Suddenly, he paused.

Footsteps.

There was footsteps outside the door.

He looked at the hidden door in horror: "Who? ”

It can't be Mr. Cao's people, right?

The thought made him hairy.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, the steps were steady, and each step seemed to hit his heart.

Footsteps stopped outside the door.

Quiet.

Deathly silence.

The dragon king felt that his heart was about to jump to his throat, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Finally, the door opened silently.

There was no one outside the door.

However, the footsteps sounded again, and they were coming towards him step by step from the door.

"Who?" He asked in a panic, his voice trembling, "Are you a human or a ghost?" ”

No one answered him, but the footsteps were getting closer, already close at hand.

The tense string in his head suddenly broke, and he screamed, rolled over, and crawled the ground, trying to escape.

However, the unseen figure stood by his side all the time, as if the gods were watching a beam-jumping clown.

"Don't, don't kill me!" He looked ahead in horror and inexplicably, still couldn't see anything, and could only beg for mercy into the air, "Please, I know it's wrong, please spare me......"

Immediately after, his face froze.

He lowered his eyelids in horror and found a deep scar on his neck.

The scar was thin, splitting from the front and spreading backwards until the entire neck was severed.

It's like being cut off by a thin thread.

In his last memory, he saw that his arms and legs were severed, turning him into a human stick.

He fell to the ground, revealing his last despair before he died.

When he died, the footsteps sounded again, and they walked away step by step.

The girls who remained in the cage didn't know what was going on, they just felt terrified.

A deep fear that came up from the depths of my heart.

Bai Zhou and Xun Ling took a taxi to the east of the city.

It's a long way from the royal family and the four major families, close to the suburbs.

Bai Zhou looked up and saw a very magnificent building, which blended the styles of the hot summer, Manraka and the body (yuan) poison country, forming a unique fusion of beauty.

Xun Ling whispered: "This used to be the mansion of a dignitary, he used to be the prime minister, but later offended the four major families and was exiled by the king. The mansion was taken over by the royal family and became the king's private property. Fifty years ago, the previous king converted it into an auction house. ”

At this time, the auction was about to begin, and there were no more customers at the door, only two security guards in suits.

Xun Ling took out the admission ticket, the two of them glanced at it, and then said: "If you are not well-dressed, you will not be accepted." ”

Bai Zhou looked at himself, wearing a shirt and jeans: "What's wrong?" I'm not naked. ”

The security guard said: "Men must wear suits or dresses, and women must wear Western-style evening dresses or national costumes. ”

Xun Ling was a little anxious, it was too late to change her dress now.

Bai Zhou looked at the top of the heads of the two security guards, stepped forward, and said in a low voice: "Xiong Yaozu, did you sell the blue and white porcelain plate of the Ming Dynasty that you stole from you?" ”

The security guard was struck by lightning.

His face was full of disbelief, and his hands trembled slightly.

Bai Zhou looked at another security guard again: "Li Zhengde, which wronged man did you sell the plum bottle you stole during the Qianlong period?" ”

The two barely stood still.

The auction house is far from the palace, but it also has bedrooms for the royal family to rest, and there are many precious antiques in the bedrooms.

But it is difficult for those members of the royal family to come and stay once a year, and even if they do, they can't recognize the authenticity of those foreign antiques.

Therefore, many people in the auction house quietly steal antiques to sell, as long as they do not steal the lots, there is no need to worry.

But if the matter is revealed and the royal family knows about it, according to the law of Manraka, it will be cut off!

Bai Zhou looked at them silently, and they were also silent.

After a long time, they took the ticket and said, "Two of you, please." ”

Bai Zhou's voice was very soft just now, only she and those two people could hear it, Xun Ling looked puzzled: "Woman, what did you tell them just now?" Why do they seem to be terrified? ”

"Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door." Bai Zhou said, "Since they are afraid, they naturally have done something wrong." ”

Xun Ling was even more puzzled.

Isn't it your first time in Manraka? How come you even know what the two little people have done?

The decoration in the auction house is even more luxurious, and there are gold and jade inlays everywhere, which are so golden that people's eyes hurt.

In fact, the decoration in many places is only gilt or gilded, but these countries in the southeast region just like this kind of golden and brilliant style, as if it is not full of gold and jade, it cannot show the wealth of the master's family.

The auction has begun, and a master of ceremonies on the stage is introducing the lots, and the seats below are full of dignitaries.

Those who can enter and exit this kind of place are either rich or expensive, all of them are jeweled, and the women are as beautiful as flowers, which is very eye-catching.
