The auction of the Yaowang Ding quickly kicked off. What Li Yundong had originally imagined was that although the Yaowang Ding was an "antique cultural relic" found in Huangshan City, Anhui Province, the auction was held in Soochow City.
In order to hold this grand auction, Tianai Auction House gave up its own company's auction venue and instead set up the auction venue in a five-star hotel in Soochow City. Li Yundong took Su Chan, Ziyuan, Zhou
Qin came to Soochow City again.
Women are a man's best business card. Many times, on certain occasions, the success of a man depends on the kind of woman he has by his side.
In today's China, where the luxury goods market is constantly heating up, an auction held by an auction house is often not just a grand gathering for auction enthusiasts, but sometimes also a place where the rich and powerful spend their money and compete for wealth.
In such a place, beauties are naturally indispensable.
As soon as he arrived at the hotel's entrance, Li Yundong saw various brand-name luxury cars appearing in an endless stream at the hotel's entrance. One after another, luxurious and wealthy businessmen and beauties dressed in gorgeous clothes walked down from them.
These beauties wear jeweled necklaces around their necks and huge gemstone earrings on their ears. They are all rich and enchanting, attracting the attention of many people.
But when Su Chan, Ziyuan and Zhou Qin arrived, everyone's eyes were immediately attracted to the three of them.
Su Chan was wearing a fiery red classical dress. The hem of the skirt was piled on the ground like clouds, like a bright fire cloud. Whenever the little girl moved her steps, it seemed as if a cloud was following her. She had a fur draped over her shoulders.
The waistcoat makes the whole person look noble, enchanting and stunningly beautiful.
Ziyuan is still wearing a rather ordinary and simple snow-white dress, but even though she is dressed so ordinary, it makes people feel as if she is wearing seamless heavenly clothes, and every inch of her clothes seems to come from heaven.
The clouds and the whole person are like a fairy falling into the mortal world from the clouds, with no trace of human fireworks in his body.
Zhou Qin is wearing a purple cheongsam. She is calm and majestic by nature, and she comes from a wealthy family. Her every move exudes an air of superiority, and her beautiful eyes reveal an aura of coldness and arrogance that looks down on all living beings. Only she
When her eyes fell on Li Yundong, her eyes became extremely soft and full of admiration.
As soon as Su Chan, Ziyuan and Zhou Qin appeared, they immediately took away the glory of almost all the beauties in the scene. For a moment, everyone on the scene looked at them with wide eyes, as if they couldn't believe that three such people could appear at the same time.
Stunning beauties with astonishing beauty, Su Chan, Ziyuan and Zhou Qin each have different beauty and temperament, and Chunlan Qiuju is good at their respective roles.
These men looked at Su Chan, Ziyuan and Zhou Qin greedily and enviously, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: What kind of man can be worthy of such a woman?
When they were sighing, they saw Su Chan, Ziyuan and Zhou Qin surrounded by stars who were a little too young. This boy was wearing a hand-sewn dark red Tang suit and a pair of black cloth shoes.
His eyes were soft, and there seemed to be a smile at the corner of his mouth. When he looked around, his expression was indifferent, as if he had seen all the vicissitudes of the world. Although he was not old, he gave people a feeling of youth and maturity, which was surprising.
This boy was Li Yundong. He looked at Su Chan beside him with a smile and said, "Chan'er, do you still remember the first time we came to the hotel?"
Su Chan turned her head to look at him and said with a smile: "Remember, I was so nervous that I didn't know where to put my hands?"
Li Yundong smiled and said with some emotion: "Yes, it feels like many years have passed! But in fact, it has only been less than half a year."
Su Chan quietly pulled Li Yundong's hand, playfully hooked Li Yundong's palm with her fingers, and smiled sweetly at him.
Although Zhou Qin often visited various places in high society, this was her first time to participate in this very special auction. She looked around curiously and couldn't help but sigh: "There are so many people! They are all here to bid.
?”
Ziyuan smiled slightly and said, "There are many acquaintances."
Li Yundong took a look and saw that among these people were many practitioners from the cultivating sects he had seen at the Lotus Picking Conference, including Zhang Kongyun, Zhang Liufang, Zhang Ling, Zou Ping and others from the Zhengyi Sect.
However, this time they were not wearing Taoist robes, but were wearing either crisp suits or satin cheongsams as brilliant as fringes.
Even the informal Zhang Kongyun was wearing a gray Tang suit, playing with a folding ink fan with one hand and amusing himself by looking at the ink paintings on the fan.
Zou Ping and Zhang Ling also saw Li Yundong. They snorted and turned away quickly, showing great hostility.
At this time, Su Chan whispered to Li Yundong: "Yundong, where is the Du Zhenren you made an appointment with? Why hasn't he come yet?"
Li Yundong looked around, and sure enough he didn't see anyone from the Quanzhen Longmen Sect. Instead, he found several practitioners from the Qingcheng Sect glaring at him, as if they wanted to tear themselves into pieces in the next second.
of.
"Why do these guys... act like they have a deep hatred for me?" Li Yundong was secretly wondering, but he didn't take it to heart.
Just as his eyes were searching back and forth, another exclamation soon came from behind him.
Li Yundong looked back and saw a woman wearing a red skirt and black fluttering and a girl with golden eyes and a formal suit walking into the hotel lobby.
These two women are Ao Wushuang and Chrissy. Although she is wearing the same red dress as Su Chan, the dress she wears gives people a sense of maturity and beauty, unlike Su Chan.
Cicada exudes a pure and lovely aura unique to a girl, and the suit on Chrissy perfectly outlines her hot and sexy figure and amazing exquisite curves.
When Li Yundong saw the two of them, he immediately laughed: "Are you here?"
Since Ao Wushuang and Chrissy also invested money in the bidding, Li Yundong specially invited them to come together. However, Chrissy could not fly, so Ao Wushuang flew here alone, while Li Yundong brought them
Following Su Chan, Ziyuan and Zhou Qin took the lead.
Chrissy was obviously not used to this kind of high-altitude flight. Her already very fair skin now looked even paler. Her legs were trembling a little and she forced a smile to Li Yundong and said, "Can I take a plane next time?"
"
Su Chan burst out laughing: "You still want to learn spiritual practice? This is the first time I heard that I can fly but I have to take a plane..."
Chris bit her lip and said no more.
Li Yundong also smiled and helped her out, saying: "Let's go, let's enter the auction house."
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the group arrived at the auction house on the 19th floor. As soon as they entered the venue, Li Yundong saw that there were already many people sitting on the scene, including many disciples of the Buddhist sect.
Compared with some practitioners of the Taoist sect, these great monks are much more generous. Most of them are wearing yellow monk robes, and their bald heads are particularly eye-catching in the crowd.
Zhou Qin took a careful look at the field, and suddenly whispered to Li Yundong: "Master, someone from Shaolin Temple is here too."
Li Yundong asked curiously: "People from Shaolin Temple are also here? Are they also interested in the Medicine King Cauldron? No way?"
Zhou Qin shook his head: "I don't know about this. I don't know if they are here for the Medicine King Cauldron."
Kris, who knows a lot about China, asked curiously: "Shaolin Temple? Is Shaolin Temple also a sect of spiritual practice? Isn't this place for martial arts?"
Zhou Qin laughed and said, "It's hard for me to explain this to you, but Master knows it, so let him tell you."
Li Yundong was also looking around. As he looked, he said: "Shaolin Temple, like Wudang Mountain, is both a martial arts sect and a spiritual sect. Although in martial arts, one belongs to the external sect and the other belongs to the internal sect. But
In the world of spiritual practice, the two practice directions are quite similar, and both belong to the Danwu Sect."
"Danwu Sect?" Chris asked confused.
Li Yundong explained with a smile: "Well, it is a sect that uses elixirs to practice Taoism and elixirs to practice martial arts. They do not have much need or dependence on magic weapons. The main means of fighting are fighting techniques supported by inner elixirs and true essence."
When Zhou Qin heard this, he couldn't help but curiously asked: "Master, if you have a magic weapon and don't use it, but you fight with others in hand-to-hand combat, wouldn't this be a big loss in the battle of magic?"
Li Yundong smiled and shook his head: "That's not necessarily true. Zhang Sanfeng was the great master of the Danwu Sect back then. Have you heard that he ever lost in a fight? The Danwu Sect's fighting skills are extremely fierce and flexible, and they have a unique secret method that can resist spells and magic weapons.
, they cannot be underestimated. If you underestimate them, you will be the one who suffers!"
Zhou Qin said with a worried look: "Then we have another strong opponent in this auction? Shaolin Temple is very rich!"
Ziyuan laughed at this time: "That's not necessarily the case. People may not be here just to steal this Medicine King Cauldron."
Ao Wushuang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "We don't actually have to grab the Medicine King Cauldron, as long as we can ensure that the Medicine King Cauldron is not snatched away by the enemy. If this is not possible, we can cooperate with Du from the Quanzhen Longmen Sect.
Fei, we just need to confuse the bidder's mood and judgment and let Du Fei ambush in secret."
Li Yundong nodded and smiled: "Senior Ao Wushuang is absolutely right."
A group of them were sitting in a corner of the auction house and talking quietly. At this time, there were gradually more people in the auction house, and many people sat down in their seats one after another.
Li Yundong and Ziyuan kept staring at the bidders who came in, secretly calculating the practice sects present. When the thirteenth practice sect appeared, Du Fei from the Quanzhen Dragon Sect finally appeared with Wei Qing.
middle.
Du Fei looked around at the door for a week. After his eyes met with Li Yundong's, an imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Then he took Wei Qing and sat calmly in another corner with him.
Li Yundong was far away.
When Li Yundong and others saw Du Fei's appearance, they all breathed a sigh of relief. The little girl patted her chest and said very charmingly: "Fortunately, Mr. Du didn't let us go!"
Li Yundong smiled and was about to speak, but when he glanced at the door inadvertently, he was surprised to see Shen Wancai also appearing at the scene!
Li Yundong was surprised: "Shen Wancai? He's here too?"
His exclamation made Ziyuan, Zhou Qin, Su Chan, Ao Wushuang and Chris look at Shen Wancai curiously.
Ao Wushuang only glanced at it and then retracted his gaze lightly. He did not pay attention to this wealthy man at all. But Chrissy didn't know where this old man came from, so she just looked at him blankly, and then He withdrew his gaze.
However, Ziyuan and Su Chan looked puzzled, as if they didn't understand why Shen Wancai came to swim in this muddy water?
Only Zhou Qin laughed: "Master, Shen Wancai is a very arty person. Think about it last time he was able to participate in the tea culture and art competition, why can't he come to participate in the auction of such antique cultural relics? He has He is very rich, he is a VIP patron of major auction houses, and he is also a well-known antique speculator in China."
Li Yundong smiled and said: "So that's it, I understand."
Su Chan looked at Shen Wancai, and she suddenly said excitedly: "Yundong, it would be great if Mr. Shen could help us bid for the Medicine King Cauldron!
Li Yundong didn't comment, he just laughed.
Seeing that Li Yundong didn't speak, Su Chan hurriedly tried to persuade Li Yundong, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she saw two more people coming in at the door.
As soon as Ao Wushuang saw these two people, his face suddenly dropped, and his whole body seemed to be exuding a biting cold aura. He said in a cold voice: "Why are they here too?"
Li Yundong looked at the two people and asked curiously: "Who are they?"
Ao Wushuang sneered and said: "Xiyuanji Changsheng and Dongmu of the Shingon Tantric Sect are the two Japanese I told you about before."
Li Yundong suddenly frowned and looked at the two Japanese with flickering eyes. He saw that the two Japanese had sharp eyes and looked proudly at the people on the field. There was a determined aura of determination to win between their brows. He murmured in a low voice: "The person who came here is not a good person..."
