Twenty-seven: The Earl's Secret
Various utensils were dazzling in the basement, and dozens of people wearing strange clothes were busy. The room was filled with a strange smell. Everyone didn't even look at the process from beginning to end. Geng and Luo Xiaohu.
"What are these people doing?" Cheng Geng asked strangely.
Luo Xiaohu said solemnly, "This is developing a potion to curse my stepfather's curse."
Cheng Geng said strangely, "Can curse be cured?" The curse in memory is engraved in the soul, and there is only one way to die unless the god appears.
Luo Xiaohu smiled and said, "The curse is not what you think. He is divided into many parts, such as my stepfather. This is a curse that forces the body to undergo changes. In English, this phenomenon is called genes. Everyone has genes, but there is no way to explain all this yet."
Cheng Geng nodded in a little bit of understanding.
Luo Xiaohu said, "You don't know that all the white jade bones here have a characteristic and are different. We are very troubled by this. This is also the purpose of my stepfather trying every means to collect the white jade bones. He wants to find a way to cure himself."
"Strange, why is only the white jade bone able to treat him?"
Luo Xiaohu said seriously, "Those white jade bones are all those who died after being cursed."
"This is impossible. If a person dies, his bones cannot form jade. Isn't this explainable?" Cheng Geng remembered that he saw the strange dry bones in Midi and Iceland. Although it took ten thousand years, there was no abnormality like the strange bones of white jade.
If it is true as Luo Xiaohu said, what kind of curse is it?
The Buddhist beads on Cheng Geng's body suddenly trembled, and the white jade bones soaked in the juice were rolling. If the juice boiled, the dozens of people's faces changed and they became excited.
Luo Xiaohu widened his eyes and looked at the white jade strange bones rolling in the juice, which slowly became soft and even began to melt. Luo Xiaohu became nervous and shouted at the people, "What happened? Hurry up, stop it." If the white jade strange bones are destroyed, it means that the count will never be saved.
At some point, the Count appeared in the basement. He looked at the strange white jade bones and said to the humans frantically, "Hurry, don't destroy the white jade bones."
The white jade bones melted and exploded in front of everyone's eyes, blending into the green branches and leaves, becoming extremely turbid.
The Count fell to the ground decadently, reached out to grab his hair, and his burned cheek was very ferocious and terrifying.
Luo Xiaohu stepped forward and comforted him, "Dad, don't be too sad. This is really strange. Things have never happened before."
The Count twisted in pain, opened his eyes and wailed, "Uhana, you will never let me go, God will destroy me." The Count shouted to the sky and grief.
Luo Xiaohu roared at those people, "What happened?" These dozens of people were scientific madmen hired by England. They just wanted to unravel the secret of the white jade bones, but for several years, they had never found a breakthrough, and even tried all existing methods. They did not find out what kind of changes had happened to the white jade bones, which could make people's bones look jade-like and extremely hard.
Those people shook their heads and didn't know what was going on, but they still didn't give up and approached the glassware and carefully observed the situation inside.
Luo Xiaohu approached, and the green juice in the glassware changed. The green juice gradually turned into a transparent color, as if something strange was swallowing the green body.
All the greens were restrained and concentrated into a ball, and in the entire glassware that gradually changed color, it seemed as if a ball of emerald green was soaked in clear water.
"What is that?" Luo Xiaohu asked excitedly.
The Frankenstein frowns, looked at each other in confusion, and said in a daze, "Dregs, the condensed dregs." But after observing for a long time, I found that they didn't look like it.
The green condensed into a ball of green gradually became clearer and sank down, falling to the bottom of the vessel, making a dull sound.
The Buddhist beads on Cheng Geng's neck trembled and he returned to peace.
Among those people, the thin old man looked deep and hurriedly returned to the table and picked up a long clip.
, walked towards the vessel, climbed onto the tripod, then put the iron clip into the vessel, and clamped the sediment. Everyone moved with the clip in his hand. He placed the sediment on the plate on the table, making a crisp sound.
The count also stood up, staring at the sediment with his eyes blankly, and then looked at the rest of the people beside him, but he didn't know what it was.
The skinny old man took out a magnifying glass, looked at it in the light for a long time, put down the magnifying glass in his hand, and said to the count, "It's a seed."
Isn't this a joke? If dozens of white jade bones are based on the transaction price of the Baibao Pavilion, it is an unimaginable wealth, but innocently turned into a strange seed. How is this possible? Everything in front of them cannot be believed.
The Count roared tremblingly, "Who can tell me what happened?"
The people looked at each other, wondering how to explain this very unreasonable phenomenon. The count suddenly looked at Cheng Geng, reached out and grabbed Cheng Geng's shoulder and said, "You, don't you still have one? Give it to me, give it to me quickly, only that one can save me."
"I'll get it to you later." Cheng Geng looked at the count blankly, and he was more afraid.
The count said anxiously, "No, now, we will go and get it now. It will be too late." His anxious eyes were full of excitement.
Cheng Geng was forced to walk out, the count returned to the room, walked out tremblingly for a long time, changed into the mask, and grabbed Cheng Geng and walked outside.
Luo Xiaohu opened the car door and let the count sit in. Then he sat in the cab, and Cheng Geng sat behind him. The car headed towards Qin Feng Bank.
What is the most unfair thing in this world? It is that he can enter and exit your territory at will, and when you go to his territory, you have to go with his consent.
After arriving at Qinfeng Bank, Cheng Geng walked inside, and Luo Xiaohu helped the count and followed him.
As soon as he entered the hall, Feng Yunlai hurried up and said happily, "Sir, welcome, I wonder what service you need this time?"
"Get something." Cheng Geng said lightly.
Feng Yunlai had been in Anxi for a long time and knew about consulates from various countries. When he saw the Count, he trembled all over and left Cheng Geng running towards the Count, respectfully came with Western etiquette, and bowed, "Sir Earl, why are you here in person? I wonder what can make the villain serve you?"
The Count waved his hand in annoyance and walked towards Cheng Geng, saying that he would also go to the four-person vault.
Feng Yunlai hurriedly stopped him and said, "Sir Earl, you cannot enter here without storing things here. Please forgive me."
The Count looked at Cheng Geng anxiously and looked at Luo Xiaohu. Luo Xiaohu nodded to Cheng Geng, and Cheng Geng walked towards the vault.
Cheng Geng skillfully opened the vault, looked at the mountains of treasures inside, took out the backpack and bag he had prepared in advance, and opened the box. The white jade bone was quietly lying in the box, and could see clearly the words on the white jade bone: strange phenomena from the sky, strange flowers blooming, life and death, flesh and white bones.
Cheng Geng remembered the count's appearance and trembled. He picked up the bag and put it on the white jade bones. Then he opened the boxes containing gold bars and took out a pack of gold bars.
Even if his strength grew, he might not be able to withstand such a heavy weight. When he appeared in the hall in front of him, the count walked up excitedly and snatched the package from Cheng Geng's hand, but his hand sank and fell to the ground. Dozens of big yellow croakers rolled out of the package, and the people around him showed a look of horror.
The count asked in surprise, "Where is the thing?" When he saw Cheng Geng's other package, he hurriedly reached out to grab it, but Cheng Geng directly stopped it.
The Count knew it and asked quickly, "Tell me, how many gold bars do you want?"
Cheng Geng ignored him and handed the package to Luo Xiaohu, "That's what your father left for you."
Cheng Geng picked up the gold bar on the ground and carried it on his back and walked outside.
The Count grabbed the package from Luo Xiaohu's hand and was about to open it trembled, but found that the crowd around him was staring at him.
He quickly turned around and ran into the car, opened the car door and got in.
After opening the package, he became excited when he saw the familiar white jade bones.
Suddenly, a car rushed over, stopped on the side of the road, and several people rushed out of the car, took out guns and surrounded the Count and Luo Xiaohu.
"Who are you?" Luo Xiaoshiji asked alertly.
"Go with us to avoid the pain of flesh and blood." He said that, and ran towards the front without saying a word.
Luo Xiaohu looked at the count worriedly and roared, "Run quickly." Before the count could react, he had been overwhelmed by the guns of those people. As long as he did not cooperate, those people would gently pull the trigger and could kill him at any time.
"If you act rashly, hum, I can take his life at any time." The leader threatened Luo Xiaohu.
Cheng Geng had already been hiding in the crowd and was almost discovered. He didn't know what these people were. He watched Luo Xiaohu and the Count were taken into the car.
The car gradually moved away, and Cheng Geng breathed a sigh of relief, but an arm stretched out from behind and gently patted Cheng Geng's shoulder.
Cheng Geng trembled, turned around and looked, and a smile came forward, then his head hurt so much that he fell to the ground with a dizzy feeling. The gold bar in the package fell to the ground.
The fragrance came and smelled very nice. He was so familiar with this smell. He opened his eyes and found that it was indeed in Zhangfu Villa, a place where he had spent several months.
He was filled with anger and jumped up from the bed and ran outside. He wanted to settle the score with Zhang Jingrui.
He ran into the person coming in and burst into tears. With a scream, the bowl fell to the ground and shattered, and the fragrance of the ground poured into his breath.
Zhang Jingfang was not in danger and fell outside. Cheng Geng quickly looked and stretched out his hand to wrap around Zhang Jingfang's waist. The two of them looked at each other, as if they were frozen at that moment.
"Ah Yeh."
The sound of coughing came. It was Zhang Jingrui, who coughed on purpose.
Cheng Geng quickly put down Zhang Jingfang and ran towards Zhang Jingrui angrily, "Why did you knock me out?"
"How much benefit did the count give you? What did you say?" Zhang Jingrui asked back.
Cheng Geng said angrily, "We have no agreement or transactions. Don't judge a gentleman by the heart of a villain."
"How do you explain that gold?"
Cheng Geng said angrily, "That's mine, my personal one, I use it to return it to Baibao Pavilion."
Zhang Jingrui smiled and said, "I didn't expect you would have that much money?"
"Stop talking nonsense, where is my gold bar?" Cheng Geng asked.
Zhang Jingrui shook his head and said, "I don't know where they took your gold bars."
"You, what do you mean?" Cheng Geng shouted, "You are robbing." Cheng Geng reached out and grabbed Zhang Jingrui's collar, "You pay me back the gold bar."
Zhang Jingrui shook his head and said, "Will I lack those gold bars for you?"
Cheng Geng said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense, give it back to me quickly."
"Are you just treating your savior like this?" Zhang Jingrui reached out and pinched Cheng Geng's wrist and flipped it gently. Cheng Geng felt a sharp pain in his wrist and hurriedly let go.
"You misunderstood my elder brother, it was my elder brother who saved you." Zhang Jingfang reminded.
"Impossible, I was obviously knocked out by him." Cheng Geng tried his best to think about what happened before he fainted, but he could never recall it. His smiling face was also very blurry. He looked at Zhang Jingrui and said, "Who was it? Who knocked out me and stole my gold?"
"Four Elders." Zhang Jingrui squinted Cheng Geng.
"Why? What's going on?" Cheng Geng became panicked.
"Because he is a traitor." Zhang Jingrui stared at him, his eyes showing murderous intent, "He is the traitor of Governor Yang."
"Why is this? Is he not the Cao Gang, but Mr. Zhang?" Cheng Geng had a deep impression of the fourth elder. He cared for Zhang Jingrui, but he did not expect that he would be a traitor.
Zhang Jingrui sighed, "The Fourth Elder has been kind to me, and I don't understand why he is like this."
