Volume 1: Qi Ge Beicang Chapter 13: The Empty Cicada Baby
"Ladies and gentlemen, please see, this is the next spiritual object to be auctioned, this thing is called the Empty Cicada Baby. ”
Luo Yuxin's jade finger tapped, and the red cloth covered by the spiritual object floated up, and the thing in the plate also revealed its true face, and as far as the eye could see, the thing in the plate was the size of a fist, with black and white patterns, and a baby-like jade block appeared in front of everyone.
Looking closely, the form of this empty cicada baby is like a child, learning to be a martial artist to practice meditation, the baby's eyes are closed, and his face is smiling, but his whole body is black and white, his clothes are twisted, and the smile on his face is becoming more and more weird and gloomy.
Not only that, the longer the viewing time, the more terrifying the creepy feeling in everyone's hearts became, like the gangrene of the appendages, lingering, and those who were slightly lower in the field had already shown fear, trembling in both strands, and their backs were almost wet with cold sweat.
In just a few breaths, the auction hall was silent, and the warm atmosphere created before was all buried in this instant.
"Xin, Miss Xin'er, what the hell is this?"
Finally, a martial artist in the audience spoke in a trembling voice, swallowing saliva again and again, obviously feeling extremely unsettled.
"The adults spoke, Xin'er should have known everything, but I'm sorry, even if this thing has been appraised by the top adults of our Wanbao Pavilion, there is no clue. ”
Luo Yuxin showed a look of shame on her face, and said softly: "Not only that, but my pavilion master even visited Lord Wu Qiuming in person, but unfortunately, even Lord Wu is well-informed, and he can't recognize this material, let alone its origin." ”
"The only thing I can tell you is that this thing is not afraid of ice and fire, and it is not afraid of force, and even the name of this empty cicada baby is named after the scene when this thing was found that day. ”
As soon as these words came out, there was even more silence in the audience, and almost all the warriors looked at each other in amazement.
The divine thoughts that had originally glanced at the empty cicada baby suddenly dispersed, obviously losing interest.
Wu Qiuming.
The protector of the Wufeng Dynasty.
The Beicang Continent is recognized as the world's number one master.
Such a strong man who saw the head and could not see the tail of the dragon couldn't even recognize the origin of this thing, and listened to Luo Yuxin's meaning, and after Wu Qiuming's appraisal, he came to the conclusion that he was not afraid of ice and fire, and was not afraid of force.
Can it be understood in this way, with Wu Qiuming's strength attainments, he can't cause the slightest damage to this strange empty corpse cicada baby.
In other words, is this an ornament that can only be seen but not used?
Thinking of this, the warriors in the field were even more slanderous in their hearts, saying that it sounded good, that is, let's spend money to buy a handicraft?
Luo Yuxin saw that no one spoke, and she was a little cold for a while, not to mention the martial artists in the audience, even she felt a little embarrassed, but in her position, she had to force herself to smile, and said coquettishly: "The empty cicada baby starts the auction, the starting price: five million gold, and the price increase is not less than 100,000 each time." ”
Quiet.
As everyone expected.
Sure enough, there was no one to bid.
This thing looks weird, like an ominous thing, the appearance alone makes people feel cold, not to mention that it's just an ornament, and it's an ornament that even Wu Qiuming can't do, what are you buying it for?
"The mysterious origin of the empty corpse cicada baby only costs five million gold, maybe there is some earth-shattering secret hidden in it. ”
Luo Yuxin looked embarrassed when she saw this, and she cheered up her spirit to encourage the martial artists in the audience, but no matter what she said, no one bid, to be honest, even she didn't believe it, even Wu Qiuming couldn't do anything about it, there was really a secret, and it was her turn?
"In that case, then..."
Seeing this, Luo Yuxin sighed in her heart, it seemed that she could only fail the auction, but she didn't feel too uncomfortable, just the things that were auctioned before, she could get a lot of rewards.
"My son-in-law bid five million. ”
Just when everyone was bored, suddenly a crisp voice sounded, which made everyone look uplifted, and they really wanted to buy it?
"Five million, there are adults bidding five million gold, is there anything higher?"
"Five million at a time..."
"Five million twice..."
"Five million three times... Congratulations!Congratulations!!"
Luo Yuxin was immediately overjoyed when she heard this, and she sang the price again and again, her voice was hurried, as if she was afraid that others would regret it, and she directly finalized the price without giving everyone a chance to react and bid, and for a while, everyone was stunned.
"Next, please next lot..."
Ordering the servant to send the empty cicada baby to the second floor, Luo Yuxin was about to carry out the next auction, but at this time, suddenly a faint voice echoed in the auction room: "Friend, do you have any clue about the empty cicada baby?"
As soon as these words came out, the entire auction hall was silent, and this person's voice was not concealed, it was the voice of Bei Minglan, the deputy owner of Fuyu Villa.
"It's just a curiosity, after all, this is something that even Lord Wu doesn't have a clue about. ”
When Jun Yi heard this, his eyes flashed, and he responded softly.
"Then I don't know if this friend can cut his love? I am willing to pay 10 million gold. ”
Bei Minglan spoke again, making the martial artists in the audience stunned, their eyes flickered, and they secretly said in their hearts: What's the matter? What was no one cared about just now, how can it seem to have become fragrant and sweet? Could it be that there is really some earth-shattering secret in this?
"Alas, if it's something else, why don't friends want to give it to you, it's not in vain to be a friend. ”
Jun Yi's tone sighed lightly and sadly, but in the room, the look on his face was indifferent and ordinary, and he continued: "But... To tell the truth, he was suffering from a stubborn illness in his lower body, and he begged all the famous doctors in the Beicang Continent to be helpless, and begged to be able to meet Master Wu with this thing to see if there was a cure for him. ”
"Excuse me. ”
"I see, I was abrupt. ”
Hearing this, Bei Minglan's tone softened, and he didn't speak again.
The martial artist in the field also dispelled the thoughts in his heart when he heard the words, and there were no superfluous thoughts, it turned out to be such an inside story, but when he heard Jun Yi's words, everyone was sarcastic, dignified Wu Qiuming, how could you say that you can see it? And I haven't heard that Wu Qiuming is proficient in alchemy medicine, so he is really sick and rushed to the doctor.
"Look, my lords, this is ......"
The voices of the two fell, and Luo Yuxin hurriedly spoke, for fear that Jun Yi would regret it, so she opened her mouth again to adjust the atmosphere and prepare for the auction of the next spiritual object.
In the room, Mo Yiqian played with the empty cicada baby in his hand, carefully inspected, but did not have a clue, as if in order to verify what Luo Yuxin said, Mo Yiqian also tried to destroy, but it did not leave a trace of scar on this object, even Mo Yiqian couldn't help but be surprised.
"Childe, this thing is just an ornament, what do you want him to do? The man just now offered 10 million as it was better to sell it. ”
Mo Yiqian looked depressed and put the empty cicada baby in front of Jun Yi's table.
"Furnishings?"
Jun Yi seemed to be smiling, and did not explain the changes in the sea of knowledge, and said softly: "If it is really an ornament, when I bought it just now, no one will be tempted, let alone so many divine thoughts locked." ”
"Oh? Childe mean, there's something wrong with this thing?"
Mo Yiqian was stunned for a moment, and Yue Zhiyu stared at the cicada baby with big eyes, but no matter how you look at it, you can't see why.
"It's nature. ”
Jun Yi glanced at the two of them and said meaningfully: "If it is an ordinary thing, it will not make Wu Qiuming helpless, let alone leave a trace of scars on his appearance, it is said that he has no clue, but it is just an excuse that the strength has not yet arrived and the opportunity has not arrived." ”
"There are two possibilities for this: first, this is a heaven and earth spiritual object, but it was interrupted in the process of gestation and dug up. ”
"Second, it is a strange thing in a secret realm, which was brought out by someone, but died unexpectedly, this thing can only play a role in the secret realm, and when it comes to the outside world, it will be affected and lose its original appearance. ”
"I see. ”
Mo Yiqian and Yue Zhiyu suddenly realized when they heard this.
"But if I can think of it, others can think of it. ”
Jun Yi's expression moved, revealing a thoughtful expression.
"If anyone dares to come and rob Gongzi's things, the old slave will want him to splash his blood on the spot. ”
When Mo Yiqian heard this, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and the anger on his body suddenly appeared, which made Yue Zhiyu's heart chill.
"It's going to be a lot of fun. ”
Jun Yi chuckled, glanced at the empty cicada baby on the table, and then his mind moved, his eyes closed slightly, and Jun Yi came to the sea of knowledge again.
"Buzz!"
At the moment Jun Yi appeared, he was not given any chance to react, and the giant gate in the sea of knowledge shook, and a white mist surged, and in an instant, the empty corpse cicada baby was rolled up, placed in front of the giant gate, floating up and down, as if carefully probing the empty corpse cicada baby.
"That's what this giant gate wants?"
Concubine Luo stood beside Jun Yi, looking at the empty cicada baby not far in front of her, with a puzzled expression.
"It should be right, you and I have figured it out, I guess you also saw it, when I was auctioning outside, after I confirmed this thing, the giant gate mutation quieted down. ”
"And I didn't expect this thing to be so easy. ”
Jun Yi nodded slightly, sat on top of the clouds and mist, and stared at the changes ahead.
"That's right, but you have to be careful, although no one has made a move, but there are really a lot of people who spy on it, there are so many spiritual things in heaven and earth, the more mysterious it is, the more people covet it......"
Concubine Luo opened her mouth slightly, telling Jun Yi to be safe, for her, no spiritual thing was as good as Jun Yi's status in her heart.
"Buzz!"
Jun Yi smiled warmly, his heart warmed, and before he could speak, suddenly the giant gate of the sea trembled slightly, and the white mist that wrapped the empty cicada baby floated up, driving the cicada baby to also move, and the disk rotated.
Such a change made Jun Yi and the two of them look at each other, and Concubine Luo became even more vigilant.
I saw that the cicada baby turned, and the speed was getting faster and faster, and with his movements, the black and white lines on his body danced like ribbons, gradually detaching from the cicada baby's body, as if he was called, and floated towards the giant gate.
The white ones floated above the giant gate, and the black ones sank under the giant gate, and as soon as the two colors touched the giant gate, they dispersed into a mist and poured into it.
As the white and black on the cicada baby's body dissipated, the cicada baby seemed to have some kind of connection with the giant gate, and its original appearance was slowly revealed.
Looking at it closely, Jun Yi and the two suddenly realized, no wonder they looked at this cicada baby quite weird before, it turned out that it was not a face, but two faces into one, its white is the appearance of a baby, and its black is the appearance of a baby, and the two are superimposed together, which will make people feel uncomfortable.
At this time, the empty corpse cicada baby is still meditating like a warrior, but its body is purple and black on the left side, crystal white on the right side, its eyes are slightly closed, and its face is smiling, and the two colors divide the smile into two.
The smile on the left side is domineering and arrogant, quite a sense of ruthlessness, and the opposite of the left side, this smile gives people a violent and ferocious, more like a tyrant, the butcher knife in his hand is held high, and the white bones around him are full of bones, and all the bones are dry.
The smile on the right side of it, warm and elegant, makes people feel like a spring breeze, just a slight glance, it actually gives people a sense of trust, and even unconsciously wants to surrender to it, and the emperor's anger arises spontaneously.
Such a strange scene made Jun Yi and the two of them change their hearts, different from the surprise in Concubine Luo's heart, Jun Yi had a sense of yearning, as if he felt that this thing was tailor-made for him.
As the true appearance of the cicada baby was revealed, the black and white qi on the cicada baby's body absorbed by the giant gate seemed to have changed slightly.
Jun Yi's eyes flashed, and he felt that the power of the Heavenly Dao engraved above was even stronger, and the ghost tomb below was more intense.
