On the second day, Yin Xiuxuan inquired about Lu Fangxiong's residence and went to find him early. After reporting his name to the waiter at the door, it turned out that Lu Fangxiong had already informed him, and Yin Xiuxuan was taken directly into the courtyard.
In the Black Water Sect, anyone who is at the Archdeacon level or Master level or above can get the treatment of a single building and a single courtyard. Of course, like Wang Gang, the four of them are as close as brothers, and there is no need to force them if they don't want to separate.
Yin Xiuxuan followed the waiter all the way and walked for a while before arriving at the reception area, which was Lu Fangxiong's study.
There is a desk in the center of the study, a gold-inlaid panel behind it, and a chair on each side. There are two chairs on each side of the guest area. Judging from the material, they are all made of finely carved nanmu.
Yin Xiuxuan estimated in his heart that this piece of furniture alone cost three hundred taels of silver. It was just a decoration for the hall master's study, which showed the depth of Heishuimen's background.
After entering the study, the waiter excused himself, but Lu Fangxiong had not yet come, so Yin Xiuxuan looked around as he had nothing to do.
Although it is a study room, there is not a single book in the study room. There are only countless ores of various colors on the shelves on both sides. Yin Xiuxuan took a closer look and found that they were all high-quality ores, and there were a few small ores among them.
Rare minerals.
These ores were presumably collected by Lu Fangxiong himself, and those rare pieces of ore would presumably bring him one step closer to the throne of the Grand Master.
"Hahaha~"
There was a burst of laughter, and Yin Xiuxuan stopped thinking about continuing to taste the ore.
"Are you the leader of the younger generation in our training hall - Yin Xiuxuan?" A middle-aged man in fine clothes walked in and asked.
Yin Xiuxuan bowed his hands and said: "Young man Yin Xiuxuan has met Deputy Hall Master Lu, and he is ashamed to be called a leader!"
This middle-aged man in fine clothes is naturally Lu Fangxiong.
"Haha, why don't you dare to take it! Among the younger generation, only you can always complete the assigned tasks. Even I didn't have such ability back then!"
Hearing what Lu Fangxiong said, Yin Xiuxuan was even more confused. Could it be that he called me here just to praise me? Yin Xiuxuan didn't know why, he only said: "You just have good luck. You don't deserve such praise from the deputy hall master!"
Lu Fangxiong took the main seat, pointed to a guest seat with Yin Xiuxuan, and said: "I asked you to come here today. The first reason I came was to meet you, a young talent, and to see if you are worthy of your reputation! Now that I have seen you,
His temperament, conduct, and appearance are all top-notch, not bad, not bad.”
Yin Xiuxuan took the guest seat, cupped his hands and said, "Vice Hall Master Lu, thank you!"
Lu Fangxiong waved his hand, "Don't thank me too quickly, I still have to test you here."
"Just follow the guidance of the deputy gang leader."
"Okay, come, take a look at my collection here." After saying this, Lu Fangxiong stood up and walked to the shelf on the left. Yin Xiuxuan naturally got up and followed him.
Pointing to a piece of ore that glowed with blue light, Lu Fangxiong turned around and asked, "What kind of ore is this?"
Yin Xiuxuan took a step forward, came under the shelf, looked at it carefully, and said, "This is cold iron concentrate!"
"Oh, do you know how it is generated?"
"Cold iron concentrate is the best of fine ores, with the effects of refined iron and cold jade. It was originally an ordinary iron ore, and then in a cold place, after thousands of years, it was squeezed by ice to remove impurities and contain cold air.
, this is it." Yin Xiuxuan memorized the introduction in the book one by one.
"Okay, since you are like this, you will definitely know where you can encounter it, and I don't have to ask anymore. Then take a look at this ore." Lu Fangxiong pointed out a piece of ore to Yin Xiuxuan again.
"This is..."
After that, Lu Fangxiong pointed out the shelf and tested it against Yin Xiuxuan. Yin Xiuxuan followed what was written in the book and answered the characteristics of various ores, their origin and how to survey them one by one without any mistakes.
Lu Fangxiong nodded repeatedly to express his satisfaction. However, Yin Xiuxuan was not satisfied with Lu Fangxiong.
Yin Xiuxuan's answer was just written in a book. You can know it if you read it carefully. But since Yin Xiuxuan followed Deacon Wu, he learned that what is written in the book is not necessarily correct. It is not that the person who wrote the book deliberately concealed it, but
The actual situation may not be clearly described in words, so it is unclear and difficult for future generations to truly understand.
At that time, Deacon Wu’s private teaching to Yin Xiuxuan was to thoroughly explain various situations one by one and try his best to provide guidance in actual mining. Therefore, Yin Xiuxuan had a mining level that far exceeded that of his peers.
Originally, according to Yin Xiuxuan's thinking, since Deputy Hall Master Lu is a master-level mining expert, his mining skills should not be inferior to those of Deacon Wu. Now after a comparison, when Yin Xiuxuan only recited the contents of the book, he should
He just needed a little guidance. Unexpectedly, there was no guidance at all, but he kept praising him. This was completely inconsistent with his image in the minds of the disciples in the refining hall!
Although Yin Xiuxuan was thinking secretly in his heart, he did not show it at all. He still answered Lu Fangxiong's questions with a respectful expression on his face.
Most of the ores, who were acting arrogantly, asked, but Lu Fangxiong laughed again and said: "You are indeed a young hero, and you are worthy of your reputation!"
Yin Xiuxuan shook his head and said: "Yin Xiuxuan is ashamed!"
"Haha, the first thing is finally completed. I'll talk to you about the second thing again!" Lu Fangxiong walked back to the main seat and sat down.
"Please give me your instructions, Deputy Hall Master!"
"This second thing is not a big deal, but I heard that you handed over precious meteorite twice not long ago. Is this true?"
When Yin Xiuxuan heard this, he knew that the main event was coming, but he was not too worried. At most, he would just hand over all the meteorite ores.
"Indeed!"
"Oh, can you tell me how you discovered this meteorite twice?"
"It's all right." Yin Xiuxuan paused for a moment, as if to collect his thoughts, and then said: "This is the first time..." Yin Xiuxuan once again told the story of accidentally picking up meteorite ore that he had fabricated.
"Oh, that's it. It's true that this meteorite was created by meteorites from outside the sky. There are no rules. It's normal to accidentally pick it up!"
Yin Xiuxuan nodded and said: "That's exactly it!"
"In this case, your luck is extraordinary!"
"It's just a moment of luck, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."
"Haha, it's not worth mentioning."
"Pa!" Lu Fangxiong suddenly slapped the table, and the smile on his face suddenly turned into an angry look, and he said in a gloomy tone to Zhang Xuan: "How brave Yin Xiuxuan, you dare to hide the precious ore and refuse to hand it over, what crime do you deserve!"
Yin Xiu
Yin Xiuxuan doesn’t know what you are talking about, please enlighten me!”
"Hmph! Don't think that this deputy hall master doesn't know that you originally got a piece of meteorite ore, but you didn't hand it over directly. Instead, you divided it and handed it over twice to fulfill the mission. Now you must still have the meteorite mine secretly. You said you should
What crime?"
Seeing Lu Fangxiong's words, Yin Xiuxuan also knew that his thoughts would never be able to escape the eyes of such an old and cunning person, so he had no choice but to say: "To report to Deputy Gang Leader Lu, I did get another meteorite mine recently, but I just want to play with it."
After I handed it over again, since the deputy gang leader discovered it, I will go back and get it and hand it over."
When Lu Fangxiong saw Yin Xiuxuan admitting that there was indeed ore, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes and he said quickly:
