Alien Super Search
Chapter 572 Sir, Who Says I Won't Come
Qin Yun'er and Feng Ling all felt that Xia Zhanhong was talking nonsense.Even if one learns to engrave from an early age, few will become master engravers decades later.In just half a month, trying to carve a sculpture that surpasses the level of a master is simply a dream.
However, although everyone didn't believe it, there was nothing anyone could do except follow Xia Zhanhong's words.
Therefore, in the early morning of the next day, Fengling still followed Xia Zhanhong's order, and secretly searched for the three-color magnolia stone in various parts of Ningcheng...
In the main official's mansion of Ning City, the main official sat on the main seat, stroked his long beard, looked at Duan Yanjun and Duan Chengfeng and his son sitting at the bottom, and asked lightly: "After Hou Dongsheng of the Han family returned to the mansion last night, did you do anything?" !"
"My lord..." Duan Yanjun and Duan Chengfeng stood up at the same time, bent over and cupped their hands.
"Sit down and talk!" The chief officer smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and pressed against the void lightly.
"Thank you, sir!" After the father and son of the Duan family were seated, Duan Yanjun said: "After Hou Dongsheng returned last night, there was no movement in the Han family, as if nothing happened..."
"Oh?" The chief officer's eyes flashed, his brows were slightly frowned, he was silent, and his face showed a thoughtful look.
"My lord, they are not preparing. They really want to go out and look for the carvings of birds and phoenixes?" Duan Chengfeng asked with a nervous look.Every time he gets along with the chief officer, he will feel great pressure.
Shaking his head lightly, the chief officer said slowly: "That kid is not stupid, and Qin Yun'er is even more shrewd. It is absolutely impossible for them not to know that there is no match in the world for the carving of birds and phoenixes. It is impossible to find..."
During the conversation.The chief officer suddenly showed a sneer: "Hmph! In fact, even if this carving can be found elsewhere, they will not go. They are going out of the city now. It is equivalent to losing the protection of the security team. We will not let this opportunity go! This point, They know it all!"
"My lord, if they ask the management team to send someone to follow them to search, and then take the opportunity to run away..." Duan Yanjun hesitated and said.
"Hey..." The chief officer waved his hands with a sly smile, and said with disdain: "The management team will never do this. He just picked himself out. If he let the Han family run away on the way out, wouldn't he kill himself again?" Come back around..."
"And! If they want to go out, they can't move at all. At least Qin Yun'er won't leave, otherwise they will tell the whole Ningcheng that they want to escape!"
After a short pause, the chief officer said in a deep voice: "Don't worry! They won't leave! The purpose of that kid's doing this is to gain time for half a month to come up with countermeasures. They don't want to give up the selection of the temple guard at all..."
"Otherwise, he will directly accept the punishment of disqualification from the selection of the guards. As long as we don't leave Ningcheng, we will have to spend some trouble if we want to move the Han family!"
Duan Yanjun nodded, and said with a little resentment: "Yes! You can't control the security team. It's too awkward. It's difficult to do things everywhere!"
The official said: "It is because of this that I agreed to the kid's bet... half a month later, the Han family left the city, and it was the eve of the selection of the temple guards. All the families in the city couldn't make a move..."
Hearing this, the Duan family father and son laughed: "The Han family has only one way at this time, and that is to wait for death... Thanks to the master's strategizing and such a clever situation, they were driven to a dead end!"
The corner of the chief officer's mouth flickered, and he waved his hand and said, "Be careful with the Ten Thousand Years Ship. Don't talk about winning or losing until the last moment. That kid Hou Dongsheng is not simple. It's hard for anyone to say whether he will come up with any solution." Fa! You still have to keep watching the Han House secretly, and report any changes immediately..."
"Don't worry, my lord! Not only is there the He family next to the Han family, but there are also people from the Lingyun Gang watching from the outside. If there is any trouble, it will never be hidden from our surveillance..."
At this moment, before the Duan family's father and son finished speaking, the sound of running footsteps approached from far away, and soon reached the hall door.
"Sir, sir, please see me outside Ling Yun's mansion!" A follower knelt on one knee at the door, clasped his fists and said loudly.
"There is movement!" Duan's father and son stood up abruptly.
"Bring him in!" The chief officer was not as excited as the Duan family father and son, but waved his hand gently to the entourage.
"Yes!" Not long after the entourage left, Lord Shen strode in. After bowing and saluting, he smiled and said, "Master, this morning, the Fengling of the Han family left the mansion. stone!"
"Hahahaha..." The father and son of the Duan family laughed at the same time, as if they had heard the funniest thing in the world: "Inquire about the three-colored magnolia stone, they wouldn't want to carve a piece that surpassed the level of a master... ..."
However, before their words were finished, the chief officer frowned, his expression was solemn, and the laughter stopped abruptly.
"My lord! They won't really..." Duan Yanjun hesitated to speak.
"It's hard to say..." the chief officer said in a deep voice, Xia Zhanhong's serious expression when he looked at the fragments of birds and phoenixes appeared in his mind.
"Impossible! The five members of the Han family are all in their 20s, even if they have learned sculpture..."
"The fortune they got in the endless sand sea is not small, and no one can say what they have behind them..."
"However, even if you learn the art of carving, it will be difficult to achieve something without a few decades, let alone a carving like a hundred birds and a phoenix!"
"Although this possibility is extremely small, we have to guard against it!" The chief officer sneered, and said in a low voice, "Even if there is a chance, we can't leave it to him..."
Raising his head suddenly, the chief officer ordered: "Notify the tax officer to strictly investigate the accounts of the major commercial firms in Ningcheng, and the market must not let it go..."
"Yes!" The attendant waiting outside the door responded, turned around and ran out quickly.
The chief officer glanced at Duan's father and son and Shen Gangzhu, and said in a dark voice: "Don't say that it is unlikely that the three-color magnolia stone will appear in Ningcheng, even if there is, I will see who dares to sell it to them!"
Duan's father and son and Gang Leader Shen looked at each other, and then glanced at the gloomy chief officer. They felt chills all over their bodies, and a sense of fear rose in their hearts...
The sun is getting higher, what happened last night.At this time, it has spread in the streets and alleys.
"I heard that last night a young man put more than 40 people in the Lingyun Gang alone. Is it true?"
"Of course it's true. The friend of my cousin's third uncle's nephew was at the scene. He said that the young man was extremely brave and ruthless. More than 40 members of the Lingyun Gang were beaten to the bone by him..."
"I'm so stupid, so awesome! It must be a child of some family... The Lingyun Gang is fighting with the family, and now it's exciting!"
"That's awesome. In the end, he actually injured the entourage of the chief officer. Wait for the bad luck... At that time, the security team came and took that young man away!"
"I heard from the young master of the Liu family that the young man is from the Han family, and this time he is going to participate in the selection of the temple guards! But something like this happened. I'm afraid his qualifications for the selection will be lost!"
"Not necessarily, I heard that it was an accidental injury..."
"The entourage of the chief officer, even accidental injury should be punished as deliberate injury, otherwise where will the chief officer's face be saved..."
The common people heard it from hearsay, so of course they don't know the specific situation, but all the big families have found out the truth.
I heard that the Han family actually made a bet with the chief official to find a carving that surpassed the level of a master within half a month.Everyone shook their heads and sighed.Some were because they couldn't rob the Han family's wealth, some were sighing in their hearts, and some felt sorry for Qin Yun'er, a stunning beauty...
But no matter what, all the families knew in their hearts that the Han family was completely doomed this time!
one day.Two days, three days... As time passed, the turmoil caused by this matter gradually subsided. All the major families are doing their best to prepare for the two extra spots in the selection of the guards. Who will pay attention to the things that are already a foregone conclusion? .
On the tenth day, Feng Ling returned to the Han Mansion with heavy steps, completely dejected.I ran all over the large and small business houses and various markets in Ningcheng, but I couldn't find the three-color magnolia stone at all.
And in the Han Mansion, Xia Zhanhong never came out after locking himself in the room that night, nor did he see anyone.Even when eating, let them leave it at the door and come back to pick up the bowls and chopsticks.
Qin Yun'er was completely desperate at this time, even if Xia Zhanhong really could do it, without the three-color magnolia stone, it would be hard for a smart woman to cook without rice!
Seeing that the half-month period is approaching, Qin Yun'er is already thinking about how to persuade Xia Zhanhong to escape back to the Three Sacred Mountains with that picture...
The time soon came to the last day, and all the families received an invitation from Master Li Dui at the same time, asking everyone to go to Li Dui's mansion at dusk the next day and announce the rules for the selection of the temple guards.At the same time, they also witnessed the bet between the chief official and the Han family.
A few days later, the half-month period of the bet has come, but the door of Xia Zhanhong's room in the Han Mansion is still not opened.
Seeing that it was already afternoon, Qin Yun'er and Feng Ling were anxiously circling outside the door. The door was made of fine steel. They called the door several times but failed...
As the sun gradually moved towards the west, Qin Yun'er and Feng Ling became more and more anxious. If Xia Zhanhong didn't come out again, it would be too late to escape...
Until dusk, Qin Yun'er and the others kept calling, the door finally creaked open, and Xia Zhanhong, with a faint smile on his face, came out...
At the same time, in the front hall of Captain Li's mansion, nearly a hundred families who participated in the guard selection this time have all arrived.Sitting silently on the chairs that had been prepared on both sides of the hall, no one made a sound.
The leader of the management team, with a red face, sat upright in the main seat, with a calm expression on his face.
Officer Ning Cheng sat in the first position on the left hand, with his hands smoothing his long beard and smiling slightly, he raised his eyes to scan the entrance of the hall from time to time.
"Master Lieutenant! This Han family's face is big enough, let us all the families in the city wait here!" The chief officer said with a smile.
"My lord! Are they looking for a hundred birds and a phoenix? It's normal that there is not enough time. Maybe they are rushing here now...Since the dark is set as the deadline, why not wait a little longer!" The team said warmly.
"What Captain Li said is true, we are waiting!" After the chief officer finished speaking, he lowered his head and looked down, without saying a word.
No one spoke, the hall was completely silent, and even the sound of breathing could hardly be heard.With the passage of time, the sky gradually darkened, and a depressing atmosphere permeated the hall. The representatives of every family, sitting there, felt as if there was a nail under their buttocks, which was extremely uncomfortable.
It was winter, the sky darkened quickly, and soon the night covered the earth, and the lights in the hall were lit up.
The chief officer raised his head, glanced at the hall door, and broke the silence in the hall with a chuckle: "Master Li, the time has come. It seems that the Han family can't find Bai Niao Chaofeng, so they won't come!"
The management team pondered for a while, nodded and stood up, and said loudly: "The bet between the chief officer and the Han family..."
However, just as the management team was halfway through speaking, Xia Zhanhong's voice suddenly came from outside the hall: "My lord, who said I won't come!" (To be continued.

However, although everyone didn't believe it, there was nothing anyone could do except follow Xia Zhanhong's words.
