C84 Linglong Treasure Box



C84 Linglong Treasure Box

0Three days later.    

    

The museum competition began.    

    

Wang Ziyan and Lin Faang arrived at the venue half an hour earlier than expected.    

    

They weren't the only ones who came early, the Li and Chen families also didn't come late.    

    

Lin Faang looked at Chen Yiming, who was shining like a 100-watt bulb in the crowd. He was surrounded by people, and those who didn't know him would think that he was the host of this competition.    

    

And Lee Feng, it was as if the stars in the sky were cupping the moon as people continuously came up to kiss up to him.    

    

Only Wang Ziyan was left in a pitiful state. Even her partners, who were used to being familiar with her, all left her side.    

    

Wang Ziyan took a sip of the liquor. Her expression remained calm, but her heart was in pain.    

    

"After today, I believe that everything will change." Lin Faang went up to comfort her.    

    

Wang Ziyan nodded and clenched her fists tightly. She had made sufficient preparations these days and believed that she would not lose this time's bid.    

    

Half an hour passed quickly.    

    

The official representatives also rushed over and stood on the stage.    

    

Everyone found their seats and sat down.    

    

Lee Feng was sitting not far away from Lin Faang. He glared at Lin Faang with a gaze full of viciousness.    

    

Lin Faang had also noticed Lee Feng's hostile gaze and chose to ignore him. For a nobody like him, it would be like crushing an ant to death if he wanted to crush him. Therefore, Lin Faang did not care about it at all.    

    

Sitting next to Lee Feng was Chen Yiming, who maintained a faint smile on his face. At this moment, he glanced at Lee Feng and then at Lin Faang, but no one knew what he was planning.    

    

The bidding started. The process was very simple. As early as yesterday, the various companies sent the copies of the relevant information, such as the tax registration certificate for the business license, to the bidder. After the bidder checked them one by one, the result was announced today.    

    

However, before that, the government organized a charity auction. Other than the items that appeared in the tomb, there were also cultural relics donated by philanthropists, calligraphy and paintings written by famous people.    

    

The host had already moved in a calligraphy and painting.    

    

Painted with mountains and rivers, the old man by the river hook fishing, the name: Jiang Taigong Fishing Wish to take the bait, author: Jiang Tai.    

    

Seeing this, Lin Faang also nodded slightly. This painting was indeed not bad. He had heard of Jiang Tai's name before. He was one of the famous painters in China.    

    

Using such a good painting as an opening brick was indeed a good idea. Moreover, the value of this painting should not be low either. It was likely that there would be many people who would be tempted by it.    

    

However, what Lin Faang found even more interesting was that this painting had another mystery behind it. Just like the name of this painting, Jiang Taizong was willing to take the bait.    

    

"The starting price is 100,000, the bidding price is not limited. Let the auction begin." As soon as the host's voice rang out, someone raised the plaque in their hand.    

    

"One hundred and fifty thousand."    

    

"Two hundred thousand."    

    

"Three hundred thousand."    

    

The price kept rising.    

    

Seeing Lin Faang staring at the painting, Wang Ziyan thought she still didn't know what Lin Faang liked, not to mention the gift she bought for him. Seeing that he was interested in the painting, she raised her hand and shouted, "Eight hundred thousand!"    

    

Suddenly, the price had doubled.    

    

Lin Faang also looked at Wang Ziyan in surprise. He didn't expect Wang Ziyan to actually bid.    

    

"I've never bought anything for you before, I didn't expect you to be interested in this kind of elegant painting." Wang Ziyan didn't bother to hide her thoughts as she smiled at Lin Faang.    

    

Lin Faang felt a warm feeling flowing through his heart as he looked at Wang Ziyan.    

    

Wang Ziyan's face turned slightly red as she was being stared at. She hurriedly turned her head away. "This is the only time!"    

    

Lin Faang nodded with a happy smile on his face. He stretched out his hand and held the back of Wang Ziyan's hand.    

    

Wang Ziyan did not resist and just treated it as a reward for Lin Faang to keep him company for the past few days.    

    

"Humph!"    

    

Not far from them, Lee Feng saw their sweet expressions. He could not help but snort in his heart. He raised his hand and said, "One million!"    

    

Wang Ziyan was slightly shocked when she heard that. She frowned as she looked at Lee Feng.    

    

Lin Faang also looked at Lee Feng in annoyance.    

    

Lee Feng stared at the two of them with a provocative look, as if telling the two of them to keep coming if they feel unhappy.    

    

Wang Ziyan raised her hand to continue bidding.    

    

However, Lin Faang grabbed her and pressed her down, whispering in her ear: "There's no need, there's something wrong with the painting, it's not worth that much money."    

    

Wang Ziyan looked at Lin Faang in confusion.    

    

"Trust me!" Lin Faang held Wang Ziyan's hand tightly and said.    

    

Wang Ziyan thought for a moment and nodded. She thought that Lin Faang probably didn't want her to draw too much wrong money.    

    

Buying the painting at the price of one million was indeed the highest price, but it wasn't worth it anymore. Thus, he calmed down and checked if there were any better paintings at the back to buy a new one for Lin Faang.    

    

"A million. Is there anything higher than that?" The host scanned the audience and asked.    

    

Other than the extremely high price, the rest of the people also wanted the Li Family to have a grudge. After all, since the Li Family joined forces, they could be said to have basically taken control of the entire Dragon City's economic operations.    

    

"A million going once!"    

    

"One million and two hundred thousand!"    

    

"One million three! Deal! "Congratulations to Mr. Li for getting the hook for this Jiang Taigong's fishing wish."    

    

The host dropped his hammer, and the hook with which Jiang Taizong was willing to fish fell into Lee Feng's hands.    

    

Lee Feng stood up and turned around to give his thanks. The crowd also applauded loudly.    

    

"This is the second item for auction, Bronze Longevity Turtle."    

    

The attendant immediately followed up with another bronze artifact. It was a bronze turtle the size of a human head, and the turtle shell on its back had the word "Life" on it.    

    

Tortoise represents longevity. Whether it is ancient times or modern times, many people like to raise turtles.    

    

Giving it to the old man was also a pretty good gift. Of course, do not treat this bastard like a tortoise. Otherwise, he would be scolding someone instead of giving him a present.    

    

"The starting price is 100,000, the bidding price is not limited. Let the auction begin." A smile appeared on the face of the host, and as soon as the words left his mouth, the crowd once again began to bid.    

    

Lin Faang looked at the bronze tortoise, touched his chin and thought for a while before raising his hand: "1.2 million!"    

    

It directly broke through a million.    

    

With that, he turned to look at Lee Feng with a smile.    

    

Lee Feng glanced at Lin Faang and sneered. How could he fall for such a small trick to raise the price? He directly ignored Lin Faang's provocative gaze.    

    

Upon seeing this, Wang Ziyan also guessed Lin Faang's thoughts. She whispered into his ear, "Although Lee Feng is a reckless person, no matter how much you provoke him, he will never fall for it."    

    

Lin Faang patted Wang Ziyan's hand and gave her a look of trust.    

    

Wang Ziyan looked at Lin Faang in confusion. She didn't know what Lin Faang was thinking.    

    

But after thinking about it for a moment, she didn't say anything more. It was only 1.2 million yuan, so she could afford it. Besides, that bronze tortoise was not bad at all.    

    

The host asked three times, and after confirming that he had not raised his hand, he came to a conclusion.    

    

After paying on the spot, the Bronze Turtle flew into Lin Faang's hands.    

    

Lin Faang looked at the bronze turtle in the box. His fingers gently rubbed the word "live" on the back of the turtle, while his eyes revealed a strange feeling.    

    

Next, the third, fourth, fifth...    

    

One by one, the auctioned items were released.    

    

As item after item was released, the strange look in Lin Faang's eyes became more interesting.    

    

"Next will be the thirty-sixth item, and also the last, Exquisite Treasure Box."    

    

At this time, a young man carried a box onto the stage. He was dressed in Chinese clothing, and with a wave of his long sleeves, he brought out a gentle breeze, making him seem like an ancient scholar.    

    

"Linglong Treasure box, made of purple gold zhennan wood. It contains 749 mechanisms, 6 of them were clear and 18 of them were hidden. They were created using the hand of Mo family's mechanical arts. It's unpredictable."    

    

The young man took out the Linglong Treasure box. As he spoke, his fingers nimbly moved along the top of the box.    

    

As his fingers moved, the eighteen secret spaces in the box were opened continuously. The degree of its ingenuity was astonishing, and the value of the collection was incalculable. After all, it was not only a work of art, it was also a valuable cultural relic.    

    

In the end, the young man restored the Linglong Treasure box, and his voice echoed throughout the entire auction, "I am Zhao Junxie, Master Du Haitang had said that as long as someone is able to decipher the eighteen secret spaces, the item can be taken away. If not, then the country that was donated will be placed in the museum, and those who are confident in breaking it can come up.    

    

For a moment, everyone was silent. This was clearly an impossible task. Seventy-nine traps, eighteen hidden ones, all needed a fixed method to break. If the wrong method was used, all the traps would automatically lock down.    

    

Those who were interested went up on stage with the idea of giving it a try. By gathering everyone's memories, it took them over half an hour to decipher two secret slots.
