Chapter 235: If there is fate, we will meet again elsewhere
Finally, the small stone statue was entrusted to the "Magic Association" in the form of an auction, and it will be auctioned tomorrow night.
Calculating the time, after the auction is over, it will be the "star assessment", and the time is just right.
Lin Xi had already made up her mind to go directly to the "Sleeping Forest" after the assessment.
Although he was delayed in this city for a few more days, he would still arrive before Bai Yueguang and the others.
The old man who evaluated the situation still had a lot of things to do. After completing the relevant procedures, he said goodbye and left.
"Lin Xi, I admire you so much."
After there were no outsiders, Cai Die could no longer contain her admiration.
"What do you admire about me?"
Lin Xi looked at Cai Die, who was even more excited than his client, and felt a little funny.
"You are so amazing. You can buy two things at random and sell them for such a sky-high price. I don't think I can make that much money selling potions for the rest of my life."
Cai Die's excitement was not fake, and the envy in her eyes was also real.
"Alchemists are also very powerful, but you haven't reached that level yet." Lin Xi said with a smile.
No matter which world, elixirs and potions are consumables, and in many cases, their value even exceeds other items.
Precious elixirs are related to a person's life and cultivation, and those who need them will not hesitate to spend all their financial resources.
"Where are we going now?" Monroe interjected and asked.
"Let's just take a walk first."
What Lin Xi meant by walking around casually was actually walking around in the "Magic Association".
Due to the special preferential treatment given by the evaluation old man, they were able to enter the exchange meeting that only star magicians were eligible to participate in.
Many magicians will share the problems they encounter with other magicians and discuss them.
Entering the lobby on the second floor, although there are much fewer people, you can see that the people inside are all characters of extraordinary temperament.
Either a magician who has achieved star status, or a local dignitary.
During the exchanges between magicians, some people will also bring out some strange items, barter with other magicians, or sell them directly.
Of course, there are some people who simply want the answer to a question, so they set items as rewards.
Here, good things are far easier to impress other magicians than money.
Lin Xi met such a person!
"Sir, how do you sell this four-legged tripod of yours?"
Lin Xi asked the magician in front of her.
This magician was a man in his thirties, wearing a black magic robe and holding a long-handled staff. He was leaning on the wall and looking at Lin Xi and the others.
"Not for sale, only for delivery!"
The man's accent didn't sound like a local's.
"Free gift?"
Cai Die couldn't help but interrupt.
The man glanced at Cai Die, then tapped a piece of paper with writing on it at his feet with the staff in his hand.
There is only one line on the note: How can water and fire merge?
"What does this note mean?"
Cai Die leaned over and took a closer look. She clearly knew the words on it, but when they were put together, she was a little confused.
"If anyone can help me answer the questions on the paper, this cauldron will be given away for free!" the man said seriously.
"Is this note a question?"
"good!"
"Water and fire can't mix!" Cai Die looked at the man in surprise.
She thought this man was really interesting. He actually used something that everyone knew as a question. Was this just to attract people's attention?
"That's not the answer I wanted!" the man replied simply.
"Can water and fire mix?" Cai Die asked.
The man was silent and seemed unwilling to say more.
"Water and fire can naturally blend together!"
At this moment, Lin Xi suddenly spoke.
If someone else had said this, Cai Die would have scoffed.
But when these words came from the mouth of Lin Xi, whom she admired and admired more and more, the taste was different.
Cai Die immediately transformed into a curious baby: "Ah? Really? Can water and fire really blend together?"
"Even two mutually exclusive energies can complement each other if they find a point of contact." Lin Xi answered seriously.
The best proof is Lando, who combines light and darkness, but it's a pity that she is not here.
"What contact point?" Cai Die asked.
Lin Xi's answer just now was too one-sided. No one else understood it, let alone her.
"How will you prove your point?"
There was a hint of ups and downs on the man's calm face, and he stared straight at Lin Xi.
The look in his eyes was filled with expectation and suspicion.
"I think you should also agree with the view that 'water and fire can blend together', but you have never found the proof, so you use this method to seek help from others."
Lin Xi raised the corners of his mouth, and while he was speaking, he covered the Fang Ding with his spiritual sense.
Just like what he felt at the beginning, this is a cauldron made of good materials. If it is refined again, it should be able to become a good medicinal cauldron.
"Yes, as you said, I also think that water and fire can be blended." After a pause, the man asked seriously, "How do you want to prove the point you just said?"
"As long as it is proven, will this square tripod be mine?" Lin Xi asked without answering.
"good!"
"I can prove it to you, but I won't teach you the secret." Lin Xi said seriously.
"I just want to know the conclusion!"
The man's hand holding the staff tightened subconsciously.
"Watch it, I'll only do it once."
When Lin Xi spoke, she took a step forward and stretched out her hands.
How could Cai Die miss such a wonderful moment? Her eyes wanted to pop out of her sockets.
As a water magician, Mengluo was also very curious about this question and unconsciously moved closer.
It seemed that Lin Xi deliberately waited until everyone's attention was focused on him before he started his performance.
call!
On the palm of his left hand, a ball of flame suddenly appeared. It was just an ordinary red and yellow flame.
Wow!
On the palm of his right hand, a column of water suddenly emerged. It was just transparent ordinary liquid water.
It's such an ordinary fire and water, but it seems to have some kind of magic power at this moment, making it impossible for everyone to take their eyes away from it.
Lin Xi held one fire and one water in her palms and began to slowly move closer to each other.
The two hands got closer and closer, and everyone subconsciously held their breath.
As the distance got closer, the most obvious change was that the flame on the left palm began to shake.
It looked like the flames might go out at any moment.
Can these two energies really be fused together?
"combine!"
Suddenly, Lin Xi's hands suddenly accelerated, and the palms of both hands came together.
There was a snap and crisp applause, which rang in everyone's ears like muffled thunder.
Is this the end?
Just when this thought came to everyone's mind, Lin Xi's palms began to slowly separate.
sand!
The moment the palms separated, a strange sound was made.
Immediately afterwards, two colors of red and blue came into view.
What is that?
Could it really be done?
When everyone saw it clearly, they were all stunned.
An irregular object was suspended between Lin Xi's palms.
The outside is burning with red flames, while the inside is swirling with blue liquid. The two energies are blended but distinct.
Why did the water that should have been transparent turn blue?
This problem was insignificant at this moment, because everyone witnessed the magical scene of water and fire merging.
The liquid water inside obviously became the fuel for the peripheral flames.
The flame burned extremely actively. Although it looked like an ordinary flame, it was given a different meaning at this moment.
Just when everyone was looking at it attentively, Lin Xi snapped her fingers.
The water and fire that were originally fused together dissipated instantly, and everything just now seemed like a dream.
The scene was quiet, and everyone had not recovered yet.
My thoughts are still stuck on the magical scene I just saw.
"Is this Fang Ding mine now?"
Lin Xi stared at the man who was stunned on the spot like a wooden sculpture.
The man came back to his senses and asked: "How is it possible? How did you do it?"
"Have you regretted it?"
Lin Xi narrowed her eyes and stared at the other person sharply.
The man hurriedly said: "What I said is like the water being thrown away. This square tripod is now yours. I just didn't understand how water and fire can be fused together so easily?"
Although he firmly believes that water and fire can be fused, this has never been confirmed.
In his opinion, even if it can be done, it must be extremely difficult!
However, the scene he just saw almost caused his outlook on life to collapse.
How could it be done so easily? It couldn't be an illusion, right?
"Haven't you heard the saying: Meetings are easy!"
As Lin Xi spoke, she put the Fang Ding into the storage ring.
When there are no interruptions, he will study together.
There are still many items that have not been restored. If we hurry up, we should be able to catch up with the upcoming auction.
"Excuse me, please wait a moment."
When the man saw Lin Xi was about to leave, he hurriedly spoke out.
Lin Xi was in a good mood at the moment. She stopped and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Can I watch it again?"
The man looked serious.
In the scene where water and fire merged just now, he always felt that he had missed something.
"Our deal is over."
Lin Xi didn't want to do anything troublesome.
"I am willing to use items as payment."
After the man finished speaking, he began to take out items one by one.
They are all ancient-looking things, and I don’t know where he got them.
Lin Xi glanced at the newly brought out things by the man and asked with some disappointment: "Are these the only things?"
"Others are not as valuable as these." The man was honest.
He took out everything he thought was valuable.
"Whether it's valuable or not, I have the final say. Take it out and have a look." Lin Xi said with a smile.
Because the man is so persistent, no matter whether there is something that impresses him in the end, he will show it to the other person again.
Sure enough, the man took out some miscellaneous items, including clothes, books, dry food, seeds...
"Where did you get this?"
Lin Xi suddenly pointed at a gourd-shaped object and asked.
"this?"
The man was stunned and picked up the gourd.
This was just a container he used to hold water. He didn't expect the other party to ask about it.
Caidi and the others who were following Lin Xi immediately turned their attention to the gourd.
Based on their understanding of Lin Xi, this gourd is definitely not ordinary.
However, their knowledge was limited, and they couldn't see any clues after looking at it for a long time.
The gourd is no bigger than a normal water bag. It has a dark yellow appearance, a smooth body and looks a bit old.
And as the man picked it up, the sound of water sloshing inside could be heard.
No matter how you look at it, this is a water hyacinth!
At this moment, they couldn't help but wonder, was Lin Xi really just asking casually?
"Can't you say it?" Lin Xi asked again.
"No, it's because it's been a long time." The man pondered for a while, and then said, "This gourd was given to me by an old man who was herding herds. Yes, that's right. The old man was grateful to me for scaring away the thieves."
"About where?" Lin Xi asked.
"A mountain village on the outskirts of the Sleeping Forest. I have forgotten the specific name of that village."
The man replied while recalling.
"Okay!" Lin Xi raised the corner of his mouth, "I want this."
This seemingly ordinary gourd actually has a weak spiritual energy and its material is not ordinary. It can actually refine a magic weapon.
Although Lin Xi even owns a magic weapon, having one more magic weapon is not a bad thing.
It seems like I have to go to the Sleeping Forest.
The man handed the gourd to Lin Xi readily, and even said, "You can also choose another item."
"No, this is enough."
Lin Xi put the gourd away with a smile, and then began his performance again.
Perhaps because she was in a better mood, Lin Xi deliberately slowed down her movements when performing the "Meeting of Water and Fire" again.
At this time, everyone noticed that inside the fusion of water and fire, there was also the power of thunder and lightning!
The power of thunder and lightning allows the liquid to be decomposed into energy that is absorbed by the flame.
Of course, this is just an appearance.
In fact, there is a fourth kind of energy that cannot be seen - the power of the holy soul!
Because of the addition of the Holy Soul Power, the three types of energy can settle down.
"Did you see clearly this time?"
Lin Xi did not remove the energy ball in his hand for a long time, just to give the other party more time to observe.
"Thanks!"
The man looked away, as if he had gained some kind of relief, and leaned directly against the wall.
"One word of advice, don't try it easily if you don't have enough strength."
After dissipating the energy in her hands, Lin Xi gave a special warning.
"I understand." The man's expression returned to calmness.
Even if you look closely, you will find that there is a little more sparkle in his eyes.
Lin Xi had no habit of inquiring into other people's privacy, so she said goodbye and left directly.
Not far away, the man's voice came over again: "Thank you for clarifying my doubts!"
Lin Xi did not respond to the other party. If there is fate, we will meet again somewhere else!
The exchanges here are huge, and if you don't pay attention, you may get lost.
Lin Xi was about to move towards the next object that interested him, but at this moment, a soft and crisp girl's voice came.
"Your Majesty!"
The voice is very penetrating and directly attracts the attention of many people.
To be called a "venerable", one must have at least a five-star level of magical attainments.
Lin Xi looked over and found that they were actually those people who were attacked by "The End of the Gods" last night.
The person who just shouted was the girl in the pink skirt.
The girl pulled her sister and strode over, looking very excited.
