Chapter 149: The Auction Begins

Hundreds of millions of gold coins are undoubtedly astronomical for Li Ding.

It stands to reason that when Miss Zhong said the number of 100 million, Li Ding thought that the people at the scene would be surprised, but when he waited for the result with his heart beating faster, what he got was a silence that disappointed him.

However, when Li Ding noticed the expressions of those people, he understood that those people were not shocked, but they were already stunned and forgot to make a sound.

But these people who often come and go in and out of the auction hall should have long been accustomed to this kind of scene, and after a while, someone on the scene began to whisper, Li Ding also recovered from the shock at this time, looked at the mysterious young man who frowned slightly and said, "What can be worth so many gold coins?"

"I don't know, but I hope I'll meet something interesting this time. The mysterious young man said, and Li Ding noticed that there was no surprise in his eyes, but a faint hint of anticipation.

In an instant, Li Ding understood that although Miss Zhong was facing the people under the high stage, what she said was actually to the people sitting in the private room, although he did not know the identity of the mysterious young man, but Li Ding knew that maybe only people like him could afford to sell those lots.

Outside the window, Miss Zhong's voice sounded again: "Friends, everyone should have seen the wanted notice during the day, due to this well-known reason, although today's auction was held as scheduled, it also had to make temporary adjustments, so there will only be three special lots to bid on today." ”

"...... Uproar"

Suddenly, there was some discordant noise in the originally quiet scene, and although Miss Zhong seemed to be in control of the scene, the temporary decision of the auction house still seemed to have caused some people to be dissatisfied.

"Everyone, don't make a noise, although there are fewer lots, but the chances of hitting are not necessarily less. Because, in order to take care of the friends who gambled on the spot, we also made a temporary decision, we can first return the money that has been pressed to everyone, here I also have to disclose in advance what the type and low price of each lot is, I think if it is an old friend, you should be able to get some information from my words, and it is not impossible to guess the final transaction price. Miss Zhong said unhurriedly.

"...... Uproar"

The scene did not quiet down because of Miss Zhong's words, but became more noisy, but looking at the appearance of those people, they were not expressing dissatisfaction, but excitement.

"This girl is not simple, and I don't know where it came from. The mysterious young man said.

"I only know that her surname is Zhong, and before she escaped from the City Lord's Mansion, it was her father who detained me, and I don't know the rest. Li Ding said.

"Zhong? So she is a member of the Zhong family. The mysterious young man paused suddenly, and after a while, he continued: "Could it be her? I really didn't expect it to be so big in a blink of an eye." ”

"So you know her?" Li Ding heard the meaning of the mysterious young man's words and immediately asked.

The mysterious young man didn't answer Li Ding, but just looked at Miss Zhong Jia, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a smile.

Seeing this, Li Ding could already conclude that the mysterious young man must know Miss Zhong, and the mysterious young man would actually say that he would save himself because of the city lord's want, Li Ding believed that there must be some kind of relationship between them.

Although the mysterious young man didn't do anything to Li Ding for the time being, Li Ding still only hoped that their relationship would not endanger him.

"Okay, without further ado, now I'll introduce some information about the three lots today, friends should listen to it. Miss Zhong's voice sounded again, and the scene immediately became silent.

"This first lot is a treasure sword, and what I can tell you here is that it is very suitable for martial artists with the vitality of the water family, and the reserve price is 1.42 million gold coins. As Miss Zhong's voice fell, there were some whispered remarks in the audience.

"This second lot is a set of martial arts, although there are often ** martial arts and other auctions in the auction hall, and everyone knows that their grades are generally not too high, but today is an exception, but what kind of martial arts is I don't want to say more, what I can tell you is that its reserve price is five million and ten thousand gold coins. ”

In an instant, there was a commotion in the audience, and Li Ding couldn't help but swallow his saliva, but he heard Miss Zhong continue: "This last lot...... It's an elixir......"

Speaking of this, Miss Zhong Jia stopped, looked around with a delicate smile and said word by word: "Bottom...... Price...... Be...... One...... Thousand...... Nine million gold coins. ”

For a while, the audience was boiling, and Li Ding opened his mouth even more in shock, looking at the mysterious young man in disbelief, but saw that his brows were also tightly wrinkled together, and he seemed to be a little surprised by this price.

On the high platform, Miss Zhong seemed to be very satisfied with this result, at this time she walked to the edge of the high platform, holding the fence on the side with one hand, and brushing the hair in her ears with the other hand, smiling with a smile.

"To ...... What kind of elixir is it?" Li Ding finally squeezed out this sentence from his throat, and his body involuntarily leaned close to the window, as if this could see the situation below more clearly.

"Knock ......"

Suddenly, another heavy drum sounded, and the people in the audience became more and more crazy, squeezing towards the counter and negotiating with the people in the counter, Li Ding knew that these people were re-gambling, but he didn't know how it was carried out.

Soon, when the people in the audience finally gradually quieted down, Miss Zhong walked to the center of the high platform again, suddenly raised her hands and slowly put them down, and with her movements, everyone in the audience began to sit on the benches in turn.

"Alright, I now announce that the auction is officially open, please be the first lot. Miss Zhong said as she stepped aside.

Suddenly, another hole appeared in the middle of the circular platform, and a white pillar slowly rose up, and at the top of the pillar was a long knife with a sheath.

The handle is dark brown with a dark red scabbard decorated with a beautiful pattern made of gold thread. The whole knife was about three feet long in total, and in Li Ding's opinion, there was nothing special except that it was a little different from the scimitar used by the pirates, and what he didn't expect was that this knife was worth more than a million gold coins.

Like Li Ding, when the other people in the audience saw this knife for the first time, they may have the same thoughts as him, but the perspective of these people can't be compared with Li Ding in any way, so they have to stretch their necks to take a look, and at the same time whisper about it.

Immediately afterwards, when the white pillar rose to a half-height and stopped, two people suddenly walked up to the high platform. One of them, a young woman dressed in white, nodded to Miss Zhong, stepped forward and picked up the knife, grabbed the handle of the knife and pulled it out halfway.

"Qiang ......"

With a crisp unsheath sound, almost everyone held their breath and showed surprised expressions. Because the part of the knife that was pulled out actually emitted a light blue fluorescent light, what was even more strange was that the blue fluorescent light rippled outward in circles like water waves, and gradually the body of the woman in white seemed to be shrouded in water, like a fairy in the water.

With a bang, the whole knife was pulled out, and a light blue fluorescent light suddenly shot forward with a wave of Pingping, bringing a strong wind to slash directly at another man in black, and the man in black had already raised a black stick on his head, and when the blue light swept over the stick, only to hear the sound of the bell, half of the stick fell on the high platform.

"Iron! just broke with a slight wave?" Li Ding said in surprise, and then in the stands, everyone was shocked by this scene, and it took a while for the crowd to boil.

In a burst of surprise, Miss Zhong said: "The water blue knife, made by the spirit clan using a secret method to integrate the cold ice and iron into the water surname spirit core, the blade is two feet six inches long, the widest outer one inch five, weighs three catties, and naturally emits water blue crystal light, when the user urges the vitality, it has the special ability to condense the water surname Yuan Spirit, and can instantly enhance the effect of the attack several times......"

At this time, Li Ding knew that this knife was indeed extraordinary, and couldn't help muttering: "I really didn't expect it to be so powerful, it turns out that the spirit core also has a surname, no wonder she said that this knife is very suitable for martial artists with the vitality of the water genus." ”

"It's a spiritual weapon on the table, but it's too exquisitely made, unless it's a woman, I don't think ordinary martial artists will like it. The mysterious young man said.

"Spirit weapon?" Li Ding asked, only then did he know the name of this weapon.

Hearing Li Ding's words, the mysterious young man next to him turned his head with a smile and said, "Little brother, you are really a little special. ”

Li Ding was stunned, understanding that his ignorance could not be hidden in front of the mysterious young man, and couldn't help but smile faintly: "To be honest, although I am a cultivator, due to some reasons, there are many things that I don't know, I hope it doesn't affect you." ”

"Haha, it's okay. The mysterious young man also smiled and said, "If you want to know, I can explain it to you." ”

This was the first time that the mysterious young man smiled in front of Li Ding, which made Li Ding stunned, and at this moment, the drum suddenly sounded again.

"Knock ......"

In the low and thick drum sound, Miss Zhong on the round platform suddenly said loudly: "Okay, the low price of the water blue knife is 1.42 million gold coins, and the price increase shall not be less than 100,000 each time, so the gambling price error must be within 100,000, good luck to all friends, now the bidding ......"

However, as soon as Miss Zhong's voice fell, the scene became unusually quiet, and none of the people in the audience spoke, but kept turning their heads to look at the windows of different private rooms. Seeing this, Li Ding's face couldn't help but show doubts.

"Most of the people below are ordinary people, such a price, is no longer what they can afford, and now they only have a share of the gambling price, but unfortunately although they know the starting price, it is not so easy to bet on the transaction price. Seeing Li Ding's appearance, the mysterious young man explained.

Indeed, since it is a bid, no one will know how far it can be added, but looking at the expectant faces of those people below, Li Ding is also full of curiosity about the next bid.

There was a dull silence, and it seemed that the Miss Zhong family on the stage was also a little impatient, but she still kept smiling, swaying her waist and smiling: "Friends, do you think this knife is not eye-catching? You must know that the reason why this knife is shorter, too light, and looks too delicate is because it was originally designed for women, so all the sisters and sisters present should not miss it." Of course, I think it's the perfect gift for someone. ”

Miss Zhong said this very softly, but every sentence clearly entered people's ears, and under her delicate smile, every sentence revealed the meaning of **.

However, to Li Ding's surprise, what she said happened to coincide with what the mysterious young man said before, which made Li Ding have a hint of admiration for the mysterious young man's knowledge, and Li Ding felt that he could really learn something in this auction room.

But what surprised Li Ding even more was that as soon as Miss Zhong's words fell, a window on the third floor on the opposite side suddenly flashed, and several eye-catching green characters appeared on it, and it turned out to be 1.62 million on a closer look. (To be continued.) )
