503 Feather of Truth

The following day, Richard settled in the city of Florence.

The first thing to settle down is to follow the clues left in the cat slave girl Heidi's letter and try to find the other party.

But Floren has great advantages and disadvantages.The disadvantage is that it is too difficult to find someone without specific information.Rao is that he hired a large number of people, let everyone face the cold wind, looking for people next to the street, looking for things related to the mark, still can not find.

After the initial period of unsuccessful efforts, he had to lower the expectations in his mind, while asking the employer to continue to work hard, and any news immediately told him, while he was busy with other things, such as research projects, such as the Black Spirit The secret of the king.

After all, he came to the North, to Moore, to Florence, not only to meet the cat slave girl, but also for the rest of the purpose.

In this way, time passes by day by day, and the entire cold winter slowly slips away-came to Floren, it is already the end of the year-the snow moon in December, the ice moon in January, two After the freezing month of the month, it is March.

March, warm month.

According to the tradition of the East Coast, March, April and May are spring each year, and the rest of the seasons are successively extended. March is the beginning of spring and is the day of recovery of everything-also called the recovery month.

This month, the beginning of the month.

Floren, a tip.

A dilapidated stone building stands, and the walls are covered with cracks. It seems to collapse at any time, and then bury the people living in and the people passing by.Pedestrians passing by this stone building did not dare to stay at all, lest they might be unlucky.Few people thought that there was another scenery below this stone building.

The underground of the stone building is a hidden underground hall, about 300 square meters, a wooden platform occupies one third of the hall's area, and the rest are scattered with fifty chairs. Almost half of them were seated on chairs.

Everyone who sits is wearing a cloak to cover his face and prevent him from being recognized.Occasionally raising a wooden sign to report the number is also a false voice, very cautious.

On the wooden platform, there was a skinny man wearing a shiny, glass-fragmented dress, speaking aloud, introducing items one by one, and trying to make the life below the desire to buy.

Obviously this is an auction.

To be precise, this is a gray auction that is walking on the edge of the law.

About half a month ago, Richard contacted some people and learned of the existence of the auction. After spending a lot of time to get the invitation letter, Richard came here.

To be honest, he didn't want to come if he didn't want to get some missing materials.Because there is something irregular here, the auctioneer will basically not guarantee any interest of the bidder except collecting money to sell things, so the auctioneer will try his best to protect his identity.

Even so, there were still bidders in the previous auctions, who were tracked as soon as they went out, then were ambushed and robbed of everything on their bodies—even without clothes.

Affected by this negative influence, those who dare to come to the auction now are some people who have confidence in their own strength. There are very few ordinary people, most of them are wizard apprentices, and some wandering wizards.

Everyone is extremely vigilant, sitting quietly on the seat, looking at the wooden table.But in fact, only less than three points of attention are placed on the wooden platform, and the other seven points are focused on the people next to each other.If you want to find out who is next to you, do you have a bad idea of ​​yourself?

Richard sat in a corner of the auction house, feeling the tight atmosphere around him, and shook his head uncontrollably.He is not much nervous here. On the one hand, he is very relieved of his own strength. On the other hand, the white feathers in his arms give him a special reminder.

Yes, White Feather, reminded him.

After a winter, although he did not fully understand what white feathers are, he also understood some functions-there are two main functions.

The first one is the cracking illusion that I have seen before.According to the test, white feathers have a very strong defensive effect on some aggressive and deceptive spiritual spells. It can be said that as long as they wear white feathers, they will basically not suffer from mental spells.

The second one is related to spirit, or emotion.White Feather can feel some obvious malicious and goodwill emanating from it, and thus produce some changes.

This change, in fact, he had already noticed on the original ship, just because there were too few data to draw conclusions.Now after a winter, it is certain that white feathers will become hot if they feel clear goodwill, and will become cold when they feel clear maliciousness.

In a sense, white feathers are equivalent to an identity recognizer. Through hot and cold, you can quickly determine whether a person is good or bad.Of course, if a bad person hides his emotions and heart extremely well, it is difficult to detect white feathers, but this is rarely seen.

Unreality, and recognition of good and evil, are the two functions of white feathers.

To sum up, you can use two words to describe white feathers — pure, one word to describe — true.

White feathers have a certain meaning, as if they existed specifically to distinguish between illusion and reality, camouflage and friendliness.

Richard is not sure about the mentality of the clown giving him this gift, or whether white feathers have a more important role, but as he now understands, white feathers make him easily think of an item in the legend of the earth— -Feather of truth.

The feather of truth!

The feather of truth comes from ancient Egyptian myths and legends.

According to legend, after death in ancient Egypt, everyone would enter the world of the deceased, "Duet", where they met Anubis, the god of death of the jackal head.

Anubis has a scale of judgment to judge a person's good and evil. He puts the heart of the dead on one end of the scale of judgment, and puts the feather of truth on the other end of the scale of judgment-from truth Taken from the "Matt" goddess of order.

If a person is kind, the heart will be lighter than the feather of truth, and eternal life can be obtained.If a person is evil and does all the bad things, his heart will be heavier than the feather of truth, and he will be punished.

In Richard's view, the White Feather is now used by him against the rest, even if it is a weakened version of "trial".There may be some loopholes, which will not be deceived like the legendary Anubis, but it will not be too much, and it fully meets daily needs.

Therefore, he decided to call the white feather "the feather of judgment." He would not rely entirely on this thing to judge whether a person is good or bad, but it can be used to determine the complexity of the surrounding environment to a large extent.

For example, now, he can use the coolness revealed from time to time on the surface of the "Feather of Judgment" to determine that at least three people in the vicinity are malicious to him.However, this maliciousness is only the lowest level, and has not reached the level of killing and surpassing goods. It seems that he is currently safe and can continue to rest assured.

Thinking this way, he looked towards the wooden platform.
