Fang Yun didn't expect the Whale King to apologize because of the dragonians, so he headed to Wen Youxuan.
Wen Youxuan was one of the few large shops in Jade Sea City. It was the property of Chen Sheng's family. Wen Youxuan referred to the four friends of zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Hence, it mainly sold ordinary zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, as well as the four treasures of the study.
Although zither, chess, and war paintings were highly profitable, they were rarely sold and weren't the main business of Wen Youxuan. Only Notre-Dame and the capital of the Ten Nations had large shops that specialized in zither, and they were backed by the Half-saint families of the various nations.
Wen Youxuan occupied a large area in the Heaven and Earth Shell, and each shop occupied an entire street. Today, more than three hundred workers were mobilized from all over the world to serve thousands of customers.
Fang Yun entered Wen Youxuan. After asking the workers, he went to the place where zithers were sold. He found that there were only five High Scholar Wen Youxuan and three Grand Scholar Wen Youxuan. They were all placed here by others and were only for exchange.
There was an appraisal report for each zither, which stated its origin, age, and the number of times it had been injected with talent. Fang Yun made a judgment based on the age of the zithers. They were all ordinary zithers and weren't worth the Whale King's attention.
'I need a Grand Scholar Wen Youxuan, and one that is worth the Whale King's attention is definitely not an ordinary one. His words seemed to be testing my eyesight. It should be that one of the eight Wen Baoqin is very special. "
Fang Yun carefully appraised the eight zithers again, but he still couldn't find anything.
'Could it be that there's a Wen Youxuan hidden among the ordinary zithers? The possibility is too low. The difference between a Wen Baoqin and a non-Wen Baoqin is too big. Wen Youxuan wouldn't make such a big mistake. What is Whale King trying to say? "
Fang Yun inspected the eight zithers for the third time, but he still couldn't find anything. He had no choice but to ask the workers to go to a nearby place that sold fine zithers.
Fang Yun arrived at the shop. He found that there were more than ten rows of shelves, and on them were many zithers of different shapes and colors. There were Fuxi zithers, Zhongni zithers, Chuanzhu zithers, Lingji zithers, and so on. It had an antique feel to it.
This place didn't look like a shop, but more like a hall for ancient zithers.
Just by looking at it, Fang Yun could feel his favorite music ringing in his ears, making him happy.
"If there is nothing special about the eight Wen Bao Qin, then there must be something special about these hundreds of Qin." Fang Yun started to search slowly, he did not look at the new Qin. He only looked at the ancient zither.
The people who came here to buy zithers were also different from other places. Their footsteps were light and leisurely. They were not choosing goods, but admiring works of art. It was as if the clamor of the Dragon Luring Pavilion was completely isolated.
Yang Yuhuan's eyes were especially bright. Because Qin and Se were not separated, there was also Se here.
When Fang Yun saw that she liked it, he let Nuu accompany her while he slowly appreciated those fine zithers and looked for possible good ones.
If he wanted to fully appraise one zither, he would need seven or eight minutes. He wouldn't be able to appraise a hundred zithers in a day and a night. Therefore, Fang Yun only used "Rune Division Theory" to quickly identify it.
After a hundred years, there would be runes. After a hundred years, there would be ice cracks, the shape of which was like a cracked ice surface. But after two hundred years, there would be new runes on other parts of the body. The runes were like strands of cow hair, called "Cow Hair Runes".
There were also very few zithers that were made of special materials. They would not have runes for the first few hundred years, and would only appear after a few hundred years.
Fang Yun quickly finished looking at all the zithers. Finally, he stood in the innermost area and looked at a long row of shelves. There were ten ancient zithers. Each of them was once a Wen Bao Qin. Even if their Qi had dissipated, they were still extremely precious.
The most expensive zither was made by a famous zither maker in the Qin Kingdom hundreds of years ago. Although it was a little damaged, it was worth two hundred thousand taels of silver. It was the treasure of the shop.
Fang Yun looked carefully and found that there were two kinds of runes on this zither. One was "Snake Belly Runes" that could only appear after five hundred years. The runes were long, spaced apart, and arranged in parallel, like the abdomen of a snake. It was an extremely precious rune. These runes were not only proof of the zither's age, the runes themselves were also very valuable.
The second kind was "Plum Blossom Runes" that could only appear after seven hundred years. The runes were like blooming plum blossoms.
The strings and sound were like a brush, leaving behind strange and beautiful runes on the body of the zither.
The people of Saint Origin World did not care, but Fang Yun was very happy to see the Plum Blossom Runes for the first time. The Plum Blossom Runes were already legendary runes. The next step was the Thousand Year Tortoise Shell Runes, which was close to a myth. There was no real object. Fang Yun had only seen a few lines of it in the book "Hidden Zither Records", which left a deep impression on him.
"If there really is a Tortoise Shell Runes, then there must be one on the Number One Killing Zither, 'Hao Zhong'."
Fang Yun thought in his heart. He could not help but admire the beautiful runes for a while. Then, he began to seriously look for other zithers.
In the end, Fang Yun found a problematic zither!
The zither's appraisal document did not have the details of the maker. It only stated that it was a zither from four hundred years ago that had undergone two injections of Talent Qi.
The appraisal document also said that the zither's material was special. It had been preserved for four hundred years, yet the sound did not change. It could still be played today. Moreover, the sound of the zither was particularly thick. Although it did not reach the legendary level of a great bell, when playing a war song, the sound of the zither was like a drum, causing the enemy to tremble in fear.
However, there was a snake's belly on the zither!
It was impossible for a four hundred year old zither to have a snake's belly.
Fang Yun concluded that this zither had at least five hundred years of history. Because this zither was once a literary treasure, the power of Talent Qi could slow down the formation of runes. This meant that this zither's actual age was close to six hundred years!
Fang Yun carefully observed and combined the appraisal methods of Ancient Huaxia and Saint Origin World. He found that this Guestshock Zither had a history of six hundred years, but the traces of wear and tear made it look like it was four hundred years old. Not only did it show that the zither's material was terrifyingly good, it also showed that this zither had undergone three injections of Talent Qi!
The Guestshock Zither had undergone six hundred years of wear and tear, so it could definitely withstand the fourth injection of Talent Qi!
Once the Literary Treasure Zither received the fourth injection of Talent Qi, the power of the war song played would be doubled!
'The Whale King should be talking about this Guestshock Zither. Because it was not made by a famous zither master, the price is only twenty-six thousand taels of silver. However, one needs to find a Grand Scholar who is about to pass away to inject Talent Qi. Half of the Flood Dragon King's dragon horn is enough. After all, many Grand Scholars are admitted into the Ten Nations in a year, but the Flood Dragon King's horn is rarely produced. When I reach the first realm of the zither or become a High Scholar. Then, I can use the Literary Treasure Zither to play war songs to make up for my shortcomings. '
'Songs such as the pipa and zither can be changed to the Literary Treasure Zither. Once the famous' Ambush from Ten Sides', 'The Overlord Takes Off His Armor', and 'General's Order' are changed to war songs, their power will definitely be extraordinary. 'Ambush from Ten Sides' and 'The Overlord Takes Off His Armor' are both famous songs, especially the former, which is one of the top ten ancient songs. Both songs were inspired by the war between the Chu and the Han. However, the main character of the former is Liu Bang, while the main character of the latter is Xiang Yu. '
When Fang Yun thought of this, he froze for a moment, and a very ridiculous idea appeared in his mind.
'The contents of' Ambush from Ten Sides' and 'The Overlord Takes Off His Armor' are just ordinary war songs in ancient China. However, in the Saint Origin World, the history on the surface has not changed. However, the actual history is that after the Saints who supported the Chu and Han Dynasties defeated the Saints who supported the Qin Dynasty, there was a split. The Saints who supported the Chu and Han Dynasties fought a shocking battle, and in the end, the Saints who supported the Liu Bang side won. If 'Ambush from Ten Sides' is stimulated by the Literary Treasure Zither, it will not be the armies of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, but a higher level of power. Then … it will definitely be the first war song that surpasses everything else! If it can be used together with the first killing zither, 'Hao Zhong', the results will be unimaginable. '
Fang Yun shook his head, feeling that the possibility was too small. Then, he stretched out his hand and took the zither.
This action immediately attracted the attention of the crowd, and many of the shop assistants walked over. This kind of expensive zither was separated from the crowd, and if anyone wanted to take it without the permission of the shop owner, they would have to take it. Then they would have to buy it.
Fang Yun held the zither with both hands and said to the shop assistant, "Bring me to see your shopkeeper."
"Yes." The shop assistant immediately brought Fang Yun away, and not long after, he saw a man in his fifties in a small house.
"This is our Shopkeeper Ren. Shopkeeper Ren, this young master wants to buy the zither. "Fang Yundao said.
Shopkeeper Ren politely came over to welcome him, and after exchanging greetings, Shopkeeper Ren asked, "Do you want to pay now, or do you want us to send it to your residence?"
Fang Yun smiled, "No one would bring so much money when shopping. Send it to my house."
"May I ask for young master's name?" Shopkeeper Ren asked.
"Fang Yun." Fang Yundao said.
Shopkeeper Ren and the shop assistant were shocked.
"That Fang Banxiang?"
"That should be me." Fang Yun smiled and admitted.
"Then, then if you need it urgently, you can take it now. Later, you can send someone to give the money to our Wen Youxuan. "
"Aren't you afraid that I'm a swindler?"
"Is there anyone in Jade Sea City who dares to impersonate Fang Banxiang?" Shopkeeper Ren asked.
The two laughed in unison, and Fang Yundao said, "Then wrap it up first and send it to my house tomorrow. I'm not in a hurry. "
"Okay, don't worry, I'll personally send it to your house tomorrow morning."
"Thank you, Shopkeeper Ren."
"You're too polite. Your visit to our Wen Youxuan has brought light to our humble dwelling, and we should be the ones thanking you. "Shopkeeper Ren smiled.
Fang Yun left, then went to find Yang Yuhuan and returned to the zither recital venue to look for Scholar Hong, but he couldn't find him. After asking, he found out that Scholar Hong had just sold the zither and left with the four High Scholar literary treasures.
Fang Yun stood there thinking for a while, then walked to the entrance with Yang Yuhuan and the others to meet up with the others and return home.
Along the way, Fang Yun kept stroking the fur, and Nunu was also very curious about it.
When they reached home, Fang Yun carried Nunu into the study and placed the fur on the table, saying, "Tell me, what is this fur?"
Nunu shook her head, indicating that she really didn't know.
Fang Yun couldn't help but recall the piece of wood in that person's sleeve. He asked, "You can also see that the thing in his hand is very powerful. Let's make an analogy. You've also seen that lazy Wenzong. If he's so powerful, then how powerful do you think that piece of wood is? "Fang Yun said, pinching his thumb and index finger, then separating them to leave an inch of space.
Nunu thought for a moment, then stood up and used her two front legs as arms, spreading them to the sides. Finally, she stretched out her arms horizontally, indicating that she was much more powerful than Wenzong.
"I'm afraid it's one of those things, but I can't guess what it is exactly."
Fang Yun said, staring at the black fur and the three drops of dried blood on it. He couldn't feel any power at all.
"Is it really related to the holy ground?"
