Chapter 1090 The Helm of the Four Evils
After a while, all the people who were supposed to come in came in. Bing Zhixie looked at everyone, and Linda was not among them. The people who came in were also asking each other what questions the host asked. Bing Zhixie listened carefully to the conversation between the two people behind him.
One of them asked: "Hey, what question were you asked just now?"
The other said: "He asked me what the meaning of magic is, and I answered that magic is power. With powerful magic, you have the power to handle everything."
"So you came in?"
"Yeah, what about you?"
The former person said: "He asked me what the relationship between man and society should be, and I said what the relationship should be."
The other person haha He smiled and said, "Is that okay with you?"
"I think so, too." Ridiculous, don’t you think it’s weird that he asked us, treating us as children and students in the academy?”
Listening to the exchanges among the people, Bing Zhixie said secretly: “It seems that the seller of these treasures is not for this purpose. Selling treasures for money, eh, interesting.”
Not long after, the host and three appraisers who appraised the treasures came in. Bingzhixie saw that one of them was the Sultan, and thought that the imperial master of Disman was really respected. There were so many appraisers just now, and among the three appraisers who came in, He is the youngest.
After the host and the others came in, they sat in the middle of the front, forming a circle with the people on the left and right sides of the room. There was a small marble platform in the middle of the space, obviously waiting for the treasure to appear. For placement.
The host said: "There are twenty-one bidders in total. You 21 people will be eligible to compete for these five treasures."
Someone asked: " Why are those questions asked to select who is eligible to bid, and what are the standard answers to those questions? "This man asked because he had friends who were left out and were unhappy.
The host said: "I asked a total of thirty questions. These questions were given to me by the seller in advance. I don't know if there are standard answers to these questions." He raised a pendant in his hand. Jewelry said: "I know who's answer satisfies the seller, and this ornament will light up."
"It turns out that the seller was just nearby listening to our answer. So the seller of these five treasures is the same person?"
"I can't say this, you can guess it yourself." The host said: "Now The last auction was completely different from the previous ones. This one was still based on bidding, but this time it was a bidding process. It doesn’t necessarily mean that the highest bidder wins.”
“What do you mean?”
The host said: “This bidding is a no-reserve bidding. You will have to quote your own price later. , but also to answer a question ”
“Another question!”
The host said: "You are facing the same problem. Whoever's answer satisfies the seller will try to tell me. The seller said that he wants to choose the owner of these treasures that is truly suitable for it, so your bid may not be high. , but it is still possible to obtain treasures.”
“Let’s get started, what are you waiting for?”
As he said this, a door opened on the wall behind the three appraisers. It's not a dead room, there's a dark room in the back. A waitress came out of the dark room and came to the stage holding a covered treasure.
"This is the first of the five treasures, the Helmet of the Four Evils!" The cover was removed, and a four-sided helmet with four expressions appeared on the stage.
An appraiser stood up and said: "Everyone knows that people have five emotions: happiness, sadness, anger, fear, and disgust. Among these five basic human emotions, negative emotions account for four, and This helmet of the four evils is the extreme expression of these four negative emotions. The red side represents anger in the human heart; the gray side represents sadness; the cyan side represents disgust; and the black side represents fear. When this helmet is worn on the head, which color is worn on the front will affect the negative emotions in the human mind. We all agree that this is the disadvantage of this helmet, but four. The evil helmet has a very special place. Each of its mask expressions has a special ability. The stronger the negative emotions these abilities correspond to in your heart, the stronger the effect it will produce."
Some people were surprised: "Ah, there is such a treasure?"
A mage said: "Maybe it is because this piece of equipment incorporates spiritual and emotional theories that it produces such a magical effect."
The host handed out a piece of information to everyone: "This is brief information about the Helm of the Four Evils. I think the recipient of such a precious treasure does not want others to know too much about it. Some detailed information , the winner can get it after the meeting, Of course, these detailed information may not be fully known by the appraisers.”
Bing Zhixie couldn’t help but feel excited when looking at the brief information on this document. It could also be seen from the unclear information above. The Helm of the Four Evils is really a rare and good treasure. It’s no wonder that Tiantang Tower will put this treasure at the very end. Speaking of which, Bing Zhixie feels that this high-end treasure, the Helmet of the Four Evils, is more expensive than the previous ones. The artifact that came out was better, at least that's what he thought.
Others also have great expectations for this Helm of the Four Evils. They are all powerful people, and powerful people often mean people who know the goods. They understand whether a treasure is good or bad, and even if they are not as knowledgeable as appraisers, they can still judge it from brief information. "Although this helmet is a bit ugly and does not suit my style and identity, it is indeed a good treasure. Hurry up and bid, I have no patience to wait any longer." A man with a proud look raised his hands with ambition , the bouncing feet have shown his impatience.
"No rush." The host said: "As I said, the bidding for these five treasures is not determined by money. You have to answer a question raised by the seller. If no one answers If the seller is satisfied with the answer, then there will be no winner for the Helmet of the Four Evils."
"Tell me what the title is."
"Although I don't want to play a kid's quiz game, for the sake of this helmet, please tell me your question."
The host said: "The question is very simple. Why are there only one positive emotion and four negative emotions among the five basic human emotions? ”
A middle-aged man wondered: "This... what is the problem? Isn't the problem too outrageous?"
"Yes." A thin man said: "What happiness, anger, sadness, disgust , Fear, this is an innate emotion, why? I don’t know why, this question should be asked to God.”
The host pressed his hand: “I didn’t ask the question. It’s time to find me, but of course you can’t find the seller. If you’re not interested in answering, just give up. Those who want to answer will write their quotations and answers on a paper card on their sofa, sign their names and give it to me. "
"Signed? Isn't it anonymous?"
The host said: "Don't worry, it won't be disclosed, because I won't read it."< br>
Bing Zhixie found a pen and paper card on the sofa. After thinking for a while, he was ready to pick up the pen to write, but stopped before he could write two words. This question is indeed difficult to answer, or I don’t know how to answer it. Happiness, sadness, anger, fear, and disgust are innate to human beings. Not to mention humans, many animals and monsters have these five emotions. Although humans also have secondary emotions such as melancholy and excitement, they are all derived from These five basic emotions. Bing Zhixie really couldn't answer why only one of the five major emotions was positive and four were negative.
After thinking for a long time, Bing Zhixie couldn't answer. In the end, he just wrote "I don't know", then quoted a price of 20 million and handed it to the maid who brought out the treasure.
Everyone handed over their answers one after another, and people who knew each other began to ask each other how to answer. The maid returned to the dark room at the back with all the answers. After a while, she came out and quietly said a word to the host.
The host sighed and said: "I apologize, the first bid did not satisfy the seller, so this treasure was not sold."
A strong man at the scene immediately said Angry, he patted the sofa and stood up: "Are you kidding? Are you kidding us? You let us play with you all night, and now we are playing this kind of kid's question and answer game. Asshole, I won't play anymore. Return the money to me.”
The host did not panic or fear at all: "Gentleman, please calm down. The qualification fee you paid is the commission for our Paradise Building. It will not be refunded. If you are not willing to bid, you can leave. If you still want to continue bidding below Please sit down."
"You...!"
A person next to him pulled him and said: "Forget it, sit down and take a look. Let’s talk about the treasure later.”
Another one chuckled: “I think this kind of bidding is quite interesting. It’s a fun game, and at least it won’t let precious treasures fall into the hands of incompetent people. "
The strong man's anger that had just subsided was ignited again. He pointed at the young man who was speaking and cursed: "Damn it, who are you calling incompetent? "
The young man was still leaning lazily on the sofa: "Of course I am talking about you, and all of us. No one can give a satisfactory answer to the owner of the treasure. Naturally, he thinks that none of us are worthy of having this treasure, isn't it? "
"You!" The strong man stared at him fiercely: "Wait, come out. Go and I will make you look good!"
The host glanced at the two of them: "Please sit down and start bidding for the second treasure."
The maid held up another one. A treasure, but this treasure was packed in a wooden box. When you opened it, it turned out to be a green dragon scale cloak.
At this time, another appraiser said: "This dragon scale cloak is made of the dragon wings of a young green dragon. It looks wide, but is actually very light, so we call it It is a dragon wing robe. This dragon wing robe is made from a complete dragon wing and completely retains the magic immunity of the dragon during his lifetime. It has been identified by us. No magic under three rounds can break through its immune effect, and four rounds of super magic will be greatly reduced on it. Moreover, it is also made with a special process, retaining the magic ability possessed by the dragon, which means that when a mage casts spells. It makes your magic stronger."
