Hiss——
The whole audience took a deep breath.
Ten million to buy a student’s painting. Are you out of your mind?
Everyone turned around and saw that the person who made the bid was actually Ye Qiu.
The Long-browed True Man said anxiously, “You little brat, are you crazy? Is such a crappy painting worth ten million?”
”There’s no way. Who told me to be rich.”
As soon as Ye Qiu finished speaking, he heard a burst of laughter.
”Hahaha, it’s really hilarious. Where did this idiot come from? He actually spent ten million to buy such a painting. His head must have been kicked by a donkey!”
The one who spoke was Young Master Zhang.
His little followers also laughed along.
”Tut tut tut, really rich!”
”Such a painting, I wouldn’t even take it if it was given to me!”
That kid actually spent ten million. Is this what is the legendary man who is stupid and has a lot of money?
”Hahaha…”
Everyone burst into laughter.
The host also thought she had heard wrong and looked at Ye Qiu and asked, “Sir, do you really want to spend ten million to buy this painting?”
”Of course it’s true. What, do you think it’s too cheap?”
”No no no, as long as you like it.” The host smiled like a flower. She might get a lot of commission for ten million.
Then, the host said loudly, “Ten million for the first time. Is there anyone else who wants to bid?”
No one responded.
”Ten million for the second time.”
”Ten million for the third time.”
Dong!
The host tapped the table with the auction hammer in her hand and said, “Ten million was sold.” Congratulations to this gentleman.”
The host then said to Ye Qiu: “Sir, according to the request of the author of this painting, after the auction, please move to the backstage, and this painter will personally hand the painting over to you.”
”Okay.”
Ye Qiu nodded.
……
Backstage.
A touch of surprise appeared in the girl’s bright eyes.
The female bodyguard said: “Miss, is that kid crazy? He previously said that your painting was childish, and now he spent such a high price to buy the painting. Is he stupid?”
The girl shook her head: “A thousand gold for a beauty’s smile, he’s not stupid at all.”
A thousand gold for a beauty’s smile?
The female bodyguard immediately understood. “Well, it turns out he has designs on you, miss. He’s really a toad wanting to eat swan meat. Doesn’t he take a piss and look at himself? Does he deserve it?”
……
Soon, the second auction began.
”The first auction was not a famous artist’s work, so the physical object was not exhibited. And starting from this one, all the auctioned collections will be displayed on this stage.”
”Please ask the staff to exhibit the second treasure.”
As soon as the host’s voice fell, eight staff members carried a large wooden box and came to the stage out of breath.
It seems that the thing inside the box is very heavy.
”This treasure is very heavy. Everyone, please look.”
The host gave the staff a look, and the latter understood and immediately opened the wooden box.
The next second, a rectangular stone tablet appeared in front of everyone’s eyes.
The stone tablet is two meters high, one meter wide, and pitch-black all over, weighing more than a thousand catties.
There are faint traces of inscriptions on the stone tablet, but the handwriting is already blurred and indistinguishable.
At the same time, a cold breath emanated from the stone tablet, causing the temperature in the entire exhibition hall to drop sharply by twenty degrees, and many people shivered with cold.
“What is the origin of this stone tablet?”
“Why is there such a strong yin qi on it?”
“Could it be something just dug out of a tomb?”
The crowd talked in a low voice.
The Long-browed True Man’s eyelids twitched, and he said in a deep voice: “This stone tablet has a very strong murderous aura. It seems to be an ominous thing.”
“Have you seen its origin?” Ye Qiu asked.
The Long-browed True Man shook his head.
At this time, the host said: “Presumably everyone has noticed that when this stone tablet appeared, the temperature in our exhibition hall dropped, right?”
Everyone nodded one after another.
“To be honest, when I first saw this stone tablet, my feelings were the same as everyone else’s.”
“I was very curious at that time. Why would such a cold breath emanate from a stone tablet?”
“It was not until I learned the origin of this stone tablet that I understood.”
“Now let me introduce the origin of this stone tablet to everyone. It is called the Murderous Qi Tablet.”
The Murderous Qi Tablet?
The crowd looked at each other in dismay.
Most of them were either collectors of antiques or antique dealers. As long as they were given a little hint about ordinary things, they would know their origin.
But this Shaqibi in front of them, they had never heard of it before.
Everyone must be very confused now. What is the Shaqibi? If I change its name, then everyone should know its origin.
This Shaqibi, it also has another name, called the Qishabi.
Suddenly, the whole audience boiled.
What, this is the famous Qishabi?
Didn’t it say that the Qishabi doesn’t exist? Why would it appear here?
It’s too incredible!
What is the Qishabi? asked Young Master Zhang, who was sitting in the first row, to the little beside him.
The little shook his head: “I don’t know.”
If you don’t know, won’t you check it? Stupid.” Young Master Zhang cursed loudly.
The little immediately took out their mobile phones to search. After a while, a little said: “I found it.”
Read it!”
The little said: “According to the “History of Ming”, the Grand Western Emperor Zhang Xianzhong killed people like flies and even deliberately erected a stele to make his ambition known, with the inscription: “Heaven gives birth to all things for man, but man has nothing for heaven. Kill kill kill kill kill kill kill”, this is the Qishabi. However…”
However what?” Young Master Zhang asked eagerly.”
The little is with replied: “However, regarding whether the Qishabi really exists, Youdaoplaceholder0 have different opinions. Some people say that this doesn’t exist at all. and others say that the stele exists, but the inscription on it is not this sentence.”
I see.” Young Master Zhang stared at the Shaqibi, lost in thought.”
The host quickly introduced the origin of the Killing Qi Monument, which was similar to what Zhang Shao’s lackey said, except that the host exaggerated it a bit, with the purpose of raising the auction price of the Killing Qi Monument.
“Alright, now the auction begins. The reserve price of the Killing Qi Monument is five hundred thousand, and each increase must not be less than fifty thousand. Please bid.”
“Five hundred thousand!”
“Fifty-five thousand!”
“Six hundred thousand!”
“Sixty-five thousand!”
Quite a few people participated in the auction.
“One million!”
Suddenly, a loud voice rang out in the first row.
Everyone looked and saw that Zhang Shao had bid, and they all closed their mouths, and the scene fell silent.
Ye Qiu stared at the Killing Qi Monument. He felt a little strange. How could a stone tablet release such a strong killing qi?
Out of curiosity, he quietly opened the Heavenly Eye.
His sight penetrated the surface of the stone tablet and saw inside.
Instantly, Ye Qiu’s heart jumped wildly.
The host’s gaze swept across the audience and said loudly: “One million for the first time, is there anyone else bidding?”
“One million for the second time.”
“One million for the third time. If no one bids, then this treasure will belong to Zhang Shao…”
The host raised the auction hammer and was about to drop it——
“Ten million, I want it!”
