Kong Sang looked around in confusion, and then asked: "Did you hear anyone crying?"
The three of them all looked at Kong Sang in surprise: "Are you hallucinating something?"
Kong Sang frowned: "That's not right... there was indeed crying just now, and there was also the sound of waves..."
Qian Pianpian kept an eye on it:
"After you become a watcher, you will often perceive some special things. If you think you are not hearing hallucinations...have you felt anything else besides crying?"

Kong Sang shook his head: "It is different from the hallucinations and auditory hallucinations that I have come across before. There is no anger, and there are no hallucinations. I just heard the sound of crying. As for the voice... I can't tell whether it is a male or a female."
"..." Qian Pianpian was speechless: "I think you are probably hallucinating."
At this moment, in the silent auditorium, a sound of footsteps caught everyone's attention.
Taking a closer look, he saw a man wearing a black tuxedo. The man looked to be about forty years old. He was slightly fatter and had darker skin, but his face was very kind and he didn't have the philistine feeling of a traditional businessman.
The man walked onto the stage, bowed slightly, then turned on the microphone and said with a smile:
"Everyone, it is a great honor to host today's auction!"
"I am the initiator and host of this auction. My name is Wang Deming. I am a native of Kyushu and my ancestral home is Fujian. Anyone who is familiar with me knows that I am also a businessman traveling in Asia."
“I often dump out some gadgets.”
For a moment, the slightly relaxed opening made some wealthy businessmen in Kyushu burst into laughter.
Kong Sang looked at the three of them: "Is this Wang Deming... very famous?"
Kou Kou Wu Lu彡⑦④彡LU⑦五
Qian Pianpian nodded: "Let's put it this way, in this circle of gods and ghosts, Wang Deming's business is considered to be very large in Kyushu. Moreover, he can always find some very rare old objects."
"The most peculiar thing is that even if he informed everyone about the location where he bought these things, when everyone went to look for them, they would basically get nothing."
"Over time, he became rich.",
At this time, Wang Deming on the stage continued to explain:
"Dear guests, the price tag is on everyone's right. Our auction items this time include twenty items in total. I believe everyone has seen the specific content from the invitation."
"However, due to some process problems, we have temporarily changed some of the auction items. But don't worry, we will introduce the use of the changed items in detail."
"At the same time, we will auction the three items with question marks separately the next day. Therefore, please allow me to keep them secret for now."
"In this auction, each bid must not be less than fifty thousand."
"Now, I announce that the auction has officially begun!"
"Crack!"

The auction hammer knocked lightly, and the entire auditorium suddenly fell silent.
Kong Sang looked at Wang Deming's face. She didn't know why, but under the candlelight, she always felt that there was an unspeakable weirdness in his eyes.
"So, let's show the first lot!"
Soon, the staff pushed a small cart to the auction table.
When the white silk cloth was lifted up, what came into view was a square box made of wood.
The square box was only about the size of a palm. As Wang Deming put on his gloves and opened the box, what came into view was a cuboid that looked like grease.
At a cursory glance, the oil is milky white, looks very delicate, and has a faint smell.
All the guests suddenly started whispering.
Obviously, the first auction item was different from what was on the invitation.
Wang Deming smiled "hehe":

"Then, let's start today's auction. The first item is the legendary mermaid grease."
After saying this, most people's first impression was that they didn't believe it.
Although it is no secret to the wealthy people present that the matter of strange power and chaos is no longer a secret. But the mermaid is still a legendary creature after all. It can be said that no one has ever seen this legendary creature.
In addition, although this fat looks different from ordinary butter and ghee, it is not mermaid fat, so no one can say for sure.
At the VIP table, Kong Sang frowned:
"Mermaid grease? Could it be... a shark?"
Qian Pianpian also showed a hint of hesitation:
"I'm not sure. This kind of thing is too rare. I've never seen it before."
At this time, Wang Deming began to explain calmly:
"Let me first explain to you what this mermaid oil is. Everyone knows that in our Kyushu, there is a saying of the country of Guixu. This country of Guixu is hidden deep in the sea."
"According to legend, only two kinds of creatures can enter and live in the Kingdom of Guixu. The first one is the person who drowned in the sea."
"The second type is the legendary shark. Mermaids are men and women, and the tears they shed can be condensed into pearls."
"Before they meet the love of their lives, they have no gender, just like the 'formless body' that the Buddha said."
"After capturing the mermaids, their bodies are cut open, and special methods are used to condense the oil in their bodies. After condensation, it is mermaid oil!"
As soon as this statement came out, the discussion among the guests became even louder. It was obvious that they were not able to adapt to this explanation.
Most people who are in the business of using strange powers to mess with gods have various taboos. This kind of thing that is obviously filled with resentment has made many people who wanted to participate in the auction hesitate for a while.
Wang Deming seemed to have anticipated everyone's reaction, and smiled slowly:
"Don't worry, I haven't finished yet."
"This mermaid grease was actually very useful in ancient Kyushu. According to some unofficial historical records, the candles used in the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang were mermaid candles. Of course, in history books, this kind of candle is called the longevity candle, also known as the longevity candle.
Thousand-year candle!"
"As the name suggests, this kind of candle made of mermaid fat can burn for thousands of years!"
Kou Kou five six three seven four three six seven five
"Have you ever seen the candles on the walls of my Siren? You can take a closer look. These are all mermaid candles!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone looked around in surprise.
Even Kong Sang and others couldn't help but look at the stone pillars.
"This candle..." Kong Sang frowned: "Look, after burning for so long, the height of this candle seems to have not changed, and not even a drop of wax has dripped. This..."
The Chuma Immortal Xiao Cheng seemed to have been prompted by the Great Immortal Nang, and immediately said: "Kong Sang, the Great Immortal told me that these are indeed mermaid candles. And...the production time seems not to be long!"
Kong Sang's pupils narrowed: "Xiao Cheng, how did you see it?"
"The Great Immortal said that only the mermaid candle that has just been made will produce this indescribable and strange fragrance when it burns. As time goes by and the mermaid candle is completely stabilized, the fragrance will disappear." Dema Xian explained.
.
Qian Pianpian frowned: "Whether it's the Kingdom of Guixu or the Sharks, these legendary things..."
"Wait a minute! Did that girl from the Jiuhu family who was on the deck just now say that she was entrusted by someone this time?"
"Did she mention the Kingdom of Guixu!"

In an instant, Kong Sang looked at Jiu Huyue opposite.
But she saw Jiuhuyue sitting there, not checking the situation of Mermaid Zhu. Seeing Kongsang's eyes glide over, she suddenly showed a sweet smile.
Kong Sang couldn't help but said: "Could it be that... the boss insisted on letting me get on this ship because of this shark incident?"
"When he was in the antique shop, he once said that among the divinities of Fengdu and Guixu, Fengdu has lost its divinity. At that time, he did not mention Guixu."
Chumaxian said with a smile: "Maybe, that was not a slip of the tongue, but a reminder."
Kong Sang suddenly fell silent.
The four of them looked at each other, did not ask questions, and sat back to their seats.
At this time, the guests on the first floor also sat back one after another. They all saw clearly that there was no mechanism on the candle, and the feel and burning condition were indeed completely different from ordinary candles.
Seeing that the fire was almost done, Wang Deming continued:
"Of course, you must be wondering, even if this mermaid oil is genuine, what effect can it have?"

"After all, if it is just used as a candle, it is not practical at all."
"Actually, mermaid oil is an excellent medicinal material! Everyone must have heard the story that eating mermaid meat can make you immortal."
"In fact, the source of this allusion lies in the special longevity oil in the shark's body."
"Although this oil cannot be said to be completely immortal after being taken in a special way, it is completely possible to extend one's life, live for an extra hundred years, and even maintain a youthful appearance until the day of death."
As soon as this statement came out, the eyes of many rich people began to look crazy!
These people, in their respective countries, want money and rights.
Even for the sake of my own health, I do not eat the foods that are circulated in the market with various additives, but also build my own farms and vegetable gardens, in order to fundamentally extend my life.
They are so afraid of death!
But now, this small piece of mermaid grease can do this, which naturally perfectly hits the ultimate desire deep in the hearts of these people!
Even if you can live one more day, no matter how much you spend, it is worth it!

Wang Deming smiled: "Of course, in order to make you believe that I am not lying. We can cut out some as a trial product first."
After saying that, Wang Deming asked the staff to prepare the knives and forks, and then cut off almost half the size of a fingernail on each small plate.
After a while, a small piece of mermaid grease was placed in front of everyone.
The same was true in front of Kong Sang and others.
"Don't worry, everyone, we have also studied this thing ourselves. If there is really any problem, my business and reputation will be completely lost, right?" As he said this, Wang Deming took a small bite himself.
Seeing that the host himself had eaten, everyone no longer hesitated and ate the fat on their plates one after another.
"Do we... want to eat?" Qian Pianpian immediately looked at Kong Sang.
Zhao Yuecheng frowned: "If this is really the grease on the shark's body, it does have such an effect."
Kong Sang looked at it for a moment, but then shook his head: "Forget it, don't move. Regardless of whether this thing is real or not, the sharks are almost indistinguishable from humans in mythological records, and they are all considered 'advanced creatures'.
"
"When I think about us eating each other's body fat, I always feel... it's not acceptable."

Chumaxian said with a smile: "I also agree not to eat it. Mangxian said that eating this thing may be good for the body, but it will also have some interesting side effects."
Kong Sang looked at the other party with a trace of doubt.
On Chumaxian's body, the phantom of the Python Master's head suddenly appeared.
At this time, the majestic copper bell-like eyes stared at the four people: "Eternal life comes with a price. Before the Qin Dynasty, some people discovered that sharks could live forever, but why... no emperors have lived forever?"
With just this sentence, everyone made up their mind not to touch it.
At this time, those people who had eaten mermaid oil on the first floor showed strange expressions. They raised their heads one after another, and their expressions seemed to be very satisfied and intoxicated.
It looked as if he had eaten a fine nectar.
Suddenly, a cool and damp breath came rushing in.
Kong Sang shuddered subconsciously and looked around, but there was nothing there. However, when he set his sights on the guests again, he felt that there was an indescribable and strange aura about them.
And, the cry sounded again. This time, Kong Sang heard it more clearly.

There was deep unwillingness and resentment in the crying, as well as unspeakable anxiety and sadness.
