Chapter 8 Purifying the Spirit Basin
"How can this be?"
Chen Hongyun's face was filled with disbelief and his eyes widened. With the eyes of his treasure appraiser's apprentice, he could not see any difference in the black stone. Unexpectedly, there was a spiritual stone inside.
"According to the rules, Wanzhen Pavilion charges a handling fee of 5% of the gambling amount. This is the golden ticket and treasure after deducting the fees.
After saying this, the white-bearded treasure appraiser handed the middle-grade spiritual stone and the Rainbow Broken Sword, plus ninety-five gold tickets, to Lin Yu.
"Thanks."
Lin Yu took it with both hands, and then looked at Chen Hongyun: "Do you want to continue?"
"Yes, I want to bet two hundred gold coins this time."
Chen Hongyun's face was ashen and he gritted his teeth and replied.
He is a dignified treasure appraiser apprentice and cannot lose to a loser. He must fight for his reputation.
"If you have the guts, yes, I accept it."
Lin Yu was afraid that Chen Hongyun would regret it, so he immediately agreed.
"Okay, let's start right away."
Chen Hongyun wanted to avenge his previous humiliation and didn't want to waste a second.
After everything was ready, Lin Yu and Chen Hongyun started gambling again.
This time, Chen Hongyun was much more cautious. He used smell, look, touch, listen, look and other methods to identify the treasure. He was determined to choose the most profitable treasure.
On the other hand, look at Lin Yu.
He was just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, poking around here and there, looking like a curious baby, without using any treasure appraisal skills, as if he didn't understand treasure hunting at all.
"Is this kid picking out vegetables? He's picking here and looking there. He doesn't look serious at all."
"I don't think he is as casual about picking dishes as he is, and he doesn't take it seriously at all."
"With this look and actions, I feel like he doesn't know how to identify treasures at all."
…
The onlookers observed Lin Yu and felt more and more that he was the only one who won because of his luck.
"Hey, I was overthinking it. I'm really a novice at appraising treasures."
After Lin Yu selected a medium-grade spiritual stone, the white-bearded treasure appraiser also began to pay close attention to Lin Yu. He thought it might be the apprentice of a treasure appraiser.
But after careful observation, he shook his head with disdain in his eyes.
This Lin Yu is just like a pig gnawing cabbage, chewing everything indiscriminately. He has no professional skills in identifying treasures. He is a complete novice in identifying treasures.
"I've chosen this fan."
Twelve minutes later, Chen Hongyun was the first to shout excitedly.
Then he picked up a somewhat worn paper folding fan. This folding fan had a simple shape and was engraved with various patterns. However, it was very messy and looked like a fake.
"Qingfan, a medium-grade spiritual weapon, priced at 120 gold coins, worth 200 gold coins, with a profit of 80 gold coins."
Whitebeard removed the seal, touched his beard and nodded appreciatively: "Mr. Chen is worthy of being the proud disciple of Master Baiyun, the second-grade treasure appraiser. He actually made money from gambling twice, and the profit was higher every time. It's amazing."
"It's so powerful, it hits every time, it's like a treasure hunter."
"It's too profitable to be a treasure appraiser. I want to learn how to appraise treasures too."
Everyone was amazed, envious, and jealous.
"Lin Yu, I don't believe you can beat me."
Chen Hongyun was confident this time.
When he was just hunting for treasure, he paid attention to Lin Yu and found that he was completely like a headless fly. After scratching around, he instantly understood that this guy had just chosen the spirit stone. It was like a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, and he was lucky. There was no trace of it at all.
The ability to appraise treasures.
"There are still three minutes left, young man. I see that you have visited the entire treasure hunting area and you haven't seen the treasure you like yet?"
Someone asked from the side.
"immediately."
Lin Yu looked at the entire treasure hunting area, which contained about tens of thousands of items, and found that most of the items were not worth the price tag. Only a small number of items could make a small profit.
And there are only about twenty items, and the profit exceeds one hundred gold coins.
In the end, Lin Yu chose a foot-washing stone basin priced at 100 gold coins. The stone skin was very thin and shed sand.
"I said, little brother, you really have a unique vision. You dare to choose a footbath. Such a thin stone cannot contain spiritual stones or treasures."
"This stone basin is covered with sand, and the workmanship is extremely poor. It looks like a scrap made by a stonemason on the street, and you bought it for a hundred gold coins. You are really stupid and have too much money."
"Again, you want to be fooled? You don't know how to detect treasures at all. You really think that hunting for treasures depends on luck."
"I could choose a treasure with my eyes closed better than this 'footbath'. This kid won completely by luck. This time he guessed again."
Among the onlookers, there were a few good-hearted reminders, but most of them were sarcastic.
"Any stone tool with a thin stone skin and loose sand cannot be selected. I don't know this common sense, and I have the nerve to gamble. A blind cat cannot always encounter a dead mouse.
Chen Hongyun shook his folding fan, showed a mocking smile, walked around the footbath, and laughed: "What a great footbath!"
People around him also laughed and teased him constantly.
"Maybe I'm lucky?"
Lin Yu smiled faintly.
At this time, the white-bearded treasure appraiser came over. He used a special technique to unlock the seal of the footbath, and suddenly an ancient atmosphere rushed towards him.
"What's this smell?"
Everyone was stunned.
A very strong aura of prehistoric times spread out, echoing the spiritual energy in the body, and those who heard it felt that the spiritual energy seemed to be more condensed.
"Is this a high-grade magic weapon to purify the spirit basin?"
"No way, in such a small place like ours, a high-grade magic weapon actually appears? This is a magic weapon only possessed by the seventh realm of the mortal world, the Tribulation Realm."
"I can feel the effect of this spiritual basin on improving and condensing spiritual energy. Lin Yu must be very lucky. He actually found a high-grade magic weapon with full functions."
Everyone present was stunned and looked shocked.
"It is not a high-grade magic weapon, the Purification Spirit Basin, but an imitation forged by a master of weapon refinement. However, although it is an imitation, it is the best among top-grade spiritual weapons. It is worth about a thousand gold coins, and because of its special functions, it is valuable.
There is no market, and the real value is even more than one thousand and five gold coins."
The white-bearded treasure appraiser took a deep breath, calmed down his excitement, and spoke slowly.
"Impossible, it must be an illusion."
Chen Hongyun's face turned completely green and he froze in place holding a folding fan. He did not expect that Lin Yu was so lucky and the treasure he selected was so valuable.
"Thank you again, Mr. Hongyun, for the two hundred gold coins and the fan. Brothers, come and visit 666."
Lin Yu stepped forward happily and couldn't help but joke in the Internet language of his previous life. He happily took Chen Hongyun's folding fan, put away the 190 gold ticket, and put it together with the middle-grade spiritual stone, the Rainbow Broken Sword, etc.
In the footbath.
"Is there anyone else who wants to gamble? This time my bet is this purification basin. Whoever beats me will get it. If he loses, just give me a thousand gold coins."
Lin Yu shouted seductively at everyone.
The gambling money came in so fast and so satisfying that he became addicted to gambling.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, all hesitating. This purifying basin is really too tempting.
This is a rare spiritual energy purification basin that can only be found. Owning it can not only improve your cultivation, but also condense your spiritual energy, making your strength more than a level higher.
But in the end no one stood up.
On the one hand, he was worried that Lin Yu was too lucky and his own skills in treasure appraisal were not good enough, so he did not dare to gamble.
On the other hand, one thousand gold coins is too much. For a small family, all the funds are only more than one thousand gold coins. Who dares to spend all their money on gambling?
Not even anyone from the ten major families in Hurricane City can casually take out a thousand gold coins.
If Chen Hongyun were not a treasure appraiser, even if he was a direct descendant of one of the ten major families, he would not be able to carry three hundred gold coins with him, let alone one thousand gold coins.
"Oh, no one is gambling anymore, so don't be a coward."
Lin Yu looked regretful. He wanted to win some more gold coins, but these people were too timid and couldn't help but get a little excited.
"What are you so proud of? Let me take care of you."
