Chapter 37 Five Horses Enter the Map
Ma Wude has been the first to enter his study and enjoys his study, which is about ten feet long and wide. Among them, there are all kinds of famous handwritings on the wall, and three rows of large bookshelves with more than one foot, full of all kinds of books, especially business. A little later, Shen Shiyan was a little surprised to see the upgraded to level 2 Xiaolin Flying Knife, and its attributes can be said to have changed considerably. Although the increased health value and true qi value have not changed, its own external power and internal power attack attributes have been greatly improved, almost equivalent to having a second output that is not weaker than the ontology. As for the newly acquired active skill "Wind", it can undoubtedly be used as a killer at a critical moment. You might as well think about it. When you are trying to deal with your own monsters or player enemies and you can't stand it, you suddenly find that the speed of the flying knife gas in your left hand has suddenly increased by 20% - that is to say, the knife gas that could be launched 40 times per minute can now be launched 50 times. 10 more times, how surprised the other party will be!
Thinking of these, Shen Shiyan also paid attention to Ma Wude once again looked at himself with the previous surprised eyes, so he quickly put aside his distractions and soberly returned to Ma Wude's scene. After a brief interrogation with Ma Wude, the latter sat quite conceitedly in an old chair and leaned on the old man: "How many years, how many years. Brother Shen, do you know how many years of wind, frost and snow have been going through this chair I'm sitting on now? Ha ha, I think it's hard for you to guess, or let me tell you... huh? Where do you start? By the way, the story of this chair is about my grandfather's grandfather's grandfather who told us these descendants. By the way, this chair first appeared in the era of Wu Zetian in the Tang Dynasty. At that time... the ancestors of our Ma family happened to have some connections with the craftsman who made this chair..."
When he heard Ma Wude say these words, Shen Shiyan took care of himself and obviously noticed a little excitement and a lot of emotion on Ma Wude's expression. For some experience in this field, he guessed in his heart: This means that the other party can naturally maintain a very cautious and shrewd mentality, but When he talks about his favorite and cherished antiques, he inadvertently reveals his true feelings. This is like the all kinds of strong people I met in my previous life. Usually, they are powerful, invincible, shrewd and superb. But once they are put in the most relaxed state, they will be like middle-aged people who are too ordinary to be ordinary. If they don't pay attention during the conversation, they will reveal their own feet. If you continue to infer and want to improve your relationship with Ma Wude or get some benefits in him in the future, you can also take advantage of the other party's shortcoming and get some benefits more or less.
Shen Shiyan couldn't help but feel contemptuous of the other party: Ma Wude, who was boasting, would not have thought of a level 5 novice player in our area. In fact, while showing admiring and listening to his words, he was doing a very old-fashioned calculation in his heart. In this way, after Ma Wude finished talking about the old chair, he was obviously a little excited and simply got up with Shen Shiyan to tell many stories of those antiques one by one. There are wine glasses used by an emperor of a certain dynasty, but the golden light of the wine glass is clear that it is old, and some ancient inscriptions can be faintly seen on the rusty wine glass. There are also a peerless silk shirt that an emperor spoils his concubine. The workmanship is exquisite, and the silk can be called superior or even excellent. Now it is worth 10,000 taels. If it is auctioned in reality, even if it costs 5 million RMB, it will still be sold at a loss.
Shen Shiyan, who followed Ma Wude, maintained a faint smile on his face. At the same time, he listened to Ma Wude's invitation and stretched out his right hand to gently touch the antiques. He only felt that the touch was extremely real, uneven, rusty, and difficult to understand the inscriptions. In fact, it is normal to authenticate antiques. It took them half an hour to browse one-third of the study. And Ma Wude's story became more and more strange later, and even talked about immortality and the cycle of heaven.
At this time, Shen Shiyan unconsciously became alert, and then caught a glimpse of the silk killing machine that flashed in the corner of Ma Wude's eyes in front of him. He sweated coldly on his forehead, but he thought several times in his heart: Shit! I said that Ma Wude has been in business all his life and has great experience. How can it be so easy for me to overhear many secrets of the Ma family when his weaknesses are exposed? Emotions are people's skills. With my usual thinking, they set me a trap instead? I'm going to be so cunning. If I hadn't been reborn and maintained a certain vigilance all the time, I would have been really smart and be mistaken for you this time. However, to be honest, I'm still curious. What on earth is the purpose of you old man willing to risk exposing your secrets? Is the plot task of the second step related to these antiques?
Shen Shiyan, who was more alert, no longer dared to despise the 70-year-old Ma Wude in front of him. Therefore, he immediately changed his mentality and carefully answered Ma Wude's seemingly meaningless questions. For example, once Ma Wude asked him how he had completed the task of "Certificate of Courage" and whether he had hired a helper to complete it together, Shen Shiyan told him that he did have friends to help him, and on the way, he still stood aside empty-handed and let them brush monsters for him. For example, when Ma Wude asked if he had joined a family, ordinary people answered sincerely that they did not have a family in order to prevent Ma Wude's suspicions. However, Shen Shiyan knew that an old fox like Ma Wude must answer half-truth to dispel the other party's doubts about him. Just because once Shen Shiyan lied that he could have joined the family, he chose a family that he didn't like. In this way, the cunning Ma Wude will think that Shen Shiyan is just a lucky guy who likes to brag about himself, so his vigilance against him will be reduced by one or two or two.
Ma Wude heard this and had no extra look on his face. He handed Shen Shiyan a few eyes with a smile, but after being confirmed one by one, he also thought that his previous conjecture was right. I said, how can such a novice player complete this task alone? Hey, you should know that the first step to deal with monsters can be one of the white ape monster, black ape monster and giant bee monster. The reason why I chose the black ape monster in the middle for him is, on the one hand, because of Cao Zheng's brand, and on the other hand, it is actually because he had a fiery festival with the black ape monster in the past-- Take this opportunity to test whether this boy is capable of continuing my next task. However, I didn't expect you to really pass. In this case, why don't I test you again? If I pass this test, the second task will be safely handed over to you.
Thinking of this, Ma Wude's expression changed slightly, but soon returned to its original state. After wandering for a few more minutes, Ma Wude saw that Shen Shiyan did not seem to have much scheming, so he took him to a key place, which was under the innermost stone wall in the study.
In a short time, Shen and Ma came to this very strange stone wall. Ma Wude deliberately stood aside and asked Shen Shiyan to look forward to observe the picture on the stone wall. Although Shen Shiyan is unknown, he also knows that Ma Wude will not really kill himself. So he obeyed his orders to go forward, less than a foot away from the stone wall, and carefully observed the color painting called "Five Horses Enter the Picture". It can be seen that the size of this "Five Horses" is about five feet long and four feet high. On the whole picture, the painter used an extremely slender line and a ball of color ink to outline an immersive real scene as follows. The largest area of the picture is a vast grassland with a full third of the length. You can only see that the green field is not less than 100 miles, the grass is green, and the grass is long and the warbler flying. On this vast green field, a tortuous river flows from the northeast to the southwest. A bluestone slate bridge across a river about three feet wide...
In the end, Shen Shiyan did not see the mystery. After all, those green grass and stone bridges are images that can be seen in ordinary portraits, and this pair of "Five Horses Enter the Picture" is nothing more realistic. He was very puzzled and turned around to face Ma Wude and asked his own questions: "To be honest, this painting you treasured, Elder Ma, is indeed a rare masterpiece. The scene is reasonable, and various lines and colors are also very realistic. However, if it comes to what is strange about it, the younger generation is indeed shallow in learning, so they can't see this. However, the younger generation has a simple question: Since this saying is called "Five Horses Enter the Picture", why can't you even see a horse on the grassland now?
After listening to Shen Shiyan's question, Ma Wude showed a natural faint smile on his face, but it also contained some contempt. Obviously, he thought that Shen Shiyan was indeed a rude person and unvigilously. After more than ten seconds, Ma Wude carried the true qi on his right hand, and a palm immediately glowed with a faint purple light. Then he sent his palm to an inch of the surface of the portrait and covered it from left to right from top to bottom. A few seconds later, the painting immediately showed five strong horses driving side by side. At this time, Ma Wude proudly said, "Ha ha, have Brother Shen seen two old five healthy horses now? Hahaha, this portrait itself is not surprising, and its most strange thing is the original painter, which drew these five strong horses after mixing some carefully developed paints with an extremely strange true spirit. Therefore, only with the true qi that can match that true qi can reproduce these five strong horses.
After listening to Ma Wude's words, Shen Shiyan's heart was shocked, naturally because he knew that he still underestimated the head of Ma Wude in front of him. After being slightly stunned, Shen Shiyan pretended to be knowledge-seeking and asked Ma Wude if others could learn this true spirit, but he did not expect Ma Wude to show obvious contemptuous meaning in his eyes and indifferently told him such a unique skill, unless he could continue a new plot task at level 60 after completing these three-step tasks. Only then can it be taught to him. Shen Shiyan pretended to be lost, but he secretly guessed the secret in this painting. He absolutely didn't know it was so simple. At this time, Ma Wude, who was about the same time, immediately told Shen Shiyan the main content of the second step of the task.
