- Feng Fan exchanged Millennium Spiritual Grass for some gold and silver, and came to Jinshui County, ready to find out the cause of Ding Qiujie's death. He sat quietly at the table and looked down carefully through the window.
"What would you like, sir?" A waiter from Chunfeng Tower came to Feng Fan and asked with a smile on his face.
"A plate of beef and two pieces of dry food." Feng Fan said and handed an ingot of gold to the waiter.
"This" The waiter had a look of disbelief on his face. He was extremely surprised to find such an ingot of gold on a plate of beef and two pieces of dry food.
"Except for the meal money, there is no need to change the rest. I will give it to you. I just want to ask you something." Feng Fan moved the ingot of gold a little closer to the waiter.
"Sir, if you have any questions, just ask me. Nothing in Jinshui County can be hidden from me!" The man was startled at first, then he patted his chest, took the ingot of gold, and said happily.
"Where is Lord Qin Chengyue's residence?" Feng Fan finally got to the point.
"One mile from here along the main road to the south is Lord Qin's county magistrate's office. However, Lord Qin is busy supervising the mining of ores. It may not be easy for the guest to see Lord Qin."
"County magistrate? Isn't Mr. Qin the prison chief?" Feng Fan's heart moved slightly and he asked in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, you don't know. Since the death of County Magistrate Ding half a year ago, Mr. Qin has taken his place. These days, as long as you have enough money, you can buy an official position." The man lowered his voice at the end. Afraid of being heard by others.
"Where is that quarry? What's so special about it that you bother the county magistrate to personally supervise it?"
"The stone mine is in a remote place more than ten miles due north of here. I just heard that the stones mined in that mine are secretly sent to a place where most people don't know the exact location. It's not gold or silver. , I don¡¯t know why it¡¯s so mysterious? As for the others, I¡¯m not very clear about it.¡± The clerk first looked around to confirm that no one was paying attention here, and then told Feng Fan what he said.
"Thank you very much." Feng Fan was very satisfied with the waiter's answer and said with a smile.
"It's nothing to worry about. Sir, please wait a moment. I'll go down and prepare a meal for you." The waiter turned and left. £® £® £® £® £®
In front of us are mountains. There is a low-lying land between the mountains, surrounded by barren weeds. The depression in the middle has sunk slightly, exposing pieces of white boulders. There are some mined white ores placed around, and white stone powder is floating in the air.
There are dozens of people below, and they are constantly mining ore. Everyone was shirtless and strong. Although they were sweating profusely under the scorching sun, everyone had no intention of stopping. Bursts of harsh sounds echoed around, like a chaotic piece of music.
A middle-aged man in official uniform stood nearby, staring closely at those people with a slight anxiety on his face. This man had a face as black as coal and a tall build. He held a short knife tightly in his right hand, and the blade shone coldly in the sunlight.
A young man suddenly appeared around the depression. It was Feng Fan who went to the county magistrate's house to search for Qin Chengyue but failed, and then found this place. Feeling the real energy fluctuations in front of him, Feng Fan felt a little surprised in his heart, and the familiar feeling of accidentally discovering the crystal jade mine eleven years ago came to his heart again.
"Boy, who are you? How dare you break into the official's important place without permission?" Seeing Feng Fan appear in front, the middle-aged man asked with a cold expression. Those who were mining ores also stopped and looked at Feng Fan with unkind expressions.
"I just wanted to find Qin Chengyue, the magistrate of Jinshui County, so I came here." Feng Fan replied coldly.
"I am Qin Chengyue, who are you?" The short knife in Qin Chengyue's hand shook, as if to demonstrate to Feng Fan.
"How did Ding Qiujie die?" Cold words came from Feng Fan's mouth.
Qin Chengyue said nothing, and gave his men a wink. Those people quickly walked out of the depression and surrounded Feng Fan. Everyone looked hostile and wanted to kill Feng Fan immediately.
"Take him down." Following Qin Chengyue's order, those people rushed towards Feng Fan waving their hammers and chisels.
Feng Fan quickly jumped up, and while waving his left hand, countless ice picks shot out. There were endless screams, and dozens of people fell to the ground. Several blood holes appeared on everyone's body, and countless blood arrows spurted out, like countless fountains intertwined together, and a thick fishy smell filled the surroundings.
The sight in front of him made Qin Chengyue extremely horrified, and his face became a little distorted due to fear. Feng Fan slowly fell to the ground and cast his cold eyes on Qin Chengyue again. Although in the scorching summer, a stream of iceThe cold feeling still surged throughout Qin Chengyue's body.
"Tell me, how did Ding Qiujie die?" Feng Fan's question was like a thunderbolt, making Qin Chengyue wake up from the shock. Qin Chengyue already understood that the person coming was a cultivator.
Qin Chengyue gritted his teeth and raised his left hand. A bamboo whistle arrow shot into the sky with a high-pitched whistling sound, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Feng Fan had a sarcastic look on Qin Chengyue's summons to his accomplices. Even if there are thousands of troops, Feng Fan doesn't care at all. The power of mortals can no longer pose any threat to him.
The next moment, Feng Fan appeared in front of Qin Chengyue like a ghost, with the Qinghong Sword already placed on Qin Chengyue's neck.
"Now you can tell the truth!" The Qinghong Sword in Feng Fan's hand locked tightly on Qin Chengyue's neck, and penetrated slightly into the flesh. A trace of blood seeped out from the place where the Qinghong Sword contacted the neck.
"Don't kill me! I say! I say!" Qin Chengyue begged in panic, and the short knife in his hand fell to the ground, making a crisp sound of the knife and stone hitting the ground. The sound made Qin Chengyue's body shake slightly.
After calming down, Qin Chengyue said cautiously: "Half a year ago, I discovered this crystal jade mine in this place. I wanted to mine it secretly, but it was discovered by Ding Qiujie, no, Master Ding, so I took this jade mine. The matter was reported to my Qin family, you should know about the Qin family in Jinyue Ancient Kingdom."
Hearing Qin Chengyue mention the Qin family, Feng Fan snorted coldly, seemed a little dismissive, and asked: "How did you know that this stone mine is a crystal jade mine?"
"The younger one can be considered a member of the Qin family, but he failed to cultivate in his early years and could not even reach the first level of the Qi Gathering stage, so he came to this worldly place to live. Originally, the younger one planned to work as an official and a half-job, and then He ended his life. Because he had practiced cultivation in the past, when he accidentally approached this place, he felt the real energy fluctuation here, so he reported it to the family. Finally, the family sent monks over and found that this place was a small crystal jade Mine." Qin Chengyue's tone was filled with caution, lest he said the wrong words and offended the evil star in front of him, which would immediately cost him his life.
