It was a city with a strong jade culture. Lin Xuan thought about what gift would be suitable for Chen Xinqian's grandmother's birthday party, and decided to buy her a jade Buddha statue.

Upon hearing that it was related to the attack that day, Lin Xiaoyu turned pale instantly. It was obvious that a few days would not be enough to completely eliminate her fear.

"Brother, was the attack that day aimed at us?" Her little hands were shaking, and she relied heavily on Lin Xuan, actively inviting him to come to the warm house. The natural mortise and tenon structure of the flesh folds were perfectly matched with each other.

"Don't worry, your brother can handle it, and soon you will be able to handle it too." Lin Xuan patted her back lightly and comforted her in a soft voice, then began to transfer his cultivation into her body. Soon Xiaoyu felt a warm current, soft and tender as if she had no bones.

Xiaoyu's physical fragility was swept away, and she became stronger day by day. Now she can lift hundreds of kilograms, which is more and more in line with the requirements of the exercises.

Once she formally practices the technique to gather her magical power, she will undergo an astonishing transformation and will then have the ability to protect herself.

After lunch, Lin Xuan and Lin Xiaoyu dressed up and went to the Public Security Bureau together, not knowing what they would encounter.

At half past afternoon, the two got out of the car outside the Municipal Security Bureau. Lin Xiaoyu put her arm around Lin Xuan affectionately, entered the busy lobby, and showed her credentials to the front desk receptionist.

They were then led upstairs by the receptionist to a room on the third floor. They knocked on the door, which opened from the inside after a few seconds. The person who opened the door was a man in standard work clothes.

The man was burly and his eyes were sharp, but not threatening. The receptionist said, "Captain, I have brought the person you want."

He smiled and sent the receptionist away cutely, then looked at the two people in a slightly serious manner: "I guess you two are Mr. Lin and Ms. Lin?"

According to the files, Lin Xiaoyu was about the same age, so the captain of the Public Security Bureau addressed her as "Ms."

"Yes, you informed us because you want to investigate the rocket attack a few days ago?" Lin Xuan went straight to the point. He believed that the working atmosphere of the Public Security Bureau would be of this style.

"Mr. Lin, Ms. Lin, let's go into the room and talk." The captain squinted his eyes and chuckled, making way for them. It seemed that a meeting was going on in the room.

Huh, just as he walked half a step into the room, he suddenly felt a whistling sound on his left face, and the energy was locked. Xiaoyu didn't even react, so Lin Xuan snorted coldly and raised his hand, blocking his face with his arm.

Bang! He took a half step back. Xiaoyu was also stunned by the strong wind. Shouldn't the Public Security Bureau represent safety? How come they were being attacked while they were inside?

"Ah!" She screamed, but it was not a scream, it was just a sound of surprise.

Lin Xuan's arm was slightly numb. The attacker was quite strong. There was a graceful female security guard standing on both sides of the entrance. When he entered, she kicked him with her shin bone, hitting his arm hard.

After completing the kick attack, she calmly took two steps back, her eyes sparkling as she said, "You are very powerful. I am far inferior to you."

The female security guard is one of the special forces in the captain's team. She is strong and energetic, has bright blood and carries unparalleled functions. She is a capable member of the Public Security Bureau and can lift hundreds of pounds.

"How can you be like this! We were kind enough to cooperate with the Public Security Bureau's investigation, but you attacked us from behind!" Lin Xiaoyu was furious. After Lin Xuan was attacked, her impression of the Public Security Bureau fell to the bottom.

"Hehe, it's just a simple test. We won't let it go. Don't misunderstand, Ms. Lin." The captain quickly stepped forward to smooth things over and pushed the female team member aside.

"Let's get to the point as soon as possible to save each other's time." Lin Xuan shook his arm. Apart from some swelling and numbness, there was no other injury. The minor impact would disappear in a dozen seconds.

"Ahem," the captain said seriously, restraining his smile, "Mr. Lin, the man you killed that day, our Public Security Bureau found out that he was a member of an international professional killer team. He had committed some crimes in China. He attacked you that day. Does Mr. Lin have any clues or leads?"

In countries around the world, high-level officials or special levels of state are not blind. They understand the different sides of the world. Everyone knows it tacitly, and many things will not be said openly.

For example, all surveillance has been cut off in the conference room at this moment, and their conversation is now at a semi-confidential level.

The female security guard who had just launched the attack was now standing outside with the door closed, doing her nails out of boredom, but her eyes were alert to non-meeting participants in the corridor.

"A clue?" Lin Xuan frowned, his memory sank and rose and fell, constantly searching the memory corridor until it stopped at a considerable time ago.

"I do have some clues. A few dozen days ago, I was attacked by another killer at school and I killed him on the spot. Could it be revenge?" The captain said it was an international killer team, so why wasn't it a revenge attack by members of the same team?

Lin Xuan was surprised that the guys who died for the sake of profit would avenge their accomplices.

"What? The killer was killed dozens of days ago. How come our Security Bureau didn't find out?" The captain's face darkened. It's been so long since the incident and no one discovered it. Is the intelligence system useless?

"Well, I asked my friends to help clean up the traces. Maybe they did it too cleanly, so it's normal that no one noticed." Lin Xuan explained slowly, and then said, "I had a bad feeling that night. It's very likely that we are being watched by the remaining members of the assassin team. Does your Public Security Bureau have any solution?"

He himself is not afraid of being attacked, but he has friends and family around him who are very vulnerable, and he, as a lone wolf, cannot protect them.

The captain understood what he meant and immediately assured, "Mr. Lin's relatives and friends will be sent back to the Public Security Bureau to help take care of them and protect them from being threatened as much as possible."

The Public Security Bureau has an obligation to protect the public, and based on the street surveillance footage from that day, the power of this special person should not be underestimated. If something happens to his family or friends and he goes crazy, the Public Security Bureau will also have a headache and feel troubled.

Lin Xuan felt a little relieved now. He talked with the captain for a while, then left with his sister. When going downstairs, Lin Xiaoyu rolled her eyes at the female security guard with an unfriendly look.

10/24 Leave

I'm going to take a day off tonight. My mind is empty and I'm weak. Let me take a day off.

Chapter 18: Ninety-five thousand, what a rip-off!

The train arrived at the station at the scheduled time, stayed for more than ten minutes and then notified the passengers to depart. During these ten minutes, Lin Xuan and Lin Xiaoyu checked their tickets and got into the carriage.

This time they will travel south by car, with their final stop being Wuhe City in the south, a city with a strong jade culture, where they will personally participate in the entire process of making jade from raw stone to finished product.

In the evening, Lin Xuan and his sister got off at Wuhe Railway Station. As they walked out of the air-conditioned train station with a cool breeze, they immediately felt the slight heat from the south.

Even at this time of year, the weather in the south is only a little milder. The heat wave has receded, but shadows still cover the southern sky.

Both of them were not affected by the cold or heat. They wore short shirts and linked their arms. They stayed in a hotel near the train station for one night. They worked three times but covered themselves with a quilt completely. The quilt was tossing around because of the fierce fight inside. They had to be on guard against the hotel cameras and be on guard against others.

He infused his cultivation into Xiaoyu again. She fell into a deep sleep with sweat covering her shoulders and back. Lin Xuan covered her with a quilt and sat beside her to practice silently.

The dual cultivation instinct that he had awakened was used against his will to cultivate his sister. Every time there was a storm, he lost a little bit of his cultivation. After repeatedly practicing to consolidate his foundation, his progress slowed down by more than three points.

Lin Xuan felt that it was okay, it was worth it to be able to guide Xiaoyu onto the path of cultivation.

The next morning, they woke up. Xiaoyu served them carefully. Lin Xuan supported her hair and gently pressed her little head. Her spirits were instantly sublimated. The sister's throat rolled and she ran to the bathroom to rinse her mouth.

After breakfast, they both set out to look for jade in Wuhe City. Wuhe City has a strong jade culture and jade transactions can be seen everywhere in the city. There is even a large-scale jade gambling street about a dozen miles away, which attracts tourists from all over the country to experience it.

Today's target is not the so-called large gambling stone street. The gambling stone street is full of kilograms of marble, which have been screened by countless hands in the industry. Almost all of them are the worst of the worst. Tourists can satisfy their desire by selling them for a few hundred or two hundred yuan, or even broken stones picked up from some unknown corner of the mountains.

Unable to get the desired results there, he and his sister went directly to the gambling stone agency, where there were many people in the industry selling clear or semi-clear materials, or materials with windows or without windows. Although they were several levels more expensive, at least they could buy the real thing.

After many twists and turns, they found an agency in the morning. The agency was run by a woman in her thirties and several male workers.

"Brother, is it too expensive?" Now Lin Xiaoyu knew exactly the purpose of Lin Xuan's trip. He wanted to get jade.

"Do what you can." Lin Xuan subconsciously supported his waist. Although his parents were adoptive parents, they had never treated him badly. After several years of conscious savings, he now had tens of thousands of cash in his hands.

But the gambling stone circle is a deep pit. Even if you invest tens of thousands of dollars into it, not even a single splash will be made. The most urgent task is to find the stone you like from a gambling stone intermediary first.

They were lucky enough to find the first gambling stone agency that had a complete range of material types and styles. They could see sand-free material, Houjiang material, and material from several major domestic and foreign mining sites. Some had a gelatinous icy mist texture, outstanding water quality, or bright emerald green color, which emitted a fluorescent green light under the light.

No matter which one was better in terms of water quality or color, Lin Xuan knew that it was beyond his ability to handle, so he just took a symbolic look, shone a light on it, and looked for the stone he liked.

Lin Xiaoyu doesn't know much about jade. She just thinks the colors look beautiful when the light is on, but they instantly become ordinary when the light is removed. At least it is difficult to distinguish the color spots on the unprocessed raw stone with the naked eye. That is a technical job for people in the industry.

In fact, Lin Xuan only had a vague understanding of it. He knew that jade was about quality, water, texture, color, etc., and only when coupled with a fantastic story, and met a buyer who liked it, would it shine with its brilliant value.

The flashlight taps on the stone, creating the sound of metal hitting iron. Jade is hard in texture, and you can appreciate it by holding it in your hand and observing it.

After more than ten minutes, Lin Xuan was surprisingly fast and decisively picked out a piece of cut stone. It was not big in size and the water quality was average. From the cut surface, the texture inside was just bean-sized and the quality was average. If it was worse, it would degenerate into oily bluestone or marble.

What is eye-catching is its color. The cross-section is impressive, with the inner jade flesh being bright and warm green, which occupies one third, and the other two thirds being white flesh, with a bit of purple flowing between the white and green.

Originally, the color purple is very dependent on the quality of the jade. The glutinous type is about the same, the glutinous ice type does not lose value, the ice type purple is of considerable value, and the bean type also has deviations among the bean types, so the value of this purple is low.

But this is exactly the reason why Lin Xuan likes it. If it were more valuable, he wouldn’t be able to afford it!

So he immediately communicated with the agent in the store. The female agent in her thirties was stunned, and several male workers also opened their eyes wide.

At most, the customer has only been in for about ten minutes. How could he have picked out the stone he liked in such a short time?

In the past, other people in the industry would often come to the store to research, and after confirming that they liked something, they would come to the store the next day to discuss the transaction. But they had no impression of this young man. He must be new. Didn’t he need to research him first?

"Sister, please name a price. We are in a hurry." Lin Xuan held the palm-sized stone and negotiated the price with the female agent.

“Ninety-five thousand?” The female agent tried to quote a price, which was the first-hand price the owner had agreed with her before listing the item for sale.

"Too expensive." Lin Xuan frowned, making the female agent nervous. She put down the stone and pretended to leave.

"Hey, hey, hey, sir, we can still negotiate the price. Don't be in such a hurry to leave!" The female agent hurriedly tried to keep Lin Xuan. The price quoted just now was only the first-hand price. The owner of the goods had said that he could negotiate a lower price at that time. If the deal was successful, she would get a commission, and she didn't want to miss the business.

Lin Xuan picked up the stone again and said unceremoniously: "This stone is not big, and the quality is too low. I'm asking for 95,000. I can't rip you off like this!"

The female agent coughed twice, her face not red, and said politely: "Then please name a price, and we can negotiate after the deal is done."

She murmured in her heart, and couldn't help but suspect that this young man was just a fool. How could he do business like this and then just walk away without even talking?

"Then you can't quote such a high price, aren't you driving customers away? Look at this stone, the water quality is not good, the texture is rough, the purple color is a minus point, and it's not big, how can you expect a loss of 95,000!" Lin Xuan was not polite and scolded him.

"Ten thousand!" He stretched out a finger and cut it to the ankle. The female agent's face suddenly changed, and the male worker next to her had a strange look on his face. You are bargaining too hard, are you evenly matched?

"No, no, ten thousand is too low. The owner will definitely not agree." The female agent shook her head and haggled over the price with Lin Xuan. Lin Xiaoyu was stunned, witnessing her brother's eloquent side.

Two hours later, after much tugging and communicating with the owner, they finally bought the palm-sized stone for 16,000 yuan.

The quality of the jade is actually not completely useless, it's just that the size is too small. If it were one of those huge pieces weighing hundreds of kilograms or tons at a public auction, it could still sell for a sky-high price if it were made into bracelets. But that has nothing to do with Lin Xuan.

Sixteen thousand was actually a bit too high, but the owner refused to budge, so he had no choice but to give in and offer a higher price. If he bought this palm-sized stone at this price, even if there were no cracks or flaws inside, he would still make a small loss when he sold it.

"Let's go back first." Lin Xuan and Lin Xiaoyu went back home. The stone they bought for 16,000 yuan would not even make a splash in the gambling stone industry. It was just a small bauble. Even if they made it into a jade Buddha and gave it to Chen Xinqian's grandmother as a birthday gift, it would not be presentable because the person who bought it was of very high status.

At night, after nourishing Xiaoyu and coaxing her to sleep, Lin Xuan held the raw stone he had found during the day in his hand and refined it with his magic power, causing mysterious changes to its internal texture! He had already made plans!

Chapter 19: The Foundation is Complete, Birthday Banquet Day

The magic power has all kinds of mysteries. It can be used to smelt an ordinary raw stone found from an intermediary. In one day, it causes unspeakable changes inside it. After the reversal of the innate mother's womb, the jadeization becomes deeper.

After more than twenty hours of refining, the seed heads have jumped from extremely poor bean varieties to sticky ice, with transparent gelatin and hazy mist. The fineness of the flesh has been raised to a higher level, and the dark color parts have disappeared, turning into warm colors but not tender. It is resistant to mutation and the number of defects has been reduced.

The green color has spread to occupy more parts, the white meat has become more crystal clear, and the most special thing is the purple color, which has become more elegant as the water head and meat quality have improved. The whole stone has changed beyond recognition and its value has skyrocketed!

If you buy it for 16,000 yuan, even if there are no flaws or cracks inside, it will be a loss if it is made into a small bracelet. However, after being smelted with magic power, with its delicate base of glutinous ice water and deepened purple color, it will be put back on the market for at least tens of thousand yuan. Lin Xuan is not sure how much it is exactly.

Pop, the silk liquid sticks together.

Lin Xuan watered Xiaoyu and taught her cultivation. Xiaoyu suddenly felt very unusual. She could clearly feel the blood flowing in her veins and the inexplicable power it carried!

Lin Xuan also noticed it, and couldn't wait for his sister to help him clean up. He took her delicate wrist and looked at her carefully, and said with a smile: "Not bad, sister Xiaoyu, the initial foundation has been laid, and we can enter the new stage!"

Lin Xiaoyu was extremely happy and said happily, "Really? Can I become as powerful as my husband's brother?"

She has personally witnessed and experienced how powerful her good brother is.

"Well, you can officially start practicing in the evening. When you condense the first strand of magic power, you will experience a new transformation."

After several days of cultivation, considering the difference in cultivation between them, the difference between the seventh level of Qi Refining and mortals, or the seventh level of Qi Refining actively transmitting magic power to mortals, her body had already undergone amazing changes.

There is no longer any sign of weakness or fragility of a woman. She carries more than 200 kilograms of strength, her breathing is long and her strength is endless. Her flesh and blood are fresh and she is immune to all diseases.

Especially since she had just sensed her own body, she had achieved the cultivation requirements that Lin Xuan had told her.

Inexplicable fragments of memory flashed through his mind, and he thought to himself that the admission standard of this world seemed to be slightly lower? Compared with which admission standard was it slightly lower? He couldn't say.

After simply tidying up their appearance, the two went out again. With a stone worth at least tens of thousands of yuan, Lin Xuan felt that it was enough to be used for the birthday party of Chen Xinqian's grandmother and no one would criticize it.

Moreover, time is not sufficient. If you don’t make a decision early, you won’t be able to get it out when the time comes.

They contacted an active sculptor in Wuhe City and spent three thousand yuan to customize a jade Buddha to be worn around the neck. The sculptor also enjoyed carving that very unique material.

Lin Xuan discovered that there was a special magical aura left in the material, and the whole stone became extremely warm. Is it appropriate to describe it as being consecrated? Wearing it all year round has many benefits, such as prolonging life, eliminating diseases and expelling evil spirits.

Judging from this, the whole piece of material will definitely cost more than ten thousand yuan.

The stone is handed over to the sculptor for carving. Since the subject matter is clearly customized jade Buddha, the design process is saved and the goods can be received in just two or three days.

During the days of waiting for the finished product, Lin Xuan intensified his efforts to teach Xiaoyu about cultivation, massaging and soothing her muscles and bones, and guiding her to formally embark on the path of cultivation amid her cries of pain.

But it is unknown how long it will take to condense the first strand of magic power. Before that, her physical fitness will continue to grow steadily for quite some time.

On the afternoon of the third day, the two went to the sculptor's workplace to pick up the finished product. The sculptor praised the quality of the stone again and again, and said that he had performed exceptionally well as if with divine help, and carved out a very spiritual jade Buddha that was lifelike.

Lin Xuan took it in his hand and kneaded it. It was warm, delicate and nourishing. It would definitely be good to wear it on the body for a long time. A magical aura lingered inside for a long time.

When Lin Xiaoyu saw the finished product, she liked it very much and played with it in her hand, but she did not wear it around her neck without permission. She knew that it was a birthday gift for an old lady and was not suitable to be worn around the neck.

"Let's go back." Lin Xuan hugged Xiaoyu's slender waist tightly and took the train back to Sanyuan City. There were only two days left until the birthday.

He and his sister were extremely gentle and passionate at home, with sweet sweat dripping down their faces and clear water flowing. Traces of them could be seen everywhere in the kitchen, bathroom, room, and windowsill.

The next morning, Lin Xuan woke up and admired the beautiful belly of his younger sister. He couldn't stop eating the pink and wet belly, which was so delicious and fragrant.

He put on a formal suit and woke her up to change clothes. Xiaoyu took out the student uniform she wore at the party, a white short-sleeved shirt and a light and watery pleated skirt.

Chen Xinqian contacted Lin Xuan at the right time, told him the location of the birthday party, and sent him an electronic invitation. The focus was not on the form and material of the invitation. The birthday party would arrange a special person to verify it to ensure that no outsiders would sneak into the party.

Dozens of minutes later, Lin Xuan and Lin Xiaoyu arrived hand in hand at the transition area between the suburbs and the city of Sanyuan City. There was a luxurious manor here, covering an area of ​​100 acres, divided into the main house and the side house.

Lin Xuan showed the invitation letter to the security guard, and after confirmation, he and Xiaoyu were let into the manor. On the way in, they saw many luxury cars, ranging from millions to tens of millions. It seemed unusual for them to come by taxi.

Therefore, when he walked into the manor, he noticed the contemptuous looks of the passing guests and thought that he and his sister were invited by the guests of the birthday party just to join in the fun.

In fact, Lin Xuan also felt that he was just a mixed-up person. He and his sister were not people who belonged to that circle at all.
