In Heiyun Valley, in a courtyard of the Valley Lord's Mansion, Wei Yue, the Valley Lord's direct disciple, walked out of a simple alchemy room with a gloomy expression.
"Senior Brother Wei, what did the Valley Master say?"
Seeing Wei Yue's ugly face, inner disciple Chu He knew something was wrong, but he could only step forward and ask.
Wei Yue frowned and said, "You also know what happened last night. Now everyone is tracking down the escaped monk. How can I care about your troubles?"
Chu He said with a bitter face: "Senior brother, if this matter is not investigated and brought to light, the spiritual stones you and I invested in Hongyun Pavilion will be lost!"
"That idiot Hong Yitian promised at the time that he could double his spiritual stones in less than a year. But now, let alone earning spiritual stones, he has even lost all his capital.
I really want to crush him to ashes!"
Thinking of the spiritual stone he had lost, Wei Yue also felt pain in his heart.
Chu He thought in his heart: Hong Yitian was blown to pieces. If you want to break the bones and spread the ashes, I'm afraid you have no chance.
Although he was slandering, Chu He still said: "Senior Brother Wei, even if the Valley Master doesn't care, you and I can still investigate in secret.
There are very few people who have the ability and courage to commit such a major case. As long as we investigate carefully, we are not afraid of finding clues!"
"I'm just afraid that this matter has something to do with the monk who triggered the mountain-protecting formation last night."
Wei Yue muttered, "Otherwise, why would so many strange things happen one after another? Since this person can escape the bombardment of two thunderbolts, it will be easy to destroy Hongyun Pavilion."
"If you really have that level of ability, why would you like a shabby place like Hongyun Pavilion?"
Chu He was startled, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this possibility was unlikely.
"Anyway, keep an eye on this matter and let me know immediately if you have any clues.
If I know who did it, I will definitely let them have a taste of my methods!"
Wei Yue snorted coldly, sending out waves of chills all over his body.
At the same time, in the Drizzle Tower, a handsome young man in white clothes was listening to the music of Gu Qinglan. He held a folding fan in his right hand and gently tapped his left palm in harmony with the music, with a look of intoxication on his face.
.
"Ding..." The sound of the piano suddenly stopped, but one of the strings was broken.
A trace of bitterness appeared on Gu Qinglan's face, she shook her head slightly and said, "Oh, my heart is too confused."
"Master Qinglan, are you still worried about what happened yesterday?"
The young man asked with a concerned tone.
"Senior Brother Ye Fei, has the matter of Hongyun Pavilion really been suppressed?"
This was obviously good news, but Gu Qinglan was still a little uneasy.
"Master, you can rest assured that I am quite popular in the valley.
Even though this matter is of great importance, I will try my best to suppress it and not let anyone make it difficult for you."
A trace of undetectable cunning flashed in Ye Fei's eyes.
How did Gu Qinglan know the detailed situation in the valley? Hearing this, he nodded and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Ye. Qinglan will not forget this kindness."
Ye Fei's eyes lit up and he said generously: "Master Qinglan Building, why are you so polite? You and I have known each other for only a day or two. The matter of Xiaoyu Building is my, Ye Fei's, business.
Don't talk about such a trivial matter, even if the sky falls and the earth falls apart, Ye Fei will protect you!"
He paused and then said: "How have you considered the matter I mentioned a while ago?"
Gu Qinglan's expression changed slightly, she chuckled and said: "That matter is related to my life, and I need to think about it for some time.
Could it be that Senior Brother Ye Fei is anxious?"
"No hurry, no rush!"
Ye Fei waved his hands repeatedly, but couldn't hide the look of disappointment on his face.
"In this case, please give me some more time, senior brother.
The future is long, isn’t it?”
There was a hint of helplessness in Gu Qinglan's eyebrows.
...Although Black Cloud Valley is prohibited from entering and exiting, life in the valley is still as usual.
Li Xuan changed his appearance and walked on the streets of Black Cloud Valley. No one knew that he was the terrifying genius who shocked everyone in Youzhou City with his skills a few days ago and crushed all the young monks in Black Cloud Valley.
Following Wan Yongmei's prompts, Li Xuan came to the door of a very inconspicuous shop and gently knocked on the half-closed wooden door.
After a while, a rumbling voice came from inside: "Who is it?"
"Xiyulou, I was introduced by Master Wan."
Li Xuan said.
"Lord Wan?
come in!"
The voice said.
Li Xuan pushed the door open and went in. Inside was a grocery store with various items piled up in a mess. A fat man with a big head and big ears was struggling to get up from the rocking chair. Judging from his sleepy look, it seemed that he had just been woken up.
"Shopkeeper Wang, right? My name is Li Xuan. Master Wan said you are the best at appraising treasures, so I came here to visit you."
Li Xuan said.
According to Wan Yongmei, this Fatty Wang, despite his unimpressive appearance, is the best treasure appraiser in Black Cloud Valley and a black market businessman.
Even Gu Qinglan said that Fatty Wang can get some treasures that are not available in Xiaoyu Tower and Hongyun Pavilion.
Fatty Wang looked at Li Xuan for a few times and curled his lips and said, "You know the rules, right?
Regardless of whether your items are valuable or not, the appraisal fee cannot be less."
"I understand the rules."
Li Xuan nodded and handed over a small bag of spiritual stones.
Fatty Wang took the spirit stone, weighed it, and said with satisfaction: "Where are the things?"
Li Xuan took out several treasures he grabbed from Hongyun Pavilion and handed them to Fatty Wang.
Fatty Wang took it and glanced at it, his face changed slightly, and his eyes when he looked at Li Xuan changed several times.
"Friend, you are so brave. These are stolen goods. You actually dare to come to me for appraisal?"
Fatty Wang suddenly shouted.
Li Xuan smiled lightly: "I heard that Shopkeeper Wang only looks at things without asking about their origins.
What, the rumors are wrong?"
Fatty Wang stared into Li Xuan's eyes, and after a few seconds he laughed loudly: "Hahaha, that's right.
I am a person who only looks at things without asking about their origins.
No matter where you snatched it from, it has nothing to do with me!"
As he spoke, Fatty Wang handed the things back, gave a thumbs up and said, "Friend, based on your judgment, there is no need to ask me for appraisal.
These things you brought are considered to be this in Hongyun Pavilion!"
Li Xuan smiled noncommittally: "Since they are all good things, do you want them?"
Fatty Wang hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "The stuff is good, but you also know that its origin is not very upright, and it cannot be sold in Heiyun Valley and can only be taken outside.
As a result, the price will be greatly reduced.”
"No problem, as long as I'm safe."
Li Xuan said.
"All these, how about seven thousand spirit stones?"
Fatty Wang thought about it and gave a price.
Li Xuan also has an estimate of these things. If they were sold in Hongyun Pavilion or Xiaoyu Building, they would be worth at least 20,000 spiritual stones.
But this is selling stolen goods, not doing business, so a 30% discount is reasonable.
"make a deal."
Li Xuan smiled.
Fatty Wang’s prices are quite generous, and it looks like I can do more business with him in the future.
The two sides handed over things in one hand and spirit stones in the other, but Li Xuan suddenly said: "Wait a minute..." "What?"
Fatty Wang was confused.
Li Xuan took out the palm and said: "I just forgot that there is such a thing.
Shopkeeper Wang, please help me take a look, what is the origin of this thing?"
This thunder in the palm is the purpose of Li Xuan coming to see Fatty Wang!
