Chapter 1: Gossip

In Yifang City, there is a tea shop.

A young monk had been sitting here all day, and he had brewed a pot of rotten tea without any taste.

Unlike wine shops and restaurants, there is no distinction between idle and busy times, and the flow of customers here is always from the beginning of the sun to the dead of night.

Tea is not drunk for tea, just as drinking is not just for wine.

The personnel in Yifang City are complex, and the people who come to the teahouse are even more diverse. Some are three or five confidants and friends borrowing the land to chat, some are in other places to meet old acquaintances with tea, of course, more are some tooth merchants who do not have fixed stalls, taking advantage of the tea shop such a fairly elegant environment, talk about stones and money.

It is not uncommon for young monks to drink sullen tea alone. For a monk, it is definitely an elegant thing to spend a pot of rotten tea money and learn about the local customs and customs by listening to the roots of the wall.

Of course, if you accidentally hear some gossip or something, it should be considered a windfall! No one wants to admit that they are just gossiping about it.

Since gossip is mentioned, I have to say that the biggest gossip in the Western Wilderness recently - the Hidden Sword Gate and the Duobao Sect Fire Merge!

It is difficult for outsiders to understand the details of the matter, and it has a nose and eyes when it is transmitted, but the listener just smiles, and no one will take it to heart. However, if there is a suitable opportunity, it will not prevent the listener from adding oil and vinegar to the story for a second transmission, which is just fun after all.

Someone is here to have fun.

It has been more than a month since the battle of Hongtou Mountain, and there are tens of thousands of versions that have been transmitted.

One of the more reliable ones is probably to say that Elder Chen of the Hidden Sword Sect coveted the beauty of Elder Tan of the Duobao Sect and wanted to do wrong.

As a result, because of the lack of foreplay, Elder Tan was annoyed, and in a fit of rage, Elder Tan summoned his male girlfriend from the sect, that is, an elder surnamed Jin.

This Elder Jin is a ruthless character, he didn't count if he came, he also directly brought tens of thousands of people from the sect, not only to tear Chen Er alive, but also to rob Chen Er's mine, so that he would lose both people and money.

This Chen Er is also a violent temper, pulling all the disciples under his hands plus countless miners to do it with Elder Jin at the door of his house.

It is said that the battle was fought in the dark, the sun and the moon were dark, and the manpower on both sides was dead, and in the end, Chen Er couldn't bear it, admitting his mistake and begging for mercy.

According to Elder Jin's meaning, it must be wiped out, but Elder Tan is a woman after all, and at this time, he remembered the original affection with Chen Er, and turned to intercede with Elder Jin on his behalf.

Elder Jin had no choice but to spare Chen Eryi's life, and only accepted the Hongtoushan Mine as a punishment, and then coerced Chen Er to make an oath that he would not be allowed to approach Elder Tan for eternity.

Afterwards, Chen Er moved to the Hidden Sword Mine, and he didn't dare to go out again. Elder Tan returned to Zhongzhou in frustration, while Elder Jin stayed in the Hongtou Mountain Mine in order to keep an eye on Chen Er at close range, and was always ready to find fault and fight again.

That's pretty much the way the rumors are, and it's basically in line with the way things are, and the impact of this is even more talked about.

After this tragedy caused by love, the most direct impact was that the miners of the Hidden Sword Mine began to resign in large numbers.

It's easy to understand.

Chen Er took the miners to help him rob the woman, but he came back alive, but most of the miners died. After destroying the Red Thoyama Mine, this cargo turned around and fled back to the Hidden Sword Mine, people

Elder Jiajin is still watching from the sidelines, and he may have to find an excuse to knock on the door at some point.

Other miners earn money for mining, but they don't earn money for helping people fight for the wind and jealousy. As for a person with a criminal record like Chen Er, he can't say that one day he will have to pull the miners into the battlefield again.

The miners all eat with their strength, and they live the same everywhere! Why risk your life to stay in the Hidden Sword Mine to help you rob women?

In a month's time, seventy percent of the miners in the Hidden Sword Mine have left, and the entire mine has fallen into a state of semi-shutdown.

The point is that Elder Chen seems to have acquiesced in this matter, after all, the evidence of his instructing the miners to help him fight is conclusive and indefensible.

Compared with the decline of the Hidden Sword Mine, after the Red Toushan Mine was in the hands of Elder Jin, the days were getting more and more prosperous.

It's also a coincidence, the resident stone master of Hongtou Mountain Mine, Master Meng, wasn't he grounded by the Stone Master Association some time ago because of a mistake!

It is said that Master Meng was given a reduced punishment for his good behavior during the lockdown period, and the ban was lifted two days before the Battle of Hongtoushan Mine broke out.

This Master Meng packed up his things and hurried to Hongtoushan to find Chen Er to report, but he walked there just in time for the Hongtoushan mine to change hands.

Elder Jin of the Duobao Sect was not polite, he detained it for Master Meng on the spot, and turned around to report to the Stone Master Association, and Master Meng honestly stationed in the Hongtoushan Mine.

According to eyewitnesses, after Chen Er heard the news, he stormed away on the spot, rolled up his sleeves and rushed to the Stone Master Association to settle accounts with the president, but in the end he died without a problem.

Hongtoushan Mine has its own stone master, and a lot of miners have been prying from the Hidden Sword Mine, and now that small life is called a nourishment.

I heard that Elder Jin had already released the wind, and the first batch of gambling stones produced by the Hongtoushan Mine would soon be on the market, and a rough stone conference would be specially organized at that time, and a batch of high-quality rough stones would be auctioned on the spot.

For this press conference, Duobaozong will also take out the treasure of Zhenshan of Hongtou Mountain, which is a super rough stone with a huge volume and extreme performance, and its valuation may even reach more than one billion.

Of course, valuations are just valuations, and no one can confirm how much this stone is worth until it is unraveled. But it doesn't matter, the answer will be revealed soon.

In order to build momentum for this press conference, on the day of the press conference, the Duobao Sect Association and the Stone Masters Association will hold a small stone master exchange meeting, and some excellent stone tasters will be invited to conduct on-site valuation of this rough stone.

The candidates to participate in this exchange meeting are designated by the Stone Master Association, and in principle, the top 10 stone masters who have won the top 10 in the previous exchange meeting will be invited to participate.

After the auction, the rough stones will be unraveled on the spot, and the value will be determined, and the participating stone tasters will rank according to the accuracy of the valuation and give rewards to each other.

It is said that the rewards of this competition are extremely attractive, and the final winner will receive a Jindan period antique provided by Duobaozong, and the rest of the rankings will also have rich prizes.

To say that Duobaozong is also generous enough, Jindan antiques do not say how much it is worth, just say its strategic value, it is enough to reflect the sincerity of Duobaozong.

There was no monk in Yifang City who was not interested in stones, and on the day when the young monk sat in the teahouse, he heard at least ten people talk about the press conference of the Hongtou Mountain Mine.

Tea is still not suitable for drinking before going to bed. As the night wore on, the young monk was left alone.

to the habit

When it was time to close, the shopkeeper didn't mean to rush people, but just took a rag and wiped it on the table next to the young monk, and gave the young monk a friendly smile from time to time.

The young monk was also a wise man, hiccuped, made a good appearance, paid for the tea, and escaped into the night.

After cautiously turning around, the young monk made sure that there was no one behind him, so he quickened his pace and flew rapidly.

Far from the bustling area of the city center, the young monk quietly leaned into a remote mansion, and without knocking on the door, he climbed over the wall and entered.

In the courtyard, there were three people sitting around an old tree, each holding a stack of cards in their hands, arguing with red faces, looking at the posture as if they were ...... Bucket @ landlord?

"I've seen three seniors. The young monk saluted respectfully.

The tallest and sturdy of the three opened his mouth: "Xiaolin, if you are so polite, we won't take you to play!"

Xiao Lin's face turned red, and he lowered his head and did not speak.

"Let him be!" the fat man waved his hand casually.

At this time, the man who was unable to see his face with a note on his face was pasted on the three, and spoke: "How's it going? No one in the city is looking for us, right?"

Xiao Lin hurriedly shook his head: "No!"

"That's good!" nodded the note-faced guy.

Xiao Lin continued: "This time I went out, I accidentally heard the news of Jindan antiques, and I don't know if it will help Master Ding's body. ”

"What?Jindan antique?" The three people who played cards were shocked, and the guy with the note on his face simply ripped off the note, revealing a cute face that attracted people's love.

This person is Qian Yang, and the people who posted the note on his face are Wu Qingshui and Yang Gong.

After Qian Yang and the miners escaped from the Hongtoushan mine, the miners dispersed, and only the stone-solving worker Xiaolin did not find a place to return for the time being, so he followed Qian Yang and Wu Qingshui's side.

Qian Yang first found a secret place and healed Yang Gong's injuries. Later, under the pinch of Wu Qingshui, who was thinking of making a fortune, Jin Dan Sansil took Xiaolin and Lao Ding on his back and returned to Yifang City again.

Qian Yang was timid, he felt that he had killed so many people from the Duobao Sect in Hongtou Mountain, and he was afraid that the Duobao Sect would not give up.

After entering the city, Qian Yang@ didn't dare to show up at all, and he didn't even let the two fools with too outstanding images show up, but just asked Xiaolin to come forward and rent a house in a remote place.

After a few people settled down, Qian Yang still had no bottom in his heart, and asked Xiaolin to go out to find out the news again, but he only dared to stay at home and play cards with two fools to make fun of the boring people.

Xiao Lin carefully recounted the gossip information he had obtained that day, and the three people were stunned when they heard it.

They wondered how a good war could be spread like this.

However, Qian Yang figured out the joints after a little thought, if something like gossip wants to be sung, it will definitely not catch the eye if there is no peachy scandal or anything.

Feeling emotional, Qian Yang still found that behind this fictional story that combines romance, revenge, war, and human nature, a lot of things are revealed.

Before Qian Yang had time to think about it, Xiao Lin said that Duobaozong took out a Jindan antique as a prize for the press conference.

Dasha Er's face was happy, but Qian Yang "chuckled" in his heart, and a thought instantly crossed his mind: There will be such a coincidental thing in the world?
