Chapter 5006 Scarlet Lingshi
Mu Chengfeng's strength is at the late stage of the third level of supernatural powers. This strength should also be at the forefront of Cangshenzong. After all, apart from the two king-level powerhouses, Cangshenzong only has six worship elders who are at the peak of supernatural powers. Even with the addition of Ye Qian, this person's strength is enough to rank in the top ten in Cangshenzong.
Of course, if he didn't have this strength, he wouldn't be able to take on such an important task.
"What's going on?"
Cao Feng was a little anxious, and asked as soon as he sat down.
Mu Chengfeng originally planned to serve a cup of tea to several people politely, but he had no choice but to put it down and said with a sigh: "About a month ago, a few blood-colored spirit stones were suddenly mined out of the mine. At first, I also thought that this was probably a mutated spirit stone, and if any creature died during the process of the spirit stone being produced, it might also be absorbed by the spirit stone to produce a blood spar."
As soon as Ye Qian heard the blood spar, he immediately pricked up his ears. It is inseparable from the blood spar that he can have today.
"However, although blood spar is rare, there are also. Moreover, if a blood spar can be produced, the strength of the creature that died next to it must be extraordinary, so the blood spar can no longer be called a spirit stone, but more like a... The inner alchemy contains the essence of the dead creature. However, although the blood spar contains extraordinary spiritual power and sufficient energy, it is a pity that no one can refine it, so it can only be regarded as tasteless." Having said that, Mu Chengfeng couldn't help shaking his head.
Ye Qian's heart moved, no one can refine it? That was someone else. If it was him, there would be no problem. This blood spar, now that Ye Qian thinks about it, the spiritual power contained in it is second, the kind of flesh and blood energy is the treasure, presumably the creature in life is at least above the supernatural powers.
Thinking about it now, when he was able to break through with just one blood spar, the energy contained in that blood spar might be comparable to ten top-quality spirit stones! However, since no one can refine this thing, and its value is definitely not comparable to ten top-grade spirit stones, Ye Qian suddenly cheered up, as if he had found a shortcut to cultivation, not only a shortcut, but also save money...
Mu Chengfeng naturally didn't know what Ye Qian was thinking, and continued: "If it's a blood spar, it's nothing. Warriors need it. However, that night, those people who mined the blood-colored spirit stones died unexpectedly. I went to check and found that they died very strangely. There were no scars or injuries on their bodies, but the blood in their bodies had already Completely condensed..."
"What? How could this be?"
"The blood in the body is completely coagulated, what the hell is going on?"
The two brothers Cao Cao were taken aback, and Ye Qian was the same, but he began to think about how such a situation could happen.
"I don't know. The news was blocked at that time. I also planned to cremate the bodies of those people, so as not to cause a large-scale panic. But I thought it was just a few bloody stones. I didn't expect that even more were mined later. Many. And not just that one mine, every mine has appeared..." Speaking of this, Mu Chengfeng said helplessly and painfully: "Therefore, almost twenty people died at once... "
His pain is definitely not false. After all, if it weren't for his wrong judgment and concealment of the news, those people who came later would definitely not die.
"What happened to those corpses?" Cao Cao asked.
What Mu Chengfeng said just now happened a month ago. Obviously, high-level officials like the Cao brothers have already known about these situations. It's just that they don't know the details. Obviously, they don't know about the problem of blood clotting, but they still know the general situation.
"I put them all in one room and sealed it up, no one can enter." Mu Chengfeng said apologetically, he was also responsible for the deaths of those people.
Cao Cao was in charge of the punishment. Apart from the shock in his eyes, he was also a little bit annoyed. He was known for being unselfish, so he didn't think much about it at the moment, so he sternly shouted: "Mu Chengfeng! How dare you treat me like this? If it wasn't your mistake, how could the twenty people behind have died? Those are all disciples of my Cangshenzong, but they came to the Lingshi Mine to do some work in exchange for contribution points, but... now all Killed by you!"
After being taught such a lesson by Cao Cao, Mu Chengfeng didn't dare to refute, and bowed his head apologetically.
"Okay, okay, Elder Cao, this is the end of the matter. I think Commander Mu absolutely doesn't want this to happen. Although he is responsible, he didn't do it on purpose. This matter will be discussed in the future. Let's figure out the situation first and solve it. Let's talk about it later." Ye Qian stood up to smooth things over at this time, he didn't think that shouting and scolding would have any effect.
Cao Cao snorted coldly, bristling with anger, but also kept silent.
Cao Feng knew his brother's temper, so he acted as a peacemaker just like Ye Qian. He waved his hand and said: "Things have already happened, it's useless to talk about those things, Commander Mu, you should continue talking."
"Alas..." Mu Chengfeng sighed, but there was sadness and regret on his resolute face. He shook his head and said, "The Lingshi Mine has stopped mining for half a month, and the disciples who work here are all Stay here temporarily. A week ago, Elder Aoyang and Elder Lin came to investigate. They concluded that something must have happened in this Lingshi mine, so they entered it to investigate. At first, they didn't find anything, but On the fifth day, that is, one day ago, only Elder Aoyang came back when he entered the mine, and Elder Lin did not see him."
"I asked Elder Aoyang at the time, and he said that Elder Lin was unwilling to have no clues, and he didn't plan to rest, and wanted to continue investigating. As a result, she didn't return all night. Early this morning, Elder Aoyang entered the mine again, and he came out not long after. , said in a panic that Elder Lin is missing!" Mu Chengfeng continued: "We were all taken aback at the time, and we were going to investigate the situation, but someone guarding the warehouse came and said that the warehouse had been stolen, and four guards were also missing. .”
"We were all shocked at the time. We thought that although Elder Lin was young, his cultivation was as high as the sky, so there should be no safety issues, so we went to see what happened in the warehouse first. But we just walked near the warehouse, and Elder Lin suddenly appeared. She was very strange, her face was bloody, and her actions were full of blood. And as soon as she appeared, she shot at us without saying a word. Naturally, we are not opponents, but fortunately Elder Aoyang is here, and then Elder Lin Seeing that there were so many of us and wanted to escape, Elder Aoyang chased after us, the two fought while walking, they should have gone to the depths of Qingfeng Mountain by now."
After Mu Chengfeng finished speaking, the faces of Cao Feng and Cao Cao were as gloomy as water. From this point of view, 90% of the time there was something wrong with Lin Xuanjiao.
She must have entered the Lingshi Mine last night and made something happen, and then made people think that she was in the Lingshi Mine, but she went to secretly kill the four people guarding the warehouse, and then stole the Lingshi. Perhaps he thought that the harm he caused was too small and wanted to kill a few more people. But it should be that he saw that the situation was not good, so he ran away in a hurry.
But Ye Qian didn't think so, he found that this matter seemed reasonable, but actually there were various loopholes. It's not easy for him to say it clearly. If Lin Xuanjiao really did these things, he, an outsider who has just arrived, will justify her, and I'm afraid he will be a little unclear in the future.
He has never met this Lin Xuanjiao, and there is no need to do this for her. But the matter of the Lingshi Mine is full of weirdness, Ye Qian thinks it is not that simple, he wants to continue to investigate.
He opened his mouth in advance and asked: "Elder Lin and Elder Aoyang, don't worry for now, even if the two of them fight, it should be about the same. However, Commander Mu, do you have that bloody spirit stone here?" Is it? Can we take it out and have a look?"
Mu Chengfeng frowned slightly, seemingly reluctant, but still nodded. "I did keep one of this bloody spirit stone here as evidence. Although it is unknown, since Elder Ye wants to see it, I will take it out..."
Then he took out a pair of gloves from his pocket. These gloves were old and seemed to be woven from the hair of some kind of monster. Afterwards, he took out a blood-colored spirit stone from the storage ring. Although he was wearing gloves, his hands were still full of spiritual power, and then he picked up the blood-colored spirit stone.
"This is the blood-colored spirit stone?" Ye Qian frowned. This stone is no different from ordinary spirit stones. The only difference is that it exudes a bloody smell.
"Yes, this is the blood-colored spirit stone. A total of more than 30 stones have been found, all of which are with Elder Aoyang. I keep this one as evidence. I should think that the sect will continue to send people over." ..." Mu Chengfeng replied.
Ye Qian and the others used their spiritual powers and various methods, but they couldn't see anything unusual about the stone. They thought the bloody smell from the bloody spirit stone was the key, but Mu Chengfeng shook his head and said that the bloody smell No effect whatsoever. And as expected, Cao Feng and the others didn't find anything wrong after smelling it for a while.
Mu Chengfeng took back the blood-colored spirit stone, took off his gloves, and was about to put them away, but Ye Qian suddenly said: "Commander Mu, these gloves seem strange to me, can you show me?"
Mu Chengfeng was stunned, and then smiled: "It's not a big deal, it's just made of snowy monkey hair, which is invulnerable to water and fire, and can resist all kinds of poisons." Then he handed the glove to Ye Qian, and said : "If Elder Ye likes it, it's okay to give it to you."
Ye Qian smiled noncommittally, and took a closer look at the glove. He had never heard of this snowy monkey hair, but it does have some peculiarities. It feels light and fluffy in the hand, but the glove will stick to the skin after wearing it, which is very strange. Ye Qian's heart moved, thinking of Mu Chengfeng's appearance just now, he also released some spiritual power to wrap around his palm, and immediately felt that there seemed to be a force that created a kind of barrier between his hand and the glove, It seems that they are close to each other, but they have been separated.
