Chapter 8 Strange Stones (today ask for monthly tickets and
The beautiful auctioneer on the platform began to introduce the next auction item.
Above the platform, a rock was moved up.
"This is a strange stone found in an ancient ruin. According to the investigation and some mural records at that time, this strange stone should have been regarded as a divine object in ancient times and was worshipped. Although the long years have passed and the ancient civilization has ceased to exist, this strange stone that was sacrificed has been preserved to the present. Since it can be worshipped as a divine object in ancient times, it must have some special functions. According to our current research, this strange stone has three supernatural features."
"First, the weight of this strange stone is extraordinary, more than ten times heavier than an average rock of the same size. This means that the material of this strange stone must be very special, but it cannot be identified so far."
"Secondly, this strange stone is indestructible. When its owner discovered it, he tried to divide it, but tried every means. No matter whether it was burning or cutting a knife or cutting an axe, he could not leave any scars on this surface. This is the second strange thing."
"Third, put this strange stone in a water basin, and the water in the basin will disappear cleanly after the next day. This strange stone is suspected to be able to absorb water, or even some energy, as if it needs energy, just like a living creature."
"Anyway, this is an extremely special strange stone. From these three strange things, you can imagine that this strange stone may have more magical or wonderful uses, but it is not yet known its real purpose."
After the auctioneer introduced the strange stone in detail, he continued: "Based on the various performances of this strange stone, this is definitely a rare treasure. The only regret is that it has not yet discovered its true function, so the starting price of five large amethysts is definitely a great value for money and a rare opportunity."
Listening to the auctioneer's encouragement, someone soon bid for the auction.
After all, the three places she mentioned were indeed supernatural, and in ancient times it was regarded as a sacrificial object, it may not be that this strange stone is really a rare treasure.
But some other people don’t think so. The person who got this strange stone must have tried his best to find out that the strange stone has other uses, so they took it out for auction.
Since this is the case, even if they took the photo back, they would only be placed there as a stone.
If there is no other special purpose, it is just a heavy and harder rock, and its ability to absorb moisture is even more useless.
Of course, Xiao Han would not waste the precious amethyst on a strange stone that was useless like bidding. Unexpectedly, Bai Ji suddenly stood up and stuck to the giant glass in front of the box. Two red lights appeared in his eyes. Through the glass, he actually scanned the strange stone from afar.
In addition to it, some well-informed people are also speculating on the origin of this strange stone.
"Strange, let me think about it..." Bai Ji whispered. Obviously, even it was stumped by this strange stone.
Some people bid one after another, and the price of this strange stone continued to rise, and soon reached eight large amethysts, and the price increase slowed down. Many people were hesitating.
"Ten large amethysts." Suddenly, someone bid in one of the private rooms on the third floor, which shocked many people.
This price has exceeded everyone's estimate of a strange stone. After the price was reported, there was silence around.
"Anyone with ten large amethysts, are there any one who bid higher?"
"Ten large amethysts twice."
No one around bids anymore.
"Ten large amethysts three times..."
When the auctioneer was about to say "the deal", Bai Ji finally felt something and quickly pressed the instrument on the glass.
The blue light on the instrument lit up. When the auctioneer saw the light, the word "deal" behind it was swallowed immediately.
“Do you still need a quote for the box No. 26?”
Bai Ji quickly made a price of eleven large amethyst.
"Eleven large amethysts once." The auctioneer was happy. Of course, she hoped that the higher the price of these treasures, the better.
The private room on the third floor also quickly raised the price and turned into twelve large amethysts.
Bai Ji improved to thirteen large amethyst without hesitation.
Xiao Han looked at Bai Ji and the private room on the third floor. Both sides seemed to have carried it. Every time the offer was a large amethyst. Xiao Han saw it, and was a little scared.
Everyone in the hall calmed down. Seeing the bidding for the No. 26 box on the second floor and No. 53 box on the third floor, the price of this strange stone was rising wildly, and soon broke through the shocking twenty large amethysts.
The artifact like the legendary Dark Iron Sword left over from the Black Iron Age of the legendary Black Iron has only auctioned twenty-six large amethysts. And this strange stone with no real purpose actually exceeded twenty large amethysts, which is indeed shocking.
You know, this strange stone is likely to be a large stone that is useless after being auctioned.
The original owner of this strange stone was so smiling at the price.
When Bai Ji reported twenty-one large amethyst, the No. 53 box on the third floor also remained silent.
At this moment, there were several people sitting in the box, one of which seemed to be very old.
He was wearing a purple robe and his fingers gently tapped the glass.
"Who is in the box No. 26? Do you recognize the origin of this strange stone?" The old man in purple robe was pondering.
"Elder, what is this strange stone?"
Alongside the old man with purple robe, someone asked respectfully and seemed very curious.
The old man in purple robe shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I just vaguely feel that this strange stone is extraordinary, so I want to take a photo back and study it."
These words made several people around him secretly scold their tongues. It turned out that the old man in purple robe had no idea what this strange stone was, but he was a little interested, so he made a quote casually.
"It's just that this strange stone cannot be cut according to the introduction, so it's probably difficult to find anything."
"Well, this is reasonable." After considering it, the old man in purple robe gave up and continued to bid.
Bai Ji spent twenty-one large amethyst to finally capture this strange stone. Many people were in an uproar. Looking at the No. 26 box on the second floor, they all looked surprised.
"Haha." Bai Ji shouted with excitement: "It only cost twenty-one large amethyst. This time it has become more developed. It's right. These guys don't know the origin of this stone at all, so I got it cheap, haha."
Bai Ji laughed proudly, and Xiao Han couldn't help but say, "Bai Ji, who is the origin of this strange stone?"
"Let's talk about it later. Only when you get it first will it be yours." Bai Ji's voice was a little nervous and urgent. It was afraid that something would happen again.
