The auction on the third floor of the Chamber of Commerce is still going on.
After what happened just now, instead of being frightened, these wealthy businessmen began to burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm because of the appearance of the dagger.
It is said that when the god of death buries himself, he must carry many of his treasures with him so that he can use them after he is resurrected.
That dagger is the best illustration. As for the danger of opening the coffin, it doesn't matter. They can just let the servants do it instead.
Two coffins in succession fetched high prices at auction.
From the beginning to the end, Xu Tong did not make a move, staring at the two coffins in front of him. With the help of the Life Eye Qimen, although he could see the extraordinaryness of these two coffins, he could see that the auras of these two coffins were not the same.
Not strong.
So he did not participate in the auction, but wanted to wait for the results to confirm his conjecture.
Sure enough, when the two coffins were opened one after another, everyone was disappointed.
When the first coffin was opened, it was empty.
There was nothing in the coffin except a handful of dust.
King Linghuo could only express deep regret for this result. After all, these coffins were buried under the underworld, and it was common for something to happen in the process.
The situation of the second coffin was slightly better. When the coffin was opened, there was a rotting corpse inside, with a large knife tightly clutched in the corpse's hand.
This discovery made everyone excited, but when the slave took the big knife out of the coffin, the originally bright silver blade rusted at a speed visible to the naked eye, but in an instant it completely rotted and turned into a pile of waste.
Copper and rotten iron.
Now someone quit and spent dozens of money, only to end up with scrap metal like this.
"This is a scam! They are all liars!"
The wealthy businessman who bought the third coffin held up the rotten sword in his hand, pointed at the Spirit Fire King and screamed.
No wonder he was so excited. Dozens of banknotes were not a small sum of money. Even if they were private banknotes, they were almost half of his net worth.
I wanted to take a big gamble, but I didn't expect to lose so completely.
"These coffins are full of variables. If I knew what was inside in advance, how could it be your turn to buy them? If you can afford it, play with it. If you can't afford it...just get out!"
King Linghuo doesn't have a good temper, and this wealthy businessman doesn't have the background of Zhou Mu and others.
I saw the big catfish's two pairs of small eyes gleaming fiercely. It glared at the wealthy businessman fiercely, raised its hand and asked someone to throw the wealthy businessman out.
No one will speak for this fool. As the Spiritual Fire King said, if it is really possible to know in advance what is in the coffin through other means, where will it be their turn to auction it here.
Soon the third coffin was brought up.
This coffin is exactly the one carved out of stone that Xu Tong noticed when he went upstairs.
There is something strange about this coffin inside and out.
There are strange textures carved around it, and at first glance it looks rigid, like a work of practice carved by a fledgling stonemason.
But after looking at it for a long time, I felt that this coffin gave people a very strange feeling, as if the stiff lines and strange contours were deliberately done, making people feel more and more deeply as they looked at it.
The feeling of being trapped.
The three human faces on the coffin board give people a creepy illusion, as if the coffin is alive and is still staring at them.
In fact, this coffin has been here for a long time and was once put up for auction as a commodity, but no one can tell for sure.
There are even rumors that Shen Tu once visited in person, but just took one look at the coffin, then turned around and left, saying that he couldn't understand it clearly.
This shows how dangerous this coffin is.
Xu Tong tried to look at it with his Life Eye Qi Men, but he couldn't see anything. There seemed to be a mysterious power on the coffin that prevented him from peeking through it with his Life Eye Qi Men.
Seeing that the Life Eye Qimen was ineffective, Xu Tong tried to use the Divine Eye again, but the result still didn't work.
“Still can’t see anything??”
Neither Shenmu Tong nor Mingyan Qimen were able to observe the strangeness of this coffin. This made Xu Tong feel like he had no idea what to do. He thought to himself: "Is there some kind of forbidden formation?"
But then I thought about it and felt that something was wrong. If it really existed, my Life Eye Qimen would definitely be able to see the clues.
At this time, Xu Tong suddenly thought of the dagger in the first coffin. His mind moved and he tried to test it with Yan Shu.
I saw him closing his eyes, silently kneading the secrets with his fingers, and using the Soul-Searching and Bone-Searching Technique. A ray of spiritual light flickered on his fingertips, creating ripples in his mind as it headed towards the coffin.
"Kakakaka..."
Suddenly, a strange and strange sound came from the coffin, and a strange pattern was woven into Xu Tong's mind.
"It's really Yanshu!"
This discovery shocked Xu Tong's heart. These strange graphics in his mind were cleverly spliced together to form a very ancient rune.
Maybe this is the key to open the coffin.
This discovery made Xu Tong's eyes suddenly open, and he had already concluded in his heart that this coffin must be closely related to Yan Shu.
"The origin of this coffin is very mysterious. Two ferocious beasts under the underworld fought and smashed an island, which exposed the coffin. Otherwise, this coffin must have been hidden for a long time."
King Linghuo couldn't help but sigh when he talked about the origin of this coffin.
Huangquan is like boundless water. Although its name is a spring, its destination is a sea of Huangquan with no end in sight.
There are countless ferocious beasts hidden below, some of which are so terrifying that even the emperor would have a headache.
For example, the giant turtle called Xuantong Beast has existed for who knows how long. It is so big that it can trigger a terrifying tsunami if it turns over.
There is also a strange fish called the Huang Whale, which roams the underworld and has almost no natural enemies. Unfortunately, these two guys seem to dislike each other, and they started fighting once they met.
And this coffin was forcibly squeezed out of the underworld during the collision between the two. Otherwise, it would be difficult for anyone to find this coffin.
Even so, it took an unknown amount of manpower and material resources to salvage the coffin.
If the market hadn't been so bad this year, I wouldn't have given away this coffin.
"The price starts from 10 ghost notes, and the price starts from 20 private notes!"
King Linghuo announced a low price. The price was not unusually high, but as soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately made a bid.
"20 real notes!"
Everyone was surprised and turned around to see that the bidder was the old woman whom Zhou Mu and others called Grandma Meng.
Now everyone was shocked. Some people wanted to bid for a chance, but knowing the identity of the old woman, they didn't dare to bid for a while.
King Linghuo's long beard twitched slightly, cursing his bad luck in his heart.
I could only yell twice tentatively.
"30!"
At this moment, someone suddenly broke the silence, which cheered up everyone's spirits. They followed the sound one after another, wanting to see who it was that didn't know whether to live or die.
As a result, when I turned around, I saw Xu Tong standing up and raising his hand: "30 real banknotes!"
Seeing Xu Tong, King Linghuo was so excited that his long beard was waving wildly, thinking: "This big dog finally takes action!"
"Boy, are you looking for death?"
When Zhou Mu and others saw someone daring to fight with Grandma Meng, they immediately showed their ferocity.
It's a pity that Xu Tong is not one of those businessmen, and he is not afraid of Zhou Mu and others. He raised his head and looked at the Linghuo King: "You can't take care of these vicious dogs with their teeth and claws."
"hiss!!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone gasped.
Even the Spiritual Fire King was shocked for a moment.
Zhou Mu and others were stunned for a few seconds, unable to believe their ears.
Was he scolded by someone, or was he called a vicious dog in public?
This is something that has not happened for many years. In the vast underworld, they have always scolded others, but no one dares to scold themselves.
This is quite incredible.
"Kill him!"
Zhou Mu immediately called out his long sword and prepared to take action.
Fortunately, at this time, the Spiritual Fire King finally came to his senses, and with a flick of his long beard, he actually fired a bright red light in front of Zhou Mu and others, blocking Zhou Mu and others back.
"Young masters, please stop messing around. This is Taocheng, not Fengdu. If you continue to cause trouble, please leave!"
King Linghuo is already dissatisfied with them. If they are allowed to fight again at this time, the Chamber of Commerce will no longer be able to continue running today.
Zhou Mu and his brothers had never suffered such a loss before. Just when they were about to get angry, they heard a soft cough behind them.
When I turned around, I saw it was Grandma Meng.
Zhou Mu's brothers seemed to be very afraid of this Grandma Meng, so when they saw this, they immediately did not dare to show off anymore and obediently stepped aside, just staring at Xu Tong with ferocious eyes.
I wish I could cut Xu Tong into eight pieces and cut his body into thousands of pieces.
Xu Tong didn't care about their looks. They had a grudge in the first place. How could he endure it for a while and be able to calm down the situation?
Xu Tong's attitude towards his enemies has always been that if he can step on both enemies, he will never step on just one.
Old Mrs. Meng didn't say anything to Zhou Mu and others, she just stretched out her hand: "40 genuine notes!"
This price is not low. Forty pieces of underworld money can definitely be regarded as a windfall for a wealthy party in the underworld.
Many people signaled Xu Tong to stop arguing, as if he continued to argue, he would really offend others.
Unfortunately, Xu Tong ignored these kind looks and continued to bid, this time calling the price directly to the number of 60.
It's not that he insists on seeking death. He knows that the other party may be Po Meng from the underworld, but he has a reason to fight. There seems to be traces of Yanshu in this coffin, and it is likely that there is an inheritance of Yanshu. This is very important to him.
It is so important, how can you give it up to others?
As for the identity of the other party...
I have basically offended everyone in Hades this time. Do you still care about this one??
Sure enough, even Mrs. Meng looked confused at the number sixty.
Not everyone can get this money.
Even Mrs. Meng couldn't afford so much cash at the moment, otherwise why would she be a bad person and raise the price first?
“Who is this person, who can produce so much money??”
Everyone began to question, such a large sum of money was not a small amount, and not everyone could easily come up with it.
When Zhou Mu and others saw this, they were about to get angry, but they were stopped by Mrs. Meng. The old lady looked at Xu Tong meaningfully: "Your Excellency has amazing financial resources, and I am ashamed of myself. But this coffin, I'm afraid,
It cannot be opened by just a few slaves."
This coffin is completely different from other coffins. It is integrated and has almost no gaps.
It is obviously impossible to open it with brute force.
When everyone heard this, they immediately understood what Mrs. Meng meant. The coffin could not be opened.
"If the coffin cannot be opened, can it be taken away?"
A businessman asked the Spirit Fire King.
They had only focused on the treasures in the coffin before, and had not noticed the material of the coffin. It was integrated and it would not be easy to open it.
"No, this chamber of commerce can collect it for you, and you can come and open the coffin at any time!"
King Linghuo said, he didn't say this in the beginning because he was worried about this situation happening, so in line with the principle of don't ask, don't tell, he didn't deliberately inform everyone.
These coffins are contraband in the underworld and can only be opened in a formation. Once a god of death is found in them, they must be eliminated as soon as possible. How can anyone take them away.
Zhou Mu and others couldn't help but sneer when these words came out. Even Grandma Meng said that the coffin was difficult to open, so she didn't believe that the other party could open the coffin.
If it cannot be opened, the coffin will be left here until the end of the chamber of commerce. They have many ways to make the person vomit out the coffin and the person.
"Don't worry, our chamber of commerce has an excellent reputation and can guarantee that there will be no accidents with this item."
King Linghuo was afraid that Xu Tong would regret it, so he quickly added.
"Need not!"
However, Xu Tong waved his hand, took out a stack of ghost money and handed it to King Linghuo: "I will open this thing now." After that, he walked to the formation and prepared to open the coffin...
