Chapter 494 Weird Crushed Stone Pieces
The stone box is gray in color, looks simple and bold, and the shape of the stone is not too square.
It’s like being carved out of a whole piece of ancient stone.
“This stone box contains Taoist classics?”
Chu Ci took a look at the stone box and asked the shopkeeper curiously.
The shopkeeper nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice, “I got it by accident, it’s quite strange!”
Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Chu Ci became more curious in his heart.
Stepping up to the stone box, Chu Ci saw an obvious crack in the stone box.
Reaching out and moving hard over the crack, the stone box slowly opened.
Chu Ci opened the stone box and looked inside with a startled look on his face.
Inside are not the paper classics as imagined, but fragments of large and small fragments of stone.
On the side of the gravel, there seemed to be some words engraved in the dark.
“Is this a piece of stone?”
Chu Ci reached out and took out a palm-sized piece of stone from the stone box and placed it in his hand for observation.
The stone flakes are of moderate thickness, and the surface is not smooth, with a dozen or so fingernail-sized characters engraved on it.
“Light Su, take a look.”
Chu Ci handed the stone tablets to Lin Qingsu who was aside.
Lin Qingsu took the stone piece and looked at it curiously.
After reading the inscribed text on the stone tablet, Lin Qingsu frowned slightly, and there was an inexplicable meaning in his eyes.
Lin Qingsu put the stone piece back on the counter, lifted the stone box with both hands and dumped it slowly.
Wow…
All the stone pieces in the stone box fell on the counter under the action of gravity, and gathered into a small pile.
“Light Su, you?”
Chu Ci looked at Lin Qingsu’s behavior curiously.
“Put them together.”
Lin Qingsu explained softly.
Chu Ci nodded slightly, and started to help, together with Lin Qingsu, assembling the stone pieces on the counter.
When the shopkeeper on the side saw this scene, he said in a deep voice, “Don’t hide the two distinguished guests, I found these broken stones in a ruin.”
“At that time, these stone fragments were piled up together, and when I saw that there were words on it, I picked up a stone box and put it all back.”
While carefully distinguishing the placement of the broken stones, Chu Ci asked, “Treasurer, don’t you say that the broken stones are quite mysterious?”
“I think it’s just ordinary stone flakes. What’s so special about it?”
The shopkeeper explained with a smile, “I thought it was ordinary broken stones at first, but only after I came back I found out that these broken stones were unusual.”
“How unusual?” Chu Ci asked.
The shopkeeper replied, “These fragments look ordinary, but they are not afraid of fire and water, and are indestructible!”
“If the guest officer doesn’t believe me, you can give it a try!”
Chu Ci was pinching a piece of gravel in his hand, and he squeezed it hard with his fingers.
Ok? !
Chuci was startled, then chuckled, “It’s interesting.”
The pinching force of the **** at the moment of Chuci is absolutely extraordinary!
Even 100-refined steel can be handled at will like mud.
But this seemingly ordinary piece of gravel was pinched by Chuci’s two fingers, without the slightest damage!
“Light vegetarian, you try?”
Chu Ci looked at Lin Qingsu and said with a smile, “This stone piece is really interesting.”
Lin Qingsu’s eyes shone slightly, and she pinched a piece of stone with her bare hand.
In the next second, scorching white flames and bluish-white ice alternately appeared on the stone flakes.
Under the alternating effects of extreme cold and extreme heat, this piece of rubble is still intact.
“Indestructible indeed!”
Lin Qingsu nodded slightly.
Even the ninth-ranked powerhouse could not destroy this fragment of stone, which was enough to prove that these fragments were absolutely extraordinary.
“I hope I can gain something.”
Lin Qingsu murmured as he stared at the rubble piled on the counter.
Chu Ci looked at the shopkeeper and asked, “Shopkeeper, are there any exceptions other than these fragments?”
The shopkeeper groaned, “Other…”
“That’s the engraved text on it!”
The shopkeeper said in a deep voice, “The material of the stone flakes is indestructible, so the words on it must not be idle!”
“I tried to piece them together after taking these broken stones back.”
“It’s a pity that the broken stones are so incomplete. I am also at a loss as to the content of the above text. In the end, I can only give up this idea and put all the broken stones into the stone box.”
The shopkeeper looked at Lin Qingsu wearing a Taoist robe, and said aloud, “This Taoist chief can easily distinguish the flaws on the Taoist books. I want to know a lot about the Taoist books. Maybe I can piece these broken stones together. .”
Lin Qingsu picked up pieces of broken stone by himself, carefully read the incomplete text on it, and wanted to piece together a complete slate from the text on it.
The Songs of Chu are not concise in the classics of the Taoist family. They are just pieced together according to the shape of each piece of broken stone, just like putting together a jigsaw that has been shattered.
There are not many rubble pieces, and the total number is more than fifty.
After playing with it for a while, Chuci finally gave up to piece together the stone pieces.
Because these broken stones are not complete, sometimes two or three pieces fit perfectly, but more often they have no connection, and many of them are definitely missing.
In the end, I could only hope that Lin Qingsu would piece together the fragments through the words on the stone tablets.
“Light Su, you can work hard first, I’ll go see Ruxue and Qianyi.”
“Well, the master can go by himself.”
Seeing that Lin Qingsu could not piece it together for a while, Chu Ci got up and walked towards Leng Ruxue, Ju Qianyi and Yan Ruoyu.
Leng Ruxue’s three daughters do not practice Taoism and are not interested in Taoist classics. At this moment, they are wandering in front of the Taoist counter.
“This Taoist sword seems to be good. Sister Ruxue, would you like to take a look?”
Ju Qianyi pointed at a gorgeous Taoist sword, and said to Leng Ruxue aloud.
Leng Ruxue shook her head slightly, put her bare hand on the hilt of the long sword at her waist, and said softly, “No, I have this handle.”
“Oh well.”
Ju Qianyi stretched out her index finger and nodded her red lips, her eyes fell on a red dress.
“Huh? Is this skirt also a Taoist tool?”
The clerk nodded and said with a smile, “Yes, this is our newly launched Taoist clothing.”
“Not only can it clean itself without dirt and dust, but it can also withstand attacks below the third-order transcendents!”
Ju Qianyi’s eyes lit up and she clapped her hands and said, “Bring it to me quickly.”
The clerk carefully fetched the long skirt and placed it in front of Ju Qianyi.
“Guest, please take a look.”
Ju Qianyi held her long skirt to look at it, nodded slightly and said, “Can the Taoist clothing in your store be customized?”
The clerk replied with a smile, “Of course!”
“This Dao Qi dress is only displayed as a sample. If you want to customize Dao Qi clothing, you can pay a deposit. Our shop will ask a professional master to tailor it for you!”
Ju Qianyi’s eyes lit up and her heart moved.
“The ability to bring your own cleaning is really good, but the ability to defend is not good.”
“Can’t you make a Taoist costume with higher defensive ability?”
The clerk had a stiff look on his face when he heard that, and said in an embarrassed tone, “Guest officer, you are embarrassing us.”
“The Taoist costumes that can withstand the third-order transcendents are already very powerful!”
Ju Qianyi sighed and whispered in a low voice, “Forget it, it’s a big deal, let the old man refine it again!”
