Yuan Ying is still in the adaptation period, and Du Shen needs to stay in the magic bracelet for most of the day. What's more, the longer he stays in Colin's body, the more likely he is to be polluted and assimilated.

If it wasn't necessary, Du Shen wouldn't want to meet with others as Colin. It's just that the border guards are the army after all. They begged to see Du Shen more than a dozen times to no avail, and directly sent people to block the roads around the exchange.

The exchangers could not even reach the gate of the exchange, and the business of the exchange naturally stopped.

Seeing that the military was so anxious that they disregarded the feelings of both sides, they directly resorted to brutal measures. Du Shen was worried that if they didn't meet again, the other party would behave more. He asked the butler Parry to make the arrangements.

At noon that day, a convoy of horses arrived at one of the Lando's estates. The horse team rode more than 30 horses in front and back, and there was only one carriage in the middle. There were two people in the carriage, General Martin, the supreme commander of the border guards, and Lord Luthor, the tax collector and consul of the fortress.

These two people, both of whom belong to the border guard system, are the most powerful people in charge of the Nanhe Fortress.

The two dismounted, led by Parry, and walked into a villa alone. In the study of the villa, Du Shen controlled Colin's body and waited for a long time.

Du Shen took the initiative to get up to greet him and saluted: "Good afternoon, two adults." ”

"Hmph," Martin grimaced, looking angry, "Master Colin is really busy!" We asked to see us more than a dozen times, but we were all denied. In vain, I had some friendship with your father back then, and I am your elder. ”

Luther smiled kindly, "Young Master Colin, I'm very sorry for the dozen interruptions we have made before. It's really what you have that excites you. Those alchemy products are the key to defending and attacking. Regain lost ground and restore the glory of humanity. This hope is in your hands! ”

Du Shen "hehe" Yile, stretched out his hand sideways to invite: "Please sit down, two of you." ”

The three of them sat down, and Parry poured tea on the side.

Martin was about to vent his dissatisfaction, but was interrupted by Du Shen.

Du Shen smiled: "Because of the manufacture of alchemy products, my time is very tight. Let's just talk about it, long story short. The purpose of the visit, I have some guesses. Why don't you start with the minimum requirements and see if I can meet them. ”

Before, Martin was just about to vent his dissatisfaction, but was blocked by Du Shen's words. He wasn't happy. When he heard Du Shen's words, he became more and more angry. He snorted heavily: "What do you mean, that is, no matter what we ask, you don't plan to meet it?" ”

Because Du Shen was a puppet controlling, Colin's smile was a little stiff. In the eyes of Martin and the others, this is hypocrisy. Martin was really annoyed.

Luthor has an elegant temperament and a gentle smile: "We are here to make amends to Lord Colin. Before, the following tax officials were very meritorious, and despite your promise, they came to collect taxes twice in three days. We've punished that quick bastard. ”

Du Shen didn't have the heart to rub in with the two. He sighed: "It's not a secret, in fact, I am suffering from a strange disease in my lower body." If you're not careful, you'll fall asleep. Let's hurry up and get down to business. ”

Luther and Martin quickly looked at each other. They had already bribed the servants of the Lando family, and learned from this that Colin had been in poor health lately, very lethargic, and occasionally really fell into a coma.

Luther groaned for a moment and changed his strategy: "We want to meet the master behind the Alchemy Society. ”

Du Shen smiled: "I'll tell you the truth, there is no alchemy association at all." All the alchemy products sold on the exchange are actually made by me. Remember, I was digging a lot of mines, right? Actually, my purpose is not mining, but finding an ancient artifact. It is precisely because of that artifact that I can create corpse water, and I can refine all kinds of magical props through magic energy stones. ”

Martin and Luthor looked at each other. The two looked at each other speechless for a long time. Martin was skeptical: "What you said, is it true?" Can you give us a look at the eye device? ”

Du Shen smiled: "Two of you, change places, if you find an artifact, are you willing to let others see it?" ”

"That is," said Luther's smile meaningfully, "Your Excellency cannot prove that what you say is true or false. ”

Du Shen shrugged his shoulders lightly and said indifferently: "What I said is the truth." No proof is required. ”

"You can't prove it at all," Martin slapped the table hard, shaking the milk tea to overflow slightly, "Ancient artifact? Are you mud kids in the country when we are? It's so easy to deceive! You can find an artifact by digging a mine casually? This kind of thing doesn't happen in mythological poetry! ”

Du Shen spread his hands helplessly: "What I said is really the truth." Otherwise, how could I be mining around? Otherwise, how could I suddenly have a large amount of money to pay off my debts that have accumulated for many years? It's all because I've found an ancient treasure! ”

"Hah!" Martin shook his head and sneered. Du Shen raised a question, and he couldn't find a reasonable explanation for a while. But he was sure that Du Shen was lying. Maybe all kinds of doubts are just the smoke deliberately arranged by Du Shen to hide the mysterious organization behind him.

Luther frowned slightly, thinking deeper: "Even if Colin finds the artifact, he will say it?" It doesn't make sense! He didn't say, who would have thought that he would find an artifact? His words are obviously lies and pretexts! ”

Du Shen's next words strengthened the speculation in Luther's heart: "Because of the use of artifacts to make various props. The two wanted to meet the masters behind the Alchemy Society, and it was impossible to achieve it. Don't count on manufacturing know-how. The artifact recognizes the owner, others can't use it, and I can't get any technology at all. ”

The two Luther were silent for a moment. Martin asked sternly, "That's what you made up your mind?" Nothing to tell? Are you still not a nobleman of the kingdom? You know the meaning of those alchemy products, but our kingdom is in danger......"

Du Shen raised his hand and interrupted softly: "Your Excellency General, please don't use righteousness to oppress people. I can only tell you with certainty. If you don't want technology, if you want to take shortcuts, if you want more alchemy products, please exchange them for magic energy stones! ”

Martin stood up suddenly, narrowed his eyes, and glared at Du Shen. His body exuded a faint evil aura, like a tiger about to pounce: "As a nobleman, he does not fulfill his obligation to defend the country. I arrest you now, in the name of the border command! ”

"Why bother so much," Du Shen got up, approached Martin, and raised his hands slightly, "Your Excellency the General might as well stab me to death with a sword, I will never resist." ”

"You think I wouldn't dare?" Martin was furious. He subconsciously touched his waist, and then realized that he was here to negotiate today, and he didn't carry a weapon. As soon as he thought about it, he pounced on Du Shen, raised his sandbag-sized fist, and smashed it down.

"The general is angry!" Luther was shocked and hurriedly pounced to stop Martin.

Du Shen stood calmly in place, smiling, motionless, and let the sandbag-sized iron fist approach rapidly. Martin's fist failed to hit Colin in the cheek after all. The fist wind brushed past Du Shen's ears. Martin was grabbed by Luthor and stumbled backwards.

"I'm sorry, I can't satisfy the two of you," Du Shen apologized, "That's the truth." There is no alchemical society at all, and there is no technology. Either kill me outright, or exchange the magic stones for the items you need. Remind the two of you, it's not the Nanhe Fortress that has border guards! ”

Du Shen smiled slightly and walked to the wooden door in the depths of the study: "Parry, please send the two adults away." I need to sleep and don't want to be disturbed. ”

"Bastard!" Martin was furious, raised his foot and was about to rush towards Du Shen, but was held by Luther.

Du Shen's figure disappeared behind the wooden door. Parry walked up to the two of them and whispered, "Two adults, please go back." Our young master really can't do anything. I believe that if he can, the young master will definitely help the two adults. ”

Martin glanced at Parry and walked out the door as Luthor pulled him.

The two boarded the carriage and left the estate. Martin, who was originally gloomy, suddenly relaxed, and there was still half a point of anger. Martin frowned and rubbed his smooth chin: "It's not funny!" That kid really doesn't seem to be afraid of death. His performance just now is difficult to see even for elite scouts. ”

Luthor nodded: "Maybe he's being controlled, and he really can't help it." He's finally warning us to follow the rules, or we'll move, right? ”

Martin sighed. There was a dull moment in the carriage.

For a long time, Luthor asked, "Could there really be an artifact?" ”

"Do you believe it," Martin asked, shaking his head, "That's it." It must be an arrangement organized behind the scenes. Trying to fool us with the existence of an artifact. Too naïve! What a shoddy excuse! ”

Luther smiled wryly, "They don't need any elaborate excuses. The situation is stronger than the man. We wanted their products, but we couldn't help it, we couldn't even find them. What can we do if they use a more clumsy excuse? ”

Martin's gaze turned cold: "I never knew that such a huge mysterious force was hidden in the kingdom. It seems that the other party has bad intentions! ”
