Just when Bai Ze's spatial screen wall had just been scanned, someone was upstairs in the auction house.
Those who were originally following Qi Wuji all stopped consciously when they reached the door of the study room of the owner of the auction house.
The owner took out a bunch of keys from his waist, unlocked the study door, and walked in first.
Qi Wuji then followed in and closed the door.
The owner of the auction house looked back and saw that none of the people who had followed Qi Wuji had followed him, and he was a little relieved.
Walking to the tall bookshelf behind the desk, the owner of the auction house shook his palms, and a strong earth spiritual power surged out from his arms and quickly poured into the tall bookshelf in front of him.
Then, Qi Wuji saw the whole bookshelf make a "click, click, click" sound, and all the books on it flew up, rising and falling on the bookshelf, and finally all the books were rearranged on the bookshelf.
If you stand in Qi Wuji's position and look over, you will find that what has been rearranged among all the books is an ancient rune.
The runes were arranged successfully, and the large bookshelf quietly cracked open in the center, revealing a dark passage behind the bookshelf, with damp steps leading straight down...
The owner of the auction house put away his spiritual energy, turned around and said respectfully to Qi Wuji: "Young Master, what you want to see is right here."
Qi Wuji didn't say a word and stepped in.
The owner of the auction house pulled a pine oil torch from the wall and carefully followed Qi Wuji. The two of them walked along the dark steps to the underground chamber one after another.
At the same time, those who were standing outside the door and who came with Qi Wuji, after Qi Wuji followed the owner of the auction house into the study, took out a talisman as red as blood from his sleeve pocket and posted it in the study.
on doors and walls.
Then, these people began to chant in low voices, and at the same time they turned out strange red spells in their hands.
After the spells were punched out, they were integrated into the bright red talismans on the wall one by one. Then, the entire wall gradually became lighter at a speed visible to the naked eye...
In the end, the entire study disappeared into thin air.
At this moment, under the dark room, Qi Wuji was standing in front of a tall, oval white crystal body that was as clear as glass.
Qi Wuji squinted his eyes slightly and looked carefully at what was inside the white crystal glass body...
people
"Is this the thing my father hid?" Qi Wuji carefully looked at the person inside the crystal glass body and asked casually.
The owner of the auction house nodded quickly: "Yes, the master stored him here ten years ago. So far, except for you, the master, no one knows about it, and no fourth person has ever been here."
Qi Wuji quietly looked at the person inside the white crystal body.
From the outside, the crystal glass body is more than two meters high, and the overall shape is oval, like a large egg placed vertically.
It was filled with light yellow liquid, and in the center of the liquid was a boy about ten years old suspended.
The boy had no clothes on, and there was a long umbilical cord at his belly button. The umbilical cord connected the boy to a placenta-like thing filled with dense blood vessels under the vitreous body.
The naked eye can see blood flowing slowly in the umbilical cord. The umbilical cord and the placenta-like thing underneath are obviously a source of life-sustaining nutrients for the boy suspended in the liquid.
The boy suspended in the liquid was very quiet. Except for the occasional slight movements of his head and limbs, he looked like he was sleeping quietly.
Qi Wuji walked around the white crystal vitreous body and found that behind the vitreous body, there were two large and small white crystal bottles. One of them was fresh plasma, which was being slowly sucked away by the huge placenta under the vitreous body.
absorb.
Next to the big bottle, there is another bottle the size of a palm, which is immediately filled with a black-purple liquid.
The black-purple liquid was released extremely slowly, blending little by little into the large bottle of fresh plasma, and was absorbed by the giant placenta.
Qi Wuji looked at the small bottle and asked, "What is in this bottle... my father's derivative?"
The owner of the auction house hurried over. When Qi Wuji asked about the small bottle, he quickly shook his head: "I don't know what's in this. These large and small bottles were delivered at the same time. There has never been anyone here since they were put there."
It has not been touched. Only occasionally certain people come to fill it with fresh plasma."
Qi Wuji straightened up, slowly turned to the front of the crystal body, and looked up again at the boy floating inside: "You just said that it has been ten years since he was sent here?"
The owner of the auction house nodded quickly: "Yes, ten years."
Qi Wuji stared at the boy's face carefully.
This boy looks to be about ten years old.
"So, when he was first delivered, he was still a baby freshly dug out of his mother's womb?"
The owner of the auction house nodded honestly: "Yes, when it was first delivered, this child was not half as long as your arm. He was a baby boy who was about to be born. Over the years, he has grown up little by little here. Ten years later, he
He has actually grown up like a normal child."
Speaking of this child, the owner of the auction house showed some emotion in his tone.
Although this child was suspended in the water all day long, he had watched him grow up little by little. Although he had never communicated with him, he had developed feelings for him.
Qi Wuji, however, was entirely concerned about the emotions of the owner of the auction house and continued to ask: "Did my father ever say how big this thing can be before it can be released?"
In his eyes, the boy inside the glass body was not a human being at all.
The owner thought for a while, frowned and said, "I didn't say anything specific, but when I came to see it three years ago, I said to myself that it would be fine in about ten years."
"Based on this, this child is probably the same as ordinary people. He will not be released until he is at least eighteen years old. But these are all my guesses. The master has never mentioned this."
Qi Wuji nodded and said to himself: "So, it will take another eight years."
After speaking, he slowly raised his arm and placed his palm on the smooth surface of the white crystal body.
Then, the owner watched helplessly as the huge crystal glass body disappeared into thin air.
The boss's eyes widened immediately, and he grabbed Qi Wuji's arm in horror: "Young Master, you said you only came in to have a look, you, you took this thing away, if the master knew, I, my whole family's lives would be
No guarantee!"
Qi Wuji's handsome face was half innocent and half unruly, but there was no sympathy at all.
Gently removing his boss's hands from his arms, Qi Wuji patted his chubby face with his hands: "My father and I have never been on good terms. You are the person he trusts, but you don't even know this. You deserve it."
Slaughtered."
After saying that, he raised his legs and walked towards the secret passage.
After walking out of the darkroom, the study room was still in front of him when he came in. It wasn't until Qi Wuji stepped out of the study door that the whole space shook like water waves, and the original study room reappeared.
