Ye Lan took a big gulp of the tea soup prepared by Jueyun Jiaojiao, couldn't help but licked her lips, and then explained to Famas in a sincere tone why Wen Yuan looked at him.
"...Then Miss Yelan, as you said, the surveillance of me by the intelligence officers at Yanshang Teahouse was a complete coincidence?"
Famas quietly listened to Ye Lan's story and asked with interest.
"Not bad..."
Perhaps it was because the gaze cast by Famas was too cold and the look of disdain in those red eyes was too hot.
Looking at the young man in front of him who had no clear position and could give people a huge sense of oppression with just a few words, Ye Lan felt an unprecedented crisis.
Force, strategy, knowledge... these things that take human families hundreds of years to accumulate are all things that the old demons can come and go at the drop of a hat.
As the guardian of the shadow of Yangang, Yelan does not mind using any means to solve all problems that may threaten the country, but she also knows that unless the Yanwang Emperor is resurrected, it will be difficult to shake the law with all the strength of Hong Kong.
Mars half a point.
A powerful demon with almost no weaknesses sat in front of him, making Ye Lan, who was used to controlling the overall situation, feel helpless and absurd.
"Okay, I believe this is a misunderstanding."
Famas crossed his arms and nodded in agreement with Ye Lan's words without hesitation.
Seeing that the other party was so easy to talk to, Ye Lan, who was already prepared to bear the wrath of the gods, was a little surprised, but the boy's next words made Ye Lan couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Then, can Miss Ye Lan pay for the losses caused by this misunderstanding?"
Famas stared at the other person's emerald eyes with meaning, and Yelan could only sigh in her heart and responded with a cold and slightly low tone: "Then what compensation do you hope to get?"
Finally talking about the topic he was interested in, Famas thought for a moment and looked out the window of the tea room. It happened to be evening at this time, the clouds on the horizon were dyed into gradient and magnificent colors, and the last rays of the sunset fell on the sea.
Sparkling.
"As an intelligence officer directly under Tianquan Star, Miss Ye Lan will definitely have news about Ning Lan, the director of Yin Yuan Hall."
"I am very curious about her life and whereabouts...and what she is planning."
Famas put forward the terms of compensation, and upon hearing Ning Lan's name, Ye Lan suddenly opened her eyes wide, and then looked at the young man with a normal expression suspiciously.
What Famas didn't know was that, in addition to Pantalone who had arrived at Liyue Port, Ninglan from the Silver Plains Hall, Zhongli from the Hall of Rebirth, and a certain traveler from a foreign land were all Yelan's key surveillance targets.
.
"We have done background checks on all Liyue residents... Miss Ninglan, of course, is there too."
Ye Lan's green eyes narrowed slightly, and she did not shy away from secretly investigating the residents' identity information. On the contrary, her body tensed up, and her eyes were fixed on Famas's indifferent eyes, as if she planned to judge from the change in his expression that the young man was asking this question.
The purpose of things.
"Your Majesty Harpas, may I venture to ask about your relationship with Miss Ninglan?"
Famas did not expect that Yelan's reaction would be so weird. He looked as usual and responded to the other party's question casually: "I have no friendship with her. I am just asking for an old friend who was recently resurrected." p>
Hearing Famas's unreliable answer, Ye Lan frowned.
Of course she knew that this war lord could perform miracles of resurrection, and the names Yinyuan Hall and Ninglan involved too many people and events. Without being able to judge the other side's position, Yelan really didn't want to put these things together.
The secret is revealed.
But Famas stared at the thoughtful Ye Lan with bright eyes, waiting for the other party's response.
"Your Majesty Harpas, have you ever heard of the [Wish Stone] produced by the Great Stratified Abyss?"
Ye Lan hesitated several times, and calmly used the magic weapon to send a message to his subordinates who had quietly emptied the entire tea room at this time, asking them to stay alert, and then asked in a lowered voice.
"No."
Although he was somewhat familiar with the name Wish Stone, Famas still shook his head in denial without hesitation.
Hearing this, Ye Lan understood immediately and began to explain the major case of the Wish Stone that shocked Liyue and forced Qixing to set up the Pan Key Seal.
"This matter started three years ago. At that time, some miners claimed that when they were mining minerals in the mines of the Great Abyss, they accidentally discovered a certain kind of ore that was said to be able to fulfill all wishes and sold it.
Making profits attracted the common people and wealthy businessmen to rob."
"But a few days later, the first few miners who unearthed the [Wish Stone] went crazy and lost their minds. Their families sued Yujingtai on the grounds that the protective measures for workers in the mining area were not in place. Qixing investigated the incident overnight.
For this reason, they then used thunderous measures to purge the teams of Shenglu Hall and Huishan Hall that were in charge of the Bedyan Mining Area at that time, and after several evaluations, sealed the Bedyan Juyuan Mining Area."
Ye Lan tapped her temples with her fingers. She had a very good memory and had read many secret files. She was very knowledgeable when it came to the inside story of such gray area cases.
"The investigation report finally released by the General Affairs Department characterized the ore as a crystal of toxic substances that can emit radiation. The so-called wish fulfillment is nothing more than an hallucination caused by the changes in the nerves and brain caused by radiation."<
/p>
"Although Qixing has clearly explained the cause and effect of the matter and confiscated the fragments of the wish stone circulating in the market, to this day, there are still people who firmly believe that the stone that fulfills wishes exists."
"And among these devout believers, Miss Ning Lan is included."
Yelan's expressionless explanation finally led the topic to Yinyuan Hall.
"A week ago, a batch of "wishes stone fragments" claimed to have come from a secret channel under the mines flowed into Liyuefang City. It was rumored that they were samples that flowed from the hands of the Fool researchers who had evacuated from the Strata Abyss. However, there are also rumors that they were samples.
A private sale by a certain big shot who is shaded by the Seven Stars... No matter what, this thing is not available on the market and can only be purchased through the introduction of acquaintances."
Yelan took off the brocade bag hanging from her waist, twisted out a small fragment from it with her thumb and index finger, and placed it on the table.
"It's blue, it glows, it's thin, and the workmanship is just that. In fact, it's almost the same as the crude amulets at tourist attractions. There's nothing special about it."
Famas saw the sample displayed by Ye Lan and already knew what the so-called wish stone was.
"The main body of the [Wish Stone] is a large pillar that cannot be hugged by several people. It emits blue light and has inscriptions engraved on it. It is suspended in the air deep in an underground mine. Occasionally, it can be heard.
A low chanting sound came from the stone pillars."
Famas helplessly held his forehead and described the appearance of Hantian Nail in as much detail as possible.
"You described it very accurately."
Yelan stared at the boy curiously, as if she was wondering why he knew so clearly, but she quickly realized that Famas was a demon that had existed for thousands of years, so it was not surprising that she had seen similar things. "So do you have any clues about the [Wish Stone], or the origin of this heavenly stone pillar?"
It is the nature of every intelligence officer to explore secrets, and even Yelan is no exception. She asked her questions very seriously, but Famas's response was a bit joking.
"Of course, I broke several stone pillars like this back then."
"If I had known that making wishes had the effect, I would have collected those fragments and made a wish. Morax choked on his tea and fell while walking."
Famas nodded with a smile, and then asked Yelan: "So according to your investigation, what does Miss Ninglan plan to do with these wish stones?"
Hearing Famas's question, the expression on Yelan's face suddenly became serious, and the bracelet on her right hand flickered, making her look quite mysterious.
"Yinyuan Hall...perhaps plans to use this to prepare the ceremony for inviting immortals."
"It's just that the immortal they invited is a demon named [Heulia]."
