Chapter 288 News
"Okay, let's continue talking about the spirit vein."
Chen Xuan is in a good mood.
Originally, I was still worrying, not knowing where to find the spiritual pulse, but I didn't expect that the news would come to my door in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Jin took out her mobile phone at this time, and a miniature map appeared on the mobile phone.
He pointed to the northwest corner of the map.
"Look, Mr. Chen, the spiritual veins found at this location are surrounded by a desert."
"My friend often collects some antique treasures from the desert."
"I just heard such news this time."
Chen Xuan looked at the topographic map on the phone and nodded.
"I don't know when we will leave?"
Chen Xuan couldn't wait any longer. If he could improve his strength as soon as possible and restore Yu Yu's chessboard, then he would feel safe.
"As long as Mr. Chen is willing, we can leave at any time."
Zhou Jin said respectfully.
He was also a little happy, he knew that he had guessed right, that Chen Xuan had really reached the point where he used martial arts to become a Daoist, so he would be more sure of what he wanted.
"Then let's go now."
Chen Xuan has nothing to worry about anyway, and cultivation is his top priority now.
Zhou Jin immediately called and began to arrange everything needed to go to the northwest. After half a day of preparation, the official departure began.
Sitting in Zhou Jin's commercial vehicle, he headed directly to the northwest, followed by several off-road vehicles, all under Zhou Jin's subordinates.
As the master of Qingmen, Zhou Jin is a well-deserved big boss, and he hugs him wherever he goes.
Chen Xuan didn't reject this kind of ostentation.
The inside of the car is also very luxurious. Chen Xuan is sitting in the back with a red wine glass next to him.
With my own practice speed, if I can really find a large spiritual vein this time, I am afraid that I will be able to break through a big realm soon.
At that time, his strength will increase tenfold, and on this earth, there will be almost no one who can threaten him.
Chen Xuan was thinking while walking.
I used to study art with my master on the mountain, and I was carefree and didn't feel any pressure.
But now, as he went to university, he gained more and more knowledge after a year of traveling, and he also learned more and more about this world.
Although there has been no opponent who can threaten his life so far, Chen Xuan has a hunch that this world is not as simple as he sees.
So Chen Xuan gradually felt a sense of crisis in his heart. Only by improving his own strength can he protect himself and his family.
Along the way, Chen Xuan closed his eyes and daydreamed, and Zhou Jin who was beside him didn't dare to disturb him.
The car traveled for about five or six hours before reaching a city in the northwest. Just after getting off the expressway, there were two rows of people in black standing at the exit of the expressway.
Several of them stood upright in the cold wind, and they seemed to be people who had been in high positions for a long time.
But when he saw Zhou Jin getting off the car, he immediately greeted him respectfully.
They are all Zhou Jin's subordinates.
"Mr. Zhou, you are here."
"I met Mr. Zhou."
The respectful looks of these people made Zhou Jin want to kneel down.
Zhou Jin pointed to Chen Xuan next to him: "This is Mr. Chen, and he is also the new leader of the martial arts alliance in the Northwest."
Hearing Zhou Jin's introduction, several people showed surprise in their eyes, and hurriedly bowed respectfully to Chen Xuan.
"I have seen Mr. Chen."
Such a scene made Chen Xuan a little uncomfortable.
After all, he is still a 19-year-old boy now, but he is not so annoying, on the contrary, there is a trace of vanity in his heart.
After all, when he was watching Hong Kong movies when he was in elementary school, he had imagined that he would be like a cloud of followers, but he didn't expect it to come true now.
Zhou Jin's subordinates have already prepared a reception banquet, which should be the largest hotel in the city.
When Chen Xuan and the others walked in, a group of aggressive people followed behind them, attracting many people's attention.
At first, Zhou Jin was afraid that Chen Xuan would not like this kind of ostentation, so she frowned slightly. Later, seeing that Chen Xuan did not show any obvious rejection, she let out a sigh of relief.
The dishes on the table were extremely luxurious, but Chen Xuan just ate a few bites casually, and naturally arranged a big hotel for the evening.
Rest for one night, and set off again after having breakfast the next morning.
After passing this city, the scene behind became more and more desolate.
In addition to Zhou Jin's subordinates, there was also a guide in the car today.
The guide was dressed in a suit, dressed meticulously, his hair was polished, and he was quite talkative, chattering endlessly along the way.
"Mr. Chen, this is the local guide. He is very familiar with the local terrain. He has a nickname called Knowles. There are very few things he doesn't know in this place. If you have any questions, you can ask him."
The other party turned his head, smiled at Chen Xuan, and took out a cigarette: "Come on, the boss smokes one."
Chen Xuan shook his head and said, "I don't smoke."
The man's outstretched hand immediately stayed in the air, wondering whether he should light the cigarette, or if he didn't, he was addicted to cigarettes. Happy.
When he was in a dilemma, Chen Xuan smiled slightly and said, "If I don't smoke, you can smoke yourself, it's fine."
Only then did the other party feel relieved, and lit a cigarette on his own.
The smell of smoke filled the car immediately.
"Since you claim to be a know-it-all here, you heard that something happened in the desert some time ago, do you know?"
Hearing Chen Xuan's words, the other party seemed to be afraid that Chen Xuan would question his ability, so he patted his chest and said, "Of course I know."
"It is said that a group of people who went to the desert to search for treasure found that there was an oasis in one place, but there was no water source."
"It is impossible to have an oasis without a water source, so they tried to dig down, and they dug out a kind of stone."
"The stone feels cool when you hold it in your hand. There is a big temperature difference between day and night in this desert. It is hot to death during the day and can freeze people to death at night."
"During the day, when they held the stone in their hands, it was like turning on the air conditioner. After they discovered the magical function of this stone, they brought some back to sell."
"Because of this miraculous function, those stones are sold at a high price."
"So the team looking for the treasure went to the oasis to look for the stone again."
"It's just that this time they arrived at the location according to the previous marks, but no matter what, they couldn't find the oasis anymore, so they had to go back again."
"It's just that the story of that stone has gradually spread, and more and more people are looking for that stone."
"A few gentlemen also came here for the stone, right? Actually, I have never seen that stone, but it is said that later, a small piece the size of a thumb can sell for millions."
"If only I could get a small piece too."
Hearing what the other party said, Chen Xuan couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
If it is not bad, the stones those people got should be Lingshi.
It's just that when they went there for the first time, they clearly saw an oasis, but they couldn't find it the second time.
With the accuracy of the current equipment, the possibility of them misremembering the location is very low, so it is possible that they did arrive at the place where the spirit stone was the second time. The reason why they did not find it is very likely that the spirit stone was used by someone. The formation was hidden.
"Could it be that some immortal cultivators have already gone to that kind of place and mined the Lingshi veins?"
Thinking of this, Chen Xuan couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
It was very difficult to find out the news about Lingshi. It would be very annoying if someone else got there first.
