Hearing the other party confirm his guess, Ye Li seemed to see the progress of the matter, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"So, you must have seen the things in the Broken Golden Gate ruins?"
Ye Li spoke again.
Zhang Qiaozi heard this, but this time he shook his head and said, "No, in fact, none of us have seen the remains of Broken Golden Gate.
When the Jinshan Gang was first established, Duanjinmen had already been destroyed.
Before its demise, Duanjinmen might have experienced a great war, and the entire sect’s base had already been in ruins.
Then one year, heavy rains lasted for 49 days. Mountain torrents broke out and mud and rock flows hit the entire valley area, completely destroying the remains of Duanjinmen.
It was after that that the Kinmen Gang entered the Kinmen Mountains and established their sect there.
They dug out the remains of Broken Kinmen along with the mud and rocks, and then cleared them all away. Of course, there may be some valuable things in the ruins, but these things are only known by the top leaders of Kinmen Mountain. I was just a young gang member of a very low level back then."
Upon hearing this, Ye Li hurriedly asked, "So, do you know where the top leaders of the Jinshan Gang went after it was disbanded?"
Zhang Qiaozi heard this and said, "The core of the Jinshan Gang was originally a family whose surname was Guo. The last leader of the gang was Guo Tianyu.
After the gang was disbanded, Guo Tianyu took most of the core gang members and left Kinmen Mountain, and then established a family next to Sifang Lake, thousands of miles away from here.
This family is now the Guo family of Sifang Lake, which is only at the fourth rank level.
If we talk about the Duanjinmen, I think the Guo family should be the one that knows the most about it. After all, the things in the ruins of Duanjinmen were all excavated by their family.
Moreover, the people of the Guo family know best what happened during the first Jinshan Gang period after entering Jinmen Mountain. After all, it was their ancestor Guo Wansheng who founded the Jinshan Gang. "
Ye Li silently wrote down what Zhang Qiaozi said. Judging from the current clues, if he wanted to find out information about Duan Jinmen, he had to go find the person from the Guo family who was helping Jinshan first.
"The Guo family lives near Sifang Lake, right? If I go there now, I should be able to find the family's residence, right?"
Ye Li once again confirmed the accuracy of the information with Zhang Qiaozi. Zhang Qiaozi nodded and said, "It should be possible to find it. Their family would not be destroyed so quickly.
The country is near Sifang Lake. If you go there and ask the locals, you will definitely be able to find them."
After hearing Zhang Qiaozi's affirmative answer, Ye Li's face showed satisfaction.
"Okay, I have basically finished asking all the questions I want to ask. The last question is, where did the spell you taught Zhu Li come from?"
Ye Li looked at Zhang Qiaozi and asked the last question.
Zhang Qiaozi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then he said: "This is a spell that was circulated in the Jinshan Gang back then. It is not something profound, it is just a mysterious spell.
Any disciple of the Jinshan Gang can learn this spell, so I also learned it.
Back then, all of us disciples of the Jinshan Clan mastered this spell. Once a war broke out, we disciples of the Jinshan Clan could unleash a vast array of golden blades, forming a huge blade net with astonishing power."
As Zhang Qiaozi spoke, a look of nostalgia appeared in his eyes, and it was obvious that he was also thinking of the scenes when he was young.
After knowing that this talisman came from Jinshan Gang, Ye Li also confirmed one thing, that is, there might be a connection between Jinshan Gang and Duanjinmen, or it is possible that Jinshan Gang once found something related to the divine talisman that cuts the sky and the earth from the Duanjinmen ruins.
All in all, the Guo family is well worth Ye Li's investigation.
After figuring out these things, Ye Li had no intention of disturbing Zhang Qiaozi anymore. After all, the other party had chosen to retire and no longer care about the affairs of the world. He just considered himself an ordinary woodcutter, so there was no need for him to disturb him too much.
The information the other party had provided was already very useful, and Ye Li himself was very satisfied with it.
He clasped his fists and thanked Zhang Qiaozi. Zhang Qiaozi quickly returned the greeting, saying "I dare not" repeatedly. In his opinion, Ye Li's very polite attitude really made him a little uncomfortable.
After all, most of the powerful and unfamiliar talisman masters in the world are not so easy to talk to.
After leaving Zhang Qiaozi's residence, Zhu Li still followed Ye Li.
Ye Li said: "Zhu Li, you can go back now. I will go to Sifang Lake to ask the people of the Guo family myself."
After saying that, Ye Li flew up directly, and Xiao Qing also fell from the sky and joined Ye Li.
Seeing Ye Li fly to a blue phoenix and turn into a blue stream of light and disappear into the sky, Zhu Li's eyes showed shock and envy.
Sitting on Xiaoqing's back, Ye Li determined the location of Sifang Lake according to the map, and then commanded Xiaoqing to fly towards the direction of Sifang Lake.
Xiaoqing flew very fast and arrived at the area near Sifang Lake in no time. Ye Li didn't know where the Guo family was, so he could only find a way to inquire in the nearby towns.
Soon, Ye Li rode Xiaoqing to a nearby town.
After letting Xiaoqing leave first, Ye Li landed around the town and then walked towards the town.
After all, he didn't want to fall from the sky in a too shocking way, as that would attract too much attention.
Now, the areas nearby are considered the key occupied areas of the Tianhun Society, and people from the Tianhun Society may appear anywhere at any time.
After entering the city, Ye Li randomly found a shop and asked. The Guo family was considered a large family, and the other party quickly told Ye Li the specific location of the Guo family.
Although the Guo family is a fourth-rank family, they did not choose to occupy the city, but instead occupied an entire nearby hill.
The entire top of the hill was surrounded by the Guo family, forming a station similar to a mountain gate.
After knowing the location of the Guo family, Ye Li rode Xiaoqing and quickly arrived at the hill called Yangjiao Peak.
He walked towards the mountain gate on the hill. Two Guo family guards were guarding there, responsible for receiving or stopping climbers.
When the two saw Ye Li going up the mountain wearing a mask, they immediately became alert.
After all, people wearing masks will always attract special attention.
"May I ask what brings you here, Excellency?"
A guard stepped forward and stopped Ye Li.
Ye Li said: "I came here to ask your Guo family about something..."
Before Ye Li could finish his words, a clear and crisp bird cry suddenly sounded in the sky, and a giant eagle descended from the sky and swooped towards its base on the mountain.
