Chapter 185 Begins
Chapter 185 Begins
When Nangong Chen arrived at the Tianya Auction House, the auction house was almost empty.
Because it was still early, Nangong Chen thought that the other people participating in the auction had not arrived yet.
Looking at the almost empty venue, Nangong Chen prayed in his heart, praying that fewer people would come today.
This time, in order to obtain the Brahma Golden Bird, Nangong Chen brought all his savings.
But if there were too many people, Nangong Chen would not be very confident that he could take a picture of the Brahma Golden Bird.
After all, having a Brahma Golden Bird as a magical pet is like having an extra life.
With such a great temptation, few people can resist it.
As time passed, more and more people began to come in, but they were sparse and not many.
When the auction time came, not even one-third of the seats in the auction hall were occupied.
Seeing this scene, Nangong Chen was overjoyed and felt that God was really helping him.
With so many people around, the possibility of him bidding for the Golden Van Bird is even greater.
Nangong Jing was also present at the auction because he wanted to make sure that the Golden Brahma Bird was eventually auctioned off by Nangong Chen.
In fact, with Nangong Chen's appearance here, Nangong Jing's plan has been largely successful. Even if the Fanjin Bird is not auctioned off by Nangong Chen in the end, it doesn't matter.
But if it was auctioned off by someone else, the other party would definitely sign a magic pet contract on the spot, and then everything would be exposed.
Perhaps because there were too few people, the auction was delayed for a while. It was not until someone in the venue murmured in dissatisfaction that the host came on stage and announced the official start of the auction.
Because the Van Golden Bird is relatively precious, it is placed in the last few auctions, and the items taken out earlier are all real auction items.
It has to be said that Tianya Auction House is quite capable. Nangong Jing looked at the treasures that were taken out on the stage. One by one, they were not extremely rare, but they were all quite precious.
There are even spiritual magic cores. Spiritual monsters are extremely rare and difficult to kill.
Basically, every time a spiritual magic core appears, it will cause a scramble for it.
Nangong Jing couldn't help but join the auction. Even though the technique Nangong Jing was practicing now could increase his mental strength, it didn't mean that the spiritual magic core had no appeal to him.
Xuanyuan Xingyao's assets were basically in Nangong Jing's hands, so almost everyone who came to participate in this auction was wealthy, but in the end they were still suppressed by Nangong Jing.
In order not to delay the subsequent plans, after Nangong Jing successfully bid for the spiritual magic core, he went to Manager Yu to pay for the magic core and got the item in his hands.
"Manager Yu, if you have similar magic cores in the future, please let me know."
After Nangong Jing got the magic core, he looked at it with joy for a while, and then put it into the space ring.
"Of course, of course."
It’s just a notification, and Manager Yu will naturally not refuse.
After getting the magic core, Nangong Jing quietly returned to his position and waited for the Van Golden Bird to appear.
It was not until much later that a staff member pushed the golden bird up.
Not many people present knew that the Golden Brahma Bird would be present in this auction.
Therefore, when the host introduced that the bird on the stage was the legendary Brahma bird, discussions immediately broke out in the venue.
Many people even began to feel attracted to the bird, but after seeing the carved patterns on the cage that held the Brahma Golden Bird, the flame of excitement in some people's hearts was instantly extinguished.
Manager Yu knew too well the preciousness of the Golden Van Bird, so there was not much publicity for today's auction. The only ones who knew about the good stuff today were basically regular customers.
These old customers are basically aware of some of the rules of Tianya Auction House.
For example, the pattern on the cage holding the golden bird represents a trap, which means that there is something wrong with the bird and it is not recommended to photograph it.
This is also just in case, just in case some young man really breaks in and joins the auction.
When the auction is over, the auction house can also use this pattern to speak for itself, and it will not affect the auction house's reputation.
In fact, this is not the first time that Tianya Auction House has had a transaction similar to that with Nangong Jing, because Tianya Auction House has a bad reputation.
The Brahma Golden Bird is quite rare, and the starting price is 500,000 gold coins.
When Nangong Chen heard that the starting price was 500,000 gold coins, he gasped on the spot. This was too expensive.
Fortunately, Nangong Chen made some investments after he grew up. Combined with the New Year's money he had received since he was a child and the rewards given by Nangong Tao, his wealth was still considerable. Otherwise, he would not have been able to bid for several rounds.
"One million."
As soon as the host on the stage finished speaking, Nangong Chen doubled the price.
This obviously nouveau riche behavior attracted some people's attention.
Those who could understand the pattern even wondered in their hearts whether this was a young man who didn't know the rules, or a fish that had taken the bait.
"One million and one hundred thousand."
Nangong Jing followed suit and called out the price.
The play still needs to be acted more realistically, and buying the Brahma Golden Bird for only one million is too cheap for Nangong Chen.
It's not a bad idea to make him bleed before he dies, Nangong Jing sneered at Nangong Chen.
Of course, because the atmosphere inside was very gloomy, Nangong Chen did not see Nangong Jing's sneer, and he didn't even know that Nangong Jing was there.
But when he saw someone competing with him, he subconsciously glanced at Nangong Jing and then shouted loudly.
"One million and a half."
Nangong Chen was determined to get the Brahma Golden Bird, so he gritted his teeth and directly increased the amount by 400,000 gold coins.
In addition to Nangong Jing bidding the price, the "shill" arranged by Manager Yu also started "working".
"One million six hundred thousand."
"One million eight hundred thousand."
"Two million."
In just a short while, the price of the Brahma Golden Bird reached two million.
Seeing this, Nangong Chen did not dare to delay and immediately raised the price.
With the support of Nangong Jing and several others, the price gradually rose to three million.
Nangong Chen also started by asking for hundreds of thousands and gradually increased it to tens of thousands.
Apparently, the money on hand was not much anymore. Seeing this, the people at the auction house began to slowly withdraw their activities.
But don’t let Nangong Chen stop calling because he doesn’t have enough money, and end up with this thing hanging in his hands. That would be bad.
The people at the auction house began to stop bidding one by one.
Nangong Chen didn't have many gold coins left, and seeing so many people bidding, he started to feel nervous.
After all, once you buy goods at Tianya Auction House, you must pay immediately, otherwise they will be seized.
If it is really detained, it will be embarrassing.
But just when Nangong Chen hesitated slightly, the bidding sounds around him began to decrease.
Nangong Chen's confidence suddenly increased. He gritted his teeth and shouted directly.
"Three million, one hundred and thirty thousand."
This was all the spare money Nangong Chen had. If it still didn't work out, Nangong Chen would have no choice but to return home with regret.
Even the change is missing, it's obvious that he has no money left.
If it were any other item, people around would have started bidding long ago, but everyone who knew what was going on with this Golden Van Bird would know. So even after the host asked three times, no one started bidding until the hammer fell.
When the host asked if anyone else wanted to bid, Nangong Chen's heart almost jumped out of his chest.
When the hammer fell, Nangong Chen almost jumped up with excitement.
Nangong Chen was a little petty and worried about what would happen if someone took advantage of him after the auction.
So without waiting for the auction to end, he went to pay the money, then took the Van Golden Bird and prepared to leave early.
Nangong Jing expressed his delight at Nangong Chen's early departure.
It was already late at night, and the streets of the imperial capital were empty, with no one on the street.
Nangong Chen happily carried the cage and hurried to the Duke's Mansion, looking at the cage in his hand every few steps.
Whenever Nangong Chen thought about how happy the magician would be after giving the Golden Brahma Bird to him tomorrow, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Nangong Jing looked at Nangong Chen's silly look in the dark and curled the corners of his mouth coldly.
When Nangong Chen crossed the alley and was about to walk onto the street, Nangong Jing took action.
"Flame, fireworks all over the sky."
While Nangong Jing was giving orders to Yan, he also used his mental power to give orders to attack the Fanjin Bird.
Although the Golden Bird is a healing bird, it does not mean that it has no attack power at all.
In fact, the feathers of the Vanjin Bird are very sharp and can collide with a steel knife just as effectively.
The cage where the Fanjin bird was located had also been tampered with. The Fanjin bird easily cut open the cage with its feathers and attacked Nangong Chen.
Before Nangong Chen could recover from the shock of the Golden Bird suddenly breaking out of its cage, he saw the Golden Bird attacking him.
Nangong Chen subconsciously fell to the ground and dodged. Before he could react to what was happening, he saw a patch of red suddenly appear in the originally dark sky.
And the red color quickly fell to the ground, and judging from the direction it was heading, it was obviously coming towards him.
If Nangong Chen still hasn't realized that he has fallen into a trap by this time, then he would be too stupid.
Although Nangong Chen didn't know who was plotting against him, he immediately took out his magic wand and fought back.
However, Nangong Jing's attack was very sudden, and one blow after another, leaving Nangong Chen no chance to fight back.
When Nangong Chen took out his magic wand, the fireworks in the sky fell on Nangong Chen.
Even with the magic robe protecting him, Nangong Chen still screamed in pain.
“Who is it, who is it???”
Nangong Chen didn't understand who was going to such great lengths to plot against him.
Nangong Jing looked at Nangong Chen's crazy appearance coldly, and the arrogant look of Nangong Chen when he tortured and killed him in his previous life emerged in his mind.
Although it was the middle of the night and there were not many people on the streets, it was better to be safe than sorry, so Nangong Jing decided to fight quickly.
Nangong Jing summoned all the remaining monsters and had them attack Nangong Chen at the same time.
When he saw several monsters attacking him at the same time, Nangong Chen finally reacted.
"Nangong Jing, it's you, right? Come out here!!!"
Nangong Chen shouted while desperately casting magic to attack the monsters.
Nangong Chen was yelling so loudly, actually he was hoping to attract other people's attention.
With so many monsters, Nangong Chen has almost no chance of defeating them with his level of cultivation.
If there is no miracle, Nangong Chen will almost certainly die.
Nangong Jing did not go out immediately, but waited until Nangong Chen was almost dying before he slowly walked out of the darkness.
