Tie Hand, who had been silent all this time, pushed Qing Qing to leave the courtyard.
This courtyard assigned by Wanyicheng City Guards is located on Wanghou Street, in Yixiang City District, and belongs to the wealthy area of Wanyicheng City.
On the spacious bluestone streets, purple-faced plane trees planted on both sides cast large shades.
The breeze blew by, and the fragrance of flowers similar to gardenias escaped. The palm-sized sycamore leaves fell gently like purple butterflies, and were then grabbed by white and jade hands.
The speed of pushing the wheelchair slowed down. Tie Shou, who had always been taciturn, glanced at his expressionless friend on the chair and finally spoke:
"So, is this person suspicious?"
The two of them came here, naturally, not as an ordinary visit to win over, but their real intention was to find a way to investigate in a gentle way.
"What suspicion are you talking about?" Qing Qing played with the sycamore leaves in his hands and chuckled.
"Of course he is the suspect of the Sea Festival." Tie Shou frowned, "According to intelligence, this Lingtai Sect Buddha Head possesses some kind of left-field technique, which can absorb people's energy and spirit, and use it to practice. His methods are cruel and evil.
To some extent, it is similar to the Sea Festival. "
In fact, if they were not afraid of the latter's strength, they would have taken coercive measures and detained him first.
"The sea exploration order didn't show up, and the execution time didn't match up. I'm 70% to 80% sure it's not him." Wuqing responded in a low voice and threw the sycamore leaf in his hand to the ground.
"But the death of the killing monk must be inseparable from it." His voice was low, and his tone had an unconcealable solemnity.
Tie Shou was stunned for a moment, then continued to push the wheelchair away from the courtyard behind him.
The streets of Wanghou Street are filled with dignitaries or martial arts magnates, so it is very quiet on weekdays.
It wasn't until we walked around two streets that the sounds of hawking, running, talking and laughing began to increase, and gradually started to get a bit smoky.
"Just now, the Fenghuaxuejian given to me by the Holy One is warning. The warning level has reached the 'moon' level, which means that the other party has the ability to pose a threat to our lives." At this time, Qingwucai whispered in a low voice.
In a business like theirs, the risks are actually extremely high. You never know, and you might offend someone without even realizing it.
It is common to stumble accidentally.
Even his legs were disabled because of an accident that year.
Later, the current Emperor Qi Guang felt his plight and gave him a secret treasure called Fenghuaxuejian out of pity.
The treasure mirror is a real secret treasure. One of its functions is that after being warmed day and night, it can simulate the corresponding strength, and then provide early warning based on the strength of the warriors appearing within a radius of one kilometer.
Among them, the 'month' level means that it can easily pose a life threat to the owner...
"With Wu Qing's current strength, is it possible that this person has broken through that level?" Tie Shou was silent for a moment and then spoke slowly.
"I didn't smell the scent of the Dharma, but that's not important. The Fenghuaxuejian will not be wrong." The ruthless smile turned bitter.
"If we haven't broken through, he has the strength to threaten you and me... This person... is a bit scary." Tie Shou was a little dignified.
"It's okay. At least for now, it seems that Master Qingliang is extremely friendly to us. This is my intuition. Over the years, my intuition has never been biased towards me." Qingqing opened the folding fan with a snap and comforted.
"I hope so. If something really happens, we have to wait until Shenhou and the others arrive." Tie Shou said in a muffled voice.
Just as the two of them were walking through the street, a figure suddenly jumped out of the alley ahead and respectfully handed over a letter sealed with fire paint.
"Magic arrest, there is urgent news from a secret agent. Another case of sea sacrifice has appeared. Xiaolongwei is leading people there and happened to surround the murderer. Now we are asking for support."
Wuqing took the letter, picked it up with his fingertips, scratched the paint, glanced at it quickly, and handed it to the iron hand behind him.
After a few breaths, the two looked at each other and disappeared into the crowd together.

Seven Seas, Golden Turtle Island.
The island shaped like a turtle is extremely huge. The rock material all over its body is pale yellow, and there are numerous reef bulges on its four legs, which are exposed on the sea surface.
At the head of the turtle, there are three ports and piers, row upon row of buildings, densely packed on the plain.
In the past, these three wharfs and ports were full of big ships and thousands of sailboats day and night, making them very lively. However, at this time, something unexpected happened and they seemed extremely deserted.
At the pier, rows of disciples were patrolling and guarding, with worried faces and a somewhat strange atmosphere.
On a mountain peak in the center of the island, there is a Taoist temple.
The Taoist temple is not big. Apart from the main hall, there are only two side halls and three wing rooms. There is a small courtyard surrounded by fences at the back, where some vegetables and fruits are planted.
In the center, there is a small pond. In the clear water, a group of large carp with golden and red scales are swimming.
At this time, a man in green robes was standing by the pond.
The man's long hair is shawled, and the upper end is tied with a sapphire turtle hair crown.
His appearance is a bit weird, his facial features are a bit old, but his skin is extremely fair, like fine suet jade, and his long shawl hair is half white and half black, divided by a line in the middle, which is very neat.
The whole person stood by the pond, carefully scattering the fish feed in his hands, giving people a sense of peace and tranquility.
Chihaihou Wang Yuanyang walked quickly into the courtyard and looked at the Taoist in front of him with a look of respect.
As the second person on the Golden Turtle Island in the Zhenhou Sea area, which is known as the Chihai Thousand Miles, there is only one person on this island who is qualified to make him behave like this.
That is the number one person in the Seven Seas Inner Sea, the number one person in martial arts who has really suppressed this sea area for thirty years, Bi Yang Zhenren.
"Real person, we already know the people involved in this investigation on the Shangmeng League. They are Beihai Yidao Shengying, the deputy gang leader of the Haichao Gang, the leader of the Double Swords Alliance, A Fei, the Death Sword, as well as Yin Xuna, the great elder of the Water Dragon Clan, and the elder of the Blue Eyed Shark Clan. Sebotan." Wang Yuanyang said in a deep voice.
Every name that comes out of his mouth has an extraordinary origin and spreads to the outside world, which is enough to make the entire Qihai Martial Arts world read.
Even he couldn't help but look solemn.
However, Master Biyang's face remained calm, and he was still feeding the bait little by little, with a large group of golden and red carp gathering in front of him.
All of them were very active and jumped out of the water, waiting to be fed.
"There are quite a few people here. I didn't expect Yin Xuna and Saibotan to come too, haha." After a few breaths, he chuckled softly.
After smiling, he turned his head and looked at Wang Yuanyang with a calm expression:
"How many people have left the island in the past three days?"
Wang Yuanyang is a tall man, more than three meters tall, wearing a golden robe with a three-head Xuanwu tattoo embroidered on the robe.
But at this moment, such a majestic man showed a look of struggle:
"Zhenzhen, in the past three days, except for the ordinary people like us, all the people who want to leave are the Great Zhenjun. It is initially estimated that there are five people, the Zhenjun has nineteen people, and as for the Zhenjun, there are countless people. ,
Recently, there are still people who have been colluding with each other, and this number is expected to expand..."
He said, and finally couldn't help it: "Zhenzhen, why don't we stop you at all? These people, even if they don't want to join us, can still be our strength... Just do it like this, why don't they all run away?"
Biyang Zhenren shook his head when he heard this, "Jinluo Island has always believed in the primacy of all things. It does not reject those who come and does not keep those who go. This has been the case for thousands of years. Why should it change?"
In fact, up to now, they have no longer concealed their affairs with Qian Yujie internally.
Since the opening of the Jiudu battlefield in Taizhou, such a choice has naturally seemed very unusual.
After the news came out that the Seven Seas Alliance would launch an investigation into Golden Tortoise Island, the trees fell and the hozens scattered. For most people, it was natural to be frightened and uneasy. It was normal for them to want to leave now.
It is only human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
He had no reason to object, nor was he qualified to object.
It's like he can only make his own choices, but he can't make them for everyone.
This is also the reason why he deliberately dealt with the envoys from the Seven Seas Alliance for so long.
But now, it seems that it is almost reaching its limit.
"Yuan Yang, you are scared." Bi Yang threw the last handful of fish feed into the pond and said softly.
"I'm afraid that the accumulation of decades will be wiped out in one day, and I'm afraid that my wife, children, and close friends at home will be affected."
"Yuanyang... no..." Wang Yuanyang's fists in his long sleeves were clenched unconsciously.
"I will die if I hear the Tao in the morning. This is what you told me, Zhenren. Now that I have found my Tao and the direction to move forward, how can I be afraid?"
"hehe……"
Bi Yang chuckled, naturally seeing his little move, but she didn't point it out and nodded:
"Hear the Tao in the morning and die in the evening. In this era, everyone has his own destiny, but everyone also has his own path to pursue."
He looked at the fish vying for food in the pond at his feet:
"I have always thought before destiny, how much can be changed by human power alone...
Now I have figured it out. Although everything in the world will eventually be determined, as long as you try your best, there will be nothing to regret even if you fail. "
Wang Yuanyang didn't say anything. He didn't believe in destiny.
What he pursues is only strength. In his eyes, all failures are just insufficient strength.
Just like when he was down and out, he allowed others to bully him even though he bore the surname Zhou, and just like now, even in Qihai, there are many former clan members who visit him every year.
All the differences are strength!
"You're going to get everything you want, and I'm going to get everything I want."
Bi Yang suddenly spoke up.
"Together with Qianyu Realm, although we are seeking skin from a tiger, we are still trying to find another way.
If you want to attain the Tao but are not willing to take any risks, that is a false Tao! "
Master Biyang's calm face suddenly became agitated, and complex blue patterns bulged on his forehead.
He has always believed in equivalent exchange and firmly believes that nothing is free in the world. Everything has its price set since it appears.
Now that he has chosen this path, he is naturally prepared to bear the corresponding price.
"That's it... we'll start tomorrow..." he said softly.
"Yes!" Wang Yuanyang was silent for a while and responded in a deep voice.
After saying that, he lowered his head slightly, then turned and left.
Biyang Zhenren watched him leave and slowly closed his eyes.
Stab.
I don’t know how much time passed, but suddenly there was the sound of a tearing cloth in the pond at my feet.
He opened his eyes.
I saw countless large golden and red carp jumping out of the water in the small lining under my feet.
They were struggling, with strange bumps appearing on their bodies, as if they were suffering some kind of pain.
As it kept jumping out of the water, the pustule began to split open, and countless centipede-like appendages appeared.
As for the fish head, the carp's unique fish whiskers become thicker and harder, twisting upward, and ferocious dark teeth grow in the fish's mouth...
Looking from a distance, these carps actually look a bit like dragons!
Even the sound is as annoying as a baby crying.
thump!
The next moment, a 'carp' jumped out of the water and landed right in the hands of Biyang Zhenren.
Just like a fish leaping over a dragon's gate, its body became slender, smooth, and a bit like a snake.
"This is the price..." He stroked the carp in his hand, then threw it into his mouth and chewed it.
With a banging sound, the sapphire turtle crown on his head broke apart, and his long black and white hair fell down, covering his entire face.

Wow!
Rapid waves crashed on the rocks.
puff!
A flash of silver light flashed.
The turbulent waves were cut open in an instant, leaving a long black road.
next moment.
In the black hollow, two corpses floated up from the bottom of the sea. Red blood filled the air, and was then washed away by the closing waves.
"Still want to leave? Do you really think you can leave?"
On a narrow wooden boat, a man was wearing a blue robe, with a white belt tied with a bow on his back, and three sword scabbards on his waist. At this time, he danced the sword in his hand, put it back into its sheath upside down, and murmured to himself. language.
"Yagyu, don't investigate, just take action, is that okay?" A Taoist holding a fly whisk behind him said softly with a slight frown on his brows.
"It's not necessary. Jinli Island is too stupid. I don't know what disease he committed, and he took this road." The man raised his head. There was a knife mark on the tip of his nose on his tough face, and there was a glimmer of light in his eagle-like eyes.
"The Sea Clan has sent out the member of the Water Dragon Clan. You must know his new breakthrough. The Water Dragon Clan is the only top ten Sea Clan that does not have territory in the Seven Seas. The meaning is already obvious. Therefore, at this point, the investigation results Whether it’s true or false, it doesn’t matter anymore.”
He looked at the huge island in front of him with anticipation.
"Let's go. If it's too late, we won't even have a drink of soup."
You must know that Jinli Island has a long history, and with the education and non-discrimination, it can be said to be an extremely rich inheritance. Even he can't help but be tempted. For him, this investigation can be said to be a key step to supplement his accumulation.
Thinking of this, he was even more looking forward to it. He greeted the Taoist beside him and wanted to leave by boat.
The next moment, the surrounding sea water suddenly became quiet.
Countless black shadows emerged from under the sea.
That's a fish...
No...not a fish!
These original sea fish have a long and narrow body, with twisted and upside-down scales. They also have ferocious mouthparts, and their bodies are mostly covered with flesh and tentacles.
Like a turtle, like a snake...
One after another, they rushed out of the water, like jumping through a dragon gate, covering the two of them.
"Late?"
"Can you tell Pindao that little friend Yagyu is in such a hurry? Is it possible that he wants to rush to death?"
Suddenly,
A disheveled Taoist in green clothes appeared on the water at some point, staring at the man who was being bitten by countless strange fish.
The two of them were like logs, motionless, just standing there, their bodies slowly being piled up by the fish.
