Abyssal Kingdom

The charity party is held in the largest hall of the Rambler Hotel.

At this time, because the sky was very cloudy, all the lights were turned on.In the hall, chandeliers hung down spectacularly, gilding everything in bright gold.

When Wei An walked in, the auction had already started.

A remnant of an ancient civilization is being sold on the stage. It is placed in a glass box, and a few beams of bright lights are shining on it, creating a luxurious and gorgeous effect.

Items from ancient civilizations rarely enter the auction stage, and the Taoyuan government can actually get this, which shows the sincerity of the blessing society.

Although the things according to are extremely scary.It was naked, its limbs and head were gone, and its body was deeply embedded in the wire. If you measure it from a human point of view, you don’t know what kind of torture it suffered during its lifetime. After so many years, you can feel the insult, cruelty and strength.

Many corpses of ancient civilizations are in this style. The auctioneer is introducing that this is the corpse of an "ancient humanoid creature". The chemical composition has undergone great changes, and traces of blood stains from a long time ago can be seen. This form seemed to be hung somewhere for display and deterrence.

The introduction was very professional, and the people in the hall were very attentive, waiting for the price.

Wei An took two glasses of the hotel's specialty fruit drinks and found a seat in the corner to sit down.

Gui Ling sat next to him, Wei An pushed the drink to him and said, "Drink it."

The monster picked it up, took a sip, and the bidding of the auction soon started, and Wei An turned his attention to the auction stage again.

The price rose very high, Wei An didn't follow, he didn't really want to buy this thing, even though he actually bought it and donated it, he still didn't want to buy it.

Not far away were people talking in low voices, most of them were all kinds of strange talks about the Yingtian government, offering sacrifices to humans, pleasing evil gods, and ancient rumors such as being able to gain power.

Although the ancient civilization is mysterious and terrifying, it is now basically confirmed that human beings are the survivors of that era, and the two have similar languages, appearances, buildings, and basic symbols.

People had a lot of dark and romantic fantasies about that time, the lives of people who were very powerful, similar to them and totally different.

While drinking the drink, Wei An began to tell Gui Ling how the drink was made and what kind of flavor the appropriate ice cubes added, just like a gourmet expert.

The antiques of the corpse were finally auctioned by a private collector, another exhibit was on the stage, it was still a corpse, and the auction would be orderly.

Wei An introduced two more dim sums to Gui Ling, and finally came across a set of tableware and quickly took pictures of them.

However, it may be because the ancient civilization attribute is not strong, and the price is lower than the market price, which makes him a little embarrassed.

Wei An had contacted a friend before coming here, and told him that he was not very interested in ancient civilizations, and would leave after walking around.He originally wanted to take a picture of anything and leave, but he could only stay a little longer and get an expensive compensation.

Wei An was paying attention to the hotel's new drinks, and several young people walked towards them.

The leader was quite familiar with Wei An, calling his name from a distance and waving at him, so Wei An also smiled and greeted them.

There are three people in this line, and the one who walks in the front is Xing Fan, a young man in his early twenties. His family has something to do with Wei An's investment business, so we can run into each other from time to time.

Before he came to the front, he yelled at Wei An: "Can't you go to a normal organization for charity? Where did the 'Falcon Rescue' come from? You know that their batch of equipment is the trustee of Hanniao It's scrapped—"

He was talking about the fact that Wei An donated 30 neuroprosthetic devices to a rescue organization for victims of biological pollution. The group of people they rescued is currently in a compensation lawsuit with a large security group called Hanniao, and there is no therapeutic device. , If one more person dies, the company can save a lot of money.

"The Edifier's new drink is good, do you want to try it?" Wei An said to Xingfan.

"Three cups—" Xingfan said, calling out to the waiter.

The three of them sat down at the table, and Xingfan continued to say to Wei An: "Hanniao is a lawless mercenary team, who knows what will happen, you are a rich and idle person, can you stop messing up your life?" It's so dangerous!"

"It's okay." Wei An said.

Xingfan looked at him with a look of hatred, and said that he didn't know how troublesome it was to be taken care of by such a big company with dirty methods. He knew the people there. Wei An didn't know the situation before. It wouldn't really do anything to him, but he'd better not do that in the future.

Among the other two, one of them turned his head to look at the auction platform, and the other one named Xi Luo was drunk and kept looking at Gui Ling, looking very interested.

"This is your new bodyguard, don't you want to introduce me?" He said to Wei An.

Wei An didn't want to introduce him at all because of his expression, but he brought Guiling out this time mainly to show his presence, so he smiled and briefly introduced: "Wei Ling, my friend, this is Xi Luo , this is He Lihan, Xingfan—"

He introduced a few other people, and of course Gui Ling didn't mean to say hello in any way, he just nodded, he was so cool as hell.

But Xi Luo didn't mind at all, on the contrary, he was even more excited. Before Wei Anhuo finished, he started to say to Guiling: "Hello, Wei Ling, I just heard someone talking about you—"

"We met my second uncle on the road just now, and he described it well." Xing Fan explained to him that he was talking about the vice president of the charity association he met just now.

"He said your 'friend' was top notch, but you look like a baby, and you're not ready to make a move—" he continued.

His contemptuous tone made Wei An nervous, but Gui Ling drank his drink slowly, turning a blind eye and getting used to it.

A painting of an ancient civilization began to be auctioned on the stage. Wei An didn't like it very much, but he still planned to take a picture so that he could leave as soon as possible.

A few people seemed to be determined to win the painting and began to bid. Wei An didn't want to compete with them at all, but Xi Luo kept talking to Gui Ling.

It's the kind of thing that a playboy is boring when he is idle, why does he have a big house, is in a very expensive location, what kind of car does he drive, and certain parties are particularly exciting, he likes his ignorance Human appearance, very annoying.

Of course Wei An didn't like Gui Ling very much, but he felt that he didn't like the tone of others talking to him either.

"I'm serious, you must come to play, I have already introduced you to my friends, everyone is looking forward to it..." Xi Luo continued to say to Guiling.

"He won't go." Wei An said.

Xi Luo ignored him, and continued to say to Guiling, "If you come with me, I'll send you a sports car, okay?"

Wei An turned to look at the auction table, directly quoted a very high price, and took the painting down. Several people around him looked at him with shocked expressions.

Wei An stood up.

He showed a gentle smile to everyone, and said: "See if there is anything you want to shoot, Wei Ling and I have something to do, so we will leave first.

He walked outside, Gui Ling drank the last bit of juice and stood up.

Wei An saw that Xi Luo also stood up, and wanted to follow them.

He stopped and said to the man, "You know he's my friend, Ciro, don't keep talking."

The other party laughed, as if he had said something stupid.

"Hey, I didn't do anything to him, I just wanted to make friends," the man said, "I know that his family is in trouble, and he is your good friend, but anyway, it is impossible to go back to the past, and now he is back in the circle. Want to make more 'friends' here.

"He's grown up to make good 'friends', I'm sure my friends and I would love-"

Wei An said, "Give me some respect."

He felt that he was not intimidating Ciro, and his tone was not heavy, just showing his attitude.He didn't like being offended like this.

He wasn't sure why, maybe because he hadn't actually expressed the idea of ​​being offended for so long, he was a person who could do anything, but Ciro's pupils contracted visibly, and he slowly straightened his body and leaned against the on the back of the chair.

"You..." Xingfan opened his mouth and then closed it again. None of the people spoke, and there was a bit of silence.

The surroundings are bustling, but this place has fallen into a slightly uneasy silence, and some inexplicable tension seeps into it.

Wei An turned and left.

He could feel those people staring at his back, but they didn't follow.

Maybe it's because he's really angry, Wei An thought, he's never been like this before, his image in Taoyuan is a completely gentle, friendly and generous person, he doesn't remember that he lost his temper, and he really has nothing to lose his temper .

Guiling's arrival broke some rules, and there was nothing he could do about it. This person was too dangerous, and he needed more care.

As the two left the auction, the surroundings suddenly became deserted.

The Rambler Hotel has black veils hanging around, as if decorating too brightly would be offensive.

They didn't take a few steps before they came to a garden. There was also a small hall cleverly concealed here, just like the Rambler Hotel. Elegant gardens can be seen everywhere, with trees and water flow, and the introduction of skylight.

This is also the origin of the hotel's name, because there are trails suitable for strolling wherever you go, the green plants grow randomly but not chaotic, and the lighting is also excellent, which can create the effect of a sunny trail when needed.

When walking in such a place, it's hard to believe that bad things will happen here, although there are still many "bad things" in luxury hotels.

"Let's go back," Wei An broke the silence, "I know that there is a store here whose red square cakes are very delicious, and the chocolate tastes good too. Let's take some home."

Of course Gui Ling didn't speak, Wei An said: "Go this way, I know a shortcut."

He walked over there, and said to Guiling: "It seems that my personality in Taoyuan has to be changed."

Guiling didn't answer, he continued: "That's fine. When I was taking espionage courses, the teacher always said that a person with appropriate weaknesses and emotions would be more real. It was always difficult for me to understand. I was strictly required to grow up. Big one, what is the weakness, what is the emotional? It is confusing.

"I kind of like the way I lost my temper because of you just now, it has changed my image a bit, no matter how friendly I am, I only react violently and lose my temper for a friend... Well, I like it This persona."

Gui Ling glanced at him, his expression seemed to be looking at a mental patient.
