Chapter 3960 Investigation Information
Further down, Xiao Yi's soul power could not penetrate into it, even at the current level, it was still impossible to do so. It seemed that there was an invisible restriction in the water, blocking the spread of Xiao Yi's soul power.
After a rough count, there were more than 20 iron chains. I don't know how long they have been in the water. The iron chains are already rusty, emitting a heavy force, suppressing the strange beasts in the water.
What kind of monster is it that needs to be imprisoned in this way? Xiao Yi couldn't help but feel a little curious in his heart, and the soul power continued to rise.
For more than 20 days, the iron chains gathered in one place, which is the center of the lake. At this position, looking up corresponds to the stars in the sky.
Echoing the stars in the sky, there is a set array. In this array, a steady stream of Taoism is gathered here, and finally merged into the water, disappearing without a trace.
A large array that was originally a combination of many sealing arrays, but someone was playing tricks in the middle, setting up such an alien, which weakened the power of the sealing array too much at once.
According to the original intention of the formation, it should be to completely seal the beast in the water until the moment of annihilation. The formation that appears now is quite interesting. The purpose is to allow the beast to retain a glimmer of life.
Absorbing the external Dao Qi to compete with the sealing formation, perhaps this person with ulterior motives is also waiting for that day to come. Once the formation is loosened, the beast in the water will come back to the world.
"What a strong ban. I can't penetrate it with my current ability. I really don't know who set the ban at the beginning."
Xiao Yi wanted to penetrate the ban and take a peek at the face of the beast, but it seemed that he couldn't do it. There were four levels of heaven, earth, and yellow. When the power of the soul could enter the earth level, it would be easy to break the ban here.
Unable to find out, he had to give up this plan and lie quietly on the boat with his eyes closed. After a while, the boatman had rowed the boat to the other side.
"Xiao Yi has arrived at the shore."
The boatman and Xiao Yi also became acquaintances. At this time, he talked to Xiao Yi, and Xiao Yi half-closed his eyes and dozed off.
"Are we there yet? It's rare to have some free time. I really want to lie here and have a good sleep."
"I will never ask about or participate in your affairs, Xiao Yi. To put it bluntly, I am just a person who lives outside the world. But I understand one thing: you need to combine work and rest to do things."
"Maybe. When I finish all the things in my hands, I will definitely come here to recuperate for a while. But now I am not qualified to talk about rest."
Xiao Yi jumped up from the boat, but he was still very grateful for the boatman's words. He walked up the stone steps and came to the Dawn Villa. Today, he had something to talk to the third elder about.
After Xiao Yi left, the boatman looked at Xiao Yi's back thoughtfully, stroking his beard, as if he thought of something.
"You are right. You still have a long way to go. There is no reason to stop now."
An irrelevant person seemed to know Xiao Yi very well at this time. The boatman was no longer the boatman before, and there was a mysterious atmosphere all over his body.
After receiving the news that Xiao Yi was coming to the villa, the third elder mentioned that he was waiting for his arrival in the villa and prepared everything Xiao Yi might need.
In a hall, holding a duster, he was dusting the dust on the table. Since Zhuque left, he became taciturn and often stayed here alone for a whole day.
Zhuque was all the sustenance and hope of the third elder, and all his thoughts were poured into this apprentice, but in the end, he didn't even see Zhuque for the last time when he left.
As a master, he didn't blame his apprentice for doing something wrong, but in this way, Zhuque chose a road of no return. He didn't have much time left, and he didn't know if he could see Zhuque when he was alive.
Or maybe by that time, Zhuque had already become another person. The last wish of the third elder in this world was to see his apprentice for the last time, which would become the biggest regret of his life.
Xiao Yi stepped into the hall. The hall was spotlessly clean. As an outsider, he felt embarrassed to set foot and disturb the quiet here.
On the table, there was an incense burner, which was emitting a wisp of green smoke and a faint fragrance. Xiao Yi had just walked into it when the third elder, who was cleaning nearby, heard the noise and turned around.
"Are you here?"
"Yes! Third elder, you are still alive. I thought I was going to burn paper money for you when I came to the villa this time."
The third elder glared at Xiao Yi, knowing that Xiao Yi was joking. He was worried about his health. He felt very heavy after Zhuque left and was afraid that his body could not bear it.
It was just a different way of expression. The third elder was also used to Xiao Yi's unreliable way of speaking. If Xiao Yi was honest and polite here, he would feel uncomfortable.
"My old bones are still strong. You owe me a disciple, and I'm waiting for you to find it back for me. If you can't, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost."
"Come on... good people usually go to heaven, and bad people become ghosts. I guess you are not qualified enough."
"You just know how to talk nonsense. Well, you came to me, it shouldn't be to make fun of me."
Xiao Yi chuckled. The third elder was in good health, at least in this state. Xiao Yi had also heard about some changes in the third elder's affairs.
After all, Suzaku was the person closest to him. If Suzaku left, it would be impossible for him to have no influence at all. People are not as ruthless as grass and trees, let alone people like the Third Elder.
He just didn't say it out loud, because he didn't want his own affairs and feelings to involve others. Xiao Yi understood this very well, and he told the third elder.
"Of course, my time is very precious, so I don't have time to argue with you here, and you are no match for me."
"You, you, I have found the things you are looking for in advance. These are the only things that are recorded in writing."
The third elder pointed at the bookcase and said that Xiao Yi had sent a message before, asking the third elder to help investigate matters about the ninja group, and the third elder was already ready.
There are several books on the desk, all of which have clear records. However, the third elder has never heard of any signs of the activities of the ninja group in the past many years. There are only some fragments of records in previous books.
"Why do you want to check the ninja group? This is an organization in name only. As an old man, I have never seen anyone in this ninja group."
Xiao Yi took these books and quickly read them all at a glance. The records above were very fragmentary, and there were basically no valuable clues. These were not enough to find out the full picture of the Ninja Regiment.
