Chapter 72 Tao 16 and Copper 28

Truman declined Hannibal's dinner invitation.

Firstly, because it was still early, it would be a bit strange to talk about dinner before 2pm, and secondly, the imperial daughter had warned him not to sit at the same table as Hannibal.

Hannibal felt a little regretful, and his attitude became cold from then on.

Truman had to bring up another topic to attract his attention.

"I think the highest continuity of spiritual texts can exceed 100 words, far from the 50 words that Professor Yang said is the limit." Truman said.

At this moment, in the museum in the afternoon, the environment is quiet, and the dust in the air seems to be floating leisurely.

What Truman said really attracted Hannibal's attention.

"Do you have any evidence?" Hannibal asked.

"Unfortunately, there is none at the moment. It's just a speculation. Do you know the 16 types of spiritual texts on pottery, about a great military advisor?" Truman said.

"Yes, I know." Hannibal nodded, "Not long ago, a 'Mystery Stele' of type 16 arrived in Lundini. I observed it, and then it also appeared at an execution site in the Divine Power Prison.

That's a good research topic, worthy of a paper."

He had observed Zhuge Liang's mysterious monument at close range... when? Truman guessed in his heart.

That mysterious monument has become the focus of all parties since it arrived in Lundini and is under surveillance at all times. When did Hannibal go to study it?

"I am engaged in research work on Tao 16." Truman said.

"A good job." Hannibal inadvertently glanced at the back of Truman's right hand.

"During the research process, I saw a strong continuity." Truman said, "I think this continuity exceeds 100 words."

"Oh..." Hannibal didn't show much interest.

Although in the publication of "The Pursuit of True Knowledge", as the two giants in the debate about the limit of continuity, he and Professor Yang had a fierce fight in the newspaper, but a young boy came out of nowhere and said

It is also difficult for people to believe that it can provide research results that are beneficial to him.

There are too many researchers and research results in the academic world that are difficult to distinguish between true and false.

"I collected some of them. This is a part that is not easy to piece together." Truman took out two fragments of Tao 16 from the briefcase he carried with him.

He did not translate.

In fact, after translation and the spiritual text taking shape, the original original continuity will disappear.

Truman initially told the emperor that he could see continuity.

In fact, he made it up.

However, after a lot of translation and appraisal work on Zhuge Liang, Tao 16, especially the process of re-typing the 'mysterious monument', he discovered that the 'continuity' he had casually made up really existed.

Either it's the texture fit between the fragments, or it's the transfer of 'historical contamination' to each other, or it's the wonderful rhythm between the dust. There are too many signs to prove that the spiritual carriers that originally belong to the same history are different.

Related.

This is continuity.

Truman found several very interesting pieces of pottery based on continuity and comparative knowledge on the other side of the earth.

And what he gave Hannibal today were two of them.

Although it was not translated and Truman lost his awareness of it after 24 hours, Truman knew that it was part of a huge continuity.

Enough to pique Hannibal's interest.

Hannibal took the two pottery pieces, took out a magnifying glass, and carefully observed the shapes and textures on them, showing his professionalism as an expert.

"I'm sorry." He murmured.

"Tears." He said again.

He was lost in thought.

When Truman heard Hannibal directly mention the spiritual inscriptions on the two pieces of pottery, he couldn't help but marvel. Was it a 'skill' or a 'characteristic'?

How did Hannibal do it?

"...It should indeed have more continuity, but how are you sure it will be more than 100 words?" Hannibal asked Truman, "I'm sorry, I'm not questioning you, but if it really turns out to be more than 100 words words, that will be a landmark event in the history of spiritual translation."

"It's not just over 100 words, it may even be more." Truman said in a rather positive tone.

When Truman heard the two words spoken by Hannibal, an article he was required to recite in middle school immediately came to mind. In another 24 hours, he would have forgotten the two words he had heard, and maybe he would lose it. This association, but now he can remember it.

"I still find it hard to believe." Hannibal shook his head. He couldn't believe that an important and epic discovery would appear in front of him on this ordinary afternoon.

"I can provide you with Tao 16 with the same continuity and exchange it with you for the copper 28 I want." Truman said, "If I can't come up with my transaction, you won't lose anything. "

"I can't refuse." Hannibal spread his hands and showed a charming smile, "If we really get this important discovery, your name will be on that article that is destined to shock the world."

"Thank you very much." Truman said, "But before that, I may need to confirm that you have what I want in your collection."

certainly.

Hannibal proudly invited Truman to his spiritual writing room, where Truman saw a large number of bronze spiritual writing carriers classified into 28 categories by Hannibal, as well as other spiritual writing carriers.

The pottery-type carriers that Truman is already very familiar with are only a very small part of them. There are also bronze-type carriers, iron-type carriers, wooden tablet-type carriers, etc.

It's really amazing. Truman looked at everything he saw with surprised eyes.

He knows the value of it.

Spiritual text is the main ingredient of potions.

Hannibal's collection in this house is very precious, which means that many of the important raw materials for potions are so valuable that they are worth a lot of money.

"These are all copper-28 spiritual inscriptions, and they have all been authenticated."

Hannibal opened a drawer and found a large pile of bronze fragments inside. Each piece was engraved with glyphs and had been authenticated. Of course, they had not been translated.

"Can I re-identify them?" Truman asked.

"As you wish," Hannibal said.

Appraisal will not affect the value of a spiritual carrier, it will only temporarily clear away the historical dust on it.

Truman wanted to use the copying characteristics to judge whether these carriers met his requirements.

But Hannibal handed him the magnifying glass.

"I believe your 'share' is enough to use this feature."

Truman took the magnifying glass, and when he looked at the bronze fragments through it, he saw that the historical dust on the fragments seemed not to exist, and he directly saw the spiritual characters.

This is simply an artifact used for spiritual identification... Truman was amazed.

Of course, the 'share' was consumed equally quickly. Truman could feel that every time he saw a font clearly, the 'share' would fall down like a cliff.

It must be a very high-level characteristic.

Although its consumption is not as high as that of Seven Stars in One, it is still higher than any of the characteristics in Truman's hands.

Before Truman could express his feelings about Hannibal's wealth, the words on a bronze fragment caught his attention completely.

The words on the bronze fragment were clearly: three vellus hairs.

Update~ This book really followed the ups and downs of my life. My father was hospitalized and checked for a round before he found out that he had COVID-19. I hope I can persevere through it.
