Chapter 85: The Night I
The competition for the auction has arrived**. 【】
Looking at the unbelievable prices quoted from one box to another, even if everyone traveled south and north to see a lot of knowledge, they couldn't help but open their mouths wide one by one. What is especially surprising is that in addition to the VIP boxes of the royal representatives, there are also a few ordinary boxes that are bidding, and the ferocity is no worse than the previous box.
The fat old man slipped in from outside again, and it seemed that he had settled the problem over there.
I don't know why, the fat old man is obviously more interested in Wang Feng than those royal representatives, and most of the time is spent here during the entire auction period.
The artifact has now been hyped to a high price of more than five million, but it still has no momentum to stop.
The artifact should be about to be decided, and there are only three boxes left on the scene that are still being quoted. At this time, the fat old man suddenly asked mysteriously: "Captain Wang Feng, I don't know what your plans are after you sell this artifact?"
Everyone's attention was attracted by the fat old man's words, and their eyes were staring towards this side. Wang Feng let out a soft "oh" and asked the fat old man rhetorically: "What do you mean by the fat old man?"
The fat old man didn't pay attention to staring at him, just looked at Wang Feng, and said slowly: "Such an artifact, Captain Wang Feng said let it go." Looking at the entire Big 6, even including myself, I have never seen a person with such elegance. ”
Looking at Wang Feng's reaction, the fat old man continued: "If it weren't for knowing that Captain Wang Feng was the one who retrieved the artifact in the first place, I wouldn't have believed anything. Unless the artifact is fake, but since so many connoisseurs, including the old man, I can't show any flaws myself, the artifact must not be wrong. ”
"In this case, let go of the artifact twice, that is to say, Captain Wang Feng has never been interested in this artifact, I wonder if Captain Wang Feng can solve my doubts?"
When Chuck and Aisha first got the artifact, the Wind Bow was still completely unusable, so they could at least get a decent reward for handing over the artifact. But this time it was different, the artifact was not only a complete set, but also a complete method of recognizing the owner, in this case, they couldn't imagine what Wang Feng was for.
Smiling faintly, Wang Feng said, "Maybe you have only seen the glorious side of holding the artifact, but you have never imagined the sorrow of their master. Greed cannot be restrained, and once you hold an artifact, friends, relatives, and subordinates will become untrustworthy people. Once such a situation is born, what is the meaning of this person's life? I don't want my limited number of friends and subordinates to become my enemies. ”
Although he said that, Wang Feng secretly thought in his heart: If it weren't for the old fox of the Vulcan Empire who wanted to focus the attention of the big 6 on the artifact through my hand, it is unknown whether he could get the method of recognizing the master so easily.
I don't know how the fat old man felt about his answer, but several people around Wang Feng obviously had some reactions. However, the current Wang Feng can't take care of these, the fat old man's question is too abrupt, and it seems a little shallow and profound, which is very suspicious.
The fat old man also noticed this, and immediately snorted and explained: "I have something I want to talk to Captain Wang Feng, I don't know if Captain Wang Feng appreciates his face." ”
Of the people in this room, only Chuck is the one who is most familiar with the fat old man. Wang Feng didn't speak, just turned his head to Chuck's side. Chuck looked at the boss, then at the fat boss, and nodded slowly and deeply.
Seeing Chuck nodding, Wang Feng didn't say much, turned his head and nodded to the fat old man. The fat old man showed a rare look of joy and said, "I will come to you after the auction." After saying that, he said hello to everyone and left the VIP room.
The price of the artifact has been set, staying at seven million gold coins. The host is already asking for the price a second time. The surrounding boxes were silent, and no one answered. Finally, after asking the price for the third time, the mallet in the host's hand was knocked down heavily and the deal was struck.
There was a knock at the door of the box, and Chuck rushed over to open it, and outside the door was a man dressed as a servant. The servant gave a salute before he spoke: "In order to ensure the safety of all the VIPs, please wait in the VIP room first, and wait for our special protection personnel to come and send you out." ”
It should have been specially arranged by the royal auction house to protect the safety of the guests, and everyone didn't care, sitting quietly in the box.
It had been quite a long time, long enough for all the dignitaries to be escorted out of the Celestial City one by one according to the highest level of protection, before there was a knock at the door. Before anyone could open the door, the people outside had already opened the door and came in by themselves.
Except for the fat old man, no one dares or can't be so presumptuous in front of the auction house and VIPs.
The first thing the fat old man said when he came in was sorry. Afterwards, the fat old man said to Wang Feng: "Captain Wang Feng, the buyer of the artifact needs you to tell him in person how to recognize the master." We've arranged the venue, and no one will be able to go in except the two of you. There is also a silent magic barrier there, and no one else can hear the secret of the Lord. ”
Wang Feng did not refuse, these were originally what he should have explained to the buyer. Letting everyone stay in the VIP room, Wang Feng left the box alone with the fat old man, passed through the hall that was now empty, and came to a passage.
There were many rooms in the passage, and the fat old man seemed to enter one casually. When they entered, they were empty. The fat old man looked at Wang Feng's expression and said with a smile: "This is just a portal, and the arranged place is very secret." As he spoke, he took the lead and walked into a pattern drawn on the ground, Wang Feng paid attention to it, which was somewhat similar to the magic array when he arrived in the other world.
Not long after standing side by side with the fat old man on the magic array, the magic array began to light. It wasn't the first time that Wang Feng had sat on the teleportation, so he wouldn't make a fuss, but he was just surprised that there was such a high-level magician in this small auction house.
White light flashed, and it was a distinct dark room. There are quite a few people around. Wang Feng turned his head to look at the fat old man, who pointed to an obvious door opposite and motioned for him to enter. But he stood still and did not move.
Wang Feng slowly approached the door, and immediately someone appeared to stop him: "I'm sorry, sir, you can't bring your weapon in." "Reach out and take the knife in Wang Feng's hand.
How could it be possible for others to touch their own knives so easily, Wang Feng retreated, and the man grabbed a void.
Unexpectedly, the man appeared as a bodyguard dressed as a samurai. There was a look of surprise on his face, as if he was surprised how Wang Feng avoided his inevitable grasp.
The fat old man's voice came from behind: "The people in this dark room are very noble, so those who enter this dark room are not allowed to carry weapons. After a pause, the fat old man explained: "This is what his bodyguard meant." "The intention is obvious, this arrangement has nothing to do with the auction house itself.
The bodyguard in front waited for the fat old man to finish speaking, and saw that Wang Feng had no intention of putting down his weapon at all, and couldn't help but be annoyed. But he still maintained good courtesy, and said politely: "Sir, please leave your weapon." ”
Wang Feng smiled lightly and asked, "Is there no one who can bring weapons in?"
The bodyguard replied proudly, "No one can!"
"Oh," Wang Feng asked, "What about your master in there?"
"How dare you, a little mercenary, compare to my master?" Of course, this sentence was turned in the bodyguard's head, and he didn't say it.
After glaring at Wang Feng for a while, the bodyguard spoke: "Of course, my master's weapon is left outside. As if to confirm his words, a person immediately flashed in the darkness behind him, holding a luxurious and exquisite sword in both hands, and showed it to Wang Feng.
The scabbard is decorated with grace and luxury, although all kinds of shiny gemstones are used, but there is no such ostentatious publicity, it is obviously a style carefully designed by master craftsmen. The hilt of the sword is also set with a large ruby lined with a faint flickering fire, and the beautifully cut surface reflects a dazzling dark red light. Those who can use this sword are obviously not ordinary noble.
Since this mysterious master has expressed enough sincerity, all the bodyguards and the fat old man thought that Wang Feng would also give this master a face, and entered empty-handed. But Wang Feng didn't seem to see it, and he had to carry a knife to enter.
Secretly, a few more bodyguards flashed out, and together with the two who appeared first, they blocked in front of Wang Feng. Several people's hands were already on the hilt of the sword at their waist. As long as Wang Feng takes another step forward, they will definitely make a move without hesitation.
Wang Feng stopped again, turned his head and asked the fat man, "Fat old man, didn't they say that they couldn't bring weapons?" Then why did their master bring weapons in?"
The fat old man didn't know what Wang Feng meant, so he could only respond and say, "Is this this? It looks like their master didn't bring a weapon into it! In a word, both sides gave some face. is worthy of being the backstage boss of the auction house.
Several bodyguards also gave the fat old man a lot of face, and one of the bodyguards stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation, signaling that Wang Feng could hand over the weapon to the fat old man.
Wang Feng shook his head and did not move. Everyone looked at each other, and even the fat old man couldn't speak, not knowing what to say. Several bodyguards had already drawn their swords and looked at Wang Feng with fierce eyes. One of the bodyguards suppressed his anger and shouted in a low voice that seemed to come out of his throat: "Our master is not armed. ”
"Is their owner the buyer of the artifact?" Wang Feng still asked the fat old man in the back.
The fat old man seemed to have thought of something, and replied loudly in the back: "Yes." ”
"So where is the artifact now?" Wang Feng then asked.
"It has been delivered to the buyer and should be carried with him. The fat old man was not verbose at all, and replied fluently.
Wang Feng smiled and looked at the few bodyguards opposite, and asked, "I don't know what the artifact on your master's body is?"
