Yang Bo looked around and saw a Golden Toad. The Golden Toad was only the size of a palm, it was very exquisite and had golden lumps on its back, it was very lifelike.

Yang Bo reached out his hand to take it, and one of the people beside him also reached out his hand.

Both sides withdrew their hands, and Yang Bo turned to look. Seeing that the other side had ashen hair, and that the other side was sizing up Yang Bo, neither of them spoke first. Since they had already set their eyes on him, neither of them would give up so easily.

After a long while, the other party finally opened his mouth, "This young lad should know how to respect the elderly!"

Yang Bo smiled lightly, "Respecting the elderly and loving the young is a virtue, but the first to come is also a social virtue. Sometimes, I feel that it's better to follow the rules and do things the way they are done!"

The old man laughed, but did not move aside, "This Golden Toad is worth over a hundred thousand, it's not easy for this young lad to earn some money, why don't you give it to me!"

Yang Bo naturally would not retreat, "It's even more difficult for an old man to save up a lifetime's worth of money. I'm young, and I still have the chance to get up after a failure.

When the old man heard Yang Bo's words, he became anxious, "Even if you fight till the end, there's no use, why don't I increase the price in private, give the Golden Toad to me!"

Yang Bo turned around and took another look at the Golden Toad. He didn't pay much attention to it in the first place, but when he looked carefully now, he realized that this Golden Toad was actually only at the end of the Qing Dynasty.

Yang Bo shook his head, "Let's compete!"

The other party did not object, "That's the only way!"

The two of them found the host. The host was slightly dazed because after the conclusion, such things rarely happened. However, he quickly responded, "Since it's your request, I won't say too much!"

"The base price of the Golden Toad is one hundred and thirty thousand, I hope everyone will not harm our relationship because of this!" The host said a few pleasantries and then said, "Let's begin!"

"Three hundred thousand!" Yang Bo didn't wait for the other party to speak and directly doubled the price more than once!

The other party was immediately dumbfounded and could not react in time. Perhaps they had never thought of this number!

The host pulled at the other party and asked, "Are you alright?"

The old man shook his head and sighed, "Forget it, young people are indeed more daring than me, I give up!"

With that, the elder turned around and left, not willing to speak any further.

Yang Bo won with one move, and was very happy. Luo Yaohua had watched the entire scene, and could not help but say: "Truly a prodigal son!"

Yang Bo received the Golden Toad, and paid the three hundred thousand backstage. The auction between the two of them ended so simply.

Until he was blindfolded and sent back to the hotel, Yang Bo still could not react, "Isn't this way too fast!"

Luo Yaohua rolled his eyes, "If you could take out thirty to fifty million, such an auction would definitely not be so fast!"

"Then forget it." Yang Bo said.

Luo Yaohua placed the snuff bottle in his hand on the tea table, and stared at the Golden Toad in his hand: "What's so strange about this Golden Toad?"

"Strange?" What's so weird about that? " Yang Bo glanced at it, and even handed the Golden Toad over.

Luo Yaohua did not answer, "If you say this, how can I believe you? "Don't think that I will not doubt your calm look. Originally, it was only a starting price of one hundred and thirty thousand, but now that you have doubled it to three hundred thousand, do you think I will believe you if you say that there's nothing wrong with it?"

Yang Bo smiled slightly, "I was too impulsive, at that time, I should have stewed slowly, maybe I didn't need to spend so much money!"

"Don't say such nonsense, hurry up and bring the Golden Toad over, I want to study it!" Seeing Yang Bo take back his Golden Toad, Luo Yaohua immediately stopped him.

"You said you didn't want it …"

Luo Yaohua took the Golden Toad and looked left and right, for a long time, but he still didn't get the point, "What's special about this Golden Toad?"

Yang Bo pointed at the left rear foot of the Golden Toad and said: "Look, can you move it?"

Luo Yaohua was startled, "You can't move?"

As he said that, he flipped the Golden Toad over, indicating that the leg was one with the body, and couldn't move at all.

Yang Bo laughed, holding onto the Golden Toad's body, he forcefully twisted it, causing it to make a "Kacha" sound. His entire leg shrank in by half, following that, the Golden Toad opened its mouth and a long tongue came out. On the red tongue, a ball rolled and fell!

Luo Yaohua was shocked, "What's going on?"

Yang Bo was also frightened, even though he had been prepared, he did not expect that there would be such a mechanism!

The Golden Toad's body was covered with a layer of gold foil, covering the mechanism of the hind leg, causing many people to not realize, that Luo Yaohua had received Yang Bo's warning, but they still did not dare move.

Yang Bo only thought for a short while before shifting his gaze to the small balls the Golden Toad was spitting out.

"Liu Hai played with the Golden Toad, he fished for money every step of the way!" "I'm rich, I'm really spitting out white light. Legend has it that Golden Toad often spew out a white light from the well at night, which shot straight to the clouds. There is a dao person that can use this white light to ascend to heaven, and their bangs can use it to ascend to the Immortal Realm.

Yang Bo picked up the white ball and saw that it was soft. It was wrapped in silk threads and upon closer inspection, he realized that the white ball was actually a silkworm cocoon.

There was a small hole on the cocoon, which was left behind when a silkworm transformed into a moth. Through the small hole, Yang Bo actually found a piece of paper inside the cocoon!

Luo Yaohua played with the Golden Toad's hind legs happily, "This ancient people are really intelligent, they can even make toys like this!"

Yang Bo lowered his head, seeing that Luo Yaohua had pulled the Golden Toad's hind leg back, the Golden Toad's tongue quickly curled back, and its mouth closed. He was a bit speechless, "Can you not be so childish?"

Luo Yaohua shook his head, "This is not childish, this is research!"

Yang Bo did not bother to reply, he turned around and looked for a finger nail knife, and slowly cut through the hole in the cocoon.

Very quickly, Yang Bo cut most of the silkworm cocoon apart, and a slip of paper appeared from within. He took out the slip of paper and unfolded it.

Luo Yaohua was already standing behind Yang Bo. Before Yang Bo could see it clearly, he heard Luo Yaohua cry out in shock, "This is a treasure map!"

Yang Bo looked at it and saw that the paper slip was only the size of a palm with a mountain drawn on it. On the map, there was a faint red dot, seemingly due to the passage of time.

Yang Bo looked through the entire blueprint but there was no written explanation, causing him to be disappointed.

Luo Yaohua took the map, "It's really the treasure map, otherwise, they would not hide it so well!"

"Then do you know where we are?" Yang Bo asked.

Luo Yaohua shook his head, "Although I don't know where it is, with the map in my hand, there will still be hope for me to meet it in the future, right?"
