Chapter 1224: Complicated
But the record of this incident is really a bit scarce, in fact, it happened fourteen years ago, that is, a year after the disappearance of the Count of Gitalera that Li Huailin was looking for.
At that time, someone sold this gem in the auction house, and it was added temporarily, so because the preparation was not sufficient, the rich people did not all arrive, and the final transaction price was not high, about 150,000 gold coins, and then the rich people who heard about it immediately became interested in this exquisite gem, and expressed their willingness to buy it at a high price, and its price was once as high as close to one million gold coins, but in the end, it was the demon emperor Baizera here who shouted out the last most amazing price, that is, a city.
It's a pity that I didn't expect that the owner of the gem seemed to be very partial to this gem, even if he used the city to exchange it was also rejected by him, and then what happened was the same as what Pollitt said, the collector's whole family died, according to the testimony of the witnesses at the time, they saw a huge dragon, and according to the current situation, the investigators here also accepted the testimony of the eyewitnesses, of course, this matter will not be closed later, because the other party is a dragon, and there is no way to check the back.
The dragon family likes gemstones, of course, this is something that everyone knows, so it is a bit of a disaster for this collector, but after listening to this story, Li Huailin always felt that something was wrong, and he always felt that there was a strong conspiracy in it.
But no matter what, taking advantage of the fact that the dragons are now by his own side, Li Huailin decided to ask these dragons if they were involved in this matter. First of all, Li Huailin wants to confirm the target a little, according to his previous understanding, there are only sixteen adult dragons on the continent that still exist, of course, although Nozorda is still alive, the position was replaced by Xiaomi, so there are fifteen targets left in the investigation.
Among them, the Red Dragon Queen Remidios and her two subordinates Phaedra and Quedratos live in the Dragon Valley all year round to manage the dragon cubs. So the suspicion is also very small, and the rest is twelve.
"Oh, then you continue to investigate the previous matter, and I'll go first." After talking to Pollit, Li Huailin returned to Dragon Valley again, and appeared in front of Remidios with a "bang". Scared Remidios on this side.
"You, you...... What's your situation? Remidios here pointed at Li Huailin and said.
Li Huailin looked at the current situation, Ruimidios and Xiaomi here are still in a humanoid state, and then a whole row of charcoal-grilled dragon tail experiments are placed on the ground, it seems that this guy is now experimenting with how to make his tail more delicious.
"Hey, it's growing a little too fast." Li Huailin pointed to the large pile of tails and said.
"That is, the regeneration ability of our dragon clan ......" Remidios on this side immediately said proudly, Li Huailin quickly took out his notebook, and then pointed to the peerless gem here and asked, "Let me ask you a question first." Have you ever seen this gem? ”
"Huh? It's pretty beautiful. Remidios on this side nodded, "I haven't seen it, what's wrong?" ”
"Oh, it's okay, you go ahead and I'll ask the other dragons." Li Huailin walked out as he spoke.
"Hey, wait, let's try it first." Remidios shouted here.
"Forget it. I've got something. Li Huailin hurriedly refused.
Soon, Li Huailin asked Phaedra and Quidratos on this side again, and the answer was really not surprising, neither of them had heard of this thing. But I like it when I look at it, and it's worthy of being a dragon.
Li Huailin also knew that these three were basically not suspicious, and the rest was the point, so Li Huailin asked a little about the dragons who had arrived nearby, and the testimony of the dragon called Basalan made Li Huailin pay attention very much. Of course, the previous Wushuang information was also provided by her.
"I wanted to grab it, but I couldn't find the other party's location." Basalan here said with a little pity. "You know, this gem is so beautiful, I was hooked the first time I saw it at auction, and I couldn't take my eyes off it."
"Auction?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned, it was indeed the first time that this gem appeared at auction. But according to the previous information, this gem was temporarily auctioned, speaking of which, why can Basaland here see this gem? "You participated in the auction at the time?"
"yes." Basalan here nodded and said, "Of course it became a human being, but the auction was held in the main city of the human race, where there are many masters, and I didn't dare to show up to rob it, but I also remembered the seller and was ready to go to the door to rob it, but I lost the family." ”
"No, how did you know that the auction was going to auction this gem, by chance?" Li Huailin asked.
"Well......" Speaking of this, Basaran suddenly lowered his head, thought for a moment, and then suddenly looked up and said, "I remember, someone sued me." ”
"Who?" Li Huailin immediately asked.
"Ah, what is this......" Basalan here looked like he couldn't remember.
"Think about it, do you want the other party to know the identity of your dragon clan, if you know, it must not be an ordinary relationship, otherwise how would you believe other people's words." Li Huailin helped recall.
"Oh?" Basalan here seemed to remember something, "Wait, I remember." ”
"Remember?" Li Huailin immediately asked.
"I remembered what it was." Basalan said, "This was more than ten years ago, when I was in the realm of the Terran Empire, and at night, I was resting ......"
"Hey, let's get to the point." Li Huailin said, "You don't have to start from the beginning. ”
"Aren't I talking and reminiscing, and you still don't want me to say it." Basalan said here.
"Okay, okay, you're resting, and then?" Li Huailin asked.
"I was resting until midnight, and suddenly I heard the sound of a fight, and it woke me up. But I didn't care about it at the time, and continued to sleep by myself, but the fight was getting closer and closer. I couldn't help it, so I looked at it, and I saw that there were about four or five people chasing a human child, well, a human child about fifteen or sixteen years old. Basalan here said as he recalled.
"Chase?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned, "And then?" ”
"Because it's annoying, I just spray them all to death." "But to my surprise, the kid didn't die when he got a shot of my dragon's breath, but was just injured. ”
"Oh?" Li Huailin was stunned for a moment, this adult dragon's dragon breath is not something that ordinary people can take, it seems that this child is very powerful.
"Of course, I didn't plan to let the child go, I directly planned to kill him, but at that time, the child suddenly said a word to me, he said thank you for saving it, and then he was ready to tell me a great news, it was about gems, there was a very precious gem, he knew where to put it." Basalan said, "Of course that's a good thing, my favorite is the gem, think about a child's life is not important, if only I could really see the gem, so I took the child back to the city, of course I transformed into a human into the city, and then the child took me to the auction site, of course, I saw the peerless gem later." ”
"And what about the kid?" Li Huailin asked.
"I don't know, when I saw this peerless gem, my attention was on it, and when I came back to my senses, the child didn't know where to go, and I didn't look for it after that, anyway, it's just a child, and the gem is the most important, but in the end I didn't find it." Basalan here looked a little disappointed as he spoke.
"I see." Li Huailin nodded, "That means that in order to protect himself, that kid tricked you into being a bodyguard and escorted him all the way back to the city, understand...... Maybe I saw you before and took the initiative to lead the pursuers in your direction, well......"
"Huh?" Basalan here was slightly stunned, as if he hadn't figured out that he was being used.
"Don't care, don't care." Li Huailin waved his hand, "I know the matter, what's the name of that kid?" ”
"Huh? This one...... I don't think I asked. Basalan here thought for a while and said, "It seems to have asked?" I don't remember, I guess I asked. ”
"And then don't you remember?" Li Huailin said.
"Yes, I can't remember anything, why don't you name me and I'll see if I have any impression?" Basalan asked.
"Where am I going to go here?" Li Huailin raised his forehead, "Doesn't this kid have any characteristics?" ”
"Features, what are the characteristics, I can't remember them at all." Basalan said.
"I'm ......" Li Huailin held his forehead.
"Oh, speaking of which, this kid's vindictive spirit is quite beautiful." Basalan here suddenly said, "The red vindictiveness is quite obvious at night, especially beautiful." ”
"Huh?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned, "Wait, you said red vindictiveness." ”
"yes." Basalan here nodded, "I remember this very well." ”
"Anthony?" Li Huailin said tentatively.
"Huh?" Basalan here was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly seemed to remember something, "Yes, yes, yes, this name has an impression, it seems to be called this name, wow, you are too powerful, I let you say a few names casually, you can be hit by the first name, this is so powerful, how did you do it?" ”
"Oops, it seems to be getting more and more involved." didn't care about Basalan here, Li Huailin said with a little headache. (To be continued......) R1292
