[037] dance on the tip of the knife

What is different from Bai Qianqian is that Shen You and Luo Feng have been wandering around the urban area of ​​Quancheng recently. The reason is simple. Su Qingqian learned from Zhuye Qingzou Qingmei that at this time every year, the Goode Auction in Quancheng The guild will hold a large-scale exhibition and auction.

Shen You also learned about the situation of Goode Auction House from Bai Qianqian. It is said that Goode Auction House was originally a pawnshop. In the early days of the Westernization Movement, foreigners reached an agreement with the then local government of Quancheng, buying half and giving half. It is said that when the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China, Goode Auction House also played a role in transporting domestic antiquities abroad.

According to hundreds of millions of people, Goode Auction House has transformed after the founding of New China and became an authentic and very famous collection and appreciation center. With the development of society, Goode Auction House also adheres to the principle of "trust" and at the same time works closely with It has made good friends with many big forces, and in recent years it has gradually become one of the top giants in the collection and appreciation industry in the country.

Exhibitions and auctions can be said to be the specialty of Goode Auction House. Exhibitions are just exhibitions without auctions, and they also have the meaning of testing prices. Auctions are much simpler, that is, the collection is presented to the highest bidder.

Shen You didn't pay attention at first, but then his heart suddenly moved. Of course, he was not interested in the auction items, he just wanted to see what was hidden behind the items in his hands.

Is it the jade piece or the inkstone?

Shen You thought for a long time and finally took out a jade piece. He knew that someone must be interested in the jade piece. From the fact that someone intercepted Lu Fang in Yanhai City to ask for the jade piece, he could tell that it was not an ordinary piece.

What's more, Shang Yingxiong, the veteran fire general of Qianmen, once told him about the importance of jade pieces. As for the inkstone, even the veteran fire general of Qianmen didn't tell him about it. Although he didn't tell anyone else, subconsciously he felt that it might be the case. It is the relic of Lu Tianxing.

The current boss of Goode Auction House is called Long Bodhi, a middle-aged hardcover man in his forties. Time has not engraved the slightest wrinkle on his face, and there is no sleek sophistication on his face. Instead, he is just capable.

Wearing a well-tailored Tang suit, with a sparkle in his eyes, he was sitting at Good Auction House, accompanying Shen You a little nervously.

Don't talk about the origin of the jade piece, let's talk about the time of the jade piece. It can be considered an antique, and when the master of the auction house passed the news about the jade piece to him, he couldn't help but ignore it.

Not far from their seats, three old men with white beards and hair were carefully passing the jade piece back and forth. Wearing white silk gloves, they passed it back and forth, watched carefully, and communicated with each other with their eyes. Finally, , one of them nodded solemnly.

The old man walked over slowly, handed his hands to Shen You reverently, and asked softly: "There are several mountains opening in front of the Bodhisattva's door. Which lineage do brothers come from?"

Shen You was stunned. He knew from Bai Qianqian that Goode Auction House might have connections with many political forces, but he didn't expect that such a master of antiques would open his mouth to speak slanderous words.

"Senior, you are very kind-hearted, and you are the first person in Yu Shen's sect." Shen You said softly.

Sure enough, after listening to his words, the old master breathed a long sigh of relief and then asked: "Penglai is surrounded by auspicious clouds in all directions. Do you dare to ask whether you should cultivate immortality or seek immortality?"

This question is more direct. After all, Shen You did not hide his identity. The Qianmen worshiped Dayu as the founder, and he also directly pointed out that he was the first person under Yu Shenmen to be the leader of the Qianmen. So the old man asked this question Whether he came to simply take a walk or to show off his skills to pay homage to the mountain gate, it didn't seem out of the ordinary even though it was direct.

Naturally, Shen You would not say this casually. According to his intention, the purpose of throwing out this jade piece was mainly to see how precious he was and which forces wanted to get him. Of course, he did not rule out that he might use the jade piece to start the story in the future. Thousands of possibilities.

Immediately Shen You said in an unusually solemn voice: "Senior, I wonder if the auction house can protect the jade piece when it appears?"

Before the master could speak, Long Bodhi nodded and said, "Brother, don't worry, any object that comes to our auction house will definitely follow the owner's heart."

Shen You smiled slightly and nodded without saying a word. This time when he came to Good Auction House, he naturally did not use his true face. The human skin mask that had been collected for many years was handed into his hands. The originally handsome young man suddenly became A middle-aged man in his 30s with a slightly maroon color.

After Long Boti finished speaking, the old master also nodded to reassure Shen You.

Because Shen You's object is on display, according to the rules of Good Auction House, ordinary objects can be placed in the glass covers on both sides of the corridor where they enter the auction house. Of course, there is also the possibility of being put on stage for evaluation at the end.

Shen You chose the latter. According to the rules, he could hold it until the moment of valuation. According to Shen You's mind, with his current skills, even if he could not be invincible, at least he would not have to worry about escaping.

Three days later, in the backyard hall of Good Auction House, many people walked along the exhibition corridor one by one. Various precious jades, ancient kiln calligraphy and paintings, etc. were a bit surprising at first, but in the end they became accustomed to it.

After arriving at the backyard hall, strict screening of personnel has basically been carried out. No matter how powerful you are, when you arrive at Good Auction House, you can either choose not to enter, but if you want to enter, you must abide by his rules.

The rules of the backyard hall are also very simple. There are only two representatives from a family. Even if you have a prominent status and a lot of wealth and bring a group of bodyguards with you, only two people can enter here.

Of course, Good Auction House absolutely guarantees the safety of people entering the hall. In fact, there are three levels of security from the moment you enter the door. Not to mention guns and ammunition, even knives are not allowed to enter.

Shen You did not enter with Luo Feng, but Bai Qian, who had a side-parted hair and a shiny look, was standing behind Luo Feng in a suit that was not eye-catching among the crowd, with his head lowered, as if he was following.

In the center of the backyard hall is a booth. The person hosting the auction stands in it. There are 10 small partitions in a circle around it. There are three small partitions in the southeast and west. People with some status will enter, while others People can only sit on the seats further back.

In the northernmost area of ​​the booth, there is a person like Shen You who displays treasures. Although there is a partition there, Shen You knows that it is a staff member of Good Auction House.

In the entire backyard, there are three posts, one post, five steps and one sentry, and the security is extremely tight.

After Bai Qianqian entered, he poked Luo Feng gently. Luo Feng understood naturally, and the two of them approached the corner and sat down.

According to the previous arrangement, the two of them mainly observed. In addition to observing the various forces, what was more important was to observe who was interested in it after Shen You took out the jade piece.

Because the people in partitions 1 to 9 are distinguished guests, and they have come for the collection from the beginning, so naturally they don't care about the exhibits in the corridor, or they have already arranged for family members or younger brothers to be responsible for these things.

Bai Qianqian glanced lightly at the people sitting on the chair like him. There were not many familiar faces, and naturally he understood that not many people could recognize him.

According to the inheritance of several sects, he may focus on observing young people from major aristocratic families or with relatively outstanding influence. However, with the gradual disintegration of Jianghu forces and the rupture of gang inheritance, except for a few outstanding ones, he may not have paid attention to them for a long time.

After all, many heritages have now over-commercialized and joined the ranks of making a lot of money. Perhaps many heritages have broken off and directly transitioned into black gangs that mainly work behind the scenes to smash and kill.

At this time, a bell rang. Then an old man wearing a white Tai Chi suit came up. Shen You took a look and saw that it was the old man who showed him the jade piece that day and asked him questions using Jianghu incision.

But what was different from his indifference was Bai Qian. Bai Qian's body was obviously shaken when he saw the old man. The old man was slightly older than him and was the brother of the previous boss of Good Auction House.

This identity alone is not enough to shock Bai Qianqian. According to his understanding, this old man should be the last descendant of Lotus Fist.

It is said that Lotus Boxing originated from the Beggar Clan, which has five major sects: Fan, Wu, Li Suo and Zhu. Fan is said to come from Fan Dan, the founder of the Beggar Clan, who once had a favor for Confucius, while Wu is from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Wu Zixu, Li is the Empress Li who exchanged civet cats for princes during the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty. It is said that she lived among the people and was sheltered by a group of beggars. Zhu is Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and Suo is the beggar named Suo who helped Zhu Yuanzhang save his life. Zhu Yuanzhang agreed. He begged in 13 provinces and later established his own business.

No matter which sect, there is Lotus Fist for protection, but each sect has developed differently. However, with the founding of New China, beggar gangs have gradually evolved. Many beggars are not the earliest members of beggar gangs, but also many members of beggar gangs. People are gradually moving closer to all walks of life and breaking away from the beggar gang.

The old man's name was Suobing.

As Suo Bingying came on stage, there were slight sounds of surprise from both private rooms No. 1 and 2. Obviously, someone in the private room knew that the old guy had an extraordinary origin, and seeing him on stage, they obviously guessed that this exhibition would be held. There will definitely be big moves.

Shen You, who was sitting in the north stand wearing a human skin mask, obviously guessed what the old man meant. After the old man knew that he was the general of Qianmen, he naturally also knew that the jade piece had an extraordinary origin, and he was afraid that some people would get interested after seeing the jade piece. Cause unnecessary disputes.

Suo Bingying said softly: "I will host this exhibition and auction. The one with the highest price will get the items on display. The items on display can be communicated privately."

As he spoke, the originally noisy hall suddenly became silent.

Bai Qianqian, who was in the corner, was also shocked. Naturally, he could think that the item that could bring Suo Bing out must be a treasure, and it was most likely related to the jade piece in Shen You's hand.
