Chapter 155: Auction

Ming Ze didn’t answer, but said ambiguously, “Demons don’t have the ability to distinguish between the stones. I don’t know either. However… I trust your judgment.”
Only human cultivators could tell the difference between Nuwa’s stone. Monsters and ordinary humans couldn’t tell the difference.
Ji Jing nodded. However, based on her understanding of Ming Ze, his ambiguous attitude was telling her that she had made the right judgment. It was just that Ming Ze couldn’t say it directly.
Perhaps this was the characteristic of the Baize clan. They always knew a lot and said very little.
Since Ming Ze didn’t want to explain further, Ji Jing didn’t ask. She turned her attention to another matter. “Ming Ze, is this private room yours?”
Even the Ji family could only stay in the venue downstairs. Why did Ming Ze have a private room with such a good view? Did he actually receive such high treatment in the human world?
Ming Ze explained casually,”lt’s not mine. I just happened to know the organizer and borrowed their room.”
“I see.” Ji Jing was enlightened.
Ming Ze’s gaze turned to the French window. “The auction has begun.”
However, this action was a little deliberate, as if he was changing the topic.
Ji Jing’s attention also fell on the auction house. The first painting was being auctioned. Unexpectedly, the pace of a professional auction was very fast. The auctioneer changed the bid in a few seconds, and the price reached the target price in a few seconds.
Because it was a charity auction, there were not many people who would bid at the bottleneck price. The auctioneer quickly made the final decision and continued to bid for the next item.
Ji Jing paid special attention to a few auction items. They were all the auction items on the page of the brochure in Ji Jing’s hand when Ji Yao came back to look for her. Ji Jing tried to bid a few times.
As expected, Ji Yao quickly followed suit.
The guests all had their own number tags and used them to bid. Ji Yao and Ji Ying didn’t know Ji Jing’s number tag, so Ji Ying didn’t know that Ji Yao was raising Ji Jing’s price.
This method of raising the price was exactly what Ji Jing had expected. Ji Yao had indeed noticed the auction item that she was paying attention to. Even if she didn’t know her number plate now, she would still raise the price blindly.
Ji Yao’s targeting was too obvious, and Ji Jing found it funny.
Fortunately, she had the foresight to change the page of the brochure. Ji Yao raised the price for items that she didn’t want, but Ji Jing didn’t care.
“Yaoyao, do you know where Ji Jing went?” Ji Ying asked. “Wasn’t this girl thinking about coming to the auction? Why was she nowhere to be seen now?”
“I saw Sister Jing Jing leave with a man just now…Like President Lin.” Ji Yao said obediently. She bid for another item that Ji Jing had taken a fancy to, but she felt a little unhappy.
Did Ji Jing really want these? Why did she feel that something was wrong?
“You mean Lin Han? How did Ji Jing know him?” Ji Ying frowned. Ji Jing knew Lin Han?
These two people looked like they were completely unrelated, so how could they know each other?
Ji Ying took out his phone and sent a message to Ji Jing: Where are you? The auction is starting. Aren’t you coming?
Ji Jing, on the other hand, replied readily: “I’ll be on the set. Don’t worry about it. You guys just shoot.”
Soon, it was Ji Jing’s turn to bid for the stone.
To humans, this was just an ordinary and beautiful small stone. As expected, no one bid for it. Ji Jing easily bought this stone at a price close to the base price.
Ji Jing saw the hammer in the auctioneer’s hand fall, and the beautiful piece of rain flower stone had confirmed its new owner. Only then did she relax.
“Mingze, what is the use of Nuwa’s stone to the land owner?”Ji Jing tugged at Ming Ze’s sleeve.” Can you say that?”
Most immortals had existed for a very long time. There were very few people who could come into contact with gods, and there were even fewer records left behind. Not to mention that the local god had a half-god, half-demon Dao physique.
Although Ji Jing could tell that this stone was unusual, she still had no idea how to use it.
Ming Ze: ” This stone contains the power of Nüwa. Due to the principle of balance between heaven and earth, it is just an ordinary stone to most living beings. Only one kind of living beings will need it-those who are about to become gods..”
