C554 Meet Old Friends
Hearing that scream, everyone's eyes focused on Zhou Yi.
"Who is this kid and what is his background? He even needs the mayor to personally interrogate him. Could he be the murderer?" The guard in charge of the cell opened his mouth beside Liu Tong's ear.
Liu Tong was also wondering about this. Hearing this question, his face sank as he said, "Just mind your own business. You're interrupting everywhere!"
Since Liu Tong said so, the jailer didn't dare to say anything else. He just smiled coyly and retreated.
Zhou Yi was led along by Liu Tong as they walked towards City Lord's Mansion.
"Where are you from?" Liu Tong wanted to find out from Zhou Yi what was so special about him.
"Medical Immortal City!" Zhou Yi's answer was simple and clear.
"Medical Immortal City?" Liu Tong knew that this was the address written on the paper registered with Zhou Yi. He didn't think much of it before, but now, after rummaging through it, he suddenly remembered the big battle half a year ago.
At that time, Wen Zhou's self-made play spread throughout the world and there was no one who didn't know that he buried that altar to the point it was worthless. In the end, he even sued the evildoer.
Where did you come from?
Liu Tong rubbed his chin as he pondered.
Zhou Yi originally wanted to ask why the mayor wanted to see him, but looking at Liu Tong's appearance, he might not know, so he just shut his mouth and obediently followed behind him.
However, Zhou Yi also had his own plan. It was just a routine inquiry in the city, if he really said or did something, Zhou Yi didn't plan on letting him go.
Thus, the two of them stayed silent all the way until the City Lord's Mansion.
The two gatekeepers knew Liu Tong, so they let Liu Tong and Zhou Yi in. Then Liu Tong brought Wu Tie to the City Lord's study without any obstructions.
"Mansion Lord, he's here!" Liu Tong knocked on the door and said respectfully.
"Bring him in!" An imposing voice came from inside.
However, when Zhou Yi heard this voice, he immediately laughed, "It must be you, old thing!"
The door was opened by Liu Tong. Then, he turned around and shouted at Zhou Yi, "Go in!"
Zhou Yi suppressed his laughter and walked into the room with a serious face. The mayor was sitting at the head of the room and looking at the door with a serious expression.
"You can leave!" The mayor waved at Liu Tong.
Liu Tong saluted and gave Zhou Yi an ambiguous look. Then, he took a step back and left the room, closing the door behind him.
"And here I thought you were dead!" The mayor spoke in a faint voice.
Zhou Yi laughed and said, "On the contrary, I think you must have run away."
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other and laughed.
"Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi, since when have I, Piao Soong, suffered a loss? I have been following behind you for a long time and finally entered the cave, but I had no choice but to retreat!" Piao Soong looked at Zhou Yi with an aggrieved expression. His expression was as if he was a wronged wife.
Zhou Yi waved his hand, "It's enough that you didn't go in. Do you know how many of those guys died? "How many are left?"
"They're all dead?" If he remembered correctly, those people were mostly from Universe Stage, could it be that they all died so easily?
Zhou Yi shook his head. He didn't know how many died, nor did he know about the rest. However, the situation on the sea wasn't any better.
"Then, how many benefits did you get? Do you want to split half of it with me?" Piao Soong said with a naughty smile.
Zhou Yi sneered in his heart. Give you half of it? He did not want to give him anything good from those thousand square meters of room.
Although he thought this in his heart, he still said, "Only a city lord like you can manage such a rotten city!"
Hearing that, Piao Soong retracted the smile on his face and said with a serious face, "Since you've helped me settle this, I won't take the treasures from you anymore. I'll even let you pick three random items from my treasury, what do you say?"
Zhou Yi pursed his lips, thinking that since he had just received the Manor Lord's inheritance, he naturally wouldn't think highly of Piao Soong's things.
However, when he thought about it again, he realized that this Piao Soong was a stingy iron rooster and a greedy and cheap person. He must have a lot of good stuff in his hands.
There were many techniques that could not be used to suppress others, so who would complain about having too many treasures?
Thus, he said, "Ok, deal!"
When Piao Soong heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. He smiled and said, "Good, good, good!"
Then, Piao Soong immediately handed over the files of the deaths to Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi opened the file and started to study it carefully.
This time around, seven people had died, all of them male. Other than that, there didn't seem to be anything else in common.
If they had anything in common, it would be that their cultivation bases were not high.
These ordinary people in the Immortal World were all the family members brought here by the almighty ones from before.
So even in the Celestial Realm, there are many people with low cultivation levels.
The cultivation of these seven people who died this time was basically around Divinity Stage.
However, from this, it could be seen that the cultivation of the perpetrator was not that high either. But why would he want so many lives?
Zhou Yi thought back to the half a year he lived in the secret realm. Could it be that those people also wanted to sacrifice something?
However, according to the standard of offerings, it didn't seem to be a high level item.
Thinking about this, Zhou Yi recalled what he heard from underground. Could it be that the death of these people is related to the Earth Dragon Tomb?
Seeing Zhou Yi staring at the file in deep thought, Piao Soong immediately poured him a glass of water and put it down. Piao Soong mumbled, "The way these people died was also weird, and for some reason, they suddenly became muddle-headed and spiritless. Even a few doctors didn't have a good time, and then they died in this mysterious way."
When Zhou Yi heard this, he flipped to the end of the file, which had detailed introductions of these people before they died written on them.
The repeated words caught Zhou Yi's eye: Three Outer Mountains.
"What kind of place is the Three Outer Mountain?" Zhou Yi pointed at the words on the scroll.
"It's about five kilometers outside of the Immortal City. It's filled with spiritual medicines, and many people go there to collect them. They either use it for their own purposes, or use it to sell it." Piao Soong explained.
"What is the passage below your prison?" Zhou Yi suddenly said.
"W-what?" Piao Soong didn't know how to react at the moment.
Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows: "You can't be thinking of telling me that you don't know about this!"
Piao Soong shrugged, "I really don't know about that. Under the prison? What path do I have down there? "
Hearing Piao Soong's words, Zhou Yi raised his head and looked at Piao Soong for a full ten seconds. Then, he faintly said, "How long has it been since you last came back?"
Piao Soong naturally knew what Zhou Yi meant. He immediately replied, "I come back often. I just stayed out with you for a little longer this time."
"Forget it!" Zhou Yi sighed. Anyway, whether or not there were tunnels was within the Immortal City and he wasn't interested in doing so. However, he was interested in that Three Outer Mountains …0
