Chapter 64: Shady
"A million!"
Under the impact of several consecutive ultra-high quotations, the masses have become a little numb, so when they heard the price of one million, it did not seem too unexpected.
All they wanted to know was what idiot would be willing to pay a million dollars for such a map.
Cang Wu's brows furrowed slightly, and his gaze also fell behind Pan Jin.
A handsome young man in black slowly walked to Pan Jin's side, this person was none other than the genius disciple of the Sword Wing Sect who had attacked Cangwu before, Jiang Hao.
"Jiang Hao?" Cang Wu was as puzzled as everyone else, the clues to the Divine Tree Leaf were originally provided by the three major sects, and Jiang Hao, as a disciple of the three major sects, why did he still come to participate in the bidding?
Pan Jin thought that Jiang Hao, who suddenly appeared, wanted to compete with him, and suddenly glared angrily, and his temper surged into his chest, but just when he was about to attack, Jiang Hao seemed to lower his voice and said a few words, no one knew what he said, but after finishing speaking, the anger on Pan Jin's face had already faded without a trace, and he looked at Cang Wu with a grin: "General Ben bid 1.2 million!
In the face of Pan Jin's provocation, Cang Wu did not show the slightest sign of superiority, and the young maid from the Han Jiao Sect standing behind him whispered in a rapid and weak delicate voice: "That is a trap set by Jiang Gongzi, General Cang should not be fooled." ”
Cang Wu's eyes flickered slightly, he was not stupid, Pan Jian and Jiang Hao had obviously joined forces, once he raised the price again, those two people would definitely withdraw from this bidding, making Cang Wu lose a lot of unjust money. It's just that if Cangwu is the first to choose to quit, is Pan Jin really willing to pay 1.2 million yuan to buy this map?
Obviously, there must be something shady in this.
It wasn't just Cang Wu who saw this, everyone else present made a voice of discussion, and their expressions occasionally showed disdain for Pan Jin.
"General Pan is really rich, since this is the case, I will not snatch love with a sword. Cang Wu smiled freely, and directly chose to give up this map.
"Haha!" Pan Jin laughed, his laughter was full of mockery, while Jiang Hao looked at Zhai Fan with a gentle smile and said, "Elder Zhai, let's make a conclusion about it." ”
Zhai Fan glared at Jiang Hao deeply, the displeasure between his eyebrows was clearly visible, and he naturally knew what trick the latter was playing. Jiang Hao's behavior not only broke the agreement between the three major sects, but also ruined the reputation of the three major sects in front of the world, so Zhai Fan naturally didn't have a good face for him, so he said coldly: "The second map belongs to General Pan Jin of the Demon Spirit Clan. ”
When Pan Jin heard this, he didn't hesitate much, and threw a storage crystal to Zhai Fan quite happily, and he said with a smile: "This is one million and two million yuan, Elder Zhai, please take a look." ”
"No need. Zhai Fan's eyes drooped, he casually threw the storage spar into his sleeve, and then ordered someone to send the map taken by Pan Jian to his box.
Pan Jin had no intention of leaving immediately after getting the map, he sat on the chair with great interest, as if he wanted to stay and see where the remaining maps belonged, but everyone knew that he would not let Cang Wu take a picture of the map easily.
After being spoiled by Pan Jian and Jiang Hao, Zhai Fan immediately adjusted his mood and continued the auction in full swing.
Cang Wu didn't immediately bid for the next map, and he could feel several malicious glances around him, including Pan Jin, Jiang Hao, and others.
He looked at the young maid and asked, "What do you mean when you said that Jiang Hao set a trap before?"
The young maidservant hesitated for a moment and said, "The nine maps in this auction are jointly provided by the three major sects, and the three major sects agree that the proceeds from the auction will be determined by the auction price of the maps provided by each of them, and it is also stipulated that the disciples of the three major sects are not allowed to participate in the bidding. ”
"In other words, Jiang Hao violated the agreement you made?"
The maid nodded slightly: "The map taken by General Pan Jin should be provided by the Sword Wing Gate, so even if General Pan's offer is very high, there is no need to pay such a big price at all." ”
Cang Wu suddenly raised his eyebrows as if he realized, it turned out that the one just now was just a song and a harmony between Pan Jin and Jiang Hao, Pan Jin only needs to raise the price higher, after all, if the Sword Wing Gate is intentionally attached to the Demon Spirit Clan, it will definitely provide Pan Jian with clues to the leaves of the Divine Tree for free.
It's no wonder that Zhai Fan doesn't care about the number of coins in Pan Jin's storage crystal, even if it is empty, the Sword Wing Gate will give this map to Pan Jin, and maybe provide him with some unknown additional information.
"Hmph, interesting. Cang Wu touched his chin, if Pan Jian had the support of the Sword Wing Gate behind him, it would indeed be very unfavorable to him, "It turns out that the three major sects still have this kind of shady scene." He sneered and looked at the maidservant.
The maid blinked, blushed and said, "We won't do this kind of thing in the Hanjiao Sect......
Cang Wu smiled and looked at the bidding platform.
Although the second map was deliberately raised to 1.2 million by Pan Jin, everyone knew that it was because of the Sword Wing Gate doing things behind it, so the third and fourth maps were only sold for about 500,000 in the end.
"For the fifth map, the starting price is still 50,000. ”
As soon as Zhai Fan's voice fell, Cang Wu immediately quoted his bid: "500,000!"
He directly raised the price to ten times the starting price, obviously for this map, and because of the ease of bidding with Pan Jin, the appearance of being at ease still remained in people's minds, and everyone had no intention of bidding with Cangwu, after all, Cangwu may also throw out a million yuan, but they didn't know that 500,000 was actually Cangwu's limit, and the previous wanton offer was just Cangwu's bluff.
If everyone didn't participate in the auction with Cangwu, then his previous bluff could achieve the effect he wanted.
"Under a million dollars. An unidentified demon spirit man suddenly held up a sign and said, causing an uproar, the three major sects did not provide a VIP box for this person, indicating that he did not have a noble identity, but he was willing to spend a million yuan to buy a map, which could not help but make people suspicious.
Cang Wu frowned, this demon spirit was most likely also someone under Pan Jian or Jiang Hao, and was ready to deliberately make trouble for Cang Wu when he was bidding.
He clenched his fists slightly, although his face was expressionless, but the killing intent for these demon spirits had already spread in his heart, and a terrifying high temperature had erupted on the pale red face on the side, which frightened the maid to the point of paleness.
But now is not the time to settle accounts with them, and if these spirits keep interfering, these maps will only be missed.
Because Cang Wu no longer followed the price, this map finally fell into the hands of the demon spirit youth.
"This map may also be provided by the Sword Wing Gate......" The maid saw that Cangwu's face seemed to be gradually becoming ugly, and hurriedly said.
The corners of Cangwu's mouth lifted slightly: "If the Demon Spirit Clan is determined not to let me obtain the clue of the Divine Tree Leaf, even if I really pay millions of yuan, it is not impossible." ”
"Young Master, what should we do then?" asked Cang Hongyan.
Cang Wu was silent, if he couldn't get the clues, he could only hand them over to the generals sent by the royal families of the Terran and Blood Demon Clans.
But until now, he hadn't seen any generals from the two royal families, and he didn't know if they planned to make the last move, or just give up these clues.
There was a sudden knock outside the door, interrupting Cangwu's thoughts. After opening the door and investigating, the maid held a small disc and presented it to Cangwu.
On the disc were two sparkling crystals.
"Huh?" Cang Wu was a little puzzled, and the maid said, "Just now, a prince asked me to give these two storage crystals to General Cang. ”
"Childe??"
The servant girl shook her head: "That son didn't leave his name. ”
Cang Wu was thoughtful, he passed his thoughts into the storage crystal and investigated, as he expected, the two storage crystals each contained a million yuan coins.
"Hmph," Cang Wu smiled helplessly, "those two guys are happy." ”
Cang Wu sensed the elemental fluctuations of the two acquaintances from these two storage crystals, they were both well-known genius generals in the human race and the blood demon clan, and it was obvious that this battle for the Leaf of Expression had also attracted the great attention of those two super clans.
However, those two guys didn't seem to want to expose their tracks so early, so they secretly helped Cangwu, wanting to use Cangwu to get clues to the Leaf of Expression.
Although he was a little unhappy, because he was really in urgent need of yuan coins, Cangwu also had to become a tool man for those two guys.
During this time, the auction of the clue map has continued to the seventh one, and at this time, Cangwu, who has a great background, can finally not bluff, and after the auction starts, he once again raised the starting price of 50,000 to 500,000.
However, with the addition of more and more disciples of the big forces, the competition has become more and more intense, so even if Cangwu bids 500,000, they can't give up easily.
The price of the map gradually increased, and the number of people participating in the auction became fewer and fewer, Cang Wu watched coldly, waiting for the opportunity to make a move.
"Seven hundred thousand!"
"Seven hundred and fifty thousand!"
"I'll give 800,000! Who else!?"
......
"A million. Cangwu's second bid made those who tried to compete with him hesitate, they originally thought that Cangwu chose to give up after being provoked by Pan Jin, because he was unwilling to spend such a big price to buy such a map, but they didn't expect that Cangwu, who suddenly received two million yuan, could already be quite generous.
"One and a half million!" Another little-known nobody reported a super high price that could not match his ordinary identity at all, this person was also a demon spirit, needless to say, he must also be a candidate sent by Pan Jian and Jiang Hao to interfere with Cangwu.
Cang Wu sneered: "Two million!"
As soon as his words fell, the sound of cold air suddenly became one after another, two million yuan coins is already the highest bid so far, maybe only a local tyrant from the fairy spirit clan like Cangwu would spend money like this!
The demon spirit man who bid 1.5 million had a twitching face, and he looked up at Pan Jian in the box on the second floor with some embarrassment, the weight of these two million was on his head, and he didn't dare to decide whether to follow the price without permission.
However, Pan Jin's face also became particularly exciting, and after a moment of flickering eyes, he finally did not give any other instructions.
Zhai Fan glanced around, and saw that no one continued to follow the price, so he looked at Cang Wu with a smile: "Hehe, then this map belongs to General Cang." ”
"Thank you, Elder Zhai. Cang Wu smiled and threw the two storage crystals out.
After a short time, the map was sent to the box where Cangwu was located through the maidservant.
Holding the rough and simple sheepskin map, Cang Wu quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and after all his efforts, he finally got a map!
