! Bishop Hall, you're doing well! Anthony nodded, "Although I'm not sure that this gun must be a Longinus yet, I'm fifty percent sure that it should be real!" We must participate in this auction! You arrange it! When this is done, I will definitely tell you about your exploits in front of the Pope! ”

Bishop Hall was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Lord Anthony! ”

"By the way, the starting price of this gun is three million, and we came from the Vatican, not through formal channels, so we didn't bring that much money......," Anthony mused, "and now we haven't been able to determine whether the gun is real or not, and it's not easy to talk to the Holy See, you see......"

The "incense" of St. Mieu's church is very strong, Anthony and the others have only been here for a few days, and they can already feel that the bishop of St. Mieu's cathedral is simply a "fat shortage", fighting local tyrants or something, even if a few bishops of the Holy See sit up, they will definitely not have the slightest psychological burden!

Bishop Hall scolded in his heart, "A few old fellows who don't pull out a dime! The first credit for retrieving the Longinus gun must be theirs, but even the money is for me! In the past few days, I have entertained a few of you, and the church has lost a lot of money! Not counting the few of you who are squandering here, and now you have the face to loot me again! ”

However, Bishop Hall kept a warm and somewhat flattered smile on his face, "This is a subordinate honor! To be able to recover the holy weapon for the Holy See, Hall is duty-bound! ”

"Fortunately, I just got an account two days ago." Bishop Hall remembered Yun Mo's check, he was busy entertaining these masters in the past two days, and he didn't have time to exchange it, and the amount of money was very large, and he didn't worry about others going, so the check has been kept in his arms until now, although it is only one million, which is not enough for the starting price, but it also made Bishop Hall comfort a little, and by the way, he prayed to God, let a few more local tyrants come to St. Mieu's Church to hold a wedding! Amen!

The local tyrant Momo was smiling at the moment in the Chu family villa with the beautifully printed booklet.

"Jojo, look, this picture is well done, right? Rise?! Just like the real thing! Oh no, it's true! Yun Mo smiled wickedly and pointed to the "Longinus Gun".

"That's a good job, but how can you be sure that those guys will definitely participate in the auction?!" Chu Qiao pursed his lips a little disapprovingly, "Besides, you are fake, do you really want to take a fake to auction at that time?" You can fake this picture, but if you fake it at auction, you will be seen through it at a glance! Do you want the signboard of Yanyun Auction House?! ”

That's right, Yanyun Auction House is actually the industry of the Yanjing Yun family.

Yun Mo smiled, pointed to the picture on the booklet and said, "Is it true that I said here?" Even if it's recognized, it's a big deal! Moreover, this fake, we arranged to shoot it at the end, and when it was taken out, Mo Sang had already rescued Xiao Ai, and our goal had been achieved! As for whether those guys will participate...... You'll find out soon! ”

Mo Sang on the side said in a deep voice, "Whether it's true or not, they will definitely participate." ”

"Look, how confident Moisan is in me!" Yun Mo grinned.

"Brother, don't let him get sucked!" Chu Qiao also laughed.

Mo Sang said unhurriedly, "The Longinus Gun is as important to the Holy See as important as the Blood Fang is to the Blood Clan. That gun is the most powerful holy weapon of the Holy See besides the Bible! The main attack and killing, even if it is me, I don't dare to take its edge! Therefore, they will never miss any chance to recover the Holy Spear! ”

"Ah, that's it! Then it's better for them to pour out of the nest, then it will be much easier for my brother to act! In the church of Saint-Mieu, there should be no one who is an opponent of the elder brother. Chu Qiao pondered.

With Anthony's cautious temperament, their group may not come out of the nest, but Anthony will definitely go to this matter in person! Nothing could be more important than retrieving a Longinus gun! As long as he leaves the church of Saint-Mieu, the white-clad is no match for me at all! Mo Sang said confidently, "I can easily rescue Xiao Ai!" ”

"Haha...... I suddenly realized that it's not bad to have a cow brother! Chu Qiao laughed and said, Yun Mo said sourly, "Isn't your fiancΓ© powerful?" ”

"You, you're terrible! Why didn't you see that you were full of bad water before? I even dared to do anything to deceive and deceive. Chu Qiao looked Yun Mo up and down, "To be honest, have you ever done bad things behind my back before?" ”

Yun Mo immediately made a bitter face, "Qiaoqiao, how can you be so partial?" Mo Sang didn't do anything, just moved his mouth here, I ran before and after, I was busy for a long time, and I was told bad ...... This heart is pulling out the cold......"

"Hey, hey, but, the bad is good, I like the bad!" Chu Qiao grinned, and pinched Yun Mo's cheek with his hand by the way, and Yun Mo's ears immediately turned red.

In the abandoned house in the suburbs, Jing Yue slowly opened her eyes, and after everything in front of her gradually became clear, she was finally sure that she was not dead......

The feeling of weakness in her body made her moan uncomfortably, and then, footsteps sounded in her ears, "Are you awake?" ”

"Lord Byron...... "Jing Yue struggled to sit up, "Thank you, Lord for saving me." ”

"You are already a member of my Bruch family, so I naturally won't see you die in front of me." Byron's voice was not as cold as before, and there was a hint of warmth.

Jing Yue did not speak, and Byron also once said that there are no useless people in the Bruch family, because useless people are already dead.

The fact that he is alive shows that he is still a little useful.

"Come, tell me how you managed to escape from the two Templars." Byron then spoke again.

And so it was.

Jing Yue smiled mockingly, "My lord, if I hadn't been seriously injured at the time, maybe I could have killed them." ”

"Oh?!" Byron said with great interest, "It seems that I am not wrong about you!" How did you do that? ”

"I just used some of the spells of our Eastern Xuanmen, just like your Western magic, I don't know how to explain it to you." Jing Yue paused and said, "I can control their souls and let them fall into a brief confusion. ”

"What?" There was a rare hint of surprise in Byron's voice, "You can control people's souls?" ”

"It's brief." Jing Yue added.

"Between two strong men with similar strength, victory or defeat, life and death, are just a matter of moments, no matter how short it is, it is very important!" Byron said with some excitement, "Jing Yue, can you teach me that soul control spell?" I am willing to exchange a drop of my natal essence blood, and with this drop of blood, you can reach the strength of the earl! ”

Byron's words were very direct, and he didn't hide his thoughts at all, in his opinion, it was worth exchanging a drop of natal essence blood for this soul-controlling spell! If he can make Moissan, the Dracula family, fall into that momentary state of confusion, he will have a way to kill that perverted guy who claims to be the god of immortality! Then, the status of the Dracula family can be surpassed by the Bruch family!

And for Jing Yue, being able to be directly promoted from a first-time blood clan to the strength of an earl is also something she dreams of, right?

So, such a deal should be achievable!

"Lord Byron, you want to learn our oriental mystics?" Jing Yue was stunned, she didn't expect Byron to say this.

"Yes, can't you? Or are you unwilling to trade with me? Byron frowned.

Jing Yue laughed, "Of course I'm willing to exchange with you, this soul locking spell is not a great spell in the Eastern Occult Arts, and many psychics will ...... However, you may not be able to learn it. ”

"What do you mean?" Byron's voice sank, and he thought Jing Yue was making excuses.

"This spell is to cooperate with the mental methods and spells in our Xuanmen, although you can speak our words, you may not be able to understand those advanced mental methods, do not understand the culture of the East, you can't learn such a mystical technique at all, just like us Orientals, maybe we will never be able to learn your Western magic." Jing Yue said disapprerovingly, "Do you know how to use your body to feel and absorb the aura in heaven and earth?" Do you know how to keep the spiritual power in your body running through the meridians? Do you know how to use these spiritual powers to send out the seals? ……”

"What is spiritual power? What are Meridians? Byron was confused by Jing Yue's circling around.

"Look, you don't know anything, how can I teach you?" Jing Yue spread her hands innocently, her eyes darkened, and she said abruptly, "Moreover, I found that after I became a blood clan, the functions of my body have been changed...... The spiritual power in my body seems to have disappeared, and it is not running in the meridians at all, and I can no longer feel the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. And another kind of power in my body replaces the original spiritual power, and when I cast the soul locking spell yesterday, I also used that kind of power to replace the spiritual power, but it consumed a lot...... I think I may not be able to practice the Eastern occult arts in the future. ”

"So that's ......" Byron pondered for a while, although he was still a little skeptical, but his tone softened a little, after the first embrace of the blood clan, the functions of the body will indeed change, Jing Yue did not lie.

"However, I am still ready to give you a drop of my natal essence blood to help you advance to the strength of the earl." Byron continued.

"Huh?" Jing Yue said in surprise, "My lord...... Why would you want to do this? ”

"Because I want to see if a Bloodline Count can kill the Templars smoothly after trapping the Templars with the Soul Locking Charm!" Byron chuckled, "You are an exception, neither a pure Eastern cultivator nor a pure blood clan, but you may be able to surpass both!" And your creator is me, should I be proud? ”

Three days later, the auction of Yanyun Auction House was held on time.

Located in the downtown area, the traffic in front of the Yanyun Building shuttles, and rows of luxury cars are neatly parked in the VIP luxury parking lot outside the building.

Whenever this parking lot is full of cars, people in the neighborhood know that the auction house is going to hold an auction today!

In a luxurious office in Yanyun Mansion, Chu Qiao kept fidgeting and looking downstairs.

"They're coming, right? Yes? What if they don't come? We're just going to have to work for nothing! Chu Qiao stomped his feet.

Yun Mo said helplessly, "Miss, how many times do you want me to say it?" That day in the Chu family villa, didn't I tell you? Bishop Hall of St. Mieuux's Church has already put a deposit of 500,000 yuan into the account of Yanyun Auction House, and the deposit has been paid, why don't they come? ”

"But I'm still worried...... Chu Qiao pouted.

"Come on, sit down and have a cup of tea, it's still early before the auction starts!" Yun Mo greeted Chu Qiao, "You don't care how much money your family's auction house makes a year, how many employees there are, and how your husband manages this auction house......

"Have you ever run this auction house?" Chu Qiao's eyes widened and he looked at Yun Mo in surprise.

"Forehead......" Yun Mo touched his nose and said a little embarrassed, "No." ”

"Then you still say wool!" Chu Qiao rolled her eyes angrily, before that, even she didn't know that this famous auction house was actually the Yun family's property! It seems that the people of the Yun family can take advantage of it, such a large auction house, the money earned every year is so-so, and it has to use 100 million yuan as a unit! And who would have thought that the young owner of this auction house would be a silly boy who rides a bicycle around the campus all day long chasing his fiancΓ©e?

"The Yun family's industry is all taken care of by those elders, and the Huaxia State has talents, can you use your husband to take charge of it himself?" Yun Mo hurriedly put gold on his face, "I just need to take care of the Yun family......"

"Poof......" Chu Qiao was amused by Yun Mo, no wonder the Yun family's power is very big in Yanjing, it turns out that people have money, there is a lot of money, so it is naturally easy to do things.

"Knock knock......" At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Yun Mo immediately changed his face as if he was in a precarious position.

A beautiful girl in an auction house uniform walked in with a tray in her hand.

Speaking of which, the female employees of Yanyun Auction House are all selected according to the criteria for selecting flight attendants, and beauty is a must! After all, those who come here to consume are all international and domestic tycoons, and they must be pleasing to the eye.

And this girl is definitely the best of the best.

Needless to say, the 36D majestic mind is enough to attract the eyes of the aliens on the moon, and the curly wavy curls sway behind her with the rhythm of her movements, it feels like she is shooting a shampoo commercial, and the delicate makeup on her face makes her look like a doll.

At this moment, the doll's beautiful and moving big eyes were looking at Yun Mo, and a decent pure and charming smile appeared on her face.

The VIP room where Yun Mo and Chu Qiao are located is the top VIP room of Yanyun Auction House, and although these two young people don't look outstanding, they were personally accompanied by the big boss of Yanyun Auction House, and even such a small thing as opening the door was done by the big boss himself, especially the dog's leg that he couldn't wait to go up and lick the shoes of the handsome boy, and he dropped the jaws of many people.

Even if the big boss didn't tell them the identities of these two young people, but the girls who can do reception work in the top VIP room are definitely empty eyelashes, and the shrewd ones are not a little bit, so this girl immediately guessed that these two might be like dragons and phoenixes!

If you can climb such a person, where is there any need to receive here? That's really flying on the branches and becoming a phoenix!

This girl is very confident in her beautiful and innocent face, who doesn't want to marry into a real wealthy family? However, she doesn't want to be a stepmother to others, this boy is good, he looks so handsome...... This is really the best choice for the golden beetle! So, let's go decisively!

"Two, this is the tea and snacks prepared by this auction house for VIPs, please tell me if you need anything." Seeing that Yun Mo didn't notice herself, this girl was a little depressed, where she was not the focus of attention!

Fortunately, this heavenly voice finally attracted the attention of the two people in the room.

Chu Qiao glanced at the delicate little snacks in the tray, walked over and threw a piece into his mouth, and praised, "It tastes good!" ”

"Eat as much as you like, the auction won't start until a while." Yun Mo immediately handed over another piece of doglegs, and his face was full of doting smiles.

The uniform girl was stunned for a moment, and then moved her gaze to the little yellow-haired girl who was not in her eyes with Yun Mo's movements.

------Off topic------

In fact, the kind-hearted kite has always wanted to write Jing Yue well, and slowly found that he went farther and farther, and he couldn't come back, but the girls were happy to celebrate Jing Yue's bad turn, which was all the fault of the occasion...... Inflow full of faces...... It seems that today is Christmas Eve, and I wish all the beautiful girls peace and happiness for a long time!
