Chapter: 2637
Ye Chen looked at Mai Chengxing at this moment, and said indifferently: "You have made meritorious deeds for helping me catch Xuan Fengnian, but you are cunning and overly self-interested, and you also helped my enemy come to Jinling to find my whereabouts. It is not enough to offset all faults, so from now on, I will put you and Mike under house arrest in Jinling, and I will let you leave after I get rid of Su Chengfeng."
Mai Chengxing's expression was very bitter, but he also knew in his heart that it was useless to beg Ye Chen for mercy, and it was useless to show loyalty to Ye Chen.
This is because Ye Chen already had a steelyard in his heart, and as a result, he had already determined that he would never change his own decision because of others' begging for mercy or submission.
The Xuan Fengnian just now is the best example.
Therefore, the best choice for me right now is to be obedient and let Ye Chen take care of me.
Although house arrest is painful, at least it can preserve life.
If I cooperate well with Ye Chen in the future, I may have a chance to make up for my mistakes.
So, he bowed down, and said respectfully: "Young Master Ye's decision, I have no objection, everything is decided by Young Master Ye..."
Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction, and said, "In that case, follow me back."
Mai Chengxing quickly agreed, but when he raised his head and stood up, he suddenly let out an exclamation.
"Huh?! Could it be that Xuan Fengnian was struck by lightning and released a relic?"
After Ye Chen listened, he subconsciously looked at the place where Xuan Fengnian was smashed into powder by lightning, and he saw a gray-brown thing the size of a duck egg on the ground.
He couldn't help frowning, and said, "How can a relic be so big? I think it might be a kidney stone?"
"That's not right..." Mai Chengxing said, walking over involuntarily, and picked up the gray-brown thing.
He looked at it carefully for a moment, and couldn't help exclaiming: "My God! This... this is actually ambergris!"
"Amberx?" Ye Chen frowned. He had dragged Qin Gang to help find Ambergris a few days ago, but he didn't expect that Xuan Fengnian had one on him.
However, Ye Chen didn't care too much.
Because ambergris is actually not uncommon.
Rich people can buy it at any time as long as they are willing to spend money.
Back then, when I met Yu Jinghai at the Zhenbao Pavilion auction, there was a Song Dynasty Songhe Backflow Incense Burner in the Zhenbao Pavilion. At that time, in order to make the Songhe Backflow Incense Burner sell at a high price, the auctioneer specially prepared it. Ordered two boxes of ambergris.
And what Ye Chen needs for alchemy is ambergris that is at least ten thousand years old, and ordinary goods have no meaning at all.
So, he said to Mai Chengxing: "This thing should be nothing unusual, I don't know what Xuan Fengnian is doing with such a thing with him."
Mai Chengxing hurriedly said: "Master Ye, you don't know something. If it is ordinary ambergris, it is waxy, and this thing is relatively flammable. As long as it is dry ambergris, it can be burned directly on the fire." But this one is a bit special."
As he spoke, he continued: "After being struck by your heavenly lightning, even Xuan Fengnian's flesh and blood was turned into powder, but this ambergris can still be preserved intact, which shows that this piece of ambergris The incense has turned into a fossil!"
"Turned into a fossil?!"
Ye Chen exclaimed, stepped forward, and asked, "Are you sure this thing is really a fossil?"
Mai Chengxing handed the piece of ambergris to Ye Chen, and explained: "Master Ye, you can see for yourself, this thing is now extremely hard and extremely dense, and it is no longer waxy, but more like a stone. It's not that the texture is relatively special, and I may not recognize it as ambergris."
Ye Chen asked curiously: "Have you ever discovered ambergris fossils before?"
Mai Chengxing hurriedly said: "There are, but they are abroad, and they were bought by mysterious people at a very high price as soon as they came out."
Ye Chen asked him: "Do you have research on ambergris?" JrNovels.com
