Chapter 570: Rotten Wood
it."This...this goddamn thing is a fake, right"Lao San wanted to step forward and take a look, to see if Chen Ping was a fake.Lao San remained still, while Chen Ping murmured to himself before turning...Just as everyone was talking, Master He suddenly opened his originally slightly closed eyes. He placed the Bagua plate on the table and lightly tapped it with his two fingers. The once worn and faded Bagua plate seemed to be brushed over, instantly becoming brand new and even reflecting people's shadows.
Everyone present gasped in astonishment. Qin Xiaoxiao was particularly surprised and exclaimed, “Master He truly lives up to his reputation as a master of arts who has dedicated decades to cultivating his skills. His move is extraordinary…”
Master He's face was filled with a hint of pride. Then, a red light flashed in his hand, and immediately, the entire gossip pan followed suit, emitting a red glow. It seemed like a treasure had arrived, and the entire room was enveloped by this red light. Everyone felt as if they were bathed in spring sunshine, their bodies feeling incredibly smooth and comfortable!
But soon, the red glow gradually faded, and the room returned to its usual peace. The gossip mirror remained as it was before, weathered and worn with the marks of time!
"Master He, haven't you already figured out the wonderful uses of this gossip disk"
Qin Xiaoxian asked excitedly.
Master He nodded: "This gossip plate is indeed no ordinary artifact. It contains the true principles of the Dao. If my guess is correct, it must be left behind by an ancient immortal!"
Upon hearing Master He's words, greed flashed in everyone's eyes. Even Bai Xiushan couldn't help but stare at the Bagua disc, wanting it for himself.
Looking at everyone's reactions, Zou Zhaolong was beaming with joy. Now, if he were to auction this gossip plate, it would definitely fetch a good price!
"Kid, it's your turn. Shouldn't you also take a look at the origins of this gossip plate and then let Master Yuan from Hong Kong decide Let's see who is right."
Qin Xiaoxian looked at Chen Ping and asked.
All eyes turned to Chen Ping, eager to know what method he used to activate the gossip disk formation!
"But who knew Chen Ping wouldn't even touch the gossip mirror. He calmly said, 'Just a piece of rotten wood, what history does it have A bunch of masters, proud with just a piece of rotten wood, I truly don't know how you've been practicing all these years!'"
Chen Ping's words made all the masters of palm eyes in the field furious. Although many of them couldn't see the use of this gossip plate, since Zou Zhaolong dared to take out this treasure from the bottom of the box, it must have something special about it. Besides, Yuan Baozhong was sitting there, so they all believed that the gossip plate was a treasure.
This is the idea of confirmation bias, coupled with Zou Zhaolong's pre-hype, making these fortune tellers believe even more that this gossip plate is a treasure. They can't see it because they are simply not skilled enough!
This is like the emperor's new clothes. Although everyone can't see anything special, no one dares to say it because to speak up would mean they are not capable enough!
And now Chen Ping directly pointed out that this was just a piece of rotten wood, which made these master craftsmen feel uncomfortable, as if they had been insulted and provoked.
Especially Zou Zhailong and Yuan Baozhong, although the two of them also know that this gossip disk is just a piece of rotten wood, but Chen Ping said it publicly, which is very detrimental to them!
"What do you mean, little brother I bought this gossip plate for a lot of money, and Master Yuan has also taken a look. It does contain an array formation, it's a rare and valuable artifact, and you say it's just a piece of rotten wood Today, if you don't make it clear, don't blame me for being rude..."
Zou Zhaolong's face was cold.
"Yes, Master He just activated the formation. You still say this Bagua Disk is a piece of rotten wood I think it's you who can't do it yourself and can't find anything special about this Bagua Disk, right"
Qin Xiaotien also seized the opportunity to sarcastically mock Chen Ping!
"Am I just a piece of rotten wood I believe they understand me better than I do. Some things are best left unsaid..."
Chen Ping casually glanced at Master He and Zou Zhaolong. The two of them, upon meeting Chen Ping's gaze, instinctively dodged their eyes!
