Chapter 499: One General Leads to the Death of Thousands

Luo Gang described what the guest officials had to do. It was very simple. Most of the time, they had nothing to do. They would only ask him to help when they needed help.

For example, the last time Xu Hei was buried underground, Luo Gang invited a bunch of guest officials to help.

This was undoubtedly a good job.

Xu Hei did not agree immediately, but just said: "Let me think about it for a few days."

"No problem, tell me anytime you think it through." Luo Gang smiled.

Xu Hei left the City Lord's Mansion and was still thinking about the Nine-headed Insect's warning.

From his own observation, there was no problem with Liefeng City. Not to mention staying for a while, even if he really joined Liefeng City, it seemed that there was no harm.

As for other cities, Xu Hei had only been to Sansha City, where anyone could kill you as long as they paid enough insurance money.

After leaving Liefeng City, where could he go?

Are other places really better than here?

Unconsciously, Xu Hei walked to a courtyard, which was Chen Zimo's residence.

This place had been investigated thoroughly long ago, and there were no clues.

A captain of the guards was standing guard at the gate of the courtyard. Seeing Xu Hei coming, he said respectfully, "So it's Senior Xu. What's up?"

"Just take a look." Xu Hei said.

"The Lord of the City has said that you can visit any place in Liefeng City at will!" The captain of the guards said respectfully.

Xu Hei nodded and walked into the courtyard immediately. He spread his consciousness and looked around.

There were many traces of formations left in the courtyard, all left by Chen Zimo during his lifetime.

Xu Hei did not find any clues. Even if there were any clues left, they would have been found by the City Lord's Mansion long ago.

He walked into a pavilion, stared at the ground of the pavilion, and observed intently.

There was a formation left by Chen Zimo here. This formation did not have any special effects, but the complex lines of the formation formed a line of words.

"One general succeeds, and thousands of bones are withered."

Xu Hei stared at the line of words and fell into deep thought.

But when Xu Hei looked again, he found that the line of words had disappeared.

Xu Hei concentrated on observing for a long time, but never saw that line of words again, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

"What is the hidden story behind Chen Zimo's escape?"

Xu Hei shook his head, really couldn't figure it out, and left the courtyard.

On the street, the usually quiet streets suddenly became lively, and many people rushed to the east, talking about it.

"Gongsun Bo has brought back a new batch of goods!"

"Haha, it is said that it is the latest high-grade stone produced by Meteorite City, which contains rare treasures from the upper world. If a treasure is opened, it will make a lot of money!"

"The stone he selected must have treasures, this time can't be missed!"

Hearing the discussion of passers-by, Xu Hei also followed behind and ran to the east.

To the east of Liefeng City is the largest gambling house in Dongcheng District, and Gongsun Bo is the owner.

When Xu Hei arrived, there was a mud boat parked at the door, and a large number of stones were pulled on the boat, and people were moving them in piece by piece.

These stones are all black and have strange shapes, like meteorites from outer space.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist Xu is here too. Do you want to try your luck?" Gongsun Bo smiled when he saw Xu Hei.

Xu Hei knew what he meant and asked, "Where did these stones come from?"

"I dug them in Luanxing City. A new ore mine was discovered there. I used all my belongings to buy a batch of stones. These are the latest unearthed goods and have not been identified yet!" Gongsun Bo said excitedly.

"Luanxing City!"

Xu Hei had heard of Luanxing City. It was the largest city in the East Wilderness! It is said that a meteorite disaster occurred there, and a large number of meteorites fell from the sky, forming a city rich in minerals. Many people made their fortunes by digging stones.

All of the above are rumors from the battlefield outside the domain.

In Huangfu Duanlong's memory, there is a more detailed description of Luanxing City.

Luanxing City is one of the main battlefields of the ancient war. There are countless participants, and countless senior masters died in that battle.

Someone used supreme magical power to attract meteorites from outer space, which fell into that area, killing everyone, and their belongings were buried with the meteorites.

There are also rumors that the reason why the battlefield outside the domain peeled off from the upper realm is closely related to that battle.

Therefore, the stones dug out of Chaos Star City may contain materials from the upper realm and are worth a lot of money.

However, stones are stones after all, and it is impossible for every piece to be precious. In order to maximize profits, unscrupulous merchants will hype the stones and sell them at high prices, regardless of what is hidden inside.

"Do you have any interest in opening a game, fellow Daoist Xu?" Gongsun Bo smiled.

"Let's take a look first." Xu Hei's face was calm.

Not long after, all the stones were transported into the stone workshop and filled up a yard.

Xu Hei glanced at a total of 3,000 stones of different sizes and shapes. Gongsun Bo marked the price of each stone.

The cheapest one was thousands of spirit stones, and the most expensive one was millions of spirit stones.

Hundreds of people gathered in the yard, all of them were bystanders who came after hearing the noise. Even if they didn't buy anything, they wanted to watch the excitement.

"I want this stone!"

An old man in the Nascent Soul stage bought a stone worth 100,000 yuan and cut it in public.

The color of the stone turned red, and the old man exclaimed: "Red-leafed refined gold, the size of a fist, this is worth at least two million!"

"My God! This stone actually contains red-leafed refined gold, which is a top-grade material for refining weapons!"

"As expected of Old Yuan, you have a sharp eye!"

The others praised him, and Old Yuan narrowed his eyes proudly.

After he heard that Gongsun Bo had brought back the stones, he came all the way just to get a bargain, and the first piece was shipped.

"Red refined gold, a good thing! If I refine it into the spirit beast ring, I can make the ring contain fire aura. Integrating it into the real dragon sword can also increase the power of the sword." Xu Hei thought to himself. .

He underestimated the value of these stones, they can really yield treasures!

Especially the refining materials, for a refining master like him, he can maximize the value of the materials.

Gongsun Bo saw Xu Hei's hot eyes and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Xu, I will give you three stones. As long as the value does not exceed one million, you can pick them as you like. This will be considered as repayment for the spiritual fluid you gave me."

This is an old trick in casinos. They give you a few games for free first, and then you can earn back your capital with profits after you become addicted.

However, Gongsun Bo didn't have bad intentions, he really wanted to repay Xu Hei.

"Then I'll be disrespectful, but I have a question." Xu Hei looked at Gongsun Bo and said, "Since you bought the stone, why don't you open it yourself?"

Gongsun Bo did not explain, but smiled and asked, "Guess how I got the title of the best gambler in the world?"

Xu Hei thought about it for a while and shook his head.

Gongsun Bo smiled and said: "There is no sure-win gambling game in the world. The real winner is always one who doesn't gamble."
