Volume 2 Chapter 367 Secrets, Tracing the Origin

Hearing Bai Che's answer, Lan Que's expression moved slightly, and he said, "Bai Gongzi, this 'third vein' is a bit unusual. ”

"Oh?" Bai Che looked at Lan Que and said, "How is it unusual?" ”

"Originally, it was a big secret that the 'Third Ore Vein' belonged to 'Loulan City', and only a few of our big families and people from the City Lord's Mansion knew about it." Lan Que opened his mouth to explain: "However, since Bai Gongzi wants to know, Lan will tell Bai Gongzi here." ”

At the same time, the door to the inner room opened, and the maid who had knocked over the teacup came again to deliver tea.

"Why don't you get out of here? Didn't you see Ben Gongzi chatting with distinguished guests? After the maid put the tea away, Lan Que said coldly: "I don't have any eyesight." ”

Hearing this, the maid's body trembled slightly, glanced at Bai Che, and retreated.

Bai Che asked with some curiosity: "Second Master Lan, why do you have such a bad attitude towards this maid?" ”

Lan Que smiled and said, "The few maids outside the door were all sent by Lan Feng, the current head of the Lan family, to monitor Lan. ”

"Oh?" Bai Che's expression moved slightly, and he said, "Shouldn't it be inherited by the eldest son?" ”

Lan Que shook his head and said with a smile: "The old man dotes on Lan Feng, and has always let Lan Feng follow him, and has learned a lot of things, with the ability of the eldest brother, some things of the Lan family really can't be done, so it is extremely reasonable for Lan Feng to be the head of the Lan family." ”

"It's just that after Lan Feng succeeded as the head of the Lan family, he was wary of the two Lan brothers everywhere, and he always wanted to get news about the two Lan brothers, but he didn't know that the two Lan brothers had no intention of being the head of the Lan family at all, otherwise Lan would not have opened a 'jade heritage', which is really ridiculous." Lan Que said with a smile.

Bai Che nodded and said, "I don't get involved in the affairs of your Lan family, just pay attention to it yourself." ”

Lan Que smiled and said, "You don't need Bai Gongzi to do it." ”

"Then ......" Bai Che's expression moved slightly, and with a movement of his hand, he condensed a transparent shield, covering himself and Lan Que in it, "This is a soundproof cover, beware that the partition wall has ears, continue to talk about the 'third vein'." ”

Lan Que nodded and spoke: "The 'third vein' was discovered nearly twenty years ago, but according to the outstanding contribution made by the Yu family to the discovery of this vein at that time, according to the regulations, the original city lord's mansion, the Loulan family, divided it to the Yu family. ”

"Originally, after the Jade family obtained the 'Third Ore Vein', the Jade Family should have prospered and grown, but then I don't know what happened, and the Jade Family returned the ownership of the 'Third Ore Vein' to the City Lord's Mansion.

"The City Lord's Mansion once again got the 'Third Vein', a vein of immeasurable value, and was naturally overjoyed, and immediately sent people to excavate, but during this period, an accident occurred, and the workers sent by the City Lord's Mansion to dig the jade all disappeared overnight, and the City Lord's Mansion spent a lot of time to investigate the truth, but found nothing, some people thought that the excavation workers dug up the extremely valuable jade and quietly fled, but the guards at that time did not find that anyone came out of the 'Third Vein'."

After a pause, Lan Que continued: "It is naturally impossible for the City Lord's Mansion to give up the investigation, and several investigation teams have been sent to investigate the ore veins, but all of them have accidents, and none of the previous investigation teams have come out, and they have all disappeared, until the last team, this team is the elite of the City Lord's Mansion at that time, so one of them escaped. ”

According to witnesses, when he escaped, he was covered in blood, his eyes were gouged out, and he seemed to have been subjected to a most brutal torture. His spirit was also on the verge of a breakdown, and he kept saying words like 'demon' and 'ghost' in his mouth, and he died the day after he came out. ”

"After this incident, the city lord at that time was greatly shocked, and immediately ordered someone to block the 'third ore vein', which was listed as a forbidden area for 'Loulan City', and no one was allowed to enter or leave." Lan Que opened his mouth and said, "And because the Yu family didn't explain the reason why they returned the 'third vein' to the City Lord's Mansion at that time, the city lord at that time decided that the Yu family deliberately harmed the City Lord's Mansion, so there was a series of actions against the Yu family later." ”

Hearing this, Bai Che was slightly stunned, if it was really as Lan Que said, this jade family's actions were indeed a little unkind.

Looking at Bai Che's expression, Lan Que smiled and said: "Bai Gongzi, this is just a unilateral statement of the City Lord's Mansion at that time, its authenticity should be doubtful, and there is also a saying among the people that the Yu family informed the City Lord's Mansion at that time about some unusual things about the 'Third Ore Vein', but the City Lord's Mansion at that time did not accept it. ”

Bai Che shook his head and said, "I don't need to explain, what happened between them has nothing to do with me, I just want to know more about the 'Third Vein'." ”

Lan Que nodded, but secretly thought in his heart that the emotions of the immortals towards the mortal world were really indifferent, and life and death were all in one thought. Today, he is willing to enjoy his face and drink a cup of tea, which can be regarded as giving himself a great face, and he must not anger him.

At this point, Lan Que smiled and said, "What Bai Gongzi said is true. ”

After taking a sip of tea, Lan Que continued: "Although the 'Third Vein' is listed as a forbidden area, there will still be ignorant and fearless people who quietly avoid the guards and enter the 'Third Vein', but no one has come back, until Wang Qilin, the owner of the 'Hongyun Gambling Stone Workshop' more than ten years ago, he was originally just a trouble-making gangster in 'Loulan City', but one day, he took out a large sum of money to open a gambling stone workshop, and the rough stones out of the gambling stone workshop are of good quality. ”

"So, you suspect that his rough stone was brought out of the 'Third Vein'?" Bai Che asked.

"Not a doubt, but a certainty." Lan Que opened his mouth and said, "And even if it doesn't come from the depths of the 'Third Vein', it is also a stone on the periphery of the 'Third Vein'. ”

"However, just a few years ago, Wang Qilin also disappeared, and the last direction he went to was the 'third vein'." Lan Que said.

"Hmm." Bai Che nodded and said, "I already know this. ”

Lan Que glanced at Bai Che and said, "If Bai Gongzi wants to go to the 'Third Vein', he should make some preparations. ”

"What are you going to do?" Bai Che looked at Lan Que and said lightly.

"With the disappearance of Wang Qilin a few years ago, the City Lord's Mansion strengthened the vigilance of the 'Third Ore Vein', and there were a large number of sergeants guarding outside the 'Third Ore Vein', so if Bai Gongzi wanted to enter the 'Third Ore Vein', he should first get the 'Access Certificate'."

"Credentials again?" Hearing this, Bai Che's eyes moved slightly, and he almost couldn't enter "Loulan City" because he didn't have a "xx certificate", so Bai Che felt troubled about the certificate, so he didn't have a good feeling.

"Yes." Lan Que nodded and said, "Judging from the relationship between Bai Gongzi and the City Lord's Mansion, it is not a problem to get the 'entry and exit certificate' of the 'Third Ore Vein'. ”

"Don't bother." Bai Che said indifferently, "It's not that I'm conceited, if I go in, they won't find out at all." ”

Hearing this, Lan Que suddenly remembered Bai Che's true identity, yes, the person in front of him is an immortal, what kind of credentials do you need to enter and exit a mineral vein? Isn't this self-inflicted?

"Bai Gongzi is still in high spirits, which makes Lan envious." Lan Que smiled.

Bai Che didn't answer Lan Quan's words, just thought about it, and said after a while: "Second Master Lan, if I didn't guess wrong, you should have the means to inspect the original stone." ”

Hearing this, Lan Que was slightly stunned, this was his biggest secret, only his own brother Lan Wei knew, but Bai Che in front of him was a high-ranking immortal for him, and it was reasonable to see through himself.

"In front of Bai Gongzi, this is just some small trick." Lan Que smiled and said, in front of the immortals, it is better to choose to conceal it than to admit it generously.

"Second son Lan is too modest." Bai Che shook his head and said, "I'm a little interested in Lan Ergongzi's method of inspecting the original stone, I wonder if you can let me take a look?" ”

"Didn't Bai Gongzi win in the gambling stone with Lan ten years ago? I think Bai Gongzi's means of inspecting the original stone are more clever. Lan Que looked at Bai Che and said with a little hesitation.

"I'm ashamed." Bai Che shook his head with a smile and said, "Ten years ago, I did use some means to gamble on the stone with Lan Ergongzi, but this is no longer in the category of gambling stones in the mortal world, plus that original stone is indeed a little different, I felt the existence of the items in it with spiritual power, so I ......"

Speaking of this, Bai Che did not continue, Lan Que was slightly stunned, and said with a smile after a moment: "I see, Lan is not unjust when a mortal person loses to Bai Gongzi." ”

After a pause, Lan Que took out a worn-out book from his arms, handed it to Bai Che, and said: "This book was accidentally obtained by Lan in the 'Loulan Chamber of Commerce', and all of Lan's knowledge about the rough stone was learned in this book. ”

Bai Che took the book, the title of the book was "Tracing the Origin", and the method of inspecting the rough stone that Lan Que learned was called "Tracing the Origin", which means tracing the source.

Bai Che flipped it at will, and his divine sense rubbed the content, and before he could digest it, Bai Che felt that this "traceability" was much more effective, reliable, and clever than the "Taiyan Continent" learned to use "qi" to judge whether there were treasures in the original stone.

In particular, one of the theories is that the "breath" of the rough stone is to treat all the rough stones as living individuals, and if there is life, they will breathe.

Being able to breathe means that there must be something in the rough stone, and as for what it is, it needs to be judged through experience.

It is also very simple to perceive whether the rough stone is breathing, as long as you imagine yourself in an empty and deep world, with all kinds of rough stones floating around you, and then, you can seriously feel the breath of the original stone, and choose the original stone that can breathe, and you will succeed for the most part.

However, this was still too abstract for Bai Che, but his intuition told him that this "traceability" was extremely useful.

"Since Bai Gongzi wants to see it again, why don't you go to the gambling stone shop with Lan?" Lan Que said.

Bai Che nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

Then he returned the "Tracing Technique" to Lan Que, and said: "Second Master Lan, I have memorized the content of the book, and I will take a good look at it then, this book is extremely important to you, you can take it back." ”

Lan Que nodded, he was not surprised that Bai Che remembered the contents of the book in an instant, and there was only a problem if he couldn't remember it.

"This white cat is so beautiful, like a little tiger." Lan Que looked at Sanbai on Bai Che's shoulder and smiled.

Bai Che put on the white wolf mask and said, "Let's go." ”

......

Bai Che and Lan Que walked out of the inner room, followed by two maids, who came to monitor Lan Que at a glance.

However, Lan Que seemed to be accustomed to it and didn't take it to heart at all.

Walking to the lobby, there are still sparse customers, carefully selecting and watching jade and jade.

Seeing Lan Que walking out, and seeing Bai Che beside him, Lan Que actually talked and laughed at the young man wearing a mask next to him, all of them were surprised, where is this young man sacred? Why is Boss Lan so enthusiastic about him?

The shopkeeper of the "Jade Heritage" was also dumbfounded when he saw this, he was worried that if this young man wearing a mask said something in front of Lan Que, his career would probably be over, so he kept looking at Bai Che with fear.

In fact, Bai Che had long forgotten about this trivial matter, and just patted Lan Que on the shoulder and smiled: "Second Master Lan, the price of the things in your store is not low." ”

"Bai Gongzi smiled, the main cost is high." Lan Que said with a smile.

After a pause, Lan Que asked, "Young Master Bai, is there any jade here that can be eye-catching?" ”

"There's one thing." Bai Che said.

"Oh?" Hearing this, Lan Que smiled and said, "Which one?" ”

Bai Che pointed to the superb jade, which was rendered with a wisp of bright red in the pure white.

"Okay." Lan Que nodded and said, "Old Wu, wrap up the No. 9 jade...... Forget it, I'll go in person, Bai Gongzi, please bring a little. ”

As he spoke, Lan Que took out a simple and elegant wooden box and walked towards the superb jade.
