Chapter Forty-Six Tempering Thorns

The dark gray fishing rod felt cold in his hand. There was nothing on the fishing rod. Zhou Fan looked at the fog and asked, "How do you use this creepy bait?"

"It's still like the last time you used a fishing rod, just throw the rod directly into the river." Wu said lightly.

Wu said, Zhou Fan did not hesitate, he stood beside the boat, flicked the fishing rod, and the dark gray fish silk quickly leaked out of the fishing rod and landed on the gray river.

The shadows cruising down the river swam frantically, and the fishing line was pulled and sinking.

The fishing line was pulled so straight that the top of the fishing rod was slightly bent. Zhou Fan lifted it with a strong hand, and there was a slamming sound in the water, and something was pulled up by the octopus-like fish silk.

A spherical object the size of a fist, with dense bone spurs on the surface of the white sphere.

Zhou Fan looked at the thing at the end of the fishing line, his face was stunned, this is definitely not an elixir, but what is it?

"Fog, what is this?" Zhou Fan looked at the fog without knowing it.

Wu said coldly: "Do you take me as your free appraiser? I want to tell you, but it will cost you a price."

"Then what do you want?" Zhou Fan glanced at the sphere covered with bone spurs and asked.

Wu slowly said: "Life, if you want me to help you identify, you must pay for life."

"What's the use of wanting my lifespan?" Zhou Fan asked in surprise. Fishing needs lifespan, and Fog needs his lifespan now?

Could it be that the life that was taken away from fishing was already in the hands of the fog?

"This has nothing to do with you. If you are willing to pay for your lifespan, then I will identify it for you." Wu shook his head.

Zhou Fan was silent for a moment and asked, "How long will the appraisal last?"

"One appraisal takes one year." Fog thought for a while and said the price.

Zhou Fan's face turned black and said, "It's too expensive. If this is the case, I'll lose my life after several appraisals. I think I can accept the lifespan appraisal once a day."

Wu sneered and said, "Once a day? How can there be such a cheap thing? Once a year, if you want it, you need to identify it, and if you don't, forget it."

Zhou Fan said with a cold face: "I won't identify it once a year. You just say it casually, and it doesn't cost anything. Why is it so expensive?"

"That's right, I really only need to talk about it, it doesn't cost anything, but you don't understand the problem. If you don't understand, you can only ask me for appraisal. It's not up to me to decide the price?" Wu said calmly.

Zhou Fan said solemnly: "I don't understand, but it doesn't mean that no one outside understands. At most, I will take some time to check it, and I don't necessarily need to find you."

After listening to the fog, he pondered, he suddenly nodded and said: "What you said makes sense, I wanted to bully you for not understanding, but you don't understand, there will always be people outside who know what this is, then I don't have any knowledge. I think it's so valuable, so let's have an appraisal once a month."

"Once a month is still expensive, so let me take a step back and once every seven days." Zhou Fan bargained.

The fog's face became cold: "Don't be too aggressive, once every half a month, it can't be less, otherwise you can find a way by yourself."

Zhou Fan saw that the fog refused to descend again, so he smiled and said: "Once a half month, once a half month, but if you use your lifespan for fishing, can you also get a bait for half a month?"

What Zhou Fan thought in his mind was that since the appraisal can be bargained, then the life span of fishing may not be able to bargain. If he has a bait for half a month, he may be able to use it when he is desperate.

Wu sneered: "I can't decide the price of the fishing rod. What are you asking me for?"

Zhou Fan quickly inquired: "Who decided that?"

Wu didn't answer, but said impatiently, "Do you really want an appraisal?"

"Yes." Zhou Fan nodded.

As soon as Zhou Fan finished speaking, a white light burst out from his body and landed in Wu's hands.

With a flip of his palm, the white light dissipated.

Zhou Fan's face changed slightly, and he could feel something vaguely missing from him.

"Is this the life span of half a month?"

"Of course, this is your half-month lifespan." A strange smile appeared on Wu's face, "But don't worry, I can't randomly extract your lifespan, I can only extract it if you want."

"In return, I can tell you that the thing in your hand is a special kind of fruit, it's called a tempering thorn, and it has the effect of accelerating the tempering of vitality."

"Tempering thorn?" Zhou Fan glanced at the white thorn sphere in his hand, he frowned, "I don't quite understand what you mean."

Misty said: "What's wrong with this, it can speed up your cultivation, as long as you go back and hold the tempering thorn in your hand, it will merge into the body along the blood, and then you will know the effect. "

"Will there be any side effects?" Zhou Fan asked.

"There won't be any side effects, it's just a little painful." Wu said, neither salty nor light, "This is not a medicinal herb, after all, it is the fruit of plants and trees. The medicinal power will be a little more primitive and savage, but compared to its effect, it is still worth it."

"There will be fruit in the river, that is, there is a fishing rod specially used to catch fruit, right?" Zhou Fan thought about it and asked tentatively.

It's a pity that Wu didn't answer Zhou Fan's question, "You can still fish once with the dark gray fishing rod. I suggest you hurry up because you're running out of time."

Zhou Fan glanced at the hourglass, and it was true that time was running out. He didn't dare to delay any longer. He wasted this opportunity and threw the pole at Hanoi again.

It didn't take long for something to be caught by Zhou Fan. It was a piece of animal skin the size of a palm. The animal skin was inscribed with runes and exuded a dim yellow light.

Zhou Fan touched the rune on the animal skin, and his fingers felt as if they had been electrocuted. He quickly released his fingers. This was another thing he couldn't recognize.

Wu glanced at the animal hide and asked, "How is it? Do you want to appraise it? It's still a half-monthly life appraisal fee."

Zhou Fan didn't speak. He first glanced at the glass ball floating in the air. The gray worms in the glass ball had disappeared, and he said, "If I have a weird bait, can I use a weird bait for it? Exchange identification times."

"Of course there's no problem with this, but weird bait is not so valuable here. Like the bait just now, I will give you a maximum of three chances of identification." Wu quickly replied.

Zhou Fan frowned and said, "The price difference is so big that a single bait can cover one year's lifespan, which is the cost of 24 appraisals. You actually only gave three appraisals?"

Wu said coldly: "It's the price. If you think it's not worth it, you can use your lifespan to exchange it, because the strange bait is really worthless in my hands. Don't think about bargaining like you did just now."

Zhou Fan said helplessly: "Then help me identify what I have in my hand."

If you don't know the purpose of this thing, it can't be used. Although he said before that he could find someone outside for identification, it was actually very difficult to implement, because it was difficult for him to even go out of Sanqiu Village, and these things in the gray river space, He didn't dare let anyone know.

Wu snapped his fingers, and after taking a ray of white light from Zhou Fan, he slowly said, "This is a low-grade yellow talisman called Xiao Lei Fu."
