Chapter 444 Fire Pearl
According to the seven-day deadline, He Chen and others returned to Fengdu, and the plane landed. They had been waiting for the pool on one side. They were very relieved. He Chen and the others came back on time, which showed that this matter would not develop in the direction he was worried about.
"Thank you for your hard work. How's the situation?" Feng Chi ran to the front of the plane and asked anxiously.
"At last, I didn't go for nothing. With what you got, Director Feng, you can pay a few more yuan." He Chen smiled. In the past two days, they have been in contact with Fengchi. They know that with the previous three pieces, they have got a total of 26 pieces of good jade, which are of slightly poor quality, and hundreds of pieces have been shipped.
"That's good, that's good!" Feng Chi smiled excitedly. There was nothing. He was happier than he heard the news. For a moment, he felt that the weather was much sunny. On the second day of the ghost city, Mingshan was surrounded by a special war regiment. No ordinary people could break through this blockade line and enter Mingshan, but it didn't mean that no ordinary people entered. In famous mountains, these ghost cities have not thrown their bodies out. In the past six days, there have been dozens of corpses thrown in the ghost city every day. These people are no longer Chinese, but of all of all colors.
The situation of famous mountains has spread all over the world over time. All kinds of people have flocked to Fengdu. Although the identities of people entering Fengdu are different, Fengchi and they know that these people can be roughly divided into three categories. One is the most normal "curiosity", curious people who do not know whether they are alive or dead. The second is journalists. When such a big thing happened in the mountain, there will never be fewer reporters in the news media. The third category is the secret staff of various countries. Many of these people, with their own ability, dodged the blockade line and entered the ghost city. Finally, they entered vertically, came out horizontally, and were thrown out.
Although they have lost the lockdown line these days, it is not easy. They are busy dealing with the death of people from various countries. These people enter China with normal identities. Most of them are tourists and company employees. For this sudden death, we have to find a reason, although everyone understands that What's going on, but some lies still have to be told.
In a warehouse guarded by heavy troops, He Chen saw the jade sent from above. The small fists were the size, the big ones were half-human tall, and the small ones were basically polished, and some were even carved. The big ones were almost all raw stones. He Chen first swept through the area with a slightly poor quality and sighed helplessly, "These It can't be used. Director Feng, you can take care of it.
Feng Chi said, "The leader said that these jades, whether they can be used or not, are not less."
"Ha ha! Your leaders are quite generous. He Chen smiled and knew that this was a reward for him to take good things. Although the old men were not fair, they were fair. He Chen didn't say anything more and accepted these things.
Among the twenty-six pieces of best jade, He Chen found a very helpless problem and said to Feng Chi, "There are only 11 pieces in it that can be used!"
Feng Chi was shocked and asked anxiously, "What should I do?"
He Chen looked at the jade and suddenly smiled and said, "There are big and small. Let's cut everything from big to small. This should be enough."
Feng Chi was directly dumbfounded. He didn't understand a problem until now. He Chen didn't seem to have told him from beginning to end how big the jade he needed was. Look at Ji Bing waving a few swords to cut a few pieces of jade. The cut surface was smoother than the polished one, and the bottom of his heart He was secretly surprised that he had seen the sword in Ji Bing's hand, but he didn't expect that it would be so sharp. He didn't have it in his impression that he could untie the jade so easily.
"1,2,3,..." He Chen counted it and said with a smile, "There is still one more piece. Director Feng, what you just said, these are all mine. Don't ask me again."
Feng Chi smiled and said, "The leaders have said something, and of course there is less left."
"The matter has finally been solved. I will send it to the ghost king later, and our matter will be over." He Chen pretended to be relieved. Ma Xiner looked at it and laughed secretly. The ghost king wanted the size of the match box. He Chen prepared according to the size of his fist. How much corruption did she have? But she didn't expose He Chen's thoughts. She couldn't wait for He Chen to be more greedy.
He Chen and Ma Xiner carried the box and walked into the cathode Taixuan array with Ji Bing and the witch. Feng Chi watched the four people disappear in front of his eyes and smiled bitterly. It seemed that the task assigned to him by his superior could not be completed.
He Chen and Ma Xiner met and smiled. It's not impossible to bring Fengchi in. It's just that there are tricks in their boxes and they can't bring him in. They can only cut off his idea with the excuse that "the cathode Taixuan array is now unstable, and it's dangerous for him to come in". He wants to visit the ghost city, so he can only wait until later. He Chen and others I also understand that this should be the meaning above. You can't always listen to them about everything. It takes a few insiders to see it with their own eyes, so that it can count.
Ma Xiner asked, "Have you used our inventory?"
"No, the country is very rich. It's my inventory, not ours." He Chen smiled and corrected Ma Xiner's words.
"Is there a difference between yours and mine?" Ma Xiner asked angrily.
"Of course, mine is mine, and yours is yours. If you want mine, I have to agree. If I want yours, you have to agree, right?" He Chen said.
"Meng Po met the city owner, the prince and the two girls." Meng Po's sudden appearance interrupted the conversation between He Chen and Ma Xiner.
Ma Xiner said, "Meng Po is very welcome. Take us to see the Lord of the Ghost King."
"Four people, this way, please." Meng Po made a gesture of invitation. The gray fog in front of He Chen and others directly appeared a bright passage. The two little ghosts took the box in He Chen's hands, followed He Chen and others, and entered the ghost city. There was no need for He Chen and others to carry the box again.
Meng Po said, "In the past few days, we are looking forward to the arrival of the four."
Ma Xiner said, "We also want to come here early, but there are too few best jade in the world now, but we don't disgrace our lives and finally get what we need."
"That's good, that's good. These days, we have learned through some souls. The world is worrying now. I didn't expect that the ten-thousand-year seal of the ghost city turned the world to become like this." Meng Po said.
Ma Xiner smiled bitterly and said, "I can't help it!"
The witch suddenly asked curiously, "Brother Meng, since you are a man, why don't you call me Meng Gong?"
Meng Po turned her head and smiled at the witch and said, "My previous life was a woman, but when I occupied the body, it happened to be the most suitable man, and he became a man. The world is impermanent, and it's a trick."
"Oh!" The witch nodded with understanding.
Soon, He Chen and others arrived at the Senluo Hall. In front of the Senluo Hall, the ghost king stood at the door and waited for He Chen and others. As soon as he saw He Chen and his group coming, the ghost king hurried forward and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
He Chen smiled and said, "It's not good. We just catch up at the right time. Let's give a share if we can."
"If all the people in the world have the mind of a prince, that's fine. Please." The ghost king smiled bitterly. These days, he has learned a lot of things. Although he has not seen the world with his own eyes, he also knows what it is like. There is a kind of helplessness in his heart. People's hearts have become worse than before.
"What are you doing?" Seeing He Chen open the big box, there was a small box inside, and the ghost king asked doubtfully.
"Hear people's eyes and ears." He Chen smiled and opened the small one, and there was a smaller one inside. It was not until the fourth that the jade the size of a matchbox was exposed.
He Chen asked, "Ghost King, let's see if these jades meet the requirements."
The ghost king took 981 pieces of jade in his hand and felt it, with a trace of helplessness on his face and said, "It can be used, but it is not as good as before. With the quality of this jade, it can last for up to three months. After three months, some of these jades will be automatically turned into ashes."
"The cathode Taixuan array is really consuming. Lord of the ghost king, please rest assured. We will try our best to collect this kind of jade. Three months should be enough to find a replacement." He Chen smiled helplessly. The situation was really as he expected. The quality of jade would affect time.
"Then there will be more princes and girls here." The ghost king hugged his fist and thanked He Chen.
"The owner of the ghost king is polite. I don't know if this thing can be recognized by the ghost king?" He Chen took out a piece of ink jade the size of a thumb and asked.
The ghost king was shocked and said excitedly, "Mo Yu, you are not a strange person in the world. There is such a thing. It is very beneficial for you to keep this Mo Yu by your side."
"Thank you for the guidance of the ghost king. Is this helpful to the ghost king city owner?" He Chen asked.
"Yes!" The ghost king nodded and said with a smile, "The wonders of the world are won by predestined people. I dare not ask for them."
"I am predestined to Mo Yu, but also to the ghost king. This is my thank-you gift to the ghost king. To tell the ghost king, the three pieces of wood you gave me are of great use to me." He Chen smiled and took out another piece of ink jade of the same size from his pocket and gave it to the ghost king.
"Thank you, my son." The ghost king glanced at He Chen and took Mo Yu with excitement in his eyes. "The three pieces of wood are useless to us. I can't be too stingy with such a big gift. The prince and a few girls wait a moment."
After saying that, the ghost king hurried into the apse. After a while, he came out with a small box in his arms and opened the box. A red light flashed in the box, but disappeared in a flash. Seeing the things in the box, He Chen had an unconcealable excitement in his heart and exclaimed, "Fire beads!"
"The prince actually knows this thing, which is really bigger than I expected. This thing is not a thing in our ghost city, but a relic of the Fire Cloud Hall many years ago. According to the metaphor of the true king of Fire, this thing should be given to a predestined and virtuous person. Since the prince is predestined to me, and the prince is a virtuous person, this The thing was given to the prince, and I also fulfilled the last wish of my ancestors. The ghost king couldn't help but think that according to his understanding of the world, He Chen should not know this thing. Unexpectedly, he recognized it at a glance. It can be seen that He Chen thought unusually. If he hadn't seen the message of the real king of Fire, he wouldn't have known what it was at all.
"Then I'm not polite. If you know anything about the fire spirit pearl ghost king, I hope you don't hesitate to tell me." He Chen took the box, holding the fire beads in his hand, and felt gentle.
The ghost king said with a smile, "I can't tell how many years ago. By chance, I found the cave where the Fire Zhenjun practiced. Only this box and a piece of bamboo slips were left in the cave. On the bamboo slips, there was only 'the catastrophe of heaven and earth, the Fire Zhenjun left fire beads to give to future generations'. There was nothing else, in Not long after I finished reading it, Zhu Jian turned into ashes. After a long period of research, I found that the fire beads did not belong to me. I can't control some energy in the fire beads. It seems that I am not the real predestined person.
He Chen said, "The five elements of spiritual beads are three out of five. The world seems to be different from before."
"Some things are really different, but the only one that is the same is dominated by people." The ghost king was indescribly shocked. Although he didn't know exactly what the five elements of spiritual beads were, he had guessed that they must be the five world wonders of gold spirit beads, wood spirit beads, water spirit beads, fire spirit beads and earth spirit beads. After searching for hundreds of years, he had never seen anything else. He Chen had seen the other two, or those two were there. In He Chen's hand.
"The ghost king is right. No matter how the world changes, it is still people who dominate everything." He Chen said with a smile.
The ghost king also smiled and said, "Son, don't call me the lord of the city, just call me the ghost king."
"Don't call me prince, the ghost king. It seems that I haven't introduced myself yet. My surname is He Chen. The ghost king just calls me Xiaohe or Xiaochen. These two are Ji Bing and the witch." He Chen smiled, and then completely introduced several of them to the ghost king.
The ghost king said, "After understanding these days, I find that people like to call this young and that young people by their surnames now. I'll call them Gongzi He Shao."
"Yes, should we replace the jade of the formation? If we run out of energy and turn it into ashes, it will be a waste." He Chen nodded and reminded.
"Ha ha! I didn't find that He Shao is such a thrifty person, so let's change it. The ghost king laughed.
He Chen smiled and said, "If you can save it, you can save it. The things that you don't like are all good things in our eyes."
He Chen's piece of soul jade was exchanged for the great sincerity of the ghost king. He Chen and others changed the jade together. By the way, they simply told He Chen about the cathode Taixuan array. He Chen and Ma Xiner listened with a little understanding, but Ji Bing listened very seriously and secretly remembered something in his heart. The ghost king told He Chen. Their method is to walk in the array, and it is absolutely impossible to tell He Chen the method of breaking the array.
The witch was confused and didn't understand it at all. She sighed, "Your ancients are more awesome than they are now."
"That's right, the wisdom of the ancients is very high." He Chen said proudly.
Looking at the replaced jade, He Chen said, "These jades are definitely the best of the best, and they will definitely be sold at a good price."
"The jade that can be used as a battlestone is definitely a rare best in the world. Next time you change it, you have to come a few days earlier." The ghost king smiled. He couldn't see through who He Chen was. He was greedy and direct, but the generous was even more amazing. Mo Yu sent him, and he seemed to care about these useless jades.
"Actually, I can't think about it, but I can't. It's early, so I don't waste these things." He Chen shrugged his shoulders helplessly. After replacing all the jade with the ghost king, they left. Looking at the gray famous mountain, He Chen felt that he would not come more in the future. The connection with the ghost city was mainly the responsibility of Ma Xiner, the deputy city owner, otherwise he would be useless as soon as he came.
It has been decided above that the famous mountain will be turned into a military forbidden zone, and something is already under construction. Once the construction is completed, there will be heavy guards here. It will be difficult for ordinary people to cross the minefield. As for themselves to die, they can't control it.
Seeing that He Chen and others came out with the box again, Feng Chi asked worriedly, "Young He, can't jade work?"
He Chen said, "Ok, the replacement has been completed. This is the replaced waste. I'll take it back to find someone to carve and sell it for some money. It's also a waste to put this thing in the ghost city. At that time, I'll ask someone to send two pieces to Director Feng. Although it's waste, the jade is very good. It can be said that it's the best."
Feng Chi hurriedly said, "Thank you, He Shao. I don't want this thing. As long as it can be more peaceful here, I will be relieved."
"Anjing." He Chen smiled and said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for Fengdu to be at peace in the future. For such a special place, there will always be people who want to know something about it. We can be ordinary people, but some people can't stop it."
"What He Shao said is, but our main task is to reduce the death of ordinary people. As for international friends and those who have the ability to break through our blockade, we can only pray for them, hoping that they have the ability to enter and exit the ghost city freely like He Shao." In Feng Chi's words, there was a trace of compliment to He Chen, but this was his actual idea. It was not against his will. There were many people who entered the ghost city, but only He Chen and the four of them could stand in and walk out.
"Ha ha! Director Feng, you look up to us. If we hadn't entered the ghost city as soon as possible, the ghost king would have gone through the back door for us. I'm afraid we'll have to lie out now. He Chen smiled and said modestly that with the ability of the four of them, even after the cathode Taixuan array was opened, he still had the strength to break into the ghost city.
He and Feng Chi said a few more words. He Chen and the others got on the bus and returned to the hotel and asked Feng Chi to arrange a plane for them. He Chen decided that they would return to Haizhou tomorrow. He was a little worried about his family. Lin Ling would report the situation to him every morning. These nights, the family and Cangyunling are not very lively, although not What's wrong, but according to Lin Ling, there were several good skills, most of whom were caught by her, but there were two smart people who could slip away from her hands, which made her very unwilling.
