348. Chapter 348 The results of the auction
A simple sentence made Xia Huang's whole body feel like he was struck by thunder!
An unprecedented sense of fear suddenly enveloped Xia Huang's body! Cold sweat soaked his back in an instant!
At this moment, he suddenly woke up.
The "security" I think is based on the word "morality"! It is based on the fact that those strong men who have the ability to kill him and seize the sword will rely on their status and will not take action against him! If those strong men
If a person doesn't care about the difference in status from the beginning, and doesn't care about the eyes of the world from the beginning, then his current situation is no different from a child who has entered a den of thieves! And he is also a child with gold in his hand!
"Then... then why has no one done anything to me for so long?" Xia Huang was grateful to Xiao Tianqing for reminding him, but also raised his own question.
"Because you are now close to the Sikong family, if that little boy Sikong Shaohao finally wins the inheritance rights of the Sikong family, and you choose to stay in the Sikong family, then they will have to think twice before doing anything to you.
.What they are afraid of is not you, but the strength of the Sikong family!"
"senior……"
"how?"
"We are just meeting for the first time, why do you have to remind me so much?" This is the last and biggest question in Xia Huang's mind.
"Well..." Xiao Tianqing suddenly narrowed his eyes, and his thoughts seemed to drift into the far distance, "There is no special reason. It happened a long, long, long time ago, so long that I almost forgot how many years ago it was...
…I owe you, the Patriarch of Zhuge, a favor, and I have never had the chance to repay it. Now, I would like to remind you, a junior disciple of Zhuge, to do you a small favor, and consider it as repaying his favor back then..."
Do you owe a favor to the founder of Zhuge?
Xia Huang's expression changed again!
This Xiao Tianqing, Qinglao, one of the founding fathers of Jiubaotang, can actually be related to the founder of Zhuge?! How many years has he lived?!
Xia Huang gradually began to feel that the person sitting next to him was not a person, but an out-and-out old monster.
Just when Xia Huang was about to say something more, a huge black fruit was already carried up on the auction stage by his assistant.
It was the "Poison of Destiny" that Xia Huang auctioned!
Even Xiao Tianqing, the other person on the auction stage, had not had time to start the introduction. There were exclamations one after another in the auction room. Obviously, there were many people present who were aware of the goods!
"It seems that many of the guests present seem to know this fruit. That's right! This is the famous Poison of Destiny! It is one of the seven fruits of Qiliuhua Golden Grass, and it is also the most precious of the seven fruits!
Its characteristics instantly enhance the user's cultivation talent hundreds or thousands of times. Even a rabbit can improve his cultivation ability within a month after taking the poison of destiny.
Over time, it has become a terrifying beast that everyone is afraid of and ghosts are worried about! Of course, since it is called 'poison', this fruit also has its side effects. After taking the poison of fate, the user only has a hundred days left to live at most!
After a hundred days, it will definitely be fatal! However, I believe that those who really need it will understand its value, right?" Xiao Tianqing on the auction stage smiled mysteriously.
There was a sudden silence in the auction!
The name Poison of Destiny is familiar to everyone present, but most people don't know what it looks like. When they hear this name, Xiao Tianqing actually doesn't need to introduce it to them.
As Xiao Tianqing said, this fruit is like a double-edged sword, with equally powerful effects and side effects. For most people, this thing is not as good as an ordinary stone, but for those who really need it
Said, the value of this thing simply surpasses everything in this world!
Xiao Tianqing seemed to be very satisfied with everyone's silent performance, and nodded slightly: "Now, the auction of the Poison of Destiny begins! The starting price is one million low-grade spiritual stones! Each bidding will increase the price by 500,000 low-grade spiritual stones! Please bid!"
Almost as soon as Xiao Tianqing finished speaking, an excited figure showed his bidding card in the northeast corner of the auction house!
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on him! There was deep fear hidden in most of their eyes.
Obviously, buying something like Poison of Destiny, whether for yourself or for others, will never do anything good. As for buying it for collection...guests at ordinary seats will have money to spend.
One million low-grade spiritual stones to buy a decoration?
With the first person, there will be a second person to participate in the auction.
Soon, the second person also raised his bidding card!
Without the third one, the two of them fought back and forth for a long time, and the price quickly climbed from one million low-grade spiritual stones to four million low-grade spiritual stones!
Everyone else watched the two men competing in silence, not even daring to make a sound, let alone open their mouths to discuss it.
No one wants to accidentally say something that they shouldn't have said, and unfortunately become the target of revenge within a hundred days of the life of the person who finally got the poison of fate. Those who only have a hundred days of life left, kill people, and
Just like eating and drinking, there is no psychological burden and no thought of the consequences.
Just as everyone was waiting for the two of them to shout out the high price of 4.5 million low-grade spiritual stones, the red light representing the first VIP room's bid suddenly lit up!
Moreover, this light flashed rapidly ten times in a row!
The intervention of the first distinguished guest made the two people who were originally arguing with each other fall silent at the same time, and their faces were filled with deathly ashen.
Although the scene of the first VIP room voluntarily retreating from the competition in the seventh VIP room not long ago is still vivid in their minds, they both know in their hearts that with their wealth, it is impossible to compete with the people in the VIP room.
More importantly, the red light representing the first VIP room actually flashed ten times in a row!
What does this mean?!
On behalf of the first VIP room, the price was increased ten times in a row! The auction price was instantly raised to nine million low-grade spiritual stones! The price was increased ten times in a row. It looked like the people in the first VIP room were interested in this "poison of fate".
must!
What they didn't know was that at this moment, the expression of the young prince in the first VIP room was not much better than the two of them.
The young prince stood there stupidly, looking in disbelief at the jade token that had just been turned around in his hand.
Ever since he found that the jade medal he was bidding on could not be rotated, he had been fighting desperately with the jade medal here, trying to flip it again and again, but no matter how hard he tried, the jade medal still remained motionless. Even in his own mind, the jade medal remained motionless.
Just when I was about to give up, the jade sign actually turned!
Moreover, because he used too much force, the jade medal actually spun a full ten times!
"Turning... it's spinning?! Hahahaha! It's finally spinning!" After a brief moment of astonishment, the young prince burst out laughing ecstatically, "I finally let you turn this damn jade medal! Hey! Tell me!
, what is being auctioned now? I just turned the jade tile, and it should be a bid. What is the price now?"
The guard standing next to the young prince had a strange expression on his face. He stammered out a sentence as if he was constipated: "Reply... to the prince... it's... it's the 'Poison of Destiny'... Your Majesty, you just offered nine million low-grade souls."
Shi, bid for the 'Poison of Destiny'!"
"What is this? 'Poison of Destiny'? Why did I buy this thing?! What's wrong with the auction now? This kind of thing is actually being auctioned! Wait! How much did you just say I bid? Nine million?!
Nine million low-grade spiritual stones?!" The smile on the young prince's face suddenly stiffened.
When he thought that he had to spend nine million low-grade spiritual stones to buy a poisonous fruit that he could not use at all, the young prince felt dizzy and almost couldn't even stand. He stumbled, if he hadn't caught himself in time.
The armrest of the chair made him fall down.
However, he held on, and this time he accidentally touched the jade sign again.
The red light shines again!
"Nine and a half million low-grade spiritual stones! The guests in the first VIP room bid nine and a half million low-grade spiritual stones to buy this 'Poison of Destiny'!"
Xiao Tianqing's excited voice echoed throughout the auction house!
This excited voice became the last straw that broke the young prince's mind. His vision went dark, and he fainted on the large chair in the first VIP room...
In the seventh VIP room, Xia Huang was stunned by the unexpectedly high price: "He... what is he doing?"
The "he" Xia Huang refers to, of course, refers to the people in the first VIP room.
As the only person who could clearly see everything that happened in the entire auction house, and also the culprit of the entire incident, Xiao Tianqing, who was sitting next to Xia Huang, had a gloating smile on his face: "Why did he pay such a high price... I can only
Speaking of coincidence, everything is a coincidence. This
Isn't this result pretty good for you? Then you will have enough spirit stones to bid for the next auction item, which is the casting material you need. However, I can tell you frankly, that guy
, my current mood is no different from death..."
Xia Huang instinctively felt that Xiao Tianqing must be hiding something, but he did not ask further questions and changed the subject: "With your identity and strength, senior, why would you still come to host such an auction?"
"Let's add a little fun to this boring life. When you have cultivation like me, you will naturally understand." As he said this, Xiao Tianqing couldn't help but look at Xia Huang more, and then quickly denied his own statement.
, "Wait, I take back what I just said. Based on my first impression of your kid, you
You are probably a typical cultivation madman. Even if you have my level of cultivation, you probably won’t find life so boring, because people like you will spend all your boring time on cultivation... Sigh... Monk
There are not many normal people like me left in China. Life is so lonely as snow..."
Hearing this, Xia Huang resisted the urge to roll his eyes. Xiao Tianqing on the auction table had already dropped the hammer for the third time, deciding the final outcome of the Poison of Destiny being sold to the first VIP room for 9.5 million low-grade spiritual stones.
Chapter completed!
