Chapter 21: Auction (II) Seeking Collection and Attention
Han Jing stood in front of the stage, her body was soft and elegant.
"Tonight's auction is coming to an end, on behalf of Han Shuangcheng, I, Han Jing, would like to thank all the guests for coming, and now, I would like to present to you the final lot of today's auction," Han Jingwei said.
Han Jing's palm pointed to the back steps, a beautiful maidservant walked slowly with a jade plate in her hand, Han Jing lifted the brocade silk covered on the jade plate, and a pitch-black scroll appeared in front of everyone.
"This thing is a scroll of exercises, the name of the exercises: Xuanmu exercises, and the grade of the exercises: Yellow Rank low."
Before Han Jing finished her introduction, the venue was already booed, many people coaxed, and Wang Baichong shouted:
"Hehe, a volume of yellow-level low-level exercises is also used as a finale lot, could it be that you Han Shuangcheng can't get a decent lot like this, this young master doesn't mind borrowing one or two pieces for you, as long as you open your mouth."
Wang Bai Chongshe licked his lips and looked at Han Jing on the high platform, lewd and rippling.
In the face of everyone's doubts and Wang Baichong's unreasonable ridicule, Han Jing on the stage had no other emotions on her face except for showing a bright smile like a flower, and it was really a calm and capable old Jianghu, Han Jing stretched out her hand to signal the venue to be quiet.
When the venue gradually quieted down, Han Jing lightly opened her red lips and said:
"After listening to my introduction, it's not too late to make an evaluation."
I saw Han Jingyu pick up the scroll in her hand, rub the black fabric on the surface of the scroll, look at the audience, and speak again:
"Although the grade of this Xuanmu Exercise is low-level of the Yellow Order, this is a genuine volume of exercises suitable for mutated metabodies, everyone should have heard of them, the ten-level metaphysical body is called the non-dual-element body, the ultimate non-dual-element body, which may cause abnormalities in some parts of the body the day after tomorrow, and this exercise is suitable for the cultivation of those with eye deviants."
There was silence in the venue, Han Jing looked around, and saw that everyone was listening carefully, and had successfully aroused the interest of the guest, so she smiled and said:
"This kind of exercise is rare in the world, and it is rumored that this exercise is from the hand of a Yuan Emperor in the era of the first civilization, even if it is a low-level Yellow Order, it is already extremely precious, and now it can appear in our Han Shuangcheng auction house, out of respect for the ancestors of the predecessors, it must also be set as the finale lot."
When everyone in the venue heard the word Emperor Yuan, their eyes were full of golden light and they were salivating.
"Don't talk nonsense, just make a quote," shouted an impatient guest in the room.
"Okay, Xuanmu Exercises, offer three million low-grade Yuan Crystal Stones, the bidding will begin", Han Jing turned to look at Lin Xi and deliberately delayed her tone and said.
In Han Jing's eyes, this Lin Xi is her god of wealth, as long as he speaks, there will be rich rich bidders.
The million-dollar reserve price offered by this one-stone set off a thousand waves in this quiet venue, some people argued with each other, and some people secretly smacked their tongues.
Anyone who understands knows that although this exercise is rare and precious, people who have no dual body can be seen everywhere, although the exercise is wonderful, but the requirements for the cultivator are too high, it must be a non-dual body cultivator whose eyes have changed, and those who meet the requirements do not know the geometry of the world?
There was a commotion in the audience, and after a long time, someone finally raised a sign in the noise.
"Three million and one million, is there a higher bid than this guest host?"
"Three and two million", a little, and then someone bids.
The gears of the auction turned, until one of the guests raised the price to 4.5 million, and the venue fell silent again.
"This host and guest bid five million, does anyone bid higher?" Han Jing's beautiful voice cut through the silence.
Everyone looked in the direction of Han Jing's palm, and in the bidding auction was Wang Baichong, who was sitting in the private room, but at this moment, he had already gotten up and stood in front of the guardrail of the private room, and seemed to be quite interested in this exercise.
If you want to say that in this auction hall, who is most interested in this exercise, it must be Lin Xi, his Yuan body level has reached the ninth level, and he is constantly improving, he is the most likely person to practice this exercise, he has seen the power of the Yuan Emperor level before, although it is only the low level of the Yellow Order, it is from the hands of the Yuan Emperor, it must not be far behind.
Lin Xi's greedy look hidden under the mask at the moment was so hot that his face was red and hot, and his hot eyes were about to burst with golden light.
"This guest offers 5.5 million, is there anything higher than 5.5 million"
In the private room opposite Wang Baichong, an unmasked man in white raised the card in his hand and raised the price to 5.5 million at one time.
The man was dressed in a white engraved beast robe, with a white jade belt around his waist, a white jade hairpin and a gold silk crown in his hair, a crown scarf and green silk hanging shoulders, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a high nose and thin lips, a delicate face, neat and flawless clothes and hair accessories all over his body, holding a feather fan, and his expression was indifferent.
"Five and a half million, for the first time"
Han Jing waved the delicate hammer in her hand, slowly delaying the time, looking at Wang Baichong's private room, expecting him to bid again.
"Six million", Wang Baichong glared at the man in white in the private room opposite viciously, and bid again.
"The guest here bids six ......"
"Six and a half million, this guest has increased the price to six and a half million, is there anything higher than this", before Han Jing finished speaking, the man in white raised his card again and shouted the price, directly overshadowing Wang Baichong's offer.
"Seven Million ......"
"Eight Million ......"
The price of the Xuanmu Gong scroll has soared all the way, and the guests of the two private rooms have come and gone, so it is not lively, this auction has attracted even the audience who came to participate in the auction to be frightened, and the venue emitted bursts of screams and cheers.
After a while, the bidding price had reached 16 million, Wang Baichong's face was extremely ugly, and the haze in the strange humming was even worse, and the man in white rubbed the ring, as if he had bid to the limit of what he could bear.
"Eighteen million", Wang Baichong shouted in a strange voice, with a chill in his voice, which spread throughout the venue, increasing the price by two million at a time.
The venue fell silent again.
"Eighteen million, for the first time"
"Eighteen million, the second time"
"Eighteen million, the third time, the transaction, please pay the money in the background of the guest, verify the lot", the final word, Han Jing said softly, and the applause in the audience thundered.
In the past, when Wang Baichong took pictures of the lots, he arranged for Ai Pang to go to the payment and acceptance, but this time he went there himself, and when he walked out of the private room, his eyes drifted in the direction of Lin Xi and the man in white, and his eyes were full of cold killing intent.
Since the last lot was sold, the semi-annual large-scale auction of Han Shuangcheng has ended, and they have left their seats, although Han Shuangcheng arranged a song and dance party in the auction hall after the meeting, but few people stopped to watch.
"Brother Lin, do you know why I stopped you from bidding for the 'One Rhino Finger' exercise just now?", Han Xiang'er asked.
The two walked out of the auction hall and walked side by side on the street, when it was late at night and the street was lit with sporadic business lights.
"Oh, hehe, didn't you say that you want me to have a better set of exercises?", Lin Xi stopped, rubbed his hands and said with an embarrassed smile.
"Look at your urgency, take it, of course there will be what I promised you", Han Xiang'er made a move with one hand, and a scroll of golden cloth appeared in Han Xiang'er's hand, and Han Xiang'er handed it to Lin Xi.
"The 'One Rhino Finger' exercise is not perfect, what I gave you is the real 'One Rhino Finger' Exercise Scroll, and what I took to auction was only one of the styles, and it was slightly modified", Han Xiang'er said, moved the lotus step lightly, and walked forward.
Lin Xi was not polite, took the scroll and looked at it for a while, and then received the precept, what he needed most now was the exercises.
"There are three styles of this set of exercises, for the practice of the exercises, Han Shuangcheng is very strict, the captain of the guard can only learn the first style, the thirty-four pass generals, can learn the first two styles, excellent children in the clan, qualified to learn the whole", Han Xiang'er Jiao Sheng explained.
"Then wouldn't I be involved in you, this exercise is too important to your family, I can't ask for it, if it is discovered by your father or other elders, ......", Lin Xi held the scroll in his hand, wanting to return it, but he didn't finish speaking.
Han Xiang'er bit her red lip lightly, and glared at him fiercely in the face of Lin Xi, her eyes were delicate.
"Don't worry, my father knows, at most he will scold me a few words, but it is very important to you, I will teach Brother Lin, Brother Lin will definitely not spread it, and it will be fine if it is not passed on", Han Xiang'er spread her hands and said coquettishly.
"That's natural, your family's important secret, I definitely won't leak it," Lin Xi said sincerely.
The two walked side by side towards the City Lord's Mansion, and the lights on the side of the road reflected the figures of the two.
People to people, shadows to shadows, two by two.
