Chapter 182: Mysterious Buddha Statue
The picture of the faceless woman was finally photographed by the woman who tried to turn positive.
The auction continues.
Soon, two more things were auctioned, a painting by a modern writer, the starting price was 800 yuan, and it was finally sold for 50,000 yuan.
There is also a modern glass carving, which looks very gorgeous, and is said to be the work of a master in the glass carving circle, and finally sold for 100,000 yuan.
"I can't believe that there is such a small thing in this auction." Zhang Chu said in a low voice.
Tang Duo said with a smile: "That's the way it is, the auction is not about everything for millions, I have also seen an auction where a six-year-old child's painting is sold, and the starting price is only 100 yuan." ”
Shangguan Tianxue dozed off: "Ah...... So boring. ”
And at this moment, the auctioneer said again: "The next thing to be auctioned is a bit special, a special Buddha statue!" ”
Soon, someone carried a Buddha statue more than one meter high on a plate, and the Buddha statue was covered with a red cloth, so that the true appearance of the Buddha statue could not be seen.
At this time, the auctioneer said: "The carving style of this Buddha statue is very interesting, it is divided into two sides, the front is a Buddha in a strange posture, and the back, a Taoist with a mysterious handprint. ”
After saying that, someone removed the red cloth from the Buddha statue.
A black carving appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Zhang Chu wasn't interested in it, but when this item appeared, his heart suddenly moved: "Huh? ”
At this moment, in Zhang Chu's sea of knowledge, the Star Tower moved slightly, as if he noticed the abnormality of this Buddha statue.
At the same time, Zhang Chu himself could also feel that a strange power fluctuation came from the Buddha statue.
This power fluctuation was very secretive, but it was still captured by Zhang Chu.
At this time, Zhang Chu carefully observed the Buddha statue, the Buddha statue was very thin, and there was no fat and festive sense of Maitreya Buddha at all, it looked like the Buddha statue was more like malnutrition, giving people a skinny feeling.
The auctioneer also introduced in detail: "This Buddha statue is slightly different from the Buddha statue we commonly know, it comes from the ancient Western Regions, and it is something dug up from the desert by a team of explorers. ”
"The front of the Buddha statue, according to our research, should be pinched is the seal of suffering, this kind of seal is rarely used by the Buddha statue, because this seal represents the hell of Tantra."
"At the same time, we can see that the facial features of this Buddha statue are very miserable, as if crying, so we think that this thing should be cast by some desperate monks when a mysterious dynasty in history is about to fall."
Immediately afterwards, the auctioneer asked the Buddha statue to be turned around.
On the back of the Buddha statue, it turned out to be a Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest also looked thin, but his face was round and looked red.
At this time, the auctioneer said: "To be honest, we have consulted many experts about the true meaning of this collection, and they can't tell. ”
"The back of the Buddha, why would it be a Taoist priest."
"Whether this Taoist priest has some special meaning, or whether there was indeed such a Taoist priest in history, we don't know."
"But one thing is for sure, this thing is definitely an antiquity, and it is 1,600 years old through carbon determination."
"If it weren't for the casualties of the archaeological team and the urgent need for a sum of money to resettle the team members, I'm afraid that the archaeological team would be reluctant to auction this thing."
At this moment, many people at the scene also started to discuss.
It can be seen that many collectors are very interested in this item.
Zhang Chu was also very interested, this thing could actually cause the movement of the Star Tower, it must be no small thing.
At this time, the auctioneer spoke: "Okay, the reserve price of this thing, 10 million!" ”
When the floor price was opened, everyone gasped.
For most collectors, it's just an object that doesn't know the exact date, its role and background, or even the material.
Direct 10 million, a little dark.
Zhang Chu sighed in his heart: "It's special, it's so expensive!" ”
If you want to say that there is a one-in-10,000 possibility of going to Xuyuan Street to pick up a leak, then if you want to pick up a leak at the auction, it is simply like picking stars from the sky, it is impossible at all.
Of course, even if he couldn't find the leak, Zhang Chu planned to take a picture of this thing and study it carefully to see why this thing could cause the vibration of the Star Tower in his body.
Zhang Chu did not make a rash bid.
Otherwise, if someone knows that he has taken a fancy to it, it may cause others to bid indiscriminately, Zhang Chu still wants to see if anyone else on the scene is interested in it.
Scanning the audience, I found that almost all collectors shook their heads slightly.
No one wants to gamble a fortune on something of unclear origin and odd shape.
This is also obviously the case with auctioneers as well.
She smiled and said to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, although the positioning of this thing is not clear, its age is true, perhaps, this thing can prove the existence of some ancient countries in the ancient Western Regions. ”
"Even, the legendary ancient kingdom of Loulan may be related to it, such a thing, if its origin can be verified, I am afraid that it will become a priceless treasure."
"Ten million, is there really no one to think about it?"
However, no matter what the auctioneer said, he did not raise his card.
Eventually, the auctioneer shook his head slightly: "Well, since everyone is not interested, then ......"
"One thousand and ten thousand!" A lazy voice suddenly spoke.
Everyone suddenly turned their heads and looked at the bidder.
It's not Zhang Chu, it's the young man next to Pang Chong, Wang Gaoyang!
"Huh?" Zhang Chu frowned, and a bad premonition appeared in Zhang Chu's heart: "Could it be that his plan is similar to mine?" ”
At this moment, Zhang Chu carefully observed Wang Gaoyang, and then Zhang Chu was surprised to find that he couldn't see his reality clearly.
This Wang Gaoyang's whole body seems to be shrouded in a special aura, either because he has a good cultivation and can prevent ordinary people from prying eyes, or because he has some kind of treasure protection on his body.
But in any case, the fact that this person made a bid for this item is enough to prove that this person is a bit of a doorman.
Beside Zhang Chu, Shangguan Tianxue felt Zhang Chu's emotions, and she immediately asked in a low voice, "Zhang Chu, do you want this thing too?" ”
Zhang Chu nodded slightly: "This thing is a bit weird. ”
"I'll shoot it for you?" Shangguan Tianxue asked.
Zhang Chu shook his head slightly: "No, let's see the situation first." ”
Now Zhang Chu is rich, but he doesn't want to end so quickly, because Zhang Chu found that Wang Gaoyang seemed to be the only one who was interested in this thing at the scene.
Sure enough, without waiting for the auctioneer to urge, someone suddenly raised a sign: "One thousand and fifty thousand!" ”
The rules of the auction are that each price increase shall not be less than 10,000 yuan.
When Wang Gaoyang saw that someone was competing with him, he immediately shouted lazily: "Eleven million!" ”
"One thousand one hundred and fifty thousand!" Another voice immediately followed.
"Twelve million!" Wang Gaoyang was no longer lazy this time, but sat up straight, looking as if he was starting to get serious.
"One thousand two million and fifty thousand!" The voice continued to shout.
Zhang Chu smiled, this auction is a bit interesting.
It seems that it is not only the situation that has been discovered by itself.
"If that's the case, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get this Buddha statue at a cheap price." Zhang Chu sighed in his heart.
