......

After a short silence, Xiao Che continued: "I heard that the Ye family almost scattered all their wealth in order to recruit cultivators?"

"Hmm. Ye Sheng nodded.

"Feiyun Pavilion is now covering the sky with one hand, and after capturing the demon bird, how can the Ye family gain a foothold in the Dao City?" Xiao Che frowned and asked.

Ye Sheng smiled bitterly and said: "The Ye family has declined now, and there is not much that can be done for the people in this Dao City, after solving the problem of demon birds, the Ye family may have to be removed from the Dao City." ”

"What do you mean?" Xiao Che asked.

"Brother Xiao. Ye Pengpeng's eyes were hazy, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, he bit his red lip hard, and bowed his head and said: "What my brother means is that after we have scattered all our wealth and dealt with the demon birds, my father will take us out of Dao City and find another hidden place." ”

"Understood. ”

Xiao Che nodded contemplatively, turned his gaze to Ye Sheng, and continued, "But when you leave, how can the people of Dao City have a good life under the suppression of Feiyun Pavilion?"

"Never. Ye Sheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, looked at Xiao Che with gloomy eyes, and said, "But what the Ye family can do now is too limited." ”

Xiao Che understands this helplessness very well.

"Just leave, willingly?" Xiao Che said suddenly.

"Of course not. Ye Sheng shook his head.

Hearing the answer he wanted to hear, Xiao Che continued, "Recently, I asked how many people were injured by the demon birds outside the city?"

"Many, much more. ”

"Is there someone from Feiyun Pavilion?"

Hearing this, Ye Sheng's eyes flashed, and he shook his head with a little hesitation: "It doesn't seem to be." Immediately, he seemed to have a firm idea in his heart, and said heavily: "No, it is indeed not." ”

Xiao Che said: "So, Feiyun Pavilion wants to force the Ye family away in this way, so that they can become the real overlord of Dao City. ”

"Are you saying that the Demon Bird was deliberately released by Feiyun Pavilion?" Ye Sheng exclaimed.

"It's just speculation. Xiao Che said: "But I think that even if it is not completely done by them, at least there is an inextricable relationship." ”

His gaze suddenly became extremely fierce, and he continued, "So, Ye Sheng, you must not leave. ”

......

Yuzhuang.

Responsible for the production of chalcedony.

"Old madman, how is the production this year?" said an elderly man in a black robe in the mine, patting a person's shoulder that was shaking because he was busy, and smiled.

The person who spoke was the owner of Yuzhuang, Yang Ban.

"Huh?" the old madman turned his gaze to see the face of the visitor, and said with a smile: "Oh, it turned out to be the owner of the village." ”

Xuan swept his gaze to a few people not far away, and said, "You guys do it well, don't be lazy." ”

As he spoke, he walked towards Yang Ban

The other side walked.

"Back to the owner, the production is not bad, an increase of 30% compared with last year. The old madman wiped his sweat, smiled, revealed a mouthful of yellowed teeth, which were still full of smoke stains, and said: "In this way, when the Ye family and Feiyun Pavilion's martial arts exercises are over, our Yuzhuang may still have some surplus." ”

"That's good. Yang Ban smiled.

"Is there anything else the owner has to do?"

"No, you're busy. Yang Ban smiled.

"Oh, good. The old madman said.

At this time, the person who suddenly heard the jade crystal mining lost his voice and said, "What's going on?!

"What's the matter?" said the old madman, frowning, striding forward, and soon appeared beside the man.

"The color of the jade crystal in this area seems to be a little wrong, and the temperature of the crystal pith is also hot, which is completely different from the cold crystal pith we mined in previous years. "That's human.

Hearing this, the old madman's cloudy eyes were slightly stunned, and he immediately stretched out his calloused palm, trying to touch the bright red jade crystal chalcedony, but soon he touched it, because it was indeed hot, and even the thick calluses on his fingertips were glowing with a hint of burnt black.

"This jade crystal vein is excavated from the top of the cold mountain, obviously the cold is pressing, but why is it hot here?" said the old madman in disbelief.

As he spoke, he looked around carefully, pondered for a long time, and then his eyes suddenly flashed, and his pupils glowed with a dazzling fiery color, and he lost his voice: "It must be because there is actually a hot lava under this cold mountain." ”

"If there is molten slurry, how can a cold mountain become a cold mountain?"

"Unless there's a colder side of the mine deeper down in the mine. The people around him couldn't help frowning deeply, and muttered in confusion.

“......”

"Alright, shut up. ”

The old madman stopped, raised his head, and carefully stared at the bright red jade crystal in front of him with a deep expression, and then mined a few more pieces, the crystal blocks were very rough, but they were as transparent as crystals, and they did not hide their original luster because of their blood-like color.

Carefully feeling the richness of the Heavenly Yuan Earth Qi contained in it, the old madman's eyes flashed, and he exclaimed: "This red jade crystal chalcedony obviously contains a richer amount of Heavenly Yuan Earth Qi, compared to the ordinary jade crystal chalcedony, even, more than ten times. ”

Yang Ban's eyes lit up, it was the light of greed.

"Really?!" everyone's eyes widened, and the look of shock surged out, and they all took a hard breath and lost their voices.

"You can't be wrong. The old madman nodded, and then he thought about it carefully and said, "Since this jade crystal piping is as red as blood, let's name it blood crystal pith." ”

After speaking, he turned to Yang Ban: "Owner, what do you think?"

Yang Ban said: "

It doesn't matter the name. ”

When the words fell, a greedy color appeared in his gaze, and then he shouted: "It's just that the matter of the blood crystal essence must not leak out, otherwise, I will kill it." ”

"Owner. The old madman exclaimed.

"Huh?"

"Are you trying to keep the crystal essence for yourself?" the old madman's eyes widened, and he said in a trembling voice, "Can Feiyun Pavilion and the Ye family agree?"

"As I said, this matter must not be leaked. Yang Ban said coldly: "In this way, who will know about the blood crystal marrow? Moreover, with the blood crystal marrow, the strength of my Yuzhuang is bound to rise as a whole, and when the time comes, it may not be impossible to compete with Feiyun Pavilion." ”

"I hope the owner thinks twice. The old madman lowered his head in a heavy voice, his face was full of pain, and he hoped that Yang Ban could restrain himself from the precipice.

"Okay, don't say it, this matter is settled!" Yang Ban licked his dry lips, and Sen Han smiled and said: "My Yuzhuang has been suppressed by Feiyun Pavilion for many years, not to mention selling labor, and even not getting the same remuneration at all, since now that I have this blood crystal marrow, how can I hand it over so easily?"

"But ......"

The corners of the old madman's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he tightly pinched the blood crystal essence that had become room temperature in his hand, as if he was pinching the lifeblood of the entire Yuzhuang.

"I said don't say it again!" Yang Ban shouted.

The old madman's face changed abruptly, and he didn't dare to continue to say more, so he had to let out a long sigh of turbidity, and every muscle in his body couldn't help but tighten slightly, and his heart was worried about the future safety of Yuzhuang, although Yuzhuang was suppressed and bitter and tired, but at least, everyone was alive and well.

The old madman doesn't want to change that.

Yang Ban's eyes were full of coldness, and his sharp eyes like knives slowly swept over the faces of everyone around him, and said half-threateningly and half-reasonably: "You are all from my Yuzhuang, and each of you is very clear in your hearts about the oppression of Feiyun Pavilion in recent years, so, which is more important?"

"Never betray Yuzhuang!"

"Never ......"

“......”

Listening to everyone's passionate voices, Yang Ban smiled with satisfaction, and then glanced at the old madman with a cold gaze, and said in a deep voice: "Old madman, from today onwards, the blood crystal essence in this area will be fully responsible for you, and after it is produced, it will be secretly sent to the secret treasury of Yuzhuang." ”

"Yes. The old madman nodded helplessly.

"Hmph. Yang Ban snorted coldly, the sharpness in his eyes that had been silent for several years, and for a while, he reverted to his old state, and with the blood crystal marrow, he believed that in just a few years, the Yuzhuang he led would inevitably overpower the Ye family and Feiyun Pavilion and become the overlord in Dao City.

Turning around, Yang Ban's figure quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

At this time, the old madman's legs were weak, and his body was as tall as a pine

When he landed, he was crumbling, and the whole person seemed to age a little in an instant.

"Crazy grandpa. ”

Suddenly, a voice came from behind him, and soon a familiar face appeared under the hazy and cloudy eyes of the old madman.

Wind Strike.

"It's you. The old madman smiled bitterly.

"Lord Yang Zhuang is also for the good of Yuzhuang, why does the crazy grandfather have to be so careless?" said Feng Mian.

"No!" the old madman sighed and said, "If he does this, sooner or later he will push Yuzhuang into the abyss of death." ”

His gaze was fixed on Feng Mian, and then he said, "Feng Mian, do you know why?"

"Why?" said the wind reluctantly.

"For there is no impermeable wall under the sky, and if no one knows it, he must not do it. The old madman sighed.

"Crazy grandpa is right. ”

Feng Mian smiled, and a sly light flashed in his eyes.

......

Yuzhuang secret room.

Yang Ban stared blankly at the bright red light in front of him, feeling the rich Tianyuan Earth Qi that enveloped his body, and then, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but appear ecstatic, this blood crystal pith was really more than ten times stronger than ordinary jade crystal pice.

"This blood crystal marrow...... It's extraordinary!"

Yang Ban's body trembled with excitement, and his voice became a little trembling, and he continued: "It is really a supreme gift from heaven, Yuzhuang, sooner or later it is bound to be the true master of Dao City, and the people of Feiyun Pavilion and the Ye family are just clowns." ”

Yang Ban smiled very hideously and presumptuously.

"Owner!" a voice came from outside the secret room.

"What's the matter?" Yang said.

"The people from Feiyun Pavilion are here?"

"Feiyun Pavilion?!" Yang Ban's eyes flashed, and then he smiled indifferently, and said lightly: "I know, you go down." ”

"Yes. ”

Turning his gaze, Yang Ban stared at the bright red light in front of him, and under his eyes, a cold color emerged, and after a short silence, he said coldly in an extremely resentful voice that also contained a hint of calmness: "Strong... Thief!"
