The two then walked through the heavy door of the theater. Unlike the dim scene outside, warm yellow lights instantly flooded in like a tide, lighting up the entire space.
The marble floor has a soft sheen, and the seats are arranged in a trapezoidal shape from top to bottom. The stage is at the bottom and in the middle, visible to all the audience.
However, there is a podium on the stage now, which is where all the auction items will appear tonight.
Xingxiong took Li Xiuyuan to find the seats assigned to them.
There is a small table in front of the seat with an electronic instrument on it, which is responsible for starting the bid and increasing the price.
In addition to this instrument, there was also a sign on the table in front of Xingxiong that read "Heavenly Power of Ghosts and Gods."
How childish! Li Xiuyuan complained silently in his heart.
Li Xiuyuan sat in his seat, and while waiting, he looked at the people who came in one after another calmly.
Some, like Xingxiong, can be seen at first glance as gangsters, with some tattoos showing on their bodies; some look like successful people, wearing exquisitely tailored suits, or rich young men, dressed gorgeously and fashionably, with innate nobility between their eyebrows.
After everyone took their seats, the originally bright lights gradually dimmed, and the entire theater seemed to be shrouded in darkness. Then, a beam of dazzling light hit the center of the stage as accurately as a sharp sword!
"Ladies and gentlemen, gentlemen and villains, welcome to this auction!"
With a voice that sounded a bit like Donald Duck, a duck in a well-tailored suit walked onto the stage in small steps.
It wore a small top hat on its head and held an exquisite microphone in its hand. In Li Xiuyuan's eyes, it looked a little funny.
Yes.
Duck.
It’s not the Libori ancestors who look like ducks, it’s his original appearance, which is a duck!
A duck is hosting an auction! What's going on???
No, some penguins can even rap.
So this is normal?
Li Xiuyuan's hesitation did not stop the other party's action. He picked up the microphone and continued to introduce himself to everyone present.
“I am the host and initiator of this auction.
You can call me...Duck Lord."

Chapter 274 Paintings.
Under the spotlight, Ya Jue raised his little head high, waved his hand, and two of his men brought up a red luxurious chair and placed it behind Ya Jue.
Ya Jue turned around and looked at the chair that was already a little taller than his body. He was silent for a moment and lowered his hand holding the microphone.
He bent his legs slightly and then jumped. Yajue then jumped high enough to reach the handle of the chair and climbed up using his hands and feet.
The duck sitting on the chair couldn't even reach the ground with its short legs.
Ya Jue remained silent, but behind the red curtain, a faint sound of beating could be heard.
"Duck Duke... I haven't heard of him. He's probably not from any of the countries or cities surrounding Longmen."
Looking at Ya Jue's figure, Xing Xiong spoke. When she turned her head, she saw Li Xiuyuan staring at Ya Jue's figure, as if thinking about something, and she couldn't help but ask again.
"Li Xiuyuan, do you know him?"
"No, how could I possibly know this guy? I was just thinking... if this guy went to KFC, no one would pay attention to him, but what about going to Quanjude?"
Li Xiuyuan touched his chin and said casually.
He was naturally very interested in Duck Duke. How could anyone not be interested in a talking duck?
The most important thing is that he has the same type of stand as the emperor... Bah, guys of similar type are rare.
"Ahem, gentlemen, we don't have any kind of opening ceremony here, nor do we have long greetings. I think everyone is more concerned about what we are selling at this auction than the sense of ceremony, right?"
Duck Duke, who was sitting on a large chair, waved his hand, and another of his men came on stage pushing a cart covered with red cloth.
The red cloth on the cart was pulled by gravity, and the outline of a slightly flat and long frame could be seen.
"The first auction item is a painting by Bu Lingjun, the famous painter from Yan Country!
Of course, paintings by celebrities alone will definitely not be included in our auction.
This is the painting that Bu Lingjun exhibited at an art exhibition a few months ago."
Duck Duke introduced it to everyone with a handheld microphone.
"I'm sure those who know the situation have already guessed it. Yes, it's the painting that made many people feel uncomfortable, caused extreme disgust, and was eventually removed from the exhibition.
And everyone present was fortunate enough to see the true appearance of this painting, which was only on display for one afternoon."
After saying that, Duck Duke flapped his wings.
At Ya Jue's signal, the red cloth was lifted to reveal the painting inside.
This is a painting without even a frame. The overall color is white. Its color is not purely pale, but mixed with a very light cold blue, as pale as winter frost, as if it is the light seeping out from the edge of the virtual world.
Looking at it for a long time seems to bring an uncomfortable chill.
The content of the picture is a group of guys whose details are unclear, sharing a... person.
The man who was being eaten was lying on the narrow table in an extremely awkward posture. The table was not even enough to support his entire body. He maintained his upper body in a backward position, but his head was tilted to look upward, not watching the group of guys who were eating him. And on his face... there was a smile, with a strange sense of satisfaction, as if he believed that he had transcended the constraints of the flesh and reached some higher realm.
But in the eyes of bystanders, he is like a ritualized body.
The abdomen was cut open by a sharp blade with the knife still stuck in it. The internal organs were torn out by hand, and the dripping blood was collected in an exquisite cup. The blood overflowed from the cup and spread to the hand of the person holding the cup.
Although the painting depicts a bloody scene, red is not used to represent blood... Instead, this completely irrelevant blue is used. The dislocation of colors further exacerbates the weirdness and discomfort, as if the emotions of everyone in the painting have been taken away... It is as cold and biting as winter, but with a suffocating feeling of loneliness and desertedness.
"The starting price for the Thirty-Man Red Cup is 10 Originium Ingots... Sorry, I forgot you don't use Originium Ingots for transactions here. So the starting price is 50 Longmen Coins. Each bid must be increased by at least 5. The highest bidder wins."
After Ya Jue finished speaking, some people started bidding.
Nothing could attract this wealthy crowd more than a unique painting by a renowned artist.
Being unique and special enough is the value of collection.
Gradually, more people joined the bidding.
Every time someone raises the price, the spotlight shines on them.
When someone raises the price again, the spotlight on the person who raised the price last time will be shifted to the person who is raising the price now.
Duck Lord's little trick is to use the spotlight to materialize the fact that he will be in the spotlight.
I have to say, the effect is pretty good.
"300 million Longmen coins!"
At this time, another bidder raised the price.
But this time, it was a little different. The spotlight was on Duck Duke!
That's the price increase it just offered.
"I forgot to tell you, as the host of the auction, I'm only bidding on behalf of the original owner. If there's something I want, I'll naturally bid for it and compete fairly with everyone."
The Duck Duke spoke slowly, and he seemed to enjoy the feeling of being under the spotlight and being noticed by others.
But this little episode did not affect the subsequent bidding. The price of the painting continued to rise, and Ya Jue also continued to raise the price.
"A despicable price-raising tactic."
Li Xiuyuan commented sharply.
"Fortunately, the people who were scammed were all rich people."
Xingxiong on the side sighed.
"I guess we'll have to fight for a while... I'm going to the bathroom."
After saying that, Li Xiuyuan stood up and walked towards the toilet.
He didn't want to do anything else secretly, he just had to pee urgently.
After using the restroom and washing his hands, Li Xiuyuan saw a sneaky figure at the end of the deserted corridor. It seemed a little familiar...
The other party seemed to notice Li Xiuyuan as well and moved closer to him.
With the moonlight coming through the glass in the corridor, Li Xiuyuan could see the other person clearly, and the other person could also see Li Xiuyuan's appearance clearly with the help of the light from the toilet door.
"Li Xiuyuan?"
Lin Yuxia looked incredulous.
"Lin Yuxia?"
Li Xiuyuan exclaimed in surprise.
"Why are you here?" X2.
……
……
……
……
Why haven't you updated? Because I'm taking the college entrance exam in Ark.
I worked hard all night, always almost passing, and finally copied the refugee version of the strategy to pass 620 (no Xiaoke, no Wendy, and no training of Ela and King of Wild History, what do I have? I only have Ew)
I copied this BV1UQNHeLEvZ (as long as you borrow a wild history king, you can use it, the others are even first-level operators) I didn't train white face, but I changed to refined 1 white iron and added a deceleration to the second skill and still passed it (if you can use 2226 to slow down, it will be faster)

Chapter 275 The finale baby.
The auction was still going on, the spotlights kept moving back and forth on the seats, but Xingxiong just sat there, watching the scene in front of him, like an outsider.
"I'm back. I shouldn't have missed anything important, right?"
Li Xiuyuan came back and sat down again, and asked Xingxiong who was standing beside him.
"There are already three bids on the items, but if it's a seller, then there are none."
"is it?"
Li Xiuyuan nodded, it seemed that he did not miss anything important.
"By the way, Xingxiong, if there's a fight later, will you be implicated?"
After a moment of silence, Li Xiuyuan asked somewhat abruptly.
“I can’t say.
If it only involves me, then it's not a big deal, but this time, I'm here on behalf of our gang, and I need to consider the people within the gang who make a living."
Staring at the auction items, Xingxiong said without turning his head.
In fact, she had anticipated this when Li Xiuyuan went to the toilet. In addition, the fact that Li Xiuyuan was gone for a particularly long time this time further confirmed her guess.
"Yeah……"
Li Xiuyuan nodded.
Are you afraid of being involved with gangs?
Has Xingxiong changed a bit, or is it the responsibilities she bears now that make her make such a choice?
While his thoughts were turning, Li Xiuyuan did not stand up completely. He moved quietly to the seat next to him, or to be more precise, a seat closer to the outer corridor.
"What are you doing?"
