Ye Li waved his hand, and a long and gentle force of wind emanated from it, directly lifting up the knees of the three people who were already half-kneeling.
"No need to bow. Since you are disguised as merchants, you shouldn't kneel like a customer!"
Ye Li said as he walked over to the cloth.
"Yes, sir!"
After hearing what Ye Li said, the three of them quickly stood up and whispered to Ye Li:
"I came here to look for our missing intelligence team. You should be the last people to see them and the ones to receive their last intelligence."
Ye Li said to the three of them.
When the three heard Ye Li's words, the shopkeeper hurriedly said, "Sir, we were indeed the last to see the intelligence team, and we were also the ones who received their last intelligence.
We haven't seen the intelligence team in almost a month, and I reported the matter to the top management when we first realized they were missing."
Ye Li asked: "Where did they disappear? Do you know?"
The shopkeeper glanced at the two shop assistants, thought for a moment, and said, "We don't know that either.
We only knew that the approximate location was near Vulture Peak, but we had no idea when exactly they disappeared or why.
After all, we have no idea about the intelligence team's route of action, and they will only report to us after obtaining useful intelligence.
Therefore, it was only after they disappeared for many days that we felt something was wrong and reported the matter to the alliance.”
The three of them told the whole situation in detail, and Ye Li frowned immediately when he heard it.
Ye Canglong and others suddenly disappeared, but basically no one knew the circumstances of their disappearance.
The clue for you now is that the other party has been to Vulture Peak and may have been near Vulture Peak when he disappeared.
"Besides the clue of Vulture Peak, do you have no other clues?"
Ye Li asked somewhat unwillingly.
After thinking for a while, the three of them said apologetically, "Sir, we really don't have any other clues."
Ye Li pondered for a moment and said, "Where exactly is that Vulture Peak?" Ye Li asked again.
The shopkeeper replied: "Sir, Vulture Peak is the name of a snowy mountain not far from here.
The top of this snowy mountain is shaped a bit like a vulture, so it was given this name.
In fact, this snow mountain is not just one snow mountain. There are many snow mountains standing next to it. That area is a continuous snow peak.”
Ye Li asked: "Why did the intelligence team go there? Did they say anything before?"
The shopkeeper was silent for a while after hearing this, and said, "I don't know the specific reason. They just mentioned that they wanted to go to Vulture Peak, but they didn't say why.
But they were investigating the strange things that happened here recently, so I don’t know if their disappearance is related to the strange things that happened recently.”
When Ye Li heard the word "strange", he was shocked and asked, "What is the strange thing?"
The shopkeeper asked, "Sir, have you found anything strange since you entered the city?"
Hearing the shopkeeper's question, Ye Li was stunned and said, "By the way, I found that there are very few talisman masters in this city!
Did something happen here? Why are there so few Spirit Talisman Masters? Is it because these people are unwilling to come to Galan City?"
The shopkeeper shook his head upon hearing this and said, “Sir, that’s not the case, the number of talisman masters in the city has begun to decrease in a short period of time.
In fact, most of these talisman masters did not leave Galan City, but disappeared inexplicably near Galan City.
No one took it seriously at first. After all, talisman masters were relatively free and liked to move around. Not all of them were willing to stay in one city until the end of their lives.
Therefore, when the number of talisman masters began to decrease, no one paid much attention to it.
Even if a talisman master was found to have suddenly disappeared, it was considered normal by others. After all, talisman masters often went out to explore or hunt for treasure, so it was normal for them to leave without saying goodbye occasionally.
But later on, people suddenly discovered that the number of talisman masters in the city was decreasing.
Generally, talisman masters living in the city will leave the city from time to time to hunt monsters or look for medicinal herbs.
After all, there is no shortage of monsters and medicinal herbs in the snow mountains, so ordinary low-level talisman masters will go in from time to time to look for resources.
Even if you can't use it yourself, you can still sell it.
However, it seemed that because of this reason, the number of talisman masters in the city began to decrease day by day, and soon decreased to the current level.
Recently, the talisman masters in the city have been scared to the point that they dare not leave Galan City. Because of this, the city has been preserved and the number of talisman masters has not continued to decrease.
Ever since this strange incident happened, the intelligence team has begun investigating. They want to find out what exactly happened, so they have been investigating outside for some time.
A few days ago, they happened to mention the Vulture Peak incident, as if they were going to go there to conduct an investigation or something, and then the disappearance incident occurred. Until now, they have not appeared again.
We suspect that their disappearance may be due to some special circumstances, just like other missing persons, but we three cannot explain what these circumstances are. "
The shopkeeper in front of him had already told Ye Li everything he knew, and Ye Li also had a general understanding of the matter.
It seems that Ye Canglong and his team went deep into the snowy mountain area to investigate the disappearance of the talisman master, but in the end, no one knew what happened to them and they disappeared in the snowy mountains.
What Ye Li was most worried about regarding Ye Canglong and the others was that they would encounter a fatal disaster and die outside.
If he really encountered this situation, it would be meaningless even if he found the other party, and he would only find a pile of corpses.
Ye Li hoped that Ye Canglong and the others were just trapped. As long as they were still alive, he would definitely find a way to find them out.
Considering that this was an area belonging to the Great Snow Mountain Cult, Ye Li vaguely felt that this matter might be related to the Tianhun Society.
In order to create human puppets, the Tianhun Society had secretly captured a large number of low- and middle-level talisman masters. These people suddenly disappeared in the world.
An idea came to Ye Li's mind at this moment. Perhaps the disappearance of the talisman master and the intelligence team in Galan City was related to the human puppets of the Tianhun Society.
In other words, Ye Canglong and others might have been captured by the Tianhun Society and eventually turned into human puppets.
Lang Xiaoyao also followed Ye Canglong and his team. Ye Li thought that if Lang Xiaoyao was caught and turned into a human puppet again, he would definitely suffer double the pain.
