Taoist Spirit Snake has been unhappy during this period. Although he has become the ruler of Waihai again, in fact, his power has been greatly weakened. In the past, he only had to be controlled by the Lingdu Continent and the outer sea monster clan. However, at that time, he felt like a fish in water being caught in the middle, and he could get the benefits of both sides. Good thing now, both sides are extremely distrustful of him. If it weren't for the lack of a suitable candidate, he would have been replaced long ago. If it was just like this, he could still survive. The problem was that there was a force in the outer sea that he was unable to resist at all. It's not that he has no resistance at all because of how powerful this force is, but that this force has completely mastered his stains, so that when he confronts people from this force, he doesn't have any toughness at all. He is not a lowly person, but he knows that his life is over, and if he wants to survive, he can only become someone else's puppet.
Life is so miserable. Taoist Ling She has also deeply reflected on it. In the final analysis, his choice back then made a big mistake. He originally thought that after the leader of the Ten Thousand Islands Alliance was captured, he would be able to erase this stain. For this reason, he also specially investigated the whereabouts of the deputy leader of the Ten Thousand Islands Alliance, Feng Dao Zhu, hoping to use Feng Dao Zhu's death to give himself Put an end to this stain. Unexpectedly, when he rushed to Baiyun Island in excitement and wanted to rectify the situation with the master of Feng Island, he was defeated miserably again. From then on, there was no happiness in his life.
Normally, Taoist Spirit Snake would stay in the city lord's mansion on Fisherman Island. In the past, he had tried so hard to get this.
However, when he got it, he became infinitely nostalgic for Spirit Snake Island and the magical Spirit Snake Secret Realm on Spirit Snake Island. It is a pity that in order to capture Du Tinghan, the secret realm of Spirit Snake has completely collapsed. From then on, Spirit Snake Island no longer has any magic. Sometimes, Taoist Spirit Snake wonders if he would do it again if he was given another choice. Strictly speaking, the inheritance of Spirit Snake Island is the Spirit Snake Secret Realm. Now that the secret realm is gone, the inheritance of Spirit Snake Island is also over. Every time Taoist Spirit Snake thought of this, he felt particularly stinging in his heart. It was also because of that choice. In the end, even Xiao Shi left him. People are really stupid. What are they trying so hard for?
Just as Taoist Spirit Snake was immersed in his daily regrets, something unexpected happened. After Taoist Spirit Snake received the message from the evil people on Baiyun Island, he became even more uncomfortable. Through this information, Taoist Spirit Snake learned that the investigation agency had set up its offshore branch on Ling Snake Island and asked him to go and investigate in person. If the evidence was conclusive, it must be banned and closed down.
Taoist Spirit Snake hates this kind of request. You must know that the investigation agency is originally an open information channel and is very popular in the spiritual world. Therefore, it is the freedom of the investigation agency to set up branches anywhere. However, having said that, after the Outer Sea was formed, the Outer Sea Cultivator Alliance and Lingdu Continent reached a consensus that the forces on Lingdu Continent were not allowed to extend their hands into the Outer Sea. Therefore, many forces adopted an agency system. model to expand its exposure to overseas markets
Influence. Therefore, the investigation agency has never explicitly said that they have established branches overseas. However, in fact, the investigation agency has set up sales offices on many offshore islands to trade intelligence with customers.
Taoist Spirit Snake thought for a long time, but could not find a good reason for the ban, so he could only reply, which meant that the ban was a bit difficult. After all, it was impossible to say whether the investigation agency was established as a branch or a sales department. Obviously, unless it is done forcefully, but in this case, it is likely to have a bad impact on the outer sea. Soon, Baiyun Island responded. Since you are asked to investigate, you should go there first and try to find evidence of the investigation agency's violations, so that it can be banned.
There was no other way, Taoist Spirit Snake could only do as he was told, so he embarked on a journey to Spirit Snake Island. Spirit Snake Island is the home base of Taoist Spirit Snake. It can be said that he knows every inch of the island like the back of his hand. Therefore, when he arrived at Spirit Snake Island, he soon discovered something strange. Taoist Spirit Snake came here for investigation. Naturally, he could not go to the island in a big way. Therefore, he made a lot of disguises about himself. Not only did he look like a completely different person, but he also wore a soul frequency blocker, and He suppressed his own realm and made himself look like an ordinary middle-aged male cultivator in the tribulation stage.
After wandering around for a while, Taoist Spirit Snake found that Spirit Snake Island no longer had the same business atmosphere as before. On the main commercial street, there were only a few open doors. Unfortunately, there were almost no people on the street, which made the street look particularly crowded. Deserted. This state
After all, Taoist Spirit Snake had already been mentally prepared before he came. At that time, although the location of Spirit Snake Island was not good, the business atmosphere was still very good. The reason was that Spirit Snake Island was rich in various elixirs, and of course there were spirit snakes. However, the spirit snakes were not for sale unless they were related to each other. . However, the elixirs of Spirit Snake Island are also very famous in the entire spiritual world. Therefore, a steady stream of merchants come to Spirit Snake Island to purchase them. Originally, if the Spirit Snake Secret Realm on Spirit Snake Island had not collapsed, before Spirit Snake Island had no spiritual energy, it would have been able to continue supplying it for at least ten or twenty years. As a result, after the secret realm collapsed, the elixir was suddenly out of stock, so , Spirit Snake Island no longer has an attractive place, and Taoist Spirit Snake has moved most of its foundation to Fisher Island, so Spirit Snake Island has completely fallen into decline.
Taoist Spirit Snake wandered around for a long time before finding an inn to stay in. In fact, he could have returned to live in his own city lord's mansion. However, when he was wandering around just now, he found that there seemed to be someone living in the city lord's mansion. Therefore, in order not to alert others, he quickly left the city lord's mansion and randomly found an inn on the street to stay.
Of course, the inn was also very depressed. Taoist Lingshe felt that he might be the only guest in the entire inn. Therefore, Taoist Spirit Snake took the initiative to chat with the waiter for a while, with the purpose of finding out who was currently living in the city lord's mansion. Since he was afraid of attracting the attention of the waiter if he asked directly about the city lord's residence, Taoist Spirit Snake made a roundabout conversation before bringing it up to the city lord's residence.
Originally, the waiter in the store was also listless.
He picked it up, but he didn't expect that when it came to the city lord's mansion, he suddenly became energetic. He stared and directly asked Taoist Spirit Snake if he came to Spirit Snake Island specifically to revitalize Spirit Snake Island.
Taoist Spirit Snake was very surprised and said: "Didn't I tell you that I came here to purchase some elixirs that are exclusive to Spirit Snake Island. But I didn't expect that Spirit Snake Island has become like this. I didn’t believe it before, and I thought I might have some chances, but I didn’t know that even the pharmacy here is closed.”
The waiter was not happy: "In this case, why don't you leave quickly and come to stay at an inn? Besides, you are not interested in Spirit Snake Island, why do you want to inquire about the City Lord's Mansion?"
Taoist Spirit Snake also got angry: "You are just a waiter in a shop, but you have a bad temper. Let me ask you what happened. Since all the people who used to live on Spirit Snake Island have moved away, there should be no one left in the City Lord's Mansion. I was wandering around just now. When I was there, I saw someone coming in and out, so I was a little curious, couldn't I ask?"
The waiter's expression suddenly changed: "Haha, I think you are interested in someone other than the people in the city lord's palace!"
Taoist Spirit Snake slapped the table: "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just asking. If you don't know, just go away."
Just as the waiter was about to retort, the shopkeeper who was hiding behind the counter spoke up: "Hurry up and clean up the room, the guests are still waiting to check in."
The waiter was very unhappy, so he cursed and left, leaving Taoist Spirit Snake alone in the living room sulking. Taoist Spirit Snake originally wanted to talk to the shopkeeper, but then he thought about it. When he was staying in the hotel, he didn't even say a word to him, so now that he ran over, he didn't want to talk to him.
It's asking for trouble.
Unexpectedly, a strange thing happened again. Before Taoist Spirit Snake could wait for the waiter to clean up the room, several people suddenly ran outside and came directly to Taoist Ling She, shouting: "Is it this guy?"
Taoist Spirit Snake was also a little strange, so he asked, "What do you do? Why did you come here to disturb me?"
"Excuse me, we will lock you up later. Are you, an old boy, inquiring about the City Lord's Mansion?" One of the fierce-looking bald men shouted.
Taoist Spirit Snake looked at the innkeeper and saw that he was looking at him as if he were laughing. He naturally understood that someone must be up to something. Otherwise, if he asked the waiter, he would not have been known to others so quickly. .
"What's the matter with my two questions? Doesn't the current Spirit Snake Island even teach the basic principles?" Spirit Snake Taoist knew that there was no point in denying it, so he simply admitted it.
"If it were reasonable, Spirit Snake Island wouldn't be like this. Now I'll give you two ways. Either come with us and talk to us if you have anything to say. Otherwise, get out of Spirit Snake Island now." Bald Head continued. shouted.
"Follow you, where are you going?" Spirit Snake Taoist asked.
"Don't you want to know who is in the City Lord's Mansion? Let's go to the City Lord's Mansion to satisfy your curiosity to the greatest extent."
Taoist Spirit Snake thought for a moment and then made his choice. Since others were coming to his door, he couldn't let himself go. After all, the City Lord's Mansion was also his home. Would anyone dare to deal with him in the City Lord's Mansion? If there is such a fool, it would be a good time to vent
Vent your anger, otherwise people will think you are just a peacemaker and anyone can sit on his head and shit.
Originally, Taoist Spirit Snake was afraid that these people would fight against him, and he might have to put in some effort. As a result, the fight didn't start at all. In the end, he was sandwiched between these people, and then walked towards the city lord's mansion. Fortunately, there were no people on the street, so the whole process went smoothly. Even if someone on the street saw this situation, they would shrink their necks and run away, as if they didn't see it.
Taoist Spirit Snake felt very uncomfortable along the way. When he saw the behavior of passers-by, there was something he didn't understand. This shows that although there are no people on Spirit Snake Island now, these people have become a whole, otherwise, they would not have been discovered so quickly. The problem is that even though he gave up Spirit Snake Island, there are still not all his tribe members left on Spirit Snake Island. Since people have been left behind, he has not heard anything about the current situation on Spirit Snake Island, so there is a big problem here. The most likely possibility is that the remaining tribesmen have betrayed themselves. Otherwise, there is no way that he would not be aware of such a serious situation.
Spirit Snake Taoist thought, no wonder the evil people on Baiyun Island asked him to come over to investigate. So, could it be said that his Spirit Snake Island has been controlled by the investigation agency, and his own people have become spies of the investigation agency, and His own eyes and ears were blinded by them.
The City Lord's Mansion was not far away, so it didn't take long for the group to arrive at the City Lord's Mansion. Finally, Taoist Spirit Snake was brought to
In the main hall of the city lord's mansion, everyone else left, leaving only the bald man by his side. Taoist Spirit Snake looked around, but no one came to him for a long time, which made him a little anxious. He thought to himself, should he put this bald man down, and then investigate alone in the city lord's mansion.
Just when Taoist Spirit Snake was hesitating, he suddenly heard footsteps in the distance. The footsteps were very light. He knew it was a woman. As the footsteps got closer and closer, Taoist Spirit Snake became excited, because , this footsteps is so familiar, this is clearly my granddaughter Xiao Shi!
