Chapter 503: Distinguishing Things
Since agreeing with Su Yaowen about the refining competition, Jiang Hongye returned directly to the room, and he never left for more than ten hours. Through the monitoring of the unmanned detection machine, Su Yaowen clearly knew what this man's wife was doing, it turned out that she opened all her storage bags, kept taking out various materials from them, and then screened them.
It seems that this man's wife attaches great importance to this competition, and it takes a day to prepare, and it is estimated that she will hold back a big move. Since there was nothing suspicious on Jiang Hongye's side, Su Yaowen didn't bother to pay attention to it, and asked Xiaomi to continue to monitor and notify him if he found anything abnormal.
Seeing that Jiang Hongye attached so much importance to the competition, he must have tried his best, but Su Yaowen was not the slightest nervous or worried, and he still looked like a hanger. Jiang Hongye wants to compete with Su Yaowen on the basic skills of the trial weapon, and there is no chance of winning a priori, and even what kind of preparation she will make now has been recorded by the unmanned detection machine, what chance does she have to win?
In the evening, Bai Xingkong, who had gone out, finally came back, but after he came back, he didn't tell everyone what he had done today, and it seemed that he still had something to hide. Regarding the competition between Su Yaowen and Jiang Hongye, he also learned from Yan Ziqi's mouth, but after Bai Xingkong knew about it, he didn't show anything unusual, which made Su Yaowen a little unsure of his thoughts.
The time of the night passed quickly, and by the time Su Yaowen slept enough and left the room, it was almost noon the next day. If it weren't for Qu Ruyan's eyes that the appointed time for the competition was approaching, he came over to wake him up, maybe this thing would have overslept.
When Su Yaowen came to the competition venue, he saw that the rest of the people were already waiting here, especially Jiang Hongye, who looked like she was waiting for battle, and those who didn't know thought she was going to the battlefield. Although she was full of confidence and felt that she was sure to win, Jiang Hongye knew who Bai Xingkong was. If Su Yaowen didn't have a certain strength, he would never be praised like this, so Jiang Hongye didn't dare to be careless, and spent a day preparing.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Su Yaowen smiled slightly, and he couldn't tell if he was really sorry, but everyone didn't have the heart to think about this at this time.
"Don't talk nonsense, can you start?" Jiang Hongye asked impatiently, she was already waiting here when the time was about to end, but Su Yaowen had been sleeping until now, and now she still looked sleepy-eyed, which naturally made her very angry.
"Anytime. Su Yaowen nodded, and didn't overstimulate the other party anymore, otherwise it wouldn't be fun for this man's wife to go berserk directly.
Seeing Su Yaowen say this, Bai Xingkong took a step forward, stood between the two, and said: "Since it is a competition, it must be evaluated by the referee, anyway, the four of us are idle, so let's take our place temporarily, what do you think?"
"Yes. Jiang Hongye replied indifferently, she was confident that her strength could crush Su Yaowen, no matter who would be the referee, she would not have any problems.
As for Su Yaowen, he will not have an opinion, unless these people open their eyes and talk nonsense, otherwise Jiang Hongye will have no chance of winning. After receiving an answer from the two, Bai Xingkong and the others took a few steps back and gave up a sufficient space for the two to compete.
In the middle of the venue, a clean round table has been prepared in advance, which is provided by Jiang Hongye and is a magic weapon for special refining. This table can neither be used for attack, nor does it have any special abilities, the only advantage is that it is sturdy, and can withstand the pressure of more than 100,000 catties without collapsing.
Jiang Hongye lifted his chin lightly, looked at Su Yaowen proudly, and then took out a piece of pitch-black ore from the storage bag and slowly placed it on the table. When Jiang Hongye let go, the ore fell to the table, and there was a muffled sound, followed by a slight shaking. The table, which can withstand more than 100,000 catties, was actually weighed slightly by a piece of ore, which shows that the weight of this ore must be very amazing.
"This is the material I prepared, and the first test is the ability to distinguish objects, and the general way to use it is to see with your eyes, touch it with your hands, and smell it with your nose. So we first have to compare the eyesight, in addition to using the eyes to observe, the two sides can not touch with their hands, nor can they smell, let alone use mobile phones to search. Do you have any objections to each of them telling the information about the materials provided by the other party after a quarter of an hour has passed?"
Su Yaowen looked at Jiang Hongye and said with a slight smile: "The refining competition was proposed by you, and the competition items were also set by you, logically speaking, the details of the competition should be decided by me." But I read that you are a woman, although it is difficult to see this from the figure, but I also don't want to worry about a little woman like you, just try as you say, lest you lose and deny. ”
"Don't make up your mind so quickly about who wins or loses, you also put the materials on the table, and the two of us each began to discern each other's materials. Jiang Hongye naturally heard the accusation in Su Yaowen's words, but she held back her anger, so as not to destroy the original intention of the competition.
Su Yaowen rummaged through the storage bag, and after a while, he took out a piece of pitch-black ore from it. The shape of this piece of ore is a little uneven, and it looks extremely ugly, but the shape of the appearance and the characteristics of the score are indeed very similar to the ore of Jiang Hongye, but the size is only a few times different.
The smaller piece of ore was gently placed on the table by Su Yaowen, but there was no shaking just now, and I don't know if it was because the ore was small in size, so that the weight was slightly inferior, or because Su Yaowen deliberately placed it carefully.
After Su Yaowen put the ore he took out on the table, it meant that the competition had officially begun. However, Bai Xingkong still shouted according to the routine, and then Jiang Hongye began to study the ore that the other party took out, and did not pay attention to Su Yaowen anymore.
Distinguishing objects is a basic skill that all refiners must master, and it is also the first thing to learn when getting started. In addition to reading a lot of books and being familiar with the materials of various materials, it is also necessary to know the specific qualities of the materials in front of you. If the refiner can't accurately discern the quality of the material, it will affect the subsequent refining, which is not a small problem.
When the selection of materials is not well controlled, there will be errors in the subsequent refining, whether it is the coordination of various materials, or the heat and time of the refining process, it also needs to be very accurate, and there can be no mistakes. Even if it is the same material, it will have different requirements because of the difference in quality, if the match is wrong, the magic weapon or elixir refined, the quality will be different, it may be better, it may be worse.
Distinguishing materials, in fact, is similar to the doctor's treatment, and has its corresponding means, which is the development and evolution of refining technology for millions of years. First of all, you can see with your eyes, then touch with your hands, and then smell with your nose to get specific information about the material obtained. If it is a special refining tradition, there will also be other means of discernment, such as tasting with the tongue or hearing with the ear, all of which have their special effects. The details of the material can be discerned.
Jiang Hongye, as a refining master, also needs to examine the means of distinguishing objects when she is promoted to the assessment, so she is very calm now, even if Su Yaowen is also a refining master, she does not feel that she will be inferior in the slightest.
Although his heart was not chaotic, Jiang Hongye's face at this time was indeed a little strange. This oddity is not because of worry, but because of a puzzle that cannot be figured out. When Su Yaowen took out another piece of black ore just now, she was already very surprised, because the materials taken out by the two looked too similar, except for the difference in size, there was no difference.
After Jiang Hongye's round of careful inspection, she couldn't see anything special, and she could almost conclude that the ore that Su Yaowen took out was the same material as her own. Although before the competition, there was no rule that the two sides could not use the same material, but since Jiang Hongye took out this material, it also means that she knows the bottom of the black ore. It was impossible for Su Yaowen not to know this, but he did it anyway, which made Jiang Hongye wonder, what was the reason for the other party's move?
When Jiang Hongye carefully discerned the materials, Su Yaowen's side was in a different situation, he just looked at the ore provided by the other party casually, and then didn't pay much attention to it. Then he took a few steps back, found a flat place, and took out a chaise longue made of bamboo from the storage bag, and rested on it, it seemed that he had just been woken up and needed to get some sleep.
When Su Yaowen took out the recliner, Jiang Hongye naturally saw it, and he was almost about to scold at that time, which was not only the other party underestimating himself, but also an insult. Fortunately, Jiang Hongye quickly calmed down, and after taking a few deep breaths, she felt that this was Su Yaowen's harassing behavior, wanting to interfere with her mentality, and then making a wrong judgment, and then her spirit became more concentrated.
In the end, whether this is a plan to disturb the enemy, no one at the scene is sure, anyway, except for Jiang Hongye, the other four people can only express deep speechlessness, is this really a competition? Qu Ruyan felt that Su Yaowen seemed to be very inappropriate to do this, and wanted to step forward to persuade a few words, but was stopped by Bai Xingkong, after the competition began, no one was allowed to interfere with the people inside, otherwise it would ruin the competition.
"How is it? Have you seen enough?" After more than a quarter of an hour, Su Yaowen woke up slowly after receiving a secret call from Xiaomi, and then yawned, and his attitude can be described as very arrogant.
Glancing at Su Yaowen, a thick annoyance flashed in her eyes, Jiang Hongye used a lot of concentration to not scold, but her tone had become extremely cold, "Black rock spar, produced in the Black Rock Mountains, the characteristics of this ore are heavy and hard, each inch weighs a hundred catties, it is the first choice for refining blunt weapon attack magic weapons, but unfortunately your piece of ore is too small, it can only be used as an auxiliary material, not the main material." Your piece of ore is about the size of a palm, weighs about 2,310 catties, and takes 3,300 years to form.
After listening to Jiang Hongye's introduction, Su Yaowen smiled, and did not say that the other party was wrong, but he did not express his approval, but said to himself: "Miss Jiang's material is black rock spar, slightly larger than a child's head, weighing 13,412 catties, forming 1,543 years, unearthed in the veins about 200 zhang deep in the Black Rock Mountains, do you think what I said is right?"
Jiang Hongye frowned, a trace of solemnity flashed in her heart, Su Yaowen's words just now were more detailed than hers in terms of weight. The weight data that Su Yaowen said was directly accurate to single digits, but Jiang Hongye could only ensure the accuracy of ten digits, and the rest needed to be estimated, so she didn't say it. If it is proved that the data Su Yaowen said is accurate, then her ability to distinguish in terms of weight will not be able to squeeze the other party.
In addition to the weight data, the data that Su Yaowen just said is more detailed than her in many places. For example, the estimation of molding time can only be used to approximate when the ore was formed by the texture and weathering of the surface of the material.
Jiang Hongye was able to say that the data of close to three thousand three hundred years was actually quite remarkable, and most refining masters might not be able to do it. However, Su Yaowen is even more perverted, and he also accurately counts the year data to single digits, if this product is pretending to be forced, once it is confirmed to be true, it will be really terrifying.
In addition to the weight and molding time, Su Yaowen also said that the ore was dug out from a position 200 zhang deep in the mountain range, which was what Jiang Hongye was surprised by. She has been in contact with refining tools since she was a child, and she has never slacked off in her learning in distinguishing objects, but she has never heard of it, just by looking at it, you can know where the ore is unearthed, this slut won't be playing tricks on me, right?
"What's the matter? Why don't you have anything to say? Isn't this black rock spar yours? It's wrong, don't you know?" Su Yaowen lit a cigarette for himself and took a leisurely puff, while his body kept leaning on the recliner, and he didn't mean to get up at all.
"There is not the slightest mistake in the weight, and I can only confirm that the year of production is about 1,500 years, and the specific data needs to be checked on my mobile phone. Jiang Hongye said with a little reluctance, she felt that Su Yaowen's current attitude was not like a bluff at all, so she was very likely to lose the first round.
Bai Xingkong heard Jiang Hongye's words and knew that Su Yaowen's answer was not wrong, and Jiang Hongye didn't seem to be wrong, but the answer was not detailed enough, and this game could actually be barely considered a draw. "Senior Brother Su, since both of you guessed correctly, and Miss Jiang is just a little worse than you, she should have sentenced you to win. However, as far as I know, it is generally only necessary to judge the weight of the ten digits and the molding time of the hundred digits, so it should be okay to judge this round of ties, right?"
"Senior Brother Bai!" Qu Ruyan frowned when he heard this, "Since it is a high evaluation, it is naturally the stronger one who wins, and Senior Brother Su's ability to distinguish things is stronger, why do you say that the two are tied, I don't think it's appropriate." ”
"It's true that Su Gongzi is better, and he should win. Yin Yushuang actually didn't support Jiang Hongye, not only Su Yaowen was surprised, but the other three who were the referees were also puzzled.
"Before the competition began, I didn't explain this problem, so Sister Momiji was negligent, and if she was asked to distinguish things again, she might be able to do it, so I think it's okay to draw. Yan Ziqi did not support Su Yaowen, who he met earlier, but stood on the front line with Bai Xingkong, which is a bit heavy and light on friends.
"Man, what do you say?" Su Yaowen didn't reveal any thoughts about what Bai Xingkong and the others said, but looked at Jiang Hongye, wanting to hear her plans.
"It's me who loses, I can't get the weight down to single digits unless I'm given two quarters of an hour, and I'm really inferior to you. Jiang Hongye didn't think about playing tricks, so he directly admitted defeat.
"Well, although you are a bit arrogant and unreasonable, but your character is still good, if you lose, you lose, you don't die to the end, it seems that you are not a full body shortcoming. Su Yaowen smiled and continued: "Fortunately, you didn't make any small moves, otherwise you would have lost even more ugly." ”
"What do you mean?" Jiang Hongye felt that the other party said this, as if there was something in the words.
"You pick up the ore with your hand, and you'll know later. Su Yaowen took a puff of cigarette and didn't say it too clearly.
Jiang Hongye flashed a puzzled look, she didn't know what the other party meant by this, but she felt that since Su Yaowen said this, she would never mean to harm her, so she went to get the black rock spar on the table with confidence.
"Huh?" Jiang Hongye concluded that it was more than two thousand catties of ore, and it was not originally put in her heart, so when she reached out to take it, she just used ordinary strength, but she found that she couldn't pick it up.
Jiang Hongye knew that his previous judgment was wrong just by virtue of the situation just now, and this was not a trivial matter. If Jiang Hongye felt that Su Yaowen was only better than her because of the accuracy of distinguishing objects before, but now there is a serious mistake, it is a problem of her ability.
Jiang Hongye was worthy of being a genius refiner of the Spirit Treasure Sect, and after a short period of distraction, he quickly thought of the reason for his mistake. In order to verify his conjecture, Jiang Hongye stretched out to the ore again, but this time his strength increased a lot, and he even blessed the aura in the palm of his hand, so that his strength was improved.
"Thirty-five thousand catties!" Jiang Hongye's hands were blessed by aura, although she was able to pick up the piece of ore that was less than the size of her fist, but from her slightly trembling arms, it could be known that she had used all her strength to be able to pick up this piece of ore.
"How is it?" Su Yaowen smiled evilly, with a smell of successful tricks.
"I lost......" Jiang Hongye slowly put the ore back on the table, because it was unstable, and it made the table shake for a while, which was even more powerful than her piece of ore.
"This is the black rock crystal, which is a concentrated ore compressed by a large number of black rock crystals, two ores of the same size, but the weight and hardness of the black rock crystalllite are more than 100 times stronger, and it is a first-class refining material. These two materials are difficult to distinguish by appearance alone, I saw you lift the weight lightly before, only thought that the weight was not large, only to think that it was a black rock spar, but I didn't expect it to be a loss here. ”
This was Su Yaowen's calculation, he knew that Jiang Hongye would use the black rock spar as the first round of identification materials, so he deliberately used the black rock spar. When placing the materials, he used his super physical fitness to slowly put down the ore, which made Jiang Hongye have an illusion that it was the same black rock spar, so he fell into the trap.
Jiang Hongye never thought that she had already fallen into the scheme at the beginning, thinking that she knew the materials taken out by the other party, and she fell directly into misdirection, and she didn't realize that this was Su Yaowen's plan, she lost aggrieved, but she also lost unjustly.
