After the Fairy Disappeared

  Chapter 626 Oath Chain

  He Lingchuan began to make nonsense: "Do you know the ruins of Qianxing City?"

   "I know. It's the old royal capital of Guyuan Kingdom." It is famous all over the world because of the war of destroying the country more than a hundred years ago.

   "On the ruins of Qianxing City, occasionally there will be a mirage after the violent sandstorm, recreating the battle of the destruction of Yuan Kingdom." He Lingchuan shrugged. "I have seen the same, but it happened in another place."

  Fang Canran licked his lips, although he knew that the other party had hooked him, he couldn't help but ask, "Where?"

   "Not in Bega's country." He Lingchuan said with a smile, "Go west, go west."

   "What did you see?"

   "I saw Shao Jian visiting the ancient city. Oh, that place was very prosperous more than a hundred years ago. It couldn't compare to Lingxu City, but it was more orderly and richer than most cities."

  If you want to pry Fang Canran's mouth open, you have to convince him that both of them are related to Shao Jian.

  Those who know Shao Jian's life, it is probably not difficult to guess where the "ancient city west of Bejah" he mentioned is.

"I also saw Shao Jian talking to his friends in the secret room, saying that he had a daughter, seven years old, nicknamed Yanzi, and named Yingying." He Lingchuan said slowly, "He smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, he was full of pride. "

  He sighed: "Although he himself is obsessed with revenge, he hopes that his daughter Shao Yingying will be safe and successful, and just live an ordinary life." He Lingchuan still remembers the way Shao Jian talked about his daughter with light in his eyes.

  Fang Canran said silently, "What else?"

"He said that when he took his daughter to visit the West Street Temple Fair in Xuanguo Linhe City, he asked someone to tell his fortune. The divination given by the other party was the fourteen words I said earlier." He Lingchuan pretended to be stunned when he said this, " Oh yes, Xuanguo is long gone, and I don’t know if Linhe City is still there.”

  So when Fang Canran heard the place name "Linhe City", he knew that He Lingchuan was playing tricks on him.

  Fang Canran swallowed, thought for a while before asking:

   "In other words, what you saw was all accidental, and it has nothing to do with your coming to Lingxu City?"

"You know, I was entrusted by Prince Chiyan to investigate the case, and I came to Lingxu City by chance." He Lingchuan said every word, "But seeing the ring on your hand, I think we should ask clearly. "

  Fang Canran immediately asked back: "Why do you have to ask clearly, what does Shao Jian have to do with you?"

"Of course it is related." He Lingchuan said in a low voice, "He never stood at the forefront of history, but disrupted the order of the God Realm. So broadly speaking, what he did is related to everyone. Bye Thanks to him, the disappearing speed of spiritual energy in this world has slowed down, from more than a hundred years ago to sixty years ago, Di Liuye was a frequent visitor in the world."

  Fang Canran listened expressionlessly, his heart was overwhelmed.

  Honestly speaking, the relationship between the God Realm and the Human World, Emperor Liuye and Spiritual Qi, these relationships are not shocking secrets among the real upper class. After all, there are smart people in the world, and those who know it pretend to be confused.

  But He Xiao can accurately tell the connection between Di Liujiang and Shao Jian, which is scary!

   This means that the young man in front of him has a good understanding of Shao Jian's life and beliefs.

  Fang Canran even felt that he had become transparent in front of He Xiao. This sense of fear that eight generations of his ancestors have been seen through made him feel a chill in his heart.

  Where did such a person come out and expose his carefully guarded secrets one by one?

He Lingchuan stared at him and said: "I said this because I hope Director Fang understands that I have no malice towards you, otherwise I would have reported it to Tiangong. You also know the attitude of the gods and demon emperors towards the descendants of Yuan Kingdom, especially with Shao Jian No matter if I told the truth or not, they will take you down immediately and interrogate you severely!"

  If it wasn't for Fang Canran's sudden attack on him, he would have wanted to observe more carefully, after all, he had already had enough troubles.

  But Fang Canran pierced the window paper first, and He Lingchuan wanted to follow the trend. He doesn't ask Shao Jian's descendants to become his friends, but he needs help.

  His support in Lingxu City is too little. However, this action is difficult to complete by oneself.

  Fang Canran has worked hard in Lingxu for many years, and has many times more resources and contacts than him. If he can borrow it, it will be a good helper.

  Of course, first of all, both parties must have a foundation of honesty and mutual trust, which is the most difficult step to take.

  Fang Canran remained silent.

  It is exactly as what He Xiao said, but when it comes to the matter of Guyuan Kingdom, Lingxu City is crazy and unreasonable. The reaction can only be described as "stress", let alone the name "Shao Jian"...

  This young man seems to recognize Tiangong Du Yunshi, as long as he goes to Bai Ziqi to say a few words, the thunder will come down.

  The chief executive of the Golden Horn family sounds powerful to ordinary people, but he is actually worthless in front of Shenwei!

  Many thoughts turned in his heart: "Why didn't you report it?"

   "No matter what others say, I admire Mr. Shao as a man, and I don't want his descendants to be persecuted again." He Lingchuan said seriously, "Of course, we have to calculate the loss you caused me tonight."

   "..." Fang Canran felt relieved, since the other party started talking about money, his biggest crisis was over, "It is necessary, I will give 50,000 taels to Mr. He as a surprise fee."

  Everything is easy to talk about if you have money. A few days ago, in order to buy frost-patterned silver, He Lingchuan took credit from Li Qingge: "The flash thunder you threw out just now is not bad, what's it called?"

   "Soul-shocking bomb." Fang Canran swallowed, "I still have two more, which I received from other places more than ten years ago."

   "I want five." He Lingchuan pointed to the broken mirror by the door, "Can this heart-piercing mirror be repaired?"

   "...I'll find someone to fix it."

   "Okay, it's mine when it's repaired."

  The treasures this kid wants are very expensive. But the current Fang Canran, who has the right to say no?

   "By the way, I will need a lot of information in the future, Mr. Fang, you have a lot of contacts and contacts—" The last few words dragged out the tone.

  He gave Fang Canran a chance, don't be useless.

  Fang Canran closed his eyes: "I will try my best to find out."

  Seeing that the benefits are basically in place, He Lingchuan rubbed his hands together: "Okay, if Brother Fang doesn't bother me later, we can shake hands and make peace now, as if nothing happened tonight, how about it?"

  Fang Canran stared at him for a long time, then nodded: "It's a deal!"

———

  He Lingchuan pulled out the silver needle that sealed the acupuncture point.

  Fang Canran moved his wrist and looked at He Lingchuan with complex and difficult eyes.

  Although he didn’t think that this young man would kill someone in Yuexiang Villa, but he was released so simply under the premise of having all the advantages—money, magic weapon, and other objects are nothing at this time—it was still beyond Fang Canran’s expectations.

   On the surface, it seems that He Lingchuan is expressing sincerity.

   But Fang Canran understands that generosity comes from self-confidence: self-confidence can handle him at any time and is not afraid of his revenge.

  As He Lingchuan himself said, it would be too easy for him to deal with Fang Canran, just go to Tiangong and report to Shao Jian’s descendants. But Fang Canran couldn't catch him.

  If it was someone else, maybe they threatened him to death.

   But this boy...

   Alas, how did he lose so thoroughly tonight? Fang Canran sighed secretly, and handed over the 50,000 taels of silver note: "Give me the money first, and prepare everything else, and I will send it in a few days."

   This means that he still has at least five soul-shocking bullets.

  The pond fire in the living room has been smoldering, keeping the house warm as spring.

Fang Canran grabbed the cast iron pot, went outside to fetch a pot of spring water, set it on the fire in the pond, picked up the persimmons from the table, and handed one to He Lingchuan: "A persimmon? The two-hundred-year-old tree in the back?" Produced by old persimmon trees, it is very sweet."

  This kind of persimmon has obvious longitudinal grooves on its peel, and the whole thing looks like a small cube, not as round as other persimmons.

  He Lingchuan waved his hand: "Don't dare, the anti-drug pill I took has expired."

  Fang Canran smiled awkwardly, bowed to him and said: "I offended you earlier, I hope Mr. He will forgive me!" Then he moved a chair over with his own hands, "Please sit down."

  This person's mentality adjustment was really very quick, He Lingchuan wanted to hear what he had to say, so he sat down and didn't say a word.

  Fang Canran said seriously: "I think Mr. He is a person with secrets—just like me."

  The two are constantly testing each other, "If you can't sincerely trust each other, the conversation in Pianxiang Villa before is just a waste of time."

  He Lingchuan nodded. Without a foundation of trust, there can be no in-depth communication.

   "Then I have a suggestion." Fang Canran got up and walked upstairs after a dozen breaths, and came back with something extra in his hand.

  He Lingchuan was a little surprised, because the chief executive actually brought down a pair of shackles!

"This is?"

  Fang Canran threw the shackles into the pond fire, took dozens of breaths before taking them out, and put them in He Lingchuan's hands.

cold.

  The heat of the flame did not conduct to the shackles at all.

   "This is a good thing. It's called the chain of vows. It's a treasure I received from an overseas alchemist five years ago. There are only two pieces."

  He Lingchuan picked it up to check. The two handcuffs were dark, and there were countless inscriptions engraved on the chain connected in the middle, all in the language of immortals.

   "Ancient thing?"

"And it works so far." Fang Canran pointed to it, "When you got the chain, you got a reminder, right? One, and then swear to it. Any one of them will not perform or break the oath, they will be severely punished, and they will be killed by the demons. This kind of punishment is not even resisted by the ancient immortals, so it is widely used to form a contract. Few. Well, if an execution date is set, any party who deliberately delays will be punished."

   There is such a treasure? He Lingchuan understood: "Mr. Fang wants to make an agreement with me?"

   No wonder Fang Canran was not afraid of offending him before, so he wanted to use this treasure a long time ago.

   "Yes, let's make a gentleman's agreement, not to murder the other party in any form, that is, not to directly or indirectly attack, report, frame, or betray the other party, otherwise you will die from the backlash of the demon."
