Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 667 Detention
When several people heard this remark, they were all resentful, but they dared not speak out.

The man with gray temples said: "We have stayed on this island for decades, and we usually hunt monsters in the sea for a living. Many chambers of commerce on the pier know our identity. If you don't believe me, fellow Taoists, just ask."

"Hand over your storage bags, I want to verify my identity."

Hearing this, Xiao Mobai couldn't bear it anymore, and said loudly: "Our fishing team has been at this wharf in Jining Island for more than [-] years. Everyone knows that you have only been here in Jining Island for less than half a year. Why are you searching us? The world has never heard of a place where a monk’s personal belongings can be searched arbitrarily.”

The man in the guard said: "I am guarding this city wall according to the alliance law. Now I suspect that you are the remnants of the Demon Sect. I want to interrogate you. If you resist, you will bear the consequences. Come and take these people away."

"Yes." A dozen or so figures at the side flickered and surrounded them. The piercing crossbow in their hands shone with dazzling light, condensed arrows, and aimed at them.

Seeing this change, several people's complexions changed drastically, and they looked at each other at a loss.

Xiao Mobai was furious, and was about to resist, when the gray man beside him pulled his arm: "We are willing to accept the investigation of your alliance to prove our identity."

"Fellow Daoist Yu, go and confiscate their storage bags." The man headed by the guard said.

A monk responded and said, "Please hand over your storage bags."

The man with gray temples was the first to hand in the storage bag at his waist, and several others also handed in the storage bag after seeing this, only Xiao Mo's white face was as sinking as water, motionless, and his eyes were fixed on the leader of the guard cultivator .

"Fellow Daoist, please hand in your storage bag."

"Brother Xiao, the situation is stronger than others, so don't be arrogant!" the man with gray temples whispered beside him.

Xiao Mobai slowly eased the storage bag on his waist and handed it to the man.

"Fellow daoists, please come with us." The guard surnamed Yu said after confiscating the storage bags of several people.

Several people turned around and followed him. There were three monks on each side escorting them. A group of people came to a huge light curtain. The leader waved his hand, and the talisman disappeared into the room.

Not long after, a gap was formed in the light curtain, and everyone rushed in, and came to a hall, where several men were sitting at the desk inside.

The man surnamed Yu led them to another man, and said, "Fang Daoyou, these are some unidentified monks detained by our team, we need to investigate."

The man surnamed Fang glanced at several people: "I know."

"Okay, then I'll take my leave first, this is their storage bag." The man surnamed Yu said, handed him a few storage bags, and went straight out of the hall.

The man surnamed Fang took out the file and asked, "Where are you from?"

Several people answered one by one.

"You say it's a casual cultivator, who can prove it?"

The man with gray temples said: "The people in the Baoyuan Chamber of Commerce Property Management Pavilion can confirm that we bought fishing boats from their Chamber of Commerce, and they have been stored in their Property Management Pavilion for repairs and maintenance for decades."

"What is your purpose for coming here this time?"

"I originally wanted to go out to sea to hunt monsters, but the monks of the Property Management Pavilion suggested that we should not go out to sea to hunt during this time, so we didn't go out."

The man surnamed Fang cross-examined many questions, and after recording the files one by one, he finally said: "We will send someone to find out your specific identities, and wait here for a while. Innocent, return the storage bag when the time comes, please come with me!"

Several people followed him out of the hall, came to a cyan light curtain, handed Zhang Talisman in, and soon, the light curtain melted, and everyone entered the inner room.

Inside is a flat and spacious land, covering an area of ​​about several kilometers in size, with rows of houses neatly arranged.

There is a majestic hall in the center, and the man surnamed Fang led them to a wooden house in the northwest corner: "I am wronged and rest in this house for a few days, and we will send you out after we find out your identities. One thing, I want to remind you, you can practice here with peace of mind, don't make trouble, or you will bear the consequences."

After all, he ignored them and left.

Several people entered the room, and fell into dead silence for a while.

"These bastards are too arrogant. Now I wish the Mubei coalition forces would go south, and see if they can still be so arrogant?" one said through gritted teeth.

"Speak softly, be careful that the walls have ears." The grey-haired man's complexion changed slightly and he said in a low voice, "Now people are using knives and I'm fish, so I can only endure it for a while."

Xiao Mobai said nothing, his fists were slightly clenched, and his eyes were sharp.

At night, when several people were bored, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

Several people looked at each other with happy expressions on their faces. They thought they were monks guarding the pier, and after finding out their identities, they let themselves and others go back.

Xiao Mobai got up and opened the door, but saw two men standing outside, one was tall and tall, the other had a broad forehead and broad face.

"Feng Daoyou, Chen Daoyou, why are you here?" Xiao Mobai said in surprise when he saw that it was the two of them.

"Just like you, they invited you to sleep here." The man with the broad forehead and broad face said angrily.

"Please come in quickly." Xiao Mobai said, and the three of them entered the room, and they also saluted with several others.

"Feng Daoyou, Chen Daoyou, why are you two here?" Xiao Mobai asked.

The burly man said: "Last month, my fleet went out to hunt monsters. When they came back, they interrogated us. They insisted that our identity was unclear, and they forcibly seized our fishing boat and storage bags, and brought us here. gone."

The man with a wide forehead and a broad face said: "At that time, my fleet was preparing to go to sea, and they deliberately made things difficult for them to interrogate me. In the end, after a few replies, they seized the boat and storage bags and escorted them here under the pretext of being unknown. What about you, Fellow Daoist Xiao! What's going on?"

Xiao Mobai said: "We were about to go out of the city, and they proposed to search our storage bags. I couldn't calm down. I said a few words of justice, and they brought them here. If there was no fellow Daoist Wang to stop me at that time, I definitely wouldn't have been subject to this. Bad breath."

The burly man sighed: "Fortunately, Fellow Daoist Wang stopped you. If you really fought against them, the consequences would be unimaginable. I saw with my own eyes that Fellow Daoist Xun Tianyuan fought against them because he didn't feel that they were domineering, and he was killed on the spot." Killed."

The man with a broad forehead and a broad face said angrily: "These bastards are used to being domineering. They don't pay attention to us people at all. They kill them as soon as they say they want to, and they shut them down when they say they want to. What are the remnants of the demon sect? They are just a tool for them to make money. In other words, seven out of ten of our fishing teams were imprisoned by them under clever pretexts, and the fishing boats and storage bags naturally went into their pockets. Now I only hope that Yu Mubei's alliance army will go south as soon as possible, and it is best to kill these bastards." Xiao Mobai said: "By the way, how do you know that we have been imprisoned here?"

"This place is so big. The people here are all unlucky people. The storage bags were taken away by them, and they have nothing to do all day. We usually chat and play games together. Today, I heard that another team has been imprisoned. We just inquired and found out It’s Fellow Daoist Xiao, so come and have a look.”

"Oh." Xiao Mobai nodded and said, "I wonder how long the two fellow daoists have been here?"

"We've been locked up for almost a month."

"So long?" Xiao Mobai frowned slightly: "Haven't they investigated clearly?"

The wide-faced man couldn't help cursing: "Their investigation is just an excuse, and the purpose is not to make money. The longest detention here has been for nearly three months. I don't think they plan to let us go." out."

The burly man said: "Now we have fish on the chopping board, whether we can go out from here depends on his mood."

Xiao Mobai was silent, the three chatted for a while, and the two left.

More than ten days passed in a flash. On this day, Xiao Mobai and others were sitting cross-legged in the room, when a ray of light shot from outside, a man with a leopard head and ape arms appeared, it was the man surnamed Fang.

He pushed the door straight in, glanced at the few people, and asked, "Who is Xiao Mobai?"

Several people looked at each other, they all looked surprised, Xiao Mobai got up and said: "I am, I don't know what's going on with you?"

"Come with me!" said the man, turning and walking away.

Xiao Mobai glanced at a few people, and followed behind them, the two escaped from the light, went straight out of the light curtain, and came to a majestic hall, which was exactly the hall they entered when they entered.

The two entered the hall and came to a desk, beside which stood a man with a fair complexion.

"Friend Wang Dao, someone brought it here."

The white-faced man glanced at him, and said with a smile, "Daoist Xiao, I haven't seen you for many years, are you here all right?"

Xiao Mobai was surprised in his heart, because he had never seen this person before, so he didn't know where he said that, but it was inconvenient for him to ask more about the current situation, so he just nodded slightly.

"This is your storage bag. Your identity has been found out, and it will be returned to its original owner. You can leave." The man surnamed Fang said, flipped over in his hand, and handed him a storage bag and a paper file: " Sign it and draw a bet!"

Xiao Mobai did as he said, and took back his storage bag.

"Fang Daoyou, thank you very much. Xiao Daoyou, let's go!" said the white-faced man, and the two of them left the room, and the light rose.

"Dare to ask your friend's name, but I really don't remember where I met you." The two walked side by side, Xiao Mobai looked at the man and asked.

"My lord, Wang Xianye, although he has never met fellow daoist Xiao before, he has been famous for a long time! To tell the truth, this time I was entrusted by someone to come here to release fellow daoist Xiao on bail."

"I don't know who the fellow daoist is entrusted by?"

"Fellow Daoist Zhang Xuanye and fellow Daoist Xiao must be acquainted if they want to come here. After he heard that Fellow Daoist was imprisoned, please ask me to come forward and release Fellow Daoist on bail."

"It turned out to be Brother Zhang." Xiao Mobai suddenly said: "I have another unfeeling request, and I hope fellow Taoists will fulfill it."

Wang Xianye said: "I know what fellow daoists are doing. They want me to bail out the other fellow daoists who are in your fishing team! Don't be afraid of fellow daoist jokes. I don't have the face to bail so many people. This matter should be discussed in the long term. Fellow Daoist, first follow me to meet with Zhang Daoyou before making a plan!"
