Heavenly Farmer

Chapter 166- Stand-in

“Xiaochen, what do you think?”

Wang Shuisheng saw Ye Xiaochen’s expression and hurriedly asked.

“I agree with Mr.Feng’s appraisal.”

Ye Xiaochen smiled.

Feng Xifan immediately showed a triumphant smile and couldn’t help stroking his beard.

In his view, it was Ye Xiaochen’s way of showing goodwill.

No matter what, Ye Xiaochen was a top botanist, his goodwill to speak has increased his face.

The Appraisal of the first small dharma artifact was completed.

It was put back on the table near the silver-haired old man.

The second small dharma artifact was brought up.

A tawny wooden qilin.

Lifelike and was exquisitely carved.

After this wooden qilin was brought up, a light fragrance emerged, which felt good to smell.

“It is a home guardian qilin beast. It is said to be made of 300 old year agarwood. After making it, it was put in a special furnace to be baked.”

The silver-haired old man said.

Many people became curious.

Wood should easily burn when put in the furnace, right?

Not to mention this rare timber of agarwood.

“Unexpectedly, the secret furnace fire sealing technique was used on this home guard qilin beast?”

Feng Xifan was very surprised.

“Mr.Feng, what is this secret furnace fire sealing technique?”

Wang Shuisheng asked with curiosity.

“It is also a secret technique that has been lost a long time ago. It was once included in the Mohist heavenly book..”

Feng Xifan said.

“Mohist heavenly book, isn’t that a legend, could it be that it really exists?”

Wang Shisheng became more curious.

“Of course. It is said that there 108 kinds of strange mysteries recorded in the Mohist heavenly book, and each of them is incredible. Unfortunately, this heavenly book has been lost and could only find its mentions in some ancient books.”

Feng Xifan sighed.

The home guard qilin beast finally came to their table.

After Feng Xifan and Wang Shuisheng took a look, Ye Xiaochen also glanced at it.

This home guard qilin beast radiated certain heat, the wood was delicate and the smell was pleasant.

“Mr.Feng, is this wooden qilin authentic?”

Wang Shuisheng asked.

“It is real, only this is used to guard the home and gather wealth.”

Wang Shuisheng was a little tempted, but he knew that this was not his target.

Also, he knew that this kind of small dharma artifact was very precious, and competition for it would be very fierce.

The third small dharma artifact was also brought up.

When people saw it, they were surprised, because this was a scarecrow.

A foot tall, made of straws.

It looked extremely exquisite and delicate.

However, the scarecrow was a little dark, as if it had been years.

“This is a stand-in scarecrow. It was said that the straws have been a hundred years old. It was refined with a special mystery technique so that it could last long and would not rot. Finally, gathering 100 straws the stand-in scarecrow was weaved. It is said that this scarecrow can be used to eliminate the disaster and prevent troubles. As long as using a special sacrificial method the birth data is written on the body of this scarecrow, that person can live a long life, be free from all disease, will not face any disaster and troubles, and even will benefit the person’s family.”

Said the silver-haired old man.

This caused a great shock to the people present on the scene.

Stand-in scarecrow actually was so magical?

They were all superstitious people, otherwise, they would have not gathered here for the private auction.

If the person has a stand-in scarecrow, won’t that person be able to live a long life and be favored by his family?

How many people dream of that?

Everyone’s eyes grew hot.

The only thing to worry, was it real?

This stand-in scarecrow was more attractive than the previous two small dharma artifacts.

“Mr.Feng, is this stand-in scarecrow real?”

Wang Shuisheng saw Feng Xifan was still carefully identifying the scarecrow and hurriedly asked.

“It’s so amazing. It is really very old. The straw hasn’t rotten. I don’t know what kind of techniques were used?”

Feng Xifan didn’t seem to hear anything and muttered to himself.

“Brother, Wang, I can’t identify if this stand-in scarecrow is real or not, but the straw has been preserved using a strange method.”

He suddenly looked up and said.

Wang Shisheng frowned and there was some hesitation.

He was a user, not a collector. He always buys things for its use, and not for a display purpose.

Ye Xiaochen also took a look, when he contacted the scarecrow, he suddenly felt a sense of horror.

It was a strange feeling as if his mind has been pricked by a needle.

He quickly let go.

“Xiaochen, what’s the matter?”

Wang Shuisheng saw Ye Xiaochen’s complexion turning worse, and quickly asked.

“Nothing.”

Ye Xiaochen shook his head.

He looked at the scarecrow and was surprised. Why did this scarecrow give him such a terrible feeling?

Really Strange!

He took a deep breath and touched the scarecrow again. He tried to stay calm and communicate with the scarecrow using his spirit talent.

After a while, he let go of his hand on the scarecrow. His face was a little strange. He touched the scarecrow again but didn’t get the feeling he felt previously.

It was like the scarecrow became ordinary.

However, the information left on the straws of the scarecrow was quite in line with the information of the silver-haired old man.

These straws were a hundred years old.

Merely the feeling he got a few moments ago made him realize that this scarecrow was not a treasure that eliminates disasters, but was an evil object.

Moreover, the information hidden in the straws also gave him some clues.

“Well, everyone should have checked the three small dharma artifacts. Now I will begin the auction.”

The silver-haired man stood up and said.

Everyone ended their private discussions.

The first item to be auctioned was the demon eliminating bottle gourd.

The starting price was 1 million.

Each increase should not be less than one hundred thousand yuan.

Ye Xiaochen was stunned, this price was really expensive.

There was a total of 12 bidders on the scene, all of them were famous tycoons in the Southern province having the wealth of at least several hundred million yuan.

They did not hesitate to bid, and soon the price reached near four million yuan.

When it came to five million yuan, the number of competitors slowly decreased.

Finally, it was only Wang Shuisneg and Cao Xinhong.

Anyone could see that Cao Xinhong was intentionally raising the price.

Wang Shuisheng’s complexion became gloomy.

Cao Xinhong clearly wanted to raise the price.

However, he had to fight, after all, among the three small dharma artifacts, only the demon eliminating bottle gourd was urgently needed by him.

Moreover, Feng Xifan determined this was authentic, so he naturally wanted to get it.

However, currently, Cao Xinhong was stirring the price, even if he wins, he was afraid he might need to spend large amounts of money.

“Seven million.”

Cao Xinhong triumphantly said.

As long as Wang Shusiheng was sad, he felt happy.

Moreover, he had already investigated, Wang Shuisheng requires the power of this demon eliminating bottle gourd.

It was an opportunity to toy with Wang Shuisheng, and he won’t let it go.
