In the private room.
Gu Yingying noticed Ye Chen's unusual behavior. She could not help but ask, "What's wrong, Master Ye?"
Third Master Gu, who was standing aside, looked over too.
"I did find something good." Ye Chen chuckled calmly. His expression remained the same.
Through his Divine Consciousness, he saw that there was a brush in the sandalwood box. Moreover, it was a writing brush.
If it were a regular writing brush, it would not have piqued his interest at all. Most importantly, there was a faint spiritual energy in the writing brush.
It was a spirit brush.
In the cultivation world, every talisman craftsman who wanted to craft talismans would need a spirit brush. The spirit brush was a medium, and cultivators could imprint spells on the talisman paper with it.
That way, the talisman that was drawn would be powerful. If it were a regular writing brush, the talisman drawn would be no different from a blank piece of paper.
If he could get his hands on this spirit brush, it would definitely be of great help.
Ye Chen secretly nodded as he thought to this point.
As Big Teeth Jin opened the sandalwood box, there was a writing brush inside. It was no different from a regular writing brush, but the handle was yellowed, and it looked old.
The people could not help but be disappointed. Some of them raised their doubts while scoffing.
"Master Jin, don't tell me that this writing brush is an auction item?"
"That's right. It's just a lousy writing brush. I have plenty of them at home."
"Do you really think we're that gullible? Is your auction house unable to take out anything good? "
"…"
Facing the people's doubts, Big Teeth Jin was not mad. Instead, he lifted his hand to signal the people to be quiet before saying, "Guys, don't underestimate this writing brush. It's the relic left behind by the late Master Xiao Buyi."
The people were shocked as soon as Xiao Buyi's name was mentioned.
"Xiao Buyi? Could he be the mysterious master Xiao Buyi who was famous in Macau, Hong Kong, and Taiwan? "
Big Teeth Jin nodded instantly. "That's right. It's the relic that he left behind. Master Xiao's descendant asked us to auction it for him."
In the private room.
Ye Chen turned his head to look at Gu Yingying who was next to him. He asked in confusion, "Who's Xiao Buyi?"
Gu Yingying shook her head to indicate that she had no idea.
"Master Xiao is a legend!"
Third Master Gu, on the other hand, was shocked. He inhaled lightly and said with respect on his face, "Master Xiao is a real Metaphysics expert. Rumor has it that he knows medicine, feng shui, and can even observe the sky. He was very popular in Hong Kong and Macau in the 80s and 90s. It was said that Master Xiao chose the ancestral grave of the richest man in Hong Kong and Macau. Unfortunately, even though he's well-versed in Metaphysics, he can't escape death."
Ye Chen nodded lightly.
Metaphysics had always been the culture of China since ancient times. After thousands of years of inheritance, many geniuses were born. Although they were just ordinary people, they could borrow the energy of the geography, mountains, rivers, the sun, the moon, and the stars to change fate.
Just as they were speaking, the atmosphere below the stage had already risen to a climax. Many people began to have thoughts of obtaining the brush after hearing that it was Xiao Buyi's relic.
Big Teeth Jin smiled and said, "This pen will be officially auctioned. The starting price is ten million, and each increment must be no less than one million."
His voice fell.
Before the people could bid, a cold voice came from one of the private rooms on the third floor. "Everyone, I'm Wei Dong. I hope that everyone will give me face and let me have this brush."
Although his words sounded very calm, it was mixed with a hint of irrefutable tone.
Wei Dong?
The people were stunned at first, then shock appeared on their faces.
Everyone present was from Tiannan. Everyone knew the name of Rock City's boss, Wei Dong.
They did not expect him to be here.
Some of them looked unwilling, but they dared not bid. They could only accept their fate.
Even some bosses who were no lower than Wei Dong chose to back off at that moment.
Although Master Xiao's relic was precious, it was not worth offending a boss for it.
Big Teeth Jin's expression changed, clearly upset. After all, Wei Dong had broken the auction house's rules. However, Wei Dong was the boss after all.
At that moment, the entire auction house was dead silent.
Just when everyone thought that the brush left behind by Master Xiao would be sold to Wei Dong for ten million yuan …
An extremely discordant voice rang out.
"20 million!"
Gasp!
The crowd gasped. Everyone could not help but look at the third floor following the voice. They were shocked.
Even Big Teeth Jin was shocked.
"Who exactly is that? Who dares to challenge Wei Dong publicly? "
In the private room, Gu Yingying looked at Ye Chen who had bid earlier with her mouth agape. She could not help but say, "Master Ye, you …"
She wanted to say that Ye Chen should not mess things up since Wei Dong had spoken. After all, Wei Dong's background was no weaker than the Gu family's.
Third Master Gu was shocked too.
Ye Chen remained unmoved and smiled calmly. "I can't help it. Who asked me to be interested in that brush too?"
Big Teeth Jin was over the moon when he snapped back to his senses. "The guest in private room No. 8 on the third floor has bid 10 million. Is there anyone who wants to bid a higher price?"
Although he said that, he could not help but look at private room No. 6 on the third floor.
At the same time.
In private room No. 6.
Wei Dong's expression turned grim as he said in a rather creepy tone, "Someone dares to bid against me?"
"I think it's that Master Ye earlier. Is he taking revenge on me for mocking him earlier?" Elder Priest Qingyang was stunned at first. Subsequently, his expression turned extremely terrible.
He thought it was something that he could easily get. Never had he thought that someone would come out of nowhere. Moreover, it was a scammer in his eyes.
Wei Dong walked out of the private room instantly and said to Big Teeth Jin on the stage, "30 million!"
Big Teeth Jin nodded. "30 million going once …"
Before he was done speaking, another cold voice came. "50 million!"
This time, everyone present was so shocked that they were completely speechless. They all looked at Private Room 8 with a look of admiration.
'Boss!
A real boss!
'Are you sent by a monkey to suppress Wei Dong?'
"You b * stard!"
Wei Dong could no longer hide the rage within him. He glared coldly at the private room that Ye Chen was in. Instead of being mad, he said while smiling, "Third Master Gu, please control your people!"
He finally understood now. It was indeed Ye Chen who was arguing with him. Since when had he been humiliated like that?
Third Master Gu looked at Ye Chen. He did not want to fight with Wei Dong because of that, so he said hesitantly, "Master Ye …"
Ye Chen did not even look at him and bid again.
"100 million!"
Wei Dong was speechless.
Third Master Gu was speechless.
Seeing that the price had increased to 100 million, Elder Priest Qingyang could no longer sit still. He said, "I'm determined to get this pen. I hope that you'll do me a favor …"
He was a master that was sought after by many. Nobody dared to say anything that he did not want to do him a favor.
"200 million!"
Another bid silenced him.
Dead silence filled the place.
Ye Chen lifted his gaze slightly and mockery appeared on his lips.
