Chapter Thirty-Eight: True Rumors
And sure enough... If the other party is voluntary, I don't think there is any problem, some progress is only to trample on thousands of corpses to reach a certain height, I respect these people who are willing to sacrifice their lives for it. But now that I'm more concerned about such a valuable stone, there must be a lot of people who steal and sell it, right?"
Yifu's reaction was far beyond Xue Erxun's imagination. I thought she would find it difficult to accept such a thing, but I didn't expect her to have such an opinion.
Just time saved for explanation.
"Yes, so in the place where the Holy Light Stone is buried, there will be a specific guardian stationed there, as long as you have a certificate of access to the qualification agency, as well as the identity certificate of the top collector. β
Xue Erxun said as he took out a note in his backpack with a somewhat worn cover, some of which were relatively new and some of which had been written a few years ago.
"This is the burial place of some of the Holy Light Stones I got, which records all kinds of data of the Holy Light Stones. She rummaged through her notes, as if she couldn't find a suitable fit, and she shook her head.
"Is the quality required by the academy very high?"
"Well, although the quality of those institutes and academies in the past was also very high, this time it is already close to the flawless level, and I didn't find a suitable one in my notes. β
"So what now?" she didn't know and wasn't good at finding these things, so she had to rely on Xue Erxun for everything.
"Don't worry, I know a place that will definitely meet their needs. β
As soon as Yi Fu wanted to ask where it was, the car hired by Xue Erxun drove towards the two, as if she knew that she wanted to ask a question, she opened her mouth to answer her question, but unfortunately the car stopped and made a noise, and the noisy sound made Yi Fu unable to hear what she was talking about, and she was not embarrassed to repeat it after getting into the car.
This journey is indeed as long as Xue Erxun said, but fortunately, she has been telling Yi Fu about novel plants, trees and stones to relieve boredom, Yi Fu listened while sighing that Xue Erxun is indeed a talented person, based on her explanation just now, Yi Fu could not imagine that she had only studied natural science for a year.
While being attracted by the explanation, she occasionally paid attention to the movements in the address book, which was already afternoon, but it was still quiet in the address book.
What the hell were they busy with, and they didn't even move for so long, and this kind of thing had never happened before.
"By the way, have you heard a rumor lately?"
Sheel saw that she was silent, and thought that she was not interested in her words, so she changed the subject.
"What rumors?"
Ifu was pulled out of her thoughts and asked.
"I think you're interested. Sheel was looking for a pass, and after seeing Yi Fu's expectant eyes, she didn't want to hang her appetite anymore: "Earl of Night." β
The Earl of Darkness incident in the Blind Mountain has also been a hot topic in the Tin Throne recently.
On the distant castle of the Blind Mountain, the family of the Counts, who were once in the Tin Throne, lived a lonely life in isolation.
But not long ago, the new earl suddenly opened the blind mountain and invited the family's former relatives and friends to come here.
And the horror happened on the night of the meeting.
Originally, there would be a ballroom dance party after the meal, and many families who had not been in touch for a long time could use it to talk about some cooperation or enhance friendship with each other.
But after the meal, the servant said that the Count had a new idea, and that the ball would be postponed for a while, during which the Count's game would be played.
The name of the game was "Finding the Head", and everyone was puzzled and asked the servant.
The servant hesitated for a long time before he realized that the earl's youngest son had disappeared, and hoped that you would help him to find it, and that whoever found it first would receive a rich rewardβa third of the earl's property.
Hearing this number, everyone present boiled over, and began to rummage through the castle, hoping to find the earl's youngest son.
But the little master seemed to have evaporated from the world and disappeared without a trace.
The guards at the door swore that the young master would never go out today, and the servants also said that they saw the young master running around in the dance hall before the dinner.
Look for it, it must still be in the castle - the guests said this, ostensibly because they feared for the safety of their children, but in fact no one wanted to let go of this huge wealth.
Later, a gentleman found the underground passage of the Earl's house, which was a dark and damp tunnel that occasionally emitted a rancid smell.
Maybe it's the little master playing an adventure game below.
Thinking of one-third of the family property, the gentleman didn't care about the dirty and messy tunnel in front of him, and went in with an oil lamp.
After some time, another lady discovered the tunnel, but she was greedy but too timid, and cautiously ordered her to call the guard and her husband down the tunnel.
The group walked through the tunnels for a long time and still did not gain anything, but at this moment, the lady suddenly screamed, and her fingers froze in mid-air.
Looking in the direction of her finger, she found that it was the gentleman who had died, and had countless javelins pierced on his body, and was the first to go down.
And under his feet was a blood-stained white bone, and the ground was soaked with blood, and if you looked closely, you would find that there were some hairs of the same color as the young master, and some strange things.
At this moment, a shadow slowly approached them.
The guests upstairs searched for a long time and did not find the figure of the little master, on the contrary, some keen people found that the guests seemed to be getting fewer and fewer, and the guard said that no one had left tonight, but they also disappeared out of thin air, and they did not know where they went.
Some people can't stand the atmosphere and no longer crave any possessions, so they pick up their belongings and leave.
Some people were still anxiously searching because their relatives, friends and family members were gone, and they formed a team and finally found the underground passage.
The next day, a strange rumor began to spread.
The vegetable farmer who delivered the vegetables had no longer ordered the dishes because he remembered that the earl's house had stopped ordering them, so he came to the Blind Mountain early in the morning according to his previous habits.
The blind mountain, which is usually shrouded in gray fog, has a feeling of black clouds overpowering the city today, which makes the vegetable farmers a little worried about their safety, so they raised their heads and glanced at the sky.
A face in a bat's cloak is reflected in the sky.
In the afternoon, several groups of guards went in the direction of the Blind Mountain, as if to confirm the rumor.
The above story is also a more complete version that has appeared since then.
Perhaps it was because they were afraid of bad influences, so the guards decided that this incident was a rumor.
