Chapter 2043: Foxes Listening to Sutras in Front of the Buddha
Seven or eight maids came up from below carrying a huge jade box. Gananxing opened the jade box and took out a scroll.
This scroll was extremely long, a full foot long. Then he waved his hand, and the scroll flew into the air and slowly opened.
After the scroll was unfolded, it was very large, six or seven feet long and one foot wide.
In the middle of the scroll, under the beautifully crafted cliff, a Buddha is sitting cross-legged, with a smile on his lips, like a smile holding a flower.
Behind the cliff, there is a stretch of golden mountains with countless temples on them, which look glorious and powerful.
The camel's body is as high as the sky and the earth, and in front of the Buddha are a group of little foxes.
Some of these little foxes are cyan and some are white. They don't have the chaotic, murderous, vicious aura of monsters, but they are all full of ethereal meaning and extremely smart.
Their bodies seemed to be shining with golden light, and their faces were full of piety. They were raising their heads as if they were listening to something.
This is a shocking scene: a picture of foxes listening to the sutra in front of the Buddha!
After everyone saw the pattern in the scroll, they were all stunned: "What does this mean? A group of foxes listening to the sutra in front of the Buddha?"
"Then what does this painting mean?"
Suddenly, many people quietly rose up one by one and took a peek at the scroll, and Chen Feng was no exception.
However, everyone was disappointed.
Chen Feng knew why, because Chen Feng felt that after his Qi touched it, there was nothing surprising at all. He felt that this was an ordinary picture.
Even if you close your eyes and perceive it again, it is still just a painting, without anything special.
This is different from the previous auctions. All the previous auctions gave people a very vast and majestic feeling.
So the next moment, there was a sound of ridicule in the auction hall: "Master, we don't bring such a fool?"
"That's right, eldest son, this painting is just an ordinary painting. There is nothing special about it. I even doubt whether this painting was forged by later generations. It has no real effect at all."
"Even if this painting were thrown into a small auction house in a first-class city, I'm afraid no one would be willing to buy it."
"That's right." Everyone nodded: "If you buy this, you can only hang it at home as a decoration."
Jiananxing just smiled and said nothing, but Chen Feng felt a deep throbbing in his heart at this moment.
It turned out that just when his momentum was about to retract, he suddenly felt a very familiar aura coming from the scroll.
He couldn't explain it clearly, but it made Chen Feng's skin crawl instantly. There was a big throbbing in his heart, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble.
Chen Feng immediately realized that this painting was definitely not that simple!
However, he did not show any other emotions, but quietly observed the reactions of the people around him.
What made Chen Feng very gratified was that no one around him showed any abnormality, which meant that they didn't find any problems.
Jiananxing smiled and said: "Okay, the auction has begun. The starting price is five hundred black yellow stones."
"Bah! Five hundred pieces of Xuanhuang stone? Who will buy it?"
"That's right, even though this man is rich, he can't waste it like this!" Everyone sneered.
Chen Feng was not in a hurry to make a bid, lest anyone would find out.
After waiting for a while, no one spoke. Gananxing shook his head, feeling that this painting was probably going to be rejected.
But he didn't have much hope. This painting was just to make up the numbers, and they didn't find anything strange about it.
He raised the hammer in his hand and was about to announce that the painting had failed to be auctioned. Suddenly, a lazy voice sounded:
"Although there is nothing special about this painting, I quite like it when I see it."
"I had a little fox at home before, which was very similar to the green fox in this painting. Unfortunately, I don't know where it went. Maybe it went back to the mountains again."
"I have always missed her, so I bought this painting as a souvenir!"
The person who spoke was none other than Chen Feng.
He said calmly: "Five hundred and one black yellow stones!"
Many people looked at Chen Fengfeng, shook their heads and sighed: "I don't know which family this prodigal son comes from!"
"Yes, the Xuanhuang Stone Master paid five hundred yuan just to buy such a useless picture scroll. It's really..."
"You can tell by this voice, it's probably a young boy who was brought out by the elders in the family to practice!"
They all mocked Chen Feng's choice, but no one doubted Chen Feng's reason. After all, the reason Chen Feng gave was quite credible.
"Okay, there is a distinguished guest who bids five hundred and one fast black yellow stones." Jiananxing smiled and said, "Is there anyone else who wants to bid?"
No one spoke.
On the other side, a young man seemed to want to open his mouth, but was stopped by the person next to him.
Gananxing was also eager to sell, so he quickly knocked the hammer three times and said loudly: "Okay, this painting will belong to this young master."
On the surface, Chen Feng seemed to be understatement, and even his breath did not fluctuate, but in fact, he was extremely nervous.
Because as long as someone takes action, as long as there are extraneous problems, it is very likely that this painting will not belong to him.
As soon as he heard that the painting belonged to him, Chen Feng's whole body softened and he almost collapsed on the chair.
He cared so much about this painting that his heart almost jumped out of excitement!
However, Chen Feng did not see the moment when Nagananxing announced that the scroll had been photographed by Chen Feng.
Among the little foxes on the scroll, one with green fur, as clear and gorgeous as sapphire, actually turned around, glanced at him slyly, and winked.
The auction here is very simple and crude. You give Xuanhuang Stone on the spot, and then hand over the lot to the auctioneer on the spot.
Chen Feng took out five hundred and one yuan of black yellow stone and got this painting. He didn't even look at it and stuffed it directly into the golden dragon ring.
Only then did Chen Feng feel that his heart had calmed down.
There were constant sounds of ridicule around him, but Chen Feng felt secretly happy in his heart.
A smile quietly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You people are still mocking me. You have no idea how precious this painting is!"
Next, two more lots passed by, and when the twenty-eighth lot was taken away, the atmosphere in the Shenying Auction House suddenly became quiet.
Everyone stopped talking, and their voices disappeared. Everyone's eyes just focused on the auction table, and they all breathed lightly, as if they were expecting something.
