Chapter 65: The Auction 1
I can't help but say that Shi Jingjing is a beautiful woman, and she also takes care of her career, if Lang Zhiwei, who is not ambitious, does not fall in love with her, it will be the biggest strange thing in the world.
Lang Zhiwei immediately invited Shi Jingjing to dinner, and when the two came out of the company, Shi Jingjing held Lang Zhiwei's arm, as if they were a couple who had been together for several years.
Lang Zhiwei straightened his body and had a sweet look on his face, like a general returning from victory.
Seeing that the two were so close, Chen Zhen started the vehicle with a straight face and slowly drove forward.
Chen Zhen also has a good impression of Shi Jingjing, seeing that Lang Zhiwei invited her to dinner, and it was in such an intimate state, there was a sour feeling in his heart, and at the same time, his impression of Shi Jingjing was also reduced.
Men like women to be intimate when they are with them, and reserved when they are with other men, and Chen Zhen is no exception.
Although He Xianquan is young, he still has some understanding of the subtle feelings between men and women, whether it is Hua Xiaoya, Li Xiaohui or Shi Jingjing, he is treated as a sister, and only when he is with Qin Yiyi, who is of a similar age, will there be ripples in his heart.
Compared with Chen Zhen, who has been in society for a long time, he is a hairy child at best, so he just sighed and turned his face out of the car window.
Through tonight's conversation, He Xianquan got a lot of useful information. The first is to confirm the existence of the Ghost Hunting Association, and the second is to know that the Ghost Hunting Academy is in Tianli Farm, and whether it is underground remains to be traced. The most important point is that Wang Weiqian is very likely to enter the Ghost Hunting Academy to study, otherwise it would be impossible to ask for so much money.
A trip to the Ghost Hunt Academy is a must, and the referrer should be no problem, although Lang Zhiwei is only a student, it should not be a big problem to introduce his teacher. The biggest problem is how to get the money!
From the first contact with Shen Wuji, He Xianquan felt that the money in the world was not worth much in the eyes of these strangers, and these people often sold hundreds of thousands, millions, and spent money like running water, no wonder even a student who interned at the Ghost Hunting Academy drove an Audi Q7.
Money!
Now Shi Jingjing doesn't have much money in his hands, and he can't pay for the tuition of the Ghost Hunting Academy at all, and the remaining possibility is to participate in the auction of the goddess, maybe the medicines and equipment he brought back from the underworld can still be worth some money.
He Xianquan sighed, looked at the time, and used his mobile phone to contact the goddess.
After hearing He Xianquan's voice, the goddess let out a long breath and said, "I thought you wouldn't come, but fortunately you called, otherwise these old guys around me would have turned against me, hehehe......"
That address is an upscale community, and the people living in it are either rich or expensive.
He Xianquan sighed again, whether it is a ghost hunter or a folk god, at least financially very well-off, far from the feeling of the goddess in his hometown, the family is destitute.
Maybe those goddesses in the countryside are really "goddesses".
The two came to the gate of the community, and after some registration and inspection, they entered the door, and under the leadership of a security guard, they entered the residential building that the goddess told them.
The hall on the first floor is extremely luxuriously decorated, giving people the feeling of a five-star hotel lobby, a property service staff sat behind a desk, and after seeing He Xianquan and the two come in, he asked again, and at the same time used the communication system to ask the goddess before letting the two in.
In Ho Xianquan's words, the security of the place where the goddess lives is extremely strict, and it is about to catch up with the Pentagon in the United States.
The entire fourteenth floor of the goddess's residence, with the two units opposite, was opened up to become a huge dwelling.
When the goddess saw Chen Zhen and the strange young man, she was stunned. At this time, He Xianquan was disguised, and even his figure had changed, so the goddess naturally couldn't recognize it.
She looked at Chen Zhen on the side.
Chen Zhen looked at He Xianquan and saw that he nodded, so he said: "Xiao He has some things to do, and he is disguised, so please keep it a secret on your behalf." ”
The goddess made a look of understanding, nodded at He Xianquan, and glanced at the yin and yang ring on his hand again, then relieved her heart and led the two into the room.
The goddess led the two to the living room, where a circle of Italian leather sofas was placed in the center of the spacious living room, and in the middle of the sofa was a huge natural crystal table that could be rotated.
There were more than a dozen people sitting on the sofa, the youngest of them was almost forty years old, all dressed in ordinary clothes, and their appearance was not characteristic, and they would hardly be recognized when thrown into the crowd.
People leisurely sipping tea, talking in small voices.
Seeing that the goddess led He Xianquan and the two of them in, everyone stood up in unison, and the living room, which was originally quite lively, suddenly quieted down.
He Xianquan's face turned red, he was still a little uncomfortable with everyone's respect, after all, the youngest of these people was about forty years old, and the older ones were enough to be his grandfather.
The goddess introduced He Xianquan to everyone, his identity is now He Xianquan's representative, and he came with He Xianquan's driver Chen Zhen, and also introduced everyone's identities one by one. The identities of these people don't mean much to He Xianquan, they are all stragglers who are wandering on the rivers and lakes, and they are not in the circle of the Ghost Hunting Association.
Everyone was still puzzled, although He Xianquan and they had not seen it, but the information was that they had seen it, and it was completely different from the two young people in front of them. Listening to the goddess's explanation, this can be regarded as understanding, and the degree of respect for He Xianquan and Chen Zhen is also much worse, and they both withdrew their eyes and chatted in twos and threes.
After taking their seats, everyone turned their attention to the goddess.
The goddess cleared her throat and said, "Now that everyone is here, let's begin." There are three items in the first round, so please put the items that the person in question brings on the crystal table. With that, he took out a turquoise jade sword from his pocket and put it on the crystal platform.
"This jade sword is a magic weapon before Zhang Tianshi was thirty years old, made of extraterritorial cold jade, and left to future generations after ascending, which can avoid water and fire, is extremely hard, comparable to steel, and the interior was engraved with Taoist talismans by Zhang Tianshi using the supreme magic method. After several rounds of circulation, the jade sword was acquired by a mighty man, and then buried in the grave along with the death of the mighty one. The goddess said.
The function of the jade sword is to amplify the power of the spell, and the magnification is related to the degree of control of the wielder over the sword, and it is said that someone can complete fifty percent control and get a threefold bonus to the spell! If you are in full control, you don't know how far you can go! In addition, it also has a restraining effect on evil things, and ordinary evil things are almost impossible to get close to.
The jade sword has some other functions, but no one knows about it, because since Zhang Tianshi, no one has been able to control the jade sword 100%.
As soon as the words ended, a sound of surprise rang out among the crowd, and a small discussion began. In addition to the function of the jade sword, the content of the discussion is how the goddess obtained the jade sword.
Since it was a great power to use the jade sword as a burial object, it was natural that the tomb robbers would have to come forward to take it out. The tombs of the mighty are not only hidden, but most of them are equipped with mechanisms, and I don't know how many lives it took to get this jade sword!
The goddess looked at everyone, but did not care about everyone's criticism, and showed a proud look on her face.
After a while, an old man with a red face stood up and took out a small translucent porcelain bottle from his arms, and it could be seen that there were some small pale red pills inside.
"This pill was left by the medicine king back then, and according to legend, it was made of the fire dates of Penglai Xiandao, which has the function of increasing longevity." The red-faced old man introduced, his voice was very loud, and it actually shook people's eardrums a little painfully, so he put the small porcelain bottle on the crystal platform, and then sat leisurely on the sofa, obviously he felt that his bottle of medicine surpassed the jade sword of the goddess in value.
This time it did not surprise everyone, but the discussion was still the same.
A middle-aged man in a suit showed a look of disbelief on his face and asked, "How can you prove that this little pill has the function of increasing longevity?" ”
Everyone echoed, and at the same time looked at the red-faced old man.
The red-faced old man was very dissatisfied when he saw that his words were questioned, the red on his face became even thicker, and he stood up again and said: "I can't do it with scientific proof, but I am now one hundred and two years old, this is the best proof, I don't believe you can look at my ID card." ”
He spoke in a loud and loud voice, apparently in good health, and his state could be described by the word "Bell".
Everyone turned their eyes to the old man again, and no one dared to believe that the red-faced old man in front of him, who looked like he was in his sixties, was actually an old man in his hundreds, and looking at his current appearance, even if he lived for another forty or fifty years, it would not be a problem.
People rumored that the old man was already over 100 years old, and the ID card was real, which was confirmed by a person who was a police officer at the scene.
The goddess also stood up and introduced the identity of the old birthday star to everyone, he is the descendant of the medicine king, and it is normal to have some longevity drugs in his hands.
The old man also took the opportunity to tell the origin of the pill.
The crowd erupted in applause, but not for the longevity of the old man, but for the pill made from the bottle of jujube.
Legend has it that the three stars of Fu Lu Shou on Penglai Immortal Island each have a plant, the lucky star is the fire date, the Lu star is the pear, and the birthday star is the green lotus, the three kinds of immortals can increase the longevity, although it is not as good as the peach of the queen mother, nor as good as the ginseng fruit of Zhenyuan Daxian, but it is advantageous in terms of quantity, so the number of jujubes, pear, and green lotus in the world is also relatively large.
Legend has it that the jujube tree was brought back by Fuxing from Hongmeng, and after his careful cultivation, it sprouts, takes root, blooms, and bears fruit, and you can pick a lot of jujube every time.
Ordinary people can increase their life span by ten years if they eat a jujube.
However, looking at the pills in the porcelain bottle of the red-faced old man, it should be a pill made of some other medicines, not pure fire dates, even so, it makes the red-faced old man in his more than 100 years old seem to be in his sixties, and looking at the function of the body, it should be very healthy.
The life expectancy of human beings is limited, with the improvement of medical conditions, the average life expectancy of modern people has increased greatly, the average life expectancy is about 65 to 70 years old, and the elderly who can live to be over 90 years old in health are considered to be long-lived.
People are very attached to life, and if there is a drug that can prolong people's life, I am afraid that many people will pay any price for it.
Therefore, once this bottle of medicine is confirmed to be effective, it will be auctioned off for a sky-high price!
