Zhu Baolin continued: "At that time, the younger generation of the four major families were all studying in the same private school, and they happened to go out to travel that year, so the four of them went together and arrived in the area of Jinsha County in the south of Dingzhou City. 35xs”

"Gold mines?" everyone was taken aback.

Zhu Baolin said proudly: "Our Dingzhou area, no iron, no copper, but there are as many as three gold mines, although there is no gold mine around Jinsha County, but since ancient times, Jinsha has been found in the river outside the county, so the river is called Jinsha River, and the county by the river is destined to be Jinsha County." ”

Everyone nodded again and again when they heard this, and then they knew that this county and this river still had such a name.

Fang Ling was moved, he didn't expect that although there were not many people in Dingzhou, there were three gold mines, no wonder he came all the way to see that the land of the county was quite solid, if he could firmly grasp Dingzhou in his hands, then it would be of great help to his own strength. Thinking about it this way, he was even more determined to solve the problem of the five major towns, as long as the four major clans were subdued, then Dingzhou would be in the bag.

"What about after the discovery of the gold mine?" Song Ying'er was stunned and asked.

Zhu Baolin said with a solemn expression: "It was a good thing to find a gold mine, but there was an accident in the middle, it is said that the four sons were curious to enter the mine, wanting to explore how big the gold mine was, but on the way back, the mine suddenly collapsed, and the two sons of Zheng Wu who were behind were locked in the mine. Bai Wei's two sons were scholars, and they had no way to move the collapsed boulder, so they had to return to Jinsha County and ask someone to tell their families and Zheng Wu what had happened. After the men and horses of the four great families arrived, they immediately cleaned up the collapsed ground and searched for the whereabouts of the two sons in the mine. However, the terrain inside the mine is complicated, not only with cobweb-like intricate roads, but also with underground rivers formed by turbulent underground water flows, so in the end, the two sons were not found. Of course, the two Zheng Wu families didn't believe that it was just an accident, but thought that Bai Wei and the two killed Zheng Wu's two sons in order to carve up the gold mine. ”

Everyone couldn't help frowning when they heard this, Fang Ling also sank in his heart, although he expected that there would be a deeper contradiction between the Dawang clan just now, but he didn't expect it to be two lives, if it was just a simple dispute of economic interests, then he could use his magic tricks to resolve it, but this involved human lives, and things became extremely complicated, if you want to untie the knot of the four families, I am afraid that it will not be easy.

I only heard Zhu Baolin say again: "More troublesome things are still to come, the Bai Wei family insisted that it was an accident, because it was the Bai family son who first discovered the gold mine, so the two families decided to give only a small part of the gold mining rights to the Zheng Wu family, these two families are not vegetarians, of course, they will not give up, and threaten to give them color." As a result, it didn't take long for Bai Wei's two sons to be discovered at the same time one morning and turned into two stone figures. ”

"What, Shiren?" the crowd was taken aback and looked at each other.

Fang Ling turned his head to look at Zhu Baolin and asked in a deep voice, "What the hell is going on with this stone man?"

Zhu Baolin explained: "It is said that after the two sons finished their meal that night, they both returned to the inn in Jinsha County to rest, but the next morning there was a scream in the room of the two, and everyone broke in to take a look and found that the two of them had turned to stone while struggling. ”

"This ...... This is too weird, how can people turn into stones? Could it be a means to hide people's ears?" Dong Canghai couldn't help but wonder.

Zhu Baolin smiled bitterly: "This thing is true, I have seen it in Baifu with my own eyes, at that time, the two great families of Bai Wei searched for famous doctors, but none of them found out the cause, let alone whether the two were still alive." ”

Song Ying'er couldn't help but glance at Fang Ling, Fang Ling saw it in her eyes, knowing what she was thinking, such a strange thing would inevitably be associated with the matter of cultivating the truth. Flashing 35xs, the already troublesome things are even more confusing.

Zhu Baolin said: "The two Bai Wei families think that the two sons must be Zheng Wu's two families who invited the evil witches from the south to come over, and cast the evil law, in order to retaliate against the two families for refusing to give them more gold mines, so the two sides began to fight each other, and the fight was very fierce, and even both sides secretly went to mine the gold mines, but every time someone went in, there would always be a collapse accident, and many people died, and both sides thought that the other party was the ghost, so the four major families formed an alliance in pairs and fought for a full twenty years. ”

Everyone sighed when they heard it, and their hearts were even heavier, the contradictions in the past 20 years are not only economic interests, but also a bunch of human lives, if you want to resolve them in just a few days, I am afraid that it is more difficult than ascending to the sky. However, if it cannot be resolved, once the Yizhou men and horses attack on a large scale, the front line will definitely be defeated.

Everyone was silent, not knowing what to say for a while, Song Ying'er stomped her feet and cursed Queen Song for being too vicious, and actually used this kind of poisonous trick.

After being silent for a while, Mo Xiang took the lead and said: "Since General Zhu has been to the Bai family, he should have some relationship with the Bai family, I don't know if you think this son of the Bai family will do that kind of hurtful thing?"

Zhu Baolin pondered for a moment, and said solemnly: "This son of the Bai family is elegant and polite, quite talented, and will have several contacts with him at the end of the year, I feel that this person does not seem to be a ruthless person, and the son of the Wei family is not like an ordinary gentleman, he is polite and polite, and often helps the poor." ”

"What about the two sons of Zheng Wu?" Mo Xiang continued to ask.

Zhu Baolin quickly replied: "Although these two generals have not been in contact, their reputation is much better than that of their elders, so after the four princes became friends, many people thought that if the four of them could inherit the position of the head of the family, then the four major families might form a very powerful force." ”

Mo Xiang said: "Your Highness, the little woman thinks that there are too many doubts about the things back then, and this should be just a simple matter, but because it involves the interests of the gold mine, I am afraid that some people with a heart are more willing to complicate things." After all, the four families to mine gold mines earn more than the four four families to mine gold mines, and the best way to subdue the four families is to investigate the truth of what happened back then. ”

Shen Huan said: "Your Highness, although what the Mo military master said is reasonable, but we don't have enough time, and we have to find a way back." ”

Fang Ling thought about it seriously, and said in a deep voice: "Then this king will personally investigate this matter, the time is too tight, only Chiyan's feet are fast, and he can buy a lot of time." If the king has not come back within five days, the general of the four cities will be recruited to Qingzuka City by the Mo army division on behalf of the king, and the understanding will be emotional and reasonable, if they can cooperate with the overall situation, it is the best. Otherwise, even if they cut off their heads, they must be in charge of the soldiers and horses of the five towns!"

Seeing that Fang Ling's evil spirit was exposed, Zhu Baolin and Li Yongcheng were secretly taken aback, the King of Shicheng had such a great evil spirit, and he even had extraordinary courage, no wonder he was not even Gu Shaofeng's opponent.

Having said that, but Fang Ling also knew that the consequences of doing so were quite serious, after all, the four great wang clans were not ordinary forces, although they might be able to command the soldiers and horses of the four towns for a while, but it was very unfavorable for long-term combat, the best way was still to investigate the truth about the mine twenty years ago, even if this was really not a good time to solve the mystery.

Next, Fang Ling asked Zhu Baolin some related questions, and then made a plan for the way back, so as to ensure that even if he was not present, his subordinates would be able to handle things properly.

Then, Fang Ling rode the red flame and quickly left the city and headed for Dingzhou City.

As the best of the red-blooded horses, Chi Yan was much faster than ordinary horses, and it only took a day and a half to reach the destination, Fang Ling didn't want to alarm Yuan Dekang, he casually found an inn to stay, and then sneaked into the Bai family's mansion, one of the four major wang clans, by night.

The Bai family is the oldest of the four major wang clans, and has lived in Dingzhou for more than 150 years for generations, which can be described as deep-rooted, but in the past 20 years, the four major wang clans have been constantly suffering from internal friction, various industries compete with each other, sometimes winning and losing, sometimes making and losing, so it is not necessarily how luxurious, but because the foundation is still there, there is still the style of the big portal, its mansion is located in the most prosperous street of Dingzhou City, the mansion covers a huge area, no smaller than the Dingzhou Mansion, several families outside the mansion are mightily guarding the big bronze gate, and the stone lion at the door shows the vicissitudes of life.

Of course, the guardian of the courtyard would not cause any obstacles to the spying on the tomb, he easily lurked in the Bai Mansion, followed the route provided by Zhu Baolin and walked along the roof of the corridor, and soon came to a deserted courtyard.

Outside the courtyard there were two housekeepers, both of whom were dozing off, their heads growing little by little like woodpeckers.

Fang Ling fell lightly from the ridge of the roof, and gently pushed open the door of the courtyard, the dark and candleless room was like a dead silence, there was no breath of life, only the faint undulating figure on the bed, which added a bit of horror to this environment.

Fang Ling strode up, and as soon as he opened the roller blind, he saw the Bai family son on the bed.

The son of the Bai family was placed on the bed like a stone sculpture, his clothes were still there, but his body had been completely petrified, showing an azure color. If someone says that it is carved, I am afraid that it is a masterpiece that can be passed down through the ages, because this stone sculpture is almost no different from a real person except that it is a stone, and the face still has a frightened expression before petrification, which makes people shudder.

Fang Ling frowned slightly, sat on the edge of the bed, reached out and pressed on him, pinched it, this body was really no different from a stone, cold and cold, and very brittle and hard, and then he entered a wisp of sun fire and walked around the Bai family's son's body.
