The two walked out of the dungeon, and the sun was shining brightly outside. Yan Shou glanced at the time, which was twelve o'clock noon.
If there wasn't a lot of mess left to clean up, there should have been a banquet for Yu Luming and others at noon. Yan Shouyi felt very sorry.
However, Liu Yiren is also a native of Rongcheng. She should be able to take everyone around, so Yan Shouyi doesn't have to worry.
Looking at each other with Wei Changqing, Yan Shouyi took out the Taoist Talisman and cast a spell to light it.
The Taoist talisman burned into ashes in an instant, turned into a wisp of green light and rose into the sky, before dissipating in the clouds.
After a while, the crow of a crow came from above the two of them. Not long after, a crow landed in front of the two of them and spit out a note from its mouth.
Are you actually using a crow to deliver the message?
Before Yan Shou could recover, Wei Changqing flicked his fingers and knocked the crow unconscious.
"This is not an ordinary crow. It will remember our appearance and go back to report to its owner. Once the other party knows our identity, they will know everything. So we can't put it back." Wei Changqing explained.
Yan Shou nodded and thought to himself that it was good that his second uncle was by his side, otherwise it might have been self-defeating this time. He originally wanted to trace the clues, but in the end he might have fallen into the trap of the Xinxuanshan Sect.
During the time when Wei Changqing was working with the actors, he was considered to be a junior high-level official and had some knowledge of the Xinxuan Mountain Sect. He had previously identified the true identity of the painter, and now he had stunned the crow who had tipped him off.
Said that every time he takes a shot is crucial.
"But if there is no crow to return to life, will the other party have doubts?" Yan Shouyi frowned.
Wei Changqing didn't care much: "It doesn't matter, crows are not animals at the top of the food chain. There are always a few missing every year."
It seems that missing crows also happen quite often.
After dispelling his doubts, Yan Shouyi picked up the note spit out by the crow and saw that it read: Meet at Jiazi Island at twelve o'clock tonight.
"Koshijima Island?"
Yan Shouyi frowned, where is this Jiazi Island?
However, since the other party proposed to meet in the evening, Jiazi Island must not be too far away, and should be around Rongcheng.
So he took out the map on his mobile phone and searched, and sure enough he found Koshijima.
To the east of Rongcheng is Guling, where the Liu family is located, and to the east of Guling is the sea.
In that sea area, the largest island is called Langqi Island. Jiazi Island is located three nautical miles north of Langqi Island. If you want to go to the island, you must take a ferry or speedboat.
Yan Shouyi searched for information about Jiazi Island and found that Jiazi Island was not large in area. It was an uninhabited island before, but was later contracted by a company to do aquaculture.
"Second Uncle, is this Jiazi Island related to the Xinxuanshan Sect?" Yan Shouyi asked.
Wei Changqing shook his head: "The Xinxuanshan Sect is secretive, and everyone does not know each other's details. However, based on the behavior of their group, Jiazi Island is probably their stronghold."
The information that could be found online was limited, so Yan Shouyi called two assistants, Lin Yu and Lin Yin, and asked them to investigate the information about Jiazi Island.
The two assistants were very efficient and responded to messages quickly.
First of all, the company that contracted Koshi Island was a shell company, and its legal person was just a construction worker at a certain construction site, so its identity information should have been used.
Secondly, after Koshi Island was contracted, although a lot of construction materials were transported to the island, it seemed that only a leisure villa was built in the end. As for raising seafood, it is nonsense.
Finally, Koshijima Island is protected by the local area and ordinary people cannot go to the island at all. However, some mysterious people will still go to the island by speedboat every month and stay for about three days to a week before leaving.
We were able to find out this information thanks to the Lin family's network. If it had been someone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't have been able to find out anything.
"The other party doesn't know the news about the failure of the skin painter yet, so the meeting is probably to arrange the next task," Yan Shouyi pondered for a while and said, "I think it is necessary for us to go to Jiazi Island."
"Just make your plan." Wei Changqing has never criticized Yan Shouyi's decisions.
Yan Shou nodded, and then left with a heavy heart.
He called a driver, and the destination was Ping'an Building. At the same time, he called Long Feicheng and the others and told them that Lu Jing and others were being held in Ping'an Building.
On the way, he thought carefully about his plans for the evening.
The car slowly stopped in the parking lot of Ping An Building.
Since Yan Shouyi eliminated Bai Shixi and others who were entrenched in Ping'an Building, Ping'an Building is no longer a haunted house. After the Lin family's renovation, it has been slowly opened to the outside world to attract investment.
It's just that because of Ping An Building's reputation, locals are flocking to it, so so far, only the bottom two or three floors of Ping An Building have been rented out, and no one is willing to rent the floors above.
It is worth mentioning that the largest tenant of Ping An Building is actually a haunted house escape room operator!
The other party came here specifically to open a haunted house because of the reputation of Ping An Building to create a wave of popularity.
Nowadays, young people like to seek excitement. Opening a haunted house in a well-known haunted building is a double thrill. I heard that their business is quite good.
After meeting Long Feicheng and the others, Long Feicheng saw the huge haunted house sign and the young ladies who were so frightened that their faces were pale and sweating on their foreheads. He couldn't help but laugh and said:
"If they knew that Ping An Building was really haunted before, they would still dare to come in... How about we put some real ghosts into their haunted house to help them enhance their experience?"
"You'd better save it!" Yan Shou rolled his eyes at him, "It's hard to rent out two floors of Ping An Building. If you make such a fuss, the merchant will have to cancel the lease again."
"Amitabha," Chang Shan asked, "Where are senior Lu Jing and the others being imprisoned?"
"Come with me." Yan Shou walked to the elevator and pressed the button for the eighteenth floor.
…
On the 18th floor of Ping An Building, in a dark room, more than a dozen core figures of the Lushan Sect were locked up here.
They have been held here for more than half a month, and the water and food they were initially brought in are about to run out.
Everyone was depressed and their eyes were numb. Even their spiritual support, the head of Lu Jing, had a finger cut off a few days ago.
This crisis is undoubtedly a matter of life and death for the Lushan Sect, but their core members can't do anything, and it's even questionable whether they can survive now.
Seeing everyone's numb and desperate look, Lu Jing, who was still injured, snorted coldly and said educationally:
"You are all the pillars of the Lushan Sect. The Lushan Sect has not yet fallen, and we cannot fall!"
