Of course, if he didn’t answer, he would also lose his life.
First, let’s confirm whether the question asked by this old Taoist is the same as what I saw with my left eye.
Thoughts in Xu Taiping’s mind turned rapidly, and then he nodded at the old Taoist and said with a calm smile:
Alright.
Judging from the scene seen with his left eye, the strength of this old Taoist has also reached an incredible level. Even if he uses all his strength, he can only barely resist one or two moves.
The most crucial thing is that, according to the words he heard when he was on the verge of death in the second scene.
The reason why this old Taoist killed him was just to test his skills before fighting with his enemy later. It was just his bad luck to meet him.
If Xu Taiping refused to answer now, the old Taoist would definitely take action immediately.
So in fact, he had no choice but to agree.
Young people are so straightforward in doing things.
Seeing that Xu Taiping answered so simply, the old Taoist nodded in satisfaction.
Immediately, he took out two porcelain dolls from his sleeve, carefully placed them on the table, and then asked Xu Taiping with a smile:
Young man, come and take a look. Which of these two porcelain dolls is uglier?
Upon hearing this question, the fingers of Xu Taiping’s hand placed in his sleeve trembled slightly.
Sure enough, it’s still this question.
He let out a sigh of relief in his heart and said.
Because in the scene seen by his left eye, the question asked by the old Taoist priest for him to answer was also this question.
“Daozhang, can you let me take a closer look before answering?”
Xu Taiping asked the old Taoist priest.
“Of course.”
The old Taoist priest readily agreed and then stretched out his hand, making a gesture of invitation.
Xu Taiping nodded, and then extremely carefully picked up the porcelain figurine on the left from the table and began to carefully look at it.
Seeing this scene, a hint of approval appeared in the turbid pupil of the old Taoist priest.
And Xu Taiping felt that the faint, cold and murderous aura on this old Taoist priest was much less at this moment.
“It seems that in the second scene related to the Dixi Tribulation seen by the left eye, the words I heard when I was on the verge of death were also correct.”
Xu Taiping let out another sigh of relief.
Although the time for the blood rain to fall is getting closer and closer, he did not perfunctorily deal with it because of this, but carefully examine every detail of these two porcelain figurines.
According to the sentence he heard before “dying”, choosing the uglier one from the two porcelain figurines is not the key to answering the old Taoist priest’s question.
Because the prototypes of these two porcelain figurines are the deceased wife and daughter of this old Taoist priest.
So no matter who you say is ugly, he will kill you.
After carefully examined these two porcelain figurines for a while, Xu Taiping discovered that although the appearance of these two porcelain figurines seemed rough, in fact, whether it was the expression of the eyebrows and eyes or the standing posture, they were all vivid and lifelike.
For example, in the case of the porcelain figurine in the shape of a young girl, when you look closely, you can even see the blood vessels and blue veins on the back of her hand, and even the cloth tiger she is holding in her arms is clearly visible.
The porcelain figurine in the shape of a woman is holding a patched and folded piece of clothing in her hand, and you can even see many small wounds and thick calluses on her fingers.
And the eyes of the two porcelain figurines are also very vivid. The woman’s eyes are full of worry and the girl’s eyes are full of reluctance.
This is clearly a scene of a mother and daughter seeing off their relatives.
To be honest, even if it wasn’t from the perspective of saving his life, after carefully observing these two porcelain figurines, Xu Taiping couldn’t put the evaluation of “ugly” on these two people.
Even if the appearances of the two people were indeed very ordinary.
”Daozhang, I can’t choose.”
Xu Taiping put down the two porcelain figurines.
Upon hearing this, a trace of malice flashed in the eyes of the old Taoist priest. If it weren’t at the fact that his impression of Xu Taiping was still quite good just now, I’m afraid he would have already reached out to pick off his head at this time.
“Oh, tell me, why can’t you choose? Could it be that you think both of these porcelain figurines are ugly?”
The old Taoist looked at Xu Taiping with a smile.
This smile made Xu Taiping’s heart tremble.
But on his face, he still remained calm and said:
“No, these two porcelain figurines, one is a mother who works hard at home, and the other is a girl who is reluctant to part with her relatives. They should not be evaluated by beauty or ugliness.”
This was Xu Taiping’s true words.
Upon hearing this, the trace of hostility hidden in the old Taoist’s eyes suddenly dissipated. However, he did not end this question and continued to ask Xu Taiping:
“If I, the old Taoist, still ask you to find the ugliest one among these two porcelain figurines?”
Hearing this, Xu Taiping fell silent.
Actually, he knew that his previous answer could already be considered as passing the test.
But for the old Taoist’s question, he had an answer in his heart that he couldn’t help but say. However, this answer was very likely to offend the old Taoist.
After seriously thinking for a while, Xu Taiping finally followed his heart and said that answer:
“If we really have to say the ugliest one, it should be the one who left these two porcelain figurines without saying goodbye.”
Hearing this, the old Taoist was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a somewhat cold look:
“But I asked about these two porcelain figurines.”
“Without the person who left without saying goodbye, these two porcelain figurines would not exist.”
Xu Taiping shook his head.
While speaking, he had already made the gesture to perform the Azure Luan Ring.
And after hearing Xu Taiping’s answer, the old Taoist priest first fell silent, and then laughed loudly with a hint of madness, saying:
“That’s right, young man, you’re right. The ugliest one is precisely the one who left these mother and daughter without saying goodbye!”
