Chapter 46: Jin Shuchang was drunk and misunderstood, and Pei Yongsi couldn't calm his anger
After Lin Man'er and the others dealt with the mountain with a medium rating, they rushed to the mountain with a good rating overnight. The reason why he was so anxious was because when Da Mao was mining, he found that the spirit ore underground was missing. In other words, Lin Man'er's territory has already been visited. Fortunately, the loss is not large, just some spiritual ores that are easy to excavate.
However, Lin Man'er is a domineering money fan, and daring to steal his things is tantamount to pulling out the feathers of an iron rooster. To this end, he flew into the air, spread his sense, and searched for the traces of the thief. It's a pity that there is no one else except for the three of them.
Lin Man'er did not give up and continued to expand the search scope of his divine sense. This time, he did see someone else. However, these people, like him, are working on their own turf. Among them, there are surveyors, array divisions, Dan divisions, miners, and so on. Obviously, these are professional reclamation teams.
Lin Man'er was unhappy in her heart, and she spoke with her soul thoughts, and asked, "Did you steal my spirit mine?" ”
It stands to reason that Lin Man'er's questioning tone will definitely not be good. However, the shadow of the famous tree, when the people on the nearby hill recognized Lin Man'er, they all said that it had nothing to do with him.
Lin Man'er asked again, "Then why did you steal me?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a young man wearing a jade crown flew out of the mine on a nearby mountain. I only heard the young man snort coldly, and said without fear: "You occupy four peaks alone, and I will steal it if you replace me." ”
Lin Man'er recognized him, and instead of being angry, he smiled and said, "Hehe, I represent the Huai seniors." If you are not convinced, you can go to the state pastor. ”
When Pei Yongsi heard this, he flew up and scolded: "Can you still have a face?" ”
"I'm not a woman, I want to have a fart on my face." Lin Man'er said with a roll of his eyes.
"Hmph, it's because you're shameless that you'll be remembered by thieves."
"Fart, I just saw it, your house was also stolen. Is it possible, your family is shameless? ”
"It's ridiculous, we came early in the morning, if there was a thief, we would have been caught."
Lin Man'er laughed wickedly and said slowly: "There is a cave seven miles to the southeast, you can go and see for yourself!" Also, the surveyor you hired is not good, and even the excavation is in the wrong direction. After saying that, he returned to his own mountain, asked Da Mao to pause his digging, and went with him to catch the thief.
After Lin Man'er left, Pei Yongsi did not say anything, and quietly went to the southeast seven miles to check. However, he searched for a long time and could not find the so-called cave. Thinking that he had fallen for Lin Man'er, he was so angry that he pulled out the Yiling sword and slashed indiscriminately to vent his anger. Suddenly, under his slashing, he discovered the existence of the formation.
Pei Yongsi felt bad in his heart, and he was lucky enough to break the formation with a sword. Sure enough, after the formation was broken, he found the hole that was hidden. Pei Yongsi scolded damn it, and rushed into the cave with his sword. It's a pity, as Lin Man'er said, there are many mines in the cave, and the rough stones in them are swept away.
If you look closely, you will find that there are still many scratches in the tunnel. Obviously, it is a demon king like a drill beetle who digs the hole, or the god pet of the thief.
Pei Yongsi suppressed his anger and urged his divine sense to check the various mines. This look can really anger people. The surveyor they spent a lot of money on was a fame seeker, and they could only find some obvious spiritual ores.
Pei Yongsi roared and returned with his sword. When he saw the drunken surveyor, he stabbed a sword. However, although the surveyor's survey ability is a little worse, after all, he is a five-grade soul immortal, and how can Pei Yongsi deal with it.
I saw that it triggered the power of thought, and locked Pei Yongsi's Yiling sword. At this moment, Pei Yongsi's grandfather Pei Jiangwei flew out of the mine and hurriedly shouted: "Stop!" ”
Pei Yongsi said angrily: "Grandpa, this old thing is a liar, and our spiritual veins have been stolen." ”
Surveyor Jin Shuchang immediately scolded: "The erector is rude, the old man has practiced for thousands of years, and he relies on his strength to eat, how can he deceive people?" ”
Pei Jiangwei has all the expectations for this grandson, so he naturally believes what he says. It's just that Jin Shuchang is also very famous in Jingqu County, so he won't destroy his reputation for the sake of thousands of green mangs, right?
At that moment, he first looked at Jin Shuchang and arched his hand: "Brother Jin is angry, maybe there is a misunderstanding." After speaking, he looked at Pei Yongsi again, "Si'er, don't worry, take your time." ”
Pei Yongsi took back the Yiling sword, pointed to the southeast and said, "Grandpa, you can see it as soon as I see it." ”
After everyone in the Pei family rushed to the stolen cave with Pei Yongsi, they all looked solemn. After all, judging from the scale of the site to the few pieces of rough stone that were left behind, this is the main storage place of the spirit ore. And, most crucially, the time of the theft should be the same day as the time they opened the mine.
In other words, when Jin Shuchang was surveying the spirit mine, the other party was already digging. In this way, there are two situations: first, Jin Shuchang colluded with the thieves inside and outside, one was responsible for dragging the Pei family, and the other was responsible for secret excavation; Second, Jin Shuchang is an idiot who sells his reputation and reputation.
After Pei Jiangwei looked at it carefully, he stared at Jin Shuchang with an extremely gloomy face, and said word by word: "Jin Shuchang, explain!" At the same time, the masters of the Pei family immediately blocked Jin Shuchang's retreat to prevent him from escaping.
Jin Shuchang was completely distracted by this scene, and hurriedly entered the various mines to check in person. The master of the Pei family was afraid that he would play tricks and wanted to follow, but Pei Jiangwei stretched out his hand to stop him: "Let him take a closer look." ”
Not long after, Jin Shuchang walked out with a piece of rough stone and argued: "Brother Pei, this really doesn't blame the old man!" ”
"Oh, don't blame you? Is that my fault? ”
Jin Shuchang held up the original stone and explained: "Brother Pei, please see, the original stone here is wrapped with a layer of stone armor, and this layer of stone armor is quite strange, it can actually interfere with the divine sense. ”
Pei Jiangwei urged his divine sense to check, and it was indeed as Jin Shuchang said. However, this alone is not enough to prove his innocence. At that moment, he asked, "Don't you have soul pupils?" Even if the stone armor can interfere with the divine sense, it won't make your soul pupil invalid, right? ”
Jin Shuchang was ashamed in his heart, which was indeed related to his drunkenness. Otherwise, there won't be no signs left undetected. However, this drunken misadventure cannot be admitted.
So, he shirked and said, "Brother Pei! A piece of rough stone is naturally not enough, but with thousands of rough stones and the cover of the mountain, the old man can't help it! ”
When Pei Jiangwei heard this, he angrily reprimanded: "You are a famous surveyor, even you can't, so how was the spirit mine discovered here?" ”
"It's... This... This old man doesn't know! It's not a secret, the old man has practiced for thousands of years, although he doesn't say how much he has accomplished, but he is also a sixth-level soul pupil! If even the old man can't survey it, then the others are even more so. After a pause, he suddenly exclaimed, "Could it be that the other party is already a seventh-level soul pupil?" ”
Pei Jiangwei thought left and right, looked at Pei Yongsi, and asked, "Si'er, how did you find out that it was stolen here?" ”
Pei Yongsi replied truthfully: "Grandpa, it was Lin Man'er who told me. At the time, I didn't believe it, so I came to check it out for myself. When I arrived, the entrance to the cave here was blocked by the formation, and I broke through the formation with a sword, only to find that the spirit ore inside had been stolen. ”
Jin Shuchang finally grabbed a life-saving straw, and hurriedly shirked it: "Brother Pei, that Lin Man'er is our genius in Meizhou!" The old man can't see it, but it doesn't mean he can't see it! ”
Pei Jiangwei said coldly: "So, it's my Pei family who blames Brother Jin?" ”
Jin Shuchang is not a fool, and hurriedly replied: "Brother Pei is serious, the old man is also derelict in his duties, and we will write off the follow-up remuneration." Moreover, the old man has just seen it, and in terms of the spiritual ore reserves here, the rating is obviously too low. Therefore, Brother Pei is not a loss. Even, if you continue to excavate, it will be more than the old man originally thought. ”
However, Pei Yongsi was annoyed and said: "It's nonsense, things are stolen to catch thieves, but you, the old thing, let us continue to dig." In my opinion, it was you who colluded with thieves to steal my Pei family's spiritual mine. ”
Pei Jiangwei felt that it was very possible, so he sacrificed the magic weapon at the moment, looked at Jin Shuchang and said, "Brother Jin, before the matter is clarified, Brother Lao Jin will go in and rest for a few days." ”
Jin Shuchang swept left and right, and there was only one way to retreat, and he was blocked by Pei Jiangwei himself. Although he was a fifth-grade soul immortal, he had lost the chance to escape. For today's plan, he will either be arrested, or Pei Yongsi will be captured to blackmail Pei Jiangwei. However, he had a move with Pei Yongsi before, and he felt that it was difficult to capture it with one blow.
Thinking of this, Jin Shuchang sighed and chose to be arrested. Fortunately, he didn't take the risk to capture Pei Yongsi, otherwise he would have died. Just imagine, Pei Yongsi is the hope of the Pei family in the future, how could Pei Jiangwei ignore his safety. The reason why there is a gap is that I want to give Jin Shuchang a try.
Now, the results of the temptation are in. Pei Jiangwei put away the magic weapon, brushed his beard and said with a smile: "The old man believes in Brother Jin's personality, and he will never collude with thieves and damage his reputation." ”
Jin Shuchang was stunned for a moment, and then bowed his hand and said: "Thanks to Brother Pei's trust, the old man is willing to go together to arrest the thief to prove his innocence." ”
"Okay, as long as the stolen spirit ore is recovered, the old man is willing to share it with Brother Jin."
Jin Shuchang was overjoyed and proposed: "Thieves are cunning, and they are all habitual offenders at first glance. Let's follow that Lin Man'er, thinking that he will find a way to find the thief. ”
Pei Yongsi was unhappy in her heart, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, they are all thieves, so they can naturally be found." ”
Pei Jiangwei coughed and admonished: "Si'er, you are brothers and sisters in the same sect, and you have fought to the death side by side. This friendship should be cherished, how can you be jealous for the sake of a mere reputation? ”
"Grandpa, one yard is one yard, you don't care about me and that bald man."
Pei Jiangwei seems to understand where his grandson's heart is. Come to think of it, it must be because of the final reward of the hundred-year-old disciple Dabi - the stinging sword. Originally, without Lin Man'er, with Pei Yongsi's swordsmanship talent, he was basically able to catch it.
However, there is Lin Man'er as a strong competitor. In this way, there is basically no hope. Pei Yongsi also knew this in his heart, but he just didn't accept it. There's no way, sword cultivation, I've always been in love with famous swords.
Pei Jiangwei sighed and comforted: "Si'er, there is more than one famous sword in the world. ”
"But there are many masters of famous swords, if you miss this time, you don't know what year and month you will have to wait for the next time."
When Pei Jiangwei heard this, his heart was touched. I wanted to say something, but I took it back when it came to my mouth. At that moment, call everyone and go to catch the thief.
