Chapter 186: Auction Event (6)
The situation below was boiling with shock again, and the alchemists' boxes above were quiet, because most of them didn't even know it. What kind of allusion is the curse letter, of course, this can't be blamed on these alchemists for being lonely and unheard, because in terms of knowledge and knowledge alone, it is difficult for ordinary people to enlighten these top scholars, but this is only for the content related to skills, most alchemists are obsessed with their own research and cultivation, and they don't know as much about the gossip and general legends that circulate between countries as ordinary people. 一 Reading Books ·1ka to n books shu·
But it doesn't matter, after all, there is a native of the Heron Empire present, and when Sheffield throws the problem to Rosenberg as a representative, the foodie puts down the food in his hand for the first time and puts on a sigh to tell this sad allusion:
"Legend has it that a hundred years ago, the general of the Principality of Clarke, Milros, was a down-and-out adventurer when he was young, but in an adventure he accidentally saved the famous beauty magician Epna of the Heron Empire, and the beautiful girl fell in love with the kind and handsome young man at first sight, the two fell in love and went out as an adventurer.
The war on the mainland spread to the Duchy of Clark, and for his homeland, Miros should be recruited to return to Clark to fight for freedom and honor, but because the invading party was the Vieira Empire, an ally of the Heron Empire at that time, Epna, a well-known figure in the Heron Empire, could not help her lover, so the war separated a prospective couple.
The war may be able to envelop the vast land but burn the loyal love, the two only persisted in correspondence for more than ten years, and finally waited for the news of the end of the war, Clark stubbornly won the defense war, driving the murderous invaders out of his land, and Milros was also promoted step by step with his heroic performance in the war, and was finally canonized as a general after the war.

The fiancée who looked forward to the autumn water waited until her lover reached the peak, and when she was ready to recross the love river together, she never expected that what came was a letter of resolute love.
In the letter, Miros said that he was young and frivolous and did not understand love, and after experiencing the baptism of war and life, he was determined to break off his feelings and dedicate all his energy to the cause of strengthening the country, and claimed that he had fallen in love with Clark's eldest princess in the long-term struggle to defend his homeland, and was about to get married. and solemnly advised Epna to forget herself, stop doing unnecessary entanglements, and get rid of a ruthless face to find a new love.
After reading the letter, Epna fainted overnight and lay on the sickbed.
A month later, on the night after the wedding of Miros and the eldest princess took place in the territory of the Duchy of Clark, the newlyweds died mysteriously, and when they were found the next day, they both had strange smiles on their faces.
Clarke, who had lost his war hero and princess, was devastated, and the Vieira Empire took advantage of the situation to capture the Duchy of Clark in one fell swoop, annexing the ruined country.
In this regard, it is rumored that God will punish the man who is responsible for punishing him, resulting in the destruction of the country and the family.
After getting the news, Epuna learned from the pain, and finally came out of the shadows after a year, resolutely decided to give up her identity as a magician and established the 'Purple Lotus Chamber of Commerce', and then slowly grew it, and fifteen years later married and had children with the famous domestic businessman Jedos Grigory.
The story is not complete here, after ten years of marriage, Jados also unfortunately died, and the scene of his death was exactly the same as that of Miros, and what was even more terrifying was that the corpse was holding the letter that Miros wrote to Epna back then.
It turned out that Epuna had not been able to let go, and the letter was kept until her husband found the letter he had hidden in his bedroom. On the surface, although the time is far apart, but because of a letter to create a strange connection, relatives left her again seems to be the same cause of death, this strong woman can no longer withstand the blow and never afford to be ill, which is why her son Mulundin began to preside over the Chamber of Commerce.
And this letter is believed to have been cursed with a terrible curse, bringing Epna a lifetime of suffering and endless doom, and thus became famous on the mainland, but I didn't expect it to be here today!" The story ended, and Rosenberg's emotions were slightly excited.
"This Epuna is such a woman of great affection, and even so the letter has survived to this day!, but why is it being auctioned here today?" said Sheffield.
"This is probably because of Epna's physical condition, I had heard that her condition was serious again before I came here, and I am afraid that time is short. This time, Mullentin was able to bring the letter out at her own behest, and it seemed that she wanted to make a complete break with the past when she was dying.
Alas, if she had seen it earlier, she wouldn't have ended up in the field she is now, for at his current age he would have died early among magicians. ”
"It's a pity, but I'm afraid this so-called 'curse letter' is inappropriate, with our level, we have long understood that this assertion is nonsense, using a substance that has no magical response ability as a carrier, and it is impossible to let the curse continue to take effect after more than twenty years!
"Yes, even if it's to curry favor with the 'Purple Lotus' Chamber of Commerce, I'm afraid it's not good to hear this reputation!" a person next to him echoed Sheffield's judgment.
But no matter how chaotic the environment was, it didn't affect Xiao Yi, just listen to him continue the process:
"There is no appraisal of this letter, there is no upper limit! The reserve price is five thousand gold coins, and each increase in price must not be less than one hundred gold coins. From below, you can go on stage to inspect the lots, and after half an hour, the official bidding begins. ”
The voice landed, but contrary to the situation of the first lot, no one came forward to check the fiery red letterhead.
After a long time, a middle-aged Sven man who had just stepped on the stage stood up first and said:
"Mr. Shaw, my name is Pledley and I am a senior appraiser, and I have come to bid on behalf of the Marquis of Buck Court this time, and I have to make some comments about this lot.
First of all, the theory of whether this letter was really as miraculous as it was circulated is probably a foregone conclusion in various professional circles, and the claim that this letter was cursed is pure nonsense from any point of view, so there is no need to verify its authenticity.
Second, even as a cultural relic, this letter does not bring a memorable chapter of beauty and good luck, I am afraid that no one except for some collectors with special fetishes is not interested, judging from the reaction on the scene just now, you should have understood, so in order to take care of everyone's emotions and face, I suggest that you consider putting this lot on hold for the time being and looking for another way to change hands. ”
Pledley's words received a lot of approval from the scene, but Xiao Yi seemed to have settled on the style of not being shocking and endless, and continued to break the news with a calm expression:
"Because it is a commissioned auction, according to the usual practice, it is not appropriate for the auctioneer to publish the appraisal results to mislead everyone by announcing the appraisal results before everyone conducts the on-site inspection, and since there are no guests on the scene who need to exercise this right, I will talk about my appraisal results of this letter.
In fact, I don't think the 'cursed letter' is credible, so this letter is not genuine by the standards of legend, because strictly speaking, the word 'curse' would be the greatest insult to this great love. ”
