"In the south, there are winged birds, which fly and stop drinking and pecking, and are not separated...... and resurrection, and they will be in one place. - "Naturalist Chronicles":

……

Sotheby's Summer Auction takes place in the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre's conference hall N108, and although it's not yet time to start, it's already crowded with well-dressed men and women.

Zhang Ling pulled the bow tie around his neck a little uncomfortably, he was used to wearing casual clothes, and he was uncomfortable in a dress at this time.

"Don't get it, I just got it for you, and you ripped it off again!"

He Qiaoxin, who was wearing a white evening dress, glared fiercely at Zhang Ling, who was pulling his bow tie.

"It's uncomfortable, I feel like I'm almost out of breath!"

"I know, you can bear with it!" He Qiaoxin gently loosened the bow tie for Zhang Ling and comforted him softly

"Brother Zhang, Sister Qiaoxin!"

Xu Ping's voice came from the side of the two, and Zhang Ling turned his head and was immediately stunned by Xu Ping's appearance today.

"Quick, pinch me, I must be dazzled!"

Zhang Ling couldn't believe his eyes, this little Nizi, who usually wears more like a man than him, actually wore a lotus-colored dress on the back today, and the light makeup on her face made her look bright.

"Oh, dead girl, you want to strangle me!"

Zhang Ling rubbed his arms and glared at Xu Ping, who had a fierce face, and now he could confirm that the beautiful woman in front of him was his man's mother-in-law's agent and assistant.

"Who told you to talk nonsense!"

"Hey, Brother Peng!"

Just when Xu Ping, the little girl, was about to stretch out her hand and continue to pinch Zhang Ling, Qi Dapeng and Lu Mingxuan walked over.

"Hehe, good evening, beauties!"

Lu Mingxuan had a bright smile on his handsome face, and he bowed to He Qiaoxin and the two very gentlemanly.

And Xu Ping, who was still like a dominatrix just now, immediately retracted her hand and pulled her hair in a panic, quiet like a lady.

Qi Dapeng also seemed to be attracted by Xu Ping's amazing changes, and his eyes would always inadvertently turn to her.

Lu Mingxuan, who was standing between the two, seemed to sense the delicate atmosphere between the two, and he immediately pulled Qi Dapeng to Xu Ping's side and said with a smile: "Your main task tonight is to protect this beautiful young lady." ”

For Qi Dapeng, he is good at beating and killing, but to get along with girls, especially such beautiful girls, he is simply an idiot.

He stood beside Xu Ping expressionlessly and said calmly: "Yes, I will protect Miss Xu!" ”

Zhang Ling was completely defeated by Qi Dapeng's Mu Ne, he shook his head and said, "It's almost time, let's go in!" ”

Entering the conference hall, everyone sat down near the middle, Zhang Ling fiddled with the number plate in his hand and smiled: "Just want to bid for this later?" ”

"yes, but don't lift it up and don't put it down, then I'll be bankrupt!" Lu Mingxuan said jokingly

"Don't worry, I'll bankrupt you!"

……

The folding iron sword they competed for today ranked fifteenth, and it was considered a relatively high-value lot, and most of the previous lots were small objects of relatively average condition.

It's usually just toys that the rich people spend a little money to make those little three and four happy.

Finally, the folding iron sword that Zhang Ling had been waiting for was brought out and placed on the booth, and the auctioneer stood up and began to introduce the folding iron sword.

However, Zhang Ling didn't listen to the auctioneer's words, and all his attention was focused on the rusty iron sword.

He had never seen such a heavy artifact, the evil qi emitted from this iron sword was completely different from what Zhang Ling had seen before, the evil qi on those killing blades before was black, but the evil qi emitted from this sword was crimson, thick as blood.

"Hey, don't be in a daze, start bidding!"

Lu Mingxuan stabbed Zhang Ling, who was in a daze, Zhang Ling hurriedly retracted his mind and subconsciously raised his hand.

"1.2 million!"

"1.2 million, this gentleman bids 1.2 million ......!"

The auctioneer's words startled Zhang Ling, he looked at it fixedly, only to find that the starting price of this ancient sword was 1 million, and each increase was 100,000 yuan.

"1.3 million!"

Sitting not far from them, a fat man with a cigar in his mouth and a big back raised the number plate in his hand, while beside him sat a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a layman's uniform and combing his hair in a Taoist bun.

"1.3 million, 1.3 million, is there anyone higher than 1.3 million, 1.3 million, 1.3 million at a time...... 1.4 million, 1.4 million! ”

Zhang Ling glanced at Lu Mingxuan and raised the number plate in his hand, he found that raising the sign was a very exciting thing.

"1.5 million! The gentleman in the back row bid 1.5 million, and is there anything higher! The fat man raised his hand again, his eyes kept staring at Zhang Ling's side.

Zhang Ling hesitated at this time, picked up the number plate in his hand and put it down, the price was too high for him.

"2 million!" Lu Mingxuan, who was sitting next to him, raised the number plate in his hand and said loudly

After Lu Mingxuan shouted the price, the fat man's face immediately became ugly, and he hesitated for a long time without raising the number plate in his hand.

The Taoist priest sitting next to him whispered a few words in his ear, but the fat man shook his head.

"2 million! 2 million, 2 million once, 2 million twice, deal! Congratulations to this gentleman! ”

Lu Mingxuan pulled Zhang Ling to stand up, smiled around with his hands folded, and then sat down.

"2 million, isn't it too expensive!"

Although it wasn't his own money spent, Zhang Ling still felt a little painful, not to mention the power of this sword, even if it was easy to use, he had to use it with extra care, this TM is 2 million!

Lu Mingxuan was very generous, he said softly: "Come in, of course you have to show sincerity!" ”

"Damn, it's more sincere for you to give me that money!"

"Okay, if you need it!"

"No, I said that you are these people, do you have money to burn!"

Lu Mingxuan shook his head with a smile and said, "Of course not, I'm generous because I regard you as my friend!" ”

Lu Mingxuan's words made Zhang Ling a little ashamed, he had always regarded this guy as a rich wrongdoer.

"The next lot, a pair of jade pendants flying in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty......"

As he spoke, the sixteenth lot was brought up, and as soon as it appeared, it caught Zhang Ling's attention.

It is a pair of emerald and red round rings, a red and blue winged bird hollowed out carved on the jade pendant, the whole jade pendant is divided into two from the middle, each side is a single head and a single wing, only together is a complete winged bird.

Although the carving of this jade pendant is exquisite and the jade color is unique, these are not the main reasons for attracting Zhang Ling, the most important thing is that he saw a hazy shadow on the jade pendant, which was not a ghost, but a two-headed and two-winged red and blue winged bird.
