Chapter 338 Bauhinia Auction
In the evening, Yu Zehai brought Wang Lang and Yu Zejun to the site of the underground auction, a very inconspicuous courtyard located on the outskirts of Jingmen Island.
If Yu Zehai had not followed the map and found it completely according to the address on the invitation, he would never have thought that the organizer would have arranged the auction in this unpretentious place.
However, Yu Zehai felt relieved after thinking about it. The so-called underground auction, that is, the black market auction, is strictly speaking, a black market auction is not a legitimate place. Because here, no matter where the auctioned items are from, no one will investigate whether the items are illegal, as long as you have money, it is enough.
So usually places like this are the targets of the government's focus on crackdown and surveillance. These people choose the auction here, so there should be some taboo and darkness under the light. If there is no address on the invitation, who would believe that an incredible black market auction is being held in such a dilapidated courtyard?
The entire courtyard was a bit bleak, with only a few security personnel and beautiful women wearing cheongsams waiting for the guests at the door.
"Hello! Please show the invitation!"
When the security guard saw Yu Zehai and his group of three, he respectfully greeted him.
Seeing this, Yu Zejun quickly took out the invitation and handed it over. The security guard opened it and read it, then made an "invitation" gesture and said, "Several guests, please invite it inside!" After that, he shouted to the women in the yard, "Xiao Liu, three ordinary guests, bring it in!"
"yes!"
The girl named Liu responded, then saluted Yu Zehai and the other two and said, "Three guests, please follow me!"
"Um."
Yu Zehai nodded.
When I walked into the dilapidated courtyard, I realized that it turned out to be a "Siheyuan" that had several entrances and exits.
In a room, a girl named Liu wearing a cheongsam took out three masks and gave them to Yu Zehai and the other two, and said with a smile: "The three guests should have heard of our auction, because the nature of the auction is special. In order to ensure the safety of the lives and property of all the guests in the auction, no guests in the auction shall be shown in their true faces. Please understand!"
"no problem!"
Yu Zehai smiled, then picked up a mask that looked like a happy ghost and put it on. Seeing this, Yu Zejun and Wang Lang beside him also picked up a mask to cover their faces.
Led by the beauty of cheongsam, the group walked through the corridors and walked straight toward the depths of the house.
"What a hell!"
Yu Zehai couldn't help but mutter in his heart. It was a bit curious to come to such a place for the first time. However, this house is too deserted, right?
finally.
In front of an antique building, the beauty of cheongsam stopped and made a gesture with a smile: "Dear guests, please follow me to the elevator."
There is actually an elevator!
However, when Yu Zehai got on, he found something was wrong. This was actually an elevator leading to the underground, and it was on the 10th floor!
“So many layers?”
How deep did I dig under it? Yu Zehai was a little curious.
Under normal circumstances, each floor of high-rise residential buildings is usually between 2.8-3.0 meters. That is, according to 3 meters, the height of the 10th floor is 30 meters. This group of people are so active and dig a space 30 meters underground to build an auction house? It's really good and powerful!
Faced with Yu Zehai's doubts, the beauty of cheongsam smiled and said nothing.
"Boss, in fact, like some special places, they usually choose to hide deep underground." Wang Lang beside him said in a low voice, and he became much more cautious after coming here.
The elevator stopped on the 10th floor underground. When Yu Zehai and the others walked out of the elevator, their vision was empty, and it was like daytime.
Looking at this huge space, Yu Zehai's spiritual sense suddenly emanated. As Wang Lang said before, since ancient times, both officials and thieves have liked to bury their secrets underground. However, having dug such a large space in front of him, aren't you afraid of collapse?
That's right!
What caught Yu Zehai's mind was a huge auction hall. In addition to the huge auction hall, the surroundings were divided into separate small rooms, which seemed to be the so-called "security rooms".
At this time, there were many people in these private rooms, some were one person, some were several people, and even a group of people... Four directions in the southeast, west and north, divided into areas A, B, C, and D. Each private room has clear numerical marks. For example, the one marked with the word "A-1-1" is the private room No. 1 on the 1st floor of the area A.
"Please follow me!"
The beautiful girl continued to bring Yu Zehai and others to the destination.
However, Yu Zehai and others held ordinary invitations and could only sit in the auction hall. Compared to the luxurious private rooms above, the hall was simply poor.
After arranging the three of them to sit in the vacant seat, the beautiful girl smiled and bowed and asked, "What else do you need, three guests?"
"No need for the time being, thank you!" Yu Zehai waved.
The beautiful girl smiled and turned around and left.
"There are quite a lot of people!"
Yu Zejun sighed.
"That's right!"
Yu Zehai nodded slightly. The occupancy rate of the entire auction hall was as high as 70%. Under his spiritual sense, the occupancy rate of the three-story private rooms above was also about 70%. What made Yu Zehaihai most incredible was that through the mask, he could clearly see that among the guests, there were not only Taoist priests, monks, rich people, and even those with big braids, which could be said to be stranger and mysterious than the other.
However, the most of these are still some rich rich people.
Yu Zehai retracted his gaze and then picked up the list of auction items on the small round table in front of him and looked at it. The list of auction items has three pages. After he finished reading the first two pages, a look of disappointment appeared in his eyes. Although many of those items were good items, it was useless to him now.
For example, Yu Zehai only glanced at the centenarian medicines. Nothing else! The medicinal materials grown in the space in the tower are far better than these centenarian medicines. If it were put in the past, he might have been competing for one or two, but now, these things cannot arouse his interest at all.
When Yu Zehai opened the last page, his eyes glanced at the list briefly, and then, his people couldn't help but stagnate, and an incredible look appeared in his eyes.
Space stone?
It turned out to be a space stone?
If this picture is taken correctly, it is definitely the main material for refining the space ring: space stone. Space stone, also called cracked stone, is one of the extremely rare space gems and is the main material for refining the space ring. Therefore, even in the world of cultivation, this rare ore is also an unseeable existence.
Yu Zehai's heart beat faster in an instant, and the corners of his mouth subconsciously raised a very beautiful curve. Since he had encountered this kind of treasure, how could he return empty-handed?
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the 118th Bauhinia Auction. This year's Bauhinia Auction was held on Jingmen Island. All the items on the auction items have been delivered. I am Huan Ji, a person from Jingmen Island, and the auctioneer of this Bauhinia Auction!"
"There are a total of 100 items in this auction. I believe you have already learned from the auction list. I also believe that you already have items you want to bid in your heart. You are all famous figures, time is precious, so Ji will not delay everyone. I hope you can buy your satisfactory treasures at this auction. I announce that the 118th Bauhinia Auction will start now!"
"The first item, Changbai Mountain Centennial Wild Ginseng, starting price: 800,000 Chinese coins, each increase must not be less than 50,000, and bidding will start now!"
“Huh?”
Listening to each other's ups and downs, Yu Zehai finally withdrew his thoughts. His eyes swept the auction table in front of the hall, and whispered in surprise: "This Bauhinia Auction is quite mysterious. Any small auctioneer actually has the strength of a first-class expert, which is interesting!"
"What? Boss, are you sure?"
The two people beside him exclaimed in unison.
Although Yu Zehai lowered his voice, Wang Lang and Yu Zejun, who were sitting on the left and right, could hear it clearly. So, when they learned that the delicate beauty on the auction stand was actually a first-class master, the two of them looked like they were looking like they were terrified, with their faces full of disbelief and incredible.
"Can this be fake?"
Yu Zehai rolled his eyes and stopped talking.
While they were talking, the first auction item, the century-old wild ginseng, was sold for 1.35 million yuan.
"The second sword auction item, Qingfeng sword!"
"Qingfeng Sword, the sword body is three feet long and weighs 18 kilograms. It is a special product in ancient times. The starting price is 5 million Chinese coins. Each increase must not be less than 500,000 yuan. Those who are interested can come to the stage to watch."
5 million?
Yu Zehai rolled his eyes. Isn’t it just a cultivator’s thing? As for it’s so expensive? It seems that if you are short of money in the future, you can make a fortune by simply refining a few items for auction.
only.
Yu Zehai ignored one thing, that is, in this Dharma-Ending Age, let alone refining weapons, even cultivators are not just small fish and shrimps. Because the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is scarce, the cultivation level is pitifully low. So, let alone whether these people have obtained the legendary weapon refining inheritance. Their cultivation level alone cannot reach the lowest level of weapon refining masters, such as Yu Zehai now.
There are many life skills of cultivators, such as refining weapons, alchemy, formation talismans, etc. The lowest learning standard is the hemolysis stage. Yu Zehai can now be said to have a treasure mountain but cannot enter. He has a systematic alchemy, refining weapons and formation inheritance, but because his own realm has not broken through to the hemolysis stage, the vital energy in his body has not undergone qualitative transformation into true energy, so he cannot generate "true fire", so he cannot learn it.
