Chapter 33 Millennium Snow Lotus
He lifted the curtain and found that there was really a hole in it. Su Qingxue couldn't help but be surprised. Although it was previously considered to be the largest and most prosperous underground auction venue in the imperial city, which may be more luxurious and exquisite than ordinary venues, due to the limitations of the times, Su Qingxue naturally did not think of it as magnificent.
How to know that a curtain is separated, and the magnificence behind it leaves Su Qingxue with only amazement.
After the curtain, the suddenly bright vision suddenly formed a great contrast. Surrounded by all kinds of exquisite palace lamps, shining on the golden wall, it is even more golden. The lights are bright, shining the originally closed room like a day.
The four-storey suspended attic surrounds the middle, standing tall and magnificent. Each floor of the attic is separated by a curtain. The whole attic is decorated with gold paint, and even the stair handrails leading to the pavilion are carved into a crane head, which is quite exquisite and elegant. The auction platform in the middle is two stories high, and the surroundings are specially highlighted. The red carpet is spread on the floor and surrounded by flowers.
"The prince, the maidservant is called the little slave, and this time he specially serves the prince for bidding. Please follow me here."
A charming female voice interrupted Su Qingxue's stunnedness. When she raised her eyes, the doorkeeper who led the way had been replaced by a charming little lady.
Is this an eye-catching and intimate service, a one-on-one maid service? The idea is quite avant-garde!
However, it is really the largest underground auction venue in the imperial city. Such a magnificent momentum, coupled with the mysterious but eye-catching maid-style service, why don't those rich brothers flock to it! No wonder the entrance fee is 1,000 taels high, and the business is so good!
"Please follow me upstairs to the elegant room. Please be careful of the steps."
Su Qingxue followed the little slave to the elegant room upstairs, and the elegant room was facing the auction platform.
"Son, please wait a moment. After a cup of tea, the auction will begin. Please use tea."
A cup of clear tea was handed over by the jade finger, and the tea was fragrant and fragrant.
Su Qingxue nodded to the little slave and motioned her to put it down. Then he began to look around the whole auction site.
At this time, officials and nobles have appeared one after another, and the beautiful clothes and golden clothes are so dazzling.
The whole auction site is cleverly designed to be surrounded by a ring, and each elegant design can face the towering bidding platform in the center. And there are several curtains between the elegant rooms, which will not have the thick and dull feeling of the walls, but also maintain a certain degree of privacy with each other. The design is indeed quite exquisite and unique.
After a while, the rare treasure auction ceremony officially began. The whole auction venue immediately quieted down, and I saw a beautiful woman in purple in the center of the auction venue, standing gracefully and began to host the auction activities in an orderly manner. Seeing the rare treasures begin to be carried up one by one, as big as ten thousand-year-old blood coral, tiger leather leopard skin, century-old ginseng, as small as gold hairpin silver hairpin, Buddha bead bracelet.
Although these auction items vary in size and weight, they are rare treasures. Various bidders are scrambling to bid, ranging from hundreds to thousands of taels, or even tens of thousands of taels. The auction scene was so lively, and the paper was full of gold and silver tickets.
However, Su Qingxue has been watching coldly and silent. When the accompanying little slave saw that Su Qingxue was quite indifferent to the auction products and was unwilling to bid silently, he asked quietly:
"Look, the prince doesn't seem to be very interested in this. Are these auctions not in line with him?"
Su Qingxue looked slightly and looked indifferent.
"Indeed, so far, no."
"Don't be impatient. There is another treasure to be displayed at the end today. Maybe you will like it then."
The little slave smiled and his eyes stopped in the center of the auction platform.
At this time, the woman in purple coughed and cleared her throat and whispered:
"Please be quiet, this is the last rare treasure of this rare treasure auction. This treasure can be said to be met but not sought. Please wait and see.
The woman in purple raised her jade hand gently, and saw four little slaves carefully carrying a wooden treasure box to the hall.
The treasure box is carved very exquisitely, and the crane body is hollow and carved, which is lifelike. The pattern next to it is a gold-carved jade bracelet, which looks extraordinary. What's more surprising is that the wooden treasure box still seems to be covered with a layer of mist, emitting a cold air more continuously. The thin cold air sets off the whole treasure box like a fairy weapon, and the smoke is very mysterious.
"Guests, please wait a moment."
The woman in purple moved gently to a golden basin. After washing it in the golden basin and wiping it with silk, she stepped forward respectfully and gently opened the treasure box.
In an instant, the cold air spread from the treasure box. For a moment, the smoke was lingering, but the smoke was covered with a faint fragrance, which was refreshing. After the thin fog slowly dispersed, a pure white and flawless snow lotus lay quietly in the treasure box, as if just waiting for everyone's appreciation.
What's more surprising is that soon after the treasure box was opened, the petals of the snow lotus automatically dispersed layer by layer, and the white jade petals unfolded with the gradual color. At the innermost layer, there began to be a sense of transparency in the pure white. However, it is staggered in layers, which looks more and more magical, noble and elegant, and even more like a fairy-like beauty.
The elegant and heartfelt fragrance floats slowly, drifting in the air, surrounding the noses of everyone present, and lingering in people's hearts. The person suddenly felt refreshed and refreshed.
The woman in purple smiled slightly and said lightly:
"This strange treasure is the last auction item of this strange treasure auction - Millennium Snow Lotus.
Speaking of Millennium Snow Lotus, I'm afraid everyone should have heard of it more or less.
This thousand-year-old snow lotus was transported day and night by fast horses, and it was preserved with ice sheets along the way, and it was not until this morning. The thousand-year snow lotus is the sacred flower of Qionghai in Yaoshan, but it is different from the ordinary snow lotus. This thousand-year-old snow lotus is raised by the cold pool dew in the cold pool ice cave on the top of Yulong Snow Mountain, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. It blooms once in a thousand years, and there are only nine flowers at a time. Therefore, it is absolutely the best that can be encountered and cannot be sought.
If you smell this thousand-year-old snow lotus every day, it can refresh your mind, relax your mind and replenish your energy; the natural jade dew on the snow lotus can beautify your skin, whiten your skin, and moisturize your skin; if you eat it with natural dew, it can detoxify blood stasis, purify toxins, and prolong life. What's more, it can also purify your physique, and even your body will emit the unique fragrance of snow lotus. However, this snow lotus has only three days left to bloom. After these three days, it will digest into dew.
