Chapter 372 The humble booth

The stall on the edge looked even more dilapidated than the other stalls I had seen before... well... it was a bit old, just a piece of gray cloth was placed on the ground, with a few items on it, an old wooden bead abacus with a gray and unrecognizable color, a pair of small jade wine glasses, an emerald green jade bracelet, a rusty copper coin, and... a small bronze tripod with a mottled appearance in the basketball size!

In addition, a few words were written in chalk on the ground next to it: If you are the one!

The stall owner is a middle-aged man in his forties. He sits casually on two bricks stuck together. He is thin, dark in skin, deep sleep, and has obvious dark circles around his eyes. He is wearing gray coarse cloth shorts, thick leg hair on his calves, and a black hat. His whole dress looks out of place with modern society.

Strangely, Lin Fan actually felt a sense of death from him.

Logically speaking, death energy usually only appears on people who are dying or dead, and it will not be found in living people, especially in this place where people are crowded, or at noon in midsummer, when the yang energy is at its peak, the death energy will evaporate if it is exposed a little.

But the death aura on this person's body condensed but did not dissipate, which was very stubborn, which was a bit strange.

However, Lin Fan soon thought of a possibility that this man was probably a fight, commonly known as a tomb robber, because the items on his stall also emitted a dead aura. It was probably not long before it was dug out. If it had been a long time, the dead aura would have dissipated long ago.

Although there are not many things on the stalls of the men in the hats and the appearance is not good, they are all truly valuable things. The abacus, the small jade wine glass and the bracelet are all antiques of the ages, which are worth 100,000 to 80,000 yuan. However, Lin Fan didn't look down on them at all. Instead, the copper coin and bronze cauldron attracted Lin Fan's attention.

Although the copper coin is the smallest, it is the strongest dead energy. And under the scorching sun, there is no sign of dissipation or weakening, which is even more peculiar.

Lin Fan thought that this copper coin should have been buried together by the dead man's mouth. After a long period of time, the dead energy of the corpse was absorbed, so this is how it happened.

Lin Fan has heard some sayings that when the ancients were buried, they would press a copper coin or jade in their mouths. First, to suppress their tongues, I hope that he would not talk nonsense when he arrived in the underworld, so as to avoid disaster. Second, I hope that he could bribe some little ghosts on the road to avoid suffering, and that he could buy some food on the road to avoid hunger. Third, it had anti-corrosion effects, and hoped that his body would not corrode so quickly, so he could find his body when he was resurrected.

It is said that when Empress Dowager Cixi was buried, she had a night pearl in her mouth, which was priceless, and her tomb attracted the covetousness of countless tomb robbers.

Is there any basis for these statements not to be expressed yet? Just talking about this copper coin, the inconspicuous little thing actually contains such a strong dead aura.

For ordinary people, this thing is definitely a disaster, not a blessing. If you buy it and keep it at home, over time, the whole family will be attacked by death energy, and your health will deteriorate, and various disasters will gradually appear. Moreover, modern medicine cannot find the cause of the disease.

It takes as short as three months or as long as half a year, and you have to go down to find the owner of the copper coin.

For ordinary people, this dead energy is a great horror that is beyond the reach of fear, but in Lin Fan's eyes, it is the extremely pure energy in this world!

On the earth where the spiritual energy is thin, if there is no external object assistance, even with Lin Fan's talent, he will walk quite slowly on the road of cultivation.

And the dead energy contained in this copper coin is the pure energy that can help Lin Fan improve his strength!

These dead energy cannot directly improve the level of cultivation, but it is more valuable to Lin Fan because it can improve Lin Fan's spiritual consciousness.

The importance of spiritual consciousness has been discussed in the previous article, so I will not repeat it here. Anyway, when I saw this copper coin, Lin Fan immediately decided to take it down.

As for how to deal with the dead aura, Lin Fan could think of no less than a hundred ways even with his eyes closed, and this is not a problem.

Lin Fan turned his attention to the bronze tripod again.

The small tripod is a three-legged round tripod with three legs, about forty centimeters high and more than twenty centimeters in diameter. The tripod body is round, carved with a pattern of two dragons playing with beads, and some small seal script fonts are written with two ears on it.

The tripod was used to cook meat and store meat in ancient times. However, with the development and changes of history, people gave the tripod a deeper meaning. Later, the tripod was regarded as a national weapon and a symbol of state and power. The word "dai" was also given extended meanings such as "distinguished", "noble", and "grand".

The most famous legend about tripods is that Yu casts the Nine Tripods. Legend has it that Xia Yu once collected the nine masters' gold to cast the nine tripods under Jingshan to symbolize the nine provinces and engraved figures of ghosts and monsters on it to make people alert and prevent them from being hurt.

Although the bronze tripod in front of me was not a magical artifact made by Dayu, it was not a vulgar thing. The main reason was that its material was rather special, not a simple bronze ware, but was actually mixed with a little black gold and iron.

Black gold and iron are materials with spatial attributes, and are considered the lowest-level ones in this type of material. They are different from the Void Stone or Xuankong Gold, but it is not easy to see them on the earth. Lin Fan only needs a little refining to play the role of black gold and iron.

In addition to the special materials, there is a simple formation carved in the small tripod. Although it has failed for a long time, Lin Fan can still tell that the effect of the formation is to accelerate the increase in the temperature inside the tripod.

It seems that this small tripod was used to refine alchemy.

Lin Fan couldn't help but think.

Originally, Lin Fan thought that no one on Earth should understand the art of alchemy. Now it seems that this speculation is probably going to be a question mark. Yangyang Xia Kingdom has been around for five thousand years. Since it can evolve into the ancient martial arts system, it is not impossible for someone to find out the method of alchemy.

But none of these matters. What is important is that this small cauldron is just right to be used as a medicine cauldron.

The black gold iron containing space attributes can make the small tripod much larger than the outside. After the heating array is restarted, it can also reduce the loss of Lin Fan's alchemy. It is definitely the auxiliary artifact that Lin Fan most hopes to get at this stage.

Lin Fan just glanced a few times and found out the details of the items on the booth man's stall, but others did not have the spiritual sense that was like a plug-in. If it weren't for experts, it would be impossible to find that these inconspicuous things were actually real good things.

The man in the hat has a personality and doesn't worry about the stall at all. He just lowered his head and smoked cigarettes with his "rattle", nor did he boast, nor did he boast, and he acted like he would buy it if he wanted to buy it or not.

Therefore, his stall is basically unattended.

This made Lin Fan very convenient.

However, Lin Fan did not rush to ask, because Qiqi was still looking at the few young ladies in Hanfu on the other side with her bright big eyes open, so Lin Fan did not disturb her interest.
