Chapter 112: Magical Crystal

The treasure vault of the Mason family is in the underground of the castle, it is a huge basement, it seems that this basement was built when the castle was built, its structure is very ingenious, there are many mechanisms inside, Long Dan under the leadership of the old Mason, opened the iron doors one by one, and entered the secret room. I saw that the secret room was full of jewels and jade, piles of gold coins, shining with a dark yellow light. Long Dan was in the middle of the jewels, as if he had come to the room of Ali Baba and the forty thieves. I can't help but sigh, after all, it is a big family that has gone through hundreds of years, and its heritage is incalculable.

Old Mason introduced Long Dan one by one in front of him, and said: "My ancestor was a thief who roamed the sea hundreds of years ago, and later washed his hands in the golden basin and transferred to the mainland to do business. To tell you the truth, although these things belong to our family now, they are all things that have come from the wrong way in history." As he spoke, he pointed to a pile of cultural relics and said: "This is the 19th century, the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance is looted things, many of which are objects from the Old Summer Palace. If necessary, the master can pick out some things from the Old Summer Palace and count them as the ones I gave to the master." Long Dan heard this and said: "Maybe I really want to pick some and take them back to donate to the country, but don't worry, I will give you financial compensation", Lao Mason saw Long Dan mention compensation, so he said: "What money is not money, these are also looted from you by the ancestors, and if you take it back, it will be regarded as returning it to the original owner, even if the master takes this treasure house back, I am not distressed." Long Dan said: "I don't have time now, I'll pick out some objects from the Old Summer Palace when I have the chance."

Long Dan looked at these hidden treasures, mostly gold and silverware, all dynasties, all countries, and Chinese porcelain, which is also everywhere in this treasure house. Long Fan doesn't know how to identify cultural relics, but looking at the color, he guessed that there are probably Song porcelain and Yuan blue and white and the like, which are all priceless treasures. There is a saying in the market that "if there are thousands of families, it is better to have a piece of Song porcelain", and in this treasure house of the Mason family, it is not just a piece of porcelain, which is simply a mountain of porcelain.

Then, Old Mason took Long Dan into another treasure room. Old Mason pointed to the utensils all over the ground and said: "These are the strange treasures that my ancestors salvaged during their expeditions on the sea, and I can't name some of them, maybe they are real treasures, maybe they are just waste, and I don't know many of them anyway." I don't know what it means for my ancestors to put these things here." Long Dan followed the place where old Mason pointed and saw a large number of objects, some of which looked like face plates, some of which looked like ancient copper tripods, and some of which looked like round balls. Long Dan pulled it casually and looked at it one by one.

When Long Dan's hand touched a round ball, Long Dan's consciousness suddenly flashed, and a familiar thought came from his mind. Long Dan's mind moved, and he took the ball in his hand. The ball was half the size of a football, round and covered in dust. Long Dan blew away the floating soil on the surface, and it was a glowing crystal ball. But it doesn't look like it's made of crystal, because it's so light that it feels like nothing in your hand. If it is a real crystal, I am afraid that there are not dozens of catties but more than a dozen catties, but this crystal ball is as light as cotton.

In the middle of Long Dan's thoughts, he opened the eye of heaven to see what kind of texture was inside. But after exercising the Heavenly Eye, a strange phenomenon happened, Long Dan couldn't see the inside of the crystal ball. This has never happened before. Even if it was metal, Long Dan could already see the structure inside, let alone ordinary crystals. Long Dan held it in both hands, and then exercised the aura of heaven and earth, and even more wonderful things happened. Long Dan felt a wave of power flow out of the crystal ball, flowing directly down his palm to his mind. Moreover, with the breath of Long Dan, this force is getting bigger and bigger, and there is an irrepressible phenomenon. Long Dan was startled in his heart, stopped thinking, and this power disappeared. Long Dan hurriedly exercised his true qi again, and a force came from the crystal ball again. Long Dan hurriedly stopped thinking again, knowing that there was something in this crystal ball that was the same as the heaven and earth aura he had absorbed.

Long Dan absorbed it twice just now, and he felt that his divine consciousness was clearer, as if he had a more powerful power in his mind than before, and this power seemed to be about to erupt under Long Dan's thoughts. This surprise, Long Dan has to be extraordinary, knowing that this crystal ball-like thing is very related to himself, maybe it is something he can use.

Long Fan took the crystal ball and asked Old Mason, "Do you know the origin of this crystal ball?" Old Mason looked at the crystal ball, shook his head, and said: "I don't know what it is, but, according to the family records, this crystal ball was salvaged from the sea, and since no one can say it, it has been placed here, maybe it's just a useless glass ball." How? The master has taken a fancy to this crystal ball? Then take it, no one knows what it is anyway." Long Dan thought about it, and felt that it was better to bring it back by himself and study it, so he said to Old Mason: "I'm a little curious about this thing, I'll ask for it, if it's money, I'll give it to you", Old Mason hurriedly said: "Look at what the master said, isn't it just a broken crystal, you just want all the jewels in the house, and I won't blink my eyes." If you have your eye on this crystal ball, take it. However, I'll still build yƬ master you pick and choose, and then pick a few real treasures to take." Long Dan smiled and said, "I don't want anything else today, I just want this crystal ball." I'll pick the other things later, but I'll tell you, those things in the Old Summer Palace, I have booked them first, you are not allowed to sell them to others, I want them all, and we will negotiate later." After saying that, he no longer listened to Old Mason's request, and only took the crystal ball and returned to his residence.

Long Dan, who returned to his residence, couldn't wait to take out the crystal ball and looked at it, Long Dan still opened the eye of the sky to watch the crystal ball, but no matter how Long Dan worked, he still couldn't see through the surface of the crystal ball, the surface was like a hard shell, blocking Long Dan's sight, and in desperation, Long Dan exercised his own aura again, and the result was still like that, a force flowed from the crystal ball to Long Dan's hands into Long Dan's divine consciousness.

The more Long Dan absorbed, the clearer his divine consciousness became, and there was an indescribable feeling of comfort, and his whole body was warm. So Long Dan increased his strength, and a powerful air flow like the aura of heaven and earth surged into Long Dan's mind, and Long Dan continued to absorb it, and I don't know how much time passed, this power suddenly stopped. Long Fan opened his eyes and looked at the crystal ball, and then looked at it, and the structure inside the crystal ball could be seen clearly. And the crystal ball seems to be a lot heavier, like the weight of a real crystal ball.

At this time, Long Dan's divine consciousness seemed to have changed, Long Dan imagined that the crystal ball would crack, and suddenly, the crystal ball really cracked. Long Dan was taken aback by this phenomenon: could it be that he used the power of his mind to crack the crystal ball? So Long Dan picked up a mirror beside him again, imagining that the mirror was split from the middle, and as a result, the mirror really cracked from the middle. Long Dan experimented with the iron tools around him again, although it was slower, but it was still able to break the metal. This time, Long Dan was pleasantly surprised. I actually have such a powerful power of mind.

After calming down, Long Dan reflected on the whole process. This function is caused by this crystal ball, then this crystal ball is full of heaven and earth aura, and after being absorbed by yourself, you will become the power of mind.

So, Long Dan went to old Mason and asked, "Old Mason, how many of these crystal balls do you have in your treasure house?" Old Mason said: "There is such a treasure house in our Mason family, this is recorded, what?" Does the master still want it? Long Dan said: "I'm really curious about this crystal ball, and I really want it if there's any." Mason Sr. said: "Although there is only one of our Mason family, there is another in the Morton family", "The Morton family? Long Dan asked. Old Mason said: "According to family records, the ancestors of the Mason family and the ancestors of the Morton family were pirates, and they often collaborated to do some things at sea, and all the objects they got were one for two, and it is recorded that such a crystal ball was also obtained at that time, so it was separated. However, after hundreds of years, I don't know that there is no other crystal ball in the Morton family."

Long Dan said, "Are you familiar with the Morton family?" Old Mason said, "Yes, but the Morton family is broken." The old Morton family is on the other side of the suburbs of Dunlun City, and it was originally a big family on a par with our Mason family, but at the beginning of this century, because the family did not have a suitable heir, there were many sons of losers, and until now, only the old drunkard of Old Morton remains." Seeing that there was a glimmer of hope, Long Dan said: "Tomorrow you take me to meet that old Morton and see if you can find out a little news", and Old Mason said: "No problem".

The next day, the two went to the other side of the city of Dunlun, a small town called Samp, and after several inquiries, they finally found a drunken and hazy Morton in a hotel. When Morton saw someone coming, he narrowed his drunken eyes and said, "No one has come to me in this town for decades, what are you two doing when you come to me?" Old Mason said, "You drunkard, I'm Mason, don't you recognize me?" ā€ć€‚ Morton's mouth was full of wine, and he looked at Old Mason's face for a long time, and said, "It turned out to be Old Mason, you don't enjoy the blessings in your own castle, what are you doing here with me?" ā€ć€‚

Old Mason didn't bother to bother with him, so he said: "This is Mr. Long Danlong from Huaxia, who is here to collect antiquities, I heard that your Morton family has a lot of treasures, and I want to buy a few, I don't know what Mr. Morton thinks?" When Morton heard that he had come to buy a treasure, he grinned and said, "The treasures of the Morton family? Now it's all that remains with me the castle that everyone wants, do you want a castle, or do you want me? Old Mason said angrily when he heard this: "What's the use of you, your castle is about to collapse, and I guess no one wants it, I'm asking you, do you still have any treasures in your house, let Mr. Long buy it?" ā€ć€‚
