Staring at the word "Gen" on the edge of the broken map with trembling eyes, Ling Yunfeng took a deep breath in his heart, gritted his teeth and secretly tried to suppress the surging thoughts.
No matter whether there is a way to return to the mainland of China hidden behind this map, there is at least one thing that Ling Yunfeng is absolutely certain about, that is, there is definitely an astonishing secret hidden behind this map.
And the only thing he has to do now is to get that ancient map at any cost!
On the host stage, the beautiful woman still smiled and introduced how mysterious this ancient land was. In short, she just wanted to use all her efforts to increase the value of this ancient map, but unfortunately it seemed to have little effect.
Because under her impatient introduction, some people in the venue began to become impatient, and some people with hot tempers even cursed in a low voice.
Of course, these people just muttered and complained in a low voice, but they didn't dare to curse directly. They didn't have the courage to provoke the Guiyumen auction where the powerful King Wu was sitting. Most people simply closed their eyes and fell asleep.
stand up
Looking around the venue, seeing that there was still not much enthusiastic response, the beautiful woman had no choice but to shake her head, picked up a cup of herbal tea brought by the maid on the side, and took a few sips to moisturize it.
With a dry throat, he smiled bitterly and said: "According to the seller's setting, the base price of this ancient map is 50,000 gold coins. There is no stipulation on the amount of each increase. Now, let the auction begin."
As the beautiful woman's voice fell, the huge three-story auction hall suddenly fell silent. No one was willing to bet on this almost zero chance of winning and spend 50,000 gold coins to buy a piece of crap that they didn't even know was true or false.
Maps, no matter how rich they are, they can't spend it like this, right?
Some people didn't even listen at all when the beautiful woman started to explain the value of this ancient map. Instead, they glanced lustfully at the beautiful woman's exquisite body and high bulging breasts on the stone platform.
With a sense of vulgarity, and at the same time as if I were looking at an idiot, I thought to myself: "Isn't this woman really big-breasted and brainless?"
Ling Yunfeng, under the black robe, stared at the ancient piece of cloth. If it weren't for the shadow of the cloak, anyone might be able to see something from the excited face.
Taking a deep breath, Ling Yunfeng suppressed the agitation in his heart. Reason told him that now was not the best opportunity to bid.
Once his actions arouse other people's doubts and attention, I'm afraid this thing will fall into the hands of others.
At least, Ling Yunfeng knew in his heart that with his current financial resources, it was impossible to compete with those on the second and third floors.
Looking at the silence in the field and the countless mocking glances, the beautiful woman couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and she kept slandering the guys who were evaluating the price.
Although this map is very old, it is only in a broken state after all, and the information displayed on it is not enough for people to discern what is hidden in it.
And in this situation where everything is unknown, even she herself doesn't have much confidence that she can successfully auction it for 50,000 yuan. If there are dozens or hundreds of gold coins, maybe some good people will buy it and study it.
After the silence in the auction room lasted for nearly five minutes, the beautiful woman sighed helplessly, and when she was about to announce that the auction had failed, a voice suddenly made her breathe a sigh of relief.
"Sixty thousand!"
A faint voice broke the silence in the venue. Immediately, countless eyes followed the sound, and finally stopped on a man in black robes near the back row on the first floor. Some comments rang out in the venue.
.
"Is there something wrong with this guy's mind? Spending 60,000 gold coins to buy a piece of crap with no idea of its use?"
"I think he's either mentally ill or he has too much money to spend."
"Keep your voice down, I don't know who this guy is. If he accidentally offends some bad guys, he will be in trouble." An old man reminded.
"Hey! Who am I afraid of in Guiyu City?" A fat man said something to save his face, and then sat quietly, not daring to comment any more.
As Ling Yunfeng's voice sounded, almost everyone's eyes focused on him.
Even on the third floor, there were several powerful and obscure auras peeking towards him. They lightly swept over his body and quickly retreated after seeing nothing special.
"Haha, it seems that this gentleman is brave enough to bet on this. This gentleman bids 60,000 yuan. Is there any higher price?" The beautiful woman looked at Ling Yunfeng, who was wearing a black robe and bamboo hat, smiled slightly, and then glanced around.
asked the entire venue.
Although she knew that it was almost impossible for anyone to bid again, according to the unspoken rules of the profession, she still had to say a few words.
"Seventy thousand!" However, at this moment, a voice that was beyond the expectations of the beautiful woman sounded.
Everyone looked around and saw that the person making the offer was the middle-aged man known as the Master of the Qi Family who had just been robbed of the Lingyuan Bath Fruit by Ling Yunfeng.
Looking at the middle-aged man, everyone's eyes suddenly became a little confused. This guy probably raised the price on purpose again, because this was not the first time he had done this kind of thing today.
Ever since Ling Yunfeng robbed him of the Lingyuan Bath Fruit, this guy would deliberately raise the price in the next auction as long as the former liked and bid for something. Anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that he was obviously taking revenge on the other party.
.
"Damn it!" Seeing this, Ling Yunfeng gave the middle-aged man a cold look and cursed inwardly angrily.
The middle-aged man seemed to have felt Ling Yunfeng's gaze, and he snorted coldly, his eyes full of provocation.
"Eighty thousand." Ling Yunfeng gritted his teeth and shouted.
"Eighty-five thousand!" The middle-aged man continued to raise the price, and everyone in the auction house looked at the two people competing with each other, with gloating eyes flashing with interest.
"One hundred thousand!" Ling Yunfeng took a deep breath and shouted fiercely that no matter what the price was, he would buy this scroll today.
"Huh!" Hearing this price, most of the people present exclaimed. This guy couldn't have been carried away by that middle-aged man. This piece of crap was sold for a high price of 100,000 gold coins. It was really money.
Too much to spend?
Immediately, everyone's attention quickly shifted to Patriarch Qi, wondering whether this guy would continue to increase the price.
Under the eyes of everyone, the middle-aged man stood up slowly, with a proud look on his face, smiled slightly at Ling Yunfeng, and said sarcastically: "Your Excellency, you won, but I have to admire your financial resources and courage, and you are willing to give up.
Spend 100,000 gold coins on this piece of crap."
Thinking about it in his middle age, he was completely incited by Ling Yunfeng's sudden offer of such a high price. He had just considered for a long time whether he should continue to increase the price.
However, he quickly gave up this idea. He just wanted to get back the tone he had just expressed, but he didn't have much financial resources to buy this piece of crap.
If he continues to increase the price, but the other party suddenly gives up, he will have to spend hundreds of thousands of gold coins in vain. If this happens, he may not be able to continue to sit firmly in his position as the head of the family.
"Huh." When Ling Yunfeng heard the middle-aged man's words, instead of being angry, Ling Yunfeng breathed a sigh of relief. Of course he knew that the former was deliberately raising the price.
But for the important secret hidden behind this map, he was determined to get it today. Not to mention spending one hundred thousand gold coins, he was willing to spend millions of gold coins.
"Okay, this gentleman bids 100,000 yuan. Is there anyone else who wants to bid? If not, this ancient picture will belong to this gentleman." The beautiful woman smiled softly, feeling incredible in her heart. She originally thought that there was no bidder.
What a hope that this crappy thing can fetch 100,000 gold coins.
As the beautiful woman finished speaking, the venue fell silent, and no one made any bids at all.
At this time, the beautiful woman had no choice but to pick up the tuning hammer and gently knock it three times on the wooden table on the stage while shouting the price.
But at this time, the beautiful woman's expression was not as helpless as last time, but instead she was a little happy and excited.
With three hammers hitting the wooden table, this ancient map was finally bought by Ling Yunfeng for a price of 100,000 gold coins. Ling Yunfeng's heart dropped slightly from his throat.
The auction continued. In the following time, Ling Yunfeng never encountered anything he liked again. After a few hours, the auction was coming to an end.
At this time, four big men lifted a dark green egg-shaped object over one meter in size onto the stone platform.
I saw a faint green light glowing on the oval object, and a faint energy filled the air.
Seeing this egg-shaped object, many people in the auction house suddenly flashed their eyes and their auras began to fluctuate.
The beautiful woman glanced at the venue with her charming eyes. Seeing everyone's reaction, she smiled with satisfaction and said: "Everyone, after the auction has been going on for so long, it is now the highlight of today. I believe everyone knows the origin of this dome.
Wrong, this is the egg of the fourth-order two-headed devil crocodile.
Everyone can be absolutely assured that this egg has been inspected by the animal trainer at our auction house and has been mated. The cub inside has begun to take shape. As long as it is carefully cultivated, it will hatch in a few months. When it grows up, it will definitely be your best egg.
A sincere bodyguard, and his strength is comparable to that of a strong human martial soul."
"It's really a fourth-level magic beast egg. This is a good thing and its value is not low."
"Of course, if it can be hatched successfully and raised to adulthood, then there will undoubtedly be a strong martial soul next to him, and it will not be an exaggeration to think that he will be the dominant one by then."
"Yes, it is not a problem to hatch this fourth-level monster egg. There is already life inside. But to train it into your own guardian beast, you need to hire a senior animal trainer."
"Damn it, if you had a cub of a fourth-level monster, wouldn't you be willing to hire a senior animal trainer?"
"That's right, haha!" The person who spoke before smiled awkwardly...
