Chen Lin: "I'm glad I could help. Unfortunately, Dan Shu ran away and left a jade token with me. Brother, please send someone to get it when you have time."
Jing Yuan: "No problem, I'll let Qing Zhu get it. Don't worry about Dan Shu escaping. I know what they want to do and have been prepared."
Chen Lin: "Brother, you are wise!"
Jing Yuan: "My dear brother, you are so powerful!"
When he looked up, Chen Lin had returned to Changletian Square, but he did not see Qingque's shadow here.
What about people?
Chen Lin saw a card hall not far away and walked in without thinking. As soon as he got inside, he saw Qingque standing by with his hands folded, watching people playing cards with relish.
"Old Chen, is it done now? You're pretty fast."
"I'm not fast." Chen Lin replied with a frown.
Qingque greeted a few acquaintances and then went out with Chen Lin.
"Don't you want to play a few games? I see you're itching to do it."
"There's no need to get started. Watching others play cards is also fun." Qingque shook his head, pulled Chen Lin's sleeve and said, "Old Chen, come with me. I'll take you to buy something."
As she spoke, she led Chen Lin towards the commercial street.
"shopping?"
"Yes, your friends are interested in Yu Zhao. I will pick two to give to them when I return to the inn."
Qingque walked into a jade accessories store and leaned over the counter to carefully select. "Mr. Walter is interested in the Emperor Yuan Qiongyu, so I will buy him a pair. The second thing is to buy you a normal set of Xianzhou clothing. The robe you had before doesn't look good, and the style is outdated, so you shouldn't wear it anymore."
Chen Lin was puzzled: "Isn't it good that this happened?"
"Aren't you hot in this hot weather? Even if you're not hot, I feel hot just looking at you... Boss, this, this, and these two, pack them all for me."
As he was talking, Qingque picked out the jade signs. After paying, he handed a jade bracelet-style jade sign to Chen Lin. "Here, Lao Chen, this is for you. I'll help you put it on. When there's a chance, I'll ask someone I know at the Craftsmanship Division to carve a few more formations into it for you. It will have more functions."
The bracelet was a little long and needed to be wrapped around twice before it could be worn on the wrist, but Qingque was very experienced in wearing jade bracelets and helped Chen Lin put it on in no time.
During this time, it was inevitable that their hands would rub against each other, and Qingque secretly thought that Lao Chen's skin was really smooth...
"What is the function of this thing?" Chen Lin thought the bracelet was quite pretty.
Qingque hummed confidently: "The main function of this jade omen is to pray for blessings, and secondly, it has the function of monitoring health. It can be like this... Look, I can see your heart rate and breathing rate."
Chen Lin stared blankly at the words and numbers appearing on the jade, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
What kind of Xianzhou version smart sports watch is this?
"As for Di Yuan Qiong Yu, I have a friend who sells branded clothes. I can just contact her and ask her to send them to the inn. I will pick out some clothes for you. Don't refuse. I will pay for your room and meals for the next few days."
After arranging the itinerary, Qingque pulled Chen Lin to the clothing store next door, not caring whether Chen Lin wanted to buy anything or not, as long as she wanted to buy it for him.
After more than an hour of this, Chen Lin and Qingque finally returned to the inn. At this time, Walter, Sanyueqi and the others had also returned, and they were sitting in the living room discussing something.
Chapter 173: Do you think I dare not kill you?
Xianzhou is a dark and secluded space. A cold and dead silence permeates the air, and the few lights reflect the few shadows in the area.
The candlelight flickered, and it was the corner of a person's clothes waving past in front of him.
The jailer straightened his body, and the armor on his chest jingled.
The man walked to a room of prisoners, then stopped and raised his hand. The jailer behind him bowed and left.
"cough……"
Jing Yuan stood in front of the door with his hands behind his back, looking through the iron fence at the figure tied to the corner, and coughed lightly: "How could the billionaire wanted criminal of Mingdong Company be lured out and arrested so easily... I'm curious about one thing, why are there more and more baits on the fish hooks. The baits are either eaten up by the fish or the quality is not up to standard and they are scattered as soon as they enter the water, so how can there be more and more baits? Right?"
"As soon as the Star Core Hunters arrived, Luofu's Star Core disaster broke out. I suspect that you are related to the Star Core. Apart from breaking some inappropriate rules, I am quite satisfied with your handling of the situation."
"I never thought that when I scattered the bait, another bait would come up."
"Or do you think I dare not kill you?"
Normally, no matter what the superior-subordinate relationship was with the person in front of him, Jing Yuan's tone was usually very relaxed and gentle. But this time, his tone became increasingly cold as he spoke further.
Kafka in prison still looked at Jingyuan with a smile on her face, not caring at all that her power had been completely blocked. She was like a lamb to be slaughtered, without any ability to resist.
It seems that he has long been accustomed to going to jail.
"I will tell Xianzhou what I should say when the time comes. Now is not the time yet. General Luofu, one of the five brave warriors on the cloud, I'm afraid he won't be so nervous when he comes to see me, an unarmed prisoner."
"Forget it." Jing Yuan turned around and said coldly, "If this is all you want to tell me, then there's probably nothing to talk about between us."
"Is there nothing to say about the future fate of the Immortal Boat?"
Kafka smiled, her charming eyes full of teasing, "Even if a storm sweeping the universe comes, the Immortal Boat will be gradually torn into pieces and turned into the dust of history, you are not interested? You and your successor can't escape the storm, and no force can protect anything under the premise of being alone. Even so, you don't want to listen?"
Jing Yuan closed his eyes, but stopped walking away.
"Do you think I should believe the crazy talk of a prisoner?"
Kafka smiled and said to herself, "The tightly closed door has been reopened, and the ancient existence has opened up an unknown nebula in it, and that is the mouth of the storm. Treasures richer than gold and silver, and things that companies with countless arsenals would shudder at, are all in the mouth of the storm. This may be a reshuffle of the entire universe, or it may be the result of the entire universe returning to chaos. Whether Xianzhou is willing to believe it or not, the hammer that breaks fate is in the hands of others, but the Star Core Hunter is always a slave to fate."
"..."
Jingyuan turned his back to the room where Kafka was imprisoned and remained silent.
"As for whether Xianzhou believes it or not, I don't care. The star core has nothing to do with us. We came to Xianzhou just for other things. The star core... hehe, it's just an opportunity, an opportunity for Xianzhou to become a helper in resisting the storm."
"Oh, you are so brave." Jing Yuan snorted coldly.
"Oh my, these things are not written in the script, but I was told before I left that I could improvise. For both public and private reasons, I want to tell you something in advance. It's up to you to decide what to do." Kafka put away the smile on her face and said word by word, "When the storm sweeps in, he will become the most critical variable."
In the secret cell, Kafka's voice floated back and forth between the dark walls, as did the creaking sound of the iron door closing.
The footsteps grew farther and farther away, and the cell fell into dead silence once again.
Jing Yuan, who was heavy-hearted, walked out of the prison and looked at the message sent by Fu Xuan on his mobile phone with an expressionless face, as if he was considering something.
Fu Xuan: "General, the various formations of the Taibu Division have been repaired. The Qiongguan formation can be repaired as early as tomorrow night. As a general, you must be present for the interrogation. You are not allowed to ask for leave with strange excuses."
Jing Yuan: "I knew this little thing wouldn't be difficult for Mr. Fu. The formation is so complicated that no one in Luofu knows it except Mr. Fu. We have to rely on Mr. Fu's unique skills!"
Fu Xuan quickly replied, "That's good to know."
"By the way, I will personally notify my beloved brother and the train crew, and by the way, I will also ask a certain fortune teller to get back to work. The general has a lot of paperwork, so I won't bother him."
"..." Jing Yuan looked at the message on his phone and sighed. "Let's put aside what the future storm will be like. The storm on the Immortal Boat has not yet been resolved. I don't know if the Starry Sky Train received the video that was released, and he didn't see it. If he saw it... would he be willing to set foot on this land?"
I twisted the yellow fallen leaves in front of the door into my palms. It was afternoon, but the wind was extremely cold.
Jingyuan muttered softly as he walked forward.
"There is no need for the Star Core Hunter to lie. Even if he does lie, he can still get the truth. If it wasn't the Star Core Hunter who brought the Star Core, then who else could it be..."
"The timing was too immature to tear the relationship apart. The secret teachings of the Medicine King must have had a backer to counteract this. He was so impatient that he couldn't control his temper. If the intelligence from the front line is correct, the pharmacist's lackeys have not set foot on the Immortal Boat. Who could have given the scoundrel the confidence to leave the dark side..."
"The Star Core, the Star Core Hunter, the Medicine King's Secret, the Medicine King's Secret's backing... and other guys who haven't shown up yet. The Star Core is related to one of them, but there are still two pieces of the puzzle missing."
"Brother, what do you think...haha, it's a good question."
Ever since the planetary nuclear crisis broke out and Jing Yuan met Chen Lin, he liked to pull his brother over to discuss any troublesome issues. The two of them never mentioned the agreement and always did things that were supposed to be done as an alliance.
Chen Lin was always able to analyze the key points from the clues he had in a very short time, or point out where and how to start looking for a solution. His tricky angles often gave Jing Yuan a refreshing feeling.
Just as the secret teachings of the King of Medicine were about to take action, this was the breakthrough point that Chen Lin found from the Immortal Boat.
If you advance, you can force it out of the water; if you retreat, you can grasp its movements and intelligence; if all else fails, you can attack it while it is swimming.
Jing Yuan still remembered that one day when Chen Lin was playing chess, he said that the Medicine King Secret was just a pawn. If he moved forward so boldly, it would mean that this pawn would have a chance to be exchanged for a more precious chess piece to expand his advantage.
Going undercover to collect intelligence is a very bad idea. The real purpose is to test whether other hidden forces are connected to the person behind the secret of the King of Medicine.
Otherwise, he would not have handed over the precious military token, just to be able to pour a bucket of oil the moment the fire started.
When the fire started and everything was in sight, if there were no fires elsewhere, it would mean that the interests of the Medicine King Secret and other forces were not the same.
Xianzhou only needs to throw away the cauldron of the star core appropriately, and the secret of the King of Medicine will no longer have a place to stay in Luofu, and will become a drowning dog that everyone wants to beat.
Public opinion was overwhelmingly one-sided and the army was full of fighting spirit, allowing Xianzhou to maximize its vision in the dark.
Judging from the current situation, the secret of the King of Medicine is just one of his ulterior motives. Chen Lin did not say what to do, but Jing Yuan was very clear about the next course of action.
Concentrate your superior strength and step on any insects that come into your sight to death!
This time was the same. Jing Yuan felt that the problem was too complicated, but Chen Lin was not here, and this was not the Shen Ce Mansion where the two were playing chess.
"My dear brother, you are really gifted in using open tactics."
Jingyuan laughed bitterly.
Every time he took the initiative to talk to Chen Lin about the situation, in order to avoid wrong thinking, everything was done on the premise that the Star Core Hunter was the one who brought the Star Core.
But now it seems that the problem of the star core is far more complicated than he thought.
He was confident that he could think of all the solutions, but...
I’m afraid Xianzhou doesn’t have that much time left.
"For both public and private reasons, I hope that the Immortal Boat will join forces with the Empire to fight against the storm... After the wind dies down, I want to see what the storm that the Star Core Hunter mentioned looks like."
……
Back to the large living room on the fourth floor of the Yichen Inn, perhaps it is appropriate to call this place a high-level meeting room. The young chief scientist of the empire, the national will of Beloberg, and the empire itself did not know what kind of danger would appear in the L-star gate he planned to open.
He sat on the single sofa, and March 7 stood behind it, supporting his broad and strong shoulders with his arms.
"Ah Lin, do you think it looks good here?"
"It might as well be tied to your leg loops instead of your cuffs."
"But there's already a bow on the leg ring..."
Sanyueqi slapped his thigh and suddenly realized, "I know where to put it. Look, I can hang it on my belt! Isn't it very fairy-like?"
Qingque gave them a small red lucky knot. The weaving style was the same, but the words on it were different.
Walter was not as active as March Seventh. Faced with the first gift he received since arriving at the Immortal Boat, he acted much more cherishing and thanked Qingque very solemnly.
"I like this gift very much. Thank you, Miss Qingque."
"You're too polite, Mr. Walter. I have no place to stay these two days, so I'm sorry to bother you." Qingque waved his hand, "I asked a friend to help make the Emperor Yuan Qiongyu. Because it is purely handmade, it may take some time."
"It's mainly about the Diyuan Qiongyu that Miss Qingque mentioned. Hmm... It's very similar to a card game in my hometown. I heard that my mother liked this kind of activity when she was young, so I want to try and see if I can learn it."
Qingque immediately praised: "Mr. Walter is really a family with good vision! He speaks patiently and considerately. Diyuan Qiongyu is actually very simple. This is the rule book. If you have time, you can take a look at it. You will be able to get started soon."
As he spoke, Qingque handed over a booklet with a simple cover. Walter took it and read it carefully. Xing and March Seventh both came over to see how this card game, which was played everywhere on Xianzhou Street, was played.
Chen Lin lay on the sofa with his hands folded and his eyes closed, not moving at all. If it weren't for the occasional movement of his fingers, he would have looked just like he was asleep.
Everyone in the train crew was used to Chen Lin's state. In their opinion, Chen Lin would close his eyes and point his fingers around whenever he had nothing to do, and no one knew what he was doing. But since Chen Lin didn't say anything, everyone tacitly agreed not to ask.
San Yue Qi discovered the blind spot and said in surprise: "Hey! The author of this is you, Miss Qingque?!"
"Yes." Qingque explained, "There was no Emperor Yuan Qiong Yu on the Xianzhou originally. If there was, I wouldn't have been so bored when I was in school. It's mainly because it has been popular on the Xianzhou in the past two years. If no one knows how to play it, no matter how good the game is, it's useless. I spent some time organizing it to make it easier for newcomers to learn. Everyone can find fun by playing Emperor Yuan Qiong Yu, and relax when they are free. I am already very satisfied."
Xing, on the other hand, focused on the rule book and exclaimed, "So many card types! They all fit together very neatly."
Walter nodded: "The rules are simple, but the design is not easy."
"By the way, Miss Qingque, won't the inventor of this card game cause trouble for you?"
San Yue Qi said doubtfully, "I remember it seemed like the company set the rules. Luo Fu should also have relevant contacts with the company, right? For example, the inventor of something has the right to use it for profit. The inventor of Di Yuan Qiong... oh! If the inventor of Di Yuan Qiong Yu found out that others were making rule books and selling them, wouldn't Xian Zhou have a department to cause trouble?"
"That's called a patent," Walter explained.
"Yes! It's a patent! Doesn't Xianzhou protect this kind of rights?"
"That's not the case..." Qingque shook his head, "It's just that I never thought of using the Emperor's Jade to make money. These are all things I found in the ancient books of the Taibusi. I just add some rules to it and it's playable. Anyway, it's fine as long as everyone can have fun during their free time. It doesn't matter."
Walter and Xing noticed something in Qingque's words, and their eyes changed suddenly. Only March Seven was still telling Qingque to be careful not to get into trouble.
Finally, Walter sighed and interrupted: "Little Sanyue, haven't you reacted yet? The inventor of Diyuan Qiongyu is in front of you."
"what?"
"I'm not the inventor... I just think it's a pity that this thing is lost. I had nothing to do at that time, so I added some game rules. I didn't expect that so many people would play it, haha..." Qingque scratched his head and smiled shyly.
At this moment, San Yueqi wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Chen Lin seemed to have finished the things in his hands and asked about the things that the few people had taken to the Shen Ce Mansion, which barely made San Yue Qi less embarrassed.
Walter told everything about his future in detail, and the words he remembered were very complete, almost reconstructing all the conversations and events on their way to the Shen Ce Mansion and inside the Shen Ce Mansion.
