Wu Zhizai pointed to his painting on the table and explained to the two, "Sister Lan Ruo, the island where your clan lives has a group of sea monsters on the periphery. Sea monsters are huge, so most of the places they live in can only be in the deep sea. Then the island where Sister Lan Ruo's family lives should be an island in the middle of the sea, surrounded by extremely deep seas. Also, there are no other islands nearby, otherwise the Kraken will affect the inhabitants of the nearby islands. I don't think Sister Lan Ruo's clan will do this. ”

Lan Ruo nodded and said, "That's right, I used to go to sea and couldn't see the bottom of the sea at all. And with my ability, I can't swim that deep. My people have no quarrel with the world, and they have never wanted to hurt others. If there are inhabitants in the nearby sea, they will definitely not let the sea monster near the sea. ”

Wu Zhizai continued: "Since there are no islands in the nearby waters, there is no other person to live. Then the pirates who went to besiege Lan Ruo's sister clan at that time had dozens of ships. These dozens of ships won't be all pirates, I think some of them are supply ships, just like a march to war will have logistical supplies to you. ”

Wu Zhizai glanced at the two of them and said, "If my analysis is correct, the distance between the island where Sister Lan Ruo's family lives and the land is very, very far away. If there is no boat to go to sea, it is simply unrealistic for Sister Lan Ruo to swim alone to find the clansmen. Also, Sister Lan Ruo's clan has left the original island. Sister Lan Ruo, do you know where your people will retreat?"

Lan Ruo shook her head, her eyes gloomy, "I don't know, my father didn't tell me that there are other islands." ”

Wu Zhizai let out a "hmm" and said, "Sister Lan Ruo, it is not difficult to find the island where your clan lived before. This attack on your islands by pirates must have spread among the pirates. I think that since that island is the island where your Shark Spirit Imperial Family lives, it must be a rich island, and the pirates will not disperse there, they will choose to use this as a stronghold. ”

Su Xiaowen said: "It is also possible to be snatched down by the people of the Nanzi Dynasty." ”

Wu Zhizai shook his head and said, "Pirates have existed for many years, but the navy of the Nanzi Dynasty has not been able to wipe them out. The sea is vast, and pirates roam the sea all year round. The navy of the Nanzi Dynasty may not be able to defeat them. In the war with the pirates outside such a distant sea, once the supply behind is cut off by the pirates, then the troops in the front can only wait for death. In order to prevent the pirates from cutting off the supply ships, then they had to send ships to escort them. Sending ships to escort all the way would have to send another army and spend a lot of money. It is precisely because of this that piracy has always been so rampant. ”

Su Xiaowen was pleased, this kind of self-confidence, this kind of knowledge, worthy of being the son of a general.

Lan Ruo said curiously: "Xiao Zai, how do you know this?"

Wu Zhizai grinned and said, "I used to study in the mansion, read some books on marching and fighting, and knew some military knowledge. As long as you think about the situation of pirates, it is not difficult to find the problem. I think that if we want to find the Shark Spirit Royalty, we must first return to that island. By the way, Sister Lan Ruo, what is the name of the island you live on?"

Lan Ruo said: "When we lived there, it was called 'Bilai Island'. It's just that now it's occupied by pirates, and I don't know what it will be called. ”

Wu Zhizai said: "Let's go to Bilai Island first, and then see if there are any clues left by your clansmen, and then make plans." But now that it's winter, Brother Xiaowen is injured again, I think we have to recuperate here for a while, and when Brother Xiaowen's injury is healed, we will go on the road again. ”

Lan Ruo has no opinion, she has unconditional trust in Wu Zhizai's arrangement. At the same time, I felt very guilty in my heart, obviously I wanted to go back to my clansmen, but I was like a headless fly, and I didn't know what to do.

Now that Su Xiaowen is inconvenient to move, he can take this opportunity to improve his spiritual power. It's just that he doesn't know where to get this cultivation method.

Wu Zhizai told Su Xiaowen about his idea, and Su Xiaowen said: "The rich people will have a place to hide books, and where they hide books, there may be books about cultivation. ”

Wu Zhizai patted his forehead, "Yes, how could I not have thought of it, I was still a powerful child before." Brother Xiaowen, you wait, I'll go to those rich people's mansions at night to have a look. ”

Su Xiaowen nodded, he didn't stop it, because he knew. No one can find Wu Zhizai, and even if they do, they can't catch him. It's a big deal that your whereabouts are exposed, just get out of here.

Before choosing which mansion to go to, Wu Zhizai also did an investigation in advance. To enter those powerful areas, in order to avoid being expelled by others, Wu Zhizai also deliberately made a rather luxurious clothes. In this regard, Wu Zhizai is still a little distressed. The price of this dress was enough for Lan Ruo to cry twice, and she barely collected enough pearls to redeem them.

After entering the rich area, Wu Zhizai found that there was really no need for him to come over to investigate. The mansions here are not from the official family, or from the great family or some wealthy merchants.

The mansion here is very large for any family. He couldn't get in, and he didn't know what was going on inside. I can only come back at night to search, and if I can't find a place to hide the books once, I will come back next time to find it until I find it.

Wu Zhizai looked down at his gorgeous clothes and sighed, if he resold it second-hand, he would definitely lose a lot of money. After going back, Wu Zhizai told the two of them what he saw.

Lan Ruo said: "This dress doesn't need to be sold, maybe it can be used next time." We're out there now, we have to hide ourselves, this gorgeous costume will definitely be usable. ”

Wu Zhizai said: "I am growing my body now, this dress will soon be unsuitable for wearing, and it will be cumbersome to keep it, so it is better to sell it for some money." ”

Wu Zhizai took off his clothes and sorted them out, and when he went out next time, he would go to the clothing store to sell them.

The night is getting deeper and deeper, and when the time comes, Wu Zhizai changes into a night suit, which is simple, and there is only one layer. Wu Zhizai covered his face and head, pushed open the window, and the street in the distance was empty, so he flew out. He didn't dare to use teleportation, in this world, so far he is the only one who has this kind of spiritual method, if people find out, it must be him Wu Zhizai. Therefore, he can only fly with the Wind Spirit Method, and even if he is discovered, he is just a certain Wind Spirit Person.

Wu Zhizai flew up to the roof of the building and stepped on it gently. In the distance, most of the lights in the civilian area have been extinguished, and only a few are still a little on fire.

There was no one around, and Wu Zhizai was still a little worried at first, in a poor area like a place where the government did not want to govern, there would definitely be many people coming out to do activities at night. But now it seems that no matter what kind of person they are, they still have to sleep most nights.

Wu Zhizai drove the demon spirit and began to teleport. In the blink of an eye, you have arrived at a mansion in a wealthy area. Since Wu Zhizai did not enter through the main entrance, he didn't know whose mansion this was.

Two people walked towards him, and Wu Zhizai had already shot out the spirit method and marked it the moment his feet hit the ground. As soon as he saw the arrival, Wu Zhizai had disappeared without a trace.

Wu Zhizai knew that the person with the largest collection of books was the head of the family in the courtyard of such a large family. Wu Zhizai didn't want to look for it from room to room like a headless fly, so he drove the demon spirit and went to the roof in an instant. Looking down from a high vantage point, he saw the largest house in the house, thinking that it must be where the head of the family lived.

Suddenly, in the moonlight in the distance, a figure was jumping. Wu Zhizai was startled, and immediately lay down, thinking that the other party had discovered him.

After lying down, I thought about it for a while, the figure was far away, it should be in another mansion. It seems that like himself, he came to these big families to "pick" things.

Wu Zhizai was embarrassed, it was the first time he did this kind of thing of stealing chickens and touching dogs, and he could still meet his "peers". It's normal for someone to steal overnight. So in these big households, there will be guards patrolling at night. Ordinary thieves would never dare to come in, it seems that the figure in the moonlight is not weak in spiritual power.

Although that person's spiritual power is not weak, Wu Zhizai thinks that compared to himself, he is still more powerful. His demon spirit is different from ordinary people, unless it is counteracted by spiritual magic, his demon spirit will never be sensed. "Picking" things at night is obviously better than yourself.

Suddenly, a group of people ran in the direction of Wu Zhizai. Wu Zhizai was startled, could it be that he was seen? Wu Zhizai thought that this was impossible, and when he went to the top of the building, there was no one patrolling below.

An Youming said: "Wu Zhizai, the method of driving the soul lock is scattered around your body. ”

Wu Zhizai obediently did so, and where the method of locking the spirit was covered, two dots floated up. One is cyan and the other is blue, this is the Wood Spirit Method and the Thunder Spirit Method. It appears that there are two people patrolling the neighborhood, or more than two people. When he was discovered, he must have stepped on a certain sensing point.

So that's the case, in this mansion, there are actually people who will use the spirit method to put it in an inconspicuous place, which is exactly the same as An Youming's previous ambush with the method of destroying the spirit. As soon as someone passes by, the guards can sense movement.

But come to think of it, it's not a big deal. As a guard, it is normal to set up a sensing point.

Wu Zhizai didn't dare to drive the demon spirit forward, he would definitely be discovered. The guards in the mansion all gathered, and Wu Zhizai had no other way than to retreat first.

Among the guards, someone flew up, but in front of him, there was not a single figure. There was silence all around, no sound, as if no one had ever been here. The leader of the guard asked the subordinate who had made the report, and the subordinate swore frankly that someone must have come in, and there was absolutely no mistake.

Wu Zhizai wanted to go back, but he was unwilling in his heart. An Youming whispered: "Wu Zhizai, don't think about it, now these guards are on guard, and they have set up sensing points in several places. Now there are more and more sensing points, and if you make the slightest move, they will find you. ”

Wu Zhizai's smile was evil, An Youming didn't emerge, he couldn't see it, but he could tell it by listening to the voice.

An Youming hurriedly said: "Wu Zhizai, what are you going to do? ”

Wu Zhizai's evil smell became even heavier, "Just ask me in this world, if I don't mess around, who else will mess around." ”
