“…… Distinguished guests, as well as all the contestants present, good evening! It's 6 p.m. local time, and our game for today is over! The points data has been updated, now! Just look at the big screen!" The figure of Zephyr, which had disappeared for several hours, appeared on the scene again, and the voice of Zephyr was cheerful, and the screen was just in time to switch.

An updated leaderboard appears on the screen. The top five teams are all in the spotlight.

Congratulations to each team were briefly expressed, and after the applause at the scene stopped, the rules for a new round of competition were announced.

“…… First of all, on behalf of the Interstellar Development Group and the Organizing Committee of the Ancient Cultural Relics Restoration Competition, I would like to express my deep apologies once again for the last small accident. At midnight tonight, our system will be repaired for three days, during which our game will continue in another format!"

In the passionate and subdued voice of the breeze, Lin Hainan roughly understood the new rules of the game.

The system is being repaired, mainly the teleportation system, while the scoring system is on as usual and will remain open for the next three days, 72 hours. In the next three days, the restoration of cultural relics can be carried out at any time, and there is no limit to the location of the restoration, but the biggest difference is that the restored cultural relics are not provided by the Interstellar Development Group, but by the wealthy people who came to watch the game. The remuneration paid by the plutocrats for the repair of the team is directly converted into the number of votes cast at the rate of $10 per vote.

"Tut, tsk", Feng Jianfei shook his head mockingly, "I just said that the tickets for the Classical Beauty Contest are so expensive and there are still a group of people coming, it turns out that this is the purpose." Interstellar Development Group is too blatant. How did the protests of the participating teams be suppressed?"

"There's no way around it. Lin Hainan said: "The vast majority of teams will stick to this set of competition equipment to the end. And the final interpretation right belongs to the Interstellar Development Group, and all of our participating teams agreed to all the competition systems of the Interstellar Development Group from the beginning and abided by the rules of the competition, and these rich people, who interpret it as a 'public judge', can easily fool around. ”

"Then we will suffer a dumb loss like this?" Feng Jianfei was still depressed after thinking about it, it had been almost a month since he came to the Oasis Development Zone, and there had never been a time when he went out to make Feng Jianfei so eager to return to China.

"Yes, you have to swallow blood even if you knock out your teeth," Lin Hainan looked at the wind on the stage, not squinting. "Our situation is going to be a bit more serious than the other teams, after all, Shata is the biggest threat. ”

At the mention of Shata again, the Forbidden City team fell silent again.

Glancing at Yumi and Xu Jin, who had not spoken since the beginning, Lin Hainan turned his gaze back to the stage and sighed softly in his heart.

“…… Okay! Today's competition is completely coming to an end! But night is falling, and the night has just begun!" With the exciting music and drum beats, the wind is in high spirits, "Eight o'clock in the evening! Our World Classical Beauty Elite Tournament will continue! Let us see you soon!"

The crowd erupted in warm applause, but Lin Hainan had other ideas. He turned to Yumi and asked, "Miss Althea, can you confirm her identity?"

Yumi shook her head, "No. After all, it's not a competition with us, and the organizers," Yumi showed a hesitant look, "it shouldn't be a star development group." There is no news on the official website about this. Later, I also carefully studied the manual I got back, and there was nothing on it except for the sentence, that is, the picture. ”

Yumi rubbed her temples in annoyance, "Now there's another person with the Pisces ring logo, otherwise you can leave this inexplicable match alone." ”

The competition came to an end, and the teams began to pack up their venues and prepare to leave. Lin Hainan also stood up and said as he cleaned up: "This classical beauty elite competition is indeed inexplicable, but it should have a special meaning or purpose. Figuring out who her organizer is, or investigating this Althea, is the way to go. Lin Hainan stopped and hurriedly Xu Jin, "Xu Jin, go back and see if you can find some information about Athea." Yumi. You continue to inquire and pay attention to who the organizers of this contest are. There is no rush for these things. ”

Yumi and Xu Jin both nodded to indicate that they understood. Feng Jianfei held his arm as if he had everything, and called out to Yumi: "Yumi." Seeing Yumi looking over, Feng Jianfei lowered his voice slightly and said, "You go back and sneak into the backstage to see if there are any other women with the mark of the double fish ring." ”

Yumi's eyes widened: "You think ......"

Lin Hainan nodded and praised: "Jian Fei's idea is correct. It is indeed possible. ”

If all the female contestants were marked with a double fish ring, Yumi would not only be dumbfounded, she had a hunch that she would be shocked. I just thought about it again, no, that day, Althea's reaction was clearly afraid that others would find the mark of the Pisces ring, and the other contestants did not react as violently as her, so it is speculated that among the more than 100 beauties, there should be only one or very few of them with the mark of the Pisces ring. Yumi didn't say anything about her speculation, just nodded and agreed to turn around and keep an eye on the women. But in Yumi's heart, he faintly felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't say what was wrong.

At this time, the team's public relations channel in charge of Yumi prompted that there was new information, and Yumi hurriedly threw aside his messy thoughts and opened the team's public relations channel.

This channel is rarely used, and there will be new information at this time, which can only be related to new matches. Sure enough, there was an anonymous unfamiliar message in the dialog box:

[Ladies and gentlemen of the Forbidden City team, your competition is very exciting, your restoration skills are impressive, I have an item on hand, I hope you can help identify it. Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock, 306, I look forward to your visit. 】

"Appraisal?he's talking about appraisal?" Yumi looked back at Lin Hainan suspiciously.

"These rich people don't necessarily need to be repaired, and they may indeed need to be identified. ”

"What ......?"

"Go. There is no reason to refuse. ”

Feng Jianfei nodded and smiled indifferently: "As long as the other party can vote, it can be repaired or appraised." Rolling his eyes, Feng Jianfei frowned and said, "Wait, will there be a lot of cultural relics traded here?"

Powered by the participating teams, rich people from all over the world, maybe not only rich, may be a wanted smuggler, may be something else, this world classical beauty elite competition, the only threshold for viewing is money. In this ancient relics restoration competition, all the participating teams are flowers, and those who have thousands of dollars in their pockets are the Buddhas that the Interstellar Development Group wants to offer flowers. The Interstellar Development Group was so blatant, Feng Jianfei panicked when he thought that they might have promoted or were about to promote some improper cultural relics trade.

Lin Hainan knew what he was thinking, and he could only be afraid to pat Feng Jianfei on the shoulder, and comforted: "Okay, don't think about it." Didn't you say it, as long as the other party can vote, you have to go anything. ”

Feng Jianfei let out a sigh and sighed, "I know, I have to win the game first." ”

This night's World Classical Beauty Classic is still an exhibition match, and the scene is extremely hot. Beauties from all walks of life have shown their characteristics and attracted people's attention, and similarly, the number of votes they have received is evaluated as points, the difference is that each person can only yo one vote, and cannot be purchased with money. But even so, it still does not affect the high morale of the girls.

Without too much participation in the carnival of the classical beauty elite competition, Lin Hainan returned to his room early.

Spreading his father's notes and the documents in the study on the bed, Lin Hainan propped his chin and thought. In Father Lin's notes, the process of entering the desert is not recorded in detail, but many folklore and their own experiences are recorded by the accompanying scientific expeditioners. Lin Feng's notes are not so much the work notes of an undergraduate examination, but rather a folk tale and a modern version of "Night Talk".

There are many and miscellaneous stories, Lin Hainan only read them hastily at that time, and read them casually when he has time, and he did not study them very carefully. It took a night for Lin Hainan to read the notes again. However, the next day, by coincidence, the first rich man who asked the Forbidden City team to identify was actually connected to a story in the notes.

We have to start all over again.

The next morning, the people of the Forbidden City team arrived at the room of the person who made the reservation as scheduled. They were greeted by a polite middle-aged man, perhaps a secretary or a housekeeper, who didn't talk much, with a calm bearing, greeted Lin Hainan and the others, and politely invited a few people to sit down.

"Good morning, everyone from the Forbidden City team. Our old man is unwell and can't see guests, please forgive me. I am a secretary and my surname is Wang. Without further ado," Secretary Wang motioned to the person behind him to put the box he had been holding on the table.

The box is about the size of a 14-inch laptop, and the material is not recognizable, as the box is inlaid with gorgeous dark red brocade. At the signal of Secretary Wang, Lin Hainan and the others put on gloves and carefully opened the brocade box.

I saw a few pieces of paper lying crumpled in the brocade box.

Lin Hainan carefully picked up one of them, the paper had a certain thickness, and it was not brittle, there was no peculiar smell, there was a faint smell of wood pulp, mixed with an unknown aroma. The fragrance is refreshing, Lin Hainan glanced at the brocade box, and guessed that it was agarwood.

Looking at the piece of paper carefully, Lin Hainan's brows furrowed, this is-

The team channel quietly sounded:

Yumi: [That's right, right?]

Xu Jin: [This is the paperwork, right?]

It was not an ordinary piece of paper, an ordinary piece of paper should have been broken a long time ago, it was a piece of hard cloth, which was of the same material as the piece of hard cloth in the maid's terracotta figurines, and the special words on the piece of hard cloth could still be vaguely recognized.

It's just that the hard cloth has been broken into several pieces, and the text on it is even more blurred, and some of the cloth pieces still have burnt marks on the edges. The damage was severe.

Lin Hainan carefully checked each piece of cloth, put it down and made eye contact with Feng Jianfei and the others, and slowly said: "Mr. Wang, this cultural relic is very badly damaged, and it is very difficult to repair......

Secretary Wang waved his hand and said, "I didn't let you fix it." We invite you to do an appraisal. ”
