After the twelve elders left, Vidoo suddenly revealed a message to Hong Tianbao that there would be an underground auction soon, and asked Hong Tianbao if he was interested. Duke Vidoo mainly considered that there would often be a Chinese cultural relics in these auctions, so even if Hong Tianbao did not participate, he would send people to participate and auction all the cultural relics of Huaguo.

"Auctions? What nature? What happens on a daily basis? Hong Tianbao asked.

"It's a secret organization, this organization has a history of more than two hundred years, and its power is huge, but it can't be compared to our secret alliance, and it is not difficult to destroy them. They are only held once a year, and there are many bizarre and strange things in them, and almost every time, there will be Chinese cultural relics. Vidoo told the truth.

Hong Tianbao nodded and said, "Okay!" Check it out. Hearing the strange and strange words, Hong Tianbao became interested. If Vidoo only talked about Chinese cultural relics, maybe Hong Tianbao would not have gotten there. Because he knows that if the cultural relics of his country appear, the blood clan will definitely take them down, or even snatch them back.

"Okay, I'll get ready right away. By the way, do you need any other spots? Vidoo suddenly remembered that the people in the treasure room were all interested in the artifacts.

Hong Tianbao thought of the little witch and the others, and said, "Then take two or three more places!" He also knows that these underground auctions are often for quotas.

Vidoo immediately asked people to get things done, and Hong Tianbao returned to the treasure room, where everyone was in full swing sorting out the massive treasures.

"Where did you just go? Didn't find you. Tang Xin asked.

"Go out and find out that there will be an underground auction in a while, will you go?" Hong Tianbao informed them.

"Auctions? Go, why not? Tang Xin suddenly became excited. It's very crazy for this girl to spend money, Hong Tianbao has already seen it.

"What auction?" Yan Lao didn't give an immediate reply, in his opinion, if it was an ordinary auction, then he wouldn't go, it was not interesting. If there are often auctions of Chinese cultural relics. You have to check it out, or you'll be guilty of missing some treasures.

"It seems to be some kind of black alliance auction, listen to Duke Vidoo. This auction is only held once a year......"

Before Hong Tianbao finished speaking, Curator Ding jumped up and said in surprise: "Black Alliance auction? Go, let's go. Every year, this auction brings out some of our country's precious national treasures. However, I have heard that it is very difficult to get in, and even if you have money, you may not be able to get in. Can you get a quota for Tempo? ”

"Duke Vidoo is doing this, and there should be no problem. So be it! I'll go with the little witch, Curator Ding, and Yan Lao to have a look. Hong Tianbao said.

Others know that this spot is hard to come by. I didn't go with it, there are so many treasures here, it's enough to keep myself busy.

Half an hour later, Duke Vidoo approached Hong Tianbao and said that the quota had been determined. He got a total of seven places, in addition to the four people of Hong Tianbao, there were also him, Victor, and Prince Weiss.

"Let's get in the car, everybody! The auction starts in an hour. We went just right. Vidoo said.

Almost an hour later, the car actually came to the beach. Vidoo explained: "This time they held it at the Undersea Hotel, which very few people know about. Ordinary guests will not be accommodated. ”

Suddenly, everyone got off the train, and Vidoo led everyone out of the beach on an automatic train, through a long underwater passage, and soon arrived at the hotel's hospitality hall.

At this time, the reception hall was already full of people, more than three hundred people. According to Vidoo, the people who enter here are celebrities from all over the world. Those present here are either rich or powerful.

Hong Tianbao observed the entire hall. The top of the hall is a round arch with a layer of glass on top of it, through which you can see the fish swimming back and forth. The foot is also clear glass, so you can see the beautiful coral reef below. Outside, there are four pillars that emit a strange light, which seem to be the pillars that hold the entire underwater hotel in place.

…,

Prince Viss also introduced. The hotel has more than 10,000 square meters, 38 rooms, a ballroom, a casino, four underwater observation decks, and a hospitality hall where it is now. It is also the largest part, with a maximum capacity of 500 people. A minimum spend of £100,000 is required to enter this hotel.

Hong Tianbao's group immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall. Duke Vidoo and Prince Vis are very famous, and many people in them know each other, and they are not surprised to see these two people. What interested them was the four Chinese people next to them, who had not appeared here for a long time. They didn't know what the identities of these four people were, but they even accompanied Vidoo and Prince Vess.

Vidoo's pupils narrowed slightly, and he realized that his old rival, Jammers, was thinking. James is a member of the Demon Banquet Alliance, and his strength was similar to his own in the past, but now it is different, and now this old guy is no longer his opponent, and even the two of him are not opponents.

James frowned at the sight of Vidoo and the others, and he found that Vidoo seemed to be stronger again now. When he saw Hong Tianbao, his eyes widened. It's impossible for him not to know this pervert, and there are fewer people in the Demon Banquet Alliance who have been killed by him? Especially those ninjas in Japan, they were even more unlucky to go to their grandmother's house, and they were almost uprooted, forcing the ninja village that was hidden in Japan to be born, causing the world to change.

Hong Tianbao glanced at that James Mouth, and his cold eyes made James Mouth suddenly feel like he was under an ice cave, his body trembled, and he quickly withdrew his eyes. But she was shocked in her heart, she already knew that this person was very strong. But I didn't expect it to be so strong, just one look seems to be able to kill myself.

At this time, he also felt deeply uncomfortable, and wondered how to escape. He has no interest in this auction at all, and only hopes to escape.

Those who were familiar with Duke Vidoo and Prince Vis all stood up and greeted the two of them. And Duke Vidoo and Prince Vis only nodded, and did not have a deep friendship.

Once everyone was seated, they waited for the auction to begin.

The organizer didn't let everyone wait for a long time, there was no way, none of the guests present were easy to mess with, and it was very fatal to offend any of them.

A bald old ghost walked up to the auction table with a pair of reading glasses, raised his hands to silence everyone, and then said, "Hello everyone! I'm Jill who is in charge of the auction this time, and everyone is familiar with it. I'm not going to talk nonsense and waste everyone's time. Good! Now, I declare the auction open! ”

There was a round of applause, after that. The other party immediately held the first auction item on the stage. The sexy Western beauty is very eye-catching, and her delicate fingers lift the red cloth that covers it.

It was a blue gem, with a fist large and flat round, that sparkled in the light. The women present suddenly widened their eyes and looked intently at the gem above.

"This is a precious jewel in the heart of the sea, and it is very valuable. The reserve price is 10 million. The price is not less than 500,000 each time, start! "Jill doesn't talk a lot of nonsense like the usual auctioneers.

"Huh! It's all ordinary items at first, and some good things may appear later. Seeing that Hong Tianbao was a little disappointed, Wei Duoao couldn't help but say.

Hong Tianbao was a little interested, but the little witch was in good spirits. This sea heart gem is indeed a treasure, otherwise how could people have a reserve price of 10 million? After a fight, the sea heart gem has exceeded 20 million euros.

"Good! The lady on my left is out of 20 million. Is there anything higher? If not, this rare treasure belongs to this beautiful lady. Twenty million for the first time! ……”

"Twenty-one million!" Tang Xin said.

Yan Lao and the others glanced at each other, and they all smiled bitterly. They knew that this girl would definitely go crazy when she threw away the money.

The glanced at Tang Xin in surprise, although there were Duke Vidoo and Prince Weiss next to her, she still wanted to fight for it, and she really liked this gem.

…,

"Twenty-two million!"

"Twenty-five million!" As soon as the spoke, Tang Xin simply raised the price by three million. This courage made many people gasp slightly, and threw out 25 million euros in one breath, which was converted into Chinese currency, which is more than 200 million, and this woman didn't even blink her eyes. Even if they are. I'm afraid you have to think about it! In this world, there are still women, especially beautiful women, who make money.

Hearing Tang Xin's desperate slap, the could only sigh. Although she could still offer a higher price, the Duke of Vidoo and Prince Weiss next to her put some pressure on her.

"Twenty-five million! This oriental beauty is out of 25 million, is there anything higher? Twenty-five million first ......" finally sounded with Jill's three hammers, and this sea heart gem rightly became Tang Xin's.

Next up are some quirky auction items. Like what scepters, two-handed greatswords, biological secretions, and so on.

The scepter is said to be the scepter of a marshal from the Napoleonic era. Everyone fought fiercely, and Napoleon's fame was too great.

In the glorious era that swept across Europe, Napoleon's soldiers presented the world with a puzzle: why were the same ordinary soldiers better than the soldiers of other European countries?

In a world of high hierarchies and huge differences between high and low, it is not the nobles, not the officers, but the lowly soldiers, who show a positive attitude and fearless spirit on the battlefield that will stagnate their opponents.

The generals of that era once commented: These guys are as proud as kings! Napoleon himself triumphantly declared: My corporal is more than enough to be a captain in any army! The European aristocracy struggled to figure out what was the force that made the French peasants, the shoemakers, the city nomads, all incomparable on the battlefield, a terrible force that made the whole of Europe look terrible?

It turns out that the secret is on this marshal's scepter, as long as the military exploits are enough, Napoleon will use the marshal's scepter to promote the general marshal, just ask: that soldier does not want to be a general marshal?

In the end, the marshal's scepter was taken away by a Frenchman.

The two-handed greatsword is said to be from the Greek era, and Victor seemed to like it so much that he took a picture.

Subsequently, two pieces of fine Chinese porcelain appeared, a Ming Dynasty color glazed porcelain, and a Qing Dynasty sculpture porcelain fair cup. Curator Ding naturally participated in the auction, but he was much more rational than the little witch, and he had to take it down at the lowest cost.

Color glazed porcelain, its glaze color can be described as colorful, dazzling, known as "artificial gem", is one of the four traditional porcelain in the porcelain capital. Its red glaze is bright and gorgeous, the green glaze is clean and elegant, the yellow glaze is bright and clear, and the flower glaze is mottled and elegant. The crystalline glaze is more varied, bursting out of different sizes of flowers, flowers, radiant, its artistic effect is indescribable.

As the name suggests, sculpture porcelain is a work of art that is fired into three-dimensional ceramics through sculpture, referred to as porcelain carving. Its production needs to be completed by high-temperature smelting through multiple manual processes such as molding, inlaying, engraving, stacking, plasticing, and engraving. Due to the different methods of operation, it can be divided into round carving, pile carving, openwork carving, relief carving, carving, carving and other types.

Ceramic sculpture has a long history, dating back more than 1,400 years. In the Sui Dynasty, there were lions, elephants and beasts entering the palace. During the Song and Song dynasties, it absorbed sculpture arts such as pottery, pottery horses, stone carvings, and clay sculptures to improve skills. In the Ming Dynasty, there were many finely carved porcelain Buddha statues. Quite prestigious. Qing Dynasty hollow rotating bottles, fair cups and so on are famous porcelain carving products.

Because of Duke Vidoo and Prince Weis, the Huaguo porcelain, which has always been hotly contested, was deserted a lot this time, so that Director Ding easily got the two treasures.

This made Jill a little depressed. But there is no way to do it, and the auction has to continue.

Just when Hong Tianbao was about to doze off, the sexy beauty took out a scroll of calligraphy, on which was a poem, the poem was called "There are paintings in the poem".

…,

This is a precious calligraphy of the Chinese Kingdom, made by Liu Gongquan, a famous artist in the Tang Dynasty. The starting price is 5 million, and the price increase is not less than 100,000 yuan each time. Jill spoke again.

Hong Tianbao's divine sense locked tightly on the word. Or rather painting. He discovered that there was really a painting hidden in the poem, and the content of the painting was a starry sky. The paper seems to be painted with some kind of paint, and the ink is not an ordinary ink. According to the information sent by the Falling Treasure Money, the two materials will glow when they are in a dark place.

This reminds Hong Tianbao of a person, he is Wu Daozi of the Tang Dynasty.

Wu Daozi was the first great painter of the Tang Dynasty in China, and was called the "painting saint" by later generations, and was respected as the ancestor by folk painters. He created the "sparse body" of the landscape with a distant meaning between the brushes, making the landscape an independent type of painting. Thus ending the vassal status of the landscape as a background for figure painting. The folds of the painted characters are fluttering, the lines are strong, and they are called the strips of Ulva strips. It has the effect of flying clothes and full of wind, and is known as Wu with the wind. He also applied a little light color in the scorched ink lines, and was known as Wu costume.

One of the paintings inside reminds Hong Tianbao of a story.

Legend has it that Wu Daozi, the "painting saint", came back from the scenery of Lidui Mountain in the New Deal one evening, passing by the side of a thatched house, and the sound of spinning cotton came from inside, but there was no light in the house, and he felt strange.

Early the next morning, Wu came to the thatched house. A white-haired old woman walked out. Invite him into the house and sit down, and invite him to tea. Wu took the tea and asked, "Old man, do you recognize me?" The old woman said, "Yes, yes, I went to the street to sell threads, and I heard that you were a Wu painter, and that you were a good person." Do not befriend the rich and the government. Wu nodded, and then asked, "How many people are in your family?" The old woman said sadly: "My husband died early, my son died of illness a few years ago, and I am left with a lonely old woman, who spun cotton and sold thread to make ends meet."

Wu Daozi sighed and asked again: "You spin cotton at night, why don't you light the lamp?" The old woman said with tears in her eyes: "Mr. Wu, I spin day and night, and the money I earn is not enough to eat and dress, how can I have money to buy oil and light lamps!" Since the death of his son, he has not lit the lamp for three years. Wu Daozi thought for a while and said, "Old man, your life is very hard, and I can't help you, let's paint a picture for you." The old woman was delighted.

Wu Daozi grinded and laid the paper and began to paint. First, I threw the pen dipped in ink on the paper, and many shiny dots immediately appeared on the paper, and then I gently scribbled the dots with the pen a few times, and finally drew a circle in the blank space to count the drawing.

He said to the old woman, "It will be useful if you put this picture in the house." Although the old woman couldn't see what the painting was, she was convinced that Wu Daozi was a good person and would not lie to her, so she happily took the painting, and then took out a handful of threads from the bedside and said to Wu: "Thank you, Mr. Wu, I don't know how to repay you, so I will send you the thread to change the pen and ink!" Wu Daozi said: "I paint, not for money. If it's for money, I won't paint it even if you pay a thousand taels of silver. You'd better keep the thread for rice! After that, he packed up his painting tools and went out.

The old woman carefully pasted the painting on the wall in front of the spinning wheel. When it was dark, the old woman found that the painting was a blue sky, with countless stars shining on it, and a round moon illuminating the house as bright as day. Since then, at night, the stars and moon in the painting shine brightly, and it is much easier for the old woman to spin the thread against the stars and moon.

Hong Tianbao exhaled, and he was basically sure in his heart that this was the strange painting "Starlight Map" in the legend of Saint Wu Daozi.

"This is the work of Liu Gongquan? How come I haven't heard of it? Looking at its writing, it seems to be genuine. Curator Ding frowned.

Yan Lao stared at it for a while, then nodded and said, "It should be, there are many of his works, and it is not surprising that some of them have been lost in history." If it's suitable, you can shoot it, it's too expensive and it's not necessary. ”

"Nope! We have to shoot it, and we'll talk about it when we go back. Hong Tianbao said firmly.

Hearing Hong Tianbao's words, Yan Lao and the others were all shocked, and then looked at the words again, and Yan Lao soon found some problems. The thickness of the paper is doubtful, and he also realizes that there is still a lot of things in it, thinking of this, he is looking forward to it at the same time, and he is also a little excited. Sneaking a glance at Hong Tianbao, he secretly said that this kid is still as thief-eyed as ever, and he can't escape his discovery without any cats.
