The Ou Gu clan puppet is a rare work of art that exists in the long river of history. Under the long baptism of time, it has now become a precious antique.
If this delicate puppet is not attached to the mind, its position is at most an art-type antique.
Any object attached to the mind can not be regarded as an ordinary object, even if it is a broken and stained bowl or plate, as long as it is attached to the mind left by the predecessors, it is special.
Therefore, the Ou Gu clan puppet was special a few minutes ago, but now it has become an ordinary object after Law's hand.
Law's vague regret lies in the Ou Gu clan puppet's particularity for Ellie, as special as he wants the real Lord with restrictions and vows left behind.
Since the wood is already a boat, it's useless to think so much.
At this time, Law no longer resists the task of protecting Ellie. Originally, he wanted to enter the auction venue as Barney's bodyguard, so that he could detect special antiques at close range.
Barney will certainly not take Ellie with him when he goes to the auction, and Law's task is to protect Ellie, so he has no chance to go to the auction.
However, since Ellie is very interested in antiques, Barney may let Ellie see the collection he wants once he gets it.
If he can have a good relationship with Ellie, maybe he can get access to Barney's collection, and the 128 collections …
In short, he will do his best to protect Ellie until the end of the You Kexin Auction.
"It's lucky to meet you."
Law looked at Ellie, who was gently stroking the Ou Gu clan puppet.
"It's not lucky." Ellie shook her head, and there was a trace of sadness and pity in her light blue eyes.
Law was speechless. In terms of birth, it was really not lucky.
It was at the mercy of the Ou Gu clan during its lifetime, and its resentment after its death was also suppressed by the Ou Gu clan. In any way, it has nothing to do with luck, but it should be said to be unfortunate.
The resentment that Law absorbed in the puppet was very pure. From the perspective of a baby, it was as pure as the resentment of a raw stone.
This type of resentment had never been polished and was born naturally. It was like a straight line that continued from beginning to end, without any twists and turns. That was why it was so terrifying.
Seeing Ellie depressed because of his own words, Law was slightly embarrassed and didn't know what to say at this time.
"Law." Ellie suddenly looked at Law.
"Huh?" Law responded and met Ellie's gaze.
Ellie said seriously, "I want to collect the other six puppets of the Ou Gu clan."
Pa pa!
Law applauded decisively, then gave a thumbs up and praised: "Ambitious."
His support at the speed of light caused Ellie to reveal a pair of dead fish eyes. It was almost written on her face: You can be more perfunctory.
Seeing Ellie's eyes, Law awkwardly retracted his thumb and changed the subject, "Well, I'll tell you a fairy tale about puppets."
"Sure." Ellie's demeanor suddenly changed. Her eyes blinked, and she was just short of adding light effects.
"…"
What happened to that sad feeling just now?
Law sighed softly and then told the story: "Once upon a time …"
"Why does the beginning of a fairy tale have to be once upon a time?" Ellie tilted her head slightly.
Law almost choked on his saliva. He stared at her and said, "Do you still want to hear it?"
Ellie's neck shrank and said aggrievedly: "Yes."
"Cough."
Law finally got back a little, cleared his throat and continued to tell the story: "Once upon a time … There was a place called Paradise …"
"What an old-fashioned place name. Since it's a story about puppets, it should be better to call it Puppet Paradise." Ellie muttered.
Law almost choked on his saliva. Is it so difficult to coax children with fairy tales?
"Just tell me seriously, do you still want to hear it?"
"Yes."
"If you want to, listen honestly and don't talk."
"Oh." She replied aggrievedly.
Law was finally able to tell the story of the puppets.
However, the story seemed to become a lullaby. Within a few minutes, Ellie, who was listening carefully, fell asleep.
Kenda, who was guarding the door, quietly looked at the two people sitting on the sofa. He felt that it would be a good decision to let Law protect the young lady.
Not even halfway through Luo's story, Allie fell asleep without giving him any face, so he was able to get away.
When he was about to leave Ellie's room, Kenda's "Thank you" made Law somewhat inexplicable.
At the same time, Law noticed the difference on the glass screen before he left the room.
Ellie's room was basically the same as his room, but there was no circular pattern on the glass screen.
Law was puzzled, but he didn't think much about it. When he returned to the room, it was close to midnight.
He wanted to exercise the control of Ki again, but his tired body and spirit did not allow him to do so. He was forced to go to bed and soon fell asleep.
During the two days of guard duty on the spaceship, the sleeping time was basically zero. After getting off the spaceship, his nerves were relaxed, and the suppressed fatigue rebounded, but only now did he have a chance to rest.
There were three days before the You Kexin auction began.
However, when Law was assigned to Ellie's side, the You Kexin auction basically had nothing to do with him.
The auction lasted for ten days. The admission ticket and the auction catalog cost 12 million rings, and only two people could be brought in at most.
Barney would go to the venue in person, and the two people he brought, Kenda and Martin, would definitely go. Anyway, it couldn't be Law.
The role of Kuli and the other three and the bodyguards was to guard the outside of the auction site and monitor the entrances and exits. When Barney left the auction site, they would provide protection as soon as possible.
Although there was no chance to participate in the auction, Law didn't mind. His goal had changed.
Barney's 128 collections …
.....
The prosperous and debauched You Kexin was a city that never sleeps, but it was still very different from the world's largest casino city.
There were always sleepless revelries, even if only a small part of them.
There were many hotels built around many auction sites, and the surrounding entertainment facilities were all available.
Every year in September, You Kexin was the most crowded. Excluding the flow of tourists, the number of people who came to participate in the auction was more than ten times the original flow of people.
Therefore, the hotel rooms were full, and the surrounding entertainment facilities and even a small restaurant would be changed to a 24-hour operation. This change was only made this month every year.
Most of the people who came to participate in the auction were gangsters from the Six Continents and the Ten Districts. The reason why they flocked here was more or less related to the world's top leader, the Ten Old Men.
In itself, there was often cruel competition among the underworld.
When someone fell, someone would immediately take over. Territory and interests were the eternal theme of the competition.
In this relationship of cruel competition, assassinating the enemy became the norm.
Whether it was assassins or mercenaries, they would come to You Kexin every September to perform tasks for money.
In a certain hotel under the night sky.
In a luxury suite on the top floor, a black-haired boy stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a mobile phone and typing quickly.
[The commission is completed. Please transfer the reward to the account I specified.]
The message was written in a few seconds, pressed with his thumb, and then sent out.
This boy was the boy Law saw in the hotel's main hall. He was Ilmi from the family that beat the enemy. Ten years later, he would be a powerful and terrifying person.
"I started the commission three days in advance. I should be able to complete it on the last day."
Ilmi put the phone back in his pocket, turned around and looked indifferently at the lifeless body on the ground.
.....
It seemed that in a day or two, he would not be able to stay on the new book list and would have to be removed. On that day, he would count the recommendation votes.
At present, he already owed three updates, plus the leader's one update, a total of four updates. It was very desperate. Why don't you keep a low profile?
Also, about the ability of the Hand of God, students who do not know enough can go to the works related to Law's Hand of God.
