123: Chapter 123 The Real Mingtang Jade Buddha Head

Looking at the old man before him.

Zhao Feiyu smiled faintly and said, "Old man, you knew this thing was a fake, yet you were still desperate to bid for it. It must have been for this, right?"

"I didn't expect this thing to be such a powerful tonic. It actually gave me a nosebleed!"

Zhao Feiyu cleaned himself up, then studied the last one with interest.

"Marvelous, truly marvelous!"

The Old Man in Tang Suit couldn't help but praise.

"I observed you earlier, and you seemed like just an ordinary person. I didn't expect that after consuming this Golden Core, you wouldn't explode and die. It seems your constitution must be very special!"

"Golden Core?"

Young Master Yu heard what the old man said.

He immediately began to mock them.

"You're calling these sheep-dung beads Golden Cores? I think you've gone senile, old man."

"You were bidding just now, and since you didn't get it, you're crazily claiming that thing is a Golden Core?"

But the Old Man in Tang Suit ignored Young Master Yu completely and continued, "Young man, you've consumed one Golden Core. The energy accumulated in your body will take at least several years to digest."

"Will you sell the remaining one to me?"

However, Zhao Feiyu gripped the bead and said, "This is clearly something good. You want it? I wonder how much you're willing to offer?"

"Since you've already eaten one, if you're willing, I can buy it from you for your winning bid of 550 billion!"

Hearing this, the smug expression on Young Master Yu's face instantly froze.

What was going on?

Wasn't this a fake?

Were these guys crazy?

Meanwhile.

Zhao Feiyu also clearly felt it.

The so-called 'Golden Core' he had just eaten.

The energy it contained had indeed accumulated significantly within his body, just as the old man had said.

And the digestion just now had only absorbed about one-tenth of it.

The rest was all stored up inside him.

It would take time to slowly absorb it.

If he were to eat the remaining one.

Zhao Feiyu suspected that he really might explode and die.

Because this thing was simply too potent a tonic.

"Young man, I am Tang Haichuan! If you sell the remaining one to me, I can promise you three favors. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, as long as it's within Huaxia territory, I will certainly help you!"

The Old Man in Tang Suit offered his terms again.

"Tang Haichuan?"

Right then, Yuan Lingzhi, who was standing nearby, suddenly let out a cry of surprise.

"You're Tang Haichuan?"

A second later, Yuan Lingzhi looked at the girl with the high ponytail. "And you're Tang Yinger?"

"Hehe, Sister Lingzhi, you finally remembered me!"

The girl with the high ponytail smiled slightly.

"Heavens, it's been over ten years, hasn't it? What are you doing here!"

Yuan Lingzhi covered her mouth in shock.

"It's a long story, let's catch up in a bit!"

The girl called Tang Yinger looked at Zhao Feiyu.

Seeing this, Yuan Lingzhi hurriedly urged Zhao Feiyu, "Feiyu, hurry up and agree! You definitely won't lose out!"

Seeing this, Zhao Feiyu was also somewhat surprised.

It seemed this Tang Haichuan had quite an extraordinary background!

"Young man!"

Seeing that Zhao Feiyu was still hesitating.

Tang Haichuan continued to persuade him.

"I know what you're thinking. You're probably thinking of waiting until you've absorbed the energy in your body before eating this Golden Core, right?"

"However, the moment you cracked it open, this Golden Core could no longer be preserved for long!"

"Do you know why the person who originally refined these Golden Cores hid them inside gemstones?"

"Since ancient times, the energy of medicinal pills, like alcohol and similar substances, will evaporate and dissipate."

"The ancients sealed them in gemstones to preserve them, but now that it's been exposed to air, it will dissipate in a month at most. By then, it really won't be any different from sheep dung!"

"So, rather than letting that happen, you might as well sell it to me!"

Hearing this, Zhao Feiyu felt it made sense.

So he nodded and sold the remaining Golden Core to Tang Haichuan.

Tang Haichuan, fearing that Zhao Feiyu might change his mind.

Paid immediately without another word.

The 550 billion he had just spent.

Had actually come back to him.

Furthermore, Tang Haichuan had actually given Zhao Feiyu 600 billion.

Seeing that Zhao Feiyu had turned around and sold the jade buddha head for 600 billion because of two sheep-dung beads, making a profit of 50 billion.

Young Master Yu's smug smile from moments ago completely vanished without a trace.

"Then this buddha head..."

Zhao Feiyu said, looking at the so-called fake jade buddha head.

"My only goal was the Golden Core. That jade buddha head is useless to me!"

Saying this, Tang Haichuan prepared to leave impatiently.

"Kid, remember my words. For the favor of the Golden Core, I owe you three promises. If you have trouble in the future, come find me. Within Huaxia, I can ensure your safety!"

With that, the old man prepared to leave with Tang Yinger.

"By the way, Old Master Tang, I'm curious. Since you're so rich, why did you give up at 200 billion?"

Zhao Feiyu asked curiously.

"To tell you the truth, I've traveled far and wide to find the mingtang jade buddha head and spent a lot of money on fakes. I thought this was another fake, so I didn't keep bidding!"

Hearing this, Zhao Feiyu suddenly understood.

"Sister Lingzhi, here's my number. I'm leaving now. See you next time!"

Tang Yinger didn't dare to disobey her grandfather.

She left her number and then departed.

"Haha!!!"

This time, it was Zhang Baiyu's turn to start laughing.

"Fake?"

"Defective?"

"Something from the Ming Dynasty?"

"Worth a few million at most?"

"Now someone actually spent 600 billion to buy one eyeball. So, who's the winner and who's the loser now?"

Zhang Baiyu mocked unreservedly.

"Even though you made money, my brother didn't lose any either. In fact, he made a 50 billion profit. Come to think of it, we should thank you!"

"Hmph! What's so great about that!"

Young Master Yu snorted coldly.

"Anyway, I still made 550 billion!"

"Oh? Really?"

Just then, Zhao Feiyu let out a cold laugh and slowly picked up the auctioneer's gavel.

"What if I told you that you missed out on a treasure worth trillions, or even something priceless? Would you still say you made money?"

"What do you mean?"

Young Master Yu asked, confused.

As soon as he said this, even the others were a bit puzzled.

But in the next moment.

Before everyone's eyes.

Zhao Feiyu raised the auction gavel high and smashed it down hard onto the buddha head.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Zhao Feiyu struck the buddha head repeatedly.

Everyone watched this scene in astonishment.

Crack!

In the next instant.

A sound like glass shattering suddenly rang out.

The buddha head began to shatter inch by inch.

Then, before everyone's eyes, it burst open.

Immediately following that.

Everyone's eyes widened.

Beneath the original buddha head.

There was actually another Guanyin buddha head, slightly smaller, emitting a milky-white glow.

"This... is the real mingtang jade buddha head!"
