Chapter 444: The White-Bearded Old Man
Open the twentieth box, Fang Ling, who was far away, was still at ease, and what shocked people was the description of his export growth, whether it was Tang Wuyan or the white-bearded old man, their descriptions were straightforward and blunt, what is the name of the spiritual object, where it is produced, what is the effect, it can be completed in three sentences
Fang Ling also said three sentences, but these three sentences are beady, as if the life of the spirit is all condensed into these three sentences, each word is like a pearl shining light, which is intriguing, but also makes people feel unfinished, just like a top-notch meal, the more you chew, the more flavorful.
Moreover, no matter what kind of spiritual object came out of the box, how rare it came from, and how rare it was, Fang Ling could identify it at a glance, and this ability was enough to make people stunned.
Sun Fanfan's eyes when he looked at Fang Ling gradually changed, he was a good spiritual object, and he had come into contact with countless scholars and talents, but it was the first time like Fang Ling, he was so young, and he was a disciple of Xianmen, but his insights and descriptions of spiritual objects were by no means as simple as simply seeing and hearing about them, but more like having been in contact with them.
Sun Fan was secretly surprised in his heart, such a person is a phoenix in the underworld, after all, if you want to travel all over the earth, it will take a lot of time, not to mention that if you don't have guides from all over the world and a lot of financial resources to help, even if it takes thousands of years, don't want to find these rare treasures one by one, not to mention that the young man is only twenty years old, and he is a disciple of Xianmen.
Sun Fan Fan was suspicious, and became more and more curious about the young man's background, while the others were also shocked by Fang Ling's eloquent talk.
Yao Zhenran's brows were tightly locked, and even Tang Wuyan, who was in the competition, was attracted by Fang Ling's words from time to time, and even nodded his head again and again unconsciously, as if he was in agreement and as if he had been instructed.
I don't know when, Fang Ling has already controlled the entire scene with his erudite knowledge, a word, a word, can cause everyone to think deeply and groan, and a single action can make people breathtaking.
When the incense candle burned to seventy, Fang Ling had perfectly identified the fiftieth box, and none of them were missing, although he couldn't distinguish 2 more spiritual objects than Yao Zhenran, but it was enough to make everyone dumbfounded, and Yao Zhenran's face changed greatly.
After the incense candles were burned, Tang Wuyan had accurately identified the forty-seven boxes, which was slightly inferior to Yao Zhenran, but at this time, he had already put away his arrogant expression, and arched his hand towards Fang Ling and said: "Fang Gongzi is very knowledgeable, like a vast sea, Tang is convinced. ”
Fang Ling smiled, and also arched his hand and said: "Senior Tang is modest, the younger generation is just lucky, and the encounters are all spiritual objects that happen to be known." ”
Seeing that Fang Ling did not have the slightest arrogant expression, Tang Wuyan felt even more ashamed, and said sincerely: "I will stay in Nanrong Difu for a while, if the prince has time, I can discuss the spiritual objects in the world with you." ”
"I will accompany you. Fang Ling promised.
Sun Shangling smiled, and couldn't help but glance at Du Tianzhao proudly, Du Tianzhao's face was gloomy, but he couldn't just leave, so he was so angry that he almost stomped his feet.
When Fang Ling walked back, Sun Shangling praised him a lot, thinking that he could easily defeat Tang Wuyan, and it was not a problem to capture the leader, and there was no taste of official words between his words, and there was even a little compliment, after all, once Fang Ling seized the leader and became the staff of the mansion master, how could he be able to reach this lieutenant in terms of status? If Fang Ling said a few kind words in front of the mansion master, the Sun family would definitely be able to soar.
At this point, the matter has been much beyond everyone's expectations, originally thought that it would be Tang Wuyan, a hidden master, who would compete with Yao Zhenran for the top spot, but he didn't expect that the most inconspicuous Xianmen disciple would become a dark horse, and he easily defeated Tang Wuyan in front of everyone's eyes, and even convinced Tang Wuyan with his talent.
You must know that Tang Wuyan is a well-known arrogant talent, he does not bow his head to the emperor in the mortal world, and he is also known as arrogant after coming to Yinsi, but he is impressed by the mere youth, which shows the shock that Fang Ling's talent and learning gave him.
Of course, it was not only him who was shocked, everyone present was amazed by Fang Ling's knowledge, and at this time, everyone wanted to know even more if he could defeat Yao Eran.
Sun Fan Wen glanced at Fang Ling with appreciation, and then his eyes fell on everyone in the field, and said with a smile: "Today's game is very unexpected by this government, it is really an eye-opener, so now the government will announce the rules of the third round of the competition." ”
Everyone's expressions were stunned, and they didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, only to hear Sun Fan Wen continue: "After a while, a spiritual object will be placed on the jade table, and the three of them will identify the spiritual object by the time of a pillar of incense, and then enter the answer into the sound stone respectively. If all three are correct, then identify the second artifact until only one wins. ”
Everyone nodded again and again, the rules of the straight game are very fair, but at the same time, it is definitely full of difficulty, after all, it takes three people to spend a pillar of incense time to identify the spiritual objects that are definitely not ordinary goods, the spiritual objects used in the second round are already rare, and treasures like Tianzhu Stone have been taken out, and the third round is definitely an even rarer thing.
Among the three, Zhao Yuanxi is the most inconspicuous, and the only ones that everyone pays attention to are Fang Ling and Yao Zhenran.
After a while, a guard came up with a golden box, and he carefully lowered the box before uncovering it.
I saw that there was a palm-sized delicate disc in the box, the disc was no more than an inch thick, and the "color" was dark gold, with a circle of Yin inscriptions on it, and the middle part of each circle was densely written with strange characters, but other than that, there were no other features.
As soon as the people on the periphery saw this thing, their faces suddenly became suspicious, except that they believed that the disc was made by hand, but they did not have a clue, and they saw that the characters were crooked and distorted, like earthworms, and they didn't know whether it was a word or a painting.
Yao Zhenran frowned slightly, "touched" his chin and thought deeply, Zhao Yuanxi also gently "rubbed" his temples, and was also thinking deeply, even Fang Ling also "groaned", after all, the knowledge of the book in his mind is too extensive, and the things that have an impression when reading can be popped up in a conditional "shot" style, but there are also a large part of them that need to be carefully searched for before they can appear.
However, it only took Fang Ling a few breaths to find the origin of the characters, which was a script that appeared in the underworld millions of years ago, and this kind of writing was not widely circulated, but was used by a certain tribe in the northern part of the underworld.
The vast underworld has a history of tens of millions of years, as early as the rise of the underworld, there were already many ghosts living here, and the ghosts absorbed the qi of the earth yin and condensed into the flesh, becoming the earliest aborigines of the underworld.
Later, the underworld was established, and the people of the underworld were included in the rule, and the ghost emperors of the five directions also gathered the people of various tribes and rose, but under the earth, there are still some corners that even the two forces cannot control.
Legend has it that there is a mysterious tribe in the north of the underworld, discovered by the people of the underworld millions of years ago, and the sorcerers of this tribe have passed down a secret method from generation to generation, which can use a special divination plate to check the past and present lives of the tribe, and guide their fate.
But when everyone arrived, the tribe was already empty, and there was no memory left in history.
Fang Ling remembered this past incident and understood that this divination plate was only found by the relocated tribe at that time, and it was only left to this day, so he picked up the sound stone that the guards had just given him and entered his mind into it.
The Stone looks full of holes, but it is a strange stone that has the ability to transform consciousness into sound, and when the mind is lost, the Stone emits a circle of red light, and if it is placed in pure water, it can speak the transformed sound.
In the next moment, Yao Zhenran also finished judging, and finally Zhao Yuanxi, when the three sound stones were put into the water together, the three of them had the same answer, and they all accurately judged that this was a divination.
Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads again and again, the three of them were indeed extraordinary, only Du Tianzhao, the head of the Du family, was annoyed, obviously he had a great chance of winning, and he didn't want to be eliminated in the second round, he really didn't know who to talk to.
Then, the guards brought up a box, much larger enough to hold the next sword, and its material was made of rare ice and snow stones, and as soon as they took it out, everyone felt the temperature in the hall plummet.
When the box was opened, everyone suddenly felt that their scalps were numb, and Xiao Xue's second daughter immediately frowned, because what was in the box was actually a fat meat maggot!
This meat maggot is two feet long, the adult's forearm is thick, and the whole body is fat and bulging, forming dense folds, its "color" is pale gold, and there are a pair of black "color" eyes the size of soybeans on the head.
Under the action of the ice and snow stone, the meat maggot has entered a state of hibernation, with slow breathing, the body occasionally moves slightly, if you smell it carefully, you can even smell the slightest rancid smell.
Everyone came back to their senses, you look at me, look at you, even the contestants in the previous rounds don't know what the origin of this meat maggot is, where this thing is placed is too conspicuous, if you have seen it, you must recognize it, if you haven't heard of it, you haven't seen it, then you can't think of it even if you scratch your head.
Fang Ling 'touched' his chin, seemingly thinking carefully, letting his consciousness penetrate into a deeper memory, looking for the origin of the meat maggot in the book of Diluo Wanxiang, there is only one clue about this thing, that is, the beast of the underworld.
Yao Zhenran and Zhao Yuanxi also frowned and pondered, digging into the books hidden in their minds, although it was said that there was a pillar of incense, but it was impossible to waste a minute or a second for identifying rare spiritual objects.
