The draft has not been corrected for typos. Tan Shuangshuang doesn’t know why he has such an idea. In fact, the desolation in the south does not necessarily mean that the problem lies in the south. It is more likely that the arrester is only arresting people in this location. As for the real lair, it is very possible

It's no longer normal here.

After all, rabbits don't eat grass on the edge of their nests. It's easy for things to go wrong when they do bad things in front of their own homes, so the problem is no longer here. But Tan Shuangshuang doesn't know why, but he just has a strange feeling. He doesn't know what the arrester is.

The location of some organization is right here.

Tan Shuangshuang's intuition has always been very accurate, and since he had no clue about this matter, it didn't hurt to walk to the south, so he came directly here. Tan Shuangshuang didn't expect that he would enter the mountain, but everyone came here.

, coupled with the intuition in his heart, Tan Shuangshuang thought it would be okay to go into the mountains to have a look.

Tan Yue was a little confused about Tan Shuangshuang's decision to enter the mountain. According to her opinion, those who arrested people without paying attention to any traces were very smart. If they arrested people at this location, their lair would never be there.

here.

Because it was too dangerous, many people had been lost in this direction before. Several major families in Bushui City had teamed up to search the area carefully many times, but there were no traces.

With so many people searching together, if the other party's lair is really hidden here, Tan Yue doesn't think that Tan Shuangshuang's coming and going will be of any use. However, Tan Shuangshuang is the young genius of the master's family, and she can't offend her.

So I could only follow the journey with the thought that it would be a waste of time.

Because of the dense concentration of mithril mines in this section of the mountain, there are a lot of people coming and going, and there are many people walking there. There are no ordinary wild beasts or magical beasts, and a path has been trampled out of the mountain forest.

Tan Shuangshuang walked forward along this path. The path meandered deep into the mountain. After going a while, the path forked.

Tan Yue explained on the side: "This path goes straight forward, and the place where it separates is where the mithril mines of several major families in Bushuicheng City are located. This fork in the road used to be the mithril mines of the Wang family, because people have been panicking recently.

The warriors who come to mine don’t dare to quit their jobs. Now, except for the Bai family’s mithril mine, which is still mining for special reasons, other people’s mithril mines are no longer mined.”

"Where do you hire people for the Bai family's mithril mine? Why do you continue to mine?" Tan Shuangshuang asked a little confused after listening to Tan Yue's words.

"I heard that the Bai family has found a big customer. They have to buy high-quality mithril every month. The portion is quite large and the price is extremely high. They do not allow any delays or quality problems, otherwise they will terminate the contract and find another company.

Buy Mithril.”

Tan Yue sighed, feeling a little helpless, "Bunshui City is in such chaos now. Not to mention warriors, warriors dare not continue to take jobs and work in the mines to make money. Even if the Bai family hires people at high prices, no one is willing to do it. Without people, it is impossible to mine secrets."

Silver, the Bai family had no choice, so in order to ensure that this big customer would not be lost, they sent all the members of the family to mine."

While explaining, Tan Yue led Tan Shuangshuang to go around the fork in the Wang family's road and continue forward. You can't go to other people's mithril mines randomly, as it can easily cause unnecessary misunderstandings and troubles.

Tan Shuangshuang thought the Bai family was interesting. They actually put their own people in danger for a big client. She didn't know whether to say they had integrity or that the family wanted money rather than their lives.

Mithril has a wide range of uses, and no matter how much it is produced, it will never be sold. Even if it is rare to find a big customer, its absence will not cause Mithril to be unsaleable. It is not worth risking the risk of someone in the family being captured to mine Mithril.

Tan Shuangshuang immediately listed the Bai family as a key observation object. Tan Shuangshuang felt that there was definitely something wrong with the Bai family, so after returning from the mountain, she asked Tan Yue to immediately send people to investigate the recent period of the Bai family.

All the big and small things that happened must be investigated.

Tan Yue frowned slightly. She wanted to say something but didn't say it in the end, so she ordered her to go down and investigate according to Han Shuangshuang's wishes.

The Tan family branch managed by Tan Yue was very good, and the people in the family were also very efficient. However, in about three days, all the information Tan Shuangshuang requested appeared in front of her, and the content was so detailed that it was almost white.

During this time at home, everyone’s physiological needs were investigated and recorded.

Tan Shuangshuang was sitting in the room, flipping through the survey data in his hand. The survey data showed that although the Bai family was also engaged in cryptographic business, they suddenly had many big customers a year ago, and then the Bai family's cryptographic silver was in short supply.

Got up.

Tan Shuangshuang looked at this piece of information repeatedly, tapping his fingers unconsciously on the table. This was a bit strange. Although the nearby mithril mines were managed separately by the big families in Bushui City, in fact, each mine produced

The quantity and quality of mithril are similar.

In this case, why do these sudden big patrons only focus on the Bai family for transactions and ignore other families? Even if other families want to poach, these big patrons of the Bai family actually ignore them. It's clear.

It is unreasonable to only recognize the Bai family.

It is normal for people who really want to buy something to shop around. It is impossible to just buy from one store. What’s more, the output of a mithril mine is limited in quantity. Did the Bai family suddenly get a mithril mine? Where did it come from?

So much mithril sold?

This was just the first doubt. Tan Shuangshuang continued to look through the information in his hands and found that the Bai family had suddenly become very wealthy this year. Although the Bai family looked the same on the surface as before, after careful investigation, it was discovered that the Bai family had

Suddenly there were a lot of high-end elixirs, even

As for some important direct descendants, there are more weapons that can be upgraded to higher grades. Although they are only lower-grade yellow-grade weapons, the grades will change if the weapons are available. They are particularly expensive. This is because Tan Shuangshuang has made such a big contribution, and the family rewards

The weapons are only yellow-level and low-grade, which can be seen.

The Tan family is a big family in the fourth-level city, and its background is not comparable to that of the families in this small seventh-level city. This shows that the Bai family can suddenly have so many low-level yellow-level weapons, as well as high-level elixirs that are particularly expensive.

Medicine, this is no longer an ordinary luxury.

Moreover, the Bai family spent this money secretly, because these elixirs and weapons have never been exposed to the outside world. If the people from the Tan family who went to find out the information had not had some special skills, they would not have discovered this excellent secret hidden by the Bai family.

.

Tan Shuangshuang was sure that there was something wrong with the Bai family, and her first suspicion was the Bai family's mithril mine that refused to stop working. Although she didn't know what secrets there were in the mines, they suddenly became wealthy during the day, and the number of people increased suddenly.

The big patron must be related to this mithril mine.

There are also grades of mithril, ordinary mithril, medium mithril, and high-grade mithril. The difference is one, and the price of the grade is very different. However, the mithril mines in the mountain are all ordinary and medium, and occasionally some high-grade mithril is mined.

Wait for it.

Above the ordinary, medium, and superior grades, there is also an extremely precious mithril called mithril gold crystal. The price of mithril gold crystal is astronomical, but the way it appears is unpredictable. However, mithril gold crystal mines are mostly attached to mithril gold crystals.

In silver mines, regardless of the grade of mithril ore, there may be attached mithril gold crystal ore.

Therefore, Tan Shuangshuang's first suspicion was that the Bai family's mithril mine had an attached mithril gold crystal mine. The Bai family was afraid of being discovered and attracted covetousness, so they kept it secret. Then those who lost it could easily speculate.

He was captured and imprisoned by people from the Bai family to help secretly mine. This is the most reasonable explanation.

This also understands why the heads of the Bai family ignore other families, because it is impossible for other families to have mithril gold crystals. At the same time, mithril gold crystals are too difficult to find and too precious. In order to keep the secret of the mithril gold crystal mine, the Bai family

, he should be searching secretly in secret

Buyers, and the selling price of Mithril Gold Crystals will not be too high. In order to ensure that they can monopolize this cheap channel to buy Mithril Gold Crystals, these big customers will definitely not tell others about it. They keep it secret for a long time, which makes Bai Bai

The family kept the news tightly under wraps.

Tan Shuangshuang felt that if her guess was true, then the Bai family was really stupid. They were afraid that what they had in their hands would attract the attention and covetation of other families in Bushui City, so they chose such a sneaky way to protect their family's interests, but they didn't know

This is more dangerous.

Busy Water City is nothing more than a group of hyenas among many families. As long as they share some of the benefits to these families, they can satisfy their appetites. However, people like the Bai family can afford to buy expensive and luxurious minerals such as Mithril Gold Crystals in large quantities.

, that is a fierce tiger, whose appetite may not be satisfied unless it knocks their bones and sucks out their marrow.

Tan Shuangshuang dared to assert that the Bai family's mineral vein had been targeted by one of the tigers that the family had hired themselves, or perhaps more than one had targeted it. This was because no one wanted to strike first, thus maintaining a delicate balance.

The Bai family has been able to continue to exist peacefully for so long.

But this balance is destined not to last long, and one party will always be unable to help but strike first. No matter which party strikes first, the whole family will be meat on the chopping board, to be slaughtered by others.

Tan Shuangshuang put down the information in her hands and pressed her forehead with a headache. The missing people's cultivation levels were all below that of warriors. This was because the Bai family was not easy to control those above warriors.

What troubles Tan Shuangshuang now is that he doesn't know whether the Bai family is responsible for the disappearance of many people this time, or whether the many tigers attracted by the Bai family have also followed suit and tried their best.

If the Bai family did it themselves, it would be very simple to deal with it. Just reveal the secret of the Bai family. Then there will be no need for the Tan family to do anything. Busan Shuicheng will bite other families like a shark that has seen blood.

.

And once this matter is torn apart, the fact that the Bai family has captured many warriors will inevitably be used by other families to attack the Bai family. This is not a good thing for the Bai family, but it is the best and most effective way to rescue those who were captured.

A labor-saving method.

But what Tan Shuangshuang thinks is difficult is if the tigers recruited by the Bai family did it together, and the possibility is as high as 80%.

If this is really the case, then these people will not allow Tan Shuangshuang to tear off this layer of cover without getting any benefits and actually tearing off the satisfying flesh and blood. In other words, once Tan Shuangshuang wants to do something, the first

The enemy to be faced is not the Bai family, but the tigers attracted by the bait released by the Bai family.

Reading the information gave her a headache. Tan Shuangshuang pushed away the information at hand, changed into fresh clothes and prepared to go out for a walk. She happened to meet Tan Yue who came to see Tan Shuangshuang. Naturally, Tan Yue also had a copy of Tan Shuangshuang's information.

To be able to become the head of a family, Tan Yue's mind is naturally smart enough. Tan Yue can also see the problems that Tan Shuangshuang can see.

The reason why Tan Yue was clueless and worried before was because she had never suspected that there was something wrong with the Bai family. Now that the clouds are clearing, all the problems have been laid out in front of her, so Tan Yue's current situation

Her mood was as heavy as Tan Shuangshuang's. Tan Yue, who was planning to come to Tan Shuangshuang to discuss countermeasures, was stunned when she saw Tan Shuangshuang looking ready to go out.

Tan Shuangshuang invited smoothly, "Tan family, don't you want to accompany me to go out and walk around this busy city?"

This time Tan Yue agreed happily. She had not forgotten that the last time Tan Shuangshuang went out for a walk, he ended up revealing the Bai family's well-hidden secrets. If she could bring back some evidence this time,

That'll be great, Tan Yue thought happily.

It was then that Tan Shuangshuang discovered that Busshui City had been greatly affected by this incident. Now, not only the area near the south gate, but also other places were very depressed. There were almost no people walking on the street.

Tan Shuangshuang and Tan Yue went to the largest restaurant in this busy city. They went in and ordered a few delicious dishes. They found a seat in the lobby and started eating slowly.

It was dinner time, and people came over to eat one after another. I didn’t know whether the people who came in were local Tan Shuangshuang, but feeling the majestic power in these people’s bodies, it was obvious that their cultivation levels were not low, and there were several

A person who brought a sense of oppression to Tan Shuangshuang.

Tan Shuangshuang didn't need to say more to know that this group of people should be the so-called major patrons invited by the Bai family.

It is said that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, but the one in the local area must be a snake. In the eyes of these people who got it from the Bai family, these so-called big families in Bushui City cannot be called local snakes at all, they are just local worms.

The kind that can be easily crushed to death.

While Tan Shuangshuang was eating, he watched these people gather together in small groups, leisurely discussing some content that Tan Shuangshuang could not understand. Then soon, a member of the Bai family came in and took away one of them.

People, after listening to the discussion of the remaining people after that person left, I knew that it was that person's turn to go to Bai's house to get the goods today.

The two people met and left. The time spent was so short that they didn't even take a breath, and there was absolutely no useful verbal communication that could be analyzed by Tan Shuangshuang.
