Ye Li was very fast and arrived at the north gate in no time.
He had no intention of intercepting the other party here because he was not sure whether Shu Lao Si had left the city.
As far as he knew, these gangs that had been entrenched in the city for a long time usually controlled the secret passages out of the city. After the other party robbed something, in order to prevent others from chasing them, they would most likely leave the city through the secret passages. It would be of no use for him to guard the north gate.
After thinking about it, Ye Li went straight through the city gate and ran towards Laoshu Ridge. As the saying goes, you can move the person but not the nest. After stealing things, Lao Si will definitely return to his nest. It should be his best choice to go to Laoshu Ridge and wait for the other party.
Following the old woman's instructions, we continued north along the road and soon saw a low hill shaped like a rat's head not far from the road.
In the moonlight, Ye Li vaguely saw a row of houses in the open space next to the hill. It looked like a small village.
After finding the target, Ye Li's speed increased even more. The Wind Ring turned him into a gust of breeze, blowing towards the row of houses under Laoshu Ridge.
Soon, he arrived at the village, and it was indeed an abandoned village as the old woman said.
Except for a few, the other houses in the row in front are dilapidated and completely uninhabitable.
Of course if the Gold and Silver Gang members lived here, then obviously they must be living in intact houses.
Ye Li observed the village in the moonlight. Except for a thatched cottage in the middle of the village which still had a light on, all other houses were in darkness.
It was already late at this time. In Ye Li's opinion, most of the members of the Gold and Silver Gang were probably already asleep.
He did not use his spiritual power. After all, he was not sure whether there was no talisman master here.
Although using spiritual power to explore this place is very fast, once he is discovered and the alarm is sounded, he will be exposed.
Of course, he was not afraid of encountering danger, but he was worried that if Rat Old Fourth saw any unusual movement in the village from a distance, he might not come back, and then he would not be able to get the old woman's things.
After all, his mission was not to eradicate the Gold and Silver Gang, but to retrieve the bag for the old woman.
With a stretch of his body, Ye Li turned into a wisp of breeze and quietly slipped into the village.
After entering the abandoned village, there was silence all around, and there was no sound at all coming from the houses on all sides.
Ye Li checked a few houses casually and found that except for the abandoned dilapidated house, there was no movement in the other intact houses. It seemed that even if there were people inside, they should have fallen asleep.
After thinking about it, he decided to go directly to the small house in the middle of the village where the lights were still on. Since this was the lair of the Gold and Silver Gang, the people in the house must also be members of the Gold and Silver Gang. If all else fails, he can first control the people inside and then ask them.
Ye Li walked towards the small house in the middle quietly, but what puzzled him was that although there was light coming from the wooden house in the middle, it seemed as if no one was there. It was as quiet as the other houses.
Just as he was wondering, suddenly there was a loud voice coming from the hut.
All I heard was a slightly hoarse male voice saying, "Old Third, let me tell you, I went to the city to scout for prey in the middle of the night. On the way, I passed by Guozigou. Guess who I saw?"
The sudden sound startled Ye Li, and he quickly lowered his body and slowed down his pace.
Then another voice was heard in the room: "Second brother, who did you see in Guozigou?"
The voice of the man called the second brother rose again, and said a little mysteriously: "I saw Master Duan Qianye!"
“Master Duan Qianye!
What was he doing in such a remote place like Guozigou in the middle of the night? "
Ye Li slowly approached the wooden house while listening to the conversation between the two. Everyone is curious, and Ye Li couldn't help but be attracted by the content of their conversation.
After the person called "Third Brother" asked, "Second Brother" smiled lightly and said, "Hey, Master Duan Qianye is in Guozigou to meet two men in black robes.
Let me tell you, those two men in black are from a mysterious organization, and this organization is..."
Having said this, the voice of the "second brother" suddenly became low, as if he was whispering to the "third brother".
When Ye Li heard the words "mysterious organization", his heart was suddenly shocked. He pricked up his ears unconsciously and tried to hear the whispers of the people inside.
However, just when his attention was all focused on the words from his "Second Brother's" mouth, several sounds of breaking wind suddenly appeared behind Ye Li.
Startled, Ye Li immediately realized that someone was attacking him. It was too late to turn around to check, so he suddenly released his spiritual power, trying to see clearly the situation behind him.
However, when he took a closer look, he was even more shocked, because three people were already standing one step behind him, without him noticing.
The three men did not use talismans to attack him, but talisman soldiers.
In other words, these three people were not spiritual talisman masters at all, but ordinary martial talisman masters. This made Ye Li feel incredible. Although he did not deliberately release his spiritual power, with his powerful spiritual power, it was impossible for someone to walk behind him without him feeling anything.
At this moment, under the deliberate exploration of his soul power, the three people who attacked him from behind also seemed a little blurry. He could vaguely see that there seemed to be a cover that trapped the three people inside, which could block most of his spiritual power.
If it were an ordinary spiritual talisman master, it would be almost impossible to avoid the sneak attack from the martial talisman master at such a close distance. Even with Ye Li's talisman drawing speed, he would not have time to block it.
The martial talisman masters were proficient in fighting skills. The three talisman swords of the three men quickly slashed towards Ye Li in three directions. At this time, it was too late to draw talismans to resist.
However, there was no panic on Ye Li's face, nor did he make any movements, as if he was waiting for the three swords to attack him.
Just when the sword was about to hit him, a spiritual shield suddenly appeared around Ye Li's body. At the critical moment when he was attacked, he injected spiritual energy into the heart-protecting mirror on his chest in time.
The shield of the heart-protecting mirror can withstand ordinary talisman attacks below the middle stage of the Spirit Sea period, not to mention the slashing attacks of several martial talisman masters.
Seeing that their sneak attack was about to succeed, the three men smiled smugly on their faces, but the sudden appearance of the shield shattered their dreams.
Only three muffled "bang bang bang" sounds were heard, and the three swords hit Ye Li's shield at the same time and were completely blocked.
Before the three of them could react, Ye Li had already turned around, and a gray talisman that was invisible to ordinary people appeared in his hand.
Accompanied by a terrifying crow's cry, the three of them suddenly seemed to have seen the most terrifying scene in their lives, and they stood there trembling.
