Chapter 225 This few spirit stones may not be enough
Two Jin Danqi shuttled through the city of Luofeng County. They obviously knew the route by heart. Luofeng County would arrange for monks to patrol at night, and the two cleverly avoided the patrol route.
At this time Li Haoran was woken up by the Suyi people, and he had a strange expression after listening to his fiancée briefly explain the ins and outs of the matter.
"Brother Meng is finally being targeted for flaunting his wealth?"
"What is showing off your wealth? I can't tell others if I have money?" Meng Jingzhou stared. When he was the young master of the Meng family in the imperial city, who would dare to pay attention to his things?
The Suyi led the three of them to secretly follow the two Jindanqis. When they were walking through the room, Lu Yang caught a glimpse of someone in the distance walking through the room like himself from the corner of his eye.
"Is the night in Luofeng County so lively?"
Lu Yang originally wanted to chase over to check the situation, but saw the two Jin Danqi entering a high-walled house, so he had to take care of the immediate matter first.
"I remember this is... the Sheriff's Mansion?" Li Haoran hesitated, suspecting that he remembered it wrong.
The phoenix blood stone of 500,000 spirit stones is indeed precious, but it is not so precious that a county guard will be tempted.
Unless the Phoenix Blood Stone bought by Brother Meng has other secrets.
The high-walled house is surrounded by formations, if you don't know how to advance rashly, you will be noticed by the people in the house.
The Suyes ignored the formation and brought the three of them into the house smoothly.
"Master, we are back." The two Jin Danqi respectfully said to the middle-aged man standing with their hands behind their backs.
Li Haoran has never met the sheriff, so he doesn't know if this middle-aged man is the sheriff, or a housekeeper.
The middle-aged man hummed lightly: "Did you get that thing?"
The two were a little ashamed: "There was an accident, we were worried that the commotion would be too loud, so we didn't continue to steal that thing."
"Accident?"
"Yes, we met people who also stole that item at Li Haoran's house. Although they didn't disclose their identities, I suspect they were sent by the Mo family."
"What's going on, let me explain in detail."
The two of them perfectly restored the scene at that time. Unexpectedly, the master was furious: "Hmph, you have been deceived! What you met was not the Mo family at all, but a disciple of Dao Dao Sect!"
"If I guessed right, they're eavesdropping on the room right now!"
"I've said this far, you guys come out, let's talk openly and honestly."
Li Haoran was startled, and was about to show up when Lu Yang stopped him.
Lu Yang shook his head and didn't say anything.
The master waited for a long time but still did not wait for anyone to appear: "It seems that what you met was indeed the Mo family. Sure enough, the Mo family also knew the existence of that thing."
He was just cheating just now.
He heard a report from his subordinates yesterday and learned that three disciples of the Wendao Sect in the Foundation Establishment Stage had come to Luofeng County, and one of them was a native of Luofeng County. But he didn't take this matter to heart.
Unexpectedly, the subordinates reported this afternoon that one of the Dao Dao sect disciples had bought an extremely rare Phoenix Blood Stone, and went to other shops to look for similar Phoenix Blood Stones.
He was startled when his subordinates described the appearance of the Phoenix Blood Stone, and suspected that it was the faulty Phoenix Blood Stone.
This cannot fall into the hands of Dao Dao Zong, it will be terrible if Dao Dao Zong finds out.
He sent two men to steal the Phoenix Blood Stone, and met the Mo family.
The Mo family is the largest family in Luofeng County, and they don't deal with him as the county guard, and they always want to seize their own troubles.
"Tsk, I don't know how that thing came out, did you ask the shop owner who sold that thing?"
"He is no longer there. I heard from the staff that the store owner earned a lot of money and took his wife and children on a trip. He won't be able to return for a while. Now there are only a few staff to look after the house."
"It's really enviable."
"Ah, sir, what did you just say?"
"nothing."
The county guard said that after finishing the vote, he would take his wife and children to other places.
The reason for the collapse of the mine can only be delayed for a while. After all, in the world of cultivating immortals, a few high-level monks can directly open a new mine.
Taking the county guard himself as an example, as long as he makes a move, he can open a mine in half a day. Now he claims that something went wrong in his practice and he can't make a move within half a month.
“They say it will take three more days.”
"Let them speed up, but keep it secret. We must not let outsiders know about this matter. This matter is not only related to us, but also related to the interests of the Feng Clan!"
"yes!"
The four of Lu Yang were taken aback when they heard this. Hearing what the sheriff said, he still colluded with the Feng clan?
With the advent of the great world, the momentum of open and secret struggles between the Central Continent and various forces is intensifying, including the conflict between the Central Continent and the Yaozu.
Some of the monster clan want to go to war with the Great Xia Dynasty, and some want to ease the relationship with the Great Xia Dynasty and face the crisis of the world together, so the monster clan is divided into the main war faction and the main peace faction.
"I just don't know which faction the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan belong to."
Lu Yang heard that the Yaozu sent many spies to infiltrate the Central Continent, planning to make trouble secretly.
"Also, what do you do with them knowing they've done this?"
Speaking of this, the county guard showed an expression that he couldn't bear it, but had no choice but to do so.
The two Jin Danqi were taken aback for a moment, and then murderous intent appeared in their eyes.
"You mean... these days they work overtime, and they have to pay them three times their wages?"
"right."
The sheriff looked back, saw the eyes of the two Jin Danqi, and was stunned for a moment.
"Why do you have such eyes?"
The tone of the two Jin Danqis was a little resentful: "Master, when we were working the night shift, you never said that you would give us extra money, just like tonight."
Even if you don’t need to sleep during the Jindan period, we can’t use it up during the day and then use it at night, right?
My wife is still waiting under the covers.
Why do they work for nothing when others work overtime?
"... I will also process money for you."
"Master, what about the Phoenix Blood Stone?"
"Hmph, since it won't work in the dark, let's make it clear. You will pretend to be businessmen tomorrow, saying that the Phoenix Blood Stone is very rare, and you will spend a lot of money to buy it!"
"How much does it cost?"
"One million spirit stones!" The sheriff didn't believe it. This was a sale with a net profit of 500,000 spirit stones. Would the disciples of Daoist sect in the foundation establishment period be tempted?
The two Jindan monks showed hesitation.
"What's the matter, just say what you have to say."
"Master, that Daoist sect disciple may not lack this spirit stone."
"That's 1.5 million spirit stones!" The sheriff was furious, he didn't believe that 2 million spirit stones were not enough for the opponent to let go?
"Probably still not enough."
"Two million!"
"Still not enough."
The governor was furious: "Then tell me, how many spirit stones will the opponent let go! I don't believe that the opponent is only in the foundation building stage, how many spirit stones he can have, and he is not tempted to face two million spirit stones!"
"We heard that the other party is the eldest son of Meng."
Meng family and eldest son, these two words together mean the power and wealth that no one dares to mess with.
As the number one family in the Central Continent, the Meng family is well-known.
The county guard became even more angry when he heard the words, and he was not at all afraid of Meng Jingzhou's identity: "So what about Meng's eldest son, at worst, I will go and steal it myself tomorrow night!"
