Chapter 280: Intelligence
A few days later, late at night, the Dragon Mine.
Lu Fan's figure appeared in front of the ruins, looking at everything in front of him.
After the last battle, this place has been completely destroyed, and for a mine that is originally Airy Metal, this loss is also very large.
Looking at this pile of rubble, Lu Fan still had a headache.
Do you have to dig it yourself, there are too many of these stones.
"What people!"
A voice sounded behind him, and Lu Fan looked back and saw a dragon steward with a bandage on his hand.
"It's you!"
Seeing that the person who sneaked in was actually Lu Fan a few days ago, Steward Long subconsciously took a step back.
"What, do you still want to do something to me?"
Lu Fan looked at the dragon steward who was obviously not well injured, twisted his neck, and made a look like he was going to make a move.
“...... Your wanted notices have been canceled, and our mines are going to be investigated by the Empire, so there's no need to do anything. ”
Unexpectedly, the dragon steward didn't have any intention of making a move, and what he said made Lu Fan frown even more.
"Wanted, cancelled?"
"yes. Steward Long looked at Lu Fan's surprised appearance, knowing that he didn't know about this yet, and he didn't know what kind of psychology it was, he actually opened his mouth and said, "If you don't mind, is it convenient to come with me?"
"Why not?"
Lu Fan put his hands behind his back and walked forward with this dragon steward.
After a while, Lu Fan entered another building with him, and the previous battle did not completely destroy this place, but still left this kind of office-like room.
"Would you like something to drink?"
What Lu Fan didn't expect was that he was rummaging through the cabinet for things like tea and coffee as if he was entertaining guests.
"No, I just want to know what's the matter with you and what's going on with this wanted cancellation. ”
"I didn't expect you to have this kind of energy, but you don't know why. Steward Long put down the bottles and cans and took out a piece of paper from the table.
Lu Fan took the paper and looked at it carefully.
I didn't expect it...... It turned out to be Mr. Blanche and ...... And Moyin.
Seeing the contents of the paper, Lu Fanton felt that his eyes were a little moist.
This is the feeling of having friends and relatives, and it has been more than a year since I came to the other world, although Xiaoqian has always been by my side, but this feeling is the first time.
The feeling that someone can come out and help you when you're out in trouble.
"Thank you for informing, so what are you looking for me?" Looking at the dragon steward in front of him, Lu Fan put away this document.
"Before you talk about it, can you tell me why you came here again late at night?" Steward Long stared at Lu Fan's eyes and asked seriously.
"The bones of dragons. Lu Fan scratched his neck, "For some reason, I have some friendship with my friends of these two dragons, and I promised to bring back their bones, so ...... I'm coming back to fetch that pile of stuff underground. ”
But as soon as he said it, Lu Fan regretted it a little.
Who would believe this statement?
Steward Long looked at Lu Fan's eyes carefully, but suddenly shook his head.
"It doesn't matter what, if you're taking those things with you, that's fine. ”
Looking at his appearance, as if he had long wanted to dispose of these things, Lu Fan couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's the matter......?
"That's why. Steward Long suddenly interrupted Lu Fan's words, "Although he is the hero of the Long family and the strongest person in the Long family, the Long family has always been very dissatisfied with the things he has done for so many years, and wants to get rid of them." ”
And this kind of thing?
Lu Fan felt that his curiosity had been aroused, and continued to ask, "What did he do?" ”
"In fact, the heads of the family in the past generations know that he is not dead, and every steward who comes here to manage the mine will also know about it, and will manage the mine here for the rest of his life, doing things for him, until the arrival of the next generation, the Long family will not have more than 5 insiders per generation. Steward Long showed a look of pain and said slowly.
According to the content of his mouth, Lu Fan roughly understood the whole story.
Back then, after Long Zaitian and the powerhouses killed the giant dragon at a painful price, Long Zaitian did not make any further progress in strength for many years because of his injuries.
And one day, when he came back from afar, it was like a different person, flipping through a book all day long, and he kept saying that there was salvation and salvation.
Then, he made a fake death, and he came here, the dragon mine under the care of the Long family, and found a way to get the dragon's bones.
Since then, the dragon has never left this place for hundreds of years.
And every steward who comes here, in addition to managing this mine, is to do something for Long Zaitian.
These things are nothing more than to purchase the corresponding materials and ......
Send the "sacrifice" into the ground.
Some of these "sacrifices" made up of living people were employees who were recruited into the mine first, and some were secretly found by the dragon steward, and they were all sent down and became materials for him alone.
His purpose, in fact, the dragon steward is not clear, but he didn't want to do these things, because of Long Zaitian's strength and family reasons, there has been no way.
So he naturally didn't expect that one day, a man and two women would come here and kill the dragon in the sky that he had feared from the bottom of his heart, and completely destroy it all.
Why did he try to prevent Lu Fan and the others from investigating before, it was for fear of angering Long Zaitian, he had the honor to see the appearance of this old ancestor's living sacrifice, and it was still a shadow of his psyche, he was afraid that if Long Zaitian was provoked by this group of people and came out to kill, then everything would be over.
If you are finished, the Long family is also finished.
"So what kind of book is he reading?" Lu Fan was a little curious about this book.
"I don't know, except for the old ancestor, no one has seen that book. Steward Long shook his head.
Lu Fan nodded, he also had some understanding of all this.
originally thought that he had raised a big killing weapon, but after hundreds of years, Long Zaitian not only did not have any expression, but did more and more excessively, the Long family wanted to get rid of this burden, and was worried about his strength.
After all, level 8, the ancestor of the Usa Empire is nothing more than that, and it is an absolute nuclear bomb in the empire.
"Those things, we've pulled them all up when we've cleaned them up in the past few days, do you need them now? ”
"Take me, I can take it alone. ”
Lu Fan nodded.
Steward Long seemed to want to question something, but after thinking about it, he didn't speak, got up and walked outside with Lu Fan.
"That's it. ”
Lu Fan looked at the dragon skeleton in front of him that was not crushed, and stretched out a hand to touch it.
Suddenly, the entire skeleton disappeared in front of him.
And the dragon steward showed a clear expression.
This guy ...... Sure enough, there is such a huge space to store props, and I don't know how deep the background is.
In fact, this is a misunderstanding, Lu Fan's backpack is calculated according to the grid, although this skeleton is large, it is just a [dragon's skeleton] in the backpack.
"Do you know where the other one is?" Lu Fan asked, looking back at Steward Long.
"The imperial capital, Liao Wangjing. Steward Long nodded, "Inside the royal storehouse." ”
"That's not hard. Lu Fan felt relaxed for a while, anyway, he returned to the imperial capital with Xi Ruhui, if everything was handled properly, she should be the empress, and she would have to find her when the time came.
Speaking of this, Lu Fan suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Do you know that the woman who followed me next to me is really the second princess?" ”
"Yes, but it doesn't make sense. Steward Long seemed to have guessed what Lu Fan wanted to ask, he shook his head, "The emperor doesn't know that the second princess is still alive, maybe only the eldest princess." ”
"Oh?"
That's interesting.
"The enemy family, the Long family, the Tiger family, the Chen family. Long Zaitian said lightly, "The four major families in the imperial capital, the Qiu family and the Long family are all from the Great Empress faction, the Chen family is from the Second Empress faction, and the Hu family has never expressed its position. ”
"Listen to what you mean, although the Great Empress has power...... But more power is in the hands of the enemy family and your Long family. Lu Fan suddenly grinned, "The eldest princess is expected by everyone on the surface, but it is more likely that she is the credit of your two families, she is just a vase?"
"The vase is not so bad. Steward Long's expression still didn't change, "It's rumored that the eldest princess doesn't have the right to inherit, but it's just that both of us insist, we need her, and she needs us." ”
This Xi Ruhui really doesn't know what to play.
Hearing this, Lu Fan sighed, even this dragon steward knew that Princess Hui'er didn't know anything.
There is also the Chen family, since they were sent by the second princess, they didn't see them to help.
"I don't know where you took the second princess to go, but I'm afraid it's impossible to think of the Sirikas Mountains, the surrounding checkpoints have quadruple the number of troops in the past few days, it seems that even if your wanted warrant is removed, they won't let you go back before the enthronement ceremony. ”
Seeing Lu Fan's thoughtful expression, Steward Long seemed to remind him intentionally.
"It doesn't hurt. ”
The New Year is just a few days away.
Lu Fan counted the days and continued to ask: "After the enthronement ceremony, is everything finalized?" ”
"Yes, at that time, the Empress will be the Empress forever. ”
That's enough time, two months.
But thinking of this, Lu Fan looked at Steward Long with strange eyes: "You are from the Long family, and I also injured you, as for telling me so much?"
"Who knows, and I don't know why. ”
Hearing Lu Fan's words, Steward Long's eyes were a little fluttering, and his thoughts flew back to 10 years ago.
"Uncle...... Why did you lie to me. ”
That little girl died in front of her, the eyes of the dragon before she was devoured by the sky, I am afraid that I will not be able to forget it in my life, maybe ...... That's why, right?
