The stall at the far end looks a bit shabbier than the other stalls I've seen just now. It just has an old gray cloth on the ground and a few items placed on it. It's so gray that you can't tell what the original stall is.
A colorful old-fashioned wooden bead abacus, a pair of jade wine glasses, an emerald green jade bracelet, a rusty copper coin, and a small bronze tripod the size of a basketball with a mottled appearance!
In addition, there are a few words crookedly 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, sitting casually on two bricks stacked together. He is thin, with dark skin, deep-set eye sockets, and obvious dark circles around his eyes. He is wearing gray coarse shorts.
, exposing the thick leg hair on his calves and wearing a black hat, his whole outfit seemed out of tune with modern society.
Strangely, Lin Fan actually felt a sense of death coming from his body.
Logically speaking, death energy generally only appears in people who are dying or already dead, but not in living people, especially in this bustling place and at noon in midsummer, when Yang energy is at its strongest.
When the time comes, the dead energy will evaporate if it is exposed even a little bit.
But the death energy in this person is still lingering and is very stubborn, which is a bit strange.
However, Lin Fan quickly thought of a possibility. This person was probably a tomb robber, also known as a tomb robber. Because the items on his stall all exuded a faint aura of death, he probably just
It wasn't long after it was dug out. If it had been longer, the death energy would have dissipated long ago.
Although there are not many things in the stall of the hat man, and the appearance is not good, they are all really valuable things. The abacus, the jade glass and the bracelet are all antiques from a certain age, but they are worth one hundred and eighty thousand.
, but Lin Fan didn't like it at all, but it was the copper coin and the small bronze tripod that caught Lin Fan's attention.
Although the copper coin was the smallest in size, it had the strongest aura of death, and it showed no signs of dissipating or weakening under the scorching sun, which was even more strange.
Lin Fan thought that this copper coin should have been pressed into the dead man's mouth and buried together. After a long time, it absorbed the dead energy of the corpse, so it was like this.
Lin Fan had heard some sayings that when ancient people were buried, they would press a copper coin or jade object into their mouths. Firstly, it was to depress their tongues and hope that they would not talk nonsense when they arrived in the underworld, so as to avoid misfortune. Secondly, I wanted him to stop talking nonsense on his way to the underworld.
When traveling, he can bribe some little ghosts to save him from suffering, and he can buy some food on the way so that he won't starve. The third is that it has antiseptic effect. I hope his body will not decay so quickly, so he can be found when he returns to the earth.
body of.
It is said that when the Empress Dowager Cixi was buried, she had a luminous pearl in her mouth, which was priceless. Her tomb also attracted countless tomb robbers.
Whether there is any basis for these claims will not be stated for now. Let’s just say that this copper coin, an inconspicuous little thing, actually contains such a strong aura of death.
For ordinary people, this thing is definitely a disaster rather than a blessing. If you buy it and keep it at home, over time, the whole family will be invaded by the death energy, their health will deteriorate, and various disasters will slowly appear. Moreover, modern medicine cannot detect it at all.
No cause can be found.
It could take as little as three months, or as long as half a year, before you have to go down and find the owner of the copper coin.
For ordinary people, this death energy is a great terror that they must avoid, but in Lin Fan's eyes, it is the extremely pure energy in this world!
On Earth, where the aura of heaven and earth is thin, if there is no external aid, even with Lin Fan's talent, he will be very slow on the path of cultivation.
And the death energy contained in this copper coin is pure energy that can help Lin Fan improve his strength!
This death energy cannot directly improve the cultivation level, but it is of higher value to Lin Fan because it can improve Lin Fan's spiritual consciousness cultivation level.
The importance of spiritual consciousness has been mentioned before, so I won't go into details here. Anyway, when he saw the copper coin, Lin Fan immediately decided to take it.
As for how to deal with the death energy, Lin Fan could think of more than a hundred ways with his eyes closed. This was not a problem.
Lin Fan turned his attention to the small bronze cauldron again.
The small tripod is a three-legged round tripod with three legs. It is about 40 centimeters high and more than 20 centimeters in diameter. The tripod is round in shape and is engraved with the pattern of two dragons playing with pearls. There are also some small seal characters written on it.
Has two ears.
The tripod was a utensil used for cooking and storing meat in ancient times. However, with the development and changes of history, people gave the tripod a more profound meaning. Later, the tripod was regarded as a symbol of the country's important weapon, state and power.
, the word "ding" is also endowed with extended meanings such as prominence, dignity and grandness.
The most famous legend about tripods is that Yu cast Jiuding. It is said that Xia Yu collected Jiu Mu’s gold and cast Jiuding under Jingshan Mountain to symbolize Jiuzhou, and engraved figures of demons and monsters on it to alert people and prevent them from being harmed.
Although the small bronze tripod in front of you is not a sacred artifact made by Dayu, it is not considered a vulgar object. The main reason is that its material is quite special. It is not a pure bronze vessel, but actually mixed with a little black gold and iron.
Black gold iron is a material with spatial properties. It is considered the lowest type of this type of material. It is very different from void stone or black gold, but it is not easy to see it on the earth. Lin
It only needs a little refining to be able to exert the functions of black gold and iron.
In addition to the special material, the small cauldron was actually carved with a simple formation. Although it had become ineffective over the years, Lin Fan could still tell that the effect of the formation was to accelerate the increase in temperature within the cauldron.
It seems that this small tripod was used for alchemy in the past.
Lin Fan couldn't help but think to himself.
Originally, Lin Fan thought that no one on earth knew the art of alchemy. Now it seems that this guess has to be questioned. The Yangyang Xia Kingdom has lasted for five thousand years. Since the ancient martial arts system can be evolved, how can someone figure out how to make alchemy?
The method is not impossible.
But these are not important. What is important is that this small cauldron is suitable for use as a medicinal cauldron.
The black gold iron containing spatial attributes can make the volume of this small cauldron much larger than it appears. 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 hopes to obtain at this stage.
.
Lin Fan just glanced briefly and figured out the details of several items in the hat man's stall. However, others did not have his spiritual awareness, which could be called a plug-in. If he were not an expert, it would be impossible to discover it.
These inconspicuous things are actually really good things.
The man in the bamboo hat actually has his own personality. He doesn't worry about the stall at all. He just lowers his head and smokes a cigarette. He doesn't hawk or boast, and he looks like he will buy something if he likes it.
Therefore, basically no one cares about his stall.
This was a great convenience to Lin Fan.
However, Lin Fan did not rush over to inquire, because Qiqi was still looking at the young ladies wearing Hanfu over there with her big clear eyes, so Lin Fan did not disturb her interest.
