Bai Yang sighed and said slowly, "The decline of the family is not due to business or interpersonal relationships. As the saying goes, there are spirits in the mountains, and people from all directions come to worship them. The biggest decline of our family was the death of our ancestor. Although I am also level seven now, I don't have much time left. And you younger generations like to cheat each other, and none of you likes to practice. In another hundred years, when I leave this world, will the Sikong family still exist?"
The middle-aged man immediately lowered his head and stopped talking.
In the family, there are very few young people who like to practice cultivation, so much so that they can't even deal with a stranger. This is the fault of all of them.
He lowered his head and said with deep thought, "Grandfather, I also want to rectify the family tradition, but it is too difficult. Unless you come forward in person, it is really helpless for the family to rely on my own strength."
"Dak is my son. I disciplined him personally. I will train him specifically in the future."
The old man glanced at the middle-aged man and snorted, "You have ten sons, and except for Dake, none of the others are good. Don't think I don't know what caused this incident. It's because Duke and Xun, two bastards, are against a person who owns a level 6 wizard tower alone. Where are their brains?"
…
In summer, the sun bakes the earth and it is hot inside and outside the city.
Watsonburg seems peaceful, even prosperous, but every day people die in the dark corners.
A woman seemed calm but was walking slowly on the street in a panic, looking back from time to time.
Soon, we arrived at the largest Azure Drinks Shop on Tai Luo Street.
As soon as she entered the store, she looked around vigilantly. She went to the back and quickly changed into the clerk's clothes while putting her things away.
She touched her cuffs and found a small package there. Someone had threatened her family and asked him to put it in the water in the store.
She looked up and saw the kind shop owner. She felt a little guilty, but when she thought of her family, she was ready to harden her heart. No one else mattered, her family was the most important. Besides, the man said that this was not a fatal poison and would not kill people. Thinking of this, she became nervous, but also calmed down a little.
Just then, a small black bug flew past his eyes and landed on his head without her noticing.
…
Dole Wizard Tower.
Standing on the top of the wizard tower, Dole suddenly turned his gaze and looked towards Too Many Streets. His gaze seemed to penetrate everything and fell on the Azure Beverage Shop.
Dolai usually has multiple perspectives: the perspective of the Eye of the Storm, which monitors the environment around the Wizard Tower at any time; the perspective of the Black Corpse Worm, which is focused on several important positions; and even the perspective of the Sky Frost Worm.
The Sky Frost Worm has been in my hands since I got it from the ruins. I have been cultivating it until today. It took me three months to breed it to several thousand. This thing is more difficult to cultivate than the Black Corpse Worm.
He kept a few for himself and gave all the others to Ashe.
At this time, Ashe was in the Tower of Babel, studying bloodlines, trying to make some potions for her family, and cultivating these little things.
The Sky Frost Bug was born with a hint of the aura of ice rules. Combined with the fragments of wind rules given to them by Elder Shangfeng, it could be said that the two of them had no bottlenecks at all in their cultivation.
Although the Sky Frost Worms are cold-type creatures, they like sunlight. At this moment, a group of Sky Frost Worms are flying in the sky above the Wizard Tower. Because of the coverage of the Wizard Tower, no one noticed the abnormality here.
The reason why Dolai suddenly woke up was that the Xuanshi worm that was ambushing in the Azure Beverage Shop discovered a powerful toxin and woke up from its meditation.
His gaze switched to the store and he soon saw his target, a woman, a waitress in the store, but on her cuffs was a very powerful poison.
Is this a spy sent by the enemy?
Or being threatened?
Dole immediately sent a message to Gretel, asking him to handle the matter.
The business of the Azure Beverage Shop had already declined due to the Langte family. If any unknown factors arise again, the business would probably be gone.
…
Walking on the street, Gretel's face was very gloomy.
Someone wants to poison the store. Although this is not new, it is not the first time. The person who did it last time has disappeared, and the people behind him have also been sunk in an unknown river outside the city. Now someone else jumps out at this critical juncture. It's really damn it. It's probably done by that family.
I didn't want to fall out with him, but now it seems that I have no choice but to show my ruthless approach.
Arriving at the store entrance, he took three or two steps into the kitchen.
At this moment, he saw a small flying insect flying over and landing on his shoulder.
"Who is it?" he asked the little fly.
The kitchen is not big and can be operated by three or two people. Most of the waiters are placed outside, so there are not many people in the back.
Gretel came quietly, but those people were busy and didn't notice his presence.
But the next moment, Gretel saw the person who was preparing to poison, because he saw that the woman was secretly pouring something into the water. She was very careful, and in order to avoid being seen, she secretly scraped a little at a time with her fingernails, doing it very covertly.
When Gretel looked at her, she was scraping the poison with her fingernails.
Seeing this, Gretel suddenly became angry.
He walked slowly over to the woman.
The woman didn't know there was someone nearby. She was still working on it when she heard a voice from the side, "What kind of poison is this?"
She answered subconsciously, "I don't know, that person gave it to me."
But after she finished speaking, she immediately turned her head away with a look of horror in her eyes.
Gretel's face was gloomy and she stared at the woman with terrifying eyes.
He knew the woman's identity and had already sent a message to ask people to check on her family situation.
He snorted coldly and said, "You don't have to do it anymore. Come with me to the fifth floor."
…
In a very small yard, a man and a woman were lying in a pool of blood. Two men in ordinary black clothes stood beside them, looking at them with a sneer.
After they finished their confession, they waited for a while in order to paralyze the woman, and then killed her parents long after he left.
After the two of them finished all this, they cleaned up the traces and prepared to leave.
The gate of the small courtyard opened, and the two were about to go out, but they saw a group of more than ten people standing at the gate of the small courtyard, six or seven of them were holding the empire's official crossbows in their hands.
The two men in black were stunned.
…
Dolai came down from the wizard tower and came to the door of the innermost room on the first floor.
He pushed the door open and walked in, and Gretel's figure had her back to him.
Hearing the movement behind him, he turned around, looked at Duolai, and said calmly, "We have found out that it was done by the Langte family, but their family did not do it directly. Instead, they asked a small family named Iris to do it. That is their affiliated family."
Dolai nodded and said expressionlessly, "It's enough to know who did it. Send these people to the police station."
Gretel was a little surprised, "You?"
Dolai looked at him, his expression slightly softened. "Let the police station help us deal with the Langte family and tie their hands. Since the Langte family wants to attack us, we naturally cannot let them do what they want. I will go to the market tomorrow to buy some wine bugs, and we will also make wine ourselves."
Gretel looked calm, as if he had expected Dolai to do this. He nodded and said, "I'll find someone to mess with their business. Since the Langte family likes to play dirty, let's all try and see who can outsmart the other."
