Chapter 921
After speaking, Gu Ming took out the crystal skull from the box.
“Wow!”
All of a sudden, the people underneath became agitated.
This crystal skull can be said to be really dazzling, so crystal clear, giving people a very special feeling.
Seeing this crystal skull, Sheldon’s eyes were also full of amazing colors.
The four people did not expect to see such a good treasure in such a remote place.
“Crystal Skull, the starting price is 4 million, and each bid must not be less than 1 million. Now the bidding starts!”
With Gu Ming’s order, the auction officially began.
“five million!”
At this time, a man took the initiative to raise his hand and shout.
“Six million!”
Immediately afterwards, another man shouted, raising the price by another million.
It can be said that these people really spend money like water, and this one million call is not at all distressing.
“Seven million, don’t grab anyone from me!”
A man with glasses stood up and shouted loudly, as if he was bound to win.
But this is a bidding, not a renqinghui, who will care about him.
Bidding is to get the final item if the bid is higher.
“Get out of here, I’ll pay eight million!”
A fat man glared at the man wearing glasses and cursed, directly raising the price by one million again.
Soon, the price of the crystal skull has exceeded ten million yuan.
These people at the scene are really crazy.
“Let me go, these people are too crazy, really don’t use money as money, spend so much money to buy a skull?”
Lei Lie also exclaimed in surprise at this time, his face was full of surprise.
“Hehe, we don’t understand the rich world!”
Sheldon said with a faint smile.
Sheldon is not interested in these, he will not be so stupid to spend ten million to buy a crystal skull, and he can’t spend money like that.
In the end, this crystal skull was photographed by the man with eyes at a high price of 15 million.
“Congratulations to this gentleman, for successfully photographing our crystal skull with a high price of 15 million!”
Gu Ming also praised the man wearing glasses.
Suddenly, this man with glasses enjoyed the admiration of everyone, feeling extremely proud and arrogant. This is the effect that the rich want most.
“Let’s go, nothing good!”
After it was over, Sheldon ordered Lei Lie’s trio.
The four left the black market together.
After leaving the black market, the four of them continued to stroll around the town.
After a while, I saw that the man with glasses who had photographed the crystal skull appeared in front of Sheldon’s eyes.
“Brother Chen, isn’t that the one who photographed the crystal skull?”
Lei Lie quickly reminded Sheldon.
Sure enough, it was indeed the man with glasses.
The man was walking fast, his expression was very anxious, as if he was afraid of being noticed and paying attention.
“Go, follow up and see!”
Sheldon felt that things would not be so simple, and immediately preached, and then followed with Lei Lie and the three.
Soon, the four of Sheldon followed this man with glasses to a house.
The man with glasses looked around and walked in, then he did not forget to close the door.
“You wait for me here, I’ll go up and see!”
Sheldon gave orders to the three of them, then jumped up and jumped directly onto the house.
Sheldon lay on the roof and looked at the inner courtyard.
I saw the man with glasses standing in the yard talking with the man in the fur coat who was auctioned just now, that is, Gu Ming. The two seemed to be discussing something.
However, in the next second, a scene that shocked Sheldon happened.
Gu Ming took out a dagger from his clothes and pierced it directly into the chest of the man with glasses.
Suddenly, the man with glasses fell into a pool of blood and died of anger. He didn’t even close his glasses when he died. He really didn’t look at him.
After killing the man with glasses, Gu Ming wiped his dagger with the cloth he carried and put it back in his clothes.
Then, Gu Ming called to the house.
Two men came out of the house.
“Dispose of the dead body!”
Gu Ming gave an order to the two men.
The two men immediately nodded their heads, then lifted the body of the man with glasses and put it in a sack.
Sheldon showed all this in his eyes. He didn’t expect this black market boss Gu Ming to be so cruel.
This is exactly the rhythm of crossing the river to demolish the bridge.
First, I took money from others, didn’t give them anything, and killed them. It’s really inhuman.
At this time, Sheldon thought again in his heart: “What the hell is going on in this world?”
Why are people so inhumane now?
You said that it’s fine if you take the money. Is it not good to give things to others and keep them alive? I have to rush to kill to do such a conscienceless thing.
But Sheldon also felt fortunate in his heart.
Fortunately, when he was on the black market just now, he did not choose to go to auction, otherwise he would be the one who died.
Afterwards, Sheldon got off the roof and returned to Zhen Ji’s side.
“how about it?”
Zhen Ji asked Sheldon curiously.
“The man with glasses is dead!”
Sheldon spoke directly.
“Dead…dead? What’s the matter?”
Lei Lie asked with a look of surprise.
“It was killed by the boss of the black market, that is, the guy named Gu Ming!”
Sheldon recounted, and then said everything he had just seen.
Lei Lie and the three people were really shocked when they heard this, and they couldn’t believe that the black market boss Gu Ming was such a black-hearted person.
“Didn’t it mean that he killed a lot of people, and those who auctioned off with him died!”
Zhen Ji also responded quickly, and she immediately thought of something.
Sheldon also nodded.
“Yes, there is a possibility that these people are killing people and making money!”
Sheldon said very firmly.
“Too hateful!”
Lei Lie also scolded angrily.
But Sheldon had nothing to do with the four. They couldn’t save the man with glasses, and Sheldon could only watch the man with glasses die in Gu Ming’s hands.
“Okay, let’s go, it is not suitable to stay here for long!”
After another while, Sheldon reminded the three Zhen Ji.
Now it seems that this town of Five Elements is not a good place, there are many insidious existences, it is better to leave here early.
After speaking, the four immediately turned and left.
But seeing the sky is already going to darken, Sheldon and the four have no choice but to find a hotel in the town to live in.
The hotels in Wuxing Town are different from the outside world, they are all similar to the ancient inns.
The four of Sheldon found a humble inn and lived in.
Chapter 922
“Boss, stay in the shop, four people, two rooms!”
Sheldon walked in and preached to the shop owner.
The boss glanced at the four of Sheldon, and then asked, “Where are you from?”
When they heard the boss’ question, the four of Sheldon were stunned.
“Um, we are here to play, from Qixia City!”
Sheldon faintly smiled and replied.
After hearing this, the boss also nodded, and did not ask any more questions.
“Here, here are your room keys, the two rooms are in the second floor corridor to the end!”
The boss said to Sheldon.
“Okay, thank you boss!”
Sheldon took the key, and then thanked the boss.
The four immediately walked upstairs.
When I came upstairs, I walked to the two rooms at the bottom of the corridor. One room belonged to Zhen Ji and Zhou Nuo, and the other room belonged to Sheldon and Lei Lie. Of course, men and women had to be separated.
After entering the room, Sheldon closed the door.
“Brother Chen, have you noticed that the people in this town have very strange expressions to outsiders? The boss just looked at us with something wrong.”
Lei Lie immediately told Sheldon.
“Well, I also found out. I guess this boss is not a good person. Let’s be more careful. At night you go to bed first, I will be on guard, and then you will change guard with me at night.”
Of course, Sheldon also discovered the problem Lei Lie said, and immediately made a countermeasure to preach.
“okay!”
Of course Lei Lie didn’t have any opinions at all, but it was all for his own life.
“Boom boom boom!”
At this time, the door of Sheldon’s room was knocked.
“Who?”
Sheldon immediately asked vigilantly.
“It’s me, boss, bring you some boiling water!”
Just listen to the boss’s voice outside the door.
Upon hearing this, Sheldon and Lei Lie looked at each other at the same time.
After that, Sheldon gave Lei Lie a wink, and Lei Lie immediately understood, walked to the door and opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, the boss walked in with a kettle and put it on the table.
After the boss walked in, he smiled at the two Sheldon.
“Boss, you are really sweet, give us hot water!”
Sheldon pretended to smile and thanked the boss.
“Hehe, it’s okay, it should be, by the way, you’d better not go out at night. It’s not safe to go outside at night, just stay in your room!”
Then the boss reminded both Sheldon.
When Sheldon and Lei Lie heard this, they immediately looked at each other, and at the same time showed a puzzled expression, not understanding what the boss meant.
“old..”
“Okay, boss, we see, thank you for your reminder!”
As soon as Lei Lie wanted to ask the reason, Sheldon took a step ahead.
“Hmm, it’s okay, you can just call me at the door if you have any needs!”
The boss also nodded in response, and then left Sheldon’s room.
Sheldon watched the boss go downstairs, and then safely closed the door.
“Brother Chen, you just…”
As soon as the door closed, Lei Lie looked at Sheldon in surprise.
“Lei Lie, don’t be so blunt next time. Some things are hard to ask.”
Sheldon reminded Lei Lie.
Lei Lie also nodded clearly, “Okay, Brother Chen, I understand.”
“But Brother Chen, what do you think of this boss? Is he a bad guy?”
Then Lei Lie asked Sheldon again. He always felt that the boss had a problem, but he couldn’t tell where there was a problem, which made him wonder.
“I don’t know, but I think there must be something wrong with this boss. There must be an unknown secret. The eyes I looked at him kept looking around our room, as if looking for something.”
Sheldon shook his head slightly and said.
He felt that the boss must have a problem, especially the words the boss said just now.
Tell them not to go out at night, saying that it is not safe outside.
Although these words seem to be a kind reminder to Sheldon, they actually seem to be giving a special signal.
The more the boss said this, the more it made Sheldon and the two men interested and curious.
Therefore, it is estimated that all this will only be known at night.
“Go, let’s go to your Miss Zhen’s room!”
Afterwards, Sheldon proposed to Lei Lie.
After speaking, the two opened the door cautiously, and then walked to the door of Zhen Ji’s room opposite.
“Boom boom boom!”
Sheldon knocked on the door of Zhen Ji’s room.
“Who?”
Sure enough, the same as Sheldon’s reaction, Zhen Ji’s vigilant voice came from inside.
“It’s me, Sheldon!”
Sheldon immediately responded.
A few seconds later, Zhen Ji opened the door.
“what happened?”
Zhen Ji looked at Sheldon and Lei Lie and asked.
“Go in and say!”
Sheldon did not say directly, but led Lei Lie into their room.
I saw Zhou Nuo sitting on the bed and watching TV.
“What happened?”
Zhen Ji knew that Sheldon must have something to say when she arrived, so she asked directly.
“Lei Lie and I agree that the boss has a problem, so you will clean up and go to our room to sleep and make this room vacant.”
Sheldon looked at Zhen Ji’s proposal.
“You mean to use this room as a bait to test the boss’s tricks, right!”
Zhen Ji is also very smart, and immediately understood Sheldon’s thoughts.
“Yes!”
Sheldon nodded firmly.
“Okay, then I’ll listen to you, let’s clean up and wash and go to your side!”
Zhen Ji agreed to preach without any comments.
After the explanation, Sheldon took Lei Lie back to their room.
About ten minutes later, Zhen Ji and Zhou Nuo came to Sheldon’s room.
Four people sleep in a room, this is a bit of insurance.
After all, if the two women live in the same room, there is definitely a big risk. If the boss is not a good person and wants to move his mind, it is really bad.
Although Zhen Ji is a cultivator and possesses strength, she may use any special methods to deal with them.
“Okay, let you two women sleep on the bed. I sit with Lei Lie and sleep at the table. At night, Lei Lie and I will take turns on duty. We will notify you as soon as there is any movement!”
Sheldon looked at Zhen Ji and said.
After speaking, Sheldon and Lei Lie sat at the table.
Zhen Ji and Zhou Nuo lay down on the bed.
This night is destined to be a sleepless night.
Until the middle of the night, the whole outside was quiet, there was no movement at all, not even the sound of birds, giving people a very terrifying feeling.
“Da da da..”
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps coming from outside the door.
After hearing the footsteps, Sheldon and Lei Lie immediately became vigilant.
