"What? A snake head? "
Qin Haodong almost jumped up when he heard the news. He was looking for the bronze head to improve his cultivation. He was naturally excited when he heard the news about the snake head.
Originally, he wanted to spend time at the auction, but now it seemed that he had to go.
Li Dongguo was slightly stunned. He didn't understand why Qin Haodong was so excited. As far as he knew, a bronze head was only sold for more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars, which couldn't be compared with the one billion yuan check on the table.
He asked doubtfully, "Brother Medical Sage, what's the problem?"
Qin Haodong also knew that he had lost his composure, so he quickly said, "I heard that the bronze head was stolen from Huaxia. I've always wanted to find it and give it to the country. I accidentally heard the news about the snake head, so I was a little excited. Please excuse me, sir."
"I didn't expect you to be a patriotic person." Li Dongguo said, "I also had the same idea when I first heard the news. I wanted to buy the snake head and give it to Huaxia."
"Sir, you don't have to worry about it. Leave it to me."
Qin Haodong wanted the Upper-Level Spirit Stones in the bronze head. As for the bronze head, he would definitely return it to Huaxia later.
Then he asked, "Sir, who is this Sir Owen?"
Li Dongguo said, "Sir Owen is a great man. He is from the Empire of The Unsetting Sun. Due to historical reasons, he has a large number of properties in Hong Kong and lives in Hong Kong for most of the year. In his words, he prefers the climate and cultural environment of Hong Kong to the Empire of The Unsetting Sun.
"The reason why people call him Sir is not out of respect, but because he is indeed a marquis appointed by the Empress of The Unsetting Sun.
"People often say that I am one of the top ten richest people in Hong Kong. In fact, this kind of statistics is not scientific. If I compare myself with Sir Owen, his wealth is far greater than mine.
However, he was a collector. He had exchanged all his money for all kinds of collections, whether they were from East Asia, Europe, or America. He had collected all kinds of antiques. No one knew how many collections he had in his warehouse.
Someone once secretly calculated his assets, but the result was inestimable because the value of antiques rose too fast.
For example, 40 years ago, someone bought three bronze heads for $4,500. Now, the price had increased by thousands of times.
So everyone knows that Sir Owen is very rich, but we can't calculate his specific assets. "
Qin Haodong nodded and said, "Do you know how this bronze head fell into Sir Owen's hands?"
Li Dongguo said, "I don't know the details, but it's said that Sir Owen's ancestor was an officer of the Empire where the sun never sets. He once participated in the invasion of Huaxia more than 100 years ago and brought back a lot of treasures from Huaxia. His family also began to develop at that time.
I've never heard of Sir Owen buying a snake head before. It seems that his ancestor must have brought it back from Huaxia. "
Qin Haodong's heart skipped a beat and he said, "That is to say, in addition to this snake-head sculpture, Sir Owen may have other sculpted heads of the 12 zodiacs?"
Li Dongguo said, "I'm not sure about this old man. In short, he only took out a snake head this time."
Qin Haodong thought for a moment. It was already very good for a person to have a treasure like the bronze head sculpture of the 12 zodiacs. He should get this snake-head sculpture first.
After that, he asked Li Dongguo about Sir Owen's situation in detail. Seeing that it was almost time, he said, "Sir, we've almost finished eating. I'll go to the auction now."
For him now, nothing was more important than this snake-head sculpture.
Li Dongguo said, "Well, I'll ask Uncle Cheng to send you there now."
Qin Haodong said, "There's no need. Sir has a lot of things to do at home and he needs help. Just give me a car and we'll go there by ourselves."
Li Dongguo thought about it and agreed. His family was in a mess now and many things needed to be sorted out from scratch. He couldn't do without Uncle Cheng, so he said, "Well, I'll ask someone to arrange a car right away."
Li Meiyu said, "Haodong, I've told the person in charge of the auction and they've already prepared the bidding number plates for you. The funds have not been used yet. You can buy whatever you like at that time. You don't have to worry about the price."
Qin Haodong felt that although it had only been half a day, this girl was much more mature than before, as if she had grown up all of a sudden.
"That's very kind of you."
Qin Haodong patted Li Meiyu on the shoulder and said, "If you need any help, just tell me."
After that, he left the Li family's villa with Nalan Wushuang.
Looking at their backs, a touch of loneliness flashed across Li Meiyu's face, and then she sighed softly.
"Little girl, have you fallen for him?"
Li Dongguo stood behind Li Meiyu and saw his granddaughter's expression clearly.
There was nothing to hide from her grandfather. Li Meiyu nodded and said softly, "But he has too many girlfriends."
Li Dongguo said, "It's impossible for any woman to monopolize a man like the Medical Sage. If you like him, you have to be prepared to accept other people's ideas."
Li Meiyu said with a gloomy look, "Even if I can accept him, he doesn't like me. After all, his girlfriends are too excellent and can help him a lot, but I can't."
Li Dongguo said, "My granddaughter is also excellent. Our Li family has hundreds of millions of yuan and is also a famous family in Hong Kong. You can show him your achievements, and then he will naturally see your excellence."
"I know, grandpa."
At this moment, Li Meiyu's eyes were full of fighting spirit.
In a valley in Thailand, the sun was shining brightly, the vegetation was lush, and the scenery was beautiful. It was like a fairyland on earth.
There was a magnificent temple on the hillside. The temple occupied a large area, and in the spacious courtyard sat an old monk.
The monk looked to be in his 70s or 80s, wearing a red frock. He was not too tall, but he was very fat. He was more than 1.7 meters tall and weighed more than 100 kilograms.
He was the most famous Buddhist Zen Master in Thailand, Song Gang. In public, he was an eminent monk, but in private, he had a secret identity — the Master of Black Magic.
At this time, the temple door opened and two men in black came in carrying a sack.
"Zen Master, the blood food you want is here."
Song Gang opened his eyes and said, "Open the bag and then you can go out."
"Yes, Zen Master!"
The two men answered and opened the sack. There was a young man in his twenties inside.
"What are you doing? Why did you catch me? " The young man looked around and immediately saw Song Gang as if he had seen his savior. He stepped forward and cried, "Master, please save me."
Song Gang smiled kindly and said, "Young man, don't worry. I'll help you."
After that, he waved his hand and the two men in black immediately left and closed the gate of the temple.
Since the men in black had left, the young man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master, where am I? How can I go back? "
Song Gang said, "It's very simple. I'll send you away now."
After that, his expression changed greatly. The kindness on his face disappeared, and his face was as ferocious as a ghost from hell.
He shook his arms and let out an extremely unpleasant roar. Then a horrible scene happened. Countless red beetles crawled out of Song Gang's body.
These insects were as big as a dollar coin, and the small ones were as small as sesame seeds. They were mixed together so densely that people could not help but feel creeped out.
After releasing these insects, Song Gang's body suddenly lost more than half of its weight. He became as skinny as a match from more than 100 kilograms. He looked like a completely different person.
After these red beetles crawled out, they immediately rushed to the young man like a gust of wind and completely covered him in the blink of an eye.
"Ah …"
The young man let out a heart-wrenching scream. He wanted to struggle, but he could not resist these beetles at all.
After two or three minutes, these red beetles seemed to be much brighter and flew back to Song Gang's body like a tide.
When the last beetle disappeared, Song Gang once again returned to his original appearance, and his whole body became fat.
The young man had completely disappeared, not even leaving a piece of cloth on his body. It was as if he had never been here.
Song Gang sat down cross-legged and murmured. He was actually reciting the Ksitigarbha Sutra for the young man to help him.
After a while, the gate of the temple opened again and a middle-aged monk in his 40s or 50s rushed in. He was Song Gang's eldest disciple, Bonachai.
After entering the temple, Bonachai said in a low voice, "Master, something happened to Junior Brother."
Song Gang stopped chanting and slowly opened his eyes. "What's going on?" he asked.
Bonachai said, "Junior Brother went to Hong Kong and was killed there."
"Who dared to kill my disciple?"
Song Gang's expression immediately became gloomy. He did not care about Sarah Banta's life or death. What he cared about was that someone dared to offend his dignity.
He had always been a ruthless and vengeful person. All of his enemies had already been killed.
Bonachai said, "It's not clear yet. Junior Brother was poisoned to death by his own poison needle. It can be seen that the person is definitely a master."
"I don't care who he is. He can only die if he dares to hurt my disciple."
Song Gang stood up and said, "Pack your things and then go to Hong Kong with me. I'd like to see who that person is."
Bonachai said respectfully, "Master, I can handle this kind of trivial matter. You don't have to do it yourself."
Song Gang said softly, "Hong Kong is rich and there are many rich people. It's also a place where there are many masters. I haven't been out for a long time. It's a good time to go there."
