Needless to say, the actions of the two little pythons had shocked Duan Lingtian.
"Could it be that Little Black and Little White discovered something edible?"
Li Fei's voice abruptly sounded out, and it was filled with surprise.
"It should be."
Duan Lingtian approved of Li Fei's words, as these two little pythons were simply two foodies.
But he was slightly curious, what exactly was it that was able to make these two little fellows so excited?
"Hiss hiss ~"
The two little pythons seemed to be able to understand the conversation between Duan Lingtian and Li Fei, and they turned around and fiercely flicked out their tongues, as if they were announcing their dissatisfaction …
"Young Master, Big Sister Fei 'er, don't talk about Little Black and Little White, look, they're both angry."
Kerr lightly stroked the little heads of the two little pythons, and the two little fellows meekly rubbed against Kerr before turning around and continuing to stare fixedly at the plate that was covered by the red cloth.
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled, and his gaze returned to the auction platform.
Right at this moment, the old man on the auction platform lifted up the red cloth on the plate …
One could vaguely see that a ferocious beast with a dispirited aura was locked up within a specially made small cage.
This ferocious beast was a little mouse, and unlike ordinary mice that caused others to feel loathing, this mouse's entire body was covered in golden fur and fluffy fur, and it was extremely similar to the plush toys on Earth in his previous life.
Presently, the little mouse was lying there drowsily.
"It's been drugged?"
Duan Lingtian frowned, as he noticed with a single glance that this little golden mouse had been drugged with something similar to the Origin Restriction Gu.
The Origin Restriction Gu was the poison that Xiong Quan was drugged with earlier, and it was capable of suppressing Origin Energy.
"So cute!"
The beautiful eyes of Li Fei and Kerr lit up when they saw this little golden mouse, and traces of maternal radiance were suffused within them.
"Hiss hiss ~"
After the two little pythons saw the little gold mouse, they became abnormally excited. If it wasn't for Duan Lingtian watching from the side, it was very likely that they would have directly smashed the window and charged down.
"Little Black, Little White … You aren't thinking of eating it, right?"
Duan Lingtian looked at the two little guys with a strange look in his eyes.
"Little Black, Little White, you have to be obedient. You can't eat it!"
Li Fei and Kerr also hurriedly looked at the two little guys and said in unison.
Immediately, the two little fellows drooped their heads, and their eyes flashed. They were obviously unhappy.
"Do you really plan to eat it?"
Duan Lingtian was a little speechless. Didn't they say 'snakes and mice are in the same nest'?
"However, if the poison in its body is removed, even if the two of you want to eat it, I'm afraid it will be impossible."
Duan Lingtian's gaze descended onto the little gold mouse once more. He was able to discern that the strength of this little gold mouse at its prime was probably not the slightest bit inferior to the two little pythons …
Or even stronger!
"Young Master, you said that little gold mouse is stronger than Little Black and Little White?"
Kerr couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice. She knew the strength of the two little pythons …
That cute little gold mouse that seemed to be harmless was stronger than them?
Li Fei was stunned as well, and she had an expression of disbelief. "Scoundrel, you wouldn't have seen wrongly, right?"
"Hiss hiss ~"
The two little pythons seemed to have understood what Duan Lingtian said, and they glared at Duan Lingtian. When they saw Duan Lingtian kick back at them, they instantly became dispirited and drooped their heads in dejection.
"You two little fellows, don't be unconvinced."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
"Young Master, can you buy it?"
Kerr looked at the little gold mouse, and her beautiful eyes flickered with the radiance of motherly nature.
"Yeah, Scoundrel, this little gold mouse is too cute."
Li Fei spoke out in unison.
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled. "Since both of you like it, then I'll buy it … If I'm not wrong, this little gold mouse is very likely a Goldfur Mouse."
"Goldfur Mouse?"
Kerr was fine and didn't have much of a reaction, however, Li Fei was slightly moved. "Goldfur Mouse? The king of fierce beasts that's said to be the strongest beneath demon beasts? The strongest rat type fierce beast? "
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded. "Based on its characteristics, it's more than 90% likely a Goldfur Mouse … As for whether it's a Goldfur Mouse or not, I'll have to wait until I buy it before I can observe it closely."
The old man on the auction platform had already started to introduce the little gold mouse. "Everyone, this auction item is one of the last three auction items for tonight's auction … I presume some of the guests present have discerned it. Right, this is a Goldfur Mouse, and it's even an infant mouse!"
"Normally speaking, an infant Goldfur Mouse would at most possess a strength at the Origin Core Stage … But this infant mouse possesses a strength at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage!"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the hall was in an uproar and completely went into an uproar.
"An infant Goldfur Mouse, seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage?"
"In this way, once this infant mouse matures, it's extremely likely that it'll transform into an existence at the Half-step Void Stage?"
"Not only at the Half-step Void Stage … A Goldfur Mouse that possesses a strength at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage at an infant stage can be considered to be a variant amongst Goldfur Mice, possessing extraordinary natural talent! Even to the extent that it might transform into a demon beast. "
"Demon beast? That's an existence at the Void Stage or above! "
…
Everyone was excited.
Buying this infant Goldfur Mouse was equivalent to buying an existence that had the potential to transform into a demon beast.
A demon beast was comparable to a Void Stage expert!
"Hmph! Don't be happy too early. Goldfur Mice are famous for being ferocious. Do all of you think you can control it? "
Right at this moment, a voice of ridicule sounded out from the corner of the hall.
Instantly, the clamorous sounds in the hall calmed down.
Right, a king of fierce beasts like the Goldfur Mouse wouldn't be willing to become a vassal of humans.
If one didn't possess formidable strength, then one couldn't even think of controlling this Goldfur Mouse.
"Everyone, this infant Goldfur Mouse has been poisoned with Origin Sealing Liquid by us, and its strength is only at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Stage … Once it's bought by a customer, our Ma Clan Auction House will send it along with the antidote."
The old man spoke once more as he slowly spoke.
"Young Master, what's Origin Sealing Liquid?"
In room number 1, Kerr had a curious expression as she asked Duan Lingtian.
"Origin Sealing Liquid is a type of poison that suppresses Origin Energy, but it can only suppress the Origin Energy of martial artists and fierce beasts below the Void Prying Stage."
Duan Lingtian explained. The Origin Sealing Liquid could be considered to be a lower level version of the Origin Forbidding Gu.
It was far inferior to the Origin Forbidding Gu!
If it was the Origin Forbidding Gu, then so long as it wasn't an existence at the Void Initiation Stage or above, practically everyone would be affected.
Just like Xiong Quan, he was poisoned by the Origin Forbidding Gu that day.
Kerr came to a sudden understanding when she heard what Duan Lingtian said.
"I truly never imagined that this infant Goldfur Mouse is even stronger than Little Black and Little White …."
Li Fei spoke in surprise. Her words caused the two little pythons to become restless, and their small eyes were filled with indignation.
"You two little fellows are still unconvinced?"
Duan Lingtian stretched out his hand to flick the little heads of the two little pythons, then his gaze once again descended onto the infant Goldfur Mouse, and his brows slightly frowned. "Logically speaking, an infant Goldfur Mouse is at most at the ninth level of the Origin Core Stage before it reaches adulthood … Looks like this little gold mouse isn't so simple."
Earlier, Duan Lingtian didn't discern that this little gold mouse was an infant.
Now that he heard what the old man said, he came to a sudden understanding, and he realized that this little gold mouse was mysterious and not simple.
Meanwhile, the bidding for the infant Goldfur Mouse had begun ….
"1,000,000 gold!"
A sonorous voice sounded out from a room on the second floor, and it directly suppressed all the bids from before.
Instantly, the hall went deathly silent.
1,000,000 gold was equivalent to 100,000,000 silver!
Practically no one in the hall was able to take out so much money.
"It's room number 7 again!"
Duan Lingtian was slightly surprised. He'd used 2,000,000 silver to suppress the bidding price of room number 7's 1,700,000 silver to obtain the Silver Fire Grass from before.
"1,500,000 gold!"
Right at this moment, a voice sounded out from another room.
"2,000,000 gold!"
A voice sounded out from another room.
The corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth twitched. These people are really rich and overbearing ….
Finally, the bidding price of the infant Goldfur Mouse temporarily quieted down after the bidding price of 3,000,000 gold was announced by the number 7 room.
"3,000,000 gold! That's 300,000,000 silver! "
"What the heck is in room number 7? So rich and overbearing! "
"Only the people of the Ma Clan Auction House know the identities of the people in the rooms on the second floor. Even if they leave, they leave through a special passageway."
"Perhaps they're members of the three great clans of Black Wind City, or perhaps they're members of those large trading companies."
… ….
Even if the people in the hall were just spectators, they were still shocked by such a sky-high price.
3,000,000 gold!
To them, this was a fortune that was difficult to reach.
"The guest in room number 7 has bid 3,000,000 gold …. Are there any other guests who wish to continue bidding?"
On the auction stage, the old man was slightly excited as well. "3,000,000 gold going once … 3,000,000 gold going twice …."
"3,010,000 gold!"
Under the expectant gazes of Li Fei and Kerr, Duan Lingtian unhurriedly increased the price.
Duan Lingtian's voice sounded out, causing the entire hall to become silent.
After a short moment, the hall was in an uproar.
"Everyone else is adding hundreds of thousands, isn't the guest in room number 1 too stingy?"
"Exactly, it's actually only adding 10,000 gold."
… ….
Many people started discussing.
When Duan Lingtian heard these discussions, he was disdainful.
10,000 gold?
Easy for you to say!
That was gold, not silver.
10,000 gold was equivalent to 1,000,000 silver, equivalent to a Ferghana Horse!
This was still considered little?
The loud and clear voice from the seventh room once again sounded out. "Three million five hundred thousand taels of gold!"
The group of people in the hall immediately sighed in admiration. "This is what you call domineering, directly adding 490,000 gold …."
"Exactly, compared to the guest in room number 7, the guest in room 1 is too stingy."
"I wonder if the guest in room 1 will continue to bid."
