With the evolved bald eagle by his side, the most obvious advantage is that it can follow him at any time without restraint, unlike a land creature like a small brown bear, there are always various inconveniences when you want to go out with you, such as when there are many people, he is not suitable for taking a bear shopping or something, but the sea eagle can always fly freely in the sky.

Be his personal protector for 24 hours.

For example, now he is resting in the east of the city, but yesterday he put the sea eagle in the villa in the west of the city, and the fact that the big guy can easily find it at such a distance is the best proof.

Of course, how did the big guy find it, and it is not difficult to imagine that the range it can simply sense is definitely not as big as a city, maybe it is because the big guy has been excited about his transformation since he woke up, so he spread his wings and flew around the whole city, and found his breath here.

For example, after the little brown bear took the first talisman in the past, he took advantage of Zhou Mingluo's sleep time to constantly test his strength, destroying his original residence in a mess, and the little brown bear was in the villa in the west of the city, whenever he entered the villa area, he was still hundreds of meters away from the little guy, he could sense Zhou Mingluo's return, and pounced on him in advance.

The sea eagle does not have a sensing range that far, but it must be more than 100 meters away to find his breath, it must have spread its wings wantonly after waking up, flying all over the city to find itself, and finally found it here.

"Whew~"

In Zhou Mingluo's happy thoughts, the bald sea eagle hovering in the sky made a crisp roar again, and then flew directly towards Zhou Mingluo, like a storm landing, after the big guy stretched out, there were more than two meters long wings with a huge wind instantly invaded in front of Zhou Mingluo, and then he suddenly stretched out his long toes and grabbed the wooden railing on the corridor, staring at Zhou Mingluo with a pair of eyes full of excitement and joy, but there were already two intimacy in this look.

Zhou Mingluo also smiled and stretched out to caress the big guy's white head, and after a careful look, he also found that after the eagle eagle had taken the first talisman, there was no obvious change in body shape, it only changed color.

The original pale yellow claws have turned into a bright yellow at this time, really exuding a beautiful luster in the sun like jewels, and the dark brown wings of the whole body have also turned into pitch black, looking beautiful and majestic, and mighty.

There is also the long and curved claws at the top of the toes, which at this time exude a faint luster like a peerless blade, which makes people feel a thrill at a glance.

This carving is becoming more and more magical.

.................. "Huang Shao, Zhou Shao, please come here." "In the southern suburbs of Xinchuan City, near the South Fourth Ring Road, which has not yet been fully developed, there are still many low-rise buildings, and a young man about 30 years old looks ordinary, smiling with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and walks in front to lead a few people along the winding alleys.

Turning around, like a spider web, alleys and alleys criss-crossed, after turning so many corners, a few people behind were a little dizzy, but the young man was definitely familiar with the road, and there was never a pause at the corners of each intersection, until he arrived in front of a courtyard deep in the alley, he smiled and pushed open the gate and invited a few people behind.

There are four people, two men and two women in the back, on one side is Huang Jingjing and a girl with a gorgeous face, the girl is carrying a big box in her hand, and on the other side is Zhou Mingluo and Wang You'an, although this Chinese Canadian girl is an international mercenary, but her appearance is really good, she is already twenty-four or five years old, but her pure dress is matched with her pretty face and skin, and at a glance she is still a tender little girl out of the water, and at this moment she is also like a bird snuggling up to Zhou Mingluo's side, and she is also carrying a box in her hand.

Not long after waking up in the morning, Zhou Mingluo received a call from Huang Dashao, saying that there was a black market auction in the south of the city, which was said to be run by Europeans, and there should be a lot of good goods.

Zhou Mingluo really had a lot of interest, and after answering the phone, he first sent Yang Dan back to her residence, and then drove over with a bodyguard.

Xinchuan's antique fever attracts the world's second-class dealers and black market merchants and collectors who have flocked to the antique market, and most of the antiques brought by the second-way dealers or general antique dealers are flowing to the antique market.

Not to mention the black market merchants who came from all over the world this time, even he had never participated in a black market auction before.

Now I have the opportunity to come to the black market, or some European guys do it, I think there should be some good things.

Entering the courtyard, Zhou Mingluo glanced at it, it was like a small farm yard, and more than ten meters away was a two-story building, which was not surprising.

"It's hard for these Europeans, it's only been a long time since they came to Xinchuan that they can find this kind of place to hold auctions like a snake in the ground." After looking at the courtyard a few times, Huang Jingjing smiled and whispered.

Zhou Mingluo also smiled, nodded and continued to walk with the man in front of him, and when he pushed open the door of the living room and walked in, he found that there were more than ten figures sitting in the hall at this time.

Or smoking a cigarette or sipping tea.

When they saw someone coming in, they looked at each other, but after only a few glances, they withdrew their gaze and went their separate ways.

There are more than ten figures, more than half of them are Caucasians with different hair colors, green or middle, there is also an old man with a clear face, as for the yellow race, there are only two, the same is a man and a woman, and even when Zhou Mingluo looked at it, he was stunned to find that the man had a relationship with him.

The last time I met him in the antique market, I insisted that the water belt was made by the ancestors of Korea, but it was borrowed by Dayu and the fourth-stage master of the black belt in taekwondo, Jin Zaixing, who did not repay the debt.

However, later this Mr. Jin was carried out of the antique market, and he was very much affected by Xiao Zhouyin, maybe he did not leave any physical trauma, but it is estimated that the psychological shadow is indispensable.

When Zhou Mingluo looked at Jin Zaixing dumbly, he seemed to recognize Zhou Mingluo, his face darkened on the spot, and he twitched slightly.

But isn't it, he is a normal person who is no longer healthy, and suddenly he is paralyzed and weak, and he seems to be unable to even maintain his breathing, and he can't move as if he is about to die, but whether it is Chinese medicine or Western medicine, even if it is their Korean "Korean medicine" master, no matter how he examines him, he can't detect the slightest disease.

It's like being cursed by God, but don't you scare people to death?

Although this condition only lasted for most of the day, he regained his mobility and gradually improved, but he was still weak, and it took 25 hours to completely return to normal.

The experience and tribulation are enough to scare anyone's heart.

And such a strange encounter happened after he met Zhou Ming, how can he not change color when he sees the other party now.

Lowering his head slightly, Jin Zaixing took a puff of his cigarette, as if he didn't bother to pay attention to Xiao Zhou at all.

This scene made Huang Jingjing slightly dumbfounded, and it was very strange to glance at Zhou Mingluo before whispering, "You know?" ”

"I've met once before, it's a Korean." Zhou Mingluo held back the smile on the corner of his mouth and whispered, before he looked at a middle-aged man in his forties standing in the living room, in the center of everyone.

This living room is not big or small, that is, thirty or forty square meters, almost all the previous furniture has been removed, leaving only the sofas along the corners of the wall, all four-seater long sofas, a total of eight.

Except for him, the newcomers, everyone else sat on the sofa in turn, and there was a vacancy, which didn't seem crowded, only the brown-haired middle-aged man stood in the center, and there was a table in front of him.

When Zhou Mingluo looked over, the man also looked at him with a smile, and then looked at the young man who led Zhou Mingluo and the two over, before he nodded and said in fluent Mandarin, "Since the two distinguished guests from China have arrived, then our auction can start today, please take a seat." ”

Waiting for Zhou Mingluo and a few people to sit down on the remaining sofa, the brown-haired middle-aged man smiled again and spoke, "To paraphrase an old Chinese saying, everything is really wonderful, I myself didn't expect that one day I could hold my own auction in the far East, ancient China, has always been mysterious and powerful, with all kinds of incredible miracles, such as the Great Wall, but the most amazing miracle, I'm afraid it is still the water belt, the desalination project more than 4,000 years ago, is really breathtaking, below, there is the first auction item we have today, A broken water hose. ”

First spoke it in fluent Mandarin, and even mixed with idioms and the like, it could be seen that this brown-haired middle-aged Chinese was really good, and after speaking, he repeated it again in English, and even clapped his hands.

From a bedroom on the side of the hall, the blonde youth walked out, smiled and took out a rectangular brocade box, and respectfully placed it on the table in front of the middle-aged man.

But almost at the same time, there was a jumble of words in the living room.

"Damn it, Sean, are you playing monkey by inviting you here? Fix the water belt? Or a broken hose? You walk around the outside, and such a thing can come across more than a ton. ”

"Isn't it, these days I see that those fakes have seen a big head, everyone says that they have a water hose in their hands, and they all say that their own is broken, I thought this black market would be more decent, but I didn't expect it to come like this?"

“[***]！”

………… The words were all gibbled, and the men and women who were originally sitting smoking or drinking tea all had a stupid look on their faces, and one of the middle-aged blonde people even scolded the brown-haired middle-aged man by name, as if the two had known each other for a long time.

It's really no wonder that these guys are angry, since Zhou Mingluo first encountered the hypothetical hose in the antique market, the entire Xinchuan antique market is really full of fakes, whether it is those antique shops, or stalls, who doesn't have two or three hypothetical hoses in their hands is like not keeping up with the trend.

There are even some collectors jokingly saying that the current Xinchuan is a national treasure all over the place, and there are many water belts like dogs.

Moreover, these people who sell fakes are all in the same mouth, and all the things in their hands are damaged, and they can't use the biggest special surname of the real water belt to test.

Even if everyone present originally came to Xinchuan for the Dingshui belt, but I'm afraid that they were already tired of the endless fakes, I originally thought that a black market might meet real good things, but I didn't expect this to come up and get a broken Dingshui belt, isn't this a cheat?

The scene was instantly exploded, but it was all scolding, and the brown-haired middle-aged Sean smiled bitterly, and hurriedly confessed, "Okay, everyone, I don't know if this water tie is true or not, but its origin is also a little peculiar, I got it by chance after I came to China, and I didn't plan to take it out, but then I thought about it, although there are fakes all over the place, but this may not be true, because I got it by a coincidence, and it wasn't like this when I first bought it, No one said that it was a fixed water belt, but I found it myself, as for how it came about, I won't say much, anyone in this line can make up a fanciful origin for their antiques, I guess you don't want to hear it, let's look at the eyesight now, this water with a starting price of 10,000 US dollars, you think it's real just bid, you think it's not true, just give up. And one thing I know for sure is that this thing is definitely a bronze from the Xia Dynasty. ”

Black market auctions, which are also full of fakes, it depends on your eyesight to buy right or not, and there is no reason to be reasonable if you suffer a loss, Sean directly opened the bottom line.

Only then did he suddenly suppress the chaotic words in the hall, if it was really as he said, this water belt was just obtained by him, and it was not like this at the beginning, it was only made by him that he found the clues, then this may not be true, especially the other party can be sure that this is a bronze of the Xia Dynasty, and the credibility seems to be a line higher.

Of course, this may also be that Sean is talking nonsense, deliberately fooling people's words, deliberately finding a bronze from the Xia Dynasty, and removing a part to deceive people.

So even if it was quiet, there were more doubts on everyone's faces.

Zhou Mingluo also flashed a trace of suspicion on his face, and then injected a [Fire Separation Talisman] into his body to observe the humanistic fire of the water belt in the brocade box, and then found that the humanistic fire of this thing was only the size of a match flame.

There is a humanistic fire that shows that this is indeed an antique, but it only has such a small flame, but it is definitely not a water belt, if it is, in the case of Zhou Mingluo's subjective opinion that it is a water belt, its flame should definitely be a burst type, even if it is damaged, it is not too much.

It's an antique and not a water hose, so what is it, Zhou Mingluo didn't recognize it for a while.

After all, when he didn't rely on the talisman to identify, he hadn't even gone up to take a serious look, so how could he see through the origin of this thing?

"If you are not sure, you can come up and strengthen it personally, after all, this is bronze, not as fragile as porcelain calligraphy and painting, I also know that it is a little unauthentic to take it out, so let's go forward and appreciate it at will, and then decide whether to make a move when you have made up your mind."

Seeing that everyone in the audience was hesitant, Sean smiled again and waved his hand very chicly.

In a word, those who were hesitating got up one after another, and immediately walked forward, even Zhou Mingluo stood up, although it is certain that this thing is not a water belt, but it may not be other treasures, after all, as long as he does not recognize the origin of this thing, the fire of humanity on the opposite side will only be in a primitive state.

When he saw a brown-haired man in his thirties grabbing a water staple and looking at it in his hand, he watched it with the others, but as the other party moved back and forth for a moment, he still couldn't recognize what it was.

Even if he has been following a bronze like Song Lao for a while at this time, his ability to appreciate bronze has also improved in a straight line, but this thing is a remnant.

It is a tube about a meter long and a few inches wide, and there are cutting marks on the side, which are obviously cut from something.

However, after careful observation, he could finally determine that this was a bronze from the Xia Dynasty period.

Not only him, but the other foreigners watching from the side also nodded and shook their heads with some affirmation or confusion, and those affirmations were basically sure that this was a Xia Dynasty bronz, and they were naturally puzzled or unable to confirm whether this was a water belt.

After a few minutes, the crowd in the middle gradually sat down, their expressions all calm, and no one could tell what they were thinking.

"Hehe, now that everyone has finished appreciating, let's start bidding, with a starting price of 10,000 US dollars, is there any boss willing to sell?" Sean smiled again and spoke.

His words were still spoken in Mandarin and then repeated in English.

The common currency of this auction is the US dollar, and everyone basically brings cash with them, after all, only cash payment is usually allowed in black market auctions, and almost every boss has a small black box or bag on his side.

The same is true for Zhou Mingluo and Huang Jingjing, this time Xiao Zhou brought five million US dollars in cash, all of which were of a hundred denomination types, and they weighed dozens of pounds in a big box.

This is also because Huang Jingjing said before that there should be good things in this auction, and the organizer has a certain reputation in the European black market, so he will bring so much money.

But with Sean's words, the living room fell silent again, and no one bid at all.

The starting price of $10,000 is not much, and if it is really a broken water belt, let alone $10,000, $10 million is worth it, and the problem is that no one is sure if it is true.

Even if many people can confirm that it is an authentic Xia Dynasty bronzes, some tattered bronzes of the Xia Dynasty may not be worth a hundred dollars, let alone 10,000 US dollars.

Without sufficient certainty, no one was willing to speak easily, and it actually made a great black market auction a big cold scene as soon as it opened.
