Some people talk about antiques and calligraphy and paintings with great expertise, and some even mention the spirits of artifacts, but they describe them as supernatural events. Shang Lin confirmed that they were artifact spirits based on their descriptions.
Their Yuntai Sect already has three artifact spirits, but Shang Lin wasn't particularly interested when he heard that. In fact, there weren't many things that could truly interest him; what he wanted was something he genuinely needed, unrelated to interest.
Shang Lin's meal cost Situ Pojun several thousand coins. When he saw the bill, he could hardly believe his eyes. Although he knew that food on a ship would be more expensive than on land, but...
Shang Lin can really eat!
But it wasn't the expensive food they ordered that won them over; it was the sheer quantity. Situ Pojun silently gave Shang Lin a thumbs up. "As expected of you, you're exceptionally capable in everything you do."
In fact, Shang Lin himself did not expect that he would eat so extravagantly. After a moment of shock, when he wanted to pay, Situ Pojun beat him to it.
He said, "I'm the one who brought you out here, how could I let you spend money? That would be inappropriate."
Shang Lin was about to say, "What's wrong with this?"
Then I heard a man sitting next to me whisper, "I heard that one of the items in this auction is a painting of a night view at sea. The painting is incredibly skillful; no matter which angle you look at it from, it's all portraits. It's said that whoever gets this painting will suddenly become rich, but will soon disappear or die suddenly."
Shang Lin subconsciously looked at Situ Pojun and directly transmitted his voice to him, asking, "Really?"
Situ Pojun cooperated by using telepathy, but the response was not satisfactory. He said, "I have heard of it, but I have never seen it, so I cannot confirm whether it is true or not."
Shang Lin nodded slightly. Indeed, without knowing the truth, he would not comment. But judging from that person's description, it should be the work of evil spirits that took advantage of people's greed.
However, upon mentioning the paintings, Shang Lin suddenly remembered that there were two paintings on the third floor of the Dragon Spirit Tower that sealed away evil spirits. He wondered what the situation was like in the paintings now.
Seeing that Shang Lin had fallen silent again, Situ Pojun continued, "Now that we've eaten, let's take a walk around."
"All right."
Actually, Shang Lin wasn't really interested in whether it would turn or not. He had just woken up and couldn't fall back asleep in his guest room, so looking at the ocean in the human world seemed like a good idea.
Oh, there's one more thing. He wanted to know if Xiaobai was nearby.
However, the sea during the day and the sea at night are quite different. During the day, the seawater is azure blue, and under the sunlight, it shimmers with a platinum luster. Even the sound is clear and bright.
But the sea at night is a deep blue, almost inky, with low, calm waves that conceal a profound mystery, as if it can plunge everything into darkness.
Shang Lin's gaze searched the sea surface, but he couldn't sense Xiao Bai's presence at all, or even She Jinxing's. If it weren't for the fact that he could confirm the little snake's safety through the servitude contract, he would have summoned it back.
Shang Lin, who could attract attention simply by standing there, was approached by someone again. At least this time it wasn't a sleazy, greasy middle-aged man, but a promising young man, who was still a man.
Well, for Shang Lin, a man devoid of desires and devoid of emotions, whether the person who provoked him was male or female, he didn't care. It's just that this man wasn't human!
The original owner's constitution, which attracts other beings, is showing itself again at this moment!
