Seeing Lin Yang staring at the stone sculpture on the auction table, Ma Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "What, can this stone sculpture be used to make amulets?"

In his understanding, even if the amulet is not made of yellow paper with rune patterns written on it, it should be made of materials such as gold and jade. I have never heard of it, and stone sculptures can be used as amulets.

Moreover, the size of this stone sculpture is as big as a watermelon, and the weight is probably thirty or forty kilograms. Even if it is made into a talisman, it is not convenient to carry, right? Should it be necessary to cut it into small pieces first and then make a talisman?

Ma Xiaofeng, who was puzzled, began to carefully look at the stone sculpture placed on the auction table.

Although the surface is covered with moss, and some things like corals have grown. However, its overall shape and appearance have not been damaged. Instead, it has been protected due to long-term soaking in the depths of the seabed.

Judging from the carved appearance, this should be a statue of a stone lion. However, unlike an ordinary stone lion, this stone lion actually has nine heads. And the movements and expressions of each head are different. They either grin or get angry with their eyebrows... they are lifelike, like a living thing.

"What kind of lion is this? How come there are nine heads?" Ma Xiaofeng asked curiously.

If Xiao Jun was still alive and came here to attend the auction and saw this stone lion statue with nine heads, she would definitely find that this nine-headed stone lion statue was exactly the same as the nine-headed lion that the immortal rode on Lin Yang when she had hallucinations.

Perhaps because he finally waited for what he wanted, Lin Yang was in a good mood at this moment. He turned around and said with a smile: "San Uncle, it seems that you need to watch "Journey to the West" again."

Ma Xiaofeng was stunned and stunned: "Why is it related to "Journey to the West" again?"

Lin Yang explained: "Because in "Journey to the West", this nine-headed lion appeared, and it was quite powerful, allowing Sun Wukong to escape when he heard the sound. So much so that in many people's eyes, it is even the most powerful monster in "Journey to the West", which is the Jiuling Yuansheng, and the mount of Taiyi's Ku Tianzun."

Ma Xiaofeng smiled twice, scratched his head, and said embarrassedly: "Ah... it turns out that this is a stone statue of Jiuling Yuansheng. I said why do you look familiar?"

Just as the two were whispering to each other, the auctioneer on the auction table also began to introduce the situation of the Nine Spirit Yuansheng stone statue while using a projector to place the photos: "I believe everyone has seen "Journey to the West"? This stone lion statue with nine heads is the Nine Spirit Yuansheng in "Journey to the West", and is also the mount of Taiyi Ku Tianzun. Judging from the carving process, this Nine Spirit Yuansheng is definitely a product of the collection of stone sculpture art in the Southern Song Dynasty. The patterns are meticulous, the expression is real, and lifelike.

Lifelike, according to the staff who salvaged the wreck, this Jiuling Yuansheng stone statue was salvaged from the room of a large merchant on the ship. At that time, a lot of exquisite porcelain, jade and gold and silver were fished out in that room. But if it were stone sculptures, it was just one. It is not difficult to see that this stone sculpture has a high status and weight in the mind of the great merchant. Otherwise, he would not have brought this stone sculpture with him when he went to the Philippines to join the business..."

Hearing this, Lin Yang suddenly shook his head and muttered in a low voice: "I'm wrong."

He said this very little, and no one else heard it except Ma Xiaofeng sitting beside him.

"Wrong? What's wrong?" Ma Xiaofeng asked in confusion.

"This auctioneer was wrongly introduced." Lin Yang said: "This Nine Spirit Yuan Saint Image was not carved by man. Its appearance is born."

Ma Xiaofeng was shocked and almost screamed. Fortunately, he had a strong self-control ability, so he forced his scream back to his mouth. Then he lowered his voice and asked in disbelief: "You said the appearance of this stone statue is born? How could you see it as lifelike? If it was born, how could it be so delicate?"

Lin Yang smiled and explained: "My third uncle, there is an old saying that "the world is full of wonders. Believe me, this Nine Spirit Yuan Sacred Image is definitely naturally generated rather than artificially carved. The spiritual energy in its body is pure and abundant, presenting a kind of innate image. This situation will only appear if the stone has not been carved by others."

"It's really incredible..." Ma Xiaofeng sighed with a shaking head.

At the same time, the auctioneer also introduced the situation of the Jiuling Yuan Saint Stone Statue and held a small wooden hammer to announce the bidding: "This Jiuling Yuan Saint Stone Statue has a minimum price of 100,000 yuan. Each bidding range must not be less than 5,000 yuan. If you like it, you should seize the opportunity and bid immediately. Such a lifelike and exquisitely carved stone statue is not only unprecedented, but also quite rare. Once you miss it, it will be useless to regret it..."

Not to mention, this auctioneer is still somewhat capable. Under his deception, many people at the scene became interested in this Nine Spirit Yuan Saint Stone statue and began to bid for auction.

However, although there are many people who are interested, the price of this Jiuling Yuansheng Stone Statue has not increased too high. After all, the value of stone sculptures is much lower than that of porcelain, jade, gold and silver, and even copper. Unless it has historical background, the price will not be too high.

Although this Nine Spirit Yuan Saint Stone Statue is lifelike, it is not something that has been famous in history. Therefore, the bidding enthusiasm of everyone is not so high.

Seeing that the price of the Nine Spirit Yuan Saint statue slowly climbed to 160,000 yuan, Lin Yang finally raised the bidding sign in his hand and shouted out the price he gave for the first time in this auction: "200,000 yuan".

Seeing that the price suddenly increased by 40,000, no longer increased by 5,500 like before, the auctioneer's interest also rose, and his voice suddenly increased by several decibels: "Twenty-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-hundred-

Lin Yang suddenly increased the price to 200,000 yuan, which made many people choose to give up. After all, for most people, spending 200,000 yuan to buy a stone carving that is only the size of a watermelon seems a bit worthwhile.

But some people are still interested in this Nine Spirit Yuan Saint Stone statue, and even raise the price by 50,000 more, trying to scare Lin Yang away: "I'll pay 250,000."

"This gentleman bids 250,000 yuan, is there a higher price?" The auctioneer was excited and thought that this auction finally had a little smell of gunpowder. As long as there is gunpowder, the atmosphere can be stir-fried up and the Nine Spirit Yuan Saint Stone Statue was sold at a good price.

However, before the auctioneer could take out his skills, Lin Yang directly doubled the price: "500,000"

Five hundred thousand?

For a moment, there were whispers in the auction venue.

For those present, 500,000 is nothing. But it is not cost-effective to spend 500,000 to buy a stone statue. So, they were all wondering who would spend 500,000 to buy a stone the size of a watermelon? Is this not good at it? Or is it really that much money is so high that there is nowhere to spend it?

"Forget it, the price is too high and not worth it." The person who wanted to compete with Lin Yang for this stone statue also chose to give up after a brief hesitation.

Although he liked this stone statue very much, he had to spend 500,000 yuan to buy it, but he was a little reluctant.

After all, for 500,000 yuan, you can already buy a good piece of jade or a good antique porcelain. No matter how you look at it, it is better than buying a stone carving the size of a watermelon, right?

Since no one continued to bid, the auctioneer no longer wasted time and directly rang the small wooden hammer in his hand, announcing that the Nine Spirit Yuan Saint stone statue belonged to Lin Yang.

Du Junxi, who was sitting next to him, finally couldn't help but sneer and said sarcastically: "I actually spent 500,000 yuan to buy a stone statue...Mr. Lin, your vision is really unique? No wonder the manager had such a good attitude towards you just now. A high-ranking customer like you is indeed the auctioneer's favorite customer."

He bought antiques such as gold and jade for Fang Jingyu before, while Lin Yang spent 500,000 yuan to buy a stone. This made him feel very grateful for himself. At least he thought that he was better than Lin Yang in antiques and jade. So at this moment, he had the confidence to show off in front of Lin Yang.

The previous experience made Lin Yang have no favors for Du Junxi. At this moment, seeing him jump out to get hatred, Lin Yang was too lazy to talk nonsense to him and threw it over with one sentence: "It is hard to buy your heart if you have money. I like this stone sculpture. As long as you can buy it, it doesn't matter no matter how much money you spend, let alone buy it for only 500,000 yuan. It's so worth it. Besides, I just have money, I just like to spend it randomly. How about it? If you have the ability, if you have money, you will spend it like me..."

"You..." Du Junxi was choked by his words, her face turned pale and blue, and her whole body was trembling with anger. She wanted to refute, but she didn't know what to say. In the end, he could only endure this tone and almost caused her internal injuries.

After buying the Nine Spirit Yuan Saint Stone Statue, Lin Yang's purpose of attending the auction today was achieved. However, he did not rush to leave, but continued to stay here.

Because he wanted to see if there were any other auction items in the auction, like this Nine Spirit Yuan Holy Stone statue, which was eye-catching.

The auction is going on in an orderly manner.

Suddenly, the mysterious man in the box sat upright, staring at the auction table with bright eyes, and whispered excitedly: "It's finally here."
