C17 How could he know what a true immortal was?
Elder Qian asked, "How do we bet?"
Tang Lin pointed to the box in Elder Qian's hands: "Let's each pick a ginseng from inside, then compare the pros and cons, whoever chose the best ginseng will win."
Before Elder Qian could do anything, the rest of the people had already started laughing at him.
"This kid is really like a newborn calf that isn't afraid of a tiger. To be able to differentiate medicinal herbs in a match with Elder Qian, what arrogant words."
"Even without the Elder Qian coming out, I can kill you in a second, boy!"
"This kid is really arrogant."
Elder Qian was amused. "There's always a bet, you probably want to get the wild ginseng herb from this old man. If so, what price do you have to pay if you lose?"
"Senior, if you lose, I can choose a ginseng from your side." Tang Lin paused for a moment, and then said: "As for me losing, you can do whatever you want with me."
Elder Qian stroked his goatee, feeling that this brat was really interesting, wanting to bet everything on him.
This, on the contrary, made him interested. He opened the wood box seed in his hand and said: "In case you don't accept your loss, this old man will let you choose first."
Tang Lin was initially worried that the Radix Ginseng would be selected by the Elder Qian, but after hearing his words, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
When everyone was guessing which tree the Elder Qian would choose, the Elder Qian immediately closed off the wood box seed.
Tang Lin was a little surprised: "Why are you not choosing anymore?"
Elder Qian smiled slightly: "There is no need to choose, because you have already lost."
"Why?"
Elder Qian glanced at Manager Huang, then said: "wild ginseng herb, can be judged from the hair, skin, and tattoo. The ginseng you chose has a white beard and crisp skin. Its skin is tender and white, its stripes are rough and shallow, and it is not continuous. This proves that this ginseng is not a pure wild ginseng herb. "
When Manager Huang heard this, his face changed. That bastard actually lied to him for naught.
He quickly explained to Elder Qian, afraid that he would be misunderstood.
Tang Lin nodded, and said calmly: "Elder Qian didn't choose, how do you know it's this brat who lost?"
"Oh?"
Elder Qian raised his eyebrows and his interest was piqued. He no longer paid attention to Manager Huang and picked out a top-notch wild ginseng herb from the group of wood box seed.
He had already pointed out the inadequacy of the ginseng, and this youth was still insisting on comparing it. Could it be that the ginseng was very good and he was wrong about it?
Impossible, that ginseng was clearly not a pure wild ginseng herb. How could he have seen wrongly?
"This old man has already chosen." Elder Qian asked: "Little brother, how do you want to prove that the ginseng in your hands is better than the one in this old man's hands?"
In his heart, he had hoped that he had made a mistake, but this possibility almost never appeared.
In order to make up for the deceit, Manager Huang stood up and said loudly to everyone: "Today there is a young brat who is still wet behind the ears, wanting to compete with the noble father of Elder Qian in his herbology skills, everyone come to the judge, to see which party is stronger."
Hearing that, everyone turned to look at Elder Qian, only a small portion of them looked at the ginseng in Tang Lin's hand.
"The Elder Qian's ginseng has a long beard, it is old and tough, clear and long, and there are small grains of rice on it. Old skin, yellowish brown, closely textured and shiny. At the top of the hairy shoulder, there were fine, deep, screw shaped lines. It was a true wild ginseng herb.
Someone pointed out the pros and cons.
The others who were watching also followed suit. No one supported Tang Lin, everyone supported Elder Qian.
Elder Qian had a smile on his face, his heart at peace.
He did not care whether he won or not, but waited.
He was very curious as to where the youth's confidence came from. Was he really strong, or was he young and ignorant?
Tang Lin swept his eyes across the crowd and snorted: "A group of mortal people, how could they recognize a True Immortal?"
When everyone heard this, they were instantly enraged and began to insult him.
When the Elder Qian heard this, he became even more interested. This young man clearly knew that the ginseng in his hands was not a pure wild ginseng herb, and he actually said such big words, directly belittling everyone to the extent of not knowing anything, then he truly had strength?
Was he really mistaken?
The Elder Qian was confused, when he looked at the ginseng in Tang Lin's hand again, he did not see anything wrong with it.
Tang Lin did not speak anymore, and immediately activated the Spiritual Strength that was left in his body.
The Radix Ginseng that was quietly lying on the palm of his hand, under the stimulation of the Spiritual Strength, instantly emitted a bright red light. The rays of light made the Radix Ginseng look like a small red sun.
The crowd didn't move an inch. At this moment, they felt as though they were statues.
He was completely dumbfounded!
The ginseng could actually emit light! It was even a bloody red light!
Is this even an ordinary ginseng?
Everyone was shocked to the point of disbelief, doubting life.
This kind of glowing plant had only existed in myths and myths, so how could there be one in the real world?
The deep-rooted belief in everyone was completely broken by Tang Lin at this moment.
Everyone was so shocked that their eyes were wide open. They didn't even blink their eyes. Unknowingly, their mouths were wide open and their minds were blank …
Tang Lin stopped the Spiritual Strength s from circulating in his body and looked at everyone.
The red light had disappeared, and everyone had woken up from their shock. Anyone who looked at Tang Lin with their eyes lowered their head in embarrassment, not daring to say a word.
They were all embarrassed, especially those who said that Tang Lin was ignorant and arrogant, they were even more ashamed.
It was only now that they realized that the ignorant and conceited were themselves.
This seemingly ordinary youth was actually this extraordinary. Even the Chinese medical community's Taishan, Big Dipper Elder Qian, was inferior to this youth in terms of attainments in herbal medicine. The difference between the two was like heaven and earth; one was in heaven and the other in earth.
"This old man is convinced of his defeat!"
Elder Qian felt that his entire life had been lived in vain, there was actually such a miraculous ginseng in this world! There was actually such an unbelievable youth in this world!
Tang Lin was startled, he was surprised by Elder Qian's magnanimous heart, which was full of self-deprecation. After all, Elder Qian was extremely famous, and even though he had lost to an unknown brat like him, he did not have a shred of disapproval or rebuttal, nor did he have any power to suppress anyone. No wonder Elder Qian was so respected.
But Manager Huang's words caused Tang Lin to frown.
"Brat, hand over this ginseng or don't even think of leaving this place!"
